Chapter 134: Sacrifice
This is not the only great drought that the people have encountered, just ten years ago, there was also such a great drought, although not in the desert of the loyal Pipa City, but the people at that time were not able to live but enough to destroy together, even now, no matter who remembers the disaster at that time, they all feel shuddering, the people are hungry, hungry and thirsty, but they can't find a way out, until a man who claims to be a wizard and wears a hood appears in front of the king, saying that he has the ability to ask for rain, and the people at that time finally found a glimmer of hope。
It is not that no one has ever suspected this man's ill intentions, an outsider, whose words are unfounded, many people resist him, saying that she is just taking this opportunity to make a lot of money, and even more, it is pointed out that this man has ill intentions and appeared here for no reason, and it is such an extreme time, or for demagoguery, it is a gap sent by a neighboring country, so thinking, just when many people were preparing to correct this person on the spot, the king's order came, and she was found in the palace, and after that, soon after, the pouring rain finally fell, bringing a rain that had not been seen for a long time, and also brought hope, and the people's admiration for this outsider, and the king later enshrined this person as a national teacher.
Yes, this person is the Hidden Mountain.
In the following years, Xu is because of the hidden mountain, inside and outside the palace, a harmonious, smooth wind and rain, prosperous and healthy, the people are fortunate to have such a good emperor, but also fortunate to have such a wise national teacher, and few people know the truth about the heavy rain falling.
At that time, the hidden mountain said bluntly, "If you want to save the people, if you want rain, you must take all the blood of the queen and offer it in a silver vessel, all the blood." Naturally, this means that if you want to ask for rain, the queen will inevitably die. And the queen at that time. He was deeply in love with the queen, who bore her a son and a daughter. And that daughter, who is only six years old, thinks of losing the queen, the king only feels that his heart is like a knife, however, he can only choose one between the country and the beauty. At that moment, the king only really flinched.
Even if he had to choose one or the other, he couldn't let his queen die.
So, the hidden mountain, who said such a rebellious thing, was pressed into a prison cell. The death penalty was again executed, and the king was so indignant that he only thought that he would execute the hidden mountain immediately, but the queen only gently put her hand on the back of the king's hand, and her palm was so cold. But her words were so gentle, with a faint smile, that the queen just said, "Your Majesty, if there is no rain." Isn't it great that not only the people, but also our turn in the end, sacrifice one in exchange for more?"
"No......" When the emperor, who was still young at that time, heard the queen say this, he hugged her like crazy, "Queen Lone, you can't leave Lone!"
But in his arms, the queen's body became stiff, and she seemed to surrender, but said softly, "Okay, don't leave, king, I won't leave." At that time, the king easily believed the queen's words, but he did not expect that they were lying on a bed, but he smelled the pungent smell of blood in the middle of the night, and opened his eyes in a panic, the king's body was already cold, and the wound on the wrist separated a large opening, filled with the utensils under the bed, and the woman he loved most gently closed her eyes at this moment, and the corners of her mouth were even more faintly smiling, and she was sleeping peacefully, and the king hugged his queen in disbelief, hugged him tightly in his arms, and kept kissing the queen's mouth, and muttered to wake her up, however, his queen, but still left him forever.
Hidden Mountain finally carried out the sacrifice, but it was a long sword on his neck, and the young but unsmiling young guard stood motionless, and the long sword in his hand did not differ in the slightest, against his pale skin, and the blood in the silver vessel not only did not become dark red due to contact between the air, but became more and more bewitching.
He knelt on the ground, felt the utensils high, whispered something, and did not know what he was talking about, but the dark clouds gathered at this time, and suddenly there was a whistling wind, everything was dark and sunny, and the haggard face of the king finally showed joy, looking forward to it, waiting for the raindrops of beans to fall, and his eyes left muddy tears, but he waited for the poisonous wine, the wind dispersed, but there was still no trace of rain, it seemed that everything was just a joke of God, the sky was cool, it was still the scorching sun, and the panic and despair of the tribesmen。
Wang Shang suddenly knelt down, as if he could no longer support it, with a scruffy beard, but the fist in his hand fell to the ground fiercely, and a fierce look was fixed on the body of the hidden mountain, the eyes fell, undisguised, it was a secret signal of killing, and Li Xiu comprehended, the long sword in his hand was slightly forced, and the blood immediately seeped out from the snow-white skin, fell, and dyed the placket red, and the pale man's face suddenly outlined a faint smile.
It was at this time that the raindrops of Douda finally fell, drenching the sky in a piece, and suddenly, washed away the tears on the king's top, and the long sword in Li Xiu's hand also fell.
The king, who had a sad face, finally showed a slight joy at this time.
And immediately after, the young boy became the youngest national teacher, admired by others, and was a god in the eyes of everyone.
It's just that no one thought that this same disaster would come again, but Yinshan didn't panic in the slightest, but just said to the king, "The blood of the queen was exchanged for Ganlin before, and now, it is better to concoct it in the same way, think about it, the princess has the blood of the queen, this is for the people of the world, she must be very willing." Between words, for some reason, people always felt unconsciously only unusually cold, and Wang Shang's eyes widened in horror when he heard what Shen Shu said, he didn't want to do it anyway.
Ten years, he thought that he had long forgotten the thing that almost made him grief-stricken, before, because his daughter lost her mother since she was a child, he was already very fond of Senna, he doted on Senna, that is, the moon in the sky, he would be obligated to pick it off for Senna, and Senna has always been a jealous existence between several brothers and sisters. The king could never have imagined that he would face such a difficult choice now, first his wife, and then his favorite daughter, how God wants to be so unfair, but he wants to take away his favorite woman, the king thought of this, he couldn't help but be grief-stricken, but now he can't tolerate his hope or not, after hesitating again and again, the king remembered what happened to the queen, whether he wanted to or not, he couldn't give up his thousands of people for one of his daughters, not to mention, he had never done the duty of a king, otherwise, and will not make his people displaced one by one, and live such a turbulent life from now on.
Therefore, in order to give an explanation to the clansmen, the old king nodded his head after all.
Soon the edict came out, but this time, it was made public, the four princesses of the king, willing to be sacrificed as the rain god, voluntarily sacrificed, just for the people of the world, so, there was a commotion among the people, they sighed the princess's benevolence, and the king felt a little relieved between the grief, thinking that this may be the last thing he did for the princess.
And although Sena didn't know about it at first, but it was so vigorous, she was going to find out sooner or later, first she wondered how the food suddenly became better, but no one mentioned that she was going to be released, and then it was the jailer's eldest brother who inadvertently leaked his mouth, and the food box in his hand fell to the ground, ruining the exquisite food, she naturally never thought that one day, she would also follow in her mother's footsteps.
And the eldest brother of the jailer knew that he had said the wrong thing, and his face was already pale with fright, and he just said in a slur manner, "Father...... Princess, the minions should be damned!
However, Senna's face quickly recovered, and at this time, she just smiled, as if she had suddenly become enlightened, but said very indifferently, "What should I be, such a glorious thing, shouldn't I be happy?!"
And Senna thought about it, but still said, "Then can I see my father at the end?"
Not for anything else, she always thought that she always wanted to see her father, after all, they didn't seem to have seen each other for a long time, and when she made this request, she didn't want to, but at this moment a cold and playful voice suddenly sounded, "I'm afraid it can't be." ”
Sena was stunned for a moment, and then she saw that the person who came turned out to be Yinshan, she suddenly skimmed her head, but for Yinshan, Sena has always had no good feelings, but Yinshan didn't care, but hooked the corners of her mouth, smiled, and said, "Please also ask the princess to rest for a good life, eat and drink well, because on weekdays, it is a sacrificial ceremony." Please also ask the princess to spend these last days well. “
