Chapter 282: Goodbye Yangsui

The surrounding land is getting drier, and the creatures in the mountains and forests are less active.

After passing through several high mountains, the group came to a hilly area.

Standing on the top of a small hill, Shao Xuan saw some houses in the distance, as well as large areas of farmland. However, those farmlands do not seem to be growing well, because of the lack of water, not only slow growth, but also high mortality.

As far away, it is not clear to see, as if it is covered with layers of gauze. That's because there is so much sand and dust in the air that it affects the view. Because of the drought, when the wind blows, it will bring up some sand and dust.

The farther you go, the more cracks in the ground become, and although there is some sparse fine grass, the cracked ground takes up most of the view.

"That's the Rain Tribe over there. Renoha said to the young warriors who had come here for the first time.

When walking towards the Rain Tribe, the elders would tell the young warriors of the tribe about the things of each tribe, and now when they see the Rain Tribe, they will naturally tell them about the customs of the Rain Tribe.

Although Shao Xuan knew Yang Sui of the Rain Tribe, his understanding of this tribe was extremely limited, so when the middle-aged man explained to the young warriors of their tribe, Shao Xuan, like everyone else, listened with his ears. It always pays to know more.

"The people of the rain tribe, the totem is like 'rain', worship water, and their belief in rain is far beyond your imagination. If the people of their tribe go somewhere else and drown in the river or are eaten by the water beasts, they will not grieve in many cases, but they will think that those who drown or are eaten by the water beasts must have some mysterious power beyond others to send themselves to the place where the gods are without the help of external forces......"

Shao Xuan and others: "......" is lying in a groove!

That's what I said. Those crocodiles of the Shan tribe are simply the spokesmen of the gods.

It sounds ridiculous, but it's understandable. Each tribe has its own beliefs and worship. Many things that seem extremely brainless to others are the unwavering beliefs of others. For this, you can't change their minds even if you pry their brains open.

"It is said that the witches of the rain tribe who can't ask for rain have all been burned to death?" asked one person.

"It's not quite, I heard that there were cases of burning at first, but then I couldn't get the rain. It is impossible to let the tribe have no witches, so they changed it. It's just that in this way, in the rain tribe, the status of Wu has gradually decreased. It is said that the candidate for the Rain Witch must travel in the hope of finding a solution. ”

"Did you find it later?" asked a young warrior from the Feather Tribe.

The others looked at the warrior who asked the question like they were stupid, "This is fake, how can you ask for rain if you ask, our tribe's witches can't do it, how can the rain tribe's witches do it?"

"Yes. The others nodded. Felt. What your own tribe can't do, people from this small tribe will definitely not be able to do, not to mention, asking for rain is a lie.

"How can God have anything to do with 'rain'? However, one thing I agree with is that God must be able to fly, well. Definitely. The people of the Yu tribe said.

"Nonsense! How could a god have wings? It must have eight hands!" said the uneighth.

"Fart! God certainly doesn't look like that!"

When it came to what God was, tribal warriors of different faiths quarreled because of their differences.

The people of the Tianshan tribe believed that the gods dwelt on the mountains. The people of the Mang tribe vetoed, strongly believing that God should dwell in the woods, or with the bamboo forest.

The people of the Thousand Faces tribe did not speak, but their faces were full of disagreement, and they told everyone their opinions.

Shao Xuan thought about the Yanjiao tribe, as he was brainwashed by witches since he was a child. No, those who are taught by witches, they only believe in three things - fire, totem and ancestor. What is God? Is it the kindling, is it the embodiment of the totem, is it the deceased ancestor, or is it all three?

Listening to the discussions of the people around them, Lei and Tuo touched their heads at the same time, and began to sketch the appearance of the gods in their minds. If there were gods. Should...... It's the horns on the head, right? Anyway, it's definitely not those who have wings to play with spiders, and it's not rain.

Well, it must have horns on its head, and it's extremely powerful!" I think other people are just.

Seeing that the fight was about to start, the elders who were glaring at each other had to calm down and pull those excited young fighters away.

"Hey, who is that?" asked Ray, pointing to a group of people walking not far away.

When they heard this, they stopped arguing and looked over there.

On the other side, there was a procession of nine people, who were at the front, dressed in clothes woven of green rattan and yellow withered grass, and some ornaments of wood and bone, each holding a pottery bowl in his hand, holding the bowl in one hand and dipping the other hand in the bowl, and shaking it vigorously to the side. Take a few steps and shake it. The clay bowl should be filled with water.

Those people had some wooden bells made of nuts that looked like walnuts hanging from their waists, and every time they shook their arms vigorously, because of the movement of their bodies, the falling wooden bells on their waists would also shake and make a clicking sound, which sounded very similar to the movement of rain hitting the ground.

"It's from the Rain Tribe. Renoha said.

"Is that a sacrifice?" someone asked.

"I don't know, it may be related to their sacrifice. ”

"Anyway, let's find a place to rest for now. ”

"That's right, the Rain Tribe will provide a house for the travelers who come and go, so let's just rest there. Said someone who had traveled far away.

The team of the Rain Tribe was not walking fast, and when Shao Xuan and his party passed, they happened to staggered past them.

The faces of these people of the rain tribe were painted with totem patterns, and they couldn't see their faces clearly, but Shao Xuan still recognized Yang Sui who was walking in the front.

Yang Sui was dressed a little differently from the other eight people behind him, and it was more complicated, and the one he was holding in his hand was not a simple pottery bowl, it was slightly higher, and there were some strips and dots painted on the outside of the pottery bowl, like flowing water and rain.

Yang Sui also saw Shao Xuan, he was stunned, and wanted to say something, but realized that now was not a good time to say hello and catch up, and when he saw the people around Shao Xuan, he thought of something, and his eyes quickly moved towards the tribe.

This is to let Shao Xuan go over there first, and he is looking for Shao Xuan to catch up after he is done.

The Rain tribe built a row of wooden houses on the edge of the tribe for the travelers to live in, as long as they paid a certain "lodging fee".

The expenses are at their own expense, and others will not pay for people who are not from their own tribe, but fortunately, Shao Xuan has a lot of "money". The Rain tribesmen who were guarding there were given some shell coins and exchanged for a wooden house for three people.

The wooden house is very simple, but in such a place where it is difficult to see a big tree, it can only make do.

Exchanged some dry food with the people of the rain tribe, a kind of hard dough cake, Shao Xuan and the three of them were quite unaccustomed to gnawing, especially Tuo and Lei, they were hunting wild beasts and fierce beasts to fill their stomachs, and it was the first time they encountered such a place and ate such food.

"I think it's great that our tribe is there. Ray said.

Tuo deeply agrees. Biting into the hard and unpalatable dough, he asked Shao Xuan, "How long do we have to stay here?"

"How long you stay depends on the elders, as for the future...... You'd better be prepared. Shao Xuan gave them a "you know" look.

The look of expectation on Lei Hetuo's face suddenly fell, it was worse than this...... They would rather go to the beast mountain forest and stay alone for ten days and hundreds of days than be in such a place where even a beast is difficult to see.

No wonder they said that the trip would be difficult.

After a short rest, a young girl who brought water in smiled at Shao Xuan and gave Shao Xuan a leaf.

After the girl left, Lei Hetuo squeezed his eyes and teased: "Ah Xuan, is it the custom of the rain tribe to send leaves?"

"Is there anything written on the leaf?

Shao Xuan avoided the two of them, glanced at the words on the leaf quickly, and then grated the leaf.

Lei Hetuo's face was disappointed.

"I'll go out for a while, if there's something urgent on the other side of the line, blow the whistle. After a pause, Shao Xuan said again: "Guarding against the people of the Tianshan Mountains." ”

"Yes, you go, Elder. Tuo waved his hand.

Before leaving the wooden house, Shao Xuan saw a person looking from the window of another room around, over there, people from the Tianshan tribe lived, and someone in the window was holding a bow, and the arrow was facing Shao Xuan, and he didn't shoot it, but kept an aiming posture.

Seeing Shao Xuan look over, the man smiled, and that smile made people look very unhappy.

The people of the Tianshan tribe were hostile to Shao Xuan, was it because of the Dishan tribe or because of something else?

No matter what, this kind of hostility made Shao Xuan always guard against them.

Ignoring the people over there, Shao Xuan knew that they didn't dare to act blatantly now. After leaving the wooden house, Shao Xuan went in one direction, there was a small hill there, and there were some wooden houses on the hill, which did not belong to the scope of the rain tribe, and Shao Xuan would not be stopped.

The huts were much more dilapidated than the places where they had rested for a while. Looking at the straw rope hanging from one of the wooden houses, Shao Xuan walked over.

The door panel was half closed, and Shao Xuan saw the people in the room, one was the young girl who brought him water and leaves, and the other was sitting on the ground, which was Yang Sui.

At this moment, Yang Sui was holding a cow's tail and staring affectionately.

Shao Xuan had seen the young girl once before delivering water, and she followed behind Yang Sui, but the clothes she was wearing at that time and the patterns painted on her face were difficult to recognize.

When Shao Xuan came, the girl was talking in a whisper, and only stopped when she heard the movement, and the two looked up at Shao Xuan.

"Coming?" Yang Sui didn't look very good, and after washing the patterns on his face, his eyes were blue and black.

"You don't look like you're mixing well. The battle for witches failed?" Shao Xuan asked.

"No, I'm a witch now, but I'm failing. Yang Sui sighed. (To be continued......)
