Sacrifice to the moon is an indispensable part of the Mayan people's sacrifice to the feather snake god at midnight.
Some people say that it is because the ancestors of the Maya went to the moon. Others say that the plumed serpent god lives on the moon. Others say that the moon is the ultimate dwelling place of mankind at the end of the world, so they worship it.
There is no one to verify which of the above statements is correct, but we all know that if the moon does not come out tonight, the sacrificial ceremony will not be held. As the high priest, Hu Yeo knows this very well in his heart.
Why doesn't the moon come out?
This is absolutely because the high priest made a woman to dedicate to the great God. He got angry and blocked the moon!
Hundreds of thousands of Maya believers thought like this and came to the pyramid shouting "change the sacrifice.".
Listening to the rising voice under the tower and watching the crowd slowly approaching, jueo's legs began to tremble. He was really worried that he would be pulled down from the top of the tower by those fanatical Mayans (or believers), and then be torn to pieces.
As for whether the moon and stars are covered by the night because of the "unqualified" sacrifice, Hu Yeo is still uncertain. His only certainty is that if he still stands here like a fool, he will surely be torn to pieces by more and more angry believers!
What should I do... With this in mind, Hu Yeo turned and looked at Chai wantonly, who was standing at the forefront of the left tower top.
Unlike the majority of the Mayans, Chai Fansi did not believe that the moon did not come out because shanglige was not a virgin.
However, he is very clear: hundreds of thousands of people under the tower have such stupid ideas.
Chai Fang Si's only way to completely "conquer" these Mayans is to rely on the bracelet to become the plumed serpent god in their mind. There is no other way.
It seems that the plan of relying on Shang lige to kill Chu Yang tonight will fail. Just, let this woman go for a while, so as not to arouse the anger of these stupid people... Chai Fangsi tightly pursed the corners of his mouth, and then nodded slightly to Hu Yeo.
After seeing Chai Fangsi's consent, jueo gasped immediately, then raised his staff high in his hand, and cried out: "don't ask me about it, because I don't know. It's about telling the congregation that they have agreed to their request.", Ha... "
Sure enough, after huyeo yelled a few times, the noise under the tower gradually calmed down, and the excited people on their faces also stopped approaching.
After everyone calmed down, Hu Yeo, who was sweating all over, finally had some peace of mind. He quickly turned to the four saints and said, "come on, you first help the sacrifice down the tower, and let lelinger (Hu Yeo's successor) quickly present the spare bull head!"
The four scared pale saints did not dare to neglect after receiving the order. They quickly set up shanglige and dragged her down the kukurkan pyramid.
"Shoot her, shoot her!"
After seeing shanglige put down by the saint, those fanatical believers will come and kill her, because it is her impure that keeps the moon from coming out.
The four saints, who were responsible for supporting Shang Lige, were shocked when they saw countless believers shouting slogans and coming step by step from the front of the pyramid. Someone released jiuer's arm and prepared to leave: if these believers rushed, they would be torn to pieces. Who is not afraid?
Just when the Four Saints let go of shanglige and were ready to turn around and run away, several shadows jumped out from behind the pyramid.
Before the saints could figure out what these people were doing, they grabbed jiuerjie, who was paralyzed on the ground, turned around and ran to the back of the tower!
Seeing that someone suddenly turned out from behind the tower and robbed shanglige, the four saints were shocked. One of them just wanted to catch up with her, but was stopped by her companion: "don't go, Gree! Did you forget that no one was allowed to walk behind the tower on the night of the sacrificial ceremony? Or you'll be sent to hell by God! "
"But those people took away the sacrifice! If we don't get it back, if the Archbishop finds out, we'll die! "
The saint named Gree naturally knew that on the evening of the equinox, behind the pyramid of kukurkan, there was a forbidden zone drawn by God, forbidding mortals to pass. (this was also the reason why someone in Chu succeeded in climbing the pyramid from behind last time, but he just didn't know it at that time.)
The saint who held Gree, looked up at the high pyramid, and said nervously, "we stand in this angle, the Archbishop can't see us! Even if he wants to kill us after seeing it, it's better than being blamed by God and adding disaster to our family! Well, let's take advantage of the dark night and hurry to the place where shaikku, the former high priest, lives and beg God to bypass us
After listening to her, the other three saints were silent for a moment. Then they bit their teeth and nodded and went northeast along the base of the pyramid.
Similarly, after seeing the impure sacrifice carried to the back of the tower, the Maya who were pressing forward also stopped.
Although the impure sacrifice should die, there is no need for us to enter the forbidden area for her.
……
After seeing the surging crowd of believers shouting the bugle, Shang Lige thinks that she will die this time. Even if Chu Yang can appear at this time, he can't stop so many angry people.
However, when Shang Lige died, three shadows ran out from behind the tower, grabbed her and ran to the back!
Who are these people... In Shang Lige's great doubt, three shadows carrying her ran to the woods not far behind the tower.
Shang Lige didn't know where these people came from or where they drove her, but she didn't have the slightest way, because she didn't even have the strength to speak now.
Soon, Shang Lige was carried into the woods about 500 meters away from the pyramid by three shadows. After running for more than 100 meters, he put her down.
Although Shang Lige has no strength on her body, she can open her eyes. She can see that a dark shadow jumps down from a tree above her head.
After the shadow jumped down, he quickly bent down and took her into his arms. He said to a man on the left, "thank you, Jin Xi'er, this time!"
Since being arrested, Shang Lige has been drugged, and she has no strength. She wants to close her eyes like this and never wake up... But because Xiaoming may lose her life at any time, she has been using her last perseverance to force herself to keep awake.
But after being held in her arms by this person, Shang Lige's nervous tension all over her body immediately relaxed. She just wanted to say something, but it was dark at the moment, and then she didn't know anything.
……
Because of the angle, Chai Fangsi and others standing at the top of the tower can't see what happened under the tower.
Besides, the pyramids are all black. There are only seven torches above the top of the pyramids. The people standing below can clearly see the people above, but the people above can't see the people below. Therefore, Chai Wanfang and others didn't find that shanglige had been robbed, and the Four Saints didn't report.
They are only relieved to see that all the believers have stopped shouting and no longer pressing to this side.
After seeing all this, Hu Yeo was finally in the mood to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, but his nerves were always tense: if the moon didn't come out after the bull's head was sent up, what should I do and how should I explain to these people?
If Shang lige is not seen as a little woman, the moon will not come out. Of course, no matter what happened to Hu Yeo, even though he is a high priest, it seems that the high priest can't manage these things, right?
But the problem is that Shang lige is not a virgin by those "men of insight"!
In this way, the majority of the congregation can put the reason why the moon doesn't come out on the head of hueo: if you don't get a Siberian, then God won't be angry!
So, the biggest worry today is Hu Yeo.
Chai Fangsi forced Hu Yeo to do all this, but dare he say so?
……
Those angry Mayans, after seeing the sacrifice being sent down from the top of the tower, felt much better. Once again, they sat on the ground and looked up at the top of the tower.
Moreover, some experienced old people also take this opportunity to tell the people around them: "the impure sacrifice has been blasted off the top of the tower, so it's time to replace it with bull's head. I hope that the plumed serpent god can forgive the stupid practice of the high priest and let the moon appear as soon as possible, so that the moon can be sacrificed smoothly."
The voices of these people at the bottom of the tower were not too high, but Chai Fangsi at the top of the tower could hear them clearly. He naturally scoffed at this saying: "cut, a group of stupid people! Whether the moon comes out has something to do with sacrifice? If it wasn't for the large number of you, I would have killed you... "
Not to mention Chai wanton's self consolation, since Shang Lige was taken down from the top of the tower, these believers have been much more stable, and everyone is waiting for the bull head to come.
After about half a year, just as many Mayans spoke louder and louder and showed great impatience, a light finally appeared in the east of the Pyramid: several men, panting, carrying a cleaned bull's head with a stick, rushed over in time.
When huyeo ordered people to put the bull's head on the altar, the four saints who went to the place where shakeku was transformed into an immortal to worship came back in time and stood in their original position.
Except for the people on the altar who were replaced by a bull's head, the rest of the people were still in their places. Once again, they looked at the dark sky with reverent faces.
After the Four Saints came back again, Chai Fangsi had the heart to ask them: where did he send shanglige?
But he was afraid that his random walk would arouse the discontent of those believers, so he had to learn the look of jueo and look at the night with his chin facing the sky.
