Chapter 243 [242] Under the gaze

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Mondaya sat in front of a mirror, constantly adjusting his breathing.

The mirror is made of black obsidian without any cracks or impurities. Looking at the entire valley, this kind of mirror is extremely rare.

And as the most beloved granddaughter of the Lord of the Valley, she has the most beautiful things in this world.

No one in the world opposes beauty, but they must yearn for freedom.

For this girl, Keya, who came from beyond the valley, was the apple that fell into the Garden of Inden, which gave her real desire.

"Your Highness, it's time to go!"

There was a call from outside the house, but the entire palace was already boiling, looking forward to the practice ceremony of the prince's mission.

Mondaya stood up, she had already changed into her costume.

In fact, under the costume, there is another lining, which can easily take off the costume and put on other clothes.

The waiters and servants lifted the sedan chair and set off to the high platform of the sacrificial temple.

Along the way, they joined forces with many princes and nobles, and finally came under the high platform...

The sky is bright.

More than 20 people gathered in the entire city, and the army maintained order. When the princes and nobles arrived, they stood under the steep steps and waited quietly.

With the spread of a long horn, the sound of war drums sounded like thunder.

In the distance, a "mobile palace" is slowly approaching, as if floating on a sea of ​​people.

The person in the palace is "Tezuomoke".

The only king of this mighty kingdom.

The palace landed dully in front of the stairs, and the carpet rolled off the tiles, and the aged valley lord finally stepped down...

The nobles bowed down for it.

At the same time, more than [-] people kowtowed to him like waves.

Li Cheng.

The eldest prince, who was also in old age, came and followed his father up the steps.

Only then did a group of nobles slowly follow.

They will go to the place closest to the sky, pray to the "God of Equilibrium", beg for her mercy, and accept surrender, favor, and tribute from the Lord of the Valley.

The process of climbing the ladder is extremely long.

People need to slow down and give Tzomok time to breathe.

And indistinctly, there are voices of discussion spreading——

"The king personally practiced it for His Royal Highness, and this will confirm the rumors in the court..."

"What rumor? It is no longer a rumor. The royal family's heirs all know that as long as the eldest prince makes peace and returns, he will be the next king!"

"Will the second and third princes be willing?"

"Hehe, maybe when the eldest prince sleeps in the underground palace, the old lord can still drink three glasses of tequila liqueur every day!"

"The eldest prince will only be excessive. The real battle for kings still lies with the second and third princes!"

"You still forgot one person, Your Highness Mondaya."

Some people's eyes began to search, and finally found that the girl had walked to the side of the old king at some point, and helped him continue to go up.

"This kind of grace is unprecedented among the heirs of the royal family."

"The old lord's love for her is really out of the care of the elders!"

Discussions began to diverge, and Mondaya represented the unknown.

In the crowd, the Seventeenth Prince naturally heard all this, and looked at his daughter serving the King, feeling extremely proud in his heart.

Suddenly, a figure appeared beside him, "Your Highness."

The Seventeenth Prince withdrew his eyes and looked at the man. It was the guards he sent to kill Keya and his son: "Is the matter resolved?"

"I have let His Highness down!"

"What?" The Seventeenth Prince couldn't help exclaiming, attracting the eyes of everyone around him.

He immediately lowered his voice and said, "What's going on? It's been three days, and you still haven't found them?"

"I hunted and searched all night, and even sent my fast feet to the 'Shield City' and turned back, but found nothing."

"You know, all the city-states are closed. If they enter the city, the whereabouts of the father and son cannot be hidden."

"And with their foot strength, they won't go too far!"

The Seventeenth Prince scolded in a low voice, "Could it be that they had wings and flew away out of thin air?"

"No, I suspect that after they left the city, they turned back again!"

"What do you mean?"

The guard said: "There is a secret passage leading to the outside of the big city."

"I know there is a secret passage, but why would they know about it? Or, how could they have thought that I would hunt them down?"

The guard continued: "This is just a guess, but it is also possible that they did bypass the Shield City and leave the valley by a long way!"

"However, I have arranged a large number of people to go to the northern cities to issue hunting orders. Whoever takes the heads of these three people will be rewarded."

"Your Highness, give me a few more days, and I will give you a satisfactory explanation!"

The Seventeenth Prince was unwilling to say more, but in fact, in his opinion, the father and son would not die, nor would they have the courage to return.

Of course, it would be best if he could be put to death directly, because that humble servant had almost polluted the blood of the royal family.

"Okay, after today's ceremony, you go hunting again."

Soon, the summit will be reached.

Another person walked beside the Seventeenth Prince and called him by his first name: "Tils."

The Seventeenth Prince turned his head abruptly, and was about to get angry, but in an instant he changed into a smiling face: "Third Highness."

It was the third prince who came.

"We are all sons of the lord, why don't you call me elder brother?"

"His Royal Highness is sitting on the staff of military power, how can I compare with you?"

"Tils, why put on a show with me? I know you have great ambitions in your heart, and you covet the position of the king; the favor Mondaya has received is unique! What an honorable title 'Queen of the Valley' is, even if you are In the history of the ancestors, there are only a handful of them."

Tiers fearfully said, "Your Highness, don't speak in vain. The Lord is in good health, and His Highness is doing his best for the kingdoms. Besides you and Second Highness, Mengdaya will never be able to."

"That's enough." The third prince grabbed his arm and squeezed hard, causing him to grimace in pain, but he didn't dare to cry out...

"Your Highness, what are you going to do!"

"Relax, I want to wake you up! Let's talk about it directly! It doesn't matter whether the eldest prince returns with success..."

"The focus is still on the few of us! I have military power, but I am restricted by financial power. If there is no money to pay, the armies of several vassal states will not listen to my orders."

"So, we need to cooperate! If you can get Mengdaya to come to power, I will use the army to push Mengdaya to the top! Let's work together to get rid of the second child!"

sizzle.

Thiers gasped: "Why?"

"What can you get? Wait until the future to kill my daughter?"

"No, no, no." The third prince looked at Mengdaya on the steps, and said with a smile, "I can be her husband, and we can be the co-lords of the valley!"

"Wang Fu?!

"Tiles was shocked, something he never thought about.

Marriages of royal bloodlines often happen.

Even if the Third Highness is Mengdaya's uncle, it doesn't matter, but it can make the royal power more stable, and the cooperation will benefit both.

And looking at the countries in the valley, which country does not have the blood of the ancestors?
For example, the "Aztec" who had long been a prisoner, the wife of the monarch who died in divine punishment, was the daughter of Tezuzomok.

Mengdaya always wants to marry someone, and if he marries out, there is a high probability that he will also be his cousin.

Then why can't it be uncle?

Seeing Tiers was shocked and speechless, the third prince said: "This is the best choice!"

"And I give you my promise, my child with Mondaya will have the right of first line of succession, and when I am old, she will be young."

"She looks so much like her father, and she may become the second longest-lived valley lord!"

So far, Thiers has no objection: "Deal!"

"Hahaha, then coax your daughter well, I know she's grown up and won't listen to you very much! Obtaining property rights is our first step."

By this time.

The old lord had already stepped onto the high platform, and the two of them didn't dare to continue talking, but they each had their own concerns and walked into the temple with the team.

After that, worship the statue of balance.

"The only true God in the world, please listen to my voice, I will send my most beloved son to your knees, sending endless treasures!"

"I only ask you to forgive the people of the valley and show us mercy..."

After bursts of praises, Tezuzomok was out of breath.

Everyone was in tears because of his speech.

In the end, it was the eldest prince who led the officials of the mission to bow down.

when it's all over.

Te Zuo Moke brought everyone back to the platform and issued a royal order: "Pilgrimage Mission, set off!"

"May you return with the grace of the gods!"

woo-

Trumpets and drums sounded again.

The crowd followed the old lord down the high platform.

And at this time.

Offering sacrifices to the lower level of the temple, Qiboche was urging everyone: "Quick, change clothes!"

"The mission will go out of the city directly from the sacrificial platform, we have to mix in!"

Polypomar, Oyer.

The three of Keya, father and son, are all in action.

On the other hand, Mengdaya paused slightly.

Qiboche said: "Mengdaya, do you regret it?"

"No!" Meng Daya said instantly: "I have no regrets, I'm just afraid that if I fail to take this step, I will implicate all of you because of me alone!"

Keya had already changed his clothes, and stepped forward to grab Mondaya's shoulders: "My beloved, believe me...no, believe in the true God! We will escape the cage and step into her kingdom of joy!"

"It is because of the guidance of the true God that we can meet again, isn't it?"

Ziboche whispered: "There is no time! Everyone, please praise the balance in your heart, she will guide us, she will definitely!"

Mengdaya took the clothes and ran to the corner to change.

The few people were almost hanging at the end of the line, followed them down the stairs, quickly overtook them, and mixed into the enslaved crowd.

All the way to the sacrificial high platform.

Even though everything around them was boiling, they couldn't hear a second sound other than the beating of the heart.

The things in front of me also seem to become a frame that freezes and jumps, speeding up and skipping...

at last.

The high walls of the great city are in sight.

The city gate was opened, and the forefront of the mission team stepped out.

At this moment, the people in Mengdaya dared not breathe anymore, and the time and space seemed to be frozen again.

The body is out of control, and only instinctively takes steps again and again.

"Boom!"

A sudden loud noise came from behind them.

They looked back and finally realized that they had walked out of the city at some point, and the loud noise was the sound of the city gate closing.

Hiss—

Several people took a deep breath at the same time, and when the sweet air poured into their chests, it seemed to revive them!

"We made it!"

"Really successful!
"

They congratulated in low voices.

Qiboche looked at Mengdaya and smiled: "We can return to Kema City in four days if it is fast, or in seven days if it is slow!"

……

at the same time.

balanced.

The main city shrine.

"Master, did they really have to escape?"

Zhou Li'an is like an emotionless transmitter, immersed in the [Eye of the Void], but explaining the situation to Xue Nu and others——

"Yes, they're out of the city of sin!"

"Chiboche told Mondaya that there are still 4-7 days to arrive at Kema."

The words fall.

He has opened his eyes!

And the hall was already cheering.

Both Zhou Ruoyu and Zhou Ruonan were present, jumping for joy;
Xiaohua was fascinated by hearing this, probably feeling the love between a princess and a commoner;
Even Xuenv, who is used to maintaining majesty in front of everyone, smiled. What she cared about was faith: "Wish to go to the balanced one, and the balanced will go to him!"

The situation here was intended to be recorded by Zhou Ruoyu and rehearsed into a drama.

There was an Aztec crime king before, embarking on the road to redemption.

Afterwards, Princess Tepanix fled and moved toward equilibrium.

These are the best "balanced promotional materials", which can be used to spread folk stories, and can even be "operated" and loaded into the holy book of balance.

How to operate depends on Zhou Li'an's follow-up arrangements for several people.

And in fact.

Zhou Li'an didn't pay much attention to Ziboche at first, but it wasn't until he led people into the sacrificial temple that he caught Zhou Li'an's attention.

Wondering what he was going to do.

Later, conspiring with the princess and rescuing Keya and his son became more and more exciting.

Equilibrium needs the stories of these people to fill the background.

Instead of showing a pale and cold appearance.

People love most dramatic legends.

The success of a certain Jesus in the spread of faith and the rich storytelling of the "Old Testament" played a big role.

Apple, Viper, Noah's Ark...

Later, the writers of the "New Testament" followed suit and wrote "people-friendly stories" such as the Son of God who walked the world and healed the blind and lame.

Then there is the betrayal of Judas, which undoubtedly reveals the good and evil of human nature, and the story is sublimated...

Zhou Li'an sometimes wonders whether to set up a few "villain models" after the positive role models have been set up.

Of course, backstabs can exist, but successful backstabs are impossible.

The final outcome must be the Bishop of Balance and they are human beings!
At this moment.

When the hall was boiling, Zhou Li'an suddenly said again: "Do you think this is over?"

Even if it was a "live broadcast", Zhou Li'an didn't tell the whole story.

Such as the conspiracy between Tiers and the third prince and so on.

The heirs of the royal family were missing, and they were the most favored ones. No matter how slow their reaction was, they could catch up within 4-7 days after the mission left for Tadong City.

When the voice of our Lord falls.

The uproar in the arena immediately stopped.

Zhou Ruoyu is always the most daring person.

He is like a lover who is obsessed with chasing dramas in later generations, begging the screenwriter not to write his favorite characters to death...

"My lord, is it possible that the princess and others will be chased by the Tepanix?"

"My lord, I beg you to show mercy and save them!"

Zhou Li'an smiled, but didn't make a sound.

Leaving Tepanix Kingdom, the royal family's influence will decline infinitely...

Because, first of all, let's be clear.

They went to Kema City to seek peace.

Once the pursuers arrive, Qiboche can reveal his identity, 'I am the people of Balance'.

Then the problem is given to the royal family——

To kill, or not to kill!

This is the boiling point that Zhou Li'an expected for the whole drama!

Killing my balanced people will give me a reason to declare war again.

Even if these characters die... but what are the "consumables" that die?
Instead, this story will be the prologue to a new chapter in history.

For example, Ahal and Kema established the beginning of the balance of the surrender of the Chinese and American people.

And the death of Qi Boche and others may be the end of the unification of the land by the army of judgment!
If they really arrive at Kemah...

That doesn't matter, the stories of the little people are complete, and they also gain something.

And for the next advance.

Zhou Li'an no longer needs to be concerned.

Just like a few days ago, he said to Xue Nu...

The fire of balance has already been sprinkled in the valley!
