Chapter 327 – Moonlight
The clear moonlight shines from above.
This is really a very strange scene. The closed tomb can actually receive light from the outside world. No matter how you think about it, it is inconceivable.If someone with a poor sense of space came here, he would probably think that he had accidentally returned to the ground.
However, the setting of poor sense of space certainly cannot be applied to Bai Xinyue. If a person can't even grasp the sense of direction, how can he become an invincible general?Although the journey up, down, left, and right is really not smooth, but after a rough estimate, Bai Xinyue can still be sure that she must still be deep underground, at least 30 meters away from the ground .
And this dome with moonlight as the main element uses an ingenious structure to introduce the light from above, and perhaps some reflective devices are installed in those invisible corners.However, Bai Xinyue didn't delve into it. These craftsmen's skills are not his specialty, and there is no need for it.
There is another place worth describing here, its natural form.Different from the main structure of the imperial mausoleum that passed through all the way, there are not many traces of artificial carving here, but a natural karst cave was used to transform it.The most eye-catching thing is the round altar in the middle, covering an area of almost [-] square meters.
Now, the sacrifice bound in the middle of the altar is Huo Lian himself.
A small beam of moonlight falling from the sky, like a miniature follow spot light, just hit Huolian's side face.At this moment, he was still in a state of drowsiness, his unstressed neck naturally turned to one side, and the silver-white light that met him cast a half-bright and half-dark light and shadow effect on his face.
The bright half, because it is coated with a layer of light film, has fair skin, warm red hair, and even the most subtle lines are soft.However, Bai Xinyue still felt that the other half hiding in the dark was even more attractive. Because she couldn't see clearly, she wanted to explore it all the more.
Next to Huolian is a shadow, not his own projection, but another existence.
The high priest at this moment is more like a ghost.
The moonlight, which treats everything equally, can't dispel the haze on her body, not to mention forming some dreamy light and shadow effects. Once the originally incomparably clear light falls on her, it seems to be sucked into a chaotic vortex, in vain The gray and dirty layer formed by it makes people feel extremely uncomfortable just by taking a casual glance.
The only reflective part of the high priest's body was a saber in her hand.Although most monsters don't prepare weapons other than their bodies, the high priest has fully understood that force is not what she is good at, and the power of claws does not listen to her at all.
Moreover, today's imperial mausoleum has been reduced to a battlefield, and such a small prop can be picked up from anywhere.The saber is a small standard product, the edge is a small and thin section, and the cold light reflected is very limited.
However, the position of the cold light is very small, so that it is so close to Huo Lian's throat.Because the high priest, who was not familiar with weapons, could not grasp the strength well, the sharp edge even pressed a red line on Huo Lian's skin, which might break the skin and ooze blood at any time.
It was less than half an hour ago that I saw the tragic scene of someone committing suicide. This time was not enough to digest the shock at that time. The scarlet image was still deeply ingrained in Bai Xinyue's mind.Therefore, there is no need to use your brain at all, Bai Xinyue has already formed bad associations.
It is precisely because of this layer of fear that Bai Xinyue has been silent since just now.He didn't even move his pace without authorization, for fear of irritating the priestess who couldn't even hold a knife steadily.
The high priest raised her eyes and swept towards this side. At the same time, she also performed a rare extraordinary performance. The hand holding the sharp weapon did not shake much, and remained within a stable and dangerous range. "You came at the right time. I have prepared everything needed for the sacrifice."
Bai Xinyue suddenly regretted that he didn't follow Wei Yunfei's army. If he could rely on modern hot-weapons, maybe he could break the deadlock.
Yes, he was threatened, and the other party had grasped the most important key points straight away, and Bai Xinyue surrendered and couldn't move in just one meeting.At this moment, let alone listening to a lunatic talking about some gods and priests, even if the other party asked him to participate, Bai Xinyue might not be able to refuse.
Facts have proved that there are not only crow mouths, but also "crow brains" in the world. It was just a random thought, and even Bai Xinyue herself planned to forget it after thinking about it, but in the next second, the unlucky thought came true on the spot. real.
"You two, please stand in your place." The high priest said softly, although the tone itself did not sound like an order, but there was still a kind of arrogance.
After a slight pause, the high priest seemed to remember something—even though the leader of the water tribe had played a detached and compassionate role all year round, and had lost out to the Lou Mei family in the power struggle, he was tied up. Sea execution ground.But in essence, she is still the ruler of one of the four major families. She may not be good at those tricks, but it is absolutely impossible for her to not be able to do it at all.
The high priest's next words were aimed at Ludia, "Thank you very much for coming and bringing Bai Xinyue, otherwise I was worried that there were not enough people to participate in the sacrifice."
How much sincere gratitude lies behind this sentence is still open to debate.But the literal meaning of the words has formed a "cooking knife" to untangle cattle, which is enough to completely tear that small unstable alliance apart.
Ludia hurriedly glanced to the side timidly, "Master Bai..."
Bai Xinyue immediately interrupted his explanation, and said coldly, "Do as she says."
Lydia didn't dare to say anything, so she had to take action silently.
But at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder whether he could explain it clearly, or in other words, it didn't make any sense whether he explained it or not.Chairman Bai just regarded him as a guide. Now that the road has come to an end, his existence should be meaningless.
Not only Ludia, but even Bai Xinyue himself acted under the command of the high priest, without saying a word.
The structure of this altar naturally followed the ancient tradition of monsters, and still adopted the four orientations of east, west, south, and north.
The crazy woman at present arranged them on the two corners of east and west, which happened to be a diagonal line.
Bai Xinyue walked along the perimeter, and when she passed the north side, she saw that there was already a person standing there in advance.That's right, it was Weixi who hadn't shown her face for a long time.
I don't know what's wrong with this eldest lady. With her status as a tomb-suppressing beast, at least within the scope of the imperial mausoleum, she can change her appearance as she likes. Yue probably wouldn't be so surprised.But she was lucky. Among the thousands of images, she chose the most everyday one... a little girl, with long snow-white hair hanging down to her ankles, making her petite and fragile.
Vulnerability, however, is only on the outside.Not long ago, when facing Wei Yunfei's army, Bai Xinyue was still in a desperate posture, but at this moment, it seemed that she had learned to be cautious in an instant.He just walked past Never Xi's back silently, not to mention taking the opportunity to sneak attack, he didn't even stretch out a finger.
In the final analysis, Bai Xinyue has no chance of winning.Confronting the tomb-suppressing beast head-on in the imperial mausoleum, Bai Xinyue is not ready to die in vain.
As for Ludia, she has already established herself in her position first.But he was still looking left and right, unable to stop for a moment.He's restless—this kind of internal anxiety is not current, it's been a while.He couldn't tell the specific reason, but he just felt that something was wrong.
It's not right.
All parties were in place, but the high priest did not take immediate action.From time to time, she looked up at the full moon above, and from this series of tiny details, she could roughly guess what she was waiting for.
Although it is the first time to visit this place, Bai Xinyue already has a thorough understanding of the structure of the altar and even the cave. This is the fundamental reason why he deliberately walked slowly just now. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he even tested the soil with his feet. degree of hardness.
Bai Xinyue already had something to rely on before speaking based on enough investigation. Of course, what to say and what tone to use still had to be measured. "Hao Yan, it seems that you still haven't got all the people together." As she spoke, Bai Xinyue glanced at the empty corner to the south pointingly.
When Bai Xinyue's eyes couldn't be stopped, she seemed to glance over Ludia's face, revealing an even more indescribable depth.
The high priest glanced at the moon again, and estimated that there were still more than ten minutes before the climax of the moon.As long as it is an insignificant "chat", it is also a good choice to pass the time, "That position is reserved for Ah Jin... Now it should be called Zhuang Jin. I didn't expect him to come. But it doesn't matter, lack of I can make up a corner of it."
Bai Xinyue nodded.It seemed that he was really worried that the priest would fail because of the lack of one of the four, so he seriously discussed the solution with the high priest.
"Heh—" the high priest suddenly smiled.Probably no one had ever seen her smile like this before. In the blink of an eye, her dignified demeanor disappeared, adding a sense of strangeness for no reason. "You don't have to find something to say, I know exactly what you really want to ask."
As the high priest spoke, the saber in his hand also slowly changed its position, away from the vital point on his neck.The back part of the knife brushed Huo Lian's cheek again and again.
Yes, in the process of moving, the high priest even turned the knife in one direction on purpose. Facing Huo Lian's face, which is outstanding even among monsters, if there were a few more bloody wounds, it would be true. What a pity.If you want to say, this can be regarded as a manifestation of love for beauty.
For the time being, there is no confrontational edge, but even so, it still makes Bai Xinyue feel terrified.No matter how cold he is on the surface, a heart is about to pop out of his mouth.
The high priest's saber finally stopped at a very scary angle, and the tip of the knife was infinitely close to Huo Lian's eyelids. Perhaps the latter should be very grateful that he was in a comatose state at the moment, otherwise no one would remain indifferent under such a threat.
Perhaps because he found this state very interesting, the high priest tilted his head and looked at it with interest.He said in his mouth, "What you want to ask is actually his condition. I can tell you that he is not dead now, but just asleep. But after a while, it will make no difference whether he is dead or not. He is me... No, it should be said It is the sacrifice chosen by the Lord Tiandao."
It has never been heard that after the sacrifice is over, the sacrifice can still escape unscathed.
Huo Lian was right in front of him, even if Bai Xinyue's self-control was [-] times stronger, she still couldn't tear her gaze away from him.
There is no other way, Bai Xinyue can only force herself to focus on two things, while staring at the top of the altar with good eyes, guarding against the irreversible deeds of that crazy woman.On the other side, he used the lightest and least noticeable movement, using his fingers to draw a piece of leather cord from under the collar.
Of course, there is nothing empty on the rope, and judging by Bai Xinyue's personality, she probably doesn't like wearing trivial accessories.Therefore, what is hanging on the rope is a small flute.Its shape is quite similar to the bone flute used by Wen Li and others, but the material is metal. It should be a product of modern industry, but I don't know what it is used for.
The moon has risen to the middle.
The moonlight instantly transformed from the previous clear state into a generous mode. People who talk about "moon cage and light veil" must have never seen such a dazzling silver-white light.That’s right, it’s the dazzle, perhaps related to the exquisite devices above, that changes the hazy moonlight from its original state, almost having the same penetrating power as the sun.
The entire altar was illuminated thoroughly.
Huo Lian was no longer in that semi-dark state, and immediately became the center of light.In such a shining state, Bai Xinyue subconsciously looked away.
He uncontrollably recalled the first time he saw Xi Ran. At that time, he was a poor sacrifice who was rescued, but the other party was the monster king whom everyone looked up to.
It is impossible for any person's spirit in the world to be strong from the beginning to the end. There will always be such a stimulus that will produce a sharp lethality.Bai Xinyue was in a trance when she shouldn't have been, her brain was having difficulty functioning, and she didn't even know where to put her eyes.
Because Bai Xinyue was in poor condition, when the voice suddenly sounded, he hardly heard it.
This sound that came out of nowhere matched the light that illuminated the space perfectly. It was so holy that people immediately put away all contemptuous attitudes. In front of this sound, they were only worthy of kneeling and worshiping.
The voice said, "I didn't expect you to continue this sacrifice, and it's been so long, Priest of Monster Beasts."
This is really a very strange scene. The closed tomb can actually receive light from the outside world. No matter how you think about it, it is inconceivable.If someone with a poor sense of space came here, he would probably think that he had accidentally returned to the ground.
However, the setting of poor sense of space certainly cannot be applied to Bai Xinyue.
