Chapter 2 There are also here when it's dark, don't go out
In the village.
It was bustling and lively, with children frolicking and women and children in the village busy.
More than a dozen figures stood in front of the stone monument, their bodies were muscular, their skin was bronzed, all of them were middle-aged, they were the most powerful men in the village, they were good at hunting and killing.
Whenever the Dragon King Festival is held, the strongest man in the village is asked to take action to hunt the most abundant food.
"We're ready to go, where are those little guys?"
A middle-aged man with eyes like tiger pupils and a resolute face smiled.
"Uncle Zhuang, we are all going to be adults, and we will be adults immediately after the coming-of-age ceremony, don't call us little guys."
Immediately, several young figures approached, all thirteen-year-olds, and one of them muttered dissatisfied.
Hearing this, Uncle Zhuang laughed, rubbed Dao Tianjun's hair desperately, messed like a chicken nest, and looked at the teenagers, "As long as the coming-of-age ceremony is not over, you are a little guy in my eyes." ”
Dao Tianjun was speechless, he was in the figure of the young man, he was relatively outstanding, handsome.
According to Dao Tianjun, I am the most handsome among my peers, and it is difficult to be eye-catching, helpless.
At this moment, Dao Tianjun was wearing a beast skin coat, and there was a pure stone broadsword behind his back.
It is the heirloom of his family, it is said that it was picked up by his grandfather in the mountains by chance, heavy and thick, the knife is three feet long, the knife surface is two palms wide, the whole body is a stone polished, weighing three hundred and fifty pounds, the blade is already blunt.
This is a weapon that Dao Tianjun's father asked him to bring, and according to his family's tradition, this knife must be used for hunting in all coming-of-age ceremonies.
"Sacrifice together."
An old voice sounded, full of vigor and vicissitudes.
The village chief bows to the stone monument standing in the middle of the village.
"Ten years have come, and the pious dragon prince people are willing to go out to hunt the most abundant prey......"
At this moment, the old people in the village were all coming, and they walked towards the dozen or so prime of men with armor in their hands.
Everyone was solemn, and more than a dozen middle-aged people in the village took the armor and put it on their bodies, and worshiped the dragon king.
Dao Tianjun and Ergou and the other three teenagers also stepped forward.
Looking at the stele, you can feel an overwhelming atmosphere of vicissitudes, as if people have returned to the oldest era, Ru Mao drinks blood, Suiren's bricks and wood make fire, that kind of wilderness, fierce beasts are rampant, and fairy beasts compete for hegemony.
Feel the breath every time.
Dao Tianjun is full of ripples.
This stele can be said to be ordinary, but it can also be said to be extraordinary.
As early as after coming to this world, the most common sentence Dao Tianjun heard was "It's dark, don't go out." ”
When he first heard this kind of words, he was stunned, because he remembered the content of the first chapter of a novel that he chased before crossing over, and there was also a place where you should not go out when it was dark?
However, this is not the case.
Don't go out when it's dark doesn't mean that there's darkness outside, mysterious demons.
The reason why I say this sentence is because the ferocious beasts in the wasteland are rampant, and there are even ancient relics, which are extremely terrifying, and there is no safe place, only the village where the dragon monument stands is truly safe, all because of the existence of the stone monument.
The stele sheltered the people of the wasteland, deterred the fierce beasts, and even the primeval relics did not dare to whisker, and it was very powerful.
"It's similar to the great wilderness of the old village."
Dao Tianjun was unexpected, Dao.
This is the extraordinary nature of the stele, and the reason why it is ordinary is because Dao Tianjun once secretly touched the stele and wanted to investigate its extraordinary, after all, as a traverser, he knew that this kind of strange thing was definitely not ordinary.
Thinking in his heart, when Dao Tianjun followed the young man to salute, the corner of his eye skimmed to the stone tablet.
At the very bottom of the stele is a scratch on the cover of a fingernail.
That was Dao Tianjun's battle record one night, chiseled out with a stone pickaxe.
The corners of Dao Tianjun's mouth twitched slightly, if this trace was discovered, he would definitely be miserable The cliff was sprayed with blood by the old man in the village, and it is estimated that he will be criticized within half a year.
After that, Dao Tianjun and the other teenagers were ready to set off after completing the tedious rituals.
This is a worship that the whole village has to hold every time they hunt, but this time it is especially important to prepare for the dragon king festival.
Among them, it is also the old people in the village who pray for the five teenagers who went out, they are old, and they happen to go out hunting with the dragon king festival hunting team, according to the village old man, they were born at the time of the dragon king sacrifice, but they are the godsons of the dragon king, belonging to special people.
"Let's go."
Uncle Zhuang shouted loudly, and his voice was as loud as thunder.
……
Mountains and forests dozens of miles away from the village.
Ancient trees stand in the forest, green trees are shady, ancient vines are coiled between the branches and trees, the breeze blows, the wild breath enters the heart and nose, and you can hear the roar of the beast like thunder shooting down between the thousands of mountains and forests in the distance, and the mountain is turbulent.
Unconsciously, Dao Tianjun and his party walked through this area.
It was fast, and it was close to noon.
I saw that there was more or less prey on everyone, and even further away they hid some of the dead animal heads.
"That's ......"
Ergou exclaimed, his pupils shrinking suddenly.
Dao Tianjun followed the direction that the second dog was looking at, and his pupils also contracted.
A potholed land, more than ten meters in diameter, it is not low-lying terrain at all, it is the footprints of a fierce beast, it is too huge, one foot to step on such footprints, you can fully imagine what a huge wild ancient beast it is.
"Can you tell what kind of ancient beast it is?"
The middle-aged man in the village looked nervous, and he bent down to investigate.
Dao Tianjun and Ergou also came over, and this was the first time they had close contact with this kind of thing.
Uncle Zhuang shook his head and frowned, "I don't know, it's hard to determine, but judging by the breath remaining in the mountains and forests, the only thing that is certain is that this fierce beast is not something we can deal with, even if the whole village comes, there will be no corpse." ”
A deep voice sounded, with an oppressive suffocating sound.
"Is it an ancient relic?"
Suddenly, Ergou's father spoke.
Listening to this voice, many people's faces changed drastically.
The primeval relics, the desolate beasts of the Terrans of the Wasteland, are extremely terrifying, and that kind of creature is not something that ordinary people can compete with, only the most powerful tribe has the ability to resist.
"I can't rule out this possibility, we encountered many beast corpses along the way, and it is likely that it did it." Uncle Zhuang pointed to the huge footprints under his feet, and then he looked at the sky, "Go three miles further, and we will go back after shooting some more prey." ”
Hearing this, everyone was bowed.
Dao Tianjun glanced at the footprints and walked silently into the distance.
Time flies, and soon everyone successfully hunted the prey, and even Dao Tianjun shot to hunt an ancient bear in the secret realm of the sea.
Dao Tianjun looked at the falling object under his feet, holding the family heirloom stone knife in his hand, and there was no joy or sadness on his face.
"Boom!!"
The mountains and forests shook suddenly, the vigorous ancient trees swayed, the leaves rustled, and the pebbles on the surface were beating.
The eardrum tingled, and a huge sound wave could be heard from afar, which was the roar of several ancient beasts, the roar was like thunder falling from nine heavens, the dust and smoke in the sky, and the boulder rolled down from the mountainside, like the scene of a volcanic eruption.
"Roar!"
Among the several beast roars, a sonorous beast roar like a stone strike was the most ear-catching, as if the heavenly wrath was beating the stone drum, rumbling and rippling.
Looking at such a scene, the faces of the prime of life changed drastically.
Uncle Zhuang's tiger eyes flickered, "Ancient relics." ”
The last thing you want to see has finally happened, and that is an ancient relic fighting not far away, fighting with many ancient beasts in the most primitive law of the jungle......
