The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 123 The True and Complete Sacrificial Ceremony
The first month of winter, mid.

"Huhuhu..."

The north wind blew all night, and the next morning, Honghua got up from the bed. That night, even with the animal skin cover, her hands and feet were still cold.

Although there is a firepit in the house, it still cannot withstand the north wind that pours in from various gaps.

A wooden house is a wooden house after all, and the ability to prevent the cold is too poor.

There were several women and children in the wooden house, huddled together, covered with animal skins, shivering, they hadn't woken up yet.

Safflower added some wood to the firepit to make the fire more vigorous, which could somewhat warm the house.

"Squeak."

Honghua opened the door, and snowflakes were already falling outside.

Honghua rubbed her hands, wrapped her animal skin tightly, and then hurriedly walked towards the fruit forest.

In the fruit forest, the trunk of each sapling is tightly wrapped with hay and tied with rattan.

But the wind was too strong last night, some saplings were not wrapped well, and the thatch was scattered.

These small saplings do not have a strong ability to resist cold. If the trunk is not well protected, some of them will be frozen to death.

Honghua was worried about these saplings, so she came here at dawn to re-tie up the loose hay.

Snowflakes were falling in the sky, it was very cold, and Honghua lost her totem power to protect her. After only a while, her fingers were already so cold that she couldn't control her.

But she didn't go back to the house to keep warm, she took a breath of hot air on her hands from time to time, rubbed her hands together and continued to tie them.

The totem warrior in charge of patrolling in the tribe happened to see Honghua busy in the fruit grove by herself when she came here.

The person in charge of leading the team today is Yan, and now the planting team has no work to do, and the totem warriors of the planting team are responsible for the patrol work of the tribe.

"Captain, look, there is someone there." A totem warrior found the red flower.

The wind and snow were relatively heavy, and the distance was a little far away. Yan could not see who it was. With such heavy snow, what was this person doing in the fruit forest?

"Go and have a look."

Yan quickly ran to the fruit trees.

When he got close, he could see clearly that it was a red flower.

Yan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't an enemy, it would be fine.

Honghua's body was already covered with snow, her fingers were red from the cold, and the vines were hard and hard to tie.

"Safflower, what are you doing in such a cold day?"

Honghua turned her head and saw that it was Yan, so she explained: "Yesterday... the wind last night blew away the bundled grass on the fruit tree, the tree... the saplings will freeze to death, I will tie them up again... Tie it on."

Yan saw that the red flower was too cold to speak, so he hurriedly said: "You go back quickly, leave this place to us, and we will tie it up. You don't have the power of a totem, and you will be frozen to death."

"I... I can do it."

Honghua shook her head, and continued to tie her tremblingly.

What a stubborn temper, Yan was a little helpless.

"Everyone, come and help!"

Yan could only call all the patrol team over and tie them up together.

The totem warriors had the power of the totem to protect their bodies, so even in the snow, their actions would not be affected much. With their efforts, the scattered grass in the fruit forest was soon wrapped around the saplings again.

"Thank you...thank you..."

Honghua breathed a sigh of relief, these saplings should be able to survive.

"Go back quickly, it's such a cold day, don't come out if you have nothing to do."

"it is good."

On the ground, the snow covered her ankles, and Honghua walked back with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and a row of footprints appeared in the fruit forest.

"Continue to patrol!"

Yan led the people to continue patrolling. Today is a very important day, and it must not be sloppy at all.

Honghua shook off the snow in front of the wooden house, and then returned to the wooden house.

She didn't go to the fire right away, but kept moving her hands and feet in the wooden house until she regained consciousness, and then got a little closer to the firepit to keep warm.

In the wooden house, after waking up, the women and children took a look at her and saw that she was fine, so they went back to sleep. In such a cold day, they didn't want to get up and suffer from the cold.

Hong Hua looked at the dancing flames in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

……

At noon, the entire Mang tribe began to get busy, and the first snow had already fallen, which meant that the sacrificial ceremony would be held at night.

"Fish, come and take a bath, the water is already hot." Yu's mother, also Lie's wife, beckoned her two-year-old son to take a bath.

"I won't wash it, I won't wash it." The fish ran around the house, shaking his head desperately. It was so cold that he didn't want to take a bath.

"Be obedient, today is a sacrificial ceremony, and everyone must wash clean."

"I won't."

At this time, Lie came over, grabbed the fish like a chicken, and said: "Don't mess around, you still have hot water to wash, but we used to wash in cold water."

"I'll put on new clothes for you after washing, and wear a beautiful animal tooth necklace."

Lie carried his son to the wooden barrel, ignored his thrashing, and carefully washed his hair, body, and every part.

After washing, Lie put on a new rabbit fur coat and shoes for him, hung a string of animal teeth necklaces around his neck, and put bone ornaments on his hands and feet.

After finishing, Lie said with satisfaction: "As expected of my son!"

In the tribe, similar scenes were also staged in other houses.

Even those captives were required to scrub clean, even if they were not eligible to participate in sacrificial ceremonies.

In the midst of being busy, the day passed quickly. In the afternoon, the snow stopped temporarily. Chen Bei discussed with Wu, the elders, and the captains, and drew up a list of people who will participate in the awakening ceremony this year.

Afterwards, these people were taken outside Wu's courtyard, and Wu painted totem patterns on them himself.

This time, a total of 250 people participated in the awakening ceremony, which is the largest number of people in the previous awakening ceremony.

Among them, Shanwen, Honghua, Hongye and others are among them, and there are many people who, like them, work hard for the tribe and perform well, can participate in the awakening ceremony.

Holding the paint bowl in one hand and the animal brush in the other, Qingzhu meticulously painted the totem patterns of the Mang tribe on the faces of these people.

When she painted safflower, Honghua couldn't tell what it was like. After painting this totem pattern, she truly belonged to the Mang tribe. As for the tree tribe, it will forever be the past.

Qingzhu's hands are very steady, and she draws very quickly. When Honghua comes back to her senses, she has finished drawing, and continues to draw the next person.

Unlike Honghua, other people are very excited to be painted with totem patterns, and Hongye is the same, because it means that he will have the power of totem again and become powerful again.

After the totem patterns were painted, the sky gradually darkened.

Chen Bei, who was waiting at the side, said, "Let's go, go to the altar."

More than 200 people walked towards the altar one after another, with Qing Zhu, the elder and Chen Bei walking behind.

The elder sighed: "Our tribe is growing stronger and stronger. I still remember that when the first sacrificial ceremony was held, there were only 21 awakened totem warriors, but now there are more than 200."

Chen Bei said with a smile: "This is just the beginning. In the future, the tribe will grow stronger and there will be more totem warriors."

Both Qingzhu and the elder nodded, they firmly believed in this.

In the evening, the sacrificial ceremony officially began.

In this year's sacrificial ceremony, in addition to the captured prey as sacrifices, some of the livestock raised by the breeding team also became sacrifices. This is a change.

Qingzhu stepped onto the altar again, opened her arms, and began to chant spells.

"Hey, I'm going to drink water, I'm going to..."

In the altar, a huge flaming rhino rose up.

This time, the flame rhino appeared more solid, and its power was even more terrifying. Obviously, after devouring the source of the totem gods of the wolf tribe and the black snake tribe, he became even stronger.

Under the altar, many members of the Mang tribe were very excited, but they didn't dare to look directly at the God Teng. The rhinos also stood obediently. Only the dozen or so little rhinos looked at the altar curiously.

"Invite the Rhino God to enjoy the sacrifice!"

After Qingzhu finished reciting the mantra, she bowed down devoutly to the totem god.

"Huhuhu..."

The flame rhino opened its mouth and sucked, all the sacrifices flew up, flew into its mouth, turned into waves of energy, and were swallowed by the flame rhino.

"Sacrifice, very good."

The totem god expressed his satisfaction with these sacrifices, and the faces of the people in the Mang tribe also showed joy. The totem god's satisfaction with the sacrifices is his affirmation of them.

Immediately afterwards, 250 six clansmen with totem patterns painted on their faces stepped forward and nervously bowed down to the totem god.

Qingzhu said: "Please be kind to the rhinoceros to bestow the power of the totem."

"allow!"

The flame rhino nodded, and opened its mouth to spit out a large piece of flame, enveloping the 250 people.

The fire light merged into their bodies, real totem patterns appeared on their faces, and everyone felt a powerful force filling their bodies, which made them tremble with excitement.

All six of the 250 people successfully awakened, and none of them failed!

If other small tribes knew about this result, their jaws would probably drop in shock, because every time the totem gods of the small tribe held a sacrificial ceremony, the probability of the chosen person awakening was only 60.00%, and some were even lower.

"Thank you God of Rhino."

Qingzhu brought these newly awakened totem warriors to thank the totem gods. The sacrificial ceremony was already over when they arrived here.

Today, however, something is different.

The flame rhinoceros didn't return to the altar immediately, instead its body became bigger and bigger and rose higher.

A look of surprise appeared on Qingzhu's face, she bowed again, and said: "Please God of Rhinoceros, please lower the sacred flame to purify all the filth in the tribe."

The flame rhino nodded, then opened its mouth and spit out a large swath of flames, covering the entire tribe.

At this moment, the entire Mang tribe turned into a sea of ​​flames, but these flames did not burn every plant and tree in the Mang tribe, but burned all the snakes, rats and poisonous insects hidden in the tribe.

"what……"

In the hut where the prisoners were held, a person was suddenly caught in flames, and was quickly burned to ashes.

The person next to him was trembling, because the person who was burned to death used to belong to the Black Snake Tribe, and he had a lot of resentment towards the Mang Tribe in his heart.

Not long ago, he conspired to find an opportunity to tell the secrets of the Mang tribe to other tribes, so that other tribes could deal with the Mang tribe and avenge the Black Snake tribe.

Unexpectedly, it was burned to ashes by the flames now, apparently noticed by the totem god.

"Under the divine fire, there will be no place for any filth to hide."

Above the sky, the flame rhinoceros opened its mouth and sucked in, and all the flames were sucked back by him. Afterwards, it gradually became smaller, and then returned to the altar.

The sacrificial ceremony ended perfectly.

　Thank you for the 100 book coins rewarded by the guardian "Hunyuan Emperor".
