The most important national festival in Bayuan in a hundred years is approaching, and all the cities in the country are busy. Of course, the place of worship is in front of the royal palace of Badu City, and all the cities must hold a festival at the same time, and the city lord will lead the people to accompany the sacrifice.
It was at this time that a shocking piece of news came from Chiwangqiu. It is said that the Sect Master of the White Evil has ascended to the sky, and the Lord Xuan Sha has been out of the customs and will officially succeed the Sect Master, and the celebration will be held in the Chiwangqiu Sect Dojo, and the day is also the winter solstice this year. Since Chiwangqiu was preparing to build sect dojos in various places some time ago, the news was quickly spread by the disciples all over Bayuan.
Doesn't it mean that both the Baisha Sect Master and the Xuansha Lord will have to retreat for ten years, and then the next Sect Master of Chiwangqiu will officially succeed to the throne? Now that less than half a year has passed, how can Baisha have already soared to the sky?
This is not what Xuan Yuan said, nor what the two elders Gale Wind and Zhijie said, the venerable elders of Chiwangqiu just claimed that Bai Sha was no longer alive. The other Chiwangqiu disciples who don't know the inside story, of course, can't be like Bai Sha has been beheaded by the tiger baby, since Bai Sha has become an immortal, they naturally think that Bai Sha has ascended to the sky, so they all preach it to the outside world.
As for Xingyao, according to the Elder Venerable, he has decided to follow the White Shale. Bai Sha has already ascended to the sky, how can Xingyao follow? Although his cultivation is not weak, he is still far from becoming an immortal! There are also some good people who like to inquire about the truth, and some Chiwangqiu disciples explain according to speculation that Xingyao should be closed to life and death.
The so-called life and death is not a certain realm, but a vow. Xingyao should have sworn to follow the white shasers, either to ascend to the heavens one day, or to die in retreat, in short, never to appear in the world again. This surprised many people, but it was Xingyao's usual cronies who could understand it best, they were very aware of Bai Yao's status in Xingyao's mind, and it was not impossible for Xingyao to make such a decision.
As for the truth, and how shocked people were when they heard it. Maybe it doesn't matter, in short, Bai Sha is no longer alive, and Xingyao will not appear again.
Ascension to the sky sounds like a myth and legend from ancient times. Many people also had the luxury of imagining whether Chiwangqiu would hold a special celebration for the ascension of the White Devil, so that everyone could also witness how the immortal family ascended to the sky. But the news came so suddenly, Bai Sha didn't even say hello, and he had already sneaked up to the sky on his own?
Is it because the cultivation of the immortal family is mysterious and not known to the world, Bai Sha originally thought that it would be ten years later, and when the opportunity to ascend to the sky really came. Even he couldn't control it, so there was such a change?--There were many people who speculated so, but this unexpected change also disrupted their original plan.
Even if Bai Sha has ascended to the sky and the new sect master of Chiwangqiu succeeds to the throne, of course, the major forces in Bayuan will send envoys to congratulate and send congratulatory gifts. But the date set is too close, and the road is far away, and it is too late to send someone now, so I can only make up for the congratulatory gift afterwards. And the head of the major forces. They all have to go to Badu City to participate in the national memorial ceremony, and many people have even set off on the road, and they can't rush to Chiwangqiu anymore.
Not to mention the top forces in Bayuan, even if it is an ordinary tribal leader everywhere. On the day of the winter solstice, it is also inseparable from the national sacrifice ceremony in each city, which is a matter that has been set for a long time, and no one can send the most important person to Chiwangqiu to congratulate. Otherwise, it is not only a violation of promises, but also disrespectful to the Pakistani monarch and the country.
If the five kingdoms have not yet been unified, and Bai Sha is still in the world, everyone would rather confess to Shaowu than offend Chiwangqiu. Maybe I'd rather be absent from the national memorial ceremony, but also find a way to rush to Chiwangqiu to congratulate. But now the situation has changed subtly, the congratulatory gift must be sent, and the congratulatory envoy must of course be sent, but it is difficult to say whether it can be on the day of the winter solstice.
Of course, the leaders of the major forces in Bayuan are not fools, they have long heard that the celebrant of the national memorial ceremony is Lord Peng Keng, and Lord Peng Keng's is the husband of the new sect leader of Chiwangqiu, Lord Xuan Yuansha, according to the plan that has been planned for a long time, it cannot be regarded as not giving face to Lord Xuansha.
The people of the country and the leaders of various tribes decided to participate in the national memorial ceremony as scheduled, and those who rushed to Chiwangqiu to participate in the new suzerain's ascension ceremony were the high-ranking monks of the major sects.
Why did Xuanyuan decide like this, but Huwa thought it was a good idea? Because this is what a cultivation inheritance sect should look like, and the Chiwang Hill that Bai Sha Xingyao was in charge of in the past was not normal. Regardless of whether Xuan Yuan has this ability or not, she has no intention of becoming another Bai Sha, and the change of Chiwangqiu will start from the day she officially succeeds to the sect master.
In a sense, it is precisely because of the existence of Xuanyuan that the inheritance of the sect of Chiwangqiu has been preserved, and the peace of the Baizhi clan has also been guarded. If it weren't for her, what would the conflict between Huwa, Bai Sha, and Xingyao eventually turn into, and whether it would bring ruin to Chiwangqiu and the people of the Baifang clan, this is something that no one can predict.
Xuanyuan hated Bai Sha, otherwise he would not have run away from the mountain in the first place. There are many people in this world who have hated others because of various circumstances, but when they are finally in the same position, they often become the kind of people they once hated. But Xuanyuan doesn't, this is the state of mind of the Dacheng monk.
It can be said that in addition to the tiger baby, fate, shrike, and elder age, whether they have become famous, or unknown masters, as well as monks from various sects, will gather in Chiwangqiu on the winter solstice this year.
Of course, Shrike and Changling will participate in the national memorial ceremony, the relationship between these two masters and Shaowu and Pakistan is extraordinary, in the years of Huwa's absence, they have also replaced Huwa as the national memorial ceremony, and Huwa is the celebrant of this ceremony. However, the identity of the fate is very special, she is not only the "holy queen" established by Shaowu, but now she has become the god of national sacrifice.
When Shaowu ordered all the cities to prepare for this national sacrifice ceremony, he issued a royal order, and according to the promise of that year, he was officially ordered to be the god of national sacrifice, ranking after Taihao and before Yanzhao. That is to say, since this year's national sacrifice ceremony, the gods and spirits worshiped by the ministers and the people have already included fate.
This has never happened before, and in terms of rituals, no one knows what to do. Because in the previous ceremonies, of course, Shao Hao and Yan Zhao were impossible to be present, and they were both monarchs who led the crowd to sacrifice to the sky. But does she need to be present at this year's ceremony, and if she does, where should she sit?
Do you want to invite the fateful evil to sit on the altar, vacate a corresponding space on the left and right to symbolize Taihao and Yanzhao, and then let the young minister lead the ministers and the people to bow down and sacrifice to her? The wine of sacrificing to the gods and the heavens was originally poured by the master of the celebrants, and then handed over to the king to sprinkle on the ground. So this ceremony, is it going to let the tiger baby pour wine, and then the young man himself will kneel with a cup and sacrifice himself?
The festival was extremely important in that era, not to mention the national festival, which represented the orthodoxy and righteousness of the ritual law, and every detail had a special symbolic meaning, and it must not be messed around. And the person in charge of the ceremony procedure should be Peng Keng, the master of Xuezheng, and the others dare not squeak!
In fact, when Shao Wu ordered him to be officially appointed as the god of national sacrifice and placed it before the salt omen, he was already under tremendous pressure. Although the title of "Holy Queen" is extremely honorable, after all, it is also the nominal concubine of Shaowu, he not only offered his princess as a god, but also offered it in front of his ancestors, which may attract endless scolding.
Fortunately, the name of the virtuous monarch of Shaowu has long been spread, and after the unification of Bayuan, his prestige is even greater, and he can still suppress the scene, otherwise such a royal decree will not be complied with everywhere at all. The status and cultivation of the fate of the evil also made many people dare not speak out, but everyone will inevitably criticize it in private.
In this case, if the ceremony of this ceremony is not properly designed, even the official will be infamy.
Fortunately, Shaowu has a good brother Huwa, and Huwa happens to serve as the Xuezheng of Baguo, and letting Huwa be responsible for formulating the ceremony of the national memorial ceremony also diverts part of the pressure on Shaowu. This matter is too difficult to do, if the design of the ceremony is not satisfactory to the fate, it is to offend the god of the national sacrifice, but to blindly take the meaning of the fate, and make the people dissatisfied, it is not only to offend the king, but also to offend the people of the country.
This burden, now except for the tiger baby, I am afraid that no one can take it, no wonder Shaowu resolutely asked the tiger baby to be a national sacrifice ceremony, and others can't do it at all, even if it is shrike or elder.
Although Huwa has never been to the director of the official office, it is not that she will not be an official. His method of dealing with the problem was very simple, and he directly sent the deputy Xuezheng Hou Gang to Meng Yingqiu to ask him face to face: What do you want to do? The national memorial ceremony has been a rule for hundreds of years, and every procedure of the ceremony is very clear. And this year's such an important ceremony is a bit troublesome because of you, the god of national sacrifice.
Tiger Baby let the fate solve this problem by himself! Only he dared to speak like that.
In terms of identity, Huwa is not afraid of the name of the "Holy Queen" and the sect master of Meng Yingqiu; in terms of cultivation, Huwa is already the three turns of the Nine Realms, and she is above the fate, so there is no need to be afraid of her anymore; even if it is compared to the power and influence of the world, today's Huwa is probably not weaker than her, the so-called "god of national sacrifice".
But the god of national sacrifice that Shaowu serves is a fate rather than a tiger baby. Whether the tiger baby is willing to be the god of this national sacrifice is one thing, but whether she can do it is another. For the masters, everything should not only look at the immediate effect, but also look at the original cause.
I think that when she made this request to Hou Li, she was already the sect master of Meng Yingqiu, and Huwa was just a little kid playing with stones in the wilderness.
And now less than 20 years have passed, and the tiger baby has stepped on the so-called path to heaven in the world, and fate is still fate. It cannot be said that the cultivation of the Destiny Evil has not been refined, at least it has been transferred from the eighth transformation of the transformation realm to the ninth transformation of the transformation realm. This is already very good for a master like her, the path to heaven is extremely difficult, and it is impossible for everyone to be a tiger baby. (To be continued.) )
