Just as Qin Yang secretly gritted his teeth, Liu Yuewei next to him asked curiously, making him stunned for a moment.
But he understood the next moment.
It was obvious that Liu Yuewei had just entered Dark Fragrance City a few days ago, and had just successfully mutated, so she might not know more than herself.
Qin Yang learned about the sacrifice from the little wild cat because he saved it.
But Liu Yuewei probably hasn't left the city lord's mansion in the past few days, so naturally no one took the initiative to tell him.
"Yuewei, you should have noticed Ziyue Lian Shen last night, right?"
When Kong Ji said this, although he was asking Liu Yuewei, he glanced at Qin Yang, as if he meant something.
"Although there have been some changes in the Purple Moon God Refining this month, the energy of the God's Sun has been consumed after all, so the energy of the God's Sun needs to be replenished."
Kong Ji turned his gaze back to Liu Yuewei's face. These words were actually introducing the origin of the sacrifice to Hong Gui. After all, they didn't know that Qin Yang already knew about the sacrifice.
"After each Purple Moon God Refining, it is necessary to replenish the energy of the God Sun. This is the so-called sacrificial ceremony, also known as the sacrificial night!"
Hearing these words from Kong Ji's mouth, Liu Yuewei nodded seemingly calmly.
In fact, Qin Yang's powerful mental power caused him to sense something unusual.
Therefore, he can be sure that after Liu Yuewei learned about this incident, she was definitely not as calm as she seemed on the surface. After all, she was someone who came in from the outside world.
In the early feudal society of ancient Bactria, the bad custom of burying or offering sacrifices to living people was also practiced, but it has long since been abolished and is deeply abhorred by modern people.
I didn't expect that such a tragic thing could happen in the Dark Fragrance City deep underground.
This made the two people who saw this kind of thing for the first time extremely uneasy.
"Haha, you just came to Anxiang City, so you may not be used to this kind of thing, but you will naturally get used to it if you see it more in the future."
The man next to him smiled, but he didn’t think much about it.
Perhaps in their hearts, nothing is more important than replenishing the energy of the Divine Sun.
At this moment, Kong Ji, who had been sitting in his chair, suddenly stood up.
He first looked up at the position of the moon in the sky, and then turned his attention to the sacrifices.
"The time has come, let's start offering sacrifices!"
Following Kong Ji's loud voice, each "sacrifice" was escorted by two guards behind them, and each walked to a tall pillar.
Then these sacrifices were tied to the pillars respectively. Most of the sacrifices did not resist at all, as if they had accepted their fate.
"Ah!"
But at the next moment, a shrill voice suddenly resounded from in front of a certain pillar.
Then one of the sacrifices pushed away a guard, spread his legs and ran towards the outside of the square.
"Asshole!"
The guard was shocked when he saw this, and even more fear arose in his heart.
Because he knew that if something like this happened, he would definitely be punished by the city lord.
It seems that not all of the ten humanoid sacrifices have accepted their fate, and some want to resist.
Just seeing his actions, Qin Yang and Liu Yuesheng couldn't help but slowly shook their heads.
You must know that the guards of the City Lord's Mansion are at least as strong as the First Image Realm, and there are so many of them.
It would be a fantasy for an ordinary person to escape from here.
The guard just caught him by surprise, and he didn't expect that these sacrifices would dare to resist, so he was caught off guard.
When he reacted, he caught up with the sacrifice in just a few steps.
Snap!
A slap in the face sent the sacrifice spinning around in circles several times, causing stars to shine in his eyes, and he fell to the ground, his head buzzing.
"If you dare to run away again, I...I..."
The guard wanted to threaten the other party, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say, and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
Because whether it is to directly beat the opponent to death or make the opponent's life worse than death, this guard will not dare.
This is a sacrifice, if there is any damage, he will not be able to eat it and carry it around.
But apart from that, what else can you do to threaten the other party?
After a while, the sacrifice finally came to his senses.
His face was full of panic, as if he was extremely afraid of those pillars and was unwilling to take a step there.
"Sir, Lord City Lord, I...I am not the sacrifice registered this time. Can you let me go?"
Hearing the man's loud plea for mercy, Qin Yang couldn't help but feel his heart move, thinking that this should be the new sacrifice added after the little wild cat escaped.
In a sense, Qin Yang indirectly made this person a new sacrifice, but he didn't feel too guilty.
This is a sinful city. Qin Yang's abilities are limited, and he can only save the people he wants to save.
As for whether after rescuing people, other people will be harmed, he has no control over it.
I can only blame this young man for his unlucky life. He was born in this evil city, entered this evil world, and was unlucky enough to be caught and charged.
Perhaps when Qin Yang's strength grows enough to defeat all the invincible opponents in Anxiang City, he will use his own power to change the world, but it is definitely not now.
"Humph!"
Just when the guard was hesitating, a cold snort from the city lord Kong Ji suddenly came, making him shiver smartly and not daring to delay at all.
This hesitation is a small matter, but it delays the auspicious time of the sacrifice and is a big deal.
If the sacrifice has not been tied up at that time, maybe it is not impossible for him to become a new sacrifice in the First Image Realm.
After turning these thoughts in his mind, the guard did not dare to be negligent at all, and walked towards the last pillar carrying the sacrifice.
The sacrifice tried to struggle a few times, but this time he couldn't break free no matter what, and could only watch as he was tied to the pillar.
Qin Yang looked up at the sky and saw that the full moon had reached the center and seemed to be emitting a special and strange aura.
"The divine sun is high in the sky, and the moon is offering sacrifices, Qi!"
At the same time, a loud shout came from the mouth of the city lord Kong Ji again, and then he seemed to tap lightly somewhere.
Click! Click! Click!
Sounds like gears turning were heard, and then the entire altar began to work as if a huge machine had been activated.
Even standing nearby, Qin Yang felt his feet shaking.
Then he saw the large and small circles in the altar, which seemed to be rotating according to certain rules.
The ten pillars surrounding the altar also began to rotate.
The ten sacrifices that were tied to the pillars all had pale faces, as if they had guessed their upcoming fate.
