Cosmic Demon

Chapter 93: What to sacrifice? The Four Pillars of God descend (First update!)

"The Four Pillars? Gods?"

Qin Shi pondered and wanted to call out the name directly, but the palace of thought suddenly trembled, preventing him from such a somewhat reckless and unwise behavior.

"They are not even allowed to speak of it. It is really a taboo for the respected person. The standard is too high."

Qin Shi was somewhat confused because Dongxia did not advocate religion or gods.

It is also prohibited to hold large-scale gatherings, sacrifices and other group activities in public places.

Of the four pillars, the only one he had ever heard of was "Shen Ji".

The Dongxia people called the powered armor that could travel through the starry sky and conduct interplanetary activities independently "divine machines", which were later extended to combat weapons.

The most heroic legend in ancient times is that a professional martial artist single-handedly drives a magic machine to behead the enemy general in the midst of thousands of troops and achieve great success.

At that time in Dongxia, private possession of "power armor" was strictly prohibited.

If reported and verified, more than three cases will be considered as treason.

The entire family will be executed and all nine clans will be implicated!
Therefore, the magic machine is also called "Nine Clans Elimination Game".

It is said that "one class is worth three crossbows, and three class members can enter the underworld."

As for the "crossbow" that can rival the divine machine, it was an essential weapon for martial artists in ancient times to assassinate kings and kill their drivers - the Dongfeng Crossbow!

This thing is also called a box gun. It is extremely powerful and can easily penetrate a tank with a single shot.

According to reliable historical records, more than seven emperors died from the Dongfeng Crossbow during the turbulent period.

Even a strong individual with vitality exceeding 100 points would hardly have a chance of survival when facing a box gun with a range of 2,000 meters, a weight of less than 80 kilograms, a bullet caliber of 40 millimeters, and a firing rate of 60 rounds per minute.

However, when defense systems such as the silent force field and hysteresis force field were developed, the Dongfeng crossbow, which was loved by martial artists, was eliminated and completely withdrew from the stage of history.

"He Lanchan relied on the four pillars' attention to break through the divine barrier?"

Qin Shi was extremely surprised. Although he had heard Lao Liang mention the gods' followers and blessings and grace several times, he had never seen one with his own eyes, and he had no idea what the so-called gods looked like.

"Rich people rely on spending money, while poor people rely on adventures. According to Lao Liang, Qi Wuxiang has everything he wants in his life, but He Lanchan has nothing. The latter was able to survive from the garbage area of ​​Yazhou, probably because of good luck."

He continued to consult the incarnation of Taoism - Xiao He Xiao He, how to seek the attention of the four pillars of Dongxia?
The white-haired boy had no expression on his face, like a robot with low intelligence, and read stiffly:
"There are three common paths: holding a secret ritual, summoning ancient relics, and awakening bloodline..."

Qin Shi thought for a moment and asked about the details of the first category.

By the way, Warshin A-meng is really useful!

It can be used for offline leveling and can also act as a search engine.

"The esoteric rituals are divided into twelve levels, and the conditions for achieving them vary according to the needs. The higher the level of the esoteric ritual, the more stringent the conditions, with detailed requirements for materials, venues, and even the weather.

The Four Pillars are everywhere and eternal. If you just seek to see them, or even just put your hands together and pray devoutly, you may get a partial response if you are lucky. "

Listening to the white-haired boy's answer, Qin Shi's mouth twitched. He inexplicably felt like he was being a telemarketer. As long as he made enough calls, the Four Pillars would eventually be willing to answer the call.

Hello, are the four pillar bosses here?

Can you take a look at me!
"Let me see what He Lanchan does."

Qin Shi thought about it and got rid of the stupid idea of ​​shouting "Taiyi/Tianren/Shenji/Zhenlong please give me strength" every day.

He suddenly became very interested in how the young Stone Buddha impressed the four pillars. After all, the latter was born in the garbage area of ​​Yazhou, which was a lower-class environment even worse than the old factory street of Hengzhou.

The incarnation of Taoism opened his eyes and pretended to pick up a pen to write. An old and tattered diary was projected and densely packed tiny handwriting began to appear.

"Praise the soul of the machine! The soul of the divine machine accompanies me, and the soul of the divine machine gives me energy! Today is a fine day, I get up early to work, and take a sip of 95% machine oil to refresh myself! Machinery, what a precise structure, metal, what beautiful characteristics..."

"Taiyi is like the movement of the sun and the moon, and the eternal order makes people addicted. Today, there was a strong wind and light rain. I went home from school and thought of what the priest in the church said. The starry sea is vast. How wonderful it would be if I could devote myself to the great cause of spreading the gospel and praising Taiyi..."

"The gods are the most majestic and magnificent supreme pillars in my mind..."

"As a descendant of a true dragon and a citizen of Dongxia, I am so happy..."

Qin Shi's expression was stiff, as if he had been struck by lightning.

He learned about the various deeds of the Stone Buddha He Lanchan from Lao Liang all day long, and to a certain extent, he had a fan filter and developed a worship mentality.

As a result, after quickly browsing through five or six hundred "diaries" that were similar to short essays, the filter shattered with a click.

Are you getting the response from the four pillars by flattering them?

“Today I am Taiyi’s dog, tomorrow I am a loyal believer of Tianren, and the day after tomorrow I will change my allegiance and cheer for the True Dragon… As the leader of the first ten heroes, and one of the top ten evildoers in the past nine thousand years, Old He is so humble!

As expected, before cheating, one must go through four stages: downfall, forbearance, dormancy, and growth! "

Qin Shi was helpless. He knew that the person who wrote the diary was not a serious person. How could the things written in the diary be the truth?
Thanks to He Lanchan's perseverance, he really attracted the attention of the four pillars, which enabled him to concentrate his Tao nature, see his true self, and break through the divine limit.

"Is there a faster way?"

Qin Shi looked at the incarnation of Taoism.

"Sacrifice."

The white-haired boy replied:
"What the Four Pillars favor, appreciate, recognize, and desire is the living beings themselves. If you can do something that fits their field, they will actively seek you out.

For example, Dr. Yan Tongxuanyan, he created the theory of mind magnetism and the theory of three realms, laying the foundation for the development of modern vitality, the two pillars of divine machine and true dragon, and I wish I could choose him as the Ruler. "

Sacrifice?

What’s the difference between that and selling out yourself!
Do you have anything worth selling?
Qin Shi couldn't help scratching his head and asked again:

"What fields do the four pillars of Dongxia represent?"

The white-haired boy said blankly without any emotion:
"The Way of Taiyi is constant and unchanging. The Way of Heaven and Man prohibits external methods. The Way of Shenji is innovation and creation of saints. The Way of the True Dragon is eternal life."

Qin Shi tried to understand that Taiyi is order, heaven and man are obedience, Shenji is change, and the real dragon is life.

Judging from the literal meaning, these pillars are more inclined towards lawfulness.

"Xiao He, Xiao He, what do you think is the best thing for me to sacrifice? Amazing wisdom, extraordinary diligence, or unrivaled understanding?"

Qin Shi asked.

As another embodiment of Taoism, he fell silent.

If the white-haired boy hadn't lacked the means to express his emotions, he might have raised his middle finger.

Who are you? Don't you have any idea?

Qin Shi was very disappointed when he saw that the incarnation of Taoism remained silent. Even Super Xiao He, who embodied the spirit and aura of a half-step martial god, found it difficult to make a decision.

He thought seriously for a moment, and suddenly thought of the mechanical heart that he had dug out from Ze Ge's chest.

Can this thing be offered as a sacrifice?
……

……

"Brother Qin, I'm in big trouble this time! In order to help you get back the contraband, I offended Chen Ruofu, the head of the Inspection Department. There will be no future for me!"

Gao Haipeng returned home, made a phone call and complained loudly.

He took the risk of provoking Chen Yun because he received a request from Yancheng.

"I already know that Chen Ruofu was indeed too much to humiliate you in public. Let's put it this way, Lao Gao, the Chen and Lin families have absolute control over the urban area, but in Yancheng, the Qin family still has the final say."

The voice on the other end of the phone was steady:
"If Chen Ruofu gives you a hard time, you can take the initiative to apply to the central city for a job transfer and come to Yancheng to work. I guarantee that your treatment will not be bad." Gao Haipeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Qin Renying was quite considerate and did not kick him away after using him.

"The entire Tai'an metropolitan area is controlled by a man named Chen. He is the one who has the final say, making it very difficult for us to get things done. If Chen Ruofu takes advantage of this situation and deliberately bullies me, I will not tolerate it and will be willing to endure it. At worst, I can just move to another place!"

The other end of the phone paused, then continued:

"Lao Gao, can you get in touch with that student? It would be a shame if the contraband fell into his hands. Can you help me get it back? The price is negotiable."

Gao Haipeng frowned, his willingness was not strong:

"That student knows Chen Yun, and is said to be related to the Lin family. The Old Factory Street caused a big disturbance this time, and almost created an electronic demon, which made him famous. From what I see, Chen Ruofu is obviously trying to win him over. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to get involved at this time."

Qin Renying said bluntly:
"Hengzhou will be unsealed soon, and the pioneer families will leave. According to the regulations, Chen, Lin, Qin, and Zheng can take away 10% of the products from three thousand years. Lao Gao, if you are willing to help, the Qin family will not treat you unfairly."

So generous!

It’s so easy to add money!

Gao Haipeng was somewhat moved.

To offend the top leader of Tai'an metropolitan area is equivalent to cutting off the path to advancement. Although he just said it in a tough way, in fact, running to Yancheng is just like retiring early. You need money for your retirement, otherwise your life will not be happy.

"Brother Qin, I've known you for such a long time, and I won't refuse to help you if I can. Let me think of a way to talk to that student and get the things back."

Gao Haipeng readily agreed. To offend someone in officialdom would only mean some suppression and unnecessary anger.

No matter how overbearing Chen Ruofu is, he won't take his own life.

"Old Gao, please put aside your authority. Young people are rebellious. If you analyze the pros and cons clearly, he will naturally know what to do. It is useless to keep that thing in his hands. Some roads are not accessible to ordinary people..."

Qin Ren said in a calm tone:
"If he knows what's happening, I won't bother with Ah Hao's vengeance."

Gao Haipeng then remembered that according to subsequent statistics, the number of casualties in Jiuchang Street was not large.

There were only Qin Lihao and a few of his men.

At this moment, the Qin family in Yancheng is probably holding a funeral.

"Brother Qin is open-minded. To be honest, there is no need to bother with a little kid. The murderer who kidnapped Ajie and murdered Ahao is called Cheng Ze. I have inquired about it. Chen Ruofu plans to send him to the central city for mental examination. He was possessed by an electronic demon, which is very valuable for research."

Gao Haipeng violated the confidentiality regulations and took the initiative to inform the Inspection Department of its arrangements.

"Well, Ah Hao's death will not be in vain. Since the Great Pioneer Period, if the Qin family sheds a drop of blood, the enemy will pay ten heads."

Qin Renying held the microphone and funeral music came from outside the house.

"Old Gao, thank you for taking care of this matter. In any case, I don't want that contraband to be in the hands of an unknown pawn."

Gao Haipeng nodded. This was his token of loyalty before retirement.

I have to rely on this to get rewards.

"After all, I'm just a student."

Gao Haipeng sneered.

He has worked in the Operations Department for so many years, and he is very proficient in speaking official language and showing off his power.

Not to mention students, even the tough thugs and gang members.

He will be obedient after three hits with the electric baton.

……

……

"Minister, urgent call."

Secretary Huo is not only responsible for administrative arrangements, but also for daily care.

It means that one person has to handle multiple tasks including writing, confidentiality and communication.

But Secretary Huo never feels tired. The two most important things for being a top secretary are to follow the right leader and to be deeply trusted.

"It's so late. Who is calling?"

Chen Ruofu's rest time was not early. He was a professional master who had won the title of martial artist. He was full of energy. After finishing his work every day, he would practice for a while to maintain the activity of his blood and flesh.

"The 'Yujie Research Institute' under the General Affairs Office."

Secretary Huo reported.

If it wasn't very important, he wouldn't choose to disturb Chen Ruofu.

"Nether World Research Institute!"

Chen Ruofu was suddenly shocked and his expression became serious.

"what news?"

Yan Tongxuan proposed the Three Realms Theory which is well known to the Dongxia people. He believed that the human body runs through the space between existence and non-existence and is a bridge to the virtual space.

The path of a martial artist is to constantly strengthen his own "essence" to interfere with reality and pry into matter.

Psychics and mechanics, who need to develop their mental strength, place more emphasis on the nurturing and nourishment of "spirituality".

After achieving success in their cultivation, they can often break free from the constraints of the material world by discovering the microscopic world and gaining insight into the rules.

In ancient times, this was called "spiritual wandering".

If one can completely get rid of the mortal body, that is called "corpse transformation into immortality."

Of course, a more scientific statement, which is more in line with the theory of spiritual practice, is that they have broken through to the realm of spiritual grandmasters, becoming powerful conscious beings who can control reality and manipulate energy.

The theory of three realms talks about the relationship between mind, matter and body, and is also the essence of spiritual practice.

The body exists in the material world, but where does the mind exist?
The answer is the underworld.

A sea of ​​imaginary numbers that is difficult to observe but actually exists.

Each administrative star will establish a related research laboratory to closely monitor the changes in the underworld, just like weather forecasts.

Chen Ruofu, wearing slippers, called the research institute from the inspection department's hotline to inquire about the situation.

After understanding it, I was stunned.

"The four pillars, all descended? What a joke! Our Hengzhou is famous for being a psychic desert... where is the location? Old Factory Street!"

Chen Ruofu was stunned, thinking of how He Lanchan's spiritual practice in the past also attracted the attention of the four pillars.

"Impossible! It's only been one night, and the Martial God inheritance has already allowed that kid to touch the threshold? It doesn't make sense, unless He Lanchan himself is almost there!"

He was confused. He had previously taught his daughter to remain calm in times of crisis.

In the blink of an eye, I was stunned by the sudden news.

"Secretary Huo, prepare the car. I'm going to go to Jiuchang Street to see what's going on."

Chen Ruofu took a few deep breaths and muttered to himself:
"Could it be that I have a keen eye and discovered a Martial God seed?"
