Chapter 294: Sacrifice
Before leaving the Southern Wilderness, Bai Yu helped Yunyao Ancient Village and its small village to regulate the rain and mountain springs.
Where there is a lot of rain, the rain clouds are driven away, the mountain range where the terraces are located is conditioned to prevent heavy rain from damaging the terraces, and the mountains and rivers that may break out of flash floods are returned to the river valleys, and the mountain people who worship themselves are blessed with their talents, and the magnificent terraces that countless mountain people in the southern wilderness rely on for their survival are protected, and the seedlings are moistened to ensure a good harvest.
Spells don't have to be used to kill people and set fires, God has given you the ability to compete for fame and fortune is too superficial.
No matter what kind of spells of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, they can be good, killing and snatching resources, intrigue, and intriguing, and no one has really become an immortal, and after many years, they can't escape the life of a handful of loess, so why bother.
A certain snake mentality is super good.
The snake is long, and it can't escape the fate of five hundred years, since it is so easy, wouldn't it be better, when encountering a strong enemy, drill into the underground dark river, or find a place to live, and wait for the strong enemy to retreat, secretly destroy his feng shui and destroy his ancestral tomb, why bother to fight and kill, kill and injure harmony, and cultivate immortals in civilization.
There are no three feet in the land of Jiuli, and there are no three sunny days in the flat sky, and it is extremely important to cultivate the fields.
The busy mountain people in the terraces saw a giant snake that haunted the rain curtain and mountain fog, and knew that it was the holy beast of the ancient village that blessed them.
A small village with a population of less than 300 was shown to express gratitude, slaughtering pigs and sheep and setting up an altar to sacrifice.
The southern wilderness is steep, and most of the village tribes are built on the hillside.
Early in the morning, the rooster is dawning, the mountain people have to get up early with the old and the young to carry the tribute to the terraces, there is a flat boulder in the terraces, yesterday the village in the young and strong with stones and giant trees to build the altar.
Chicken, duck and fish are complete, rice wine is fragrant, emerald green banana leaves are placed on the altar with cooked pig and mutton, regardless of age, the villagers gather in front of the altar with the old and the young, looking at the mountains and deep valleys.
Men and women come together, and there is no bad custom in the Central Plains that women are not allowed to participate in large occasions.
The middle-aged elders of the village dressed in costumes to preside over the ceremony.
"Sacrifice!"
Immediately, there were shirtless young men brandishing drumsticks and vibrating the drums vigorously.
The sky is overcast with a misty drizzle, and the shirtless and dark muscles are even stronger in the rain, and every time the drumstick falls, it will shake the rain on the drum surface, and the drum sound is thick and reaches the sky.
"Worship the Divine Grace of the Chief!"
"Inherit the grace of the holy beast, drive the wind and rain, soothe the barren mountains, and protect the fields!"
"I would like to choose the hundreds of people in the village today to sacrifice the holy beasts, the wind and rain are smooth, and the valley is abundant!"
"Respect!"
The villagers raised their horns filled with rice wine, shouted vigorously, and the sound echoed between the mountains, and then drank the rice wine.
Shouting again, a long cry was heard far away, hoping to inform the sacred beast of their gratitude and worship.
The young woman sang a mountain song hand in hand, the song was sweet, and the empty mountains and new rain also had a special charm.
Finally, the call and the song were answered.
"Roar!"
The roar was loud and soft, the wind and rain changed, and the huge white figure loomed in the rain and fog in the distance and flew to the altar, the mountain people cheered, the young men beat the drums harder, and the girls danced more cheerfully.
Bai Yu was conditioning the water veins of the stream, and suddenly felt something in his heart, and felt the sincerity of the small village, so he twisted his body and came to see it.
They're just too small.
The thirty-meter-long hideous body hovered slowly in the dense fog of the valley, and was very satisfied with the singing and dancing of the mountain people.
The huge body swept over the heads of the mountain people again and again, the snake's scales were white, the bone spurs were hideous, the sound of breathing was terrifying, and from a distance, I could only see a strange giant snake writhing on the hillside.
Finally, after seeing everyone clearly, the myopic eyes slowly suspended outside the hillside, raised the snake's head, opened his mouth to inhale rice wine and a little meat into his stomach, this is just a small village, food is not easy to obtain, Bai Yu eats a few bites at will.
Suddenly, a pregnant woman with a belly in the crowd caught Bai Yu's attention.
Bai Yu is good at looking at qi, seeing that the pregnant woman's face is slightly pale, and the fetus in the womb is not angry enough, so it will not take a few days to prevent the fetus from protecting or even threatening the woman's life, maybe she will encounter illness or overwork when she is pregnant, which is not appropriate.
The reason why she pays attention to it is because she is the most pious, it may be that her motherhood makes her beg the holy beast to protect the child with the most sincere heart, Bai Yu is not an indiscriminate snake, but the other party is so pious that it can't let it down and chill.
The pregnant woman in the crowd was both frightened and excited when she noticed the holy beast staring at her.
Soon, the other people who noticed the situation spread out to the sides, making way for a passage, revealing the pregnant woman in the crowd, and the pregnant woman looked at the holy beast and then at the old man, he was very afraid.
It is rumored that many tribesmen and villages use virgins to raise sacred beasts, or pregnant women with fetuses in their wombs, and he is afraid, sweating profusely, for fear that the holy beasts will eat people, and eat their own women and unborn children.
The elder wanted to open his mouth but did not dare to provoke the holy beast, he was terrified inexplicably, afraid that the whole village would suffer the wrath of the holy beast.
Bai Yu didn't look at others, but slowly swam forward in the air, and a huge snake head appeared in front of the pregnant woman and stared at her.
The pregnant woman didn't dare to move, she could feel the air flowing from the nostrils of the holy beast, but she was not afraid, she felt that the holy beast had no ill will towards her
It's hard to imagine what it must be like to have a huge snake head less than two feet in front of you.
The huge snake head lowered and gently touched the pregnant woman's bulging belly, the movement was gentle and gentle, the pregnant woman only felt warm and comfortable, and with strength, even the trance spirit was much more sober.
Then she saw the beast smile.
Although the snake face didn't make a visible movement, she clearly knew that the holy beast was laughing.
The smile was gentle, without the slightest malice, it was a blessed smile, wishing her and the child safety.
Silently replenishing the vitality of the pious woman, she looked at the mountain people again, nodded the head of the snake and turned around and swam into the rain and fog and flew away.
There is still a lot of work to be done, and I will strive to recuperate the small village belonging to Yunyao Ancient Village before leaving the Southern Wilderness.
On the slopes of the terraced hills, the villagers were stunned and then burst into cheers, the joy was overflowing, and the pregnant woman cried with joy, she had a feeling that she and her child were safe.
"Thank you to the holy beast"
The hillside altar once again dances joyfully, with men and women dancing to express their inner joy in the drizzle.
The white snake did not eat all the sacrifices, there was still a lot of meat left, the mountain people simply drank and ate on the spot, and the pregnant woman got a lot of meat, and now she is more pious
After conditioning the terraces belonging to Yunyao Ancient Village, the white rain disappeared into the rain and fog and left the southern wilderness.
With the help of rain and fog, you don't have to work hard to save your spiritual power, and you can hide your body from being discovered, in short, it's a lot of fun, the only disadvantage is that occasionally the rain stops and the fog disperses and you have to wait for the wind and rain to come.
When rushing in the rain and fog, Bai Yu likes to restore his legs to the snake's tail, swinging the snake's tail to swim quickly and effortlessly, almost reflexively swinging the snake's tail to hurry.
Fly all the way through the rain, fly over mountains and rivers, and when the rain stops, burrow into the river and continue to sneak eastward.
When it rains, it jumps out of the water and flies into the sky.
Day and night, I have to continue to go back to be a guardian spirit animal, I don't know how many more years I have to work, I hope I don't wait until Zhang Qi dies of old age.
The rain clouds passed through and swept away. I want to talk about "New White Snake Asks Immortals" with more like-minded people, "Chat with more book friends about your favorite books."
