The surging river is endless, flowing between the mountains and gorges, rolling up bursts of white waves, slapping rocks and hitting reefs, there are stones standing in the water, the stones are porous, the waves pass everywhere, and there is a whimpering sound. Out of the mountain gorge and east, north of the shore, cowhide drum, shirtless strong man, mantle, face painted blue lines, raised drumsticks, the drum beat heavy, as if there is an infinite shock sound from the ground, and the mountain gorge in the whimper, like a song that shakes the mountains and shakes the earth.

The girl dressed in white, barefoot on the cobblestone riverbank, stepping on the wet, dancing, when the arms are raised, the wide sleeves of the dress slide down the shoulders, and the snow-white arms are exposed to the moonlight, like the clear light of the moon.

The girls' snow-white faces are only outlined with blue at the corners of their eyes, their long hair is scattered, and a blue ribbon is used across their foreheads, and the center is a little shiny, and pure white pearls are embellished on it, and the lustrous light occasionally flashes, inexplicably a little more holy.

The torches in the distance were reflected, and some of the fire was shining on the water, sparkling orange and red, and the waves were coming, and the splashes were a little more colorful.

"Woo-" The long tune suddenly sounded, at this moment, the drum stopped, there seemed to be a dull rumbling sound in the ears, but it was already a whimper, many people followed an old man wearing a feather crown to make a whimper, the tone changed several times, and the whimper also turned from time to time, and there were no specific lyrics, but...

It's a sacrifice.

In the midst of the crowd, a boy of about ten years old stood beside his father, and several of his brothers in front of him, their expressions were serious, as if they were completing some solemn and solemn ritual, and the whimpering sound from the chest gathered into the crowd, and the invisible power hovered in the air, as if something in the sky was watching them.

Together with the river in front of them, it became more and more turbulent, as if something was pregnant, so that the sound of the waves was drowned out.

It's a sacrifice!

The boy's eyes lit up, witch!

He tried to feel the power hovering in mid-air, he wanted to understand the relationship, but the spiritual power was especially difficult here, he could feel the existence of the power, but he couldn't communicate, that kind of power seemed to be there for him to see, not ready to let him use it, and the spiritual power couldn't be activated at all.

"The god of water is above, and the descendants of the blood bow down. ”

The old man with the feather crown shouted loudly in the sound of whimpering, and the dancing girls who heard the sound seemed to have received some order, and they jumped forward more and more, and their knees gradually immersed themselves in the water, and the cold water made their bodies cold, and their legs were a little unable to lift up, but they still maintained the movement of their hands, and entered the water step by step, until the water was not overhead...

The boy closed his eyes, and he could feel that after these sacrificial maidens entered the water, the force hovering in mid-air was a little greater, and it already possessed a terrifying coercion, which made those present unconsciously kneel down, and the whimpering sound stopped.

The surroundings were quiet, I don't know when, the sound of the river gushing out of the mountain gorge was long gone, the water waves above the river seemed to be much calmer, and the power in the air gradually disappeared, as if it was really absorbed by the heavens.

As the leader, the old man with the feather crown announced the end of this sacrifice, and the people behind him began to get up one after another.

Standing closest to the old man with the feather crown was Shui Yong, the monarch of Jiang Kingdom.

The old man with the feather crown is the great witch of the Jiang Kingdom, known as the "water witch", also known as the "god witch", which is a bridge of communication between people and gods and ghosts, and this time the sacrifice led by him is also a necessary activity once a year.

Jiang Guo believes in the god of water, with "water" as his surname, and thinks that his family inherits the blood of the god of water, and is the "descendant of the god of water" and "descendant of the god of water", but the particularity of this aspect seems to be able to show only the great witch to be able to show one or two, and other people, I don't know what the monarch is capable of, anyway, everyone else is relatively ordinary in the eyes of the boy, and occasionally the stronger ones may not be nothing.

Jiangguo is a small country living in the gap between many countries, the country is near the river, this river runs through the east and west, flows through many countries, only Jiangguo is sacrificed every year, and depends on this for a living.

If you look at the map, you can see that Jiangguo is a long and narrow riverside country that occupies the north bank of the river, and the total arable land area is not much, and it is not a country dominated by agriculture, and the country is only self-sufficient in food.

This is already a great advantage, there are really not many small countries that can do this, and the advantage of Jiangguo is that the soil of Linjiang is fertile, I don't know if it is really because of the blessing of the water god, the planting land of Linjiang will hardly be eroded by floods, even if it is a summer flood, the damage will only be the west country on the south bank, not their land.

Such a small country, which is only about half of Taiwan's territory in later generations, has a total population of only tens of thousands, which is considered an ordinary level compared to the surrounding small countries, and for those large countries, the national population is about one-third of the military strength, and it is normal for it to be destroyed in the end.

Yes, destroyed.

Every time he crosses over, it will not be a good identity, this time the boy's identity can be regarded as noble, inheriting the bloodline of the most precious descendants of the water god, his mother is the daughter of the current monarch, and Princess Han, one of the only three princesses in the country, his father is the general of the country, the only general, and the person surnamed Shui.

He had three sons before marrying Princess Han, and after Princess Han got married, they gave birth to two more sons, and now the boy is their youngest son, and he is also the youngest son of Princess Han, who was named Shui Zhen by the monarch.

The original owner has such an identity, the monarch is a grandfather, his mother is a princess, and his father is a general, he is simply born to be a winner in life, and it is easy to do anything.

In fact, it is precisely because of this that it is easy to do anything, even if it triggers the difficulty of destroying the country.

In the plot, the original owner has been unruly since he was a child, and he can't look down on the people around him, except for his father, he can still be a little respectful, and the other people, the monarch is weak and incompetent, the brother is cowardly and can be bullied, not to mention the three cousins, in the world environment, they are slightly higher than the domestic servants, and they are naturally slaves for the son-in-law.

Together with the prince set up by the monarch, in the eyes of the original owner, he is just a fool who only knows how to like beauty, in fact, the prince does not have any special talents, and what he likes in his life is indeed beauty, and the women in the palace are famous for being second only to the monarch, and they do not abide by the taboo of Jiang Guo not marrying daughters with foreign surnames, and several children are not born by women with the surname Shui, which means that his descendants are mixed in blood and do not meet the standards of the future monarch.

In this case, the original owner thinks of himself as high, and naturally he will not be willing to bow his head for the prince, the contradiction between the two has grown from childhood to adulthood, and the prince has not paid much attention to it, after all, the original owner does not like someone, and he doesn't even talk to him much, and the prince's status has been determined early, and the monarch's children are not many and few grandchildren, he is the only son, with natural advantages, and there is no sense of crisis.

The original owner developed his own power little by little, at first he liked to attract more attention in front of his parents, so that his biological brother was ignored to almost no sense of existence, and then he showed his excellence in front of the monarch, erudite and talented better than the prince, etc., and finally tried to seize the throne.

It's just that he chose a bad time, and in order to frame the prince, he disregarded the interests of the overall situation, and was finally found an excuse by the big powers to attack directly.

The original owner's own abilities naturally exist, otherwise they wouldn't be liked by everyone, but those abilities are not worth mentioning in the face of the general trend.

The whole country, plus the elderly and children, has a population of more than 10,000 people, and if you want to deal with a large country that can send 100,000 troops, how is it different from using a mantis arm as a car?

The most important thing is that he was busy with the domestic struggle for power and profit, which triggered a conquest of the crown prince, which was regarded as a dispute over the country's capital, diverting everyone's attention, and even his parents were exhausted in this confrontation.

Even the domestic sacrificial water witch was implicated in their controversy and persecuted to death, the original owner of this matter did not hesitate, he thought that the water witch was the guarantee that the prince could reign, as long as the water witch died, there was no one on the prince's side to support it.

This simple idea is really right to a certain extent, because the water witch naturally supports the descendants with the strongest bloodline, and at this point, the prince's bloodline is obviously stronger than the original one.

The original owner didn't know that the so-called magic power was real, so he rashly designed the assassination of the water witch, because it was an assassination from a bloodline person, and when the water witch was caught off guard, this approach was really successful.

The death of the water witch is also one of the irreparable causes and effects of the later destruction of the country, the inheritance of the great witch is passed down from generation to generation, only one person from generation to generation, the disciple of the previous inheritance of the water witch died in a foreign country because of something, he had to re-select the heir, but where is the heir so easy to choose, he originally thought that he had enough time to choose, how did he know that he died like this in the end.

There is no great witch in the country, the most powerful force is equivalent to being abolished, and the manpower and number are not enough, where can there be enough strength.

And the existence of the Great Witch is almost more important to the Jiang State than the monarch, the death of the Great Witch doubled the condemnation of the prince, because the original owner's plan was proper, everyone thought that the Great Witch was dissatisfied with the prince and was killed by the prince first, in this case, the prince has lost the hearts of the people, and similarly, the foundation of the country has also been shaken.

The invasion of the great powers is not only an inevitable trend, but also the last straw that crushed the camel, making the destruction of the country inevitable, the original owner rose up to resist, and finally died in the battle of destroying the country.

Another tragedy.
