Chapter 65: The Reason for Not Being Sacrificed

The old ghost looked at Ah Dao's charming face, and said: "Since the failure of Lord Yueli by the blood sacrifice more than six hundred years ago, the Xiang clan has set two conditions for the sacrifice to break the curse of the world, one is that the sacrifice must be voluntarily sacrificed, and the other is that the sacrifice must inherit the blood of the ancestor of the ghost. ”

"The Ancestor seems to have met these two conditions, but have you ever wondered why the Xiang clan has not taken your sacrifice for a long time?"

Ah Tao shook his head.

The old ghost said: "Over the years, although the old man has rarely set foot in Yin'an, he also knows some things about Yin'an, the Xiang clan is weakening due to the world curse, and other clans led by the royal family are eyeing it, and they should be eager to hold a sacrifice ceremony to crack the world curse." ”

"Are you saying that the Xiang tribe has not sacrificed me until now, is there any other unknown reason?" asked Adao.

The old ghost nodded.

Ah Tao looked at the old ghost for a long time.

"You came to tell me about this, so you know why, right?"

The old ghost's eyes deepened: "The ancestor is keen. ”

Ah Dao's expression became serious and motioned for him to continue.

The old ghost said: "My father once said that more than 600 years ago, when Lord Yueli went crazy on the night of the ceremony, blood-colored ghost eyes appeared. ”

"Blood-colored ghost eyes......" Ah Dao was at the bottom of the lake and saw a clip about the moon fence, and there happened to be a scene of blood-colored ghost eyes on the moon fence.

The ghost's pupils were wide open, and they glowed blood-red.

Old ghost: "The blood-colored ghost eyes are a symbol of the noble and powerful bloodline of the ancestor of the powerful ghost!"

Ah Dao was stunned: "But I ...... There are no blood-colored eyes. ”

The old ghost was not surprised: "That's because the blood of the ancestor in your body has not yet awakened, whether it is Lord Yueli or you, but all the ghosts who have inherited the blood of the ancestor of the powerful ghost, the blood of the ancestor in the body needs to be actively awakened, if not, why didn't the Xiang clan send you to the altar at the beginning, and deliberately raise them for several years?"

Ah Tao was puzzled: "Why do you have to awaken the blood of the ancestor before you can sacrifice blood?"

The old ghost replied: "Everyone knows that any spell in the world must be cracked by the spell caster himself, and the spell caster of the Xiang clan curse is the first ghost in the ghost world thousands of years ago, that is, the ancestor of the ghost. ”

"But the ancestor ghost has already entered the underworld, but the Xiang clan has come up with a way to use the ghost sacrifice inherited from the blood of the ancestor to break the curse. It can be seen that the key to breaking the curse of the world is the blood of this ancestor. ”

Ah Tao suddenly realized: "So I haven't been used as a sacrifice by the Xiang clan so far, because the blood of the ancestor in my body has not yet awakened." ”

"Not bad. ”

Ah Tao couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that the two conditions for the Xiang clan to sacrifice to break the curse of the world are also false and real, and they have not been exhausted. ”

The old ghost nodded: "The matter of sacrifice, after all, is the life gate of the Xiang clan." ”

If it is the door of life, how can it show the whole picture to others?

He added: "Lord Yueli's original mastery of words was superb, and he summoned as many as ten characters with words, because the blood of the ancestor in his body had awakened. ”

Ah Tao was stunned: "If one day my word control technique can be as powerful as the moon fence, does it mean that the blood of the ancestors in my body has also awakened?"

The old ghost pondered for a moment or two: "Maybe, but to determine whether the blood of the ancestor has awakened, the key is to see if the blood-colored ghost eyes appear." ”

Speaking of this, he frowned slightly, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes: "Do you really plan to follow the path of sacrifice that the Xiang clan has set for you?"

"You are not afraid of people, you are fully capable of breaking away from the control of humans and returning to the ghost world, if you don't want to become a sacrifice, I am willing to protect you even at the cost of the dead clan!"

After hearing this, Ah Tao patted the old ghost's shoulder with some emotion: "Thank you, but I'm doing well in the Xiang clan now, and I'm also very happy to be able to be a sacrifice to my son." ”

The old ghost looked surprised.

Looking at the woman in red who had changed greatly in front of her, and who was smiling gently and contentedly when she spit out "Childe" between her lips and teeth, a complicated color flashed in his eyes.

"The ancestor really trusts that jade prince, since you think so, the old man will not say more, if you have a place to get the old decay in the future, you can summon the old decay at any time, and the old decay is willing to serve the dogs and horses. ”

Ah Tao smiled slyly: "That's nature, since you have got a piece of yellow wood from me, I won't be polite." ”

The old ghost was stunned for a moment, then laughed twice, and there was a look of admiration in his eyes: "You and the old father's Lord Yueli are somewhat similar in temperament, and they are both broad-minded people. ”

Ah Tao smiled.

She is indeed becoming more and more similar to Yuefen......

Because of the blood of the ancestors, she empathized with what happened to the moon fence, and for a few moments, she really thought that she was the moon fence.

She couldn't help but think of what Childe had said to her when she was on the boat.

He said, my sacrificial moon fence, before she was sent to the altar, she was exquisite and proficient in the art of controlling words, and the three orders of "order, transformation, and royal" were all cultivated to the realm of transcendence.

He also said that the only thing you should do is to be like her.

Only now does Ah Tao really understand a little bit about these words.

Only when she is the same as the Moon Fence can she awaken the blood of the Ancestor Powerful Ghost in her body, and she is also qualified to become a qualified sacrifice to be sent to the altar by him.

The blood of the ancestors flowing in the body is generally the same, the art of controlling words is generally the same, and the blood-colored ghost eyes are all the same.

Adao's hand slowly caressed his face.

Even the appearance must become the same.

Ah Tao couldn't help laughing.

......

The matter of rescuing the dancing girl is almost settled.

Just when the old ghost began to return to Yin'an with Ah Dao, Qin Shuang and the unconscious dancing girl, the Yin'an court began to change.

At this time, there were eleven days left before the onset of the pre-death curse.

And since Ah Tao and Qin Shuang left Yin'an, no news has come back, and those clans who have pre-death curses in their bodies have long been unable to hold back, and finally began to question Dali Temple.

There are officials who played, Dali Temple only sent a sacrifice and one of Yin'an's weakest ghost deterrent masters to Jin Valley, perhaps they did not intend to complete the task of rescuing the dancing girls, this is to treat the lives of their clans with pre-death curses as child's play.

At first, some people ignored the clan that was deliberately in the middle of the prenatal death curse because of the dispute between the two factions, so as to take the opportunity to weaken the power of the royal faction.

After all, most of the clans with the pre-death curse in their bodies this time are the royal family.

And Xun Ju, in the midst of these doubts, impeached Xun Ju in the court as the middle of the imperial history.

Xun Ju mainly listed Luan Chang's two major crimes: one was disrespecting the imperial power, despising the prestige of heaven, not being a prince or a minister, and having two hearts for His Majesty;

Under the official residence Xunju, Marquis Yin, who served the imperial history, was still silent as usual, almost making people forget his existence.

A war of words was staged in the Taihua Palace.

Xun Ju said: "Lord Luan, Dali Temple only sent a sacrifice and one of Yin'an's weakest ghost deterrent masters to carry out such an important task, isn't it instructed by someone, is it the Jade Prince, or the Xiang clan?"

"Are you the private minister of the Xiang clan and the Jade Prince, or should you enforce the law impartially and be loyal to His Majesty's Dali Temple Tingqing?"

Luan Chang replied calmly: "Lord Xun is serious, Weichen is naturally the emperor's courtier, the courtier of the Yin'an court. ”

"At the beginning, Wei Chen had already made it clear to His Majesty before he decided on these two people, and he also got His Majesty's approval, so why not respect the imperial power? The crux of the disappearance of the dancing girl fell on that fence, this matter has involved the jade prince and the fierce ghost Moon Fence, and the sacrifice Ah Tao bears the same ancestral blood as the Moon Fence, so he is the best person to go and rescue the Dancing Queen. ”

"If Weichen really wants to use public favoritism to take the opportunity to eradicate other clans that oppose Weichen, he can order the two of them to deliberately cause the mission to fail, but if the mission really fails, in addition to the clan with the pre-death curse in his body will be cursed and die, the two of them are also destined to die here. ”

"Everyone knows the importance of the sacrifice Ah Dao to the Xiang clan, Wei Chen wants her to die, will the Xiang clan and Yu Gongzi let her die?"

"So, even if Weichen is really instructed by someone, how can he not be the Xiang clan or the jade prince in Lord Xun's mouth, right? Lord Xun, you are also the duty of impeachment, but you have not fulfilled your fair duty, don't let down Your Majesty's trust in you because of selfishness!"

Xun Ju stood among the hundred officials, his eyes like ice blades shooting at Luan Chang.

Luan Chang smiled and calmly.

Compared with the noise in the court, Xiangfu, which is at the center of the whirlpool of public opinion, is particularly quiet, as if it has not been disturbed by the outside world in the slightest.

The attention of the whole house was completely focused on watching the old patriarch at home play tricks on the wild ghosts.
