Seeing Shao Xuan come out of the house, the Shaman's serious face showed a rare smile. "You've seen it all?"
"Yes, I've seen it all." Shao Xuan came in front of the Shaman and sat cross-legged on the animal skin cushion on the ground. He couldn't let the Shaman look up at him all the time. He was worried about her neck.
"Our ancestors have always wanted to go back to the old land. Every year, we send people to the other side of the sea to see if there is a chance to go back. But every year, the results are disappointing. I didn't expect to meet you." The Shaman sighed.
"I don't know if I can go back there safely. At that time, I was forced to do so. I was lucky enough to survive, but I don't know if I can go back again. Why don't I go and see?" Shao Xuan asked.
"Please don't!" The Shaman hurriedly stopped him. She didn't want Shao Xuan to take this risk. It was rare to meet people from the other side. What if something happened? She couldn't even cry.
Shao Xuan recalled the ancestors' experiences recorded in the animal skin scroll and thought about what he had encountered. He said, "When I came from the bottom of the sea, there was only some dry seaweed in the passage. There was nothing else. I haven't seen the red and blue flowers recorded in the ancestors' records."
"So you'd better not take the risk. The opportunity can wait, but if you're gone, there's no other way." The Shaman advised. She was about to say something else when she thought of something. Her whole body trembled and she looked at Shao Xuan in disbelief. "You, you, you … you can understand the Wu Roll?!"
In the written records, there was no mention of any red or blue flowers in the passage. Only the Wu Roll described them in detail. People who didn't understand the Wu Roll wouldn't know this. If she hadn't copied it herself and looked at it often, she wouldn't have remembered it so clearly.
"Yes." Shao Xuan thought that after the people here merged the fire seed into their bodies, there would be some other changes. Maybe they could understand the Wu Roll, but now it seemed that this was not the case.
"Can't others see it?" Shao Xuan asked.
"Can people on your side see it?" The Shaman was even more shocked.
Shao Xuan shook his head. "On our side, besides the Shaman, I'm the only one who can understand it."
"You're from the other side?!" The Shaman asked in surprise.
"No, I'm an elder. We have a shaman on our side. He's about the same age as you, but he's already groomed an excellent successor."
"Why can't you?!" At this moment, the old lady imagined a lot of slave owners fighting for power and profit to launch a variety of you pitting me, I pitted you drama.
The tribe's fire seed hadn't merged with the people, so there were much fewer people who could understand the Shaman Paintings. According to the records of the ancestors, almost everyone who could understand the Shaman Paintings became the Shaman of the tribe, just like Chi a thousand years ago. Therefore, the old lady felt that since there was a person with talent comparable to Chi in the past, the shaman of the tribe should train Shao Xuan well!
If If Shaman, he, he, the, the the the Shaman '' '' The Shaman thought. thought..
"No, he said it many times, but I refused." Shao Xuan explained. He couldn't let the old man be the scapegoat.
"Why don't you want to?" The Shaman wondered. She hadn't found the most suitable successor in the tribe. Although there were a few people who could see some of the things on the Wu Roll, they couldn't really understand it. They needed to be trained for a long time. They were far from Shao Xuan's level.
"I'm not suitable." Shao Xuan said. He couldn't tell the Shaman that he was born restless, always running around and causing trouble. If such a person became a witch, he didn't know if it would lead the tribe in a strange direction. Moreover, in such a big environment, Shao Xuan didn't think his survival wisdom was better than these people.
She wanted to persuade Shao Xuan to take over her position, but after hearing this, the Shaman swallowed her words. She wanted to scold Shao Xuan, but she couldn't bear to. The muscles on her face trembled due to the complex changes in her emotions. She suddenly had the urge to kowtow to the ancestors who had passed away, to vent the emotions in her heart that were like ten thousand beasts running wildly.
After chatting with the Shaman for a while, Shao Xuan came out.
As soon as Shao Xuan came out, he was stopped. Chief Zheng Luo took him to a place on the top of the mountain. It used to be an open space, but now it was busy. Stones were piled up, and thick logs were moved over. The sound of chopping could be heard.
A house was being built here. Chief Zheng Luo had ordered people to build it for Shao Xuan.
"It might not be finished before tonight. You can sleep at my place for the night, and it will be finished tomorrow. You don't have to worry about anything. There are animal hides that have been dried, baked pottery, and so on." Zheng Luo pointed in that direction, then shouted at the people who kept glancing over curiously, "Pay attention to what you're doing, don't look to the side! You, stop looking! You almost chopped off your own hand! "
The people who were yelled at quickly looked away. Even though they were curious about Shao Xuan, they didn't dare to wander off recklessly with the Chief here.
After Zheng Luo showed Shao Xuan the house under construction, he continued walking up the mountain. Along the way, he introduced some of the more special places in the tribe, such as the fire pit for sacrificial ceremonies, and the storehouse for centralized storage.
Shao Xuan felt like a monkey in a crowd. He was surrounded by curious gazes, as if they were looking at something rare. When he wasn't paying attention, he was surrounded by a circle of people. When Zheng Luo yelled at him, the crowd dispersed. After a while, new people gathered. When the Chief yelled again, the crowd dispersed again, repeating the process over and over again.
They couldn't be blamed for being curious. Previously, when Duo Kang's horn sounded, it scared the tribesmen into preparing for battle. In the end, the Chief and the other leaders went up the mountain in silence. The cause of the incident was a young man, and it was said that this young man was from the Yanjiao!
Could he be a stray descendant of the tribe?
But even if he was a stray descendant, he wouldn't be personally accompanied by the Chief. A few years ago, there were people who disappeared for a long time who came back with their wives and children, but the shaman and the leaders never treated them like this. Looking at the smile on the Chief's face, it was the first time they realised that the Chief could smile so amiably. Tsk, it gave them goosebumps.
What happened at the foot of the mountain, the strange expressions of the chiefs and elders, and the welcoming ceremony that would be held in two days, all made the people in the tribe curious, just like the bubbles in the boiling water, bubbling and bubbling.
Duo Kang's son, Duo Li, was gossiping with Tao Zheng and the others. They had just been yelled at by the Chief and were grilling meat while discussing Shao Xuan.
As they were talking, Tao Zheng elbowed Duo Li, who was gnawing on a beast leg, and pointed his chin in a direction, indicating for him to look there.
Duo Li raised his head and saw his father passing by with a pensive expression. Without wiping his mouth, Duo Li hugged the beast leg and ran over, shouting.
"Father, father!"
"I haven't returned to the fire seed yet, what are you shouting for?!" Duo Kang scolded. The tribesmen would also be cremated at the fire pit after they died. They believed that the souls of the deceased would return to the fire seed with their ancestors and their descendants.
"Aren't I afraid you'll run away?" Duo Li handed the beast leg that he had gnawed on to his father to please him.
Duo Kang looked at the beast leg with disdain and ignored it, planning to leave.
"Hey, don't go. Tell us about that Shao Xuan," Duo Li hurriedly said.
Tao Zheng and the others who were grilling meat by the fire pricked up their ears, afraid that they would miss a word.
If it was in the past, Duo Kang would definitely notice that they were eavesdropping, but now he was full of thoughts and didn't pay attention to them at all.
Duo Kang looked at his son's curious eyes and thought about how to describe the two tribes that shared the same bloodline.
After a moment of silence, Duo Kang said, "If I tell you …"
"Yes! Tell me what?! "Duo Li looked at his father expectantly.
Tao Zheng and the others pricked up their ears even higher, wishing that they could stretch their ears a little longer to eavesdrop more clearly.
"If I tell you that you have a brother …"
Duo Li's hands trembled and he almost dropped the beast leg he was hugging.
"Brother … brother? What brother? "Duo Li stuttered.
Duo Kang pondered over his words and continued, "Same father, same mother, born at the same time as you, biological brother!"
Thud! The beast leg fell from Duo Li's hands.
