Chapter 4 Cremation
The first time Mo Yi'er met the clansmen of the Jiyin tribe was next to a water source.
Mo Yi'er thought that the Kalu tribe had not summed up these experiences, probably because their tribe was very rich in territory and had many animals, so there was no need to go to the water source to find a lot of prey.
The tribe is different, in that barren land, it is too difficult to find animals outside the water source!
"Yes, yes, thank you for the guidance of the leader of Mo Yi'er!" Barron was very respectful to Mo Yi'er. Generally, a tribal leader like him, who lacks nothing, is a little arrogant, such as the original Keyao.
But Mo Yi'er found that Barron was different from them. Barron is very honest and polite, but also a little shrewd and understanding. It's very comfortable to deal with such a leader.
Mo Yi'er chatted with him all the way back to the vicinity of the altar, and the gloomy mood dissipated a lot. Because she hunted the leopard alone, Barron took her to Mo Yi'er.
Mo Yi'er didn't push back, after all, there was no shortage of food in the Kalu tribe, so it was better to take it to the Maoqi tribe, they didn't know how long it had been since they had eaten fresh meat.
When I went to the shed of the tribe, I found that there was no one, not even the sick. Mo Yi'er looked around again, but the illness was not cured, and the brain-burned Huo Ha was brought out? This Sabra is also too nonsense.
With some anger, Mo Yi'er left the leopard in their tribe's shed, and went outside to look for it.
When I swept my eyes, I found that there was a group of people under the altar.
Mo Yi'er remembered that the dead clansman of the mountain tribe needed to be cremated, because dry firewood was not easy to find, so I was afraid that it would be finished! Thinking so, he walked to the altar.
Mo Yi'er knew that they were now living by the altar, and if a cremation was held, it would be under the altar. They thought that in this way, they could get closer to the gods, so that the gods could see them and bless them more.
The more she walked over there, the more Mo Yi'er realized that something was wrong, why were there two piles of burned dry firewood over there? Didn't only one of the people die? Could it be that another tribesman is not good?
Thinking so, my feet sped up.
Those tribesmen have already begun to clean up the charcoal residue after burning there, and if they don't clean it, it is disrespectful to the gods!
After Mo Yi'er arrived, someone greeted them when they saw it. Mo Yi'er caught a person and asked, "So it's two piles?" How many people were cremated? β
"It's two! Mo Yi'er, what's wrong with you? β
"How could it be two? When I left, weren't only one of the hill tribes dead? "Isn't there a sign of contagion? But the other tribesmen are dying one after another!
"Yes, and Hoha was cremated too!" The man said lightly, the clansmen have been dead for so long and have been cremated, and their mood has calmed down.
"Hoha? Why? Mo Yi'er was stunned.
"Hoha turned into a fool and of course burned to death. Mo Yi'er, don't you know? The man looked at Mo Yi'er suspiciously.
"Why do you have to burn to death if you become a fool?" Mo Yi'er's eyes narrowed slightly, wanting to cover the storm inside, so that others could not see what she was thinking now.
"Mo Yi'er......" Xue Bai called him on the side, today he didn't follow Mo Yi'er to hunt, but stayed to help these people hold cremations. He called Mo Yi'er aside and asked, "Mo Yi'er, don't you know that Hoha is going to be cremated in such a situation?" β
Mo Yi'er shook her head: "Although his brain was burned out, he is still alive, why burn him?" β
"Every tribe has always done this, even the outer tribes. Stupid people can't work, they can't hunt, and the tribe can't keep such waste. And also...... Humans have always believed that fools are punished by the gods. "Xue Bai is just stating a fact, a fact that is very uncomfortable to hear.
Mo Yi'er was silent for a while, her heart was full of anger, thinking that Huo Ha was still talking to her in the morning, although she was just a child, with his adult body stupid, but he was so naΓ―ve, he should have the right to live.
Mo Yi'er looked at the pitch-black piece of charcoal that was being cleaned up, imagining how frightened Hoha was to be burned to death by fire. Before he died, he must have been in pain to death, and he must have shouted loudly for his mother.
But Mo Yi'er didn't break out, but was even more silent.
What can she do? For a long time before she had crossed over, these people had done it. Mo Yi'er can't stop it, at least not yet.
It's like the first time she's been to this altar and watched Wizard Ao Ash kill a girl.
In the eyes of the clansmen, Wizard Ao Ash was not a murderer, but had done something very remarkable and protected them.
Mo Yi'er waved her hand, said to Xue Bai and left first, and went to her small cave.
She couldn't stay here any longer, this incident had awakened a long memory of Wizard Ao Ash killing that girl a long time ago.
She is not what she used to be, and many people respect her and fear her. She also has a lot of skills, but she can't keep Hoha alive.
If she had known they were going to burn Hoha to death before she went hunting, would she have saved him? Mo Yi'er wasn't sure, but she knew that she would definitely give it a try.
He came back earlier than usual, and there was only a little pompom in the small cave, and he woke up from his light sleep when he heard the movement, and soon, he found that something was wrong with Mo Yi'er. "Mo Yi'er, is something wrong again?"
In the past few days, Mo Yi'er's love has not been high, and he has been busy before and after, and the little pompom is distressed.
Mo Yi'er suddenly threw herself into the arms of the little pom-pom, sighed weakly, and told the story of Hoha.
The little pom-pom didn't have much sadness, after all, he hadn't even seen this person. But Mo Yi'er was in a bad mood, and he would accompany him and persuade: "Since you are stupid, burn to death!" Otherwise, it will also drag down their tribe. β
"You think so, too?" Mo Yi'er's voice was full of displeasure.
"What if you don't think so? Death is dead, Mo Yi'er, don't be too sad for those who have nothing to do with it. The little pom-pom said, licking Mo Yi'er's palm with his tongue. He is still in a sphinoid state, and he is very used to doing such intimate movements.
"Alright! Actually, I'm not too sad. It's just that I feel uncomfortable, if the person who burned me stupidly was me, would you burn me too? β
"Shut up, how can you say that? We're not going to let anything like that happen to you! The little pom-pom immediately became angry and yelled at Mo Yi'er. How can this bad woman think that? Is this to make him feel distressed to death?
