Volume 10 Seven Weapons: Angry Pony Chapter 290 Grand Sacrifice
People have a very magical way of thinking, which is that they will deceive themselves.
If a person wants to do something, and this thing happens to be unreasonable and should not be done, he will try every possible means to find other reasons to convince himself.
And these countless reasons often bury the real reasons, so deeply that even he himself believes them to be true.
Only in this way can he completely convince himself.
Su Weiyun suddenly had a bad feeling. He felt that Lan Lan seemed to have fallen into this vicious circle.
Lan Lan seemed to see Su Weiyun's doubts and smiled, "Don't worry, I'm just trying it out to experience the feeling. I won't be like them."
Su Weiyun sighed, "I hope so."
Zhu Yun noticed the embarrassment of the two people, coughed a few more times, and said, "I heard that Taiping Inn burned down. You two don't have a place to stay yet, right?"
He led the three of them along the path and came to the wooden houses. He said, "I am the host here. These houses are empty. If you two don't mind, you can stay here for a few days."
The time gradually entered the afternoon.
The sun sets in the west, shining on the falling petals. The scene is indescribably peaceful.
Su Weiyun suddenly said: "It's almost time, we should go to Sun Lake."
Liu Changjie said: "That's right, otherwise someone else would die by the lake."
Zhu Yun's pale face suddenly flushed with a sickly red, and he asked in surprise: "Could it be that they..."
"Every fifteenth day is a big sacrifice." Su Weiyun said, "And they choose to sacrifice their lives!"
When Zhu Yun heard this, he covered his chest and coughed continuously, with his waist bent.
Finally, he said, "I'll go with you!"
…
The back mountain of Langshan.
Valley, Sun Lake.
It is difficult for those who have not been to Sun Lake at this time to imagine what the scene is like here.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines obliquely.
Young boys and girls knelt around the lake, forming a big circle, with their hands clasped in front of their chests, their expressions serious and solemn.
Every five breaths, they would slowly touch the ground with their heads, showing utmost piety.
The sun slowly set, and the playful wolves performed what they called the Great Sacrifice Ceremony towards the Sun Lake in a strange rhythm.
The girl that Su Weiyun and Liu Changjie saw yesterday was also among them.
And in the middle of the lake, there was a small boat floating.
The small boat was not far away, and was coated with a layer of golden light by the sunlight, faint, thin, and hazy, as if it was in a dream.
There was also a naked girl on the boat, who looked like she was carved out of jade, and a handsome, strong boy.
The girl was surrounded by flowers, which bloomed in the sunshine, colorful and extremely brilliant.
The sun's rays also shone on her. She stared blankly at the west, looking dazed, as if she was fascinated by something.
Su Weiyun, Liu Changjie, Zhu Yun and Lan Lan watched from a distance and did not step forward immediately.
Liu Changjie said: "The boy and girl on the boat in the center of the lake are the sacrifices they chose this time?"
Su Weiyun stared for a long time and said slowly: "I think I know that girl."
Liu Changjie asked in surprise: "Do you know him?"
Su Weiyun said, "Her name is Du Ruolin. She was originally a subordinate of Baili Changqing. No wonder she didn't show up when I competed with Gui Dongjing. It turns out that she was sent to Langshan."
Zhu Yun said: "Then...then how did this girl get along with the wolves..."
Su Weiyun smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid you'll have to ask her herself."
Liu Changjie nodded and asked simply, "When do we start?"
Su Weiyun thought for a moment and said, "Zhu Yun and I will go fight them first, and you go directly to the boat to rescue them!"
The wolves playing around Sun Lake all took off their clothes gradually, revealing their healthy wheat-colored skin.
The girls covered their important parts with flowers and lay quietly by the lake, enjoying the last scorching heat of the sun without saying a word.
The man on the boat stood up and slowly walked towards Xiaolin.
"Get started!"
Su Weiyun and Liu Changjie rushed out and rushed into the crowd in an instant.
"Who! Who dares to disrupt our sacrifice?"
"The Sun God will punish you!"
“…”
The playful wolves were in a commotion and wanted to attack Su Weiyun one after another!
At this time, Zhu Yun, wearing a mink coat, walked out slowly: "I, I am the one who wants to ruin this sacrifice!"
The girls were still lying on the ground, and although they were nervous, they did not get up.
All the men in the Playful Wolf Group looked at the newcomer, and the leading man uttered two words.
" Zhu Yun!"
Zhu Yun said: "It's me. I haven't seen you for many years. You have all changed."
The playful wolves all shook their heads and said, "It's not us who have changed, but you. You said you wanted to see the outside world and take us all with you, but you never came back!"
They were childhood friends and had a pretty good relationship back then.
Zhu Yun said: "I came back this time to take you out of the mountains and see the world outside."
The leading man said, "No need. We have found the Sun God and the truth. There is no need to go anywhere else, and we don't want to go anywhere else."
While the man was speaking, Liu Changjie suddenly rose high up like a divine dragon, swayed a few times in the air, and leaped above the water.
Liu Changjie tapped the water surface lightly with his toes, causing shallow ripples, and his body flew onto the boat.
The skill of "walking on water" alone is enough to shock everyone!
Whoosh, whoosh!
He casually pressed the acupuncture points of the two people on the boat, then summoned his true energy and said loudly: "The sacrifice you chose is in my hands. You must end this sacrifice."
The wolves were horrified and shouted, "Don't hurt our Godson and Goddess!"
Even the girls who were lying flat on the grass by the lake straightened up and screamed in fear.
"Zhu Yun, what on earth do you want to do? Return the Son of God and the Goddess to us!"
Zhu Yun sighed, "I can't influence that gentleman's mind. If you can beat him, he might let you go."
The playful wolves looked at each other in bewilderment and hesitated for a while . Someone shouted enthusiastically, "For the glory of the sun god, anyone who obstructs the sacrifice must die!"
Then, all the wolves raised their hands: "For the glory of the Sun God!"
"For the glory of the Sun God!"
They were roaring almost crazily, and some of them had already jumped into the water, intending to swim to the boat and rescue their son and daughter of God.
Liu Changjie said calmly: "If you dare to move again, your Son of God and Goddess will die right in front of you!"
His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.
Suddenly, no wolf dared to move anymore.
"Why did you ruin our sacrifice? Who are you?!"
Before Liu Changjie could answer, Lan Lan suddenly stood up and said, "Let's make an exchange, okay?!"
"What exchange?"
Lan Lan said: "Your God Son and God Daughter will temporarily live on the top of Wolf Mountain, and I will live in your valley as a hostage."
She unexpectedly made a strange request.
