Chapter 552: Ready-made Offerings
The bone chain can't use magic power if it's not in her hands, but the sharpness is still there, and the most basic flexibility is still there, so he took advantage of it.
At this moment, a red bird suddenly flew in front of the convoy.
Everyone was blown by the blizzard and couldn't open their eyes, and not many people noticed its appearance. Even Yan Saburo only noticed a touch of red going straight into the sky.
Chitose whispered in his ear: "The projection of the fire canal." “
The fire canal is a legendary spirit bird that has the ability to drive away the wind.
"However, if you want a projection to dispel the storm, you have to pay blood. Chitose sighed, "This trip to the west, King Wei didn't pay out of his pocket...... What a waste!"
Yan Saburo's state of mind was very heavy.
King Wei is surrounded by talents, and he can deal with any emergencies, and even a sudden snowstorm can be calmed down.
In this world, there is really no shortage of capable people.
After less than half an hour, the wind was not as strong as before.
After another cup of tea, the storm stopped, and even the dark clouds in the sky dispersed.
For the rest of the convoy's life, everyone's faces were shocked.
Yan Saburo had already taken advantage of the chaos to sneak back to his car and shook his head at He Xiaoyuan: "It's too late." ”
He didn't have a chance to get on the cart.
Not far away, a small guy muttered, "It's over, it's over, there's a cart full of meat!"
The other person was also apprehensive, but blurted out: "It's as if you could have eaten meat." ”
"Huh?" along the way, he was not qualified to eat meat, "yes." ”
He Xiaoyuan didn't have the relaxed attitude of these two people watching a play, her face was gloomy as if she was about to drip: "It's bad." "This stone shattered all their plans!
Yan Saburo also stared at the deep pit smashed by the big stone on the cliff, and his eyes kept rolling.
It's getting closer and closer to Red Crossbow Peak, but the plan is unexpectedly frustrated, what should I do next?
Chitose's voice sounded in his ears: "In a hurry, King Wei is more irritable than you. ”
What he said was, after all, King Wei wanted to cross the Red Crossbow Peak. Yan Saburo let out a long breath: "Let's keep an eye on the three stewards." ”
At this time, there was a lot of noise in the convoy, and the sudden wind blew away several carriages, and even people and materials fell down the mountain wall. There are also people who are injured in the carriage, and the sound of calling for doctors to go for treatment is endless, not only in the Yao family.
He Xiaoyuan and Yan Saburo were therefore busy, and they could walk the entire convoy in a bright light.
Yan Saburo had just finished bandaging a wounded man, and when he looked up, he saw the third steward hurriedly running towards the front of the convoy, and the right sleeve was still oozing blood.
He was also injured, but can't wait to deal with it.
......
"What did you say?" Wei Wang patted the case, "which car fell?"
"Two carts of meat. "It's cold, but Yao Liyan still broke out in a cold sweat on his back in the face of Tianwei," the boulder was blown down by the strong wind, and unfortunately knocked out two carriages. My steward came to report that it contained the sacrificial creatures, including two pigs, three live sheep, and six roosters. ”
The local guide said that a pig, two live sheep, and three roosters were used to sacrifice the red crossbow. In order to prevent the livestock from dying of disease, the convoy has been prepared for each kind of convoy, who knows that people are not as good as the sky.
"What's the point of putting them all together? It's good now, it's been served by a stone!" King Wei clenched his fist and smashed it on the table, "bang", his hand hurt!
Who would have expected a sudden natural disaster? Yao Liyan smiled bitterly. But the matter fell into his hands, and he could only bear it and come forward to confess.
If it had been another official, King Wei would have cut off his head long ago. It's just that this is my grandfather...... King Wei was so angry that his chest tightened, he stood up and walked back and forth in the car, and asked in a rough voice, "Do you have to sacrifice living creatures?"
The local guide knelt in the corner, his head on the ground quickly, but still replied, "It must be a living sacrifice." ”
"What if not?" the king wrapped his ermine fur tightly. This damn snow-capped mountain is too cold, and he still feels frozen with a charcoal basin lit in the car.
"Once upon a time, when a caravan crossed the Red Crossbow Peak, the live deer used for the sacrifice ran away halfway, and they were reluctant to sacrifice horses, so they used cured meat instead. The guide stammered, "As a result, the rock formation under his feet collapsed as he crossed the mountain, and most of the caravan fell to his death. ”
"It's just a coincidence. King Wei sneered, "The so-called red crossbow is not just a rock fire monster, what kind of god is it!"
Red Crossbow Mountain is also in the boundary of the Wei Kingdom, and the mountain monsters actually divide the territory to collect sacrifices, even if the king of a dignified country wants to pass, it is no exception, which originally displeased the Wei King. Now that he heard that this thing was still picky, he was even more unhappy.
Now is not the time to gas. Yao Liyan wanted to open his mouth to persuade him, but King Wei was already very impatient and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, change to a horse on top, and you will be a cheap monster." ”
"Yes. "For the whole convoy, a few horses is not a big deal, it's a big deal to let a few servants come down on foot," the guards caught a few pheasants in the forest last night, and the ministers sent people into the mountains to hunt live deer and live sheep. "That's how we put together a three-piece set of large, medium and small.
King Wei nodded.
Yao Liyan was about to retire, but King Wei shouted to him again, "Slow!"
"Hunting depends on luck, if you don't catch it, do you have to stop the whole convoy and wait for the sacrifice?"
Yao Liyan cautiously tested: "Then what does the king mean?"
"Isn't there a ready-made one?" King Wei said with a smile, "The spy caught last night has not yet been dealt with, so you can sacrifice him and use it as waste." ”
Yao Liyan was overjoyed: "The king is wise! It just so happens that this Hongming's size is about the same as that of a goat." ”
"Also, heighten vigilance. King Wei frowned, this trip to the west was too unsmooth, and he stumbled for hundreds of miles, "There is no room for loss in the sacrifice, and there is no room for loss in crossing the Red Crossbow Mountain!"
......
Due to the damage to the vehicle, despite Wei Wang's three urgings, the convoy was still suspended for two hours before hitting the road.
Seven or eight carriages were completely damaged, and the personnel and materials on the carriages had to be transferred to other carriages, and He Xiaoyuan's carriage was also squeezed into four or five people.
It was snowy on all sides. As you know, the fleet is getting higher and higher these days.
It is already nearly 2,000 meters above sea level, and the temperature of the snow-capped mountains in winter is as low as more than 30 degrees below zero, and the living people can't last too long outdoors.
Bad weather hindered the progress of the humans, but fortunately, the Snow Eater had faithfully carried out its master's instructions and cleared the way for the convoy. God didn't make any more troubles this time, and it was sunny until the afternoon.
He Xiaokite was not idle. Finally in the same car with the doctor, the other few people seized the opportunity to ask about the disease, from the old cold leg to how to treat the cough.
