As Su Mo's words fell, the atmosphere on the field became stagnant for a moment.
Song Ruyuan and others looked at the God of Agriculture with nervous expressions.
Although they have all noticed the existence of the seal.
But under normal circumstances, shouldn't you be willing to give in to the other party?
How could anyone be so reckless as to ask on the spot?
What's the difference between this and showing off?
For a moment, everyone was ready for a big battle.
But unexpectedly.
There was no expression of shock or anger on the illusory face of the god of agriculture.
Instead, he was slightly surprised.
Then he sighed and said:
"I originally planned to tell you in detail later.
Since you have already seen it, it saves me the trouble of explaining it.
Yes, I am indeed sealed here.
Originally, I was a local god worshiped in Ninghua City.
Later, it happened that the demons were causing trouble. As a god, I had the responsibility to protect the people.
He fought hard and suffered heavy losses.
I thought this would save the people from disaster.
Who would have thought that the demon would come back later with friends.
Not only did they slaughter my believers, they also destroyed my altar.
Even after I escaped, they chased me all the way.
In the end, they captured me on the spot.
But because I have entered the realm of Yinshen.
There is charm in many places and it is difficult to kill completely.
Therefore, the other party sealed me here and prepared to rely on the power of time to obliterate me.
Fortunately, I later met three kind-hearted people who built a shrine here for me to worship.
It may be hard for you to imagine that before those three people took action, this place was originally a mountainous area.
It is five or six kilometers away from the main village of Chenjiacun.
I was buried in a cave.
It wasn't until I met them later that I was able to see the light of day again.
You should all see it later.
It is with my blessing that those three young people were able to obtain powerful sacrificial weapons and all kinds of luck, and became the three famous families.
Chenjia Village was able to develop from a run-down village with only a few dozen households back then to a huge village and town that is no less than an ordinary county town.
In comparison, how many people and villages in the outside world can have such an opportunity? "
Everyone looked at the God of Agriculture with rather subtle expressions.
They didn't expect that this god of agriculture was very sincere and directly told him his origins and his past.
Judging from the situation in the previous hallucination scene, a large part of what he said is true.
However, as for the specific details, we naturally cannot listen to his one-sided words.
At least the ones I saw in the village were definitely not the work of some benevolent god.
Facing this talkative God of Agriculture, Xue Lansu suddenly asked:
"Since you have concluded contracts with the three major families, why not let them break your seal and release you?"
"How can it be so easy to break the seal?"
The god of agriculture showed a wry smile on his wrinkled illusory face:
“On the surface, it seems that I am sealed in this statue, and I can be rescued by breaking the statue.
But this is not the case.
The gang of demons who attacked me were quite sophisticated.
Although they refused to kill me and prevent me from being resurrected elsewhere, the seal they set was disgusting enough.
First of all, this seal cannot be broken by external force.
Any external force that falls into it will be assimilated into its own power, further strengthening the seal.
Secondly, if the seal is forcibly broken by an outsider, an extremely powerful attack will erupt, destroying the inner sealed object.
In other words, if I let outsiders help break the seal.
If the power is too small, it will only strengthen the seal. If the power is too strong, it will cause me severe damage.
It has been a long time since it was first sealed.
The seal has been obliterated to a certain extent, but I am also not as strong as I was at the beginning.
I may not be able to block the attack when this seal is broken.
Therefore, the matter of unblocking needs to be considered in the long run. "
Song Ruyuan listened, his eyes flashed, and then asked:
"Then why did you only choose three major families to worship you?
If you choose the entire villagers of Chenjia Village as believers and extend favors, you will definitely gain a lot of faith.
This should be of great benefit to you in strengthening yourself to crack the seal, right? "
"That's true, but you also have to consider the actual conditions."
The God of Agriculture sighed and said:
“When I was sealed, my strength had already fallen to the Yin Shen realm.
In addition, I am in a seal. Even if I use all my strength to get through the loophole, I can barely convey my thoughts.
This also means that I can only collect faith to a limited extent, otherwise no matter how much faith I have, it will be useless if it cannot be passed into the seal.
Later, I discovered that manipulating the three major families could better unify the beliefs of the entire village.
Although they are not my believers, at most they can only be regarded as superficial believers.
But there are three major families taking the lead. These simple believers alone can provide a lot of incense on the day of the festival, and I don't need to pay any price for it or waste my strength to bless it.
As for the last point, it is the toxicity of incense.
In my current state, even if I could harvest a large amount of incense at once, I would still find it difficult to withstand the poison contained in it.
If you don't want to die in the seal, you can only flow slowly, slowly plot incense, and then use the incense to wear away the seal, so that sooner or later you can break out of the seal. "
"So according to your estimate, how long will this process take?"
Xue Lansu asked directly.
The God of Agriculture thought for a moment and replied:
"If we look at the scale of the sacrifices of the three major families, it will probably take another one hundred and fifty years.
But now that you are starting the sacrifice from scratch, it should take longer.
According to my estimate, it will take at least three hundred years. "
Hearing this, Su Mo suddenly interrupted and asked:
"When we came in before, we encountered something like a mirror person, which can perfectly copy others according to their realm and strength. What happened to this kind of thing? Is this a rule you set?"
"You think too highly of me."
The God of Agriculture replied with a wry smile:
"Don't say that I am just a sealed old, weak and crippled god now. Even when I was at my peak, I would never be able to achieve this level.
But listening to what you said, I know who did this.
If nothing else, they should be the demons who sealed me back then! "
"You must have all noticed that this is a very vast secret realm.
In the eyes of many people in Chenjia Village, this place is just an ordinary mountainous area.
But there is an entrance to a secret realm in this mountainous area.
It is precisely because of this that those demons sealed me here.
Because the environment of the secret realm is naturally different from the outside world, including the rules of heaven and earth.
In comparison, the rules here should be established by the original pioneers.
Then the descendants of the pioneers can take advantage of the rules here to a certain extent.
The other party used the rules here to suppress me.
This is one of the reasons why I have difficulty escaping the seal.
Because this statue cannot leave the secret realm at all.
Once you leave, you will definitely encounter backlash from the secret realm.
Even at my peak, I might not be able to withstand such a powerful backlash.
But then I thought of a way.
Since I can't get out, can't I just let others in?
Anyway, this secret realm has been abandoned, and the so-called rules are dead rules.
I have been sealed here for a long time, but I have gained some insights into the rules.
With the help of these rules and the changes in the outside world, the secret realm gradually penetrates into the surrounding area.
Even the entire Chenjiacun was involved.
After this happens, maybe I can get unprecedented opportunities because of this seal. "
"Going back to the previous topic, I can roughly understand the origin of the mirror person you mentioned.
This should be a back-up left deliberately by the demons, to be activated when the seal is activated.
Many years ago, when Chenjia Village was destroyed, I tried to escape, but failed.
Instead, he was hit hard again by the backlash of the seal and fell into a deep sleep.
At that time, the mirror person mechanism in this secret realm must have been reactivated.
I can roughly guess what those monsters are thinking.
As long as there are creatures from the outside coming in, they will be copied by mirror people.
Then let the mirror person destroy the other party, and I can completely cut off my contact with the outside world.
This ensures that the seal is not destroyed by external forces.
Thinking about it this way, they have gone to great lengths to seal a small god like me. "
At the end of the sentence, the god of agriculture showed a hint of coldness on his face.
Obviously, with his character, it was difficult to cover up the resentment that had been sealed for thousands of years.
Everyone was quite enlightened after listening to the explanation of the God of Agriculture.
They have always felt that there are too many abnormalities in this foreign land compared to what they have experienced before.
Now that we know that this is a secret realm that existed in ancient times, it actually clears up a lot of doubts.
But after that, more mysteries emerged——
How did this secret place come about?
What force does it belong to?
And why was it abandoned?
Where did those monsters mentioned by the God of Agriculture go?
Even if you ask the God of Agriculture, he may not know these questions.
For a moment, the eyes of everyone looking at the green-robed warrior statue became more and more profound.
If nothing unexpected happens, this green-robed warrior statue should have a lot to do with the group of departing demons.
Maybe it's the idol they worship inside.
While everyone was thinking, Su Mo suddenly spoke again:
"If I guessed correctly, you should have swallowed them up after the battle with those evil spirits, right?"
Hearing this, the people around him were shocked.
They had seen the horror of that piece of black flesh in the picture before.
Although it was only a short-term display of power, it was enough to make people feel terrified.
Even Song Ruyuan and Xue Lansu couldn't guarantee that they would escape the predation of black flesh and blood even if they were at the scene.
But now, Su Mo said that the God of Agriculture had devoured the other party?
Doesn't this mean that he has become stronger than in the fantasy scene?
Facing everyone's surprised and uncertain eyes, the God of Agriculture's expression was slightly dull, then he looked at Su Mo with strange eyes and said:
"I didn't expect you to even know about this. Yes, although the external evil is terrifying, this is my home court after all.
The opponent is naturally at a disadvantage when fighting me here.
Since we have defeated it, in line with the principle of not wasting it, of course we must eat it.
And this is also the most appropriate way to deal with it, otherwise if he is allowed to dissipate his breath, he may infect more people.
Even if I don’t think about myself, I still have to think about outsiders who may step into this secret realm in the future. "
Seeing the compassionate look on the face of the God of Agriculture, Su Mo didn't feel any flutter in his heart.
He said slowly:
"The reason why I noticed that you swallowed that evil thing was purely because I sensed its remaining breath from your body, and at the same time, I also remembered what it was.
On the way here, I was very familiar with a mouse that turned into an animal.
At that time, I didn't understand the source of this familiar feeling. It wasn't until I was communicating with you just now that I suddenly remembered it.
Judging from the geographical location, there used to be a robbery demon nearby.
After it was killed, many fragments were left behind, and some of these fragments were properly disposed of.
But there are still some bits and pieces leaked out, maybe accidentally eaten by the rats here, and they are contaminated with the same atmosphere.
What's more important is that the piece of flesh and blood that the high priest Chen Chuyan and Chen took out that day was probably one of the fragments.
I don't know how he got the fragments, but no matter what, the evil thing you fight is just a part of the robbery.
If not, it won't be swallowed by you later.
So here comes the question, even the fragments of the robbery can be swallowed up safely. Are you really a god who has become a god? "
Facing Su Mo's doubts, the expression on the God of Agriculture's face slowly froze.
He seemed to want to laugh, but his expression made people feel stiff.
Like a puppet that has come alive, it is filled with a deep sense of dissonance.
Before the God of Agriculture could explain, Su Mo continued:
"You might say that you can use the power of incense to refine the Tribulation Demon to supplement yourself.
I don't read much, so I really don't know whether this possibility exists.
But what I know is that if you use the power of incense to refine it, the breath of the other party will not still remain until now.
This is more akin to swallowing one alive, which is why one's own origin is dyed with the background of a demon.
Maybe you have other excuses.
So let me ask one final question.
You provided a sacrificial vessel to each of the three major families.
Each of these three sacrificial vessels has a rare and magical use.
Even ordinary gods may not be able to own one of these.
Not to mention someone like you who gave away three at once.
Since these three sacrificial vessels were given by you, you must know them very well.
So can you tell me how many restrictions are engraved in these three sacrificial vessels? "
When the God of Agriculture heard this question, his expression suddenly froze.
A sneer suddenly appeared on Su Mo's face, and then he said:
"You can't answer, right? It's normal that you can't answer, because these three sacrificial vessels were not given by you at all!!"
