Chapter 263: The Night of the Sacrifice (Dusk)

Everything is hazy, the night is deep, and the Milky Way is evolving.

After dusk, dusk came, and it was already night.

Say goodbye to the ancient gods who have sheltered the Akafang clan for a long time, and then, the Akafang clan will usher in a new totem.

Behind the Lamb is a painted painting,

Except for the lambs who were screaming on the high platform, all the other people who participated in the sacrifice did not have any cheers before the sacrifice began, but their emotions were agitated and forcibly suppressed.

Yu Yu grabbed a handful of grass and stuffed it into the mouth of the lamb, and then the lamb began to eat with tears in his eyes.

"Huh!"

Is this the decapitation coming?

The lamb felt that he was afraid of dying, and regretted it, he knew that when he moved, he should have run away, and he really couldn't see the comfort in front of him, and now that the totem was replaced, it would also be roasted.

I'm not really human, but you guys are real dogs!

The lamb was weeping for the "Last Supper", and when its voice also stopped, the old patriarch was finally able to stand in the empty place where the totem pole should have been placed, and speak to everyone.

"Our people.... After today's night, tomorrow, we will have a new life. ”

The old patriarch looked at everyone: "Including all of you, not the new clansmen of the same totem. ”

"The years have changed. ”

That's what it says to the people who have migrated.

Izuku looked at the tall flame platform, the trees crackled and burned, the high platform was lined with braziers on both sides, the preparations for the sacrifice were complete, and the busy people began to gather here from all sides.

Jiuli Beizheng also looked at the scene in front of him, did not make any comments, and was silent.

Yes, the years have changed.

Everything that has happened has become a part of the years, unconsciously.

Recorded in bamboo slips, in memory, in the dust, on murals, in dances, or sung in songs.

The history of the ancient ancestors is simple and simple, but it is also easy to lose.

Chi Songzi, Wu Pan, and even the Ji Witch Lord, who had not yet returned, all stood up, right on the edge of the totem pole of the god Youhou.

And Huang Liyin and other warriors from the three mountains and four fields, that is, the group of warriors who joined at the beginning, were also here, they were originally going to go back, but when they heard that the fire of the Chifang clan was resurrected, they stayed for the time being, to see this last grand sacrifice.

However, Danzhu and Uncle Xi are not here, Danzhu has just returned, and Uncle Xi seems to have broken his promise, he has not returned from the Central Plains.

But now it seems that the Central Plains is at a time when internal struggle is raging.

Dayi set off from his ancestral land, and he could already see the blazing fire.

"I want to reprimand the people of Chifang first. ”

The old patriarch said: "The ancient gods have sheltered us for a long time, in the war with the Longdi clan, too many people died, and finally, the powerful warriors who escorted us away, that is, your father, brother, compatriots, relatives, when they crossed the river, they were submerged by the great water, and finally buried under the waves. ”

"The water of the great river, the cause of that disaster, has now been determined. ”

"A monkey..... He left Wushan and swam along the river to Tongbai Mountain near Dahuai, where the river suddenly rose when we came, and that was what it did....."

"We can't take revenge, and the other side doesn't know about it and doesn't care about us. ”

"This is the mountains and seas, and it is us, at any time, that there may be more terrible disasters that befall us. ”

"But we still live here, praying to the stars and our ancestors. ”

At this time, the old patriarch had already entered the state of reciting sacrificial words.

Yu Zai is below, ready to go up.

Wu's sheep's head jade was worn around his waist, and he wore a silver bracelet on his hand, which was a gift from Chaisang Mountain, and the sacrificial costume was given by the girls.

"Wu, we knew there would be this day, so we sewed new sacrificial clothes. ”

Yu Jing held her stomach, and the other girls on the side presented two new sets of clothes for Yu Zai, which were sewn with deer skin and silk respectively, and the deer skin was used as a sacrifice to the ancient ancestors.

The antlers were decorated, the tusks of the boar and the fur of the bear were patched on the outside, and in short, the sacrificial costume looked a bit savage.

Unlike the Xunshan clan and the Sushi clan, who used cyan bird feathers to make decorations on long robes, which looked like a god, after wearing this new sacrificial costume, Yu Zai thought that if he wore this dress as a god, it would really look like an evil god in the Lingnan region.

It must be a god known for his bravery.

The new silk clothes are modeled after the clothes of the Central Plains, and in the eyes of Yu Zai, the style is somewhat similar to the wide-sleeved clothes of the Qin and Han dynasties, and only the people in the Central Plains, especially the Taotang land, wear this kind of clothes.

However, compared to the clothes in the land of Taotang, it is more simple.

"We asked Ah Hong, who was weaving the sacrificial silkworm clothes at that time, and Ah Hong came over and told us about the sacrificial costumes in the land of Taotang. ”

Danzhu not only can't control his hands, but also can't control his mouth.....

He said, "The people of the land of Tao Tang wore this style of clothing, and sacrificed to the ancestors and the heavens and the earth, and in the morning when the sky was not light, the sky was dark, and the top was like the sky, so they used the dark color, and the earth was yellow, and the bottom was like the earth, that is, yellow. ”

In this era, dyeing clothes is generally made of natural minerals or plants, such as the Classic of Mountains and Seas, there are many stones that can dye clothes cyan, red, and black, and the earliest origin of dyeing is actually very ancient.

In the Upper Paleolithic period, there were already tribes who knew how to dye clothes, using hematite powder.

Yu Zai took over this simple sacrificial dress, but although it was simple, it was a clothing that witnessed the new era and had great significance.

Yu Zai is preparing here, and the old patriarch is still telling the words of sacrifice.

We have gone far, far, we have walked for too long, and today, the broken totem will be reborn, and the ancient gods of the sheep-headed human body will bless us in the sky!"

"The new totem is the magnificent sun that burns and is eternal and immortal!"

"When a light goes out and night falls, but the night passes!"

"So we lit our fire, in this dark night, looking for a place to settle down, so we did not live up to the years, and the years did not fail us!"

"Tonight, when the dawn is about to come, the light that pierces the night will rise from the far east!"

Among the mountains and seas, there are not many gods with sheep's heads and human bodies, which are widely present in the Dongshan Sutra system, and the human body is a sheep's horn god, recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas": the head of the three classics of the east time, from the mountain of the corpse Hu to the mountain of Wugao, where the nine mountains, 6,900 miles. Their gods are all human beings with horns, and to sacrifice them, a sheep needs to be sacrificed.

The god of the Akafang clan is the god of this kind of sheep's horn human body, but in terms of physiognomy, the whole head is more like a sheep and different from a human, just like a dragon-faced god, some of them are like people as a whole, and some are like dragons.....

So the Lamb is tied to the stage for a purpose.

Behind the lamb, a simple painting of the sheep-headed god "watched" at every member of the Akakata clan.

At this time, Yu Zai put on the animal skin robe, offered three animals, and gave it to the departed god first!

"The god who sheltered us, Envy!"

The old patriarch led the tribesmen to pray to the gods and bid farewell to the position of the lamb, and everyone also made a prayer posture, kneeling on one knee with a solemn one-knee salute, one hand clenched into a fist, against the earth, and the head was deeply bowed!

Farewell to the gods!

This is the name of the sheep-headed god of the Chifang clan, the word Xian, in ancient times, the main meaning is "abundance", that is, the meaning of abundance and wealth, the god is as his name, he is in charge of the Gao Mountain under the Lan Zhiye, the name of this field, the name of the field, Lan refers to the little fat sheep who was just five months old.
