Bonia is a short and small girl, completely different from the "Witch Witch" that Hao Ren had previously guessed. She wore a dark red robe that was too wide, and her long brown hair was braided behind her, and her hair was woven with colorful silk threads for decoration. This little girl hid timidly behind the adults, watching the movements of Vivian and Hao Ren with big shiny eyes, and she dared to salute Vivian until Gesell called her out: it did n’t look like a body at all. The high-ranking role of "Virgin".
"Benia was just chosen as a virgin last year," the elder of the Fire Tribe, the middle-aged strong man like a soldier explained a little embarrassingly, "the last virgin died suddenly , Bernia did n’t even have time to learn the incantation and sacrificial knowledge before she took the rush to take office. However, her belief in gods and her talent as a saint are no problem, and she will be able to be your guide. "
Vivian looked at the timid little girl curiously. The latter blinked her eyes carefully and looked at her carefully, and said in a very small voice: "Goddess, praise ... praise you, your advent gives the earth ... … The earth is terrified ... ”
It's almost like crying.
"Take us to the place where the witch was buried," Vivian said directly, not letting the little girl continue to be nervous, "others don't need to follow."
No one expressed any opinion on the arrangement of Vivian. Gezer retired with the fighters of the Fire Tribe. When Hao Ren heard that they had left, they had already begun to talk about the passing of the goddess and how Gezer immediately came The tribe of the wind arrived at this place. But Bernia was left alone. She carefully looked at Vivian and lifted her finger to the root of the giant tree of Tianzhu: "There, it is far away to enter the pillar of eternity."
The giant tree of Tianzhu is so huge that a root must be called a mountain, and a small hole in the trunk can be called a tunnel. The tribe of fire lives at the foot of this giant tree, but their range of activities Not much bigger than a group of ants who nest in the roots of trees. The "Temple" referred to by Bernia is a tribal shrine located in the center of the giant tree in Tianzhu. How far is it from the nearest root to the center of the trunk?
A dozen kilometers.
The miracle plant created by First born is so magnificent and amazing.
Hao Ren took Bernia and drove directly to that holy place.
This giant gigantic tree is similar to the one originally passed by a group of people. It is also hollow. After entering the interior through a triangular crack in the root of the trunk, you will see a huge dark space. But the difference is that there are many traces of human activity here as the base of the fire tribe. There are some lights distributed on the open space inside the giant tree. There is a broad avenue that has been repaired from the trunk crack to the center. At the end of this road, Hao Ren saw the so-called "temple" in Bernia's mouth. Unlike other temples he had seen, the building in front of him was much simpler than imagined. It was just a pile of wood and stones. The building that is somewhat imitated by the Pyramid of Dora Sil is not gorgeous, not even grandiose.
Of course, even so, it is still much stronger than the tribal felt house outside.
"The witch and the virgin 400 years ago were buried behind the shrine," Bernia seemed to feel much relieved when she came here, and she took the initiative to show the Vivian a little boldly, "It's very quiet here, only for ceremonies Only when there are soldiers come here. "
Lily is now looking up at the chaotic darkness above, which undoubtedly leads to the surface crust of the purgatory planet: "If you build a house here ... will not be dropped from above Did something hit you? "
Benjaya was dumbfounded and whispered: "Occasionally ... something will fall."
Lily was startled: "Isn't that very dangerous?"
Bonia keeps a blank expression, as if she never thought about this question: "Goddess bless, so no problem."
Lily feels incredible: "What if it gets smashed? Is it even smashed to death?"
"Then ... still be blessed by the goddess, you should be able to be with the goddess if you are smashed to death," Bernia said in a daze, and quickly glanced up at Vivian, "is it?"
Vivian looked at the vast darkness above her head, she was guilty of herself, not to mention blessing others, but in the face of Bernia ’s stubborn problems, she still nodded stubbornly: "Will bless you, will bless you Yours-but I still suggest that you do n’t want to move in the trunk anymore. You can go outside for the ceremony. This pillar leads to the surface. If something falls, it ’s not done by smashing a bag. "
Benjaya did n’t know if she understood it, but just stunned her head up and down, then took a group to see the witch ’s grave.
Behind the "Temple" is a large open space surrounded by round stones, with many stone bags stacked with gravel arranged neatly on the open space. The stone bags themselves are no different, but there is a rough stone pillar at the top of the stone bag, and the pillars are written with pictographs and simple information such as the tomb owner's name. The witch from earth, who has explored the depths of Inferno Star and has an extraordinary life experience, fell asleep in this cemetery, her stone bag mixed with other people, there is nothing special.
Bonia points to the witch ’s grave. The text on the stone pillar is just a simple sentence: Witch, friend, stranger, you are sleeping here, may your soul return to your hometown in your sleep.
"That's it." Bernia said, bending over in front of the stone bag and performing a simple blessing and comfort with a complex and strange gesture.
Vivian looked at the tombs around with curiosity: "Here are the saints of the tribe of the fire tribe buried here?"
Bonia shook her head up and down: "Yeah."
"You allow a foreigner--and may it be that the" cursed "foreigner and the virgins are buried together?" Heather Anna took over the words, "You have no taboos in this respect?"
"This was specially allowed by the virgin at the time. It is said that the virgin and the witch were very good friends. They cured the original black spot plague together," Bernia said, suddenly looking nervously. A glance at Vivian, "Isn't this ... not enough?"
Vivian immediately waved its hand: "Oh no, it's okay, this is fine."
"Except for this grave, what did the witch leave behind?" Hao Ren was not satisfied with only one grave head in front of her, "Relics, messages, or other legends will do. Say you won't take her things Are they all buried together? "
As he talked, he gave Lily a subconscious look. He said that if the witch ’s relics had been buried, she had to let Lily put the grave away. Anyway, she was the best at digging holes. Lily noticed that Hao Ren's eyes were suddenly full of excitement, with his paws hidden behind Nangong Wuyue: "Don't look at me, Landlord! Digging a hole is not the same as digging a grave!"
Fortunately, what the witch left behind was not buried, as expected by Hao Ren, people who accidentally fell into this situation will find ways to pass on their affairs to their compatriots who might visit here again. The witch left a lot of things, and the indigenous friends who entrusted her to keep it properly.
Benjaya led a group of people into the shrine (actually a larger stone house), and found some seriously discolored parchment rolls and engraved stone tablets from an old stone box. There are many miscellaneous things: "This is what the witch left behind."
If Hao Ren is a treasure, these things are what he wants. Vivian also could not wait to check the relics. She saw scrolls and pieces of paper made of black goatskin, as well as a ceremonial knife carved from obsidian, a glass bottle once filled with potions, some pieces of cloth, and a pair of old , The special gloves that witches often wear when boiling soup, these things undoubtedly come from the earth. She even found a coin from eight centuries ago in these piles of old objects. This small piece of rusty metal that hardly looked like made her stunned for a long time: "... ten thousand years, a whole ten thousand years. Yes, I picked up the money for the first time ... "
Hao Ren snapped the coins out of Vivian: "Do n’t make trouble, this is not what you picked up, this is someone ’s relic."
"It's almost the same," Vivian whispered, "I used to dig someone's grave before and found no money."
"Cough," Hao Ren hurriedly coughed to expose the topic, "Let ’s see what is written on these parchment papers." (To be continued.)
