Konoha Hypocrite - Chapter 428
Shi Yuyan had a huge body, which led to the blood flowing down the mountain wall after it was crushed by Uchiha Tunan.
The mountain peaks under the night looked like melted candles.
The forest in this era was silent.
Because once it made a sound, it would attract the enemy.
The sticky blood that flowed slowly on the mountain wall was a great supplement for those beasts.
However, because the noise Shi Yuyan made just now was too terrifying, the beasts nearby had already run away.
Only the insects kept pouncing towards the mountain peak, greedily sucking the blood.
Near dawn, Shokaku covered in blood finally climbed to the top of the mountain.
In the dark forest on the top of the mountain, there were pieces of stinky flesh and blood scattered everywhere.
Even the bird smoke rising from the hot spring was dyed red.
Shokaku, who had just climbed to the top of the mountain, saw this scene and swallowed his saliva in fear. Then he gathered his courage and shouted as he searched,
“Mountain God !”
“Mountain God !”
…….
“Smack —“
Shokaku raised his foot and lowered his head to look. He saw the flesh and blood of a stone bird quietly lying under his feet.
However, from the looks of it, this was meat paste to begin with.
He could not help but recall the bloody scene of that towering stone hand crushing a rock bird.
Was this power of a god?
“Gulp —“
If it was said that Shokaku had only been afraid of the so-called mountain god before, then now it had already begun to develop into reverence.
“Huff… huff…”
A strong wind suddenly blew up on the top of the mountain, shaking the branches and leaves of the big tree and making whistling sounds.
It was this strong wind that blew away the mist that shrouded the top of the mountain in an instant.
The sight in front of Shokaku also became clear.
All around, the forest was dense, and the shadows of trees were heavy.
Looking ahead, the dense towering trees blocked the view, only leaving a small gap between the trees, so small that people would almost instinctively ignore it.
But one of the gaps seemed to have magic, attracting Shokaku’s sight.
It was as if the entire world only had a single line of scenery.
Floating on the surface of the water with thin smoke, standing with a straight back.
Looking at that silhouette, it was no different from a human.
This was the man that Koyu spoke of, the Mountain God.
Shokaku pursed his lips, his heart indescribably complicated.
If the other party was just an ordinary human, then he would definitely rush up and skin him alive right now.
However, the other party was a mountain god that could easily crush a monster like Shi Yuyan.
Shokaku shook his head violently, throwing out the wild thoughts in his heart.
Right now, the most important thing was to ask Mountain God not to let Koyu be a sacrifice.
In the next moment, Shokaku took a deep breath and ran towards the direction of his back.
When he came to the edge of the hot spring, he directly knelt on the ground and slammed his head on the ground, saying excitedly,
“Mountain God, please allow me to replace Koyu as your sacrifice.”
Uchiha Tunan, who had the terrifying perception ability, knew everything about these primitive people at the foot of the mountain.
Naturally, he also knew what this young primitive man behind him was doing.
Originally, Uchiha Tunan did not intend to pay attention to these primitive people.
But he did not expect that they were actually preparing to worship him as a god.
This was interesting.
Although Uchiha Tunan was far from becoming a god, becoming a god could be said to be one of Uchiha Tunan’s final goals.
It was not bad to use these primitive people to practice.
Shokaku put his head on the ground and waited for a long time.
Finally, a magnetic voice rang out from the calm surface of the water.
“In the process of civilization development, intelligent beings generally pass through the civilization of the gods, the civilization of the monarch, and the civilization of the people.
Based on my rough understanding of you, you have basically not formed a civilization that should belong to you.
Whoever has the biggest fist will have the power to control the fate of others.
It was just that everyone’s strength was not too different, so almost every strong individual had a part of the power.
This kind of power was extremely scattered and not condensed. “
Uchiha Tunan used the language he learned from searching the brain of Koyu, which was also the local language.
Although Shokaku understood Uchiha Tunan’s words, he did not understand what Mountain God said in front of him.
In his confusion, he could not help but slowly raise his head to look ahead.
A breeze blew at the top of the mountain, blowing away the light smoke on the surface of the water.
Only then did Shokaku notice that the Mountain God in front of him was actually standing on the surface of the water.
At this moment, Uchiha Tunan continued to say to himself,
“Power usually brings desire to expand. No one is willing to give up.
Therefore, if you want to control power for a long time, you need to rely on the strength to suppress everyone.
Even if this strength does not belong to you, or does not exist at all.
The gods are born.”
Speaking of this, three rings of magatama appeared in Uchiha Tunan’s eyes, and he lowered his eyes to look at the calm water surface.
In the blink of an eye, his line of sight penetrated the mountain and looked straight at the village downstream.
At this time, the village had already prepared the sacrificial ceremony.
Okaku had gathered all the villagers, and they could hold the sacrificial ceremony after dawn.
As for the missing Shokaku, Okaku had no time to look for it for the time being.
Looking at the villagers standing in front of him, Okaku standing on the sacrificial altar said loudly,
“In the future, I will not be the village chief of this village, but also serve as the priest of Mountain God.
I will do my best to serve Mountain God and let Mountain God bless us to survive safely. “
…….
Uchiha Tunan looked at these ignorant primitive people and felt that it was quite interesting.
As for what kind of mentality this primitive man in the lead had to serve him.
Uchiha Tunan did not care.
At this time, Shokaku, who had been worrying about Koyu, once again loudly pleaded,
“Mountain God, I beg you, exchange the sacrifice for me!”
On the surface of the water, Uchiha Tunan smiled and shook his head.
“I don’t want you to sacrifice to me, but your father needs to sacrifice me.
So, you found the wrong person to ask for help. “
“It’s true!”
When Shokaku heard that Uchiha Tunan did not ask the villagers to offer sacrifices, his eyes were filled with surprise.
Then, he reacted and muttered with a puzzled face,
“Why? Why did my father want to offer sacrifices ?
You clearly didn’t ask for anything.
I will tell father now that you are a kind and great god. You don’t need a living person to offer sacrifices. “
Uchiha Tunan chuckled and said in a low voice,
“It is useless. No one will believe you unless I personally speak.
In this world, living life is always more valuable than dead life.
But why is there such a thing as a living sacrifice? Even a small village like yours has been passed down.
Have you ever thought about it?”
When Shokaku heard this, he recalled the various strange stories the old man in the village told him in his mind. He said in a low voice,
“It is because in this world, other than you, there are also Evil Gods who like to consume souls.
That is why this evil ritual is passed down. “
“The power to choose a living sacrifice may be a deterrence that makes people revere.
As long as you have the power to decide the life and death of your kind, you will have the power to enjoy the resources of your race. “
As Uchiha Tunan spoke, he slowly turned around.
This was the first time Shokaku had seen Uchiha Tunan’s appearance, so he didn’t show too much surprise.
After all, he was a man, and he wouldn’t be as amorous as when he first saw Uchiha Tunan.
His impression of the gods was almost blank.
In a short period of time, the image of Uchiha Tunan was labeled as a god by Shokaku’s subconscious.
In the future, perhaps he would always believe that the god was like this, but it was a little whiter and more beautiful than ordinary people.
It was unknown if Shokaku understood what Uchiha Tunan had just said, but he muttered with a puzzled expression,
“But why must it be Koyu.”
Uchiha Tunan smiled and slowly walked toward Shokaku.
He said slowly, “As long as the disaster doesn’t come to people who have the ability to resist, we can slowly build a habit.
After a long time, it will become a custom, or even a golden rule.
At that time, the candidates for the living sacrifice will no longer be limited to the weak who will drag the group down.
It was possible that the clan group was too powerful and difficult to restrain.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Tunan had already left the boiling water and arrived in front of Shokaku. He looked down at Shokaku with a gentle expression and said,
“If you go back and beg your father now, maybe you can still make it.”
Shokaku felt an inexplicable pressure when he came into contact with the god in his heart at such a close distance, and it was forcibly stuck in his heart.
Even his breathing became somewhat uneven, and his thoughts were unprecedentedly chaotic.
After a good while, Shokaku gasped for breath a few times. It seemed that his head had opened up, and he understood what Uchiha Tunan had said before. He kowtowed to Uchiha Tunan and said,
“Father will not listen to me…
I beg you, only you can save Koyu now.
No matter how ambitious father is, he would not dare to disobey your will. “
“I am very interested in being a god, and I have been working hard for it.”
Uchiha Tunan shook his head and said. Then, he took out a Buddha statue from his ninja backpack and placed it in front of Shokaku.
This Buddha statue was something that Uchiha Tunan had sincerely exchanged for before crossing time and space.
However, this was just a useless little thing. It was not bad to give it to the first believer who saw him.
Uchiha Tunan pointed at the Buddha statue and said,
“A qualified god should not speak, just like him.”
