Chapter 2: Ancestors
On the white jade lotus platform, there are ten grooves of different sizes and shapes, gossip type, sword tower type, auspicious cloud type, needle box type, bead type, cage type, box type...... The nine lotus petals have a total of nine sides, one on each side, plus the long bridge-shaped groove in the middle of the lotus platform, a total of ten, and there is a white jade palm print in front of each groove.
"Of the ten blood troughs on the White Lotus Terrace, nine of them are already full of blood, and the remaining tenth is almost full, all of which are the blood of my merchant's ancestors and my father. The lotus platform, which covers an area of dozens of square meters, has to be filled with blood to fill the ten blood troughs that occupy almost half of the area of the lotus platform, and the sacrifice can be imagined. ”
Shang Tianji stood on the side of the lotus platform, and saw that on the lotus platform, except for the most central long bridge-shaped groove that was not filled with blood, the other nine were already filled, thinking of the price paid by his merchant ancestors, his heart was also a little inexplicably sad.
"Although the blood in the tenth blood groove is not full, it is only less than an inch long from the top of the trough, and from my current perspective, it is about the same. And all I had to do was follow in my father's footsteps and fill it up. ”
"However, there is still a certain gap between the total amount of blood in a person's body, compared to the distance of less than an inch, and then multiplied by the huge surface area of the blood trough. ”
"Although my business is a business heirloom, it is also a martial arts practice for generations, and there is a martial arts heritage. It's a pity that I have practiced martial arts so far, but I have not officially broken through to the acquired realm and stepped into the road of martial arts, and my own blood and qi are not as good as those who have really embarked on the road of martial arts. I don't know if my generation will be able to fill the rest of the blood tank. ”
After standing silently on the edge of the lotus platform for a few minutes, Shang Tianji took a step and came directly to the center of the lotus platform, seeing that the blood in the long bridge-type blood trough was also almost full, and he also knew that what the ancestors of the merchants had to do was only one step away from success.
However, when he saw the huge area of the blood pool, Shang Tianji was still a little apprehensive in his heart.
"Ancestors bless me, the heavens have come. Soon, Shang Tianji quickly suppressed some negative emotions in his heart, muttered in a low voice, as if he was going to complete a sacred and glorious cause, and went directly to the palm print next to the Long Bridge Blood Trough.
Then, Shang Tianji's face was straight, he sat down, and without the slightest hesitation, he stretched out his left hand, which was directly printed on the white jade palm print.

When Shang Tianji's palm just touched the white jade palm print, the white jade palm print seemed to come to life, trembling slightly, and then a huge suction force suddenly came from the jade palm, which adsorbed Shang Tianji's palm on the white jade palm print.
"It's coming. Shang Tianji's palm was sucked by the white jade palm print, and he couldn't move, but Shang Tianji didn't care about it and groaned.
As Shang Tianji's words fell, the white jade palm print that had tightly sucked Shang Tianji's palm suddenly squirmed, slowly softened, and finally turned into a liquid white jade syrup, completely enveloping Shang Tianji's palm.
After the white jade slurry wrapped Shang Tianji's palm, it directly evolved into tiny fluffy tentacles, covering Shang Tianji's palm, and then slowly stretched into Shang Tianji's blood vessels along the pores on Shang Tianji's palm, leading the blood in Shang Tianji's body into the long bridge blood trough.
"Who would have thought that jade would directly absorb human blood. If this scene spreads, it is estimated that many people will be scared to death. Although Shang Tianji had long known the way of blood sacrifice to the lotus platform, it was the first time to bleed, and the scene in front of him still had a certain visual impact on Shang Tianji.
Although the white lotus platform sucking blood is a bit incredible, but outside of the visual impact, Shang Tianji itself has no feeling of tenderness, and there is no discomfort on the body, if he closes his eyes and does not look at the fluffy tentacles, Shang Tianji can't even feel the blood in his body flowing.
It's like when a person wants to take blood for a physical examination, he feels a little when the needle just punctures the skin, and when the blood is drawn, if he doesn't pay attention to it, he almost doesn't feel it, and now this is the case with Shang Tianji.
However, Shang Tianji slowly felt that something was wrong, as time went by, the blood in his body flowed more and more, Shang Tianji's face became a little pale, his body became more and more weak, and his eyelids had a tendency to take a nap.
"It's going to suck me to death. Shang Tianji was dizzy at this time, but the fluffy tentacles had the slightest intention of letting go, even with Shang Tianji's steadiness, he couldn't help but wail.

Shang Tianji wailed, and Bai Yuliantai trembled slightly, as if expressing his dissatisfaction, just like a foodie who was tasting food was disturbed, looking a little impatient.
But fortunately, when Shang Tianji was so weak that he was about to fall asleep, Bai Yuliantai seemed to feel the limit of Shang Tianji's body, and the fluffy tentacles finally reluctantly withdrew from Shang Tianji's body, and the white jade palm print also slowly squirmed, changing back to its original appearance, and Shang Tianji was able to pull out his palm.
At this point, Shang Tianji's first bloodletting ended.
......
The grass and trees are withered, the sun and the moon are like shuttles, time is like a white horse, the old blood flows away from the new blood, and the time of the year passes in a blink of an eye.
During this year's time, Shang Tianji followed the ancestral teachings, and would come to this white jade tower every ten days, climb the white jade lotus platform, and then bleed, sacrifice to the white lotus platform, and then drag Zhou's tired body to retreat from the lotus platform and walk out of the jade tower.
This is done 6636 times, each time it is a challenge to the limit of the body's endurance. Fortunately, the merchant has a long heritage and some heritage, and Shang Tianji can be conditioned in time after each bloodletting, restore blood and replenish the source.
Otherwise, after a year like this, Shang Tianji would be disabled if he did not die.
On this day, as usual, Shang Tianji once again walked into the White Jade Tower and came to the White Jade Lotus Terrace.
At this time, the blood pool, which was about to be filled with the blood of the ancestors of the merchants, after a year of Shang Tianji's efforts, was only the last less than half a layer of white paper thick distance from the full pool, and it seemed that it was almost full.
"After a year of hard work, it is finally about to achieve positive results, my businessman's ancestors have a saying, the blood pool is full, and miracles are present. Success or failure is here, let me see what is the secret of my business that has been passed down for generations. Shang Tianji came to the Long Bridge Blood Tank very skillfully, and then sat down cross-legged, putting his palm into the white jade palm print.
Shang Tianji's palm was put into the white jade palm print, and the white jade squirmed, and then sucked blood.
In this regard, Shang Tianji's expression remained unchanged, after all, he had been bloodletting for a year, and slowly Shang Tianji got used to it. As Shang Tianji's blood continued to flow into the blood trough, the remaining blood pool like half a sheet of tissue paper was slowly filled.

At a certain moment, the blood in the blood pool finally reached the apex of the blood pool, and the blood pool was complete, and it was at this moment that the entire White Jade Lotus Platform trembled gently. At this time, Shang Tianji only felt that there was a gentle invisible force restraining him, and when he was caught off guard, this force directly pushed Shang Tianji off the White Jade Lotus Platform.
"It's... It's incredible. ”
When Shang Tianji reacted, he was already standing steadily under the white lotus stage, with invisible power and precise force, the thing at this moment was more subversive than Bai Yu's automatic blood sucking, and it was more impactful.
But the next moment, something happened that made Shang Tianji even more stunned.
I saw that ten blood rays of light rushed up from the ten blood troughs on the White Jade Lotus Platform, and according to a certain mysterious arrangement, they bombarded the sky above the White Jade Lotus Platform with lightning speed, causing a wave of spatial ripples in the floor space of this layer of the White Jade Tower.

The space above the floor is constantly wriggling and twisting, gradually forming a spatial passage, and when the spatial passage is stable and formed, a woman with purple boots on her feet and a peerless elegance stepped out of it.
This woman's skin is like clotted fat, no powder, red lips, thin eyebrows like willow leaves, long hair tied back with a hosta, purple jade belt tied around the waist, neat and neat, revealing a noble atmosphere, a pair of eyes as deep as stars, which makes people unbearable to look at directly.
"Ancestor ......" A passage appeared out of thin air in the void, and it was already shocking for a peerless goddess to come out of it, but when Shang Tianji saw the woman's face clearly, his head was blank, and he subconsciously exclaimed.
The merchant has been passed down for more than 100 generations, and naturally there is a family tree.
On the genealogy of the merchant family, there are not only the names of the descendants of the merchants, but also the portraits of the contemporary heads of the merchants.
The reason why Shang Tianji recognized this woman at a glance is precisely because this woman is the eighteenth generation ancestor of the merchant, and she is also the head of the merchant at that time, and the only female head of the merchant in the history of the merchant.
Not only that, even if it was just a portrait, Shang Tianji imagined the peerless face of Luo Shen at that time, which was definitely the most beautiful woman in Shang Tianji's impression, and what stars and supermodels on TV compared to it, they were all a bunch of shit. So when Shang Tianji saw the portrait of Luo Shen for the first time, he was also amazed by it, and couldn't help but imprint it deeply in his mind.
Seeing Luo Shen at this time, Shang Tianji recognized her at first sight.
However, in Shang Tianji's impression, Luo Shen, as the eighteenth generation ancestor of the merchant, was a figure thousands of years ago, and at this time, the person who had died thousands of years ago appeared alive in front of Shang Tianji, no wonder Shang Tianji was shocked.
"I am Shang Luo, the eighteenth generation of the merchant family, how many generations are you the descendant of my merchant?
Its voice is crisp and very beautiful, but there is a majesty in its own voice that cannot be strict, and its language is not any language on earth, but the most incredible thing is that Shang Tianji just understood the meaning of his words.
