Chapter 411: The Great Ceremony of Worshipping the Gods
Tashi Phuntsok's expression was shocked, and he hurriedly looked over there.
Two black shadows rushed over.
At the same time, a gust of wind howled, like thunder!
With a bang, that huge force smashed down directly, instantly knocking Tashi Phuntsok out of the air.
Tashi Phuntsok didn't react at all, and just wanted to get up, only to feel a chill in his shoulder.
He looked sideways and saw a golden compass pressed against his shoulder, a cold light flickering.
"Who are you?"
His eyes were stunned, and he stared at the person in front of him with great confusion.
Chongning looked over and was immediately overjoyed.
These two people are none other than Xuan Zhen and Yang Haoyu.
Xuanzhen's robe flew over, like a master outside the world.
Yang Haoyu was holding a golden compass, like a god of war.
Under the joint efforts of the two, they are invincible.
Xuan Zhen looked at Chongning and the others, "Are you all right?" ”
Chongning's face was delighted, and he ran over quickly, "It's okay, it's okay." How did you find here? ”
Xuan Zhen glanced at Tashi Phuntsok at his feet and said, "It's a long story, how to deal with this person?" ”
Chongning couldn't help but look at the patriarch next to him, this person was not only an elder of the Gumo clan, but also the patriarch's cousin.
How to deal with this person depends on the attitude of the patriarch.
The patriarch stood aside, staring at Tashi Phuntsok with cold eyes.
At this time, Tashi Phuntsok completely lost his previous arrogance, his attitude changed 180 degrees, and his face was full of pity.
"Patriarch, cousin! For the sake of our blood, spare me. I'm willing to be a cow and a horse for you! Please! ”
Tashi Phuntsok lay on the ground, unusually humble.
His body was still trembling because of the fear.
At this time, Zhuoma and others also came over.
Zhuoma said sharply: "Father, this person is a femme fatale, and he can't stay!" ”
The few seriously injured guards next to him also had resolute faces, and they must be broken into pieces!
The patriarch's heart was still merciful, and he made a Gumo salute to the sky, and then said, "You go, never return to the Gumo tribe." ”
Tashi Phuntsok was relieved, so grateful that he kowtowed again and again, and muttered something in his mouth, probably words of gratitude.
Then he got up and ran quickly towards the depths of the desert.
Dolma was about to say something, only to hear a scream.
Tashi Phuntsok, who had just run a short distance away, was suddenly hit by an arrow in his back and fell in a pool of blood.
He looked back and couldn't believe it, because the person who poisoned him turned out to be one of his own personal dead soldiers!
Tashi Phuntsok's eyes widened, his mouth open, and before he could speak, streams of blood gushed out.
The arrows of these arrows are all quenched with poison.
As long as he is hit by an arrow, he will definitely die, not to mention that this arrow hits his heart, and he can't die anymore.
Dolma didn't react either, and looked at the dead man.
I saw that not only this dead man, but the rest of the dead men knelt down one after another to beg for forgiveness.
Chongning was puzzled at first, but when he saw everyone's kneeling, he suddenly understood.
The patriarch could be merciful to Tashi Phuntsok, but he could not be merciful to everyone.
These dead soldiers, only by killing Tashi Phuntsok can they show their loyalty, and they can be regarded as handing over their names.
The patriarch sighed and waved his hand.
He was tired and didn't want to think about anything else.
After such a civil strife, the major forces in the Gumo tribe carried out an unprecedented change.
The high priest died, several priests, more than half of them were killed or wounded, and those who were alive were also put on death row.
The chief elder of the Council of Elders died, and the other two elders were temporarily locked in a confinement cell.
The only constant is the patriarch.
The patriarch, who was seriously ill and dying, was getting better and regained his former demeanor.
For the next two days, it was unusually quiet in the Gumer.
Chongning and the others were extremely comfortable in the clan, and good wine and meat were served.
They are the greatest contributors to this accident, and the courtesy they received is also unprecedented.
In the past two days, Xuan Zhen has been lying on the stone bed, eating cumin-flavored barbecue and drinking cool chilled watermelon, and he is reluctant to leave the room.
At noon, Chongning and the others had another full meal.
Duan Jingzhi said, "Brother Ning, when are we going to leave here." ”
Xuan Zhenle asked rhetorically, "What are you doing when you leave here?" Delicious and delicious. ”
Duan Jingzhi looked at him with a happy look, and the roots of her teeth itched.
"We're not here to eat or drink!"
Yang Haoyu groaned and said, "It's almost time to recuperate, it's time to set off." ”
Their purpose is the hiding place of Jiang Zeng's two families, that is, the Western Xia Tomb in the desert!
Xuan Zhen was not in a hurry at all, and said: "There is a lack of food and drink in the desert, and it is not too late for us to eat and drink here." ”
Duan Jingzhi walked over directly and was about to grab his ears.
At that moment, there was a sound of footsteps, the wooden door of the stone house opened, and Dolma walked in.
In the past day, Chongning didn't see Zhuoma, and said, "Zhuoma, we may have to leave tomorrow." ”
Zhuoma was stunned, he didn't expect them to leave so early, and said, "You guys stay for another day, tomorrow our clan will hold a ceremony to worship the gods." ”
Duan Jingzhi asked, "Sacrifice to the gods? What is that? ”
Xuan Zhen said leisurely: "If I didn't guess wrong, Zhuoma should be promoted to high priest." ”
Chongning's eyes lit up, he was very surprised, and said, "Really? ”
With a smile on his face, Dolma said, "Yes, my father dreamed of a sign from the gods that made me the newest high priest of the Gumer clan. ”
"At the same time, the Council of Elders will re-elect tomorrow, and the Patriarch will elect Lang Jie as the Chief Elder."
When everyone heard this, they were amazed.
It makes sense for Dolma to come as the high priest.
However, Lang Jay, the son of the former High Priest, was involved in the rebellion that day, making him the Chief Elder.
This incident made everyone feel incredible.
Dolma said: "Lang Jie's character is not bad, he has been bewitched by demons before, and it is very suitable for him to be the chief elder. ”
This is only a superficial statement, but in fact, it is impossible to eliminate all the power of the high priest.
The power of the high priest's family should not be underestimated in the Gumo clan.
In order to appease their emotions, making Lang Jie an elder was a compromise solution.
However, this is all a matter within the Gumo clan, and outsiders such as Chongning can't influence it, just listen to it.
Chongning had originally decided to leave tomorrow, but when Dolma invited them to the god worship ceremony, he couldn't help but look at the others.
Duan Jingzhi said, "Then let's stay for another day." ”
It doesn't matter if it's true, you can stay as long as you want.
Yang Haoyu groaned and said, "Yes, by the way, let's prepare more food and water." ”
In the past, they encountered Lao Liu Tou and a sandstorm, and the food and water were lost.
This time you must bring more and be prepared.
Dolma had already thought that the day before, he had asked his people to prepare enough food and water for them, as well as a few large camels.
After Chongning heard the camel, his expression was a little sentimental, and he couldn't help but think of the camel king.
The camel king died for himself.
Duan Jingzhi looked at Chongning's expression and understood what he was thinking, coughed lightly, and said, "Zhuoma's promotion to high priest is a happy event." ”
"However, we have nothing to give, but we can only sincerely bless you and your people."
At this time, a few of them didn't have anything, and there were really no congratulatory gifts.
Dolma smiled and said, "Thank you for your sincere blessings. ”
And so it passed another day.
In the early morning of the next day, the sound of gongs and drums resounded throughout the desert.
Early in the morning, I saw a column of people and horses appearing on the street.
Their costumes are very peculiar, and they look like festive costumes.
Heavy oil paint, brightly colored clothes, on either side of the crowd, there are also teams of different livestock.
Chongning and the others, standing at the door, looked over there, feeling an unusually novelty.
The sedan chair at the front is all made of green grass and flowers, like a sedan chair for marrying a wife.
In the sedan chair, it was Dolma in full costume.
Dolma's face, wearing a strange colorful mask, sits in it dignifiedly.
Duan Jingzhi looked at it and said, "Zhuoma's appearance is a bit of a marriage." ”
Xuan Zhen smiled and said, "It was originally a marriage." ”
Duan Jingzhi was stunned and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Lu Pingliu said: "High priest, it means to marry a god. The high priest's ceremony of worship to the gods is equivalent to a wedding celebration with the gods. ”
Duan Jingzhi nodded and said, "So that's the case." ”
On both sides of this column, the pace of everyone is also extremely weird, a bit like a puppet, back and forth, very clumsy.
Maybe the rituals of the primitive tribes are similar.
The whole ceremony was very long. From early morning to noon, it seems to be singing a big play.
At this time, Dolma stood on the altar, and the priests around her were constantly offering flowers, goat's milk, and livestock.
After a while, the patriarch walked up with a square wooden box.
All the clansmen present looked up with an extremely pious attitude.
Chongning also looked over, and inside the wooden box, it should be the divine stone of the Gumo clan.
Duan Jingzhi said in a low voice, "It's a divine stone, right?" ”
Chongning responded and said, "You take a closer look, is it a colorful jadeite." ”
In terms of jadeite, Duan Jingzhi is still quite good.
I saw that the patriarch held the wooden box, slowly walked to Zhuoma's side, and then opened the wooden box.
Flashes of light flickered out.
At the same time, all the Gumers knelt down.
There were only a few people in Chongning, standing in place, a little abrupt.
Inside the wooden box, it was indeed the divine stone.
The sacred stone is colorful, extremely dazzling, and under the illumination of the sun, it looks extremely colorful!
At this moment, a strange sound of music came from a distance.
Chongning turned his head to look, frowning slightly.
I saw that Lang Jie led a group of people and horses, rushing towards this side, quickly.
Each person rides a camel, fierce and full of fighting spirit!
Thundered! The caravan splashed dust and rushed in!
Some people died, but not completely......
