Chapter 2: Tribal Leaders × Ancient Priests 1
In the fog, there is no debate between the West and the East.
Li Buyu found that the little white wolf in his sleeve was struggling to come out, and he whined in a panic, and hurriedly released it and held it in his arms.
Born like a game, the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear.
What Li Buyu saw was a thick or faint white mist, and the little white wolf only felt that the past was vivid, surrounded by five whirlpools, which quickly flashed the calamities they had experienced in the mortal world - Li Buyi's lust tribulation, Bai Lianhua's life and death tribulation.
"Whew......"
The little white wolf broke free from Li Buyi's arms and fell heavily, it snorted, glanced back at Li Buyu, and ran to the northwest without hesitation. Li Buyu realized it and followed closely.
He couldn't see what was in front of him, and felt a strong irresistible suction pulling him somewhere, in addition to the fear of the unknown, Li Buyu was more worried about the little white wolf.
Caught in the whirlpool, he only felt a wave of dizziness and a splitting headache. When I woke up again, I had returned to the first calamity.
And the white wolf kept rushing outside the whirlpool, but he couldn't enter the door, and it took a moment to react, looking up at the sky with half-squinted eyes.
In this life, he was an ancient priest and tribal leader.
In ancient times, countless tribes, large and small, were scattered all over the continent and lived a group life of gathering and hunting. And in the depths of the grassland, the wolf tribe has lived for generations, respecting the strong and believing the wolf. The strongest are the tribal leaders who rule over their bodies, while those who are recognized by the wolf king are the priests who can rule over their souls.
In the spring of that year, the wind and rain were sudden, and the wolf king fell asleep.
After October, auspicious clouds fell from the sky, and all wolves shouted.
"Son of the Wolf!"
"Son of the Wolf!"
"Son of the Wolf!"
......
All four hundred and twenty-one members of the Shang Wolf tribe knelt under the altar, kneeling to the statue of the Wolf King in the center of the altar, as well as the newborn son of the wolf, more precisely, the new High Priest.
The wolf king created them, and he will bless them and grant them good weather and peace. They bow down to gods, totems, and beliefs.
Only the tribal leader Sheng Jie's eyes flashed with fierceness, and he quickly hid it. Hmph, he is not convinced, he led his people to cultivate and hunt, expand the territory, and brought countless food and land to the tribe, but he still can't compare to the position of a priest. Why......
After Yuro was born, everything was going to be better and stronger, and they even felt that one day, they would own the whole prairie.
Twelve years later, however, the heavens were plagued by calamities, winds and snow, and the weather froze, and their crops were frozen to death, and their livestock were frostbitten and died. They are in trouble, hungry and cold, and unable to survive. The twelve-year-old High Priest led them south to find a new settlement, following the guidance of the Wolf King.
After three years of trekking, they finally settled next to the Dahua tribe, and only two hundred young people were left among the five hundred tribesmen, and the stored food was also eaten. They are tired, sleepy, and hungry, but their unconditional trust and obedience to the wolf king and their yearning for a new life keep them motivated.
At the same time, the help of the Dahua tribe also allowed them to survive and survive. The Dahua tribe provided them with enough food and livestock for their cubs, and at first, they were grateful, and they would also give them a portion of the food they gathered and the wild animals they hunted every day. I don't know when it began, some people gradually became unwilling, why, they struggled to survive in the grassland, and tried their best to get only a pitiful amount of food, while some people lived in peace on the plains, and got countless food and fur without difficulty.
Something has changed completely.
The tribes of the steppes saw the beauty of the plains, the land was fertile, the food was abundant, and even the mild weather made them like it, if ...... Appropriate to one's own use...... After all, they have the blood of the grassland in their bones, and the mark of the wolf clan engraved in their souls.
The two tribes seem to be friendly on the surface, but the Dahua tribe doesn't know that they feed tigers with their bodies and raise a group of jackals, tigers and leopards, maybe someone knows, but he doesn't say it, and he enjoys it.
Four years later, the Shangwolf tribe, which has grown and grown, thinks that they have the ability to fight, and they do have this strength, and when the Dahua tribe is in turmoil, they take the opportunity to sneak attack and capture the leader of the Dahua tribe, Lian Xu, and the Dahua tribe has no leader and has suffered heavy casualties. They plundered wealth, enslaved their clansmen, and those who once reached out to help, those who communicated with each other on an equal footing, and those who lived together are now being trampled under their feet, becoming prisoners and slaves of the country.
This is the first step of the high priest to expand the territory and kill all directions, their nature and wolf nature have been completely awakened, the Dahua tribe can not satisfy their ambitions, they want more, more food, more slaves, more wealth.
The darker the sky, the darker the earth, the cold moon shines on the bones, and the cold wind blows the blood.
Ten years later, the Shang Wolf tribe stepped on the road paved with white bones and blue blood, defeated all known tribes step by step, and became the "slave owner" of the entire continent. And the high priest Yu Lang was elected as the co-head of the tribe, above all people, the supreme in the world, he could not only control the souls of all people, but also control their bodies.
On this day, the coronation ceremony of the co-lord is over, and Yuro is dressed in a crown carved in stone that glows, and he wears an animal skin dress decorated with countless jewels that symbolizes the status of the tribal co-leader, and slowly enters the cave where Huayang is imprisoned with a scepter encrusted with precious stones. While walking, the jewels collided, and Ding Ling made a noise.
The cave was dark and filled with a disgusting foul smell, except for the faint light of the torches at the entrance of the cave and the fresh air from the half-open door.
Huayang heard the sound and looked up at Yulang who was standing against the light, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and his voice was hoarse, like the collision of gravel and clods of soil, "You're here." ”
Yu Lang's eyes were half-squinted, and through the faint light, he could clearly see the ragged Huayang sitting on the stone, because he had not seen the light of day for a long time, his complexion was pale, his face was bloodless, and he was skinny, however, he still smiled with his eyebrows and eyes, and his expression was bright, and he couldn't tell whether he was really happy or really ironic.
Yuro only felt a palpitation, as if someone was holding his heart tightly, and he was on the verge of pinching and exploding. He took a deep breath for a long time before he said forbearingly, "Huayang, do you see, no, you are my imprisoned slave, and you can't see the new world I created." However, I can tell you personally that I have become the co-leader of the tribe, and I am here today to take you out to see the country I have conquered. ”
"Well, it's good if you're happy. ”
Huayang responded with a low smile, didn't get up, and still sat in peace and order, in fact, he hadn't walked out of this cave for a long, long time, and if he thought about it, it had been ten years.
Yuro choked on him, frowned in displeasure, clenched his hands into fists, and suddenly thought of something, he laughed, walked quickly in front of him, pulled him up roughly, and took his hand out strongly.
"Huayang, if you say something that makes me happy, I will take you away, take you to the grassland to ride horses and herd sheep, take you to the woods to pick wild fruits, take you to the river to see the stars, and take you back to the Dahua tribe to see the beautiful flowers...... Just say, okay?"
Outside the cave, a red sun slowly rose, bringing light and heat, dispelling all the darkness and cold of the world.
"Okay, Yuro, you have to live well and be happy forever. ”
The morning star, gradually dimming, until it lost all its brilliance, slid silently across the sky, and did not know where it fell.
"Huayang!"
Although Yulang was watching the sunrise, he had been secretly paying attention to Huayang, and when he saw him suddenly fall, he was horrified, and he exclaimed, holding his gradually cooler body tightly.
......
Li Buyu still felt dizzy, but he regretted not being at the beginning, and he really wanted to rush over and slap his past self to death, snap ...... You deserve it!
Thankfully, he's back.
Li Buyu looked at his small body, tightened his simple clothes made of animal fur, covered his mouth with both hands, sighed, and got a moment of warmth.
It's cold.
"Knock knock...... Knock knock knock ......"
Li Buyu got up and replied, "I'm here."
"High priest, the chief wants you to come over. ”
When Li Buyu heard this, he lifted the curtain of hay hanging at the entrance of the cave to protect him from the wind and cold, and a gust of wind and snow hit, and the cold wind swept his bare skin like a knife, and he shivered for a moment, completely feeling the deep malice of this winter, and stomped his feet depressedly, and followed the young man to the chief's cave.
Sheng Jie, the leader of the tribe, nodded and asked him to sit by the fire to warm up.
Sancheng, who was in charge of raising livestock, saw him coming, and hurriedly told him the bad news, "High priest, this morning, I found that more than half of the stone pigs, cattle and sheep we raised in captivity were killed and wounded, and only two stone pigs, three sheep and one cow remained. ”
The young man next to him followed, "Are we going to be unable to live?"
"Last night, the wolf king fell asleep and gave an oracle, and he could live when he moved south. ”
Li Buyu paused, and said this ambiguous sentence, which made people confused, and they were stunned for a moment, still hesitating.
Sheng Jie first broke the peace, "High Priest, we have lived here for generations, how can we be willing to leave? What's more, we have cold wind and snow here, and other places may be colder. ”
The other two chimed in.
Li Buyu nodded, "Survive or wait for death, let the wolf king decide." ”
- Yes, the wolf king will protect them!
At that moment, they braved the wind and snow to go to the altar, and Li Buyi held the priest's scepter around the statue of the wolf king, which was a stone scepter, the handle of the scepter was carved with a wolf totem, and it was also inlaid with a dark green gem.
Suddenly, he threw the scepter into the air, and the scepter spared a few circles and fell to the ground with a "thud", and the authority was directed straight to the square.
The wolf king gave them directions.
The wolf god they believed in gave them the answer - they could live if they moved south.
