Chapter 262 What the witch left behind
Shao Xuan took the bone decoration and recalled the situation back then.∷, he remembered that the ball in the middle of the bone decoration was the ball in the first place, and asked: "Do you know what this ball is? Where did the ancestors get the treasure from?"
It was from the cave of the King Clock, and there was no light around it. However, under the special vision of ability, Shao Xuan saw the light emitted from this bead, covering the people and things around him. However, when he took it to a place with sufficient light and could see everything clearly, in the ordinary vision, he found that the bead was as dim as ordinary things.
This is something very special.
"Baby? It's indeed an extremely precious thing." The witch stared at the ball in the bone decoration with infinite reverence in her eyes and said, "A long time ago, when the tribe was established, the first witch left him into the fire pit after his death, but found that the first witch did not disappear directly like others, but left six beads."
"That's it?" Shao Xuan was surprised.
The witch nodded, "Later, the six beads were given to people who made great contributions in the tribe. They were also called 'elders'. In addition to the witches and leaders, they were the six highest-ranking people in the tribe, assisting the witches and leaders. The six beads are the second light in the tribe. Even if they are far away from the fire pit, they can illuminate the night for the tribe's tribe... It's a pity that after the tribe's fire was incomplete, the six beads became dim."
Shao Xuan suddenly felt that the bone decoration on his hand was heavy. What should I do if I lost it? The witch would fight with him. If it were an ordinary treasure, it would be fine. This is something left by the first witch, and there is no seventh in this world.
Thinking of Shao Xuan, six beads?
Looking at Wu in confusion, Shao Xuan asked, "The six beads left by the first Wu, are all in your hands?" He saw that there were only three bone ornaments in the box that Wu took out.
Wu shook his head, his tone with unconcealed regret and regret: "The other three disappeared with the other half of the fire. So far, I have not been able to feel where the other half of the fire is."
Even the witch couldn't feel it, so I really didn't know where it was. The fire seed was still incomplete. As for when it could be found, God knows.
He also talked about the sacrificial rituals after the end of winter, and the wu asked Shao Xuan to leave. This time, if nothing unexpected happened, Shao Xuan was still one of the dancers of the sacrificial dance.
When Shao Xuan left, Wu sat in place, looking at the dim balls on the other two bones in the stone box, pondered for a long time. Finally, it turned into a sigh. When he didn't come, he thought about how to cross the river, how to return to the old place, and what to do after he arrived. But after he came back, as he became more and more aware of the surrounding situation, Wu felt very stressed.
Is the Yanjiao tribe very strong? Yes, but it was only the past. The current strength is still different from the large tribes in the middle. Even if it really matches the Wanshi tribe next to it, it might be a very tragic result. That was something he didn't want to see. However, in the sacrificial ritual after winter, it would be great when the tourists awaken.
Becoming stronger, only by becoming stronger can one gain a foothold.
On Shao Xuan's side, he left the witch and went back directly. At this time, it was already dark, and there were fewer people walking outside. Fortunately, there were no night swallows here, and those annoying night insects also came out due to fire.
After the fire seed is connected to the fire veins, it has a much greater influence on other creatures. Zhazha doesn't like to stay near the fire pit now. She just comes here every day, brings some prey to Lao Ke, and then leaves in a hurry.
After dinner, Shao Xuan originally planned to go to the Keke to see the situation of the carnivore he raised, but because of the bone jewelry given by the witch, he didn't go out and sat in the room to study the bone jewelry.
The core function of the bone decoration is the bead. Shao Xuan touched the surface of the dim bead body. The purchase was not as cold as other items in winter, and it was warm. Such things were actually left by a witch after cremation. If it weren't for the witch's words, Shao Xuan wouldn't have thought about it.
Even though he knew that this thing was special, Shao Xuan had no idea when he was asleep. However, after falling asleep, Shao Xuan had a dream.
In the dream, a human figure composed of flames gradually became clear. At first, it was just a far place, but gradually, the person with fire all over his body walked straight towards this side, and the figure became closer and closer, unable to see his facial features or appearance, and he could not see his age or gender. He was just a person wrapped in flames.
The fire man opened his arms, just like the way the witch summoned the fire seed by the fire pit. He seemed to be still lying something, but Shao Xuan couldn't hear it clearly.
witch?
Shao Xuan was like a bystander, watching the fire man's every move.
When Shao Xuan was immersed in such a strange dream, the bone ornament he was wearing flashed in the dark night, and then dimmed again. As usual.
When Shao Xuan woke up the next day, the situation he saw in the dream was still clear. Looking at the bone decoration on his neck, Shao Xuan thought, could it be that his ancestor had dreamed? Or did he think too much?
Shaking his head, the beads on the bones were still as dim as yesterday. Shao Xuan no longer thought about it. Today he would not go out to hunt, but he would participate in the patrol.
Before winter, the Wanshi tribe occasionally came to the border to sneak in and inquire. After winter, it was less, but the necessary alertness must be given, not to mention that there are many tourists in the tribe whose loyalty is to be tested.
Most tourists who can persevere until now are people with a firm mind and know what kind of life they want. Even if they don’t have a skill that can be seen through, as long as they are willing to learn and give, they can still eat and not starve to death.
"A Xuan, how many people can awaken this sacrifice?" Lang Ga asked.
"This is not accurate, one or two thousand people should have it." Shao Xuan replied.
"Only one or two thousand?" Not only Lang Ga, but also the other people patrolling with each other were also confused.
Among the original tribe members, no matter whether they have hunting ability or not, just looking at the totem warriors, there will be more than 1,500 people. In addition to some women, there are children who have not yet reached their age. In the future, a large number of people will awaken to become totem warriors. After coming to the old place, there will be six or seven thousand people who come with them and the tourists they find. They were surprised for a long time. If most of them could awaken to be most of them, how much help would it be?
But in fact, this is not the case.
Among the tourists who were adopted as their tribe, there are many people who are not Yanjiao, such as Yan Shuo's wife, Lao He's wife, and some cases where the women are Yanjiao people, but their husbands are outside tourists. There are many such people, and they are registered as Yanjiao people. Therefore, strictly speaking, judging by blood, 30 to 50% of these six or seven thousand people will be reduced. Looking at the awakened people, it is finally estimated that there are only one to two thousand people.
Listening to Shao Xuan's analysis, the patrolman was a little depressed.
"However, women account for almost half of the tourists who came back." Shao Xuan said. Most of the tourists who left midway were men, and few women left. Perhaps, they knew that even if the tribes would face a crisis, it was the best choice for them.
When we mentioned this, Lang Ga and others, who were originally depressed, immediately cheered up. This is indeed a good thing.
When I was in the other side of the river, there were few women, but the witches were strictly controlled, so there were many bachelors in each generation. In addition, the birth rate was not high and the environment was difficult, so there were still only a few people in the past so many years.
Among the tourists who are back now, not only are there many women, but the birth rate of children is also much higher. For example, Yan Shuo and his family have two children. Now they hear that their living conditions are better and their health is much better, and their wife is again. Lang Ga and others are so envious.
As long as you have time, I believe that the tribe will develop quickly.
Shao Xuan thought, and suddenly stopped, turned around and looked in one direction. There was the place where the tourists from the tribe lived.
"What's wrong?" Lang Ga and the others asked when they saw this.
Shao Xuan said with caution and confusion: "I always feel that someone is watching me."
"What's the matter? Everyone knows you. Maybe someone's little girl is interested in you..." Lang Ga said and stopped.
Shao Xuan's face was serious, and the others didn't joke. People like them who have experienced countless life and death hunting have a very accurate intuition. If they really feel something is wrong, then something must be wrong! Not everyone who came back is trustworthy.
"Go over there and have a look?" Langga asked.
"No need." Shao Xuan stopped him, "Just focus more on that side recently." If you feel right, there are other people hidden among the tourists who came back this time.
The direction Shao Xuan just looked at was where the tourists who came back from the tribe lived, in an inconspicuous wooden house.
"How? I'll tell you to be careful, but you don't believe it." In the room, a handsome man who looked honest and honest, sat on a wooden stool with his legs raised. But at this time, he had no honesty on his face, and only gloating.
Next to the window of the wooden house, a beautiful and slender woman was hiding against the wall. She just planned to test the boy, but she didn't expect that the other party had already seen it. Fortunately, she hid quickly and was not seen.
The woman was about to tell something, but she heard footsteps coming close outside. She was not a totem warrior, which made the two feel much more at ease.
"I have to go out to work when I look for me. Be careful. It's better not to go out these two days, otherwise we will be discovered." When the man said this, the teasing look on his face quickly dissipated, becoming honest and a little dull.
In the following days, every patrol team would pay special attention to the tourists from the lower tribe. But day by day, no abnormality happened.
