Chapter 12: The Sacrifice
Aya found that in fact, Ahang's life was really incomparably simple, that is, eating, sleeping, and then being responsible for the distribution of tribal patrol and defense every day, and then going hunting in the forest when he had free time, and now he learned tiger boxing with Aya more, his life was so simple and sufficient. In the same way, the things that primitive people can count as entertainment are sacrifices in Aya's view, but they don't regard them as entertainment, but they are very sacred.
Every time she talked to Aya about how he hunted or how he got along with those warriors, Aya listened carefully and captured useful information.
Soon, it was time to sacrifice to the harvest god.
All the tribes were gathered under the sacred tree of the tribe, around the perimeter of the sacred tree, and every sacrifice was held under it.
It is not clear what kind of tree it is, but there are about two or three people hugging each other, although it is an old tree, but the branches are luxuriant, tall and stout, the main trunk is vigorous, and there are white and pink flowers, and under the dusk sunset, vigorous vitality swells around.
This is the first time Ah Jin has come here, this sacred tree is guarded by special warriors, with stones around the circle, people are not allowed to approach on ordinary days, only when the sacrifice is to let people come to worship.
The sacred fire was drawn out from the sacred place of the tribe, and a bright fire was lit around the surrounding area, and everyone was sitting around the fire.
Every time the fire was brought out of the holy place, it was brought out of the holy place by a special person, and in the early morning, it was delivered to every house in the tribe, and in the evening, everyone had to put out the fire. It was also a means of tribal control, and fire was indispensable, whether it was used to drive away wild beasts or to cook food.
Only the warriors who guard the tribe at night, because they have to defend against wild beasts, can keep a fire, but in the morning, they will also extinguish the fire.
Aya was with Ah Chung and her family.
Everything was ready, and at a strange and lofty long whistle from Wu Zhu, everyone stood up, their eyes fixed in the direction of the tree, their faces furiously adored.
Then the big witch zhu took the two little witch beads around the tree and moved around the small circle, dancing in a strange posture, holding in his hand a piece of animal bone that could be held by both hands, with dense words engraved on it, and his mouth was muttering something, and his face was full of respectful expectation.
And Ah Jin, Ah Feng and others are on the circle a little outside of Ah Rui Wu Zhu, and they are also dancing in the same posture, and the others are gone. After jumping for a while, Ah Rui Wuzhu stopped, looked at Ah Feng and Ah Jian, and the two immediately went to get the clay pot, which contained holy water, and brought the clay pot in his hand, and then Ah Rui Wuzhu said something he didn't understand, and every time he said a word, he put the bones in his hand into the clay pot and dipped it, or sprinkled the water on the trunk of the tree, or gently touched the root of the tree a few times.
Aya matched his expression, guessing that she was expressing gratitude and reverence to the harvest god, and hoping that she would always protect the tribe, which was probably what it meant.
Then Ari Wuzhu raised the long bone in his hand to all the subordinates, and said a few words, and all of them danced around the fire in front of him, with a fanatical face, Aya was also infected, and held hands with Ah Gong, and beat with joy.
Everything that people get is really a gift from nature, and it is true that we must be grateful, and the earlier human beings are, the more we can realize this.
Because of walking, switching in the fire, turning around, and finally stopping, they all arrived at a fire quite far away, because the amount of action is so large, so everyone's faces are a kind of flush, Ari Wuzhu also smiled very holy and kind, and then prayed to the harvest god, and the sacrifice ended.
Let the warriors distribute the food to everyone, and the people shouted enthusiastically, and gathered around the fire to eat and eat meat, and the night was completely dark, and only the bright fire was a little starlight in the dark night.
But gradually calmed down, she didn't forget her purpose, and now, like Ah Feng, Ah Jin, and Ah Li, they are all shuttling through the fire, talking to their friends or something, or communicating with their subordinates.
All she had to wait for was Allie coming over.
Although other people's attention was focused on the matter of sacrifice before, but he was different, her expression was focused on looking at a few people, what she found was that now Ah Feng and A Jin have not established a relationship at this time, although the relationship with her is better, but the relationship with the other two Xiao Wuzhu candidates is also good, this is obvious, he is also wait-and-see, and it can also be seen that he has an attitude towards the world, not the kind of easy decision-making, very cautious.
This is probably because of his character and his ambitions, if he has the ambition of unifying a tribe, then he naturally has high requirements for his future spouse, if he wants to choose in the future, the best is to become a young girl of Xiao Wuzhu, then it is in Ah Jin, Ah Li, Ah Guo Among the three people, Ah Guo looked at him very clearly, obviously has no other thoughts, so if he wants to make a choice at present, it is naturally from Ah Jin and Ah Li.
However, the probability of them becoming Xiao Wu Zhu is the same, he does not dare to act rashly at present, although what he hopes in his heart is Ah Jin, if Ah Jin becomes Xiao Wu Zhu, he chooses so, it is naturally perfect, everyone is happy, but if it doesn't work, he can only regret choosing Ah Li.
However, when Ali came over, Aya's expression flickered and she retracted her previous thoughts, if she said it at this time, then it would be too false to provoke something, people may not believe it, so let's wait! Now that it's just for the future plot development she knows, what if she doesn't go like this? It's about imposing the future on someone else, and if it really goes that way, it's not too much to do anything else. Anyway, these candidates have to go through a half-year trial, so she still slows down, although she wants to complete the strategy very urgently, but in the end, it is because of the conscience of this Kanka master. But she thinks this is the way it should be, she thought about it before, no one offended me, I still don't offend first.
Because of thinking about this, he was slightly distracted, was pulled by Ah Zhong, retracted his thoughts, smiled at her, and took the cooked meat she handed over. (To be continued.) )
