Chapter 2137: Sacrifice of Boys and Girls
"Nearly ten years ago, did a strange little boy appear in the imperial city of Loujin?" Shi Xiyue asked.
"I don't know." Lin Hazhen shook his head. He really didn't know.
As the Khan of Loujin, he was very busy every day with all kinds of affairs. He had no time to care about a strange little boy.
Even if there really was, he wouldn't be able to remember it.
"Think about it carefully. If you didn't see it, do you think anything special happened ten years ago?" Shi Xiyue asked again.
Lin Hazhen thought about it again and again, but still couldn't think of anything suspicious or special.
"The internal affairs of the imperial city have always been handled by Duomurji. Maybe she knows something." Lin Hazhen pointed to his wife who was still sleeping beside him.
Shi Xiyue took out the silver needles she brought with her and began to treat Duomurji.
Domurji's health had not been good for many years. This time she was tortured by the wizards. Even after waking up, she looked extremely weak.
"How do you feel, madam?" Shi Xiyue asked as she removed the silver needle from Duomurji's body.
"You..." Duo Muerji looked into Shi Xiyue's eyes.
"She is not a bad person, don't be afraid." Lin Hazhen next to him comforted his wife and asked Duo Muerji the question that Shi Xiyue had asked him just now.
"Ten years ago? A strange little boy?" Domurji murmured. "I didn't see any little boy, but I vaguely remember one thing."
"What's the matter?" Shi Xiyue asked anxiously.
"One year, a witch said that Loujin had been suffering from drought for a long time, which was an offense to the gods. For this reason, she said she wanted to gather boys and girls to pray for Loujin.
Not long after, a group of children around eight or nine years old brought Lou Jin from other places.
I felt sorry for the children, as they were too young. The wizard told them to kneel down on the altar for sacrifice, but I couldn't bear to watch and let the wizard handle it himself.
Since then, I have not asked about the whereabouts of those children, or whether they are alive or dead. "
Shi Xiyue became nervous because of Duo Muerji's words.
The wizard is Nuchen, who is in the same group as Nucen. Among that group of children, there must be Amu.
"Apart from the wizard who handled that matter, do you remember who else you arranged? Or is there anyone else who knows?" Shi Xiyue thought for a while before asking Duo Muerji.
"It's been so long, I don't remember it." Domurji explained. "If it weren't for the drought in Loujin that year, and the wizard brought so many children, I probably wouldn't remember it either."
Yixue said that her son is exactly ten years old this year, which is exactly the same as the boys and girls that Nuchen had gathered.
"What happened?" Lin Hataimu was getting a little anxious while waiting outside. He was afraid that if he delayed too long, it would arouse the suspicion of the wizards, so he couldn't help but come in to ask.
"Madam, please think more about this matter, because among those children, there is one who is very important to me." Shi Xiyue said to Duo Muerji.
"Okay." Duo Muerji nodded in agreement.
"I don't have any medicine to treat the poison in their bodies, so I can only use silver needles to seal their acupuncture points temporarily. I will gather the necessary medicine within two days, and then I will come here again." While explaining to Lin Hataimu, Shi Xiyue also reminded Lin Hazhen and his wife. "You still have to pretend to be unconscious like before. The situation outside is turbulent now. You must not let the wizard and Chi Minglie know that you have woken up."
Just as Shi Xiyue finished speaking, there was an unusual movement outside the big tent. She and Lin Hataimu looked at each other.
