Chapter 5: Totemic Prophecy
Si Rui walked towards the totem, an old man with his back to the entrance of the Holy Land Cave, facing the totem, with long gray hair that reached his feet and a wide brown animal skin on his body, giving people a sense of profound and long-lasting heaviness.
Si Rui stood three meters away from the old man, looked at the old man and called out respectfully, "High Priest Lauren"
"You are here" The high priest made a vicissitudes of life, and did not turn around, but kept looking at the totem~
"It's been ~ three thousand years, and the beast god has not given any foreshadowing to our people."
The high priest turned around, and looked at Si Rui with a glint in his deep eyes, "Yesterday, the totem lit up, and the Lord Beast God finally came to our clan again to herald our clan" The slightly trembling voice could not hide the excitement of the high priest.
Si Rui's expression was very serious, "Is something going to happen to the tribe?"
The high priest calmed down his excitement "Yes, there will be a big change in our tribe, a huge change" Si Rui's face became more serious, looked at Si Rui and said: "Don't be nervous, it's not a bad thing, it's a good thing, if this time the tribe is really as prophesied, our tribe will be even stronger, so powerful that it will become an insurmountable existence on the Cangli Continent" The high priest's face became more and more proud, as if it would soon be the strongest tribe~
"However, this opportunity also has a potential crisis, which will bring waves to the development of the tribe," the high priest said with some concern~
"Is there a potential danger to the tribe?" asked Si Rui
"No, it's a danger to the females who bring development to the tribe, is there a strange female in the tribe?"
"Yes, one is a female that my mother picked up, and the other is a female we rescued from the Forest of Cloud and Ink, High Priest, which female can make a difference in the tribe?"
"There are actually two, the totem does not indicate what kind of female it is, but it must be one of them, you observe it secretly, don't tell the clan about it yet, but be sure to protect them. The high priest admonished
"I know, if something informs me, I'll go back first" Si Rui's tone was a little perfunctory, what can a female do, the strength of the tribe ultimately has to be defended by a male orc.
The high priest was aware of Si Rui's thoughts, and shook his head, "It seems that there are bound to be twists and turns"~
......
When Yun Mo'er and Al return to the tribe, Yun Mo'er hurriedly says goodbye to Al and walks to Roy's cave.
Yun Mo'er wondered if Aunt Roy's son had left. When I walked to the mouth of the cave, I saw Aunt Roy processing meat~
Holding today's loot and shouting, "Aunt Roy, you see this is what Al and I have learned today," showing a red-crested beast in his hand, as well as two thorny beasts, some spices found in the valley, and most importantly, a little bit of salt that he brought back.
"You and El ran out of the tribe!" Roy asked aloud, a little angry.
Seeing that Aunt Roy seemed to be angry, Yun Mo'er hurriedly put down the things in her hand and ran over to take Roy's hand, "Aunt Roy, I was wrong, but I really didn't go to a dangerous place, just outside the Flowing Valley," Seeing that Aunt Roy's face seemed to be a little better, she shook Aunt Roy's hand and hurriedly said: "Aunt Roy, don't be angry with me, I promise you, I will never go out by myself in the future"
Roy took Mo'er's hand and said, "It's not very safe even in the tribe, you still have the audacity to run out with Al, although there are no large beasts on the periphery of Feiliu Valley, but if you encounter a blueblade, you two will be too late to run, and others will not have time to save you."
Roy was still very angry with Mo'er, and Yun Mo'er decided to barbecue meat for Aunt Roy to eat herself.
"Aunt Roy, just forgive me once! I'll give you a barbecue!"
"I found a transparent crystal in the valley, the one I hold in my hand, it can easily make a fire" Yun Mo'er took the crystal and quickly lit the fire, and began to take some spices to roast the meat, and after a while, the aroma of the meat wafted out.
"Aunt Roy, you taste it" Roy took the barbecue and began to eat it, "Be careful of scalding"~ Watching Aunt Roy eat the barbecue with relish, Yun Moer felt a sense of accomplishment, and she could take care of Aunt Roy.
"You found this thing that lit the fire and the thing that spilled on the meat?"
"That's right! This transparent stone is called crystal, and this shape of crystal gathers heat and can ignite fire"~
"This is called cumin, it is found on the periphery of the valley, it is a spice, this white crystal is called salt, and it is also found on the periphery of the valley" Yun Mo'er didn't dare to say that he ran into the valley ⊙▽⊙
"Aunt Roy, I heard that there are such white crystals in the depths of the valley, right?" Yun Mo'er asked cautiously
"I've heard of it, but this white crystal is poisonous, and some male orcs have been poisoned, we won't be fine if we eat it, no, let's go to the witch doctor to have a look" said that he was going to pull Moer away~
"Aunt Roy, it's going to be fine, I know this crystal, it's called salt, in our tribe it's barbecue, it's put when cooking, it's good for the body to eat less, but the high concentration of salt is very dehydrated and people die"
"So it's okay to eat less, and the food has become delicious, Aunt Roy, can you ask the patriarch to get more and come back?" Yun Mo'er discussed with Roy
"No, there are many dangers in the depths of the Flowing Valley, and there are Colorful Beasts, they are very fierce beasts, and they can't be allowed to take this risk" Roy refused.
......
The salt is very small, and it will be gone in less than two days, Yun Mo'er is a little depressed, and she doesn't eat much meat, sometimes she eats some fruit when she is hungry, and she suddenly loses a lot of weight.
"Mo'er, what to eat?" Looking at Yun Mo'er's appearance, Roy was a little unbearable
"Okay, Aunt Roy, you put it down, I'll eat it in a while" Yun Mo'er was a little listless, the salt in the valley can't be taken out, how else can I get some salt? After all, people will get sick if they don't eat salt for a long time~
The female of the Medusa snake clan that they rescued from the patriarch, Aisha, she fell in love with the patriarch and has been following behind our patriarch, and the clan seems to be very busy these days, and the patriarch has not come to Aunt Roy.
It's boring~~
"Mo'er, we're going to tann animal skins, do you want to go and see it together?"
"Okay, I'm going to see how to tann the hides, and the skins I'm wearing are all made by Aunt Roy. ”
"Let's go, then."
Yun Mo'er didn't look back and shouted at Roy: "Aunt Roy, Xixi and I went to see the tanning of animal skins"
"Go ahead, watch out for yourself," Roy admonished
"I will"~
Looking at Mo'er's back, he shook his head helplessly, put down the animal skin prepared for Mo'er in the rainy season in his hand, and walked towards Si Rui's cave......
Tanning animal skins is very complicated and laborious, first of all, it is necessary to soak in water, clean up the residual meat residue, blood and stains on the fresh animal skins, and then rub them repeatedly with animal oil, after many times of kneading, and then add some lime sand, knead them soft and dry.
Yun Mo'er gave up after looking at this laborious production process, I shouldn't have done it, without the huge strength of the female orcs, if only there were things like flax silk and cotton.
If I can't go back, I'll find a way to find it, and then make clothes, pants, and shoes.
The animal skin is not breathable, and it is okay to wear it in winter, but the hot summer is simply a sin!
Looking at the animal skin on his body, a small bandeau and a modified little skirt, I hope to wear cotton clothes more and more~
Saying goodbye to Xixi and preparing to go back to Aunt Roy's cave, I saw Aisha's back, as if she was hallucinating, how did I feel that Aisha had just looked at me, a very uncomfortable look.
Yun Mo'er quickly returned to the cave~
Aunt Roy was not there, walked to the stone platform, picked up the tanned animal skin on it, it was already half done, it should be similar to the clothes I wore when I crossed over, could it be the clothes that Aunt Roy made for me.
Roy walked in from the outside
Put down the animal skin in your hand, "Aunt Roy, where have you been?"
"Go for a walk, have you gone to see them tanning their hides?"
"I've gone to see it, but I don't think I can do it with this amount of strength," Watching Aunt Roy pick up the animal skin on the stone platform, he asked, "Aunt Roy made this for me?"
"That's right, the rainy season is coming, the rainy season is the cold season, and you can wear it then," Roy quickly sewed the hide with a bone needle.
Yun Mo'er had tears in her eyes, "Aunt Roy, you are so good to me." ”
