"Someone will tell you?" duanmuya frowned and didn't understand: "isn't the exile Festival presided over by your nobles?"
Lord Fang said faintly, "we presided over the operation, but the rules and rituals of each year are determined by 'others'. For example, the supervisor told you not to laugh today, and the instructions and maps you got are the information given by' others'."
"Who is this person?"
Lord Fang said, "we call them exiles. We don't know who they are. Anyway, every exile Festival, these people will appear without warning, mysterious and powerful. That is such a group of people. They stipulate that we can't go out at will on the exile Festival. We must go out according to the regulations and follow the instructions they give."
"What if you don't do what they say?"
"Must be punished."
Duanmu yawang pondered and said, "must the punishment be carried out? What will be the consequences if the punishment of exile is not carried out?"
"The consequences will make you regret that you couldn't escape."
"Oh?"
Lord Fang pulled the corner of his lips, "if Miss Duanmu doesn't believe it, I can give you an example."
Duanmu yawang: "I'm all ears."
"Ximen yingyue and Ximen yuntu Duanmu know each other, right?"
"Yes." Lord Fang suddenly mentioned them, which surprised Duanmu yawang. "Why do you talk about their brother and sister?"
"Miss Duanmu has just come to our exile street. It is estimated that many things are not clear, and it is even more impossible until the Ximen family has been strong for decades. Moreover, in recent decades, it has been a dominant family, and its arrogance has grown so strong that it is directly called the Emperor. No one can shake the whole exile street."
Duanmu yawang was surprised: "doesn't it mean that there can't be a king in exile street?"
Can't the king, let alone the emperor?
"Yes." Lord Fang nodded. "However, for decades, the Ximen family hasn't had anything, and everyone doesn't care about it. There are also some small families who want to cut the tribe to be king." it's estimated that Lord Fang paused, picked up the cup, drank up a cup of tea, and then continued to speak: "Until seven years ago, there was a pingqi ceremony on an exile Festival."
Night Lane shadow was curious for a moment, and interrupted and asked, "what is the pingqi ceremony? How to solve this?"
"The instructions we received at that time were suppression, uprooting and justice."
Duanmu yawang was stunned and subconsciously opened his mouth: "is it necessary to suppress and pull up the nobles who claim to be the king in order to show justice?"
"That's right."
Lord Fang said faintly, "unfortunately, this shows that no one cares about it. No one knows what the crackdown is about."
Speaking of this, he asked Duanmu yawang, "as I said just now, every family must send one person every exile Festival, right?"
"Yes."
Lord Fang raised his lips: "at that time, every family in the polar region also had representatives to participate in the pingqi ceremony. The pingqi ceremony at that time was a very ordinary ceremony. Only when distributing the brocade bag, the families who were called the emperor and the king received the punishment brocade bag, while others received all the red brocade bags."
Duanmu yawang was stunned. "So, the punishment of the exile Festival is actually aimed at some phenomena in the exile street, which has nothing to do with whether he did something wrong during the ceremony."
"No, it doesn't matter." Lord Fang couldn't cry or laugh. "Part of the exile Festival is really the phenomenon of exile street, but many people were punished for their mistakes in attending the ceremony."
Night nongying couldn't wait. "What did those families who participated in the pingqi ceremony say in that way in the punishment brocade bag they received at that time?"
Lord Fang's eyes sank and said slowly, "sacrifice one person a year."
Night makes shadow puzzled: "what do you mean?"
"Since there is a sacrifice, it is naturally related to the memorial ceremony." Xiao Wuzheng interrupted, "it means that how many years you have been emperor and king, then you will send how many people to the memorial ceremony as sacrifices in the way of one person a year."
Duanmu Ya looked at her eyelids and suddenly moved, "is the memorial ceremony made of living people?"
"Yes."
Lord Fang nodded and asked Duanmu yawang, "Miss Duanmu, you have also been punished. You should know that there must be a memorial ceremony for the punishment, right?"
"Yes..."
However, the punishment content asked her to participate in the memorial ceremony. Is she allowed to participate as an audience or as a sacrifice?
Lord Fang smiled, "I have hardly heard of anyone who can pass the punishment content of the ceremony, but miss Duanmu passed. To be honest, if other people in the exile Street know about it, they will be surprised."
Duanmu yawang smiled and didn't answer.
"Don't digress from the topic." ye nongying can't wait, "Simon's family, what's the end?"
Lord Fang continued the content just now: "the Ximen family has been called the emperor for decades. According to the punishment content, it is to let them choose dozens of people as sacrifices. Although the Ximen family is huge and lush, dozens of people will shake their roots and threaten the position of the emperor if they lose dozens of people."
Duanmu yawang guessed, "so, Simon's family doesn't want to do it?"
"Yes."
Lord Fang nodded, "of course, the Ximen family was unwilling to do it. At that time, many big families were unwilling to do it. Only some families that had just been established for a year or two and had a weak foundation chose the victims and sacrificed them. At the same time, they also abolished being king and surrender themselves."
Night nongying was very nervous and hurriedly asked, "what's the result? What's the result?"
"As a result, the families that were chosen to sacrifice the victims spent the year safely. For families that did not fulfill the punishment, such as the Ximen family, people in each family continued to die in various ways, and the number of people who died was double the number of people who sacrificed one person a year!"
As soon as these words fell, Duanmu yawang and night shadow took a breath, "double?"
This is terrible!
"Yes."
Lord Fang nodded and said, "at that time, the Ximen family was particularly miserable. Hundreds of Ximen people died almost a year."
"So many?" night Nong Ying exclaimed, "a hundred people, it's very big, isn't it different from extermination?"
"Yes." Lord Fang nodded: "the life of exile street is not long. The number of families must not be compared with the people outside. Hundreds of people are already a large family. However, it is said that the Ximen family should have been destroyed in those years, because if the number doubled, all the Ximen family members should have died."
"Yes, isn't there Ximen yingyue and Ximen yuntu at Ximen's house now?"
"Yes, Ximen's family is still behind. It's lucky." Fang Lanzhou took a sip of tea and said, "I don't know why Ximen yuntu didn't die. He just survived, but one eye suddenly disappeared."
Duanmu yawang always wondered why Simon yuntu was wearing an eye mask. Unexpectedly, it was because of this.
She asked again, "isn't it just enough? How did Simon yingyue survive?"
"She was not included, because she was not born long after Simon was pregnant."
"I see." if Ximen yuntu also died at that time, it is estimated that Ximen yingyue is really the only one left in the whole Ximen family!
After hearing this, night Nong Ying couldn't help sighing: "this exile Festival is really terrible. It's so terrible. How can we call it a festival? It's estimated that no one in exile Street likes such a festival?"
Lord Fang smiled bitterly, "in fact, people born in exile Street are unfortunate, and they can't compare with you outsiders. However, for people in low and middle areas, exile Festival is actually nothing terrible. They have no scruples about exile Festival, because they are already punished because they were born in low and middle areas."
Well, after a meal, he said, "the exile Festival is actually aimed at people in the high and polar regions, especially the nobles. Many people die every year because of the exile Festival."
"So the exile Festival is actually terrible for you. Therefore, you never mentioned too much about the exile festival to Miss Fang?"
"Yes."
Lord Fang sighed, "the more you know, the more scared and sad you will be. After all, maybe if you are not careful, the people around her will die because of the exile Festival."
