Chapter 348 The Spirit Sacrifice Ceremony Begins
On the official road from Wanzhou to Yurong City.
A caravan is moving fast.
New rain in the empty mountains, crisp and fresh air. However, if you look carefully, you will find that the caravan's ruts are very light, and you can't see what the goods are.
The shopkeeper is riding a tall horse with a handle hanging around the horse's neck, which is not common among the eighteen weapons. And the shopkeeper's wife, who rides a horse by herself, does not have the vicissitudes of toil all year round, but has fair skin, young and beautiful.
"Lan Xin, do you want to take a break? This journey is non-stop." It was Nan Chan who spoke.
"No, time is running out, we must go back as soon as possible."
Tie Lanxin was notified by Zhe Yu.
It should be said that from the time Zhe Yu stepped out of Yanjing, a letter was brought by Li Jianping himself and sent to Wanzhou.
The content of the letter is very simple, "Yun Zhao may change, return soon."
In the beginning, the reason why Zheyu directed Tie Lanxin to study at Kunming Academy was to show her a bright way to avoid Tie Jin's ruthless persecution, and to be too anxious; Xin, can be alone in Yunzhao.
In Tie Lanxin's body, half of Yun Zhao's blood flowed.
He believes that the girl who has suffered from blind eyes and suffering since she was a child can understand the difficulty of the people of Yunzhao.
After receiving Zhe Yu's instructions, Tie Lanxin approached Nanzhang immediately. Of course, she wouldn't be so arrogant that she would be able to solve all the problems by going back. In fact, she kept Zhe Yu's advice to him in mind. The best way to prevent bandits from obsessing over her is to lure her for profit. In Zhe Yu's words, isn't being a general better than being a king of the mountain?
To this day, Nan Yang has seen the reality clearly.
Tie Lanxin wouldn't like him, she was full of eyes on the young boy who stood on the roof back then, gods and gods, Buddhas and Buddhas.
However, I fell in love with her after all, and there was also a decision between Zhe Yu and Baicaoshi.
Not only brought Nanzhang, but also several outstanding students that Tie Lanxin made friends in the academy.
Because of the large number of people, it was disguised as a caravan. Tie Lanxin offered to let Nanchao play the role of the shopkeeper, and she cameo as the shopkeeper's wife. This is the greatest decency she can give Nan Yang besides power.
Nan Yang put his hand on his forehead and looked into the distance, "Actually, there are still two or three days to go."
"Get over there early, deploy early. Oruka, they might need us."
Li Jianping listened aside, and couldn't help but nodded, it's worthwhile to support the young master. But with the young master's strategizing, will she need her help? Li Jianping's answer is no. He has almost blind trust in Oriha.
Nan Yang waved his hand behind him, "Everyone hold on, Yurong City is right in front of you."

What is the end of medicine? Is it witchcraft or metaphysics?
This is a question that Baicao Poetry pondered hard in her dream.
She has been asleep for a long time.
is actually conscious, but just can't wake up. That question has always troubled her.
Witch doctors have been passed down for thousands of years, and they are completely separated from doctors. Now witch doctors focus more on sacrifices, prayers, blessings, and manipulating people's hearts and creatures with witchcraft.
The former is reflected in "Da Zhu You Shu", while the latter lies in Gu insects or Gu spirits.
Now, she has obtained "The Chronicle of the Witch Lord", and there is a huge Gu spirit in her space—the poisonous toad.
This is very unscientific.
But if it can be used well, does it mean that she can control the spirit? This bold idea stimulated her, and Baicaoshi opened her eyes.
What I saw was Zhe Yu. He leaned on his cheek with one hand, his eyes were bloodshot, and his beard was green. It was obvious that when Baicaoshi fell into a coma, he was not doing well.
"Feather?"
"Shishi, Shishi." Zhe Yu grabbed her hand, put it on his lips and kissed it gently, "You finally woke up, do you know how long you slept, three days and three nights."
Baicaoshi struggled to get up, Zhe Yu supported her, "Wait, I'll pour you some water."
She didn't drink water for such a long time, he wet it with a cloth and fed her.
Drank several big gulps, almost choking.
Zhe Yu smiled, and gave her a smooth back.
"Outside, how is the situation?"
They made such a big commotion, took that book, and killed so many Gu worms, the people of the Snail God Sect will definitely not find nothing.
"Don't worry about it, it's settled."
Baicaoshi stared at Zhe Yu, this matter is of great importance, and he solved it lightly? Must have put a lot of effort behind it.
She stretched out her hand and touched his hard stubble, "My Yu Bao has worked hard, do you want to teach your wife how you did it. In the future, when madam encounters such a thing, she can also borrow her husband's wisdom deal with it."
She sips a wife and a husband, calling Zhe Yu's heart, and she is more happy than drinking Mudie tea.
Zhe Yu said: "I copied "The Chronicle of the Witch Lord" by hand overnight, and returned the original. Of course, I didn't borrow it for nothing, and even changed the original a little, but I don't know if their priests and ministers are capable. Discover."
Obviously, his actions and feet are extremely subtle, which is why he speaks so calmly and confidently.
Baicaoshi slammed, and the water almost spewed out. The husband is still the black-bellied husband, bull!
Zhe Yu raised his chin, "As for those Gu worms, after you fainted, uninvited guests came to the dungeon, they were all from Prince Pingzhao's residence, what do you think is a coincidence? Their attention was attracted by Prince Pingzhao's residence, No one bothers us at all."
Where did Prince Pingzhao’s Mansion come from? Baicaoshi knew that it was just Zhe Yu's trick to push Ping Zhao Wang's mansion to attract hatred, so that no one would suspect them.
You know, it is not easy to arrange all this in such a short time.
After it was done, Zhe Yu devoted himself to staying beside Baicaoshi, hardly closing his eyes. She was the most important thing to him.
"My husband is omnipotent. What about the grand ceremony?" Baicaoshi was very proud.
Zheyu smiled, "If it wasn't for my wife who cleaned up that huge toad, my husband wouldn't know where it is now. The spirit sacrifice ceremony will be held as scheduled, three days later, Yurong Mountain."
Picking up the quilt, Baicaoshi was about to go to the ground, "Yu Bao, I woke up, now let me guard you."
Zhe Yu pressed her shoulder, "Wait a minute, I'll get someone to bring you something. It's been a long time since I've eaten. Madam will sleep with me after eating, okay?"
Is that good? Like a small hook, Baicaoshi's face turned red unsatisfactorily.
**
While waiting for the sacrifice ceremony, Baicaoshi asked Plantago, why she would faint when she collected the poisonous toad.
Psyllium gave its own answer.
The appearance of Gu spirits may be unscientific, but energy conservation still exists. When Baicaoshi wants to take in a living body, she must release energy greater than the life body in order to do so. So her space is not omnipotent. If she wanted to take the grand master in, she would only be backlashed.
This discovery did not make Baicaoshi depressed, in fact, she was very excited. This shows that she can improve the storage capacity of the space by improving her internal strength and vitality storage. At that time, she will not only be able to earn Toad, but also a more powerful place.
When you encounter something you don't understand, ask Oruha for advice.
Zhe Yu's Gu Yunzhao didn't know all of the classical Chinese. If he couldn't explain it, Baicaoshi would ask the system.
Psyllium chinensis almost confessed her life because of the poisoned Baicao poem, and felt extremely guilty, so she gave great support to her hard work in learning the skills of witch doctor. Simultaneous interpretation sounds in the sea of consciousness, not only pronunciation, but also explanation.
Baicaoshi was surprised to find that behind the "The Book of the Witch Master" was the formula for controlling the spirit.
She wasn't sure if she could really control the spirit if she memorized it, but she decided to give it a try, just in case she could save her life at a critical moment.
**
The ceremony of offering sacrifices to the spirit was arranged for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
On the day of August 14th, the commanders and messengers of Yuluo Sect walked out of the underground city one after another and arrived at Yurong Mountain ahead of schedule.
and Zhe Yu walked behind the crowd, but Baicaoshi didn't see the real first floor.
In fact, she hadn't seen him for days. According to his understanding of Zhe Yu, he should be sent out to do important things.
Then, she found a ox-drawn cart, which seemed to contain some huge thing, covered with a huge red and blue contrasting cotton cloth cover.
Baicaoshi's heart tightened.
Listening carefully, there seems to be a chi chi sliding sound inside.
Could it be that this is the Gu spirit?
In the Snowy Land of Qi and the underground city, Baicaoshi saw three kinds of Gu insects, centipede, scorpion and toad.
Then, what kind of Gu spirit will it be?
The spirit sacrifice ceremony is held on the mountainside. There is a small square here, which is majestic and magnificent with white marble and marble.
The Snail Sect will be deployed here in advance. They erected wooden stakes depicting the totem of fish snails, and the patterns of fish snails were on the colorful flags, fluttering in the wind.
After it's ready, just wait until August 15th.
Si time, at the foot of Yurong Mountain, the chariot and guard of honor had arrived and were heading towards the foot of the mountain.
And in this guard of honor, sitting side by side on the walking chariot in the middle is the high priest and the ruler of Prince Pingzhao's mansion that he saw on the streets of Yurong City that day—Tie Jin, who inherited the throne.
Behind Tie Jin is the concubine who is pregnant with Liujia.
Wait, Baicaoshi recognized her, she was clearly Tie Yu's wife—Ruan Feiruo.
I haven't seen her for a year, and she is already pregnant with Tie Jin's seed.
Baicaoshi's chest heaved because of her emotional agitation. Such a dog man is worth chopping up and feeding to wolves.
Zhe Yu held her hand from behind, signaling her to stay calm.
"Welcome to the prince and the high priest."
The most honorable seat is reserved for Tie Jin and the high priest.
The fish snail God Sect Commander and all the messengers kneel down one after another, extremely pious.
Baicaoshi and Zheyu are also hidden in the crowd, but her posture is serious water skiing, and she has no loyalty at all.
The high priest spread out his arms, as if embracing the mountains, rivers and the earth.
"The hometown of Yurong, the stars are divided into wings. Lugu is surrounded by the blue and green, with rich things, heavenly treasures, and outstanding people. From the beginning of Pingzhao's ancestor Tie Hanyang, he was handsome and talented. When the son Jin was in charge, the public's elegance was spread all over the world. All the men of the fish and snails, in the peaceful and prosperous age, look up to the peace and blessings, and the only way to repay it with your body."
"Yu Chang delved into ancient medical techniques and obtained the secret method of the Holy Spirit to control beasts. I would like to dedicate it to my king. Create an immortal foundation for all generations, and protect the health of fish and snails for hundreds of generations."
Tie Jin also stood up, beside the high priest, full of ambition and high spirits.
"I have gained the high priest, and I am like a tiger with wings added. I am willing to work together with the high priest to create a foundation."
The sound of the horn of the fish snail sounded, and the sound shook the sky.
The green-footed mountain partridges and crested tree swallows on the trees on the mountainside were startled by the music, and flew away with flapping wings.
Then, there was a fish snail commander who said loudly: "Please Gu Ling."
The huge monster pulled by the ox cart walked to the center of the square. There were members of the Conch God Sect, and they lifted the cloth cover. What was contained in the cage was clearly a giant python. It is about five meters long and coiled into a hill.
The boa constrictor spat out a letter, with sharp eyes, scanning the surroundings, like a king visiting his territory.
Rao was mentally prepared, Tie Jin's pupils also shrank, and Ruan Feiruo exclaimed, forcing tears. She covered her eyes with one hand and covered her stomach with the other.
"Princess, don't be afraid, everything has a spirit, and the mighty python will protect the prince and protect you." The high priest spoke softly.
Si Ming said loudly again: "The ceremony of offering sacrifices to the spirit has officially begun."
There were only two messengers, who moved the cage down and pulled the bullock cart away. Then the venal python was released from the cage.
Since it is a sacrifice, it must be sacrificed for the enjoyment of Gu spirits.
What is the tribute of the clematis?
Eight messengers stand still from the direction of Qiankun gossip, each with a bamboo tube in their hands, and when they are released, they are centipedes and toads
and scorpions and earth dragons.
This time, not only the concubine was terrified, but the maids and maidservants of Prince Pingzhao’s mansion were trembling, and some people lost control of themselves. The soldiers of the army held the swords in their hands one after another. As long as the beasts attacked, they would fight back mercilessly.
The high priest sat on the ground, chanting words in the air.
"The holy spirit of Yurong shall protect Yurong. Let's make sacrifices!" Everyone can understand the first few sentences, but the rest are all spells.
A strange scene happened.
Those scorpions and centipedes went to attack the Welingboa, but they were all swallowed by the Welingboa. It seems to be proving its strength and determination to defend its territory.
Those Gu worms became its food.
The body of the venal python stands taller, majestic and majestic.
Although Baicaoshi is disgusting, but others can persevere, so she has nothing to fear.
Not only that, but she also discovered a mystery, that is, the spell of the high priest is exactly the same as the part of controlling the spirit in "The Chronicle of the Witch Lord".
Very good, she also memorized this paragraph.
Zhe Yu looked at Baicaoshi's profile, and the lady's face showed no fear, but arrogance?
"My lord," the high priest turned towards Tie Jin, "the Holy Spirit possesses powerful combat power, and our believers discovered new elixir when collecting herbs in Naqi and Yushu. They are very useful for improving the combat power of the Holy Spirit. Can get twice the result with half the effort."
Tie Jin's eyes sparkled, excitement mixed with tension, "What panacea?"
The high priest beckoned, and another messenger came with sacks. The sacks were scattered, and the sky was full of caterpillars.
"Look, my lord, this herb looks like insects but not insects, like grass but not grass. It can be said to be the essence of heaven and earth, and it is a miracle of creation. Use them to feed the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit will become stronger."
