Lai Songyi saw that Lai An actually spoke for Wu Xiu and didn't help him find a place, so he immediately shook his body reluctantly, and there was some dissatisfaction in his eyes: "Father...... How can you do that? ”

Lai An touched Lai Songyi's head and comforted him softly: "Songyi, you see how good Wu Xiu is to you, don't lose your temper." ”

Lai Songyi frowned, and did not continue to chase Wu Xiu. Seeing that Lai Songyi had calmed down, and Lai An's attitude towards him was not very disgusted, Wu Xiu cleared his mind and grabbed Lai Songyi's hand.

Lai Songyi struggled slightly, and did not resist too much. Wu Xiu smirked at Lai An, and his tone was very sincere: "Uncle, I am also drunk and courageous, so I dare to confess to Song Yi here." Actually, I've liked Songyi for a long time, uncle, I will definitely be good to her! ”

Ryan smiled and nodded, he also admired a simple and honest young man like Usho, but sometimes he was too stupid.

However, it still depends on what Lai Songyi means.

"Then you have to get along with Xiaoyi more in the future, and strive to make her recognize you."

Wu Xiu nodded violently and looked at Lai Songyi. At this time, Lai Songyi no longer had the arrogant appearance just now, on the contrary, there was a trace of shyness, her little face was flushed, and she couldn't speak.

Seeing this, Wu Xiu felt that there was a drama in his heart, and took Lai Songyi's hand back to the wine table, and everyone began to laugh again.

During this period, I don't know how long it took, Lai Songyi still fell silent, which is very different from her character.

At the end of the feast, everyone went out of the hall and came to the altar, where they found the high priest already present, and below them were rows of ice sculptures carved in the shape of the sages.

Li Shiyi seems to have been kneeling here for a long time, still holding a few sticks of incense in his hands, and constantly muttering something in his mouth, with a pious and solemn attitude.

Qiankun and these people also came to these ice sculptures, and a sense of grandeur suddenly appeared in his heart, as if he saw their shadows again between heaven and earth.

Li Shiyi saw that everyone had arrived, so he walked in front of everyone, and several Dharma protectors also nodded, signaling that everyone had arrived.

Li Shiyi looked at everyone solemnly and said loudly: "Today is our sacrificial day, I hope that no matter where you are in the future, your heart will always stay here." Abide by the ancestral teachings and never forget your duty. ”

After speaking, Li Shiyi inserted incense into the offering table in front of the first ice sculpture.

The others also looked at the statue of the sage, their expressions solemn, and they did not leave for a long time.

"Patriarch, why are there only thirteen of these statues?" Qiankun counted the number of statues, and when he was puzzled, he asked.

Li Shiyi smiled and explained to Qiankun: "We, Linghai, only choose a patriarch once every three hundred years, so it is only thirteen statues now. In the past, we did not have a patriarch, this custom was set four thousand years ago, after the death of the patriarch, the dragons were leaderless, but we still had to wait three hundred years before we could choose the right person. ”

"Before choosing the patriarch, you must give the previous patriarch a name, including four good ones, three evil ones, and one flat one."

"The beauty is: Kaitai is safe, and Di Tong'an is said to be sacred; The traces of the Guangzong Bo, the belly is wise and slightly Hong; Devoted to blood, stick to generosity; Discerning and thinking, emphasizing the ability to speak. ”

"The evil slander is: forgetting the ancestors and betraying the gratitude, making fun and fools and saying that they are wasted; chaotic and rude, disregarding the cause of the famine; Thirsty for killing, guilty of anger and ghosts. ”

After Qiankun heard this, he waited for Li Shiyi to continue, but found that Li Shiyi stopped abruptly here and stopped talking.

"What about Pingyu?" Qiankun asked hurriedly.

"That memorial seems to be suitable for any monarch, but they can't exhaust all their merits in one word, so almost all the patriarchs who can get the mediocre can get the good one." Li Shiyi responded lightly.

"This plain saying is, the warp and weft are sorrowful, and the middle road is sad."

Qiankun came to the two statues and pointed to their statues: "Patriarch Li, what does this one mean to be wasted and one to be wasted?" ”

Could it be that in a place like Linghai, where the ancient road still exists, there has also been a faint master?

Li Shiyi looked at their statues, his eyes were full of melancholy, and he sighed: "Their original intentions were not wrong, but in the end, one caused the Linghai to be slaughtered, and the other refined the forbidden art, the Divine Corpse Gu." One who causes misery to his own people, and the other who creates evil things to bring evil to the world, can only give them evil deeds. ”

Qiankun nodded, and no longer asked about these sad things about Linghai.

Li Shiyi looked at the statue nicknamed "Lie", with a surname Lin written on it. For a moment, a warm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and at this moment, it was like a scene of winter snow melting and everything recovering.

"He is the one who opened up a piece of peace for our spiritual sea, although it is only five hundred years, we are also content."

After listening to Li Shiyi's words, Qiankun also became interested in the martyr king in Li Shiyi's mouth, and stepped forward and asked, "Patriarch, can you tell me his story?" ”

Li Shiyi sighed and said: "Back then, the Fierce King Lin Weiwang was alone, blocking the surging Frost Iron Cavalry in front of the Sword Kingdom, defeating the elite of the royal capital, making him frightened, and his reputation is still praised to this day. ”

"In this battle, Muzhou was spared from slaughter, and it also stopped their ambition to continue to rush to Linghai in an attempt to wipe us out."

Yu Jingyao and others also came to the statue, their eyes were full of hope, and they smiled with emotion: "It is these sages who have opened up territory for us, and our generation can now avoid the suffering of war." ”

"But is it really worth it for us to be burdened with monstrous infamy and trapped here by the breath of death?" Ryan was very pessimistic, raised his head, stared at the statues with his eyes, and sighed.

"Alright, let's get started!"

Li Shiyi took the lead in kneeling in front, Lu Sheng and Geng Yangqiu also learned from Li Shiyi to kneel gently, and Yu Jingyao and Lai An followed.

The first worship is to worship heaven and earth. Heaven and earth can't last long, but what about people?

The second prostration, worship the aspirants. Men of lofty ideals spill blood, and decide to take the survival of thousands of people in the world as their own responsibility, and they are not afraid of death.

The third worship is to worship the sages. There are also sages who opened holy miracles, and there are still high-ranking scholars.

At the end of the ceremony, everyone stood up and looked at the statue of the sage, in awe and silent.

Li Shiyi walked in front of everyone, his expression was excited, his face flushed, and he seemed to be trying his best to suppress the surging in his heart. He turned his head and looked at the crowd, the emotions flowing from his eyes, with infinite remembrance.

"Thank you, this time the sacrificial ceremony, we completed it together!" Li Shiyi finished this sentence heavily, and his hanging heart was also settled.

Everyone was also very happy, looking at each other and smiling, and then their eyes were full of tears, this scene made them wait too long.

Thoughts, drifting back to the past.
