"Praise the Lord God! The kingdom has conquered Yunshe Mountain City, and the alliance's old enemies have been wiped out! Come, everyone, have a drink with me to celebrate the God King!..."
"Yes!... Praise the Lord God! Congratulations to the King of God! Congratulations to His Highness!..."
The night is vast and the bonfire is shining. The divine palace in Hidden Snake City ushered in a new owner, and also ushered in a feast that had not been seen in a long time. Shulot smiled, holding a wine glass made of copal resin, and sat high on the huge sacred tree base. The numerous legion generals, temple priests, and tribal chiefs below were all sitting on small bamboo mats, and their status could be known at a glance.
The so-called "Copal" (Copal) is a sacrificial balsam on the plateau, seaside and even among the Mayan tribes, and is called the sacred "blood of the tree"! This kind of resin is secreted by many fragrant trees in the tropical olive family and condensed into groups. Its shape is between amber and agarwood, and its smell also varies according to the inheritance and blending of each place. In the epics passed down by the seaside, as far back as the ancient Olmec era, there was a tradition of burning copal resin in sacrificial rituals.
Coba resin can burn to produce a strong aroma, and can also guide the spirits of sacrifices during rituals and communicate with the ancient gods and ancestors. Therefore, copal resin is expensive and very popular in all parts of Central America.
The coastal tribes are located in the tropical jungle and are one of the main origin areas of this "tree blood". The resin wine cup in Shulot's hand is a sacred object of the Hidden Snake Holy City. It comes from a large piece of ancient resin fossil excavated from the ground hundreds of years ago. And as long as you drink from this wine glass, you will naturally have a faint fragrance, as if you are communicating with the ancient tree spirit!
As for the sacred wooden tree base that Shulot is sitting on, it is also one of the inherited sacred objects of the Hidden Snake Holy City. It comes from a "sacred wood" that is more than a thousand years old (similar to Palo Santo in South America). It is made from the heart of the "sacred wood" and has a natural relaxing aroma.
In seaside legends, it is a sacred object given to the first followers by the Quetzalcoatl, and has magical cleansing and healing effects. But now, these precious artifacts that symbolize inheritance and divinity have all fallen into the hands of the Lake Kingdom with the destruction of the Hidden Snake Holy City!
"Praise to your highness the Divine Enlightenment! You have unified the seaside land and become the first common king of all the seaside tribes!... Please let our seaside priests dance and sing for you!"
Everyone was drinking heavily, and the chief priest of Jinwan, Yi Muyu, turned red, stood up, and wanted to dance to the king. When Priest Papu heard this, he quickly stood up and seconded the proposal, with colorful lights coming out of his mouth.
"Exactly! Exactly! Your revered Highness, you are the divine sun on the seashore, flowing with golden light! Let us pray for you and praise your generosity and kindness, just like praising the sacred mountain under the rising sun! …”
"Haha! Okay!... Seaside priests, you are all knowledgeable sages. Sing me a song, the hymn of the Olmec ancestors!..."
Listening to the rainbow-like singing of the crowd, Shulot raised the corner of his mouth and felt very happy in his heart. These seaside priests have some Olmec heritage. When it comes to speaking nice words, they are much better than the simple plateau priests. Now is the time to relax, and he is also happy to listen to hymns of praise and have fun together.
"Uh...Okay! Then let me start the show!"
Priest Papu did his part, danced and recited the opening verse first in a melodious priestly tone.
"In the era of five suns, the ancestors of the Olmecs rose in divine light! That was the first flame that lit the towering sacred tree. Then the blue snake wandered in the deep sea, and the golden eagle soared in the towering plateau , the black wolf gallops across the vast land!…”
"And I, in the destiny of the five gods and five elements, saw the immortal black light... He has traveled through several reincarnations from the ancient era, until now, shining in front of my eyes, my most loyal heart, dedicated to my supreme supremacy The king!…”
Upon hearing Priest Papu's colorful compliments, Priest Yimuyu's eyelids twitched and he felt a numbness in his back. Compared with Papu, who was a high-ranking priest, his literary talent was much worse. He thought for a while before speaking with difficulty, his hands constantly changing the direction of the instructions, and he praised hard.
"Six ancestral rivers originate from the original ancient holy city and flow to all directions in the world! Countless Jiao tribes, one in the nearby west, one in the nearby south, and one in the nearby East, one in the far east...and two great diverging rivers, one in the far far north, and one in the far far south!..."
"No matter where they are, they are the blood of our ancestors and our long-lost brothers. Although they have forgotten, they are destined to return and re-believe in the only main god and the only king with divine revelation! …”
"Haha! Okay! Very good! Continue!..."
After the two chief priests finished singing, the eyes of many priests invariably looked at the old witch doctor Kani who lowered his head. Xiulote raised his eyebrows and looked over curiously, staring at the old priest who had a refined appearance but kept a low profile.
"Pap, who is he?..."
"Your Highness, he is the most outstanding wise man Kani among the many priests! He has an inherited divine object and can predict good and bad luck. Every time he speaks, he will hit the target!"
"Oh?! Possessing magical objects and being good at prophecy?"
Hearing this, Shulot was startled and looked at the old witch doctor Kani in surprise. Then, he touched his chin and smiled meaningfully.
"Witness the Lord God! Wise Carney, please continue to complete this hymn... Please be sure to predict the future for me in the near future!..."
"Uh...this! I..."
Hearing the king's instructions and feeling the sight of everyone, the old witch doctor Kani's heart trembled, and his back was instantly soaked. He had never planned to say anything about "divination" about the future in front of Shulot, who was good at "prophecy"! But looking at the king's half-smiling expression, he knew that he had no way out...
After a moment of hesitation, the old witch doctor Kani held the pottery plate he carried with him and gritted his teeth. He recalled the few words in his memory and took great risks to perform the great dance again.
"The doomsday cycle of the era has begun again. The noon sun reflects the new rising sun, allowing the world's artifacts to be forged in the flames! The golden eagle and the black wolf work in tandem, sweeping across all parts of the world and ruling the sky, the earth and the ocean! .The twin suns in the sky burn the world, until the golden eagle falls into the mountains and the black wolf stands alone at the top, there will be the only true black light!..."
"And the end of an era is always accompanied by disaster. The newer and broader the era, the more profound and terrifying the destruction! At the beginning of this fifth era, there will be black shadows and white disasters, coming from the distant East China Sea. , bringing unprecedented roar and death!…”
"However, the black light is immortal, and the grass and trees in the world will eventually continue to grow. In the test of the doomsday divine disaster, the roots of the sacred tree finally extend, connecting the withered grass and trees together... until the divine disaster passes, and the grass and trees grow again When the flowers bloom, they will unite into one, with unprecedented prosperity!…”
"Hmm?! The golden eagle fell into the mountains, and the black wolf came to the top alone? Unprecedented roar and death? The divine disaster has passed, and all the tribes in the world have united as one from now on?!"
On the sacred wooden throne, Shulot's expression changed, and his expression instantly became serious. He stared deeply at the wise man Kani, and did not speak for a long time.
There are only two possibilities for the other party to sing such a prophetic song! One is that he really has the ability to predict, or he has a mysterious divine object. The other type is extremely smart and can guess his own thoughts from the prophecies spread by the exploration fleet. And no matter which one it is…
Shulot pondered for a long time, and the old witch doctor Kani who was looking at him was sweating on his forehead, his hands and feet were shaking slightly, and then he suddenly burst into laughter.
"Good! Very good! What a wise man Kani, indeed extraordinary! ... Ekart!"
"Master?"
"Witness the Lord God! I am very happy to meet such a wise man! Come! Give him the divine wine cup in my hand!..."
"Yes! Master!"
"Ah! Thank you, Your Majesty the Divine Enlightenment! Only truly noble people can possess such divine objects! But an old man like me doesn't dare to..."
"Haha! Witness the Lord God! I like wise men the most in my life, and I also like listening to the wise men's teachings the most..."
Shulot smiled slightly and interrupted the old witch doctor. Then, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the old witch doctor who bowed his head respectfully. He spoke quietly and decided the fate of the other party.
"Dear wise man Kani! From today on, please stay with me and talk and teach me at any time!..."
Hearing this, many priests showed envy in their eyes. However, the old witch doctor Kani's knees weakened, and his always leisurely voice began to tremble.
"Ah?! Ah this!... Your Highness... I also have the duties of a historian..."
"It doesn't matter! With me, you can still compile epics, and you can compile them even better!..."
Shulot smiled and looked at the nervous old witch doctor. There was a smile on his face, but his voice was majestic and could not be disobeyed.
"Just in time, you can come with me and return to the magnificent capital city in the lake... to take a look at the alliance's inheritance map and epic album... and also to truly see the blazing sun at noon and the appearance of the golden eagle!..."
