Chapter 44: Divine Grace Again
After three months of hard work by the whole clan, a shrine about the size of three rooms was finally completed in the center of the camp of the Taurus tribe. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, there is snake meat from the green python as a food reserve, and the tribesmen in the tribe do not need to go out to hunt and gather in a short time, and they can use all their heart and soul on it, otherwise they would not have been able to build it so quickly.
As soon as the shrine was completed, the Taurus patriarch led everyone to move the statue of the Pingtian clan that had already been molded into the shrine.
Of course, with the crude craftsmanship level of the Taurus tribe at this time, the statue they created is naturally not very good, it is just kneaded into a general shape with clay, and it can barely be seen that it is a bull-headed human body, very fat, as for the appearance or something, it is completely unreliable.
It's not that the people of the Taurus tribe are lazy, it's just that this craft is too difficult, and they have never been exposed to it before, so they have done their best to make it like this. It's like asking a child in the nursery class to paint a portrait of you, and if you can see that it's a person, it's time to burn incense.
It is the people of the Taurus tribe who see it themselves, and they feel that the statue they have created has not even been able to outline the majesty of one ten-thousandth of the god of Pingtian, which is really insulting the noble identity of the god of Pingtian, but fortunately, when the Pingtian clan passed the oracle to the patriarch of the Taurus on the same day, he said that he would be considerate and ordered the statue to be shaped, and after the shrine was completed, he would come to consecrate the statue, which made the people of the Taurus tribe not too worried because of this.
On the day of the completion of the shrine, the patriarch of the Taurus led all the tribesmen to the shrine and carried out the first sacrificial ceremony in the history of the Taurus tribe.
Under the leadership of the patriarch of the Taurus tribe, thousands of people of the Taurus tribe knelt down on the spacious flat ground in front of the shrine, and under the guidance of the Taurus patriarch, they prayed loudly to the idol of the Pingtian clan: "O great god of Pingtian, you are a merciful god, a powerful god, and an omnipotent god. Your people are here to pray to you for your blessings, for your blessings, for the prosperity of our tribe, and we will always believe in you, love you, pray to you, obey your will, and vow to strive for the spillage of your glory on the whole earth, and praise my God! ”
The prayer is not long, and it is very simple, but under the recitation of thousands of people, a sense of solemnity and sacredness naturally arises, so that the people of the Taurus tribe are involuntarily immersed in it, with tears in their eyes, a feeling of spiritual sublimation in their hearts, and a faint joy lingering in their hearts.
At this moment, the statue enshrined in the shrine suddenly emitted a faint golden light, and the clay statue seemed to have been roasted and melted by high temperature, like a fluid, and then solidified again, becoming like a glass cast, smooth and delicate, all kinds of colors flashed out in all parts of the statue body, wearing a golden crown and armor, and the eyes were shining and lifelike.
The original bloated posture and vague face also changed in the golden light, the bloated figure tightened and improved, became tall and tall, the posture was majestic, and the vague face became clear, and the appearance of the Ping Tian clan was revealed, as if it was a real person.
"The great god of peace has come!"
Seeing this, the tribesmen of the Taurus tribe couldn't help but cheer and bow down, and the whole tribe was boiling.
Ping Tian's distraction descended on the statue, opened his eyes and looked at the Jinniu tribe believers cheering and worshipping outside the shrine, and then looked at the empty shrine hall, not to mention the three animal sacrifices, not even an offering table, and couldn't help but shake his head. Or is it a pre-training, I don't even know how to prepare a tribute, if this is changed to another god, it would be good not to go crazy on the spot, and I want to be blessed? Dream on!
Fortunately, the Pingtian clan also knew that it was not that these believers were insincere, they really had too little knowledge and didn't understand anything, so they didn't get angry because of this matter.
Thinking of this, the Pingtian clan who threw himself into the statue spoke: "My people, I am very happy to see your piety and hard work, in order to reward your pious faith, I have decided to teach you some ways to support your life, I hope you can better spread my glory in the future!" ”
As he spoke, the Ping Tian clan waved his hand violently, and a spiritual light flew out from the fingertips of the god statue, instantly submerging into the eyebrows of the Taurus patriarch who was kneeling in front.
The Taurus patriarch felt a chill on his forehead, and then a huge amount of information surged out of his mind, and the huge amount of information almost burst the Taurus patriarch's simple mind.
It took a long time for the Taurus patriarch to understand the information that had invaded his mind, but he couldn't help but be so excited that he almost fainted.
It never occurred to him that there were so many ways to get food beyond the hunting and gathering they had long relied on for their livelihood. For example, hunting does not necessarily have to be face-to-face with a javelin and spear to hunt wild beasts, but you can also make traps, dig a pit, place branches at the mouth of the pit, and cover it with a layer of floating soil, so that the beast can fall into the pit on its own.
The lambs and fawns that are caught do not have much meat to eat, so they can be tied up, tied up with ropes or enclosed in wooden pens, fed with forage and then slaughtered for meat.
The fresh fish in the water can be caught with nets woven from vines, or you can put a little bait in a clay pot and sink into the water to trap prawns and crabs in the water, and you can also go down to the river to catch those big river mussels at the bottom of the water, which are all delicious food.
Plants such as rice can also be grown by slash-and-burn farming, and after they are grown, they can be turned into fragrant rice and dough after simple processing. Moreover, compared to farming and fishing, this method of farming produces more food and is easier to control, so as long as you put in the hard work, you will never be afraid of going hungry again.
Figuring out this information, the Taurus patriarch couldn't help but burst into tears, this is a great divine grace, even much heavier than killing the giant python, killing the giant python is just to solve the temporary danger of their tribe, but these ways of life support taught this time are the foundation for their tribe to prosper forever!
The Taurus patriarch reopened his eyes and found that although the statues in the shrine were still lifelike, the golden light on his body had faded and seemed to have left.
After turning around, he found that the entire tribe was looking at him with blank eyes, and everyone had heard what the Ping Tian clan had said before, and they were all eager to know what kind of way of life the great god had given him.
The Taurus patriarch stood up from the ground tremblingly, and said loudly to the tribesmen with tears in his eyes: "Rejoice, tribesmen, the great Pingtian God has bestowed us with great divine grace, as long as we follow his teachings, we will no longer have to be troubled by hunger!" ”
When his words fell, the tribe suddenly burst into jubilation!
