Chapter 48: Purple Scales Reappear
The two walked down the steps side by side, and a light blue light suddenly lit up around them, illuminating the dark passage made of unknown stone.
If Liu Wei followed him, he would be shocked to find that this step was also level 777!
The entrance behind slowly disappeared, and the entire passage was completely covered by light green light.
Ferrero walked in front with a serious expression, and Ramanda's body following him actually trembled slightly, as if there was something at the end of the stairs that made her extremely scared.
Finally, one of Ferrero's feet stepped onto the plain ground.
He hesitated for a while, and finally stretched out his hands and pushed open the stone door in front of him.
A gap had just appeared in the stone gate, and a dark purple light instantly shot on Ferrero's body.
Ferrero's body trembled gently, and blue-black blood vessels erected on his arms.
The stone door was finally completely opened, and the dark purple light instantly swallowed the light green light in the passage, and a huge space appeared in the eyes of Ferrero and Ramanda.
"call……"
Ferrero exhaled a long breath of turbid air, stepped through the stone gate, and walked into the space that seemed to have no end.
Although Ramanda, who was following behind him, was unable to see his expression on his face, his big eyes were filled with hatred and fear.
Finally, a statue more than two meters high appeared in the eyes of Ferrero and the others.
The statue emits a dark purple light throughout, dazzling and dazzling.
The outline of the statue is very blurry, and it can be seen that it is a woman, but she gives people infinite oppression.
Ferrero stood two or three meters in front of the statue, bowed and muttered some unintelligible language.
Ramanda stood a little behind on Ferrero's right, and also bent her body, muttering something in her mouth.
After almost half an hour, the purple light in the space gradually darkened and the statue gradually fell to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Ferrero finally breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his body, and said to Ramanda in a deep voice:
"Go to inform all the elders of the family that after twelve hours, they will bring 777 newborn children here to prepare for the sacrifice."
Ramanda exclaimed instantly, raised her head in disbelief, and stared at Ferrero with wide eyes:
"Commander Ferrero! You said a hundred years ago that there will be no sacrifices in the future!"
There was a deep sense of helplessness in Ferrero's eyes, and his voice was full of bitterness:
"Ramanda, do you think I am willing to do this? On the day I became the patriarch, my father brought me here and pointed to the statue and told me that this is the guardian god of Qingming. The hope of our family will be sacrificed once every hundred years."
As he said that, he slowly turned to the statue, staring at the purple scales that had dimmed on the statue's chest and continued:
"I remember that at that time, there were three such scales on this statue. Five hundred years ago, I participated in the sacrificial ceremony for the first time. I watched the blood of 777 newborn children in the clan's elders poured on the statue, but were completely absorbed by the statue. Do you know the shock I was at that time?"
As Ferrero spoke, his expression began to become distorted.
"But after that time, a scale fell off from the body of the statue. The scale eventually turned into a spiritual plant cultivation base. Even the ancient gangsters could not understand the situation. Two hundred years ago, for the second sacrifice, the second scale fell off, and we used that scale to cultivate the Qingming pine cone! Now, this is the last piece, and it is the real last time!"
Tears slowly spilled out of Ramanda's eyes, and she said in a choked voice:
"So you knew early in the morning that it was not the last time! Two hundred years ago, you were just lying to me!"
Ferrero's expression instantly became ferocious and he roared in a shrill voice:
"Yes! I'm just lying to you! But I'm for Qingming Star! Not myself! At the beginning, if it weren't for your mother, that ignorant woman, she took advantage of my unpreparedness to attack the falling scales and knocked down a piece of fragments and escaped to the earth. Now, our Qingming Song Cone may be a three-star mid-grade one!"
Ramanda's body slowly knelt on the ground, and light green tears fell on the ground one by one, gathering into a pool of clear streams, slowly flowing towards the statue.
Her voice slowly changed from sadness to cold, as cold as a question from Jiuyou:
"You killed my brother, her only son in a thousand years. Wouldn't she be allowed to resist?"
At this time, Ferrero was as crazy as he immediately roared:
"No! Why should she resist? This is a major event in the life and death of Qingmingxing and the Iron Blood Clan. Can it not resist the life of her son?! Every year, millions and tens of millions of tribe members become cannon fodder and slaves of others. Everything I do is for our tribe members and for our civilization to continue!"
Ramanda smiled, her smile desperately and desolately. She slowly wiped off a teardrop from the corner of her eyes and said lightly:
"If that's not the case, what do you think I'm doing?"
Ferrero's expression frightened.
Originally, he thought that Ramanda's loyalty was entirely derived from his love and loyalty to him, but now he found that Ramanda's loyalty was Qingming, not him Ferrero!
After a while, Ramanda slowly stood up and said calmly:
"Commander Ferrero, I will convey your order to all the elders of the clan, I will leave first."
Looking at Ramanda's slowly disappearing back, Ferrero sighed a long time, looked at the statue deeply, and then turned around and walked out of the stone door.
He did not see that the tears of Ramanda falling to the ground had flowed to the statue and quickly penetrated into it...
In the endless void, a purple figure sat cross-legged, and strands of light purple aura kept approaching it and quietly sank into its body.
The purple light that kept flashing in her body reflected her face, which was the "Qin Qing" that Liu Wei had seen at the bottom of the pyramid!
Suddenly, "Qin Qing" suddenly jumped up as if it was burned by fire, and she kept scolding:
"Bastard! Damn! Who is it?! This disgusting kindness! The tears of the crocodile! Ignorance creature! Ah! Ah!…”
When Ferrero appeared in the garden again, he brought his original peace and walked towards the palace.
This is the first time Liu Wei has eaten the "meal" here after he has been here for so long.
There is no oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, or frying, cooking and frying. All the plants on the table are all kinds of plants.
Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, all the components of plants seem to be food here.
Although it has not been processed and cooked, it tastes very delicious.
Liu Wei never thought that "eating grass" could make people full.
In fact, before he tasted every food, he was so full that he could not eat it at all.
He put down the cyan "chopsticks" in his hand that could automatically hold the food, and said to Ferrero with a smile:
"Thanks to General Ferrero for his kind hospitality. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I have another thing to bother with the general."
Ferrero paused the "chopsticks" in his hand, looked at Liu Wei and said:
Chapter completed!
