Chapter 31: The Tianhe Plain
The area of the Southern Great Plain is much larger than that of Jilei Mountain, and the radius of Jilei Mountain is only thousands of miles, but this Great Plain stretches for tens of thousands of miles, which is many times larger than Jilei Mountain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is not surprising that Jilei Mountain and the Southern Great Plains are still within the scope of the Northwest Wasteland, and since the name of the Northwest Wasteland has an original word, the area of the plain is naturally much larger than that of other landforms such as mountains and hills.
It took Niu Mo a few months to hastily walk through the entire Great Plains and get a general idea of the situation here. The creatures on the plain call this plain the Tianhe Plain, because the entire plain is crossed by a large river called the Tongtian River that originates from the high mountains of the Western Regions, and seven or eight tenths of the entire plain area is within the basin of the Tongtian River.
On the Tianhe Plain, there are thousands of human tribes living in total, these tribes are of different sizes, the big ones may have tens of thousands of people, the small ones are only more than 100 people, the human beings on the entire plain are still in the ignorant primitive tribal period, have not developed a decent civilization, worship the mountains, rivers, rivers, and all natural phenomena such as wind, rain, thunder and lightning that cannot understand the cause are attributed to the unknown gods.
These tribes are still in the primitive totem worship stage, and most of the tribes have their own totems, and most of them are mainly creatures with great power.
Because there are many fierce birds and beasts in the wilderness, if there is no strong force to protect them, it is difficult for the weak human race to survive in the wilderness, and maybe a random giant beast will destroy the entire tribe. Therefore, these primitive humans usually worship and worship the powerful creatures nearby, in exchange for some basic protection provided by the other party to a certain extent, and in the great wilderness, powerful creatures such as monsters or savage beasts are the most common.
After figuring out these situations, Niu Mo couldn't help but be overjoyed, because this is simply the best soil for spreading faith, and this is also the purpose of Niu Mo's descent this time.
As I have said before, the Heavenly Demon Yuan God mainly grows by absorbing the power of the soul and the heart, and when it comes to the collection of the power of the soul and the heart, the most effective way is to spread religious beliefs.
Compared with the spiritual power generated by emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, love, and fear, the spiritual power generated through devout faith is undoubtedly purer and easier to refine and absorb. This kind of spiritual power has an exclusive title in later generations, the West calls it the power of faith, and the East calls it the power of incense and wish, and even based on this, a special cultivation system has evolved, which shows the strong effect.
Through religious beliefs, not only is the power of the soul collected more refined, but it also has a great advantage in harvesting souls, and if the souls of living beings are collected through other means, they will definitely be resisted by living beings, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort. However, collecting through religious beliefs can easily solve this problem, as long as you add a clause to the teachings that as long as you believe in faith, you can ascend to heaven or the kingdom of God after death, and the soul of the believer will be happy to throw herself into the arms after death.
Moreover, once religious belief is established, as long as attention is paid to maintaining it, it will be passed down from generation to generation with the reproduction of believers, and the number of believers is increasing, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger, which can be said to be a good deal that will benefit from a lifetime of investment.
……
In the westernmost part of the Tianhe Plain, in the middle and upper reaches of the Tongtian River, there is a long and narrow plain. In addition to the weeds that spread across the plains, there were also sparse jungles that inhabited a medium-sized tribe of thousands of people.
On the periphery of the tribe stood a fence of thick logs, and wooden stakes the thickness of buckets and more than a man high were rammed into the earth. The stakes are connected to each other by ropes made of vines.
Inside the rough wooden fence are primitive and simple thatched huts, with tent-like domes made of thatch, supported by logs as skeletons, and simple walls made of mud pasted with cracks, which look similar to tents.
It was early morning, but the people of the tribe were already busy trying to survive. It is not easy to survive in the wilderness, especially for the weak, human beings do not have the strong physique and swift speed of wild beasts, so they can only pay more hard work in order to survive.
Men came out of the tribe in droves, carrying rudimentary wooden spears made from the teeth of wild beasts, the youngest looking to be in their teens, the oldest in their thirties, and the older ones not to be seen.
Because of the difficulty of survival, people's life expectancy is very short at this time, once the peak of life is passed, the body will quickly weaken, and all the hidden injuries and dark diseases left in the past will be found, and it is too common to die of a minor illness in this era.
Even if there is no illness or disaster, but if the body is poor, the ability in all aspects will inevitably be greatly reduced, and if you can't catch enough food, your body will become weaker and weaker, and you will not be able to find anything to eat. At this time, people did not pay much attention to supporting the elderly, because the food of the tribe was limited, and priority was given to the young adults who were the main force of obtaining food and the children who continued the hope of the ethnic group, so there was no share of the elderly, so the old people who lost their ability to survive could only slowly starve to death.
Most of these people wore only a fur apron to cover the intimate parts of their lower bodies, and a few solid old vines were tied around their waists, which were used to tie up the prey they had captured. The upper body is ****, revealing strong muscles and thick chest hair.
The women's outfits are a little more concealed than the men's, and an extra animal skin is wrapped around the chest, covering the highlights of a pair of ** on the chest, but there are still large pieces of plump body exposed, swaying up and down as they walk.
The men went out hunting, and the women were not idle, leading some of the young children who were already able to help with the work into the jungle near the tribe to gather wild vegetables and fruits. After all, the meat hunted by the men alone was not enough for all the people of the tribe to eat, and they had to rely on wild vegetables and wild fruits as a supplement.
Although many of the wild vegetables and wild fruits in the jungle are poisonous, after the blood and tears of countless ancestors, they already know which wild vegetables and wild fruits growing in the jungle are not poisonous and can be eaten, and which are poisonous and cannot be eaten.
Niu Mo looked at this tribe from afar, this was already the ninth Terran tribe he observed, and the previous eight tribes were all abandoned by him for one reason or another, hoping that this tribe would satisfy him.
If you want to collect faith for the Heavenly Demon Yuanshen, you must first find a way to become the totem of the human tribe, and only in this way can you develop your faith logically.
However, which tribe to become the totem also needs to be carefully chosen.
First of all, the strength of the tribe should not be too weak, because a weak tribe means that the development is slow, and the faith cannot spread quickly, and it will be difficult for the Heavenly Demon Yuan God to grow rapidly.
Secondly, the original totem beast cultivation realm of the tribe should not be too high, otherwise the Heavenly Demon Yuan God would not be able to take it away.
