Chapter 278 11 Completion

From the tribe to here, they drove for five days, and they only took a short rest in the middle. They also found two caves that could be used as strongholds. Of course, there were originally beasts in the cave, but they were all together. It was dinner that day.

Everyone can be said to be fighting bloody battles. The deeper you go into the mountains and forests, the familiar, exciting, dangerous, and passionate hunting feeling that once came back. They like the old place very much, and they are very satisfied with this mountain forest.

If other tribes know how the Yanjiao people feel about this mountain forest, they will definitely think that the people of the Yanjiao tribe are crazy and like to be next to fierce beasts and seek abuse.

However, the Yanjiao people who came from the other side of the river have been exposed to this kind of environment since childhood. Facing such an environment, they are more likely to adapt.

Sometimes the two bosses still wonder, in the deeper forests, is there a place like green space where all kinds of precious and dangerous plants grow?

It's only been five days, and everyone is like a slayer who crawled out of a thick sea of ​​blood, full of ruthlessness and suffocation. And the few beasts that were brought out together looked even more fierce. If they didn't look at the Flaming Horn tribesmen with a little slowness, they would be obedient enough. Otherwise, if they saw it at first glance, they would feel different The indigenous beasts in the forest are no different.

"It's there."

Shao Xuan pointed to a place on the mountain and said.

Although I haven't reached that place yet, the pagoda and Guihe look at the direction pointed by Shao Xuan, and can clearly see the place blocked by a large stone. Behind the stone, it must be the ancestors who Shao Xuan said. Stay in the cave.

Taking a deep breath, everyone could not help tidying up the animal skins and clothing on their bodies, patted the grass clippings stuck to the animal skins, and then by a clear spring on the mountain, they washed their faces and rubbed off some of the old clothes on their arms, legs and feet. Dried blood.

face the ancestors. They will be treated seriously.

After careful arranging, a group of talents went to the place on the mountain.

There was no longer the kind of guardian power that Shao Xuan encountered when he came here last time, and it looked no different from an ordinary cave.

Remove the big stone blocking the hole. With a few beasts guarding outside, Shao Xuan led the two big bosses and others into the cave.

The insect repellent herbs that were sprinkled in the hole last time are still there. Just the smell is much lighter.

Before Shao Xuan left last time, although he set up traps and sprinkled some insect-proof herbs, because the power to guard the cave was gone,

Shao Xuan was worried that the remains of the ancestors would rot, so he put the bone ornament on his neck on the person who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and dressed like a witch. The remains of the other six ancestors were also moved by Shao Xuan. Since it was in the cave of the stone worm king worm. Bone ornaments can protect the remains of those ancestors, and they should be able to now.

After entering the cave, Shao Xuan took a closer look. The remains of the seven ancestors were the same as the last time he saw them, and they did not rot quickly, which made Shao Xuan a lot at ease.

Every time they see the remains of their ancestors, the people of the Yanjiao tribe are always very excited, especially after listening to Shao Xuan talking about what they saw in the cave last time, Ta, Guihe and others can't wait to kneel and kneel again to show that Reverence for ancestors.

Tower holding torches. Carefully followed Shao Xuan to the innermost part of the cave.

"These are 'history'." Shao Xuan pointed to the boxes and said.

Whether it's the ancestors or these boxes containing the "history" of the horns, they will do whatever it takes to send it back to the Horde.

After looking at ancestors and "history". The two big bosses led people out of the cave and went down to chop wood to make a sedan chair. In fact, it's not really a sedan chair, it just looks like three carriages, each of which will be carried by four people, and the others will guard around it.

Shao Xuan and his party rested in this cave for two days, and they also made a sedan chair for carrying their ancestors in these two days. Carefully put the remains of the seven ancestors into one sedan chair, and put the other boxes containing "history" in two batches in the other two sedan chairs.

The things left in the cave are limited, and many have lost their original appearance. If you usually see this in the tribe, it will definitely be thrown away as garbage. But this is left by the ancestors, and the meaning is different. Take those you can take away with you, and if you don't think you need to take them away, keep them in the cave.

"The route will be opened up in the future, and we will come again." Gui He said.

The speed of going back is much slower. After all, we have to bring our ancestors and "history", and we have to keep them from being destroyed by other beasts, which naturally consumes more time.

At this time, the performance of a few beasts is very good, they will attract other beasts they encounter, and then find a place to solve it, instead of fighting around those sedan chairs.

Eight days later, the group returned to the tribe. When they were still some distance away from the tribe, they met the people who were sent by the witch and the leader to help them, and they also shared the pressure of everyone.

Everyone was injured, even a few beasts, but they were all in good spirits. The former is because he brought back the ancestors and "history", which he thinks is a supreme honor, while the latter is because he thinks that he ran out and had a good time. Although he almost died several times, he also had many injuries, but it was fun enough.

The people from the outer tribe had already left, and the people in the tribe stopped everything they were doing and followed the witch and the leader to the border to greet them.

Some people didn't know why they were in such a battle at first, and after everyone told each other, they couldn't restrain their excitement.

"That's the ancestor!"

"What did the ancestors look like?"

"It must be powerful!"

"I heard that people who have worshiped the ancestors can get the blessing of the ancestors! A warrior I know has worshipped before, and he has passed through the crisis several times when hunting."

"Have you found your ancestors before?"

"Yes, I heard that Elder Shao Xuan discovered it."

"What about this time?"

"I heard that it was also discovered by Elder Shao Xuan."

"...As expected of an elder..."

...

For the Yanjiao people, even if the ancestor's body is rotten to the point of only a skeleton frame, it still carries a sacred and inviolable fairy smell.

It is a pity that they did not see the appearance of the ancestors, but only saw three large "boxes" carried by about ten people.

"Welcome the return of the ancestors!"

The witch and the leader were the first to bow down.

There were thousands of people at the border, all of them knelt down, even children who didn’t understand anything, they also knelt down with the adults at this time. Without their usual stubbornness, they had a very strange feeling, some heavy, some others. Excited.

When Shao Xuan brought back the remains of the ancestors in the cave of the Stone Insect King, a ceremony was held in the tribe to cremate the ancestors. This time, naturally, but not immediately.

Because of the protection of bone ornaments, the remains of the seven ancestors would not rot quickly. The witch placed them in a room in the stone house, and then did not leave the house for several days, not always facing the ancestors, but studying those who carried them. "History" back.

Ao would also visit every day, and Gui Ze, who was chosen by Wu to be the next Wu successor, followed Wu to look at the "history" he left behind every day.

There is too much information in it that they need to master. Shao Xuan and Gui Ze divide the labor, and comprehensively classify those selected by the witches, and then re-transcribe them, such as the records of astronomical phenomena, farming, animal husbandry, handicraft, etc. Although it has been thousands of years , but some are still very helpful.

Whether it is the witch or the leader Ao, although they knew that the Yanjiao tribe was brilliant before, but after all, there is no more specific concept, the records left by the ancestors were limited, but now, through these "history", they deeply feel the prosperity of the year .

Thinking of the arrogant faces of those outside the tribe a few days ago, and thinking about the once domineering Yanjiao tribe, Ao only felt that there was a long way to go.

"Who are the ancestors who came back?" Shao Xuan asked Wu in the spare time.

Wu was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "During the disaster, the witch of the Yanjiao tribe passed the position of the witch to the next one, and let the new witch and the leader leave with the tribe's people, while he himself took a hundred Many people took these precious 'history' into the mountains and forests to hide them in case of natural disasters or destruction. More than 100 people, and the witch, guarded the 'history' until the end of their lives."

"More than a hundred people?" Shao Xuan wondered. When he found the cave, there were only seven, including the old witch.

"The others... are all dead... no bones left!" Wu lightly stroked the small roll of animal skins in his hands, which was the last record of the witch, feeling that every word was weeping blood, extremely heavy.

At the time of the natural disaster, the beasts in the mountains and forests were also frightened by the sudden changes in the world and became manic. When encountering such a madman-like beast, people who go out hunting die every day, not even leaving their bodies behind. In the end, there were only seven of them left, and they didn't wait for their clansmen until they died.

"If one day, I encounter the same situation, I will do the same." Wu said.

"When are you going to hold the sacrifice?" Shao Xuan asked.

Wu didn't answer, but asked Shao Xuan, "Can you re-engrave the carvings on those stone pillars?"

"No problem." Shao Xuan said.

During the time they left for the Ferocious Beast Forest, Ao had brought more than a thousand people to transport a few huge stone pillars. Shao Xuan understood what the witch meant. He hoped that the stone pillars could be fixed before the ancestors were cremated.

Because the stone pillar is too big, it is impossible for Shao Xuan to complete it all. The witch and the leader called over some people with good stone skills. First, polish the stone pillars. Don’t be bumpy here and there is an edge and a bulge there. After the stone pillar has been polished for the first time, Shao Xuan will engrave the patterns in his memory.

In the past, Shao Xuan only remembered the patterns on Shizhu Mountain, and could not understand what it was. However, after reading the longer and more detailed records left by his ancestors, he found that many patterns on the stone pillars had special meanings and different positions. The patterns on the stone pillars are also different. In addition to being used as sundials, they also have sacrificial significance.

It's no wonder that when Wu hoped to cremate the ancestors, he filled the missing items that were destroyed around them according to the records left by the ancestors, and filled them one by one. That is the most orthodox sacrificial ceremony of the Yanjiao tribe. (To be continued)
