Chapter Ninety-Five: Complex Seals

Every Holy Snow Maiden has the divine power to pray for snow and melt snow, and is the protector of the Red Stone Village under this Tianshan Mountain. And every Snow Maiden is a water magician. In these ancient books, there is a strange water magic, yes, it is the mysterious magic that the Holy Snow Maiden will use to pray for snow and melt snow.

Xie Qingxi felt that she had nothing to do anyway, so it was better to learn the mysterious magic in the book, after all, she was still thinking about the weeping blood hibiscus.

In the dark night, in the mysterious Ancient Temple of the Holy Snow Maiden, Xie Qingxi was selflessly cultivating her magic, and her powerful spiritual power turned the entire ancient temple into dazzling.

Her spiritual power has improved greatly, and a powerful warm current has filled the top of her head, which is a feeling that she has never felt before, and she has upgraded again in an instant, which makes Xie Qingxi feel that the magic in these books must have a greater secret.

After practicing all night, she quickly learned the magic in the book, and the last few pages of the book also recorded the ritual of the Holy Snow Maiden praying for snow melting.

Xie Qingxi showed an incredulous expression, there would be such a ceremony. The Snow Maiden and the villagers choose a person as a sacrifice, and if they want to pray for snow, they have to peel off the skin of this person and tie it into a scarecrow. If the snow is to melt, the person is to be tied to a wooden pillar and burned to death.

There was no snow melt in the Tianshan Mountains this time, and Hongshi Village may be facing a severe drought, so they set up an altar and prayed for the arrival of the Holy Snow Maiden, in order to create snowmelt and avoid the harvest of the next year, but it also means that one person will be burned to death.

Xie Qingxi remembered that he was under the altar during the day today, and he rashly went to recognize Gu Yanzhi, and almost caused him to become a person who was burned to death, but even if it wasn't Gu Yanzhi, there would be someone who would be burned to death. She couldn't watch a person being burned to death, so Xie Qingxi decided to help the villagers melt the snow and save the person who might be burned to death.

Now that he has learned the mysterious magic in the book, Xie Qingxi has planned to make it clear to the villagers tomorrow, rescue the person who became a sacrifice, and go with Gu Yanzhi to find Bai Lixuan.

After the plan was completed, Xie Qingxi slept peacefully in the temple.

Xie Qingxi got up early the next morning, and as soon as she walked out of the temple gate, she found that the villagers had already knelt outside the temple. "Everyone, get up, I'll definitely help you melt the snow."

Hearing Xie Qingxi say this, the villagers continued to kowtow and bow down with great gratitude.

"But I have one condition, please let go of the sacrifice that is going to be burned." Xie Qingxi's tone was full of determination.

When the villagers heard this, they were in an uproar, "What, put sacrifices?" How can this be?" Seeing this scene of discussion, the village chief took the initiative to step forward and bowed his head to Xie Qingxi and said, "This sacrifice is the gangster we caught, not the villagers. ”

"Then don't burn to death." Xie Qingxi's tone was full of indifference and firmness, and she sneered, "My blood melting ritual doesn't need sacrifices. At this moment, she seemed to think back to the distant beginning, when she first came to this world, when the people of the Xie family were indifferent, maybe they had little in common, but Xie Qingxi still felt a chill that she hadn't felt for a long time.

After Xie Qingxi finished speaking, he turned around and returned to the temple, and the villagers became restless again, "Maybe the current sacrifice is not chosen by the Holy Snow Maiden, and she is not satisfied with the sacrifice." "The villagers are talking." I see that the Holy Snow Maiden spoke to the grandson of the village chief yesterday, do you want to choose him as a sacrifice? ”

"Village Chief, this is a matter of life and death for Hongshi Village!"

"Village Chief, you have an idea!"

"Okay, if the Holy Snow Maiden chooses Yanzhi, I will definitely not show favoritism." Under the persecution of everyone, the village chief still painfully chose the obligations that the village chief should bear.

And Xie Qingxi, who was in the temple, didn't know that the villagers outside the temple had misunderstood what she meant. But now she just wondered why Gu Yanzhi didn't recognize her yesterday, and where did Bai Lixuan go?

The next night, the villagers returned to the temple and brought two men with them.

"Holy Snow Maiden, we have brought two people, please choose one as a sacrifice." There was a hint of nervousness in the village chief's respectful tone.

"I said, I don't want sacrifices......" Xie Qingxi raised her head sharply, and what she saw was Gu Yanzhi and Bai Lixuan, who was tied up with five flowers, her eyes rolled, she couldn't fight these villagers. Well, you put the two of them here, and I'll pick them carefully. Seeing that Xie Qingxi finally agreed to choose the sacrifice, the villagers breathed a sigh of relief and left easily, only the village chief's steps were a little heavy.

"Yanzhi, Li Xuan, I can be regarded as finding you." Xie Qingxi said as he untied the rope for Bai Lixuan.

"Do we know each other?" Gu Yanzhi and Bai Lixuan said in unison.

"You...... Have you forgotten? The three of us came to the Tianshan Mountains to find the Weeping Blood Hibiscus, and we were sent to this illusion by the snow-white griffin. Gu Yanzhi and Bai Lixuan still looked at Xie Qingxi in amazement.

Dreamland! By the way, this is a fantasy, and it is likely that they don't know themselves anymore. No wonder I heard the villagers say that Gu Yanzhi is the grandson of the village chief during the day. After seeing the illusion of the snow-white griffin, it is not to be underestimated.

"Leave that alone, go first, lest you be burned to death." Xie Qingxi decided that he wanted them to hide and go and send the villagers away.

"But what about the snowmelt ritual?" They were all about to be burned to death, and Gu Yanzhi was still thinking about this question, "This is a matter of life and death in Hongshi Village." ”

"I don't care, I don't want to be burned." After speaking, Bai Lixuan strode out, Gu Yanzhi's hesitation and Bai Lixuan's indifference made Xie Qingxi feel unfamiliar.

"Grab it." There was a noisy sound outside, Xie Qingxi followed and walked out, it turned out that the villagers had been guarding outside, and grabbed Bai Lixuan, who was about to walk out.

"Holy Snow Maiden, but there is a candidate?" The village chief saw that it was Bai Lixuan who came out, and he became even more nervous.

"The ceremony is scheduled for tomorrow when the sun rises, so the Holy Snow Maiden should hurry up and determine the sacrifice." A middle-aged man stood up with an aggressive look, "In order to prevent the two of them from escaping again, the villagers should take turns guarding it." After speaking, he took Gu Yanzhi and Bai Lixuan away.

If you directly save people, you will definitely hurt the villagers, which is what Xie Qingxi does not want to see. What to do?

The time for the sacrifice soon came, and the villagers walked to the altar one after another, and Xie Qingxi also followed the village chief to the altar.

On the way, Xie Qingxi asked the village chief about the weeping blood hibiscus, the village chief looked at Xie Qingxi, and said lonely: "Actually, the purpose of the sacrifice is to sacrifice the weeping blood hibiscus, only the sacrifice plus the snow melting magic of the Holy Snow Maiden can summon the weeping blood hibiscus and keep the party safe." ”

If you don't sacrifice a sacrifice, there will be no blood hibiscus, so what can you do?

With the first rays of the morning sun, the festival is approaching. The torch stand has been set up by the villagers, and Gu Yanzhi and Bai Lixuan have also been brought over.

The ceremony is about to begin, "Holy Snow Maiden, have you chosen your offerings?" "It's the man from last night again, "Is it Gu Yanzhi or this gangster from another village?" ”

"Holy Snow Maiden, no, didn't you promise us that you wouldn't take us as sacrifices?" Bai Lixuan saw that the situation was not good, and struggled hard.

"Shut up, you don't have to speak." The man kicked Bai Lixuan's stomach, cursing in his mouth, Bai Lixuan covered his stomach and wailed.

"I decided." Xie Qingxi stood on the altar, raised his head, and his tone was full of coldness.

The expressions of the people in the audience were different, Gu Yanzhi, Bai Lixuan and the village chief were all very nervous, while most of the villagers were relieved.

"That's him!" Xie Qingxi pointed at the man who had been coming out, and sure enough, he shot the first bird. The man's face changed instantly from the smugness at the beginning, and he looked at Xie Qingxi in disbelief, "No, how could it be me, shouldn't it be the two of them?" The man was so frightened that he began to speak incoherently.

The villagers couldn't accept it at first, but no one dared to contradict the decision of the Holy Snow Maiden, and at the urging of the village chief, who put the overall situation first, the villagers finally decided to help the man onto the pillar of the altar.

The man wailed in despair, Xie Qingxi looked at him and then at the insensitive villagers under the stand, and sneered helplessly.

The altar pillar was ignited, Xie Qingxi mobilized the spiritual power in her body, and in an instant, her whole body was filled with light blue spiritual power, and finally the spiritual power surrounded her body and gathered in the palm of her hand, and she quickly completed the complex seal.
