This kid really saw the flaw. In fact, we can’t blame Hua Zai for being too clever. It’s Hu Zai himself who didn’t pay much attention. They walked such a long way after getting off the car and didn’t meet anyone at all. Suddenly they encountered the God of Thunder.
Attack, when dealing with this emergency, everyone naturally took Hu Zai as the leader. If he were an ordinary child in the village, he wouldn't think too much about it, but Hu Zai was obviously different.
After tidying up her clothes, Huwa smiled and asked, "I'm just here to play, do you believe it?"
Hua Zai nodded and said, "I believe it! I also like to run around and play. The farther away I am from places I haven't been to, the more fun I find it. Unfortunately, I'm not strong enough to run too far... You
When you come here, what do you want to do?"
Huwa: "Just walking around and taking a look, I have heard a lot of legends about Jiuli, but what I am most interested in is witchcraft. I would like to learn it if I have the chance."
Hua Zai looked as if he had found a treasure. He looked at Hu Wa in surprise and said, "You want to learn Jiuli's witchcraft? Let me guess, did you get guidance from the upper immortal family in the land of China?
But it didn't work out, so you want to try your luck with the Jiuli tribe?"
Huwa said noncommittally: "Just tell me if I have a chance to learn?"
Hua Zai: "Of course it is impossible to teach the secrets of various tribes passed down from generation to generation to you, an outsider. But if you abide by the rules, you may be favored by the witch god and master the power of witchcraft. I can try to help you, just listen
I'll just arrange it, but you also have to do me a favor."
Huwa: "What are you busy with?"
Hua Zai sighed and suddenly turned gloomy and said: "In a short time, it will be the joint ceremony of the Gu Li and Fei Li tribes. The tribesmen worship the Gu God and pray for blessings. Not only will they be blessed with abundant harvests, but they will also be given miraculous blessings."
Power. As long as you can participate in the ritual according to the rules, it is possible to master witchcraft.
But in this ceremony, a man and a woman will be sacrificed. This year, it is the turn of the Feili tribe to give birth to a boy and the Gu Li tribe to give birth to a girl. The girl chosen by the great witch is our village's Xiaoxiang. You guys
It is impossible to save Xiaoxiang's life. It would be better to let them be replaced by others. Xiaoxiang is very scared, and there is a high probability that she will die.
If you do me this favor, I will not reveal your identity and will help you cover it up."
Huwa frowned and said, "What exactly are you talking about? Let's go back and discuss it together."
In many primitive tribes, the custom of living sacrifice existed, such as in Ba Yuan. After Yan Zhao established the Ba Kingdom, this custom was banned. The land of China is vast, and tribes of all sizes
There are many remote tribes, and the custom of living sacrifices has always been retained.
The ritual of killing living people has existed since ancient times. For example, when two armies go to war, it is not uncommon to kill prisoners of war or captured enemy spies to sacrifice flags to boost morale. Some people are even more arrogant and cruel, killing slaves at will.
, such as the Shao Jiachen that Huwa met. Others were buried as slaves. But these situations often have little to do with formal sacrifices.
In the ceremony to worship the gods, beheading the living people selected by the tribe as a sacrificial ritual is a barbaric and cruel custom. Emperor Zhuanxu issued an order to rectify the sacrifices and unified the sacrificial etiquette in the name of the Emperor of China.
, which is tantamount to banning the tradition of living sacrifices still retained by various tribes.
But in this remote place beyond the reach of the Emperor of China, the Li tribe in the mountains still retains the tradition of living sacrifices, but it is different from the ordinary living sacrifices. The festival is held every summer, with the meaning of praying for a rich harvest, Feilibu and
The Gu Li Department jointly selected a pair of underage men and women and presented them to the Gu God at the ceremony.
There were many people participating in this festival, including teenagers selected from various tribes, most of whom were boys. Just like Benliu Gang's experience when he was young, the requirements were that those who looked the strongest and smartest on weekdays were specially invited to accept the poison during the ceremony.
God's blessing. These two children are carefully selected representatives and are at the core of the ceremony. Their endings are also different from other children.
They will be blessed by the Gu God on the spot and gain magical power. In Huwa's view, it is equivalent to entering the first level and practicing. But if they fail to succeed, it means that they cannot withstand the power given by the Gu God.
, at the moment the ceremony ends, life will be lost.
The situation is different from other children who participated in this ceremony. They only have two outcomes, either they can master witchcraft from now on, or they will die on the spot. If they die during the ceremony, in the eyes of the tribe, this will be a great honor and will
Dedicate your life to the Gu God, and you will become a noble creature in the future.
Hua Zai claimed to be a big shot in the village, but he was not completely bragging. At last year's ceremony, the Gu Li tribe chose a boy, and this person was Hua Zai. He received the blessing of the Gu God on the spot and became a member of the tribe.
warrior.
Such people will be regarded as the successors of the clan leaders of the villages to which they belong; and the great wizard of the Gu Li tribe is also selected from among such people. After Hua Zai received the blessing from the Gu God, he not only mastered the blessings from the Gu God,
In just one year, he realized the magical power bestowed by the Gu God.
Such qualifications are astonishing, and they will certainly be valued in the tribe, and their status is much higher than that of ordinary tribesmen. Although Hua Zai is still young, people believe that he will become the leader of the village in the future, and may even become a Gu
Hua Zai, the great wizard of the Li tribe, is rarely restrained and can run around everywhere on weekdays. He even went to the God of Thunder far away and did not return to the village for several days.
The so-called supernatural refers to the keen senses that are beyond ordinary people, such as hearing and seeing, being able to detect all kinds of subtle traces, and even sensing things that ordinary people cannot detect. The so-called divine power refers to the power beyond ordinary people and having an exceptionally strong body. These two
Both are very important, and brute force alone cannot solve all problems.
After Hua Zai introduced this, Jigu thought to himself: "Isn't it just that I entered the first realm first and then broke through the second realm? What's there to be proud of? I've now reached the perfection of the four realms and nine realms, and I'm not bragging about it!" But he said this!
I just muttered in my heart without saying it out loud, which still saved some face for Hua Zai.
In fact, even Ji Gu had to admit that at Hua Zai's age, such an achievement is very rare no matter where he is. He can be called a genius in cultivation.
Every young man has various dreams in his heart, and dreams come from knowledge. Hua Zai has been living in the village of the Gu Li tribe. He has listened to various myths and legends in the tribe since he was a child. He also longs to become the person gifted by the Gu God.
A warrior of fortune, he becomes a great wizard who can call the wind and rain, or even a legendary omnipotent hero.
He believes that if he is blessed by the Gu God, he will be able to succeed. In fact, many people have this kind of unreasonable self-confidence. It comes from their expectations of life and life. They think that they are different and as long as they can get
An opportunity. When the Gu Li tribe selected boys last year, it was Hua Zai who took the initiative to find the patriarch and begged him in every possible way to choose him as the special "sacrifice."
However, the most special man and woman in the festivals over the years are not always as lucky as Hua Zai. The mortality rate is very high, more than 90% of people will not survive. The Feilibu who attended the festival with Hua Zai last year
The girl died on the spot.
If someone's child is chosen, the parents' mentality will also be very tangled. The tribe has a deep-rooted traditional concept since ancient times, believing that this is an honor, and they should sacrifice their lives to the Gu God to obtain the Gu God's favor.
Blessings, but on the other hand, deep down in my heart I will also feel worry and reluctance.
The village where Hua Zai lives is called Yangcao Village. Since a Hua Zai was born in Yangcao Village last year, the girl from the Gu Li Department is still selected in Yangcao Village this year. People may think that Hua Zai has been blessed by the Gu God to succeed.
Others may also follow suit, so the name of the selected girl is Xiaoxiang, who is Hua Zai’s neighbor.
The villagers all expressed their envy and respect for Xiaoxiang's family, which is a tradition. As for Xiaoxiang herself, in public, she also said that this was her honor. For a little child, I don't know whether she really thinks so or whether
It was taught by adults. But Hua Zai knew that if Xiaoxiang participated in the festival, she would definitely die.
So Hua Zai asked Huwa and others to do a favor and try to prevent Xiaoxiang from participating in this ceremony. If that doesn't work, let the Gu Li Department replace someone else, or find other ways to save Xiaoxiang's life. They are from the land of China and have noble status.
The upper level Xian family should have more solutions than Hua Zai.
Hearing this, Taiyi frowned and asked: "We can help, but how can you be sure that Xiaoxiang will definitely die?"
Hua Zai sighed like an adult and said: "I am a person who has been here, so of course I know very well. The children selected from the original tribe were required to be the strongest in body and the purest in mind, to ensure that the Gu God could bless them successfully. But
Not Xiaoxiang. As far as I know, she had several illnesses when she was a child and her health was not very good.
She was chosen purely because of me. I don’t have many good friends in the village. I often only play with her. When I was a child, she often stole delicious food from home for me. We have the closest relationship.
.The tribesmen think that I have been blessed by the Gu God, and she can also be blessed. Anyway, there is a high probability that it will not succeed, so why not choose her to try.
Before I participated in the festival last year, the Great Witch God once told me that I must relax my mind and not have random thoughts, and my faith must not hesitate or waver in the slightest. Only by being completely focused and sincere can I succeed. And those who died at the festivals over the years
Children, it is because they have hesitations and doubts in their hearts, and worry that they will not be able to withstand the blessings of Gu God. The more this happens, the less likely they are to succeed.
Everything the Great Witch God said is true, because I did it. But even if I heard what others said, it would be difficult to actually do it. If you are not that kind of person, it will be difficult to control your heart and not be able to do it quickly.
If you integrate calmness and purity into the ritual, it will definitely fail.
A few days ago, Xiaoxiang came to me quietly. She was very confused and couldn't figure it out. She hoped to be blessed by the Gu God and succeeded, but she was also worried that she would not be able to bear it and die like others. Although everyone
Everyone said it was an honor, but she was still very scared and even had nightmares at night.
She only said these words to me in private and did not tell anyone else. As soon as I heard her say this, I knew that something was wrong. As long as she participated in the ceremony, she would definitely die. Even if I told her how to succeed, it would be useless. She
Can't do it!" (~^~)
