Wangdui still looked smiling and amiable, but his expression was a little different from that of Elder Gyatso beside him.

Obviously, he was reluctant to welcome it, but his face was forced to endure it, and he was faintly a little impatient.

made Shen Nishang feel a little strange.

But since people don't like it, Shen Nishang naturally won't be in a hurry to care.

After a few words of greeting, Wangdui politely asked, why didn't the others come together, Shen Nishang also replied a few words reservedly, Wangdui smiled and said a few words, "Don't be restrained, just be your own family" and so on, after a few words of hospitality etiquette, let Dunzhu arrange a rest place for the two.

Dunzhu led the two to a cave at the foot of the mountain, and the two found that in addition to the three large caves on the mountainside, there were also several caves at the foot of the mountain.

Roughly used as a temporary shelter, the cave is neither large nor deep, the size of a room and a half.

The location is still relatively neat and clean, and the cave is relatively warm because it is close to the hot spring, and the reason why they didn't find it earlier is that the search is not detailed enough, and the second is that the entrance of the cave is covered by dense vines, which is easy to ignore.

After Dunzhu left, Luo Cai looked at Shen Nisheng and showed doubts: "They actually moved everyone back, you say, what kind of idea is this, and they actually invite us to celebrate the New Year with them?"

"Since he didn't mention it, let's just assume that we don't know. Shen Nishang also felt quite weird, groaning and shaking her head, but it is better for the other party to be willing to take the initiative than to be alienated, and take it as a good intention first, "If you come, you will be safe." Let's see. ”

Luo Cai nodded slowly, and suddenly raised his head: "No, did they hear Zheng Shizi when he came back, did they know about Changsheng's disappearance?"

Shen Nishang frowned, and then thoughtfully.

Luo Cai's words are very likely.

The few of them returned to the other side earlier, and although the Snow Clan had no ill will towards them, they were still on guard, so they would definitely send someone to monitor the movements. Zheng Shizi came back to deliver the message, and naturally he couldn't escape the eyes and ears of the other party.

And Mu Qing disappeared in the range of Tianzhu Mountain, that is, in the main branch of the Snow Clan, their people will guess whether it is related to this branch, and the mind of Wangdui will naturally not miss this possibility.

In this way, it makes sense, Wangdui's sudden invitation is only related to this branch.

Tenzin's accession to the throne and the unilateral severance of contact with the branch were indeed unacceptable to the branch.

And the branch swore that it could not enter the scope of the branch, and lost the right to take the initiative to contact, and now if Mu Qing's disappearance is related to Tenzin's side, and he heard the news about Gongga, Tenzin's side said that he would not take the initiative to come.

If the other party takes the initiative to meet, even if they can't break the ice in the end, at least they can meet, and there is always hope.

No wonder, Gatso Fang looked strange, less obscure but a little more inexplicable.

"It should have something to do with that. Thinking about it, Shen Nishang nodded, shook her head and sighed, "...... It's hard enough. ”

Whether Muqing's loss of contact has anything to do with this branch is still uncertain.

Even if there were, would this branch take the initiative to come as they expected...... It's all unknown.

I refuse to give up even the slightest hope, which is embarrassing.

Luo Cai also understood Shen Nisheng's sigh, but thinking that his current situation was not much better, things were stagnant, and the road ahead was boundless, so his sympathy for the Snow Clan was inevitably two points less, and he shook his head in the direction of the cave: "Girl, do you want to go out for a walk together?"

Shen Nishang shook her head and refused, and Luo Cai flicked his sleeves and went out by himself.

Seeing Luo Cai leave, Shen Nishang put away her smile, stood silently for a moment, and walked into the depths.

There is a fire in the deepest part of the cave, and there are animal skin pads on the side of the fire.

Meditate with your knees crossed, your eyes closed.

People often say that things are done by people, but there is really nothing to be done, and they can only meditate.

As soon as he settled for most of the day, Dunzhu came to send a dinner at dusk, and Luo Cai was happy, and he didn't see anyone all day, Dunzhu said that Luo Cai was with the clansmen, and Shen Nishang didn't ask more.

After dinner, it was dark.

Outside the cave was suddenly quiet, and I woke up from the meditation again, only to feel that the four fields were quiet, and there was a feeling of silence, and the footsteps in the daytime, the voices of people, and the noise of children, were all heard.

Only the whirring sound of the wind, brushing the mouth of the cave, occasionally blowing.

Shen Nishang put on a big coat and walked out of the cave, but he was stunned.

The huge flat ground outside the cave was densely packed with the figures of the Snow Clan.

Not only on the flat ground at the foot of the mountain, but also on the hot springs, and further up, from the foot of the mountain to the sacrificial cave halfway up the mountainside, on the winding mountain road, there are all the tall figures of the Snow Clan crawling on the ground.

Men, women, children, women, children, and children, all closed their eyes tightly, lying on their backs on the ground, their movements were uniform, and there was no sound of sound, indescribable piety and solemnity!

As far as the eye could see, the tall figures were all huddled tightly, pressing their entire bodies against the ground.

The scene is shocking!

Shen Nishang was stunned!

The snow reflects the light of the stars and the moon, and the scene in front of the cave halfway up the mountain is full of shadows, and it is not very real.

In front of the sacrificial cave, there is a large stone altar that should have been set up today, and a few items are faintly displayed on it.

In front of the altar, the old figure of Wangdui stood in the forefront, and the simple chanting sound came intermittently, listening to the ears, only to feel the ancient desolation, and the aftertaste was leisurely.

The Snow Clan is supposed to be holding a sacrifice.

Chinese New Year's Eve, the end of the year, is also the beginning of the year.

Such a grand scene, you don't need to ask and know, it should be a very important sacrifice.

Shen Nishang was about to retreat into the cave, but was grabbed by Luo Cai, who appeared on his side at some point.

Luo Cai's voice was extremely low: "Don't go, watch first." ”

Shen Nishang looked at each other suspiciously.

The Snow Clan Festival, although people didn't prompt to avoid it, but this kind of scene should have been avoided.

I saw Luo Cai's strange expression, so he leaned over and whispered: "This is a sacrifice for sins, to ask for forgiveness to the Snow God, and it is a rare sacrifice for the Snow Clan." Moved from the branch to this Maquan River, the total was only held twice. It is said that the first time was the first time they had just migrated here, and this was the second time. ”

Shen Nishang understood, but still didn't understand what Luo Cai meant.

Even if this confession is rare, what does it have to do with Luo Cai's pulling her to stay?

Seeing that Shen Nishang didn't know why, Luo Cai showed a little pride, he didn't wander in vain all day.

"The Snow Clan's original preparation was the same as in previous years, it was a New Year's sacrifice, and before dinner, Wangdui seemed to have received a message, and suddenly changed the original New Year's sacrifice to this confession sacrifice——"

After speaking, Luo Cai looked at Shen Nishang and smiled deeply.

Wangdui received the news - only to change the New Year's sacrifice to a confession?

Shen Nishang's expression moved slightly, and the next moment, he looked up and looked into the distance, on the altar halfway up the mountainside, it was vague, and several objects were placed on it, but the sky was dark and dark, and there was no fire in front of the sacrificial cave.

Luo Cai glanced at Shen Nisheng's gaze, and then he understood, and whispered: "In addition to some offerings, it is the relics of Gongga! ”

Shen Nishang retracted her gaze thoughtfully, turned her head to look at the other side of the black river, Ling Wen's remains were still on the opposite side, looking back at Luo Cai's eyes, and said softly: "You mean...... There's movement over there?"

Luo Cai smiled without saying a word, raised his eyebrows, obviously acquiescing, hooked the corners of his lips, and said in a low voice: "People are old and thieves, and Wangdui has lived for more than 100 years, how can he have no purpose? This big drama is not for us after all...... It doesn't matter if it's or not, they didn't tell us to avoid it, it's always right for us to keep it. ”

Shen Nishang was silent and nodded.

The two of them were speechless, standing quietly in the distance, silently looking halfway up the mountain.

This waited for nearly two hours, until a crescent moon hung high in the sky.

See, the time of the child is near.

Just when Luo Cai was so cold that he couldn't help but jump to his feet, footsteps suddenly came from the direction of the riverside.

The footsteps are heavy, and there is no sense of avoiding people's eyes and ears.

Luo Cai followed the prestige, and when he saw the appearance of the person in it, his eyes lit up!

"Girl! is immortal...... Immortal is here with the Snow Clan!"

Luo Cai's voice was excited.
