Chapter 43: Bloody Rain
Pinning the short knife under her dress, Wuge's delicate little face was covered with gloom, and she walked quickly towards the altar.
If her blood is really yin and yang blood, it will mean that her life will never be peaceful in the future.
But she is just an ordinary little demon, how can she have yin and yang blood flowing on her body?
When Wu Ge returned to the altar with a heavy heart, the originally empty venue was overcrowded at this time, and the voices were boiling, and at first glance, it was as lively as a bazaar.
"Holy Maiden, the national teacher has sent people to look for you several times, where did you go. Kou asked her, sweating profusely.
"No, I'm a little nervous, go for a walk. Wuge casually lied.
The chariot was surrounded by soldiers, and Coco helped her to climb onto the chariot, and cheers rang out all around.
Wuge looked around, but she didn't see Mo Xingran's figure, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
Before leaving, he said that there were still some things that he hadn't figured out, and let her set off first so as not to arouse the suspicion of the national teacher, and he arrived later, but seeing that the ceremony was about to begin, he hadn't arrived yet.
"Koko, did you see Mo Xingran and Bamboo?" asked Kokoo in a low voice.
Kou Ko took a feather fan and gently fanned Wuge: "I didn't see Brother Mo, but the bamboo has been sent by the national teacher to take the seat." She raised her hand and pointed to a row of curtains not far away, behind which several tables and chairs were placed.
In the curtain, Wuge saw that Zhuzi was waving his little hand at her vigorously, and there were Ran Ling and Feng Jue sitting beside him.
Wuge frowned, she always felt that Ran Ling's eyes looked at her with bad intentions.
————
After a while, there was a low sound of horns in the altar, and several people wearing animal skins stood around the stone pillars on the edge of the field and blew the horns, and the crowd that was still noisy suddenly fell silent.
Ji Sheng slowly walked into the altar from behind the curtain, today he is still dressed in a silver robe, and the wind blows his silver hair like a waterfall, making him look so dusty.
"Today, the Crowned Moon Country will hold its annual rain prayer ceremony, and as you must know, this year our country has given birth to the first-ever Holy Woman, and she will bring the sincere prayers of the people of the Crowned Moon Country to our gods. Ji Sheng raised his slender hand and motioned for Wuge to come to the field.
Wuge sighed secretly, it was all about to begin.
In the breath of everyone, she moved the lotus step lightly, step by step towards Ji Sheng in the center of the altar.
When she placed her soft hand in Ji Sheng's palm, Wuge couldn't help but tremble, how to say it, his hand was as warm as a piece of ice.
Ji Sheng smiled, then took her hand and held it high in the air, and the passionate voice spread to every corner of the altar: "God bless me with the Moon Country, the country and the people are safe, and the wind and rain are smooth." ”
Immediately, the crowd erupted in earth-shattering cheers, and people threw their flowers into the air, and clusters of petals rained down on the altar.
This is the rain of flowers, which indicates our sincerity in praying to God. Ji Sheng whispered with a smile on his face.
Wuge pretended to smile back, but his heart was full of disdain, if there were really gods and Buddhas in this exquisite array, how could he allow him Ji Sheng to do evil here.
Ji Sheng waved his sleeves, and the altar they were on suddenly rose from the ground, forming a round platform that was one person high.
Out of nowhere, the water curtain shrouded this high platform, and suddenly the stage was filled with a little smoke and clouds, and the beauty was like a fairyland.
Wuge, who was wearing a red dress, stood on the high platform, looking a little apprehensive.
However, at this time, Ran Ling and Feng Jue, who were under the stands, became vigilant, just because this scene was inexplicably familiar, it was the Linglong platform when they entered the formation!
There was a loud horn sound from the audience, and Ji Sheng said loudly: "The auspicious time is coming, and I also ask the holy woman to sprinkle the rain and dew all over the earth, and wish the crown moon country good weather in the coming year." ”
Ji Sheng handed a white jade bottle to Wu Ge, and a willow branch was placed in the white jade bottle.
Wuge's eyebrows jumped: "What do you mean." ”
"All you have to do is sprinkle the willow branches with dew on the earth, which means praying for rain. ”
Wuge laughed a little when he heard this, knowing that it was just going through the motions, it was quite like that.
Just as she picked up the willow branch and swayed it casually, the sky suddenly darkened.
Thick clouds rolled in, and the black oppression completely obscured the sky, and suddenly it became black and rumbling, and there was a 'boom' thunder in the dark sky.
Wuge's eyes widened: "No, did you really call me to recruit you?"
There was a sudden uproar in the altar, and there were bursts of exclamations from the crowd, and Ji Sheng's handsome sword eyebrows were tightly raised.
Born with a vision, this has never happened, everyone knows that this rain prayer ceremony is the folk custom of the crown moon country, just to pray for good weather in the coming year.
With a 'boom', a piercing thunder came from the sky, and someone in the darkness shouted: "God is angry, hail!"
With this scream, countless hailstones the size of stones fell from all over the world, and some people were hit in the head by the hailstones, and they fell to the ground, and a riot broke out in the crowd.
"Quickly dismiss everyone. Ji Sheng's voice suppressed anger, and he loudly ordered all the soldiers to disperse the crowd in the altar.
At this moment, there was a stabbing pain in Wuge's shoulder, and she fell to the ground with a scream.
In the dark, I don't know who released a cold arrow at her, and shot straight at her shoulder.
The hot blood on her shoulders gushed out, and she pressed her shoulders to struggle to get up, but the big hailstones hit her overwhelmingly, and she could only endure the severe pain and protect her head with her hands.
"National teacher, there is a flow of smoke and chaos, massacring the people in the venue. There was a soldier in armor in the audience who came to report against the hail, Ji Sheng picked up Wuge when he heard this, and jumped off the high platform, and those hailstones seemed to turn into mist as soon as they touched him.
The tip of his straight nose trembled, and he could smell the blood on Wuge's body up close.
His eyes turned red, and his body shook almost uncontrollably: "Su, Su." His voice trembled a little, and he lost his mind for a moment.
"But the smoke and the crowd fight may hurt the innocent. ”
Wuge took advantage of this time to hurriedly push Ji Sheng away, and hurriedly held down his shoulder and fled.
Ji Sheng reacted, couldn't find Wuge, grabbed the soldier's neck, and roared angrily: "Kill, don't worry!"
There was a crisp sound, and the soldier's throat was cut by Ji Sheng, and he lost his breath in an instant.
A thick puff of smoke slowly gathered on the dark canopy, and when the smoke hit, it was wrapped in a fishy wind, and in a few breaths, a huge bloody eye appeared on the canopy, like a blood-colored hole opened in the black sky.
Torrents of hail fell from the sky, and the blood-colored eyes were howling and crying.
Wuge ran wildly in the unknown direction, slamming into a warm chest.
Without saying a word, the man picked up Wuge and ran briskly towards the curtain.
"Mo Xingran, where have you been? Wuge let out an exhausted grumble and buried his head in his chest.
Mo Xingran ran into the curtain tent against the hail, and put Wuge on the seat: "I'm sorry, I'm late." ”
I heard Feng Jue screaming: "Third brother, look at it, that, that eye." ”
Mo Xingran looked up at the sky through the curtain, and he noticed that the blood-colored giant eye in the sky was staring at them for a moment.
"What's that!" Bamboo screamed.
"Sky Eater. Mo Xingran looked at the giant eye and replied word by word.
"How is that possible! Ran Ling exclaimed loudly.
Mo Xingran was silent, he deliberately broke everyone before the rain ceremony today, and went to the Qiankun Hall again, he went here to ask the old man about the Sky Devouring Beast, but the answer he got shocked him.
"The Sky Devouring Beast has become Ji Sheng's smoker. He lowered his head and said slowly.
As soon as these words came out, not only Feng Jue and the others couldn't close their mouths in surprise, but even Wuge raised his head in pain: "How is it possible? Isn't the Heaven Devouring Beast an Ancient Divine Beast?"
Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened. Mo Xingran returned a little weakly.
Unexpectedly, the existence of the Soul Sacrifice Great Array actually caused the ancient divine beasts to be infested with demonic energy, if it weren't for the insatiable greed of the Yan Clan in this exquisite array, the Soul Sacrifice Great Array would not have given birth to such a strong demonic qi.
"Without songs, maybe our plan is difficult to implement. Mo Xingran lowered his head and looked at Wuge.
The shock in Wuge's eyes has not subsided: "You mean, we can't kill Ji Sheng?"
"It's not that you can't kill it, it's that you can't kill it. ”
Just as Mo Xingran said this, there was a sudden roar in the sky, thick clouds rolled, and a white light shot out from the blood-colored giant eye, instantly piercing the dark sky and illuminating the entire sky white.
The curtain was swept over by a gust of wind, and several people were suddenly exposed to the hail, with nowhere to hide.
Not far away, the silver hair behind Ji Sheng was dancing in the wind, his eyes were blood-red, and his hands were stained with blood.
When he found Wuge and a few people, he sighed a little sadly: "So you are here, why are you running around?"
There were constant wails in all directions, pools of blood gathered on the ground, people fell to the ground in agony, and the cold hail continued to fall.
There was a low roar from the sky, like an ancient sleeping beast awakening, and the ground trembled slightly.
Ji Sheng walked towards Wuge and the others step by step, his steps were slow, and Jun still had a groaning smile on his face.
"If you want to kill me, don't hurt some of my friends. Wuge clutched his shoulders and swayed to his feet.
Mo Xingran blocked in front of Wu Ge, and he said in a deep voice: "Ji Sheng, you want to think clearly, why did you establish the Mianyue Kingdom, do you want to let the Yan Clan be destroyed in your hands?"
Ji Sheng snorted coldly and walked straight towards Wuge.
"You killed her today, but in ten years, your people will all be demonized, are you really willing to be a sinner of this Yan clan?" Mo Xingran raised his voice, and the look on his handsome face was incomprehensible.
"What do you mean by a sinner? I'm just trying to make the Yan clan strong again!" Ji Sheng suddenly roared.
The hail suddenly stopped, and the giant eye in the sky seemed to become the center of the vortex, absorbing all the light into the bottomless black hole.
The aura around Ji Sheng's body swelled, and with a wave of his sleeve, all the corpses on the ground rose into the air, and trickles of blood gathered from the corpses into a torrent, flowing into the bottomless black hole in the air.
He laughed wildly, opened his arms, and his silver hair was dyed blood: "If I hadn't done this, the Yan clan would have run out of oil and dried up, and now, I want everyone in the world to bury me and my dead father." ”
In a few breaths, the blood-red eye in the sky would suck all the corpses dry, and those corpses instantly turned into dried corpses, leaving only the shriveled skin to wrap the bones.
Ji Sheng lowered his head and suddenly looked at Wuge behind Mo Xingran: "Now, it's your turn." ”
