Chapter 340 (1/2)
After reading the message, the high priest bent his knees and fell to his knees.
Other orcs also knelt on their knees.
All of a sudden, the whole place only left slowly White Emperor Xueling and Xuanwei four people still standing.
Some people looked at them, their eyes were not happy.
Slowly, the four men had to kneel down, which made those people take back their sight.
The high priest carefully dipped the black wood in the water, then faced the tree and bowed respectfully, his forehead against the grass.
”May the tree bless the city of Shenmu for peace and harmony, and life will never disappear!”
All the orcs cried out in unison: ”may the tree bless the city of Shenmu!”
Slowly four people are mixed in inside, feeling a little embarrassed.
Although she had held sacrifices before, she never asked others to kneel, let alone shout slogans like this.
However, compared with her sacrifice, this sacrifice was obviously more like feudal superstition.
See how much these orcs believe in the high priest.
She laughs at herself slowly. It seems that her method of promoting superstition is too weak. In the future, she will have to learn more from Bihuan and strive to be a better God stick!
When the high priest stood up, the other beasts stood up.
The high priest took the wood out of the water, wrapped it carefully with the gauze, and gave it to his heart.
The water in the basin was called holy water, and the high priest distributed it to everyone in spoonfuls.
The orcs took out the wooden bowls they had already prepared and lined up to receive holy water.
The orcs who received the holy water were very excited. Some of them were impatient and drank the holy water on the spot. Some were reluctant to drink it now. They took it back carefully and planned to save it for slow drinking.
Slowly in order to join the fun, also took a bowl to get a bowl of holy water.
She sniffed at it. The water had no smell.
When no one is paying attention, he slowly lowered his voice and asked, ”is this water really drinkable?”
It's not sure that the holy wood can drink water
”Divine wood?” Slowly Zheng next, ”you mean that piece of black wood just now?”
”Well.”
Slowly very surprised: ”the original divine wood is black?”
”Shenmu is not black originally. It turned black after being burned by fire.”
Slowly more puzzled: ”that piece of sacred wood was burned by fire?”
Xueling patiently explained: ”I don't know about the specific process. I just heard that after the Shenmu withered, the Shenmu family suffered a great disaster. Even the dead trees left by Shenmu could not escape the disaster. Most of the dead trees were burned to ashes, and only a few of them were preserved.”
Slowly listen to do not understand: ”so it is.”
Finally, she still couldn't drink the bowl of water. When people didn't pay attention to it, she put the bowl of holy water into the space and took it out later.
After the sacrifice was completed, the orcs returned to the city and rushed in another direction.
Slowly do not understand what they are going to do, just meet Xuehui, under the inquiry, they know that they are going to the palace to see the king of beasts.
Slowly for the first time, I knew that visiting the king of beasts could become one of the customs of a festival.
The White Emperor knew a little about it.
He said: ”I heard that the king of beasts in Shenmu city is not in good health. He seldom shows up in front of outsiders. His officials deal with the affairs in the city. In a year, only on the day of Zhaohua Festival, the king of beasts will come forward and accept the worship of his subjects. ”
Slowly thought: ”how do you feel that the king of beasts in Shenmu city is like a prophet, they are all in bad health and do not like to go out.”
