Yuwen Hao looked at the old man sitting under the lamp as if he was meditating. He was so solemn that he looked like a stone tablet under the dim yellow light. Just when he thought that he would not answer the old man beside him, he saw him slowly raise his head. His movements were like slow motion in movies, but his sharp eyes shot in his direction. He gently pursed his lips and said something that shocked and surprised him.
What kind of gaze was that? He was like an injured wolf, but he would rather die than surrender to protect the wolf that had been protecting him for thousands of years. Now, it was as if he had suddenly met someone who wanted to snatch his things. His anger, hatred, and sharp eyes were so sharp that no one dared to look at him directly.
How could there be such a sharp and long-lasting gaze? Yuwen Hao was surprised, but he didn't show it on his face.
She put on a frightened and weak look. Can you please show me some mercy? Look, I don't have much meat on me. Your god definitely won't like me…"
The old man under the lamp stared at him as if he wanted to see through his soul. Yuwen Hao was frightened by his lifeless gaze. But she still braced herself and looked back at him
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat because of Yuwen Hao's behavior. No one had ever dared to be disrespectful to the Billion Clan Leader, let alone look him in the eye…
The old man and Yuwen Hao looked at each other coldly for a while." Lock them up. Tomorrow, we will offer sacrifices to the gods. No one is allowed to be absent. I will show them what happens to those who dare to intrude into Akash and those who want to walk out of here!"”
The voice from his mouth seemed to have passed through a cold icehouse before reaching the people's ears, making them shiver.
" Yes." They walked up and tied Hong Yue and Yuwen Hao up with ropes. They brought them into a house in the backyard and pushed them in. Then, they closed the door with a bang.
Yuwen Hao stood outside the door when he heard the footsteps. He struggled carefully but failed to break free from the rope. Listening to the direction of Red Moon's breathing, he slowly moved to Red Moon's side. Are you hurt?"
" It's okay." Red Moon's cold voice came from the darkness.
"This place seems very special, have you noticed? "Especially the old man sitting under the lamp. He's definitely not simple. His eyes are not just like a patriarch's. He seems to know a lot about what we're looking for," Red Moon frowned and whispered.
"Yes, I noticed that too. You didn't resist because you wanted to wait until tomorrow to see the so-called sacrifice he was talking about.”Yuwen Hao whispered in her ear.
Hongyue looked at him coldly and rolled her eyes. Unfortunately, Yuwen Hao couldn't see her cute expression in the darkness...
" Now we are meat on the chopping board..." Yuwen Hao sighed helplessly in a low voice.
" Come and sit against me. You'll feel more comfortable. I don't know what will happen tomorrow," Yuwen Hao sat down and said to Hong Yue.
Red Moon hesitated for a moment, but she still sat down next to him. Now was not the time to argue.
She leaned against him gently and felt the heat from his body surrounding him. It was mixed with the faint mint fragrance from his body, which instantly made her tense nerves relax.
Just like that, she leaned against him and slowly fell asleep…
After an unknown period of time, when Hong Yue woke up, it was still darkness in front of her. Frowning slightly, she hates situations where she's not sure
" There seems to be no window here, so there is no light coming in." Yuwen Hao seemed to feel her displeasure and said softly," It should be dawn now. Don't worry, it will be fine. Even if something happens, I will block in front of you."
Red Moon heard his firm and gentle words and her heart palpitated, but she thought that he would be in trouble, so she said coldly," You just have to protect yourself."
Yuwen Hao smiled," Don't worry, I won't leave you alone."
Hong Yue's eyes narrowed. How could he understand what she was thinking? This feeling was so luxurious…Yes! How extravagant!
" Squeak!" A heavy sound rang out, as if the long river of history that had been sealed for thousands of years was being unveiled. It was also a heavy blow to Hong Yue and Yuwen Hao's hearts...
"Let's go." At the same time, a few people came in. They hadn't seen them yesterday. They pulled the ropes on their bodies and walked out.
Yuwen Hao helplessly looked at these rude people and said," Brother, can you be a little gentler? I am a gift from your god. You have to treat me well."
The man turned around and glared at him. He didn't say anything and continued walking forward.
Yuwen Hao looked up at the sun. It was about ten o'clock. His hands were tied behind his back, so he had to look at the sun to calculate the time.
They didn't say anything along the way and just walked forward. Yuwen Hao tried to talk to them several times and wanted to know something about the god of sacrifice from them. However, he was glared at by the people who grabbed him. In the end, he had no choice but to give up the idea of getting anything from them.
They left the village and headed south. Yuwen Hao secretly remembered the path they had taken, wanting to know where they had gone.
The group walked for a long time until the sun was about to rise above their heads. Finally, they arrived at a large open space. There was a high platform on the open space. Looking at the platform, there were many people surrounding the high platform. The two of them stood in the middle. Through him, they could see a temple not far from the high platform.
Yuwen Hao was surprised. Why was there a temple here? It looked like it was from a very long time ago…Could it be that this temple had some hidden meaning? That so-called god was worshipped here? But it was so strange. It seemed that the temple had not been here for a long time. There were mottled marks everywhere…
There was a mottled sign hanging above the door of the temple. On it was a totem that could not be seen clearly. It looked like a ball of fire or a cloud. He couldn't tell what it was from what he had seen
The old man who brought them up was the old man from yesterday. He was wearing a gray robe and was standing on the stage looking at them. It's like looking at an empty air
The few of them pulled them to the high platform…
Yuwen Hao and Hong Yue stumbled a few times before they could stand up. They looked straight at the group of people in front of them, all of them with a serious expression.
"Raise the altar!" With a loud shout, the people standing on both sides of the platform bent down and grabbed something that looked like a handle under his feet.
Another platform slowly rose up from the high platform, bit by bit…
