"However, I still need someone to help me during the sacrifice!”
Upon hearing Qin Yun's words, Ying Zheng said without hesitation,""Who does Gentleman Qin want? This Zheng will go and invite them.”
Qin Yun tapped Ying Zheng with his feather fan and said with a smile,""Far away in the horizon, right in front of us."
" You want my help?" Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows.”
"Patriarch, you can't!" Fengchang Zhao Li immediately said.”
Qin Yun looked at Zhao Li.”
Zhao Li looked at Ying Zheng anxiously.
Ying Zheng was the ruler of a country, so how could anyone who participated in the sacrificial ceremony and was appointed as the chief priest be someone else's assistant?
Zhao Li would not mind even if Qin Yun took away half of the national treasury.
However, the country's major events, in the war, in the sacrifice!
Zhao Lizhen was afraid that such an absurd sacrifice would anger the four Heavenly Monarchs and punish them.
After a brief silence, Ying Zheng also declined politely,""I've never helped anyone with a sacrifice before. I'm afraid I'll ruin the sacrifice of Gentleman Qin.”
"What's so difficult about that?" Qin Yun said with a faint smile.”
"As long as Brother Zheng listens to me and does as I say.”
After a pause, Qin Yun continued," Of course, if Brother Zheng is really unwilling, there's no need to force it.”
"It's just that I'll be a little busy during the sacrifice.”
Ying Zheng immediately hesitated.
A little hectic?
It was easy to make mistakes in a hurry.
Although Ying Zheng did not fully trust Qin Yun, he was definitely the person who hoped that the ritual would be successful.
A moment later, Ying Zheng nodded slowly and said,""Good."
"I will help."
Qin Yun was delighted.
He was not trying to throw the pot at Ying Zheng, he was just trying to force Ying Zheng to participate in the sacrifice.
The more Ying Zheng participated, the more determined he would be after the sacrifice was completed.
Because he had contributed to the success of the sacrifice.
Would people doubt themselves?
"Patriarch!" Zhao Li couldn't help but say.
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said," There's no need to persuade me anymore. If anything goes wrong, I'll take full responsibility!"”
"All of you wait in front and don't make a sound.”
Zhao Li let out a sorrowful sigh, but he could only bow and cup his hands."Understood!"
After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the incense table, three animals, and five grains needed for the sacrifice were all carried onto the altar.
More than a thousand imperial guards, who had changed into ordinary civilian clothing, surrounded the altar.
Although Wang Wan and the other important ministers were indignant, they could only sit on the soft couch in front of the altar obediently with Ying Zheng.
As for Qin Yun, he was already standing in the middle of the altar. The feather fan in his hand had been replaced with a six-foot-long mahogany sword. He had a solemn expression.
"Light the incense!"
"Incense?" Ying Zheng was startled.”
Qin Yun swept his gaze across the incense table." The three incense sticks beside the incense burner are Divine Incense."”
"Use the torch on the right side of the incense table to ignite it.”
"It's not that I don't know incense," Ying Zheng frowned and said,"I…"
There were already incense sticks in the Qin Dynasty, but they were not lit for sacrifice, but for smoking clothes or refreshing the indoor air.
The fragrance of the sacrifice was made by burning the blood and fat of the animals on the bamboo pole.
If the standard of the sacrifice was a little higher, it would only be a wine brewed with Yuyue fragrant wine or alcohol.
It wasn't until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Taoism flourished, that incense and candles began to be used for sacrifices.
But halfway through his words, Ying Zheng still shut his mouth, nodded and said,""I understand."
Upon seeing Ying Zheng light the three incense sticks, Qin Yun shook the wooden sword in his hand and took a step forward. He shouted in a deep voice.
"Taiyuan Haoshi Thunder Fire Essence, gather Yin and Yang to defend the Thunder City!”
With that said, Qin Yun took another step to the left and shouted again.
"Guan Bo's wind and fire ascend the abyss court, and his wind and fire stir up ghosts!”
Following that, Qin Yun used the Seven Stars Steps as he shouted continuously.
"The four emperors have ordered us to move quickly!”
"The rain will fall in an instant, and the lightning will drive the dragon out of the Xuanhong!”
Qin Yun bellowed as he pointed his sword at the sky.
"I'm holding a curse and going to do it quickly. This is the Penglai Qin Yun Token. Those who dare to refuse will be punished severely!”
"Urgent!"
"Brother Zheng, insert the incense!"
Upon hearing Qin Yun's mysterious shout, Ying Zheng's reaction was slower by half a beat. Only then did he insert the incense stick into the incense burner.
Zhao Li sneered when he saw this and said in a low voice,"At this moment, there are no clouds in the sky. So what if he shouts?”
"It's broad daylight, how can it rain?"
Meng Yi also looked up at the sky and shook his head speechlessly."This person doesn't have any brains to cheat.”
"If he did this on a cloudy day, he might really be able to catch up with the rain.”
"But now? Haha."
Wang Wan stroked his beard and chuckled." This is good too. This way, His Majesty will not be bewitched by such a swindler."”
"This is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor. According to the law, he should be executed!”
All the courtiers sentenced Qin Yun to death.
Even Ying Zheng was filled with doubts.
Only Qin Yun was still putting on a show.
"Incense Burning Jade Furnace, Heart False Incense Transmission."
"Today, I announce that I will go all the way to the Nine Heavens!"
Qin Yun swung the wooden sword in his hand again and shouted hoarsely,""Thunder!"
