Chapter 1382 Sacrifice
In the small courtyard . . .
The vulture paced back and forth: "Since three days later, the lord of the kingdom will sacrifice by the Qianjiang River, then let's directly attack the lord of the kingdom and capture him first." ”
"Nope. I vetoed her method: "I think that we should divide the troops into two groups and observe by the Qianjiang River, looking for an opportunity to subdue the lord of the country, and you will go to the palace of the ghost country with the ghost Gu female corpse to see if you can find the Nine Yin True Scripture." ”
"The Imperial Palace?" the vulture thought about it for a while, and immediately understood my thoughts: "Yes, the lord of the country, the master of the palace, will definitely pour out, and the Nine Yin True Scripture, he is likely to be placed in the palace."
It's just that you can go to Qianjiang alone, can you do it? Why don't you take the female corpse with you?"
I smiled and pointed to my body: "You see, I'm a 'child', and I won't be too conspicuous when I blend in with the crowd. And in this ghost country's palace, there must be Gu worms rampant, you don't understand Gu, only with a female corpse can she break the Gu. ”
The vulture thought for a moment and agreed with my law: "Yes." Okay, then I'll take the female corpse and go to the Ghost Kingdom Palace, you be careful alone. ”
The two of us immediately began to prepare for the sacrifice in three days.
......
Three days later.
I went separate ways with the vulture, I went to the Qianjiang River, and the vulture went to the Ghost Kingdom Palace.
Today, on the edge of the Qianjiang River, there is a crowd of people, and tens of thousands of people from the ghost country are hugging the riverside, waiting for the arrival of the lord of the ghost country.
I pretended to be a child and lurked in the crowd, quietly waiting for the arrival of the lord of the Oni Country.
waited until noon, the lord of the ghost country, and it was too late.
Like most monarchs, the lord of the ghost country is also very particular about pomp, and the guards are like a forest, protecting him in the middle.
Of course, unlike the Central Plains, this Luo ghost country doesn't seem to pay attention to etiquette at all, so after seeing the king, the people don't bow down, but the mountains shout and shout, shouting "Ghost master, ghost master, ghost master!"
Luo's ghost country is a place where strength is respected, everyone here raises Gu, and the Gu technique of the country lord should even be the strongest one in the country.
So it's not surprising that there is a cult of personality.
The lord of the Luo Clan Ghost Country in front of him, his whole body was shrouded in a purple robe, and he couldn't see his face clearly.
After the people cheered, the lord of the country walked to the high platform and spoke: "For thousands of years, the ghost blesses the country!"
His voice, which sounded a little deep, was supposed to be a man in his fifties.
But after hearing his voice, I felt a little strange: this lord of the Luo Clan Ghost Country, listening to it purely from the voice, did not feel full of anger at all, he didn't look like a martial arts master at all, how did he kill Wang Chongyang?
After the lord of the country shouted those eight words, the people below also shouted: "For thousands of years, the ghost blesses the country!"
"For thousands of years, the ghost blesses the country!"
......
The voices came and went, resounding through the sky.
After the people cheered, there was a white-haired old man who looked like a priest, dressed in a white robe, and had a kind face and a fairy demeanor, standing on a high platform with a wooden staff in his hand, and began to recite a strange language.
Presumably, it is a ritual used in the sacrifice.
The strange thing is that when he was reciting, all the people stopped talking and put on a pious appearance, and all listened to him quietly, and for a while, there was no sound.
In this strange state, even I seemed to be infected by its aura, and from the bottom of my heart there was a silent awe, as if standing on that high platform was some ghost god with the power of domination.
Wrong!
I suddenly woke up: this sacrificial text seems to have some kind of "hypnotic" power, which can make people unconsciously indulge in it, be affected by it, and be affected by it!
This thing in the Luo Clan Ghost Country feels quite evil.
I thought about it, secretly guarding in my heart, and at the same time operating the Jiuyang Divine Skill to protect my mind.
When the priest had finished reciting the prayer, he slowly knelt down in a south-west direction.
As soon as he knelt, the lord of the ghost country who followed him also knelt down.
Then all the people knelt down to the southwest.
Then, all of them began to chant a strange language, and for a moment, tens of thousands of voices intertwined.
In the midst of this sound of sacrifice to all peoples, visions appeared.
I saw the river rolling, the waves were surging rapidly, the waves were sweeping, and for a while, the big waves were monstrous.
And in the midst of the big waves, something slowly rises and falls from it.
It was a black box.
I looked carefully, and the box did not appear for no reason, but was carried up by an old turtle about the size of a double bedboard.
The old turtle's body is covered with green moss, and I don't know how old it is.
As soon as the old turtle emerged from the water, several palace guards, with the old priest, propped up the boat and came to its side.
The old priest stood on the boat, and after chanting a few incantations, he reached out and pressed on the black box to open it.
Then, the guards lifted out a cyan jar about a meter high and half a meter wide from the black box.
When they saw this altar, the people on the shore began to rejoice again.
The guards carried the cyan altar back to the high platform, and the ghost lord began to speak again: "Thank you to the ghost mother for giving all beings elixir." ”
"Thank you to the ghost mother for giving us the elixir!"
"Thank you to the ghost mother for giving us the elixir!"
......
One by one, the people, as if they were mad, cried out again.
I looked at these people, and suddenly I felt terrible.
Even if the Daming Kingdom can defeat this Luo Clan Ghost Kingdom at that time, I am afraid that these people will not be able to truly make them surrender to the Daming Kingdom.
No wonder for a long time, neither Tang nor Song has been able to truly rule this area.
The difference in folk customs is too obvious.
Then, if you want to really rule this area, it is estimated that there is only one way: expel all the people here, and then disperse and assimilate!
Only in this way, through the subtlety of time, can they change their minds.
At this time, the white-haired priest also returned to the high platform, but the old turtle in the water did not leave, but continued to carry the box, floating quietly on the water.
Seemingly, what is it waiting for?
The white-haired old priest slowly spoke: "The ghost mother has given us an elixir, and we will also repay the ghost mother." According to the custom, this year, a pair of boys and girls will also be selected and sent into the river to pay tribute to the ghost mother!"
After the words of the sacrifice, the lord of the country bowed slightly to him beside him: "Please also ask the high priest, on behalf of the holy will of the ghost mother, to select a pair of boys and girls on the spot and present them to the ghost mother." ”
Oh?
Pick-up on the spot?
In my heart, a ridiculous thought suddenly floated up: Should it be chosen by me?
