Traveling through another world as a sacrifice

Chapter 86
"Buzz~" In the early morning, when the first ray of dawn pierced the sky, the distant and solemn bell echoed clearly in every corner of the holy mountain. The power to reassure.

After the bell rang, everything revived, and the tranquility of the night was broken by the noise. Every path in the mountain was full of busy priests, wearing uniform white robes, coming and going in a hurry.

The few days of fine weather melted a lot of snow on the mountain, which also made those who had not gone up to the mountain to pray for blessings finally get their long-cherished wish. People lined up neatly and orderly, and there was no confusion caused by the large number of people.

These people are the most loyal worshipers of the temple, and it has long been a compulsory course to come to worship every day. I heard that the temple is open today, and many people lined up a long queue before dawn. The top of the mountain extends to the foot of the mountain, looking from a height, it looks like a sleeping dragon.

The holy hall is composed of four main halls, each of which performs its own duties, namely the Hall of Prayer, the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the Hall of Oracles and the Hall of Blessing.Among the four main halls, only the entrance of the Blessing Hall has the largest number of people. The people who come here want to get the blessing of the sacrifice, so they will feel that it will be easier to get their wishes fulfilled.

The Blessing Hall is just a one-story building covering an area of ​​about [-] square meters. The entire house is made of white jade. The front door is supported by four huge stone pillars. The entire top is curved, and a cross is erected on it.It looks so magnificent from the outside, but when you approach the hall, you will be attracted by the exquisite carvings.

There are not many decorations in the spacious hall, only a sculpture stands on the high platform. It is a green sculpture in the shape of a man. It has a strong body like all Europeans and Americans. Every muscle is full of explosive power. Its upper body is naked. , the lower body is only surrounded by a piece of animal skin.

The appearance of the sculpture is not handsome, but this is not the point. The point is the stone bowl held in the right hand of the sculpture, which contains holy water that makes everyone envious. Its efficacy has long been exaggerated by believers, which is why many people do not line up early .

Roy, as the highest person in charge of the entire temple, is also the master of the Blessing Hall. The task he has to face today is huge. Because the main entrance is blocked by a dense flow of people, he has to enter through the side door. As soon as he came in, he saw the adjutant running in from the door, sweating profusely.

"Master Sacrifice, there are too many people outside, why don't you preside over it today." The adjutant looked at Roy worriedly. As Roy's closest clergyman, besides his respect for Roy, he also expressed his sincerity. The concern in my heart, seeing Roy's face pale a while ago, although he is better now, he is afraid that the other party will be tired because of it.

Roy looked at the adjutant in front of him, his black eyes flickered slightly, and a thin ray of emotion flashed across his eyes: "Don't worry, proceed as usual." After a pause, Roy stretched out his hand and patted the adjutant's shoulder and said; With you, I will go back and have a good rest after today." After speaking, the white robe walked towards the door.

The adjutant looked at Roy's eyes flushed. He had been with Roy for a long time and naturally understood Roy's temperament. Get close, but after a long time, you will always be moved by the other party's inadvertent words and deeds.

Roy came to the door, held the doorknob with both hands, and pulled it back. Immediately, a gust of wind blew in. Roy half-closed his eyes and greedily sucked in the fresh air. It turned out that this was just a simple His actions, but in the eyes of others, he felt like he was breathing heavily.

I saw that Roy's fair skin was coated with a layer of soft light, and it looked almost transparent, adding a touch of immortality to that already perfect face. The loose and simple white sacrificial robe gently swayed back with the breeze, Coupled with the fact that he was against the light, the whole person seemed to be a god who was about to pass through the catastrophe, exuding a sacred and inviolable aura.

The audience was silent, everyone was stunned by the beautiful picture in front of them, and everyone was obsessed. Such a terrible silence made Roy a little stunned when he came back to his senses. His black pupils glanced around and returned to his former indifference in an instant , with a habitual smile on his lips; "I've kept you waiting for a long time, please come in."

As Roy's words fell, the obsessed people finally came to their senses, and they began to file in, because only one person can enter the Blessing Hall at a time, and the others can only be outside before the last person comes out waiting.During this period of time, people started chatting.

"I finally met Lord Priest, he is so beautiful, if I were a woman, I would definitely marry him."
A young boy said excitedly to himself.

Hearing his words, the people around him gave him a contemptuous look; "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't you know that priests can't get married? If you say this to priests, you will have to peel your skin."

"What? Can't get married, isn't the priest too pitiful?" The boy's eyes were wide open, as if he was frightened by the news.

"Shh, keep your voice down." The man quickly covered the boy's mouth, then looked around cautiously, seeing that no one was paying attention, he said to the boy in a low voice; "And I also heard that every priest can't survive. For a long time, it is said that it is because of the sacrifice of life in exchange for our peace."

"Ah! This is too pitiful, no wonder the priest's face is so pale." The young man looked at the other side of the closed gate sympathetically. He originally came here out of curiosity, but now he changed his mind after seeing the real priest. Because of sympathy, he was overwhelmed by the other party's immortal-like temperament.

The day was quickly spent in a busy day, the temperature began to drop, and the sunset was approaching. The sunset smudged the sky red and made every believer who came to worship radiant. In sharp contrast to their excitement, Those who have not yet received the blessing.

According to the usual practice, when the sun sets, it means that the temple is about to close. Many people have already started to worry, and soon it will be dark, but there are still many teams ahead. Be willing, as time went by, the believers who were still waiting became uneasy.

This uneasiness gradually turned into a commotion, and the commotion continued to expand. First, there was a quarrel caused by several people for jumping in line, and soon a small-scale conflict was triggered. Although some clergy came out to suppress it, it was still uncontrollable deterioration of the situation.

There was a lot of noise outside the door, but there was silence behind the door. On the high platform of the main hall, Roy was blessing the believers who just came in. He was holding a white jade bowl in his left hand, and the thumb and ring finger of his right hand looked like dragonflies flying across the lake. The general is stained with a little liquid, and with a flick of two fingers, the holy water is evenly sprinkled on the believer.

"Great sea god Poseidon, your brilliance shines on the earth. With your gift, the earth is rich. As your envoy, I will give this person the most pious blessing on your behalf..." With the end of the blessing , The ceremony also came to an end.

As soon as the believer left, the adjutant did not open the door right away, but walked over with a worried face. Seeing Roy's chapped lips and a slightly tired expression, he couldn't help but said in distress; "Master Sacrifice, it's already dark, It's better to end it first."

"How many people are there outside the door?" Roy asked lightly.

"Going back to worship, there are more than 50 people." The adjutant glanced through the crack of the door and replied.

"Well... let's go on." Roy's light tone was unquestionable, and he just glanced at the adjutant, which was enough to convey his determination.

The adjutant opened his mouth and said no more, because he knew that Roy's decision would be difficult for others to change, and it would be better to execute the order than to annoy the other party. Thinking of this, he shook his head helplessly.

The believers who were about to evacuate outside the door were full of disappointment and were about to go back, when they suddenly heard that the priest was willing to help them finish everything, all of them cheered happily, and there were endless words of praise in their ears.

By the time Roy finished blessing the rest of the people, it was completely dark. Looking at the dim lights outside the door, a trace of exhaustion flooded into his brows. He rubbed his forehead and was about to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation , suddenly felt dizzy, and was about to fall to the ground when he staggered.

"Be careful!" The adjutant on one side was watching Roy all the time, and he stayed close to him from the time the other party finished to going out, so when he saw Roy fall, he rushed out immediately, because he was in a hurry to avoid an accident .

"..." Roy looked at the adjutant's hand on his waist, frowned, and couldn't hide a trace of repulsion in his expression. He stood up, flicked his clothes casually, but actually pushed it away unconsciously. adjutant.

People who can follow Roy's side naturally have vicious eyes. The adjutant knew that Roy didn't like being touched by others just now, and the loss in his heart was not so strong. Seeing that Roy's body was still a little unstable, he couldn't help but follow up again; "Master Sacrifice, are you going back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation? Why don't I send you off?"

Roy glanced at the adjutant lightly. Considering that he was indeed a little tired, he nodded and granted the adjutant's request.

The holy mountain at night has lost the hustle and bustle of the past, and there is a little more tranquility. The path leading to the Hall of Mental Cultivation is silent, only the sound of the night wind blowing. After a busy day, walking on such a road makes people feel relaxed. Luo Ina's frown was also slowly relaxed.

The adjutant on the side saw that Roy's expression was relieved, and his mood also improved. He followed Roy closely, paying attention to the other's steps and postures at all times, so as to avoid the previous accident.Thinking that Roy cared about him today, the adjutant was extremely happy. When he was thinking, he bumped his head into Roy's back.

The adjutant was shocked, and when he was about to apologize, he saw Roy making a silent gesture and followed the other person's gaze. The adjutant was startled, because Roy was looking in the Jingxin Garden.

Roy's black eyes flickered slightly, and Wang Xiaoyu's crying that day appeared in his mind, and the calm lake of heart couldn't help but make a circle of distressed ripples, he turned around and changed direction, and suddenly walked towards the Jingxin Garden.
