Chapter 1058: Xia Guo I

The world of the talisman is naturally very large. Ω pen Δ Fun Pavilion. But the area where the stinger haunts is not far from this place. It's entirely possible that it haunts this place.

"Just settle accounts with it." Yao's sinister laughter sounded in Li You's heart. This made Li You feel a chill in his heart. Yao's pregnancy doesn't seem to be easy to follow, this guy is just as eager to repay, and he can't be easily offended.

Li You did not continue to ask questions on this issue. Yao decided to go to the stinging nephew for trouble, and he had no other plan than to agree. However, for such a thing, there is no need to greet Hei Gu at all, as long as he keeps up with Hei Gu and his party from a distance, it is enough.

What Li You is most concerned about is the origin of the founding monarch of the Xia Kingdom. Soon he turned the question to the historical aspect.

"The name of the first king is indeed a ......" Hearing Li You call the name of the ancestor of the Xia Kingdom, the temples on both sides of Heigu bulged. He wasn't angry, he was afraid. This means that Li You doesn't have much awe for the Xia royal family, such a strong man is quite terrifying.

"I have to think of a way to scare this group of lawless guys......" Heigu also thought secretly in his heart. He began to think about Xia Guo's safety in his heart. Once four such powerful guys were born, he couldn't imagine how much of a storm it would set off. But he knew that in the entire Xia Kingdom, it was estimated that he would not be able to find a strong man who could match them.

Li You was patient and listened to Hei Gu tell the history of the royal family.

Before the rise of the Xia Kingdom, the Xia Clan was just a moderately powerful tribe in this world. And suddenly one day, a huge fireball fell from the sky. After the fire cleared, the Crawler appeared. Therefore, he was accepted by the Xia people as a god. Not only that, but the mysterious brilliance of the Crawler also won him the worship of other tribes, so for a while, his subordinates quickly gathered a lot of strength.

In the following decades, he took these tribes who followed him to forge ahead in this world, conquering one tribe after another, expelling many wise alien races from the plain world, and establishing pass cities in dangerous places, stationing armies, building defensive fronts, and widely sealing the tribes that followed him as kingdoms and dividing princes.

And the vassal states also followed the example of the Emperor, leading their armies to open up the wilderness, and the territory of the Xia Kingdom continued to advance towards unknown areas.

He reigned for eighty-one years. In the past eighty-one years, the territory of the Xia Kingdom was also the largest in history, and the other intelligent races, under the strength of the Xu, had no place to stay, and they fled to areas with extremely harsh living environments, and did not dare to cross the area demarcated by the Xuqi for half a step.

He left behind brilliant achievements, but also left a lot of messes for the royal family. He left more than a dozen contracts with the gods of this world, so sacrifice became the heaviest burden for the royal family and the entire Xia Kingdom.

Of course, sacrifice and harvest are originally equivalent, and the royal family has always maintained a strong state of power through sacrifices.

Even after seeing the benefits of royal sacrifice, many vassal states were ready to move, secretly sending strong people into the secret realm of the mountains to find possible gods, trying to get in touch with them, obtain the power of protection, and make themselves stronger.

In the face of this kind of behavior, the royal family does not allow it, but also explicitly prohibits it. But this kind of thing, no matter how many times he reprimands, could not make the princes give up the behavior that could make their power stronger.

"You can go."

After Li You inquired about the situation of Xia Guo again, and after confirming that he couldn't ask anything more from Hei Gu's mouth, Li You signaled that Hei Gu could get out. Because the royal family has always remained strong, and the princes under his rule are relatively stable, except that the alien race is more powerful than in the past and the threat to the border is more serious, there is no other fresh content, which is not much different from what Xia Ke said before.

Black Guru was granted amnesty. Get up from the ground and go out. Shak, on the other hand, had a sad face, his mouth slightly open, as if he wanted to say something, but he still didn't say it.

"You don't want to leave him down for a meal before leaving, do you?"

Chiyou pinched his hands and quipped at Shak.

"I didn't ...... There is no ......," Shack laughed hard. He really wanted to say that before. Of course, the motive is not as simple as simply keeping guests for dinner, but wanting to clear up the misunderstanding with Heigu. If it weren't for Li You and his party, if Hei Gu asked him for the Qinglin Beast, he would only have to sacrifice it. Xia Ke didn't have the courage to go against the government or even the royal envoys.

Li You and the others naturally did not stay and wait for a meal, and after Hei Gu and his party left, they left the village and followed from a distance.

Within a few miles, Li You found a dead body on the side of the road. The head of the corpse was slapped to pieces, but judging from the body shape, the deceased was probably Wei Hong in Xia Ke's mouth. This person told Hei Gu, but he sent Hei Gu to Li You, losing a lot of face. How did Heigu allow him to live in peace, and vented his anger on him.

"This guy is unlucky......"

Li You looked at the corpse on the ground and sighed. But he also felt that this guy was seeking his own death, and he couldn't blame others.

The number of sacrificial processions led by Heigu was not small. In addition to the thirty janissaries, there were two hundred boys and girls, plus some slaves who were escorting the sacrifices. The total number is around three hundred. In addition to Heigu, there are two second-rate masters among the guards, and the rest are at the level of third- and fourth-rate. In Li You's eyes, it is naturally not a force, but in a small world, there is such a force in a team, and it is enough to see that the national strength of Xia Kingdom is strong.

Li You and the others followed three miles behind the Black Gu team. With the ability of the four of them, Hei Gu naturally couldn't show their existence.

Soon after, the edge of the forest appeared in front of everyone. And Heigu has already made people camp. At the same time, slaves were being driven to build altars.

The altar is very simple, just a few stones are simply built, piled up with earth, and after stepping on it, another layer of stones is added, and the altar is completed.

From the simplicity of the altar, it can be seen that the ritual of this sacrifice is not actually important, but the sacrifice itself.

"Do you feel the scent of a sting?" Li You asked Yao about her pregnancy.

Yaoyu shook her head. She has a much better sense of stinging than the others.

"It is estimated that the time for the sacrifice has not yet arrived." Yao Yu said.

Indeed, the boys and girls who were sacrificed were placed in captivity by the guards, and there was no intention of putting them on the altar immediately.

"The stinging nephew was also injured, so he may not be able to show up here on time." Linglong added.

"No, it should come on time." Yao Yu thought for a moment and said, "The sting nephew is injured, it urgently needs energy to repair its body, and hunting in the Lost Forest is too dangerous, and its target must be sacrifice." ”

"Yes, that's what I thought." Chiyou said.
