The boy led the Hidden Eyebrows into another sanctuary next door, followed by the twelve elders. He pushed open a gleaming brass door, and saw that the hall was covered with silver and inlaid with ornate mosaics of pearl and jade. Throughout the hall are tall columns, carved with gold and lapis lazuli. The ivory walls here are covered with glittering copper lamps, and inside are huge wax cores made of seal fat. The honey locust wood incense jars in all directions are edged with pure gold, and are surrounded by gold tooth rings. The fat and fat of the sheep and the fat tail were burned in it as a fire offering for a fragrant fragrance.

Next to the altar is a huge copper sea more than half a man high, with four horns carved with four bulls with horns on their heads. The young man took the hidden eyebrows to the copper seashore and knelt down on her knees, and she had no choice but to do it. The twelve elders sang in unison to the sound of silk and bamboo played by the musicians in the corner, and at the same time reached into the copper sea from their right hands to dip them in water, and sprinkled them on the foreheads of the young man and the hidden eyebrows respectively, and the twelve people finished sprinkling them in turn.

They were then brought to the altar of incense, where their thumbs were pierced with golden needles, and the eldest of them was dipped in their blood seven times and thrown into the burning fire offerings.

In an instant, the flames became red and bright, scorching and steaming, and the tongues of fire licked the tall temple dome in an instant. The twelve elders exclaimed in unison, forming a circle around the incense altar in the midst of the hot sparks flying everywhere, prostrating themselves with their hands on the ground, and the fire was so fierce that it seemed to swallow all the people.

"The King of Eternity has established this covenant of blood, which is holy, inviolable, and unbreakable, for ever and ever. The eldest man stretched out his arms and shouted, and then he and eleven other old men knelt on their knees and recited the ancient tune, the cooperation of the twelve was seamless, this tune sounded tactful, peaceful, strong, firm, full of joy and expectation, just as the blue sky longed for the sun and fell in love with it, and the ancient tree longed for the spring and poured out it, and in this great hymn, the hidden eyebrow seemed to see a group of warriors in battle robes and crowns with swords and whips and horses passing by, passing through the wilderness and the sea, and there were dense clouds and fires circling around them day and night。

She couldn't control herself, and suddenly burst into tears, knelt on the ground and wailed, only to feel extremely sad in her chest, and her heart hurt······

"Yes, yes, O Queen with the crown of twelve stars," the old man squeezed her cold hand, "O regent of all the lands of Velogosa, you must not sleep any longer, we are too late. ”

"But this is not the latest, take your responsibility, do not run away from it, fight for it, shed blood for it, and sacrifice for it, for this is your innate mission, and it is the mission of our Yarons. "It is the highest honor for us to die for it, better than to live in the Outer Sanctuary without a Queen," said the other old man, who had a fist curly, and tears welled up in his cloudy eyes. ”

"But I ······"

"Don't be in a hurry, Your Majesty," the first old man nodded with relief, "Ancient riddles cannot be relieved in an instant, and the river of time for thousands of years cannot cross the of history in an instant, you need to spend the night in the washbasin to cleanse the past years of filth and filth, and this is only the first step in making you eligible for the mission, the Aarons will always help you and guide you until the King of Eternity comes again." ”

"And I," said the purple-black pigtailed young man, respectfully pressing the back of his right hand to his lips, word by word, "I am the patron of the Aarons, the builder of the Eternal Temple, the captain of the Princesses of the Deep, the crown prince of the city-state of Maurice, the Duke of Gondelore at the Storm, and your fiancé. ”

He uttered a long list of titles in a tongue-in-cheek language, which did not match his childish face, which in itself made Yin Xinmei feel incredible, especially when he finally called himself her fiancé in a conclusive manner, which made her unable to respond for a while.

"I'm sorry, I don't know your name yet, and I'm much older than you, and more importantly," she tried to keep her voice as soft as she could so that it didn't sound rude or provocative, "I made this Blood Pact with the Eternal King when I was a child, how did you get involved······

"You should believe Crown Prince Morris, a man's age is not indicative of his courage and bravery," the old man with a curly beard suddenly interjected, "Without him, the Arons would have been slaughtered in the endless conquests and annexations of the free city-states, and there would be no such temple, let alone the revival of your soul." Because you are the regent of all the lands, and the queen of many nations, he is fully qualified to be your husband, and to be the only king of Logosa. ”

Yin Xinmei was speechless, on the one hand, she was delighted to have a deep and subversive understanding of the fate and duties that had already puzzled her, and on the other hand, she felt deceived by the marriage contract that had been signed without her knowledge.

The boy seemed to read her thoughts, and whispered in a calm voice, "I, Remassa," and you will not regret it, for I was born to unite the kings of Logosa, and you are destined to be my property. ”
