Aztec Eternals

v2 Chapter 940: Mayans saw the light

The latest website: There is silver moonlight floating on the sea, and there are gray and black mountains looming on the coast. In the bay between the sea and the sacred mountain, there is a stone water village, low, old and desolate.

In fact, this is also one of the ancient relics of the Olmecs. Like the two ancient statues at the crater of Shenshan, they were built at the end of the Warring States Period, more than a thousand years ago. The original purpose of this water village was a sacrificial place under the sacred mountain, enshrining the "Mother of the Sea" revered by the seashore, and also one of the gods of the Mexica Plateau, Cihuatéotl .

"Blessed by the sun and feathered snakes! This raid on the Mexica, we have achieved a rare victory!"

Feathered Serpent Priest Papp announced loudly to the welcoming temple priests and warriors with a smile on his face. Afterwards, he arranged for everyone in the fleet to rest, and also arranged for craftsmen and manpower to repair the ship. It wasn't until everything was done and the moon rose into the sky that the senior priest of the Feathered Serpent, the head of the navy of the holy city, walked silently into the depths of the water village sacrificial hall under the guard of the headman Chu Chute.

"Chuchute, you take a few warriors from the tribes and guard outside carefully!"

"Yes! Lord Priest Papp!"

Chu Chute, the head of the Snake Lake tribe, bowed his head respectfully, like Papp's personal bodyguard. With the re-emergence of Priest Papu, his status has also risen, and even the resettled clansmen have been guaranteed. And the two fled thousands of miles together, and after experiencing so many lives and deaths, the level of trust in each other has surpassed the beliefs of the sun and the feathered snake, and they can find a way out together!

"Very good! Chuchute, I will take you, just like the previous escape...to find a way out!..."

Priest Pap's eyes flickered, and he made a slight suggestion. Head Chu Chute lowered his eyes and nodded solemnly. The two understood each other and passed each other shoulder to shoulder. Afterwards, the cold ancient sacrificial place, as well as the sacrificial dungeon under the sacrificial place, along with the serpentine carvings extending all the way, gradually appeared in front of Priest Papu.

"Open the stone gate!"

"Yes! My lord priest!"

At the end of the underground of the sacrificial place is an ancient and gloomy stone prison, which is used to hold the sacrificial offerings. I don't know how many souls have been buried there. And the deepest stone prison is also the widest, used to hold the most noble sacrifices of the descendants of the gods.

These stone prisons have no door locks, only heavy stone doors here and there. And with the weight of the stone gate, it is absolutely impossible for one person to push it open. Therefore, the method of detaining the sacrificial offering is very simple and simple, tie a rope and throw it into the stone prison. Open the stone gate once a day, send some meals, and close it again.

"Boom..."

The four garrisoned warriors worked together to push the heavy stone door open. The light from the torch reflected into the stone prison, illuminating a figure crouched in a corner.

"Well...you wait outside!"

"Yes! My lord priest!"

Priest Pap sniffed his nose, raised his brows, and then held the torch and walked into the cold underground prison. Soon, he covered his nose and walked to the figure in the corner. The other party covered his eyes, struggling to adapt to the sudden light, and let out a low moan.

"Snake God!...I finally...see the light again!..."

Mayan businessman Tikalo covered his eyes, and after a while of adaptation, he opened them with tears. Under the torch of Priest Papu, his face was weak and pale, and his figure was so emaciated that he almost lost his appearance. However, he opened his eyes with difficulty, recognized the person in front of him, and with a sincere smile on his lips, he greeted him in Totona Kenahua.

"Pap...priest...my lord! We meet again!..."

Priest Papu held a torch and looked down at Tikalo in the corner. His eyes flickered, and then he said calmly.

"Maya, I remember you said before... Do you know His Majesty the Death God of the Mexica?"

"Yes! Dear Priest Papu...His Highness Xiulot and I are old acquaintances...In front of His Highness, I can also say something..."

"Witness of the gods! You are a Mayan businessman, how do you know His Highness the Death God?"

"Hmm... His Highness Xiulot's Gyeonggi Army Commander, Olosh... owed me a lot of tobacco money, and he is also an old friend of mine!... He used to be His Highness's martial arts teacher, and took His Highness to my shop... Later, I also searched for copper materials for His Royal Highness, and transported them from the Wetamo Mountains to the Alliance... After that, I went to sea for His Highness, to the Cuban Snake Island in the east, until I encountered a surprise attack by a fleet... My lord priest, I will explain everything Go through it again!..."

"I know. But this time, you have to swear with the gods and ancestors!"

"Witness of the Lord God! Ancestors..."

"No! Use the Mayan serpent god."

". The Heavenly Snake God's testimony! The ancestors' testimony! What I said before is the truth! If there is even a trace of falsehood, let me..."

"Your family is extinct."

Priest Papp's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice.

"Don't use yourself. Swear by your family!"

"."

The Mayan businessman Tikalo remained silent, looking at Priest Papu's serious eyes. After a long while, he nodded his head imperceptibly.

"The Heavenly Snake God and the ancestors witness! At this moment, if I have a lie, let... my family be extinct!..."

"Ah, very good!"

Priest Pap narrowed his eyes, looked carefully at Tikalo, the Mayan merchant, and then smiled, guiding like a priest.

"Blessed by the sun and feathered snake! As long as you have sincere faith and follow the priest's guidance... your family will continue like a root system, with a future rooted in a high place!"

"A future rooted in...high places?..."

Hearing this, the Mayan merchant Tikalo blinked, and the weak smile on his face spread like ripples. He licked his dry lips, looked at Priest Papp who was suddenly silent, and tentatively said with a smile.

"My lord priest, is there any water? I'm so thirsty...can you give me some water?"

Priest Papu pondered for a moment, then waved to the guards behind him. Soon, the sweet well water flowed into the Mayan businessman's throat with a "gurgling" sound, making him feel comfortable all over.

"Hmm... Lord God bless you!"

The Mayan businessman Tikalo shook his skin, licked the last drop of water, and prayed to the main **** again. Then, he glanced at Priest Pap's silent reaction, his eyes flashed, and he said with a smile.

"Dear Priest Papu... Is there anything to eat? A meal of rotten pumpkin a day is really frustrating... Can you let me have a bite of corn pancake? Just one bite..."

Hearing this, Priest Papp raised his eyebrows. He took a deep look at Tikalo, and then gave instructions to the guards behind him.

"Give him some tortillas!"

"Etc., etc!…"

The Mayan merchant Tikalo stretched out his hand weakly, but his face was full of a sly smile like a fox.

"Dear Priest Papu! This stone prison has not been cleaned for a long time... It's really a little bit, not suitable for eating... Can I change it to a clean cell, preferably with light..."

"Change to another cell? The one with light?..."

Priest Pap frowned, but calmed down after a few breaths. He turned his head again and gave orders to the guards stationed in the stone prison.

"Change him to a room with ventilation holes. From now on, give him two meals a day and take care of his hygiene! Well, it will be according to the status of a sacrificial descendant of the gods!..."

"Yes! Lord Priest Pap!..."

Soon, the two changed to a clean and airy stone house, and Tikalo also ate warm tortillas. Almost like a greedy and weak old fox, he finished licking the last crumbs, and then sighed in satisfaction.

"Lord God! I never knew... a simple cornbread can be so delicious!..."

"Simple tortillas? Huh!"

Hearing this, Priest Pap sneered, shook his head and said.

"The Mayans! Did you know? Most of the thousands of tribal warriors outside can't even eat this piece of corn cake!..."

"oh?"

Mayan merchant Tikalo's eyes flickered, savoring this sentence. After a while, he asked cautiously.

"Dear Priest Papu...I have one last request!...As a sacrifice for your captives, I want to go to the sacred sacrificial lake and take a bath..."

This time, Priest Papu's silence was longer than before. Dialogue between smart people does not require too many words, UU Reading www.uukanshu. com does not need to be stated. He lowered his eyes silently, and after a while, he opened his mouth in a low voice.

"Not now! The sacrifice to the lake has stopped. And you are not qualified as a sacrifice!..."

"However... in the future... you may still have a chance!"

"Bless the gods! Bless the gods!"

After leaving these few words, Priest Pap turned around and left holding a torch. Behind him, the heavy stone door "bang" and was closed by four people again. And Tikalo in the stone room raised his head, and saw a little light far above his head through the simple and simple holes for ventilation. Those quaint little holes are like the eyes of gods, looking at him calmly, but with starlight in their eyes.

"I see…"

"Has the kingdom already reached Jihu City? Blessed by the gods?..."

"Snake God!...I finally...see the light again!..."
