Rubik's Cube World
Chapter 1995 Sacrifice
Two months is not long, not short, as everyone gradually adapts to the changes brought about by the unification of the world, and the autumn harvest day arrives in a blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, the public servants who had received the task earlier took various tools and went to the field together with the peasants from the five lands of Zhao, Yan, Qi, Wei, and Han...
"This year seems to be a good harvest year." Looking at the thick wheat heads in the field, an old man with a wrinkled face couldn't help but said happily.
"That's right, I'm so ashamed of my Majesty. If it weren't for the seeds provided by the Majesty, and the tools leased to us on behalf of us, we would definitely not have such a good harvest." Another old man laughed.
"We have met a wise king." A woman who came over sighed with excuses.
"Yes, we have met a wise king." Others echoed.
"Okay, everyone, hurry up to collect the grain, calculate the amount early, and give it to the officials of the household department, so as to pay back the money owed to the king." After a while, an old man opened his mouth and said.
"That's it."
While speaking, all the people walked into the field, picked up the sickle, or rented the mechanical harvester from the government, and began to harvest the heavy rice in the field
And words and scenes like this abound in the original five lands of Zhao, Yan, Qi, Wei, and Han.
As for the newly merged Qin and Chu, they have not yet come out of the country's destruction and family destruction, so how can they have the heart to thank Ito Cheng?It would be nice not to curse him, but silently harvesting his spring crops in the fields.
In this way, nearly half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the weather gradually began to show signs of winter.
However, this morning, with the opening of the gate of Handan City, a large group of citizens of Handan City came out of the east gate of Handan City rubbing their shoulders. The amount of food and the harvest, while walking together to the wilderness not far northeast of Handan City.
One after another, you can't see the end at a glance...
And in front of this group of people moving.In the wilderness to the northeast outside Handan City, a high-rise, octagonal, huge altar built with bluestone, white mud, red rock, black ink, yellow marble and other stone materials in a special process is standing here.
The total height of the altar is about 1.1 meters, and each floor is about 27 meters high. They are all connected with each other by three inch-high stone steps, step by step.until the high platform.On the left and right sides of the steps, there are half-person-high firewood piles, together with the [-] steps, forming a corridor that can lead directly to the high platform from the bottom.
The widest part of the bottom layer is 18 meters, and it decreases layer by layer. When the highest layer is reached, the entire platform becomes a white marble platform with a diameter of [-] meters.The height of the seat is about [-] meters, and the width of the body is about [-] centimeters. It has a round belly, three legs, and two ears. The body of the tripod is cast and painted with other bird and animal patterns in Yang patterns. It is a simple and heavy green tripod.A circle was placed around the top platform of the altar in an open circle, but only eight of them were placed, and the last bronze tripod, which was obviously larger than the other eight tripods, was placed on the top of the altar. The center of the platform is facing the stone steps at the opening.
From the top platform down, 84 colorful flags are inserted on the eight-story platform below in the form of Zhou Gong's gossip, and they make a sound under the already slightly piercing cold wind.
In front of the lowest floor of the altar, there is an altar, on which there are three offering meat belonging to this era and grain seeds for five small rubs.There are two wooden shelves not far from the two sides of the table.A piece of ancient weapons that shone with a sharp and cold light under his eyes was inserted and erected, establishing the might of the soldiers.
On the open space ahead of the altar, a group of pretty girls wearing white sacrificial robes similar to those of later generations of priestesses were divided into two rows, standing in front of the altar, and piled up only one meter away behind them. The firewood blooms together, and the road leading to the altar is clip-shaped.
As for the position outside, it is the officials and wives of the three provinces who came from Handan City.Dressed in official clothes and fine attire, they were lined up in several rows according to the size of the rank, and they stood quietly at the front led by Zhao Ya, Zhao Ni, Zhao Qian, Wu Tingfang, Guo Xiuer, Ji Yanran and Ito Cheng, who had the title of wife. side.
Thousands of them wear bright armor and hold sharp hands.Soldiers with solemn expressions, as well as visible and invisible secret whistles and strict ninja guards within a radius of five miles ruled out possible enemies and escorted the entire ceremony.
In this solemn and solemn atmosphere, more and more Handan citizens rushed to the sacrifice site, and gradually surrounded the altar and the officials near the altar.
……
At this time, in the palace hall of Handan City, Ito Naruto stood up from the pool naked, and the so-called spiritual girl sent by the Moon God and selected by the secret method of the Yinyang family wiped her body with a clean cloth , and put on the clothes under their clothes, put on the crown, and strode out of the bathing hall.
"Why are you the only one here?" Looking at the Moon God waiting outside the hall, Ito Cheng frowned indiscernibly.
"This ceremony will be presided over by the Moon God." The Moon God replied.
"Where's Taichi?" Ito Cheng narrowed his eyes and said in a dangerous tone.
"The leader has lived in the underground palace for many years, and has never seen outsiders. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Luna leaned forward and said apologetically.
"Heh, he didn't come to see him when the tripod arrived before, and now he hasn't come to see him when the big sacrifice is about to be held. He's really arrogant! Do you want me to invite him personally?" Ito Cheng sneered.
For this kind of question, Luna couldn't answer it well, so he just kept silent.
"Very good." Seeing the moon god like this, Ito Cheng narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Because I have a serious business today, I will let you go first. After this grand festival is over, your Yinyang family must give me a piece of cake." Confess, otherwise he, Taiyi, the leader, would no longer need to exist."
While speaking, a terrifying murderous aura burst out from Ito Cheng's body and pressed towards Luna.
Luna's face was slightly pale, fine sweat gradually appeared on his smooth forehead, and he lowered his head respectfully.
"Hmph." A moment later, Ito Cheng snorted coldly, and withdrew the aura he was exerting on the Moon God.
"Let's go." Ito Cheng, who was walking towards the outside of the palace, said softly.
"Yes." Moon God exhaled secretly, and replied in a more respectful and low tone than ever before.Then he stepped forward, followed the figure of Ito Cheng, stepped out of the palace, sat in the four-horse cart that had been prepared earlier, and rode in the carriage, escorted by many soldiers, to the altar outside Handan City.
"This King Zhao is actually much stronger than Mr. Xiang and Mrs. Xiang estimated, and even gives me the feeling that he is even more terrifying than the leader's appearance when he showed his power. It seems that if this time is not handled well, my Yin-Yang family will die." Maybe we’re really going to be in big trouble.” On the way to the altar, Luna secretly thought of the moment he had experienced in the palace, full of worries.
Half an hour later, the carriage arrived near the altar.
"Come on, come on!" A sharp-eyed person shouted excitedly.
Then, there was a sound of "hula la", and the citizens of Zhao State, who were standing around the official road and stopped behind by soldiers with weapons, immediately knelt down spontaneously, bowed down with a look of hope and respect, and walked towards the slow speed. The running carriage sends its own awe.
Almost at the moment when these civilians knelt down, the sky had grown to be extremely thick, and the purple air dragon, which was not much stronger than the legendary real dragon, became a little more solid again, with its mouth wide open, swallowing clouds. , sending out a translucent dragon chant that is hard for ordinary people to hear.
"Yan!"
"If the people are like this, what the king does today will surely come true." Luna, who saw everything outside through the car window, said softly.
Ito Cheng's eyes were sleepy and he had no interface.
After going like this for another two minutes, the carriage stopped slowly.Then the spirit girl stepped forward, opened the car door from the outside, lowered her head respectfully, walked out of the car with Ito Cheng and Luna.
"I have seen the king." Seeing Ito Cheng, all the officials and soldiers present, as well as the surrounding civilians, immediately bowed to Ito Chengxing with the etiquette that suits their own status.
"Everyone is welcome." Ito Cheng waved one hand and said in a very calm voice.
"Thank you, my lord." Everyone thanked them, and stood up straight.
While everyone was receiving gifts, Ito Cheng and Luna came to the center of the venue, in front of a piece of land that had been wet with clean water.At the end of it, it is the altar placed in front of the sacrificial altar and the first stone step of the altar behind it.
"Luna, it's almost time, let's start." Ito Cheng said to Luna beside him.
"Yes." Moon God bowed, turned and shouted at the witches, "Fire."
"Yes!"
Responding crisply, two witches in white clothes came out of the queue and came to the firewood pile behind the witches. They made mudras with their hands, created a red-yellow fireball between their palms, and gently placed it on the firewood in front of them. on the heap.
"Whoo~"
In an instant, a raging fire quickly burned on the firewood pile.
Then the two kept moving, and lit the firewood behind all the witches one by one. After lighting all the firewood, they still stepped onto the altar without stopping, kneeling step by step, and lit the firewood pile on the platform until they were almost The last two piles on the eighth platform lit.
"Start the festival music." At this time, the Moon God shouted again.
Immediately, a burst of melodious ancient music "jingle ding ding ding" and the sound of heavy drums echoed over the venue.
In this period of ethereal, yet thick and boundless strange music, the rest of the maidens in white began to dance around the firewood used to worship the sky, a strange dance full of original and unique beauty, and sang a clear melody singing.
"Auspicious days come to Chenliang, Mu Jiangyu to the emperor. Caress the long sword and call on Yu Er, slamming and ringing to see Lin Lang. The Yao banquet comes to Yu Zhen, and the generals come to Qiong Fang. Hui delicacies steamed with orchids, cinnamon wine and peppers Raise the bow and shake the drum..."
Early in the morning, the public servants who had received the task earlier took various tools and went to the field together with the peasants from the five lands of Zhao, Yan, Qi, Wei, and Han...
"This year seems to be a good harvest year." Looking at the thick wheat heads in the field, an old man with a wrinkled face couldn't help but said happily.
