A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 305: Sacrifice to Heaven and Pray for Rain

Under the exclamation of everyone, Ying Zheng swallowed the fried and crispy locusts in one bite!

Seeing him chewing locusts with his eyes closed and not saying anything about the taste, Shimiya looked uneasy and asked weakly.

"how?"

"Um…………"

Ying Zheng made a sound of unknown meaning.

Everyone was shocked to see that the monarch in front of them actually ate the locusts that everyone was shouting about. When Ying Zheng swallowed the insects, some people stared in disbelief, and some even retched. Each expression is worthy of consideration!

Wang Jian saw that Ying Zheng was silent for a long time, stepped in front of him, and asked softly:

"If your Majesty finds it really difficult to swallow, there is no need to force it. Your health is important."

At this time, Ying Zheng slowly opened his eyes. His expression was a bit complicated, but there was a rare hint of surprise in his eyes.

"The taste of this pest... is even better than I imagined! Crispy and delicious, there is an unspeakable aroma between your lips and teeth!"

After saying that, Ying Zheng burst into hearty laughter, then looked at everyone, nodded to Shimi, and then picked up a locust and ate it.

"You all have a try...you all have a try! It's really not bad! The taste of these insects is actually more fragrant than meat!"

Ying Zheng greeted the officials to taste it. These people hesitated for a moment, but did not dare to disobey the military order. They had no choice but to pick up the worms and hesitated for a long time without putting them in their mouths. On the contrary, Wang Jian, Meng Tian and others, without any hesitation at this time, also followed Jun Shang and ate the locusts!

Then came Shimi. When she swallowed the scary bug in one gulp, Li Xin who was standing aside almost vomited! The seemingly beautiful and dignified queen in front of her actually put such an ugly insect into her mouth! When Li Xin thought of the queen's white teeth tearing the locust's body, his whole heart was trembling and he even got goosebumps!

Immediately after, Shi Yi came forward to taste it. Seeing that even the female family members were brave enough to eat locusts, Li Xin had no choice but to bite the bullet and swallow a huge, golden and crispy locust with two big eyes staring at him. Go down!

He didn't have time to savor the taste of this strange thing. He almost swallowed the unfortunate thing down his throat while suppressing retching!

When Li Xin kept suppressing his churning stomach acid so as not to embarrass himself in front of everyone, the officials who ate the locusts actually let out a series of praises.

"I didn't expect these bugs to taste really good!"

“It’s delicious on the lips and teeth! Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside! This taste is really special!”

Several generals looked at each other and nodded in agreement!

The people watching below were really shocked when they saw this scene. The king of Qin, the queen of Qin, and the civil servants and generals of Qin were all vying to eat the frightening locusts! Still looking intoxicated! Although these people are timid, they can't help but be curious and want to try it!

When this group of people hesitated, I don’t know who said something

"The queen is so precious that she can eat it even when she is pregnant. We have only one life, so why not try it!!"

After finishing speaking, everyone swarmed forward and grabbed the locusts frantically!

Unexpectedly, the matter was resolved faster than expected. After trying such a beauty, the people who had been hungry for a long time began to rush to tell them that the locusts, which were originally a headache, suddenly became everyone's favorite exotic delicacy!

The bugs caught today were quickly eaten! No one can resist the long-lost aroma of protein. Even Shikiya, who tried it for the first time, was amazed by it!

Things turned around quickly. The mage persisted on the altar for three days without eating or drinking without any injuries. At noon on the last day, a rare total solar eclipse unexpectedly ushered in!

The sky was clear and the sun suddenly turned violent, and everything was completely silent. Everyone witnessed this spectacle and watched helplessly as the sun hanging in the sky was gradually shrouded in a black shadow until it was completely invisible!

"The Tengu is eclipsing the sun! The Tengu is eclipsing the sun! This is a sign of a catastrophic disaster! A catastrophic disaster is coming!!"

The common people were naturally frightened when they saw this vision. Before anyone could comfort them, some people began to spread lies and scare themselves and fled in all directions!

Shimi naturally understood that this was a natural phenomenon. When everyone, including Ying Zheng, showed a hint of timidity, she still straightened her back and looked calmly at the mage doing the magic on the altar!

It was dark all around, and it looked a bit weird indeed. Even the sounds of insects and birds were gone! In the past, the five stars gathered together at night, but this time it was during the day!

"Queen! Can you lend me a helping hand?!"

The mage let his hair down, waved his whisk in his hand, and called Shimi.

"The Queen is the mother of the Qin State. She will surely move the heavens to send rain and save the current situation!"

Shimi had a jade pendant in her sleeves. Although she didn't know how the old man wanted to use her Pisces jade pendant, she walked up to the altar calmly and calmly.

Everything was like a mysterious sacrifice. When Shimi calmly placed the jade pendant on the altar, the eyes of the old man who had seen through the world were still bright. He smiled and said

"This thing is unique in the world!"

Shiya stood in front of the altar and watched the old man continue to mutter. Although he was full of confidence, there was still no drop of rain that day.

The total solar eclipse came and went quickly, and soon the sun peeked out again.

Is it all in vain? Not even the Pisces Jade Pendant can help? When Shiya looked at the old man, he actually saw a hint of panic in him.

It’s over! This old guy slipped up at a critical moment!

But now that it has reached this point, there is no way to back down! A dead horse is treated as a live doctor!

Just watch Shimi take out the dagger that Ying Zheng gave her at the beginning and cut her finger violently!

The blood dripped on the Pisces jade pendant, and soon blended together along the lines of the fish.

At this time, Shimiya was not thinking about the way back home, but praying to the Pisces Jade Pendant.

"If God is merciful and our country, Great Qin, should not die, please let it rain heavily to revive all things and save all living beings!"

The sun hanging above the head was slowly returning to its dazzling light, and the temperature, which was still a bit cool, began to rise again. When everyone felt that there was no way to change it, and even praying to the sky to pray for rain, something unexpectedly appeared from the distant sky. A thick dark cloud came, then thunder came closer and closer, and a strong wind blew.

"It is going to rain!"

Shimi looked up at the sky, and as she was watching the total solar eclipse slowly recede, a drop of rain hit her face.

"It's raining!"

She was so surprised that she raised her hands and shouted to the sky

"The rain is coming!!"

Then...the downpour suddenly fell, and in just a moment, it connected the sky and the earth, and once again awakened this land that was about to lose its vitality!

That was the heaviest rain Shikiya had ever seen since he was born! It’s like I can’t wait to water everything, I can’t wait to fill the dry rivers and lakes.

New life begins again...
