Chapter 25 The Ritual
As dawn broke in the sky, the basic arrangement of the star array was finally completed.
Mo Qing held the last ice marble in his hand and went down the mountain with Zhou Han.
As long as this ice marble does not return to its position, even the star array will not be complete and cannot be sensed.
Before they returned to the village, noise had already reached their ears.
Not far outside the village, they reunited with Yao and Chong.
"All is ready except for the opportunity."
Zhou Han said this with a smile, and Yu Luoxia and Lu Linxi looked much better.
Yao Chong smiled and said: "Did you set up a formation?"
Mo Qing smiled and nodded, and said, "After the Star Formation is broken, it's up to you."
"Lian Xing Formation?" Although Yu Luoxia didn't pay much attention to the paths of these Fa Sect practitioners at home, she had also heard some rumors about this formation, such as the formation eye. She heard Mo Qing briefly explain some of the uses of this formation.
After setting up the altar, I couldn't help but ask, "What should Xun Hao do?"
"Xun Hao?"
Zhou Han couldn't help but laugh. As expected, this guy still couldn't bear the pleading of Village Chief Sang and became the scapegoat.
He probably left before dawn.
I think Sister Chun has demolished the pharmacy now.
Thinking about how Xun Hao would be treated if he returned alive, a smile appeared on Zhou Han's face.
Mo Qing repeatedly warned him not to make that suggestion with his eyes, but Zhou Han seemed not to notice and continued: "I will replace him and become the main formation eye."
Yu Luoxia was shocked and shouted: "How can this be done!"
Lu Linxi said helplessly: "Brother Zhou, you... are taking too many risks."
Zhou Han didn't understand why Yu Luoxia had to contradict him every time, so he explained: "My ice marbles are the one who arranges the Star Array. I am the most suitable one in it, and there won't be any problems."
"That is a two-hundred-year-old demon with a cultivation level of no less than seventh level." Yu Luoxia looked at him with a complex expression, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted, "Can you think about it for yourself?"
"I have thought about it, this is the best way." Zhou Han was a little angry because of her, and with a flick of his sleeves, he roughly made the whole plan, "The festival should be about to start, let's hurry up and follow."
Yu Luoxia's body was trembling, and she was almost in tears. She gritted her teeth, took out the Mingxia stick, and quickly followed.
Lu Linxi was closest to her and could completely hear her heavy breathing.
Yu Luoxia's internal injuries have long since recovered. Traveling at this level was not enough to make her breathing so heavy. It could only be caused by anger.
Lu Linxi glanced at Zhou Han helplessly, thinking that you really don't know how to evaluate me.
…
Zhou Han and the others were not in a hurry, because the sounds of the ceremony were still lingering in the mountains, and offering sacrifices should be the last step, and they did not want their spiritual power to flow out and be discovered by the five-tailed red fox.
When they arrived at the altar, the villagers were still singing and dancing, chanting something unknown, most of which were prayers to pray to the gods.
Village Chief Sang was leaning on a cane and tremblingly reciting an article praying for the mountain god's blessing. However, the joy on his wrinkled face could not be concealed.
Xun Hao was sandwiched between two middle-aged villagers. Looking at the scene in front of him, he felt unexpectedly calm.
If you look carefully, this calmness is actually sluggishness.
Sister Chun didn't come today, and locked him out of the pharmacy angrily.
He didn't know what was going on, so he was always in a trance.
Why doesn't Sister Chun want to listen to him? It's obvious that he just doesn't want Xiao Shu to die. Anyway...
He didn't realize that Village Chief Sang would look at him from time to time. There was no gratitude in his eyes, only ridicule.
"hypocritical."
Yu Luoxia looked at that old face and said bitterly.
Yao Chong nodded and said: "It is indeed hypocritical."
In order to let her granddaughter survive, she would let others die on her behalf at any cost, and she still pretended to be a holy and just person. No one could stand it.
He didn't like this behavior very much.
"Please, Lord Mountain God, bless our village with good weather, peace and health this year."
After Village Chief Sang recited the last sentence very emotionally, he turned his head and said to the two strong men: "Offer the sacrifice!"
Xun Hao did not see the ferocious smile on his face and allowed the two strong men to tie him to the wooden pillar.
After completing this final step, the villagers breathed a long sigh of relief, and then fled the altar as quickly as possible.
Lu Linxi said sincerely: "It seems that hypocrisy is not enough to describe them."
"Don't worry about it for now." Zhou Han said softly, "I'm afraid the five-tailed red fox will come soon, so hurry up."
He jumped out, very
Come to Xun Hao quickly.
When Xun Hao saw this guest he had been with for seven days, his eyes widened in surprise. Before he could say anything, he was knocked unconscious with a knife and the rope was completely untied.
"Good skills." Zhou Han dragged Xun Hao away, gave Lu Linxi a meaningful look, and stood at Xun Hao's original position.
Lu Linxi sighed, quickly tied him to a wooden post, and said, "I hope your mind-gazing skills are equally good."
Zhou Han knew that he was talking about Yu Luoxia.
He has broken Yu Luoxia's heart too many times, but he still doesn't know why.
He looked towards the bushes not far away and saw Yu Luoxia turning her face away, so he could only smile helplessly.
Lu Linxi patted his shoulder and said, "Don't get hurt, otherwise she will really hit you."
…
Lu Linxi brought Xun Hao back to everyone, and with the small formation drawn by Mo Qing hiding his aura, he believed that the five-tailed red fox could not sense them at all.
Zhou Han stood alone in the center of the altar, looking a little lonely.
He was just like an ordinary person at this time, with no spiritual power revealed around him.
As if he felt something, his face suddenly became extremely frightened and uneasy, as if his back was about to be firmly stuck to the wooden pillar.
Not far away, Lu Linxi chuckled unkindly: "This acting is amazing, just like the real thing."
Yao Chong looked calmly in the direction of the altar, his right hand already holding the hilt of the sword.
Zhou Han chose to go deep alone, and he chose to believe in him.
All he can do now is just watch and wait for the target to appear.
A middle-aged man appeared on the mountain road at an unknown moment. His extremely curved eyes were narrowed to a slit, and he looked very human at first glance.
Mo Qing had seen the human form of the five-tailed red fox. He recognized it at a glance and said softly: "Here he comes."
The five-tailed red fox did not notice their arrangement and strolled leisurely in front of Zhou Han. He sniffed in front of Zhou Han and was very satisfied with the quality of the sacrifice.
"I didn't expect that these idiots could actually have descendants with such good bones. If I eat you, my cultivation will definitely go further."
Zhou Han was originally shrinking, but when he heard this, he raised his head, calmly looked directly into the eyes of the five-tailed red fox, and then asked seriously: "The blood feeding method?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the rope around Zhou Han broke apart inch by inch.
He stretched out his finger and touched the chest of the five-tailed red fox.
Chapter completed!
