Chapter 363 The Mastermind Behind the Scenes!
"If I'm not wrong about Dilongdong, they should be the descendants of those snake priests from the warlock dynasty."
"Snake Priest?" Yuchi Feihong was a little confused when he heard this word for the first time. At least he had never heard of this force in his knowledge.
Chen Qing explained patiently: "In order to attract the help of human beings, the Dragon Palace spread the art of dragon transformation, and human beings were extremely unique in being able to integrate with all things. Therefore, this technology of grafting with demons became the pursuit of some warlocks at that time. The secret of immortality.”
"Among many creatures, snakes are a very wonderful species. According to the research of ancient warlocks, some non-demon snakes can live for thousands of years, and some demon-type snakes are even more exaggerated. They can continuously shed their skin. , It seems that as long as there is always a food source, it will not die.”
"How could it be?" Yuchi Feihong said, "You've never heard of an immortal snake demon, have you?"
"That's because this kind of snake demon has difficulty surviving when it grows to a certain extent!" Chen Qing explained: "For snake demons that shed their skin, they will become larger after shedding their skin, and their food intake will continue to increase. It is easy to hide, and an increase in appetite will cause chaos in the world, so you will often see huge snake monsters wreaking havoc in the countryside, and then being killed by warlocks or warriors. They rarely grow for more than a thousand years. "
"I see, what about those in the north?"
"Earth python!" Chen Qing nodded and said: "Hiding deep underground and avoiding humans will have room for survival. In an era when demons were weak, this was a method, and the one who led the group of snakes sleeping underground was the Earth Mother. These earth mothers attract priests to serve through the ancient consciousness in the ancient Sky Python Palace. In the Southern Barbarians, those half-human and half-snake evil gods are the most easily attracted. "
"Are you saying that those evil gods and demons in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom are humans?"
"Do you think religion is organized by humans or gods?" Chen Qing suddenly asked a very strange question.
Yuchi Feihong was stunned for a moment: "Don't they all say that the organization was organized by evil gods seducing mortals? Including your current Shinto stream, Lord, isn't this the same truth?"
"Hey, don't talk nonsense," Chen Qing said immediately: "Although we also rely on faith to make a living, I am different."
The gods enshrined in Shinto are not just inbound and outbound. They absorb faith, but use faith to build and strengthen the community of believers. They follow the path of common prosperity. This is called taking from the people and using it for the people, while evil gods are equivalent to Triad groups collect protection fees but don't follow the rules very much. They don't care about your life or death. They try their best to exploit you and stimulate you with greed, turning you into a madman of desire. They burn themselves and let the other party gain the greatest faith. , after you become worthless, even your life and soul will not be spared.
But it is different from our formal organization.
"I'm not saying that your organization is the same as the evil god, I'm just saying that it's a bit similar."
"If you can't speak, don't talk nonsense." Chen Qing rolled her eyes at him: "The government and gangs both charge your hard-earned money, so how can it be the same?"
Yuchi Feihong: "."
Ahem, Chen Qing coughed lightly and continued: "Anyway, most of the evil gods are actually humans. The reason is very simple. Only people who know people best will know what temptations can be used to quickly form organizations."
"I see."
"But why do you want to open the Heavenly Python Palace that the Lord mentioned?"
"Of course it's to pursue the strongest." Chen Qing said with a smile: "There are two directions for the evolution of snakes. One is to shed its skin and turn into a dragon, and then turn into a dragon. Instead, it will shrink in size, gain supernatural powers, and greatly increase its lifespan. But there is a drawback.”
"shortcoming?"
"Yes, the disadvantage is that a dragon cannot continue to evolve by shedding its skin like a snake, and become almost immortal."
Yuchi Feihong: "."
"You mean, those snakes in the Southern Barbarians don't want to turn into dragons, but want to continue to grow in size?"
"You are indeed smarter than that guy Yu Chipeng." Chen Qing suddenly laughed and said: "That's what it means. The Tianyang Palace is another way of evolution of snakes, infinitely shedding, infinitely huge!"
"Can this kind of thing last long?" This time, even Yuchi Feihong, who didn't understand biology, felt something was wrong.
"No." Chen Qing shook his head: "But it is the most powerful way for snakes to evolve and live forever. The evil gods of the Southern Barbarians are close to physical collapse, so they want to open the Heavenly Python Palace, find the secret technique of the Heavenly Python, and rebuild it. Let your body evolve.”
"In that case, why didn't you do it in the first place and why did you choose now?"
"There are many reasons, and one of them is the gatekeeper." Chen Qing explained in a low voice: "After the Heavenly Python Palace lost some restrictions, it was sealed by the rebellion of the evil god below. The reason is very simple. He is knowledgeable. The snake warlocks in the world know the ecology of the world best, and they also know very well that these sky pythons will never die and will devour the world sooner or later, so they rebelled and sealed the Sky Python Palace, and the key to the seal should have been stolen by a demon not long ago. master."
"Mrs. Lu?"
"Yes." Chen Qing nodded: "Mrs. Lu has a special bloodline. She has snake language and can communicate with snake spirits in the world. She also has a parasitic vase that can almost guarantee that she will not be captured alive or killed. She is the best candidate for surveillance. I If your guess is correct, the Zhulong Kingdom was besieged in the first place because some snake spirit warlocks got greedy and wanted to open the Heavenly Python Palace, which led to the siege and destruction. The King of Qin who organized all this wanted to restrict the snake spirit warlocks. , so I chose this Mrs. Lu.”
"With a reincarnation demon, especially a reincarnation demon that is almost difficult to kill, and she understands the language of snakes, she can monitor the dynamics of the Nanman side at all times. After all, many snake spirits do not have high IQs. If anyone wants to think about it again, In the Heavenly Python Palace, those snake spirits are easily exposed."
"Dilongdong should be an intelligence organization. Its original purpose was to monitor the snake spirit nobles of the Southern Barbarians, but it was used by the Lu family and became an assassination organization that raised snake spirits."
"Did Mrs. Lu confess these?" Yuchi Feihong couldn't help but ask.
Chen Qing shook his head slightly. The woman could endure all kinds of tortures better than he thought. Even if she didn't say anything, she resented herself quite a lot.
Yuchi Feihong was stunned for a moment, then you said it as if you saw it with your own eyes.
How secretive were the arrangements made by King Qin back then, the real reason for the fall of the Zhulong Kingdom, and the arrangements entrusted to the Lu family?
How does this guy know?
Could it be
An idea popped into Yuchi Feihong's mind, this guy... couldn't be a descendant of King Qin, right?
He shook his head. The top priority seemed not to be about this, but the so-called Heavenly Python Palace in Chen Qing's mouth. It sounded more terrifying than the Dragon Palace. Although the Dragon Palace was cruel, it could still accommodate humans. At most, they could only use humans as slaves. But that day in the Python Palace, was he the lord of destruction?
"Sir, once that kind of thing is turned on, can it still exist in the world?"
"Why doesn't it exist?" Chen Qing rolled her eyes: "It's not like that thing has never been opened. Isn't this world a good place?"
"this"
"Don't think too despairingly," Chen Qing said funnyly: "Those big things are indeed scary, but in our eyes, and for some things, those big things are the best nourishment!"
"ah?"
"You will know later." Chen Qing squinted: "I suspect there is something fishy about this betrayal of the Lu family."
"Naughty?"
"It's impossible that the imperial court doesn't know what the Lu family has mastered. Is there no one to stop the Lu family from heading north together?"
"Um" Yuchi Feihong was silent and whispered: "I heard that the imperial palace in Beijing is controlled by something."
"Do you really think that the Emperor of the Xiao family is under control?"
Yuchi Feihong was silent. He would not have believed it before. He had even admired him before. An emperor with extraordinary courage and great ambitions, how could he not make a sound and be controlled as soon as he said he was being controlled?
After seeing the ancient powers including Bai Yu, he felt that this was not impossible.
Chen Qing shook his head: "It is difficult for ancient powers to invade the present world. They basically rely on tempting powerful people in this world to help unblock them. All ancient things are actually sealed due to human greed, and the more powerful the person, the easier it is to be Temptation, I think that the man is still in charge in the palace now, and the Lu family's trip to the north was probably organized by him! "
"His Majesty wants to open the Heavenly Python Palace?" Yuchi Feihong still couldn't understand: "What is he doing for?"
Chen Qing looked to the east with a gloomy expression. He did have a guess, but he prayed in his heart that it was not true, otherwise the capital would really be a place where no one could enter!
