216.Chapter 213 Sacrifice to the Queen of Earth


Chapter 213: Sacrifice to Hou Tuhuangdi only

Let the dead ancestors return to the sun and fight for the living descendants. This is so filial. Just thinking about it makes people extremely embarrassed, let alone actually doing it.

It is normal for Su Hou to be wary and afraid to agree. After all, filial piety is of paramount importance, and disrespecting the ancestors and neglecting their sacrifices are all huge sins, let alone letting them charge into battle.

If we really do this, no matter what the outcome of this battle is, Su Hou will abdicate or even commit suicide afterwards, because he has no face to live in the world anymore.

I don’t know if this person’s proposal can solve the crisis of the Su country, but it will definitely lead to the death of Su Hou.

"The country of Su is in danger. I think our ancestors can understand our difficulties. After all, if Su is destroyed, the ancestral temple is destroyed, and the ancestors underground have no sacrifices, how can we last long?"

There are nobles He agreed and felt that this plan was feasible.

The underground ancestors have a symbiotic relationship with the above-ground countries, because their power does not come from their own hard work, but from the sacrifice of living people.

After the death of princes and nobles, they wanted to maintain their previous cultivation and even become stronger. We need descendants on earth to continue to sacrifice to them.

The richer the sacrifices and the more frequent the sacrifices, the stronger the underground ancestors will be.

Therefore, the stronger the descendants on the ground are, the stronger the ancestors are underground. On the contrary, the weaker the descendants on the ground, the weaker the ancestors underground.

It can be seen from here that the strength of the underground ancestors is all determined by the descendants on the ground, and they have no ability to resist risks.

Therefore, if the descendants on the ground are wiped out and the ancestral temple is destroyed, then the ancestors underground will become weaker and weaker without sacrifices, until their strength is exhausted, their souls are scattered, and their true spirits return to heaven and earth.

Nowadays, the country of Su is in danger. Once the country is destroyed and the ancestors in the underground lose their sacrifices, even if nothing happens for a while, it will still be hard to escape the fate of returning to heaven and earth as time goes by.

Therefore, it is completely reasonable for the Sioux City nobles to allow their underground ancestors to participate in the war. This is not for them, but for yourself. How could they end up with the Soviet Union gone?

"Then you go do it!"

Su Hou also knew that at this point, it was inevitable for the underground ancestors to join the war. But even so, he didn't want him to take the lead in this matter.

No matter how legitimate the reason is or how critical the situation is, letting your dead ancestors charge into battle is an unforgivable sin. Afterwards, the person who led the matter will definitely die, and no one can save him.

“This matter should be handled by witches!”

“Sacrifice is the duty of witches, and no one is more qualified to do this than her.”

The noble's expression remained unchanged, and he recommended a candidate to Su Hou, Su Daji, the daughter of Su Hou. Witches are priests, in charge of sacrifices, and responsible for communicating with ancestors and gods.

It is really her responsibility to handle this matter, and she cannot refuse even if she wants to.

Besides, the reason why Wu is given such a high status is just for this moment, to sacrifice for the country in exchange for the help of ancestors and gods.

“Yes!”

Su Hou was helpless, knowing that he could not refuse, so he could only grit his teeth and agree. At this moment, his willingness to join Dashang became even stronger.

It wasn't that he couldn't bear to part with his daughter, but if he could save the country of Su by sacrificing Daji, he would never hesitate.

But judging from the current situation, even if Daji is sacrificed, the most it will do is fight for a while longer, and the outcome cannot be changed.

This means that Daji’s sacrifice is meaningless. Since it makes no sense, why would he sacrifice his daughter?

After making a decision in his mind, Su Hou was ready to find an opportunity to meet Ao Bing and discuss surrender with him in person. It is best to decide this matter before the sacrificial ceremony begins.

Otherwise, once the sacrificial ceremony begins, it will be difficult to surrender.

It can be voted now because Ao Bing did not suffer much loss when he attacked the city and the hatred between the two sides is not deep.

But if ghosts and gods are invited to join the battle and the two sides become angry, then even if Ao Bing wants to accept their surrender, I am afraid that the soldiers below will not agree.

Why did the massacre happen? It was not because the general was cruel, but because the losses during the siege were too great, and the soldiers had accumulated a lot of anger and had to vent it out. Otherwise, mutiny will occur.

"I will ask the witch to come forward and prepare for the sacrifice!"

Seeing that Su Hou agreed, the nobleman did not hesitate and went directly to the ancestral temple to find Daji. Seeing this scene, Su Hou really wanted to kill him.

"The ancestors in the underground do not want to see the country overturned and the ancestral temple cut off. Therefore, they will definitely support me."

Su Hou knew in his heart that the ancestors in the underground wanted to keep Su Su even more than he did. The family's society. It can be said that they are the biggest capitulation faction.

Therefore, it is still open to question whether the underground ancestors would help them if they were Lin Fan. The greater possibility is to help the Great Shang crusade against these unfilial sons.

There are many issues that living people have to consider, but there is only one issue that dead people have to consider, and that is to keep the sacrifices going. In order to preserve the sacrifices, the underground ancestors might seek refuge with the great merchants.

A mother is a woman who has breasts. The values ​​​​of ghosts and gods are so simple. Whoever sacrifices to them will be protected by them.

In addition, they got one thing wrong. From the beginning to the end, there was no reason for the dead ancestors to fight for the living descendants.

More often, it is the living descendants who endure hardships for the sake of their dead ancestors. Because all princes and nobles will die one day.

They will eventually become a member of the ghosts and gods, so even if it is just for the sake of their aftermath, they must stand on the side of the ghosts and gods.

In this case, what would happen even if the dead ancestors were reincarnated? Rather than fighting to the death for future generations, they would rather persuade future generations to surrender so as to ensure continuous sacrifices.

There are many smart people in Su City. Maybe some people didn't understand this truth for a while, but there must be many people like Su Hou who immediately guessed the ancestor's position.

The situation in the Soviet Union has deteriorated to this point, and it is on the verge of annihilation. If even their biggest support, the underground ancestors, don’t support them, then there is no future left, so it’s better to invest as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Su Hou knew that he could no longer hesitate. If he hesitated any longer, he would not surrender on his own initiative, but would be coerced into surrender by someone with intentions. As a result, his value is bound to be greatly reduced.

“Distract your mind and turn it into your mind!”

Worrying about being beaten to the punch, Su Hou used his magical power to secretly separate his mind and meet Ao Bing to discuss his surrender.

But at this moment, outside Su City, a burst of praise suddenly came:

"Nine-flowered jade palace, the imperial palace of seven treasures. It inherits the period of destiny from heaven, governs yin and holds the handle of yang. The Tao promotes respect and contains magnificence, and virtue is stored in softness, smoothness and chastity."

"Imitate Hao's example. Heaven is the root of the beauty of Kunyuan. Yue Du is here, and the mountains and rivers are fighting. The great sage and great mercy follow the example of the emperor."

Su Hou could hear it, and he knew it. It is a tribute to Queen Tu, praising her greatness and compassion.

Empress Houtu!

As if he realized something, Su Hou's expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously raised his head and looked up at the sky. I saw a power of supreme compassion quietly emerge, covering the entire Su City.

This power was very strong and posed no threat. Even if it enveloped the entire Su City, it did not have any impact on the creatures in the city.

Because this power comes from Empress Houtu, she was the most compassionate in her life and rarely killed. Therefore, this power is harmless to the human body and simply isolates Yin and Yang.

Isolating Yin and Yang makes it impossible for the living to set foot in the underworld, and the dead unable to set foot in the Yang world. Obviously, this is for the country of Su.

The dead are still dead after all. According to the rules of heaven and earth, they must stay in the nether world honestly and are not allowed to go to the human world and disturb the order of yin and yang.

Although the power of sacrifice can open the Yin and Yang channels, allowing the dead to return to the human world, they are not excluded by the rules of the human world. But this does not change the fact that this action is illegal.

This is trampling on the order of yin and yang and disrupting the laws of heaven and earth, which will not be tolerated by heaven and earth.

Ao Bing knew that his strength was limited. If the nobles of Su City were determined to sacrifice slaves, there was nothing he could do to stop them. However, just because he can't do it, doesn't mean that others can't do it.

If you want to make a sacrifice, you must have an object to be sacrificed. As for the current situation in Su City, the only ones who dare to accept their sacrifices are the ancestors in the underground, apart from those who have transformed into evil ways.

Knowing this, the rest is simple, just make them unable to sacrifice.

Returning the dead to the earth is an act of defiance to the rules of the underworld. Ao Bing directly took advantage of this and set up an altar to offer sacrifices to the Queen Earth Emperor. He told her old man that someone wanted to use the method of sacrifice to disrupt the order of Yin and Yang and call the dead back to the Yang world.

Houtu Huangdi is the incarnation of Houtu Empress, guarding the Netherworld on her behalf and in charge of the Netherworld Avenue.

It’s okay if she doesn’t know about things like this that disrupt the order of yin and yang. Now that she knows, she must take care of it. Therefore, she directly sent down a ray of divine power to block the passage between Su City and the Netherworld.

In this way, not to mention the tens of billions of beings sacrificed by the Sioux City nobles, even the trillions of beings would not be able to contact their ancestors in the Netherworld.

No matter how bad things are in prehistoric times, there is still order. Not everything can be done. The righteous gods have no control over the sacrifice of living beings.

But it is taboo to summon the dead to the human world. In other words, Ao Bing was kind-hearted and could not see those slaves being sacrificed.

Otherwise, after the matter is confirmed and the Suzhou nobles summon their underground ancestors to the human world, Ao Bing will go to Houtu Emperor to file a complaint against them.

The Sioux City nobles involved in this matter may not end well. They will be thrown into reincarnation by Houtu Emperor and suffer the endless suffering of reincarnation.

Of course, Ao Bing also knows that even if the ancestors of the Su family really come, there is a high probability that they will not help Su City, but will in turn help Dashang.

But again, Ao Bing was kind-hearted and could not see those slaves being sacrificed. Therefore, in order to keep the slaves in the city and the ancestors of the Su family, it is better to continue to stay in the Netherworld.

"Come back, there's no need to look for Daji anymore. Ao Bing saw through our purpose and informed Houtu Emperor first. Now, Houtu Emperor's eyes have been turned to Su City."

“If we continue to sacrifice and summon our dead ancestors, the Earth Emperor will be furious. At that time, we don’t have to wait for Ao Bing to break the city, the angry Earth Emperor will pull us into reincarnation first. "

Su Hou sighed and asked the nobles who went to find Daji to come back.

Everyone in the Houtu Emperor has looked over. If they dare to continue with their previous plan, they will not only disrupt the order of Yin and Yang.

There is also a crime of contempt for the power of heaven, which directly rises to the level of unpardonable crime. There is no need to try it, and it can be killed directly.

It can only be said that Ao Bing was so shrewd that he saw through their plan and took action in advance, blocking their next possibility.

"Suhou, please surrender."

"As long as I am here, even if you want to offer sacrifices, no one will dare to accept them. Of course, you can sacrifice to the evil gods outside, and they will dare to accept them. Your sacrifices."

"It's just that the evil spirits are disrespectful to heaven, and everyone will kill them."

"If Su Cheng dares to sacrifice to them, I will dare to ask Yu. The emperor and the saints will send millions of heavenly soldiers and generals, as well as a group of Xuanmen disciples, to attack you."

"I don't need to say more about the consequences. I think you all should understand."

In the distance, Ao Bing's voice came slowly, echoing in everyone's ears.

"Long Bo is so merciful. After saying so much, he doesn't want us to sacrifice the slaves in the city. To be honest, we don't want to do this either."

"But Su City is trapped like this For a long time, resources are consumed too quickly, and we There are no extra resources to support so many slaves in the city.”

“Even if we don’t sacrifice today, we will have to kill several groups of slaves in a few days to serve as military rations to relieve the pressure in the city. .”

"So, if Long Bo really wants to be merciful, he might as well withdraw his troops. I promise that as long as Long Bo withdraws his troops, I will not keep any slaves in the city and give them all to Long Bo."

Su Hou is a smart man. After thinking for a moment, he guessed Ao Bing's purpose. Although he didn't know why Ao Bing valued the slaves in the city so much, it didn't stop him from using these slaves to negotiate terms with Ao Bing.

You are not afraid that he will value you, but you are afraid that he will not value you. Only when you have something you care about can you talk about it.

"Su Homo wants to make a joke. It's not that I can't trust you, but that you can't do it. If your words are really so useful, then the country of Su today will not be in such a disaster."< br>
Outside the city, Ao Bing smiled.

There are not even one thousandth slave in this city who belongs to Su Hou. Therefore, Su Hou dared to say that it was all given to him, but Ao Bing did not dare to believe it.

Su Hou cannot be the master of the nobles in the city, he can only be his own master.

Su Hou was silenced by Ao Bing, and his face was extremely ugly. Because what Ao Bing said was true. Although he was the master of the Su Kingdom, what he said was not easy to implement, at least not as easy as a fox.

"I won't play tricks with you. I want all the slaves in Su City. From now on, they are my people. If any of you dare to touch them, you are my enemy." .”

"No matter if you escape to Guixu or remain in chaos, I will find you, peel off your skin and file your bones, pull out your soul, and banish you to the Nine Netherworld. You will suffer the pain of splitting your soul for the rest of your life, and you will never be reincarnated."


These nobles were used to being arrogant, and it was impossible to reason with them. Ao Bing was too lazy to reason with them, and directly used the method that the nobles were best at, bullying others.

Before the city was broken, Ao Bing regarded all the slaves in the city as his own property. His words could not be described as overbearing, and his attitude could not be described as arrogant.

But that’s it, so what? Ao Bing was capable of being arrogant and domineering. Everyone in Su City was extremely angry when they saw him like this, but no one dared to speak out.

Because they all know that Ao Bing is not joking and is fully capable of turning what he says into reality.

To put it bluntly, with Ao Bing's identity, even if he is on the list of gods, it is easy to take advantage of them.

"The great merchant generals listen to the order. After the city is broken, the slaves will be mine. I will not take any of the wealth of the nobles in the city. They will all belong to you."

After talking to the nobles of Su City, Ao Bing turned around and formed a formation. Said the great businessman.

This is motivating them. After all, the soldiers risk their lives to attack the city for the wealth in the city.

Now that the slaves are gone, Ao Bing wants to leave. If they are not given some compensation, then they will see that they will not get much benefit after attacking the city, and their morale will immediately plummet.

So, Ao Bing used more precious, noble wealth to motivate them, thus maximizing their morale.

"No!"

Sure enough, after hearing Ao Bing's order, the morale of Dashang's officers and soldiers was greatly boosted, and the momentum of the black bird image they formed suddenly increased by three points.

Click!

Visible to the naked eye, a terrifying crack appeared on the wall of Su City.

The city is torn apart!

Under this ebb and flow, Su City's defense was finally reaching its limit. It is estimated that after a while, the city defense formation will be broken, and then the entire city will be disintegrated.

"Su Hou, this is my last time to persuade you to surrender. You should think carefully. If you don't surrender, after the city is broken, the slaves under your rule will be the fate of you and your family in the future."

Looking closely at Su Hou, Ao Bing made an ultimatum. Then, he waved his sleeves, and the vitality surged in the void, turning into pills and falling into Su City.

"This is the Bigu Pill. Eating it will not increase your cultivation, but it can make a mortal go without food for three years. Since the slaves in the city are already my people, I can't let you keep them."< br>
“These Bigu Pills are prepared for them.”

Give these Bigu Pills, Ao Bing said. He is not simply doing good deeds, he is trying to win people's hearts. People are lucky, it’s just a matter of how much.

One person’s luck is limited, what about a billion people, what about tens of billions of people? Their destiny together cannot be underestimated. Ao Bing's kindness to them now is essentially condensing their luck.

You must know that the largest number of slaves in Su City are slaves. If they riot, Su City will inevitably be in chaos. For Ao Bing, this was an opportunity to break the city.

"Everyone in Sioux City, don't think that I am trying to scare you. I will keep an eye on you secretly. If you dare to treat my people harshly, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."

"Don't say that. I didn’t predict what I said!”

With a final warning to everyone, Ao Bing's figure disappeared in front of everyone and returned to the camp. Then, it was just a matter of waiting for Su Hou to come to the door.

How could Su Hou hide his intention to surrender from Ao Bing? Even though the two of them had never mentioned the subject of surrender during their exchanges, they had secretly made an appointment to talk about it at night.

What to talk about? Of course we have to negotiate terms. If an agreement can be reached, the matter in Sioux City will be settled.

If not, then Ao Bing's hidden reinforcements of Dashan can take action and attack Su City at all costs until it is breached.

The first day of ten thousand days!
