Chapter Eighty-Five: Burning the Nine-Tailed Fox

Yu Bai stood outside the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion, and surrounded a line of defense with the guards inside the National Teacher's Mansion, preventing the crowd who had lost their minds from rushing in, and at the same time shouting out to awaken people's sanity.

"You are all wrong, this plague has nothing to do with the nine-tailed fox, how can the nine-tailed fox be a divine beast and bring the plague, you should be sober. ”

But no matter what Yu Bai says, the crowd at this time is not something he can convince alone, not to mention that Yu Bai is a military general, his eloquence is average, and he can't speak well, so naturally he can't change the situation at this time.

So all he can do now is to block this main gate, not let the crowd crowd in, and guard the little flower inside.

Yubai also knows that Xiaohua's vitality is now greatly damaged, and it is no different from an ordinary fox at all, and if he is caught, he can only be slaughtered and unable to resist.

But what Yubai forgot was that the National Teacher's Mansion was not only the main gate, the crowded crowd was blocked at the main entrance, and soon it was a big circle, and finally found the side door and entered the interior of the National Teacher's Mansion.

And by the time Yu Bai heard the chaos in the house, it was already too late, and Yu Bai and the others couldn't use force under the internal and external attacks, and they were soon dispersed by the crowd, even if they wanted to squeeze in and take Xiaohua away, they couldn't do it.

In the end, under the strength of countless crowds, the stamen who slept peacefully in Junnanque's room was found after a while.

It's just that this group of people will not treat the stamen as gently as Junnan oak.

In order to prevent the stamen from escaping, they helped Xiaohua's four claws after catching Xiaohua, and at the same time tied Xiaohua's most of them together, for fear that Xiaohua would accidentally bite someone.

Then a few people who had already committed a disease but had mild symptoms carried the flowers, and went directly to the large square where the emperor inspected the army, and set up a shelf in the middle of the square, and the shelves were full of dry firewood brought from all over the place, and then the stamens were tied to the shelf.

Although the stamen struggled with all the strength of her body, at this time, because of the great injury of her vitality, how could the strength of a small fox be comparable to the strength of many adults, and in the end she could only be forcibly tied to the shelf.

Soon one of the leaders of the crowd came out, walked to the front of the pyre, raised his hands and pressed down, signaling for the crowd to be quiet.

Then the front row gradually died down, and the whole square gradually quieted down, without any rehearsal, but it was such a long-tested gesture that changed the noise that Yubai couldn't stop just now.

"You say how this plague came about. ”

The leader shouted loudly.

"It was brought by the nine-tailed fox. ”

The crowd responded loudly, and although it wasn't very neat, the reason for the number still sounded very shocking, resounding throughout the square.

"Do we have sorry for the nine-tailed fox?"

The leader continued.

"Nope. ”

There was another deafening shout, and the mood of the crowd was even higher than before, and it could be seen that the leader's eloquence was at a certain level.

"Then why do we suffer such a sin, suffer from the plague, almost every household has a disease, is it just because it is a divine beast that we should suffer such a sin, do you say it should?"

When the leader said this, his tone was full of accusations of fate, and the pain he suffered sounded empathetic.

"It shouldn't. ”

The shouts of the crowd rose and grew, like rising waves crashing against the cliff walls, and the sound was so loud that the ground trembled slightly.

At this time, the leader continued, but at this time, his expression changed, and his face became a little ashamed and a little grateful.

"I know that many people in the crowd have received the favor of the National Teacher, so they can't bear to burn to death or the adult's pet, but have you ever thought that it is because the National Teacher is confused by the nine-tailed fox, so the nine-tailed fox will have no fear.

As the support of the National Teacher, we should help the National Teacher get rid of the confusion of the nine-tailed fox, this is what we should do after receiving the kindness of the National Teacher, right?"

"Yes. ”

The crowd was silent for a while, then there were echoing sounds, and finally it merged into the torrent of the crowd's voices, becoming like a thousand tons of water suddenly tilting on the square.

The leader raised his hands and pressed down again, and the sound of the crowd soon fell silent again.

"So what are we going to do, what can we do to eliminate this plague and make our families better?"

The leader continued to ask.

"Burn it. ”

At this time, the crowd erupted into a more violent bombardment sound than before, even the sound of the landslide could not sound as the surging sound of the crowd at this time, and the sound of this wave becoming more and more neat was like the sky collapsing.

"Yes, burn it. ”

This time, the leader did not suppress the shouts of the crowd, but joined the shouting crowd and shouted along, and the torrent of sound continued to surge in the square, even rushing out of the square and spreading throughout Kyoto.

At last when the crowd shouted that they were tired, the voices became quieter, and finally there was calm and silence.

The leader continued to speak at this time, but after a hoarse shout, the leader's voice also became hoarse, but people could still hear what he was saying.

"At the beginning of the sacrifice to the heavens, light incense and make offerings. ”

After saying that, a few more sturdy men came out, and they also brought incense burners and tables and other things, but in an instant, they put out a full set of things to sacrifice to the sky in front of the people, just looking at the blood still left on the sacrifice, it was obvious that they had just been killed.

Then the leader found the side, and an old man with a white beard walked up and began to recite the sacrificial texts of the heavens, which were all orthodox and complicated ancient Chinese, so although everyone could hear what was said, they did not understand the meaning.

Then the old man recited the incense and changed it all over again, and finally finished reciting the sacrificial words to the sky, and then went down to return the position to the leader.

The leader's expression at this time also became extremely serious, obviously the major event of sacrificing to the sky was also extremely cautious for him, and he couldn't be sloppy at all.

After the sacrifice was finished, the nine-tailed fox was lit on fire. ”

When the leader had said this, he lit the torch in his hand and went up to light the firewood.

At this time.

"Stop!" a deep shout was accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves.
