The walls are not high, and you can see the top at a glance.
The walls are slightly rough and moss-grown.
Peanut flew back and reported, "Mom, it's so strange in the city. ” "What's this strange method?"
"The people on the street are all going in one direction."
Mao Xiaoyu and Luo Bo glanced at each other and said in unison: "Let's go, take a look." ” Quickly entering the city, not only did the captives wind their way towards the middle street in despair, but the common people also flocked to the front of the long street with their families.
After glancing at it casually, Mao Xiaoyu could see that the productivity was backward at this time, and the clothes worn by the people were dark in color and old.
Occasionally, ox carts passed by, and nobles sat in them.
But it's not too flashy.
In front of the priest's hall, it was already crowded with ordinary people watching the excitement and soldiers maintaining order.
The captives were also escorted over, kneeling up and down the Taiyang steps, left and right.
The sun gradually reached its peak, and there were two young men in big long sleeves on the stage, who walked out first with calm faces, and lined up on both sides, and slowly paced out an old man with wrinkles.
"Who is this?"
Mao Xiaoyu also looked at this old man's clothes very strangely.
There were a lot of messy things hanging on his body, and every step he took, there was a sound.
Luo Bo whispered: "High Priest." ” "What?"
"Presiding over the worship of the heavens.
Of course, you can ask for rain, you can win the battle, or anything. ” Mao Xiaoyu looked intently, and the expressionless high priest was angry.
Very serious, not a half-star.
"As the high priest of a national capital, without the slightest kindness and benevolence, this country is afraid that it will be over."
Mao Xiaoyu sighed faintly.
Luo Bo glanced at her out of the corner of his eye: "I'm still naïve at my age." ” "What did you say?"
Mao Xiaoyu raised her voice and asked angrily.
Luo Bo casually crossed his arms: "Are you afraid that you are confusing the priest with the monk?"
As a high priest who can control the fate of the nation, there is no need for kindness and charity. ” Mao Xiaoyu opened his mouth to argue, but he didn't know where to start.
I have to admit that what Luo Bo said has some truth.
It is not a good thing for a person who can influence the fate of a country, the kindness of mothers-in-law, mothers-in-law, mothers, and women.
As they spoke, the priest on the high platform began to gurgle and not know what to say.
But the common people below understood, fell to their knees, and cheered.
The sound waves waved, and the earth shook and the mountains shook.
"What is he talking about?"
Mao Xiaoyu couldn't hear a word clearly.
Luo Bo raised his chin: "It is to the effect that the king goes out on an expedition and returns victorious, which is favored by God, so the way to be grateful is to offer the captives as sacrifices to God, oh, and the ancestors." ” "Now?"
"Hmm."
Mao Xiaoyu looked around left and right: "There are so many people, and they are in the city again, is it possible to kill on a large scale?"
” Luo Bo listened distractedly to the priest's singing, frowning: "That's right. ” "Too cruel, isn't it?"
Peanut nodded and puffed out: "Bad guy."
It's too much. ” He also said that it was to avenge his comrades who died in the war that year.
Blood debt and blood repayment.
Well, that's right.
Luo Bo commented lightly: "It was a defeated country back then, but today it is a victorious country."
Therefore, we must pay off the blood debt of the year. ” "But ......"
Mao Xiaoyu looked at the group of black prisoners: "It may not be this group of people who picked up the butcher's knife back then." ” Luo Bo cast her a 'hopeless' look: "Who is so clear with you?"
” Mao Xiaoyu blinked, habitually held his glasses, and found that he didn't wear them at all, so he changed to pick his scalp and muttered: "That being said, I still ......"
Peanut interrupted her, anxious: "Mom, shall we go and arrest the ugly old man on the stage?"
” "Why?"

"Arrest him, you can save those people, right?"
Peanuts still can't bear it.
Mao Xiaoyu spread her hands helplessly: "Mom is more than enough but not enough."
Peanuts, you see, the steps are very high, and there are soldiers guarding them, right?
Unless my mother grows wings, she won't be able to go on stage. ” Peanut cast his expectant gaze on Luo Bo.
Luo Bo pointed his finger: "Love can't help." ” "Okay, I'll try."
Peanuts flutter their wings and fly towards the altar.
Mao Xiaoyu shouted in fright: "Peanut, don't go, come back." ” Her voice was muffled by the priest's singing and the cheers of the people, and Peanut went without hesitation.
"It's okay, let Peanut go.
He won't turn back without hitting the south wall.
Luo Bo was not worried at all.
The peanuts flew higher and higher, and they became a small black spot in Mao Xiaoyu's eyes.
The small black dot hovered above the High Priest's head, looking for an opportunity to strike.
Peanut grabbed at the high priest's hat, but he caught it and almost fell on the priest's shoulder.
Peanut was stunned, glanced at his little hand, and tried to touch the high priest's hat.
No matter how hard he tried to reach out, he couldn't reach the hat.
"Damn!"
Peanut returned in vain and got into Mao Xiaoyu's arms: "Mom, I can't stand him." ” "It's normal, Mom explained it to you.
Even though we are in the same space, maybe something is wrong, so we can only watch, not meddle. ” Peanuts with flat mouths.
"Alright, Peanut, Mommy knows you're sad.
Just get a good night's sleep in your pocket.
"Mao Xiaoyu calculates that the sacrifice of living people is about to start, right?
She didn't want Peanut to see a picture of inhumanity.
"Hmm."
Peanut was in a panic, and he didn't know what he was blocking.
After the high priest had finished singing, the most senior officials of the palace came to announce the decree on behalf of the supreme king.
The soldiers escorted the opponent's defeated general to the stage.
The defeated general looks hard to mess with, and in the face of the last moment of life and death, not only does he not bow his head and admit his mistakes, but also scolds.
In a flash of the sword, the executioner, with his big shoulders and round waist, cut off the head of the defeated general and carried it up to the priest.
The priest commanded that the offering table should be served.
In the face of the blood flow, he didn't blink an eye.
After beheading a few of the defeated generals of a slightly higher rank, and when the sacrifices were placed on the offering table, the next step was to execute the remaining captives.
The captives were not yet eligible to be sacrificed, but were carried to another gate like garbage.
A big pit has already been dug a long time ago.
Although the captives had long expected such an ending, they still inevitably cried for their fathers and mothers, and their wails were sad and resentful, which made irrelevant personnel, such as Mao Xiaoyu, unbearable to listen.
The onlookers were hard-hearted, and when they saw the enemy captives being pushed down the pit, they not only did not sympathize, but also threw stones into the pit.
"Oh my God!
Not really, right?
Mao Xiaoyu couldn't stand it anymore.
Luo Bo seemed to have seen too much life and death parting, and said as if watching a play: "Grievances and grievances are repaid."
Maybe a few years ago, the other side did the same to the prisoners here. ” "So why are you calling around?
Isn't it good to live in peace?
” "You can tell the king of Shang about this."
"You think I wouldn't dare?"
Mao Xiaoyu said hatefully: "If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't show up to communicate, I really wanted to break into the palace, lay out the facts and reason, and persuade the king of Shang to value peace and stop fighting for years." ” Luo Bo laughed at her: "I can't see it, you are so confident." ”
