Volume 3 [The Mystery of Longquan] 195: Sacrifice heaven and earth are full of broken corpses
() Seven minutes before sunrise, as soon as the hour arrived, the Taihe bell rang in the palace......
The emperor drove to the Temple of Heaven and Earth, and dozens of miles of long streets were isolated by the Praetorian Guards. The people on both sides were not allowed to talk or laugh, because this royal sacrifice did not allow for frolic. All the clans, Jueluo, ministers, and officials followed the honor guard with a serious face, and a large number of honor guards protected the front, middle, and back of the procession......
The bells stopped, the drums played, and the ceremony officially began. At this time, the Temple of Heaven burns calves in the southeast, hangs lanterns in the southwest, incense and candles are around, and the smoke is ethereal, giving people a very mysterious feeling.
The palace messenger in the Temple of Heaven has begun to kill pigs and sheep to welcome the emperor god. The sacrificial process officially began with the Emperor Welcoming God. According to past experience, this series of ceremonies needs to last for three days.
But just as the emperor and the dragon were finishing their jade silk and preparing to enter the palace, 'poof, puff!' out of nowhere fell a few stumps and severed arms, and finally fell a shirtless man's stick. 'Bang Dang' slammed down on the sacrifice, and at first glance, there were four big words written on the man's stick's chest: The Witch is coming.
This sudden situation shocked everyone present, and the emperor was so depressed that he rolled his eyes and fell into the arms of His Royal Highness the Prince......
The accompanying minister hurriedly shouted: Come on, there is an assassin, hurry up and escort......
As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen young generals in armor poured in, protecting the emperor and others in the middle. After some investigation, it was determined that there were no idle people waiting to enter. But what kind of prank was this broken corpse?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered that the Imperial Doctor stay and the others would return the same way. Today's worship ceremony is over!
Seven or eight old doctors sent the emperor to the room where the Son of Heaven was temporarily staying to check his pulse. The prince clapped his hands and feet, waiting anxiously. After a while, an imperial doctor came over to him and said, "Your Royal Highness, please rest assured, Your Majesty is just frightened. The ministers will prescribe a few pairs of medicine to help His Majesty suppress the shock and calm his nerves, and he will wake up soon!
When the prince heard this, his hanging heart was put down. He hurriedly walked out of the room, came to the place where the incident just happened, and said to the group of generals: What are you all doing to eat? The ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens is related to the fortune of my Ming Dynasty, and such an unlucky thing can happen on such a major day, what should you be guilty of?
The generals apologized in unison.
Can death solve the problem? Quickly find out who is disrespectful to the Son of Heaven. Grab it and kill it!
Yes, sir!
The crown prince sent more than a dozen generals and asked the ministers around him: What do the ministers think about this matter?
Prime Minister Zuo stood up and said: According to what the old minister saw, this matter should have been deliberately done by the demons of the demon world. Therefore, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also requested to appoint good generals as soon as possible to bring the demon demons to justice.
At present, there are very few people left who can recruit from the government and the opposition. Since it was the demon demons in the demon realm who did the evil, it was obvious that the immortal soldiers had to be used. At this moment, where can I go to find the right person? The prince couldn't help but worry......
The prime minister prompted: Your Highness, don't I still have a Huguo Temple in Daming? There are many talents in the six major Zen temples, and there won't even be a few demon disciples, right?
The prince was deafened, clapped his hands and praised: "Yes! How can I forget the Taichang Temple? Come on, hurry up and get ready, I want to go to the Taichang Temple!"
That night, Prince Ryuzo and Taichang Temple Qing Qiu Yu met at the Taichang Temple Palace. After the prince's statement, Master Qiu Bo had already understood his intentions for coming this time. He stroked his beard and said to the prince: "Your Royal Highness the prince, I have heard about the chaos in the demon world. A few days ago, He Lingyun, the prefect of Lin'an, took the liberty of writing to the old man, begging me to help him eradicate the attack of the witch. But the matter implicated three sessions of the law
Then, if you take the liberty of fighting with the demon world, it will definitely cause a lot of turmoil. In order to avoid harming the innocent, it is inevitable to throw a rat bogey. So I didn't say yes. However, this group of demons dared to throw the remains of the corpses when the Son of Heaven sacrificed to the heavens, which is too rampant! Therefore, please rest assured, Your Highness, even if I Qiu Cheng unleash this old bone, I will definitely not let the demons of the Demon Realm go unpunished and endanger the Ming Dynasty.
The crown prince was overjoyed: Thank you, Master Qiu Xuan! The master is well aware of the righteousness and loyally protects the country, so please accept the late birth! After speaking, he will bow down.
Qiu Hao hurriedly picked him up and smiled at him: You are the prince, how can you bend your knees to others?
The prince got up and said: Although I am the prince, this place is Taichang Temple. My Buddha has clouds, and all sentient beings are equal. Master Qiu is highly respected, and the juniors should bow in front of you. In the face of national crisis, the master is willing to stand up, which is really a blessing for my Ming Dynasty. As a token of appreciation, you have received this gift!
Qiu Cheng became more and more fond of this child, and patted Long San on the shoulder: Hehehe...... I finally know why Your Majesty passed on the crown prince to you! You are really different from your brothers!
......
Then again, back to the day, it was early morning after Mo Na and Xian'er came out of Dragon and Tiger Villa, and the sky had not yet opened. They braved the heavy rain and returned to the wine shop they had booked, and saw that the gentleman had scalded a pot of wine himself, eating broad beans and waiting for them to return. The two of them hurriedly took a hot shower, changed their clothes, and sat down in that prominent position to talk to the gentleman again......
Although the gentleman was very anxious to know the news of Lord He. But watching the two aunts and grandmothers come back from Longhumen in the heavy rain, I can also understand the hard work of the two. He pressed back the eagerness in his heart, poured a bowl of wine for each of them, and asked, "I'm still worried that you won't return!
The two girls both shook their half-dried long hair and said: No, the head of that family said that Master He was no longer in Longhumen......
The gentleman looked at them in some surprise: "It's no longer in Longhumen?" What does this mean? Could it be that Master He has really ......
No, don't worry! He's not dead!!" Xian'er said.
The gentleman asked puzzledly: Then since he is not dead, why is he not in Longhumen again?
Mo Na said: I don't know if what the head of the Dragon and Tiger Sect said is true or false, in short, this trip is nothing. After speaking, he took a sip of wine......
The gentleman was really shocked to see that she was so 'heroic'. I didn't expect this girl to be very old, but she drank so much. So another bowl was poured, and the bowl of wine was not finished. I heard only a scream outside......
Ahh
The sisters hurried out of the liquor store and saw several severed limbs in the middle of the street. Looking to the left, I saw a man with an unrecognizable face in the middle of the road. The human stick also used a knife to cut four bloody characters on his chest: The Witch is coming.
Several early risers around were trembling with frightening shock, and couldn't help but put their five fingers into their mouths......
Xian'er looked at the second sister with wide eyes and said:
W-What's going on?'Witch Strike' is clearly ......
Before Xian'er could finish speaking, Mona had already reached out to cover her mouth. dragged her back into the house and whispered: No one here knows me, but someone deliberately framed me. Xian'er, go and examine the wounds of the dead man for me, and see if anything is found. Now I can't show my face, I can only wait for you here.
Xian'er nodded, opened the crack in the door and slipped out. Unexpectedly, in less than half a pillar of incense, the street was already crowded with people. These people were terrified as they stopped to watch. I really can't tell why they are so contradictory, the more they are afraid of something, the more they can't help but look at it twice......
Xian'er dial
opened the crowd, rushed inside, lifted the hem of his skirt with one hand to cover his mouth and nose, and looked at the corpse with a centipede ruler with the other. When she saw the corpse, she couldn't find any clues. In order to avoid provoking criticism from the audience, she used the secret technique of bone shrinkage to 'bang' and disappear on the spot. This trick of changing people made the people present amazed. While they were talking to each other, a small figure with the size of a thumb escaped everyone's eyes and jumped out of the crowd from under their feet......
How's it going?' asked Morna anxiously.
Xian'er shook her head: It's nothing special, it's just chopped up and thrown out. I can't tell who did it! But if you look at your skin, you can tell that it has been soaked in rain, and it doesn't look like someone who has just died.
Soaking in the rain, Mona thought for a moment and said:
It only started to rain in Lin'an last night, so this person died last night? The person who died last night was only brutalized on the street today. It seems that my guess is correct, this matter is clearly aimed at my Demon Realm! Let's hurry back to Shengjie Mountain to discuss with the eldest sister!
The two said goodbye to the gentleman and hurried back to Shengjie Mountain.
After listening to what happened, Baili Xingyun pondered for a moment and said:
It seems that someone wants to kill the second sister!
Mona suddenly remembered someone: could it be ...... The last time I was in Qingxuguan, I thought about the child in her womb, and I spared her life......
Xian'er said: These are two different things, right? Zun Wumen has stopped a lot recently, and since Condensing Xiang is pregnant, it is not possible to take a child. Besides, this incident appeared in Lin'an City, and it has nothing to do with them! I guess it's Wu Hanmei's stinky woman! Last time at the heroes conference in Maoshan, they wanted to kill us and hang us on Maoshan to lure the second sister into the net. This time, it must be a trick they did again, trying to frame the second sister, so as to attract public anger.
It is certain that there is a conspiracy behind this, but it is in vain for us to guess without evidence. There was no progress in the matter of the Lambricorn Blade, so he ordered to go down and let all the disciples pay attention to the eastward direction of Zixiao and Sorrow. Nebula said.
At this time, Chu Yaowu entered the hall and asked to see him......
The second lady has not returned for two days, according to the dumb father-in-law, she took advantage of your outing the day before yesterday and went to Qingyuan to visit her grandfather!
After hearing this, Mo Na was furious and said, "Why don't you stop her?" Why did you come to report that she hadn't returned for two days? Go and get someone back for me! Why is this girl so disobedient?
Chu Yaowu was beaten up, and hurriedly arranged for the disciples of the Demon Realm to go to Qingyuan to find people.
'Wow!'
Suddenly, an arrow flew into the main hall and nailed it to the large pillar beside Drifting Snow and Nebula with a 'ding'.
Nebula walked over and pulled out the arrow, with a note tied to it. The note reads:
The disease suffered by Fan Shili and Baili Frost was the heart control technique of septic blood.
The sisters hurriedly came over and asked, "Sister, what is written on it?"
Xingyun was exclusive to this sentence, and was not interrupted by the sisters, and said silently to himself: Septic blood control heart control technique?......
When Lu Feiyan heard this, she hurriedly said: Isn't the septic blood control technique lost a long time ago?
Xian'er asked, "Fifth sister?" do you know this witchcraft?
Lu Feiyan nodded: I heard Master say that this blood septic heart control technique was introduced from Persia. At that time, in order to live forever, Emperor Yuan appointed Li Changlie, a Han man, as an official. Li Changyeol relied on his rejuvenation mastery to refine the Child Blood Pill, which can not only delay aging, but more importantly, it can regulate internal injuries and restore vitality. It once became the favorite of the government and the opposition, and even the harem concubines!
Later, the Persians entered Middle-earth. They saw that everyone in the palace was vying to take the child blood pill, so they disguised the Persian poison as the child blood pill and sold it in the palace. Trying to carve up Middle-earth with the Septic Blood Control Technique. In the end, Ming Zu rebelled, took advantage of the fisherman, drove away the Yuan army, and killed those Persians. Since then, this blood septic heart control technique has been lost, even if the recipe is still there, but there are no more people who can use the heart control technique!
