Chapter 237: Witch Sacrifice
The light of my meridians overflowed, preventing them from suddenly throwing the bone spear in their hands.
The two sides stalemate for about half a minute, a savage stared at me, carefully walked towards the wild boar lying on the ground, checked and found that the wild boar had already died, his mouth made a surprised sound, and his hand was very exaggerated towards a middle-aged savage, his mouth was chattering, and he didn't know what to say.
But judging from his movements, he should have shocked me to kill a wild boar with one punch.
The middle-aged savage who looked like the leader also showed an exaggerated expression of surprise on his face after hearing this, and pressed his hands to both sides, and the surrounding savages put down the bone spears in their hands one after another.
Han Lian was really right, the level of civilization of these savages in front of him was too low, although they had verbal communication, they were still using facial expressions and hand movements to express emotions, and their wisdom was not high.
I pushed her down and motioned for her to get ready to go. But at this moment, the leader of the savages took a string of bones of an unknown animal from the hands of the man next to him, and held it up with both hands, wanting to put it on for me.
I glanced at it, and the leader also wore such a bone chain around his neck, as well as several strong savages next to him, which should be a symbol of warriors.
The young savage who had just fought with the boar was covered in blood, staring at me with a very hateful gaze, and his nostrils kept blowing a heavy snort, and he looked very angry.
The bone chain that the leader gave me now should have belonged to him, and now that he wanted to give it to me, he was naturally very angry.
I hurriedly smiled and waved my hand, meaning no, but the sign language also seemed to be unusual, and the leader didn't understand it at all, so he lowered his body very low.
Han Lian was a little impatient, releasing his blood to scare away this group of savages, I also have this plan, anyway, there is no intersection, and I am not afraid of offending, but just when I was about to attack, the bone chain trembled, and several bone fragments flipped over, revealing the witch lines on it.
I hurriedly patted Han Lian's hand, calmed her down, and walked cautiously towards the leader of the savages. The leader's face is full of totems, his skin is dark red and black, and his body is very muscular. When I got closer, I smelled an animal smell on him, and I almost retched.
He was chanting something like a mantra in his mouth, and the middle finger of his left hand was moving back and forth between my eyebrows.
I didn't dare to gasp, waited patiently for him to finish chanting, and then put the bone chain around my neck.
As soon as the bone chain was put on, the wild people around cheered, their hands raised high, their knees slightly bent, and their legs jumped back and forth.
The leader raised his hands and cheered a few times, came over and pulled me, secretly glanced at Han Lian behind him, his mouth turned up, and he shook his head very dissatisfied, which meant that Han Lian was not good.
I turned around and grinned and said to Hanlian, wife, they say you are ugly.
Han Lian rolled her eyes.
The leader grinned at me, giving me the impression that in addition to smelly, it was actually quite kind.
The savages had celebrated for me for about ten minutes before it was over, and when it was getting dark, they took the torches from their backs, lit them, and held them up in a very sacred appearance, and two of them carried the boars and cheered and prepared to leave.
The leader pulled me along, apparently to invite us to their tribe.
Han Lian's brows were wrinkled into Sichuan characters, and she was already very displeased, but after I put on the bone chain, I felt that the witch patterns on it had a faint force surging into my body, which was amazing, and I wanted to go over and take a look.
The savages were very disgusted with Hanlian, and basically no one looked at her, and when they saw me go to pull Hanlian, the leader shook his head with his mouth cocked, but he didn't stop it.
Their tribe was in a canyon not far away, scattered with a number of thatched huts, in the middle of which was a black platform of about ten meters, surrounded by twelve statues, and the carving technique was so poor that only the outline of a human figure could be roughly seen.
The altar occupies half of the village, and when we arrived, there were several bonfires lit by the tribe, on which barbecued meat was set up, and the savages sang and danced around the campfire.
My arrival caused quite a stir, and they looked around me like a giant panda, because of the language barrier, Han Lian and I could only ignore it. She took out the bronze coffin with some annoyance, and slammed it on the ground, causing a group of wild people to scream and scatter in all directions.
And at this time, the leader came over, followed by two female savages more than two meters tall and dark-skinned, and after coming over, he pointed to Hanlian, shook his head, meaning no, and then pointed to the two female savages next to him, grinning and nodded.
In the primitive tribe, women are the exclusive property of the strong, and the number of women is also a symbol of a man's strength. Just looking at the female savage who was a few heads taller than me, it felt embarrassing. I kept explaining to the leader, but after a long time of gesturing, he still waved his hand, pointed at Hanlian, and pushed the two female savages towards me.
The leader gestured to the altar before leaving, then reverently pointed to the sky, gesticulating to the sky.
Before I could figure out what he meant, two wild women came up, and they didn't smell bad, and when they came, they groped my caterpillars with their hands, and tried to touch my caterpillars.
I felt like there were two mountains in front of me, and I had to put a high stool on my mouth. I just had this thought in my head, and I couldn't help but shudder.
Han Lian had already entered the bronze coffin at this time, and said angrily, Zhang Tong, if you let them touch it, don't want to touch me in the future.
Hearing that I still dared to stay there, I hurriedly pushed away the two female savages, got into the copper coffin, closed the lid and hid.
Han Lian's Soul Gathering Coffin has a very strong defense, and it can't be broken by these savages, I let out a long sigh after I went in, Han Lian looked at me ugly, and kicked me and said, Don't look at your little body, and your little gadget, can you do it?
I pouted, touched the head of the bed and turned over for a long time to find the night pearl, and after lighting it up, I didn't reply to Han Lian's words, and took off the bone chain around my neck. Han Lian was sulking, I called her a few times but didn't answer, I couldn't help but say, wife, they have different aesthetics, so naturally they think you look ugly.
She got up and kicked me again. I feel like I'm just a puffed bag, saying everything is wrong, and I'm a little unhappy in my heart.
It's not that she is unhappy to be beaten and scolded, after all, she doesn't really work hard, and this is our private space, it should be a little couple playing around, and it doesn't make much sense to divide the strength and weakness with the people closest to her. What I didn't open was, and now I can conclude that she was using me as a substitute for that man.
Hanlian noticed the change in the expression on my face, stopped losing her temper, crawled in front of me, and stared at me to see if she was angry.
I took the opportunity to kiss her on the mouth, reached out and hugged her, and the two of them rolled under the covers.
I heard her giggle a few times before I took out the bone chain and showed her the witch pattern on it.
After looking at them one by one, Han Lian said that this is an authentic witch pattern, with their level of civilization, it is impossible to have this kind of witch pattern, and on the altar outside, the statues around it are the twelve ancestral witches.
The Twelve Ancestral Witches are the supreme existence in the Wu Clan, and there should be no such thing in the backward tribes, and I suspect that there are still high-level races above.
I heard the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and asked a few curiously, Han Lian didn't want to say, turned sideways and said, sleep, I'll take a look tomorrow morning.
Advanced civilizations will have a lot of information, and if we want to find the people of the Immortal Relic Clan, we must contact them.
I took off the bone chains, took off my coat, and got under the covers.
The Soul Gathering Coffin was able to block out some of the sounds, but when the was over, there was a moaning and a crackling sound outside.
I didn't understand what it was at first, and when I thought of the things recorded in the Jade Maiden's Heart Sutra, it suddenly dawned on me.
Han Lian already knew, muttering and scolding, what a group of primitive people, except for eating, they know what to do.
I said that the population of primitive societies is a necessary condition for the prosperity of the ethnic group, and it must be strengthened.
Saying that, I hugged Hanlian from behind, held the little white rabbit, stuck it on her back and whispered, wife, I want to you too.
Han Lian's body trembled slightly, turned around and hugged me and said, "Little pervert, you are still young." Uncomfortable, right?
I nodded. Han Lian kissed me on the mouth and said softly, I'll help you rub it.
The night was hazy outside, and the night pearl in the bronze coffin shone softly, and I gently leaned into Hanlian's arms, buried my head under her neck, and bit my lip tightly.
Han Lian kissed me from time to time, and after a few minutes, I couldn't help but bite her shoulder, and my body shook violently several times......
When I woke up the next day, I opened the lid of the coffin and got out half of my head, and I saw that there were wild people all around. When he saw me come out, he immediately shouted excitedly.
Ignoring Hanlian's presence, they pulled me towards the altar.
At this time, a group of sturdy savages came up with two dozen savages dressed in obvious different clothes, and Han Lian said beside me that they were going to sacrifice and summon the gods.
I remembered the gesture that the leader gave me last night, and now combined with Han Lian's words, I understand at once that what the leader wants to express is to summon the people above to come down and then take me away.
Just a sacrifice to kill?
Han Lian nodded and said that the sacrifices of the witch clan are all blood sacrifices, usually with prisoners of war, but it is said that when there was a large-scale war in ancient times, it was necessary to activate a huge witch array, and they would also slaughter their own people.
As soon as I heard this, I wanted to stop it, but I was pulled back by Han Lian and said, this is the custom of the Wu clan, even if you save them now, they will also become sacrifices in the future, and this is only a small tribe, how much can you save?
Hanlian's words made my heart tremble, and my feet retreated.
The prisoners of war were brought all the way to the top of the square altar, then beheaded, and the heads rolled down the steps of the altar, and the people below immediately cheered, rushed up and put on sticks, and ran around with them, with a dozen people chasing and fighting behind them.
Blood poured on the altar, and dense witch patterns appeared on the dull stone.
After killing more than 20 captives, there was still a small piece of witch pattern that had not been activated, the leader's face sank, he turned back to the clansmen, and said a few impassioned words, and immediately eight people stood up.
The young savage who was robbed by me yesterday was also among them, and he kept looking at me since he came out, with a proud smile on his face, and puffed up his chest and patted it.
I didn't understand what it meant for a while, but Han Lian said that they had volunteered to be sacrificed.
When I heard this, my face turned pale, can ignorance and faith really make them give up their lives?
Han Lian said, you haven't seen a Buddhist disciple yet, and you are so stubborn that it's terrifying.
