Chapter 113 Eagles
In front of the altar, countless mountain people looked terrified.
Even if they don’t know how to speak official language, they can still understand a lot. Some of them are younger, and they can’t help but lower their heads and dare not read them.
The patriarch sighed and waved his hand. Gu Xiang didn't need the mountain people behind him to force him, so he carried the food box to the altar.
Countless flying eagles lingered above their heads, except for the eagle singing, they were the roar of the mountain wind blowing through the mountain stream.
Zhao Ying's expression was tense. Li Sheng felt that his arms were pinched out by the uncontrolled Shangguan. He broke free, stroked his sleeves, adjusted his breath, and secretly observed the surrounding environment and route.
"When the chaos starts, don't run around, get into the crowd of mountain people... and follow Aji."
Li Sheng whispered.
After giving the explanation, he couldn't help but glance at his young master: "Miss Gu is only fifteen years old."
Zhao Ying: “…Shut up.”
Who is he? Those idiots who can't move their legs when they see a beautiful woman? He and Miss Gu are obviously close friends, and they have made friends with food for a long time. How could they fall into the eyes of these fools? They have to be so dirty?
Li Sheng didn't shut up and still muttered: "A girl as gentle and cute as Miss Gu, her future husband should be like Mr. Di. If you are like you, you should not provoke others."
Zhao Ying: "...Haha." This kid really knows Di Yahuai?
Di Yong is handsome. When it comes to Tokyo's official appearance, he will bow his head whenever he sees him. He is a chattering chatter and talks in front of familiar people that makes people feel a headache. His father and mother are all steady people, but they don't know how to cultivate him to look like this now.
If Miss Gu really chose "Di Yahuai" as her husband, she would probably have to practice Zen for three years first to cultivate concentration to be happy.
After a moment of distracting, Gu Xiang had already walked onto the altar. The flying eagles around him flew lower and lower, and his sharp claws and mouth made people tremble.
Once it spread its wings, it caused a strong wind.
Zhao Ying came to his senses and saw that Li Sheng was nowhere to be seen. He looked up keenly before he saw Li Sheng approaching the altar.
With his lightness skills, he could fly to Gu Xiang in a flash and take the person away.
Zhao Ying chuckled, Li Sheng was quite relieved to do things.
Li Sheng: Can you be uneasy? Do you know that he killed seven in seven out of many people when he was young and was successfully selected to follow Zhao Ying? Now I think about it... If he hadn't followed Zhao Ying back then, he might have been the top scorer in the imperial examination... Well, this is unrealistic. After all, his head hurts after studying, but if he goes around the world, he will be a hero.
Gu Xiang naturally saw Li Sheng approaching a little, and smiled in his heart, let alone, he felt more at ease.
I heard that Li Changsui has good skills.
The clan leader and clan elders were in a very complicated mood. Looking at the food box in Gu Xiang and her hands, they always felt that they had suffered a great loss.
At least one meal!
The people of Ningwa Village live in seclusion in the mountains and make a living by fishing and hunting on weekdays. Whether it is fish or meat, the most common method is to boil it directly in white water. Because there are salt mines in the mountains, they are not short of salt and spices, and can occasionally change it back. However, they have never seen delicious food like this bowl of soup and vegetables in front of them.
I'm afraid I won't have a chance to taste such deliciousness again in the future.
The patriarch couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, the drum sounded, and the mountain people under the altar knelt down and bowed together. A row of twelve mountain people were covered with silver pieces, step by step through the clouds and mist, climbed to the platform, and began to extinguish the torches lit on the platform one by one.
Darkness is coming.
The eagle sang in the sky one after another.
The sacrifices in Ningwa Village for years have all started from the moment the torch was extinguished. As envoys of the gods, a group of eagles flew into the altar in the dark, tearing up the sacrifices of the three animals, and sending the souls of the three animals to the gods.
The hundreds of years of rules have been passed down to this day, and generations of Ningwazhai Mountain residents act in this way.
The three women on the altar were crying and shivering.
Gu Xiang blinked, walked over and comforted in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, come, I'll give you three bowls of soup, I brought one bowl if I don't mind--"
As she said that, she put a bowl of soup out.
Where did these three girls have the intention to drink soup?
Suping gritted her teeth, took the bowl, first fed it to Sumei, who was the most timid and cried the most, took a few sips, and then brought it to her mouth and took two sips.
As soon as the hot soup was in her stomach, Sumei's crying became less.
For some reason, she seemed to have a lot of fear, but she was still afraid, but she couldn't cry.
Ying?
Su Ping even smiled and said while laughing: "Actually - I'm afraid of nothing!"
After so many years, they have only lived a life of silence, and they can make a profit if they can live for one more day. Now their sisters have escaped from the tiger's mouth and can die cleanly.
All three of them gradually calmed down.
The last torch was extinguished, and the mountain people knelt down silently, protected their heads with their hands, and lie on the ground.
The condor is about to fly down.
The mountain people under the altar also bowed their heads and muttered something. Many people felt a little embarrassed and sobbed.
Not only the sacrifices will become prey of the condors, but the good young men on the stage will also become food for the condors.
During the life sacrifice, there must be people in the village on the altar.
Gu Xiang looked up and saw that there were so many giant eagles in the sky that seemed to cover the sky and the sun. Her heart was beating like a drum.
What she was supposed to be a serious food farming script. She was mentally prepared to learn cooking in the deep mountains and valleys while making money and food spots. Then she followed the customs and listened to her parents obediently. She became a child in the village, worked hard to make a fortune, and took her family out of the mountains step by step, went to the county town to buy affordable housing, opened a snack shop, and gave her children the imperial examination. Maybe she could earn an imperial decree in middle age. In such an era, she turned over and changed her family...
What's the result?
Gu Xiang looked at the eagle in the sky, his mind was garbled, his face became more and more calm, and he raised the food box high.
System! If you don’t want to change hosts, then it’s best not to pay any discounts for your product introduction.
In an instant, the sound of eagles resounded across the altar, and countless eagles lined up to get down from the sky, holding the meat from the food box and siping the soup.
Gu Run stared at the altar with his eyes tightly, his body trembling with fear, but his heart was shouting: Hurry, what are you doing? Eat her!
But the group of eagles suddenly became quiet. It was an indescribable tranquility. They didn't even compete for food. Each of them showed a little elegance when they were eating.
The soup and vegetables in the food box disappeared bit by bit, and the giant eagles fell from the sky one after another, landed on the stone wall, on the flagpole, on the steps, and smaller ones also landed in front of Gu Xiang, even on the knees, arms, and shoulders.
The group of eagles lowered their heads, their chirping sounded and felt a sense of closeness in their ears. They squinted their eyes and lazily exposed their most fragile necks in front of Gu Xiang.
The patriarch suddenly stood up, dumbfounded, and a group of kneeling mountain people also looked up at the altar in amazement.
