Strange legends in medieval Europe

Address:/question/5866599.html/kloc-Vampire legends around 0/4th century In the Middle Ages of Europe, the church publicly acknowledged that vampires did exist. The origin of vampires first appeared in the Christian Bible. Its role is Cain. According to legend, Adam and Eve, the ancestors of mankind, were tempted by Satan, ate the fruit of wisdom, were cursed by God and were expelled from the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve gave birth to Cain and Abel. Cain is in charge of farming and Abel is in charge of grazing. Once, when Cain offered sacrifices to God, he could only offer some vegetables and rice as sacrifices, while Abel offered lambs and other meat as sacrifices. God only favored Abel's sacrifice, which led Cain to be jealous and finally stoned his brother Abel to death. All this did not escape God's eyes, and God called Cain to his side. When asked about the whereabouts of his brother Abel, Cain lied that he didn't know. God listed Cain's actions, and then cursed Cain: "What did you do? There is a voice in your brother's blood crying to me from the ground. Open your mouth slowly and accept your brother's blood from you. Now you will be cursed by this land. When you farm, the land will no longer serve you, and you will drift on the ground. " Cain said to God, "My punishment is too heavy for me. Now you have driven me out of this land, so that I cannot see your face. I will wander on the ground and anyone who meets me will kill me. " God said to him, "Whoever kills Cain will be rewarded sevenfold." So God put a sign on Cain, lest anyone should meet him and kill him. So Cain left Mina of God and went to the land of Nod east of Eden. (From the fourth chapter of Genesis, sentences 10 to 16) Records in the Bible stop here, but it is said that Cain later wandered around the Red Sea and met Lilith who jumped into the Red Sea because of disobedience to God (also known as Satan's lover, and most demons on earth were born by him). He learned to use magic and power with blood from Lilith, and God swore to him "don't kill him", so he gave Cain the condition of eternal life. Using magic and power requires a lot of blood. So Cain became the first vampire (some people think that the first vampire refers to Delith). By the way, there is an interesting thing here, that is, the holy book of prophecy circulated among vampires, the book of Noah, and the place recorded by Cain in the Bible overlap. After becoming vampires, Cain and Lilith gave birth to 13, the third generation vampire, known as "the closest power to God". And these 13 third-generation vampires have evolved into the 13 clan of modern vampires. There is also a legend that this third-generation vampire refers to the human beings in Noah's Ark. When the flood receded, they came out of the ark to wage jihad against the second generation vampires and killed all the second generation vampires. That's it. The third generation of vampires is called "the vampire closest to the power of God". Today, thousands of years later, the blood of vampires has reached 13 to 15 generations. Before the Middle Ages, vampire members, because of their special powers and immortal bodies, could usually become the overlord of one side and even compete for power with each other. It was not until the14th century or so that the inquisition of the Catholic Church discovered the existence of vampires, and then wantonly carried out supplementary killings. Although vampires have super powers, no vampire can stop the threat of cooperation from thousands of mortals at the same time. So the survival of vampires fell into an unprecedented crisis. In order to cope with the bad situation, several vampire clans at that time (about the sixth generation to the eighth generation) had to form an alliance, so the Camarilla (secret party) alliance was born. This is an alliance faction composed of seven clans, and it is also a larger alliance faction so far. When the secret party was founded, it established six strict traditions of commandments, which required the later vampires in the league to abide by forever. The highest purpose of the whole tradition of commandments is to stipulate that vampires must hide in human society and never reveal their identity, so as not to lead to the crisis of vampire survival. This is the origin of the motto "avoiding the world". Another alliance outside the secret party is Sabbat. Although each clan can join the Rubik's Cube, it is mainly controlled by two clans. The Magic Party is Camarilla's old enemy. They don't approve of isolationism. They rule with fear, force and threats. It is said that the Magic Party will bury new vampires alive, arouse their fears, and then control them with rituals and blood ties. Rubik's cube also regards human beings as inferior animals and drives them to kill at will. Secret party member usually calls Sabat "the hand of darkness". In addition, the other four clans who did not join the secret recipe or Rubik's cube usually remained neutral or acted according to circumstances in the struggle between the two alliances. It can be said that there was no record of vampires in ancient times, maybe there was, but it was not found. Why do people think that vampires are mostly set in medieval Europe? This is caused by the earliest and most classic vampire literature. In addition, the standard vampires always live in medieval castles in Europe, for hundreds of years or thousands of years, and vampires are super nostalgic, so they are always reminiscent of the cruel and barbaric dark ages in Europe. And this book is braam stock's The Count of Vampires (Dracula in English). At that time, bram stoker was planning to write this novel. When he was looking up information, he came across the name of the evil archduke. It was later named after this name. Moreover, in the history of Europe, Dracula did exist. He is famous for his cruelty. Prisoners of war often insert a long wooden stick from their hips, then come out from their mouths all the way through their bodies, and then hold the wooden stick high and be tortured to death by prisoners of war. Look at what Judas betrayed the son of God for. That's right 13 Roman silver coin! ! ! ! So there is another saying, Judas, another ancestor of vampires. It should be noted here that the third generation vampires seem to enter hibernation after completing the jihad. After that, there are very few things about vampires. Until about14th century, the Christian church publicly acknowledged the existence of vampires, which led to mass killings by the Inquisition. During this period, the only thing that can be linked to14th century is Judas. Otherwise, vampires can't appear for no reason.
