Chapter 680: Antecedents
The reason why Li Qingyi led the two women in front of her to talk more was because she wanted to know more useful information from them, knowing that the Lin family wanted to open the altar again, she couldn't help but be a little curious about the purpose of the Lin family.
It's just that the woman in the green blue shirt was just about to answer, and the Lin family walked in from the stone gate.
The two hurriedly saluted, "Princess."
Lin looked at Li Qingyi, "Sometimes, knowing too much may not be a good thing."
"You're going to have to make me a ghost."
Lin walked up to her with his head held high, the corners of his lips slightly hooked, "I won't talk nonsense with a person who is about to die, you don't have to waste any time to delay time, I'm not such a fool who likes to show off for a while."
Li Qingyi gritted his teeth secretly, this Lin family is really as invulnerable as ever!
Immediately, the Lin clan instructed the two women, "Qingluo, Ziluo, you go and bring the others over."
"Yes, Princess."
"Others?"
Li Qingyi was a little discolored.
Fang Cai Qingluo said that their clan had sacrificed their lives with ninety-nine eighty-one people.
Lin seemed to see what she was thinking, and said, "The human sacrifice required this time, the birth date is particularly important, and I wasted a lot of effort in order to find all the twelve people used in the sacrifice."
When Li Qingyi heard this, he couldn't help but wonder who these twelve people were.
The surrounding chanting continued, Li Qingyi felt dizzy as long as he concentrated on thinking, those chants were mixed with fine and dense drums, although the sound was not high, but it made people feel that the blood was restless, and the heart seemed to be beating with the rhythm of the drums, which made people tired.
Even the surrounding iron chains were slightly shaken, and the dried corpses hanging on them also trembled, rubbing one by one, and the shaking amplitude became larger and larger, which was terrifying!
She didn't dare to look up again, nor did she dare to concentrate on it anymore, so she raised her spirit and asked the Lin family, "The Chongnan National Master is also from the Yan clan, what is her identity?"
Speaking of Chongnan's female national teacher, a trace of displeasure flashed in Lin's eyes, and he looked at Li Qingyi and snorted coldly, "You will definitely die today, so you don't have to bother any more, just wait for the sacrifice to begin, and you can suffer less crimes."
Li Qingyi was not angry when he heard this, but sensitively captured Lin's emotions.
It seems that there are some differences or disagreements between the Lin family and the Chongnan female national teacher.
She continued to speculate: "I heard that there is a holy woman in the country, and she is so easy to be a national teacher, could it be that she is the holy daughter of your generation?"
The Lin clan's displeasure turned into gloomy, "The thousand-year-old altar of the Yan clan is related to the survival of the whole clan, and it has been sacrificed by living beings for thousands of years, and the bloodline of the people of the clan is immortal. A hundred years ago, the great-grandmother of the night moon destroyed the sacrifice, which caused the disaster to cause the Xiao Wall, causing the Yan clan to suffer a catastrophe and fall apart! If it weren't for the withering of the clansmen and the absence of other suitable candidates, Ye Qiyue would not have been able to serve as a saint at all."
Li Qingyi was shocked when he heard this.
Regardless of whether the Yan clan was split because the lord was unconscious or because the sacrifice was destroyed, the Lin clan called the Yan country "the Yan clan", and said that the sacrifice of living beings for thousands of years made her speechless for a while.
It seems that the Yan tribe has been inherited for thousands of years, and even developed from an ancient tribe into a kingdom.
Since it is a tribe, it is not surprising that there are such sacrifices.
She had also heard of many ancient tribes that used human sacrifices.
"It's ridiculous that Nightshade Moon made the same mistake as her great-grandmother! If I hadn't discovered it in time and made a remedy, this plan to restore the country would have been wasted!"
"What kind of sacrifice is so important? What did Nightshade and her great-grandmother do wrong?"
Lin looked at the altar with a look of reverence on his face, "For thousands of years, the Yan clan has been pinning their faith on this altar, and the clan believes that this altar can communicate with the gods, as long as human sacrifices are offered, the gods will bless the clansmen with immortal bloodlines and strong tribes. However, as the tribes grew stronger, their branches grew more and more, and there were disputes among themselves, there were fewer and fewer people willing to give their lives to the altar. In the end, only an agreement could be reached between the branches, and every hundred years of sacrifices would be elected by one of the twelve branches
The people of the famous people are sacrificed as human beings."
Li Qingyi listened to Lin's narration while pinching her palms fiercely to resist the chaotic drumbeat and wisps of aroma, she concentrated on talking to Lin, trying to ignore those voices, "Promotion? I am afraid that those who are elected are not willing, and are either outcasts and isolated, or useless to the tribe."
A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Lin's lips, "You're right, just like the current family family, there will always be some people who become victims, and those who are called family marriages are just another kind of human sacrifice."
Li Qingyi looked at Lin's expression, a little unable to describe the turmoil in her heart, she said, "Such an agreement may bury hidden dangers."
"You're right, because of this agreement, there are also fights within the branches, and they start to intrigue and calculate each other in order not to become the candidates for sacrifice. Gradually, there was opposition to the sacrifice, and after years of strife, the altar that carried the hope of the people's faith became a secret, and the gods could only accept the blood of the most useless and lowly people."
"It turns out that the original purpose of this dungeon was to hide this altar?" Li Qingyi suddenly understood, she looked at the Lin family's regretful expression, and asked, "Don't you think that the use of human sacrifice is too inhumane and too absurd and cruel?"
"Cruel?" Lin disagreed, "Giving one's life to the gods is so sacred, and it should be glorified."
Li Qingyi sneered, "In that case, why don't you dedicate your noble blood to the gods?"
Lin held his head high, "Everyone has their own mission, and I am no exception."
Li Qingyi wanted to ask clearly, but the stone door was opened again.
The long skirt of the Lin family dragged on the blood groove on the ground, forming waves, and looked at Li Qingyi condescendingly and said, "The story is almost heard, but I said it, no matter how much you know, it's useless, no matter how noisy it is, I'll cut your tongue first."
Li Qingyi smiled, not afraid at all, "Since I am one of the human sacrifices, at least I should ensure the integrity of my body, right? Isn't it blasphemy to lack arms and legs?"
Lin was noncommittal, and turned to look in the direction of the stone gate.
Li Qingyi suddenly felt nervous.
Previously, Lin said that he would use Li Miaoran's virgin to stop bleeding to make up for her shortcomings, but I don't know if my sister was really arrested.
Qingluo Ziluo came in first, "Princess, the people have already been brought."
Li Qingyi looked behind them and saw a row of people in plain clothes walking in.
When she saw the first person, her eyes widened suddenly, and it turned out to be ......
