At the beginning, the flower god sacrifice originated from the flowers blooming everywhere in Ningxia, and the flowers became the economic source of the people of Ningxia, and there are beautiful legends about the god of flowers handed down from ancient times, so that the god of flowers occupies an important position in the hearts of the people of Ningxia. Over time, it has evolved into a folk event that prays for a good harvest and good weather.

The flower temple is in the east of the city and covers an area of about 800 square meters. Entering from the gate, the stone steps under your feet are smooth and stretch up, and the strange rocks on both sides of the stone steps are craggy, the grass and green are green, and the flowers are like brocade. The stone steps are ninety-nine steps in total, go straight to the front of the temple, there is a stone statue erected in the temple, step on a hundred flowers, wear a garland on the head, wear a wide-sleeved fairy skirt, show the posture of flying immortals.

Today, the sun is shining, and although there are many dwarf bushes around the flower temple, it is not enough to hide from the sun, which also blocks the footsteps of many high-ranking girls.

Qingge, Banxia, and Su Ye looked at the towering steps under the scorching sun, you look at me, I look at you, Yan Sangyun, who was standing behind a few people, quietly observed their expressions, he was a person who practiced martial arts, this temperature was nothing to him, and he was not an arrogant son.

"I don't care! Since he came out with Su Ye, he was ready to sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman. Qingge looked at Banxia and Su Ye, not minding the scorching sun at all.

"I don't care, just look at Su Ye." Banxia shrugged.

"I can hold on, let's go!" Su Ye smiled sweetly.

"Mmmmmmmmmmmm......mmmm

"What? Brother Yun has an opinion. Qingge spoke, and the three of them looked back at Yan Sangyun in unison.

"No, no." Yan Sangyun shook his head hurriedly, his gaze was too hot, he couldn't bear it.

"It's good if you don't have it, let's go."

When I came to the temple, it was already full of people. Despite the struggles, several people slowly moved forward through the crowd.

"There is still half a pillar of incense before the time starts, why haven't you seen the Elder of the Hundred Flowers and the Goddess of Flowers?" Someone in the crowd asked.

"What's the hurry, I'll see you later, the sacrifice is a big event, whether the wind and rain can be smooth in the coming year depends on today, the elders and the flower goddess can't prepare well." Someone answered.

"That's it, that's it." Someone chimed in.

At ten o'clock at noon, I only heard a loud sound, followed by a loud voice: "The sacrifice has officially begun, please Elder Baihua and the Flower Goddess, everyone is quiet." ”

The crowd, which had been noisy a second ago, suddenly fell silent. I saw a white-haired old man holding a cane and wearing a cyan robe walking steadily to the temple, followed by a fairy flower goddess.

"Noon has arrived, please Shengding." The old man's deep voice spread out in all directions.

Qingge pulled Banxia and Su Ye to take a step forward, just enough to see everything.

Four big men staggered and came with a triangular round bronze tripod. The tripod is carved with a lifelike five-clawed flying dragon green dragon, red eyes and long beard, Xingyun spit mist, due to the age, some places of the big tripod have been worn.

"Kamika"

I saw a person holding three pillars of long incense and handing it to the Elder Baihua, the elder walked to the tripod, bowed deeply, and then inserted the incense in his hand into the tripod, and the smoke filled the air.

"Scattering the rain of flowers" The old man looked at the flower goddess.

A maid presented a basket of flowers, and in the blue were delicate petals with raindrops. Shion took the basket of flowers, grabbed the petals with her slender fingers and threw them into the air, and after repeating this three times, she handed Lan Zicong back to the maid.

Qingge is regretting that this link is not amazing enough, and suddenly countless colorful petals fell from the sky, like a goddess scattering flowers, fragrant and overflowing, fascinating people's eyes.

"Wow! It's beautiful! Su Ye reached out to catch the fallen petals and put them under his nose to smell them.

"Yes! The fragrance of this flower is really strong. "Qingge reveled in the fragrance of flowers.

"Qingge, hold your breath." Banxia on the side suddenly shouted in Qingge's ear.

Qingge's face changed, and he didn't ask much, and immediately did so.

No one in the crowd noticed the anomaly, and the sacrifice moved on to the next step.

"Salute the god of flowers, a bow." There was a waiter who spoke in place of the elders.

Everyone bowed down respectfully and began to bow one after another.

Qingge and Banxia also bent down obediently.

"Two Bows"

"Three Bows"

"After the ceremony, please pray for Elder Baihua."

Elder Baihua handed the cane in his hand to the attendant, folded his palms, closed his eyes, and began to pray silently.

People quietly watched Elder Baihua pray, and no one made an inappropriate sound, until a stick of incense passed, Elder Baihua opened his eyes, and the prayer ended.

The final step of the "Offering to the God of Flowers" sacrifice is to offer an object to the god of flowers.

Seven maids walked out in an orderly manner, each holding a tray in their hands, and carefully entered the temple.

In the tray are placed respectively: flower clothes, flower hairpins, flower pollen, flower nectar, flower cakes, flower fruits and a dagger.

Qingge looked at the dagger suspiciously, and soon her doubts were answered.

I saw the flower goddess enter the temple, pick up the dagger in the last tray, hold the handle of the knife in her right hand, hold the tip of the knife in her left hand, and with a slight stroke, blood flowed down the palm of her left hand, and a maid brought up a pot of very delicate flowers, and the blood flowed on the flowers and invaded the soil.

Seeing that the sacrifice was about to be completed, and how perfect everything was, the faces of the people who watched quietly showed joy. Suddenly, the sky darkened, and the sky was clear just now, cloudless, and the sun made people's scalps tingle, and it was fleeting.

Someone in the crowd became agitated, and Elder Baihua's face turned pale, and his heart was horrified.

"Everyone, don't be impatient, this is a sign from the flower god Niangniang, and the dark clouds will soon disperse." Although Elder Baihua was uneasy in his heart, he still calmed down and presided over the overall situation.

"What do you think? Qingge. Banxia on the side sang with his hand crutches.

"Is this someone trying to be a demon? My life is so hard, I can do something every time. Qingge smiled.

"Hurry up and withdraw now" Banxia had a bad premonition.

"Sister Qingge, I'm a little dizzy." Su Ye shook his head.

"What's wrong? Su Ye. Yan Sangyun, who was standing behind Yan Suye, changed his expression.

"Brother Yun, have you noticed anything abnormal?"

"The scent of the petals just now is wrong, and I feel it too."

"Let's go quickly" Qingge helped Yan Suye, and the four of them began to retreat.

"How do I feel dizzy." There were constant voices of discomfort in the crowd.

"Am I dazzled? What do you think that is? Suddenly, someone shouted.

"Monsters, monsters." Someone screamed in horror.

"Ah...... Monsters, help. ”

The originally quiet crowd exploded, screaming again and again, and people panicked and fled in all directions.

Before the four of them had retreated, they were dispersed by the panicked crowd, and Qingge cursed and walked in the direction of the exit.

A little girl suddenly fell down in front of Qingge, Qingge quickly went to help each other, who knows, another figure fell down and pressed on Qingge, the center of gravity was unstable, and the three of them rolled together.

Before Qingge could get up, one foot stepped on Qingge's body, hurting Qingge to the point of baring his teeth.

People were being tracked by monsters who didn't know what to do, and after a while, the frightened young men and women fell and fell, and the scene was chaotic.

"Are you okay? Miss Ye. ”

A slender hand stretched out in front of Qingge.

Qingge looked at a pair of worried eyes, but he never thought that he would meet him here.

"I'm fine." Qingge took the other party's hand and got up.

"Let's get out of here first."

"I'm afraid it's too late." Qingge stared at the monster behind Qu Dongqing, creepy.

I didn't know why just now, but now at a glance, the front of the Flower Temple was in a mess, the ground was covered with corpses, and the blood stained the entire Flower Temple, and the mourning was all over the field, but it was only a few breaths, and all the brave people were staring at them with their fierce eighteen eyes. Yes, read that right, a monster with eight small heads clustered around a large head and a fox with nine tails in the shape of a handle.

"Damn, isn't this Ningxia rich in monsters?"

Qingge squinted at Banxia that came out of nowhere.

"Why didn't you leave?" Qingge asked as he stiffened.

"I went out and waited for a while and didn't see you, and I'm back." The two of them bit their ears quietly, for fear of angering the monster in front of them.

"Are you stupid? What are you doing when you're gone, you pig brain. Qingge couldn't wait to slap his palm, afraid of dying for half a summer.

"Save your energy! How to deal with it? These people are really ruthless, releasing such a thing. ”

"If the two girls don't mind, just stand behind them, such a brute, I am enough alone." Qu Dongqing took out the jade flute on his waist and turned it in his hand.

Qingge and Banxia glanced at Qu Dongqing at the same time, and consciously took a step back, they didn't mind very much.

The monster threw away the arm in its mouth and approached step by step. Qingge swallowed his saliva, is he really okay alone?

The monster suddenly leapt to its feet and lunged at the trio.

Qu Dongqing was not afraid, flew up, and greeted him.

A man and a beast are facing each other in mid-air, the monster opens its bloody mouth and is about to bite Qu Dongqing's arm, Qu Dongqing rotates, avoids lightly, and the jade flute in his hand stabs the monster's lower abdomen, the monster eats pain, and makes a scream, the cry is like a baby crying, which makes people panic.

"Girl, can you lend me your sword?" Qu Dongqing shouted to Banxia.

Banxia understood, threw the sword into the air, Qu Dongqing caught it steadily, pulled out the scabbard, spun out like a gallop, aimed at the monster's head and swung the knife straight down, and then gently landed on the ground, cutting off the monster's two heads.

The monster let out a terrible cry and rushed towards it like thunder and lightning in a rage.

Qu Dongqing thundered quickly and drove straight into the monster and took down the two monsters.

"Squeak, Qingge, your friend is too powerful." Banxia stroked her chin with a look of adoration.

"It's not like a friend, I've only seen it twice, but I didn't expect it to be hidden." Qingge was also shocked.

"I don't care if I'm a friend or not! Such a master must be a friend. ”

The two discussed while watching the battle between man and beast.
