Chapter Fifty-Three: Flower-Footed Ancestral Spirit
(3 p.m. plus one shift!)
"It's still easy to use this thing, although this bow is called a strong bow, but it's still a little too soft for it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Insufficient lethality ......"
If a strong bow that can shoot a hundred steps is put in Tang Changsheng's original world, there is naturally no problem in killing people.
But the people of the Black Rock Mountains are ridiculously strong, and if these arrows can't hit the vital point, it will be difficult to have a lethal effect, especially if they are a little farther away.
Just when Tang Changsheng was practicing this bow and arrow, the cliff of the back mountain was full of flowers. Or rather, it's a crack in a mountain, and I don't know where it leads.
At this moment, all the men and women, young and old, gathered around the crack, and they knelt on the ground, and the slaughtered animals were bloodily placed in front of the crack.
And the flowery-footed barbarians danced weird dances, and their mouths used strange tones, as if they were singing something......
I don't know if it was the smell of blood that alarmed something deep in the crack, or if the strange sound alarmed it.
Then I saw a gray shadow flash as fast as lightning, and then I saw a huge rhinoceros corpse that had disappeared without a trace.
Many of them suddenly showed joy and shouted, "The ancestral spirit has answered our prayers......"
Without a wizard to communicate directly with the ancestral spirits, the flower-footed barbarians had no choice but to use the oldest methods to awaken the ancestral spirits.
The flower-footed barbarians around shouted loudly in fear and excitement, with a frenzied atmosphere. Livestock were slaughtered and placed before the crack.
In the shadow of the cracks, nothing was visible. But every time the shadow flickered, the carcass of a livestock disappeared.
"Ancestral spirits, we offer to you. It's been three hundred years, and now we sacrifice with blood, and beg you to destroy our enemies......"
The other flower-footed barbarians also shouted, and there was a girl who had been stripped naked, and then her throat was cut with a knife, and blood splattered out......
This is a human sacrifice, a ritual that is rarely held! In an instant, a trace of blood already appeared between the pupils of the flower-footed ancestral spirit.
"In the long run, the number of people who hunt to feed is extremely limited. It is said that to feed a hunter, at least nearly 1,000 acres of hunting ground are needed...... Even if the animals in this world are richer, it will take half of it...... It is no wonder that except for the adult warriors, everyone else in the barbarian mountain is hungry and full. ”
In fact, even if an adult warrior is able to eat enough, he does not have meat for a moment, and often has to rely on other plant starches or fibers to fill his stomach.
In other words, even if half of the hunting grounds of Huajiaoban are captured, the population that can be fed is still quite limited.
This made Tang Changsheng a little distressed, although there were also some things planted in the barbarian mountains, such as cassava and the like. However, it is obvious that the degree of domestication is not enough, the cultivation technology is relatively rough, the yield is not high, and the taste is poor. That is, it is used to fill the stomach when there is not enough prey.
Fortunately, Tang Changsheng actually left some rice seeds in his marching bag, and I don't know when they were left, the number is not much, at most it is only a few catties.
However, he was regarded as a treasure by Tang Changsheng, and he pondered on all sides to find a good place to plant as a paddy field.
But when Tang Changsheng passed by a bush that could be seen everywhere, suddenly, the corner of his eye flickered, and Tang Changsheng raised his spear and fell, and he had already nailed this thing to the ground.
"Flower-footed snake?"
The nailed to the short spear looked like a venomous snake with long legs, but it was actually a lizard, and it was a highly venomous lizard. It is said that after being bitten, if you can't walk five steps, you will die.
And the reason why this flower-footed barbarian is called this is precisely because they worship a huge flower-footed snake as a totem ancestral spirit.
At this moment, Tang Changsheng showed a thoughtful look, did he finally come? He had waited for a long time, and he thought they were cowardly!
But at this time, with the mountain wind, there was an exclamation sound from the Hongdong Barbarian Mountain in the distance.
Tang Changsheng was unmoved, there were wizards and ancestral spirits guarding the barbarians, and there was no need for him Tang Changsheng to worry.
At this moment, there was a sound of rustling everywhere on the ground, and the figures of countless flower-legged snakes loomed.
Tang Changsheng had a slight headache, this kind of thing with a small size and a large number was the most troublesome. If this thing is still poisonous, it's a trouble within a trouble!
Fortunately, this is a wilderness, and no one around sees it.
Tang Changsheng smiled coldly, and the Yuanyang magic lamp appeared in his hand and lit up. Circles of light like water waves spread out, and everywhere they passed. Those flower-legged snakes fled in fear as if they had encountered natural predators, but as soon as they turned around and took a few steps, they turned over their white bellies and died in an instant.
Although this kind of little thing is powerful, after all, the vitality is too weak, and the spiritual consciousness is even more pitiful. Under Tang Changsheng's fear amplified by the Wishing Fire, he was scared to death one by one.
Cleaning up these little things is just a trivial matter that is not worth it for Tang Changsheng.
However, Tang Changsheng did not relax, but was like facing a great enemy. The Yuanyang magic lamp not only did not go out, but became brighter.
I don't know when the wind started, and the wind was mixed with a fishy smell. The leaves were blown around, and a light rain fell.
However, the thin rain could not fall into the place where the light of the Yuanyang Divine Lantern was shrouded, and the rain that fell outside made a sneering sound. Both the leaves and the blades of grass withered and turned yellow in the rain.
"Poisonous! These rains are poisonous!"
Tang Changsheng said quietly, holding the lamp in one hand, and walked in the direction of Hongdong Mantong as if he was strolling leisurely. Since the enemy does not come out, it is better to force him to come out, and it is expected that this enemy will not be able to watch him return to the barbarian.
Sure enough, as soon as Tang Changsheng moved, there was suddenly a sound of wind, and a stone the size of a head flew over, smashing towards Tang Changsheng's back with a strong wind.
Tang Changsheng didn't look at it and continued to move forward. The stone fell on the fire, and suddenly it shattered. The flame of the Yuanyang magic lamp didn't shake for a moment......
However, at this moment, Tang Changsheng had already caught the traces of the enemy. With a sneer, a spark emitted from the Yuanyang Divine Lamp and burned over.
The place that originally seemed to be empty suddenly showed darkness, revealing the body of a behemoth, it had the body of a flower-legged snake, but it also had a human head, which looked extremely strange.
At this moment, he actually said: "You, why do you have the power of a wizard......" (to be continued.) )
