Chapter 266 Argris
·
Ying Jie Bi Ye Sheng
When a person is on the verge of collapse, as long as someone is willing to lend a helping hand... Even if he knows that this is another big pit at this time, he will choose to jump into it without hesitation, because he has nothing else to do. choose.
Without him, it is human nature to struggle and save oneself...
So, this is the time for Carlo, as long as the export is solicited, then there is a high probability...the high probability will not be successful, because the high priest, or the entire Bika tribe, after knowing the truth of all this, they What is most needed is not a ruler in the traditional sense.
Instead, a new, more "powerful" faith is needed that can replace the "temple"!
The high priest is not a fool, indeed, his faith has collapsed, and he is indeed in grief, but the lives of him and Bika's people are not only faith.
In other words, belief is only one aspect of the life of the Bika people. Even, when one day, this belief that has been maintained for thousands of years really disappears, but in fact, it does not affect their current life...
Perhaps, on the day of disappearance, some people will have greater mood swings, but that is only temporary, and they will return to life after all.
Therefore, as the "smart man" high priest, although he looks broken on the surface, deep down, he is also thinking about himself and the future of the tribe.
He was thinking, what kind of purpose did these Qinghai people have, and how did they do it? In Qinghai, which is [-] meters below, they can know their Bika's "temple" like the back of their hands. It's all too incredible.
But vaguely, he had an immature idea hovering in his heart. Perhaps, perhaps, their ancestors on the moon did not only leave Kongdao alone. They even had their own compatriots in Qinghai.
Thinking of this, the high priest's mind became active...
"My name is Argris, and I am over a hundred years old now!"
"My destiny, including my lineage, is for the "temple", even if the "temple" is no longer our "temple" belonging to Bika, but if you insist on taking it away, you can take it away. Take the life of the old man with you..."
The high priest who came back to his senses, or Agris, with a firm expression, rushed to speak before Carlo, and, from the tone of his voice, it was clear that the old high priest was not joking...
"High Priest, oh no, Mr. Argris."
"Let's talk about the facts. You Bika have worshiped the "temple" for thousands of years. In the end, what did you get?"
"us……"
Although the high priest didn't know what Carlo wanted to express, he subconsciously wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Carlo who continued to speak.
"Mr. Argris, I know what you want to say. It is a "gift from God", that is, a devil fruit. Indeed, a devil fruit is a very rare item.
Whether it is the sky island or our sea, the value is at least the least, more than [-] million Berries, and more importantly, he can change a person's fate..."
"But in fact, your Bika tribe has provided energy for the "temple" for generations, and it has indeed given back to you the "devil fruit ability", but as a result, has your Bika tribe ever changed in the slightest? Any signs of growth?"
"This……"
Argris had calmed down at this time, and followed Carlo's statement and angle to think about the problem. In the end, the answer he came up with was that what Carlo said was indeed correct.
Historically, in the era when the "gift from the gods" was exported stably, their Bika rulers, or "high priests" were extremely powerful, so the actual rulers of the tribe who were not qualified to accept the "gift from the gods"— patriarch.
It was soon emptied, and after several generations of powerful high priests suppressed him, he even abolished this position directly. Since then, in the Bika tribe, no matter it is practical or related to sacrifices, they have become high priests. authority.
The first thing the high priest did after his family became dominant was to remove the "thorns" in the tribe, and the second thing was to use "brainwashing" and the tradition of "moon" worship to strengthen This ideology and belief is used to unify the thoughts of the people of the tribe and consolidate their own status.
In this way, Bika transitioned from being jointly in power with the patriarch and the high priest to a situation where the high priest's family dominates. However, the real development came to an abrupt end at this moment.
Sky Island does not have enough resources to start foreign wars. Even if Bika achieves the complete "unification" of rights and ideas, there is no way to develop externally. Instead, because there is no competition, it stops developing...
"Devil fruits are certainly rare, but given our status in Qinghai, they are not particularly rare. If nothing else, there are quite a few devil fruits in our country's stockpile alone.
I said this not to show off, but to tell you that if it was just for a devil fruit, we would not have targeted your Bika tribe. As for the change of ownership of the "temple", to be honest, we did not expect it among. "
Carlo finished speaking calmly, and then turned his gaze to High Priest Agris, who was always sitting cross-legged on the ground. His eyes were sincere, and there was no trace of lies in his words.
In fact, Argris believed what he said...
Just when Carlo had just come to the area of the temple to speak, Argris was already watching them from a distance, and Argris knew the general idea of their conversation.
From their conversation at that time, we can know that they don't know anything about the "temple". In addition, Carlo did say that if it is not necessary, try not to use the "temple" of the Bika people as much as possible. sabotage, etc.
But just like that, Argris was even more "curious", what was the purpose of the other party's sky island, why did they focus on their Bika, and how did they do it, so that they could easily let them enshrine the temple for thousands of years ...
Could it be that the reason why the other party came to Bika was really because of the little girl Yula who left Bika decades ago?As for everything else that happened, was it really just a coincidence?
Argris couldn't believe it, and didn't want to believe it.
Argris chose to remain silent, and he really thought about how he should ask this matter, because, as a loser, he was not qualified to ask any questions.
That being the case, he can only wait for the other party to speak out on his own initiative. If the other party does not say what he wants to hear, he can only keep silent, that's all.
Sure enough, next, Carlo seemed to know what he was thinking at this moment, and took the initiative to tell him the most "curious", the answer he wanted to get the most.
That is the cause and effect of the "temple" incident.
