, notified Beiyu Hanmarsh Department, they will be here within four or five days!…”
"Great Chief! The Great Chief of the Mire Marsh of Beiyu Hanmarsh Department has arrived! He brought a big brown bear skin, saying it was a gift for his 'brother-in-law'! Chief Xiaohe of Beiyu River also sent an envoy here first, saying that it would be two days later.
Coming soon!…”
"Master Priest! The mountain bear chief of the Ishikari Mountain Bear Tribe and the chief of the Beiyu River Tribe came here! He brought a black bear for the Bear Spirit Sacrifice, which was carried by more than a dozen warriors!..."
"God bless you! Chief Blackstone of the Ishikari Blackstone Tribe has arrived, as well as the envoys of the Ishikari Big Bear Tribe..."
As the news of the "Kingdom's Thousand Islands Club"'s victory over the Kazuto fleet spread, the Ainu tribe within a radius of three hundred miles received the news as quickly as they could. For hundreds of years, the power of Kazuto's military force has been shrouded in mystery.
Above the heads of the Ainu tribes, singing together with the stories of their ancestors has long become a fearful shadow in the hearts of the Ainu people!
After hearing the news of the kingdom's victory again, the nearby Ainu tribes were shocked and disbelieving, and felt mixed and excited. They immediately sent envoys. As allies of the kingdom, the Beiyu tribes even
It was the chiefs who came in person to congratulate them with congratulatory gifts and beaming faces.
As a result, the ceremony for the main god on the banks of the Shiribetsu River was postponed from three days to five days, from seven days to ten days... Finally, it was not until half a month later that hundreds of tribal envoys from various Ainu tribes watched the ceremony.
, officially held on the snowy beach!
"Praise the Lord God! He rises from the sky of the East China Sea, looks with the sun, and brings us light and warmth!"
The captured Kazuto prisoners cut down trees and built a wooden altar several meters high. The warriors of the kingdom each held torches, carried axes and daggers, and formed two circles inside and outside. The Ainu tribes who were watching the ceremony gathered at the end.
On the outside, the eyes were wide open. But the two high-ranking priests of the main god stood on the innermost altar, personally lit the main god's sacred fire, and recited the sacrificial scriptures combined with the Ainu mythology!
"Praise the Lord God! No matter the ocean, thunder and gold, no matter the blood, battles and harvests, it is the great divinity of the Lord God! He is omnipresent, He spans thousands of miles. He shines on us like the sun, and he also became the god of the Ainu.
The first divine messenger, the Fishing Owl, was sent down to fly on the big island of Ainumaoshiri!"
"Mulu Alashanwa! We are the shamans of the Lord God, the messengers of the jungle, and the guardians of the island of Mahili! We are the hummingbirds, eagles and fishing owls of the Lord God, who lead us here and lead the light of the Lord God.
Come, save and protect you from Kazuto!"
"Come on! Light the sacred smoke and dance the Lord God's sacrificial dance! Rejoice in the blessings of the gods, and look forward to the future of each department! The Lord God is with us, and we and you are all brothers and relatives of the Jiao people.
!…”
The opening ceremony of the main god ceremony was a prayer led by Zuwaro, which was also the declaration of the "Ainu United Front". Then, in front of the blue holy fire, his eyes turned white and he danced the shaman dance of the North. And Luoshan
Da was stunned for a moment, then waved the rattle and danced the traditional Nava ritual dance as an aid to the ritual.
"Dong-dong-dong! Dong-dong-dong!..."
"During the best moment of victory, dance the happiest dance, for the main god of the sun's eyes, and for the ancestor of the red kingdom of God!"
"Ouch! Roar! Howl!..."
The warriors of the kingdom beat the war drums passionately and danced the feather shield war dance of the plateau tribes. Soon, the Jurchen and Shantao warriors also raised their arms and danced the "bionic dance" imitating the bears, tigers and flying eagles, and made various sounds.
The howling of animals. And when the cheerful bamboo flute sounded and the local sword harp played, the Ainu tribesmen also joined in happily, circling around the bonfire and taking steps to celebrate!
"Tap tap tap! tap tap tap!..."
Sunrise is the time to sing loudly, with birds hovering in the sky, and the winter clouds are shaken away by the joy. Singing from sunrise to noon is the real climax of the ceremony.
"Praise the gods! The time to sacrifice the bear spirit is coming!..."
Zuwaro smiled and watched as the Ainu chiefs and chiefs pulled a two-year-old black bear onto the altar. Then, more than a dozen Ainu chiefs bowed down in unison.
Send a heartfelt prayer to the "Spirit Bear" in the cage.
"Great mountain god, guardian bear spirit! We worship you. You were sent to this world by the gods to be captured by us... We feed you and do our best to raise you, all because we love and protect you.
Spirit Bear!…”
"The ancestors and the sacred mountain witnessed that the sacred bear has grown up! The bear spirit lives in the bear's body, and now it is time to return! Great bear spirit, we want to send your soul back to the immortal god
By your side, please speak kind words for us and tell the gods how much we respect and love you!…”
"The time to go back has arrived! Please go back with our blessings, and we sincerely request you to transform into a little bear again and return to us... The protection in the mountains will last forever, and the tribe's promise will last forever.
Far away. We will definitely raise you again and sacrifice you to the gods again... Oh! That immortal bear spirit!..."
The simple and distant songs were sung from the mouths of the Ainu people, and then floated down from the altar, into the sacred mountain forest, and into the land of Maoxili. The Ainu tribesmen under the altar had wet eyes and looked at
The confused and restless black bear seemed to have seen a
The "divine power" who came to protect them again and again. After the song of the Bear Spirit Festival was sung, more than ten Ainu heads looked at each other, and each one took a rope several meters long and tied it tightly to
The black bear's body elicited a caged roar.
"Ho! Roar!..."
"Ancestor, you are the greatest Ainu chief since the ancestors were recorded, and you are our most respected chief! We dedicate our hunting bows and arrows to you, and you will send the last breath of return to the sacred bear spirit.
Procedure!…"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As he spoke, Chief Beiyu Niquan bowed his head and presented an ancient wooden hunting bow to Zuwaro on the altar. And Zuwaro
Varro took the bow and arrow solemnly, bowed his head in return, and answered repeatedly in Ainu and Mexica.
"Praise the Lord God! Kamui, the God of Creation, is the Lord God Huitzilopochitli! It is the blood of our ancestors that fuses us together. We are the glue of our common ancestors!..."
"Praise the God Kamui!..."
“Praise be to the Lord God Huitziloppo!…”
“Sacrifice to the bear spirit!…”
After shouting generously, more than a dozen Ainu people tightened the ropes in their hands and pulled the black bear as tall as a man with its limbs spread out!
"roar!…"
The angry black bear let out a shocking roar, and its strong body began to struggle. This was a competition of strength. More than a dozen Ainu people had veins popping out, and they worked together to suppress the black bear's movements. But their efforts at this moment were just for one
Man with bow and arrow…
"breathe!…"
The taste of power stirred in Zuvalo's heart, silently molding him into a new shape. His face was as heavy as water, he breathed deeply, pulled out the heavy wooden bow, and put on a
A heavy arrow with sharp bear teeth. Then, a few steps away, he aimed at the beating heart of the black bear, suddenly let go, and let out a loud shout!
"I sacrifice this bear to God!..."
"Pfft!..."
"roar!!!…"
The black bear let out a shrill roar and struggled wildly! This violent struggle at the end of its life caused the Ainu tribesmen on the other side to stagger and stagger. Zuvalo tensed up, staring and roaring at him
The black bear seemed to be facing the most terrifying test of courage. But he did not take a step back, still showing the courage of the great chief, staring closely into the black bear's little eyes!
"Hoo!!…Hoo!…Hoo…"
The black bear's roar gradually became lower and smaller, and finally it dropped its head and stopped completely. Beiyu Niquan stepped forward again, checked the arrow in the black bear's heart, and suddenly shouted in surprise.
"No blood! It's good news!"
"Good luck! God Kamui accepted the sacrifice, and the spirit bear returned to God! This is the most joyful moment!"
"Praise the great gods! We will invite the heart of the bear! The chiefs share the still-warm bear blood, and share the courage and strength of the spirit bear!..."
Having said this, Beiyu Niquan took out an iron knife, knelt in front of the dead black bear, and was about to take out the blood. However, a strong hand pressed his shoulder and stopped his movement.
"...ancestor?..."
"God Kamui bless you! Let me come! Let me come!..."
Zuvarro smiled slightly and took out the obsidian dagger for sacrifice. In this regard, he has always been a professional. This act of taking blood and sharing is obviously a noble honor of ancient knowledge. He hopes to inherit this Ayi in its entirety.
The Nu clan's noble honor does not want to be shared with anyone. Even if the person sharing it is his uncle, Beiyu Niquan who supports him the most.
"The Lord God Huitziloppo bless you! Brother, when I sacrifice the priest next, you and the other clan leaders can come and help me!"
"...Ah? Offering sacrifices and human priests? Let us also participate?!..."
In the shocked and vaguely frightened eyes of Beiyu Mire, Zuwaro smiled gently and nodded without refusal. Then, he raised the sharp blade in his hand with one hand, held the water bag filled with blood in the other, and slowly leaned down.
...Soon, ear-splitting cheers rang out from under the altar!
"Praise the gods! Praise Chief Zuvalo!..."
"Praise the great chief! He took the heart of the spirit bear!..."
At this moment, the Ainu tribe's excited cheers surpassed those of the kingdom's warriors for the first time and resounded throughout the sky!
"Haha! Praising the gods is praising the Lord God!..."
Zuwaro laughed loudly and threw the filled water bag in his hand to the silent Priest Lathanda. Lathanda looked up and saw a smile-like blood mark on the corner of the "senior's" mouth. That was Ainu
The blood of human "Bear Spirit" represents
The "divine mark" of the Ainu people represents the "big chief" recognized by the Ainu people. Even more than that, it means more! For example... the leader who has never appeared, Maoshili
