Volume 10 Seven Weapons: Angry Pony Chapter 288: People of the Sun God
On the green grass.
The breeze blows by, as if it can blow away all the worries.
But the girl holding the rabbit in her arms slowly, slowly knelt on the ground, hugged the rabbit tightly, and began to cry.
She didn't cry heartbreakingly, but she didn't cry softly either, and looked very sad.
Su Weiyun and Liu Changjie walked over and stared at her, not knowing what words of comfort to say.
"Life is so beautiful, why are you crying?"
The girl turned her head and glanced at the two of them. Her eyes were hazy, but not panicked.
"Because I was abandoned by the sun god."
Su Weiyun asked curiously, "You were abandoned by the Sun God? Who is the Sun God?"
The girl said, "The Sun God is the god we believe in. He is bright and holy, and is a symbol of omnipotence and supremacy."
Su Weiyun sneered and said, "Is that grass also given to you by the Sun God?"
The girl said earnestly and firmly: "Of course, that magical herb can make people forget all worries and troubles, let us rise to the sky, and feel the greatness and warmth of the sun. If you taste it, you will definitely believe in the sun god with us."
"Is what you said true?"
"The people of the sun god will not lie under the sun."
The girl said: "You should join us, so that you can feel the supreme joy."
Su Weiyun sighed: "I just feel sad."
The girl asked curiously, "Are you sad for me?"
Su Weiyun said: "Sad for the sun."
…
Sun Lake is located behind , in a quiet valley.
The girl insisted on bringing Su Weiyun and Liu Changjie to Sun Lake, as if she was a devout believer who wanted to introduce the great gods to them .
The surface of Sun Lake is rippling and sparkling, and the sky, earth and water almost merge into one color. It is indeed a very beautiful place.
Liu Changjie said: "Besides them, few people come here. I have only been here once."
Su Weiyun said: "Perhaps it is because so few people come here that it still looks so beautiful and holy."
Liu Changjie said: "Because she is so beautiful and holy, she can deceive so many people."
The girl ignored the two of them, but clasped her hands in front of her chest and said excitedly:
"Every morning when the sun rises, the first ray of sunlight shines on the water of Sun Lake."
There was a dreamy longing in her eyes: "At that time, the lake seemed to be brighter than the sun. We jumped into the lake naked, as if we were embraced by the sun!"
Her voice was full of beautiful fantasy, without any evil or obscenity.
"Then we began to worship under the rising sun. We worshiped every day and prayed that it would always exist and never abandon us."
"What do you usually use as sacrifices?"
The girl said, "Flowers, use the cleanest, most beautiful, and most brilliant flowers in bloom. But sometimes there are big festivals, and that's different."
Su Weiyun asked: "What's the difference?"
The girl said, "On the fifteenth of every month, we use ourselves as sacrifices."
Su Weiyun and Liu Changjie looked at each other and stopped talking.
The girl explained, "On that day, each of us must wash ourselves clean in the lake, without a trace of dirt, and then dedicate ourselves completely to the sun."
Liu Changjie suddenly asked: "How did you make the donation?"
The girl continued to answer with her sacred expression.
"We will choose a strong boy who represents the sun god. Then each girl must dedicate her body to him until the sun sets."
She then said flatly, "And then we'll let him die in the sunset."
"On that day, the boys will also choose a beautiful girl and dedicate their bodies to her. I was originally chosen as a sacrifice to the sun god..."
Counting the days, today is September 14th.
Su Weiyun asked: "So you were going to die tomorrow?"
The girl nodded, but she showed no worry or fear.
"Are you not afraid of death?"
"That is not death, but dedication to the sun and eternal life. There is nothing more sacred and valuable in the world than this."
Su Weiyun asked: "Then...what made you stop completing this sacred task?"
The girl said, "It's a girl from outside."
Su Weiyun asked, "They chose her as a sacrifice to the Sun God?"
The girl showed a respectful look and said, "She is more beautiful and purer than me, so the Sun God will definitely like her."
Su Weiyun couldn't help but ask: " So the extremely sacred sun god always likes beautiful and good-looking women?"
His words contained sarcasm and mockery towards the "Sun God".
He believed that no god in heaven would do such a thing as to make beautiful boys and girls sacrifice their lives to it!
But the girl actually admitted: "Of course, who doesn't like pretty girls? Everyone likes them, but some hypocrites won't say it out loud."
"But the sun is different. It is completely honest and will never lie. So it just likes beautiful women! This is the truth."
Liu Changjie was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to look at. He said, "Although I don't know whether what she said is right or not, I can't seem to find any words to refute it."
Su Weiyun said: "If it was so easy to be refuted, they wouldn't have been obsessed with it for so long."
"No!"
"This is definitely not an addiction, guest of the Sun God, please don't use such a lowly word to describe our piety, it's an insult!"
The girl suddenly became hoarse.
Su Weiyun said seriously: "This is a kind of addiction. Not only are you addicted to that kind of grass, but you are also lost in empty faith!"
The girl's eyes suddenly became sharp, with an indescribable cruelty!
"I will never allow you to say that!"
She suddenly cried out loudly.
"Sun, sun, there are outsiders who want to insult the Sun God. People of the Sun God, come and protect it, come and protect it!"
Her voice suddenly echoed in the valley.
Su Weiyun and Liu Changjie were still standing there, not moving at all.
They were not as panic-stricken as the girl had thought.
The girl said coldly: "You will regret it."
Su Weiyun shook his head and said, "We are not afraid of the Sun God you mentioned. Do you believe that it can give you the power to defeat the two of us?"
The girl said firmly: "Yes, I will!"
More and more people were coming from all directions, both men and women, fat and thin, but without exception, they were all young, full of youth, and had extraordinary martial arts skills.
"You are the ones who are blaspheming the noble Sun God?"
Liu Changjie has already answered: "Yes, it's us!"
Everyone rushed forward together. Their martial arts styles were slightly different, but they all had the same goal - to defeat these two ignorant outsiders who blasphemed the sun god.
Bang, bang, bang…
It seems like the sound of a heartbeat, and also like the sound of flowers blooming.
Compared to the flowers all over the valley, Su Weiyun's figure looked like petals blooming and sparkling.
The wind from his fists swept in all directions, his clothes fluttered, and flowers bloomed all over the valley.
More than a dozen boys and girls fell to the ground.
Su Weiyun asked calmly, "Where is the power bestowed upon you by the Sun God? Why don't you use it? Or is the Sun God you are talking about completely useless?"
The girl argued: "No! The Sun God is great, but we are not pious enough, so we cannot receive too much of his power!"
“Who is the most pious person then?”
"He is a messenger of the Sun God who always wears a golden mask. He is the one who conducts every sacrificial ceremony!"
Liu Changjie frowned and said, "They seem to be talking about Wen Liangyu. After Wen Liangyu seized power from Master Zhu Wu, he secretly used various methods to control many werewolves, including this group of playful wolves."
So Su Weiyun said: "Your Sun God messenger is dead."
"Impossible, you two liars!"
Several people slowly walked over from the distance, surrounding a handsome man.
"I just came back from outside the valley. The messenger of the sun god did go to heaven."
The handsome man in the lead said, "But we can still elect a new messenger of the Sun God."
Su Weiyun's heart seemed to have sunk to the bottom of Sun Lake.
——What is truly terrifying is not the messenger of the sun god, but the fact that they have become accustomed to always obeying the instructions of the messenger of the god.
