Chapter 210 High Priest
In the magnificent giant palace, the pillars supporting the palace are 40 meters high. Each pillar needs ten people to hold hands to surround it. People stand below and look up at the huge totem carvings on the top, which will feel extremely small.
In a spacious room in the palace, there is a huge lotus-shaped bath. The design of the whole bath is extremely unique, which cleverly attracts hot springs. There is a drainage device at the bottom of the pool, and there is a continuous stream of water intake and outlet water, so that the bath keeps the living water clean all year round.
Next to the bath is a totem sculpture made of gold. At this time, a man with a leather whip came in with a group of dark-skinned women. They were mostly middle-aged and elderly women with a sad expression on their faces, and their rough hands showed that they were rough slaves.
This is a slave country. Not only will prisoners become slaves, but low-level civilians may also become slaves. The people served in this high priest's palace are all the wives of soldiers after the war. It is said that they dedicate themselves to the gods, and the priests imprison their thoughts with the protection of gods. Let them become slaves willingly.
However, lies are lies after all. The gods have never sheltered these suffering women. Everyone has had the tragic experience of their husband's death. They gradually understand that they increasingly want to escape from here and find the children who have been forcibly dragged to be soldiers.
Some people keep trying to escape, which has aggravated the care and punishment of the high priest. Recently, more than a dozen women who are handymen have been thrown into the sacrificial tower to feed the gods. The rest of the people live tremblingly every day for fear of being careless, and being caught and thrown in from the terrible hole at the top of the tower.
Under the command of the foreman with a whip, some women began to scrub the golden sculpture, and the rest of them knelt on the ground and wiped the ground with a wet veil.
The high priest and her love to be clean, and the place she walks through must be spotless, otherwise she will be furious. When she loses her temper, she always kills people, so every woman who works is struggling to wipe it.
Among these handymen, there is a slightly younger woman with dark skin, thick-lined face and an ordinary appearance. She is Karu's mother.
She was trying to wipe it. Suddenly, an older woman behind her pulled her hand in panic and motioned her to look under her body. At this look, her whole body trembled, and there was a pool of blood under the ground. The blood flowed down her own legs, and it was her period at this time.
Youjia people are located in the tropics and wear very little clothes. Both men and women just wear a piece of cloth around their waist, so there is no way to hide it. She was stunned there.
The woman next to her kindly reminded her to quickly wipe the ground and motioned her to wipe the blood off her legs. At this time, the high priest came in, and the handymen knelt down one after another.
Kalu's mother also quickly hid in the crowd and knelt down, her whole body trembled slightly, and her heart was very nervous, because the high priest's nose was unusually sensitive, and a pair of cold eyes seemed to have the ability to understand everything.
Sure enough, the high priest has smelled a faint smell of blood in the air. She went to Karu's mother, motioned others to retreat, raised her hand and ordered her to stand up.
"Stand up!" The foreman's whip hit Karu's mother, and a deep blood stain immediately appeared, and she had to stand up tremblingly.
The high priest frowned and saw the blood flowing down her feet and was immediately furious. She thought it was an extreme blasphemy against herself. How could a woman during the unclean body enter her clean bathroom with dirty blood and immediately waved her hand to drag the woman away.
The foreman called two soldiers and dragged the woman who was struggling and crying away. Then the high priest waved his hand and let everyone in it go out to wait.
When everyone went out, she began to remove the veil on her head. If anyone sees her face, they will be shocked. Half of her face is extremely beautiful, while the other half of her face is muscle atrophy, her skin and flesh are turned out, and ferocious like a devil.
She sighed and took off her black robe, wheat-colored skin, plump and strong chest, and a snake-like waist, which was sexy and enchanting.
Gently submerged into the water, and under the touch of the warm water, she felt that her cold and irritable temperament could calm down. She suddenly rushed out of the water, wiped the water off her face, and quietly soaked in the water.
The past is vivid. She used to be a beautiful girl who was loved by everyone. She came from a noble family and lived a carefree life. But suddenly one day, my life trajectory was completely changed because of the prophecy of the old priest.
When the most virtuous and prestigious high priest of the country predicted that she could become a high priest when she was dying. Fanatic believers, including their parents, immediately took her to this throne.
But as a high priest, you must learn to summon gods, that is, you must enter the sacrificial tower alone and communicate with the gods in the tower. Of course, this is extremely dangerous.
When she went in and saw the gods inside, she was almost scared to death. Fortunately, the survival instinct supported her and tamed it with the method that the old priest told her before he died to subdue the gods, and then she barely survived.
But half of her face was ruined, so she could only wear a veil and a black robe for many years. Perhaps it was such destruction that made her heart distorted and her personality extremely cold and cruel.
