Chapter 76 Mother Goddess
"In ancient legends, the Mother Goddess and the Goddess were once two gods in one."
The woman said softly.
The light from the oil lamp flickered in front of the crowd.
"The Mother Goddess governs the light, and the Goddess governs the night."
"In order to save mankind, the Mother Goddess used up all her energy and fell into a deep sleep, leaving only the Queen to look after everyone. A long, long time has passed, and few people remember this incident!"
The woman's voice gradually became excited.
Snake's slender fingertips touched the side of her face.
What a good idea! He is worthy of being a god who can turn into a "frog mother" after millions of years.
The route plan at this time was unique. First, they relied on the fame of "Nuwa" to gain believers, and then gradually purified it.
"But the sacrificial team has completely forgotten the contribution of the 'Mother Goddess'! Even the Queen can't stand it anymore!"
The woman was filled with resentment.
Snake slowly typed a question mark.
Oh? Who can't stand it anymore?
"Keep your voice down." Another girl next to the woman frowned and whispered, "Be careful not to be heard by others."
The woman gritted her teeth and lowered her voice in compromise.
It turns out that he is well aware that he is running a shameful sect.
Sheshe saw the woman suddenly grab her hand. The woman was very strong, as if she wanted to crush her hand into a round shape with a desire to destroy it. She whispered, "You must be careful, don't be fooled by those priests! Those people have long forgotten the sacrifices made by the Mother Goddess for them, and even the Queen can't control them."
"They only care about themselves now!" the woman was indignant.
Sheshe used some strength to pull her hand back.
Smiled quietly.
"Okay, stop talking about this all the time."
"A new friend is coming."
"It must be the guidance of the Mother Goddess!"
The people around were talking at once and trying to persuade the emotional woman to calm down.
"My name is Fuuka."
The girl tilted her head slightly, revealing a friendly face: "You are new here, right? If you don't mind, you can ask me any questions."
"Miss you, just tell me to miss you." Sheshe smiled slightly.
Fenghua's expression was visibly dull for a moment, and she murmured, "It's time to pray. Yes, it's time to pray."
But for a long time, his eyes could not move away from Sheshe's face.
A woman sitting in the main seat with a serious face frowned and called out, "Fenghua."
"Ah, start praying and meditating."
Fenghua coughed lightly and quickly got into position. After closing her eyes, she couldn't help but open her left eye and secretly glanced at the beauty who was doing the same movements with them. She leaned over and whispered, "If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me directly."
Snake nodded.
"Great Frog Mother, Mother of Light, Savior of All Living Things..."
The sound of prayer gradually became ethereal and even, reverberating in the wooden house with a sacred tone.
Snake couldn't help but yawn.
I suddenly recalled the time when I was still in the eggshell and used Nineteen's prayer as a lullaby.
The woman with a serious face was obviously the leader of this small group. From the moment she came in, she was the first to get rid of the shock of her face. Then she was the one who had been secretly looking at her with a scrutinizing eye. Finally, she took control of the situation with a few words and started praying first.
This secret group has about 20 to 30 people, but there are definitely more than just these invisible followers of "Frog Mother". These people are just those who are more fanatical about "Frog Mother". After all, some people even bring their children with them, trying to let the next generation be influenced in advance, or in other words, to get the favor of God in advance. It is not certain how much power these people occupy in the entire secret cult.
After all, even she, a newcomer, could be pulled into the secret meeting.
It has a bit of the flavor of a makeshift troupe.
Before going to bed, Sheshe vaguely mentioned to Nineteen that "Frog Mother" should have a place, but given Nineteen's personality, it is obvious that he would not be the kind of person who would just relax and let her go.
Speaking of which...is Nineteen still alive now?
Sheshe couldn't help but pause. After waking up, she finally and carefully touched the faith that belonged to Nineteen.
'Still alive...' Snake thought.
But...she should be in her sixties or seventies now, which is considered to be very dry and frail in human terms.
She was keeping her promise and letting Nineteen witness her return before he died, right?
While Snake was acting like a beautiful woman trying to pray, she was thinking aimlessly in her mind.
Throw Pi Er to Pi Yidai. Anyway, Sheshe would never do this kind of screw-driving work again.
Pi was so angry that he jumped up and down, wasting his energy but only made his head light up like a light bulb and hurt the snake's eyes... Tsk, what a shame.
After becoming an adult, I have to start practicing tongue twisters all over again.
Oh, it really makes it difficult for the snake every time it speaks so quickly and horribly!
But the way those believers recite the tongue twisters with such piety and breathe fire is still so funny no matter how many times I think about it. I haven't seen it in years.
“…”
The surroundings became quiet.
Snake suddenly felt something.
In the weird world, many things are defined based on idealism, and premonitions and intuition are always very important.
She seemed to actually feel something sweeping over her.
But there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Her mind instantly pictured a pair of eyes stuck to the wall of the ant box, squinting hard to stare inside.
Is He watching? He is so diligent. Did He see her?
Snake opened his amber eyes and pursed his lips in thought.
The snake couldn't help but call out to Him in his mind, but he didn't get the next glance.
Snake was a little disappointed.
A long while passed.
Everyone opened their eyes one after another.
Tell each person what happened after meditation.
Someone said, "There is darkness everywhere, and the Mother Goddess has not paid attention to me yet."
Someone said, "I saw a little light, and there was a child's voice in the light."
Someone said: "I seem to have seen the kingdom of the Mother Goddess through my dreams."
This is totally falling asleep.
Everyone looked away at the same time. The person who spoke coughed lightly, then quietly retracted his gaze and played with his fingers.
The next person quickly stepped forward.
He stammered for a long time but couldn't say anything.
The people around him couldn't wait to interrupt him and excitedly talked about what they saw.
The man immediately breathed a sigh of relief and retreated peacefully.
Until everyone's expectant eyes finally turned to Sheshe.
The black snake beauty was slightly stunned. She pursed her lips and awkwardly lifted up the loose hair on her temples.
He seemed to be hesitant, as if he had failed.
Fenghua said quickly: "It is very normal to have nothing. For example, the black bird can't be seen every time you pray."
The black bird that was called out coughed lightly, turned away, and tried to explain: "It's not the first time, it's just..."
"Xiao Hu is the same, she can only see a little bit every time, and she never succeeds!"
Xiaohu shuddered when he was named.
"There are also Qingwu, Chiffon, and Lu..."
"Ahem." The serious-looking leader coughed.
Fenghua finally reacted and changed the subject as if nothing had happened, clenching her fist and saying, "So don't be discouraged, we'll try again next time."
The people around breathed a sigh of relief and quickly echoed the sentiment.
Unexpectedly, the beauty named "Missing" slowly shook her head: "I saw a beam of light. That light was not firelight, but another strange light. There were many houses in the light. When I walked in."
"I heard a voice saying to me..."
Snake paused slightly.
"Telling me..."
Everyone couldn't help but lean forward.
The man leaning against the door suddenly stood up and said in a panic, "The sacrificial team seems to be coming this way!"
There was a sudden thunderclap.
Everyone couldn't help but panic.
The serious-looking leader immediately stood up and directed the evacuation route in an orderly manner.
Sheshe had no choice but to shut up regretfully.
I'll edit it next time...
Suddenly, a hand secretly clamped Sheshe's wrist. Sheshe turned her head slightly, and saw the leader's face approaching in the darkness outside the firelight, and whispered: "If there is any problem in the tribe, as believers of the Mother Goddess, we will help you. If you have any problem, contact Fenghua, and she will bring you to me."
Fenghua pulled it.
Snake's eyes studied the leader's back as he walked towards the secret passage for a moment.
Fenghua's voice was very low: "Come with me, don't worry."
She dragged the snake through another secret passage.
It was still raining outside the window. The cabin was not as harmless as it seemed.
Various plank roads were used to secretly cross Chencang.
In the blurry rain, one can vaguely see a team of priests in white running towards them, with flames flickering in the rain.
"Don't look, it's okay."
Fenghua grabbed the beauty and took her away, taking another road.
The settlement continued to expand and street lights appeared on the roadside.
Fenghua was in a tense state of mind, and led his people all the way to the statue in the center of the settlement.
An upright snake statue stands in the center of the square. Beside the snake statue are stone statues of various styles and designs. They have long since gotten rid of the crudely made appearance of the past and are even painted with some colors. A circle of lights surrounds the statues, and the clustered flames illuminate the stone statues, making the outline of the snake appear deeper and more vivid.
Seeing it from afar in the darkness can make one hold one's breath, and one can't help but lower one's head because of its lifelikeness.
Fenghua couldn't help swallowing and turned her head to avoid the snake statue. She wiped the water stains on her face, turned around and took the beauty's hand, her hand was slightly cold: "Si Nian, I live there, come to me if you need anything."
The outsiders taken in by the high priest usually live on the outskirts of the tribe. After Fenghua pointed out her address, she planned to send the beauty back.
Amber eyes studied the snake statue. In the darkness, the beauty whispered, "I want to stay here for a while. I know the way. If I don't remember, I will ask you, Fenghua."
"Okay." Fenghua left hesitantly.
Sheshe was not standing close to the snake statue. When Fenghua walked to the door of her house, she could not see her outline in the darkness. Also, because of the light at the door of her house, the warm yellow light fell on the door, making it even harder to see the beauty in the dark. She could only sigh and return home.
She didn't see it, but a low silhouette landed next to Sheshe, and the person who came couldn't help but shout.
"Lord Sisi."
Snake couldn't help but lower his head.
It was raining heavily, and ordinary people couldn't see the faces immersed in the darkness, but this did not include Sisi.
It was a face full of wrinkles. Whether it was the long gray hair or the thin and hunched body, they all told of the ruthlessness of time.
But in those amber eyes, the tough girl of the past is now disabled and sitting in a wheelchair. She still has the same young face as before.
She is still the same person.
"Not bad, you came quickly, worthy of being my first believer." Sheshe raised her chin slightly and crossed her arms across her chest: "What are you holding in your hands?"
Nineteen patted the pottery jar in his arms, raised his head with a smile, and his face still had the gentle smile of the past. He said slowly: "It's meat pie soup, which is Master Sisi's favorite."
Sheshe raised an eyebrow, subconsciously feeling hungry.
After a while.
Sheshe was eating meat pie soup and watching the sacrificial inspection scene with Nineteen who was sitting in a wheelchair.
The sacrificial teams are going door to door to investigate and deal with the "Frog Mother" believers.
Sheshe suddenly saw a person.
The man was tall and slender, with a familiar cold face. His chin was slightly raised, and his sharp eyes looked up and down at the person answering the question. He and the priest beside him played the villain and the hero respectively.
The amber eyes narrowed slightly, and the facial features seemed to match those of a little boy in memory.
She swallowed the broth: "Isn't that seventeen?"
"It's her." Nineteen Wo replied slowly while lying in the wheelchair.
"Didn't you tell her anything?" Sheshe couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Among those believers who gathered secretly, few could be considered as cultivators. Most of them were ordinary people, but they were able to receive the news in advance when the sacrificial team came to inspect.
Nineteen knew about the "Frog Mother" very early on, and it was obvious that she did something about it, otherwise they would never have the soil for development and would not be able to recruit newcomers into the sect.
And Seventeen, who is now about seventeen years old, was knocking on the door with a stern face, trying to smell the scent of "Frog Mother" like a ferocious hound.
It was obvious at first glance that he had no idea what was going on, and he looked murderous, wanting to grab his ex by the hair.
Moreover, according to Sheshe's understanding of Seventeen, she is quite arrogant. If she knew Star-point Sheshe's plan, it would not be so easy for her to act the role of "someone kept in the dark" so well, which obviously shows that she knows nothing.
Nineteen laughed twice: "Young man, you see things in black and white."
Snake took a bite of the meat pie.
Nineteen turned his head and looked a little confused: "But Master Sisi, how did you get mixed up with the followers of the Frog Mother?"
Snake said nonchalantly, "He thought I was pretty and wanted to preach to me."
She tilted her head and thought for a moment, with a hint of regret in her tone: "If you had come a little slower, maybe I would have become their saint today."
nineteen:"……"
Nineteen: “Hmm?”
