Chapter 198: Sacrifice

Old Madam Qi was dumbfounded when she heard this: "Recruit, recruit?"

When did he get this thought?

Coming back to her senses, Old Madam Qi hurriedly chased out the door: "Yuanzhang!"

But Qi Yuanzhang had already walked away, and only a corner of his clothes was left to blow up and down in the wind.

He came slowly, but he walked quickly.

Mrs. Qi chased to the bottom of the corridor, but was blocked by the wind and rain, and scolded angrily: "This bastard thing, you will leave halfway through the words! I'm afraid you won't take me in your eyes at all!"

Mama Shen listened all the way, and when she saw her gaffe, she hurriedly persuaded her: "Uncle may just mention it casually, but it can't be taken seriously." ”

Old Madam Qi looked at the rain curtain and gritted her teeth: "You look at him like he mentioned it casually, I think he has already made a plan, but he didn't come to discuss with me!"

When Mama Shen heard this, she turned around and made a look.

When all the maids and women standing around her went down, she sighed and said, "Uncle is a child, maybe he will change his mind in the next day." What are you angry with him? ”

She is the old man next to Mrs. Qi, she is old and affectionate, and she dares to say something when she speaks.

Old Madam Qi listened quite helpfully, and looked at her sideways: "Do you really think so?"

Mama Shen touched her neck: "The slave maid thinks that there is still room for turning around in this matter." ”

Old Madam Qi's face turned a little pale: "Speaking of which, he wants to recruit a lot of money, which one is going to be a big deal? This family business that has been accumulated by his ancestors for generations, he doesn't want to leave it to his son, does he want to give it to outsiders?"

"No matter how bad it is, there is still Ding'an! The nephew of the in-law is not better than an outsider?"

Old Madam Qi said a few words, and her heart seemed to be clear: "He must be talking nonsense." ”

But—

"The resignation seems to be true. ”

She pursed her lips as if her mouth was dry.

The Murong family's family business, she is really reluctant to throw it away.

"No, you can't withdraw from your family!" As soon as the thought moved, Mrs. Qi spoke.

Mama Shen stood aside, but hesitated when she heard the words.

The words she had just persuaded were already nonsense, and now if she wanted to continue to persuade her, what else could she persuade? Listening to the sound of the rain, she felt that her head was empty, and her stomach was empty, and she couldn't think of a word more.

......

The afternoon rain became heavier and heavier.

Tai Wei leaned on the window shelf of the library and suddenly sneezed several times in a fit of anger.

Seeing this, the eldest maid hurriedly got up from the pile of books: "Is the girl cold? Don't catch a cold, the slave will go back and get your clothes, right?"

Taiwei has been practicing every morning recently, and she feels that she is physically strong, and she is no longer the Qi Taiwei of the past, where do you need to add clothes.

She waved her hand and motioned for Changxi to continue flipping through the book and ignore herself.

Probably because of the grayness, her nose is always itchy, and it has nothing to do with the cold. Reaching out and rubbing his nose, he closed the scroll in his hand with a slight "click".

There is still no record.

The clue she was looking for didn't seem to exist.

But it's just a story and rumors, and Xue Huaijian doesn't need to trick her.

Since he said that it was written in the book, there must have been.

She just couldn't figure out why there wasn't a more detailed record of such an incident. If there really are immortals in the world, how can no one know?

Obviously, even the story of a snake demon falling in love with a mortal has been turned over and over and written countless books, and countless plays have been arranged, and I can't wait to make everyone in the world recite it backwards.

Why is there no news about the immortals?

Is it because the story of the immortals entering the world is more nonsense and boring than the story of the snake demon?

But if that's the case, how could a figure like the national teacher build a lot of construction because of this, shouting every day to welcome the immortals? If he wants to build a tower and climb the heights to welcome the immortals, he must have at least five points because he believes in the existence of the immortals.

If there are only a few entries in the book, why would he believe it?

No matter how much Taiwei thinks about it, she feels that this thing is strange and cannot be dissected.

There must have been something she had missed.

She pondered, removing another book from the shelf.

When I opened it, it turned out to be the scholar who died holding the pillar.

The scholar was stupid and stupid, and he agreed to elope, but he didn't see anyone coming in the middle of the night, and he didn't even know how to go, so he waited under the bridge until the dawn of the day when the water rose and drowned alive.

The book also praises him, and he keeps his promise, which is extremely touching.

It's really a brain soaked in water, and it's touching.

Such a fool must be praised and recorded again and again, and made up into hundreds of stories to write.

The matter of "immortals", but no one mentions it?

It's weird.

Taiwei flipped through the scroll in her hand with a clattering sound.

She took Changxi and the little maid guarding the library to look at it all day, but she didn't even find any clues, is the book wrong, or is the thing she is looking for wrong?

Suddenly, Changxi exclaimed in the corner.

"What's wrong?" Taiwei put down the book in her hand and strode closer, "Found it?"

Changxi grabbed a slightly yellowed book in his hand, and shook his head when he heard the words: "Not really." ”

Taiwei was stunned: "Yes, no, no, what does it mean?" She walked to Changxi's side and leaned over to look at the spread book.

The handwriting on it is neat, the pen is clear, but the writing is very verbose.

She read it hastily, but she didn't see anything wrong, and couldn't help frowning and asking, "What did you just see?"

Changxi held the book in one hand, and stretched out a thin white index finger with the other hand and pointed it: "Look at this paragraph." ”

"This paragraph......" Taiwei looked at the place of her finger, and was stunned, "What is this?"

- What is written above is actually a sacrificial method.

There was a sudden silence in the library.

Even the sound of breathing was instantly drowned out in the sound of rain outside the window.

Taiwei grabbed the book, took a deep breath, and quickly walked to the window.

How so?

How could such a thing be?

She looked at it carefully with a calm face.

Seeing this, the little guy in the library who had been reading the books silently for a long time leaned over to Changxi curiously and asked quietly, "Sister Changxi, did you find what the girl wanted?"

Changxi's lips trembled, and his voice was weak: "It's not what the girl is looking for." ”

What is written in the book is something stranger than what the girl is looking for!

She gestured to the little servant to silence her.

Outside the house, the sound of rain poured in like thunder.

Taiwei's face was almost on the page.

Slaughter!

Pestilence!

Human sacrifice!

Where is this method of sacrificing and summoning immortals?!

She almost subconsciously thought of the sudden outbreak of the epidemic in Songshan County.

Until she contracted the disease and died, no one knew where the epidemic started, and there was no talk of controlling it. It's a huge Songshan County, those who can escape, and those who can't escape, all of them are dead. Even chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs are no exception.

From the beginning to the end, she thought it was a natural disaster.

It was her who was so unlucky that she contracted the epidemic and died.

But at this moment, she suddenly couldn't be sure.

Whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, who can say?
