Chapter 194: Ritual: Dragon's Pure Fire
Fourth, the mood at the moment is also very delicate.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or an illusion...... Every time he saw this honey-haired sage, he would feel a strong impact on his three views-
Are you guys from the other world so good at playing?
How do you feel a little more open than the earth......
But it seems to be normal too.
After all, in this world, there are ways to change one's appearance, one's gender, or even one's race. And it's not terribly difficult.
Although the various technologies in this world are still roughly stuck in the 15th to 19th centuries of the earth...... But this kind of technology of changing bodies at will has left the earth technology far behind.
- Even if you don't get married, you can use the ritual of the cup to create offspring and continue the family's bloodline.
The concept of marriage and transcendent love, which is brought about by many convenient rituals and extraordinary powers, is ...... to some extent Perhaps much more advanced and open than the players on Earth.
“…… However," the four darkened suddenly realized something, "The [Eternal Daughter], she was just trying to hurt me with the curse of the 'Moth Knot'.
"Does that mean that she is very proficient in the rituals of the moth realm......
"You actually want to ask if she was transformed from a man back then."
Knowing the true thoughts of the four dark carvings, the Sage couldn't help but laugh: "Right? ”
“…… This is actually a reasonable speculation. ”
Four whispered.
The Sage couldn't help laughing, rubbing Si Yin's hair vigorously, and stirring it up, "That's what I told you. Will I not know?
"It's not surprising that Ingrid would use the ritual of the mother moth. In the ritual of the Mother Moth and the Silent Lady, the common requirement is that the ritual must be female.
"For more demanding ceremonies, it will also require that 'the ceremonist must be a virgin' or 'the ceremonist must be a mother of three children,' or even 'the ceremonist must have had an abortion' or 'never had an abortion' or something like that.
"Like Mr. Yao's rituals, half of them must be performed by men—Mr. Yao's rituals are either performed by boys or by strong and healthy men. Therefore, almost all the priests in Mr. Yao's temple are men...... More than eighty percent of the priesthood of the mother of moths are women of different ages. ”
I see.
The four nodded clearly.
Therefore, in the realm of the sun and the realm of moths, there will be rituals about changing genders...... Because in their high-level rituals, there is a requirement for gender.
And this means that there are some ritual preconditions that are necessarily in conflict with each other.
The priests of the temple can easily find the right person to perform the ritual to help each other when using their own rituals—to meet each other's ritual needs.
And the wild ritual masters, it is not easy to achieve such conditions. That's why they span multiple realms and master different types of rituals.
"And I don't care if Ingrid was originally male or female......"
The honey-haired sage narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the dome that shone with a faint glow, and muttered in a low voice, "It's all over anyway." That's none of my business. ”
What do you say...... There's a lot of stories in it.
Fourth, his eyes moved slightly.
He was actually quite curious about the specific content of this gossip. But he knew how to read words and looks—he sensed that Henry Worden was not in a good mood.
If you continue to ask questions at this time, it may indeed advance the plot, but it may also lose a lot of favor.
Unlike Liquor, the Four Darks are the kind of players who tend to be conservative. It is more important to continue to maintain friendly relations with the sages than to satisfy one's own gossip psychology.
"Okay, after I leave, she shouldn't be attacking you anymore."
The young sage gently reassured, "If you are still not at ease...... I'll teach you a ritual of the flint realm. With this ritual, you will definitely not be cursed by her. ”
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but show a smile and winked at Si Dark: "You should be ...... now Or chasteness, right? ”
“…… Well. ”
Si Dark took a deep breath and nodded sullenly.
Generally speaking...... He shouldn't feel any discomfort when questioned like this by someone of the same sex.
But when he learned that the sage named "Henry Worden" was once an abstinent female Grail Knight, the four dark moments suddenly had a "big sister" hallucination in him.
Coupled with the fact that this sage has a rather familiar hair color......
When the Sage spoke to him, he could always visualize a girl with the same honey-colored hair, but with stars in her eyes and a remote control in her hand.
If Henry had been a woman, he would probably have looked like that......
"There's nothing to be shy about, boy."
The Sage saw the embarrassment of the four dark carvings, and couldn't help but laugh.
His left hand was in his pocket, and his right hand rubbed his hair vigorously: "Chastity is not a mistake. Living a chaotic private life in order to prove that you are popular is not a commendable act.
"The glass-bearer once said that abstinence is a virtue."
The young sage said softly: "'Love and lust are not the same way - you need to love others and abstain from lust', 'Lust is a heart-eating monster, only the fierce can control it'.
Although many people believe that the believers of the cup bearers are mostly indulgent fanatics. But in fact, the glass-bearer teaches us to abstain from sexuality...... Only a strong and powerful soul should let go of its desires.
"It's just that there are some people who have some deviations in their perception of themselves. They think they're good enough...... But they are not enough to control their desires, but they are controlled by them.
"It is the will of our Lord that for these people they should die because they cannot control their uncontrollable desires; And if they grow from this process and gradually regain their self and peace of mind, then they will become 'fierce ones'. ”
Causal cycles. Go with the flow.
Fourth, the dark engraved thoughtful.
I didn't expect the cup bearer to be such a Buddhist god......
That's why the glass-bearer ignored the desperate cry of her Christians who had died of greed—that the calamity caused by uncontrollable desires was a predetermined end.
"The glass-bearer is really a god of contradictions......"
Four muttered.
The Sage was not angry: "Yes. The contradiction between love and lust, between abstinence and indulgence, is the charm of our Lord's way. We at the Knights of the Grail believe that 'the self alone is the answer to the self'.
"Self-persuasion, self-depravity, self-torture, self-redemption - overcoming the immature self and firmly controlling desires in the hands is the way to hold the cup."
He gently patted Si Yanke's shoulder: "The love between men and women doesn't need to be shy away, but it's not worth boasting about. Don't choose a love that is destined to be short and unhappy for the sake of empty 'face'.
"That's the depravity of the ego and the harm to others. If you can understand this truth, then I can teach you this ritual as a kind of inheritance. ”
The Sage was a little nostalgic: "Because when I was given this ceremony, I was also taught by an elder like this. ”
“…… What ritual? ”
"This is a high ceremony for the flint...... It can only be used by chaste and healthy youths, and it is called "Dragon's Pure Fire". The flint father favored chaste, healthy, and strong men. ”
The Sage took a deep breath and said slowly, "You need to extinguish all artificial light sources in the surrounding visual range. Neither green fire nor black fire, nor charcoal fire nor firewood are allowed.
"Then in the open night, he poured his own blood on the iron and put the iron on the iron felt and struck it, while reciting with his mouth -
"[This is not a golden flint, nor a wooden flint, this is a dragon flint. The dragon lives with blood flint, iron flint, and fire with fire——]
Then the fire is lit on the iron...... This flame cannot be channeled by wood or grass, but can be channelled into the wine pool. The more light sources are extinguished around and the stronger and chaste the youth, the longer the pure fire will last. Cursed or sick people and animals can be burned from their bodies by removing their clothes and walking over the pure fire.
"This is an absolute ritual that can dispel almost all curses. But only healthy and strong men can withstand this power...... If others are dispelled by this ritual, their skin will be burned by the pure fire, and it will take several days to recover from the complete darkness.
"It is important to note that this ritual cannot be used on the elderly, otherwise there is a high probability that it will lead to sudden death...... And it must never be used to burn the corpses of others. As soon as you direct the Pure Fire to the corpse, you will permanently lose the right to use the Pure Fire Ritual and may offend the followers of the Suifu Father. ”
The young man grimaced and said seriously, "Do you understand, boy?" Pure fire is pretty serious stuff......"
"I've got it all right."
Si Darkly nodded slowly.
- This is the ritual of the Holy Brother Shuang......
