Chapter 23: Sacrifice (2)
After arriving at the priest's house, the priest had his companion and Ba Ke Er wait outside, then brought Zhang Fan into his workshop. As soon as they entered, Zhang Fan hurriedly asked the sacrifice:
Priest Uncle, do you know something? For example, where do I come from?
The priest, upon hearing this, said with an expression of understanding:
Of course, you are the Divine Envoy chosen by the Beast God, and I am the person closest to the Beast God, so of course I know about you.
Zhang Fan felt very surprised. What Divine Envoy? What kind of talk is this!
Uncle, I don't know what a Beast God is, nor do I know what a Divine Envoy is, but I am certainly not one!
Child, you should believe what I say; you are the Divine Envoy chosen by the Beast God.
Zhang Fan, after hearing this, still felt it was unbelievable.
Child, I know you are not a person from this planet, and moreover you are a human from Earth, which is tens of thousands of light-years away from our Beastmen Planet. You say, am I right?
Zhang Fan was shocked! How could he know I'm not from the Beastmen Planet? And he also knows I'm from Earth! Most importantly, I am now an alien too! This is totally unscientific, okay?!
Priest Uncle, you know Earth? Then have you seen any other Earthlings besides me? Zhang Fan suddenly asked.
Of course, but he died several years ago; he lived in our tribe for over a hundred years, and it was he who taught us how to make pottery and various weapons. Upon hearing the priest mention this fellow villager, Zhang Fan became somewhat excited and quickly asked:
What's his name? Which part of Earth is he from? Also, is the weaving skill in the tribe also taught by him? Priest Uncle, do you know all of this?
Well, we only know his name is Qin Dong; he is a Divine Envoy selected by the Beast God from Earth and brought here to help us, so we can live better. As for other things, we don't know.
Hearing the priest's words, Zhang Fan couldn't help but feel disheartened. Could I really be some Divine Envoy? But what does that Beast God want me to do by bringing me here? I'm not like the all-powerful male protagonists in novels! Moreover, I can't smelt iron or generate electricity; I can only cook a bit and do some farming.
Oh, I see! But if I am the Divine Envoy you mentioned, what should I actually do to improve your life? Besides cooking, I can only farm; I have no other skills. Could you have gotten it wrong?
How could I possibly be wrong about such an important matter? I said you are the Divine Envoy, so you definitely are! As a Divine Envoy, you will surely make our lives better!
Although I don't know much, for the sake of the tribe I will still do my utmost to make everyone's life better!
Hmm! You just need to have confidence in yourself; do you have any other questions?
No, thank you, Priest Uncle. It's getting late now, so I won't disturb your rest. Goodbye!
Goodbye!
After saying that, Zhang Fan pushed open the door, took ***'s hand and walked out of the priest's house. As soon as he stepped outside, Ba Ke Er transformed into his beast form, letting Zhang Fan climb onto his back. Once Zhang Fan was seated securely, Ba Ke Er spread his wings and slowly flew toward home.
Soon they both returned home. After arriving, Zhang Fan told Ba Ke Er about his origins. At that moment Ba Ke Er finally understood: no wonder Fan Fan refused to say which tribe he was from—it turns out he is not a person from the Beastmen Planet at all, but a human who came from far away Earth! And he is even a Divine Envoy! What a treasure we've found! The Beast God's favor!
