The Getian family had a very good habit of performing sacrifices for their abandoned people. When they kept records, they would use the Yellow Emperor's chronological method to accurately record the time.

With a clear time point, the only thing left is to compare and convert the time between the chronology. This is a very easy task, and anyone with a knack can complete it.

And now the time node recorded on the wooden board in my hand, converted to AD chronology, the time node is exactly locked at the end of the Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty!!

At the end of the Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, someone from the Central Plains set sail to the sea and came to this island, never to return. This person was Uncle Wu Gui.

It was at this time that the stone tablet erected by the Wei people on the island was broken.

At the same time, a series of extremely weird things happened on the island.

The three events were all concentrated at one point in time. If there was no connection between them, I am afraid that even a three-year-old child would not believe it.

That year, the stone tablet erected by the common people of Wei by the sacred spring was broken. To the abandoned people of the Getian clan, this was something left by the gods. Its inexplicable smashing meant that it was an ominous omen.

The priest at that time was very vigilant and was already vaguely aware that something was wrong.

He did two things in total at that time.

The first thing was that he took back the fragments of the stone tablet, and hid some of them in the place where we are now, and they put some of them in the temple. The stone tablets were placed separately for this reason.

The temple was the place where they worshiped the gods. The place was chosen by the common people at the time, and then the priest at that time prayed to the stone tablet there every day. In his opinion, since the stone tablet was something left by the gods,

By praying to it, you may be able to contact their "god" who has disappeared for nearly a thousand years.

The second thing was that the priest began to strengthen the tribe's vigilance. They had been on this island for thousands of years and raised many monsters. He asked the tribe's warriors to work in pairs and patrol around the tribe with the monsters they raised.

, working in shifts day and night, and the farthest guard posts are two or three miles away.

This was the limit of what they could do at the time.

In this way, nearly a month passed by in a flash, and nothing happened.

There are sources of food and fresh water here, but they are very limited and cannot feed too many people. These factors have always restricted the population of the tribe, causing their population to remain at a fixed number for thousands of years. Excessive vigilance has held back a large number of people.

The young and middle-aged labor force, after a month, has seriously affected the normal operation of the tribe. They can no longer maintain it, otherwise the tribe will collapse.

There is no other way, the sacrifice can only reduce the number of people on alert.

Uneasiness still lingered in the heart of the priest. He was worried that if something happened, the tribe would not have time to respond, so after reducing the number of people on guard, he did not reduce the scope of the guard.

The number of people has decreased, but the range has not shrunk, which means that the distance between the guard posts has increased. Once something happens, it will be difficult for each other to cooperate and respond immediately.

The priest is not stupid. As the best thinker in this tribe, he is certainly aware of this shortcoming, but he feels that although the curse makes their clan miserable, it also gives them extraordinary power. In addition, with that

Monsters, no matter what emergencies they encounter, even if they can't cope with it, they can scream twice or let out a loud roar to let the tribesmen in the distance know that something is wrong. In this way,

, at least they have enough reaction time before danger befalls the tribe.

But the reason why a crisis can be called a crisis is that it was not expected.

The day after he reduced his staff...something happened.

The two warriors and two monsters responsible for the outermost security point... disappeared!

There was not the slightest movement, and the abandoned people at the other warning point closest to them were unaware of it. That night, the jungle was as calm as a pool of lifeless stagnant water.

It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that the abandoned civilians who were changing the guard discovered that the two people were missing.

They have been on this island for many years. In addition to hunting, they also attack people who accidentally come here. Some people resist, but they are basically weak. This is the first time since the god left that they lost two people in such a weird way.

.

The whole tribe was in a state of panic, and everyone was sent out to find the two missing people, including the old, weak, women and children. They were interspersed among the young and strong warriors, trying their best to help.

After a morning of searching, around noon, they finally found the two missing people.

Two people fainted at the foot of the Mountain of the Dead on the west side of the tribe.

In fact, it is just a small hill on the outermost edge of the mountainous area behind the tribe. The name sounds extremely eerie, but in fact, for the abandoned people, it is not a scary place. It is the place where they bury their dead tribesmen.

.

The abandoned people practice cremation. This is not a tradition left to them by the Wei people, but their own custom.

The abandoned people are all cursed people. They believe that fire can purify evil. When they die and their bodies are burned, the ominousness in their bodies will be driven away, and they can be happy in the next life.

As a result, the slopes of the Mountain of the Dead were all covered with small earthen bags that were only one foot high. Under each small earthen bag, there were crude clay pots made of clay, and in the pots were the ashes of the deceased.

To put it bluntly, it is a cemetery.

The missing monster was sleeping soundly at the foot of the Mountain of the Dead, while the two missing abandoned people were halfway up the mountain, not far from each other, about a hundred meters apart.

They were also sleeping, and someone in the tribe knew them well and said that the place where they fell asleep was the place where their dead relatives were buried.

Beside them, a foot-high small bag of earth had been dug out, and the clay pot containing the ashes had also been dug out. When the clay pot was opened, the ashes inside had long since disappeared, except for some larger ones.

The bone fragments are still there, scattered around...

The abandoned people thought that the wind at night had taken away the ashes in the clay pot, leaving only some bone fragments that could not be blown away, so they didn't think much about it.

The priest stepped forward and patted the sleeping tribesman, and the man woke up in confusion.

The wooden board said that the name of the abandoned citizen who was first beaten to wake up was Heishui.

Heishui's wife was named Eying. He was a little worried when he saw her husband sleeping next to his brother, so he took the lead and asked: "Heishui, what are you doing? Why did you come to the place where your brother is buried? Do you still have something in your heart?"

Do you feel guilty about him? Or...what happened last night?"

"last night……"

Heishui gradually woke up from his stupor, and then his pupils shrank sharply, and he shouted: "Last night, I heard..."

At this point, he suddenly felt that his throat and mouth were extremely dry. He covered his neck and coughed, and a large amount of gray-white powder spurted out of his mouth.

That... is ashes!!!
