Chapter 199 What is Lie Tao (Part 2)

Although Fioni used an extremely positive tone at the beginning and described his former tribe in vicious language, Fioni's voice was quite calm when he began to tell. His expression also softened, and the shapeshifter at this time gave

The person feels as if he is no longer himself, but a bystander who has jumped out of the world and tells what he sees from a distant place.

The name Lietao did not exist at first. Unlike shark teeth, Lietao sea monsters did not have a clear belief in ancient times. They are the aborigines of this sea area and have settled here longer than chasing prey.

It will be a long time before the shark-tooth sea monster comes here. But the interesting thing is

, when Shark Teeth arrived in this area that had not yet been marked by humans as Lost Heart Bay, the Fierce Wave Siren did not drive them away. The reason is simple, because this sea area is rich enough to support two Siren communities. Especially in

The Sharktooth Tribe has a high respect for nature.

As outsiders, the believers of Shark Father quickly integrated into this land. They got along well with the ancestors of Lietao Siren. In addition, the two were the same species. The Shark Teeth naturally believed that their arrival was bringing them with them.

With the mission of spreading the faith of Shark Father, these ignorant compatriots

Embark on the path of hunters. The ancestors of Lietao also had this idea. They were willing to accept the technology and beliefs brought by their foreign kin, so there were songs about the origin of the two siren races. But gradually,

There are still differences between these two water sources from different rivers.

Faith is something that is difficult to explain with simple words. It is different from technology and lifestyle. To say the least, it is somewhat similar to love. So when faith and love are mixed together, problems arise.

A Lie Tao fell in love with a Shark Tooth. This is a good thing. For the two tribes who have become accustomed to each other's existence, a marriage can make their relationship closer, not to mention that all Shark Tooth is the father of Shark.

Loyal believers, if they are together, Father Shark's faith will flow into the fierce waves more smoothly.

But things are impermanent. In Shark Tooth's belief, a proposal requires proof. The suitor must hunt a sea beast alone and bring it to the proposed suitor. This is the case for both men and women. That Lie Tao died on the tip of the sea beast.

Under the teeth, with the longing for a better life, under the gaze of his lover and tribe, he was too small because he prematurely believed that he had a chance to win.

After seeing the prey struggling to death, the God of Hunting no longer favored him. Although this failed marriage was regrettable in Shark Tooth's eyes, it was acceptable. They had long been accustomed to such victims in their history.

The weak are not qualified to leave offspring, and of course they are not qualified to obtain a spouse. But this is another matter in Lie Tao's opinion.

They gradually realized that although they were both sea monsters, the name Shark Tooth was not their names. What followed was a series of conflicts from small to large. The two tribes were sometimes harmonious, sometimes hostile, sometimes indifferent, and sometimes eager.

.This has something to do with the leaders who ruled the tribe at that time. But in the end, such history came to an end in the hands of the first priest who received the revelation of the Tide Lady. From then on, the Fiery Sea Monsters had their own beliefs, their own

God's house has its own rules.

"Daughter of the Full Moon, this is what the Fiery Sea Monsters called their first high priest. It is said that this priest received the revelation from the Tide Lady in the turbulent tides on the night of the full moon." Fioni said and looked at it.

Overhead, above the coral forest, cast on the sea

The sun is swaying due to the surging wind and waves, "The priesthood of Lady Tide is not limited to women, but she seems to prefer women. Throughout the history of Lietao, there are only a handful of male priests, and as a man, he became the high priest.

Even less so."

Since the Daughter of the Full Moon announced the existence of the Tide Lady and her will, more than thirty chief priests have changed between the current chief priest. Thanks to the preservation of leaders of each generation by religion, Fioni

We can rely on these records to trace the origin of Lie Tao's belief. At the same time, he also noticed some changes in his research on history.

That is the belief in the Tide Lady. This does not mean that the Lie Tao people have changed the gods they believe in. They only believe in this one goddess from the beginning to the end, yes. But in the sacrifice to this goddess and the worship of this goddess

There have been major changes in the doctrines and rituals used by the lady. This change is the main reason that stimulated Fioni to awaken from the identity of a violent sea monster.

"The first human sacrifice in history came from the ninth high priest, who happened to be a male." Fioni's expression became serious, losing the calm and relaxed look he had when he told the story before. "

The reason for the sacrifice was that a prisoner had committed a serious crime, mostly related to blasphemy. Then the sea area suffered from disasters for several years. A large number of fish died, and the dark yellow seawater emerged from the depths of the abyss.

If it surges up, anyone who comes in contact with it will either die or be disabled. Now think about it

, in your human terms, it should be a disaster caused by the eruption of an undersea volcano. But no matter what the truth of the disaster was, the source of the disaster pointed to the prisoner. So the high priest at the time made an unprecedented decision,

On the day of the full moon, he executed the prisoner. It was not an ordinary death penalty. He tied the prisoner to a flat rock, and in the shallow sea where the moonlight could illuminate, he cut open the chest with a stone knife and cut out the still beating heart.

Dedicated to the goddess."

So the disaster subsided. It didn't matter whether it was a mistake or an accident, even if it was really the hope of the lady of the tide. The precedent has been opened, and the mud has overflowed from the abyss. Since then, human sacrifice has begun to be regarded as

The most direct way to appease the wrath of gods or please them

In the beginning, only sinners were sacrificed, and they sacrificed their lives to atone for their sins. Although the method was a little cruel, it was still reasonable. But later, things started to get out of control. I don’t know when they started to be sacrificed to the goddess.

Such an honor, at least in the eyes of the priests.

Sacrifices, sacrifices, more and more sacrifices, more and more sacrifices. People think that the fierceness of Lietao comes from their indomitable momentum like the sea tide. But in this state, Lietao's violent changes

It became an evil fire that grew stronger and stronger. The priests used the goddess's

As nominal sacrifices, the creatures they offered included sea monsters and humans. The Tide Lady may also be a cruel god, or she may not have understood the state of her believers at all. She accepted these sacrifices.

, and gave the priests approval.

"I saw a sacrifice with my own eyes. The sacrifice tied to the altar was laughing, the priest holding a stone knife was laughing, and a voice coming from the tide was also laughing. They called this a sacrifice,

The trinity of priests and sacrifices. But I only saw a group of children addicted to violence

And the guardians who instigated and encouraged them to continue their atrocities." The shapeshifter's tone was unprecedentedly serious. The sacrifice he mentioned was a nightmare that was destined to haunt him for the rest of his life. "I thought that such a sacrifice would not last too long. I was wrong.

.They offer sacrifices to the full moon and the lunar eclipse.

, every state of the moon can be a reason for them to sacrifice. As early as when they allied with the Witches, they would have planned to lead some ships to the reef, let them sink, and capture the crew members as sacrifices. The big witch or

Either you don’t know or you acquiesce to this.

The proportion of sacrifice. And when I went back this time, I confirmed one thing. The bloodbath of shark teeth was also a sacrifice. They have gone crazy, from top to bottom, from old to young. The believers are driven crazy
