Chapter 186: Choose the five internal organs or the six internal organs?
In the main hall.
Hearing what the emperor said, the great master dressed as a Taoist priest hurriedly stepped forward.
Under the gaze of civil and military officials, he slowly spoke.
Sung: "When Yong Yong comes, he will be solemn and solemn, and he will defend the public. The emperor Mu Mu will recommend Guang Mu and worship each other."
Although the sacrificial words sung by the Imperial Master are obscure and difficult to understand, with the experience accumulated by living for thousands of years, Xie Shen can still barely understand the main idea:
The first four sentences of the sacrificial words in this paragraph are in Describes the solemnity of the court and the dignified appearance of the emperor and civil and military officials.
The last two sentences indicate that he will offer fat sacrifices to the sky.
Hmm.
So far, everything is pretty normal.
Xie Shen stood there without saying a word, and quietly watched the performance of the national master.
Not long after.
When the Imperial Master read out the last line of the sacrificial words, "Bless Liekao, but also Bless Wenmu", a vision suddenly appeared above the court.
The skull of an unknown creature that looked like a human but not a human, a beast but not a beast, appeared out of thin air above the head of the Imperial Master.
What is this thing?
Considering the skull, it is most likely related to the unnameable creatures native to this planet.
Because he was worried that it would attract the attention of the unspeakable creature, Xie Shen did not dare to use his spiritual consciousness to explore, but just raised his head and glanced at the skull.
——From the appearance alone, it was difficult for him to see what the mystery of the skull was, so he still stood there and remained silent.
After successfully summoning the skull, the national master rushed to the crowd and said, "Bye!"
As soon as he said this.
Everyone, including the emperor who was sitting on the main seat of the main hall, knelt down and kowtowed to the skull.
Xie Shen didn’t want to come forward at this moment.
Seeing that nothing unusual happened after everyone knelt down, he knelt on the ground and pretended to bow down as well.
After this series of procedures were completed, strong men were seen carrying an offering table to Xie Shen under the command of the national master.
The Imperial Master took two steps forward and said to Xie Shen: "First Prince, please choose. Are you going to sacrifice the five internal organs or the six internal organs?"
Sacrifice?
Xie Shen was stunned when he heard this.
He tried to find content related to the sacrifice from the memory fragments left by the original owner.
However, I discovered that the people around the original owner, Yan Biao, had always been secretive about the sacrifice and almost never took the initiative to talk about related topics.
In the main hall.
Seeing that Xie Shen stayed there silently, the Imperial Master said again.
“Although His Highness was born in an imperial family, his status is respected.”
“But the more so, the more we should set an example.”
“Otherwise. ”
“If even the prince is unwilling to make sacrifices, then shouldn’t everyone in our Kingdom of Zhou be able to follow suit?”
"Isn't it true that everyone can just live an ignoble existence?"
From the words of the Imperial Master, Xie Shen extracted two important pieces of information.
First:
It is not difficult to see that sacrifice is obviously not a good thing.
No matter whether it is Yan Biao, the eldest prince, or the people of Ming Dynasty in the Great Zhou Kingdom, no one is willing to take the initiative to offer sacrifices.
Second:
Although sacrifice is harmful.
But for some unknown reasons, everyone, including the eldest prince, had to take the initiative to sacrifice.
After figuring out the key.
Xie Shenchong asked the Imperial Master: "Is there any difference between sacrificing the five internal organs or the six internal organs?"
As soon as this statement came out.
Before the Imperial Master could speak, the emperor on the main seat said angrily: "This is nonsense!"
"As the eldest prince, you didn't do your homework beforehand."
“Now that the crowning ceremony has begun, you haven’t even thought about which parts to sacrifice.”
“Do you really treat the crowning ceremony as child’s play?”
"Your Majesty, calm down!" Seeing the emperor reprimanding Xie Shen, the Imperial Master hurriedly comforted him: "The crowning ceremony is the most important thing in a person's life."
"I think your Highness, the eldest prince, must have done his homework in advance. ”
“But the internal organs are added together. After all, there are a total of eleven kinds of organs.”
“The eldest prince’s young mind is understandable if he fails to remember all the consequences of sacrificing eleven kinds of organs.”
After hearing this explanation from the imperial master, the emperor's expression softened.
It seems that he doesn't intend to pursue it any further.
Then the imperial master turned to Xie Shen and said: "Your Highness, please listen carefully: the five internal organs of the human body are the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys."
"Sacrifice" The consequences of these five organs are: frustration, weakness, sickness, shortness of breath and color decline."
He continued.
“As for the six fu organs, they are the large and small intestines, gallbladder, stomach, bladder, and triple burner.”
"The consequences of sacrificing these six things are: eating without taste, fear and restlessness, gluttony, hunger and thirst, and loss of touch."
At the end, I did not forget to ask: "Can you hear me clearly, Your Highness? ”
Although the Imperial Master did not go into details, he only used a few words to explain the consequences of sacrificing the internal organs.
But even if it is just a few words, it is not difficult to see from it: no matter which part of the internal organs is chosen, the sacrificer will surely suffer great torture in the future.
If the consequences of this kind of sacrifice would only affect Yan Biao's body.
That doesn't matter to Xie Shen.
But what if
What if this kind of sacrifice would indirectly affect his body?
For example, Xie Shen chose to sacrifice his liver.
Then it is likely that not only Yan Biao's body will lose his liver, but Xie Shen's body will also permanently lose this organ.
This is absolutely unacceptable to him.
Considering this, Xie Shen tried to ask the Imperial Master: "Then if I choose nothing and do not make a sacrifice, what will be the consequences?"
"Your Highness Why do you ask this question suddenly?" The Imperial Master said with confusion on his face: "Even if His Highness didn't do anything. I have been out of the palace, but I think I have heard about it from other people.”
“After the women have passed the year of hairpin ceremony, and the men have passed the year of crown ceremony, they still have not made sacrifices. ”
“Then God will bring disaster. ”
"At that time, everything around those who have not been sacrificed."
"Including people, including birds and beasts, birds, wood, insects, and rocks, these will quickly decay and wither, and no one will be spared."
" This has been true throughout the ages. ”
"There has never been an exception."
Speaking of this, the national preceptor said with a hint of threat in his tone, and said to Xie Shen: "His Royal Highness will inherit the country and become the king of a country in the future. You don’t even dare to sacrifice? ”
Xie Shen really didn’t dare.
He would rather this invasion fail, rather do nothing, rather be forced to return, than carry out the so-called sacrifice casually.
After all.
The sacrifice seems to be related to an unnameable creature.
Anything related to indescribable creatures must be done with extreme caution.
In view of this.
Xie Shen is going to try to see if he can delay it for some time.
As long as he is given enough time, he will be able to turn the situation around with his body's cultivation at the stage of becoming a god and his thousands of years of experience.
Xie Shen said.
“Can you give me a few more days to think about it?”
"In short, I can't sacrifice today no matter what."
"I have reasons why it is inconvenient to say it."
As soon as these words came out, the emperor couldn't sit still. .
He was not angry and said calmly: "First Prince, let me ask you. Are you serious about not planning to sacrifice?"
"You must think about this question. Let’s talk later.” The emperor was obviously giving Xie Shen a chance.
But Xie Shen obviously couldn't take this opportunity.
He still answered as before: "Father, my son is not unwilling to sacrifice, I just want to think about it for a few more days."
"Look."
< br>"Okay, okay." Seeing Xie Shen repeatedly making excuses, the emperor became completely impatient.
He waved his hand at Xie Shen, telling him to shut up and stop talking.
Then in the team of civil and military officials, an official was named and said: "Chengye, you have always been upright and upright."
"Then you should tell me, the eldest prince has repeatedly refused How should sacrifices be handled according to the law? "
The civil servant named Chengye hurriedly stepped forward after his name was called.
He first bowed to the emperor solemnly, and then said: "His Royal Highness breaks the law. As a rule, he should be punished with food and salary and be punished to shut up and think about his mistakes."
"But considering that His Highness has refused to sacrifice this time."
"And the matter of sacrifice is greater than heaven."
"Therefore, His Highness should be put on death row and asked on another day. Kill!”
The emperor was very satisfied with Chengye’s answer.
He nodded and asked Xie Shen again: "First Prince, did you hear clearly?"
"Let me ask you again: Would you rather die than sacrifice?"
Xie Shen was helpless.
He repeated what he said before and said: "Father, didn't I just say that?"
"It's not that I don't want to sacrifice, I just want to think more about it." God."
"Okay." The emperor nodded and his tone became cold and ruthless: "Eldest son Biao, don't say I didn't give you a chance."
"Come here, take the eldest prince Yan Biao to death row and wait for his fate!"
When the emperor said these words, Xie Shen noticed a detail.
I don’t know if it’s because of excitement or excitement.
——After confirming that Xie Shen would rather die than sacrifice his internal organs, the emperor’s heartbeat inexplicably accelerated a little.
This is what Xie Shen perceived through his spiritual consciousness, and it cannot be wrong.
It is not difficult to see from this detail: People today also have their own ideas, but they just don't show them easily.
…
Above the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
After the emperor spoke, two soldiers in armor hurriedly walked in from outside the palace.
Seeing this posture, Xie Shen didn't say much, and just followed the two soldiers away.
On the road.
Xie Shen used his spiritual consciousness to observe that the internal organs of the two soldiers were missing their hearts and large intestines respectively.
No.
It cannot be said that there is less.
To be precise, it should be that the hearts and large intestines of these two soldiers were rotten to varying degrees.
I think it was also caused by the 'sacrifice'.
In order to obtain more information about this world, Xie Shen took the opportunity to talk to the two soldiers.
But these two are obviously elite soldiers with extremely high quality.
No matter how Xie Shen tried to test him with words, they remained silent from beginning to end.
In this way, under the escort of two soldiers, Xie Shen quickly arrived at the ‘Shanhanju’ prison, which was specially used to imprison relatives of the emperor.
Most of the prisoners imprisoned there are of high status.
Therefore, the prison’s food and accommodation conditions are excellent.
After Xie Shen arrived, he was even assigned a separate room.
…
In the room.
Seeing the two soldiers responsible for escorting away, Xie Shen hurriedly released his spiritual consciousness and carefully explored the entire prison.
After confirming that no one was around, he sat cross-legged on the bed and silently started the "Ancient Devouring Heaven Jue" technique.
From the skull that the Grand Master just summoned, it is not difficult to see that there are definitely indescribable creatures and extraordinary powers in this world.
But when Xie Shen was running the technique, he discovered that there is neither any spiritual power nor even a tiny bit of extraordinary power on this planet.
He is in it and cannot improve his strength through practice.
This made Xie Shen a little confused.
As the saying goes, don’t turn to Li Xiu when encountering problems.
Xie Shen put his hand on the heart on his chest, and took out the storage bag he carried with him from the body of the heart.
He took out the Shinto cauldron from his storage bag.
Then, at the risk of being discovered by the local unspeakable creatures, he borrowed a small amount of black mist from the main body and injected it into the Shinto Cauldron.
Lean less.
I saw a black shadow appearing on the Shinto tripod.
The black shadow spoke human words and said in Li Xiu's voice: "Did you encounter any problems when you suddenly came to me?"
"It's true." Xie Shen was busy He responded: "I just used the Butterfly Dream Technique to invade a very weird planet."
"Say it." Li Xiu said cooperatively.
Xie Shen first briefly talked about the general situation on this planet.
Then he continued: "On the planet I am on, there are clearly visions and the existence of unspeakable creatures."
"But when I was practicing, I couldn't feel even A little bit of extraordinary power."
"This is very puzzling to me."
"So I thought, let you help analyze it to see what went wrong. ”
"Is that so?" Li Xiu remained silent after hearing this, as if he was thinking.
A few seconds later.
He gave the answer: "In this way, you keep the Shendao tripod outside, don't rush to take back the storage bag."
"In the meantime, I will try to locate it The specific location of your divine cauldron in the galaxy"
"If you are lucky"
"If there is no obstruction between your planet and the Aldebaran galaxy, then I can directly observe the specific conditions on your planet through the starry sky telescope."
"Get there. When I get more data, I will be able to better analyze the reasons for you."
"Okay." See Li. Xiu gave a specific solution, and Xie Shen followed up by asking: "So how long will it take you to locate my divine cauldron?"
"For some reason, I offended this person. The emperor on the planet will be executed soon.”
“So I don’t have much time.”
"You have to go faster."
"Don't worry about that." Li Xiu replied: "I purchased a lot of technological blueprints from Chou Yuan, the manager of Planet Aldebaran C."< br>
“This led me to design many instruments on the Ark spacecraft The equipment has been updated.”
“With the upgraded starry sky telescope, it only takes me an hour at most to find your specific location in the Milky Way.”
After saying this, Li Xiu stopped making any sound.
Maybe he was busy adjusting the starry sky telescope.
Half an hour later.
On the Shen Dao Cauldron, the black shadow transformed by Li Xiu spoke again: "Are you sure you are on a planet with a fairly backward technological level?"
"What's wrong? ?" Xie Shen said confused after hearing this.
Li Xiudao: "Using the starry sky telescope, I observed a large number of satellites, space stations, and space battleships in the low-Earth orbit of your planet."
"It is obviously a planet dominated by technological civilization."
"And the technological level is not backward at all."
"Humans on the planet have even begun to explore Out of space”
