In the ensuing conversation, the grinning began to gush, and it was no wonder that the number of outsiders in the village was scarce, and the people of the village either knew about these things or were not interested in them, and he could not find someone to confide in to prove his worth, and he must have very much needed a listener to listen to the stories that he thought he was working so hard to protect.

"Our ancestors have lived for generations near Dog Town, where life is miserable and resources are scarce.... But we learned how to live in harmony with dogs in a difficult life, we domesticated them, and then made them our faithful companions... Our ancestors discovered the spirit in their observation of the world... Then we get a glimpse of the reality of the world! ”

In front of Andy, this guy began to talk to Andy like a cultist, and he began to talk about his tribe's spirit theory, which made Andy's eyes wide and unconscious.

"Spirit! Yes, it's the Spirit, I know you outsiders don't want to believe it, but that's okay, because whether you believe it or not, the Spirit is there, they are there and they are watching everything, listening, whispering, but you can't see them, you can't touch them, ordinary people can't know that they exist, but they do! ”

Andy watched the grin get more and more excited, raised his hands and began to dance strangely, and his whole body began to become chattering.

"Spirits can be born in mountains and rivers, spirits can also be born in birds and animals, our deceased ancestors, those who are unwilling to die, they can all be incarnated as spirits, they hover around us in another life form, observe us, influence us.... They will help them because they have pleased, or they may punish them for angering them. ”

Andy's eyebrows furrowed, and a memory in his mind was suddenly triggered, and he seemed to have heard something like that.

"Hmm.... I don't know why, but I vaguely remember that I visited a place when I was traveling to the west, and the natives there seem to have similar sayings, but they think that they have a way to make potential people have the ability to see and even communicate with the spirit to adjust their behavior, how do you do that? ”

Grinning and pointing at the dog.

"It is precisely because what we know is correct that we all have the same understanding, and although we cannot find a way for us to communicate with the spirit ourselves, we have found an indirect means, and that is the dog! These animals have a stronger spirituality than humans, and that's because of our innate ability to think under the shadows of our minds, and dogs are born with spirits and are able to communicate with spirits, so we can learn about spirits and their preferences for good and evil by establishing a deep connection with dogs. ”

With a grin, he lifted a half-finished leather from one of the workbenches, draped it over his body and began to dance an ancient dance, his mouth snorting.

"Dogs are the medium through which we communicate with spirits, and through them we know a lot, you know? Spirits also have thinking and wisdom, and there are good and bad among them, and many times, evil spirits have no good intentions towards us, and will only want to constantly attack us, in vain to destroy us completely. In order to defend against them, we have to find a way.... At this time, we discovered that the fur of dogs is also spiritual, and the residual energy on the fur of those dead dogs can help us to exorcise evil spirits. ”

He removed the intricately crafted dog skin, which was full of strange symbols.

"We peel off the skins of those dead companions and make them into protective spirit skins, hang them on high places, and with the blessing of the ancestral spirits, the evil spirits will be kept out and will no longer be able to invade us."

When Andy heard this, it dawned on him that those dogskin flags were a symbol used to ward off disasters.

"But you haven't told me how the hell you got all the way from Denver to this side, it's a long way from there, have you?"

Grinned and put the leather on his back back back into place.

"At the mention of this, it is a big deal, our ancestors called that event the Great Spiritual Calamity, and the evil spirits that we had been driving away and suppressing with the protective spirit skin had finally gathered..... Originally, with the help of the ancestral spirits, we could have achieved victory, but... But.."

A look of hatred appeared on his grinning face.

"It is said that it was because the chief of the Dog Village was a woman that caused the wrath of the ancestral spirits, who turned their backs on us and refused to continue to protect us.... The evil spirits created a terrible red hurricane that uprooted the village of the Dogs... The survivors were desperately chased southwest by the terrible wind until we arrived and were taken in by the Blackfoot Tribe. ”

Speaking of which, he grinned and let out a long sigh.

"The Dog Village was originally no smaller than the Blackfoot Village, but because of that terrible disaster, we only have so many people left today.... To make matters worse, as time went on, everyone became indifferent to the culture of the Dog Village, and even preferred to make music. Although they are still learning dog training from the teacher, they don't pay attention to those rules at all, if I also give up these things passed down from my ancestors, I'm afraid that the dog village will completely lose the protection of the ancestral spirit, it will be terrible, there will definitely be more terrible disasters! ”

Andy listened to the grinning story and had some comments in his heart, but now that he was so excited, he was embarrassed to contradict him.

"Uh-huh.... It's interesting, but I actually have a question I've always wanted to ask you, why do you want to call it the Dog Village? You are even willing to treat dogs as your equals, even to the point of sacredness, thinking that they can still protect you after death, why do you name your village as if you were going to kill all the dogs you see? ”

“... You know, most tribes don't have an official name for their village at all, and when we mention our village, we say with love that it's our ancestral land, our mother village, and our village. It was only when we started to communicate with the outside world that we began to pay attention to the question of what exactly to name our village. ”

A grin pointed to the protective spirit skins that flew in the wind outside.

"When we started to communicate with the people outside, we learned that they had already given us names, and the ignorant people called us hangers because they saw us hanging the dog's skins and thought that our custom was to hang the dog on a high place.... It's not a good name, but it's spread all around, and we've started calling ourselves that way for convenience. ”

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
