The moon, as expected, is already hanging in mid-air
Tonight is the seventh night after the full moon, which is also the seventh day after the Mid-Autumn Festival
But, tonight is destined to be an unusual night
If it were normal, everyone should have entered a happy sleep at this time, but tonight, as long as they are the people of the Crescent Empire, they will raise the torches in their hands and rush to the place of sacrifice at this moment, because , tonight is the annual sacrificial ceremony, which is the worship of the moon god. The New Moon Empire believes in the theory of the moon god. -< >./-< >-Remember!
Looking around on the street, there are all people holding torches. There is no crowding or fighting among the crowd. They follow the footsteps of the people in front of them in an orderly manner and slowly walk towards the sacrificial site, with uniform steps. This represents their sincerity in offering sacrifices and also represents their respect and reverence for the Moon God.
As time went by, Tang Jing, who had been waiting in the palace, was finally taken out of the palace by a group of people. Others who followed Tang Jing were not allowed to follow Tang Jing because they were not from the Crescent Empire. , of course, they all have two legs, and no one cares whether they can run by themselves.
Surrounded by a bunch of people, Tang Jing walked slowly and sincerely from Tang Jing's residence to the gate of the palace. Tang Jing bet that it must have taken them half an hour to walk along the way. Not only did they Slow down, the group of people escorting Tang Jing were like dancing masters along the way, and they chanted some incantations to the moon from time to time. It was even worse than a monk chanting sutras, because when they were reciting incantations, their voices were rising and falling. They also made different strange noises. This was in the middle of the night and they walked for another half an hour. Tang Jing was willing to bet. People who don't know the situation will definitely be scared and lose half their lives.
Outside the gate of the palace, there was a car parked. The car was all silver-white, with four wheels underneath. In front of the car was a white monster. Tang Jing had never seen it before, so she couldn't tell what the monster was. The car body is a very long rectangle with sticks standing on the four corners of the rectangle. There is a silver-white ribbon tied on it, fluttering in the wind, which is very strange. There were no seats in the car, only two cushions, and they didn't look like cushions for sitting on.
When she was far away from the palace, Tang Jing had already seen His Highness Shui Yueyu standing next to the car. He seemed to have arrived earlier than her. It seemed like I had been waiting for a long time.
After Tang Jing and these weirdos slowly approached the carriage and were still one meter away, the guys who were chanting curses all the way finally stepped aside. -< >-Remember!
Suddenly, Tang Jing watched them all move aside one by one. Instead, she didn't know what to do. It seemed that no one told her what to do after she was sent out of the palace by these guys chanting spells. Tang Jing was helpless. While taking measures, His Highness Shui Yueyu walked up to her at some point. He got down on one knee. Stretching out his right hand, "My wife, may the moon god be with you."
"Oh." After listening to Shui Yueyu's words. Tang Jing just answered Shui Yue's words in a mosquito-like voice. She was afraid that if she said something wrong, the group of guys chanting the curse would come back and drag her away. By then, she would be foaming at the mouth. You can imagine a group of lunatics in white clothes jumping and screaming around you in the middle of the night. Do you think your mental endurance can still be strong? If you can bear it, it just means you are subhuman.
Shui Yueyu stood up, then took Tang Jing's hand and walked towards the so-called car.
"Have you decided to attend the wedding?" Shui Yueyu asked in a low voice, but looking at Shui Yueyu's face, she didn't notice that he was talking.
"I."
Tang Jing just opened her mouth to say a word, and was interrupted by Shui Yueyu, "Don't let others find you talking, otherwise, you will be executed on the spot for disrespecting the Moon God."
"Oh my God, what are you doing here? It's like going to a funeral~!" Tang Jing, led by Shui Yueyu, walked slowly to the side of the car, but the scene outside frightened Tang Jing so much that her heart pounded. ~" beat quickly, because there were people standing on both sides of the street. They were all wearing white clothes and with white ribbons on their heads. This, this really looked like a funeral event with tens of thousands of people. But Tang Jing also noticed that except for her and His Highness Shui Yueyu, who were wearing silver-white clothes, everyone else was all white.
"Don't talk nonsense, this is the annual Moon God worship. As long as a member of the royal family gets married, they will rush to this date. This is to get the blessing and baptism of the Moon God."
"Oh my god, this is really scary." Tang Jing stood there, almost unable to walk.
"Princess, Your Highness, please come to Yu." At this time, a man standing next to the car said.??
Yu, if Tang Jing guessed correctly, this Yu is a transportation tool like a 'dray truck'. "Well, how do you ride on this?" Tang Jing asked curiously.
The man smiled strangely at Tang Jing, "Princess, this is not for sitting, but for kneeling, to represent respect for the Moon God."
"Ah~" Tang Jing shouted in surprise.
Suddenly, everyone¡¯s eyes silently shifted to where Tang Jing was standing.
Just when Tang Jing was in embarrassment, His Highness Shui Yueyu walked out first and said loudly to the moon: "The supreme existence of the Moon God, as his direct believers, we should express our gratitude in the most ancient way. Our respect.¡±
"Then please invite the princess and your highness to come to Yu." The man who stood there said without emotion.
At this time, Tang Jing did not dare to say anything nonsense. The eyes of these hundreds of thousands of people would definitely be enough to stare ten of them to death.
"Yes, respected priest." Shui Yueyu saluted to the priest, then got into the car gracefully, and then knelt on the soft cushion with grace and grace.
After Shui Yueyu knelt down, the priest's eyes were fixed on Tang Jing at this moment. Looking at the lifeless look, Tang Jing was so frightened that she hurriedly got into the car and knelt down on the other side following His Highness's appearance. On a mat.
"Get on the road~!" the priest shouted to the front, and walked forward one step ahead of the car.
"Hey, Shui Yue Yu, what's going on? I'm not attending the wedding, why did I become a 'funeral'?" Tang Jing said to Shui Yue Yu in a low voice.
"Listen, this is not a funeral. This is the Crescent Empire's annual Moon God worship ceremony. If other people in the Crescent Empire hear you refer to the Moon God worship as a funeral, I bet you won't be able to see it. Until tomorrow¡¯s sun.¡±
"It's not so scary." Tang Jing began to retreat in her heart. This is no joke. In fact, as long as they stretch their legs, close their eyes, and then lie down in this car that looks like a car but not a car, then this What is the difference from holding a funeral? The only difference is that the funeral ceremony is to send the dead, while the moon god worship is to send two living people to some sacrificial place. But Tang Jing also knows very well that this is a matter of belief. If other people's beliefs are questioned, then they will definitely use any means to protect their own beliefs.
"Humph, if you don't believe it, try it~!"
The car was moving forward slowly and steadily. There were people standing on both sides of the road. They were holding torches, as if to light up their cars. Well, looking at this posture, Tang Jing had the courage to do anything wrong. . "Your Highness Jade, where are we going?" Tang Jing felt weird being watched by so many people in the car at the same time, just like the feeling when you have many dead bodies staring at you.
"The sacrificial moon pond in the center of the city."
As soon as Shui Yueyu finished speaking, a high platform appeared in Tang Jing's sight. The color of the high platform was silvery white. There was an unknown monster placed on the four corners of the high platform. These monsters seemed to be made of special materials. Although It was a decoration, but when Tang Jing saw the eyes of the four monsters, her soul was shocked, because when she saw the monster's red eyes, she felt like she wanted to worship them sincerely.
"Don't look into the eyes of these four monsters." Suddenly, a cold voice came from Tang Jing's mind, waking Tang Jing up again from her unconscious state.
"Who?" Tang Jing looked around, but there was no one around except Shui Yue Yu. However, when Tang Jing saw the shape of Shui Yue Yu next to her, she was surprised and startled, because, The pious look on Shui Yueyu's face is now less violent and smart than usual. Now he gives people a very special feeling, like, like
"Puppet~!" The voice sounded in Tang Jing's mind again.
"How do you know what I'm thinking? Who are you? Where are you?" Tang Jing asked in a low voice.
"Don't care who I am, now, you must pretend to be controlled, just like Shui Yue Yu, pious and obsessed."
Tang Jing paid attention to her surroundings. It turned out that when she was observing the monster on the high platform, their car had been pulled under the high platform. There was a square under the high platform. However, no one dared to do so easily. Stepping inside, there were only two people in Tang Jing's field of vision, one was Lord Sacrifice, and the other was His Highness Shui Yueyu, who had been completely controlled.
"Hurry, those people are coming down, and they will soon look like Shui Yue Yu." The voice seemed a little anxious.
Tang Jing was helpless. In this inexplicable empire, in order to survive for a few more seconds, she had to follow the voiceAs she was told, she lowered her head, her eyes obsessed, looking like a devout believer.
At this moment, several people slowly flew down from the high platform. Yes, they were flying, not jumping down from above. Each of them was wearing black clothes, even their heads and faces were covered in black. The cloth was covering it, creating a sharp contrast with the silvery white color. Just after they landed firmly on the ground, they did not quickly approach Tang Jing and others. Instead, they walked up to the priest and seemed to say hello like old friends.
"Hi, Master Sacrifice, long time no see." A man in black walked slowly towards Master Sacrifice.
