Chapter 27 You Can Lose Rebellion Li Yuan Must Die
Tian Deping took out a talisman with complex patterns from his arms.
Holding it in your hand, the talisman will burn spontaneously without being lit.
Tian Deping sang in a low voice: "Great Black Wind God of Black Wind Mountain, I offer a pure sacrifice, hoping that you will see me, watch me, and listen to me."
The darkroom suddenly lit up, like it was on fire.
Immediately afterwards, several screams came from inside.
A strange light flashed, and the room became dark again, falling into dead silence.
The smell of blood wafted out from the crack in the door, giving me the illusion of entering a slaughterhouse.
Wang Wei's chest thumped, as if his heart had been grabbed hard by someone's hand.
Gao Junya's eyes widened, and he understood immediately. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he rushed forward and grabbed Tian Deping's collar:
"Rat and dog thief, what did you do?"
Tian Deping took away Gao Junya's hand and threw it away like trash.
Wang Wei was a little surprised. After all, Gao Junya had a lot of skills, so why was he so powerless in front of Tian Deping?
Tian Deping looked at this room and then at the secret room next to him, frowned and shook his head.
Wang Wei asked him: "Is it done?"
Tian Deping looked intently at the secret room without saying a word.
Gao Junya got up and stumbled into Wang Wei, pointing at the room with a ferocious expression, "You know what he is going to do... you know!"
"For the Sui Dynasty, for the Holy King,"
Wang Wei said, "Sacrifice is inevitable, and you and I are no exception."
Gao Junya laughed miserably and sat down on the ground, "You killed Xiao Liu'er too, did you know?"
Wang Wei was speechless and could only look at Tian Deping, "Is it successful or not?"
"Not enough." Tian Deping said.
"What?"
"The sacrifices are not enough."
Wang Wei was a little anxious, "You keep talking about sacrificing... this is asking God for blessings. Will God really pay attention to you?"
"There is a saying circulating in the world of awakened disciples," Tian Deping stroked the door of the secret room,
"The sacrifice is like a swarm of ants, making a strange shape on the ground - for people to see. Do you think people can see it?"
Wang Wei thought for a while and said, "If it were me, I would be able to see it, but I might not care."
"If the ants lay out on the ground,"
Tian Deping gestured something on the door with his pale fingers:
"Master Jun Cheng, what's your name?"
Wang Wei's whole body was shaken, and he felt his forehead was slapped hard, and his ears were buzzing, as if he heard the words of a god or a ghost.
He took a while before replying: "Then... I will naturally be curious."
Tian Deping smiled and said: "If the ant puts out your name and then puts out a request, for example, please give us food. Or, for example, kill the ant - will you help?"
Wang Wei was stunned.
Tian Deping replied to himself: "If it is within your ability, you will take action."
"You can give them food," Wang Wei frowned, "but if you ask me to kill other ants - I might trample them all to death."
"That depends on luck," Tian Deping said with a smile: "Not all people in the world are as hateful as you, sir. The ancient gods are even harder to guess."
"What do you think of our luck?" Wang Wei asked.
"I told you," Tian Deping looked at Gao Junya, "the sacrifices are not enough, so you can't tell."
Gao Junya sat on the floor blankly, not noticing Tian Deping's gaze at all.
Wang Wei couldn't understand it better.
What Tian Deping meant was that the ancient gods still looked down upon just a few soldiers—he had to put in a big shot.
Tian Deping suddenly walked up behind Gao Junya, strangled him by the neck, and dragged him toward that room.
Gao Junya woke up, struggled, looked at Wang Wei, and waved to him.
Wang Wei looked at him and stretched out his hands. He was about to say anything to stop him, but suddenly he thought in his heart:
"To this day, do we still have a way out? The battlefield is like a casino. All the chips are on the table. If we win, we will become the Marquis and Prime Minister, but if we lose, we will have a huge scar. General Gao Lang, I'm sorry."
Thinking like this, I turned my head and didn't look at him.
Gao Junya's eyes were so wide open that he drew out his sword and slashed back at random.
Tian Deping patted his neck, and he became motionless and quiet.
"General Gaolang," Tian Deping said, "I have wronged you - the county magistrate will ask the sage to take credit for you."
Gao Junya was dragged to the door of the darkroom like a dead man. He looked at Wang Wei like a dead man looking at a dead man.
Tian Deping opened the door of the darkroom, and the smell of blood poured into the yard like a tide.
Wang Wei took a sniff, as if he had taken a sip of thick blood. His throat was severely irritated and he coughed repeatedly.
Gao Junya was dragged into the darkroom.
Before Tian Deping closed the door, Gao Junya suddenly spoke.
Wang Wei was a little surprised - Gao Junya didn't curse, wasn't angry, or even said any words of complaint.
Gao Junya's voice was very calm: "It's okay to offer sacrifices, but you must pray for rain for the people of Taiyuan."
Gao Junya looked at the secret room next door and said, "Don't let the sacrifice be tortured."
Gao Junya's face was illuminated by the yellow light emitted by the cover in the courtyard, making her look particularly peaceful in the darkness.
Wang Wei took one last look at him, as if he were seeing a burning candle that was about to be extinguished.
Tian Deping sneered and closed the door.
Gao Junya's face melted into the still darkness.
Gao Junya's last voice came from inside the door: "We must find Li Yuan and kill him!"
"Pingni can fail," Tian Deping replied: "Li Yuan must die, right?"
There was no movement in the room. But Wang Wei seemed to feel that Gao Junya was nodding silently.
Wang Wei suddenly thought that Gao Junya had actually heard everything Tian Deping and Wang Wei whispered just now.
Gao Junya has great martial arts skills and naturally has good ears.
So, Gao Junya just now may not be able to defeat Tian Deping - he may very well want to die intentionally.
Tian Deping lit the talisman again and sang a sacrificial poem:
"The great Black Wind God from Black Wind Mountain, I offer precious sacrifices and the most steadfast sincerity, hoping that you will see me, watch me, and listen to me. Please guide me to where the enemy is and let my dagger pierce the enemy.
