Chapter 6 Opening
Chapter 6 Opening
Thick clouds covered the sky of Atum City, dampening people's enthusiasm for navigating the streets.
The whole city was silent, and the wind was aimlessly pacing over the rough roads, rustling the leaves rolling up.
On this day, there were no fewer pedestrians on the streets, but they were surprisingly quiet, and some people even just stood on the side of the road, without saying a word, looking up at the sky, as if waiting for something.
On this day every year, Atum City becomes like this, and people seem to be very tacitly unanimous, but this is not a routine exercise. And as for why people are like this, everyone has an answer in their hearts.
Ancestral Tomb Festival.
It is an annual sacrament in the city of Atum, like a faith, more like a pilgrimage. On this day, the prohibition of the Lost Ancestral Tomb in the middle of Atum City will be lifted by itself, and those people can freely enter and leave the Lost Ancestral Tomb on this day every year, visit the miracles, and feel the holy might.
At the same time, this is also the day of the year, the carp jumping over the dragon gate.
Those twelve-year-old children will come to Atum City on this day to worship the eleven Xuantu, and the lucky ones will be favored by Xuantu and given runes. This opportunity is extremely rare, everyone only has this one chance, once missed, there is no second time.
Therefore, every year before and after the ancestral tomb festival, there will be many families with children over the age of 12 who bring their children to seek opportunities and flock to them. But those who can really be chosen are all rare.
It is said that the probability of success of this worship also has a lot to do with the individual, such as qualifications, bloodline, etc. For example, if the elder in the family is a rune master, then this child will have a much greater chance of being chosen by Xuantu than others, and it is very likely that he will descend a rune from the same Xuantu as his elder, or even the same as his elders.
Therefore, there are also various families, religions, and organizations on the Sunset Sandbar, and they also have a pivotal position on the Sunset Sandbar.
Like the Hou Yan family, the Bi family, the Confucian Su Sect, the Great Federation, etc., are all famous people in the Sunset Sandbank, and even the supreme ruler of the Sunset Sandbank, Pharaoh, has to give them full face.
In short, in the Sunset Sandbank, if you have enough power, you have the power to dominate everything. And power, which can be used to praise heroes, can also make countless people crazy......
"Ah......h He looked around and saw that no one had ---- grandfather and the girl had already gotten up, and he realized how deeply he had slept last night.
Yesterday's experience made him feel exhausted, so as soon as he returned to the inn, he fell asleep on the bed, even if the girl was beside him, he didn't wake up.
Mo Xuan moved his arms, and a crackling sound eased his muscle soreness caused by too much sleep. And this soreness, in the sunset sandbar, is considered to be a toxin secreted by the body, which will erode the human body, and those who die, not because of the condition of their own lifespan, but because of the accumulation of too many toxins in the body, causing the body to collapse.
Just then, the door to the room was opened. Mo Xuan followed the prestige and happened to see the snow-white and lovely girl.
"Ah, Brother Mo Xuan, you're awake. The girl smiled in surprise. "Hmm. Mo Xuan smiled at the girl and nodded. "Hurry up, Brother Mo Xuan, grandpa asked me to urge you to get up, he said that the Lost Ancestral Tomb is about to open. ”
The girl is only eleven years old, but she has already revealed the outline of a beautiful woman. So for teenagers at the same stage, girls are very attractive. But maybe it's because they've been together for a long time, Mo Xuan doesn't seem to have any feelings for the girl, and the girl is always angry with Mo Xuan because of this, and every time she makes Mo Xuan confused.
"Brother Mo Xuan, come on, fight for it, no, you must become a rune master!" looked at Mo Xuan who was dressed on the bed, and the girl said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll definitely become a rune master. Mo Xuan's heart warmed, and he replied with a smile at the girl, "You too, you have to work hard next year to become a rune master." ”
"I'm still early, not in a hurry. The girl smiled and said, "But next year, I will definitely become a rune master!" The girl's words were full of confidence.
"Yo, girl, so confident. Mo Xuan said.
"Well, I'm always lucky. The girl straightened her small chest and said.
"Then you can lend me your good luck, and bless me with which Xuantu can be favored later. ”
"Okay, take it, you're welcome. The girl said cheerfully. However, in the next moment, she felt a pair of powerful arms hugging her soft shoulders, and suddenly, the girl's face turned red, and she said incoherently: "Mo, Brother Moxuan, what are you doing here?"
"Borrow your good luck, shouldn't you hug it to borrow it?" Mo Xuan said bluntly. Hearing this, the girl couldn't laugh or cry. Until Mo Xuan let go of her, her face was still crimson, Mo Xuan was also startled when she saw it, and hurriedly asked, "Girl, what's wrong with you? Did I hurt you too hard just now?"
"You go farther!" the girl glanced at Mo Xuan angrily, forced a smile, pushed him out, and said while pushing: "You go down to eat first, grandpa is waiting for you below!"
"Oh, oh" until he was pushed out of the door, Mo Xuan kept repeating this word, and as soon as Mo Xuan left the room, the door was suddenly closed by the girl. Outside the door, Mo Xuan looked at the door of the room and shouted inside, "Girl, what should you do?"
"I've eaten it!" the girl's voice passed through the door, and her tone was unpleasant. Mo Xuan stood at the door and scratched her head for some reason, and said to herself: "What's wrong with the girl? Did I just provoke her? Maybe I hurt her." Alas, I'll apologize to her later. As he spoke, Mo Xuan shook his head and walked down.
On the other side of the door, the girl leaned lightly against the door, her face was still crimson, and she put her hand on her left chest, where she was now fluttering and jumping. She thought to herself, "Brother Mo Xuan actually hugged me just now, it's really ...... It scared me. But...... It seems to be very good, which means that she has me in her heart, just ...... Hmph, let's just take advantage of me once. Thinking like this, the corners of the girl's mouth hooked up a light smile.
Coming down from upstairs, Mo Xuan happened to see his grandfather sitting at a table facing him, and at the same time, his grandfather also saw Mo Xuan, and smiled at Mo Xuan and said, "Mo Xuan, come here, here!"
Sitting down, Mo Xuan smiled at his grandfather, looked at the breakfast on the table, he grabbed a bun and devoured it.
"Hehe, don't rush, eat slowly. Did you sleep okay last night?" Grandpa said as he looked at Mo Xuan. Mo Xuan didn't look up, swallowed the bun in his mouth, and nodded whining. Taking advantage of the situation, he picked up another bowl of soy milk in front of him and drank it with a slurp.
"Wow, comfortable. Mo Xuan patted his stomach with satisfaction and sighed.
"Well, that's it, the momentum of the soldiers will not change. Grandpa nodded and said.
Mo Xuan looked at his grandfather and was about to say something, when suddenly, the ground trembled violently, shaking Mo Xuan and almost fell.
"What's going on?" Mo Xuan said nervously.
Grandpa looked outside the inn, the clouds in the sky were extremely thick, showing a unique colorful light, and the sky in the distance, there seemed to be a transparent film that was particularly clear under the illumination of the colorful light, and slowly faded. A bell rang from far and near, seemingly far away, but it seemed to strike on everyone's ears. There was a faint sound of thunder, and at this moment, the film in the distance was completely gone. With the fading of that film, a quaint and dignified atmosphere scattered in every corner of Atum City. The whole world seemed to have an extra layer of frost scabs, and the temperature dropped suddenly. On the street, many people were staring in that direction at this moment, kneeling on their knees, hands on their chests, and worshipping reverently. This moment, for them, is faith.
At this moment, a sentence appeared in everyone's heart......
The Lost Ancestral Tomb has been opened.
Today's first shift, there are two more.
