Chapter 185 Tianwei
Reading and thinking at the same time, I don’t feel uncomfortable anymore.
Time soon arrived in the evening. Outside the cave, in the valley, the great witch sat on a big rock, with his eyes closed, and murmured a prayer in his mouth.
That is the epic song of the Erlin tribe.
In front of him, countless people were kneeling, and as time went by, more and more people gathered.
Many tribal leaders who had completed the transaction sent people to transport the goods first, then came to the valley themselves, found a place to sit down on their knees, and prayed together.
Most of them were very confused. They felt that what the little Han wizard said was very reasonable, but they also felt that if he was reasonable, it would prove that there were problems with the past rituals in their tribe. It was difficult to make a decision for a while.
However, they had a vague feeling deep in their hearts that the kindness and cuteness of the little Han wizard seemed to be closer to them emotionally than the big wizard who had slaughtered countless human beings.
For the great witch, there is respect, fear, and fear.
I feel close to, trust and admire the little Han wizard.
Now, there is more admiration and pity.
A person who can sacrifice himself for the tribe, even if he is a Han, their emotions have been connected since then.
Forget it, leave everything to God's will... Among the people who came, ninety-nine out of a hundred thought so, but this did not prevent them from willingly blessing the little Han wizard in the cave.
The sun set again, and lights lit up in the valley. Atunmi took the lead and sang songs spread among the tribe.
The song seemed to come from a distant place, telling an ancient story.
Legend has it that in ancient times, a dragon eagle dropped three drops of blood from the sky, which fell on the body of the virtuous girl Pu'ao Yi, and the girl became pregnant.
It is more auspicious for a baby to be born during the day, but Pu Lao Yi gave birth to a child named Zhige Alu on the night of the Dragon Moon and Dragon Day in the Year of the Dragon.
As soon as he was born, he disobeyed his mother.
On the first day, when his mother wanted to hug him, he broke away and took pleasure in shaking the heaven and earth.
The next day, he refused to drink milk, didn't want to be swaddled in swaddling clothes, and he didn't want to be carried.
On the third day, he refused to sleep next to his mother.
On the fourth day, he began to show a ghostly appearance.
On the fifth day, no one in the house knew what to do with him, so they put him in a copper box and took him to the hillside.
The child's cries disturbed the heaven. Emperor Enti Guzi sent the ogre king Tang Boamo to capture Alu mother and son.
When the mother and son were caught in the air, the mother threw Alu down to save her son and fell into the dragon's lair in the abyss. From then on, Zhige Alu grew into a hero with incomparable power under the care of the dragon.
When he grew up, Zhige Alu rode a flying horse named Simududian that was transformed from a condor to rescue his mother from the sky prison.
Along the way, he specialized in getting rid of harm for the people. He eliminated monsters, conquered poisonous snakes and beasts, and tamed thunder and lightning.
He used his magical bow and arrows to shoot down five of the six suns and six of the seven moons in the sky, leaving only one sun and one moon. From then on, people lived a happy and beautiful life.
In order to take revenge, the god Enti Guzi sent minions to the mortal world to harm all living beings and crops. Under the leadership of Zhige Alu, people were not afraid and burned the pests with torches, defeating the god.
This day has been designated as a human festival. People light torches on this day to commemorate heroes and pass them on from generation to generation.
The singing gets louder and louder, and more and more people respond. The story of heroic humans fighting against vicious gods finally ends with the victory of humans.
This song is very long, it seems to be longer than the epic poem of the great witch. It is so long that the moon rises from the east, then moves from the east to the west, and then gradually sets behind the west mountain.
The dark shadows of the mountains began to become clearer, and the birds in the mountains began to chirp gracefully.
Slowly, mountains become mountains, trees become trees, clouds become clouds, and fog becomes fog.
It seems like another ordinary day is about to begin.
At this moment, a violent roar like the arrival of a thunder god suddenly came from the divine cave halfway up the mountain.
A terrifying air current rushed out along with countless small debris. The clouds and mist at the entrance of the cave were instantly dispersed by the air current. At that moment, people could even see the locked entrance of the copper door at a glance, and then were gushed out of the cave.
The rising clouds and mist were instantly submerged in mystery.
Frightened birds all over the mountain fluttered their wings, filling the sky across the entire valley.
The horses in the valley were so frightened that they ran away in all directions, and many were so frightened that they even fell to the ground, feces and urine flowing out.
Then, countless muntjacs, yellow sheep, red jackals and even leopards were frightened and ran around, flashing panicked figures in the mountains and forests.
Everyone was stunned and stood up. You looked at me and I looked at you, with fear and shock in their eyes.
A look of extreme shock flashed across the eyes of the great witch, and then he let out a long sigh, seeming to have suddenly become much older.
The power of heaven and earth was unheard of in his lifetime of sacrificial experience, not even in the experience of his master, his master's master.
This change can only be brought about by that child.
Since it was brought about by Han children, this change could only be a change that was detrimental to the evil god in the cave.
…
In fact, the closer the deadline came, the more nervous Su You became.
But the spirit of the child cannot last long, and it is already a bit unbearable.
Su You finally thought of a way. He didn't even remember which book he had read about it. He could put incense sticks between his toes and light them. This would wake him up regularly and ensure that he would not fall into a deep sleep.
There is also a bunch of incense in the bookcase, which is just for show.
If you want to come in and debate with the gods, you must burn incense first.
But since he came in, he threw this thing aside.
This is the last resort to survive the last night.
At some point during the torment, I heard a "bang" coming from the depths of the cave. It was the sound of metal hitting the ground.
Su You jumped up like a reflex, first lit the bonfire, then took the torch next to him and burned it, and ran towards the passage around the gourd's waist.
In the firelight, the end of the narrow passage sandwiched between bamboo shelves and broken bamboo mats was pitch black.
Soon, two lights appeared in the darkness of the passage, which were the firelight reflected from the giant snake's eyes.
Gradually, a huge snake head appeared, larger than Su You's own head, followed by a narrowed neck, and then, a huge and terrifying body with black scales.
After two days of great fear, now that it was finally over, Su You became calm as usual.
Even if the explosion couldn't kill the giant snake, the loud sound of the explosion would definitely scare it back. After tonight, you would be considered safe.
The huge snake head passed through the narrow passage. Without hesitation, Su You lit the fuse with the torch in his hand and threw the steel pipe into the narrowest part of the passage.
Then he turned around and hid on the side of the front cave near the passage, squatted down, covered his ears with his hands, opened his mouth wide, and left his back a short distance away from the stone wall.
Every second of the waiting time was as long as a century. It was so long that Su You felt that the big snake should have crawled out of the hole completely, ready to devour him.
I turned around and looked at the entrance of the cave, but there was nothing there.
Immediately afterwards, there was a violent explosion, and countless pieces of bamboo, broken mats, stones, flesh and blood, and even a snake body with a snake head, spurted out from the entrance of the cave along with gunpowder smoke and firelight.
Su You felt as if he was standing next to a huge mortar and watching it fire out weird shotguns.
He had no idea that his bomb would be so terrifyingly powerful in a relatively confined space. He saw countless debris fan-shaped by the explosion wave and sprayed into the front hole. Some of the rubble was sprayed directly from the cracks in the bronze door.
After reaching the entrance of the cave, some of them clanged against the copper railings and bounced back in all directions inside the cave. Su You was so frightened that he quickly turned around and huddled up.
Countless pebbles hit the stone wall in front of me, and many of them landed on my back. It really hurt!
Su You had only one thought in his mind: He should not be lazy, he should use wood to build a bunker behind him!
The roar echoed in the cave for a long time, and in Su You's ears for even longer.
