The high priest sighed, and it seemed to evoke countless memories.

Sacrifice is a part of the Chinese rituals, is the main part of the Confucian rituals, the rites have five classics, no more important than the sacrifice, is to serve the gods to bless.

The objects of worship are divided into three categories: gods, earthly gods, and human ghosts. The gods are worshipped, the earth is only sacrificed, and the temple is enjoyed.

The concept of sacrifice records the Confucianism "Zhou Li", "Book of Rites" and "Book of Rites, Justice", "University Yanyi Supplement" and other books to explain.

"Sacrifice" also means to worship the gods, pray to the gods, and worship ancestors.

In primitive times, it was believed that the human soul could exist without the body. The sacrificial handle is a derivative of this idea of the soul.

The first rituals were simpler and more barbaric. Statues of gods and goddesses were made of bamboo, wood or clay, or images of gods such as the sun, moon, stars, and beasts were painted on rocks as objects of worship, and food and other gifts offered to the gods were displayed in front of the idols.

As a Miao people, sacrifice is one of the oldest traditions of the Miao people.

The Miao people believe that there are gods in this world, and as long as they sacrifice wholeheartedly, they will be blessed by the gods!

Therefore, the sacrifice is something that the Miao people have to carry out every year, and it is also one of the most necessary things.

At the beginning, when the Miao people sacrificed, it was similar to the general sacrifice, offering statues to gods, placing pigs, cattle and sheep, etc., plus various vegetarian foods and fruits, you can complete a sacrifice.

After all, the people of Miao Village have always been relatively simple, and they don't like too extravagant and wasteful things.

When the Miao people sacrifice, it is more about the mood, the faith, and the realm of spirit and soul.

This tradition has not been passed down for many years, but it has been changed in the last hundred years.

About seventy or eighty years ago, when Miao Zhai was still presided over by the previous high priest, he suddenly received the will of the gods.

It was the questioning of the real gods, and for the rest of the night, everyone seemed to have a dream, and they all heard a voice in the dream.

This voice is the voice of the gods, he said, as long as Miao Zhai can provide enough treasures to be sacrificed to him at a fixed time every year, he can be blessed by the gods!

You must know that for the Miao people who believe in the gods of this world, such a divine will is tantamount to the deepest belief in the soul.

Every Miao villager was extremely excited the next day, and they all felt that they were blessed by the gods.

As for the heavenly and earthly treasures needed for sacrifices, the 100,000 mountains at that time, although not every inch of land had good things, but it was almost the same.

There are so many good things that almost no one in Miao Village cares much.

At that time, Miao Village didn't need to go out to find it, and there were nearly seven or eight hundred kinds of treasures in the collection!

This is simply unthinkable for the current ancient martial artists.

Seven or eight hundred kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures, what kind of concept is this, many super masters may not have seen so many good things in their lives.

No way, as the indigenous people of the 100,000 Mountains, I don't know how long they have lived in the 100,000 Mountains, their collections are too much.

And for outsiders, what is valuable is really worthless for people in Miao Village.

No way, at this time, the Miao Zhai people still belong to a relatively primitive way of life, and rarely communicate with the outside, there is no treasure mountain without knowing it, life is still very hard, generally rely on hunting and planting grain for a living!

Since there are many things used for sacrifices, and you can also be blessed by the gods, why not do it!

If this brings a good life to the people of Miao Village, it will be even better!

Everybody wants to see miracles happen.

Soon, the first small sacrifice to the gods was completed.

After the completion of the sacrifice to the gods, the next day, the people of Miao Village felt it

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) I feel the change, especially when it is reflected in hunting, many dangerous animals, it is difficult to bring any harm to the people in the village.

Many dangerous situations can be inexplicably resolved.

As a result, the theory of the manifestation of the gods appeared, and many people thought that this was the blessing of the gods!

Everyone has rumored that it is because of the sacrifice of the gods, so everyone has been protected, so that everyone not only does not have a trace of antipathy to the sacrifice of the gods, but believes in it incomparably.

The people of Miao Village believe that as long as the sacrifice to the gods continues, life in the village will get better and better.

There was more prey, the grain was harvested, and everything seemed to be so good.

However, as everyone received the blessing of the gods, they attached more importance to the protection of the gods, and the requirements of the gods became more and more, and finally the great festival of the gods and the small festival of the gods appeared one after another.

In this case, although the people in Miao Village have a lot of collections, it is not good to always consume like this.

Slowly, the collection of Miao Village became less and less, and it almost dried up.

At this time, the outside world knows more and more about the 100,000 mountains, and there are more and more people who come to hunt for treasures.

Therefore, for the annual sacrifice of the gods, the people of Miao Village have worked a lot hard, and they have to work hard to find enough heavenly treasures.

However, when the power is exhausted.

The people of Miao Village have tried their best, but during a great sacrifice of the gods, the sacrifice is still not ready!

Therefore, that time of the Great Sacrifice of the Gods was incomplete.

Ay......

Speaking of this, the high priest sighed, and immediately opened his mouth and said: "That time the great sacrifice of the gods, because the sacrifices were not prepared enough, it brought great harm to the village, and many clansmen were punished by the gods because of this, either dead or injured. ”

How could there be such a thing?

Hong Xiao didn't expect it at all, he really wanted the gods to punish him?

In Hong Xiao's heart, he didn't want to believe such a thing!

However, the high priest didn't know what Hong Xiao thought, at least, he believed in the existence of the gods!

"When our people were punished, we were all terrified, and finally, one day, the gods appeared in a dream again, this time, it was a small punishment, and the next sacrifice of the gods would never allow such a situation to occur, otherwise, the whole village would be subject to the wrath of the gods.

Because of that incident, the last high priest of our village, who was my master, finally died of depression.

I am the priest of the stockade, their guardian, and in my guardianship, I will never allow anything like this to happen again.

Therefore, when the sacrifices were lost, I was ready to let the people move, and only in this way could I ensure the continuation of the village.

But I didn't expect that at such a critical moment, Mr. Hong Xiao, you appeared, you must be a god who can't bear us to be punished, so he sent it down to save us! ”

Hearing this, Hong Xiao raised his eyebrows.

I'm not a messenger of the gods, I'm me, the ghost king Hong Xiao.

What a bullshit god, in Hong Xiao's opinion, is just a fake and shoddy product.

However, looking at the appearance of the high priest, he must be very convinced of this god, and he believes it incomparably.

If Hong Xiao said that the gods did not exist now, even if the high priest would not say anything, he would not take his words as the same thing, and would even be secretly angry.

In the hearts of the Miao people, especially in the hearts of the older generation, the gods must exist.

They are all from the past, they have received the gifts of the gods, and they have also been punished by the gods, and in their hearts, they have always been

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) I am extremely convinced that the gods must exist, and that every sacrifice is the time when the gods appear.

"High priest, I know that you believe in the existence of the gods in your hearts, but I am not a messenger of the gods, I am me, and I was able to find the sacrifice this time because of good luck, if such a thing happens again, it may not be such good luck."

The high priest listened to Hong Xiao's words and said nothing, no denial!

However, I believe that Hong Xiao's words will definitely not have any impact on the high priest.

"By the way, High Priest, tomorrow is the Great Sacrifice of the Gods, can I participate?" Hong Xiao asked suddenly.

Hong Xiao really wanted to see what this so-called Heavenly God Sacrifice was.

And what is the god behind it!

Hong Xiao was very interested in them.

If something can be seen, it is difficult to argue with the evidence, no matter how much the high priest believes it.

Hong Xiao didn't want to break the faith of the Miao people, but these simple people should not be bewitched.

Hong Xiao has always firmly believed that there will be no ghosts and gods in this world, everything is an illusion, and it is all made by others.

As long as you find the person behind the scenes, you can naturally say anything!

In the final analysis, Hong Xiao just believed that his guess was correct, and there must be something wrong behind this heavenly god sacrifice.

"Absolutely!"

Hearing that Hong Xiao was going to participate in the sacrifice of the gods in Miao Village, the high priest didn't know what Hong Xiao's idea was, thinking that Hong Xiao really wanted to see it, so he was naturally happy to agree.

For the people of Miao Village, the sacrifice of the gods is very sacred at all times, even if there is almost such a big problem this time, but the sacrifice of the gods is still very important.

Therefore, ordinary outsiders are not qualified to participate at all.

But it is clear that Hong Xiao is not an outsider.

When Hong Xiao retrieved the sacrifice, he was already his own person.

Therefore, when he heard that Hong Xiao was going to participate in the sacrifice of the gods, the high priest agreed without thinking about it.

The bonfire didn't last too late, and everyone was ready for the next day's sacrifice to the gods.

Now that the sacrifice has been found, the rest of the matter is simple, the people of Miao Village have a great change in their attitude towards the sacrifice of the gods, and they all hope that after the sacrifice, they can usher in a good year of wind and rain.

Hong Xiao and the three were regarded as the most important VIPs and arranged to live in the patriarch's house.

For outsiders, it is a great honor to live in the house of the patriarch of Miao Village.

Because this represents the recognition of the entire Miao Village for you.

People who have not been recognized, let alone the patriarch's family, can't even live in ordinary Miao families.

Tonight, in addition to the brothers and sisters of Miao Village, the happiest person will belong to Zhuzhishan.

This guy has been yearning for Miao Doctor for a long time, and because of Hong Xiao's relationship, Zhu Zhishan is also very popular, and everyone is also responsive to his needs, in the second half of the bonfire party, this guy chatted with a very senior Miao doctor in the village.

Zhu Zhishan has a deep understanding of traditional Chinese medicine, and the old man is unique and insightful in Miao medicine.

The two exchanged ideas with each other and confirmed each other, and they both felt that they had gained a lot, and they even had a feeling of hating each other.

In the end, in order to express his gratitude to Hong Xiao, Doctor Miao also handed over his most precious handbook about Doctor Miao to Zhu Zhishan.

When he got this notebook, Zhu Zhishan was so excited that he held it desperately, lest it run away.

When he got this notebook, Zhu Zhishan knew that he had become the biggest beneficiary tonight.
