Jiu Wentian thinks that it is the same, you have to eat enough to think about things, instead of saying that you don't do anything all day and just stay there thinking about solutions. Anyway, it's also a soldier who will block the water and cover the earth, regardless of his three-seven-twenty-one, take one step and count it.

"You remember that when you arrive in a strange place, even though you know that you are safe, you still have to familiarize yourself with the surroundings so that you can feel as safe and have a perfect plan as possible. Although many times the plan does not keep up with the changes, you must know that planned action and unplanned action are completely two levels. Gu Zhengwen said solemnly.

Jiu Wentian nodded and said, "Thank you Brother Gu for mentioning it." ”

Gu Zhengwen continued: "I just turned around, the City Lord's Mansion in Fengcheng is indeed a bit large, divided into front and back yards, the front yard is as you can see, most of them are these houses and flowers and plants, and the back yard is a place to hold large-scale activities, such as this night banquet or sacrifice and other activities. ”

Jiu Wentian's curiosity came when he heard the word sacrifice, so he asked: "Brother Gu, what are the activities of the sacrifice, is it also something from the Four Elephants Sanskrit Sect?"

Gu Zhengwen explained expressionlessly: "The influence of the Four Elephants Sanskrit Sect on Fengcheng is not very great, most people in Fengcheng believe in the 'demon god', so the people of Fengcheng advocate that people's life, old age, sickness and death, the rain and snow in the sky, and the epidemic and the howling wind of the earth are all determined by the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the demon gods, and the sacrifices they want to make are to please the demon gods." ”

Jiu Wentian took a long breath and said: "I finally came across something normal, but it's all feudal superstition." By the way, is this toast also for the demon gods?"

Gu Zhengwen nodded, and then explained: "Almost, I learned after inquiring just now that the sacrifices are generally made by men, and some livestock are rarely used. The purpose of this toast is to select the sacrifice today, let the sacrifice live well tomorrow, and start the sacrifice at noon the day after tomorrow and continue into the evening. Sacrificial offerings are cut with a thousand knives and sprinkled with seasonings and roasted over a fire while they are alive, which is actually similar to a barbecue. ”

Jiu Wentian couldn't help but gasp, this news almost made Jiu Wentian breathless, and hurriedly asked again: "Gu, Brother Gu, this is ...... Is this true?"

"I don't know if it's true or not, but I was told by someone just now, so I don't think it's much worse. So many men seem to be doing well, but they are all prepared for sacrifices, like some men in the family, such as Ji Xingwen. Gu Zhengwen said indifferently: "You have also seen that Ji Xingwen is no different from his subordinates in the Ji family, even if he has the name of the eldest prince." ”

Jiu Wentian nodded and said, "I didn't expect Fengcheng to be so dark, I originally thought that a group of women would be a little more peaceful, but now it seems that all of them are the same, it's really a pity." ”

Gu Zhengwen said again: "I know you can't see this kind of thing, but we can't interfere either, you are the envoy of the old city, this is Fengcheng, even if you have the ability to intervene, but you also have to understand, Jiang Fuqing is willing to wipe your ass for you? In the future, there will be no hiding place for you in Mingzhou and even in the Kyushu mainland, I have already fallen to the point of being hunted down and killed by others, I don't want you to be the same as me." ”

Jiu Wentian was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent.

Gu Zhengwen continued: "Also, in fact, the strength of the demon family is much greater than that of the Ji family, but because the demon family claims to be the descendants of the demon god, it is their principle not to ask about the world, otherwise this Fengcheng would not be surnamed Ji for a long time." Ji Annan had to nod when he saw the demon family, so the relationship here is a bit complicated, and when you look at it yourself, the city lord of Ji can't be offended, and the people of the demon family can't be offended. ”

Jiu Wentian responded, and then said: "I know, now I think this Fengcheng is in danger everywhere, it is better for us to leave early." ”

"That can't be helped, in fact, the old city is much more dangerous than Fengcheng, but the forces of the old city are more balanced, and no one dares to break this balance, but no one is a vegetarian. Once this balance is broken, the old city will already become a battlefield. Gu Zhengwen said with an indifferent attitude, as if he didn't want to care about the affairs of the old city for a long time.

Jiu Wentian, who came to the backyard, saw the scene of this backyard, this backyard is square, but just like the previous math problem, draw the largest circle in such a square figure, there is a huge and covered circular step, only about 20 centimeters higher than the ground. On top of this round staircase stand four stone pillars, which are more totems than stone pillars.

The totem is not painted with a dragon, but with a demon god of various forms. Legend has it that the demon gods lived in dark places, lived by sucking human flesh and blood, and had the instinct to control all living things, but later made an agreement with the demon family that as long as they did not cause trouble to the world, they could get a hearty meal on each specific day.

In addition, the strength of the demon family was also very strong at that time, so the demon gods also compromised, but when they were hungry and couldn't stand it, they would manipulate the people of heaven and earth in the dark to let the people of Fengcheng send food. Of course, this meal is human flesh, and this toast is to let the demon gods stop making trouble, hoping for a good harvest in the coming year, after all, farmers still have to rely on the land to survive.

Jiu Wentian probably understood when he heard this, but those things that claim to be demon gods, could they be mages? Some mages are making trouble here to achieve the purpose of sucking human flesh and blood, such speculation is not impossible, but do these mages like to suck human flesh and blood? Chuan Lan does not have such a preference, or do those mages be the same as vampires.

I don't want to guess after too much Jiu Wentian, thinking that it won't get in the way of my own affairs anyway, no matter what he is.

Jiu Wentian, who came to the backyard, was seen by Ji Xingyu at a glance, and Ji Xingyu shouted at Jiu Wentian: "Long envoy!

Gu Zhengwen glanced at Jiu Wentian and said, "I'm annoyed, let's leave tomorrow." ”

Jiu Wentian nodded and said, "I also feel that the trouble is getting bigger and bigger now, so it's better to slip away early." ”

After passing, Jiu Wentian and Gu Zhengwen sat on the side of the city lord Ji, and on the other side were Ji Xingyu and Ji Xingwen. City Lord Ji said to Jiu Wentian: "My daughter is still young and doesn't understand the world, so please take care of the envoy for a long time." ”

The sentence just now naturally made everyone see it, the princess of Fengcheng and the future king are so attentive to an envoy, although they are distinguished guests, but they will not be treated like this, and Jiu Wentian is still a man, so it makes people speculate about the others. Ji Anan said to Jiu Wentian like this, firstly, he wanted Jiu Wentian not to misunderstand, and secondly, he wanted Jiu Wentian not to feel that he might think wrongly about the princess.

Jiu Wentian could hear the meaning, since he also said respectfully: "The little princess is hospitable, and I am also flattered, but the little princess is also like you, she has general knowledge at a young age, and she must be a good city lord in the future." ”

Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Lord Ji naturally laughed, "The envoy is really joking, Xingyu, there are still many places that need to be exercised." However, poets such as the long-term envoy can naturally have more contact, by the way, does the long-term envoy know what this night banquet is for?"

Jiu Wentian naturally knows, but sometimes it's better to pretend to be stupid, which is also the truth he understood in his previous life, so Jiu Wentian said: "Isn't this night banquet used to eat and enjoy the night view?"

Speaking of this, not only Ji Annan smiled, but even the people sitting next to him who heard this sentence laughed, and the atmosphere here suddenly became lively. City Lord Ji said with a smile: "This is also your first time here, I don't blame you, this night banquet is to choose a gift for the demon god, you can take a good look at it for a long time, I remember that Xiao envoy has not seen it, you can tell him." ”

"This is also," Jiu Wentian pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Don't worry, City Lord Ji, I must tell Lord Xiao everything I have seen and heard, how can I miss such a beautiful scene in Fengcheng, and I also have to thank City Lord Ji for letting me stay." ”

At this time, Ji Shengnan came to Gu Zhengwen, picked up a bowl of wine and said to Gu Zhengwen: "I just learned about it, although you said that you are the entourage of the envoy for a long time, but I don't mind that you are humble, as long as you follow me, don't say that it is the general's husband, even the position of the general, I will let you sit and watch!"

Gu Zhengwen glanced at Ji Shengnan, then scolded Jiu Wentian with his eyes, and then fell silent. Unexpectedly, Ji Shengnan actually came to Jiu Wentian and drank the bowl of wine in front of Jiu Wentian and said: "Jiu envoy, the reason why he didn't speak is because he is still your entourage, as long as Jiu envoy fulfills the two of us, I promise that I will also agree to you whatever you say." ”

Jiu Wentian almost didn't squirt out the water that was sent to his mouth, and said that people don't want to deal with you at all, and you still rely on me. As soon as Jiu Wentian wanted to speak, he heard the city lord Ji say: "Shengnan, these two are from the ancient city, if you want to propose marriage, you have to find someone Jiang Lao, although he is the entourage of the envoy for a long time, but he is still from the old city." Chasing boys should pay attention to methods, it is not okay for you to be rude like this, you have to take it step by step. ”

Jiu Wentian didn't hold back when he heard this, and directly squirted out the water, and Jiu Wentian, who realized that he was out of shape, hurriedly got up and apologized: "City Lord Ji, I think you are very reasonable, I originally wanted to fulfill them, but you did remind me of this, so I didn't have time to swallow, and hurriedly thanked you." ”

This kind of rhetoric has been very blunt for a long time, and there is a kind of contempt for others, but he didn't expect that the next words of the city lord Ji would simply surprise him.
