Chapter 353: I Believe in Brother Zi (1)
'Does that really exist?'
When the short sword pierced into the chest of the old fish's tail, the old fish's tail raised his hands violently, looked at the gray sky with a sad face, looked at the thick tumbling clouds, looked at the heavy rain falling from the sky, and roared: "Ancestral God!"
The young men brought by the old fish's tail, including those who were injured and fell to the ground, all struggled to kneel on the ground, raised their hands high, and bowed to the sky, to the earth, to the boundless Daze in all directions, and to all the tangible, invisible, and ineffable existences between heaven and earth.
The eyes of the older villagers were filled with the same sorrow as the old fish's tail, but it was not as strong and intense as the old fish's tail, so strong that it almost condensed into substance and flowed out of the eyes.
The old fish's tail spat blood from his mouth, and he fell to the ground with his head in the sky.
The eagle elder muttered in a low voice, 'Ancestral God Blessing', and he strode up to the other village elders of the other village, and raised the short sword in his hand.
These village elders raised their hands high and bowed to heaven and earth.
When they straightened up, the eagle squinted, his palms trembled slightly, but the short sword pierced through their chests very steadily and sharply.
"Ancestral God bless!" The warriors brought by the Eagle Elder also knelt on the ground, and they worshiped heaven and earth, and worshiped in all directions.
Some soldiers took out a huge pottery bowl, and they took blood from the chests of several village elders such as the dead old fish's tail, and sent the pottery bowl to the eagle and other village elders. The eagle elders slit their wrists and dripped blood into the clay bowl.
One by one, starting with the strongest warriors such as the bear's paw, the villagers of the two villages glued the blood from the clay bowl and drew a crude symbol shaped like a flame on their foreheads.
Chu Tian stared blankly at the silent movements of these warriors.
This is the merger of the two villages, just as they agreed before the war, the loser loses everything, and the winner takes everything!
With the old fish's tail and their blood as a sacrifice, and their lives as a glue, the two villages used such a simple and crude ritual to merge into one on this small earthen bag.
The two groups of villagers who had just been fighting each other had no estrangement at this moment, as if they had always been a whole, they tacitly took out all kinds of herbs, smashed them and treated their injured companions, and carried the injured people on a raft and sent them back to the eagle elder's village.
The Eagle Elder took most of the soldiers and drove the raft to the village of the old fishtail.
It was also a quarter of an hour up and down the water, and a flat land several miles long and wide appeared in front of it. It is surrounded by an earthen fence that rises a little above the water, and a wooden fence is erected on it.
Everything went on very naturally, and the warriors from the old fishtail village entered the village and announced that the two villages had become one. The old and weak women and children in the village were disturbed and then got busy.
Pull out all the vegetables in the field, dig out all the tubers, and carry all the stored food onto the raft.
Some of the private property that each family had, such as dried meat, animal skins, clay pots, pottery bowls, and so on, was also moved, and there were not many possessions in the village, so when it was just dark, the brigade returned to the village of the eagle elder.
The newly merged villagers were arranged to live in the thatched huts of the original villagers.
The night was so quiet that it was as if one drop of water and another drop of water were combined, and the villagers of the two villages came together so naturally that even the children did not make much noise.
At dawn the next day, all the young men and women of the newly merged village gathered in the largest hut in the middle of the village.
Chu Tian was shocked to find that in the small fire yesterday, those injured soldiers were all sitting by the fire and drinking boiling water. Even several guys with comminuted bones were able to walk without any problems.
Only then did Chu Tian understand why no one was surprised that his injuries had healed overnight!
The people in this Daze have this kind of monster-like physique, such a serious injury, and the use of such inferior herbs, all of them healed overnight and moved without hindrance.
Chu Tian's injury cost the Rat Master a top-level elixir!
And these men, they just put on some low-quality herbs!
"Monster!" "Lord Rat stood on Chu Tian's shoulder and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Evolved?" Chu Tian sat by the fire, huddled side by side with several young people such as crab claws. The original thatched hut was large enough to accommodate all the young and strong people in the village, but the number of people more than doubled out of thin air, and the thatched hut became much more crowded.
The Eagle Elder and some of the village elders came out, and they sat down on the thick animal skin mats, and after pouring a few bowls of hot water from the clay pot and taking two sips, the Eagle Elder took a fire-pounding stick and poked twice in the coals in the fire.
"Everyone is here, right? Now, let's get down to business. ”
"There is no shortage of food, before the rainy season comes, the dolls are very diligent, and the reserve of animal meat is enough for us to eat. ”
"The rainy season is four months, but you can't be so fat. In addition to making dolls, the village has to build more houses, and this matter will be led by the snake elder. By the end of the rainy season, enough houses should be built in the village. ”
An old man with a thin face took a sip of hot water and responded: "Give me two hundred dolls, plus some hands-on, more than two months is enough." ”
The eagle elder nodded: "Then, the matter of building a house, the snake elder will take care of it." This hut is still handed down from my grandfather's time. ”
All the young men raised their heads and looked at the roof.
The eagle elder sighed: "My grandfather didn't expect that the village would suddenly double in size, and the thatched huts for this discussion would not be enough, and they would have to be built." This matter is something that Mu Lao brought people to do. ”
Another village elder beside the eagle elder nodded, and silently answered the errand.
The eagle elder looked at the men who were huddled together, and a smile appeared on the old man's face: "Next, it's the most important thing." In the rainy season, hunting and gathering can be idle, but mining is not in the way. ”
The young men in the room lifted their spirits at the same time.
Mining, it was the vein of fire copper that caused a dispute between the two villages, and the two villages merged together.
Copper ore is useless to the villagers, but copper ore can be exchanged for a lot of good things, the wine is of course very good, and those weapons forged from metal make the villagers' eyes hot.
What warrior wouldn't want to have a sharp, metal weapon that could easily cut through a wooden spear?
The eagle elder chuckled, "It's not a big place, it can't accommodate too many people, and it's windy and rainy, so I'm very tired." Then change a group of people in two days, take turns to mine, and hoard all the ore dug up, and when the rainy season is over, we will exchange it for good things!"
