As for the dense holes on the body of the sacrifice that were filled with silver needles, mercury was poured into them without leaking.

In order for the mercury to condense into a solid state, the priests would place the offerings in the ice chamber overnight.

The ice chamber is covered with snow. Exhale a breath and it can instantly condense into rime-like ice cubes in the air.

Such temperatures are not tolerable for ordinary people, so the priests will deliberately seal the last vestiges of the sacrifice in the heart of the sacrifice, so that it will enter a state of ignorant and unconscious suspended animation before entering the ice chamber.

In this way, after a whole night of freezing, the body of the sacrifice was frozen hard, and the temperature on the surface of the skin had already dropped to below zero.

At this point, mercury is injected into their bodies through the holes.

The liquid mercury quickly condensed when cold, forming silver shining dots of light on the surface of the sacrifice's body.

When the midday sun hangs high over people's heads, the hottest sunlight falls on the earth.

The bright light shines unreservedly on these silver points of light, and it also shows a kind of hard metal beauty.

At noon, when the light was at its highest, the sacrifices were placed on a high altar, and the last shred of vitality sealed in the heart was released. Amid the passionate and obscure chanting of the priests, the sacrifices lost their last shred of life in the most desperate agony.

Because of the mercury infused with them, their bodies can be preserved intact and remain in the same condition as they were sacrificed.

At that time, people believed that as long as the body of the deceased was not corrupted, then his soul would always be imprisoned in it, and whether it was a hundred years or a thousand years, the soul would be forever bound and unable to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

But in fact, although the body and the soul are inextricably linked, these connections do not include the immortality of the body and the immortality of the soul.

For example, the original owner Yun Weiai, her soul has long been beyond the shackles of flesh and body and has fallen into reincarnation.

After walking across the Nai He Bridge and drinking Meng Po soup, the painful memories of the previous life disappeared.

Therefore, in Yun Weiai's memory, there was not the slightest trace of the Temple of Light and sacrifices.

Although those painful memories have dissipated, some memories are faintly preserved.

For example, the back that always appears in the mind of the original owner, the sky that is either bright or dark

Suddenly, all the wall lamps around it lit up, and the thick darkness was dispelled, and the hall was brightly lit.

The bright yellow light gilded everything in the hall with a warm glow, and the previously cold and temperatureless metal softened in an instant.

Unlike the splendid temple, everything in the temple is made of silver.

Whether it is the high steps, the picture frames on the surrounding walls, or the neatly displayed coffin-like things in the distance, they all shone with a silver cold light.

The paintings on the walls look very ancient. Despite being carefully framed and properly sealed in a silver frame, the paper still looks a little yellowish.

The yellowed paper has become more and more brittle after the erosion of the years, like the yellowed fallen leaves in autumn, and you can make a crisp "crunch" sound when you step on it gently.

But even so, the colors painted on the paper are still clearly recognizable
