Chapter 1: The Mysterious Man in Black

Next Chapter

The savannah stretched as far as the eye could see, and the howling cold wind swept across the entire silence.

Beside the cold river, a young boy was soaked, his forehead was wounded, and bright red blood beads dripped down his hair into his eyes.

Why are you here? The mountain collapsed, the father and the emperor, and the queen mother. The boy was delirious and fainted again.

Sikou is located in a bitter cold place on the border, and in winter, the grass and trees are dry and cold.

The old woman pushed open the door, and the cold wind instantly invaded and filled the room. The woman hurriedly closed the door of the room, wrapped her clothes and headscarf tightly, and carried two buckets on her shoulders, trying to go to the river to get some water.

When I arrived at the river, I was about to fetch water, but I found that there was a person lying not far away, who seemed to be still a child, and was small and shrunk into a ball. How can you lie by the river on such a cold day?

The woman hurriedly ran to take a look, and sure enough, it was the size of a child, lying on the ground, but the clothes were too strange, and it should not be from Si Kouguo. The woman hesitated, but saw that the child was soaking wet and his hair was frozen, and if he left it alone, he would surely freeze to death. The woman stretched out her hand and pushed the boy tentatively, "Child? Child? ”

But there was no response.

While thinking about saving someone's life and winning the seventh-level floating slaughter, the woman reached out and turned the child over frontally.

When he saw the child's face, he was so frightened that he cried out, and quickly withdrew his hand and took a few steps back. The woman hurriedly turned her face to the side, not even daring to look at it again, and muttered in a panic, "Sin! Sin! Holy Light God bless bless! ”

The woman seemed to be afraid that she was dizzy and had seen it wrong. I looked at it again, it was really three eyes!

The woman didn't even have time to pay attention to the bucket she had been carrying, and ran in a hurry, saying indistinctly, "Sin, sin, sin." ”

Not long after, led by the woman, a team of horsemen appeared beside the river. The leader dismounted, stretched out his hand and turned the boy back, and saw that the child actually had a third eye on his forehead.

The leader was so frightened that he hurriedly withdrew his hand, and the cavalry around him also gasped and took a few steps back in fright. Although the woman reported it before she came, she still did not believe it, and knew that no one in the whole world dared to make such a big joke. I had to prepare for the conflict. It's another thing to actually see it now.

Thankfully, now the child is pale and his eyes are closed. Jiang Jie swallowed his saliva and stretched out his hand to the young man's forehead, wanting to break open the young man's closed eyes to see if it was true or false.

The cavalry behind gasped again, not daring to make a sound, although they said that they were royal soldiers, and they had never seen anything. Only now, it is not an exaggeration to say that the sin is heinous.

Jiang Jie found that his hand was trembling so much that he couldn't use his strength at all, so he had to withdraw his hand and turn to the child's neck, with a beating pulse. Confirm that the person is still alive. He instructed his subordinates, "Wrap up and sneak back secretly." ”

"Yes." The cavalry bowed their heads and took orders.

"The general, can I go back?" The woman asked Jiang Jie.

"Well, don't worry, this time you have merit, and the royal family will reward you." Jiang Jie looked at the poor ordinary woman.

"Thank you, thank you, your lord." The woman knelt on the ground and thanked the general, never expecting that one day she would see such a big man.

"But you'll have to trade something for that."

"Thank you, sir, what?" The woman knelt on the ground, unaware of the danger behind her.

Jiang Jie glanced at the subordinates behind the woman.

A silver scimitar pierced the woman's chest in an instant, and bright red blood spurted out and fell to the ground, leaving the only trace.

In the royal family of Si Ko Country.

The leader waited anxiously, and when he heard the news of the secret agent's return, it was indeed a young man with a third eye on his forehead. The leader was shocked, and he said sweatily, "Three-way eyes, isn't it naΓ―ve to condemn others?" ”

"Don't worry, Chief, seeing is believing. Five hundred years have passed, how can there be a three-way eye inexplicably? Said a gorgeous-looking woman in a black robe. The woman's forehead is dotted with holy light, summoning the dignity symbol of the position of the national teacher of Si Kouguo.

"Report, chief, the man has been secretly brought back."

"Let's go, let's see." The leader went with the national teacher, and the matter had to be resolved in secret. The sooner the better.

Si Kou Hongda couldn't really believe that he would really see one day, something that was only recorded in ancient books five hundred years ago.

A young man was lying on the bed, his face pale, and a forehead band tied around his forehead. The clothes he was wearing were obviously not the costumes of Si Kou Kingdom, but the costumes of Haoyuan Kingdom. Looking at his appearance, he really does not have the heroic and profound appearance unique to the Sikou people.

Si Kou Hongda stretched out his hand to untie the forehead band on the young man's forehead, and he saw the third eye closed on his forehead, which was lifelike, and it definitely didn't look like a fake. Hesitating, he stretched out his other hand to the young man's forehead, and his fingers gently broke open the eyelids between the young man's foreheads, and they were the same as ordinary eyes, with the whites of the eyes and eyeballs readily available.

Even the eyeballs rolled mischievously.

Si Kou Hongda was so frightened that his hands trembled and hurriedly withdrew. There is such a ridiculous thing. Hurriedly asked the national teacher behind him, "How should the national teacher do?" ”

"Chief, the minister thinks that he should be put into the furnace of offerings, and sacrifice to the heavens as soon as possible to make amends." Miao Kunyao looked at the young man on the bed, "We must not let him bring the disaster to Si Kou Kingdom." ”

"When will it be used in the furnace?" Si Kou Hongda asked.

"Immediately."

"So ,,," Si Kou Hongda wanted to say that it was too hasty, but he also knew that such a cursed thing should not stay for a long time, who knew what conspiracy was behind it, or was it really providential?

"Yes, it should be secretly incinerated immediately, and then a solemn sacrifice to the heavens will be made on a certain day." Miao Kunyao said.

Si Kou Hongda paced a few steps in place, and tied the forehead in his hand to the young man on the bed. Only then did I take a closer look at the young man's pale face, which was rare and exquisite. Five hundred years have passed, and it has been five hundred years since the three-way eye is peerless, and whether your appearance is a trick or providence, it must be over.

He beckoned and ordered, "Immediately send it secretly to the Holy Light Offering Furnace." ”

"Yes." The subordinates received the order, and they were as skilled as parcels of goods, wrapped the unconscious teenager, carried it, took it down, and secretly sent it to the sanctification furnace.

Si Kou Hongda returned to the palace and set up the sanctification furnace.

Miao Guoshi was already ready for sanctification, burning incense and chanting, and on the sanctification platform, the three-meter-long radius and larger than a room for the furnace had been burned red. Like a big sun, it emitted the heat that burned the skin.

Si Kou Hongda stood under the altar, looking up at the red-hot furnace above, more than ten meters away, but his skin was already hot.

"Chief, you're ready." Miao Kunyao wore a national teacher's uniform with holy light printed on his back, knelt on the ground, and said reverently.

Si Kou Hongda waved his hand, "Then let's start." ”

"Yes." Miao Kunyao took the order.

A group of servants dressed in sacrificial clothes respectfully carried a shelf made of flowers to the altar. The silhouette of a human figure could be faintly seen on the shelf, covered with a cloth printed in the shape of the Tree of Light.

Go to the feeding table and respectfully place the shelf on the conveyor table. Begin the lawsuit.

A dozen or so attendants below, as soon as they heard the carol, began to pull a rope. The portal table slowly ascended, towards the top of the furnace, which was as hot as the sun.

Reaching the height of the furnace, exceeding the height of the furnace, slowly rising, a distance of ten meters above the furnace, the conveyor table began to slowly move towards the middle of the furnace. Finally, it stopped in the center of the furnace. And below is the unobstructed scorching fire.

Miao Kunyao clasped his hands together and looked at the sacrifice above the furnace reverently, just waiting for his own order, he would be wiped out.

Miao Kunyao slowly opened her hands, and the attendants below looked at the national teacher nervously, waiting for her to give an order, and immediately let go of the rope in her hand.

"No! Cannot! Thou shalt not be sacrificed! Not available! An old voice stopped anxiously.

"Master?" Miao Kunyao didn't believe that Master, who had been ignoring the world for many years, why would he suddenly come out to stop it? Is it really serious enough to alarm the elderly?

The old national teacher, dressed in white, came to the leader, bowed and saluted, "Chief." ”

The leader asked, "Old National Teacher, even you are alarmed?" "The old national teacher has not asked about the world for many years. How could he suddenly stop this now, and how did he know about the three-eyed boy?

"Old man divination, this young man is here, it's providence."

"Providence?" The leader didn't understand what it meant, this curse-like evil, ordinary people can't escape, what kind of providence is it?

"Yes, and this boy will be our deed for occupying the Central Plains." The old national teacher hesitated, but decided to speak out. After all, Si Kou Guo has been driven by Haoyuan Country for so many years and has been in this bitter cold place. People's livelihood is poor and the environment is poor. Returning to the Central Plains has always been the wish of all the Sikou people in the past generations.

"Occupy the Haoyuan Kingdom and recapture the Central Plains, the deed?" Si Kohongda thought for a moment. If yes, then be willing to take that risk. "Look at the young man's appearance, but he looks like Haoyuanguo, isn't it a trick of Haoyuanguo?"

"This, put it down first, let Weichen take a closer look." The old national teacher also wants to see what this young man who has a vision in the sky and has appeared in the world for five hundred years? What's so special about it?

"Put it down." Si Kohongda waved his hand, and the attendants had no choice but to pull the rope and slowly return the sacrifice that was about to be sent into the furnace and descend the way it came.

The old national teacher walked to the shelf, lifted the cloth with his hand, and what he saw was a bloodless young man with a pale face like a dead corpse, but there was an extra third eye on his forehead.

The old national teacher trembled his hands and stretched out to the young man, I don't know if it was because of old age or nervousness. He opened the eyelid of the third eye on the boy's forehead with his hand.

The boy's third eye suddenly seemed to be alive, and it was dripping and turning. Just like the eyes of a newborn child, ignorance and ignorance are all naΓ―ve.

The old national teacher hurriedly withdrew his hand, and his eyelids covered again. Looking closely at the child's face, although it is pale and bloodless, it can be seen that the child's appearance is as delicate and special as an elf. This appearance is not as heroic and profound as the Sikou people, nor is it as delicate and soft as the Haoyuan people. The old national teacher continued to lift the veil, and when he saw the child's clothes, he was silent for a while. This costume should be from Haoyuan country, and guess it is the private clothes of the royal family of Haoyuan country. Although I am not sure, it must be a grand costume.

"Old national teacher, what should I do now?" Si Kou Hongda respectfully asked the old national teacher.

"Take it down and find someone to guard it. Kun Yao and I went to ask the Holy Light Tree to temporarily seal his three-way eye. The old national teacher pondered. Now I can only hide from the world and take one step at a time.
