Shadow held his hand. At this moment, time around him suddenly stopped. Sissi could not hear their conversation at this moment.
"Don't rush to refute me. I know you are not Jiu Shen, but aren't you curious about why you came here?" Shadow said, "A man from the future."
Seeing this, Su Mingan realized something: "You brought me to this timeline?"
"Yes." Shadow nodded: "...I am the messenger of the Nine Gods."
"God Jiu has a messenger?"
Shadow smiled and said, "I am the messenger of the Nine Gods, but in this world where faith is monopolized by the Hundred Gods, I can only pretend to be an ordinary orphan and get around the children.
Children are the purest and I can easily change their ideas.
When Xixi was little, I had been telling her stories about Jiu Shen, trying to change her mindset. Now... I have finally succeeded. As long as I lie to her and tell her that you who have been saving her are Jiu Shen, and make her believe in Jiu Shen's existence, Jiu Shen will really wake up. So, please don't deny me."
A wonderful cause and effect relationship.
When hearing these words, Su Mingan couldn't help but sigh at the rules of this dome.
Gods and humans are interdependent, they have conventions and use faith as a transaction.
When people give their loyal faith to others, the gods who live by faith will truly appear before them and become what they need them to be.
What Shadow had been doing was to make Siber believe that the Nine Gods really existed. He deliberately led the disaster to happen so that she would lose her faith in the Hundred Gods.
If you believe it, it exists; if you don’t believe it, it doesn’t exist.
A simple sentence can be played with in such a big way.
"...Do you think that Lord Jiu Shen is an evil god and the evil side behind Lord Bai Shen?" Shadow said.
"Isn't it?" Su Mingan said.
Shadow laughed.
"No," he said. "Quite the contrary."
Listening to Shadow's words, Su Mingan felt a sense of absurdity rising.
He had a feeling that what Shadow was going to say next would seem to overturn all the information he had obtained so far.
"Lord Jiushen is the most ancient guardian god existing in this dome." said the shadow.
"..."Su Mingan was a little surprised.
He had speculated that Jiushen did not exist, that Jiushen was the companion god of Baishen, and even that Jiushen was himself.
...But he never guessed that this Nine Gods existed from the very beginning.
He just hasn't gained enough faith and has never awakened.
On the contrary, the Hundred Gods are just fictitious gods created by outsiders in order to control the people of the Skyland.
"I understand." Su Ming'an said, "Hundreds of years ago, foreigners invaded with their beliefs. They slandered Jiu Shen, destroyed all cultural books about Jiu Shen, and named him an evil god, thus changing the beliefs of the entire Dome Land. In this way, the foreigners who controlled the beliefs of the people of Dome Land could use the name of the 'Hundred Gods' they made up to do whatever they wanted. The real god 'Jiu Shen', who lost his faith, fell into a deep sleep."
"You are very clever," said Shadow.
"However, before long, the virtual image of Baishen will gain enough faith, and He will appear like a flash in the pan," said Su Mingan.
"Yes." Shadow said, "However, fiction is fiction after all. The Hundred Gods will soon turn into a barrier covering the sky and die. After all, they are not real gods."
Su Mingan took a breath.
He really didn't expect that this Jiu Shen was the real, ancient god. He had been sleeping because his name was defiled by outsiders and his faith was taken away.
And the Hundred Gods... before He actually appeared, they were all just lies told by outsiders.
People are good at using the concepts of "pollution" and "cleanliness" to make social distinctions. People are naturally disgusted by the existence of diseases, so naturally, this becomes a factor of distinction. If you want to exclude a group of people, the best way is to loudly announce that this group of people is sick and will cause pollution.
So, outsiders announced that the Nine Gods would bring curses and disasters, and those who believed in the Nine Gods would cause pollution.
Then they succeeded, people no longer believed in the Nine Gods, and the Nine Gods fell into a deep sleep.
So in the future, in fact, Siberia, who is rejected by everyone, is the only person in the dome who has the correct beliefs.
Su Mingan remembered the look on Siber's face when he first entered the dungeon, woke up, and pushed open the wooden door.
The vast, dark sky stretched behind her.
She is like a dancing, bright fire in the darkness, stubbornly blooming the most dazzling brilliance in the darkness.
——It was as if he was fighting silently against this dark world with his own strength.
At that time, she
It is indeed against the world.
Shadow raised his hand, time returned to normal flow, and Sissi opened her eyes.
She was too weak now, and the forceful suppression of the curse in her body made it difficult for her to even speak.
"Siberia," Shadow said, "do you want to live?"
"You..." Xixi didn't understand. Who was this shadow, her childhood playmate who had always been so low-key... this orphan who was picked up by her parents and had always been with her?
"You have also seen that Lord Baishen does not favor you." Shadow said:
“He ordered you to be thrown into the lava and sacrificed to the gods. He is not a god that should be trusted at all.
As long as you believe in Jiu Shen, Jiu Shen-sama can save you."
"What should I do?" Siberia said blankly.
"If you want to believe in the Nine Gods..." The shadow stood in front of her, looking at her.
