Chapter Twenty-Three: Ancestral Medicinal Food
"My lord, in fact, we don't know much about what the monster is like, those are legends from thousands of years ago, and no one in the village has ever seen it for generations. Only our Ancestor Guardian has seen it. "Carrying Hu. Biao's Hu Mo preemptively said that he was afraid that his injured father would be tired of talking.
Seeing that his father did not object to him interjecting, he then said slowly: "First of all, it is rumored that our Tiger Roar Village used to be called Tiger Roaring Valley, and there is a demonic beast called Roaring Sky Tiger in it. Later, the Ancestor traveled everywhere and found that this place was very suitable for cultivation, so he wanted to settle here. So he fought with the Howling Sky Tiger, and it was said that the Ancestor had already broken through all the thirty-six caves at that time, but the demonic beast was also extremely powerful, and it fought with the Ancestor for three days and three nights before it was killed. In the future, there will be Tiger Roar Village and the Tiger Roar suit for adults. ”
Wang Kai believes that this legend is true, he knows that everything is possible in this world, just look at the mountain and forest monsters, such a terrifying creature is only found in this world. He couldn't wait to go back and see the Tiger Roar gear now.
I used to think it was just ordinary leather armor, so I threw it in the dark iron box and didn't care about him, but now it seems that it's a treasure, and I don't know what effect it will have when I put it on.
A group of people carried Wang Kai and Hu Kai. Biao, walking slowly in the woods, when I went back, there were a lot of prey, and two more wounded, so it was not as light as when I came, but everyone was happier than when I came.
Seeing the corpse of the demon wolf in the mountains and forests being tied up and carried by the five flowers, everyone's hearts were happy. They know that the whole body of the beast is a treasure, eating animal meat can increase strength and enhance the body, bones can be used in medicine, animal skins can be made into leather armor, and the most precious thing is essence blood, which is a holy product for martial cultivators to increase their cultivation. The village hasn't hunted a beast for hundreds of years, so can you not be happy?
Wang Kai and the others returned to the village, and it was already approaching dusk. The old village chief, Xiao Shuyao, and a group of women and children were all waiting at the head of the village, and they were a little worried about the hunters, because they had not come back so late before.
When I saw Wang Kai and Hu. Biao was carried by someone, and everyone was shocked. Only then did they know that they had encountered a fierce beast, and listening to the chatters of the hunters, everyone understood what was going on, and they were surprised and delighted, and secretly admired their guardian even more.
Know Wang Kai and Hu. Biao was nothing serious, and now the village was lively again, and the women and children who had been waiting for a long time cheered, and the anxiety and fear in their hearts had disappeared, and they happily helped to take the prey.
Although some people were injured in this hunt, it was very successful on the whole, and the twenty or so hunters had prey on their backs, and they were all large beasts, there were five forest goats that were rare before, and there were many other wild boars, lynxas, cheetahs, and elk......
The old people in the village were even more excited, their faces were flushed, and some of their eyes were already full of tears. Fierce beasts, how many years have hated and thought. Hate, they are ferocious and powerful. What I think about is that the treasure of that body, the martial arts cultivation in the village has become weaker and weaker over the years, and what is missing is the blood and bones of the fierce beasts into medicine to improve their cultivation.
"Everyone has taken the lead and peeled the prey that should be peeled, and the prey that is not tasty is used to make bacon." The old village chief skillfully commanded the villagers, and then ordered the mountain forest demon wolf to be carried to the ancestral hall, and several old people also followed excitedly behind him.
Wang Kai had already been carried back to the old village chief's house early to recuperate, in fact, he was not in a big problem now, the wounds on his body had already stuttered, and now he was just a little weak, Xiao Shuyao was carefully taking care of him on the side.
Wang Kai had already fallen asleep in a daze, and he didn't know how long it took for Xiao Shuyao to wake him up, looking out the window and it was already dark. Some didn't understand what to call Xiao Shuyao so late looking at Xiao Shuyao.
Xiao Shuyao smiled and said to Wang Kai: "Big brother, everyone in the village is waiting for you at the altar." ”
"What are you doing at the altar in the middle of the night?" Wang Kai didn't wake up a little, and his face was full of doubts.
"It was the middle of the night, and it was just dark now...... Xiao Shuyao looked at Wang Kai funny, and asked someone to help him out of bed, and then carried him to the altar with a rattan chair. Originally, Wang Kai wanted to go by himself, but he couldn't screw her, so he could only obediently and be at her mercy.
The square of the altar was full of kneeling people, even on the stairs around it. The altar is full of offerings, including animal meat, cakes, and the most eye-catching offering in the middle is the head of the demon wolf of the mountain forest.
The old village chief began to lead all the villagers to pray together, asking for the protection of the heavens and their ancestors, and the torches and bonfires ignited this solemn sacrifice process, and Wang Kai was also arranged to observe below, although he was asked not to kneel, but his heart was already respected by this solemn and supernatural ceremony.
"To the first bowl of lean meat......" shouted the old village chief, who knelt at the front.
I saw Gu Qing come to the edge of the three-legged big ding, walked on the platform next to the big ding, hooked the iron cover on the big ding with a thick stick hook, and lifted it hard, the mouth of the ding was opened, and suddenly the smell of meat and medicine in the ding came to the face, and suddenly floated over the entire altar. Gu Qing used a huge soup spoon to scoop a large pot of broth and sent it to the altar, and everyone began to kneel and pray again.
Twenty minutes later, the sacrifice was over, and the villagers' faces were filled with joy again. But everyone still didn't move around, and stood quietly in place.
After hundreds of years of dreams, today the villagers are finally seeing it come true. It is described in the ancestral teachings that when a powerful beast is hunted, the village will do a grand sacrifice. One is to be grateful to God, the second is to worship ancestors, and the third is to eat fierce beast medicinal food.
This fierce beast medicinal diet is made by combining fierce meat, fierce bones and one hundred and eighteen kinds of spiritual herbs stewed, and ordinary people eat it to prolong their life and cultivate martial arts, which is of great help to their cultivation. This is also the prescription left by the ancestors to improve the physique of the villagers, but they never expected that the martial cultivators in the village are getting weaker and weaker, and they are not the opponents of the fierce beasts at all. The spirit grass elixir has been picked a lot every year, but there is no main medicine beast, and this is hundreds of years.
"My lord, you have to take medicine and diet first, which will be of great help to your excessive blood loss and cultivation just now." The old village chief asked someone to scoop a large plate of fierce beast medicinal food and sent it to Wang Kaikang's table.
Smelling the tempting aroma of meat and medicine, Wang Kai's appetite was like a tide, and he couldn't help but pick up the soup spoon and eat it. As soon as the soup meat was delicious, Wang Kai couldn't stop taking one bite after another, and a warm current swam all over his body. The more you eat, the stronger the warm current, when Wang Kai finished eating a large pot of medicinal food, his body was like being steamed in a steamer, the heat was about to explode, and the muscles, bones, and skin were as uncomfortable as being bitten by tens of thousands of ants.
Wang Kai hurriedly sat down and exercised his skills, channeling the spiritual energy in his body to temper his body. What he feels now is pain and happiness.
There were already many people on the altar who were leading the medicinal diet, and after eating it, they sat cross-legged on the ground with painful faces and persisted. Those villagers who were still queuing up were looking forward to it and a little scared after seeing it.
