At that moment, a dark shadow jerked me away and rushed into the house. In the next moment, Xiao Jiu pulled Si'er out of the door.

"Si'er—"

"Be careful—" Yin Duo shouted.

I paused. At that moment, a log that had been propped up on the earthen wall slammed down, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Si'er!" I went into cardiac arrest and ran as fast as I could.

In the dust, Si'er was firmly held by Xiao Jiu, and the end of the log smashed on Xiao Jiu's shoulder.

"Xiao Jiu, wake up! Si'er—" I pushed the log off Xiao Jiu, and Yin Duo quickly dragged the unconscious two people to a safe place.

The ground still trembled beneath my feet, and I shivered as I looked at the crumbling house. It turns out that this is the anger of the earth dragon.

"Ah Shi......" Si'er slowly opened his eyes in my arms.

"Don't be afraid!" I hugged her tightly.

Suddenly, the terrible earth movement finally passed, and everything that had just happened was only a moment, but it made me feel incomparably long.

"Sister Si'er......" Xiao Jiu woke up faintly, but a mouthful of blood foamed out of his mouth.

"Xiao Jiu, what's wrong with you?" The three people, who had been in a state of panic, hula, all surrounded them.

Yin Duo helped Xiao Jiu up, reached out and pinched the back of his shoulder twice: "Fortunately, I didn't hit my head, but my shoulder was dislocated, so I have to take it back quickly." ”

"Which of you would?" Si'er looked worried.

"Well, I'll try!" Yin Duo gently raised Xiao Jiu's hand and reminded, "If you endure it, it will hurt a little." ”

Xiao Jiu glanced at Si'er, who was full of anxiety, and nodded heroically: "Come on!" ”

"Come on, ......" As soon as Yin Duo's words fell, we heard Xiao Jiu's howl like killing a pig.

"Did you pick it up?" Si'er asked urgently.

"Okay, it's just that the shoulder bone is a little swollen, and I have to rub it for a few days. Xiao Jiu, how do you feel now? Can the hand move? Yin Duo gently put down Xiao Jiu's hand and said with concern.

"Yes." Xiao Jiu turned his arm, looked up at me, and said timidly, "Wizard, I'm ashamed again, right?" ”

"No, you are very brave, thank you for saving Si'er." I held Xiao Jiu's hand and was moved in my heart.

"Then the sorcerer will marry the fourth sister to me!" Xiao Jiu endured the pain and pulled a smile, trembling and took out a piece of white jade the size of a bird's egg from his arms and handed it to me, "This is the ancestral heirloom of my family, and it was rewarded by my great-grandfather when he worked for the nobles." Wizard, you take it first, and when the geese fly back this year, I will go and hunt a goose to propose marriage. ”

I have followed Shi Mo in the past year, and I have seen countless rare treasures, and if you want to talk about jade, it is better than this one in the yard used to emboss the clay. But what I am holding in my hand at the moment is not jade, but the sincerity of the fool Xiao Jiu to Si'er. Perhaps, the son of brocade clothes and jade food can use a city as a dowry, but in my opinion, it is not worth the mottled white jade in front of me. I handed the jade into Si'er's hands and sighed, "You can tell him yourself!" ”

I pulled Yin Duo and left silently, giving up the quiet courtyard to Si'er and Xiao Jiu.

"What are you thinking?" Yin Duo asked.

"I'm thinking, even if you don't have anything in this life, as long as there is a person who is willing to sacrifice for himself and give everything, it will be worth it. Nothing else, it doesn't matter. ”

"Presumably there are already people who treat you like this." Yin Duo looked at me with a deep gaze.

I smiled and nodded, and then bowed deeply to him: "Thank you for your life-saving grace!" Tomorrow's sacrificial son will do his best! ”

Yin Duo looked at the newly built mud rooms in the ruins, and said in a low voice: "You don't have to thank me, you came here for the safety of Jinyang City, and I naturally want to protect you." Go, go find him! ”

I bowed slightly, pulled up my hem, and galloped towards Xicheng.

Houses, trees, and crowds flew past me, and I ran as hard as I could, like a lark that had broken free from its cage, flapping its wings and flying towards the sky I had missed for a long time. I want to see him, crazy to see him!

In front of the crumbling ruins, I finally saw a figure running like me.

"Ah Shi-" He was like a cyan whirlwind, instantly blowing in front of me, and his arms wrapped his arms around me, and I was firmly in my arms, "I was about to look for you......" He buried his head in my hair, his voice trembling uncontrollably.

I clutched his clothes tightly and hid myself in his arms.

"Just scared you? Is everyone okay? He stroked my hair, trying to soothe the fright I had just suffered.

"Well, it's all good." I hugged his waist and poked my head out, "Hongyun'er, I figured it out, let me accompany you to Qi Kingdom, I don't want to be separated from you anymore!" ”

"What do you say? Behave, say it again. "The unique voice of the shirtless, soft, coquettish, and coaxing sounded again.

I looked up at the owner of the voice and said word by word: "I don't want to be separated from you again, I will accompany you to the Qi country, no matter how dangerous it is." ”

Shirtless stared down at me, his eyes seemed to be smiling, and there was a mesmerizing gleam of water in his dark pupils, and I was so bewildered by the light that I couldn't help but stand on my tiptoes and imprint a kiss on his fiery lips. The hand that was on my waist tightened, and then there was a lingering twist that made the world spin. My hand grasped the hem of his shirt tightly, and my heart seemed to be in an ocean, and I could only follow his movements, and I was lost.

Before I could suffocate, he left my lips and whispered in my ear, "Ah Shi......"

"Huh?" It was a hoarse voice I've never had before.

"So this is happiness......" he rested his head on my shoulder, his voice full of love.

I hugged him tightly, and a warm current suddenly poured into my heart, and the warm breath instantly dispelled the sadness hidden in my heart. It turns out that I can also be happy. In this city destroyed by the gods, in this barren ruin, we hugged each other, warmed each other, and time seemed to stop at this moment, and only the two of us were left between heaven and earth.

"You'll let me accompany you to the Qi Kingdom, right?" I asked.

"Well, why not?"

"I thought you'd say, it's too dangerous there."

"No matter how dangerous a place is, as long as I am here, you are safe."

"A man who is not ashamed!"

"You don't believe me?"

"I believe in you."

"In this case, when you arrive in Qi Country, you have to follow me inch by inch."

"Okay."

"Ride a horse."

"Hmm."

"Sit on a desk."

"Hmm."

"Sleep in a bed."

"Don't think about it."

"I'll take you to see the sea."

"Hmm."

"Don't like the man who gathers the ground."

"Hmm."

"If I can't beat anyone else, you must run away."

"Don't think about it."

…………

This time the ground movement knocked down most of the house that was originally tilted, but fortunately no one was killed, only a few craftsmen who were climbing on the roof to repair the house at that time broke their legs, and there were people like Xiao Jiu who were smashed in the head and back. As soon as the earth dragon made such a fuss, the ceremony was forced to be advanced by two days.

In the early morning of the second day, a drizzle fell in Jinyang City, the sky overhead was covered with gray-white clouds, and the mud under their feet was muddy, but this did not stop everyone's enthusiasm for the sacrifice in the slightest. The inhabitants of the city and the common people of several villages outside the city waited at the altar early, and by the time I got dressed and walked up to the altar, there was already a black crowd kneeling below.

I came to Jinyang this time, and Zhao Ying's task for me was to sacrifice to the gods and eliminate the disaster, so he specially ordered someone to make a "thousand feather robe" for me as the sacrificial clothes for this sacrifice. As the name suggests, a robe is a robe sewn from thousands of bird feathers. It was two feet longer than the average robe, had no belt around its waist, and the materials used ranged from the fluff on the lair's belly to the brocade feathers on the pheasant's tail, from the hard feathers on the harrier's eagle's wings to the soft feathers on the crow's head. The whole witch robe is exquisitely crafted and colorful, and it looks like a colorful cloud has fallen into the world from a distance. But what surprised me the most were the three azure feathers sewn into the witch's crown, which were said to be the feathers of the sacred bird Qingluan, which could help the sorcerer reach the gods.

Wearing a feather coat and proud of the sky, breaking through the clouds and asking for it.

Zhao Ying gave me this "Thousand Feather Robe" because he wanted me, the "Son of God", to fly to the Nine Heavens for him, and ask the Emperor of Heaven to bless him. So, when I first received this robe, I was more terrified than surprised. But now, looking at the group of people who have suffered from disasters under the altar, I hope that this "Thousand Feather Robe" can really lead me to the gods.

I stood still in the middle of the altar, and the copper tripod behind me was burning with true incense, green smoke was filling, the fragrance was full of nose, and thousands of people under the altar were silent. I closed my eyes, opened my lips lightly, and a song of praise for heaven, earth, mountains and rivers poured out of my mouth with mysterious syllables.

God, even if I am not your favorite, listen to my prayers, put away your anger, take care of your people, and accept our offerings......

In the drizzle, everyone sang the blessing songs handed down from ancient times with me, and the desolate songs resounded over the altar with the reverence of the ancestors for nature.

When all the rituals were completed, a round of the rising sun dispersed the dense clouds and hung a colorful rainbow bridge in the sky. The rainbow floated in the sky above Jinyang City, above it was a blue sky, and below it was Jinyang City bathed in sunshine. An irrepressible excitement swelled up in my heart, and in the pale golden light, I seemed to see a new, charming city rising from the ruins.

People cheered at the Rainbow Bridge, they hugged and ran, and I was moved to tears when I looked at their smiling faces.

"My Son of God, what did you just cry about?" After the ceremony, Wuxian took me to sit on the wall of Jinyang City.

"I don't know, maybe it's because they can laugh so happily after suffering such a catastrophe."

"Don't you think they're low?"

"No, they are nobler than me. Hongyun'er, I was just thinking about how nice it would be if I was really the Son of God, so that I could pray for the blessings of the people in the world. ”

"I wish you weren't the Son of God." Wuxian looked at the wilderness outside Jinyang City and said softly.

"Why?"

"If you pretend to be the world in your heart, how can you still have my place?"
