Murano Momo is a cunning doctor
Chapter 892 Human Sacrifice
"It seems that we can't ask for perfection in everything."
Just as Jiang Xiaochuan was secretly sighing, he was suddenly startled and a sense of familiarity suddenly surged into his heart.
This feeling is different from the vague perception I had in Baicaotang.
In fact, as he continued to absorb the power of the dragon jade, the connection between Jiang Xiaochuan and the dragon jade became stronger and stronger.
At this moment, he clearly sensed that Long Yu was right in front of him.
Jiang Xiaochuan looked up suddenly and found that Shen Qiu had stopped. A stone chamber came into view in front of him.
This stone chamber is made entirely of bluestone and looks indestructible.
The totem carvings on the stone gate are exquisite.
In front of the stone chamber, a small altar is particularly eye-catching.
Four half-human, half-animal statues surround it.
They have enchanting figures and various shapes, exuding a wild charm and inviolable majesty.
In the center of the altar is an intricately carved stone flower stand that looks very strange.
Jiang Xiaochuan had a strong premonition in his heart.
The Dragon Jade must be hidden in this stone chamber!
"Wan'er, this is it."
Pointing at the altar, Shen Qiu's voice could not hide his excitement, "You just need to stand on the altar and drip a few drops of blood, then you can activate the altar and open the stone door."
Looking at the strange and unpredictable altar in front of her, Li Wan'er's heart was beating like a drum.
At this moment, she could no longer tell whether what she saw was real hope or another cruel trap.
"Don't worry, I will still help you when I get the jade."
Shen Qiu's voice sounded at the right time, with a hint of temptation: "When I comprehend the mystery, I will definitely help you get justice for your blood feud."
Li Wan'er bit her lower lip tightly, a look of determination flashing in her eyes.
Wasn't it that she had gone to so much trouble just to get this precious jade in order to avenge her blood feud?
Now, the opportunity is here.
No matter whether there is blessing or curse ahead, she has to take a gamble.
Mustering up her courage, Li Wan'er stepped towards the altar.
As she got closer, Li Wan'er suddenly felt a palpitation.
It was an inexplicable attraction, strange and powerful, as if it was sucking her soul into the altar.
"and many more!"
Just as Li Wan'er was about to step onto the altar, Barong, who had been silent all this time, seemed to have thought of something.
Suddenly he yelled, "One more step forward and you'll die in there!"
Hearing this, Li Wan'er felt as if struck by lightning and quickly retracted her feet.
Seeing this, Shen Qiu's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
His plan was almost perfect. He only needed the finishing touch to sacrifice Li Wan'er alive and open the stone door.
"Don't try to confuse people with your lies. I have studied it clearly."
Shen Qiu suppressed his anger and pretended to be calm, saying, "It only takes a few drops of blood to activate this altar and open the stone door."
"Pooh!"
Baron spat fiercely on the ground, "You old bastard, you are so shameless!"
“The totems and arrangements on this altar are clearly a human sacrifice ritual unique to southern Xinjiang.”
When he entered the palace and saw the totem of the soul-eating insect, Barong suspected that the owner of the tomb was from southern Xinjiang.
Seeing the stone chamber in front of him, he became more certain of his guess.
The totem on the stone gate cannot be used by just anyone.
They represent the status of distinguished figures in southern Xinjiang.
Only those with distinguished status and noble position could use such totems in their tombs.
In ancient times, the hierarchy in southern Xinjiang was strict.
Ordinary people simply dare not presumptuously use these totems that symbolize nobility and power.
The four sacred beasts on the altar in front are even more familiar.
They represent the patron saints of four tribes in southern Xinjiang that were once glorious.
Originally, Barong was confused by the image of the four sacred beasts coming together.
When his eyes fell on the flower of afterlife carved in the center of the altar, all the mysteries were solved.
In southern Xinjiang, the flower of the afterlife represents reincarnation and rebirth.
Its appearance is often associated with an extremely solemn yet cruel ancient ritual – living sacrifice.
This is not a casual sacrifice, but the most profound and mysterious part of the ancient witchcraft in southern Xinjiang.
The people of southern Xinjiang firmly believe that through such living sacrifices, the soul of the sacrifice can be sent intact into the orbit of reincarnation as an exchange.
Pray that the tomb owner can achieve some form of rebirth.
