One Hundred and Twenty-Four The Birth of Lord Xu (2)
"Knock knock. The sound of drums became more and more intense, accompanied by the sound of sacrificial instruments, and the white-clothed palace maids around the altar began to dance around the altar to pray for blessings.
This dance attracted a lot of attention, and for a moment, it seemed that I had forgotten my fear just now, and I enjoyed it with relish.
Time passed minute by minute, and the flames of the giant ding became more vigorous, but there was no figure in it.
Maybe the girl has been burned to ashes, but everything will not be determined until the flames are naturally extinguished.
The emperor took the tea from the eunuch beside him, and asked the great elder of the Xu family beside him: "Great elder, this atavistic person of the Xu family was selected by such a cruel ceremony?"
The elder of the Xu family nodded slightly, and said, "What the emperor said is that according to legend, the power of the bloodline of the Xu family is able to control the Yin soldiers and Yin generals, that is, the generals of the underworld. If you want to control the power of the underworld, you must naturally be able to kiss the underworld once. The power of this bloodline can naturally protect the integrity of your physical body, if there is someone who has no return, naturally he is not qualified to bear the power of this atavism, and then it will be burned completely by this raging fire. “
"It's cruel. How can a good person bear this blazing fire?" said lazily, the emperor didn't seem to believe such rumors, but it was a pity. If you don't send it to this sacrifice, maybe you can do something.
"The emperor doesn't know. This Xu family's atavistic power is naturally possible. The suffering of this burning fire can only bring that person closer to another world and accept the source of that power. If you can't afford it today, then in the future, if you come into contact with the mainstream dossier of the Xu family, you will also go crazy. The Great Elder of the Xu Family explained.
"The Xu family has not seen an atavistic person appear for hundreds of years, and Lone is very much looking forward to what this atavistic ancestor of the Xu family looks like. The emperor smiled and leaned back on the stool, no longer speaking, and looked into the burning giant dome.
The suffering of burning fire is to bring you back from the dead, let you personally walk into that world, really see the source of your strength, see, that, the real you!
Yan Xu could hear the sound of the flame ignishing, then jumping, and exploding.
Her skin could feel the heat coming from the depths of the flames.
She could also feel that her body seemed to have gradually become stiff and numb.
"Yan Xu, Yan Xu" In her ears, there seemed to be a voice of calling, like a man and a woman, it seemed to be a child, it seemed to be an old man, it seemed to be familiar, it seemed to be strange, it seemed to be a person, and it seemed that there were many people.
Yan Xu, who is it? That's not my name.
Yan Xu slowly opened his eyes, this place was not in the giant ding, and there was no flame around him.
Instead, it was in a forest, a gloomy forest, and this forest was very familiar, as if I had been there. The bell on her feet rang before she stepped on, and she realized that her feet were naked, even slightly cold.
Yan Xu took a step, and the grass and trees in the forest trembled slightly. With the faint light, Yan Xu walked forward. This feeling is amazing, the road that I don't know is there, but there is an invisible force pulling me.
In the grass in front of him, suddenly a tombstone stood up, a lonely tombstone, with several chains tightly wrapped around it, as if it was locking something. Yan Xu stepped forward. What was written on that tombstone, Yan Xu couldn't see it clearly.
A voice came from behind him: "Touch it." “
Yan Xu turned his head violently, and a person exactly like herself appeared behind her, she was also wearing a mask, she was also wearing white clothes, but the difference was her body, exuding a faint red.
"Give me this body, and you will have no pain, no sorrow, and no one will hurt you. Thou shalt have the most powerful power in the world, how. “
"Who are you?"
"I, look, isn't it written on the back?" the girl who exuded a red aura pointed behind Yan Xu. Yan Xu turned his head, and the words on the tombstone gradually became clearer, and it read, Yan Xu's tomb.
"That's my name. Yan Xu couldn't help but take a step back.
"That's not your name, your name, it's called Xu Fu, remember. “
"Xu Fu. “
"Thou art born for the sake of this Kangxuan dynasty, and thou hast made it your mission to reclaim the lost peace. Therefore give me thy body, and I will give thee all thy strength. Xu Fu looked at Yan Xu in front of him, his hand slowly stretched out, stretched out to Yan Xu's face, and touched the cold mask.
Yan Xu didn't retreat, let alone flinch, her eyes looked directly at the red eyes that were close at hand, and her hand slightly caressed the beads on her chest that were emitting a faint blue light.
Listen to the words that come from my ears, which are breathtaking and immobile.
"Give it to me, I will give you strength, so that you can return to that world, again. “
Yes, Yan Xu knows that he needs strength. Only strength can make her a real Yan Xu, qualified, and capable of walking to his side and standing by his side.
Only power!
Yan Xu's black eyes were imprinted with the red eyes, and behind Xu Fu there was a huge evil ghost standing at some point, the evil ghost's body was tightly chained, and it was smiling hideously, looking at itself.
Xu Fu's hand touched Yan Xu's mask, slowly removed it, and waited until the moment the mask was opened.
The flame of the giant tripod was slowly extinguished, and under the engulfment of the flames, the charcoal fire and rice that originally filled the giant tripod also turned into ashes, drifting with the wind, and the originally full giant tripod is now empty.
As the surrounding sacrificial dances ended, the white-clothed palace maids pulled up the white brocade and covered the giant ding.
Juding is the height of a man and a half.
The surrounding palace maids lifted up and put down together, and the white brocade slowly fell from above on top of the giant ding.
The people around him all whispered and discussed.
"That girl, she must be dead. “
"Oh, that's pathetic. “
"That's it. “
The emperor on the highest seat also straightened up, and said regretfully: "It seems that the sacrifice is over." His gaze turned to the Great Elder.
Xu Qingruo, who was silent behind him, also breathed a sigh of relief.
The Great Elder, however, had a solemn gaze and did not speak.
The emperor nodded, and the eunuch beside him stepped forward and just opened his mouth, but the words did not come out.
Only a few screams were heard around the altar, causing a commotion.
The people in the stands pointed to the four pillars and shouted, "Blue flames, blue flames." “
As soon as this voice came out, everyone's eyes looked at the four pillars of the altar. The top of the pillar was a deep blue.
The brocade on top of the giant dome suddenly moved.
Something seems to be coming out of the judge, all at once.
Everyone held their breath and looked at the giant ding.
The white-clothed palace maids around them also took a few steps back and looked at the giant ding with a frightened expression.
I saw that the brocade suddenly lifted up. A figure appeared in the brocade, and it turned out to be the girl.
The girl stood up naked, wrapped in white brocade, intact.
At this moment, not to mention the people, the emperor also looked at the girl wearing the mask in disbelief. The girl's eyes glowed with a faint red glow, maybe it was fire, maybe it wasn't.
It's hard to do it. The Great Elder of the Xu Family looked at the girl with some incredulity, that eye, that color, that faint flame, everything, exactly the same as Xu Fu back then.
That's right, it must be, there is hope for the Xu family!
"The Xu family is returning to their ancestors, and the head of the Xu family. I don't know who took the lead in shouting.
I saw the surrounding Xu family disciples kneeling on the ground at the same time, shouting: "The head of the Xu family, the head of the Xu family." “
This voice also reached the people in an instant, and those people couldn't help but echo it.
The corners of the emperor's mouth smiled slightly, from today onwards, everything in Xixuan will rewrite everything again!
"Please allow the emperor to bring the head of the family back. Elder Xu arched his hand at the emperor.
"Lonely, yes. “
