Quiet and empty, the warm sun slopes uphill, today's Xuan people appear to be particularly lively, there are people in and out early in the morning, busy before and after, they seem to be arranging something around the stone cave, each face is full of joy, indoor and outdoor is not lively.

Facing this craze, Feng Shunzi took two cakes from the stove, and was about to run out of the door, look at this rarity, and was shouted by the clan, the clansman walked out lightly from the inside, wearing a purple red cheongsam, a white belt around the waist, the hair was combed behind the bun, and a golden hairpin was dotted on one side, showing her nobility.

Feng Shunzi has never seen the clan mother dress like today, under this soft and icy temperament, as if the clan mother is ten years younger, I saw her come to her with a set of new clothes in her hand, handed it to him and said: Today is the big day of the Xuan clan, everyone will wear new clothes to participate in the event, this is the clan mother sewn for you in advance, take it and put it on quickly, it should fit.

Feng Shunzi took the new clothes and said with a burst of curiosity: Clan Niang, is today the Hunting Festival?

Seeing that he was curious, the clan mother said bluntly: Today is the hunting day of the Xuan people every 20 years, and you will know it later, and then instructed: Go and change your new clothes, the activity is about to start.

Feng Shunzi nodded, and rushed towards his residence, this was the first time he had participated in such a grand event, and he didn't want to miss a single moment of this grand event.

It didn't take long for Feng Shunzi to come to the outside of the cave, and as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the cave, he was shocked by the scene, only to see that he was close to the front of the cave entrance, and built a main platform, which was built in a square shape of wood, and there were three main positions in the middle of the platform, and there were three sub-positions on each side, and Feng Shunzi knew at a glance that the three main positions in the middle were the three positions of the patriarch, the mage and the clan mother, and the left and right two were the elders who stayed in the clan with great prestige.

Around the wooden platform body side is full of clan flags, and the platform below the circle of hundreds of meters, built a circle of ladder platform like a fence, the ladder platform interval of several zhang is also the rent of the clan flag fluttering, close to the ladder below, every few zhang there is a big drum shelf, attached to the ladder around a circle, and in the middle there is a large round platform is particularly eye-catching, a wooden frame on the round platform is horizontal, the wooden frame is hung with animal bones, some bones are huge, some are quite common, some do not know their names, behind the animal bones a huge incense altar is placed in a regular manner, look slightly solemn.

The ladder platform like a fence will be the central round platform around a circle, and the main platform in front of the hole is connected, the round platform and the surrounding ladder platform leave an open space to come out, and between the main platform and the round platform leave a square tens of meters of the field to come out, the whole layout is reasonable and atmospheric, people are shocked.

Crowds of people came and went, dressed in various costumes, shuttling between the fields, some of them chatting happily with each other, and some wiping the hunting weapons in their hands and getting ready to go.

Feng Shunzi squeezed into the crowd and saw that most of the clansmen were gathered together as families, but a corner on the right side of the venue was full of people, and everyone was heading towards that corner in turn, as if some ceremony was being held.

There are many people in the crowd who greeted him, so that his heart is quite warm, in the clan he is smooth is known to everyone, the clan is watching him grow up, this child is naturally familiar to them as usual, but also by the patriarch and the mage of the high hopes of Fuwa, this is known to everyone, but over the years, although the young man has a peculiarity different from others, but in which vein cultivation is a big disappointment, once his expectations, over time, but also slowly become tepid, in the eyes of the clan, after all, it is still an ordinary mortal life, at least most of the clan people feel so, but his down-to-earth kindness is deeply loved by the clan, over the years, the people of the clan can't say good or bad to him, just get used to it.

Feng Shunzi straightened his sleeves, this new set of clothes was sewn by the clan mother herself, and it fit just right, which also made him feel comfortable, and he was about to go.

Brother Shunzi shouted at him, and when he looked back, Cicada Fen'er on the platform was waving to him and beckoning him.

Feng Shunzi glanced at the corner, then went towards the ladder platform, and on the ladder platform, I saw Cicada Fen'er wearing a purple dress, wearing a pink belt, her face was extremely delicate, a pair of bright eyes were watery, extremely smart, seeing Feng Shunzi come to her, she looked up and down, and said with a happy face: Well, this new dress looks good on Brother Shunzi, and then she said with envy: The hands of the clan mother are so skillful, even my mother-in-law can't catch up, if only my Fen'er could have the craftsmanship of the clan mother.

Feng Shunzi didn't say anything, but he was indifferent in his heart, listening to another commotion in the venue, the two of them held the staircase and looked at the crowd, Feng Shunzi was puzzled: Fen'er, what are they doing in that corner?

Cicada Fen'er smiled and said in a very good mood: they were touching the hunting makeup on their faces, and there was a large vat full of bone fluid, which was refined from the bones of giant beasts, and touching it on the face would make the prey frightened, and it would be easier to hunt.

Seeing that Feng Shunzi was fascinated by what she heard, Cicada Fen'er couldn't help but talk about it, and said: I heard that this beast bone was caught by which ancestor of my Xuan clan, and its giant bone was refined into bone liquid, and it has been used until now.

She sighed slightly: It can be seen how huge that giant beast is, and how accomplished their ancestors are, they can tame and refine it.

Feng Shunzi opened his mouth when he heard this, and said with a face full of surprise: Is the beast bone still there?

Cicada Fen'er almost couldn't hold back, pursed her lips and smiled: A vat full of black juice, what are the animal bones?

Told by this, Feng Shunzi woke up like a broken circuit in his head, couldn't help patting his head, and said with an embarrassed face: I'm really stupid, I can't figure this out, and then asked: Then should we also smear it?

The girl was amused by his honest appearance, and said happily: Of course, all participants have to touch the hunting makeup, this is the rule, it is said that after entering the mountain, the breath emitted by this ancient bone fluid can not only make the prey convinced, but also play a role in suppressing evil spirits.

Feng Shunzi nodded again and again when he heard this, this hunting festival and these things he never knew about, and the mystery of the Xuan Realm became more and more difficult to understand.

Cicada Fen'er plucked the green silk and said cutely: Let's go, Brother Shunzi, let's go too, and then pulled Feng Shunzi down the ladder.

Junzi looked at the crowded figure and wondered: Strange, why don't you see Brother Niu, doesn't he usually like to be lively, why is there no figure now.

Zen Fen'er said coquettishly: He's already crowded to the front, why don't you leave him alone.

In a short time, the crowd of people who had already applied hunting makeup walked up the stairs one by one, while the representatives of the older family members were waiting in a row, their faces were smeared with bone fluid, and their complexions looked even darker and more powerful in the sun.

Finally, it was Feng Shunzi and Cicada Fen'er's turn to hunt makeup, but they saw a thick young man on the side, his face was as black as charcoal, squeezing his eyes, and he smiled at the two of them: Why did you two come, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and when I saw that you didn't come, I wiped it first.

His face was thickly painted, his face was already wide, and he showed two black faces, which made it difficult to hide his embarrassing smile for a while.

Feng Shunzi almost burst out laughing, and said incredulously: No, Brother Niu, this is too exaggerated.

Ah Niu said with a blinded face: What's the matter, no... No, what's the problem.

Cicada Fen'er covered her nose lightly, sneered and smiled: "Silly cow, are you sure you only applied a little?"

He joked again: Where did the face go, why did I only see a smear of black, and then my red lips flattened, and I couldn't help laughing.

Ah Niu didn't care at all, in his opinion, he was going hunting anyway, what image he wanted, he didn't know how to write these two words, he only heard that the more he smeared, the more he could help himself, he also believed it, and wanted to give himself more good luck, so he wiped some more, but he didn't expect the two of them to see him this reaction, and they also smiled with their teeth bared.

Feng Shunzi and Cicada Fen'er also wiped a little bone fluid, and the three of them chose a ladder near the main stage to sit and wait for the start of this grand event.

After a while, I saw Shangqing, Xuanying and the clan mother three people on the main stage one after another, and followed by Liu Steward, Cicada Po and several elders of the six, after taking the stage, I saw Shangqing sitting in the middle, on the left is Xuanying Mage, on the right is the clan mother Sanniang, and the remaining six people are seated on the left and right.

Seeing that the main characters in the clan had been seated, I saw a clan member on the left side of the stage waving the clan flag in his hand, and suddenly the drums were beating everywhere, and the people were boiling.

With the sound of drums, the representatives of the older family group members also stepped into the venue in front of the main stage one after another, and hundreds of people stood in line, and the scene was very spectacular.

Feng Shunzi looked into the field, and finally found the familiar figure in the corner of the front of the line, the two sharp axes on Uncle Dongzi's waist looked particularly shining in the sun, and he was tall at this time, waiting for the order to be ready.

The chess player in front of the field waved again, and the drums suddenly stopped, and the venue was silent.

Steward Liu on the stage got up and glanced at Shangqing, Shangqing nodded promptly, Steward Liu took a few steps forward, came to the front of the stage, looked at everyone and said loudly: The sacrifice to heaven begins.

As this sound of sacrifice sounded, everyone knelt down reverently, and all the clansmen on the entire platform, including the field, also knelt in unison towards the round platform in the circle, keeping their bows motionless.

Shunfengzi and Ah Niu learned from Fen'er one by one, even the leader and several elders on the main platform were not in a row, and they all bowed down to the round platform in the court.

Steward Liu himself also knelt, and after bowing three times, he said: Sacrifice incense.

Shangqing and Xuanying Master and the clan mother Sanniang got up one after another, there were three people on the sidelines who handed the incense in their hands, and the three of them went down from the main platform one after another, towards which round platform, the field lined up from the middle to give way, the three came to the round platform, with the patriarch Shangqing as the middle, Xuanying and the mother on both sides, they bowed three times again to the horizontal frame, and offered the incense in their hands to the altar.

He slowly got up and took his seat on the main platform, and then everyone got up and waited for the next standby.

Steward Liu said again: Practice.

I don't know when, Grandpa Xuanying changed into a black robe, stepped forward again, he sacrificed a long whip across the air, lightly, and instantly arrived at the round platform in the field, the body is mysterious, like a black eagle waving its wings, Feng Shunzi heard the clan mother said that Grandpa Xuanying has been living for hundreds of years by the withered eagle, the pulse is profound, today I only saw a little stunt, it is staggering, full of expectations.

Before bringing the altar, a blazing flame suddenly broke out in the altar, Xuanying threw out a whip, put his palms together, sat in front of the altar, the long whip took off, rolled into a circle, and rotated back and forth around the blazing flame that exploded, making a gurgling sound, revealing a trace of golden light.

Xuan Ying, who sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, his lips squirmed, and his mouth kept chanting something, as if chanting a Buddha, and his beard and hair were all white under the sunlight, as if he was as mysterious and difficult to penetrate as an immortal.

In the face of the most holy moment, everyone will not stop and watch and keep their hearts, which is a kind of devotion to the gods, and a belief that the gods will protect the Xuan people from disasters.

With the recitation of Xuanying's mouth, the long whip seemed to expand several times, covering the beast bones behind the altar, and rotating violently in the sky above it, faintly the beast bones vibrated slightly, and the rows of beast bones prepared for the sacrifice to the sky let out a low roar like a beast roar, as if resurrected, passing through the battlefield, people couldn't help but be secretly in awe.

After a short time, the whip was unfolded and flew directly back into Xuan Ying's hands, and the explosive flames gradually dimmed and disappeared, and everything returned to its original state, which seemed so natural.

Xuan Ying opened her eyes, slowly got up and looked at the incense altar, the incense was still thriving, and she felt more relieved, but when she looked at the beast bone, there was a trace of uncertainty on her face, but she couldn't say this inexplicability.

He turned slowly and walked towards the main platform, and then the people were extremely boiling, and the drums sounded again, and the human voice drowned the old man's figure like thunder.

Everyone knows that after the worship of the heavens and the practice, it is the beginning of this hunting day.
