Morning Glory, the Han Girl of the Bright River. Slender hands, zaza lanes. All day long, sobbing like rain. The river is clear and shallow, a few times different from each other? The Qixi Festival has passed, and the belated wishes of the white are blessed: May a lover eventually become a family!

..........................................................................................................................................................................................

In the early morning of the third day, the oriental fish belly is white, a wisp of morning light slowly dyes the eastern sky, under the shroud of the morning light, the grass and green trees with dew, gradually stretching the lazy branches, the crystal dew gradually turns into a faint mist, the whole Los Angeles is hazy and illusory, the silent night has passed, the sleeping birds and insects in the grass, are awakened by this morning light, and the morning light makes a pleasant chirp, exuding vitality everywhere.

It's the beginning of another day, and it's a sign of a new beginning.

The alliance needs to sacrifice to the sky and the earth, although these were rejected by the cattle and cows, but the simple ritual process still has to go, according to the ancient principles, the place of the sacrifice to the sky and the land must be selected in the suburbs, which is called suburb.

Early in the morning, the ox cow was woken up by Zhuge Xiao, put on a sacrificial line, wearing a dress embroidered with the sun, moon and stars, mountains, rivers, flowers and birds, covered with a dragon coat, wearing a crown, with a big gui inserted in his waist, and holding a town gui in his hand, the town gui was engraved with a sacrificial text, leading the heroes, out of Los Angeles, to the suburbs have already been built in front of the altar.

The altar was originally divided into two, respectively, the round mound of the sacrifice day and the square mound of the sacrifice ground, which was the symbol of the round heaven and the place, and the sacrifice was carried out respectively, but due to the opposition of the ox and the cow, a compromise method was made temporarily, the altar was made of loess, a total of three layers, each one zhang and one foot high, together into three sheets of three feet, meaning thirty-three layers of heaven, the first layer is a square structure, representing the square mound, the second layer is a circular earth platform along the inside of the edge of the square, representing the mound, and the third layer is the main platform of the sacrifice, which is slightly smaller and circular, and on the four sides of the square earth platform, each repairs a step that extends to the top of the altar, so that people from all directions can climb the high platform。

Around the high platform, sacrificial livestock have been prepared, as well as some firewood and grass built high on the high ground.

The ox bull led the leaders of the various forces to ascend the high platform, and the rest of the people stood around the high platform, the ox and the bull and the male stood on the southeast side of the high platform, facing the west, in front of the male was a huge confession, a huge three-legged copper incense burner was placed in the middle of the confession, and a bundle of thick sandalwood was placed next to it.

The scalper bull led the crowd to burn incense and pray, then raised Zhengui and began to recite the sacrificial text: "I am born in the next life, between the grass and the field; May the emperor and queen of heaven gather the heroes of the world today, make an alliance with blood, fight against danger together, and sacrifice heaven and earth. ...... I swear to heaven and earth today, and heaven and earth will not tolerate anyone who violates the oath! The Holy Spirit is not ignorant, and its example is acceptable! ”

Immediately, the heroes under the high platform began to slaughter the animals, placing them on the first and second high platforms, respectively, and the blood of the slaughtered animals was contained in bronze vessels, and placed on the confessions on the third high platform.

Subsequently, the vocal music sounded, accompanied by the vocal music, a golden helmet and gold price, as if the people dressed as gods, separated the people, went up to the three-story platform, sat high behind the confession, and enjoyed the worship of the heroes, which was the image of the emperor played by the living, called "corpse"

The ox and the ox led the crowd to offer the blood of the livestock, and then offered five different kinds of wine, which is called "Wuqi" on behalf of the meaning of the perfection of all things, and then the "corpse" gave the rest of the wine to the males, called "blessing" Immediately, the vocal music stopped, the "corpse" quietly descended from the high platform, the heroes lit firewood on the second high platform, and burned the corpses of the livestock, which was called burning, which meant to let the emperor of heaven above the heavens smell the smell of sacrifice;

At this point, the procedure of sacrificing to the sky and the earth is completed, although under the vigorous refusal of the scalper, a lot of red tape has been saved, but the basic cutscene still has to go, this time, it has been half a day's work, it is noon.

Then there's the main event - the blood alliance.

The blood is an alliance, slaughtering the blood of livestock, or smearing it on the lips or drinking it, in order to swear an oath, but the best thing is to kill the white horse, take the blood of the white horse, or smear it on the lips or drink bitterly, the white horse was regarded as a great evil thing in ancient times, and the killing of the white horse represents the good fortune and avoidance of evil, and a good omen.

The white horse was ready to stop, but when the white horse was killed, there was an accident, and the host of the White Horse Temple, Master Huineng, led a group of great monks to stop in front of the white horse, and did not let him be slaughtered.

Their reasons are not only sufficient, but also reasonable, and there is no room for the slightest refutation.

Master Huineng's reasons are: first, the scriptures of the Western Buddha are carried to Middle-earth with a white horse, settled in the White Horse Temple, and it is also the origin of the name of the White Horse Temple, since then Buddhism has been developed in Middle-earth, if the White Horse is killed today, not only will the face of the White Horse Temple be swept away, but it is also a great disrespect to the Buddha.

Second, the first of the five precepts of Buddhism is not to kill, and not to kill not only includes not killing living beings, but also does not include not eating and killing living beings, they are willing to join, but they cannot drink the blood of livestock to swear, and the precepts of this religion cannot be violated.

This time, the two sides are frozen here, although the heroes are indignant, but they can't come up with a reasonable reason to refute each other, although in the small world, found the sealed Brahma Buddha, for these monks are not very welcome, but, in the monk led by Master Huineng that magical, like the ability of the formation, and in view of the courtesy of the scalper cow to them, but can not tear the face.

However, as time passed, the auspicious time had gradually passed, and it was seen that this bloody alliance was about to be stopped.

Some anxious heroes began to forcibly rush forward and slaughter the white horse, Master Huineng saw that things were not good, shouted, led the monks to surround the white horse, and put out the magical formation, and kicked the heroes who tried to rush in one by one out of the formation.

Obviously, Master Huineng is also very measured, and he did not appear in the phantom of the big Buddha in the small world, nor did he mean to hurt the heroes, but there was no good mouth to scold each other, and there was no good hand in fighting.

When the two sides saw the red flag, the heads of the various forces who were originally reserved gave up and drew their weapons one after another, and a big war was about to break out, and the alliance was about to turn into a bloody conflict.

"Stop it!"

The scalper was really angry, he was originally full of ambition, and he was going to control the power of one side today, but just when he was fantasizing about showing his strength, there was such a thing, how could he not call him a nest fire!

The scalper turned pale, stopped the two sides of the confrontation and said: "Look, you are all heroes of one side, what have become of you now? It's just a bunch of street brawlers!

After speaking, a coercion dispersed, and once the temperament of looking down on all beings and looking down on the world appeared, Zhuxiong immediately felt the surrender from his heart, slowly reined in his murderous aura, put away his weapons, and saw what he did.

The scalper is also a very headache, although Master Huineng is reasonable, but the alliance can't end up because of this.

He took a deep breath, calmed the anger in his heart, turned to look at Master Huineng and said, "Master, how do you think this matter will be solved?"

"Amitabha"

Master Huineng chanted the Buddha's name, put his hands together and said: "Alliance leader, it's not the old man who forcibly obstructs him, this matter is really difficult, God has the virtue of a good life, it's better to let go of these white horses! ”

"Talking about!"

Before the scalper could speak, among the heroes, an impatient leader snorted and said: "The auspicious time is about to pass, so you have to make a long-term plan! What are you not tearing down the stage from your heart? Don't you want to join? If you don't want to join, just put it forward and withdraw, why bother to come to this one! I think there will be a ghost fetus!"

This sentence is heart-wrenching, no matter how good Master Huineng is, he can't help but be furious: "Amitabha, the donor speaks carefully, what he said just now, the right should be in the past, if you talk nonsense again, don't blame the poor monk's men for being ruthless!"

After speaking, he poked the Zen staff in his hand into the ground, glaring angrily, coupled with his fat body, like an angry-eyed King Kong.

The scalper has a big head, and both sides look at the dead corner, but they don't flinch, how can this be good!

At this moment, Zhuge Xiaoshi Shiran walked over, smiling, and returned to the true color of the magic stick, and the scalper was relieved in his heart, and said secretly: "With this dog-headed military advisor to deal with it, there should be no big problem." ”

Immediately, he smiled and said, "What do you think of your predecessors?"

"Haha, Gao see, there is a compromise method, I don't know if you will adopt it?" Zhuge Xiaoshu smiled.

"Seniors don't have to mind, if you have something to say?" scalper Niu Niu made an eager look, but secretly slandered: "Damn, pretending to be a master here again!"

"In fact, it's very simple, the white horse can not be killed, the blood alliance does not say that the white horse must be killed, as long as it is livestock, and the white horse is the best, we can use other livestock blood instead, as for the monks of the White Horse Temple, there are five precepts in the body, you can smear the blood of livestock on the lips, and it is not considered to be a food, what do you think?"

At this point, time was pressing, but there was no better solution, and after pondering for a while, both sides agreed.

At this point, a grand meeting ended hastily, in this regard, the scalper Niu Niu has no other ideas, for this kind of formal thing, as an earthling, he is really not very cold, his only idea now is how to quickly absorb, this team of nearly 6,000 people, how to train, how to quickly improve their combat power.

And for the Zhuxiong, they believe in this very much, they believe in the freedom of arrangement in the dark, and believe that once this oath is violated, it may invite unwarranted disasters, this is their belief in cultivation, so although they don't say anything about it, they will inevitably be haunted in their hearts, and once there is any unpredictable danger in the future, they will think of what happened today.

Finally, by the end of the entire ceremony, the major forces did not break their promises, and each of them brought a hundred young cultivators in the lonely period, for a total of five thousand six hundred.

These hands, scalpers and cattle were handed over to Zhuge Xiao, and he was allowed to test his eight array diagrams, among them, Shen Tu was also arranged inside, and now Shen Tu has no other place to go, the mercenary group is disbanded, and according to his current vision, it is impossible to pull up a group of people to carry out this unpromising profession.

Shen Tu himself has reached the early stage of Jindan, and he has obtained the transmission of Emperor Yan's divine thoughts in the small world, and has experienced a series of life-and-death battles, and has reached the middle stage of Jindan, and his combat power is comparable to that of a cultivator in the late stage of Jindan, and his horizons have been broadened, so that his potential in the future has also been greatly improved, and he was directly appointed by Zhuge Xiao as the leader of the entire team and the captain.

Although Shen Tu was not very interested in this old liar, he also knew the importance of improving his cultivation and the magic of this old liar, so he readily agreed.

As for the benefits of promising the forces of all parties, the scalper is now alone, and the poor jingle sounds, of course, he can't take it out, and he can't help the materials for these people's cultivation, but fortunately, Zhuge Xiao has taken it all by himself, although this old liar is obsessed with the study of the Eight Array Diagrams, and doesn't care about other things, but to supply the daily cultivation of 5,600 people, and to ensure the improvement of their cultivation every year, it seems that this old liar still has other methods.

When everything is over, it is already the red sun falling in the west, the jade rabbit is rising in the east, and the heroes are only entering the city in pairs, on the way, the scalper Niu Niu quietly grabbed Zhuge Xiao and said: "Senior, although there is a name of the alliance leader below, but there are too many things now, so I can't train these people with my seniors." ”

Zhuge Xiao also knew that the current scalper Niu Niu had gotten acquainted with the mysterious city lord, and everything was complicated, and besides, there was no scalper Niu Niu, the nominal alliance leader, to tie his hands and feet, so that he had more room to play, so he gladly agreed.

Immediately, the scalper Niu Niu said: "Senior, there is still a matter of entrustment, there was an appointment with the twelve genera in the next, but now it seems that I am afraid that the contract will be fulfilled, and the predecessors will go down when the time comes, just inform me of my current situation, and tell them that this matter has been helped by the masters of the earth fairy world, so that they can prepare according to the plan at that time." ”

Zhuge Xiao pondered for a long time, then nodded in agreement, and then, the scalper Niu Niu informed the previous witch god of the matter, as well as the time and place of the meeting, one by one, and solemnly instructed not to spread it, so as not to cause unnecessary panic.

Subsequently, the scalper's mind turned to Huineng's body, in the small world, he had some faint thoughts, and now Ge Hong has told him a lot, he has gradually had the answer in his heart, but he still needs further truth, and the key to this confirmation falls on Huineng and the White Horse Temple.
