The coming-of-age ceremony, for men who have reached the age of 16, is a baptism in life, and it is also a responsibility.

The number of people in Qingshan Village is small, but it can thrive in the mountains, not only the blessing of the mountain spirit, but also the peace that every adult man has won in the bloody struggle in the mountains! The coming-of-age ceremony is an honor, both for the children who are about to become adults, and for every man who has already reached adulthood.

Adulthood means glory, this is the glory of blood and sweat, and this is the oath to protect Qingshan Village from generation to generation!

In Qingshan Village, there is a vacant lot in the village, with animal bones in columns, and a bloody smell is permeated, but no one feels uncomfortable, even women, children and children. Because every villager knows that if there is one less animal bone and one less puddle of animal blood here, then it means that there will be one less person to go out hunting, and the price of fewer people is death

On the contrary, the more animal bones and the more blood of the beast here, then it is the harvest of Qingshan Village! It is the glory of fighting with blood! Therefore, no one will feel uncomfortable, and there is no reason to feel uncomfortable, this is the peaceful scene of Qingshan Village, but it is fought with blood and life!

Every year, Castle Peak Village holds a coming-of-age ceremony here, even if there are no adult people!

The rite of passage can also be the vow of an adult person! It is a test of whether the adult men in the village have fulfilled their duties and shouldered glory.

Every day on this day, outside Qingshan Village, all the beasts retreat, because there is a roar that shakes the sky.

Adult strong men, standing outside the village, each holding a blade, bloodstained, roared in unison, this roar shook the sky and repelled the beasts!

The roar shook the mountains for a long time, which was the prelude to the beginning of the coming-of-age ceremony in Qingshan Village. The rite of passage cannot be interrupted, even though there are many protections outside the village to prevent wild beasts from entering, but there are exceptions to everything!

In the history of Qingshan Village, there was a generation of coming-of-age ceremonies, and for some reason the Qi roar before the coming-of-age ceremony was abolished.

That generation, because the original adult strong men were hunting, suffered a catastrophe and suffered more than half of the casualties, the green mountains wailed, and the blood filled the earth This generation can be called a bloody day, and I thought that the coming-of-age ceremony would bring new hope and a new beginning to the next generation.

However, because most of the adult strong men died tragically, and the number was too small, the villagers were worried that shouting together before the coming-of-age ceremony would lead to great disaster. There is only a lot of protection outside the village, and it will not be so coincidental that a big beast will enter the village on the day of the coming-of-age ceremony

But it was such a coincidence! The fierce beasts took advantage of the coming-of-age ceremony to attack Qingshan Village together, and blood flowed all over the ground.

Why, just because the villagers of Qingshan are afraid! Yes, they are afraid!

I don't want to roar and shake all the beasts, this is fear!

If the heart is afraid, how much can be warned, no wonder the beasts have entered the village together. Even if there is only one person left, if you are not afraid, the roar of one person can shake off the beasts! This bloody day has harmed two generations of people, and the green mountains have shed blood, and the eternal mourning has become mourning

Since then, each generation of village chiefs will repeatedly mention this matter, and the villagers of Qingshan, even if they are alone, will shout out glory!

If the sacrifice is the soul of Qingshan Village, then this coming-of-age ceremony is the bone of Qingshan Village.

When the roars of the adult men were over, they gathered in the center of the village, where every family would come together and sit cross-legged by the bones.

In the center of the beast bone bar is the skull of a giant ancient beast, which is several zhang large, even after a long time, the fishy smell has not dissipated, and there is a faint beast power circulation, and the fierce aura is compelling.

"This turned out to be a lion?!" Fang Tianque screamed in Mo Ran's head.

"How can this be a lion!"

"What are you calling nonsense, you almost scared me" Mo Ran was taken aback, and his heart was depressed, isn't it just a bone, as for such a fuss.

This Fang Tianque has obviously been in the village for several days, and he has never seen such a big lion skull, looking at the little sparrow in front of him, with a look of disdain.

"Is this lion very special, look at you nervous, and an ancient spirit bird"

"What kind of monsters are you villagers, what do you know, this is a lion, my God."

Fang Tianque was dizzy for a while, and he was almost frightened and fainted. It's no wonder that the blood here is abnormal, very rich, Fang Tianque often follows Xiao Qi, of course he won't come here, this time he followed Mo Ran to see the coming-of-age ceremony but ran into the lion skull!

"The lion is an ancient fierce beast, stepping on black clouds, splitting the sky in one step, tearing the dragon at the top, and swallowing the Jiao at the bottom!" Fang Tianque combed his chest with his wings and looked at Mo Ran, but he was still puzzled.

"My God, how did you get the skull of this fierce beast? As far as the villagers of Qingshan die, I don't believe it, even if it is a young lion, with a slap down, this mountain is gone, don't you really say that it is really a villager of Qingshan Village?" Fang Tianque blinked his big eyes twice, his face was suspicious, and he didn't believe it.

"I heard from the village chief that this skull has been passed down from generation to generation, and I don't know very well."

Mo Ran thought about it and said, at first he thought it was an ordinary lion skull, and he was a little bigger. This lion has never been mentioned in ancient books, and he doesn't know very well, Fang Tianque is worthy of being an ancient spirit bird, and he knows so much.

"Looks like I have to leave this savage village early, it's so insecure, maybe I don't know when I'm stewed"

Fang Tianque looked at the animal bones around him, his feathers stood upright, and he was covered with pimples, and there were some spirit beasts and ancient beast bones in the pile full of animal bones, this village really hunted everything and ate everything.

Today's Fang Tianque is actually only young, just like a five or six-year-old girl of the human race, although he has seen beasts fighting between the deep mountains and trees, but in the field made of thousands of beast bones here, it is simply incomparable.

The bloody and ferocious aura here is too permeating, Fang Tianque is very puzzled, this village is still full of strange people, looking at those women, children and children are used to this, there is no discomfort at all.

The people who participated in the coming-of-age ceremony all around the city also arrived one after another, and at noon, when the sun was shining, the coming-of-age ceremony began.

On this day, several generations of the village's elders will also appear, and some elderly people who are not usually seen will also need to participate.

The coming-of-age ceremony will be a special wine made of animal blood, which is specially prepared for adult children, in addition to all kinds of animal blood, some spiritual herbs and elixirs are also added to it, after all, there are many elixirs in Qingshan Village.

After the special production method in the village, it is refined into beast blood wine, and now every adult child needs to take the beast blood wine handed by the old man and drink it all, this is a ritual, only by drinking the beast blood, can you hunt the beast in the future and drink blood!

Mo Ran and a group of children stood up, this group of figures are all playmates for more than ten years, and after today, they are comrades-in-arms who defend the village!

Even if Mo Ran came from the outside world, Qingshan Village had already regarded him as a relative. Everyone who has drunk the blood of the beast needs to say their own oath, and every oath is their own soul, and they will also be integrated into the village soul of this Qingshan Village.

The tall and swarthy Qin Li was the first to take the bowl and swallowed it in one gulp, "I, Qin Li, am an adult today, and I will definitely defend the village, enjoy the meat together, and drink the wine together" A heroic voice.

Then another tall figure, also not to be left behind, took the beast blood wine, and drank it all, "I, Li Lei, am an adult today, and I will live up to expectations, stand up to the sky and the earth, and kill the beast in blood."

"I, Sun Ming, have drunk this wine, and I will defend Qingshan Village to the death"

"I, Zhang Hai, am an adult today, swear by the blood of the beast, and protect the village for the rest of my life"

......

An oath, a sentence of arrogance, resounded over Qingshan Village, this oath, the soul is there, the village is there!

Mo Ran took the beast blood wine and drank it all, the emerald spiritual liquid in his body was green and green in the case that Mo Ran was unaware of. Beast blood wine, which is the soul of Qingshan Village for generations, is not only able to temper the body, but also a kind of faith, an inexplicable vicissitudes of life and tragic soul, which resonates with the cyan spiritual liquid for a long time.

"I, Mo Ran, am not from Qingshan Village......

Mo Ran's words made the villagers look at him, Mo Ran is not from Qingshan Village, and the villagers all know about it. But now, Mo Ran has no scruples, and he speaks out, very curious, what will happen to Mo Ran's oath, the oath is like a soul, and the oath spoken at the rite of passage represents a person!

"However, the green mountains cast my bones, cast my blood, cast my flesh, my soul is like a green mountain, protect this village, and I will not give in in this life!"

Mo Ran roared loudly, resounding through the sky, Qingshan resonated with it, there was a blue light manifestation, and the green light in his body was even more dazzling, it seemed to have a strong resonance with Qingshan's soul.

At this moment, the Qingshan villagers really understood that Mo Ran was the people of Qingshan Village, and even the Qingshan soul resonated with it, which was a glory that no villager had in the past generations, as if Mo Ran was the real Qingshan villagers, and they were only living here, and they were not really recognized!

The rite of passage, roaring beasts, drinking the blood of beasts, singing oaths, this is only the first stage of the rite of passage!

Today's children are adults, and after their oaths, they are adults, and they also need to take their vows again, which is a kind of reinvention and a test.

The oath of the rite of adulthood, in a sense, is more like a soldier who is about to go on an expedition as if he were going home, because there is no war in Qingshan Village, so every hunt outside the village may be a full return, or a parting of life and death

The coming-of-age ceremony in the second stage is a little more relaxed than the solemnity of the first stage, and it is just a mutual exchange.

The coming-of-age ceremony is the previous generation, and the actual combat skills of hunting beasts should be instilled in the adult people of this generation bit by bit, as an example for them to learn.

Although there are a lot of exchanges on weekdays, but more is only a play between peers, and the coming-of-age ceremony, in addition to peer learning, you can also ask your elders for advice, which is not arrogant, this is a must for every adult person.

Although this is only a suggestion in the rules of the coming-of-age ceremony, there is no hard and fast rule. But in the inheritance of several generations, has gradually taken shape, as the younger generation to ask the elders for advice, if it is frustration, as a kind of training, if it is successful, but also a kind of recognition of themselves, Qingshan Village people, must have a hundred victories in a hundred battles, but also to have indomitable perseverance!

"Qin Zhu, do you dare to fight!?" Sun Ming's father, Sun Hailong, stepped forward.

"My kid is lazy, the first game, I will fight, give him a long look"

"Come"

Qin Zhu stood up and stepped in. The two fought together in a blink of an eye, and this time they fought without a blade, and hand-to-hand combat was the most test of skill and strength, and it was also the most practical.

Because you can't keep hunting outside, your blade won't fall! It won't be damaged! But people won't, unless you fight to the end of your life! Otherwise, your fists must be clenched, and you will fight to the last breath, and foreign objects are foreign objects after all, and your own strength is the most practical!

Mo Ran looked at it closely, this kind of competition will happen every year, and Mo Ran is also constantly observing and learning, and it is confirmed by the integration of what he has learned, although the villagers of Qingshan are simple, but the perennial fighting techniques are simple and concise. The road is simple, that's all.
