Chapter V Sacrifice
Is the ceremony really effective?
There should be some, otherwise, there should not be four words "ritual reinforcement" on the progress bar.
Can staying, really divide the effect of the ritual?
I don’t know, Li Qi didn’t understand at all. He just gambled.
I will live a daze, be a boatman, and spend my whole life betrayal.
He doesn't want to do this.

At this moment, on the other side.
Upstairs of Guanhe in the Lishui River.
In order to monitor the water level anytime, anywhere, and to have a view of the city, there is a river viewing building on the banks of the river.
The building is a hundred feet high and towering high, even modern skyscrapers rarely have this height.
The lower floor is a restaurant tram, but after reaching thirty feet, idle people are not allowed to enter. As for the top floor, it is usually managed by the river channel officials, responsible for river management, monitoring of passing ships, and in charge of dredging embankments.
The prosperity of Lizhou depends entirely on the Lishui River.
The safety of the Lishui River is related to the livelihood of a state, and its importance is self-evident. Therefore, no outsiders appear except for the officials who serve in Guanhe.
But today, there were many altars on Guanhe Tower, and nine other witches wearing masks and strangely dressed in witches.
These witches were wearing lotus leaves and water plants, wearing lotus crowns, and painted seven colors on their faces, twisting their bodies, muttering words in their mouths.
Between the altar and the witch, there is a man with disheveled hair, a wooden oar in his hand, and a simple loose robe.
He chanted in his mouth, "There are distances in heaven and earth, and each of them has its own resources. The craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty, the horns of the east, the golds of the west, the horns of the south, and the mines of the north, are in their land and cannot be good. They need to be moved elsewhere. This is called the benefit of circulation!"
"Alas! The god of Lishui is to use the treasures and wonders of all directions to provide them with them, and to build boats to travel the water. The 90 million troops travel thousands of miles, and his achievements are immeasurable and the people admire him!"
He shouted for sacrifice and danced his boat and oars.
The witches next to them picked up the drumsticks and beat the drums made of crocodile skin hard.
Crocodile, known as crocodile in ancient times, has its skin that can make drums, and drum beats can please the water god.
As I went through this journey, then... I saw a strange energy rising in the entire Lizhou City.
Following this, there was a sudden gurgling stream of water flowing out of the altar.
These water flowed into the man holding the oars in the middle.
The man continued to shout: "At the beginning of spring, the weather is born! Harmonize the cold and warmth, naturally and casually, open the spirit and cheer the body, remove the dirt in the heart, clear and clear, as if invisible, the precious sand is reflected, and there is no depth to shine! Turn and pour it into pieces, and remove my veins!" (现:zi, referring to disaster.)
He was flooded by the current.
The witches around stopped, sweating profusely, and sat on the ground to rest.
Their dance didn't look very tiring, but looking at their current appearance, it seemed as if they hadn't had a rest for ten days in a row, and even their muscles were spasming, sweat was like a fountain, and they were slumped on the ground and unable to move.
At this time, a young boy came out.
If Li Qi was here, he would definitely recognize that this was the young boy who was with the "Li Zhuang Gang"!
"The country's major affairs are only sacrifices and military affairs. The county magistrates do their best to preside over the festival every year. The king must be very happy to know it." The young student looked at the man wrapped in the water and said so.
"Why did Mr. Zhu say this? Sacrifice is the foundation of the witch's way. Dalu Kingdom establishes the country with the witch's way and respects ghosts and gods. How could it be that it is not about sacrifice?" The county magistrate floated in the water, but could speak normally.
After a closer look, his chest was even rising and falling, obviously breathing.
In the water, still breathing.
"The witch's way is established? But there is no witch's way, and there is no big divination in the palace. There is no scattered person (shì jìn, a person who reads the spirit and divination), but the divination person set up counties, county magistrates, respect the king, and establish bureaucrats. Is this witch's way, or humanity?" The young student known as Mr. Zhu said with a smile.
But when the county magistrate heard this, he couldn't laugh, and his expression suddenly became subtle.
"Mr. Zhu's words are serious. Of course, the Dalu Kingdom is based on the witch's way. It is just that the human way is good at gathering the power of sentient beings. If you want the country to expand its strength, you must borrow the skin of the human way." The county magistrate immediately defended.
"That would be the best." Mr. Zhu nodded, looking like he wanted to say something else.
But the county magistrate didn't want him to say anything again, so he quickly answered: "Mr. Zhu, I heard that you have been very close to the Qianshou Bai Ding recently and often traveled among the poor. Why is this?"
"I had a great sacrifice a few years ago and found that a heretic thing would appear in Lizhou City, so I just asked them to look for it." Mr. Zhu waved his hand and said nothing about this trivial matter.
"Although the things of the heretics are a bit strange, they are mostly waste and useless. It is a bit... extravagant to search for this with a high sacrifice." The county magistrate reminded.
"It's nothing. The sacrifice is for divination of good and bad luck, not for special searches, but just an unexpected gain." Mr. Zhu seemed to answer casually.
Then, before he could continue to speak, his expression suddenly became confused: "Mr., I see your ritual, why does it seem that your power has weakened a little?"
"It has reached the end of the festival, and it is common to weaken it, and it will fluctuate normally." The county magistrate didn't seem to care much. He stopped talking, but immersed in the water flow and began to absorb the power therein.
It has indeed weakened, but it is about one ten thousandth, which belongs to the category of normal fluctuations.
But Mr. Zhu looked downstairs thoughtfully.
And downstairs, in the corner.
Li Qi was lying in a strange position and chanting the sacrificial text.
Where did the tribute come from? Of course, it was read by the county magistrate!
That is the section: In Qinghua Palace, there is the god of Lishui, with forty-two Caos, and ninety million people, in charge of the affairs of the Lishui River, and you are the one who is the one who takes the boat to take a boat, to solve natural disasters, and to save the silence. Now you have a great ceremony to open a river. You can relieve the troubles and waters, eliminate sins and eliminate sins, and you should reward them.
I don’t know why, but I use Chinese characters. It has some cultural knowledge, so I can understand it.
So, he made a little modification and changed it to: We are the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is trying hard to pull the boat, and then changed the following one to: Now the river ceremony is opened, my Cao Qi will relieve the water of troubles, eliminate sins and eliminate sins, please reward!
Is it useful?
Of course it is useful!
Because the progress bar has moved!
He tried many times before, modifying it word by word, including his body movements, many times. Originally, he was waiting while standing, but found it was completely useless.
Even when the progress bar of the river opening ceremony reached 99.6%, he had no intention of being moist.
Then, Li Qi immediately began to try something else.
He changed his posture and changed his tribute, and tried many times, but it was useless.
Because he has realized one of the functions of the progress bar, that is, to determine whether something is useful!
If it is useful, then there will definitely be a progress bar to describe the progress!
He tried for a full three quarters of an hour, and finally found himself prostrating. When facing the Lishui River and praying, the progress: "Ritual strengthening, one percent." Finally popped up!
Just when he finally tried to find a method, the progress bar of the opening ceremony had reached 99.8%.
