281 This is by no means my pot
The two were evenly divided, and in the end, Di Xin and the others were ready to leave, and at the same time asked about the news of the "original gene".
It's a pity that the original genes have been kept by Nuwa, and Nuwa is now staying on that battlefield, and it will take some time to get the original genes.
At this point, the matter has come to an end, and the three of them are also ready to separate and travel in the world of kings, while Di Xin is ready to go back to Da Zhou to tell Wu Zetian about it.
However, while passing through the Sea of Winter, Dixin discovered a noteworthy situation.
In the ice and snow, the girl who was red from the cold shivered, and her eyes looked at the middle-aged woman who looked a little similar to her in the crowd not far away, but the middle-aged woman was stopped by several other women, and persuaded "This is for the tribe" and "Your daughter is lucky" and the like.
It's a pity that the middle-aged women can't listen to these words, she just wants to save her daughter back, but those women who have been ordered by the elders are willing to let go, if there is no girl, wouldn't they have to let their daughter take the top?
Dead and poor Taoist friends, for the sake of their relatives, sacrifice outsiders, what's the matter, it's a big deal to learn from those southerners to have two more pillars of incense.
"Elder, let my daughter go, she's only seven years old!" the woman cried out heartbreakingly, the mournful voice that moved the people around her, and then grasped it tighter.
"This is a bride dedicated to the gods, for all the people on the grassland, for your daughter, do you want to let thousands of grassland people die?"
"Mom, I'm cold. ”
The immature little girl stretched out her hand and wanted to grab her mother, tears fell down her cheeks, and her exposed skin was cold and red, even if the wolf flag people were born to resist a certain degree of cold, but the temperature at this time had long exceeded the limit that they could bear.
"Offering her to the gods, it's the best thing for her. ”
The elder in a bearskin coat yelled at the reluctant woman.
"If we don't satisfy the gods, this year's heavy snow will cover the entire grassland, and then our cattle and sheep will starve to death, and tens of thousands of people of the Wolf Banner will starve to death!"
A little fear flashed in everyone's eyes, and everyone who lived on the grassland knew that the most terrifying thing on the grassland was not all kinds of wild beasts, but the white snow that would fall every winter.
The white snow covers everything, and sometimes when you wake up, there are no living people left in a tribe.
Since ancient times, there has been a legend in the grasslands about offering sacrifices to the gods, and if you give a beautiful maiden to the gods as a bride, the gods will take back his snow.
In front of countless tribes facing despair, even if it is just a glimmer of life, they have to hold on alive, not to mention that the left and right are just a human life.
And this maiden is the one chosen by this tribe to be the bride of the gods.
The woman's face was full of tears, and her expression was still a little hesitant and wavering, but she finally closed her eyes when she thought of the children who were waiting to be fed at home and her husband who was away on the expedition.
Countless people were cheering, or they were waiting for the gods to come, or they were glad that it was not themselves who sacrificed this time.
The bones buried in the Sea of Winter have always been indispensable to the Wolf Banner people, and even many old people have taken it as a belief, believing that if they can be buried in the Sea of Winter, their souls and bodies will be purified.
It's just that for Di Xin, he can't control his own death, but he can still manage such a sacrifice.
Seeing that the group of people was about to abandon the little girl and leave, in the distance, an aurora fell from the bright sky, enveloping the entire little girl in it.
"A miracle, this is a miracle, the gods have come!"
The herdsmen knelt down desperately to pray, while some of them were already nervous and their teeth chattered and unable to speak, but in the eyes of others, it was a sign of too much excitement at the sight of the gods.
At the same time, a phantom slowly emerged in the aurora, with the nomadic characteristics of the wolf flag people, and her whole body was full of divine and kind temperament, which made people know at a glance that she was related to the wolf flag people.
"No, you're not a snow god, who are you, why are you disguised as a god of our faith!" Suddenly, the elder, who had been urging others to sacrifice his girl, suddenly shouted loudly.
Everyone looked up one after another, and then they suddenly realized that the god in front of them was a little different from the one worshipped in their tribe.
It's not just a little different, it's completely different!
Although with the skill of the wolf riders, they can't expect how delicate some of their gods are, and some of the tribal styles are brave, some are cruel, and some are cunning, it can be said that only the gods can't be changed, and they can't do it without them, but at least all the gods are male, and the one in front of them is a goddess!
It's just that because they were too excited before, and some people had weak legs first, so everyone subconsciously followed the crowd, but kneeling also kneeling, even if they found out that they knelt wrong now, it was impossible for the gods to kneel back for them.
"I am the god you have always believed in, in the primeval times, I joined forces with your ancestors to fight against the wolf god, and finally I was defeated, I fell into an eternal sleep, and your ancestors also bowed their heads and became the spokesperson of the wolf god. ”
A voice sounded in their hearts, telling an ancient story, and this voice seemed to be the voice of a mother, making everyone feel as if they were back in the warm embrace of their mother.
Their eyes showed their relatives who had long since died, and they told them about the past with a smile on their faces.
Ancient stories appeared to them as if they had become pictures.
The goddess and mortals fell in love, but another powerful god wanted to take the goddess by force, and the mortals fought with the help of the goddess and the other god, and were finally defeated by the gods with great power, in order to save the lover, the goddess sacrificed her power to resurrect the lover, but she fell into a long sleep.
The mortal felt the eternal sleep of the goddess and hated his own weakness, so he pretended to take refuge in the god who defeated him, and finally took advantage of an opportunity to destroy the god and devour the power of the god.
After that, the mortals allowed their race to multiply on the grasslands, and often looked to the north, thinking of the goddess of their past.
And across countless years, the goddess also woke up from her long sleep.
Such a story, if it was placed in a previous life, would definitely hit the street to the point that it could no longer hit the street, but for these grassland people, it was no less than a spiritual baptism.
The divine light continued to bloom, and the spirits of herdsmen dressed as believers emerged beside the gods, reciting ancient songs.
With a large amount of holy light shining through, some herdsmen found that some of their old problems were gone, coupled with those sacred voices that they could not understand but did not understand.
The last trace of doubt in everyone's hearts was also cut off, and they truly believed that this was the god they had believed in for countless years.
If not, how do you explain that the other person is here? And help them.
It must be their gods, and only their gods would be so kind to them.
"Great Dying God, please put an end to the blizzard, our tribe, which cannot survive this blizzard, and for this we are willing to sacrifice our most precious treasures. ”
The elder knelt on the ground with a puff, pleading with tears in his eyes, and at the same time let the girl out from before.
"Ignorant one, I am the goddess of the storm, the master of the sea of winter, look at what you have sacrificed to me for thousands of years, if it weren't for your pious faith, I would have set off a huge snowstorm to cover the entire grassland and destroy you!"
The warm holy light before instantly became cold, like a biting cold wind, and the two extreme environments were transformed, and many herdsmen suddenly couldn't bear it, and knelt on the ground and howled.
"Please forgive us, great goddess of wind and snow, we are willing to offer more sacrifices, whether it is cattle and sheep, jewelry, or beautiful maidens"
He was interrupted by the god in the middle of his sentence.
"These sacrifices of yours are worthless, I am the goddess, where do you need other brides?"
The elders are anxious, what can they do? The great gods have come, but they are not satisfied with their sacrifices, should they give their lives to please the gods?
O Goddess, your mind is like a pearl in the sea, completely unpredictable.
A lot of thought flashed through the elder's mind, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
The gods don't like the bride, because this is a goddess, even if it is a god, but since it is a goddess, then there must be a female preference, how can there be a goddess who likes the bride, so they should not give the bride, they should give it to the man!
"O great goddess of wind and snow, I have understood your will. ”
Di Xin was confused, what did he understand? Why don't I understand?
"What do you understand?" the goddess asked directly.
With pilgrimage excitement on his face, the elder said tremblingly: "Great goddess of wind and snow, when I return to the tribe, I will tell the great Genghis Khan that you have requested, and we will definitely offer you the strongest and most heroic man in the tribe!"
, it's poisonous!
Di Xin originally just wanted to completely put an end to the sacrificial behavior of the wolf banner people, but he didn't expect this elder to come up with such a show.
If you don't sacrifice women and sacrifice men, you don't feel happy if you don't sacrifice a few more people from the Wolf Banner clan, don't you?
Di Xin wanted to refuse directly, but after thinking about Wu Zetian in the south, he decided to help Wu Zetian.
"Yes, only strong and heroic men are my favorite, and if you can get Genghis Khan to sacrifice himself, then I can promise you that there will be no more snowstorms on the steppe for 100 years. ”
Anyway, Di Xin has already solved the big octopus, the reason for the freezing of the Winter Sea has been solved, and the cold will no longer be released, and the ice and snow on the grassland will gradually decrease, but the herdsmen in front of these things don't know.
"Thank you, benevolent goddess of wind and snow......"
