The first fire of the three fires in the fire pit, Yanteng! Totem now!
The totem power in the body became active without being actively mobilized, and the totem lines on each totem warrior's face were also clearly displayed.
The blue and red in Shao Xuan's mind jumped with the flames.
Not sure if it was his own illusion, Shao Xuan felt that the flames in the fire pond had risen even higher than this time last year, and were more intense, as if they would float out if he wasn't paying attention.
Standing next to the stake, he couldn't move around, so Shao Xuan couldn't observe other people's expressions. He didn't know if others had the same idea, and he couldn't hear the slightest abnormality from Wu's voice. Shao Xuan could only hug Doubt.
At this moment, the people present no longer thought about other things, and looked at the totem in the fire pond reverently.
The surroundings were brightly lit, and the entire mountain top was shrouded in a layer of fire.
The witch's singing became more and more high-pitched.
Boom! dong dong!
A drum beat with a specific rhythm, as well as the sound of bone tapping and stone hitting, suddenly sounded, which also meant that Shao Xuan was about to start dancing.
As the witch chanted, the people beside the stake began to dance along the fire.
As an ancient dance handed down from the beginning of the tribe's establishment, Shao Xuan still underestimated it.
It's not that the movements are difficult, and it's not that I'm embarrassed in front of so many people "washing dishes", "digging vegetables", and "throwing rags", but, when he jumped up, Shao Xuancai really realized the mystery, and the awkward feeling was also Disappearing.
The sound of stepping on the ground, as well as the faint sound of fifty people waving their arms, gradually unified and blended into the surrounding percussion.
The originally weird rhythm became harmonious after adding the sounds made by these sacrificial dancers.
Shao Xuan has been practicing this sacrificial dance at home for a while, and he has memorized every movement by heart.
When dancing, Shao Xuan used the breathing and breathing method specially used for sacrificial dance to perceive the connection between the totems according to the ancient teachings said by Tuo.
Gradually, Shao Xuan felt that he seemed to be connected to his surroundings.
The totems in the fire pond and the totems in their minds seem to be gradually synchronizing. I don’t know if the former assimilates the latter, or whether the latter affects the former. Shao Xuan doesn’t know the totems in the minds of other sacrificial dancers. such a change.
If you want to say different, there are only those blue flames in the totem of the mind, which are not found in the fire pool.
Gu Xun said, "Do your best to establish contact with the totems in the fire pond." Shao Xuan felt that he had not yet fully connected with the totems of the fire pond, so he tried to mobilize the blue flames in his mind, and with Shao Xuan's mind The accumulation of medium-blue flames increases the overall flame body of the totem.
At the same time, the flames in the fire pond also rolled up violently, and the flame body almost doubled in height in an instant, scaring an old warrior with rich experience in sacrificial dances to almost jump wrong. After all, after dancing for so many years, he has never encountered such a thing. Fortunately, the adaptability is strong, so I quickly calmed down and continued to dance.
Everything around is going on, but everyone looks at the fifty people beating around the fire pond, and they always feel that it is a little different from previous years.
It's as if these people are no longer sacrificial dancers waving their hands and feet around the fire, no longer in such a situation, but warriors equipped with short knives and spears, ready to set off to hunt!
Even the dancing experienced sacrificial dancers felt that they were different this time from previous years.
The momentum of fifty in one is full of fierce power and exudes an invincible majesty.
If Shao Xuan is to use an analogy, even the action of washing dishes can make people feel powerful and incomparable.
I don't know when, the fire pool has entered the second flame, and the fire balls flew out from the fire pit toward the surrounding, in a radial shape. Because the original flame body in the fire pit was raised, the fire balls that flew out seemed to be larger than in previous years.
With the breathing technique and the perception of the totem in meditation, Shao Xuan could feel every flame flying towards him.
touch, then absorb.
There is some new energy flowing in the body, which is brought by these flying flames, and gathers in one place along the meridians.
The totem flame in my mind expanded rapidly with these newly absorbed sparks.
If it is said that the energy that others absorb from the sparks is just a trickle of slowly accumulating, then what these people who are beating by the fire is like a river flowing into the sea. Probably this is the advantage of the sacrificial dancer and the benefits, Shao Xuan thought to himself.
When Shao Xuan listened to Mai and the others, he said that the state of the totem in his mind is closely related to the speed of strength improvement. In this way, the benefits of being able to stay beside the fire pond during sacrifices can be imagined, and it is no wonder that the two big bosses desperately want more people from their hunting party to come in every year. But no matter what, there are only fifty places per year.
The sacrificial ceremony was still going on, and Shao Xuan could not be distracted.
When the third Yan is over, the ceremony will come to an end.
Shao Xuan didn't know how far the third Yan's Yan Zhan had reached, but Wu Yi "greatly" made the people on the top of the mountain cheer.
The awakening ceremony for the eighty or so children closest to the fire was over.
Shao Xuan, who stopped moving, looked at it. These children had totem patterns on their faces. If you look closely, none of them were missed.
In the past, every batch of children who came over, there were always a few failed awakenings and had to wait another year, but this year, all awakened successfully!
Not only Shao Xuan was surprised, but even Wu did not expect such a result. There are four of them. During the pre-selection, Wu felt that his awakening would be delayed by a year, but he didn't want to, and he also awakened this time.
Wu glanced at the back of Shao Xuan's departure, then lowered his eyelids, and listened to the leader Ao, who came over, talking about the idea of this sacrificial ceremony, and prepared for the next thing.
When the ceremony was over, people who came to participate in the sacrifice had to go down the mountain to celebrate, but the witch said "good luck".
After Shao Xuan said a few words to Tu and Jaba in the past, he and Lao Ke planned to go down the mountain together.
As soon as he turned around, Shao Xuan met the Buckwheat couple who had just finished talking to the Sunshine brothers and sisters.
"Ah Xuan, you still have 20 days for Caesar's matter." Mai said, "However, since you can be selected as one of the fifty people, this way, Caesar's matter will be easier to resolve."
Last year's first hunt was when the tower's hunting team set off, and it took turns. This year's first hunt went to the Guihe, followed by the tower's hunting team. Therefore, after the sacrificial ceremony, Shao Xuan still has 20 days to convince the rest of the hunting team, and the tower has to say something.
Well, the witch also wants to talk about it.
Shao Xuan intends to take Caesar to hunt this year. He has been in the hunting team for nearly a year and has also analyzed the dangers and pros and cons. Of course, theories are still theories. In the mountains, any accident may happen, and no one can say that it is absolutely safe , it's always good to be cautious.
Therefore, Shao Xuan planned that if Caesar did not behave well after taking Caesar out, he and Caesar would stop at the first hunting stronghold so as not to delay the hunting of others.
In the next few days, Shao Xuan took Caesar to Wu's place and shared his thoughts. The result was as Shao Xuan expected. Wu did not object. Instead, he had some expectations. He even allowed that something was wrong. Shao Xuan could take Caesar and stay at the first stronghold to wait.
Now that Wudu has spoken, Ta has not said any more. Moreover, he has always remembered Shao Xuan's sentence last year, "A good dog is the eyes and ears of a hunter." What kind of performance will a wolf who has lost its spirit. If he did well, he wouldn't mind giving more convenience.
After dealing with Wu and Ta, Shao Xuan invited the members of the Mai hunting team to the training ground together, and let them watch a Caesar's training and gain an understanding of Caesar's performance.
Everyone thought that since the witch, the big boss, and Mai agreed, they couldn't possibly object. Moreover, Shao Xuan entered the list of fifty people in this sacrifice, and they didn't want to offend him.
After watching one of Caesar's training, some people also shouted that they would like to pick up a wolf cub and raise it in the future. Anyway, there are often fights between wolves in the mountain forest. They will be chased and killed. They have met a few times, and maybe they can take the opportunity to pick up a few and come back.
After getting the people from the hunting team, Shao Xuan began to prepare for the hunting. The stone tools are ready in winter and do not need to be polished again. Caesar's training is still carried out every day. Shao Xuan has also deepened the difficulty of some traps to see how it reacts.
Caesar is very smart, except for some too complicated, many skills taught by Shao Xuan can be learned.
"Have you ever thought about what to do in the future?" Lao Ke asked.
"Zhacha is not as honest as Caesar, and maybe it has avoided us and flew out of the tribe's range a few times." Shao Xuan said. Once he found some grass clippings on the hairs around Chacha's mouth. That grass is not owned by the tribe, but only in the area near the hunting forest.
Shao Xuan taught it a lesson that time, and he was honest for a while, but now he can't bear it anymore. Now that Chacha has grown a lot, in half a year, Shao Xuan's arm will probably not be enough for it to rest, but according to Wu, this creature is still in its infancy, there is curiosity, and it can't be controlled. To fly to the sky, no one can do anything about it.
Now, Chacha has flown to the river to play. Sometimes, he will fly quickly over the water surface, grab the fish that are moving on the water surface, shred them and throw them into the water, watching the piranhas in the water scramble.
This bird is not easy to tame. It must be tame to the extent that it can be brought out with the hunting team. I don’t know when it will be done.
Twenty days later, Guihe's hunting team has not returned, but the tower has determined the number of places to go out for hunting, and notified them from top to bottom.
Looking at Caesar who was following Shao Xuan up the mountain, Lao Ke suddenly felt that he was quite reluctant to give up. In the blink of an eye, the little wolf cub brought back by Lang Ga two years ago has grown so big.
