The bereaved family members, old and young, sick and disabled, all gathered in the square. Everyone was extremely pious and shouted: "God protects us, the divine light is holy, the bereaved family members are pious!"
This is the unknown god protecting them and protecting the peace and safety of the village. Now what the survivors do is to offer sacrifices to the gods, telling the gods that the survivors are pious and grateful for the gods' protection, and will offer the best sacrifices.
Every village or tribe is not built randomly, but has undergone sacrifices and the gods lowered the protective light, indicating that the gods will protect the safety of the village or tribe.
In fact, many powerful people know that this is not a real miracle, nor is it a real god protecting them, but a hidden spiritual creature protecting them.
Why do spiritual beings protect the human race? This is because when spiritual beings have reached a certain stage of cultivation, in addition to absorbing flesh, blood and essence, they also need the power of faith. Protecting a village or a tribe is the only way to obtain the power of faith.
Therefore, very powerful tribes do not call them gods, but call them sacrifices to spirits.
After the beast tide passed, the village returned to its original appearance, and the divine light dissipated. The alien tribesmen, led by the old patriarch, carried a lot of food and set up an altar in the square to express their gratitude to the spirits for their protection.
A large amount of food, in front of everyone, quickly withered and finally turned into powder. This is the phenomenon after the sacrificial spirit absorbs the flesh, blood and essence of the food.
Many children gulped when they saw the piece of meat turned into powder. This was half of the food stored by their bereaved family, and it turned into powder like this. However, the children all knew that in order to protect the village, the children had just sacrificed to the spirit.
It consumes a lot of divine light, so it is basic piety for the tribesmen to take out sacrificial rituals.
If the sacrificial spirit protects the village, but the people in the village do not use the sacrificial rites to honor the spirit, it will cause the sacrificial spirit to be dissatisfied. At best, the sacrificial spirit will leave, or at worst, the sacrificial spirit will bite back and kill all the villagers.
In fact, such things are not uncommon in the endless land. Sacrifice to spirits backfires and massacres villages, or massacres of tribes occasionally happen. Most of the reasons are the tribesmen, or the tribesmen are not pious enough to worship spirits, or they are
It offends the sacrificial spirit.
"I know you are having a hard time recently. I left this food for you. Please make it up to me next time!"
The first time the sacrificial spirit spoke, this made all the tribesmen stunned, and then they were overjoyed. The sacrificial spirit would think about them, which was definitely a great thing for the clansmen.
"Thank you, Lord Sacrificial Spirit, for caring for the surviving family!" The old patriarch took the lead and kowtowed devoutly.
Everyone in the bereaved family shouted loudly: "Thank you, Lord Sacrificial Spirit, for taking care of the bereaved family!"
After the sacrifice was completed, the food for the bereaved family was still very little. Even if the adults were frugal, the children had to grow, and not having enough food would have a great impact on the growth of the children.
The clan elders and elders were discussing whether to take out the flesh and blood of the ferocious beast to replenish the bodies of the children. Because it was already one month after little Zhongchi disappeared. The clan members gradually accepted the fact that little Zhongchi died.
Of course, this does not include children like Huzi.
However, even so, their survivors still face the greatest food difficulty. Children can rely on the flesh and blood of ferocious beasts to replenish their bodies for a short period of time, but what about the food for adults?
The beast tide has just passed, and there is probably not a single beast around the ancient city, not even a wild beast. Are they going to go to the barren mountains?
The barren mountains are definitely forbidden lands that the tribesmen are unwilling to set foot on. Although there are many ferocious beasts in the barren mountains, there are also ferocious beasts.
There is still a serious shortage of food in the village, and the grain reserves are not even enough to last for a day. The old clan leader also decided to use all the available forces in the clan to risk going to the barren mountains, otherwise everyone will starve to death.
In the square, the women and children of the surviving clan looked at the men in the clan reluctantly. The clan elder in the psychic realm was preparing to take the remaining dozen hunters in the village into the barren mountains to hunt for food. This would be a near-death battle.
In order for the survivors to survive, they had to go. Even if most of them died in the battle, they had no other choice.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Suddenly, everyone in the surviving family was shocked. There were huge footsteps outside the village. Every step landed on the ground, making a loud noise like thunder, and the ground was shaking.
"A ferocious beast?"
"Ancient ferocious beast?"
The expressions of the old clan leader and the clan elders all changed drastically. Their footsteps could make such a big movement, and their bodies were definitely huge. The ones that could make such a big movement were either tall ferocious beasts, or the king among ferocious beasts - the ancient ferocious beast.
!
Regardless of whether it is a ferocious beast or an ancient ferocious beast, this is a disaster for the small surviving family.
"Quickly, the woman and the child are transferred!" The old patriarch did not dare to hesitate and immediately asked the woman to transfer with the child. Even though he knew that it was too late to transfer now, he still did so, wanting to preserve even a trace of hope for the surviving family.
Bloodline.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The footsteps kept approaching, and the ground shook with every step, making a frightening sound.
The women of the bereaved family took their children and hurriedly ran towards the end of the village, hoping to preserve even a trace of blood for the bereaved family. The adults were all ready to fight to the death, trying their best to win even a little bit of blood for the children and women.
time.
Suddenly, a giant beast more than ten meters tall appeared at the entrance of the village, easily breaking down all the trees at the entrance of the village.
"No, that's not a giant beast, that's a beast corpse!"
"So many beast carcasses!"
A few sharp-eyed people finally saw that the tall 'behemoth' at the entrance of the village was not a giant beast. It was the carcasses of many beasts stacked up layer by layer. Among them were white-spotted tigers, wild boars, lynxes, and tusked elephants.
, there are bulls...
"That is?"
"Little Zhongchi!"
"Clan leader, that's Xiao Zhongchi!"
Finally, when little Zhong Chi carried the huge beast carcass into the village entrance, someone saw Zhong Chi clearly.
Xiao Zhongchi, a little man over one meter tall, was walking toward the village step by step, holding a beast carcass weighing hundreds of thousands of kilograms with both hands. He looked particularly weird. The two were completely asymmetrical, making it difficult to imagine Xiao Zhongchi.
How did Chi achieve this?
Finally, everyone recognized Xiao Zhongchi, and the old patriarch was overjoyed. His old body was trembling, and his face was filled with endless excitement and joy. It turned out that the person carrying hundreds of thousands of kilograms of beast corpses was the one they thought had already died.
The best hope of the deceased family - the third child of the bloodline of the God King.
"Clan leader! Did you see it? Did you see it?"
"It's Xiao Zhongchi, it's really Xiao Zhongchi!"
The clan elders all shouted excitedly, with tears of excitement in their eyes. The giant beast that they originally thought would be a disaster for the clan turned out to be their greatest hope.
"Haha... great, great!"
"Quickly, let the women and children come back. Our survivors have been saved. There are a lot of beast carcasses and a lot of food!"
"Boom!"
Xiao Zhongchi finally arrived at the square and threw all the beast corpses to the ground, causing a violent shock.
Little Zhongchi looked at the old clan leader and the clan members in surprise. He saw the clan members holding big swords and looking ready for battle. He immediately understood something, showed his white teeth, laughed loudly, and ran away.
He ran towards the old clan leader and clan members.
"Grandpa Patriarch, Second Uncle, I'm back!"
Xiao Zhongchi immediately jumped on the old patriarch. The old patriarch was ill. The injury he sustained last time left a hidden disease. Xiao Zhongchi almost fell to the ground due to such a rush by Xiao Zhongchi.
"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back!" The old patriarch was already in tears. He was much happier when he saw little Zhong Chi than when he saw the hundreds of thousands of kilograms of food.
For a moment, all the tribesmen cheered. The women came back with their children. Huzi and others all held little Zhongchi and giggled. Everyone was extremely happy.
Zhong Chi is back!
Food difficulties are gone!
Adults no longer have to go to barren mountains to hunt for food with a narrow escape from death!
Soon, the women in the village were all handling the mountains of food, all smiling with the most simple smiles. The women were so busy that even the adults and children came to help.
What should be cooked, what should be marinated, everyone happily started to deal with the mountain of food. Before, they were worried about food, but in the blink of an eye, so much food appeared in front of them.
"Take out some food and use it as a sacrificial gift to the spirit!" A tribe elder hurriedly ordered. What the spirit said a few days ago was still remembered in the hearts of the tribe. Such a reasonable and reasonable sacrifice to the spirit, how can the surviving clan members encounter it?
their blessing.
The old clan leader, Zhong Chi's second uncle Zhong Ye, and the clan elders are all in another place. They are trying to understand how Zhong Chi escaped from the whirlpool these days. And how Zhong Chi was able to get so many
The food can actually lift hundreds of thousands of kilograms of food. This strength shocked even the old patriarch.
And Xiao Zhongchi also briefly talked about what happened to him these days. Xiao Zhongchi did not say anything about the Tomb of Immortality because the coffin man had told him not to tell the news about the Tomb of Immortality, lest the news would be leaked. He
The emperor could not sleep peacefully.
Xiao Zhongchi naturally had no objection to this. When Xiao Zhongchi came back, he saw many ferocious beasts rioting on the barren mountain. Led by a huge black ape, they fiercely rushed towards the ancient city.
The beast tide launched by the black ape naturally caused unreasonable disasters to many ferocious beasts under the barren mountains. Many of them were very thin and were trampled to death, and most of them were turned into meat. A small number of them escaped with injuries, but were directly killed by Xiao Zhongchi behind them.
Die, and then stack up a huge mountain of beasts.
"Black ape?"
When the old patriarch heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he seemed to understand something and said: "The ferocious beast we hunted a month ago was a black ape, but the black ape had just reached the ferocious beast stage. If I guessed correctly,
The black ape we hunted was the baby of the black ape that launched the beast tide."
"It's probably like this. The cub was killed, so that's why the big black ape went crazy, launched a beast wave, and attacked our ancient city!" Zhong Ye on the side also nodded. It was obvious that this was what happened.
