Chronicles of Primordial Wars Chapter 284: Begging for rain (1)
In Rain Tribe's wooden house for wandererss to rest, the troupe rested for a night. As for how to sleep, see the constipation-like complexion of the next day.
When Shao Xuan opened his eyes, the light in the room was very dim, but with the creature clock formed over the years, he knew that the sun should be out now.
The wooden houses here are simple in construction, and there are many gaps in the roof and surrounding wooden walls. If there is sunlight outside, they can penetrate through these gaps.
However, it feels like the people in the room are just like dawn, and night still. There was a little bit of light, but it was still mostly black.
"What's going on?" Tuo stand up/turning over got up from a hay-covered wooden bed slightly above the ground. He also felt that it should be the time when the sun was empty, but he didn't see the light it deserved. Always feel a bit gloomy and depressed.
"Yi?" Tuo said in doubt.
Shao Xuan is also stand up/turning over. When your feet fall to the ground, you will feel a soft layer of sand on the floor in the house.
Kaka squeak
Shao Xuan opens the door.
The grey wind blows in instantly, letting people breathe.
The door opened, and there was a dim light inside. Through the light, the three saw the situation inside the house.
Apart from where they slept, basically a layer of thick ash fell off. At this time, many sand storm leaked from the roof.
The people in Rain Tribe are still thoughtful. Above the wooden bed, near the roof, a layer of straw mat is covered, and the dust leaking from the roof has fallen on the straw mat.
"No wonder I always heard the sound of crickets last night. I didn't sleep well because of the noise." Ray looked at the situation inside the room and yawned.
People who often hunt in the mountains and forests will certainly not fall asleep when they sleep. Even a little movement can alert them, even the sound of sand storm landing in the quiet night. They can hear quite clearly with their ears.
"Are we still going in this weather?" Tuo asked.
"Should not be able to walk." Shao Xuan heard footsteps approaching outside.
Huang Xie soon appeared at the door of their house.
"The team is here for two days and waits for the weather to improve before starting." Huang Xie said to the three.
"Okay, I see." Shao Xuan responded.
"Also, be careful. Every time this area is in sand storm weather, something will come out. Be careful." Huang Xie originally intended to warn these young Warriorss who came to this place for the first time. To be more serious, to talk about those creature horrors, these young Warriorss who are prone to confidence and love lightly will become alert.
But talking, Huang Xie found that the atmosphere next to him was wrong, and looked up. Match three shiny eyes. Somehow, I could n’t go on.
Thinking for a while, Huang Xie sounded.
Yes, the people of Flaming Horn are different from people of other tribes. These Flaming Horn people live next to Ominous Beast. How can they be afraid of the creature that appears in suddenly? Maybe I'm thinking about how to catch those as food.
Huang Xie is really right. The Shao Xuan three are really trying to catch a few of these beasts to change their taste. Flaming Horn people like meat the most, those hard flatbread really can not let them replenish enough energy.
Huang Xie sighed. Anyway, his words arrived, and turned to another cabin to inform people.
Shao Xuan looked at time of day outside. There was a ding-dong sound from Rain Tribe in the distance, because there were too many sand storm to see the situation over there. But according to what Yang Sui said. It was setting up an altar for the rain.
Thinking of begging for rain, Shao Xuan sighed and was preparing to close the door, suddenly at hand. Lei and Tuo behind him also stopped what was in their hands, and the trio's eyes turned towards the wooden table in the house.
A thick layer of sand storm dropped off the table leg. And now, the surface of that layer of sand storm is slightly raised and still moving. Obviously there is something under these sand storm.
Lei and Tuo glanced at each other and started to operate at the same time.
"My!"
"Whoever grabs is who!"
The creature below that level of sand storm detected a dangerous approach, and suddenly speeded up and rushed towards the outside.
Shao Xuan saw a slender figure of soil color flashing through the doorway, rushing under the sand storm outside.
"It's a snake!" Shao Xuan reminded them to be careful. In places like this, snakes always have the ability to protect themselves, maybe they are very toxic.
Lei Hetuo still had a lot of hands and feet in the house, afraid to destroy the house and had nowhere to live. Now that the snake ran out, they were happy and rushed out the door.
The snake under sand storm was originally buried in it. As Thunder and Tuo approached quickly, it also ejected like a spring. It was a snake with a thumb thickness of one meter. It stood up and opened its mouth, exposing two fangs. Venom spurted out.
Shao Xuan standing at the door can hear the sound of venom corroding sand storm.
Tuo first cut off the snake head. After cutting off the snake head, he flattened it with a knife. When they are in the mountains, they catch snakes in this way, because some snakes bite people after their heads are chopped. After learning their lessons, every time they encounter snakes, no matter what, they use this Way to the last resort.
"Hah, mine!" Tuo swung towards Thunder with the headless snake body in his hand.
Lei didn't look at it again, as if he was listening carefully. Turn around and take two steps backwards, leaping, muscles tightened under the Totem Pattern covered with half of the arm. Swing the stone blade on your hand, and slash down vigorously towards a place.
Oh!
The hard dirt ground exploded, and among the soil masses and sand storm raised, a figure quickly emerged.
Shao Xuan stared at the creature that rushed out.
Pangolin?
No, the creature looks harder than the pangolin's scaled armor, and its body is more slender. It is almost two meters in color, similar to mud, and yellowish in sand. They did not move slowly because they were wearing a layer of hard armor, instead they were very agile.
The creature has always wanted to find a chance to run away, or to dig into the ground, but neither Lei and Tuo gave it a chance. Under the hands of Lei and Tuo, it was chopped before it lasted three breaths.
Long enough to stay outside, Lei dragged the creature, hurrying to peel. although saw this kind of creature for the first time, but I have encountered it similarly. They are not rusty when peeled off, they should be handled well after three or two times, and don't expect to have excess water to clean them. Lei Ti walked towards the house. Today their food is guaranteed. That layer of hard armor wasn't left, so I was able to defend myself with a handle.
They want to catch another one. It's a pity that the movement just now is too great. Even if it is still underground, it has been avoided, and we can only wait and see.
The movements of Lei He Tuo made the people who had been in the room resting around to open the windows or doors and saw everything that just happened outside.
Shao Xuan didn't make a move just now, just to guard against others, not just in the team. There are also some Rain Tribe people nearby. Not everyone at Rain Tribe is very friendly to them. Someone wanted to grab it just now, but saw Shao Xuan staring at them and didn't make a shot.
After all three Shao Xuan entered the house, other talents regained their sight.
"The Flaming Horn Tribe people are really ..." someone said in a room.
It's really how everyone thinks differently.
The Shao Xuan three burned a fire in the house and simply roasted the animal meat. although meat was not delicious. There is still a lot of sand on it, but it is much better than those hard flatbread.
After eating a bit. Shao Xuan intends to go out.
Lei Hetuo now knows the current Shaman of Shao Xuan understanding Rain Tribe, and didn't say much, and began to rest after eating. I woke up asleep and went outside to see if I could catch one or two more.
Along the sand, Shao Xuan went to the same hill as yesterday.
Yang Sui is still in that wooden house, holding a cow's tail in a daze. Came here early in the morning. A layer of gray was dropped on already.
"Why do you use a bull's tail in the rain?" Shao Xuan came in and asked.
After hearing Shao Xuan's question, Yang Sui just looked back, looked at Shao Xuan, and shake the oxtail in his hand. Did not hide, this is not a very important secret.
"It is said that in the very early days, the ancestors prayed for rain and used stones as a sacrifice. Those stones are not ordinary stones, but a type of stone called rain stone. If you dig in a nearby mountain, you can also dig To some. Black, hot days are also very cold. The rain stone we used for rain was almost one person tall. When we asked for rain, we held the oxtail in our hands and used it as a whip to whip rain stone. "
"Is this going to rain?" Shao Xuan asked.
"It should be accompanied by a sacrifice dance, but that is all an aid. The whip stone seeking rain is indeed the earliest way of asking for rain. But later, I do n’t know when the method of asking for rain changed. The ancestors said Behind rain stone, there are more ancient ancestors' spirits. They are the tribe's good weather and protectors of farming and harvest. They can eliminate diseases and disasters. Everyone is afraid of rain stone. To protect the tribe's prosperity, you can't tap rain stone again, otherwise it will come Woe. Those who whip will live! "
Yang Sui When saying these things, his tone was a little ironic, not to say that he did not respect his ancestors, but was skeptical of some things. These skeptics are not dared by ordinary people, and they don't think too much. Only those who have the deepest contact can go deep.
The so-called "whip is not alive" is probably because begging for rain is too costly to carry on and needs to be sacrificed as a price. People who are slightly weaker will probably be exhausted after one rain. In addition to what Yang Sui said, it is getting harder and harder to find rain. Shaman naturally has to bear a huge psychological burden. After all, in Rain Tribe, Shaman has been burned . Under the dual pressure of physical and psychological, it is only surprising that you can be comfortable. If you are weak, you will be able to drain all your physical strength and fart in one rain.
"Which is no longer whipstone and begging for rain, why use oxtail?" Shao Xuan pointed to the oxtail on Yang Sui's hand.
"This is for sin. Asking our ancestors, begging the gods, forgive us for our faults. The oxtail whip is offered to repay our sins." Yang Sui fluttered the oxtail on his hands, flashing irony in his eyes: "I heard that Shaman was asking for rain After being whipped by the gods. "
A draw on the Shao Xuan surface.
So, begging for rain is the transition from "would it not rain? Whip you without it" to "begging for begging for rain"? The people of Rain Tribe play s / m games of whipping and begging with their rain god? But after the fight, it will not rain! (To be continued ...)
