Chapter 10: Divine Right and Royal Right
In the remote, quiet, deserted field, Gaobil stood waiting.
Not long after, he saw his brother running towards him with a smile on his face.
"Brother, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Habil, who was still immersed in God's response, did not notice anything wrong. He said happily, "Let's go tell our father and mother about God's response later. They will definitely be happy!"
When Gao Bile heard this, he was not happy at all. Instead, he became more aware that his position would be in jeopardy.
He yelled jealously, "Why, why would the gods choose your sacrifice!"
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Habil looked stunned.
Even though he was slow-witted, he realized something was wrong.
Looking at his brother's innocent face, Gao Bile became more and more angry.
Unable to hold back, he punched his brother hard in the face.
"ah!"
Habil screamed and fell to the ground.
Gaobil was on top of him, punching him again and again.
Screams continued to be heard, interspersed with Habil's constant cries for mercy from his brother.
Gao Biller, who was filled with anger and jealousy, didn't listen at all. In his anger and jealousy, he even saw a stone on the ground, picked it up and smashed it on his brother's head.
boom!
After a muffled sound
It was not until then that Gao Bile realized what he had done. He shook his brother in panic, and when he found that he really had no response, he was so scared that he climbed up.
"What did I do..."
"I killed my brother?"
Shrouded in fear, he subconsciously took a few steps back.
"No, no, I didn't mean to..."
Gaobil fell into a trance, muttering to himself, as if begging for forgiveness.
However, he was so caught up in his fear that he did not realize that although he was very scared about killing his brother, he actually had a hidden joy in his heart.
Or perhaps, he chose this remote place because he already had some evil thoughts in his mind, but he just didn't expect them to actually happen.
The sky was overcast with dark clouds.
Boom!
Thunder roared and a dazzling flash of lightning flashed.
Boom boom boom!
Gaobil looked up at the sky.
The constantly flashing thunder seemed like God was angry and denouncing his actions.
"No, no, it's not my fault, God, I didn't mean to kill him!"
He held his head and screamed.
He ran away screaming in fear, leaving Habil, whose body was slowly turning cold, behind.
Su Qi, who arrived not long ago and saw all this, no longer had a blank expression on his face and sighed slightly.
Accompanied by rumbling thunder, heavy rain poured down.
At the same time, the reminder sounded.
[Gobile killed Habil. This was the first murder, the beginning of sin, and the first struggle between royal power and divine power.]
Su Qi, who was frowning, was slightly stunned.
There is nothing in the beginning, what do the royal power and divine authority in the end mean?
After wondering for a while, he suddenly thought of something.
The previous sacrificial acts of Gobil and Habil should be the prototype of theocracy and royal authority.
One who thinks that he doesn't care about sacrifices and there is no need to waste too many resources on sacrifices, but should use them on development.
A person who thinks that he is everything and that all good things that happen are due to his protection, and who should be offered the best things in sacrifice to himself in order to be recognized.
Su Qi remembers that in some places, very few artifacts for sacrificing to gods were unearthed. People believed in the power of nature and themselves and rarely relied on gods.
The model is generally based on royal power and military power, supplemented by divine power.
Instead of consuming materials and manpower to contribute to God, they are used in production and development.
Some places are the opposite...
After figuring out some things, Su Qi shook his head slightly, looked at the dead Habil, and thought about how to deal with this matter.
Finally, he thought about it and decided to leave the matter to Adam.
Adam, who was hiding in the house with his wife to avoid the rain, looked at the gloomy sky and felt a little uneasy for some reason.
At this moment, he felt as if he was trapped in the light, and was extremely close to the God who was high above.
"is God!"
Before he could be surprised and smile with joy, a series of scenes appeared.
Habil fell to the ground, and Gaobil, with a ferocious look on his face, raised the stone in his hand and smashed it down hard...
Habil is dead...
"Habil!" Adam cried out sadly.
Hawa next to him looked at him worriedly.
Adam had no doubt about the truth of the matter. He rushed out in the rain in shock and anger.
Not long after, he found Gao Bille at home.
"Where did your brother go?" he asked straight to the point.
Gao Bile had already done something bad, so when faced with his father's sudden intrusion and questioning, he was completely panicked.
His face turned pale and he said in panic, "I'm not guarding him, how do I know where he went?"
"Your brother is bleeding all over the floor. He's wailing and accusing you of killing him!" Adam said sadly .
"No, no! I didn't!"
Gaobil was completely panicked. Seeing the surprised looks of Hawa who was running behind Adam and his wife in the house, he stepped back in fear, his face full of horror.
Adam said woodenly, "God has made me know everything."
Gao Biller was completely panicked and backed away repeatedly, knocking over many objects along the way.
"God... God knows..."
"Haha, that's right... How could a God who knows everything not know..."
Gao Bill laughed miserably, looking devastated.
Not only because my father and his family knew about it, but also because God knew about it...
He collapsed on the ground, breaking down and crying, "I didn't mean to do that, I didn't mean to do that, no..."
He felt regretful.
Adam's face was blank.
Hawa and Gobil's wife covered their hands with a look of disbelief on their faces.
Boom, lightning flashed across the sky.
Adam stared at the sky absentmindedly.
The thunder in my ears became louder and louder, as if God was angry, and the wind and rain outside became stronger, as if God was sad.
Before long, the entire tribe was shocked.
Gaobil was actually driven out of the tribe!
He was driven out with his wife and some followers...
Adam stood on the top of the mountain, looking at Gaobil, who was expelled from the tribe and led his people to migrate northward, his face full of sadness.
Su Qi floated in the air nearby and sighed slightly.
Suddenly, the scenery in front of me became blurred and things changed rapidly.
[Time passed quickly, and soon another three hundred years had passed.]
[Adan's tribe is becoming stronger and stronger, but on the contrary, his life is about to come to an end. ]
Looking at the changes in the world before his eyes, which passed in a flash, Su Qi was almost used to it.
But the last prompt made him stunned.
Turning in the air, he began to look for Adam.
Soon, he found the person he was looking for in a wooden house that was densely packed and surrounded by a sea of people.
Inside the large wooden house.
With white hair and wrinkles all over his face, Adam, who looked like an old man, lay on the wooden bed, dying.
Sitting beside the bed was Eve, who was equally old and had tearful eyes.
From inside to outside the house, there were descendants of the two of them standing everywhere, everyone had sadness on their faces, and cries could be heard everywhere.
Adam, who was lying on the bed dying, now had wisdom in his eyes.
