Chapter 264: Young Elder
If we follow the previous ritual steps, when the third Yan is over, the sacrifice will also end, but tonight is different.
Even the new warriors who had just awakened didn't have time to rejoice that they had become totemic warriors to turn their fortunes around, and they were shocked by the flame giant that had just appeared. Although the giant had now disappeared into the fire pond with the retracting flames, the shock from the bottom of my heart just now lingered for a long time.
It's not just because of the appearance of this huge flame man, but the feeling that this flame man gives them, after seeing it, they abandon all their thoughts and want to bow down immediately.
Wu Chang breathed a long sigh of relief, glanced at the leader Ao, and then looked at Shao Xuan.
Whether it is a witch or a leader, there is a deep joy in his eyes.
"Everyone!" the leader's deep voice resounded in the field, calling back the people who were still immersed in the feeling just now.
"I, Ao, the current leader of the Yanjiao tribe, follow the will of the ancestors and accept 'Xuan' as the 'elder' of the tribe!" Ao said solemnly.
After the leader, Wu also said: "I, the current Wu of the Yanjiao tribe, follow the will of the ancestors and accept 'Xuan' as the 'elder' of the tribe!"
The people who had just returned to their senses, and before they could think of anything else, they were stunned when they heard the words of the leader and the witch.
Elder, are you talking about Shao Xuan?
They had also heard that other tribes had elders, but they were all old men who had made countless contributions in each tribe, and they were also strong, most of them had competed for the position of leader, and even some tribes, after the leader retired, accepted the position of elder, but they had never heard of such a young elder!
The old people's impression of the elders of the Yanjiao tribe was that there were only a few dried corpses cremated back then, and they didn't have much concept of this word, but since Wu and the leader had said it. That's irrefutable, what's more, what Wu He said was "according to the will of the ancestors", that is the meaning of the ancestors, who can refute it? Who dares to refute it? Dare to refute it!
Shao Xuan handed the bone ornament to Wu, and then held a formal ceremony to confer it. From now on, Shao Xuan is the "elder" of the Yanjiao tribe, second only to Wu and the leader.
Wu held the bone ornament with the light of flames, his hands trembled because he was too excited, he could feel the sense of affinity transmitted from the bone ornament, it belonged to the power of Wu, and it was the previous witch of the tribe. At the same time, the power consumed by presiding over the sacrifice in his body is rapidly recovering.
Lao Ke in the crowd was flushed because of the ups and downs of love, and tears flashed in his sunken eyes. Who would have thought that the child who came out of the hole back then and couldn't even eat his stomach would become what he is today. Got such a high status?
In the entire tribe, the highest status in the hearts of the old people of Yanhorn must be unconditionally obedient. Only Wu and the chieftain, even the two big bosses of Ta and Gui Qi, can't make everyone completely obey Cheng Dรน, but now, it seems that there is one more. According to the meaning of the witch and the chief, the status of the elder is higher than that of the big boss. When the witch and the leader make a heavy decision, the elders can also participate and refute it.
The sacrifice was not until after the conferment of the elders.
The new totem warriors have been summoned to one place. Wait for the teachings of the witch. Others, on the other hand, went back together. From today onwards, they will no longer be tourists, but real Flamehorn tribesmen!
This time, the number of awakened people, including children of old age and returning tourists, is less than 2,000, and the exact number is still being counted. This is similar to what Shao Xuan expected.
Shao Xuan asked Lao Ke and Caesar to go back first, and the leader had something to do with him, about bone ornaments.
The people gathered in the field around the fire pit gradually dispersed, and those who successfully awakened were very happy at home, and they would call their friends to celebrate when they returned. And those who fail to awaken, except for those children, other adults have a much smaller chance of awakening in the future.
A slender woman looked very depressed, and she only smiled at the comfort of the people around her, and did not speak. There are not many people like her, so it is not conspicuous in the crowd.
As she walked out of the crowd, her husband was waiting anxiously. During the ceremony, the periphery is surrounded by tourists from the outside, and her husband is one of them.
"How's it going?" the man strode forward when he saw his wife approaching.
The woman shook her head.
The people who passed by, looking at the honest man, comforted his wife awkwardly, and sighed and left after a few words of comfort.
The frustrated couple in people's eyes walked out of the venue, returned to their wooden house, and closed the door.
The simplicity and clumsiness on the man's face dissipated, his face became solemn, and with helplessness, he took out some medicinal herbs and mashed them, put them in a clay pot and added water, lit a fire, and boiled the medicine.
These medicines do not have a strong smell like other herbs, and when they are cooked, they have a faint smell of grass, and if you are not careful, you can't smell them if you are a little farther away.
And the slender woman, after the doors and windows were closed, her face quickly turned pale, she couldn't hold back any longer, a mouthful of blood spurted out, as if she had exhausted all her strength, if she hadn't sat on the stool with the wooden table, she would probably have fallen directly.
"Miscalculated. The man said, looking at the clay pot.
The woman gasped and sat on the stool next to the wooden table, not making a sound, she was afraid that if she made a sound, she would vomit blood again.
After the medicine was cooked, she drank the medicine and rested quietly for a while before she said slowly: "If it weren't for the sudden appearance of that flame giant, I wouldn't be like this!"
Originally, their plan was to observe and see if there were any precious treasures in the Yanjiao tribe during the sacrifice, and generally speaking, the ones that were taken out during the sacrifice were extremely precious.
This time, however, they miscalculated.
They play a small couple here, the man is the outsider, the woman is the Yanjiao bloodline, and when the sacrifice is made, the place where they stand is also different, because this time the visitors of the Yanjiao bloodline will be closer to the front to facilitate awakening.
Totem warriors from the outer tribe, who want to join the Flame Horn Tribe, need to go through a recognition ceremony before they can be accepted by the Tinder, otherwise, they will be rejected by the Tinder. It's a feeling that no one would want to try. But if you are a non-believing tourist, the repulsive power of the fire will be much smaller.
They have not undergone such rituals, and at the same time, they are not really tourists without any other faith.
When the flames of the fire pit rose and spread, she felt like a thorn all over her body, and it hurt hotly, but this pain could still be endured, they had experienced many similar situations, and their endurance was naturally different from mortals.
However, they didn't expect that a flame giant would suddenly appear! The repulsion of the fire was doubled at that time, and the shock brought to her by the flame giant was very strong, and she almost shook out a mouthful of blood at that time, but she forced it back, but fortunately, at that time, the people around her paid attention to the situation on the other side of the fire pit, and no one paid attention to her, otherwise she would have been exposed at that time.
She remembered that the situation at that time was like a weak beast, facing a huge beast, without the power to resist, and at this time, she still had palpitations when she thought about it. Thanks to his long experience and his own superb disguise, he avoided those around him. (To be continued......)
