Chapter 215: A Strange Sacrifice
Sacrifice for dogs? The crowd was amazed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This witch sacrifice is too strange, isn't it, how can such a ceremony be held?
Everyone who was very curious about the secret art of the Wu clan looked at Wu Jing in confusion, hoping to know more secrets of the Wu clan from her mouth.
Wu Jing ignored everyone's inquiring gazes, she turned her head to see her master nodding to her before continuing.
"Since ancient times, because of geographical reasons, we have been surrounded by lofty mountains and mountains, and the roads in and out are very difficult, so we have always had little contact with the outside world."
"In the legend of our Wu clan, there was no grain in Shuzhong before the ages. Later, the reason why it was able to become the country of abundance was because thousands of times ago, there was a god dog with a dog's tail rolling a handful of grain ears, traveling through the three rivers, bravely climbing the cliff, and going through a lot of hardships to bring the grain seeds to Shuzhong. ”
"Since then, every year when the harvest season arrives in August, the ancestral priests of our Wu clan will lead the clan to hold a grand dog-tail sacrifice to thank the divine dog for bringing food to everyone."
"Later, slowly, this kind of sacrifice was not only held among my Wu clan, but spread throughout the land of Shuzhong. For nearly 1,000 years, such ceremonies have been held in various parts of Shuzhong before the annual rice harvest. ”
"This is to thank the divine dog for bringing food to everyone from time to time, and I hope it will ensure a bumper harvest of food for everyone. Second, it is also through this ceremony to be grateful to the heavens, hoping that the coming year will be smooth and worry-free. ”
"So, in Shuzhong, especially in places where my people haunt, it's best for everyone not to mention the matter of dog meat again, otherwise no one will be able to save you."
After speaking, Wu Jing glanced coldly at the guard who had mentioned dog meat several times before, and it wasn't until Wang Ji opened her mouth lightly that she suppressed her cold gaze and silently retreated behind her master.
"Okay, since everyone has come to someone else's territory, it's better to be careful." Wang Jiqing stood up and patted the dust behind her.
She looked around at the stone bowl that had been put down, and the people who had been standing up with her nodded secretly.
"From tomorrow onwards, everyone will be in good spirits and be careful. Each place has its own specific customs, and everyone should try to pay attention to them so as not to cause trouble. ”
She believes that everyone understands the principle of following the local customs, and she doesn't need to say more.
"Yes, miss." Everyone nodded yes, with a cautious face.
"Alright," she smiled and shook her head when she saw that everyone was a little too cautious, "you don't have to be too nervous. It's fine as usual, just a little more careful. ”
Anyway, she is also the bloodline heir of the Great Witch of the Wu Clan, even if something really happens at that time, she will protect these subordinates who are dedicated to protecting her.
"Erniu, you arrange the brothers to see how to take turns on duty at night. Everyone else should rest, and tomorrow we will have to walk on the plank road for a day. ”
Before Wang Ji sat down, she gave another command to Ding Erniu, then closed her eyes, leaned on Thirteen Niang's arms without sleep, and pretended to rest.
In this starless and moonless night, there is also Princess Annan who is in the capital.
Princess Annan, who had been running around on the bed for half a night, finally couldn't help but turn over and sit up. She irritably ripped off the brocade quilt on her body and walked back and forth in the room.
It's almost over, why hasn't the person she arranged come back to report the news?
A few days ago, Princess Annan secretly took out her private money and contacted a killer organization that is said to be one of the best in the rivers and lakes through secret channels.
She was bent on begging the stupid pig to disappear silently, so that she could tie the knot with Li Yuanche. So he agreed with the other party to let the other party send someone to the hotel tonight, which resulted in the life of the new Tang Wang Wuqiu.
Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Princess Annan, who had not yet received the slightest news back, finally couldn't stay in the room anymore. She opened the door irritably and shouted at Mei Han, the big girl who was sleeping soundly outside.
"Dead girl, can't you sleep dead?"
Mei Han, who was awakened in her sleep, didn't have time to put on her coat, so she turned over and got out of bed, trembling and kneeling in front of her master.
"The slave and maid should die, please spare the slave and maid this time." Mei Han couldn't stop kowtowing, she remembered her good sister Mei Xiang who had broken her leg and sold to the Qinglou a few days ago, and she became more and more scared.
For a while, she couldn't even tell whether the "knock knock" sound in her ears was the sound of her kowtowing or her own heartbeat that was beating more and more.
"Get up, go to the front yard and take a look, is the little guy in the second gate back?" Annan gave an impatient order, then turned and walked to the inner room.
"Yes, Princess." Mei Han kowtowed to the ground, letting cold sweat wet her clothes.
Fortunately, she escaped again.

East of the city, hotel.
In the main courtyard of the hotel where the new Tang Wang Wuqiu temporarily lived, it was as dark as ink, and there was no light on it.
In the messy main room, Wu Qiu glanced coldly at the two corpses lying on the ground, and didn't even bother to lift the black scarf covered by the other party.
After a long time, he withdrew his cold gaze at the corpse, turned back, took out a pillow towel on the bed at random, and carefully wiped the blood stains on the soft sword in his hand gently.
At this time, his face was so cold that he couldn't see a trace of stupidity in the daytime.
After a while, he wrapped the wiped soft sword around his waist seemingly casually, only to hear a "click", and there was an additional silver belt about two fingers wide around his round waist.
If someone hadn't seen this scene with their own eyes, no one would have thought that this seemingly ordinary belt had just ended the lives of two killers. After all, this inconspicuous silver belt does not show the slightest shadow of a murderous weapon.
After doing all this, Wu Qiu shook the fat on his body, and then walked indifferently to the already cold corpse on the ground.
He didn't lift the other's face scarf, as if he didn't dare to take any interest in the faces of the two killers. He seemed to be difficult, but in fact, he squatted down like a ball flexibly, ripped off the bracer on the right wrist of a corpse, and a bright red bracelet appeared in front of him.
And so it was! Wu Qiu pulled out the bracelet without hesitation, and his squinting eyes, which were sunken in the fat of his face, seemed to never be able to open, flashed with a clear light.
After he pulled out the same bracelet from the second corpse in the same way, Wu Qiu stood up straight.
He stamped to the window on the fat elephant's legs and pulled out a delicate bamboo tube from his waist. His thick fingers flexibly slid left and right on the bamboo tube a few times, and after a "click", he saw that the open bamboo tube was thrown into the night sky by him.
Suddenly, with a slight "boom", the sound of breaking the air sounded a few breaths, and a trace of red light flashed silently in the night sky hundreds of meters high, reminding who did not know where to hide in the night. (To be continued.) )
