Faced with the sudden appearance of the eye of the gods from the Ba tribe, the tribes who came to participate in the witch leader conference were frightened and at the same time even more surprised and excited.
Especially the Ji Cang Clan and other allied tribes who have long respected Xu Chen like a god.
The more powerful and magical the Ba people are, the more powerful they will develop and the more blessings and protection they will receive from the gods.
The tribes organized by the Gonghuo Alliance to attend the conference became even more chaotic and shaken.
In the past, the Gonghuo Tribe was so powerful because they had great witches and the largest population, but they had never shown such a powerful divine aura.
The Ba people not only have the old mother goddess, but also more powerful witches and magical witch kings. The new skills they now learn, such as twisting ropes, weaving baskets, nets, fishing, building houses, and farming, are all spread from the Ba people.
Last time I came, the old mother goddess of the Ba people had just appeared.
Only half a year has passed, and again, an even more mysterious and powerful eye of the gods has been born in the Ba tribe.
This eye is really like what the Ba people say, no matter where you are in the valley, you always feel like the gods are looking at you from the sky.
As a result, this sense of awe became stronger.
After kneeling at the entrance of the valley to see the God's Eye, a group of people arrived at the planned river beach to station. After visiting the great witch and Muba Amu, several clan leaders and leaders went up the mountain to worship under the leadership of the great witch.
So the mother goddess.
Facing the rebuilt winding and winding mountain road, all the clan leaders and leaders were amazed. When they saw the newly built temple of the late mother on the mountainside, they lost control of their emotions. They knelt in front of the temple and fell to the ground in front of the statue.
He knelt down and refused to get up.
Every time I come here, great changes will always happen to the Ba people.
The emergence of the Temple of the Ancient Mother and the Eye of the Gods has raised the prestige of the Ba people to an unattainable level.
Ordinary tribes don't even have a witch.
But the Ba people already have temples dedicated to the gods.
According to the explanation of the Ba people, on the day the temple was built, the great shaman felt the existence of the eye of the god.
What does this mean? It means that the Ba people’s practices have been recognized by the gods, and the gods have given this temple powerful spiritual power.
"Dong~"
When a group of clan leaders had finished kneeling and followed the shaman to their feet, they turned their heads when they heard a noise and saw Xu Chen throwing something into the pool with a pious face.
"Yeah, I forgot to give you a gift today!"
The leading mother suddenly woke up. She blushed and took out a small piece of turquoise from her pocket. She walked to the pool and threw it in. Then she returned to the statue and bowed her head respectfully to the ground again before standing up.
stand up.
At this time, a few scattered pieces of colorful gems and gold could be seen in the crystal clear pool. Under the refraction of the setting sun slanting through the cliff, they looked extremely clear and dazzling.
"A gift, Moxie Gaga?"
A white-haired clan leader grabbed Muba's arm and asked excitedly.
Mother Ba quickly explained a few words in a low voice.
"Sigh!"
After hearing this, a group of clan leaders suddenly understood. Some touched their bodies, and some turned around to ask the clan members who were accompanying them. However, no one brought gold, silver, jewelry and other rare items. Therefore, some people were anxious and wanted to go down the mountain to get them, but they were all stopped by Xu Chen.
Already.
"Everyone, it's too late today. It will be dark when we go down the mountain. Tomorrow, wait until all the tribes participating in the meeting have arrived. It won't be too late for everyone to go up the mountain together before giving gifts. God is fair and just, and protects all the people who fear Him and gives gifts.
It’s just to express our piety and admiration, it doesn’t mean anything, you don’t need to deliberately give gifts!”
It's okay if Xu Chen doesn't explain, but if he explains, it will make a group of people have more ideas.
It doesn't matter if you say it's a gift or not, why would you secretly throw the treasure in there?
Why did the god come to the Ba tribe instead of going to other tribes?
It’s not because the Ba people give gifts.
Look at the scepter in the hand of the Ba shaman. It is exquisite and luxurious, covered with gold and gems of various colors.
Even the horns and dragon-tooth scimitars are made so luxuriously, which shows that God still likes these sparkling treasures.
Besides, although gold and gems are rare, they can neither be eaten nor worn, so they are just beautiful. There is no use in collecting them in daily life. If you give them to the gods, you can get protection, so why not do it.
So when a group of clan chiefs and leaders went down the mountain, they secretly decided that they would not only give away gold and gems when they went up the mountain tomorrow, but also a lot of them. It would be best to throw all the gems they brought this time into the pool, so that maybe God would be more protective.
his own tribe.
Xu Chen walked at the end, watching a group of old women dancing and gesticulating to exchange ideas on where to pick up more treasures after returning. The old god seemed to be a safe group, but he was still very proud of himself.
It is indeed the easiest to make money in the name of God and with the power of faith.
These gold and gemstones are indeed worth nothing now, but they are rare and valuable, and one day they will be valuable.
What's more, in this age without entertainment, counting treasures is also a rare happy time. Holding a few gold gems in your arms at night will make your dreams feel sweet.
The Witch Lords Conference is not only a hunting competition, but also a grand trading gathering.
This time the Gonghuo Tribe came as a group and brought a lot of things.
The most common items among primitive tribes are animal skins, horns, bones, teeth, and claws, as well as some rare and exquisite bird feathers and various colorful rare gems.
These things no longer mean much to Xu Chen, but most of them are the batch of pottery he brought back to repay the Spring Mother's Day loan.
He didn't need to worry about handling these matters personally. Ye Hui took a group of children and took the credit record book left last time to count the records. After paying the account, he canceled it and returned the signed credit contract to the other tribe. If there was not enough, he registered
Good data, I’ll save it for my next payment.
The effect of the last credit purchase has come out this time.
A tribe named Jia brought him the long-awaited lead ore.
And there is not only the most common galena, but also cerusite, hematite, magnetite, lapis lazuli and many other kinds of ores.
Iron ore is of little significance to Xu Chen now, and the grade of these iron ores is extremely low. At first glance, they are picked up by savages on the roadside or dug superficially, and are mainly used as pigments.
Hematite is red, and its main component is iron tetroxide. When used as a red pigment, it is more stable than cinnabar. Many primitive tribes used hematite to paint the red rock paintings in caves.
Magnetite is magnet. It is also very common. It turns black in color. When it continues to oxidize and loses its magnetism, it will turn into red hematite. Therefore, iron ores are usually mixed together. There is rarely a single type of iron ore.
exist.
Just like copper ore, bornite, chalcocite, azurite, malachite, raw copper ore, etc., many copper ores are sandwiched together and become mixed due to changes in time and environment.
There are treasures and garbage. If you want to obtain a single type of copper ore with a relatively high grade, you need large-scale mining and selection.
Xu Chen was naturally most interested in lead ore, but unfortunately, the Jia tribe didn't bring much this time. Galena was in seven or eight pieces, large and small, weighing about five or six kilograms, and white lead ore was about the same, scattered here and there.
It adds up to less than ten kilograms in bulk.
Xu Chen didn't need to ask too much about the use of lead ore. It must be used as a pigment, either to put makeup on the face or body, to draw things on the rock walls, or to dye spears and weapons, etc. Anyway, hunters from all tribes like to use it.
By making yourself colorful, you can not only make yourself beautiful, but also scare your enemies and similar people.
When hanging out, it’s all about seeing who has more tattoos.
Those who hang out in the world must all be tattooed guys.
Soon the origins of these two ores were roughly clarified, but he was slightly regretful because these ores did not come from the Jia tribe's territory, but from tribes further away.
To the southwest of the Jia tribe, there is a tribe called Kugou. Their strength is unknown, but this Kugou tribe is very strange. They are composed of five ethnic groups who like different colors. Some like to paint themselves white, and some like to paint themselves white.
Painted in yellow, and some in black, red and cyan.
Therefore, each of these five tribes has its own name, which are called Ha Dog, Climbing Dog, Top Dog, Riding Dog, and Mad Dog.
Xu Chen didn't speak for a long time after listening.
What a great alliance of dogs, golden, green, red, white and black, with all five elements gathered together. They are preparing to conquer the universe as dogs.
The funniest thing is that the name of the special tribal alliance is actually called Kugou. What do you want Baidu and Tencent to say?
Of course, this is purely a coincidence. The pronunciation of these primitive people cannot be the same as Mandarin Chinese, so these are the Chinese characters that Xu Chen transliterated based on the descriptions of the Jia people.
In order to find out the exact location and strength of the Kugou Alliance, Xu Chen carefully questioned the Jia people for a long time, and then found that he had indeed made a mistake.
This Kugou is not a Bikou dog. When the Jia people stretched out five fingers and said Kuha Kuha loudly to him repeatedly, he realized that Ku should mean five, and dog is the name of a kind of devil.
It has the face of a bird and the body of a bird, with horns on its head. It likes to eat people, so the locals call it a dog.
"Dog ha, scary quack!"
The captive translators from the Jia Clan and Gonghuo Clan made grimaces by drawing pictures beside them, feeling frightened and excited. Finally, Xu Chen slowly woke up. Perhaps, the dogs they were talking about should be ghosts, and the Kugou Clan’s
The correct name may be Wugui Clan, Kugou, which is just the local dialect of Wugui.
Then the names of the remaining five tribes may be called Heigui (harsh dog), Baigui (climbing dog), Qinggui (top dog), Red ghost (riding dog) and Huanggui (mad dog).
Well, that must be the case, and it must not be wrong.
Xu Chen was still very confident in his judgment.
After all, it has been three years since we traveled back in time. Although language communication has become more and more troublesome as more and more tribes are contacted, generally speaking, the tribes in this area where the Ba people live have great differences in terms of race, living habits, and language.
Above, they all still have certain similarities.
So far, a completely different race has not been discovered.
In other words, the primitive tribes in this area should have originally originated from very similar ethnic groups, or even the same ancient race.
Although there are slight differences in appearance between the Uzbek Nationality Alliance and the Gonghuo Nationality Alliance, this difference does not have obvious racial differences. At most, it is a genetic difference in family blood.
Just like Cantonese and Shaanxi people, they are not from the same place at first glance, and the taste of speaking Chinese is completely different. They can't understand each other, but it's not that they can't communicate at all, it's just uncomfortable.
