Chapter 11: The Prophet
"You want me to be a prophet?" Fifth Brother Zhang asked, pointing to his nose.
Ka Feng hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking rice, his face was full of flattery, and said: "Fifth brother, you are idle and idle, so you simply became this prophet!" Just beg the old brother, you really can't bear to watch the old brother kneel. ”
Fifth Brother Zhang ate and drank in the tribe of the Frost Giants, as the saying goes, the mouth of eating people is short, and the hands of taking people are short, so he has to open his mouth and agree. He thinks that the prophet and the accountant in the brigade should be about the same, as long as he can write and calculate, he can be competent, his fifth brother Zhang is the only high school graduate in Heishi Village, although his academic performance is a mess, it is more than enough to be an accountant in the brigade.
Mei walked out of the igloo, listened for a while, and asked, "Prophet and chief, who listens to whom?" ”
Ka Feng's throat moved up and down, and said: "The prophet is the venerable person in the clan, and even the leader cannot disobey the prophet's will, but the prophet does not directly manage the affairs of the clan, and we usually do not trouble the prophet, only when we encounter major matters that are difficult to decide, we will ask the prophet for advice." ”
Fifth Brother Zhang laughed and said: "I understand, the leader is the father, the affairs of the family are in charge of the father, the prophet is the grandfather, usually smokes dry tobacco and drinks old wine, and does not have to worry about anything, but when it comes to major events, the father still has to discuss with the grandfather." ”
With a constipated expression on his face, Ka Feng said, "This ......, that's pretty much what it means." ”
Fifth Brother Zhang pulled Ka Feng up and said, "Brother Ka Feng, there is such a good thing, you didn't make it clear earlier, this grandfather, ah, no!" I'm done with this prophet! ”
Ka Feng echoed and smiled, thinking, "I haven't been a grandson for many years, yes, now not only does the tribe have a prophet, but I also have multiple grandfathers." ”
Peiya took out a set of white bearskin clothes, presented them with both hands, and said, "Lord Prophet, this is something I sewed overnight, you can put it on and try it to see if it fits." ”
Fifth Brother Zhang was not polite, so he tried it on the spot, only to see that he was wearing a bearskin high hat and a white bearskin coat. From afar, it looks like a big white bear, and up close, it looks like a small white bear, and when I look at it in front of me, oh, it turns out to be a prophet wearing a white bear skin, and he is a powerful instrument with a hundred steps in front of and behind him, and there is a thousand evil spirits in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
"Mei, what do you think?" Fifth Brother Zhang had never worn such good clothes, and his expression was a little shy.
Mei helped Fifth Brother Zhang press the bearskin high hat, so that the brim of the hat was just pressed on the brow, and the face looked deep and majestic, and then said with a smile: "Good-looking!" ”
He said, "Prophet, according to the style you painted, we will build a nine-tooth nail rake overnight, do you want to take a look?" ”
Fifth Brother Zhang was also a little curious in his heart, so he nodded and agreed, and the group came to a valley, where more than two dozen frost giants were busy in full swing.
I saw a blast furnace three meters up and down, more than five meters in diameter, the flames in the blast furnace rushing, two frost giants shirtless, pulling the huge bellows at once, the raging flames illuminated the entire valley, and a wave of heat rushed to the face.
A middle-aged frost giant bowed down to Fifth Brother Zhang, and said to Ka Feng: "Chief, according to the instructions of the prophet, we have selected the best meteorite iron accumulated in the clan, and forged it all night, and now the nine-tooth nail rake has been formed and is being smelted in the furnace. ”
Ka Feng said to the middle-aged frost giant: "Wenger, you and your children have worked hard, and when the weapons of the prophet are forged, I will personally toast you, and whoever does not drink and fall will not be a good man." ”
Wenger said: "I will do my best to the weapons of the prophet, so don't worry, Chief." ”
Fifth Brother Zhang saw that the two frost giants who pulled the bellows were sweating, so he stepped forward and said, "Two big brothers, rest, I'll try." ”
When the two giants saw that it was the Prophet, they did not dare to say more, so they flashed aside.
Fifth Brother Zhang didn't work for a long time, this time he pulled the bellows, he felt happy in his heart, his arms were strong, and the bellows were whirring, like the breath of a giant dragon, and the flames in the blast furnace suddenly rose into the air.
In less than a meal, the blast furnace was burned red, and Mei was gasping for breath from the heat, and her body kept retreating, getting farther and farther away from the blast furnace. Fifth Brother Zhang didn't seem to care about the fire, he just felt a little hot, and he wasn't so uncomfortable. His current body has been transformed by the fire of the totem, and when he is fully completed in the future, he will have the power to pick the stars and take the moon, and the power of water and fire will not invade. Although the fire is still shallow, the ordinary flames are no threat to him.
Wenger looked intently at the flames in the blast furnace, and saw that the fire turned from red to orange, and then from orange to blue-white, and opened the furnace with a loud roar, and then the six giant strong men each held large iron tongs, and together they clamped out the nine-tooth nail rake exercised in the blast furnace, and then dipped it into a huge iron bucket filled with the blood of a white bear.
The bear's blood bubbled and bubbled, and the nine-toothed nail rake cooled down sharply, taking on a black-red sheen.
"It's done!" Wenger shouted excitedly, not afraid of being hot, fished out the nine-tooth nail rake from the bear's blood, lifted his hands to the top of his head with great difficulty, and knelt down to offer it to Fifth Brother Zhang.
As soon as Fifth Brother Zhang grabbed it with one hand, he easily took the nine-tooth nail rake and took it in his hand to watch it carefully. I saw that this rake was about one zhang long from head to tail, the nine giant teeth in front were sharp, and there seemed to be countless blood marks on the back handle, and the end was a good weapon.
"Good!" Fifth Brother Zhang couldn't help but admire, he just said casually, he didn't expect the frost giant to really be created, and the ordinary rake that rakes dung on the ground is different, this nine-tooth nail rake sells very well, it looks like a high-end product, and it is heavy in your hand, you really love it. "If this is placed in ancient times, only when the emperor Lao Tzu farmed the land, he could use such a good rake."
Wenger was also a little proud, and said: "Lord Prophet, this nine-toothed nail rake weighs five hundred and forty-eight pounds, which is exactly the number of one treasure, and it is the heaviest weapon in our tribe, that is, you can dance with divine power like yours. ”
The frost giants around echoed their voices, and some of the young people coaxed the prophet to demonstrate how to use the nine-tooth nail rake.
Fifth Brother Zhang was not afraid, tidied up his clothes, regarded the valley as a farmland waiting to be leveled, picked up a nine-tooth nail rake, built a big tree with a rake in front, and smashed a few boulders with a rake in the back, and hit the left and right in a chain, and the frozen soil on the ground smashed out two deep pits.
But when he saw Fifth Brother Zhang dancing the nine-toothed nail rake into a cold white light, he suddenly pierced the air with rocks, and talked miserably, and the valley was in a mess, as if it had been ravaged by a heavy bulldozer.
When the dance reached the rising place, Fifth Brother Zhang couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar, and then held the nine-toothed nail rake behind him in his backhand, standing still for a while, as if he was stopping at the edge of the mountain, quite a grandmaster's style.
The wind suddenly rose, blowing Fifth Brother Zhang's white bear skin, he somehow remembered a crooked poem, and chanted: Today, with the nail rake in his hand, when will he tie the dragon?
"What a lot!" The Frost Giants cheered, Mei's eyes glowing, and her hands turned red.
Ka Feng was glad to find North, and said, "Imir is above, and you are dancing very well, Lord Prophet, you are saying that it is a dragon, and I think that even the father and mother of the dragon are coming together, and you will not be able to stop your nine-toothed nail rake." ”
Fifth Brother Zhang was a little proud, but he was embarrassed to be praised by Carden, and said humbly: "I still can't do it these days, according to Uncle Weidong in the village, the ground that people have raked is fine and even, not to mention the stones, even if it is a dirt, it can't be seen, that is the real good style." ”
Ka Feng was a little puzzled and asked, "Is there anyone in the world who is more powerful than the Prophet?" ”
Fifth Brother Zhang looked at Ka Feng, just like the salesman of the supply and marketing cooperative, who was coaxed by cowhide, looked at a shy soil bun in his bag, and said: "There are more people who are better than me, I am not as good as Uncle Weidong in terms of raking, I am not as good as Huang Ergou in terms of cutting wheat, and I have to count the captain of a team in Yangchang, you just haven't seen anything in the world, if you go to our Black Stone Village, you will be sure to shock your jaw off." ”
Ka Feng gasped and thought to himself, where is this Black Rock Village? Could it be a sacred place blessed by the gods, otherwise how could there be so many masters.
When Peiya saw that her husband was deflated, she was also sneered, and asked, "Lord Prophet, I don't know what you did before?" It is really enviable to have such a strong strength at such a young age. ”
Fifth Brother Zhang was about to answer, but Mei said proudly on the side: "Fifth Brother used to be the big leader of the tribe and an invincible hero among the barbarians, but he was just tired of his previous life, so he put down everything and went to explore the unknown distance. ”
Fifth Brother Zhang's old face turned red, and he thought obediently, Mei, you can really brag, I am a farmer, I don't know how I came to this ghost place, and I also explore unknown distances, I have lived so big, I have never even been to the city, and I am active near a radius of fifty miles from Heishi Village.
When Peya heard this, her face was full of reverence and solemnity, and she muttered to herself: "The prophet, like Ymir, the ancestor of the giants, gave up his beautiful wife, his honorable position, and the land flowing with milk and honey in search of the truth. ”
As she spoke, Peiya seemed to have touched something, her eyes were filled with tears, she knelt down on one knee, put Fifth Brother Zhang's hand on top of her head, and said reverently: "I am guilty, I once questioned the Prophet in private, I am afraid that you have robbed me of my husband's power, please forgive me, I will faithfully follow in your footsteps." ”
After Peya had finished speaking, she said to Karen, "Haven't you repented to the Prophet?" ”
Ka Feng was completely impressed by Fifth Brother Zhang, and also knelt down on one knee, and said: "I am guilty, my selfishness and narrow-mindedness have blinded me, and I cannot see the light of the wisdom and extraordinary strength of the Prophet, from now on, there will be no more doubts in my heart, and I will follow the Prophet wholeheartedly." ”
Fifth Brother Zhang had the blue sky above his head, the nine-toothed nail rake in his hand seemed to be a magic weapon for preaching, the white bear skin on his body was spotless, and the gaze hidden under the bearskin high hat was so deep. At this moment, there seems to be a kind of divinity surrounding Zhang Wuge, he seems to be the Tang monk's Zhu Bajie, and he seems to be a mountain carving that stands on the ground to become a Buddha.
I don't know when, the other frost giants also knelt down on one knee, infected by this atmosphere, Mei's knees also softened unconsciously, and when he was about to kneel, Zhang Wuge grabbed him with one hand, and his voice was like Hong Zhong Dalu, and said: "You can fight hard and make a movement in the depths of your soul, so it's good, get up." ”
As if they had been pardoned, they stood up as if they were a flock of lambs.
