The Wu tribe has made a big move this time. It is about to face a battle that has been delayed for a thousand years. It will inevitably affect everyone in the tribe. After the house, it was arranged.
Their core battlefield is the place where the tribe is located. The Ku tribe is also one of the few tribes that uses their habitat as a battlefield, and to withdraw all the people who cannot participate in the tribe from the battlefield, they have to withdraw all the people from the tribe. scope.
Silk Bones' plan was for those people to leave through the sub-tribe's underground caverns and find a place to hide. The people of the sub-tribe are not powerful in combat, but they are still very powerful in finding a place to hide.
The person who came out of the ground that Silk Bone once saw under his house belonged to the sub-tribe. The sub-tribe would not participate in the war, but would help the Khu tribe to send people away.
Therefore, in the next two days, there will often be wounded pregnant women and children with packages, etc., enter through the underground cave under the silk bone house, and then leave along the cave, and there will be sub-tribe people in the underground cave to guide them. .
In the past two days, there have been more beasts nearby, especially the people patrolling at night. They can even hear the clear sound of water waves on the river bank. Now the giant beast is no longer hidden, and the people of the Ku tribe also Not near the river bank, only guarding on the edge of the tribe, hunting down the beasts who broke into the tribe.
On the third day, it was very quiet in the Kou tribe, there was no noise from the children, and no one was running around.
When the sun was high, Wu Wu walked out of the house, and after landing, he walked towards the fire pit.
People from other parts of the Ku tribe also came out of the house and gathered towards the fire pond.
Before the hunt begins, they also have an important ritual.
The net is a tool and a belief for the people of the Kou tribe.
Maybe people from other tribes don’t think how a net can be, but every time before the official hunting and after returning from the hunt, the people of the Ku tribe will hold special ceremonies, such as the mobilization meeting before the Flaming Horn hunting, after the hunting is over. There will also be a saber-washing ceremony, as will the Ku tribe.
The more important the action, the more complex the ritual.
For many tribes, as long as there are people, tools, and strength for hunting, it is enough, but the people of the Ku tribe think that it is more than that. For them, there is also the most important procedure, which is also necessary before a major hunt - ritual!
If there is no such ceremony, the people of the Khu tribe will feel that no matter how powerful you are, no matter how skilled your hunting skills are, and no matter how sharp your tools are, without a ceremony, there will be no satisfactory hunting. , unable to achieve the purpose of their plan.
That ritual will give them the power of the hunting net in their hands, and this power will give them a satisfactory result in their hunting, they will not miss their goal, they will catch enough prey, and all the tools will achieve maximum effect.
When it comes to rituals, it is natural to mention the witch. The witch is the host of the ritual. All important ceremonies of the tribe are inseparable from the witch. The witch is the most critical person in this ritual. Without the witch, the ritual would not exist. Hunting The hunting net cannot be empowered, and the hunt will end bleak.
It can be said that in the eyes of the Ku tribe, hunting is a witchcraft operation, and the witch will decide the time of the hunting operation, the hunting method and so on. The main hunting method of the Khu tribe is net hunting, and witches play a crucial role in net hunting, which is why the status of the Kwu tribe's witches is detached, and the status of their leaders is far less than that of the witches. Every important action of theirs can be without a leader, but it must not be without a witch.
When Wu Wu came to the fire pond, Silk Gu and others had already arrived ahead of schedule. And inside the fire pond, there is a fire pond full of hunting nets!
The hunting nets piled up like hills blocked the fire in the fire pit, and did not burn due to the fire in the fire pit.
If you look closely, you will find that the hunting nets piled up in the fire pond are different from the hunting nets used by the Ku tribe in the past, because the fierce beast they are about to deal with is far more powerful than the beasts they hunted in the past! Ordinary grass rope nets can't stop the ominous creature, let alone hunt it, so all they use this time are the best nets they can make. Every year, the raw materials are collected in the appropriate season, and then the hemp fibers are stored. When they are needed, these treasured materials are used to weave the highest-level hunting nets.
"Ready?" Wu looked away from the fire pool and looked at Silk Gu and the others in front of him.
"Okay." Silk Gu looked at the people who had gathered. These people are all participants in this operation, there are about 1,300 people in total, and more than half of them will be responsible for peripheral operations, and most of them have some experience. They are not rich warriors. Most of them are junior totem warriors, while the other half will stay in the core position. Most of them are intermediate and advanced totem warriors, and experienced people will be responsible for the core position.
"In that case," Wu Wu's face became solemn, "Sacrificing the net!"
Everyone who gathered here spontaneously formed a long queue. It was not the first time they had done such a thing, so there was no need to say more.
The silk bone in the first row on the far left strode towards the fire pit, then stopped by the fire pit and stretched out his palm.
Wu Wu took out a long and narrow leaf that was withered and yellow. The dry leaf was very thin and looked very brittle. It seemed that a gap would appear when touched.
Wu Wu clamped the leaf with three fingers, waved his hand, and the withered grass blade was like a thin sharp knife, neatly slicing the palm of the silk bone.
Following the trajectory of the blade of grass, the blood was drawn out of a line, slipped from the hands of the silk bones, and fell into the fire pit. The whole process took less than one breath.
Silk bone left to the side, and the second person stepped forward and stretched out his hand just like Silk bone.
Everyone involved in the war will drop their blood into the fire pit.
Even if there are more than 1,000 people here, it does not take too long. When the last person finishes, it only takes a little more than half an hour.
After everyone who was present was done, Kwu Wu flicked the leaf into the fire pit with a flick of his finger, and inserted it into the hunting net that was piled up into a hill.
What is the symbolic meaning of the net
Conquer!
conquer!
As the ceremony continued, this idea seemed to have dispersed along with the sacrifice net.
Inside and around the Ku tribe, an anxious and restless breath began to flow. The birds that used to fly here have long since left, and the flying insects hidden behind the leaves have spread their wings and flew away in a hurry.
Another reason why the people of the Ku tribe refused to intervene in Yanjiao was because, if the net was opened, the Yanjiao people would not be able to take action at all! On the contrary, it will even deviate from the Zhang net.
In the Yanhe River, the calm water waves rolled, as if something was stirring vigorously below, and the water was about to burst out.
