Chapter 292 The ceremony of worshipping the gods
Yoon watched as the people who came here gradually settled down here and built a group of barely-stop residences with stones and wood.
Although the shrine is large and has many rooms, this group of people did not move in at all.
Apart from the old women and the little girls, only a few people they selected followed them and moved into the shrine.
The ritual of worship that has always been said to be held is about to begin with people's efforts.
A pure white dress was made, and it can be seen that this dress is extremely precious and is much better than the clothes on people.
Some candles and colorful lanterns were also cherished by people. Obviously, these are unique sacrificial objects that people usually don’t use.
If you can carry these items on the way to escape, you can imagine how precious they are.
The little girl is called Ying, and she can be regarded as an intern witch. These days, she has been following the old woman, Orange, to learn more about God.
Yoon also listened to it and felt that he benefited a lot and learned a lot of information about the world.
The gods in people's mouths actually do not refer to the true gods, and are very different from the gods that Yoon knows.
Simply put, the God in their mouths means the same as the Spirit.
Use God when expressing respect, and use Spirit when expressing respect.
When the old woman first spoke, she said that there were evil spirits, natural spirits and gods, she had already explained the types of gods in this world in general.
In people's mouths, evil spirits are evil gods, who need bloody sacrifices, desire fear and despair, and worship evil spirits from being harmed by monsters, but they also have to endure the torture of evil spirits.
Natural spirit is called natural gods, the conceptual consciousness of mountains, rivers and rivers. It is completely neutral. Don’t bother me, and I won’t bother you. Basically, it’s not a problem with everyone. At most, it only occasionally makes some troubles to make people living nearby feel a headache.
It is difficult for natural spirits to become gods worshipped by people, but they do not resist communicating or even trading with humans. Occasionally, they will obtain some things from humans to protect humans from threats from monsters.
As for the last god, it is a more special existence.
The gods in this world should be called elves to be precise. They come from myths and stories passed down by people, some ancient legends, and even artifacts that have been used in their homes for a long time, may produce gods. These things have been used to fit into a certain concept from the spirit of human beings, thus forming gods.
Compared with evil gods and natural gods, gods themselves are more complicated, with good and bad. All of this must be viewed according to the essence of their birth.
For example, in mythology, a god who thinks it is a bad guy who suddenly forms in this world one day, then this god will possess the essence of the setting and become a bad guy with divine power according to human recognition.
And just like the setting of curing diseases and saving people, it will also become a god who cures diseases and saves people.
In short, the classification of gods is too complicated, and it is difficult for people to understand how to treat all gods in detail. Therefore, there must be a witch and gods to communicate to bring more understanding to everyone.
The profession of witches was born for the gods with full-time duties.
Only those girls with sufficient spirituality and excellent talent can become witches. Of course, this does not mean that boys are useless. There are also people with spirituality and talent among boys, but their more choices are warriors and Onmyoji, who gain power by defeating monsters and enslaving monsters and thus gaining strength.
No matter how you look at Yoon, you feel that it is very similar to the stories in Fusang on Earth before. The ancient Fusang belonged to people during the day and ghosts at night, and eight million gods, which really have a strong sense of déjà.
There are many gods in this world. In addition to the above three major categories, there are some other minor categories.
For example...ghosts and gods.
This is a terrible monster that has fallen into a murderous ghost because of too many killings by human warriors, losing all their reason and emotions, and only for the sake of killing.
Although every time it appears, it will cause a catastrophe, but in fact, it is difficult to be cared about by people because of the sparse number. Even in the mouth of the old woman, Orange, she simply regards it as a natural disaster. People in this world may not encounter such a thing in their lifetimes.
After talking about the gods, Orange began to talk about the monsters again.
What is a monster? In this world, monsters are beasts, plants, and even vengeful spirits, everything that is beyond humans.
Some gods were even monsters, but because of their acceptance of faith, they became worshipped gods.
But those who can reach this point are all monsters with super strength. Weak monsters do not even have much advantage compared to ordinary people, so they will naturally not be worshipped.
Therefore, it is natural for monsters to attack people, because they require human fear and despair, and make themselves stronger by absorbing them.
"It turns out that the previous monsters did not want to eat all the migrant people, but used the fact that they were eaten to force the team to fear and despair, and thus absorb this emotion - this is the real food for monsters. Otherwise, humans and wild beasts were no different from monsters, and even eating wild beasts was much less dangerous than eating humans."
Yoon tsk out a word about this, and the monsters' wisdom does not seem to be low either.
The preparations for the ceremony of worshipping the gods were almost done, and the people outside were already impatient to wait. Only then did the Cheng announce that the ceremony of worshipping the gods began.
So on the tenth day after this human team arrived here, the central center of the shrine lit a huge bonfire, and countless people stepped into the gate of the shrine for the first time, grouping the central group into a circle, and offering fruits and livestock that they were reluctant to eat.
Yoon sat in the main hall of the shrine, looking at the little girl Sakura who walked to the statue. This time she was the only one who came here. The old woman Orange, who had been teaching her, did not follow in.
The main hall gate was closed, leaving only a little girl here alone.
Yoon was not curious, because he had known the passage of the ritual of worshipping the gods from the conversation between the two witches-
Before the end of the ritual of God, the witch needs to be alone with God and cannot be seen by others, which means that everything about herself must be handed over to God.
The meaning here is very simple, because only by handing everything in God, then there should be no fear or worry, and believe in your heart that everything will be solved by God.
