077 That Ancient Memory

Am I crossing over to someone else?

But why did the female voice say it was my own memory?

It is said that people will be reincarnated after death, and the fruits planted in the previous life will be repaid in the next life.

Thinking of Qin Luo and Su Han's peerless faces, is it because I haven't been in love in my previous life?

Before I had time to think about it, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a man with a batch of animal skins ran in from outside, covered in blood, and fell headlong in front of me.

The wounds were too deep and too deep to distinguish his appearance, and the freshly scabbed wound was bleeding as he opened his mouth.

"God... The Celestial Maiden... My lord, let's go...."

"What's going on? Don't talk yet. I hurriedly grabbed a handful of herbs from the nearby shelf and crushed the wound that covered him, acting so skillfully that it seemed like I had done it many times.

But he pushed me away, and said vaguely; "Leave me alone... Come on... Someone from Xia's side is here, and they want to arrest you by name. ”

"Natsu?"

I stared at him blankly, and a bloody picture welled up in my mind.

A man at the head held a large banner with a huge character "Xia" written on it.

Looking in that direction, it seems to be coming from this side of the village.

A group of two meters tall men, all muscles bulging, wrapped from head to toe in heavy armor, beneath them were the half-story tall beasts of the wilderness.

The Earth Swallower is extremely ferocious by nature, the armor on its body is three inches thick, and its sharp teeth can easily bite through a century-old tree.

"Celestial Maiden, did you see that? They have too many troops, our village can't hold it at all, you go quickly, if you leave, the hope of our Tuoba clan is there..."

As if it was no longer safe to enlist, a feathered arrow shot in from the outside with the sound of whistling wind, piercing the man's throat and nailing to the wall.

A living life is just passing away before my eyes, and there is nothing I can do.

I crouched on the ground and shook my hand to touch his snort.

His body was still steaming, but there was no more breath flowing.

An irrepressible anger swirled in my heart, and I walked out of the small bamboo hut, except for a few samurai with weapons in the courtyard, and only a few women and children remained.

They were gathered together, the expression on their faces was not desolate, but a kind of anger, especially those children, there was no trace of cowardice on their immature faces, and their dark eyes were rolling around, very smart.

Even if he was pulled by his mother, it was difficult to hide the war righteousness that emanated from his body.

"Heavenly Maiden, we are already destined to be unable to leave, you can go, only if you are gone, our sacrifice is worth it." When I came out, everyone's eyes converged, and the deep meaning in that gaze made me feel that the burden on my body was very heavy.

"But where can I go? Great Xia is so big, how many people can't get out of Yunmengze in their lifetime, where can I go? A paragraph subconsciously flowed out of my mouth.

Wolf smoke was already rising from the mountains in the distance, and I am afraid that it would not be long before those people came.

"No, Celestial Maiden, you are the hope of our Tuoba clan, as long as you exist, our Tuoba County will have a day to rebuild. We just hope that the secret we have guarded for so many years cannot be destroyed in the area. ”

"Yes, Celestial Maiden, leave with an oath, and we will never give up."

A cry of pleading souls surrounded me, and I watched the warriors with swords walking towards their children and women, and the head of the group muttered to himself: "Our Tuoba clan has no seeds, even if they die, they can't die in the hands of those bastards!" ”

As he spoke, he was about to raise his hand, but the women not only did not hide, but greeted him, looking generous and righteous.

No one cried, and they didn't say they wanted to run away, but this situation was even more uncomfortable.

"Is there no way?" I stared blankly at the sky, not like the gloom of modern times, but a translucent blue, clean that seemed to reflect all the dirt.

I saw a figure around the corner, it was the old witch here, and the old man who enlightened me.

He was the wise man of the clan, always dressed in a black robe.

No one knows his age, and no one knows their names. We all call him the old witch, and it seems that with him, he will feel at peace.

"Heavenly Maiden, if you exchange a thousand years of sleep for a glimmer of life, are you willing?"

I looked at him in a daze, the black robe not only covered his figure, but even half of his face was covered, revealing only a pair of eyes, like starlight eyes, which made people unconsciously attracted.

"If it's really possible, let alone sleep, even if it's for me to die right now."

"You don't need to die, you are our hope. Come with me. ”

My body followed him uncontrollably, and I reached the top of the tree.

It was a red-gold pillar with intricate patterns carved into it. Next to the pillar was a circular altar, and at the witch's request, I changed into clothes that were only for sacrifice.

It was the yellow robe, I can't say what it felt, it looked very heavy, but I didn't feel it at all when I wore it, as if I had been put on wings, and the whole person became light.

"Celestial Maiden, you have thought clearly, once the ritual begins, it cannot be ended, and the entire village will be closed because of your slumber, and even your soul will be broken into pieces, until one day you will be reunited, and you will not be able to reopen the seal."

"Ordered by heaven and died by the people, I was everyone's expectation, after so many years, it's time to do something."

"Then, please don't move under any circumstances, no matter what you see or what happens, you can't talk or move!"

"Did you do it?" His voice was very long, obviously people were near, but it sounded very far away.

I stood on a high place and looked at the people below, although I didn't know what the old witch's method was, but it would be good to be able to leave only one person behind.

"Hold a sacrifice ceremony!" The old witch, who had always needed to walk with a cane, suddenly threw out his dragon head wooden staff with a violent roar, and the cloak on his body puffed up, as if adding 3D special effects, and flew down from the tree.

The speed is extremely uniform, where is there still the feeling of an old man.

The people underground were also startled by his sudden outstretched hand, and the man who was about to knife his son also put down the knife in his hand.

"Old witch, it's all this time, do you still need to sacrifice?"

"Yes, old witch, although the tree is high, with the help of tools, you can still see that the Celestial Maiden is on it!"

The following gossip began to discuss, but all the discussion came to an abrupt end as the old witch spoke.

"As the old saying goes, the children and women go back to the house, and the men stay."

The old witch's voice was not high-pitched, but everyone had a solemn expression on their faces.

Many men actually laughed, and excitedly left all the lamps in their hands.

They turned around and hugged their wives and children hard, and then fell to their knees in front of me.

I tried to stop it, but the witch stopped me with secret words.

"That's what they're supposed to do."

Should it be done?

I didn't say anything more, and stood and watched as they knocked their foreheads on the ground, and the noise in the distance grew louder and louder.

The old witch waved his hand, and the men immediately threw all their women and children into the house.

Immediately after, hundreds of men gathered there, smiling at each other and stabbing their chests with their sharp daggers, blood spurting out, but not at the ground, but straight into my face.

Hot blood ran down my cheeks, staining my robe red.

They sang songs that I didn't understand, and one by one, they died in front of me.

At the same time, the old witch walked up to me, and out of nowhere, he found a very sharp golden hairpin, which pierced into my palm and forehead.

The pain of the distance made me dizzy, but I remembered his words in my mind, and I couldn't move, I could only watch.

More and more people fell in front of me, and I had already become a bloody person, and I couldn't count how much blood I had on my body.

I've heard of sacrifices, and I've heard of places where people are taken to worship their ancestors.

But I've never seen such a magnificent picture, and everyone's death is willing, and even full of gratitude to me.

Finally, after the last man fell, the old witch's body, which had been floating in the air to maintain the formation, suddenly fell sharply, and fell heavily to the ground, but the air was still singing the ancient and jerky ballad.

He glanced back at me, and his bright eyes had lost their luster and turned gray.

The hoarse voice came to my ears very clearly, "Heavenly Maiden, please hold on, your people will never abandon you!" ”

His body staggered, like a kite with a broken string, and it could fall completely.

At this moment, the soldiers and horses of Great Xia finally arrived.

The leader was more than two meters tall, and the devouring beast he rode was not the same as others', and his eyes seemed to have a sharp sword, as if he wanted to see me through.

My heart thumped, and the words of the old witch sounded in my head, and I stood motionless, letting my blood flow down my body and into the intricate pillar.

On the stone pillar, as our blood flowed in, the original gold also turned dark red, and the house on the ground shone with a golden light, and was enveloped.

Got this is called sacrificing me to keep the child? But the price is too high.

"You're the Celestial Maiden? Come down, surrender to me, and I will leave a blood in your village. ”

The man suddenly raised his hand, and the spear in his hand was aimed in my direction.

I only felt as if my body was being torn apart, as if the sword had been inserted into my body.

"Are you mute?"

Seeing that I didn't answer, he suddenly turned around and directly grabbed the old witch who was still chanting words on the ground, as if he hated the ugly song.

He even shouted angrily at the old witch: "Stop your messy noise, and let your heavenly maiden submit to me!" ”

The old witch tilted his head and glanced at him, the smile on his lips was very sarcastic.

His gaze suddenly turned to me...

The next second...

A head rolled to the ground.
