Chapter 69: Rituals

"Ahh

A big swarthy man in front of the door, who was beating the door excitedly, suddenly let out a scream, and slowly sat down on the ground, and a long arrow pierced through his right chest and out of his back. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

A drop of blood, dripping from the tip of the cold-glittering arrow.

The crowd suddenly fell silent and looked at the man in horror.

"Daddy!" cried out the two sons of the man who was hit by the arrow, and hurried to treat him.

"Those who trespass on the White Jade Tower, die!" A cold and majestic voice came from the White Jade Tower, rumbling and echoing in the bluestone square.

The crowd of worshippers on the bluestone square all looked up in surprise and looked at the white jade building.

On the side of the railing of the ninth floor of the tall white jade building, there was a figure holding a longbow;

"Xue'er, what should I do?" Wu Que asked in a low voice.

Zhang Xuezhu glanced up at the person at the railing of the nine-story white jade building, shook his head slightly at Wu Que, and turned around and walked towards the bluestone square.

Wu Que followed Zhang Xuezhu to the square and discussed countermeasures in a whisper.

Zhang Xuezhu told Wu Que that the person who shot arrows on the ninth floor of Baiyulou just now had an extremely high cultivation, and he was not under her, so he couldn't break in.

As a result of their discussion, they finally decided to stay in Bluestone Square and wait and see what happened.

Other people who wanted to pay black money to enter the White Jade Tower to worship also had the same thoughts as Wu Que and the others, and waited quietly in the square for the White Jade Tower to reopen three days later.

On the huge bluestone square, in addition to the people who worship sincerely, there are also many various businesses, whether it is day or night, the whole square is full of people gathering like ants all the time, and there is no moment of stopping.

Time passed quickly, and it was the third day in the blink of an eye, the sun had not yet risen, and the early morning breeze carried a slight chill.

"Oh woo!" a loud horn suddenly came from the far end of the square, and people were startled and turned their heads to look.

Wu Que and Zhang Xuezhu opened their eyes and found a team of people walking from the far end of the carved avenue leading to the white jade building in the square.

People looked at the majestic procession slowly moving forward and began to talk about it.

The procession gradually approached the White Jade Tower, and at the front of the line was a tall and thin man wearing a blood-colored mask riding a white tiger on the plains, and behind the tall and thin man were two rows of white tiger knights holding large iron rods.

Escorted by two rows of white tiger knights, were two Miaoman women riding elk and wearing light veils.

Wu Que saw the two women riding elks at a glance, and immediately opened his mouth in surprise.

Zhang Xuezhu glanced at Wu Que, who was sitting beside him, gently poked him with his elbow, and said: "Last time, after our bride and groom entered the cave room, one was timid and the other ran away; ”

Wu Que suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and said in a low voice: "The bride you are looking for is too disobedient and likes to run away, if you run away again this time, you will have to compensate the groom for his losses." ”

"If you run away again, I will compensate you for one, I don't believe that I can't cave this room! I'm afraid, my groom still doesn't have the guts!" Zhang Xuezhu squinted at Wu Que, his tone full of contempt.

Wu Que pursed his lips and said, "The one who loses has to be more beautiful than this one, ugly, I don't want it!"

Zhang Xue said softly: "Cut, the kid's requirements are quite high." Something more beautiful than this, where to find it?"

Wu Que looked at Zhang Xuezhu and said seriously: "Beautiful, aren't you all around?"

Zhang Xue was stunned for a moment, and pretended to turn his head to look: "Where is it? Why didn't I see it?"

Wu Que then said: "But it's not enough to be beautiful, you have to be good-tempered, gentle, and don't beat people......"

Zhang Xue's eyes were stammered, and her eyes were as warm as spring, and in an instant, they turned into awe-inspiring ice blades.

......

As the team on the carved avenue approached Wu Que's side, the discussion around them was already buzzing.

"The Holy King who guards the temple personally accompanied the holy woman to the temple, is the legend that the temple is about to open true?" someone whispered.

"The Holy Lord failed in the first two bone sacrifice ceremonies, and before this ceremony, he specially sent the Holy Maiden here, most likely to open the temple and pray for his ceremony. From this inference, it is indeed very possible for the temple to be reopened!" the other person deduced that the Tao was the first to go, and he was uncontrollable with excitement.

......

Wu Que was surprised and puzzled when he heard these discussions around him, and said softly: "It turns out that she is a saint! Xue'er, did you already know that she was a saint of the Holy City?"

Zhang Xue looked intently at Qianyu riding an elk on the carved avenue, paused, and replied softly: "Except for the purest saint in the world, who else is qualified to open the temple and pray for the holy lord?"

Between Zhang Xue's words, it was difficult to hide a faint jealousy.

It turned out that only the purest saint was qualified to open the temple and pray for the blessing of the holy lord! Wu Que's heart moved: she went to great lengths to let Qianyu and herself cave room, could it be to sabotage the saint's plan to open the temple this time?

Qianyu, who had been passing in front of them and had been staring unsquintingly, suddenly turned his head to look at them.

Wu Que suddenly saw Qianyu looking at him, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he subconsciously lowered his head, only to remember that he was still wearing a mask on his face.

Qianyu's gaze swept over the unfamiliar faces of Wu Que and Zhang Xuezhu, and then turned his head and continued to move forward, thinking: Why are the voices of those two people so familiar just now, where have you seen them?

"Squeak--" The guard on the first floor of the White Jade Building pushed open the heavy jade door.

The Saint King of the Temple, wearing a blood-colored mask, turned around and waved at the White Tiger Guards behind him, and the guards all stopped.

The Holy King of the Temple took Qianyu and Xiaomei and walked into the White Jade Tower.

The doors of each floor of the floor opened one after another, and the three of them continued to go up the spiral steps of the White Jade Building.

The whole white jade building, except for the first floor is surrounded by a stone wall, you can't see the situation inside, and the upper floors are only half a waist high fence;

Soon, the bluestone square in front of the White Jade Tower was crowded with people, and everyone raised their heads, their eyes following the rising figure of Qianyu in the White Jade Tower.

The three of them finally went up to the 9th floor of the White Jade Tower, and the figure holding a longbow on the 9th floor saluted them respectfully and stood beside them.

Wu Que saw Qianyu turn his head and say something to the Holy King of the Temple and Xiaomei, and then suddenly jumped up from the back of the elk.

Like a flying butterfly, Qianyu landed on the tallest small semi-dome of the nine-story white jade building, and then faced east, sat down cross-legged, and waited quietly.

The entire bluestone square was full of black people with their heads up, and they were silent.

Everyone, all waiting.

A glimmer of light erupted from the eastern horizon, and in an instant, it had swept over the ancient and desolate land.

The sun has finally risen!

Facing the rising sun, Qianyu stood up and gently removed the veil from his face.

Separated by a 9-storey building, although everyone on the bluestone square can't see the real face, but her holy and wonderful figure that radiates a misty light under the sun has been deeply imprinted in everyone's minds in an instant, and can no longer be forgotten.

After Qianyu took off the veil, he seemed to take out another thing from his arms, and the blue light flashed.

What is that, why is it a little familiar? Wu Que opened his eyes wide, wanting to see clearly what Qianyu was holding in his hand.

Qianyu turned around, facing the white jade cliff, and slowly knelt on the jade steps of the half-dome close to the cliff, her hands raised above the top, and the mysterious blue light kept flashing in her raised hands.

What was she holding in her hand? Everyone's eyes were attracted by the blue light in Qianyu's hand.

"Great Yuangu Heroic God, your light, like the rising sun, will always warm this continent generously. As your devout followers who have sworn to protect this continent for you, you have finally found your lost token, the Ancient Key. I beseech the great gods of the ancient world, to open your temple once again, so that we can go one step further and feel your majestic and boundless supernatural powers and vast and supreme compassion. Qianyu prayed softly.

Although the prayer voice was soft, Wu Que could hear it clearly.

He and Zhang Xue looked at each other, their eyes full of absurdity and surprise: what Qianyu was holding in his hand at the moment was the blue star that Wu Que used to pretend to be the ancient key qin before.

After praying for a thousand words, he pasted the "ancient key" held high in his hand on the huge jade cliff.

However, how could a sapphire blue star pretending to be an ancient key qin allow the temple to open?

"Boom!" suddenly there was a muffled sound in the sky, and the earth shook slightly!
