The Bitter Truth (4)

However, when the eldest prince left the little prince alone, he showed a wicked smile, he even looked forward to the arrival of tomorrow more than anyone else, this will be his last chance to achieve his goal, and he will never miss it.

The next day, when it was bright, she was awakened from her dream by the light of the fire, although she was in a predicament now, but she felt that her physical condition was much better than before, although her hands were tied to the wooden frame, she had a sense of relief.

At this time, around him were people who were engaged in rituals, each of them holding torches and circling around Calm and reciting scriptures.

And beside Calm, the boy was tied to a tree so that he would not interfere with the whole process of sacrifice.

The official festival takes place at the time of the lunar eclipse in the evening, but the morning process is still carried out in strict accordance with the process established by the ancestors.

The festival is a rigorous ritual, so no one dares to slack off on it.

Several of the maids took some cacti, they plucked the flowers from the cactus, and then threw all the rhizomes into a bowl, and all of them were mashed and milked, and they applied these to their calm faces, and then they left.

The guards of the previous night had all left the place, and there was no one left here, except for the two festival directors who stood on their own sides, but they all closed their eyes and ignored the calm.

At this time, the military advisor came over, and he had a dagger in his hand.

He couldn't get a cool blood in prison the night before, and he won't miss the opportunity again this time.

He walked in front of him and smiled at her, but now he didn't have to pretend anymore, "You are going to die soon, we have been preparing for this day for ten years, since we are willing to exchange the lives of the entire Chang'an City people for you as a slave, it proves that we cannot miss this opportunity." ”

After this, Calm didn't speak, she looked down at the dagger in the hand of the military advisor by herself, and suddenly said, "Since you came, you did what you wanted, anyway, today I will definitely die, why not borrow a few drops of blood from you." ”

Calmly said all this, and the military advisor stopped pretending, and he quickly stabbed the old man in the face with a dagger and took a few drops of blood from it.

He didn't rush away when he got the blood, but applied the ointment to her wound.

This ointment was asked for by the green wolf before, and he even exchanged the lives of three clansmen in the tribe.

He still remembers the day he met and exchanged with the green wolf, the green wolf killed all three people on the spot, two of them were sucked dry of blood, and the remaining one was not spared, he was directly sucked dry of blood on the spot, and his body suddenly became a dried corpse, and it was directly turned into ashes with a gust of wind.

After the blood was taken, the military advisor turned around and was about to leave, but at this time, a calm voice sounded behind him: "Can you tell me why?" ”

She knew from the mouth of the military advisor just now that destroying the Skull Forest was just a crime, in fact, she was brought here from the beginning to prepare for today, which made Calm Heart unwilling, he wanted to know the full truth of the matter before he could die.

The military advisor looked at her calm eyes and determined that she had no intention of escaping, so she said with confidence: "Ten years ago, a sandstorm was about to invade Dadu, and the people of the entire Xiongnu tribe were preparing to pack their bags and leave here, but that night, the little prince's horse team suddenly lost control and drove towards the center of the sandstorm. The king of the Huns searched everywhere for consultation, and I don't know how many doctors were beheaded because of misdiagnosis or lack of treatment. It wasn't until six months later that a man from the Western Regions arrived in Dadu, he broke through the siege of the royal soldiers and entered the store, and made a deal with the king of the Huns - in exchange for the health of the little prince with the lives of a thousand people, and he never appeared again, but only appeared when needed to remind us how to find the medicine primer, and you know what happened later. So the king of the Huns used you as a hostage and gave up the continued attack on the Song Dynasty. ”

He said this calmly, and only when he almost came up with the name of the green wolf did he stop the precipice in time.

The attitude of killing people without blinking at the green wolf made him avoid his storage, and only vaguely brought his storage.

"So, I'm the primer of the medicine.

Looking at the sky calmly, she was not asking the other party for verification but telling herself this established fact.

At the beginning, he voluntarily exchanged his life for his father and the tens of millions of people in Chang'an City, in fact, if he wasn't the medicine primer, he would have died ten years ago, and he was a damned person, or it was the greatest relief by now, but he couldn't say whether he should be happy or regret whether he didn't commit suicide on the spot to avoid today's trouble.

Saving life, is everyone's instinct, calm since childhood, life is not rich, but at least carefree, I never thought that I had to accept the reality of death before I was twenty-eight.

The military advisor glanced at him calmly before leaving, and he said earnestly, "It is at least better to die as a tribute than in the Zombie Wilderness, so you can settle down."

The final verdict is about to begin.

The sky is getting darker, and the moon is exceptionally bright tonight, but this also officially announces the end of his fate to Calm.
