Chapter 2: Awakening (1)
"Let's go, it's time to go back, or Eminem will come out to find us again. ”
Zishu took the bud's hand, walked through the square, and saw a beautiful woman standing in front of her wooden house.
"Eminem. "Eminem"
Shishu pulled the bud and ran over happily.
"You're back, Zishu, no one bullied you, right?"
When Aoba saw the two of them coming back, there was a flash of joy in her eyes, and she nervously pulled her daughter over to check up and down, afraid that she had been wronged.
When I saw her little face clean, I breathed a sigh of relief.
The daughter is slower than the average person to react to birth, and she used to be bullied in the tribe.
She and Meng don't have so much time to take care of the children because of tribal affairs.
For Zishu, she is a little biased.
Fortunately, God blessed, her Zishu returned to normal.
"Eminem, Sister is fine when she sees it, why don't you ask me?"
Seeing his face, Aoba changed his previous gentleness, raised his hand and poked him away, and said angrily: "You went to fight again?
Bud's wound was injured for the second time, and the pain made him twitch: "Eminem, you light." ”
"What are you fighting for this time?" asked Aoba with a straight face.
This little son fights twice for three days, and she also has a headache.
"They scolded Sister Ah for being a fool. Bud said angrily.
When Aoba heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he snorted coldly: "Wait for your eldest brother to come back to find your eldest brother." ”
Although they can't do it, it's the same to let Xun teach those who talk a lot.
Zishu heard her Eminem's words on the side, and a smile flashed in her eyes, her Eminem is so protective and so cute.
While I was having lunch, I rushed back.
Shishu drank rice cereal and ate barbecue while listening to the conversation between Aoba and Takeshi.
"Tomorrow is the day of the spring festival and the awakening of the children, are you ready over there?" he asked Aoba, who was sitting next to him, as he took a bite of a piece of barbecue.
Aoba paused with his hand holding the bowl, his face was embarrassed, and he pursed his lips and said, "The elixir is still missing, I hope they can gain something tomorrow."
If it really doesn't work, I can only change to ordinary medicinal herbs, which will be much less effective. ”
"Wind, thunder, spear, and bravery, the four of them have all taken people to the inner perimeter, and they should have something to gain.
However, it is better to prepare ordinary medicinal materials, in case there is no elixir, you can only use ordinary medicinal materials. ”
After a sudden pause, he looked at Zishu on the side and said, "Zishu is also 7 years old this year, so let's participate in the awakening ceremony together tomorrow." ”
When Zishu heard about himself, he immediately asked, "Daddy, what kind of awakening ceremony?"
Without waiting for him to speak, the bud on the side replied: "I know, I know, the awakening ritual is, awakening the life soul, with the life soul, we can cultivate." That's right, Daddy. ”
Soul of life?
"What is a life soul, and how do you awaken it?" Zishu said with a puzzled face.
"You'll find out tomorrow. Zishu, you just need to remember that after entering the blood pool tomorrow, you can hold on for as long as you can. Aoba admonished.
Seeing that they didn't want to say more, Zishu answered and stopped asking.
After lunch, Aoba and Takeshi hurried to get busy again.
After Zishu finished eating, he went out and walked around the top of the mountain.
The Qingyan tribe was built on a high mountain, how tall is it? With her current foot strength, it will take about an hour to walk from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain.
She had been to the foot of the hill once, and it was said that it was the place where the civilians lived, and it looked a little dirty, and the people were listless.
On the mountainside were the places where the tribal warriors and their families lived, and they lived a relatively affluent life.
At the top of the hill is an L-shaped stone platform surrounded by rows of wooden houses.
Her family lives on the back of the mountain, and the surrounding families are all tribal centurions.
On the left hand side of the mountain wall is the council hall, as well as the storehouse and the library cabinet.
On the right hand side of the mountain wall and on the opposite side of the mountain wall lived the family members of some of the captains.
In the middle of the stone platform is a square, and in the middle of the square is a mighty tiger statue.
On the left hand side of the square, a small half of the surrounding area is the martial arts training ground.
Zishu walked around the square, thinking about tomorrow's spring festival and awakening.
She used to be chaotic, and there was no image of these things in her mind.
She was quickly mixed up in the afternoon, and after eating, she was driven back to her room by Aoba to sleep.
She originally thought that she would not be able to sleep, but who knows, as soon as she slept until dawn, she woke up again and heard the commotion outside.
"Zishu woke up, I was about to wake you up. Come, put this cloak on, this is what your father specially called for you last year. Aoba shook off a fiery red cloak and draped it over Shishu's body.
Zishu touched the cloak, it was smooth and soft, she turned around, and asked with a smile, "Eminem, is it good-looking?"
Aoba nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good-looking, you look like me, so naturally you look good." ”
Zishu snorted and laughed, "Well, I'm like Eminem, so we're both good-looking." ”
Aoba bent down to straighten Zishu's clothes, took Zishu's hand, and said, "Let's go, the warriors of the tribe are back." The spring festival and the awakening ritual are about to begin. ”
Zishu followed Aoba out of the door, and sure enough, there were a lot of people in the square.
Aoba led Zishu to the front row near the stone statue, and after a while, Zishu saw her daddy come over with a tiger head staff and a tiger head mask.
Behind him, there were warriors wearing various animal masks.
Zishu counted, and there were forty-nine of these masked people.
Suddenly walked to the bottom of the tiger statue and raised the tiger head staff in his hand, and everyone in the square suddenly fell silent.
Meng bent down at the statue and shouted respectfully: "Thank you for the protection of the ancestors, the spring festival begins!"
"Spring Festival Begins!"
"Spring Festival Begins!"
"Spring Festival Begins!"
Zishu's ears seemed to hear several echoes.
As soon as the words fell, the crowd suddenly separated from the middle, and Zishu was also pulled aside by Aoba.
Knock knock
Knock knock
Six warriors, one carrying a ferocious beast, walked in from outside the square.
Stepping on the stone slab, there was a thumping sound, which showed how heavy the beast was.
"Roar"
"Roar"
Zishu looked at these strange-looking monsters, and his eyes widened.
The monsters were still alive, their limbs tied to the bottom of the statue.
"Thank you for the protection of our ancestors!"
He saluted the statue respectfully, then picked up the big drum on the side and beat it rhythmically.
Below him, the forty-nine warriors who were standing, heard the sound of the drums and followed suit.
They were imitating the movements of various animals and beasts, or somersaulting, or jumping, or hunting.
It can be seen from the actions that they are happy, they are excited, and there is respect for their ancestors.
As they jumped, the animal masks on their faces lit up slightly.
Zishu seemed to see a tiger come to life from the statue.
It opened its bloody mouth and sucked at the six monsters on the ground, and six white rays of light flew out of the bodies of these monsters and flew towards the statue.
It all happened so fast, almost in the blink of an eye, and the statue was still the same statue.
Zishu stood there stunned, feeling that he hadn't woken up yet, and was still dreaming.
"Zishu, did you hear me?" Aoba pushed Zishu and asked with some concern.
This girl won't be stupid again, right?
"Eminem, is the spring festival over?" asked Zishu, shaking his head, coming back to his senses.
"Well, the spring festival is over, and the awakening ritual is about to begin. I said, I'll go over to mix the medicine later, and you'll just stand here obediently. Aoba said.
"Oh. ”
As the two spoke, they jerked to the foot of the statue and pressed it down on a stone.
"Click"
The stone slabs in the square suddenly clicked to the sides, revealing a five-pointed star-shaped stone pit.
When Zishu heard the click, his gaze shifted.
This pit is about a little more than a meter deep and about five or six meters in diameter.
As soon as the stone pit appeared, the warriors who had been dancing just now went over and moved the fierce beasts that had worshiped their ancestors before.
Now that these beasts are dead, they directly pulled out the dagger hanging from their waists and began to bleed.
The blood of these six monsters was obviously not enough, and later a few more warriors came in.
"Enough. ”
After half a pool of blood in the blood pool, he raised his hand to stop the warrior who was still going to carry the fierce beast, nodded towards Aoba and said, "Let's start." ”
Aoba glanced sideways at Zishu, and when he saw that she was obedient, he walked over.
Meng took the stone box from the hands of the others, took out five fierce beast cores from it, and placed them on the five corners next to the five-pointed star pool.
