Chapter 46

"Speaking of which, I'm working for your father now." At the dinner table, Liu Juexia said with a smile.

"For my current project, part of the research funding is sponsored by Changshi Technology."

The research institute is a place where seniority is ranked. He came back too soon. Although he is capable but has no qualifications, he can hardly apply for much research funding.

Therefore, most of his funds are obtained from the outside world by using his contacts, so it is impossible for a big boss like Li Wenguang to let him go.

"What project is Uncle Liu working on now?"

Li Mourn became interested.

Did he remember that Liu Qin said that her father was a scholar who specialized in the study of the Dimo ​​era, and the research project must also be related to the Dimo ​​era.

"I'm currently researching sacrificial texts, not the style of writing, but the special characters used in sacrificial rituals."

Liu Juexia also knew from her daughter that Li Mour was very interested in the Dimo ​​era, so it was not surprising to see that Li Mour was interested in her own research.

"Is there any special text for the sacrifice?"

Li Mourn was slightly taken aback.

"That's right, this was only discovered in recent years." Speaking of her field, Liu Juexia became interested, "You also know that the Dimo ​​era is very special. In that era, not only our Dongluo Xingzhou..."

While he was eloquent.

"Stop, stop." Liu Qin's mother interrupted him helplessly.

"It's the first time for this kid, Li Mourn, to come to our house to eat. You can't stop talking about it. Is the kid eating or listening to you? If you talk about it, the food will be cold."

After being reprimanded by his wife, Liu Juexia closed her mouth consciously.

"Come on, Li Mourn, eat this beef brisket." Liu Qin's mother brought food to Li Mourn, "Auntie just bought it this morning, it's very fresh."

"Thank you auntie."

Although Li Mourn was absorbed in what he was listening to, he couldn't say anything, so he could only eat the food in the bowl.

When he looked up, he saw Liu Qin smiling at him.

The dinner that Liu Qin's mother cooked today was very sumptuous, and the taste was also very good. It was obvious that she put a lot of thought into it.

She was even more enthusiastic at the dinner table, constantly adding various dishes to Li Mour, looking at Li Mour just like a mother-in-law looking at her future son-in-law.

If it weren't for Li Mourning's amazing appetite, if he was treated like this, his stomach would probably be overwhelmed.

It wasn't until the dinner was over that Li Mourn was freed from Liu Qin's mother's enthusiasm and came to the study with Liu Juexia.

Then I saw the remnant in Liu Juexia's collection.

"Is this... a candle?"

Li Mourn couldn't help being surprised.

What Liu Juexia took out was a white candle that was about as thick as a water pipe, and under the candle was a simple bronze candlestick.

Moreover, the candle has been used, and there is only half of it left, and a large amount of wax block formed by condensed wax oil is attached to the connection with the candlestick.

"That's right, it's candles." Liu Juexia nodded, "From the Dimo ​​era 1000 years ago to today's candles."

"But how did the candle last so long?"

Li Mour still felt incredible.

Things like candles are easily affected by temperature and humidity. If you don't pay attention to preservation, it is easy to leak oil.

But in more than 1000 years, even the best-preserved candles will be wiped out.

"I was also surprised when I first got this remnant, but it took a long time to find out that the texture of this candle is very special, not only is it extremely strong, but also the environment has minimal influence on it."

Liu Juexia said.

He once dropped the candlestick down the stairs by mistake. At that time, his heart was cold, but when he went down, he found that both the candlestick and the candle were intact, but the solid wood stairs were scratched with many scratches.

"You can try it and see if it's very strong."

Liu Juexia handed over the candlestick.

Li Mour reached out to take the candlestick, and as soon as he touched the candlestick, a cold breath rushed into his body from his fingertips.

Sure enough, it is a genuine relic.

"It's really hard." Li Mour tried to pinch it, and found that the candle was indeed very strong, like a rock in his hand.

If it were an ordinary candle, he would have crushed a small piece of it.

Of course, he didn't dare to use all his strength, otherwise let alone the candle, even the candlestick below might not be able to withstand it.

"And this is not an ordinary candle. After I got it, I studied it for a long time, and I was basically sure that it was a sacrificial vessel."

Liu Juexia saw that Li Mour was playing "I couldn't put it down", so he wasn't in a hurry to get back. Anyway, this remnant was very strong, so he didn't have to worry about damage.

"Sacrificial vessel?" Li Mour looked away from the remains, "Is this the candle used for the sacrifice?"

"That's right." Liu Juexia nodded, "You are so interested in the Dimo ​​era, you should know that the Dimo ​​dynasty attaches great importance to sacrifices, right?"

"I know." Li Mour nodded.

He also learned from the book recommended by Liu Qin that the Dimo ​​Dynasty valued sacrifices more than any other dynasty.

Not only do sacrifices and ceremonies be carried out on important festivals, but even the conferring of kings and marquises requires this link, which is even more important than the emperor's edict.

Only the emperor's imperial conferment, without the link of sacrifice, is a virtual king and a virtual marquis, and only after performing sacrifices can he be truly regarded as a real king and real marquis.

"But you certainly don't know that the Dimo ​​Dynasty has always used blood sacrifices."

Liu Juexia said.

"...a blood sacrifice?"

Li Mourn's attention was completely diverted from the candlestick, and he asked in confusion: "Didn't it mean that the sacrificial method of using living animals as sacrifices has been eliminated since 2000 years ago? How could the Dimo ​​Dynasty still use this method of blood sacrifice?"

"This is indeed what troubles scholars now. When the Dimo ​​Dynasty was at its strongest, it ruled the entire East Luoxing Continent. Whether it was politics or culture, it had reached its peak. Logically speaking, blood sacrifices to such barbaric primitives should not be used. way of sacrificial offerings, but that’s how it is.”

Liu Juexia also said in agreement.

The excavated ruins, as well as the research on some leftovers, clearly told them that blood sacrifice was a norm during the Dimo ​​Dynasty at that time.

The most important thing is that as sacrifices, living things such as livestock are not imported at all, and are only used in some unimportant sacrifices, and the sacrifices used in the sacrifices like the king's worship are all human beings.

And the numbers are horrendous.

After knowing more details, the image of Emperor Mo Dynasty in Li Mour's heart, besides being mysterious and powerful, has two more labels.

That is bloody and cruel!

Li Mourn couldn't help but think of what happened to Tian Yang and the others in the nursing home, that they were suspected of being sacrificed by those Yin corpses, performing some kind of special sacrifice.

He suddenly moved in his heart.

Think about it carefully, isn't that the blood sacrifice of the Dimo ​​Dynasty?
