Chapter 29 The Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony Begins
These days, nothing happened.
Perhaps it was because the cold winter had gone and the spring breeze was gradually coming. I could often hear some insects chirping when I went to sleep at night.
A few spring rains fell. Although the cold wind was still a little chilly, the buds and tender leaves of trees near and far had gradually begun to grow.
Zhu Mange had come several times, and Ye Yang kept his promise and taught her how to practice.
At the same time, he also heard that Zhu Mange's Yili Society had made a big name among the disciples of Feitianmen, and many disciples were proud to join it.
Ordinary disciples may not know, but Ye Yang grew up in Feitianmen since he was a child and knew more different information than ordinary disciples.
The senior leaders in the sect have always been dissatisfied with the disciples' clubs. In the future, the assessment of appointments, job levels, and job promotions are all important inspection directions, especially the clubs founded by family children, which are actually a deduction.
Because there are many disputes between families, poor families, and teachers and apprentices in the sect.
A hundred years ago, Feitianmen actually had five major families. The Liu family was in its heyday. The three elders and the four great kings of the Liu family accounted for more than half, and one-third of the remaining half were basically their followers, almost turning Feitianmen into the Liu family.
Since then, the leader's orders could not leave the ancestral pavilion, and the scope of power could not go beyond three miles of the mountain gate.
The subordinate families fought each other, secretly obeyed and secretly disobeyed, and almost overturned Feitianmen.
That was also the biggest civil strife in the history of Feitianmen. Later, the fourth generation of the leader formed alliances and attracted foreign aid to get rid of the Liu family. Feitianmen was barely maintained and then prospered.
Therefore, Ye Yang never got involved with the Yili Society. After helping Zhu Mange practice every day, he never asked about other things. Zhu Mange invited him several times, but he refused.
The Zhu family handed down a five-lock tiger-catching spear. Unlike traditional firearms, it was decorated with four hook sickles five inches below the tip of the spear.
The hook sickle is heavy and not suitable for girls, so Zhu Mange learned a cool sword technique after arriving at Feitianmen.
She was elusive and good at speed, like a rose with thorns. When she slashed with a knife, the opponent only cared about admiring the beauty of the rose and wanted to reach out to grasp it, but she never thought that she had been stabbed and bleeding.
After feeding the knife with Zhu Mange, Zhu Mange's hair was flying, panting, sweating profusely, and wetting the hair on her temples.
During this period of time, with the help of Ye Yang, she made rapid progress. She even felt that the other party's swordsmanship was better than some of the sect's teachers.
She exclaimed in her heart.
"These six hundred spirit stones are really worth it."
And it feels like the other party is like a machine, practicing swordsmanship every day. In the past few days, every time she finished practicing with her, the other party would swing the sword thousands of times again. Ye Yang had told her this practice method before, swinging the sword five thousand times a day.
But she could hold on for one or two days, three or four days, but she couldn't hold on for less than a week. Later, she was occupied by worldly affairs and couldn't even swing the sword a thousand times a day.
Watching the other party finish teaching and swing the sword again, drops of sweat flowed from the hard body and firm face, dripping onto the chest muscles, back and abdomen, lower back and trouser legs.
Zhu Mange thought of the jokes of the two elders in childhood, and her face flushed slightly
"Junior Sister Zhu, don't come in the next few days, we all have to prepare well for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky."
"Senior Brother Ye is right, I think so too, here I wish Senior Brother Ye to successfully open his life."
"I also wish Junior Sister all her wishes come true."
...
Winter has gone and spring has come, another season.
Nothing happened, but according to the news in the sect.
Recently, a group of wild Tuoyun horses were found on the banks of the Luo River under the Feitian Sect.
Tuoyun horses have golden horns and snow hooves, are strong and powerful, with flying manes, and seem to walk on snow, so they are named Tuoyun.
In addition to being able to jump over mountains and streams, and fly at low altitudes, the golden horns on their heads can also manipulate wild grass and shrubs to open up long-distance travel routes.
The Tuoyun horses in the sect have lost much of their wildness for a long time.
This group of wild Tuoyun horses can be used to purify the bloodline of the tribe.
Even ordinary warriors can't catch up with them at such a fast speed.
With such mobility, whether chasing the enemy or escaping, it is a great help.
In fact, the sect has long been paying attention to the traces of this group of horses.
On the morning of the second day, Ye Yang and others had already ambushed in the dense water grass beside the Luo River and saw the horses in front.
There are about seven or eight Tuoyun horses in this group, five or six of which are adult horses, and the rest are young horses.
The whole body is cloud-white, with flying manes, running on the water, raising their heads and neighing, like a dragon or a tiger, with shiny fur, extremely handsome and beautiful.
Wang Xijing waved his hand, and the Listening to the Rain Fire Power spurted countless stars of fire, surrounding the group of Tuoyun horses.
Formed an encirclement.
Thick fire fog and cloud light appeared, covering the sky and the earth, covering the traces of the horses.
The Tuoyun horses reacted quickly, and they had already reacted when the fire fog just appeared.
The majestic horses were suddenly startled, neighing to the sky, and rushing around.
At this time, several monks suddenly appeared on the river bank on one side and approached quickly.
Ye Yang and others made threatening sounds.
The horses that were originally scattered were soon gathered together again.
They drove these horses to the western tidal flats, where the formation had been set up long ago.
Soon, seven or eight Tuoyun horses were all within the range of the formation.
Suddenly, yellow fog filled the air, the earth was surging, and a diamond-like wall suddenly appeared.
Suddenly, steel-like vines grew on the ground and wrapped around the horses’ legs. The seven or eight horses were caught off guard and soon fell to the ground, foaming on their heads.
This is the formation “Little Diamond Armor Wood Formation”.
It can confuse the direction and restrict the forward movement. The vines are made of special caltrop seeds and wrapped in gold and iron.
I was not afraid of the control of the Tuoyun Horse just now.
Seeing seven or eight Tuoyun horses fall to the ground, everyone hurried forward.
“Well, this group of Tuoyun horses is actually a complete tribe, with the instinct to reproduce.”
“There are still more than a dozen horses in the sect. Now that twenty or thirty good horses are together, the dragon energy will be born. Maybe a horse king will appear and a treading cloud horse will be born.”
“The treading cloud horse is as fast as lightning, treading on the clouds, entering and exiting the clouds, eating clouds and spitting out mist, far beyond the general flying magic weapon.”
A rough male voice sounded, an old man in his fifties or sixties, wearing a melon-shaped hat and holding a dry pipe.
This is the Bi Ma steward of Feitianmen.
He is in charge of the grazing and placement of Tuoyun horses on weekdays.
At this time, the precious Tuoyun horses of the sect have been added again, with seven or eight more horses added at once.
He was very excited.
The most important thing is that for a long time, the Tuoyun horses of Feitianmen have been mating with each other, and their bloodline has degenerated. The bloodline is close, so it is difficult to breed.
Now that fresh blood has been added, it means that these horses have the hope and possibility of re-breeding.
At this time, after these horses were controlled.
Wang Xijing waved his sleeves and produced countless clear air.
The clear air wrapped seven or eight strong horses and transported them to Feitianmen.
At the time of the spring equinox, the hillsides were full of yellow and red wild flowers.
A spring rain slid over, dancing on the bamboo branches and leaves.
Feitianmen’s once-in-a-decade ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky is about to come.
On this day, as soon as Ye Yang went out, he saw that the sect was clean and full of red lists, red cloth coats, and red lanterns.
Some devout people even started fasting three days ago, just like the ancient ancestors' sacred and solemn sacrifices to heaven and earth.
In ancient times, there were thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and wild beasts were rampant. Humans were the weakest of the hundreds of tribes. The ancient emperor led the people to hunt wild beasts, sacrifice to heaven, and pray for the people, and finally humans grew stronger.
Later, the sect evolved and became the mainstream. The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was decided by each sect according to its background, strength, level, etc.
Each sacrifice took a lot of manpower, material resources, monster sacrifices, and bones and blood treasures. So in order to avoid too heavy a burden, Feitianmen set the time to every ten years.
Ye Yang walked into the sacrificial hall and found that the hall was already full of disciples. There were five seats in the front, and four of them were sitting at the moment.
It was Wang Dong, Flying Tiger Li Bayuan, and Yan Qingying. In addition to the three, there was also a young man wearing a green shirt and a sword on his waist.
He had thick black hair, a thin body, a sharp face, and bright eyes. He was Zhang Buer, the "Xia Sanlang" of Feitianmen.
Zhang Buer was the most popular person in Feitianmen because he was brave, righteous, selfless, chivalrous, punishing evil, and often sacrificed his own interests to help others.
But Zhang Buer was also the person who was closest to the disciples of Feitianmen, because as long as someone asked him for help, he would help, so he didn't confide in anyone, and was often called the walking central cool breeze, blowing through everyone equally.
At the same time, he couldn't stand many people in the sect bullying the weak, and often spoke out for justice and stood up for others, offending many people, so he was called "Xia Sanlang."
There were five seats in the front, but among the more than a hundred disciples present, no one came forward, and only four people sat. Obviously, the levels have been divided.
"Brother Ye, here."
Yan Qingying saw Ye Yang and waved to him. Wang Dong smiled slightly, but no other expression could be seen. Li Bayuan looked unhappy and snorted. Zhang Buer called out "Brother Ye."
Ye Yang waved his hand and did not want to step out. Everyone was equal in participating in the heavenly sacrifice ceremony to awaken their destiny.
