Chapter 381: Maintaining public image is everyone's responsibility

The Sacrificial Square is the largest square in the Natural Forest and is a venue for the invocation of the sacred tree and the transmission of the high priest, as well as the offering of sacrifices to the sacred tree and Mother Nature. The biggest difference between it and other squares is that the altar in front of it is so wide that it occupies more than half of the entire square area, and this platform alone is enough to accommodate the entire family of the Natural Forest.

Directly in front of the altar is the thickest trunk of the sacred tree. Because it is too thick, it looks more like a wall with the shape of tree bark. Underneath the main trunk is a stump, which is now filled with grains and greens, as well as fresh fruits and vegetables such as newly grown sweet potatoes, grapes, sugar cane, and peppers. The roses and the newly planted gardenias of Gangu rain are red and white, and they are surrounded by a full circle along the edge of the stump, which is fragrant and greasy.

If Gangu Rain is here, he will definitely remember that he came through and woke up on this stump.

At this time, the altar was already full of dignitaries who had come to watch the ceremony. In fact, before today, this place had never welcomed the arrival of the Unnatural Forest people. Everyone was whispering, talking about everything around the sacrificial square, and Lucas's cannon-like voice was particularly prominent, until Yin Yimo glared at him several times before it relented.

Ethan IV, who was at the front of the crowd, did not speak to anyone, and closed his eyes to himself. Severensa, on the other hand, stared straight at somewhere above the trunk of the sacred tree, and did not speak.

At this moment, a crisp bird's cry came from above everyone's heads, which shocked everyone's spirits and involuntarily stopped talking. The melodious sound of music followed, coming from all directions, soft and tactful, like fairy sounds. Many people couldn't help but close their eyes, and in their perception, the soothing sound of the music seemed to materialize. Wave after wave washed away their exhaustion and impetuousness.

For most people, this music can be described as the ultimate enjoyment for them, and Kim Zeren's face unconsciously showed a comfortable look. With the strength of Ethan IV and Severence and others, it was impossible to get lost in this endless music, but they nodded slightly in appreciation. This simple instrument made from sacred leaves produces music that cannot be heard anywhere else.

However, Tang Jie bit the tip of his tongue at the first time. Qiang Zi came to his senses, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his face was faintly pale. Tang Zhong also had to pretend to be hearing, shaking his head and smiling bitterly. Tang Jie has been accompanied by murderous intent since he was a child, and he is extremely unsuitable for this kind of music that calms people's hearts. And Tang Chong's strength is mostly derived from stimulating his own anger and making angry moves, so he will break into the name of the fiery magic master. If you listen to too much music like this, it will also affect the play of strength.

After a song, the people who were immersed in it gradually came to their senses. Everyone was secretly frightened. If someone had attacked him just now, I'm afraid he would have already succeeded.

A few people such as Ethan IV and Severence have already seen the signs. This music is able to do this, in fact, the performer takes advantage of the location, relying on the branches and leaves of the sacred tree to refract the sound waves. If you leave the sacred tree, I'm afraid it's just a pleasant tune.

"Quiet?" the High Priest opened his eyes and looked at Gangu Rain kindly.

Gangu Yu exhaled a breath of turbid air and nodded: "It is worthy of Elder Si Le, just this song." It can be called an invincible opponent under the same rank. ”

"How can you say so mysteriously, she is just an invincible opponent in the sacred tree. The High Priest smiled. "Now, we can do what we want, right?"

Gangu Yu nodded: "There is High Priest Lao." ”

The high priest waved his hand at him, and then he walked out of the hollow of the tree and came to the people in the sacrificial square to greet the guests. Naturally, this process was added this year, and the High Priest was concise and to the point. After expressing his welcome and gratitude to everyone for their arrival, he immediately announced the official start of the Sacred Tree Summoning Ceremony.

There have been various versions of the Sacred Tree Summoning of the Natural Forest on the mainland, but since no one has seen it with their own eyes, the mages of the Nature Department will not tell others about it at will. Therefore, even West Florence did not know what the Sacred Tree Summoning was all about before this.

So, when the High Priest announced the beginning of the ceremony of summoning the sacred tree, the curious spectators focused their attention on the altar.

The soft music played by the Elder Musician sounded again, but this time it was pure background music and had no special effect, but the music alone enchanted everyone. Ninety-eight beauties in straw skirts lined up in two phalanxes, walked slowly and solemnly from both ends of the altar, and after standing on the platform, they all knelt down facing the main trunk of the sacred tree.

Then, the music suddenly changed and became solemn. The sky above the entire sacrificial square is also full of blue brilliance, like a green heavenly river flowing above everyone's heads. The few knowledgeable people in the crowd naturally knew that this was a light and shadow effect constructed using natural elements, while many more stared intently at the scenery in the sky, and were amazed by the vision.

At the same time, Gangu Yu walked slowly with the support of Elder Si Li.

Although Gangu Yu has a faint momentum that is not weaker than the elders in the natural forest, and his importance to the natural forest is self-evident, he does not have the position of elder after all. The name of the so-called Son of Nature is nothing more than a title made up by the missionary elders for the purpose of spreading the doctrine and complimenting Gangu Yu. Therefore, on weekdays, Gangu Yu does not deserve such courtesy from Elder Si Li.

But in today's ceremony, Gangu Rain is the only one who will communicate with Mother Nature and pray for the summoning of the sacred tree, and at this moment can even enjoy the treatment of the high priest. And the clansmen who have presided over the summoning of the sacred tree over the years have also been supported by the celebrant to walk up to the sacrificial platform like this, representing the recognition of their qualifications to preside over the summoning of the sacred tree.

Yin Yimo looked at Gan Guyu with a solemn expression, first stunned, and then laughed secretly in her heart. His crisp light green military uniform is just that, although the color of the uniform is a little strange, but after all, it is the sacred tree summoning ceremony of the natural forest, and it is not difficult to understand. But......

"Strange. Severence muttered directly, "This kid seems to have grown taller overnight?"

Yin Yimo immediately secretly pulled his gray robe, with a look of complaint in his eyes. Severence also lost her words and shut her mouth stupidly. Among the people watching the ceremony, people who didn't have much contact with Gan Guyu naturally didn't notice this detail, but how could Yin Yimo not notice this? After thinking about it for a while, she thought of something, and looked back at Qiu Dalin, who was looking at her nose and nose.

Yes, there was no one in the room who knew the reason better than him. Because the boots that are raised inwardly are specially made for Gangu Yu at his behest (To be continued.) )
