Seven beings go to the temple to pray for blessings, but they do not live in the temple.

In addition to the statues of the gods, there were only a few small houses for the full-time worship of the faithful and priests.

The residence of the royal family is located in the prayer house about an hour away from the shrine.

The yard is not big, simple and elegant.

The number of servants and maidservants was well controlled.

This is also the place where the seven lives rejoice, there are not so many idle people and so on.

Clean!

On that day, the gunpowder was detonated, and the sound of thunder was heard.

There was a sound here, but most people thought it was thunder.

It's just that the weather was sunny and windless that day, and I just felt that the thunder was a little strange, but I didn't think too much about it.

After successfully detonating the gunpowder, Qisheng has been in a very good mood these days.

Seeing what the medicine girl was sewing with her head down, she walked over to take a look.

I found that she seemed to be sewing a purse.

It's just that the colors and patterns look like men's.

Qisheng smiled heartily, and snatched the purse with his hand.

"Who did you sew it for?" Qisheng said with a smile.

"Give it back!"

The medicine girl snatched the purse, turned red, and hid behind her.

"For Tula?"

No need to guess who she is.

Most of the people in the Society for Salvation are stout rough men.

is the same age as the medicine girl, and the appearance is passable, only Tula.

The medicine girl didn't speak, pursed her lips, and lowered her head.

Subconsciously touched his injured cheek, his eyes dimmed.

"Actually...... Medicine girl, if you agree, I can help you repair the wound on your face. "Seven Lives.

Although Tula had warned that if he carried her blood on his back again, he would knock them out of the Society.

But the medicine girl is proficient in pharmacology, as long as the two of them are tight-lipped, it is said that it is the effect of Muyan ointment, and Tula has nothing to do with them.

The Medicine Girl looked at Qisheng in surprise.

I really didn't expect that Qisheng would be so bold.

She had just been reprimanded by Master Tula a few days ago, and she dared to mention blood collection again after only a few days.

"Seven lives, Lord Tula saved my life, and he is the most important person in this world. Don't say it's my appearance, even if it's my life, if Lord Tula wants it, I will never hesitate. I had no way of fooling him, and I didn't want to do anything against his will. ”

The medicine girl's eyes were firm.

Qisheng looked up at the medicine girl, and his heart was shocked.

The most important person?!

More important than her looks and her life?

"Do you like him?" Qisheng asked.

The medicine girl lowered her head, and her face was flushed.

Holding the purse tightly in his hand, he thought for a moment, and his eyes moved slightly.

"I just want to be loyal to the Society for Salvation for the rest of my life, and serve by Lord Tula's side for the rest of my life, so that's it. ”

As far as she is concerned, she has long been disqualified from who she likes.

She likes him, or the girls in the Society for the Salvation of Independence, and who doesn't like Master Tula?

It's just that a girl who has been an official prostitute......

Both the body and the mind are dirty!

They are self-aware, and they do not want to let Master Tula be criticized for this.

Seeing that the goddess of medicine was gloomy, Qisheng probably guessed why she was like this.

Since I came to pray for blessings, I was going to the temple for a show.

Just went to the temple once, so that Qisheng more deeply realized the malice of this world towards the unicorn.

Dongchen is one of the most harsh countries in punishing one-horns.

And what is even more vicious than Dongchen Kingdom is the gods they believe in.

This is especially true in the temple.

When they arrived at the foot of the temple mountain, Dongxiang, Ying Tao, and the Medicine Girl stopped.

Said they were inconvenient to go up.

Qisheng asked the reason, and only then did he know that the unicorn was not allowed to enter the temple to pray for blessings.

They can only worship outside the temple gates, in a special area that has been fenced.

It's called the "Unclean Zone".

Qisheng frowned, just hearing the name was full of deep malice.

So she let Dongxiang lead the way, she wanted to see how unclean the "unclean area" was?

Several people went up the mountain together, and Dongxiang talked about the "rules" of the temple as she walked.

In order to completely isolate the unicorns, the temple often has two completely different routes up the mountain.

In order to pray for blessings, the horn must enter the mountain at 10 noon and completely withdraw before the sun shines obliquely.

"Why?" Qisheng asked.

"The horn is considered unclean, filthy and untouchable. The two routes up the mountain are to completely isolate the unicorn from the good people, so as not to be contaminated with the bad luck of the unicorn. Go up the mountain at noon, because the sun is direct at noon, the shadow of the unicorn is the smallest when it falls on the ground, and when the sun shines obliquely, the shadow of the unicorn will fall on the surrounding grass and trees, bringing bad luck to the place. ”

Dongxiang said, but all temples are the same for unicorns.

"What kind of bullshit rule is this, even the shadow of them?"

Qisheng couldn't help but be rude.

When he arrived at the unclean area, he found that this place was completely isolated from the temple.

and the temple, separated by a mountain.

Only a temporary canopy was erected.

Looking in the direction of the temple from afar, they worshipped.

But even so, there is an endless stream of unicorns who come to worship.

It is only because this Beishan Temple is the most effective, so many unicorns are dragged to the family to come here.

They brought the best tribute.

Grain, fruits, flowers, etc., are placed on the altar.

From afar, Nanashi saw a skinny one-horned little girl and her mother come to worship.

She was dragged by her mother and waited in line for a long time.

When it was their turn, the mother quickly took the offerings out of the basket and knelt on the ground in prayer.

Although the little girl with a yellow face and thin muscles also knelt together, she looked up at the tribute on the altar from time to time, and swallowed her saliva with hunger.

Qisheng shook his head, these one-horned people mostly worked in the mansions of nobles and squires.

These tributes were definitely a huge expense for them, most likely a few days' rations for their family.

But they would rather put their hopes in the gods of nothingness and let them rot and spoil on the altar than feed their children.

As he descended the mountain, Nanasheng noticed that almost every unicorn carried a broom with him.

Sweep the floor and step back at the same time.

"What kind of ritual is this?"

Qisheng didn't quite understand.

"Because of uncleanliness and bad luck, each unicorn carries a broom with him, and when he comes down from the mountain after worshipping the gods, he sweeps the path he has walked and retreats until he completely exits, leaving no trace. Ying Tao said.

When she was an official prostitute, she also went to the temple with several sisters, so she still understood the general rules.

Qisheng looked helplessly and resentfully at the unicorns who were sweeping the floor and retreating, and really wanted to replace all the brooms in their hands with swords.

They attacked it and demolished the temple.

After worshipping the gods in the unclean area, they go to the river at the foot of the temple hill and drink the water to purify their bodies and minds.

Receive the blessings of the gods.

The upper reaches of the river were taken by the nobles and priests.

The midstream is taken by the good people.

Downstream it is used to feed grazing cattle and sheep.

And the bottom is where the unicorn can get water.

Cattle and sheep drink water, step their hooves into the river, and even excrete manure around them.

When it reaches the lower end, the river is muddy.

Even so, the unicorns lie on the side of the river without any scruples, praying sincerely and using their hands.

Seeing this, Qisheng could no longer hide the anger in his heart.

Both fists clenched and creaked.

I really can't understand why the unicorn worships such a god.

The gods see them as unclean, doomers.

The gods regarded them as half-man, half-beasts, and even livestock had a higher status than them.

The gods are so vicious and vicious to them that they are not even seen as their shadows......

Such a god, why do they have to come thousands of miles to worship?

It's just practicing yourself!

"The gods are the last faith in their hearts, and the atonement is their only spiritual consolation, and they pin their last hope on the gods, hoping to be sheltered and liberated!"

The medicine girl looked at the one-horns who were crawling by the river to get water, and said sadly and helplessly.

Even if there really are gods in this world, how can a god who is full of malice towards a single horn bless them. ”

Seven beings were furious.
