Chapter 366 "Game of the Ancestral Gods" The Disappeared Tomb
"Ancestral God?"

Jiang Qian turned his head pretending to be puzzled, but did not stop: "I haven't heard you mention it before."

"If Brother Jiang hadn't rushed to defect to the official, I still had a chance to warn you."

Ayigul sighed regretfully, and looked into the distance with eyes full of affection:

"But even if you know it, it won't help the competition for the crown prince. 'Ancestral God' is another name for the holy mountain, just like 'sacrifice' is another name for the 'prince prince'. The people of the holy mountain are afraid of the unknown power of the holy mountain, so they call it a god; the people of the holy mountain hope to inherit its power, and send the prince into the holy mountain to obtain gifts through competition."

People choose to worship because they cannot defeat the powerful unknown power, and if they cannot defeat it, they will become one. This is the most common way of thinking on the land of China.

Jiang Qian stopped, and Ayigul also followed Jiang Qian's pace.

An opportunity to correct deviations took shape in Jiang Qian's mind:
"Why is 'Sacrifice' another name for 'Prince Prince'?"

Ayigul was taken aback when she heard the words. She didn't expect Jiang Qian's attention to be so sharp. This was the last question she was willing to answer as a saintess of the holy mountain.

But at this time, she was already Jiang Qian's teammate, so she naturally had no reason to refuse this question.

So he avoided the important point and said lightly: "Is this not easy to understand? Because most of the princes will lose their lives in the competition. The princes who lost their lives are no longer princes. They are just poor victims, so there is a sacrifice."

Jiang Qian nodded calmly and continued to pace forward.

At the same time, he said: "You said that the ancestor god is another name for the sacred mountain. The people of the sacred mountain are afraid of the unknown power of the sacred mountain, so they call it a god. There is a logical problem here."

"What's the problem?" Ayigul secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time had to cheer up.

"It sounds like 'ancestor god' refers to the unknown power that exists in the mountain, not the mountain itself, right?"

"Do not……"

Ayigul's expression gradually became serious:

"The holy mountain itself is the manifestation of that unknown power... I know it's hard to understand, and it's hard for me to describe! But the 'ancestor god' is such an existence, it controls all laws, time, space, elements, phase, cause and effect... As long as it wants, no one can escape its curse. As long as it wants, everyone's past will be exposed by it!"

Speaking of this, Ayigul suddenly changed the topic:
"But do you know? My brother Jiang, Shenshan, does not exist in this world!"

Jiang Qian's expression changed slightly when he heard the words, and then he recovered: "Understood."

"Understood?" Ayigul was puzzled this time.

"I understand why the official licensee has been unable to find out the exact location of Mount Shen."

Jiang Qian sighed softly, and answered as if he was just an outside observer:
"Because it never existed at all, there is no way to trace it, even if it is traced, there will be no results. The sacred mountain does not exist in the real world, and only a few people control the interface between the sacred mountain and the real world. Of course, these people will not stand still like a mountain. You can move and hide as needed, so you can avoid official tracing repeatedly."

"Theoretically, as long as your evasion actions are timely, even if someone else travels the entire west, there will be no gain. Am I right?"

Ayigul remained silent, but her expression had already betrayed her thoughts.

"It is precisely because the location of the holy mountain is not fixed, so you must go back to the holy mountain through the old woman and sand gold. But this is exactly what I don't understand."

Jiang Qian turned to look at Ayigul, and Ayigul also looked at Jiang Qian. The two looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.

"You...what else do you not understand?"

Ayiguli regretted asking this sentence!
She didn't want to know what questions Jiang Qian had, because even if she knew, she couldn't answer them.Not only is it impossible to answer, but it will also destroy the interest alliance they have formed at this stage.

The two were silent with each other for a while, Jiang Qian smiled:

"Let's go. Compared with these, it's better to help me find the second side chess. After winning this competition, we have plenty of time to talk about other things."

Sensitive topics were diverted in this way.

There are some problems that cannot be judged by the other party until the time of meeting.

The focus has returned to the current core contradiction: how to win the current battle for the crown prince.

Until this time, Ayigul finally asked: "Since we want to get the second side chess quickly, will Brother Jiang release the Beastmaster to assist in the search?"

Beastmaster?Uh... Jiang Qian said calmly: "I have my own plan for this, just follow me."

Ayiguli followed the pace with a half understanding.

It's rare that the two are grasshoppers on the same boat. During the interval between traveling together, Jiang Qian had the opportunity to sort out the current clues:
First of all, the realm here is different from the rules of reality. Perhaps after leaping from the window, this place is the territory of the "ancestor god".

The ancestral god means "unknown power", and it is also the power inherited by the master of the holy mountain who won in the end. More specifically, even Ayiguli, who is the saint of the holy mountain, cannot describe it for sure.

Next, the first village and town that wandered after entering this realm received the hint of the rules of the "chess game" and verified the hint in the following experience, and won the "side chess" of the peacock spider Ayiguli.

According to current observations, according to the normal process, Jiang Qian's itinerary should be led by the "Beastmaster", but he can easily find the route only with the map left by his father...

Is it a coincidence?

Jiang Qian didn't think so.

So he wants to verify the validity of the map again.

Of course, even if he doesn't do this, there is no other better choice.Because he avoided the high risk of taking the spoon Gu, he also gave up the convenience of the beast king leading the process.

However, whether the Beastmaster's leadership is a "convenience" or a "disaster" is unknown.In the puzzle related to Shenshan, Jiang Qian was skeptical of anyone's "warning".

Including Ayigul and Da Jiaojiao, who is in an official prison.

This is not because of how crazy they are, and they are unwilling to cooperate even if they die together, but because of insufficient evidence, Jiang Qian cannot ensure that what the two of them firmly believe in must be true and exist.

"Brother Jiang, are we going to hike up the mountain?"

After a while, Ayigul became suspicious of Jiang Qian's "own plan":

"According to this speed, we are far behind the other three princes."

Jiang Qian lifted the shade of the tree in front of him, and made a "stop" gesture: "Stop, there are people ahead."

A few miles ahead of the two of them was a large field.

Above the fields, there are hills.

On the hill, two thin shadows appeared faintly.

Jiang Qian took a closer look and saw that there were two grave mounds, one tall and one short...

"What's wrong?" Ayigul asked in a low voice.

Jiang Qian focused his attention, and the two graves disappeared again...

He subconsciously pointed to the hill and asked Ayigul, "Did you see it?"

"what did you see?"

"grave."

"grave?"

Ayiguli was startled, followed Jiang Qian's expectations, and shook her head in confusion: "No, it's just a hill..."

Speaking of this, Ayiguli's charming and smart eyes gradually widened, looking at Jiang Qian.

The two quickly confirmed their eyes: it's here!
When something goes wrong, there must be a demon.If there is no accident, the second "vice chess" is hidden here.

"Do you know all the saints and saints?" Jiang Qian asked.

"Yes, I will try my best to help you determine the identity of the other party, and you decide whether to choose or not."

"That's work."

After establishing the goal, the two immediately started to act.

Continue to go deeper along the field, looking for traces of human survival and living.

A small lonely figure ran into Jiang Qian's sight again!
This time, Ayigul also noticed it, so she threw the spider thread at the target, but when she pulled it back, she found nothing.

"Is it an illusion created by the 'ancestor god'?" Ayigul was a little annoyed.

In contrast, Jiang Qian was much calmer: "Relax, since you know it might just be an illusion, why should you be confused by the illusion?"

Ayigul suppressed her anger, stroked her cheeks, and sighed softly: "That's right, Brother Jiang still has the strength~"

The two continued to search forward.

Keeping vigilant like this for several hours, I never saw half a figure or any trace of human habitation.

"Are we being tricked?" Ayigul couldn't help muttering.

Jiang Qian smiled indifferently: "The ancestor gods pulled us into this fight to the death, after all, isn't it just to play us?"

Ayigul was startled, but she couldn't refute this point of view.

"Since this is the truth, why are you angry? Don't forget who our opponent is." Jiang Qian reminded calmly.

The two moved on.

After a while, Jiang Qian heard Ayiguli sigh softly: "You really don't look like a human being."

This is Ayigul's most intuitive feeling regardless of other conditions.

The young man in front of him has a clear goal, is calm in dealing with situations, and acts decisively, as if nothing outside can interfere with his emotions or affect his judgment.

Jiang Qian turned his face sideways and said with a smile, "I'll just take it as you are praising me."

Aigul fell silent.

Once upon a time, the other party was still a "puppet" that she could manipulate freely while talking and laughing, but now, she had to rely on the other party's ability to gain a chance of survival in this predicament... Thinking about it, it's really a turn of events!

However, Jiang Qian was able to live in harmony with her without the slightest suspicion and without any obstacles. After thinking about it, it is awe-inspiring.

……

"There is a situation."

Jiang Qian's whispering voice pulled Ayi Guli back from her reverie.

She subconsciously looked in the direction Jiang Qian was looking at: "...the village?"

Away from the bushes, near the mountainside not far away, there are large and small thatched huts with bars and bars. The structure is simple and has two floors: the upper floor is the housing structure for human beings, and the lower floor is for livestock.

Judging from the various household furnishings scattered around the thatched huts, it can be seen that the people here have not yet achieved modernization, and the energy they use is still fire instead of electricity.

Of course, these are not enough to constitute Jiang Qian's so-called "situation".

Overlooking Ayigul, there are many people surrounded by the open space covered by thatched huts in the front row, and they seem to be participating in some kind of ceremony or activity.

"Go, go and have a look," Jiang Qian patted Ayigul on the shoulder, "Don't miss any details."

Therefore, the two "showed their special abilities", walked past the houses in the village, and quietly lurked near the crowd.

Even in the causal mirror image of the ancestor gods, the perception and insight of the licensee are far beyond the reach of ordinary humans.So the two quickly witnessed what happened on the scene.

This is a succession ceremony.

The son of the head of the original village inherited the power of his father who died of illness and became the new owner of the village.

The surrounding villagers followed the instructions of the priest and performed various acts of worship and allegiance. Everyone expressed pious expressions and chanted words in their mouths. The aura conveyed by the whole ceremony was solemn and solemn.

The ceremony went smoothly until the end of the whole process.

The new leader of the village is a middle-aged man in his 30s. He is tall and strong, with dark skin and a majestic walk, like a synonym for "power".

His slightly old wife is serious and dignified, standing by his side with his two sons. The eyes of the mother and son reflect the admiration and pride for their father.

As of now, there is no sign of any major event about to happen in this pristine village.

Behind a certain big tree, a tiny peacock spider crawled out of Jiang Qian's collar, and Ayiguli's question came from Jiang Qian's ear: "They seem to be over, what should we do?"

"Are there any familiar faces here?" Jiang Qian asked.

"I haven't found it yet."

"Stay alert. I'll keep an eye on the new leader. I'll let you know if anything happens."

"Good~"

After explaining to Ayigul, Jiang Qian put on the invisibility armor again and followed the new leader towards his residence.

If the situation is mirrored in karma, then something must be brewing.

Jiang Qian quietly approached the leader's double-story thatched hut, and hid outside the window on the second floor to listen for information.

At this time, the new leader had returned home with the priest and two important "cadres" and closed the door, as if to study something important.His wife quietly went to the kitchen to cook, while the children stayed outside the thatched hut to play.

Jiang Qian stood outside the window and listened intently.

After a while, there was a strange singing in the house.This voice belonged to the priest who presided over the succession ceremony today.

After a while, the singing stopped, and a deep sigh came from the room.

Then, an older cadre said: "This matter presents a serious ominous sign, and the leader needs to consider it carefully."

As soon as the words fell, another young cadre put forward the opposite view: "It's all about human effort! If we can't even protect our women, then what else can we protect?"

"It's not a question of whether to protect or not, but Yuanxi herself... Sigh!" The older cadre sighed again, with unspeakable pain implied in his tone!
"Why not? If it wasn't for the old leader's obedience, could that guy easily abduct the young lady? If something happens, blame it on the weak woman, that's a coward's performance!"

"You know I don't mean that..."

The elder cadre was about to argue, but was stopped by the leader: "Okay! Don't argue any more, I have settled this matter."

"leader……"

……

After a long silence in the room, a man's thick voice came: "There should be a conclusion to this matter, but now is not the time."

"Are you planning to...?"

"As long as that person is not eliminated for a day, it will be very difficult for us to succeed..."

The three began to plot.

Jiang Qian outside the window heard a lot of things. He secretly turned on his spiritual vision to observe the movement in the house.

It was only then that it was discovered unexpectedly that the two children who had been neglected just now had returned to the house at some point, and their behavior was exactly the same as Jiang Qian's. They were sticking their young bodies to the door panel, eavesdropping on the adults' conversation.

But the children were careless after all, and the adults in the room soon discovered their actions.

It's just that the leader's eldest son reacted quickly and escaped quickly, but the younger son who moved slowly was caught by the leader, stretched over and "beaten violently", and the crying and noise immediately alarmed the mistress in the kitchen!

The new leader's wife was eager to protect her son. Regardless of the reason, she knelt down to her husband when she entered the door, in order to forgive the younger son's fault.

At this time, the eldest son had already run away...

Taking advantage of the chaos, Jiang Qian ordered to his neckline: "There is a boy who ran out towards the south of the village. He looks like twelve or thirteen years old. He is the eldest son of the new leader. Keep an eye on him for me."

"Okay~" Ayigul's voice immediately echoed in his ears.

His "side chess" is very cooperative, but Jiang Qian is not in a hurry to be happy, but continues to tell: "Accordingly, you have your own way of doing things, so I only have one request."

"what?"
