In the carriage, the faceless ghost was still murmuring, "It's strange, there don't seem to be many people guarding the city gate today!" ”

I lifted the curtain a little bit, and looked outside, and there were indeed a few people standing at the gate of the city, one of whom was still napping. I couldn't help frowning, if according to what Daoist Tianqing said, today is the day when that person's energy is the weakest, then ...... The city gate should be guarded by more people, so that no one can take advantage of it!

I looked around, not only was the city gate unguarded, but even on the city wall, there was a group of people left, walking on it.

Puzzled, I lowered the curtain, and as the carriage continued to drive inside, I saw that there were few people on the road. I couldn't help it at the moment, and dragged the faceless ghost. "The last time you came, there were only a few people on the streets of the entire royal capital?"

"No! A lot of people, very prosperous ......"

"Then now this is ......" I stared and pondered, the so-called abnormal things must have demons, this place is so empty, there must be a problem! Could it be ...... Did the guy behind it already know we were in?

I was wondering what I was thinking when I suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves not far behind me. I'm particularly sensitive to this sound now. sense, almost as soon as he heard it, he immediately shrank up with Shan'er in his arms. Fortunately, the horse's hooves did not stop, and ran straight into the distance.

As soon as the distance was opened, I lifted the curtain again.

In the dust, I actually saw the back of the little nun again!

Her figure stood out in the crowd, and I watched the direction they left thoughtfully. The carriage shook suddenly, as if it had been pushed by something, and I quickly took Shan'er in my arms and protected him from being hit. When the carriage was finished, the faceless ghost hurriedly went outside to take a look.

I could hear what seemed to be a noise outside, but I couldn't quite make out what it was. I lifted the curtain a little bit and looked at it, and I could only vaguely see a man in armor standing on the side of the carriage.

After a while, the carriage moved, and the faceless man entered. "It's unlucky! Why is it today? ”

I glanced at the carriage, which had clearly changed direction, and asked suspiciously. "What's wrong?"

"What is the worship festival today, to be sacrificed, according to the rules of the royal capital, everyone must go to participate. The reason why there is no one on this street is because they went to the worship festival. Now we were walking down the road and were spotted by the city guards, who now forced us to divert and go to the cleansing platform. ”

Cleansing Table......

Isn't that where the Flame King pointed me out last time? I groaned and didn't speak, wondering what kind of worship festival it was, whether it happened to be a chance to bump into us, or ...... Someone is behind it.

After pondering for a while, the carriage had already arrived at the position of the sin washing table. There are so many people gathered here that the water around this place is impassable. After making sure that I was hiding, the faceless ghost lowered the curtain and followed the Tianqing Daoist into the crowd.

In the midst of the noisy crowd, there was a sudden silence. I looked sideways, and it was the pigtailed child sitting on top of the white tiger, and he stepped on the steps of the sin washing table with a graceful posture. With a straight back, a slightly raised chin, and a proud expression like a peacock, step by step, under the attention of everyone, he stood next to the pillar of cleansing.

Her face, red against the firelight next to her, was very moving.

As soon as she stood up, someone shouted, "Hail the Holy Maiden." ”

Immediately afterwards, all the people slowly knelt down, as if they were worshipping their most revered god, in a prostrate position...... Braid, who seemed to be greatly satisfied, said nothing, continued to keep them on their knees, and then jumped off the white tiger himself. Today's pigtails are no longer the appearance of a two-year-old girl, but she has become an adult. Glamorous as a celestial person.

After getting off the white tiger, she stood next to the sin washing pillar. Immediately, someone handed over some sacrificial things, and she did them one by one, with a clear eye and a great deal of exquisiteness.

The ceremony lasted for more than half an hour, and everyone knelt all the time for half an hour, and not a single voice of complaint came out!

And in the second half of the ceremony, the pigtails were tied up by a person, and the flowers were tied to the washing table. The person who was tied up was covered in a burlap bag, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but the burlap bag could not cover his feet. I looked at his shoes, and my head went blank as if it had crashed!

The shoes ......

Aren't they the shoes that the Flame King wears? The flying fish pattern is so familiar!

And even though this person is tied up in a burlap bag, his body has always stood very straight, and his momentum is neither humble nor arrogant, like the Killing Flame King! My heart suddenly tightened, and Shan'er lay on the curtain, and at this time she also turned her head and looked at me worriedly. "Mother...... That's Daddy, I can smell him! ”

I gritted my teeth and struggled to keep myself from rushing out.

After tying him to the washing table, the braid first poured something on him, then took several steps back, knelt down towards the washing table, and shouted. "May the power of the heavens reveal to all beings whether this person is guilty or not."

The people below, following her, so many people's voices condensed together, it is enough to regret the world.

As they chattered, suddenly the ground shook violently, and then in the dark sky, it seemed that something was turning over the clouds and mist, and something was brewing! The storm is surging, and the pressure is heavy......

Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the sky.

A thunder with a thick bowl mouth went straight to the sin washing table! My heart suffocated, as if it was being torn apart by something, and it was uncomfortably dripping blood.

It is said that ghosts are afraid of thunder, and once they are hit, they are very likely to be wiped out!

I won't forget the Zikui who flew out of the head of the blood corpse at the beginning, and at that time it was cut by lightning and never recovered, and there was not even a scum left!

How painful it must be for such a thick thunder to slash on him!

Moreover, there is more than one thunder!

Every time the wind and clouds surged, I saw a thunder fall, front and back, a total of eight thunders! I gritted my teeth, counted the thunder, and glanced at the heavenly machine. The moment the thunder strikes, it will light up this piece of sky, and at that moment, I seem to see...... What is it churning in the sea of clouds......

That shape, that posture......

It seems to be ...... Dragon?

I was shocked and hurriedly reminded Shan'er to look, Shan'er had scarlet eyes, wiped tears, looked up, and nodded, "It's indeed a dragon." ”

When I saw the dragon, I couldn't help but think of the picture behind me, Nine Dragons pulling the coffin! Seemingly...... In this day and age, there are indeed dragons. But at this time, what does the appearance of a dragon represent? I trembled, and my head was in turmoil.

And after the eight thunderbolts were completed, the sky was a little quieter. After bowing respectfully three times, the pigtail shouted. "Heaven was unwilling to forgive him, and eight thunders were executed......"

As soon as she said this, there was finally a whisper below, and I desperately turned my ear to the side, but I didn't hear it clearly. It's Shan'er, who heard it clearly, and his face turned pale. I looked anxious and hurriedly asked. "What are they talking about?"

Shan'er grabbed my clothes, and her little hands kept shaking. "Mother, they say that the eight thunders are capital punishment...... It's to trap my father on it for seven days and forty-nine days, and he will be struck by lightning eight times a day......"

Trapped for forty-nine days, and still being split eight times a day!

Even if it's a god, I can't stand it! I heard it with a split of my heart and guts, and my back molars were all crushed by me.

At this point, the ceremony is almost over. The pigtail asked him to tie him up a little tighter, and then left a team of men and horses to guard it, and he stepped on the white tiger to go. It's just that when she left, she deliberately walked around to him, as if she was saying something. Shan'er said that the voice was blocked, and he couldn't hear it, but when I saw the smile on Braid'er's face, I couldn't help but feel excited.

Certainly not a good word!

Sure enough, as soon as the pigtail finished speaking, he went crazy, as if he struggled frantically, the pigtail ignored it at all, pulled the corners of his lips slightly, and got off the sin washing table with a proud posture.

As soon as she left, the ritual was complete. The people also stood up and planned to withdraw. But someone was restless, took out rotten eggs from the basket and threw them at him on the washing table. When one person started to do it, the rest of the people were also restless and kept to themselves, and took out all kinds of rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves and threw them over......

At that time, the pigtails didn't go far!

When she saw this, she sneered. Laughter stuck in my heart like a knife!
