Mrs. Chu's eyes flickered when she heard what Mo Siyu said, and she admitted with a straightforward smile: "I probably made a mistake.
Yuehua, put your things back in the cabinet and bring some snacks..."
Yuehua went in response.
Mo Siyu looked at Mrs. Chu calmly, and seeing that her expression was unchanged, she became more and more disturbed.
This Mrs. Chu's morality is too high, she really can't see through her mind.
If Mrs. Chu really made a mistake, she would definitely unwrap what was in the bag in person.
It is taboo to give a woman's clothes to a man by mistake.
If Mrs. Chu did it on purpose, she already knew her identity as a woman, but she didn't order Chu Chuyan to stay away from her.
Mo Siyu couldn't figure it out, but he was too embarrassed to ask clearly.
Yuehua brought the cakes to the table, probably because she had seen the contents of the package, her face was flushed, and she didn't dare to look at anyone.
Chu Chuyan also felt embarrassed, eating cakes one after another in silence.
For things that cannot be figured out, Mo Siyu generally adheres to the principle of not thinking about them as much as he can, and quickly changed the subject: "Madam, can people here not play music at will?"
"No." Mrs. Chu already knew what happened in the priest's mansion, and explained: "It's just that I can't play the two pieces of "Return to Yuan" and "Call of the Soul"."
"Why?"
""Return to the Yuan" is a repertoire that commands all things. When each high priest comes to the stage, he swears with blood, and then plays the tune, and all things belong to the high priest.
As for the "Spiritual Song", it has always been a song played by the saint in order to purify and guide the soul.
These two pieces of music not only represent identity, but also represent a kind of contract and mission. It is indeed not something that ordinary people can play casually. "
Mo Siyu was silent for a while, and asked: "Is there such a miraculous thing in this world? It's just a piece of music that can command all things, purify and guide the soul?"
Not to mention whether there is really a soul in this world, but Mrs. Qin's body is indeed immortal after being soaked in the blood of the high priest.
Chu Chuyan poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of Mo Siyu: "If I hadn't been born in Yuecheng, I would probably be the same as Brother Yu and you. I don't believe in these things at all."
Mrs. Chu said: "The ancient customs of Yuecheng have been passed down from generation to generation. Healers cure diseases and save people, and poisoners feed Gu to kill people. Wizards are a kind of poison doctors.
The saint washes people's souls, and the high priest controls everything in Moon City.
As long as the sacred flame is not extinguished, Moon City will always be under protection.
This is everyone's perception.
For example, in a few days, it will be the turn of the city lord to offer sacrifices to the river god, and I don’t know which family’s boys and girls will be given to the river god this year..."
Mrs. Chu sighed: "What a crime!"
Mo Siyu was shocked: "Sacrificing to the river god? Using virgin boys and girls?"
"Yes." Madam Chu nodded slightly.
Mo Siyu only felt thunder rolling over his head: "Sacrificing a living person?"
"Um."
"Will the child's parents be willing?"
"They are all children of poor families. If you don't want to, you have to be willing." Mrs. Chu clasped her hands together, "Ten years ago, I heard that it was raining heavily, and the rain was flooding. Someone saw the river nerve passing by at the bottom of the river.
Only after the city lord proposed the sacrifice, the weather has indeed been smooth these years, and the people of Yuecheng have lived a stable life.
It's just that the two children suffered because they were forced to separate from their parents and be taken away by the river god. "
Mo Siyu couldn't listen anymore, stood up, and ran wildly in the hall, "I thought your Moon City was controlled by the high priest, but I didn't expect there to be a city lord, what does the city lord use for food?
Brother Yan, do you think it is reliable to use virgin boys and girls to sacrifice to the river god? "
