Chapter 80

Shen Xingsoul walked out of the bedroom and looked carefully around, there was still no figure of the white beast, under normal circumstances, the greedy and sleepy little beast was probably sleeping at this time, but there was no trace at the moment, Shen Xingsoul was a little anxious in his heart.

But if you want to look for it, I don't know where to look for it, not to mention the grandeur of the entire imperial capital But this pavilion is not a place where Shen Xingsoul can easily find it alone, Shen Xingsoul had to find the pavilion official who was in charge of receiving him, and after explaining the situation, let the family help him find it together.

The official of the pavilion here had just gone out, and Shen Xingsoul was sitting in the pavilion waiting anxiously, only to see a thief-headed little guy in the corner of the wall looking around, and after a while, he made sure that there was no one else in the courtyard, and then ran to Shen Xingsoul's side, and the little paw pointed at him with a aggrieved expression, silently accusing Shen Xingsoul of not taking it with him, so that it could only be hungry.

Shen Xingsoul saw the anxiety in the heart of the little white beast swept away, looking at the little beast's bulging belly, he should have gone out to find something to eat.

It's no wonder that Shen Xingsoul didn't bring it with him when he went out, he originally planned to come back after lunch, but he didn't expect to meet Steward Liu, so it was delayed.

Looking at the white beast's bulging belly, Shen Xingsoul knew that it was not necessarily anyone's kitchen that was unlucky.

Now that the little white beast is back, Shen Xingsoul hurried to find the pavilion officer, lest people be busy in vain, and when everything is arranged, it is already the middle of the night, and one person and one beast fall asleep on the bed.

The next day, Shen Xingsoul still came to the tavern yesterday to eat and drink, waiting for the figure he most wanted to see in the opposite inn, and the little white beast had been staying by his side to eat and drink.

However, a day passed, and Ziluan still didn't appear, and even Steward Liu didn't see it again.

Time passed quickly, and in the early morning of this day, everyone had just woken up, only to hear a bell ringing in the entire imperial capital.

When the sound sounded like a knock in everyone's hearts, Shen Xingsoul hurriedly got up, washed up and rushed to the large square specially built for this heavenly sacrifice ceremony.

The sound of the bell echoes to represent the official beginning of the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens, and when the bell rings, everyone will come to the square to gather, and when the second bell rings, those who have not yet come will be punished according to the crime of treason.

Hundreds of civil and military officials, members of various families, and even people in the royal family did not dare to slack off at all, and this ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens was extremely grand.

The square, which is nearly a thousand feet long, is already overcrowded, and in the center of the square is a special stone staircase, suspended in the air, as if reaching straight to the sky, and above the last stone staircase, there is an altar.

Under the stone steps, there are rows of seats, which are ready for the envoys of various countries and major families to sit on, and outside are some small families, they are not qualified to sit down, they can only stand to watch the ceremony, and the outermost people are the ordinary people in the imperial capital.

When Shen Xingsoul arrived, someone was already seated, he searched carefully, saw the figure of He Wushuang, walked over, and sat down in the seat next to He Wushuang.

He looked at the people around him a little, almost all of them were older generations and their juniors came to participate in this ceremony, which could give the younger generations a long insight, and by the way, they could get to know each other by only seeing each other.

When the second bell rang, the whole square was already overcrowded, but even so, it was still quiet, and everyone did not dare to make any sound, at this moment, a middle-aged man dressed as an official eunuch walked to the bottom of the stone steps and opened his mouth to read the sacrificial text written by the heavens.

This man was the priest of the ceremony, and was responsible for reading the sacrificial documents.

When he had finished reading, the third bell rang, and a man dressed in an imperial robe appeared, walking up the stone steps to the highest altar.

When he came to the altar, the fourth bell rang, the lord of the Great Xia country wearing the emperor's robe personally * incense sacrifice to the sky, the whole process, the square was silent, until the lord of the Great Xia country worshiped the sky after the completion of the worship, walked down the sacrifice to the sky, the fifth bell rang, it was already noon at this time, there were attendants holding the food box appeared, for those seats, set up a feast.

The sixth bell rang, everyone raised their wine glasses to worship the sky, and finally the seventh, eighth, and ninth bells rang one after another, and everyone began to pick up chopsticks and enjoy lunch.

When the nine bells are over, the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens will be completed, but everyone will not disperse for a long time, because next, it is the time for the younger generation to exchange and get to know each other.

The bell dissipated, and then the stone steps fell from the sky and automatically piled up together, forming a high platform of one zhang high.

On the high platform, there was a person standing at this time, dressed in a purple python robe, embroidered with a golden dragon on it, this person's facial features were upright, full of imperial energy, and there was a touch of fierceness in the depths of his eyes.

He clasped his fists and bowed to everyone, and said:

"Thank you for coming to my Great Xia Empire's Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, Xiao Wang Yesheng Song, thank you. ”

Obviously, the lord of Great Xia attaches great importance to Yesheng Ge, and at such an important moment, he is actually asked to preside over it, I am afraid that it has been determined that this great prince Yesheng Ge will become the lord of Great Xia in the future.

"Even if you enjoy the food, if I don't entertain you well, I hope you will bear with me. ”

After being simple and polite, Ye Shengge began to introduce the major families one by one, as well as the envoys of other countries, of course, Shen Xingsoul and He Wushuang, who came on behalf of the wild phoenix.

The front was fine, but when the word crazy phoenix was mentioned, the scene was a little embarrassing for a while, and everyone's gaze at Shen Xingsoul and the two was a little unnatural.

The mad phoenix is a legendary killer organization full of evil, and it is even more frustrating to kill innocents indiscriminately, and now the Great Xia Empire will actually invite the members of the mad phoenix to hold a ceremony to sacrifice the sky, which makes some families very dissatisfied.

And the envoys of other countries were very surprised by the word mad phoenix, just as the great elder said, the strength of the mad phoenix is not only reflected in the Great Xia Empire, the surrounding countries are still very afraid of the word mad phoenix.

Now that there are members of the Wild Phoenix coming to participate in the ceremony, I am afraid it is enough to explain some problems.

As soon as the eldest prince Yesheng Ge introduced Shen Xingsoul and the two of them, someone stood up, clenched his fists at the eldest prince, and said:

"Great Prince, I have long heard that the people of the Crazy Phoenix are all extraordinary, I don't know if I have the honor to understand it today. ”

The eldest prince's face was embarrassed, and on the other side, He Wushuang stood up and said contemptuously:

"I won't fight, I'll only kill!"
