only god

Chapter 31 Departure
A arduous trek that ends at the borders of the world.

None of the priests knew where that place was, nor why the prophet Yaar suddenly announced that he would leave the kingdom and go to a far place where no one had ever set foot.

God's guidance, God's revelation... Concise and clear words cannot resolve the doubts of the priests.

"Prophet, why don't you let someone else go for you...you are old."

A priest stepped forward and asked puzzledly:
"Look at your body...Your waist is already bent, just stay in the regular garden full of golden wheat."

Another old priest who was almost the same age as Yar came up and persuaded him reluctantly:
"Yar, I'm just like you. Others mistakenly think we are old, but I know that at our age, we have done enough for future generations, and we have no strength, so we have to stay where we are. Now...why do you Want to go to a place so far away that you can’t return?”

In addition to good-natured persuasion, those young priests who do not follow the prophet or think that the prophet is pedantic, they not only do not understand, but also secretly ridicule and ridicule Yar's overreach, and even the most heroic hunters in the kingdom cannot open up places. How can an old man reach that distant end.

Yar looked at all kinds of people, puzzled, sad, and sympathetic...I don't know how many people felt that he was dazzled by enthusiasm and forgot how old he was.

The Prophet left only one sentence:
"As a chosen one, I am destined to bear witness to God's story."

.....................

Yar and Jalesto, father and son, are going on this journey.

They don't know what they will encounter on this journey, and they can't be sure whether there is really an absolute answer waiting for them at the end of the journey.

Alesto, who is good at doubt, is agitated by this.

After a while, Jalesto stood up and loudly argued the feasibility of this journey. After a while, he sat down abruptly and counted the suspicious places in detail... He often fell into silence at one moment, and spoke loudly the next second. Berate yourself for thinking.

He felt like he was being driven into a lunatic.

Compared with the eldest son, Yar was much calmer.

With the help of his wife and servants, Yar quickly packed up all his luggage. In fact, for the Logos people who were still in the Polished Stone Age, there were not many things that needed to be carried on a journey.

Yar inspected the luggage, and then slowly walked to the restless eldest son,
"God told us when we left, to go to the farthest river in the kingdom as soon as we are ready."

Alesto looked up now, clutching his hair in agitation.

"I know, father."

Jalesto said impatiently, Er, he noticed the strange calmness on Yar's face, and asked:
"Why are you not worried at all?"

Al just said:
"You have to have faith in God, Jaresto. I know, you don't go up to the mountain to see God many times like me, you don't know Him, you don't know Him, so you have so many doubts."

"Isn't it okay to have doubts?"

Jalesto retorted.

He stroked the bone knife in his arms, which was a gift from his mother.

Al shook his head, noncommittal.

This kind of dialogue has happened many times between father and son, and after Yar gradually aged, the prophet kept silent more and more times.

Alesto wondered whether his father's silence was due to the inability to refute it, or to the insignificance of contradicting himself.

On the day Ar and Aresto left the kingdom and embarked on a journey, the king of Sabor did not receive the pair of priests and his son.

It is impossible to know whether King Sabo never knew that the two were going on a journey, or whether he deliberately refused to meet them.

The two of them left when the sky was dark and the sun had not yet risen, so there were not many Logosians to see them off along the way, and the prosperous scene on the day of seeking death did not reappear after all.

Leaving the core area of ​​the kingdom, Yar looked back at the stone palace on the ground for the last time. As they went away, the outline of the palace slowly disappeared in the cascading forest.

Chen Yi stood on the farthest river in the kingdom, with unicorns drinking with their heads bowed beside it. The riverside was covered with tender green grass, and the wide and gentle current washed the fine sand on the bank.

He looked towards the border of the world, and his gaze traveled through an unimaginable distance to the ancient chaos.

"The great flood is bound to come."

Chen Yi recalled the future she saw in the crimson stars, all those wailing and crying were vivid in her mind.

At that time, a pale prehistoric rainstorm will suddenly fall from the sky, and most of the lives will die, only a few floating on the water can survive.The great flood will sink most of the land to the bottom of the sea, which is a world-changing change. The original mountains on the ground will turn into ocean reefs in the blink of an eye, and the original cliffs will also be submerged into the abyss of the sea.

He raised his hand and looked at the severed horn of a narwhal in his palm.

"Since the narwhal family can manipulate sea water..."

Chen Yi recalled the stranded narwhal,
"Then, when disaster strikes, the narwhals can provide shelter for the Logosians."

Over the past few days, I have carefully studied my own strength.

In other words, I already know myself well.

God stood by the river, quietly waiting.

Not long after, there was a rustling sound of leaves among the densely packed woods not far away.

When the unicorns by the river heard the rustling sound, they immediately raised their vigilance. Then, under the leader's cry, almost all the unicorns stopped drinking for an instant, then turned their heads, Disappeared in the forest in the blink of an eye.

Almost at the same time, Ar and Alesto came out of the woods.

When Chen Yi saw the father and son, she was relieved and a smile appeared on her face.

"God, we are here, how should we set off next?"

Al stepped forward and asked God.

The god turned around and pointed to the towering giant tree beside the river.

Yar and Jalesto looked over, and saw that the god walked slowly to the edge of the giant log, and then raised his hand lightly, the log broke with a loud noise from the inside to the outside, and crashed to the ground.

The father and son looked at all this in amazement, the fracture was smooth.

But the movement of God has not stopped yet, He pressed his hand on the broken giant wood, a little light fell from the palm of his hand, and saw the bark fall off layer by layer out of thin air, and the thick wood began to separate.

Jalesto watched the giant tree with its head up and its tail up. The boat was shaped like a shuttle, with both ends small and sharp, and the protruding horns were upturned. The kingdom of Logos was still in the land area, and they still Having never been in contact with the sea, the young priest is still keenly aware that this is some kind of special raft, which can be made from just one piece of wood.

"Get in this canoe."
