Chapter 506: The Sacrifice Project Begins



Worship heaven and earth and parents, the former symbolizes the mother of the world and the latter represents the parents in life.

This wedding not only left a deep impression on non-Shuguang members, but also made Shuguang members look forward to it.

The relatives and friends of both Gou Junbao and Xiao Lili were even more eye-opening.

I met guardians who are rarely seen in normal times, and all kinds of human and non-human creatures, and even came into close contact with legendary beings such as the Monkey King and the Sage of Dawn.

For Qin Xiaoxia, this wedding is also of great significance. As he said in his speech, this wedding not only symbolizes a new beginning for Gou Ge and Xiao Lili, but also is one of the symbols of the true meaning of Shuguang's inheritance.

The special powers of the new alien world are not well developed, let alone technology, so the understanding of its own world is still at a relatively superficial stage. In addition, there seems to be no other world to communicate with, so the name of this world is still blank.

Perhaps it is because the body of thoughts has a promoting effect on the physical body after absorbing the soul elements, which allows Qin Xiaoxia to apply the association's "soul feedback" knowledge to this body to a certain extent.

After several days of recuperation, Qin Xiaoxia's new body in the alien world can basically move freely, provided that he does not do some strenuous exercise that will tear the wound.

During this period of time, Qin Xiaoxia was basically traveling, heading towards the so-called Holy Kingdom of Light. However, before that, he had to pass through the United Kingdom of Midoa City-States and the Gunningsen Empire.

Because he was a wounded soldier, he naturally could not gallop on his horse like a paladin, so it took more than a week of Earth time for the body of this real Ferfini to slowly leave the border of Qinggele.

Two camels and horses, and a tall, sturdy figure in old clothes.

Ferfeni stood at the edge of a mound on which a stone about one meter high was chiseled into a regular square shape.

"The border of the Qinggele Empire, the 327th year of the Fiery Fire."

If you look closely at the footprints around the guard post, you can see a clear horseshoe-shaped road. Different from the road leading out of the country, it is an arc that extends from the inner side of the Qinggele Empire along the boundary marker.

These horseshoe prints should belong to border patrol scouts, but now is not the time for them to patrol.

Military, humanities, legends, folk customs... Qin Xiaoxia understands everything about this world from all aspects in his own way, and will not miss the opportunity to observe.

It is not difficult to enter the border of another country here, and there is no such thing as smuggling or not. On the contrary, the territories of major nobles and cities under the rule of the empire are sometimes under martial law.

So Qin Xiaoxia crossed the border easily.

Even if Leit Solo stood in front of Ferfeni now, he would not be able to recognize him as the former bandit.

On the one hand, it was dark and chaotic at the time, and the Paladin had no time or need to remember what the bandits looked like. He just needed to execute them.

On the other hand, although Qin Xiaoxia did not have any personal quirks, he could not tolerate the robbers' clothing style.

That couldn't be called ugly, it was simply extremely cowardly. Even the casual Qin Xiaoxia couldn't stand it. Coupled with some "plot needs", he changed his dressing style and even his clothing style.

The clothes on the man riding on the camel now look very simple and old, with tears everywhere, but the layered clothes keep him basically neat.

A yellow-gray scarf was half around the neck, and the two parts, one long and one short, fluttered in the wind behind her, like two uneven but weathered slender cloaks.

The front part of the scarf was pulled up to cover the mouth and nose, as if to block the wind and dust. It was a low-quality metal helmet that Qin Xiaoxia had taken time to hammer and modify in the evening, and it became a rough curled-edge metal hat.

The weapons on his waist and back show that this traveler is not an ordinary civilian.

On the whole, it shows a lone ranger with a special temperament, and reveals a hint of Western style belonging to another world.

From appearance to breath, and even soul, he is very different from the previous bandits.

Because he had established an entangled induction with the mental fluctuations of a few observation subjects such as Leyte and Brant, even though this longing was manifested in the role of a soul in this physical body, Qin Xiaoxia could still vaguely sense the direction and approximate distance of those people.

Moreover, Qin Xiaoxia can occasionally gather a new body of thought and appear beside Leit, Blantai, the Emperor of Qinggele Empire and others.

After leaving the border of the Qinggele Empire, Leit's pace slowed down significantly, perhaps because he was a little tired and there was no policy pressure, so he rested in one of the city-states of Domia.

And Qin Xiaoxia's direction was naturally that direction.

The situation of the United Kingdom of Domia City-States is somewhat different from that of many feudal dynasties with centralized rule. Strictly speaking, each of their large city-states can be regarded as a small country.

About a hundred years ago, in order to fight against the powerful countries surrounding them, in order to avoid becoming the nutrients of the major powers, and in order to maintain their own status, the various city-states gradually united together to keep each other warm, and eventually formed the United Kingdom of Domia City-States.

Each city-state has its own legislative and law enforcement powers, and when it comes to truly national affairs, the national parliament meets to make decisions.

The king is elected and is not hereditary for life. His role is more like a speaker than a dictator.

This made Qin Xiaoxia feel very interesting. Although the masters of the city-states were still like little kings and most of them had all the bad habits of the nobles, in such a different world, the overall national level was a very special governing model.

Perhaps people on Earth would think that this is an advanced national political system, but although Qin Xiaoxia finds it interesting, he does not think this model is very advanced.

Everything has to be viewed in context.

Although the United Kingdom of Domia seems very similar to certain systems on Earth, their various city-states do not cooperate harmoniously like a country. The relationships between them are extremely complicated, with both good and bad. Even the joint army cannot cooperate closely at critical moments, like a pile of loose sand.

In contrast, once a wise monarch appears in the surrounding major countries, the country's external threat will be greatly enhanced.

If it weren't for the checks and balances among the surrounding major powers, the United Kingdom of Domia City-States alone would not be able to maintain the current situation.

Lying on the camel's back, Qin Xiaoxia read the book he had bought at a high price that introduced the Kingdom of Domia, while letting the camel move in one direction alone.

Naturally, the book would not reveal the previous problems. All of this was analyzed by Qin Xiaoxia himself through the descriptions in the book.

There are many traveling merchants on the surrounding roads, and Domya is recognized as one of the most suitable places for doing business. Of course, the competition is also very fierce.

A child on a truck looked curiously at a person riding a horse alone not far away, and found that the traveler was lying on the back of a camel, and the camel moved forward obediently without any need to control it with hands.

At the same time, in the inn where Leit Solo was resting, a priest in a white church robe found the paladin who was having a meal in a corner of the hall.

Leit raised his head and prayed to the priest outside the hall from a distance. He continued to eat the food on the plate without waiting for the priest to return the prayer.

Before he even got close, the priest couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He was well-known for his seriousness within the church.

"Lord Solo... It's great that you can come to the city-state of Fanite. We didn't know this a few days ago. If you don't mind, why don't you stay in the church?"

"No."

"Uh... then do you need us to do anything, such as replenishment and weapon replacement and maintenance, or replacing camels and horses?"

"No."

Leyte's answer was bland.

The priest hesitated for a moment, then took out a small purse from his pocket and gently placed it on the table. There was a slight sound of metal friction and collision, and the golden color inside the open corner of the pocket could be seen.

"Well, this is a gift from our church, for Master Hand of Punishment as travel expenses, so..."

Before he could say anything, the priest was met with a pair of cold eyes, which made the priest's breathing stagnate.

"Ah! That's right, Lord Solo! The Qinggeli Empire is going to hold a large-scale ancient sacrificial ceremony to apologize to the Supreme God for the previous incident... The church believes that the Qinggeli Empire is afraid of divine punishment and wants to take this opportunity to put pressure on them again!"

Leit narrowed his eyes and ignored the priest as he carefully took back the gold coins.

"A sacrificial ceremony?"

"Yes, yes! It's a very grand sacrificial ceremony. It is said that they are planning to carve a large altar on the peak of a high mountain!"

At the same time as the priest's words reached the ears of the Paladin, far away at the foot of a high mountain in the Qinggele Empire, a large number of laborers were pushing slotted wheeled carts up the mountain. The long team stretched for several kilometers, and the baggage and tools were countless.
