Chapter 309: Faith Lives On

They asked many people, but they didn't see the eldest lady, they asked about the guards around, and they never saw the eldest lady go out, so they disappeared in the tribe.

"Will the eldest lady go to find the old patriarch?" Lu Chen guessed.

The two nodded when they heard this, the clan is too big, the territory is continuous, and it is impossible for the guards to monitor every corner, for the eldest lady who has lived in the mountains all her life, it is not difficult to leave the clan.

The faces of the three of them were ugly, and they looked at the Lingstomp tribesmen who came to hear the news, and Zhongxu slapped them on the cheek.

"What are you doing?" An old man walked out of the crowd.

"I ......" in Xu said.

"Everyone knows, it's not your fault for this, the old patriarch of Ling Stomp grew up with us old guys, and he watched you grow up, Ling Stomp the entire tribe, there are no clansmen he doesn't know, the old guy wants to go out for a walk, and no one can stop him." The old man spoke, comforting everyone.

"But the eldest lady is ......" Zhongxu felt very guilty, if he hadn't let the old patriarch of Ling Stomp alone, he wouldn't have gone missing.

"If your aunt is here, we are worried, and now your aunt has disappeared, which means that the old guy is fine!" Another old man spoke, and everyone was stunned.

The old patriarch and his wife have lived all their lives, and they don't need words, just a look and a movement, they can know everything about each other, they are too familiar, and they already have a heart.

Looking at the empty stone house, the two old women stepped forward, put the unfinished rattan basket next to the stone chair into the stone house, closed the wooden door, shook their heads and disappeared into the crowd.

"Zhongxu Ling stomp!" A loud shout suddenly sounded, and it was the old man from the beginning.

"The juniors are here!" Hearing this, Zhongxu suddenly stood up straight.

"As the only adult male of the Ling Stomping Clan, do you dare to take over the position of Patriarch and protect the Ling Stomping Tribe for the rest of your life?" The old man walked on his crutches and pestle, with a serious face.

Zhongxu was a little confused, and he hadn't recovered from the self-blame of the old patriarch's disappearance, and suddenly heard the old man say this, and subconsciously shook his head.

"You ......" the old man raised his cane, and another old man stepped forward and hurriedly held it down.

"Zhongxu, the old patriarch is gone, even if he is still in the clan, there is not much time left, everyone feels the pain of this time, no one wants the old guy to suffer any longer, maybe, this is the relief he needs!"

Zhongxu nodded, his eyes were a little red, the old patriarch watched him grow up, in the clan, although the tribe is small and life is hard, but everyone is a family and gets along harmoniously, in his eyes, the old patriarch of Ling Stomping is his own grandfather.

"There are no adult males left in the Ling Stomping Clan, you are the only hope, the clan cannot be without a patriarch for a day, you also have this ability!" The old man spoke again.

Hearing this, Zhongxu glanced at the people around him, the number was not much, less than fifty people, almost the number of the entire Ling Trampling tribe, looking at the familiar faces, looking at himself with hope, one by one the children clenched their fists and raised their fists.

A young man in his early teens looked at Zhongxu with a resolute face: "Brother Zhongxu, you can do it!"

"Yes!" The one who opened his mouth was a child estimated to be only about three years old, and his milky voice made the heavy atmosphere a little relaxed.

"Do you dare?" Another old man burst into the air again.

"Dare, dare, dare, Zhongxu Ling stomp dare!" A loud shout rang out in the small area of the Ling Stomping Clan.

"Okay, worthy of being the son of the Ling Stomping Clan!" The two old men spoke almost at the same time, looking at each other with a smile on their faces.

Around the "good ......", children were boiling, and women's eyes were red, "The Lingstomp tribe is immortal, and it will last forever!"

"Forever!"

The shouts rang out, and the tribe, which was less than fifty people, raised their right fists, and even the children who could just speak shouted in a milky voice, which was infected by the atmosphere.

"Forever!"

The shouts seemed to be contagious, spreading around the Ling Trampling tribe, and after a while, this area, the mountains, and wherever the people of the Five Tribes lived, they all involuntarily raised their right fists and shouted.

"Forever!"

Two simple words, ringing

The mountains made the mountains tremble, the clouds and mist rolled in the sky, and in the mountains, all the beasts had long been silent.

Looking around, there are only the people of the five tribes who are chanting, at this moment, they let go of everything in their hands, let go of the estrangement between the five tribes, and only survive.

"Perhaps, I know that the five clans live in the poor mountains and bad waters, and how can they still be passed down in the long river of time after experiencing the battles of various tribes!" Lu Chen whispered, even if he was firm in his mind, he was affected at the moment, and he couldn't help but want to raise his right fist and shout.

This is a kind of faith, which is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of the five ethnic groups and cannot be erased.

Such a race is too terrifying, they are not afraid of life and death, as long as they can pass on the fire, they will be fierce, just like facing a strange and powerful black fog, one by one the tribal men sacrifice themselves one after another.

"Is this the reason why the Lu family in the lonely city has been able to stand in the lonely city for so many years?" Lu Chen recalled the secret room in the back mountain, it was not a secret room, it was also a kind of faith, as long as they were firm, a generation would eventually return to the clan with the entire lonely city Lu family.

"Something's wrong! Quick!"

"Quick, everyone hurry up to the sacrificial hall!"

In the middle of the night, when it had not yet completely fallen silent, the sound of loud shouts suddenly resounded in the sky, making this rare quiet group boil again.

After a short time, the torches were lit up one by one, and from a distance, it looked like stars embedded in the mountains, which was dazzling.

"What's going on?"

"In the middle of the night, could it be a foreign invasion?"

One voice after another sounded, everyone was puzzled, they didn't know what was going on, everything was normal in the group, and nothing had changed.

"I don't know, let's all go to the main hall of worship!" Someone spoke, and when everyone heard this, they all walked towards a huge mountain.

"Brother Lu, let's go together!" Ba Ming greeted Lu Chen and said.

When Lu Chen heard this, he hesitated a little, this is the place of the five clans, the sacrificial hall, it is undoubtedly the important place of a clan, as an outsider, it is obviously inappropriate for him to appear in the sacrificial hall of the five clans.

"It's okay, this is just our Miao clan's land, you have great kindness to many of our Miao tribes, and you have the qualifications to enter the sacrificial hall!" Babin said.

"Let's go!" Zhongxu also rushed to call Lu Chen together.

Hearing this, Lu Chen no longer hesitated, he really wanted to see what else this race, besides faith, had something for them to pass on, after all, in the face of absolute strength, faith was sometimes still vulnerable.

Faith is just the driving force for them to move forward, which makes people firm, but it may not be absolutely successful.

Just like the Lu family in the lonely city, generations of people have a firm belief in returning to the clan, and after so many years, it still hasn't come true.

Following the flow of people, Lu Chen and the Miao people walked slowly, and after a while, they appeared in front of a giant peak, the giant peak could not be seen, and when they looked up, they could not see its peak.

"This is the holy land of our Miao people, and it will not be opened without special circumstances!" Babin explained.

"The relationship between your five tribes seems to be a bit complicated!" Lu Chen suddenly spoke.

When Ba Ming heard this, his face was a little embarrassed, and he smiled bitterly: "Yes, years of civil strife have made the five tribes have a lot of gaps, although we call ourselves the five tribes, we prefer to call ourselves Miao people in our hearts!"

Zhongxu nodded, "Our five clans are divided into many small tribes, take our Miao clan as an example, there are many small tribes below, and the few even fall to only a few families, although there will be internal fighting in the territory of the Miao clan, but most of them will not have casualties, but the five major clans are different, that is the real killer!"

Lu Chen nodded, he had heard that the life of the five clans was not easy, but he never thought that it would be so chaotic that in order to survive, the five clans killed each other.

It is rumored that in a distant time, they were originally of the same origin, but in the end they were fratricidal.

"It's all about survival!" Passers-by sighed and looked helpless.

This is the living environment of the five clans, fighting all the time, fighting with heaven and earth, and fighting with all things!

All the way forward, the three of them chatted casually, for the five clans, they also had a deeper understanding, looking at the nearby giant peak, Lu Chen's heart suddenly palpitated, this feeling was very sudden, there was no warning, just an instant

Suddenly, that feeling disappeared again, like an illusion.

Glancing around, he tried to find out what was causing him to palpate, a feeling he had never felt before, but in an instant, he felt like he had died.

A feeling of horror that I had never felt before, just for a moment, my back sweated like rain.

"Brother Lu, why is your face so pale all of a sudden?" Ba Ming didn't know why, and was a little worried.

Hearing this, Lu Chen retracted his mind and shook his head slowly, he didn't find anything abnormal, his whole body was tense, and he didn't dare to relax a little.

In front of the giant peak, there are more and more figures, spreading around the giant peak, and the night is pitch dark, and there is no end in sight.

Under the giant peak, a mountain range has been hollowed out and turned into a square, so many Miao people come that even at night, this square is dusty, and the eyes are full of dust, making people unable to see the distance clearly.

The breeze was blowing, and in a group of peaks like the 100,000 Great Mountains, it was normal for a breeze to blow occasionally, but the moment the breeze swept by, Lu Chen's whole body trembled, his eyes condensed, and he looked at the top of the cliff that had been split.

Opening up such an open square in the middle of the mountainside is really like a fool moving a mountain, if it weren't for the huge mountain peak, if it were replaced by an ordinary mountain, the mountain peak would have been razed to the ground.

Eyes condensed, looking at the top of the cliff, there, a piece of bluestone that can only be encircled by several people is inlaid on it, I don't know when, a black shadow is suspended between the bluestones, looking at it from a distance, it is like a saint shrouded in a round of sun, and there is a faint circle of ripples spreading.

It's already dark night, and the figure on the bluestone is dressed in black, if you don't feel it, it's really not easy to see its figure if you don't look carefully.

"High Priest!" At the front, someone suddenly spoke and slowly knelt down.

"High Priest!" The continuous sound sounded one after another, and the crowd knelt down like the tide of the sea, and even Ba Ming and Zhong Xu both shouted respectfully when they heard this, and the high priest bowed respectfully and knelt on the ground.
