Chapter nine hundred and eighty-eight winter sacrifice
...
The cold wind from the north, sweeping crystal clear and crumbly snow foam, sobbing and floating between the world. Tianlai Novel.|2
The surface soil was as hard as exposed stones, and it was a clear gray color.
Wang Yan stood on a convex rock with a hairy crab. Looking around, the whole earth was like an frozen desert, with silence besides the sound of the wind.
"Siberia, a quiet land, the ancients did indeed name it before."
Feeling the pure wilderness of the surrounding nature, Wang Yan not only felt a little emotion. In the ancient Turkic word, "Siberia" means "quiet land". Now, it is indeed very appropriate to match the environment in front of him.
"Cha, Cha!"
The hairy crab behind Wang Yan was so cold that he shook his whole body. He swung his eight claws and ran around Wang Yan, as if he was protesting solemnly to his master. As a hairy crab with dignity, don’t go out to hunt when it’s cold!
"Come on, this low temperature will not harm you at all. If you pretend to me again, I will use you as bait to catch sea monsters!"
Wang Yan glared at the hairy crab in anger. Others were full of fighting spirit and fierceness. What did you call this? He was greedy and lustful. Fortunately, he even fed it an evolutionary crystal.
The hairy crab trembled all over after hearing this and was stunned. Then the crab claws rose and fell, and they ran forward like hunting dogs, and they ran forward to explore the way.
"I am an excellent battle pet. Never be a bait to fish for sea monsters!"
Wang Yan shook his head helplessly. Time flies so fast.
Three days ago, he was still in the Winter Gods clan, and he was busy welcoming the Winter Festival, and today he has embarked on the hunting road.
The Winter Festival is a symbol of the beginning of the festival to welcome the arrival of the Winter Goddess and the next eight-month winter. In the eyes of the Winter Gods, the importance is no less than that of the New Year in China.
On this day, the people of the Winter Gods will sacrifice the sun with round pancakes and various foods that symbolize the sun, and in their eyes, the sun is the god of flame that represents flames and hope.
Then at night, the tribe would ignite huge bonfires in the central square and hold various ceremonies to welcome the awakening of the goddess of winter and the beginning of the new year's winter.
After a series of symbolic ceremonies that night, various delicacies came in colorful places, including caviar, berry juice, yogurt, vegetable soup, as well as a variety of meat and wine, for the people and their guests to enjoy at will.
This is a festival for the whole nation. Everyone started to have a carnival and drink happily, as if they were going to relieve the hard work and fatigue of the whole year.
After celebrating the goddess of winter, the next day we will also worship Mother Earth and the Spirit of the Sea. After these collective activities of the whole clan end, the people of the Winter Gods began to redecorate their homes and start their own family celebrations.
Therefore, during this period, festivals also provide opportunities for unmarried men and women of the Winter God clan to make a match.
Unmarried men and women will entertain and get to know each other at the invitation and recommendation of relatives and friends. If you meet each other, the man can go to the woman's house to propose marriage after the Winter Goddess Festival celebrations for several consecutive days.
Wang Yan, Nan Lian, and the red tank, led by Bai Lisa, joined in the fun and experienced many interesting things that were full of life and were very interesting.
This kind of blind date model is the same as the blind date conference during the Chinese New Year. It seems that no matter where you are, blind dates and forced marriages are unavoidable pressures.
After the Winter Festival, the hunting trial officially begins.
This trial custom comes from early hunting activities related to the survival of the entire tribe.
In the cold extreme north, if there is no reserve of enough food to survive the winter, the entire tribe may perish. Therefore, hunting and gathering are particularly important before the middle of winter.
Therefore, when the Winter Goddess saved this tribe and taught it how to hunt and survive, this activity full of respect for the Winter Goddess was completely preserved. The quality of the hunting trials became a reflection of the individual abilities of the Winter God clan.
"The hunting activity lasts for ten days, and no other supplies or items shall be carried except for personal weapons and war pets!"
As Bai Lisa stood on the high platform in the middle of the tribal square, she waved her hand and said, "The hunting trial begins now!"
This hunting trial is hosted by Bolisa. As this generation of hunting god, her personal strength has been proven that she does not need to participate in the trial again. Unless someone can surpass her or wait for her to become the new generation of patriarchs, she will always retain this glorious title.
"Old Wang, I believe that according to the hunting skills taught by the patriarch and Bolisa, we should all be able to pass."
"Come on Xiaoyan, see you in ten days."
"Sister Nanlian, Brother Tank, we will see you ten days later."
After parting with Nanlian and the red tank, Wang Yan wore hairy crabs and went deep into the hinterland of the northern tundra and started a hunting journey alone.
The scope of hunting activities is extremely wide, covering the entire Northern Siberia and the autonomous region of the Winter Gods, and the area is larger than that of several European countries.
The terrain here is complex and perfectly preserves the original and pure wilderness environment, including from the Arctic Ocean to the north to the frozen tundra, east and middle areas, as well as large areas of continuous mountainous gullies, as well as swamps and cold deserts.
In addition, the Winter Gods never over-hunting, so the monsters and prey that can be captured here are very rich, including some high-level beast king awakening spirit beasts like the Bear King Renos.
Although there are two or three hundred contestants, the chances of meeting them when they all scatter into this vast area are very small. In addition, they focus on tracking and hunting. Unless the two track the same prey, they will either see who will grab the prey first or cooperate with each other, otherwise it will not be allowed to attack the same tribe.
After Wang Yan came out, he made a brief analysis.
Hunting seems simple, and at his level, it can be said that it is no problem to deal with any prey. The real difficulty is that after coming to the wilderness, finding prey and tracing prey is a technical job.
If you can't find your prey, you can't even use your skills.
Therefore, after comprehensively considering his own advantages, Wang Yan chose to go all the way south to a slightly warmer area.
In this flash, it took three days.
Although I caught a few mountain rats, hares and muskrats along the way, and hairy crabs also used water arrows to capture a few small preys such as mergansers. These small animals could not win the trial, and finally they all served as dinner for Wang Yan and hairy crabs.
No one of the preys in the true sense was found.
"Pulu!Pulu!"
The hairy crab that ran ahead to investigate ran back. Don’t look at it walking sideways, with its current strength, it runs faster than a car.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Wang Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.
The hairy crab danced in front of him, spitting bubbles, and talking about the hairy crab words that humans could not understand at all.
However, Wang Yan is in a master-servant relationship with him and his heart is in common, so he naturally understands what it means.
"You mean, someone is digging a dredge ahead?"
Wang Yan didn't understand what the hairy crab was saying, so he decided to go and take a look.
At this time, Wang Yan was dressed in an ordinary person, and his strength reached his level. He had already become deep and steady. He returned to the simplicity and was unable to detect it after he became restrained.
The distance was not far, about seven or eight kilometers, and Wang Yan and a few gods crossed without knowing each other and flew to their destination.
After coming here, the permafrost layer here actually melted.
The originally hard black mud and tundra on the surface are now like jelly, and they rise and fall when they step on it. If they break it, they will make a "puff, sniff" sound.
Wang Yan knew this situation very well.
This is because of the adverse consequences caused by the earth's greenhouse effect. The gradually warming climate has caused some permafrost layers around Siberia and even the Arctic Circle to melt.
The semi-melt tundra grass turns like jelly, and the gas emitted from it is the methane biogas frozen below the permafrost layer. This leaked methane gas will further deepen the greenhouse effect, which will cause a vicious cycle of the environment.
On this semi-melt tundra, more than a dozen men were digging something with tools, and there were many large pits they dug out around them.
When these people saw Wang Yan coming, they all stopped their hands and their eyes were full of hostility.
"What are you busy with?"
Wang Yan glanced at everyone present disapprovingly and said hello in a familiar way.
He found that these middle-aged men were all low-level abilities, because the middle-aged bearded man was a vicious and vicious middle-aged man with good strength and a B+ level.
"Boy, why are you in such a place?" The bearded man stood at the edge of the big pit and shaved his eyes heavily.
The young man who seemed to be from southern China looked ordinary, but the stupid river crab beside him made the bearded man gasp in shock.
This river crab is actually a high-level spirit beast!
The bearded man now firmly speculated that the boy in front of him was definitely a rich second generation, and he was the kind of rich second generation who had never seen the world and had done things all day long!
The reason why he is so determined is precisely because of the river crab spirit beast.
He had never seen a river crab that was usually eaten now, and could evolve to this level. If it weren't for the special habits of rich tycoons, who would have spent huge resources and wealth to cultivate a hairy crab?
"Sure enough, those rich rich people don't understand the thoughts." When the bearded man thought of this, he felt aching in his heart.
Of course, if he knew that Wang Yan not only had a lot of resources for the hairy crabs, but also fed it a priceless evolutionary crystal, he would probably have bleeding in his heart, right?
"I? I am also a capable person. I have recently come out to practice and hunt, etc.." Wang Yan made a nonsense and threw a bag of good cigarettes for the bearded man. "It's fate that everyone meets outside, and make friends."
Although Wang Yan quit smoking, he still carried some with him for socializing.
When the bearded man received the cigarette, his eyes lit up immediately, and his face gradually calmed down, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say."
At the same time, I thought to myself that this kid is indeed a rich man, and he has such cigarettes!
Wang Yan smiled casually and looked at a huge black cloth bag at the bearded man's feet. While the other party was not carrying his back, he seemed to be casually stretched out his hand, and with a "snake", he unzipped the zipper, and a huge ivory with soil appeared in the cloth bag.
"Hey, Ivory? Are you poaching, right?" Wang Yan's eyes couldn't help but narrow.
As soon as these words came out, the bearded man's face changed slightly.
