After a night's rest in the Hongyun tribe, with the gods under their noses, Xie Zihao didn't dare to make any small moves. It can be said that he slept very soundly.
Because he was in the dream world, his cultivation would not grow into reality and he could only accumulate experience, so he just separated out a consciousness clone to conduct research on cultivation, while his main consciousness entered a sleep state.
In this regard, you can refer to the art of multiple shadow clones in the comics, but this kind of clone can only appear in his own conscious world, and cannot yet form a clone in the real world.
"Of course it's not impossible. If you use the power of illusion and mirror image, you can use mental projection to create a clone for me in reality, but it is only a temporary existence. Not only will it cost a lot to create, but also to maintain it.
Existence also requires a lot of incense and faith!”
Therefore, when it was not necessary, he did not have the wasteful idea of creating a real-life clone to play with.
Compared with Xie Zihao's leisurely attitude, the Hongyun tribe was busy and excited throughout the night. Because of the confusing soup that Xie Zihao had given him before, tribal chief Fei Yu and priest Heitu all believed in the plan of Lian Tang Kang Ying.
That night, he gathered together several eloquent warriors in the tribe and came to the holy land to discuss this important matter in front of the gods they believed in.
In fact, the Hongyun tribe only has more than 3,000 people, and the two people who really hold the power are Kurotsuchi and Feiyu.
The former has a high position and holds the power of tribal beliefs. Although the latter is young, as the first warrior of the tribe and the son of the previous chief, his own prestige is also very high. With their approval, the matter will basically be settled. These other people may be in
There is some prestige in the tribe, but they can't compete with these two people joining forces.
Moreover, aboriginal tribes like the Hongyun Tribe may have backward civilization, but their structure is also very simple. In many cases, there are not so many bullshit things about fighting for power. As long as everyone present is taken care of, then the matter is basically a done deal.
Especially when Kurotsuchi revealed in front of everyone that the Red Cloud God had sent down the oracle, no one had any objection at all.
Hongyun God didn't say much, and there was only an affirmative reply in the oracle.
But that's enough.
"Since the great gods have decided, then I have no objection!"
"That's right, even Hongyun God is optimistic about our plan, so the chance of success will definitely be greater..."
"I fully agree with this plan..."
After all the warriors of the tribe voted in favor, Kurotsuchi nodded and said to Feiyu:
"You are the chief. You will personally take charge of the plan this time. I will help you watch from behind."
Feiyu also solemnly paid a tribal tribute to his uncle Black Earth, who was both father and teacher, and said:
"Priest, please rest assured that Feiyu will definitely complete this great mission, defeat those white devils, and become the strongest chief of the people of God!"
Kurotsuchi nodded and said:
"We will start offering sacrifices before the sun sets tomorrow, so that the great Red Cloud God can bless the warriors of our tribe and bring good luck to the next expedition!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was even more excited.
Of course, according to the plan and arrangement that Heitu and the others heard from Xie Zihao, the most important thing at the moment is to get in touch with the Tang people, and this also requires Xie Zihao as a guide.
So early the next morning, Heitu led people to find the tent where Xie Zihao lived.
Although the Hongyun tribe has settled in this area for hundreds of years, they still live in tent-like houses made of wood and animal skins. In addition to the reason why some tribesmen continue to herd and hunt, it is also because even if the tribes live together, they often
They will face various dangerous attacks, so they habitually choose this simple and detachable residence instead of building stone houses like the indigenous peoples of Central and South America.
This is probably part of the reason why the aboriginal civilizations in North America are not as developed as Central and South America.
Xie Zihao was not used to living there. The tent used for entertaining guests was actually very clean. The fur had been specially treated and dried and there was no smell. The tent was set up directly on a flat stone and a piece of animal skin was spread on the ground.
You are ready to move in.
After Kuitu explained his intention, Xie Zihao nodded slightly and said:
"Of course it's my duty to contact you. In fact, the current situation of the Tang people in this land is not much better than yours. But please allow me to ask a question. Today, Black Earth Sacrifice, you will preside over the sacrifice to Hongyun God, right?
Are you going to use those three captives for a blood sacrifice?"
Kurotsuchi’s natural answer:
"That's right, using those invading white devils as sacrifices can help the great gods to grant more blessings!"
Xie Zihao frowned when he heard this and said:
"Priest of Black Earth, do you know what impact blood sacrifice will have on the gods?"
Kurotsuchi was somewhat silent after hearing his question. As a tribe that has believed in worshiping gods for hundreds of years, their Hongyun tribe naturally knew some unknown situations.
Among them are some contents that have been passed down orally by priests throughout the ages, such as performing blood sacrifices with humans. Although the gods who accept the blood sacrifices will greatly increase their power for a short time and give more powerful power in return to the believers, the gods will also become vaguely angry.
He is irritable and bad-tempered. In severe cases, if he performs too many blood sacrifices, even the gods will go crazy.
Among the aboriginal tribes, it seems that there are many gods who have died due to blood sacrifices in the past two hundred years. No one has said it clearly, but they know that there must be some problems here.
Kurotsuchi sighed helplessly:
"Blood sacrifice seems to bring some bad changes to the gods, but we tribes of God's people actually have nothing to do. If we don't use blood sacrifice, we won't have the strength to resist the invaders."
It is not that Indian priests have always discovered this problem, but in the past two hundred years, as the population of each tribe has become smaller and smaller, the faith provided to the gods has also become less, and the power given by the gods has naturally weakened.
In a vicious cycle.
Frequent blood sacrifices now may be able to last for a few more decades, otherwise perhaps within a dozen years, the entire continent's people of God will be exterminated.
So they were just drinking poison to quench their thirst.
After thinking about it, Xie Zihao said to Heitu:
"I have a way to try here. It may be able to alleviate the sequelae of your blood sacrifice!"
"Is there really a way?"
Heitu's eyes widened with excitement when he heard this. Gods are the cornerstone of the existence of Indian tribes. If the gods that each tribe believes in die, then the tribe will also die. Therefore, they have called themselves the people of God since ancient times, not the so-called Indians.
people.
Their Hongyun tribe is relatively good, because the spirit itself is relatively pure and does not have a lot of thinking. In fact, it is a bit simple and a bit stupid, so it is not greatly affected by the blood sacrifice. It is said that many summers and winters have passed since he became a priest. The gods of tribes known for their hunting and fighting skills have undergone obvious mutations.
If this Tang priest from afar can really bring a solution to this problem and restore the gods to their normal state, at least it will not make the situation worse.
Xie Zihao nodded and said:
"Of course, in our place, worshiping gods has a history of more than thousands of years, and we still have some experience in this aspect..."
As he spoke, he explained to Kurotsuchi in detail the methods of purifying the altar, blessing incense, purifying heaven and earth, and using incense and candles to worship, and using cooked fruits and melons instead of traditional sacrifices.
This is not a secret at all in his world, it is all public content on the Internet, but in this world, especially among the aboriginal tribes of the New World with little information, there is a lack of this advanced experience from the feudal superstition of the Eastern world!
