Chapter 265 [Sacrifice of the Ancestors]
Hudson, the elder of the three, spoke first: "We came to study the meaning of Tiahuanaco's existence, and we accidentally found such an ancient clay pot when we passed by the foot of the mountain.
However, judging from the color, this clay pot has existed for no more than ten years, so I think there are a large number of ancestors here, and they still maintain the traditional craftsmanship to make daily necessities, so I took my students to take a look.
I didn't expect to meet the scene of their sacrifice, Giles suggested that we take some pictures and go back, which will definitely shock the world! ”
After Hudson finished speaking, he looked at Giles with an approving face, which greatly satisfied Giles's vanity, but said "modestly": "No, no, no, professor, this is all taught by you with great knowledge!" ”
Although this guy doesn't have a good personality, he speaks at a very high level, and he praises both himself and Professor Hudson in an understatement, and he is very modest.
Hu Xiaodao didn't care about this person's personality, but it could be seen that this kid was tall, and he must be a good hand at making strength.
"Dear professors and the two of you, I believe that our next purpose is the same, but since you are the authority in this area, why don't we go together and see how the ancestors worshiped their ancestors and buried the deceased?"
"I agree!" As soon as Hu Xiaodao finished speaking, Jennifer couldn't wait for the others to speak, she couldn't wait to agree, on the one hand, Hu Xiaodao's unique temperament attracted her, and on the other hand, no matter who these three people were, they would not veto this proposal.
"Wait!" Professor Hudson stretched out his palm, and the three people, including Hu Xiaodao, looked at him, waiting for him to speak.
"That's right, my Huaguo friend, you also know that we are engaged in learning, but I think these ancestors don't seem to be willing to accept the prying eyes of foreigners at all, so I want to hire you as a team leader, I don't know what you think?" After Hudson finished speaking, he quietly looked at Hu Xiaodao, waiting for his reply.
In order to show his superiority, Giles fiddled with the live broadcaster above Hu Xiaodao's head and said, "Yo, there is also a head-mounted camera, take out the chip and I'll see what you shoot." ”
As soon as his fingers touched Hu Xiaodao's head, Hu Xiaodao grabbed his index finger and turned his hand to clasp it, and Giles suddenly wanted to scream.
However, Hu Xiaodao's eyes were quick, and he put the handle of the knife into his mouth and said: "First, we Chinese people don't like others to touch their heads, you have to remember this!" Second, if you scream, then a jungle battle royale is definitely going to be staged today! ”
Slowly pulling out the handle of the knife in Giles's mouth, and letting go of the fingers he was grasping, Hu Xiaodao ignored Giles and said to the professor: "I can cooperate with you for the time being, but all actions must be under my command!" Otherwise, I will not be responsible for the safety of my life! ”
"Yes! But Mr. Hu, I don't want a violent incident like the one just now, after all, Giles doesn't understand your customs and habits, but your means of solving the problem are too violent! Hudson pushed his glasses.
This kind of old pedant is very old-fashioned, although he is very dissatisfied with Giles's approach, but he also feels ridiculous to Hu Xiaodao's violent reply.
"Professor, you see, I have tried my best to protect you and Jennifer along the way, believe me, I can continue, I don't need this yellow pig at all!" Although Giles's fingers still ached faintly, it seemed that the scar had just healed and forgotten the pain.
"Buzz!"
As soon as Giles finished speaking, the back of the knife appeared under his neck, and he didn't understand what was going on.
Hu Xiaodao's speed of the knife can be described as unbelievable in the eyes of the three of them.
"Once again, I warn you, we have a saying in China that "nothing more than three"! If this happens again, I don't recommend you to suffer a little. Coldly retracting the back of the knife, Hu Xiaodao beckoned, meaning to follow him.
Perhaps impressed by Hu Xiaodao's strong strength, Giles didn't have a hard mouth this time, but just took out the machete on his waist and honestly opened the way with Hu Xiaodao.
And although Jennifer was supporting Professor Hudson, her eyes never left Hu Xiaodao's figure at all.
In fact, the priest's chant could always be heard in the col where they stood, and now the rhythm of the notes quickened, and it seemed that they had reached the end.
The four of them quickened their pace, especially Hudson, who felt that he could walk fast without Jennifer's support, not at all like an elderly man in his sixties.
Hu Xiaodao in front raised his right hand and made a forbidden finger, and the three people behind him stopped, Giles took the telescope to Professor Hudson, but he beckoned to Jennifer, meaning that she came to his side, good sight!
As Jennifer crouched, Hu Xiaodao inadvertently spotted Giles asking greedily about Jennifer's hair.
At this time, Hu Xiaodao understood why Giles was hostile to him, it turned out that this kid liked Jennifer!
With a slight smile, Hu Xiaodao, who withdrew his gaze, intently took the binoculars and began to look - the funeral had begun.
First of all, hundreds of ancestors knelt on the ground in two rows, and the sixteen people who originally carried the coffin opened the outer coffin and carried out the exquisite pure black coffin inside, the coffin itself was carved with mountain peaks and cloud patterns, the water waves below, and various fierce beasts in the middle.
Hudson looked at it and whispered some simple common sense, such as the beast that Hu Xiaodao heard was killed by the deceased before his death, and after carving it, he would not look so humble in the world of the undead, and he would be regarded as a warrior in front of his ancestors.
Hu Xiaodao thinks that this is similar to the sacrificial text written by ancient Huaguo, or there are merits behind the tombstone, and the general will have a battle record engraved on it after his death. It seems that people all over the world take this very seriously.
At this time, after the coffin was out of the coffin, the sixteen ancestors who carried the coffin put the coffin in the hands of those who knelt on the ground face to face, and these ancestors slowly passed the coffin forward, like a conveyor belt, but everyone seemed to have exerted enough strength, and it was certain that the coffin was certainly not wood, and even Professor Hudson could not say what material.
The sixteen ancestors who carried the coffin did not kneel on the ground, but followed the coffin to move slowly, and their tall bodies were covered with strong lumpy muscles, and their expressions were solemn!
At this time, the black coffin had been passed to the hands of the last group of people, and the priest-like people roared loudly in the ancient language, and the sixteen ancestors who carried the coffin immediately stepped forward and began to tie the coffin with the prepared ropes.
"It's going to be buried!" Without Hudson explaining, the other three understood what they were doing.
The sixteen ancestors who carried the coffin moved quickly, and after a while, an older man raised his hand to signal that it had been tied, and then the priest nodded and began to take out a fan and wave it a few times.
