Chapter 299 Beichen City, observing the Sheji Sacrifice Ceremony
Spring is coming back to the earth, the spring breeze blows across the land of Tianxia, ​​and the flowers are blooming all the way.

Two crane spirits flew high in the sky. Shen Guanye and Byron took one of the crane spirits and rushed to Beichen City.

Now Byron has almost become Shen Guanye's exclusive bodyguard.

He himself has extraordinary combat power, and he has two 14th-level heroic spirits at his disposal. Even ordinary 13th-level heroes may not be his opponents. Not many people in the world enjoy such treatment when such a person serves as a bodyguard.

Helian Yongchang is considered to be a high-ranking and powerful person, right?

In terms of power, he is even the second person in Tianxia today. No one can surpass him except Zeng Mingwu.

But Helian Yongchang's bodyguards were just Li Taizhang and Xu Yansong. Sometimes it was Li Taizhang, and sometimes it was Xu Yansong. The two 13th-level masters took turns.

As for the No. [-] Ghost King, although he was nominally a subordinate of Helian Yongchang, he was actually more like Helian Yongchang's partner and friend.

Because when you reach the town-state level, no one is qualified to give you allegiance.

Byron accompanies Shen Guanye on the trip. Firstly, he can act as his bodyguard, so that the people in the territory can feel more at ease. Secondly, he does not need to interrupt the "treatment course".

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

The north is still experiencing a cold spring, but Beichen City, located in the middle of Tianxia, ​​already has the atmosphere of spring.

Shen Guanye and Byron stayed at the Manor of Diaolong Gong. He was invited by Diaolonggong personally, otherwise it would be really troublesome to participate in the Sheji sacrifice.

Although he is now nominally a member of the central government, and holds a high and powerful position as a frontier official, his title is "military officer", and worshiping mountains and rivers is a matter for "civilian officials".

Didn’t you see that none of the warlord leaders from all over the country came?

Of course, with Shen Guanye's status, even without an invitation from Lord Diaolong, if he insists on coming, the central government will definitely invite him.

Speaking of which, he was not thinking carefully about this matter and did not think of it in advance.

There was a precedent for Shang Kui being promoted for observing the "Fish and Dragon Dance" celebration in Hongdong County, but he did not expect that observing the Sheji Sacrifice might also allow him to successfully enshrine the Sheji Jade Pillar, and he would have to be reminded by the Dragon Carver. No small oversight.

Although, it is still unknown whether it can succeed.

But Shen Guanye felt that the possibility of success was still very high. The Jade Pillar of Sheji had already responded to the imperial seal, but certain conditions were missing. It was very likely that the Sacrifice of Sheji was this condition.

Therefore, after receiving the secret letter from Duke Diaolong, he immediately dropped everything he was doing and rushed over without stopping.

……

Sacrifice to Sheji, also known as "Sacrifice to Sheji", is a sacrificial ceremony that has been passed down from ancient times to the present. It has almost run through the entire history of Tianxia and has extraordinary significance and a pivotal position in Tianxia.

People eat for food.

In any era, agriculture is an extremely important and serious matter - isn't Shen Guanye himself worried about food?
Therefore, rulers must care enough about agriculture, even if they are pretending to care, it is necessary!

This also created the extremely important status of Sheji sacrifice.

Because worshiping Sheji is worshiping the God of land and the God of grain.

"She" means "Taishe", which is the god of the earth; "Ji" means "Taiji", which is the god of grains and agriculture.

Together, they are the gods of the earth and grains. The purpose of worshiping Sheji is to pray for good weather and abundant grains.In ancient times, emperors usually held sacrifices in person in the spring to pray for a good harvest, and in autumn they would hold another sacrifice to express gratitude.

Now that the emperor is gone, it is naturally impossible for the emperor to still preside over sacrifices. The task falls on the head of state.

……

"Captain Shen, it's our first time meeting you. Nice to meet you."

In the viewing position, someone saw Shen Guanye standing next to Lord Diaolong. They were surprised at first, and then came up to say hello warmly.

Although Duke Diaolong has now retired, he still has a huge influence. His own strength as a country-level powerhouse determines that it is impossible for him to leave the country.

However, Diaolong Pingping lives in seclusion and keeps a low profile. He does not show up at public events like the Sheji Sacrifice.

Now that he appeared at the ceremony and stood with Shen Guanye, his intention to publicly support Shen Guanye was obvious.

Moreover, even leaving aside the influence of Lord Diaolong, Shen Guanye himself is worth making friends with.

As a rising star in the world, he is not only powerful and has unlimited potential, but he also leads an army and is protected by a golden body. His political future is obviously bright.

If you don’t make an effort to make friends with such people, then who will you make friends with?
Therefore, even though all the people present were prominent people, there was an endless stream of people who came to talk to Shen Guanye.

Shen Guanye was communicating with Chu Yingyu in a low voice. Ever since he was in danger in Donghai City, especially after he realized that the young master Hildewin probably did not involve Chu Yingyu out of accident, Duke Diaolong would My precious daughter transferred back to the university in Beichen City from Donghai University.

Chu Yingyu had no objection to this. Originally, she would go to Tunghai University just because of the "modern" mentality of a young girl.

Now that I have been studying in Donghai for two years, I have seen "modernity". After all, Donghai City is indeed the most "modern" city today, but I have also seen a lot of other "things" and have long since lost its charm.

Shen Guanye politely exchanged a few words with the visitor, and then the man returned to his seat knowingly.

Because the conversation was interrupted and the conversation was not important, Shen Guanye did not continue the conversation with Chu Yingyu after the visitor left, but instead focused on the sacrificial ceremony.

The people participating in the ceremony, regardless of their status, were all uniformly dressed and arranged in a neat square formation. No matter how high their status was, their expressions were solemn and solemn. No one made a loud noise, and no one ran around. Even if they talked, they were only nearby. Converse quietly.

Of course, it was the heroic spirits that made the atmosphere more solemn. The entire ceremony was like a large-scale exhibition of Tianxia’s heroic spirits.

Modao armored warriors, Beiwei armored warriors, Xuanjia cavalry...

All the heroic spirits of the Celestial Dynasty appeared on the grand ceremony, forming a formation from the outside to the inside.

At this moment, history seems to have converged. All the famous and powerful armies in history have appeared here, forming a queue, reflecting each other from a distance, solemnly and solemnly.

In the center of the formation, there are two generals of Tiance!
Two Tiance generals, one on the left and one on the right, rode dragons to guard in front of the altar.

This is a huge Sheji altar with five squares of earth, namely green earth in the east, red earth in the south, white earth in the west, black earth in the north and loess in the center.

In the center of the altar is the Sheji Jade Pillar. This altar was built by the previous dynasty and was inherited by the central government. Its Sheji Jade Pillar is not the same as the one Shen Guanye placed in the Kingdom of God.

In addition to nearly the entire series of Celestial-type heroic spirits, there are also numerous mountain-sea-type heroic spirits at the ceremony.

The festival was about to begin, and Shen Guanye couldn't help but look forward to it.
