Chapter 70: Primitive Tribes
I put my hand into my clothes, quickly took out the deep-sea night pearl hidden on my body, and stretched down with one hand to the big black bear.
The big black bear saw the pearl of the deep sea night, as if it had seen its father, snorted softly, quickly retreated down, turned around and plunged into the jungle, with the loud sound in the distance, the big black bear disappeared into the distance in a blink of an eye, and the jungle quickly quieted down, as if everything that had just happened was like a dream.
I really didn't expect that the tears of the black dragon, the pearl of the night of the deep sea, could save my life at such a critical moment, as Xiao Yun said, this bead is indeed related to me.
I sighed softly, climbed down the tree, and when I reached the ground, I saw no mermaid, and I didn't know where she had run or where she was hiding.
If I had accidentally lost her, would it not be my sin to be in such a deserted place?
I shouted at the mermaid a few times in all directions, but I didn't hear a response, and now all I could do was follow the direction the mermaid had just run to find her.
But after walking for a while, I realized that my idea was wrong, because I found that there was no trace of running on the ground, could it be that the mermaid suddenly turned around halfway?
I suddenly remembered the wisp of green smoke I had seen when I climbed to the top of the tree, and maybe I could find something there, so I made sure I was in the direction and began to follow the direction of the green smoke.
After walking for a while, I was getting closer and closer to the position of Qingyan, and suddenly I heard a sound of "huhuhaha, huhuhehehe" in front of me, like a group of people were holding some kind of ceremony, could it be that there are other people on this isolated island besides me and the mermaid?
In a cautious manner, I quietly approached the source of the sound, and found the source of the sound by the low grass, small trees, and thorns on the groundβit was a group of primitive people dancing hip-hop around a fire.
The wisp of green smoke was really made by them by burning the fire, these primitive people did not wear modern clothes, but used shiny leaves woven into three layers around the body to cover the key parts, even women, and a small number of primitive people wrapped their bodies in animal skins.
I couldn't believe my eyes, entering the modern civilized society, there was such a group of primitive tribesmen living on a remote island in the ocean, only primitive societies can see, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes today, I would have thought I was dreaming.
At this moment, a thin primitive man wearing a small shell on his wrist ran from the side, and squeaked something to a tall primitive man with his hand.
Seeing his gestures, I felt very familiar, and after a little thought, it turned out to be a mute language that I had learned, I really didn't expect to see it on such an occasion, could it be that the mute language was transmitted from primitive society to modern times?
The emaciated primitive man gestured with his hand and said, "Chief, the ritual of sacrificing to the heavens has been prepared, please give orders!" β
The chief looked at the emaciated primitive man and gestured with his hand.
It means: "I already know that the holy woman who sacrifices to heaven is ready?" β
The thin primitive man gestured with his hand for a while, meaning: "It's ready, please take a look!" Then, the thin primitive man whistled loudly, at this time, from behind a pile of thatch, out of a few primitive people, carrying a tied woman, I fixed my eyes, it was a mermaid, no wonder I couldn't find her, it turned out to be caught by this group of primitive people, this is really just out of the bear's mouth, and into the wolf's den!
Several primitive people lifted the mermaid to the chief, the chief looked down at the mermaid carefully, the mermaid glanced at the chief with vicious eyes, but did not speak, and then, the chief squeaked a few words, seemed to be very satisfied with the mermaid as the saint of the sacrifice to the sky, the chief snorted, those primitive people who were dancing the primitive dance immediately stopped dancing, and turned their heads to look at the chief, the chief gestured with his hand for a while, which roughly meant to say, "The holy woman who sacrifices to the sky is ready, everyone is ready to prepare for the ceremony of worshipping the sky." At three o'clock in the afternoon today, the sacrifice to the sky began! β
After the chieftain was finished, the primitives danced more happily and shouted louder.
I looked up at the sky, the sun was almost above, and it was estimated that there would be an hour before the chief said three o'clock in the afternoon, although I don't know what the chief meant by taking the holy maiden to sacrifice to the sky, but when I was reading before, I had seen some historical records, the so-called primitive tribe took the holy woman to sacrifice to the sky, that is, to throw the holy woman into the fire and burn her alive, so cruel, it really shouldn't be done by human beings!
Now that the mermaid has been caught by them, as a saint who sacrifices to the sky, how can I save her? Recklessly rushing out to save people is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, throwing yourself into a net, maybe you can't save the mermaid, and you have to put yourself in it, but if you don't save the mermaid, will you just watch the mermaid being taken to the sky?
I thought about it for a while, and thought about it, since primitive people communicate in mute language, and I am proficient in mute language, I can save the mermaid, so I can only disguise myself as a primitive person, blend in with the primitive crowd, and wait for the opportunity to rescue the mermaid.
Thinking of this, I took advantage of the cover, quietly retreated, took off my clothes, picked some leaves, disguised myself, and really looked like a primitive person, and then jumped into the primitive crowd, and learned that they danced together around the fire.
To my surprise, my joining did not arouse the suspicion of the people around me, and no one deliberately came forward to ask me where I came from, which made me feel very strange, could it be that these primitive people are not familiar with each other? Or are they too busy with the celestial rituals to take care of me? Otherwise, how can a stranger arrive without alerting them?
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly the primitive man next to me smiled and typed "Hello!" In a hurry, I smiled and replied to him, "Hello! gestures.
In this way, no one paid attention to my presence, not even the chieftain who was standing not far away.
This situation made my courage even stronger, and I shook my body as I danced the primitive dance, and slowly leaned towards the place where the mermaid was lying.
When I got to the mermaid's side, I stopped, and the mermaid looked up at me with disdain, but did not recognize me, and thought that I was just one of the primitives.
"It's me!" I whispered.
The mermaid's eyes were full of surprise and seemed to be full of surprise, "It's you?" Brother Wen! β
"Shhh β
The mermaid nodded slightly.
Then I heard the sound of running behind me, and when I looked sideways, it was the thin primitive man with a small shell in his hand running, and he came to me and gestured at me.
Roughly speaking, "What are you doing here?" β
I gestured back to him, "I see that this saint is beautiful, come and see!" β
The other party gestured back to me, "This is the Holy Maiden of Worshipping the Heavens, don't you have any crooked ideas?" β
I immediately gestured back, "It's a pity that such a beautiful saint is sacrificed to the heavens, why don't you find another saint and give this beautiful woman to the chief?" β
The emaciated primitive man turned to look at the chief, then turned back and gestured, "You stay here, I'll ask the chief!" β
He turned to leave, I thought to myself, this is the best time to escape, I leaned down, and was about to untie the rope for the mermaid, when suddenly out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of a pair of breathtaking eyes staring at me tightly, which made my whole body stand on end, and my whole body shivered, had I been exposed?
I turned my head and looked into those breathtaking eyes.
"Hong Ye-" I was so shocked that I almost shouted, no, it's not Hong Ye, the woman in front of me is a middle-aged version of Hong Ye, could it be Hong Ye's mother? Thinking of the rescued Hongmenjia a few days ago, my thoughts began to be confused, not to say, in order to avoid internal disputes in the Hong's group, Hongmenjia brought his wife to settle abroad, why did Hongmenjia appear in China again, and was chased and killed by the people of Feitian, how could he see Hongmenjia's wife and Hong Ye's mother on such a deserted island today? Could it be that the Hongmen Jia couple did not settle abroad, but hid on such a desert island to engage in some secret affairs?
I saw her walking towards me with a smile, and those primitive people suddenly all knelt down when they saw her! What's going on? Could it be that these primitive people in front of them are not real, but just the subordinates of the woman in front of them, deliberately disguised as primitive people? But what is the purpose of doing this?
"I've been paying attention to you for a long time, tell me, why are you disguised as a primitive and mixed in?" The woman asked suddenly.
"I'm here to save people!" I responded.
"Oh? Does this woman have a relationship with you? β
"It's my friend! How could I watch my friends being sacrificed to heaven by this group of primitives? β
"Will you be dumb?"
I nodded.
"Who are you? Why did you come to this isolated island? β
"The plane we were on crashed and fell into this vast sea, which is also our great fortune, and we miraculously survived, drifting to this isolated island with the sea, which disturbed you!"
"If you can pass the Black Bear Pass, you must have some ability!"
"Oh? Did you raise the big black bear? β
"It's not a good thing to raise, it's true that I have some origins!"
"I'm curious, how can you, a woman, live on such a lonely desert island with a group of primitive people, and aren't you afraid of loneliness?"
"With so many primitive people, what am I still lonely and lonely? Besides, when you come to a lonely island, won't I be even more lonely and lonely? Tie me upβ" The woman suddenly ordered.
The primitive people rushed up, the so-called heroes do not suffer immediate losses, and fearless resistance will only attract greater suffering, so they can only give up resistance and let them be bound.
"Bring them into the underground lab!"
Underground labs? It seems that what are they really secretly studying here?
"Well, the sacrifice to the heavensβ" the chief asked.
It turns out that these primitive people can speak, use dumb language, and don't speak, they are all pretending!
"Sacrifice to the sky in advance, now that the plane crashed, these two people can survive, there must be other survivors coming, our small island, is finally going to be lively, just take these survivors for experiments, isn't it wonderful?"
The chief nodded and praised: "Master, high opinion! I'll arrange it! β
After the chief left, the mermaid and I were carried into the underground laboratory by several primitive people, the shape, structure, and design of this underground laboratory were almost the same as the basement I saw with Xiao Luo, it can be said that it was exactly the same, it seems that Hong Menjia and his wife are also secretly engaged in the research of manta fish beasts here.
The primitive people took me and the mermaid into a stone cell that resembled a prison structure, and after we were untied, we were locked inside, and the cell door was chained up, and there seemed to be some other people in the stone cells besides me and the mermaid.
"Looks like they're going to be used as a test again!" The mermaid said teasingly.
"I've had the first time, but I'm afraid that the second time won't happen?" I responded.
"You're not afraid, I'm afraid, maybe it's going to be transformed into some magical creature, and then it's not as simple as a fish's tail!"
"A fish tail is not good, but it is not bad to grow a monkey's tail!"
"A monkey's tail? I don't want it, it's ugly! That's not as beautiful as a fish's tail! β
"Then you quickly pray to those bad guys, don't get you a monkey's tail!"
"Alas, they want to get it, and I can't help it, and now I'm arrested, so I can only let it be slaughtered! Hey, you say, are they going to turn you into a mermaid too? β
"I've only heard of women turning into mermaids, and I've never heard of men turning into mermaids, even if there is, it's called a mermaid!"
"Then you're called a mermaid!"
"Are you cursing me, or are you gloating? I think they're going to get you out of two fish tails! β
"I don't want it!"
The mermaid and I teased each other, and suddenly the prisoner in the cell across the stone chamber caught my attention.
The person inside was wearing a beige and somewhat old dress, and she sat there, although she couldn't see her face clearly, but the silhouette of the other party's body had already told me that it was a woman, and her body silhouette was somewhat familiar.
The mermaid saw that I had stopped teasing her any longer, and stopped talking on her own.
I was silent for a while, and then began to shout at the stone room opposite, "Sister of the stone room opposite, looking at your appearance, I think you've been locked up here for a long time, right?" β
There was silence in the stone room opposite for a while, and suddenly said, "Sister? Look at your appearance, as old as my daughter, and you call me sister? β
"Your long hair obscures your face, and your body is so slender, I thought you were only a few years older than me, and I don't want to be a generation apart! In this case, I don't want to call you! β
"The title is just a code name, look at your young age and call me sister, I am naturally very happy in my heart!"
I thought to myself, this woman is very funny!
"You haven't answered my question yet!" I asked.
"There is no sun and moon here, I can't remember how long I have been locked up, I only know that the number of times I have slept here, at least a thousand times!"
"So, you've been locked up here for at least three years!"
"I'm afraid it's more than that!"
"Locked up for so long? Brother Wen, are weβ" The mermaid was surprised.
I stretched out my hand to interrupt the mermaid's words, signaling her not to rush to say it yet, and wait until she heard what the woman in the stone room opposite had to say, and then it was not too late to make plans!
The mermaid obediently stopped talking.
"It seems that you must have offended the woman above, which is why she locked you up for so long, but I wonder why she locked you up for so long without hurting you?"
"Listening to what you said, I think you are an understanding person, do you want to see my true face of Lushan?"
"I saw that your body was so familiar before, and I had planned to do so!"
"When you see it, your questions, your doubts, you can answer them yourself!"
After the woman finished speaking, her hands began to brush the long hair that covered her face.
"Ahh
