It's a full moon day again, who will be the next meal for the White Tiger?

At noon, Namo came to me in a panic, pulled me by the sleeve, and went out with him to the coppersmith's shop. Both Runger and Zag were there, and Han Bao sat there pale and dumbfounded, and he didn't say anything when he saw me. It was Long Ge who told the reason for the incident: early this morning, a word came from the palace, and the queen said that the king had entrusted her with a dream last night, and that the strange bird flying in the sky was the enemy of the white tiger and the omen of disaster in the valley, and that this strange bird was attracted by Liya, and that in order to eliminate the disaster and take refuge, Liya must be sacrificed to the tiger.

The queen, whose heart is like a femme fatale, has finally begun a crazy revenge action.

It is impossible to stop her, and I have now torn my face with the queen, and it is useless to ask her any more. Maybe the next target is me, and the only hope is in the priest. Liya is only one of the candidates now, isn't there six other people? The result of divination is difficult to predict, not necessarily Liya, if the priest had made some arrangements in advance, the tragedy of Liya sacrificing the tiger might have been avoided.

I told Hanbo what I thought, and promised to go to the priest at once to find a solution, and Hanbao's face was a little better, but he was still worried.

He was very polite to my visit to the priest and warmly asked me how I was thinking about serving as a "royal minister." I couldn't answer for a while, I had already forgotten all about it, I just wanted to leave the valley as soon as possible, the regent was not right, and I was thinking about what to do with this "imperial matter".

"Haven't you thought about it yet? But don't be in a hurry about this, you can think about it slowly, and take advantage of this time to learn Ba well, as a messenger and an angel, you are not proficient in both languages." "The priest actually had the heart to joke, which eased my nervousness a lot.

"I heard that Liya was chosen to sacrifice the tiger ......"

"It turned out that it was for this, why did you care about Liya again, if you had agreed to my proposal to marry Liya, there would not have been so many things. The priest still teased.

"I just hope you let Liya go, this is all the queen's ghost, and she is just a victim of the queen. ”

"Everything has its own providence, if Liya should not die, she will naturally live well. The priest suddenly looked serious, but still smiled kindly.

Although the priest's answer was ambiguous, judging by his expression, Liya's life seemed to be in good condition.

I said goodbye to the priest with peace of mind, and on the way back I met Liya's father, Ga Dengji, who had just gone to the inner palace to plead with the queen, but was scolded by the queen, and was about to beg the priest with his cheeks, and when he saw me coming out of the priest's house, he asked Liya about the situation. I told him about my conversation with the priest and my own judgment, and the cave master was a little relieved.

When he returned to the coppersmith's shop, he told Han Bao and the others about the meeting with the priest, and everyone was finally in a better mood, and Han Bao barely ate something.

As it got dark, many people had already gathered in the Tiger Sacrifice Hall, and on the way I met the four cave masters of the priest's faction, who took the initiative to greet me and salute Han Bao reverently, all of which showed good signs.

The queen's temples were curled, her long skirt was swaying to the ground, and a cold smile was on the corner of her mouth. When he looked at me and Hanbao, his cheeks twitched, revealing deep bags under his eyes.

Yiga didn't wear makeup, her face was silent, and she was much haggard. King Ba is even older, his eyes are slanted, and he looks listless. The eldest prince didn't come, only the little prince was in the arms of a maid, looking at the black crowd innocently.

The ceremony was no different from the last time, the priest wore a robe and ascended to the altar, and in front of the altar were seven naked men and women, kneeling behind seven coals and fires, and Liya was among them.

Liya's head hung down, and her long hair covered her pale face and plump breasts, and she couldn't see her expression. Compared to the other six trembling people, Liya was motionless, as if she were a statue, her white, transparent skin shimmering with ivory in the light of the fire.

As the shaman chanted the incantation, Hanbo's hand kept gripping my arm, his nails digging deep into my flesh. After a long time, there was a "bang", and the pebbles in front of Liya burst first.

I was overwhelmed by the whirlwind of the world. Han Bao spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Liya remained motionless, as if expecting this moment to come, her head raised and walked straight towards the stone bed, her bumpy body glistening in the light of the fire.

She turned her head to look at the fallen Han Bao with a look of concern.

Suddenly, she smiled, a happy smile without regrets, like a holy angel.

It turns out that death can also be so calm, so beautiful!

What happened beyond sight of what happened was unbearable, and I and Runge, Namo, and Zag laboriously carried Hanbao into the coppersmith's shop, and the loss was beyond words, and a strong hatred for the priest and queen was stirred in our hearts.

I was so naïve that I thought that the priest would save Lia's life, but I didn't expect that Lia's death was exactly what the priest could not ask for. In this way, it will forever eliminate the aftermath of Hanbao's repentance, and it can also play an example of killing a hundred people, with the effect of warning the world, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

No wonder the priest tried his best to arrange for me to marry Lia, so as to break Hanbao's thoughts, but I didn't understand it at all, and blindly considered the problem from Hanbao's point of view, which made a big mistake.

But he didn't realize how much Han Bao's love for Liya was. As the saying goes: Tiger poison does not eat children. The priest did this, ostensibly to protect Hanbao, but in fact to push him to a dead end, which I know better than the priest about his own son.

If he's not Han Bao's father, if he's not the damned Prime Minister's priest, if ......

Han Bao woke up slowly, his eyes glazed over, muttering Liya's name, and fell into a deep stupor, until the next morning, Han Bao woke up again, although his face was still pale, but his eyes were unusually bright.

Han Bao said goodbye to me very calmly, not blaming me in the slightest, but from his unusual calm I felt a kind of throbbing before the eruption.
