Chapter 1 The Fall of the Stars(1/2)
Dong!
A heavy drum sound sent away the last trace of bloody sun in the sky. The blue sky became dim as if covered by a huge sky curtain.
Night finally came.
In the middle of a huge square that can accommodate 100,000 people is a magnificent building with 999 steps.
This is the Star Palace!
The Star Hall stands high there, penetrates straight into the sky!
The squares around the Star Hall were densely packed with people kneeling.
According to the grade, from the inside out, the closer the person to the Star Hall, the higher the grade.
At the front entrance of the Star Hall above the 999th stairs, a middle-aged man with a solemn and majestic expression was kneeling, wearing a crown and a yellow robe of rolling dragons.
It was the emperor of the Cangqiong Kingdom, Huangfu Haoran.
On the east side of the temple, a large rusty drum was built.
The young man was wearing plain clothes and stood at the highest point of the entire Star Hall. Under his calm face, there was a bit of nervousness in his pure eyes.
This grand event that once a century-old sacrifice to the Big Dipper Stars in the Cangqin Kingdom was not the first time he was the first to beat the drum. This was the opportunity his father, Xu Ji, the general of the State, took great pains to win him.
The Cangkong Kingdom has sacrificed the Big Dipper once for a hundred years. If all the seven stars are lit up, it means that God will protect the Cangkong Kingdom.
The seven stars should protect the fate of the Cangqiu Kingdom for a century!
Since its founding, Cangkong Kingdom has been in the 1,390th century. This year, today is the 14th sacrifice to the Big Dipper Seven Stars since its founding!
When the seven stars of Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang and Yaoguang all lit up, the Star Palace will ditch the seven Big Dipper stars, producing a large amount of spiritual energy in the world!
As a drum beater, the position you stand can directly accept the cleansing of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the benefits you get are the greatest!
Therefore, the sacrifice of the Big Dipper Seven Stars once a hundred years is almost the dream of all the young men in the Sky Kingdom.
In the past, people standing on this side with more than a thousand years of history and full of mottled rust in front of the old drum like antiques were almost all from the royal family!
Either it is the prince or the prince. It has only been once from ancient times to the present!
This is the second time for the boy!
The young man's father was right next to the emperor, and his tall body still looked extremely tall and straight, like a pine tree.
Although everyone kneeled down with their heads down, the boy still felt keenly that countless people were jealous of him, and he could feel his father's deep love for him.
The boy secretly swore in his heart that he must seize this opportunity to change his physical condition and destiny, so as not to disappoint his parents.
"Star appears!" A great etiquette official from the palace shouted with a clear voice, a solemn expression, and full of energy: "Wow!"
The boy stood in front of a huge drum, waved the drumstick in his hand again, and beat the big drum!
Dong!
The drums are rumbling, heavy and long.
All the imperial civil and military officials, led by Emperor Huangfu Haoran, and the nobles from all directions in the square, faced the Star Hall with pious expressions, bowed down together with the sound of drums.
At this time, in the sky around the Star Hall, hundreds of people sitting cross-legged suddenly appeared in the air, surrounding the Star Hall, and each of them was surging with powerful true energy fluctuations.
With the sound of this drum, hundreds of people sitting cross-legged around the Star Hall, emitting a ray of light at the top of the Star Hall.
Looking closely, there was an extremely small silver star above the spire.
When everyone poured their strength into the little star together, the little star suddenly burst out with a vast and surging force, and shot out a ray of light, which rushed straight into the sky with a bang.
This scene like a miracle can be seen in the entire Sky Kingdom, even the surrounding neighbors.
Countless citizens of the sky fell to the ground with great devotion at this moment, looking at this miracle with great fear.
boom!
With the dazzling light emitted by the small star on the top of the Star Palace, the night sky covered by twilight seemed to be suddenly lit, and a big star in the sky suddenly lit up.
"God blesses the sky, and the sky is bright!" The great etiquette official from the palace has always been very strict. He is a very self-disciplined person, but his voice is a little excited at this moment.
In the air, the people surrounding the Star Hall were constantly pouring into the small star at the top of the Star Hall.
Echoing the first star of the Big Dipper, Tianshu, the light emitted from the small star became more and more dazzling.
Dong!
The boy waved the drumsticks in his hand again and beat the big drum.
"bye!"
The great etiquette official shouted loudly.
Headed by the emperor, everyone bowed and fell down again.
Buzz!
In the twilight, the second star in the sky also lit up!
"Heaven blesses the sky, the sky is bright!"
Dong!
"Heaven blesses the sky, the sky is bright!"
Dong!
"God blesses the sky, and the sky is bright!"
Dong!
"God blesses the sky, Yu Hengliang!"
Dong!
"God blesses the sky, and the sun is bright!"
In a blink of an eye, the night sky that was originally just twilight, six of the seven stars of the Beidou... all lit up, emitting a bright light that was far better than usual.
The six big stars each emitted dazzling light, echoing the light from the Sky Star Hall. An unimaginable huge spiritual energy of heaven and earth instantly filled the entire star hall.
Everyone kneeling in the square looked at this miraculous scene, and all their faces showed ecstasy expressions.
Once a century, they are participants!
Only they can understand this pride.
The boy standing in the best position felt more clearly than others that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was constantly cleaning his body. He finally couldn't help but smile a happy smile on his face.
This young man, who has been weak since childhood, has finally shown a truly happy smile on his face in order not to make his parents worry about him.
The six bright stars in the sky were extremely dazzling. The young man waved the drumsticks in his hand happily and was about to hit the last one.
Seven stars shine, the sky flourishes!
This is something that every Chinese in Cangqiong knows. The young man who has been particularly kind to the sky and stars since he was a child is more aware of this.
Every night when there is no starry night, Xu Luo is the weakest time, so in his heart, even more expecting the Big Dipper to light up than the emperor kneeling there.
The drumstick looks like it is about to touch the drum face.
With this moment, your destiny may really be changed.
Once a hundred years!
Father, I won’t let you down!
The boy had a faint smile on his face.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
The six originally bright stars suddenly dimmed.
The people kneeling in the square suddenly froze their smiles, all of which were stunned.
The hundreds of powerful people hanging around the Star Palace that kept injecting power into it lost all their strength at this moment, falling from the sky towards the square where the crowd was kneeling...
The drumsticks in the boy's hand finally touched the drum face.
Dong...
The drum sounded at this moment.
Emperor Huangfu Haoran, who was kneeling there, suddenly changed his face at this moment.
The words that the great etiquette official, who was full of joy, almost blurted out, stuck in his throat, his smile froze on his face, and he was stupid.
At this moment, the last moment, the Shaking Light Star suddenly flashed, and the light emitted was like the scorching sun, illuminating the entire night sky, making this moment like daytime!
Immediately afterwards, the light gradually faded, as if at that moment, it was just a illusion of people.
The seven dim stars appeared at the same time, and they... fell downwards in one go.
Oh my God!
Countless people in the sky who were originally kneeling on the ground were stunned and stunned, with deep fear in their eyes.
"The stars have fallen!" I don't know who it was, but my voice trembled and suddenly, the entire Sky Kingdom fell into panic.
To be continued...
