Chapter 3: The Moon God Ceremony Meets Qing

The next night, Hua Feng opened his worried eyes and vaguely heard the sound of the people outside busy, he rolled out of bed and ran out, wanting to see what was going on.

The tribesmen are preparing sacrifices to the moon god, as well as the spirit runes and sky lanterns. The high priest wore a black black cloth cloak, hiding his entire face under a blue mask, and commanding some people to line up in strange formations, and those people were also wearing silver-gray cloaks, and their body shapes and positions were complex and changeable, and the eyes of the windy wind were dizzy.

"Uncle, what are they doing?" the little one ran to the patriarch's lap and lay on his stomach, his cherry red hair dancing in the wind, and his purple pupils glinting.

"They're preparing for the Clan's Sacrifice to the Moon God. ”

"Ah, where is that ceremony going on, is there anything fun? I'm going too!"

"Children can't go casually, they will be eaten by the moon god!" Hua Yin said with an evil expression on his face, intimidating the little guy.

At this time, a soldier quickly ran to the patriarch's voice and whispered in his ear: "The high priest asked me to repay the patriarch, and in less than an hour, the blood moon will appear." ”

Hua Yin got up and put on a black cloak, went out, turned back to the little people in the house and said: "Xiaofeng, don't be naughty, after the ceremony is over, I will come back, and at that time, I will take you to the back mountain to play." ”

Then he threw out a prohibition, and the figure disappeared into the house.

Sitting alone in the house, Hua Feng missed the cat on the old locust tree in the back mountain, to be precise, the story told by the cat. He touched the jade pendant on his chest, the crystal clear material, warm and smooth, the whole body was ink-colored, without the slightest flaw, and the appearance looked like a smart fish.

He looked at Yu Pei and was quietly in a daze.

At that time, Hua Feng liked to play with this jade pendant the most, so he would run to his uncle and ask several times, "Uncle, where did this jade pendant come from?"

Uncle picked him up, put him on his lap, pulled his little face, and tirelessly told him, "That's a gift from God." ”

Hua Feng stroked the jade pendant in his arms and held it high in front of his uncle, "Oh? Then why does it look like a fish?"

"Ha, that's good, you can eat it when you raise it. Uncle said as he blew Hua Feng's nose with his index finger.

Hua Feng jumped out of his uncle's arms, clutched the jade pendant tightly in his hand, and ran back and forth in the house. "No, I don't want it, I'm going to carry it all the time!"

Outside the window, the moon has slowly appeared, and unlike before, tonight's moonlight is sprinkled on the earth like blood, yes, the moon is blood red, and under the blue sky, it looks particularly enchanting.

Perhaps it was the effect of the prohibition that the moonlight shone through the window, returning to its former silvery whiteness. When Hua Feng just put down the jade pendant in his hand, the inky fish-shaped jade pendant flashed with a faint red light.

Knock knock~

At this time, someone outside the window was tapping on the windowsill.

"Who is there?" Hua Feng was a little puzzled, everyone should have gone to the Moon God Sacrifice, who would come to visit at this time?

"It's me, can you come out and play with me?" said a childish voice outside the window.

Hua Feng slowly opened the window, but saw nothing, and was about to close it, but heard someone speak again, "I'm here, stupid." ”

I saw a six- or seven-year-old girl half-squatting next to the house, dressed in a light blue dress, wearing red coral on her head, looking at Hua Feng with bright eyes, pouting a small mouth, and a touch of blush on her face.

Hua Feng looked at her with some fascination, and was distracted, purple spread in her pupils, and she didn't speak for a long time.

"What are you looking at, don't you want to come out?" Being stared at by him like this, the girl was a little angry, and turned to leave, "If you don't go, then I'll go by myself." ”

"Hey, I didn't say I wouldn't go" Hua Feng hurriedly jumped out of the window and chased after him.

And, there is a strange thing that the little guy didn't notice, why did the prohibition set by the patriarch disappear at this time?

The blood moon still hung in the sky, and through the layers of branches and leaves in the trees, the dappled moonlight shone on the two villains.

I don't know if it was the influence of this blood-red moonlight, or the first time I was alone with a girl, Hua Feng felt uncomfortable, as if something was constantly colliding in his body.

"I ...... My name is Hua Feng, you ...... What's your name?" Hua Feng plucked up the courage to open his mouth first, but he was still a little nervous when he spoke.

"My name is Yuexue, and I'm from another tribe. The little girl was jumping with her hands behind her back. Turning his head to look at Hua Feng, he asked, "Why are you staying in the house, aren't you bored?"

"I don't want to, what kind of moon god ceremony are they holding, my uncle won't let me go, saying that children will be hooked to their souls, and they also set a ban in the room. Hua Feng said aggrievedly, suddenly thought of the ban, and stopped, "Hey, then, why is the ban gone?"

The little girl smiled slightly, like a snow lotus blooming in the cold night, beautiful and beautiful, moving, "Follow me and you'll know!" She ran towards the back mountain, leaving Hua Feng in place.

"Hey, Yuexue, wait for me!" Hua Feng chased after him again, muttering to himself, strange, he felt a little tired after just walking a few steps.

After a while, the two little ones had arrived at the old locust tree in the back mountain, and at this time, there was no one under the tree, and the black white-tailed cat was nowhere to be seen. Hua Feng thought, 'It's probably going to the ceremony, too.'"

The breeze is blowing, on the quiet sky, there is a red moon hanging, countless stars are flashing and flashing, like the light of a lover's eyes, two people are chasing fireflies around the old locust tree, running, chasing, innocent smiling faces blooming, fresh laughter is scattered.

When they got tired of playing, the two little people snuggled up to the old locust tree and sat down.

The night has passed the third watch, and the moonlight is getting redder and redder, and the red is a little dazzling. In the distance, there was a sacrificial ballad, and it fell together, the one that rose was loud and deep, and the one that fell was like a turn and melodious.

Under the moonlight, the singing voice stretched into her ears, Fenghua felt a little dizzy, and looked at Yuexue in a daze, "Yuexue, where are you from? I don't think you belong here." ”

"I, from that far away, there are beautiful mountains, beautiful houses, clouds and mist, but beautiful!" Yue Xue pointed to the sky.

"Oh," Fenghua looked at her little hand, and although she hadn't been there, she always felt that it was familiar.

Suddenly, Yue Xue Mu looked at the night, a groan came from her ears, and when she came back to her senses, she said to the person next to her with some nostalgia, "I should go, Fenghua." ”

"Then, I'll send you. Fenghua patted her ass and got up to keep up with her.

It was nearly three and a half o'clock in the night, and in the depths of the dark forest, there were faint bursts of wolf howls, accompanied by the rustling of leaves, which made people feel a biting chill.

Fenghua grabbed Yuexue's little hand tightly, raised her chest, her eyes were firm, like a big man, and turned her head to tell Yuexue, "Don't be afraid, I'll protect you!"

At this moment, the night became silent for a moment, and at first, a mist rose in the woods, and at some point, the fog was like sand, and it was so great that I could not feel the direction of progress, nor could I see the way back. Suddenly, Yuexue grabbed Fenghua and stood still.

In the dream-like fog, several undetectable figures suddenly appeared beside them with a very cold aura.

Who are they? No one knows, no one has ever seen them, such a horrible appearance, scarlet eyes, a mouth full of fangs, blood dripping from the corners of their mouths, covered in black and gray fur, sturdy figures, hands, no, they are sharp claws, as if they can tear everything apart with a slight wave!

"You ...... Be...... Who?" Fenghua had never seen such a terrible creature, but he still asked them in a deep voice, because he had said that he wanted to protect her.

One of the monsters in the group looked at the little guy evilly, his scarlet tongue licking the corners of his mouth, the saliva on the side of his mouth was three feet on the ground, he smiled wantonly, and did not answer his words, "I was thinking, your meat must be delicious, but ......"

"But what?" Fenghua had been a little dizzy since he left the house and was exposed to the strange moonlight, but he still held on again.

One-eyed like a phantom, flashed in front of them, with its sharp claws, provoked Fenghua's chin, put his ugly face against Fenghua's ears, and the ugly hoarse voice filled the forest: "If you give her to me with your own hands, maybe, I will let them not eat you!"

One by one, the monsters bared their fangs, roaring, and groaning. Fenghua looked at them, gritted his teeth, and was about to run away with Yuexue, but as soon as he jumped up, he was knocked out by One-Eyed with a wave of his hand.

"Don't!" Yuexue looked at Fenghua's young figure falling into the fog, tears filled her eyes, she felt inexplicable heartache, tearing something, as if she was deprived of her beloved things.

Hua Feng, who was slapped on the ground, sneered, turned over, grabbed the moon snow, like a scattered fallen leaf, and shuttled through the forest with a light posture. Fly into the distance.
