Chapter 472 472: High Priest, Jimo's [Take a Leave]

"Look at what?" Gong Xichou saw her thinking, "If there is something you don't understand, brother can still tell you right now."

The genealogy is the inheritance of the entire Gongxi people.

It will be handed over to Gong Xilai in the future.

Gongxi came and asked, "Why is there Jimo?"

As a matriarchal clan, both men and women will naturally follow the Gongxi clan, but there is also a Jimo clan on the genealogy, which means that different surnames can also be included in the genealogy. It is strange that there is no third surname.Could it be that the Gongxi family has always been married to the Jimo family?

"Jimo family? Oh, you said the high priest."

"High Priest?"

Gongxi Qiudao: "Our family believes in gods. Every year on the birthdays of gods and other important festivals, there will be family gatherings, usually presided over by the high priest. Each generation will elect a successor to the high priest to inherit 'Jimo'. "

He continued: "I heard that the high priest is the only person who can communicate with the gods, but some gods talk..."

This role has a special status in the Gongxi tribe, and he listens to the oracle and conveys it to the tribe.The clan chief and the high priest generally make decisions on matters within the clan, and if the two disagree, the respected clan elders will come forward to vote and guarantee the operation.

Gongxi people love singing and dancing.

It is also because the high priest said that the gods like singing, dancing and vocal music the most.

Speaking of this-

Gongxi Qiu also told his sister-in-law: "When you have children, remember to go to the altar in the center of the clan to have a try. Every high priest is selected by the gods. Alas, the Gongxi clan's extermination may have something to do with the high priest." Bar……"

In this regard, he is still very superstitious.

"Could it be that the high priest is a traitor?"

Gong Xiqiu shook his head: "That's not possible."

If the high priest wants to become a traitor, the whole family will be fried.

only--

"... My generation of high priests was exterminated before they appeared. The previous generation, that is, the one next to my mother, died of illness. It seems that when the previous generation was out of business, his name on the genealogy was suddenly scratched. Lose……"

"Most of the clan thinks he died unexpectedly."

"But there are also voices saying he has renounced his faith."

The high priest must be the most devout person in the clan to God.

Borrow the special ability bestowed by the gods to protect the clan land.Once you abandon your faith, your name will naturally be crossed out.

However, this example has not been seen in the 200-year hermit history of the Gongxi people, so this guess is also untenable.

"The high priest is very important to our clan. Many years ago, there was a time when the clan members went out and caused a disaster to the clan. You may have heard of the Wu Kingdom's curse, which was caused by that guy... That time was also the same. We escaped by relying on the oracle to warn us. Our generation is not so lucky."

The candidate for the new high priest has not come out, and those who have already grown up have accidents one after another. The previous high priests who have retired long ago have no choice but to give up their retirement career to preside over important occasions such as the birthday of the gods.After all, as I get older, some things are beyond my control.

For example, listening to the oracle is on time and not on time.

Gong Xichou dreamed of being able to replace him since he was very young.

Because the dancing posture of the high priest with white beard and hair is really ugly.

If he wins, then he must be the most beautiful boy in the whole clan!
God's new favorite!
Gong Xilai's attention was not elsewhere.

"Isn't this brother's biological father?"

Actually use "my mother's side" instead.

Gong Xiqiu explained: "Well... In order to avoid problems with the newborns caused by the close blood relationship, some adult women can choose to intermarry within the clan, or they can choose to leave the clan and go outside to find pleasing men. "

"Bring it back?" Gongxi asked.

"No, bring the child back after giving birth. Men from foreign races are fine, most of them are people with evil intentions."

Gong Xilai: "..."

She seems to know why there are so many clansmen who don't have their spouse's name next to them, and that's how co-authors do it.

Gong Xiqiu said: "My elder brother should be the child of the previous high priest and his mother. However, something happened to him, and my mother, with the encouragement of my uncle, went out to find someone to have me. My mother's husband may not be me. biological father."

Same mother and half father, quite common in the clan.

Gong Xilai: "..."

"Well, if the former two high priests were here, perhaps our clan would not be immune to extermination, and the casualties would be reduced." Gongxi Qiu's eyes showed a bit of grief, "The clan land was attacked by a powerful enemy, and the old priest is getting old. The means used by the clan to defend against the enemy could not be maximized, so that the clan members could not escape in time, and there were traitors, so the whole clan died..."

Gong Xilai had no choice but to comfort him: "It's over."

"Yeah, it's all over..."

Gong Xiqiu is not a person who likes to dwell on the past, he has to look forward and wait for the enemy to be executed before talking about other things.

and this--

It's almost there too.

Gongxiqiu hopes that Gongxilai can have more children, as long as one of them can be appointed by the gods as the successor of the high priest, the safety of the clan is enough to protect itself.

It's just that it depends too much on luck.The selection of candidates not only depends on the preferences of the gods, but also tests the character of the chosen person.

Only the heartfelt, pious and firm belief can truly impress the god of service and obtain its protection.

If the heart is not firm...

Even the Gongxi clan...

He also couldn't wait for a new generation of high priests for decades.

"It's getting late, Ah Lai, let's go to bed first, pack your bags tomorrow, and I'll send my confidants to send you to the clan land."

　　There are some things at home, and the code words start very late, alas...
