Chapter 34 Energy Crystals
When the sun was setting in the afternoon, the desert oasis tribe began to gradually regain calm, and the old and weak women and children of the aborigines of the oasis tribe gathered in several sacrificial adobe bungalows returned to their adobe bungalows one after another, counted the losses of their families in this battle, and went to the bushes and grasses of the nearby desert to find the goats, cows, and donkeys that had run away.
As for the few camels in the tribe, they have always been guarded as war supplies, and when armed robbers attack the oasis, no matter whose camels they have, they have to be led to the vicinity of the oasis sacrificial bungalow, after all, camels are the foot power of the desert natives.
For the next period of time, the whole tribe had something to do, and many adobe bungalows were destroyed to varying degrees, and the whole tribe, men, women, and children, had to work hard to repair the sandy walls of these bungalows, which could not be done in a day or two.
The wounded tribal warriors were taken by the women to two larger bungalows in the sacrificial adobe house, which was originally a special place for the entire Oasis tribe to treat the wounded of the tribal warriors, but it was actually a small health center with some earth-foreign treatment equipment and medicines.
In an adobe room, there were more than a dozen low wire beds, and on the beds lay down the fleece blankets of tribal warriors who had been wounded in battle, all of them were seriously wounded, the bullets on their bodies had been removed, the wounds had been sutured and bandaged in a standardized manner, there were two wounded who had lost too much blood, blood bags were being transfused on the shelves at the head of the bed, and several Tuareg women with Arab faces who looked great and wore robes were taking care of the wounded after a busy day.
Among the wounded, there were no broken hands and feet, because they could not be rescued at all, and they had already lost a lot of blood and hung up, and the other lightly injured were arranged in the homes of the tribal villagers, so as to reduce the burden on the health center.
Song Xiaoshuang and Isabel walked into the health center with two large houses for the first time, and listened to the bearded Farhad briefly introduce the situation of the health center in Chinese.
From Farhad's mouth, the two also learned that the Tuareg tribe in this desert oasis is one of the few tribes of the entire Tuareg tribe that has settled in one place for a long time, and is not in a state of constant migration and nomadism in the desert as the outside world knows, and there are not only a few women who have attended nursing school, but also a surgeon who has graduated from a regular medical school.
When Farhad took Song Xiaoshuang and Isabel to another adobe house, and just walked in to introduce the doctor to the two of them, a woman in her thirties with a beautiful face and wheat-colored skin, but a slightly fat body and wearing a gray-white robe, was walking out quickly from the inside, and her expression was slightly stunned when she saw Farhad.
The woman grabbed Farhad's stand-up collar robe with both hands, ignoring Isabel and Song Xiaoshuang beside her, looking at Farhad with anger and sadness, and shouted in a low voice in Arabic: "Farhad, how did Maijid get hurt?" You bastard, the people in the tribe told me she was hit in the lungs by a stray bullet! But I checked her injuries again, and it was strange that she was just feeling tired, weak, and had a scar on her arm and chest that looked like it had been burned by heat, and McGid told me that it was an uncle who saved her? The warhead has been taken out! Well, it can't be this brother from Asia next to you, right? ”
"McGid isn't here? Went to the temple with his brother Saeed again? ”
Fahad let her tug at her collar and whispered angrily, and when he heard her anger come to his senses, Fahad spoke in Arabic in a somewhat lonely tone.
"Where else can I go, since the old wizard thought McJid had potential, McJid went to the temple to read those strange books and texts that we couldn't understand, and once I asked her, and she said that the old wizard had taught her to read those ancient texts, words that only belonged to the wizard's lineage to learn. No, I have to go to the temple to see, her health is very poor, let's take it home and recuperate for a few days."
The woman no longer grabbed Farhad by the collar, and rushed out of the room before she could finish her sentence next to the iron-racked medicine cabinet with a lot of medicines, repeatedly circling in circles while speaking Arabic quickly.
Isabel was the first to understand the relationship between Farhad and the woman who rushed out of the room, but it was very inappropriate to say it at this time.
Farhad walked out with an embarrassed expression, and said in Chinese with a self-deprecating tone: "She is what I call a surgeon, there is nothing to see here is some surgical instruments, she is still my McJid, Saeed sister and brother two mother Emmima, Emmimai temper is like a volcano, in fact, people are very good, it was the previous tribal leader (the old man who ran to France) proposed to let her go to medical school for further study, and when she came back, she learned that the old wizard chose McJid as a tribal wizard to cultivate, and she didn't dare to get angry with the old wizard, so she took me out." , so the temper sometimes becomes hotter than before, Brother Song Xiaoshuang, don't you mind? ”
Song Xiaoshuang and Isabel followed Farhad out, of course Song Xiaoshuang didn't care about what Farhad said, just looked at Isabel who was following him, and then said with some hesitation: "A female man like Isabel?" ”
Farhad didn't notice the almost cannibalistic expression on Isabel's face, and spoke quickly in Chinese: "Female man? In fact, she was very meticulous and serious when she did the operation, especially this kind of operation that lasted for more than ten hours in a row, and it is understandable to get angry at people, let's go, let's go to the funeral of the Oasis tribe warriors, they should be almost ready! ”
When Song Xiaoshuang heard that he was attending the funeral, his brain was bigger.
Just now Farhad said that since Song Xiaoshuang is a wizard, the funeral prayer ceremony will be handed over to Song Xiaoshuang, and the old wizard will be in charge of such a thing when the old wizard is there, and now that the old wizard is gone, the wizard McJid who took over should be in charge of such a thing.
But McGid was too young, and the only prayer service was the one when the old wizard died of old age a few years ago (no one in the tribe had braids at all for a few years, and McJid didn't have a chance to play).
Now that McJid is in poor health and the number of tribal warriors has fallen more than twenty people in total, Farhad, who is the leader of the Tuareg tribe, immediately assigned the task to Song Xiaoshuang, and Fahad intuited that Song Xiaoshuang can complete the prayer ceremony to comfort the undead very well, because Song Xiaoshuang and these fallen warriors work together to defend against the enemy, and his daughter Mejid does not have such great charm and ability to appease so many undead, Song Xiaoshuang was directly speechless
The sun is like blood on the horizon, and there are many shrubs in the desert oasis in the corner of the desert sand, dozens of Tuareg tribesmen with AK47 scarves on their shoulders to cover their faces are standing in the sand, and there are twenty-two rectangular sand pits with a distance of one meter in front of them more than ten meters away, and there is a large sand pit with a diameter of at least three meters more than ten meters away on the horizontal side.
The leaders of the two tribes, Farhad and Eliham, covered their faces with scarves, and Isabelle, a ten-year-old girl, McJid, and her seven-year-old brother Said, all of whom stood in front of them.
McGid and his younger brother Said, who had changed into a robe, did not cover their faces with a scarf, they were just children, and they did not have the same serious etiquette requirements as adults.
At this time, the eyes of dozens of people were all on Song Xiaoshuang, who was walking slowly around the twenty-two rectangular sand pits, with one less robe sleeve on his body, constantly chanting something, and with a solemn expression on his face, he had already seen beads of sweat on his forehead.
Seeing that the strange uncle Song Xiaoshuang's prayer ritual was obviously different from the fat wizard in his memory, Said, who was only seven years old, muttered and spoke in Tuareg, which meant that he felt that it was strange for his uncle to do this.
Said's muttering immediately attracted a low rebuke from his sister McJid: "Shut up, Said, uncle is much more powerful than the wizard Mama, he can make the leader fly to the car without getting hurt, and he can also emit lightning in his hand, well, oh bad I told the secret"
After all, the ten-year-old girl is a child, and she didn't directly say that the leader was her father at this moment, but she still leaked her mouth and inadvertently told the secret that her uncle Song Xiao's palms could emit lightning arcs, and Aunt Isabel said several times not to talk nonsense.
McJid looked at Aunt Isabel who was beside her with some weakness, and found that she was also missing a white sleeve and two rows of tooth marks on her arm were clearly visible, McJid knew that it was bitten by her own mouth, but Auntie's attention was not here at all, like other adults, it was all on Uncle Song Xiaoshuang who was reciting the secret mantra, McJid didn't say much, and then carefully observed how Uncle Song Xiaoshuang performed the prayer ceremony.
McJid didn't observe anything else, but she had been taught by the wizard who had hung up, and knew that her uncle was reciting a secret spell in his mouth, and others couldn't learn it if they wanted to, and each wizard had his own way of summoning the energy of the natural world, and it all depended on the wizard's understanding, even if others learned it, it was useless.
Song Xiaoshuang learned the sorcerer mantra to appease the dead from the primitive religion of Yunnan, and he didn't learn it all at all, and he didn't enter the state long ago, reciting a strange mantra that even he couldn't understand in his mouth, plus his ability has been much worse than before recently, in order to complete the prayer ritual that is nonsense in the eyes of secular people, this kind of thing is very consuming of spiritual power, Song Xiaoshuang sweated down, and after slowly turning around the twenty-two sand pits, he stopped reciting the mantra and left the vicinity of the sand pit, His expression replied and he waved his hand to signal that his prayer ceremony was over and it was time to do the finishing thing.
With a wave of his arm, several tribal warriors behind him took out several small barrels of gasoline, poured some of the gasoline into the twenty-two bunkers, and poured the other part all into the three-meter-large bunker, the smell of gasoline flying away in the wind, and the smell was pungent.
The tribal warriors then threw small sticks lit with rags wrapped in rags into several rectangular bunkers, as well as into the three-metre-large bunker, and the flames burst into flames! Dozens of tribal warriors standing in the sand with guns on their backs fired several short shots into the sky with their guns, and the gunshots were so eye-catching!
Twenty-two rectangular bunkers lay the battle-dead tribal warriors (the tribal warriors who cleaned up the battlefield tried to put together the pieces of scattered corpses), with dry bush branches under them, and gasoline as a firestarter.
Because the desert oasis tribes do not believe in Islam, but gradually die out of the primitive religion, these tribal warriors who died in battle lie in the sand pit without facing the position of the holy city, is facing the oasis tribe, the original thin burial burial has also been reformed into cremation and then sand burial, which is due to the special geographical location of the desert oasis, burned to ashes and dust to dust will not have the slightest impact on the entire underground water system, if the oasis residents living in the desert area are ignorant and ignorant, it is a fool.
As for the large bunker, there were the corpses of the armed robbers who had been wiped out, as well as some broken firearms that could not be used, and of course the indispensable bush branches. Originally, there were a few armed robbers who were seriously injured but could not die for a while, and they were directly accounted for by the angry tribal warriors who fired a few shots, and Farhad did not stop them from doing so, leaving the seriously injured robbers would consume the resources of the tribe, and it would be angry to watch the robbers not die
It was late at night, Song Xiaoshuang entered the adobe bungalow entered the oasis tribe for the first time, a small lamp of a portable rechargeable lamp was lit on the wooden cabinet in the corner, and the whitish light illuminated the entire adobe bungalow, and Song Xiaoshuang, Isabel, Farhad, and Ellie Ham sat around the broken wooden table.
Song Xiaoshuang stared at the two square cylindrical crystals for a long time, and then said, "Farhad, this is the energy crystal?" This thing feels full of energy inside, tell us about the origin of this thing! ”
