Chapter 1294: Altar of the Heavenly Sacrifice
readx;??“ What a boldness!" Meng Haoran's face turned blue with anger, and he couldn't wait to rush over now and arrest all those who ran away and behead them!
Seeing that the emperor did not kneel and ran away, at the time of Yinhu, it was enough to be a big crime to be beheaded by all the doors! What made people even more angry was that the new emperor ascended the throne, granted amnesty to the world, and also put out a relief market, and gave away food and clothing, and what he got was such a reward! As the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, it is strange not to be angry when he thinks that he is patrolling day and night with his brothers and protecting a group of such people!
On the contrary, Xuanbao didn't express any dissatisfaction, got down from the dragon chariot, and said to Meng Haoran: "It's okay, it still needs time!"
The people of Kyoto have lived under the rule of Yinhu for more than ten years, and they know how to survive from the cracks! To say that Yinhu is brutal, the people around him suffer the most, so the people of Kyoto have a kind of deep-rooted philistine and cunning in their bones, all of them are smart, and they are very cunning, as long as they can survive, they dare to do anything, and no one cares!
So when the market was relieved, many people came today and will come tomorrow, obviously they were already full, and they had to take away a lot of food, fortunately, Xuanjun had already prepared for such a thing, and distributed it according to the head and appearance, and took more and brought more people, forcibly took it back, and punished 20 boards!
However, this kind of punishment is really nothing to the people of Kyoto now, so there are countless people who take risks, so that there is always a group of people who simply live on the forbidden street and wait for the relief market to open!
Most of the people who fainted this time were people who slept on the Forbidden Martial Street, and it was snowing so heavily on such a cold day, so they found a place to block the snow and slept down, and it was lucky not to freeze to death!
However, when the two Xuan soldiers carried a fainted person over, Xuan Bao still showed a clue, although this person fainted, but he was still panting rapidly, his face was red and even purple, and his nails were already white!
Xiao Yin checked it, and then said to Xuan Bao, "It's hard to draw conclusions now." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Fourteenth sister, check the yin qi!"
Phantom Ji answered, clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and then slowly parted to the sides, and the aura quickly spread all around.
After a few fainting people, Xiao Yin finally stopped, turned her head and said to Xuan Bao: "These are very weak people, and the reason for their fainting is also there, it is caused by breathlessness!"
Xuan Bao turned his head and lowered the phantom Ji, and without her asking, the phantom Ji said to him with a strange face: "The yin qi is very strong, but it all ran underground!"
The yin qi has all run to the ground? What about the top of the head? It's broken! Xuanbao suddenly understood the crux of the problem, and said to everyone: "I know what the reason is! Xiao Yin, you go back to the palace! Commander Meng, carry these people away and settle them properly, it shouldn't take long for you to wake up! You don't have to wait for me, I'm going to Wanfu Pagoda!"
With Xuanbao's whistle, the red rainbow Liuyun flew out of the imperial city, Xuanbao turned over his horse, smiled bitterly at Jiao'er with a curious face, pointed to the top of his head and said, "One Yuan Ball!"
As soon as these words came out, Jiao'er, Shi Wuce, and the others all suddenly realized, and their faces also showed expressions of surprise! Obviously, at this time, the one-yuan ball had already lost its effect in absorbing yin qi, and began to inhale even the normal miscellaneous qi!
Just as he was about to leave, Jiao'er suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute! Xianggong, bring the fourteenth sister over!" Xuanbao thought about it, immediately nodded, and said to Phantom Ji: "Let's go, let's go over together!"
There is no need for Phantom Ji to sit on the Red Rainbow Liuyun, the white horse has now evolved wings, and followed the Red Rainbow Liuyun with the Phantom Queen, but neither horse flew, but galloped on the capital avenue!
Compared to speed, the white horse is still a little worse. Although it is compared with the red rainbow flowing clouds everywhere, it is still slightly inferior after all. The white horse is a yin thing, unless it is in the netherworld, it is impossible to compare to the red rainbow flowing clouds in the yang world.
The two horses arrived at the Wanfu Pagoda one after the other, where there are Xuan soldiers on duty every day, and ordinary people are not allowed to climb the tower. Before Xuan Bao and Phantom Ji had time to get off their horses, they felt a sudden gust of yin wind rise from the ground, Phantom Ji screamed, jumped off the white horse, ran to the gate of the tower, and sucked all the yin qi that rushed into the bodies of the two Xuan soldiers on himself!
The two Xuan soldiers only felt cold and hot all over their bodies, as if something was passing through their bodies, and they didn't know that they had just turned around in the ghost gate!
"The one-yuan ball is not in the sky!" Xuan Bao's face was solemn.
Phantom Ji nodded, and pointed to her feet: "In the underground! I can feel the condensation of Yin Qi! I must find it quickly, otherwise the disaster will be endless!"
A large amount of yin qi is absorbed in the one-yuan ball, and once there is no yin qi to suck, it will absorb miscellaneous qi, and the consequence of absorbing miscellaneous qi is that people will not be able to breathe, and finally it will be filled with miscellaneous qi, and all the yin qi absorbed before will be discharged!
Xuanbao said to the two Xuanbao: "Leave here immediately and tell the city patrol soldiers that they are not allowed to enter within a radius of 300 steps!"
Only then did the two Xuan soldiers notice that the people in front of them turned out to be the emperor and the fourteenth mother, and they hurriedly responded, and ran away!
Ming Xuanbing stopped, and Phantom Ji asked, "Is there a place near here that is more yin... Anyway, do you know where there is a cemetery nearby?"
The two Xuan soldiers glanced at each other, then pointed to the west at the same time, and said in unison: "Sacrifice to the Heavenly Altar!"
Phantom Ji patted her head, does this still need to ask? Yinhu killed hundreds of thousands of people here, plus the emperors of all dynasties sacrificed to the sky, they all have to be in this Temple of Heaven, if you want to say that the yin qi is the heaviest, is there a heavier place than here?
The two let Xuan Bing leave, then each got on his horse and went straight to the Temple of Heaven. Wanfu Pagoda was originally built in conjunction with the altar of the Heavenly Sacrifice Altar, so the two are not far apart, at most a distance of 300 steps.
It was originally an altar and a cattle pavilion, the altar was large enough to stand thousands of people, and the animal pavilion was a place for slaughtering livestock, and there were steps and an artificial river between the altar and the bridge.
The pavilion is nine steps higher than the altar, symbolizing the nine heavens. During the sacrifice to the heavens, the livestock will be slaughtered on the spot, and the blood will flow from the animal pavilion along the steps into the artificial river, also called the Tongtian River!
Legend has it that a few months ago, before Yinhu left Kyoto, blood from the Tongtian River came out every day and flowed onto this vast altar, and the blood was not the blood of livestock, but the blood of people!
Now this place is covered in heavy snow, but Xuanbao still seems to be able to smell the thick bloody breath!
The clouds in the sky have been absorbed, so the one-element ball has no support on it, and it is natural that it will fall.
Xuan Bao took Phantom Ji's hand and used her divine sense to spread around with her divine sense, looking for the whereabouts of the one-yuan ball.
If it was Phantom Ji herself, she would definitely not be able to let her divine sense fly out, but it would be easier to let Xuanbao carry it, and her sense of touch would be more sensitive than usual.
It's just that the yin qi here is originally heavy, and it is still more difficult to find something the size of a fist full of yin qi. Fortunately, Phantom Ji's current elixir cultivation is not low, and she quickly locked on to the target, and when Xuanbao took her divine sense back, Phantom Ji pointed to the animal pavilion and said to Xuanbao: "It's inside!"
Walking across the bridge, the two went straight to the animal pavilion, and when they were about to get closer, Phantom Ji suddenly grabbed Xuanbao's arm, with a panicked look on her face, and whispered: "Xianggong, I'm suddenly a little scared!"
This girl was originally the princess of the Netherworld, and there were few things in this world that could make her afraid, so when she said this, Xuan Bao also frowned slightly, reached out and hugged her into his arms, and asked her in a low voice: "Afraid, what are you afraid of? Do you feel something?"
"I don't know, I just feel that there's something bad in there, and it seems to be waiting for us to pass!" Phantom Hime's eyes were frightened by the dark door of the pavilion. It was just a doorway, and there was no door. The whole pavilion was covered with heavy snow, and it was white, only this doorway was dark, like a big mouth, waiting for someone to throw themselves into the net!
Xuanbao's courage has always been not small, so he stopped and said to Phantom Ji: "Then you wait for me here, my past one-yuan ball is likely to be in it, I must pick it up!"
Phantom Ji shook her head, hugged his arm and said, "I'm going with you!"
She was cheering herself up, but of course Xuanbao wouldn't hit her, just hugged her tightly and continued to move forward.
The altar of sacrificing to heaven has existed for hundreds of years, and this animal pavilion has a history of hundreds of years, almost every emperor will be here for a few days every year, and usually will come here when the wind and rain are not smooth.
One of the most solemn rituals in a few days is to slaughter livestock, using the blood of livestock to communicate the connection between the Son of Heaven and God, hoping that God will be able to give birth to a benevolent and compassionate heart.
Of course, when encountering some tyrants, they do not use the blood of livestock, but people! or criminals, or disobedient courtiers and subjects, and more importantly, prisoners of war!
In this way, this animal pavilion has become the most resentful place in the altar of the Heavenly Sacrifice Altar, and the yin qi is extremely heavy, no wonder the one-yuan ball will choose this place to hide, it itself has already carried too much yin qi!
Such holy treasures have a certain spirituality. For example, the Demon Sword will choose its own master, and it will also cultivate with the sword spirit.
The spirituality of the one-yuan ball was not fully exerted before, but this time Xuanbao used it to absorb the yin qi of Kyoto, and this was an opportunity for it to realize its potential! The yin qi that would have taken several years to clear had already been absorbed in about a month!
But at the same time, it also stimulates its spirituality, so that it automatically goes to find a place with yin energy, just like a child who is used to eating a certain delicious taste, will always pursue this delicious fragrance and keep eating!
However, the Xuan Bao is not like letting it eat forever, because for a holy treasure, there is no difference between an artifact and a demonic qi, and the key is the person who uses it. If the one-yuan sphere has been feeding on yin qi, then sooner or later it will go to the netherworld, and then completely transform into a yin thing!
At that time, the one-yuan ball will not play the role of helping Xuanbao at all, but a yin thing that only knows how to devour yin qi, and there is no afterlife bead in the netherworld, and there is no underworld bead, but there is an additional one-yuan ball full of a large amount of yin qi, which is enough to make up for the losses suffered before!
