Chapter 4: The Sacrifice I
How long has it been since you returned to the castle?
Once again, Highbury stood on the first floor of the castle hall, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart;
The wool carpet of the hall had panel-shaped spots of light, and the winter sun was peculiarly deserted, and Highbury tightened his coat;
Even though it was in the house, it was still cold without a fire in the fireplace;
"Cluck~Cluck~Cluck~"
It's the sound of hardwood soles tapping on marble;
Highbury hurried to dispel the cranky thoughts in his mind, and turned his head, and saw Madame Sir approaching, followed by several noble ladies and servants;
He stepped forward and half-knelt down:
"Madame, seeing you so healthy, God willing"
Alice walked over and sat down in a high-backed chair, fuchsia velvet supporting her curvaceous hips, and her slender waist was a white breast;
Highbury didn't dare to look more, and bowed his head respectfully;
Alice held a red feather fan in her hand, opened it to cover the corners of her mouth slightly, and said:
"Get up, Highbury!"
"I'm sorry to have you lose your position as castle steward!"
Highbury stood up and said:
"Madam, all this is as it should be" is very decent, he knows that he doesn't need to say much now, as long as the lady in front of him understands in his heart that he will be rewarded sooner or later;
Of course, the premise of all this is that you can continue to reflect your due value!
With this in mind, Highbury continued:
"Madame, Sir said that he would be out for a while, a very important matter concerning the future of the Finney family, and he would take care of it himself," he took out a fully imprinted letter from his bosom and handed it to the maid beside him:
"This is a letter from Sir to you, ma'am"
Alice took the letter, checked the imprint, and then opened it:
"Dear Alice,
Your dear husband must have already set out when you saw this letter! I am not in a position to say the details of the matter here, wait for me to return!
The affairs of the family are left to you, you can consult the subi knights for the defense of the territory, the interior minister George will also bring you help, and the guards of the castle can be handed over to Hans, he is trustworthy
As for Baytown, you don't have to pay too much attention to it, Highbury and George will arrange it, and they all know what I want. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Love Your Husband: Seta"
Alice was slightly silent after reading it, then folded the letter and put it away, looked up and asked:
"Highbury, did Sir say anything to you, where is he going?"
Highbury says:
"Madame, Sir only said that he was going to sea, and where was he going, and what was he going?
"But rest assured, ma'am, in fact every once in a while, a knight's order is passed on to the shore through the merfolk."
"The connection is not broken!"
Alice was slightly silent, and when she had an idea in her heart, she ordered a servant:
"Go and get someone to invite the Interior Governor and the Knight Subi to the castle, I have something to say to them," said the servant, and immediately took his skirt and ran away;
Then he turned to look at the ladies and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, ladies, let's meet again next time!"
These women were the wives and daughters of some small nobles in the vicinity, and they naturally came here to represent the vassal Finney family.
"Yes, Lady Sir Alice"
The irrelevant people left, and soon George the Interior Officer and Subi, the Apprentice Knight, arrived:
"Good afternoon, ma'am!"
Alice rubbed her forehead, pointed to the sofa and said:
"Sit down, Highbury, and repeat what Sir has told you!"
"Yes, ma'am!" said Highbury again:
"That's about it!"
Alice raised her head, the feather fan covered the corners of her mouth, and her voice was crisp and pleasant:
"What do you think, gentlemen?"
。。。。。。
Colored plains
People came out of their homes and were actively preparing;
A variety of colorful corals and seaweeds are decorated on the outside of the house, and the already colorful plains become more beautiful for a while.
Delicious meats and delicious seaweed were also sorted out and made into beautiful platters and placed on the stone table;
Today is a big day for the tribes;
A celebration of the great king's divine revelation!
Everyone is preparing for the new high, and the newly integrated tribes are also desperately in need of such a celebration to complete the final integration;
On the edge of the temple square, White Fang commanded his warriors to protect the entire temple, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw the high priest hurriedly approaching and grabbing him:
"White Fang, let's discuss together!" he gasped:
"For a few other people, I also arranged for someone to call them!"
He followed the high priest to the corner of the temple, found a stone and sat down, and White Fang said in confusion:
"High priest, what are you discussing?"
Terry Hugh waved his hand and panted and said:
"Don't worry, wait for everyone to come together and say"
White Fang nodded and asked no more, and not long after, he saw a probationary priest with six men rushing over;
Then there was a salute, and then several people formed a circle in the corner of the temple wall.
Now that time is tight, the old mermaid did not delay, glanced left and right, widened his eyes and said:
"How are things going? Are all right? According to the king's will, there will be God's attention during the sacrifice! We must not make a mistake!" After a pause, he emphasized again:
"Not at all!"
After the old mermaid finished speaking, the others turned their eyes to White Fang, and the tall mermaid warrior shook his neck, nodded and said:
"My King's Guard is always ready and you can't go wrong!"
The old mermaid nodded, and turned to look at the other leaders:
"What about you? You have to be responsible for regulating the people, and you must not mess with the sacrifices! And the decoration of the whole tribe must be as beautiful as possible."
"By the way, there is also food, the sacrifice is followed by a celebration, the food should be hearty, and everyone should be happy!"
"Feel the grace of God!"
"Are you all ready?"
In the current Tribe tribe, the rulers can be divided into three tiers: the king, the old mermaid and the white fang, and the other leaders (since Seta has no contract with them).
Hearing the inquiry at this time, several leaders hurriedly shook their heads and said:
"No problem guaranteed!"
One of the buckteeth also said smartly:
"High Priest, don't worry, everything is ready! I have been preparing since three days ago, and I will never go wrong!
When the others heard this, they all nodded their heads again and again, saying that it was good, and that's it.
Calling them over, I just wanted to remind them as much as possible, but also because the pressure was too great, and a few people needed to come together, so listening to the statements of a few people, the old mermaid smiled with satisfaction:
"That's good" After speaking, he raised his head and looked at the spots of light on the sea above his head, and after estimating the time, the old mermaid stood up and waved his hand:
"Let's keep an eye on it, it's almost time," and then turned his head:
"Captain White Fang, you should go to the king's side too"
Immediately they all nodded in agreement, and went their separate ways;
。。。。。。
It was soon noon, and the sun rose overhead, leaving a small spot of light on the sea;
All the clansmen came to the square in front of the temple, and they were lined up, and the soldiers of the king's guard, dressed in iron armor, guarded the whole temple;
The road from the palace to the temple is directly connected, and at this time it is also arranged with flowers, and strong warriors are lined up on both sides of the road, which looks extraordinary.
The old mermaid Tri Hugh looked at the scene in front of him excitedly, his eyes were slightly moist, and he secretly muttered to himself:
'Even the former Tetri tribe did not have the atmosphere it has now!'
'The future of the Tetri tribe will definitely be stronger and more brilliant than before!'
'All this has been brought by the king, and I only hope that the great god of the sea will bless our king and that he will be able to inform the tribe of Tetri for a long time!'
Not only the old mermaid, but all the other mermaids were shocked by the scene in front of them, although the tribe only had more than 100 people, the atmosphere it created was beyond the understanding of all the tribesmen!
After the shock, there is deep obedience, and joy!
Such a powerful tribe is its own tribe!
