Chapter 1340 Danger!
"Xixi, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Ying, who has always been sensitive, felt something was wrong with Nangong Xi at the first moment, and she looked at her with concern.
"Zhou Ying, if you encounter any danger later, run first." Nangong Xi said to Zhou Ying.
"Impossible, Xixi, you saved my life. In my heart, you are more important than my life. I can't run away." Zhou Ying's eyes were full of determination.
"Silly girl, I must have my reasons for letting you run." Nangong Xi looked helpless when he heard that.
"Xixi, don't think I don't know. You are just too kind. You let me run because you wanted to save my life, and you stayed to resist the danger." Zhou Ying had an expression that said, "I see through you."
Nangong Xi: ...
It's true that I want to save your life, but I won't put myself in danger.
Nangong Xi's face was full of helplessness!
"Xixi, don't try to trick me into running away when danger comes. I'm not that stupid." Zhou Ying said and looked at Nangong Xi with a determined face.
Nangong Xi saw that her face was full of words like, I'm very smart, don't try to fool me.
"Junior Sister Xixi, this is Zhoujiazhuang. Generally, there won't be any danger here." Bai Yao looked at Nangong Xi with amusement.
Nangong Xi glanced at her senior brother for a few seconds, then took out a few talismans. She urged the talismans in her hands to strike their foreheads.
At the same time, he also threw a talisman into Zhou Ying's forehead.
"Anming." Nangong Xi called out Anming who was hiding in the dark.
"Demon Concubine, what's wrong?" Hearing Nangong Xi calling him, An Ming jumped out from the darkness.
Nangong Xi first cast a talisman into Anming's forehead.
"Anming, don't go into the dark place for now, just stay here." Nangong Xi ordered Anming.
"Yes, Demon Concubine." Although he didn't know why his own Demon Concubine didn't let him stay in the dark, he just had to listen and do as she said.
The Demon Concubine’s words are the heaven, there’s no need to ask so many whys.
"Xixi, will there really be some danger soon?" Bai Yao asked worriedly as he saw his junior sister with such a serious expression for the first time.
"That's right, there is something under the altar, and it's about to explode." Nangong Xi said in a low voice, pointing at the altar below.
Bai Yao and others were very surprised when they heard this, and became alert.
At this time, everyone in Zhoujiazhuang on the altar also felt very strange.
Because according to records, the maximum number of treasures produced in the Centennial Festival is one hundred and nine, but now it has already spit out nearly two hundred treasures and is still spitting out.
With so many new treasures, the people in Zhoujiazhuang should have been happy, but they were panicking!
Because the ancestral precepts of Zhoujiazhuang state that if the altar spits out more than one hundred and nine treasures, it will be dangerous!
Must get away from the altar as soon as possible!
So the old man headed by Zhoujiazhuang quickly collected all the treasures on the altar.
"Retreat." He said, and hurriedly left the altar.
Seeing this, others also evacuated the altar.
The onlookers were dumbfounded when they saw this scene!
No one knew what had happened and why the Zhou family members on the altar became so panicked?
Only Nangong Xi understood what was happening. The thing under the altar was becoming increasingly violent.
After everyone from Zhoujiazhuang left the altar, the old man in the lead muttered something, and the entire altar was covered by a layer of barrier.
Nangong Xi looked around and found that Venerable Zhou Dan was not at the scene.
A hint of doubt flashed across Nangong Xi's eyes.
After all, Venerable Zhou Dan can be said to be the actual ruler of Zhoujiazhuang, so why is he the only one missing from such an important occasion?
"Senior Brother, apart from the sacrifice of the blood girl, is there any other explanation for the Zhoujiazhuang Centennial Sacrifice?" Nangong Xi looked at Bai Yao.
"I'm not sure about that. After all, I only heard it from my master. This is the first time I've seen it with my own eyes." Bai Yao shook his head.
"Xixi, are you wondering why Venerable Zhou Dan didn't come?" Zhou Ying on the side spoke.
"That's right." Nangong Xi nodded.
"Venerable Zhou Dan, I think you are in great danger." Zhou Ying said with a sigh.
"Ah? What's going on?" Nangong Xi's eyes widened when he heard this.
Could it be that the Zhoujiazhuang’s centennial celebration should include the celebration of their owner?
"The Centennial Festival, the so-called Grand Festival, is certainly not something that can be supported by a single blood girl like me." Zhou Ying said.
"What else?" Nangong Xi looked at her.
"And there is the owner of the manor, Venerable Zhou Shan. His flesh and blood are the key to opening the altar. Last night, we received the baptism together before the grand sacrifice." Zhou Ying's words made Nangong Xi's eyes widen.
"He's willing to do this? As the owner of the manor, he should have the right to refuse, right?" Nangong Xi's eyes were full of disbelief.
"In fact, apart from the sacrificial elder, even the owner of the manor himself doesn't know. He is also a part of the sacrifice. The day before the sacrifice, the owner of the manor will lose his soul, and he won't know what happens afterwards." Zhou Ying's tone was full of sarcasm.
"That is to say, Zhou Zigui and Zhou Zichan don't know about Venerable Zhou Dan's affairs?" Nangong Xi looked at Zhou Ying.
"Of course I don't know. Later they will announce to the public that the owner of the manor is in seclusion. After a period of time, they will select the next owner of the manor and wait for the next centennial festival." Zhou Ying shook her head.
"You know so much, aren't you afraid that those people will kill you to silence you?" Nangong Xi had an expression that said, "Aren't you afraid?"
"They don't know. When I was baptized last night, they thought I was unconscious. In fact, they didn't know that I have a special physique and those medicines are useless to me. I heard everything they said." Zhou Ying said in a low voice.
Nangong Xi: ...
According to what Zhou Ying said, Venerable Zhou Dan had probably been fed to that thing under the altar.
Zhou Zigui and the others had no idea about this.
Boom!
At this moment, the altar exploded in front of everyone's eyes!
A blood-red monster covered with thorns rose into the sky from the ground.
"What the hell is that?" someone couldn't help but exclaimed.
"What kind of monster is this? I have never heard of it or seen it before."
"Yes, it looks like a vicious beast."
……
People around were talking about it...
When the people in Zhoujiazhuang saw the evil beast rushing out from under the altar, they all turned pale and trembled all over.
Roar……
A loud roar came from the beast's mouth.
The stands around were broken one after another. If not for the strength of everyone present, they would have probably rolled down from the stands.
Everyone looked in horror at the beast that was still roaring wildly.
"What on earth is it? I've never seen it before." Nangong Xi observed the evil beast in front of him.
"Grandpa, big brother, look, that looks like grandpa." At this moment, Zhou Zigui's loud roar was heard.
As Nangong Xi was speaking, the evil beast looked down and saw, as expected, Venerable Zhou Dan lying there, dying.
Unexpectedly, after a night, the evil beast did not eat him.
