Chapter 347: Concealing the Truth



It turns out that having a meal is still necessary.

After all, if you are full, you have to do physical work. Who can bear it if you don’t eat?

Compared with the major event of the village being destroyed, Qi Yan's grandmother's funeral seemed much more insignificant.

Or maybe it could be said that everyone had been mentally prepared for the death of Qi Yan's grandmother.

Qi Yan's grandmother has paid a lot for Qi Yan over the years. As early as when Qi Yan was a child, she forced him to use forbidden techniques in order to buy him a glimmer of hope.

When Qi Yan grew up a little bit, his luck gradually began to show.

In order for Qi Yan to live like an ordinary person, Qi Yan's grandmother spent a lot of energy looking for capable people and paid a huge price to obtain a talisman.

This time, Qi Yan's grandmother exhausted her life for Qi Yan, so it can be said that she was justified.

Qi Yan's grandmother is considered the saint of their Gu Village clan, otherwise Qi Yan would not be able to represent the entire village in swearing allegiance to Song Ning.

The saint's funeral was grand, and after discussing with the village chief, Song Ning decided to hold it in a grand and elaborate manner.

It is even necessary to summon the clansmen living in other places to give the perpetrators an opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop.

Those who are responsible for destroying Gu Village will definitely not miss such a good opportunity to attack. They will definitely choose to act on the night of the burial.

If they could choose the timing, Song Ning's plan would be more certain.

Now that the plan was finalized, the villagers in the village became busy all of a sudden.

The funeral ceremony for the saint was grand, and to complete Song Ning's plan, a lot of preparation had to be done.

For a while, there were almost no idle people in the village, and He Yi was assigned a lot of work by Song Ning.

Needless to say, Song Ning and Qiao Bo were very busy.

After being depressed for a night, Qi Yan finally joined the busy team.

Three days passed in a flash.

It was a hot day and the bodies could not bear the heat, so they had to be buried as soon as possible.

On the day of Qi Yan's grandmother's burial, the entire village was in mourning. All 283 people in Gu Village wore Gu tribe costumes to attend the funeral of the saint.

Song Ning and others also put on the Yi ethnic costumes specially prepared for them by the village chief.

The traditional burial method of their tribe is rock burial, but Qi Yan’s grandmother was willing to be reborn as an animal after her death for Qi Yan.

Naturally, there is nothing much to be particular about.

Qi Yan's grandmother had already arranged her own funeral affairs, and she had stated that she wanted to be cremated.

The most grand and lively ceremony was held in Tian. The tribesmen who were traveling outside and the villagers from all over the country came to watch the ceremony and filled the largest square in the village.

The village chief and the villagers in the village had already prepared a sumptuous buffet, and everyone who came sat down at the table to eat.

After the lively evening, the highlight of the night begins.

According to the rules of Gu Village, funerals are held at midnight and no outsiders are allowed to be present.

Song Ning, Qiao Bo and He Yi followed the clan rules and moved aside.

Brought to the holy altar of their tribe personally by the village chief, Qi Yan and a group of villagers had been waiting for a long time again.

The village chief is not among them. The plan formulated by Song Ning always needs someone to urge him, and he is the best candidate.

What's more, the other party's target is the golden silkworm Gu, and if he, the village chief, is not there, it would arouse suspicion.

This is a huge cave in the mountain with many passages leading to different places. Even the person who is most familiar with the terrain will still get lost here without someone familiar to lead the way.

Everyone present was silent. Whether Song Ning's plan to conceal the truth would succeed depended on tonight.

Qi Yan brought over a wooden barrel without saying a word, and then cut his palm without hesitation under the gaze of everyone.

Blood flowed into the wooden barrel. After about a bowl of blood had flowed out, Qi Yan clenched his fists and moved away.

Zhai Fang took a step forward, quickly filling that position, and then stabbed his own palm without hesitation...

hiss…

He Yi shuddered. What kind of bloody sacrificial ritual was this? !

Song Ning felt pain in her eyes, and hid behind Qiao Bo with her teeth bared. Qiao Bo considerately helped her block her view.

He Yi glanced at Song Ning with envy. At this moment, he also wished he could turn into a delicate and soft girl.

This way you can hide behind others openly.

The little fox glanced at him with disdain and went to find Song Ning with disgust.

Ah Hu moved closer to Song Ning's legs uneasily, hiding his big head behind Song Ning, leaving only his huge butt exposed.

Song Ning: ...

Only caring about the beginning and not the end, is this what love is all about? !

Xiao Yi had adapted well to the situation and was now happily having fun on Ah Hu.

The little fox jumped up, arrogantly nestled on Ah Hu's back and began to catch up on his sleep.

Ah Hu was angry but dared not say anything. He could only stare at Song Ning with his big eyes.

Song Ning made a helpless expression, and Ah Hu immediately closed his eyes in despair.

After spending a long time with Xiaoyu and the little fox, Ah Hu's IQ has increased rapidly.

Especially the little expression after being bullied, which makes people want to bully it again next time.

The villagers' bloody ceremony is still going on. After the village front is the village east.

These two people are Qi Yan’s trusted playmates, and they must hold high positions in Gu Village.

After Zhaidong, the remaining villagers lined up in order of seniority and cut their palms to let the blood flow.

The smell of blood in the cave gradually became stronger.

By the time everyone had finished bleeding, the big wooden barrel that Qi Yan brought over was already full.

Qi Yan picked up the wooden barrel that was mixed with the blood of all the clan members and poured it all into a stone basin placed beside the altar.

The stone basin was no more than fifty centimeters in diameter, and it was filled with a bucket of blood but had not yet overflowed.

Song Ning took a few curious glances and found that the bottom of the stone basin was connected to the altar, and there was a deep blood groove on the altar.

The entire blood groove is dark red in color, connecting the entire altar to form a rather strange formation pattern.

After Qi Yan poured the blood into the bucket, the blood flowed along the grooves and covered the entire altar.

The altar is huge, a semicircle with a diameter of seven or eight meters. No wonder it requires the blood of so many people.

If you can only grab one person, even if you turn that person into a mummy, it probably won't be enough to meet the health needs of the altar.

The altar was close to a smooth stone wall. After Qi Yan poured the bucket of blood, the blood instantly flowed throughout the entire groove.

Blood flowed in, and the array pattern was instantly lit up. Song Ning seemed to see the runes on the altar light up in a trance.

But before she could get a closer look at the rune, the light disappeared and she could no longer see the full picture.

"what are they doing?"

He Yi sneaked up to Song Ning and expressed his feelings in a timid manner.

"Why do I feel like the cave has suddenly become cold..."

Song Ning rubbed her arms and glanced at him, "It's not your illusion, it's really getting colder here..."

Qiao Bo subconsciously wanted to unbutton his coat and put it on Song Ning, but as soon as he raised his hand, it suddenly turned and hugged Song Ning's shoulders, holding her in his arms.

He had been wrong before, always thinking that Song Ning was still young and he should give her enough time to make a choice.

But now he knows that Song Ning is quite emotionally dull, so his previous behavior is no longer appropriate.
