Remember [New] in a second! May is the season of spring plowing, and the earth is sprouting vitality. The east of the mountain is barren and fighting, while the west side of the mountain is lush and peaceful. Hundreds of thousands of Mexica farmers are busy in the fields, sowing hope for a year. And tens of thousands of alliance militiamen carried food on their backs, and it was difficult to transfer it to the north and south to supply the army's supplies.

Searching along the grain transportation team, you can see the starting point of the north-south grain road, which is the magnificent capital city in the lake! Hundreds of canoes kept busy, transporting food and military supplies to the shore, and handing them over to the transporting militiamen under the supervision of warriors.

Lake Texcoco is shimmering, like a falling silver mirror, illuminating the prosperity of the world. And at the end of the lake connection, the big market in Beicheng has been strictly controlled! All grain, copperware, and obsidian were confiscated by the alliance, and they were not allowed to flow out during the Eastern Expedition!

Although the battle of the Eastern Expedition seemed to be devastating, it was a real battle for the country. As for Nuo Da's capital in the lake, there are only four thousand royal warriors stationed at this time, focusing on guarding the palace and temple area in the center.

"Believe in my god, Vitzilopochtli! He is supreme and omnipotent! May he bless the kingdom, the Eastern Expedition goes smoothly, and destroy the old enemy of the alliance!"

Entering the palace area, the devout prayers of women can be heard from various noble mansions, accompanied by burning rosin and divine smoke. In this Eastern Expedition, every noble family in the capital sent warriors, and even father and son joined the battle at the same time, which can be described as a big hit in the country!

"Praise the Lord God! God bless the alliance! The priests have been divination for days, and the battle on the front line will be auspicious!"

More than a dozen low-level priests held up the wooden boards and rushed out of the temple area. Their faces were full of joy, and they kept announcing the good news of divination, appeasing the hearts of nobles and commoners.

In the temple area, in front of a gorgeous and vast house, two priests in fine clothes were waiting patiently. One of them is older, with gray eyebrows and hair, and the other is younger, with very handsome eyebrows.

It was already afternoon, and according to the alliance's practice, the distinguished priests and elders had already gone home to rest and were no longer busy. However, the two waited for a long time before a low-level priest came out of the house and responded indifferently.

"Priests from Cholula! Dear descendants, the priests and elders of Ugr don't have time. Go back!"

"Ah?! Why don't you have time!"

The young priest raised his brows and wanted to lean forward to reason. He was the son of a priest elder, and he had never been treated so coldly in the holy city of Cholula.

"boom!"

Several temple warriors guarding the priests and elders' mansion pulled out their battle sticks in unison. Their expressions were cold, and they pointed their sticks at an angle, and they were about to press forward.

"Wei Qi, get back! Wait, don't do anything!"

The elder Priest Quiao frowned, quickly reached out, and dragged the young Vizier Priest back. Then, he reached into his bosom, groped for a while, took out a small turquoise, approached it with small skillful steps, and shook it quickly.

"This priest..."

"Give them all to me..."

The low-level priest Sipilli raised his brows, and before he could speak, his hands became more moist and smooth. He lowered his head for a glance, stopped his words immediately, and quietly put away the top-grade turquoise.

"Lord God! These priests from Cholula are really rich!..."

"Hey, this priest."

The elder Priest Quiao suppressed the irritability in his heart and tried to ask with a smile.

"Elder Priest Ugel, why are you so busy recently? The old man from the holy city of Cholula has come to visit three times, but he can't spare any time?..."

"this..."

Priest Sipilli hesitated, or maybe pretended to be hesitant.

"cough."

Without hesitation, the elder Priest Kui Ao probed again.

"Why!"

Priest Sipilli remained calm, with a smile on his face.

"Elder Cholula, you don't know something. Elder Wugel, he has been very busy recently! Although he is at home now, he has no energy at all to meet you."

"Um..."

Hearing this, the elder Priest Quiao frowned. He reached into his arms again and asked in a low voice.

"I don't know what Elder Ugel is busy with?"

"..."

Hearing this question, Priest Sipilli's expression immediately became serious. His face became stiff, as if caught by a door panel. I saw him waving again and directly commanding the warriors.

"Use the side of the baton Wufeng to drive them away!"

When the incident happened suddenly, the elder Priest Kui Ao was still in place, and he was hit with a baton. His old painful face twitched, and he could barely breathe. This time, it was the priest Wei Qi's turn to rush and drag the elder out. And when they left the gate, the temple warriors guarding the house stopped chasing them away.

Both of them were hit hard a few times, throbbing with pain, while looking at each other in blank dismay.

"Elder Kui Ao, what did you just say? Why did the low-level priest suddenly turn his face?"

Grain extravagance

The young Wei Qi was a little puzzled. He looked at Sipilli who was walking away in a hurry, as if there was wind under his feet, he walked into the courtyard in two steps and disappeared.

"I just asked, what Elder Ugel is doing."

Elder Quiao gritted his teeth, enduring the pain. He thought about it carefully for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out, and he didn't know where he had committed a taboo.

"Elder Kui Ao, the other party doesn't want to meet. Then what should we do? We have been preparing for so long..."

Wei Qi lowered his voice again, a little anxious. The two of them planned for a long time, and with extremely precious fetishes, they prepared a touching speech, but they couldn't even see the face of the person, and they couldn't exert their energy at all!

"...Now, all the important towns in the north and south of the Tlaxcalans have fallen...the holy city of Cholula, but we can't afford it! Or, let's go find the high priest?"

"Huh? Wizzy, you idiot!"

Elder Kui Ao stared wide-eyed, raised his hand and slapped Wei Qi on the face, knocking him into a daze.

"We just don't do anything, and we can't go to the high priest! That's asking for death! We're going to..."

"...Yes, I was stupid!"

Wei Qi pursed his lips and bowed his head respectfully to admit his mistake.

"...So, what shall we do now?"

"what to do..."

Elder Kui Ao gritted his teeth, thought for a while, and finally made a decision.

"Since Ugel's path is not going to work, for the present plan, there is only one person left!"

"Huh? There's one more person."

Wei Qi was a little surprised.

"Elder Quiao, who is he?"

"Hehe, who is he?"

Elder Kui Ao chuckled, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and muttered in a low voice.

"A person who also looks at divine power and wants divine power!..."

In the house of the priests and elders, Sipilly lowered his head and walked forward silently. Along the way are precious flowers, fragrant mahogany, and brick paved sidewalks. The houses on both sides of the road are filled with exquisite stone carvings and jade carvings, as well as shining gold and silverware, which is beyond words.

Sipilli's face remained unchanged, and he was already used to these things. No matter how rich, prosperous and fascinating it is, it is the wealth of a big man, and has nothing to do with a small man like him.

Soon, the little man came to the big man, bowed his head respectfully, and waited with a smile on his face.

"Hey! These days are really tormenting!..."

The chubby Ugel was lying on a cotton blanket, with the priest's robe open, with a frown on his face.

Two beautiful young girls are fanning him slowly with large palm leaves. On the mahogany board to his left, there are exquisite desserts and dried fruits, and in the jade furnace on the right, expensive sacred smoke is burning. After a while, Ugel took a long breath, took a breath of relaxing smoke, and asked casually.

"The two who came from Cholula, are they all sent away?"

"Respected priests and elders, they all left wisely."

Sipilly saluted respectfully. He quietly touched the turquoise in his sleeve, the expression on his face remained unchanged.

"Well, it's good to go, it's good to go! It's this time, I don't have the heart to care about their Cholula's life and death!"

Ugel stretched out his hand ~lightnovelpub.net~ picked up a piece of dried fruit, threw it into his mouth, tasted it, but it was sour and bitter.

"Bah! Bah, bah! Bah, bah!"

Sipilly frowned, and quickly lowered his head. As soon as he saw the expressions of the priests and elders, he knew that anger was just around the corner.

as expected. After a while, Ugel flew into a rage, pointed at the pomace on the ground, and cursed angrily.

"You sour and bitter pomace, you have no taste at all, look at what idiot will eat you!...Huh?"

Ugel was cursing, but suddenly stopped talking. His face suddenly showed joy again, and he couldn't help but squat down, picked up the pomace in his hand, and fondled it.

"No, no! I blamed you wrong! The pomace is good, the pomace is good! No one eats the pomace, there is still time to study!... Haha!"

Hearing these words, Sipiri's eyelids twitched, wishing to plug his ears and become a real deaf person. At this moment, he was extremely pious and prayed loudly in his heart.

"... Fiery sun, may you leave as soon as possible! Immortal sunset, please don't delay any longer! ... God bless you!"
