The sun shines on your face, warm.

A loud noise kept echoing in his ears. Zhao Li yawned and opened his eyes lazily. The surrounding environment was reflected in his eyes. The noisy sound came over. The unfamiliar environment made him a little confused. He blinked and looked around.

Where is this?

Around him were men, women, young and old in simple clothes. He sat in the middle of the crowd with two other teenage children. Everyone surrounded them, crawling respectfully on the ground, raised his hands high, and collided with colorful beads on his wrists, making a crisp sound. There were many people, so the sound was also huge.

what happened?

Zhao Li's mind seemed to be frozen at this time. On his right side was a nervous boy, on his left side was a pretty girl with clean eyebrows and eyes, and a horizontal pattern was drawn with red cinnabar on one side of his cheek. His face was gentle and he was comforting the boy gently.

Then she noticed Zhao Li and smiled at him with a soft voice, like the wind blowing from the valley, holding Zhao Li's palm. Her palm was gentle and her smile was full of kindness, which made Zhao Li's subconscious guarded heart involuntarily relax.

It was also at this moment that he noticed that his clothes were different from those of the two children next to him.

Others wear gray or blue clothes, and their style is simple.

Their clothes were pure white like clouds, with light golden cuffs, and the clothes seemed to be sprinkled with spices, with a rich fragrance, and seemed to have a trace of medicine, which stimulated his thinking and slightly restored his judgment and spirit from that strange sense of confusion.

Zhao Li raised his eyes and looked at the things further away, and his heart gradually became shocked.

Under the pale blue sky are tall and vertical bronze flags. On the scarlet flags, light golden threads are embroidered with ancient patterns. The battle flags roll like clouds in the wind. In places more in the center than them, they are made of white stones, layer by layer.

At the center, bronze trees spread and grow.

A branch like a sword pointed to the sky.

In front of the bronze tree, various spices were burned in flames.

The smoke rushed up the higher sky along the bronze tree.

So the scarlet battle flags danced more violently, dancing in the clouds and smoke. The old man wearing sheepskin clothes had bare feet, one dagger in one hand and the other with a huge copper bell, accompanied by the ringtone, stepped on the white ground and danced with a bronze mask on his face.

A young woman kneeling around her, singing quaint syllables.

The bronze trees, dances, and simplicity of chanting all have unspeakable meanings, pious and noble, just like the vast sky, all of which made Zhao Li feel inexplicably uneasy.

In his memory, after he finished his work, he turned on his computer and mobile phone to catch up with the progress of the activity.

Because I had two games called one of the Three Illusion Gods at the same time, and the game activities were about to expire, I could only do this. After that, I should be so sleepy that I fell asleep.

But no matter what, he shouldn't have appeared here. This unfamiliar environment and a place that violated his cognition made him more and more alert. He wanted to stand up, but for some reason, his hands and feet could not exert force. After his own consciousness woke up, the feeling of powerlessness began to fade away quickly.

But if you want to recover your strength, it will take at least some time.

He obviously had to be extravagant and even noble clothes, which made him feel a little relieved.

The old man who was dancing finally stopped, and the sound of people's singing came to an abrupt end. In the huge union, only the sound of the wind was left.

The old man spoke to Zhao Li and the other two, which was a language that Zhao Li didn't understand, and his voice was simple and charming.

Two young women wearing white tunics walked down from the platform with the same steps.

They bent down to salute the boy on the side of Zhao Li, and then helped the boy step by step to the platform.

Zhao Li thought about what he had just seen, and had a guess in his mind, thinking that this was probably a kind of ritual. Judging from these two children, it was very likely that someone with a good identity was holding a coming-of-age ceremony, but why was he here?

Unfamiliar language, unfamiliar environment.

Zhao Li had a guess in his heart. He was in a bad state, and his heart was in a mess at this moment. At this time, the young man walked up to the high platform. The white-haired old man held a copper bell and a dagger and sang and danced around the young man.

Then, standing in front of the flames burning spices, facing the bronze tree pointing straight to the sky, spreading her arms and praying loudly, the voice was simple, and the rest lowered their heads and responded with another voice, which was endless, like a tide.

It should be a ceremony...

Zhao Li breathed a little relieved.

Then he saw the old man turn his head.

The sound of the copper bell suddenly became sharp and rapid.

The bronze dagger was like an eagle rushing into the boy's heart. The luxurious pure white clothes were stained with red blood, and the golden edges were red. Zhao Li's pupils suddenly shrank. He looked at the handsome boy without saying a word, like a piece of rotten wood falling on the platform.

Thousands of people around him suddenly exclaimed loudly.

The voices that Zhao Li subconsciously made, with confusion and anger, were drowned by people's voices.

They raised their hands, and the stone strings praying on their palms of their hands kept making crisp sounds.

Their words were like flames, like the strong wind blowing the war flag.

Zhao Li's anger did not last long. It didn't take long for the child to fall. The two young women came down, walked to him, saluted him respectfully, and then stretched out their hands, one left and one right to support Zhao Li.

Obviously, Zhao Li is the next person to be relieved of blood. The dagger will pierce into his heart like a pig or another animal, and then he will lie flat on the ground and die in this ghost place.

Zhao Li's muscles tense and then relaxed.

He frowned and let the two women take him away. He looked at the girl kneeling beside him. Her smile was gentle, but her eyes were empty. Her palms were placed on her knees and held tightly. This was an obvious detail, but he had just woken up and didn't notice it at all.

But notice, what can I do?

There are at least thousands of people here.

Zhao Li had no time to continue thinking and had been taken to the high platform.

He saw the white jade table in front of the flames, with unknown huge beast bones, bronze weapons, and a bead of eyes placed in front of the flames and bronze trees.

The child who was still alive just now fell to the ground, and the white stone platform was carved with exquisite patterns. The blood flowed out of the child's young heart filled the engraved patterns. The patterns reflected the light and darkness of the flames, as if they were breathing.

Zhao Li had no expression on his face.

He stood in the middle of the platform like a child just now, or like wood, allowing the two women to retreat, and the old man danced in his quaint steps as before. In front of the bronze tree, the flames were breathing smoke, and the smoke rushed into the sky, mixed with wind and clouds, holding the scarlet battle flag.

Finally, the battle flag was rolling above the crawling people's heads, like rivers.

The old man stood in front of Zhao Li, spread his arms and prayed loudly to the bronze tree.

Everyone fell down.

Only the girl was left slowing down half a beat. When she saw that the person's eyes changed suddenly, she almost instinctively shouted out loud, and then subconsciously covered her lips and widened her eyes.

Zhao Li quietly stretched out his hand, grabbed the huge pale animal bone, then took a step forward, followed his left hand tightly with his right hand, holding the animal bone, and the pale, gentle, kind, and even weak on his face turned into hideousness.

Then step forward and twist your waist

Exercise force!

With unprecedented smoothness, the force burst out from the toes, passing through the calves, thighs, waist, shoulders, arms, and finally when it was thrown out, the body suddenly relaxed like a tense war bow, and the animal bones made a dull sound of breaking through the air.

The moment the old man turned his head, the pale animal bones hit the target's chin accurately and heavily.

The bronze mask on the old man's face was smashed away.

The dull sound was like a war drum, which echoed instantly through the special platform. Everyone raised their heads and heard a roar that was not understood but filled with strong emotional colors, like the roar of a lion.

The wind brought by the beast bones blew into the fire, and various spices danced, and the flames suddenly became fierce and vigorous.

The figure threw away the animal bones and hit the two women running up, locking the old man's neck with his arms.

He grabbed the bronze dagger and pressed it against the old man's throat.

Standing on the platform, overlooking everyone.
