Chapter 179 We started

Outside Kanda City, there was a place surrounded by soldiers.

In the middle of the open space is a small mound, and a small dirt platform is piled up with mud on the mound, and Long Hao stood solemnly beside him.

At this moment, he was no longer as gloomy as before. He wore a gorgeous robe and a crown that seemed to be intertwined with various poisonous insects. Under the same illumination, he seemed to be squirming like a living thing, strange and simple, and his whole body looked like a witch in ancient times.

He was holding a small urn in his hand, trembling slightly. Even if the mouth of the urn was covered with a lid with a talisman, he could hear a chirping sound coming from it.

That was the cry of locusts.

After standing and waiting for a while, Long Hao heard the movement from the side. He looked around and saw Kong Wenxuan wearing the magistrate's crown uniform walking slowly, with his three people coming, with a gentle and solemn expression, as if everything was under control, calm as a mountain.

However, Long Hao's eyes fell on the shortest among the four, with the most gorgeous and elegant clothes...the young girl.

Princess Yingyue was indeed here too. The other two, one seemed to be Princess Yingyue's guards, and the other should be Zhuge Laoer's disciple.

When he came forward, Long Hao said respectfully: "Caomin has met the magistrate and His Highness the Princess."

Wu Mian, who was observing Long Hao, nodded slightly when he came over, then helped Long Hao up and said with a smile: "Mr. Long doesn't have to do this, I have to do more than Mr. Lai this time."

After saying that, he said to Song Yingyue again: "Your Highness, this is the disciple of the Five Poison Sect who helped me create the Locust King, Mr. Long Hao."

Song Yingyue looked at Long Hao with her head raised for a moment, and said solemnly: "Mr. Kong has already told me about this matter. Please help me. I will do my best to do my best. I will not treat Mr. Kong badly."

"Langzhou is the hometown of Cao people. This is what Cao people should do, so how dare you pray for rewards?"

Long Hao took two steps back and was about to bow down, but hesitated when he saw the small urn in his hand.

Seeing this, Song Yingyue pursed her lips slightly: "No need to be too polite. How can the priests be bound by common etiquette? This princess is just here to watch the etiquette. You can do your own thing."

Long Hao's expression relaxed a little, but he was still respectful: "Thank you, Your Highness, for the large amount of it."

Then, he greeted Nangong Xiaoxing and Dongfang Hong again, and said to Wu Mian: "Master, the altar is ready. Just wait for the hour to arrive, and the stars and constellations are all unobstructed, so you can create the locust king."

Wu Mian nodded slowly, looked at the small earth platform on the mound, and asked, "What do you need to cooperate with me?"

"The locust king is to control the locust plague. The adults do not understand the secret method of the Five Poison Sects and do not ask for what the Locust King will do in the future. Therefore, the adults can spray a mouthful of blood on the head of the locust king when the grass and the locust king is born. In this way, the grass and people can use the adults' luck to suppress the locust king's luck, so that the adults can control the locust king."

"Is this something that others can't do?"

Long Hao glanced at Song Yingyue in a faint way and replied: "To the heavens, a human life is not as precious as a locust. To control the locust king, if you are not a magistrate who gathers the fortune of a state like the magistrate, or who has greater fortune, you will definitely not be able to suppress it."

Wu Mian, who had been observing Long Hao carefully, had an unexpected thought in his mind and nodded, "But, then when will it start?"

"Shi Shi. The people of Sucao also observed the celestial phenomena at night last night and discovered the earth's veins. They found that if they wanted to create the locust king today, Si Shi Shi Shi was the most suitable."

"Shi Shi..."

Raising his hand... and then putting it down. Wu Mian looked at the increasingly fierce sun, thus confirming the current time... Chen was right around.

"Have you waited for more than half an hour?"

There are a lot of messy things in Langzhou now. I want him to stand here for half an hour or an hour?

I knew I would have come so early, so I went to Lord Li to talk about the food road first. It wouldn't take long. By the way, I can ask about the situation of the victims in the city outside the city in the past two days.

Seeing Wu Mian's brows frowned, Long Hao explained: "If you want to support the locust king, you must first gather the power of locusts in the Langzhou. If you support the king, you must first win the hearts of the people in the land. If you want to win the hearts of the people, you must first let the people know who the king is, otherwise the people will not know the king, so how can they support the king? The same is true for the locust king. In a hurry, the grass people could not go to Langzhou to collect the fortune of locusts in the land. If you support the locust king, you can only use the power of the earth veins to make the fortune of locust king reach the whole state, and then use the power of the earth veins to collect the fortune of locusts in the Langzhou to achieve the blessing of locust king."

"However, due to drought, the water veins in Langzhou are exhausted, and the earth veins are often stagnant. Only around Si, when the sun reaches Yuzhong, the yang energy is grand and close to the extreme. The earth veins are stagnant and the yang energy is temporarily melted. Only then can the grass people use the power of the earth veins."

After hearing his explanation, Wu Mian sighed lightly, intending to stand so stupidly for a while, but he didn't expect Song Yingyue, who was beside him, suddenly said, "If that's the case, let's start now."

Wu Mian and Long Hao looked over and saw her taking off an exquisite jade pendant from her waist: "This is the token of this princess. This princess allows you to use this item to spread the fortune of the Locust King throughout the province in the name of this princess, using the power of the dragon vein."

Long Hao couldn't help but be stunned.

The dragon vein is related to the rise and fall of the dynasty. If there is slight turmoil, it will cause many terrible consequences. Therefore, the court has always firmly controlled all practitioners' use of the dragon vein, that is, the Three Immortals will only consider whether to allow the use of the three immortals after reporting the reasons in advance.

If a small sect dares to use the dragon vein to cast spells without the court's permission, once it is found out who it is, let alone the person involved, the entire vein will be cleaned!

The Five Poison Sects are no more than that, and they are also one of the small sects. Long Hao will not use the dragon veins to cast spells without any wits.

But now Song Yingyue’s words are different.

He lowered his head respectfully, and Long Hao said in a deep voice: "Since your highness agrees, the grass people will be overthrown."

After saying that, he looked at Wu Mian: "I would like to ask the adults to hold the token and go to the altar with the grass people."

After staring at Song Yingyue for a moment, Wu Mian smiled and said, "Thank you for your fulfillment."

He has been exposed to practice for too short, and he has not counted many things that people in the world of practice know about, and the same is true for the dragon vein. After all, there is no magic he has come into contact with that that requires the dragon vein, and he has never specifically understood it before.

However, from Long Hao's words and Song Yingyue's attitude when he made a promise, he still vaguely guessed the importance of some dragon veins, and even guessed the risks of using the dragon veins, so he stared at Song Yingyue.

However, Song Yingyue did not say anything, as if she was telling him that there was no risk in doing this. Although Nangong Xiaoxing and Dongfang Hong were frowned, they didn't say anything, which proved Song Yingyue's hint, so he was no longer stuck.

After taking Song Yingyue's jade pendant, Wu Mian and Long Hao walked towards the altar.

As he slowly approached the altar, an inexplicable feeling gradually arose in his heart.

At first, it was just a slight depression and was not cared about by him.

The creation of the Locust King is related to his control of the locust plague in Langzhou and the first step to improve the disaster. He has never done such a thing that is related to such a large territory and so many lives before, and it is impossible not to feel depressed and nervous.

But when he got closer and closer to the altar, he found that he could not hear any sound in his ears. What he saw in his eyes was only the altar, nothing else! The depression in his heart slowly turned into a terrifying sense of horror, and inexplicably gave birth to himself as a lamb, as if he wanted to sacrifice to the heaven and earth!

It is a kind of fear that goes straight to the heart and involves the worries of life!

This fear became increasingly intense. If he had not visualized his mental method in time and forced himself to suppress this terrifying sense of horror, he might have turned around and escaped.

But even so, his pace was getting slower and slower, and his pace was getting smaller and smaller, and he tended to stagnate!

Long Hao next to him naturally noticed his changes.

After Wu Mian's pace slowed down, he whispered: "Sir?"

Wu Mian's eyes flashed, and he recovered from the beginning of his steps, and whispered: "I... I am a little scared. If the locust king has not been made, how should I explain to the people of Langzhou? After the locust plague spreads, the people of other affected prefectures and counties? Let the emperor explain to the emperor?"

Long Hao had no doubt about what Wu Mian said.

If the locust king cannot be created, the consequences of Langzhou's locust plague spread to the border prefectures and counties will naturally be unimaginable, and Langzhou will definitely become an isolated island with no support.

For the magistrate, they do not want to see this, both public and private, and they dare not see this, especially the newly appointed magistrate.

Such a big mistake was revealed as soon as he took office, even if this was a problem that happened before he took office, it would be enough to affect the reputation.

If the reputation is bad, it may take a lifetime to repay, and it will never be able to go to the next level!

After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, sir! If there is any in case, the grass people will sacrifice themselves by human sacrifice, so that the locust king will succeed in creating it!"

Human sacrifice... All things have spirits, and humans are the masters of spirits. The so-called human sacrifice is the highest standard sacrifice at the cost of human life.

Wu Mian is still clear about this, but sacrifices require objects!

"Who is it sacrificed?"

"Five Poison Gods. Our Five Poisons Sects inherit the ancient witchcraft and sacrificial veins. The sacrificial matters have also been reported to the court. They are not lewd sacrifices, but they cannot be spread outside the gate."

Nodded slightly, Wu Mian was slightly silent and said in a deep voice: "Do whatever you can."

Wu Mian, who knows the meaning of human sacrifice, does not want to use human sacrifice to create the Locust King, but if it really doesn't work, he will not stop Long Hao.

Not only did he not want to fail, but also the terrible consequences caused by the failure to create the locust king and the locust plague cannot be controlled.

The Locust King must be made!

"Here!"

While talking in a low voice, they had already walked to the altar.

At this time, Wu Mian felt that the sky was cloudy, but when he looked up, he saw no clouds at all. It was still clear and the sun was still dazzling.

However, even if the sky is clear and the sun is still dazzling, Wu Mian still feels cloudy and there is an inexplicable chill from head to toe.

"Bang"

The small urn held in his arms was placed on the altar by Long Hao.
