Chapter 39: The Sacrificial Ceremony
There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the second day, Lin Feng, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by the maid, "Young Master Lin, master, please go to the main hall for a while." The maid said humbly.
Lin Feng hurriedly replied, "Wait a while, I'll be here right away." ”
The white Fire Clan suit given by the second miss last night fits exceptionally well on the body at the moment, especially the Fire Clan logo embellishment on the chest, which is even more brilliant, although Lin Feng is not very old, but his skin is white and bright, and he looks even more handsome and delicate in this white dress.
Sure enough, as soon as they entered the hall, everyone's expressions immediately became bright, and the female relatives of the clan even covered their mouths and smiled, commenting, and the words of appreciation were endless. Among them, Li Yan and Li Xi were the most prosperous, looking at the gazes cast by everyone, which made Lin Feng embarrassed.
Then he said shyly: "I have never worn such gorgeous clothes on weekdays, just because I accidentally damaged it during yesterday's practice, fortunately the second lady sent this set of clothes for first aid, so as not to laugh and be generous, the boy is here to thank the second miss for her kindness, but this dress is too gorgeous, wearing it on me loses its dignity, please forgive me." ”
"The little brother has a life-saving grace for the little girl, a piece of clothing is enough to worry about the teeth, today thanks to the little brother's hard work, willing to protect the little girl personally, to keep her safe, this great kindness is grateful, the old man Hongxuan has thanked him in advance, and when the little girl returns safely, he will be well entertained, thank the little brother!"
Lin Feng bowed and saluted, and whispered to Hongxuan: "The kid must live up to the patriarch's expectations, and the patriarch can rest assured." !”
"Daddy, my daughter also saw Lin Gongzi's exercises yesterday, and she is indeed the only master in the same year. Li Yan glanced at Lin Feng slightly, and then said with a smile.
Lixi also hugged Hongxuan coquettishly, and said happily: "Don't worry, Daddy, Lin Feng must be fine." ”
"With you saying so, I am relieved to be a father, the time is not early, then let's go!" Hongxuan said with a smile.
Out of the Fire Clan's mansion, the road was full of onlookers, after all, this is a sacrificial ceremony that only comes once in five years, many people want to see the excitement, and also want to see which young talent will be sent by the Fire Clan to participate this year.
"I heard that the third lady who participated in the ceremony this year is lively and lovely, and she is really beautiful when I see it today!"
"If you want to say that she is still beautiful, she is one of the best beauties in our Torch City, not only virtuous and virtuous, but also beautiful and wise, the most important thing is that she has already reached the advanced level of the underworld master at the age of twenty, this kind of cultivation genius is really rare!"
"This second young lady is indeed better than the third young lady, eh? Who is this young man in a white fire clan suit?"
"I heard that it was a guard specially invited by the third lady of the Fire Clan, and he must also be an unborn master, but his momentum is not like a person in the Fire Clan, a bit like a human race in the underworld. ”
"That's right, if you don't say it, I really don't see it. ”
"Don't say so much, let's go, let's go to the altar to see the excitement, it's rare for the three clans to get together, even if there is nothing to do with us, it's good to open your eyes and see what's new." ”
"This guy is right, go, the big guy will follow and see the excitement!"
For a while, everyone commented on it.
Lin Feng sat on the back of the horse in the middle, and the first one who walked was the patriarch Hongxuan, followed by Li Yan and Li Xi, and behind him was the entourage of the Fire Clan Mansion that could not be seen at a glance.
It's just that what puzzled Lin Feng was that the eldest lady of the Fire Clan didn't seem to have ever appeared, and she didn't know if she was married or something, and after thinking about it for a while, she went all the way out of the outskirts of the city with the crisp sound of horses' hooves, and finally came to the Heavenly God Cave Mansion after staggering and bumping for a full hour.
Lin Feng looked around, except for the three giant humanoid stone carvings standing tall, there was only a circular sacrificial platform left, and other than that, there was only a bustling crowd, was this the Heavenly God Cave Mansion? Why was it not as luxurious as the sacrificial ceremony he had participated in in his hometown in the Yang Realm?
There was a messy lawn in front of the altar, and the attendants of the Orc Clan came here first, and the Fire Clan also found a place to stand around. Presumably because it has not been sorted out for a long time, the weeds here have grown half a person high, and the petite Lixi has been submerged to her chest, pouting and picking up grass seeds with an impatient face, playing with them casually.
"Patriarch Hongxuan is really a model of the three clans, he came so early, how sincere is this heart, yo, I haven't seen you for a few years, Lixi's niece is so old, and she is getting more and more smart, and she is about to catch up with your sister!"
Lixi squinted. In the distance, a crowd of people in blue clothes also came to the altar, led by a middle-aged man with a good appearance but a gloomy face, who was smiling at Hong Xuan at the moment.
Li Yan whispered to Lin Feng: "This is one of the three clans, the Ice Clan Patriarch Yaosheng, don't look at the appearance of modest and atmospheric, but behind the scenes, he is a vicious and treacherous villain, after you enter the cave, you must guard against the two disciples behind him, the last time the eldest sister and the guards in the clan went in, they never came out, and after inquiring in many ways, they found out that it was very likely that the people of the Ice Clan were making trouble, but there was no evidence, so my father had to endure it." So this time, when you go in, you will not only explore the treasure, but also try to see if you can find any clues. ”
"I was still thinking about why there are only two sisters in the house, and I don't see the eldest sister, so that's the case, don't worry, as long as you find it, I will help you pay attention." Lin Feng returned.
"Who should I be, it turned out to be the Yaosheng patriarch of the Ice Clan, we are all guardians of the gods, although it is not enough to show sincerity sooner or later, but if someone who is not only insincere but also likes to do evil in secret is punished by the gods, it will be more than worth the loss. Patriarch Yaosheng, what do you say?" said Hong Xuan meaningfully.
Yaosheng's face was stunned, and then he said quietly: "This is natural, it's just that a few days ago, some villains deliberately released some rumors in a vain attempt to provoke a misunderstanding between our two clans, and I hope that Patriarch Hongxuan will be aware of everything and don't fall for the conspiracy and tricks of those villains!"
"Is it a conspiracy or not, the old man will find out, in short, he will never let the little girl die in vain!" Hongxuan said with a little anger.
"Why don't you see the patriarch and other disciples of the beast clan?" Lin Feng looked at it for a long time, and then asked at Li Yan.
Li Yan whispered: "This year's ceremony is presided over by the beast clan, so they are all busy in the background at the moment, the altar you see in front of you is only on the surface, the real cave is behind the escap, and after the beast clan patriarch comes up to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, the escap will be opened." ”
Lin Feng asked curiously, "Your exercises are above your sister, why didn't you let you go this time?"
Li Yan's face suddenly turned pale, and her voice trembled: "Lin Gongzi, don't ask, just protect your little sister well!"
Li Yan was reluctant to say, and Lin Feng didn't ask any further.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a black trench coat walked out of the escap, and the green blindness in his eyes was so dazzling that he couldn't even see his face clearly.
"This is the Misty Dragon Patriarch of the Beast Clan, because he wears black clothes all the year round, and has those stunning eyes, so for so many years, no one has ever seen his true face. Li Yan said secretly.
The expression of the fog dragon drifted past the two patriarchs, Hongxuan and Yaosheng, and then bowed down: "Welcome to the two patriarchs, I hope you will forgive me if there is any inconsiderate hospitality!"
The muffled sound of the fog dragon made Lin Feng's bean skin numb when he heard it, how could this person's voice be like this, it made people goosebumps when they heard it. Lin Feng said silently in his heart.
Patriarch Yaosheng returned with a smile: "What did Patriarch Wulong say, we are both guardians of the gods, and we are all here for sacrifices, so we don't care about these false gifts!"
"In that case, let's get started!" said the Fog Dragon.
Immediately, the busy beast disciples also walked out of the escap and stood in the middle of the altar, only to see the fog dragon raise the scepter in his hand, after a hazy spell, suddenly a scorching halo of sun shot in the sky, just shining on the scepter, the scepter suddenly became golden, everyone in the audience saw this scene and immediately knelt down in unison, shouting: "Welcome the three gods to their places, the original gods bless the lives of my three clans, the descendants are prosperous, the clan is harmonious, the people are prosperous, and the people are prosperous, and the eternal peace is peaceful!" We should remember the kindness of our ancestors, remember the love of blood and blood, think of the friendship of the same clan and common clan, regardless of race or sect, and swear to defend the gods and heroes to the death!"
The misty dragon then said, "After chanting, please open the cave by the gods!"
After the words were finished, the bodies of all the three became hazy, and Lin Feng's body was also abnormal, but there was no pain at all, and then he unconsciously closed his eyes, and the red blood mist was released from his body, and collectively floated towards the scepter in the hand of the fog dragon, the careful Li Yan was startled by the strange appearance on Lin Feng's body at this moment, he is not a member of the clan, why does he also exude the power of blood? But seeing that everyone's eyes were closed, Li Yan was silent and silent.
The scepter, which had absorbed the power of the bloodlines of the three clans, suddenly turned into a golden light and shot towards the escap, and as the waves slowly parted, a magnificent ancient palace came into everyone's eyes.
