The altar was a short climb up. Four large stone pillars stood on either side, and a round ball sat atop them. The ball was black and shone through. Tong Wenyao stood by, watching as Mo Lin explained, "My parents pushed themselves to open the altar for my brother. I'm afraid they won't have much time left after they're done! However, this was their parents' final wish, and it's fitting that they fulfilled it."
Tong Wen Yao saw that after the two old snakes climbed onto the altar, their bodies inexplicably grew taller, and even their scales were shining. They coiled together in the round pit on the middle of the altar.
The two old snakes sometimes intertwined, sometimes circled obediently. From their throats came an ancient chant, mysterious and leisurely! As the subtle chirping sound entered her ears, she felt her mind become clear!
After a while, a cloud parted in the sky, and a beam of light shone down on the altar! This light lasted for a long time, until midnight! Tong Wenyao did not feel tired, but instead was full of energy. Mo Lin said from the side, "I asked you to come with me for this purpose. When we offer sacrifices, the people and things around us will benefit."
After hearing what Mo Lin said, he looked around and saw that the sheep that were grazing on the lawn before now came over one by one. They had pious expressions on their faces, and their front feet were in a kneeling posture, kneeling in the opposite direction of the altar.
Even many birds were standing on the branches listening.
The ceremony continued until the next day.
A red light appeared on the horizon. After dawn, Guaiguai made a hissing sound. After eating the sixth Scale Dragon Fruit, its body began to grow rapidly. It grew to ten meters in an instant and was still growing. It stopped growing after it was as tall as the pillar.
At this moment, she looked at him from an upward perspective.
And she no longer heard Guaiguai's voice in her mind, but now she was face to face with it, and it could speak!
"Owner!"
Tong Wen Yao had tears in her eyes. She didn't expect that the first sentence Guaiguai opened his mouth was to call her master. However, she had already regarded Guaiguai as a partner. When she followed her master, Guaiguai was always with her. Even after traveling to this book, Guaiguai was the same. Moreover, she was able to travel here because of Guaiguai. She thought that in real life, she would have died long ago!
However, thinking about how she had traveled through time and space into this book and existed so vividly, she couldn't help but wonder if she had traveled through time, or if she had.
She shook her head and smiled at Guaiguai. Guaiguai then looked at its parents. However, Guaiguai communicated with its parents in snake language, which she could not understand. They would just look at her from time to time.
Tong Wen Yao guessed that the person they were discussing might be herself!
Finally, Guaiguai said, "Master, please allow me to stay here for two days."
After hearing this, Tong Wenyao said, "Guaiguai, you haven't been in contact with your family for a long time. From now on, you should stay with your family!" After hearing this, Guiguai had tears in his eyes and choked up a little, saying, "Master, don't you want me anymore?"
After hearing this, she stretched out her hand, took a look and immediately lowered her head to let her touch her.
"If you want to see me in the future, you can! When I finish my work, I can come to see you when I have time."
Guaiguai's eyes were full of rejection. To it, Tong Wen Yao was its spiritual pillar. In the era when zombies were rampant, it was bullied by other snakes. It was only after meeting Tong Wen Yao that it was no longer bullied. Instead, Tong Wen Yao took care of it all the time.
One of the two snakes behind her said, "Girl, I think you should treat our Mo Yu well. We only have one or two days left to live. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for one or two days." These were her obedient parents. Naturally, she could wait and would wait.
Guaiguai looked back at his parents with tears in his eyes. He had just recognized his biological parents, but now he had to say goodbye to them forever.
It was Mo Lin who interrupted the gloomy atmosphere and said, "Now that my brother has reached adulthood, we must celebrate properly. I'll catch some sheep and have a feast tonight!"
After saying that, Mo Lin went to roll up the four or five sheep with their tails and took her down to the lower place. This was the altar, and below was their house.
Mo Lin dropped the four sheep from a high place. The sheep rolled a few times and then became silent. Then, Mo Lin handed the first sheep to Tong Wen Yao, which was respectful enough for them.
Tong Wenyao looked a little embarrassed. She was a human being and couldn't swallow a single bit alive! She just stood aside and said obediently, "Brother, how do you know that my master's roasted whole lamb is delicious!"
When Mo Lin heard this, he remembered that humans didn't seem to eat raw meat. It was thanks to his younger brother's reminder. However, his younger brother seemed to have called him "big brother" just now! He was delighted and immediately held it up and said, "Of course, your big brother knows that food cooked by humans is delicious."
Since both of them, oh no, both snakes said so, Tong Wen Yao rolled up his sleeves and got to work. Even his obedient parents were watching their son with satisfaction in their eyes.
Taking into account the appetite of the four snakes and one beast, Tong Wen Yao directly roasted twenty or thirty sheep. If it weren't for their help, Tong Wen Yao didn't know how tired she would be.
However, the first bite of the roasted sheep was handed to her obediently for her to taste. Even though Mo Lin and its parents looked at the sheep eagerly, they did not eat it. Instead, they urged her to eat it.
Tong Wen Yao blew on it and when she realized it was cool, she started to eat it. It was tender and not dry, and even had juice overflowing from it. It tasted great!
"Delicious!" After getting the taste, they devoured it with big mouthfuls. However, they still left a sheep for her. Tong Wenyao thought that she couldn't finish it, so she cut off her own portion and gave the rest to Xiaoxue! Compared to them, Xiaoxue's appetite was simply not worth mentioning.
Mo Lin was even more outrageous. After finishing his meal, he still wanted to eat more. However, he also remembered that the human in front of him was his brother's savior and couldn't be tired anymore! So he suppressed his appetite and went to clean up the house he had given her.
In fact, cleaning up is also very simple. The snakes all coiled up to rest on the rocks in the cave. But considering her, we have to take out animal fur to lay a cushion so that she won't be cold.
Tong Wen Yao originally wanted to ask Guaiguai if he could turn back into a small one, but as soon as she thought about it, Guaiguai turned back into his small form.
However, after Guaiguai came and looked around the room with her, he said, "Master, I want to go and accompany my parents." Tong Wen Yao touched his head and said, "You go! I'll take a rest." She had not rested since yesterday. She also stayed up late last night to watch Guaiguai upgrade and did not sleep either. Now she lay on the covered fur and stone surface and began to sleep soundly.
