far away.
When Axiang saw the towering tree, he felt a tremor in his soul.
He explored the unknown and pursued knowledge, but what he just saw was so deep and so desperate.
The overwhelming twisted monsters came like a tsunami, but were instantly swallowed up by the pale and colorful flames. Finally, surprisingly, new green sprouted from the flames, and the towering trees suddenly covered the island. Pink petals fell slowly, and Axiang raised his hand to catch one of them.
He rubbed the soft petals with two fingers and sniffed them. The elegant fragrance diluted the salty and damp sea breeze, making him feel relaxed and happy.
Before this, Axiang had seen monsters on the sea, witnessed the great deeds of extraordinary people, and come into contact with the exquisite craftsmanship of wise craftsmen. But now, a miracle appeared before him, which was enough to shatter all his previous world views and values.
He couldn't help but fall to his knees, like all the other crew members.
thump--
Several crew members began to kowtow and kneel, praying to the gods for protection. They didn't even notice that gusts of wind had begun to blow in the doldrums.
Ah Xiang stared straight at the magical cherry tree, his mind was blank and his rationality was completely gone. At this moment, he was in tears and just wanted to stand there forever.
However, Captain Nagamasa caught a glimpse of a small boat heading towards here from the island.
There were two people standing on the boat, a man and a woman, they were Lu Ban and Bao Bao.
“They are indeed God’s messengers.”
A crew member said so.
"God's messenger!"
“God’s messenger!!”
"God's messenger!!!"
The crew members immediately prostrated themselves, not daring to look up at the two men.
Lu Ban and Bao Bao returned to the boat, looked at these people and glanced at each other.
"I'm not some messenger of God."
Leopard said, causing the crew members who were worshipping to stop.
They stared at Bao Bao in white clothes and red hakama. She stood with her hands on her hips and back straight with confidence.
"Don't underestimate me, I am a god."
Hearing what Baobao said, the crew members were stunned and quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at him.
"god!"
"god!!"
"god!!!"
On the side, A Xiang felt a bit complicated.
He didn't know whether Baobao was a real god, but at this moment, after showing such great power, she should be a god.
"What were those just now..."
Axiang asked.
"Those are filthy things. They cannot be eliminated by normal means. They can only be exorcised with pure fire... She is the Son of God who can control pure fire."
Lu Ban thought about it and pointed at Baobao.
Since Baobao is cooperating so well with the performance, Lu Ban will just make do with it.
"Son of God!"
All the crew members prostrated themselves and knelt before Baobao.
"We need to build a shrine to worship the gods and resist the filth."
Lu Ban spoke again.
Xia's power needs to be fixed through a ritual. Only in this way can she radiate and cover the entire island and eliminate all the filth that appears.
"Let's go back to shore and find more people."
Lu Ban decided to stay in this world for a little longer.
After hearing Lu Ban's words, Nagamasa hurriedly asked the sailors to raise the sails.
It was not until then that Nagamasa discovered that a new wind had begun to blow in the doldrums.
They returned to the small island that served as a pirate base, reunited with the rest of the people, and after another long voyage, they finally returned to the port.
This was the first time that Lu Ban saw Kazushima of this era.
The living standard here is roughly that of the late 19th century, except that steam has not yet become popular and animal power is still the mainstream. The port is prosperous, but it is mostly the exchange of small commodities. Fishing is still the main source of income for people living along the coast.
As soon as he stepped into the port, Lu Ban discovered that the expressions on the faces of the residents here were a little solemn.
After some inquiries, Nagamasa found out that the capital city had been hit by a natural disaster, and it seemed that many people had died, leading to chaos and war, and people everywhere were in danger.
There are still many countries on the continent today, and they are fighting each other, and wars occur from time to time.
"Natural disaster?"
Lu Ban thought about it and felt that the possibility of natural disasters occurring within the continent at this point in time was not high, and it was most likely the influence of filth.
If the filth appeared in inland areas, then there would be no way for them to survive there.
Lu Ban remembered that the Wajima Taisha Shrine where Shenying was located was the political and cultural center of Wajima in the future, which meant that the vast majority of the population lived there. Therefore, the political and cultural center of this era would inevitably be the marginal area of the future.
"Just go and see for yourself."
Baobao is quite into the role. She maintains a solemn and reclusive attitude in front of others, and only acts like a child in front of Lu Ban.
She grabbed Lu Ban's hand and took a step forward. The surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
The sky turned red, which was the color of the fire reflected on the dark clouds. In front of them, the once prosperous and glorious city had engulfed in a sea of fire. Screams were heard incessantly, and even more frightening was the sound of something crawling.
Lu Ban saw a group of people in front of him.
Soldiers wearing rattan armor and holding spears, a gorgeously decorated carriage, and a group of slaves were hurriedly heading towards Lu Ban.
They ignored the disaster victims nearby and even ran over those who had no time to dodge. Judging from the flag, they seemed to be the royal family of this country.
"Everyone, get out of the way, make way for His Majesty!"
The leading soldier shouted, and it could be felt that they were also exhausted. This unexpected disaster was not something that ordinary people could resist. No matter how powerful a transcendent was, he would only become food in front of those monsters.
Lu Ban's [Real Vision] showed that in the carriage, the pot-bellied king was still drinking happily from a golden wine cup, holding a charming woman in his arms, and a sumptuous food was placed in front of him.
Even while fleeing, he did not give up enjoying himself.
It would be better to say that, precisely because one knows that the outcome is more dangerous than good, one wants to enjoy oneself at the last moment.
Lu Ban came to the middle of the road and stood in front of the group of people.
"Get out of the way! Don't block the road!"
The soldier raised his whip and tried to drive Lu Ban away.
But his attention was soon attracted by the woman next to Lu Ban.
The woman in strange clothes was like some kind of magical thing, which immediately frightened him and other soldiers, causing the convoy to stop and causing a commotion.
"Why did you stop?"
The king of this country lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked anxiously, holding a half-eaten chicken leg in his hand.
But all doubts disappeared after seeing the leopard.
"This place has been attacked by filth, and we are here to purify it."
Lu Ban said.
"Take all the living people in the city and go to the seaside, a place that can protect you, above the sea."
He pointed toward the sea.
The soldiers were still somewhat skeptical, but the king of this country had come to his senses.
"Go, go, what are you still standing there for?!"
He urged the driver, and when he saw that he did not move, he took the reins himself and tried to drive the carriage.
But the next moment, the fat and bloated Wang stopped his actions. He began to pick at his face, nostrils, mouth, and eyes. Soon he dug out his eyeballs. His face was covered in blood. The fingers did not stop, but followed the depressions of his eyes and dug out the pink stuff inside.
thump--
The most noble man in the country fell to the ground and mixed with cow dung and mud.
"From now on, there will be no more emperors in this world. Only the son of God of the Washima Shrine is the only one you should follow."
Lu Ban said immediately.
When the soldiers, nobles, ministers, and civilians saw this scene, they immediately knelt on the ground, prostrated themselves, and prayed to God.
