Is Qihai Prison directly connected to Tianya Terrace?
Or was it the day before the Sea Festival that these prisoners, known as "sacrifice", were transferred to the interior of Tianya Terrace?
Jiang Wang didn't know the answer, but the scene before him undoubtedly told him that it was completely impossible to save people on the way to escort the prisoners. Fortunately, he did not make such a plan.
"The guilty prisoner is Zhen Yu, a true disciple of Baibao Pavilion. He colluded with the Hai Clan, secretly transferred supplies, and betrayed the clan for glory. His crime is unpardonable and he should be killed!"
A prisoner who was no longer a human being was carried onto the Tianya Platform by two black-armored soldiers. His whole body was like mud, sliding straight down.
“I am hereby guilty of being imprisoned…”
The prisoners were escorted to Tianyatai one by one, and Hai Jingping, as the elder protecting the clan, personally read out the "charges", which shows the degree of importance taken.
…
“The guilty prisoner is named Zhu Biqiong, the true disciple of Elder Bizhu of Diaohailou…”
Zhu Biqiong, with disheveled hair, was dragged up just as she was dying.
Her legs collided on the stone steps, but her whole body did not move.
“…Disobey the teacher’s kindness, ignore the feelings of fellow disciples, collude with outsiders, and murder the elders of the sect…”
Hai Jingping preached: "The sin is unpardonable and should be killed!"
The drums are still beating, but the prisoner is speechless.
“Wait a minute!”
At this moment, Jiang Wang squeezed out of the crowd and stood out.
The elders of the small sects who had been close to him before were almost shocked. They dared to speak out rashly at the sea festival ceremony. This boy is so brave!
At that time, the sea was calm under the Tianya Terrace, and the Tianya Terrace was silent.
There was only the solemn sound of drums and the solemn declaration of Hai Jingping, the elder of the Diaohailou clan.
The bright moon hangs high in the sky, shining on the people watching the ceremony on Tianya Platform.
In such a sacred and solemn atmosphere, in the hunting sea breeze, a young man stood out from the crowd.
His eyes are clean and firm, his eyebrows are delicate and neat, his thin lips are slightly pursed, and his nose is as straight as a knife.
He walked out slowly in the spotlight, firm, upright, and moving forward indomitably.
There are famous sects here, some are heads of sects, some hold several islands, some command large armies, and some even come to Dongzhen!
But he walked onto the field without any flinch or timidity.
It seemed that he was not interrupting the sea ceremony or provoking the majesty of the Diaohai Tower. He was just taking a walk in his courtyard and sighing.
Then the drumming stopped.
The black-armored soldiers also stopped. The process of escorting the prisoners up to the Tianya Platform was paused on the stone steps.
Hai Jingping stopped announcing and looked over without saying a word.
The power has arrived without saying a word.
Jiang Wang looked around calmly and said under the gaze of countless complicated eyes: "I have a question."
Zhu Biqiong, who had been hanging his head and being half-stretched, seemed to have realized what was happening in the outside world at this time.
I don’t know where the strength came from, and I raised my head suddenly!
So I saw Jiang Wang.
The first time we met, the illusion was broken, and I was panicked.
The first time they fought, he was immobilized by the tiger, and the golden chicken kicked his legs.
Just a promise, and he took off Hu Shaomeng's head and returned.
For the sake of Jingfang’s peace, I will not sleep for many days.
See him slaying a pig's face, defeating thousands of armies, and fighting a dragon's face.
I also saw him feeling sad about the story of ordinary people, being chased around by a dog guarding its puppies.
Of all the people she had seen and heard, there was no one like this.
I don’t know how to describe it, but it gave her an indescribable sense of trust. It was like when her sister was still alive... she could always trust and rely on.
When they met in prison, she struggled to ask him if they would see him again.
She hoped he could come, but she lowered her head and didn't want him to see her. This feeling was contradictory and painful.
"You're really... here." She moved her chapped lips and struggled to speak.
The voice was so weak that it seemed to have been wiped out by the sea breeze.
But Jiang Wang heard it after all.
“When a man is born, he must practice what he preaches!”
Jiang Wang did not rush forward to help her up or make any other misunderstanding actions. He just looked at Zhu Biqiong and gave her confidence and strength: "I promised you that I would kill Hu Shaomeng. So I did."
Hu Shaomeng. I promised you that I would come to see you again. So I came to see you again!"
“Enough…enough…” Zhu Biqiong murmured.
I am willing to die, she thought.
"What a man who practices what he preaches!" Hai Jingping interrupted their conversation from behind: "But I must let you know that the prerequisite for practicing what you preach is to have self-awareness. Know what things can be done and what things cannot be done.
, don’t exaggerate! Do you know what the crime is for disrupting the sea festival ceremony?"
He took a step forward and pointed his halberd at Jiang Wang. He had the aura of a strong man coming from a god, and Jiang Wang had to use his strength to stand firm: "Did you know that I can kill you on the spot!"
Hai Jingping is the actual person in charge of the Sea Sacrifice Ceremony, and it is during the process of his declaration of guilt. It can be said that at this moment, he has full authority to handle the affairs of Tianya Platform before Master Chongguang speaks.
He could directly order someone to drive Jiang Wang away, or he could personally knock Jiang Wang off Tianya Terrace. But at the same time, he could also stop and ask Jiang Wang why he was here.
There is no doubt that the previous visits have had a certain effect. :(/
Despite his stern questioning and tough attitude, he actually gave Jiang Wang a chance to defend himself.
Jiang Wang turned to face Hai Jingping and the three silent real people on the main seat, neither humble nor arrogant: "I am not trying to disrupt the Sea Festival Ceremony, on the contrary, I am trying to maintain the integrity of the Sea Festival Ceremony and let the glory of the Sea Festival Ceremony continue!"
"
“Dare to ask the elders.”
Instead, he faced Hai Jingping and walked forward: "Have all the sacrifices on the Tianya Platform committed an unpardonable sin?"
“Every piece of evidence is conclusive.” Hai Jingping stood with his hands behind his hands, looking solemn: “If you want to waste the time of the sea festival, you’d better think clearly.”
“How dare you, the younger generation, to face the heroes of the sea at this solemn moment!” Jiang Wang defended loudly and bowed deeply: “It’s just that my friend Zhu Biqiong has been wronged and must be redressed!”
"If you have any grievances, you should report them in front of the prison. Don't you think it's too late to talk about it at this ceremony?" Hai Jingping slapped Jiang Wang in the air, sending Jiang Wang flying: "Come down with me!"
He angrily rebuked: “If you dare to make noise again, you will surely die!”
In the stands on both sides, Xu Xiangqian and Li Longchuan stood up almost at the same time. However, the former was pulled by Yan Fu, and the latter was pushed down by Li Fengyao.
Yan Fu and Li Fengyao, who were more calm-tempered, obviously saw something.
Hai Jingping's slap was not fatal, but he did not hold back. Facing those who interfered with the Hai Festival, this was necessary, and could even be said to be the minimum lesson.
Jiang Wang was slapped to the ground without any suspense.
He could not resist the coming of God to the powerful, and he did not resist.
So he was indeed injured.
He was seriously injured.
But he only calmed down for a while after falling to the ground, then got up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and walked back to the court resolutely.
It was as if he didn’t even hear that sentence and he was going to die.
“This lord!”
He still faced Hai Jingping directly, and still loudly said: "I often hear about coming to the sea. I heard that the sacrifice to the sea is actually not the sea, but the heroic spirits who died at sea!"
“I want to ask, why are those heroic spirits fighting?”
“Isn’t it that they died at sea so that one day their compatriots would not have to die in vain like this?
"I have a grievance, why can't I defend it? Justice is covered in dust, why can't it be upheld!"
He looked around and faced everyone on the Tianya Stage: "Is it possible to use innocent blood to sacrifice the heroes on their way home?"
