El séptimo edificio o cu se llamaba Tlalxicco. En este cu mataban cada año un captivo a honra del dios del Infierno. Matábanle en el mes que se llamaba títitl. Después que le había muerto el sátrapa que llamaban Tlillan tlenamácac ponía fuego y incensaba delante la estatua. Y esto se hacía de noche.
\nEl octavo edificio se llamaba Cuauhxicalco. Era un oratorio donde el señor se recogía a hacer penitencia y ayunar cuando se hacía un ayuno que se llamaba netonatiuhzahualo. Ayunaban cuatro días por honra del Sol. Este ayuno se hacía de doscientos en doscientos y tres días. Y aquí mataban cuatro captivos que se llamaban chachanme, y otros dos captivos que llamaban la imagen del Sol y de la Luna, con otros muchos captivos a la postre de todos.
\nEl nono edificio se llamaba Tochinco. Era un cu baxo, el cual era cuadrado, que tenía gradas por todas cuatro partes. En éste mataban cada año la imagen de Umetochtli cuando reinaba este signo. Era esta imagen un captivo compuesto con los ornamentos del dios del vino, que se llamaba Umetochtli.
\nEl décimo edificio se llamaba Teutlalpan, que quiere decir "tierra fragosa". Era un bosquecillo cercado de cuatro paredes, como un corral, en el cual estaban riscos hechos a mano, y en ellos plantados arbustos que se hacen en tierra fragosa, como son magueyes pequeñuelos y otros que se llaman_ tzihuactli_. En este bosquecito hacían procesión cada año, en el mes llamado quecholli, y hecha la procesión luego
