Chapter 366 "The Game of the Ancestral Gods" The Disappeared Tomb

"Ancestral God?"

Jiang Qian tilted his head pretending to be puzzled, but did not stop: "I've never heard you mention it before."

"If Brother Jiang hadn't rushed to join the authorities, I would still have had the opportunity to give you a warning."

Ayiguli sighed regretfully and looked into the distance with a pair of affectionate eyes:

"But even if you knew it, it wouldn't be of much help to the competition for the crown prince. 'Ancestral God' is another name for the sacred mountain, just like 'sacrifice' is another name for 'Crown Prince'. The people of the sacred mountain are afraid of the unknown power of the sacred mountain, so they call it this God; the people of the Holy Mountain hope to inherit His power, and send the prince to the Holy Mountain to obtain gifts through competition. "

People choose to worship the powerful unknown force because they cannot defeat it. If they cannot defeat it, they become one. This is the most common way of thinking in China.

Jiang Qian stopped, and Ayiguli also stopped following Jiang Qian's pace.

An opportunity for correction took shape in Jiang Qian's mind:

"Why is 'sacrifice' another name for 'Crown Prince'?"

Ayiguli was startled when she heard this. She didn't expect Jiang Qian's attention to be so sharp. This was the question she was least willing to answer as a sacred mountain saint.

Unfortunately, she was already Jiang Qian's teammate at this time, so she naturally had no reason to refuse this question.

So he avoided the serious matter and said lightly: "Isn't this easy to understand? Because most princes will lose their lives in the competition. The princes who lose their lives are no longer princes. They are just pitiful victims, so there is a saying of sacrifice."

Jiang Qian nodded calmly and continued walking forward.

At the same time, he said: "You said that the ancestor god is another name for the sacred mountain. The people of the sacred mountain are afraid of the unknown power of the sacred mountain, so they call it a god. There is a logical problem here."

"What's the problem?" Ayiguli secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time had to cheer up.

"It sounds like the 'ancestral god' refers to the unknown power that exists in the sacred mountain, not the sacred mountain itself, right?"

"No……"

Ayiguli's expression gradually became solemn:

"The sacred mountain itself is the manifestation of the unknown power... I know this is difficult to understand, and it is difficult for me to describe! But the 'Ancestral God' is such an existence. He controls all laws, time, space, elements, phase , Cause and Effect... As long as He wants, no one can escape His curse, and as long as He wants, everyone's past can be exposed by Him!"

Speaking of this, Ayiguli suddenly changed the subject:

"But did you know? My brother Jiang, the sacred mountain, does not exist in this world!"

Jiang Qian's expression changed slightly when he heard this, but then recovered: "I understand."

"Understood?" Ayiguli was confused this time.

"I understand why the official license holder has been unable to find the specific location of the sacred mountain."

Jiang Qian sighed softly and answered as if he was just an outside observer:

"Because it never existed at all, there is no way to trace it, and even if it is traced, there will be no results. The sacred mountain does not exist in the real world. Only a few people control the interface between the sacred mountain and the real world, and of course these people are not as consistent as a mountain. You can move and hide as needed, so you can repeatedly avoid official tracing. "

"Theoretically, as long as your evasive actions are timely, even if others travel the entire west, they won't gain anything. Am I right?"

Ayiguli remained silent, but her expression betrayed her thoughts.

"Precisely because the location of the Holy Mountain is not fixed, you must return to the Holy Mountain through the old woman and sand gold. But this is what I can't understand."

Jiang Qian turned to look at Ayiguli, and Ayiguli also looked at Jiang Qian. The two looked at each other with their own thoughts.

"You...what else don't you understand?"

Ayiguli regretted asking this question!

She didn't want to know Jiang Qian's questions at all, because even if she knew, she couldn't answer them. Not only is it impossible to answer, it will also destroy the interest alliance they have formed at this stage.

The two were silent for a while, then Jiang Qian smiled:

"Let's go. Rather than all this, it's better to help me find the second piece of chess. After winning this competition, we will have plenty of time to talk about other things."

The sensitive topic was thus sidetracked.

There are some issues that cannot be judged until the other party talks about them.

The focus has returned to the current core contradiction: how to win the current battle for the prince.

Until then, Ayiguli finally asked: "Since we need to get the second chess piece quickly, won't Brother Jiang release the Beast King to help track him down?"

Beast King? Um... Jiang Qian said calmly: "I have my own plan for this, just follow me."

Ayiguli kept up the pace as if she didn't understand.

It is rare that two people are bound to the same boat. During the break, Jiang Qian had the opportunity to sort out the current clues:

First of all, the realm here is different from the rules of reality. Perhaps after jumping from the window, this is the territory of the "ancestral god".

The Ancestral God means "unknown power", and it is also the power inherited by the Lord of the Holy Mountain who finally won. No matter how specific it is, even Aiguli, the saint of the Holy Mountain, cannot describe it accurately.

Next, the first village and town that I left after entering this realm received the hint of the "chess game" about the rules of this place, and verified the hint in the subsequent experience, and won the "auxiliary chess piece" of Peacock Spider Ayiguli. ".

According to current observations, according to the normal process, Jiang Qian's progress should be led by the "Beast King", but he could easily find the path just by relying on the map left by his father...

Is it a coincidence?

Jiang Qian doesn't think so.

So he wanted to verify the validity of the map again.

Of course, even if he doesn't do this, there is no other better choice. By avoiding the high risk of taking spoon poison, he also gave up the convenience of the Beast King leading the process.

However, it is unclear whether the guidance of the Beast King is a "convenience" or a "disaster". In the puzzle related to the sacred mountain, Jiang Qian is suspicious of anyone's "warning".

Including Aiguli and the nine-tailed fox Da Jiaojiao who is in official prison.

This is not because they are so crazy that they are unwilling to cooperate even if they die together, but because there is insufficient evidence, Jiang Qian cannot guarantee that what they both believe in must be true and exist.

"Brother Jiang, do we want to hike up the mountain?"

After a while, Ayiguli became suspicious of Jiang Qian's "own plan":

"At this rate, we will lag far behind the other three princes."

Jiang Qian lifted the shade of the tree in front of him and made a "stop" gesture: "Stop, there is someone in front."

A few miles in front of the two of them was a large field.

Above the fields are hills.

On the hill, two thin shadows vaguely appeared.

Jiang Qian took a closer look and saw that there were two tombs, one tall and one short...

"What's wrong?" Ayiguli whispered.

Jiang Qian focused his attention, but the two tombs disappeared again...

He subconsciously pointed to the hill and asked Ayiguli: "Did you see it?"

"what did you see?"

"grave."

"grave?"

Ayiguli was startled, followed Jiang Qian's wishes, and shook her head in confusion: "No, it's just a hill..."

Speaking of this, Ayiguli's charming and smart eyes gradually opened wide and looked at Jiang Qian.

The two people quickly confirmed their eyes: This is it!

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. If nothing else, the second "secondary chess piece" is hidden here.

"Do you recognize all the saints and saints?" Jiang Qian asked.

"Yes, I will try my best to help you determine the identity of the other party, and you decide whether to choose it or not."

"Then it'll be hard work."

After establishing their goal, the two immediately started taking action.

Continue to go deeper along the fields, looking for traces of human survival and habitation.

A short lone figure ran into Jiang Qian's sight again!

This time Aiguli also noticed it, so she threw the spider silk at the target, but when she pulled it back, she found nothing.

"Is it an illusion created by the 'Ancestral God'?" Ayiguli was a little annoyed.

In contrast, Jiang Qian was much calmer: "Relax, since you know it may be just an illusion, why should you be confused by the illusion?"

Ayiguli suppressed her anger, stroked her cheek, and sighed softly: "That's right, Brother Jiang still has the determination~"

The two continued to search forward.

He stayed alert like this for several hours, and never saw a human figure or any trace of human habitation.

"Are we being fooled?" Ayiguli couldn't help but mutter.

Jiang Qian smiled nonchalantly: "The Ancestral God dragged us here to fight to the death. After all, isn't it just to trick us?"

Ayiguli was stunned, unable to refute this point of view.

"Since this is a fact, why are you angry? Don't forget who our opponent is." Jiang Qian reminded calmly.

The two of them continued on their way.

After a while, Jiang Qian heard Ayiguli sigh: "You really don't look like a human being."

This is Ayiguli's most intuitive feeling, regardless of other conditions.

The young man in front of him has clear goals, is calm and decisive in dealing with problems, and it seems that nothing external can interfere with his emotions or affect his judgment.

Jiang Qian turned his face and said with a smile: "I just thought you were complimenting me."

Ayiguli fell silent.

Once upon a time, the other party was still a "puppet" that she could manipulate at will while talking and laughing. Now, she has to rely on the other party's mind and ability to gain a chance of survival in this predicament... Think about it, the situation is really changing!

And Jiang Qian was able to coexist harmoniously with her without any suspicion in advance, and it was awe-inspiring after thinking about it deeply.

…

"There is a situation."

Jiang Qian's whisper pulled Ayiguli out of her reverie.

She subconsciously looked in the direction Jiang Qian was looking at: "...village?"

Parting through the trees, not far away, halfway up the mountain, there are large and small thatched houses with poles and fences. The structure is simple, with two floors: the upper floor is a house structure for human habitation, and the lower floor is for livestock.

Judging from the various household furnishings scattered around the thatched houses, the people here have not yet realized modernization, and the energy they use is still fire rather than electricity.

Of course, these are not enough to constitute Jiang Qian's so-called "situation".

Looking far into the distance, Ayiguli saw many people surrounding the open space blocked by the front row of thatched houses. They seemed to be participating in some kind of ceremony or activity.

"Let's go and take a look," Jiang Qian patted Aiguli on the shoulder, "Don't miss any detail."

As a result, the two "showed their special abilities", walked past the houses in the village, and quietly lurked near the crowd.

Even in the causal mirror of the ancestral gods, the card holder's awareness and insight are far beyond the reach of ordinary humans. Therefore, the two quickly witnessed what happened at the scene.

This is a succession ceremony.

The son of the former leader of the village inherited the power of his father who died of illness and became the new owner of the village.

The surrounding villagers followed the priest's instructions and performed various movements of worship and loyalty. They all had pious expressions and murmured words. The whole ceremony conveyed a solemn aura.

The ceremony went smoothly until the end of the process.

The new leader of the village is a middle-aged man in his thirties. He is tall and strong, with dark skin. He walks majestically, which is synonymous with "power".

His slightly older wife is solemn and dignified, standing beside her with her two sons. The eyes of mother and son reflect their admiration and pride for their father.

So far, there are no signs of anything big happening in this pristine village.

Behind a certain big tree, a tiny peacock spider crawled out from Jiang Qian's collar, and Ayiguli's question came from Jiang Qian's ear: "They seem to be over, what should we do?"

"Are there any familiar faces here?" Jiang Qian asked.

"Not found yet."

"You stay on guard while I keep an eye on the new leader. I'll let you know if anything happens."

"Okay~"

After explaining to Ayiguli, Jiang Qian put on his invisibility armor again and followed the new leader towards his residence.

If this situation is already in the causal mirror, then some disaster must be brewing.

Jiang Qian quietly approached the leader's double-story thatched house and hid outside the second-floor window, preparing to gather information.

At this time, the new leader had returned home with the priest and two important "cadres" and closed the door, as if he wanted to study something important. His wife quietly went to the kitchen to cook, while the children stayed and played outside the thatched hut.

Jiang Qian stood outside the window and listened intently.

After a while, a strange chanting came from the house. This voice belonged to the priest who was presiding over the succession ceremony today.

After a while, the chanting stopped, and a deep sigh came from the room.

Then, an older cadre said: "This matter is a sign of great danger, and the leader needs to consider it carefully."

As soon as he finished speaking, another young cadre put forward the opposite view: "It all depends on man! If we can't even protect our women, then what else can we protect?"

"This is not a question of protection or not, but Yuan Xi herself... Alas!" The older cadre sighed again, with unspeakable pain in his tone!

"Why not? If it weren't for the old leader's obedience, could that guy easily abduct the young lady? If something goes wrong, blame it on a weak woman. That's the sign of a coward!"

"You know that's not what I meant..."

The older cadre was about to argue, but was stopped by the leader: "Okay! Stop arguing. I have made up my mind on this matter."

"leader……"

…

There was silence in the room for a while, and then the man's rich voice came: "This matter should come to an end, but now is not the time."

"Are you planning to...?"

"As long as that person is not eliminated, it will be difficult for us to succeed..."

The three began to plot.

Jiang Qian outside the window heard a lot of things. He secretly turned on his spiritual vision to observe what was going on in the house.

It was then that I unexpectedly discovered that the two children who had been ignored had returned to the house at some point. Their behavior was exactly the same as Jiang Qian's. They were pressing their young bodies against the door, secretly eavesdropping on the adults' conversation. .

But the children were careless after all, and the adults in the house soon discovered their actions.

It's just that the leader's eldest son reacted quickly and escaped quickly, but the leader's younger son, who was slower, was caught red-handed, stretched out and "beaten" violently, and the sound of crying and making noise immediately alerted the mistress in the kitchen!

The wife of the new chieftain was very protective of her son. Regardless of the reason, she would kneel down to her husband when he entered the house to ask for forgiveness for his youngest son's fault.

By this time, the eldest son had already run away...

Jiang Qian took advantage of the chaos and ordered to his collar: "There is a boy who ran out towards the south of the village. He is about twelve or thirteen years old. He is the eldest son of the new leader. Please help me keep an eye on him."

"Okay~" Ayiguli's voice immediately echoed in her ears.

His "secondary chess" was very cooperative, but Jiang Qian was not in a hurry to be happy, but continued to warn: "Logically, you have your own way of doing things, so I only have one request."

"What?"
