Chapter 871: Millennium Dryad [5]
In Hua Xi's opinion, this kind of ritual is just a false ceremony, and there is nothing worth paying attention to, however, when he raised his head, he suddenly crashed into Chongxi's deep and serious eyes.
She froze suddenly, and her body slowly lifted up.
He slowly took her hand again, and laughed happily.
If it weren't for such a coincidence, when would he have waited until he could marry her?
Although it was just a false courtesy, it made him so satisfied.
He showed a bewildering smile, and through the pearls shaking in front of him, Hua Xi felt that his eyes were a little flowery.
"Send it to the cave roomβ"
The old man's voice dragged on for a long time, and then, with a few pairs behind him, pushed them into the door next to the altar, and closed it almost immediately.
"Village Chief, the ceremony is complete, and then the tree god will continue to bless us with good weather and a good harvest every year!"
A big man asked, in the eyes of ordinary people, nothing was more important than a good harvest.
That's not about wealth, it's about survival.
"I hope so." The village chief touched his gray beard, sighed and shook his head, "It's just that once such a sacrifice starts, I don't know when it will end?" β
"What do you mean, the village chief is worried, will he sacrifice like this next year? How can we do it, do we still want to go outside and arrest people? If we get the attention of the government or the temple, we're doomed! β
"Hey......" the village chief sighed, speechless for a long time.
Chongxi and Hua Xi, who were pushed into the small door, raised their heads and looked inside the thousand-year-old tree.
It is worthy of cultivating for a thousand years, and the inside of this ancient tree has already condensed into black crystals.
It seems that the ascension to immortality is just around the corner.
There is a bed inside, covered with a red brocade quilt, embroidered with mandarin ducks, and on a table next to it, there is also a combination of wine.
Chongxi walked over, poured two glasses of wine, and picked up a glass with slightly lowered eyes.
"Although it's not a good wine, but on the night of candles in the cave room, won't Xi'er accompany me to drink this glass?"
"It's a long time coming, and there's a lot of time to drink!"
His heart twitched slightly, and the smile on the corner of Chongxi's lips did not change: "The beautiful scenery of a good day, why live up to it?" β
Hua Xi looked at him, the red candle was very bright, reflecting the purple under his eyes, so enchanting.
She walked over, picked up another glass of wine, and touched him gently, "Okay, this glass of wine, I salute you!" β
The crisp sound of the clashing glasses echoed around them, and they each raised their heads and drank the wine from their glasses.
Chongxi's gaze slowly turned to a shadow, and his eyes froze slightly.
Hua Xi also looked over, and at first glance, he was so frightened that he almost threw away the wine glass!
It's scary!
Although the candlelight is not bright, some outlines can still be faintly illuminated inside, but in the shadow, there is a white man standing, staring at them with a pair of green eyes, how can it not be scary?
The man walked out slowly, old and old, and the skin on his face was folded layer by layer, so deep that it could trap a fly.
His gray hair was combed and loose, and he walked tremblingly with a cane, as if he was about to die in the next second.
This is the millennial dryad?
Hua Xi glanced at him up and down, he was so old, I am afraid that he was not looking for boys and girls to marry, but to absorb the essence of their bodies!
