054-Sacrifice to the sky
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
More than a dozen bonfires were lit in the valley, and the prey caught in the past ten days, at this time, was pulled out a wild boar, two antelopes and more than a dozen hares, and they were disposed of on the spot, using the circlip knife of the thief.
The person in charge of handling these animals is the thin elder, don't look at him like a bamboo pole, that strength is really great.
After a few slashes, there were only a few legged prey left on the ground.
When everyone praised the thin elder for his quick movements and precise timing, the slender elder, who had always been above the top, was surprisingly modest and polite, and waved his hand: "Wherever there is, it is the sharp weapons of the warriors." ”
In a battle with the Montenegrin tribe, the circlip knife is as famous as the thief.
More than an hour had passed until the battle had ended, and the tribesmen were still excited to recall the appearance of the thief holding an iron spear and killing among the cannibals of Montenegro.
Cleanly unraveling the prey, the thin elder came to the thief with the heart of the wild boar in his hand, and knelt down on one knee in front of everyone: "Warrior, please accept!"
The thief was stunned when he saw this, he never thought that the thin elder would kneel down for him in front of everyone, so panicked that he hurriedly stood up and excused himself: "I can't help it, I can't help it, you are an elder." ”
The thin elder shook his head, raised his head and smiled: "Although I am an elder, but you, a warrior, today is the most dazzling warrior, the heart of this wild boar, you are qualified to enjoy it, a warrior." ”
The old patriarch and the people sitting around laughed good-naturedly.
Even Xue Aliang and Ah Niu, who were the most seriously injured and had to lie down, all laughed and coaxed one after another.
"Actually, I'm not the biggest person I am today. ”
Ji Thief's words made everyone stunned.
The old patriarch was even more puzzled and asked, "Warrior, why do you say that?"
The witch just thought that the thief was polite, so she waved her hand and said, "Warrior, you are too modest. ”
Ji Thief shook his head: "No, I'm not modest, the biggest one today is the seven of our comrades who died in battle." ”
Ji Thief's words made everyone bow their heads, to say that everyone is not sad, it is impossible, the Frost Valley tribe is such a big family, and it is uncomfortable to lose anyone.
But this sadness only lasted for a while, in their estimation, this war with the Black Mountain tribe, even if it was by luck with the help of spear throwers and flying stone ropes, the companions who died in the battle should be at least more than half, but because of the birth of the thief, only seven clansmen were killed in the battle, in a sense, it was too late for them to be happy.
Thinking like this, many clansmen opened their mouths to persuade Ji Thief: "Lord Warrior, that's not what I said, if it weren't for you, we don't know how many clansmen we would lose this time, so this is the biggest one, or you." ”
Ji Thief shook his head, took a deep breath, and continued, "No, there are more credits than me. ”
When everyone heard this, they were all confused: "Who is more than the merit of the warrior?"
Ji Thief looked at the old patriarch with a smile and said, "Of course it's the patriarch, if it weren't for the patriarch agreeing to start a war with the Black Mountain tribe, we wouldn't have won't win, so the heart of this wild boar should be enjoyed by the patriarch." ”
The old patriarch was very impressed by the thief's words, and he laughed and waved his hand: "Eh, warrior, you are too modest, how can I be the one who has the greatest credit? Although it was I who decided to go to war, but without you, we would not have been able to win, so it is you who have the greatest credit." ”
Everyone said, "Yes, Lord Warrior, don't push it." ”
Ji Thief shook his head again: "Even so, I don't have the most credit." ”
The crowd didn't understand.
Ji Thief smiled and spread his hand: "The greatest credit, of course, is everyone, if there is no cooperation from everyone, without everyone's hard work to collect wood and stones, I can't make spear throwers and flying stone ropes, let alone make wooden doors to resist the Black Mountain tribe, so everyone is the most credit." ”
When these words came out, everyone's expressions couldn't help but show excitement, and one counted one, and they all stood up and cheered the word warrior.
The old patriarch stood up and laughed: "That's right, the credit belongs to everyone, and the heart of this prey should be eaten by everyone." ”
As soon as the words fell, the thin elder took charge of the knife and divided the wild boar heart and the antelope heart into nearly 100 parts, although everyone only got a small piece in their hands, but even so, the big guy's face still showed a happy smile.
For a while, the campfire in the valley was full of laughter.
The wild boar was divided into 100 portions with the antelope and the rabbit, and each person received a sufficient amount of meat in his hands.
And the pig bones and sheep bones, the thief did not throw away, he asked the thin elder to break these bones into a suitable length, throw them into a clay pot, add water, and cook a large bone broth in a clay pot in front of everyone.
At this time, everyone's faces were filled with laughter.
The old patriarch and the witch came to sit down beside the thief, and the old patriarch said: "Warrior, this time we defeated the Black Mountain tribe, thanks to you, you are the savior of our Frost Valley tribe, I discussed with the wizard, I want you to be a wizard, what do you think?"
Ji Thief was stunned: "I'm a wizard?"
The eyes of the snow sitting next to the thief lit up, the warrior is going to be a wizard?
For a while, the little girl hurriedly listened attentively.
See, the witch nodded on the side and said: "Yes, I will, you will, I won't, you will, you are more suitable to be a wizard than me, and my illness is only after becoming a wizard, I think, if I don't become a wizard, my body should be fine." ”
He hurriedly shook his head: "No, patriarch, wizard, you two spare me, how can I have the ability to be a wizard." I'm used to being lazy, let me be a wizard, you might as well kill me, I'm just like that, it's good. ”
The old patriarch and the witch looked embarrassed, this warrior didn't want to be a wizard at all, what could he do.
Seeing their expressions, Ji Thief's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly pulled away from the topic, and said, "By the way, patriarch, you said that the Black Mountain tribe remembered me, I remember, when the Black Mountain tribe was defeated, didn't you capture twenty or thirty of their people? Where are they now?"
The old patriarch was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "I said that I would sacrifice them all to the sky in a while, but if you can't wait, warriors, you can pull them out to worship the sky now, by the way, that black bear, we have also caught it." ”
The thief was overjoyed when he heard this: "What, did you really catch a black bear?"
The old patriarch nodded: "Of course, when the clansmen caught him, this guy was already seriously injured and couldn't walk." ”
When the thief heard this, he became more and more happy: "Bring them to me quickly." ”
The old patriarch snorted, and called the fat elder in the air, asking him to bring the captives of the Black Mountain tribe.
The fat elder ordered twenty sturdy clansmen, took their weapons, and after a while, brought over twenty-seven black mountain cannibals who were bound by vines, and with despair on their faces, and hung their heads, among these black mountain cannibals, the black bears who were seriously injured and whose blood was still flowing were at the front.
led the people to the middle of the campfire field, surrounded by circles of clansmen.
At this time, seeing these defeated soldiers of Montenegro, the emotions of everyone in the Frost Valley tribe were ignited at once.
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
Hearing the shouts of everyone, Rao is the fierce Black Mountain cannibals who have always served as hunters, also showed horror on their faces.
In this primitive society, there is a war between two tribes, as long as they are caught by each other, only one will die, but, unlike other tribes, only the Black Mountain tribe will eat the captives.
Besides, the hatred between the Black Mountain tribe and the Frost Valley tribe is a blood feud between countless relatives who are used as food, and these Black Mountain cannibals don't even realize that they have the possibility of survival.
Especially the black bear, with his noble status, he will be 100% killed by chiseling, thinking of this, the black bear's pale face because of excessive blood loss is even paler, after all, his hands are covered with blood, and he is also afraid of death.
Listening to the roar of the clansmen, the old patriarch looked at these Black Mountain cannibals and almost gritted his teeth.
He waved his hand: "Kill these bastards, that black bear, and chisel the top to sacrifice to the sky." ”
As soon as these words came out, many Black Mountain cannibals were stupid, and they sat on the ground without the slightest resistance.
The blood feud between the two tribes caused many of them to stand up and demand this place for the execution of their enemies.
When the ready killer raised his weapon and was about to fall, a voice suddenly sounded in the pile of people in front of the campfire.
"Wait!"
