Chapter 437 Follow quietly
"Human nature is indeed like this, but it would be best to cancel human sacrifices." Jiang Yunxi said the solution, otherwise there would be many Su Yu.
How many parents will be heartbroken at that time? They have raised their daughters with great effort for fifteen years from birth to the age of fifteen, but in the end they have to die to prolong the lives of others.
That's not killing them.
Su Yan smiled helplessly: "Girl, if I had the ability to cancel the human sacrifice, I would definitely be the first to rush up, but I can't stop it."
He certainly wanted to do it, and not only him, but many people also wanted to do it. But it couldn't be cancelled just because they wanted to, not to mention that the ritual of human sacrifice had existed for many years.
It's not something that can be cancelled just like that.
Human sacrifice is a legal act in Nanman.
"Leave it to me, I will make human sacrifice disappear completely." Jiang Yunxi's tone was determined.
"Girl, it's not that easy. The clan leader and the high priest will not agree. You can't resist them. Since you are not from the southern barbarians, can you take my sister away?"
Su Yan pleaded, saying that there had been people who resisted before, but the end result was a tragic death.
Gradually, no one dared to resist anymore.
"We came to Nanman to do business. You just said that the human sacrifice is in the temple. What a coincidence! I happen to be going to the temple. Why don't you let me take your sister's place in the human sacrifice in three days?"
Jiang Yunxi thought it was a good opportunity, otherwise, it would be difficult for them to enter the temple easily.
The empress tried several times but failed to get in.
"No, I can't let you die in my sister's place. Also, what are you going to do in the temple? Only the clan leader, the high priest, and the core members of the Nanman can enter. Anyone else who wants to go in must be brought in by them."
"It's impossible for you to enter the temple." Su Yan widened his eyes. He didn't expect that they came to Nanman just to go to the temple. They were really brave.
It seems that they don't know much about the Nanman.
The Southern Barbarians are not one of the Five Kingdoms. There are many places where even the people of the Southern Barbarians cannot go freely.
"Don't worry, leave everything to me. I will disguise myself as her when the time comes." Jiang Yunxi pointed at Su Yu. Disguise was too easy for her.
"But..." Su Yan still felt that this was not good.
She was not from the Southern Barbarians and did not know what the temple was, but he did.
She went there to die.
"Don't say but. Arrange a place for us to stay, and then go tell the people in power in your family that Su Yu is back and will go to the temple in three days." Jiang Yunxi interrupted him.
"Just listen to her." Zhan Beiyuan looked at Su Yan and said.
Su Yan looked at the two of them. Both of them had an extraordinary aura. It was obvious that they were not ordinary people, let alone the kind of people who would act recklessly.
"I'll go talk to the head of the family first. We still have three days and we can discuss it properly." Su Yan finally agreed.
The other party was willing to go to the temple for his sister, but he couldn't let her really go to die, so he could only tell her more about the temple so that she would have more idea about it.
Jiang Yunxi nodded, having just enough time to learn about the temple.
That day.
Jiang Yunxi and his group stayed at Su Yu's house. The Su family was a big family in Mancheng, and the Su Yu family was a side branch and had no status.
If a Su family girl from the direct line is unwilling to be sacrificed, they will naturally look for a suitable girl from the side line.
I guess those old guys won’t choose from the direct line, but only from the side line that has no status.
When the Su couple learned that Jiang Yunxi and the others came to help, they were grateful and worried about them, and even advised them to leave quickly, but Jiang Yunxi refused to leave.
In the end, the Su couple said nothing more and entertained them warmly.
In the evening, Su Yan returned from the head of the family.
"Miss Jiang, I have already agreed with the head of the family that they will come to pick up Su Yu in three days, which is the day after tomorrow." Su Yan said seriously.
"Sure." Jiang Yunxi was looking forward to the day after tomorrow. It was a good opportunity to learn about the Nanman during these days.
"You..." Su Yan wanted her to think about it again.
"Don't try to persuade me anymore. I won't change the decision I made. If you're really worried about me, why don't you tell us about the temple?" Jiang Yunxi smiled brightly.
She was more interested in this place.
Temple.
The name is well chosen.
The four members of the Su family nodded.
The Su family prepared a very rich dinner, all of which were excellent dishes. It was obvious that they were really trying hard to express their gratitude.
At the dinner table.
The Su family explained to Jiang Yunxi and the others what they knew about the temple, because they had never been inside and all they knew was hearsay.
"Where is the statue of your Nanman's first high priest king?" Jiang Yunxi asked.
"It's right near the temple. There is a palace where all the people of Nanman can go to worship. The current high priest also lives there." Su Yan introduced.
"Is it far from here? I want to go there after dinner." Jiang Yunxi smiled and went out to visit Nanman.
"It's not far. Su Yu and I will take you there later." Su Yan said enthusiastically, and took them to see the Barbarian City.
"Okay." Jiang Yunxi nodded.
When they went out, it was completely dark outside. The lights were on and the streets were full of people coming and going. Jiang Yunxi and his group walked along the street and headed straight for the priest's temple.
When they arrived at the priest's temple, there were many people at the door, and it seemed that they were all going in to worship.
"Is your first High Priest King very popular?" Jiang Yunxi glanced at the palace and did not see any evil or murderous aura.
"In Nanman, the high priest is on equal footing with the clan leader. It is rumored that our Nanman ancestor is a god, and so is the first high priest king." Su Yan said proudly.
Because of them, there was the powerful Southern Barbarians that outsiders dared not invade.
Although there are many bad things about Nanman, they are still proud of this place.
"Oh, they are all gods. That's really powerful. Let's go." Jiang Yunxi had an intriguing smile on his face and had no intention of going into the priest's hall to take a look.
What's so good about a fake statue? The person is not dead yet.
"Ah, aren't you going in to take a look?" Su Yan looked puzzled.
"I came here just to see how badly the southern barbarians have been deceived. It seems quite miserable, because your first high priest king is not dead." Jiang Yunxi said meaningfully.
Su Yan: “…”
Su Yu: “…”
Not dead?
That's impossible. The first high priest king died a long time ago.
As soon as Yuheng came out of the priest's hall, he saw Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan, and his eyes widened immediately. Why did they come to Mancheng?
"Do you know they are coming?" Yuheng looked at Liu Qingbai beside him.
"We happened to meet during the day." Liu Qingbai said gently.
Yuheng: “…”
What is Jiang Yunxi doing here?
Do you want to take the body parts from the temple?
After returning to Nanman, he inquired and found out that Nanman also had a piece of body parts, which were suppressed by the temple in the barbarian city.
…
The night is rich.
After Jiang Yunxi finished meditating, she was about to lie down to rest, but after thinking for a while, she got up and left the room. She wanted to see what was special about Liu Qingbai.
Why does Aunt Luan see the shadow of the Emperor in him?
Zhan Beiyuan hadn't slept all night, but was standing by the window. After seeing Jiang Yunxi leave the yard, he quietly followed her.
