Of course, the fact that the whole family found the altar sacrifice of the god of the forest, and that Mary ate a fruit from the gods, and that she went from six months of pregnancy to imminent childbirth, were also truthfully explained to the elders.

The elders and the witch doctors were angry and sad when they heard what had happened, and they also sighed for the faithful Savior of Bath, and all the people were equally angry.

When the young warriors heard Shet's bad behavior, they shouted angrily at the Panser tribe, shouting that this was war, and this was a naked challenge to the Wolf tribe.

Everyone was deeply moved by the mother's feat of saving the child, and many women in the clan who knew the mother well wept loudly, and rushed to kneel next to the mother's body and wiped the mud stains from the mother's body with their own hands.

But when the elders and witch doctors heard Red tell him that he had found the altar of the god of the forest, they exclaimed.

In particular, Mary received the fruit of God's gift, and even made these elders and witch doctors kneel together, face the west, and bow down.

They thought that it was the god of the forest who was looking after their Wolf tribe, especially that Mary had eaten the fruit of the gods, and that she was about to give birth immediately, which was a miracle, and they thought that Mary was about to give birth to the son of God.

At first, Rhett was quite proud to see the elders so excited, but when he heard about the son of God, he felt that something was wrong, obviously he was the son of Lao Tzu, how did he become the son of God?

However, the hierarchical rules among the tribes are still very strict, and the elders and witch doctors have a high status that the patriarch does not have, and their words can decide the fate of the entire tribe.

While the elders and the witch doctor were still whispering about what the Son of God, who had never heard of, would bring to the tribe, and all the people around her were whispering, Mary began to moan loudly.

After three days on the road, Mary finally couldn't bear it anymore, and she felt that she was about to give birth.

Mary's movement immediately shattered the awkward atmosphere, yes, very awkward.

Everyone was outside the camp, and the mother's body was still lying on the ground, and everything was so incongruous.

Only then did the elders and the witch doctor return to normalcy and immediately make reasonable arrangements.

The witch doctor took Mary to her house, where she was to deliver Mary herself.

The elders told Red to pick up his mother's body and follow them to the assembly square in the center of the camp, where they had to perform a funeral ceremony for her before she could be buried in the tribal cemetery.

As for Bass, the elders also arranged for the witch doctor's apprentice to take care of it, and it saved the master, the patriarch of the Wolf tribe, the hero of the entire tribe.

Even if it is seriously injured, it may no longer be able to hunt and fight for its tribe in the future, and it will be well cared for until the end of its life, which is the reward it deserves.

It was the first time Mary had entered the witch doctor's room, and in normal times, only warriors who had been wounded in tribal battles were allowed to enter the witch doctor's room and be treated by the witch doctor.

Like all the family rooms in the tribe, it was a circular room with a pointed roof covered with animal skins and a wide foliage to prevent rainwater from dripping in.

The room has only a door, no windows, so it looks very dark, and there is a fire pit in the middle of the room, in which firewood is burning, which brings a lot of light to the room.

The walls were surrounded by many hides and skulls of wild beasts, some strange and terrifying, and Mary did not dare to look at them.

In the deepest part of the room, apart from the witch doctor's bed, there were several shelves made of wooden planks, filled with all kinds of utensils, bottles and jars.

These bottles and jars should have been fired by the witch doctor himself with clay, and this craft is only known to the witch doctor in the entire tribe, and it is said that it will only be passed on to the next witch doctor.

The witch doctor is a woman who wears a mask on her face, and apart from a few elders, even the patriarch Red doesn't know her real age.

The witch doctor is the most important member of the tribe, they never pass on the female to the male, each generation of the witch doctor will take several apprentices, and then designate one of them to inherit all her abilities before dying.

Yes, witch doctors have some abilities that ordinary people don't have, such as being able to predict the future to a limited extent, and being able to heal some injuries and illnesses that are difficult to treat.

Anyway, the witch doctor has her own special set of inheritance, and she has her own way of choosing the right heir to be an apprentice in the tribe.

However, the number of witch doctors and her disciples in each generation was very small, sometimes there were three or four disciples, and sometimes there was only one suitable successor.

According to the rules of the witch doctor, if there are several apprentices at the same time, then except for the one who is selected as the witch doctor, everyone else is her assistant, and can also act as a reserve witch doctor, after all, sometimes you may not even be able to receive a suitable apprentice!

However, everyone in the tribe is proud of being chosen as an apprentice by the witch doctor, and no one will refuse this honor.

The witch doctor spread a huge black bear skin on the ground next to the fire pit, and I don't know which generation of ancestors this is the great achievement, and there is no such a big black bear on the grassland now.

The witch doctor made Mary lie flat on a black bearskin, and she walked over to the shelves, tinkered with it for a long time, and finally brought her a bowl of strange-tasting soup for Mary to drink.

Mary looked at the bowl of black, sticky soup, and there was something like a leaf floating in it, which was hard to swallow.

She looked at the witch doctor with a begging gaze, but unfortunately the witch doctor wore a traditional mask on his face, and you could not see her joys and sorrows.

The witch doctor said to Mary in a very calm tone, "Drink it, Mary, it will help you relieve the pain of childbirth, drink it!"

Mary had no choice, and everyone in the tribe believed in the witch doctor's words, and she was no exception.

Mary frowned, resisted the strange smell, and gulped down the bowl of soup.

Not only did the soup smell strange, but it tasted so strange in your mouth, like the rotten leaves of a rotten tree in the jungle that had no sunlight and were moldy.

Mary felt that the soup was hot and hot down the esophagus into her stomach, and as a pregnant woman, she already had a strong feeling of vomiting, and the vomiting sensation became more and more intense when this bowl of unknown things went down.

The witch doctor kicked a wooden barrel to her side, "If you want to vomit, you can vomit in this, but don't vomit on my bearskin, this is a family heirloom of the Wolf clan!"

The witch doctor got up and went to the fire pit to boil a basin of hot water, and while boiling the water, she said, "At least twenty patriarchs of the Wolf tribe have been delivered on this black bear skin, and I won't let her lie down if you are an ordinary person!"

However, at this time, Mary was already in a trance, maybe it was the bowl of soup, and she couldn't hear what the witch doctor was saying.

The witch doctor boiled the hot water and prepared a dagger, which was not made of the stone commonly used by the tribe, but was black, and the sharp edge reflected the cold light in the firelight.

"Mary, you should give birth to the child as hard as you can!" the witch doctor whispered softly in Mary's ear.
