Fortunately, our luck was not that bad. Although we encountered some troubles in the river valley during the past two nights, we all managed to get there safely.
"Yes, witch master, this is the witch cave of the Luodong people!" Bai He said.
He had followed Qiu Yuan here several times and was already familiar with the place.
He learned archery and martial arts from Qiu Yuan, and his skills were pretty good.
At this moment, he said to the Man Cave in the distance, which was blocked by the mountains.
Luotong Manwu is a large Wudong with a population of several thousand. Even though it is separated by a valley, you can still clearly see that not only bamboo buildings are built on the opposite mountain, but there are even tile houses.
"I heard that Luoman was originally just a small witch cave. Later, the old witch master came here and taught them how to farm and helped them do business with the Han people.
The Luodong Barbarian Witch gradually prospered and is now a famous Wudong in the mountains!"
Baihe talks a lot.
He was much better than the taciturn Qiu Shan who followed him.
Tao Xiaowu just asked a question, and Bai He could answer so much.
However, based on what he saw before him, the situation of the Luotong Barbarian Witch became clearer and clearer.
However, Bai He didn't really understand what Tao Xiaowu wanted to say.
Until Qiu Shan opened his mouth and said quietly: "The Wudong of the Luo Man people is far away from the river valley!"
Among these 100,000-crossing mountains, only this huge river valley passage is considered safe at night.
Once you leave the river valley and enter the mountains, it will be dangerous!
After experiencing so many nights, the group already knew this.
At this time, you can see that the Mantong of Luotong Manwu is not too far away from the river valley, but it has already left the river valley!
Bai He had not thought of such a situation at first, but was suddenly pointed out by Qiu Shan, and his face suddenly changed slightly: "Yes, yes, it was so dangerous for us just to spend a night in the mountains.
But I don’t know how these barbarian witches came here after so many years..."
The river valley is huge and was carved out by flash floods over countless years.
There are quite a lot of fertile fields in it.
However, no barbarian shaman's witch cave was built in it. Why is this?
When Tao Xiaowu saw that Bai He and others understood, their expressions changed, and he chuckled and said: "Actually, you don't need to think too much, these barbarian witches have been living in the hundreds of thousands of Hengduan Mountains since ancient times, so they naturally have a way
Seek good luck and avoid bad luck.
We’d better hurry up and hurry up, and we’ll know it when we get to the Luotong people’s Wudong!”
Only then did Bai He and the others relax, and they all responded.
That's it, Wangshan is running to death!
Tao Xiaowu and others were only separated by a valley from the Luotong Barbarian Witch, so they could see clearly. The straight-line distance was only a few miles.
However, it took half a day to walk all the way around.
It wasn't until the sun was setting in the west that we arrived at the Luotong Barbarian Witch.
Looking from a distance, the sun shines slantingly, casting a huge shadow that has enveloped the entire Mandong.
It seems like it's getting dark an hour or two earlier...
It gets dark early in the mountains, that’s all!
However, what really caught Tao Xiaowu's attention was not what these mortals could see with their naked eyes.
Because Tao Xiaowu could feel that the entire mountain where Luodong Manwu Wudong was located seemed to be shrouded in various powers.
When Tao Xiaowu looked over, he could see that there seemed to be a steaming cloud rising above Man Cave, which was invisible to the naked eye.
However, Tao Xiaowu could see clearly that the aura seemed to condense into a huge spider, entrenched above the entire tribe with its fangs and claws.
The surrounding clouds were like a large web woven by spiders, covering the entire mountain.
"This is the witch spirit of the Luotong barbarian witches. It turns out that these barbarian witches rely on the witch spirits to survive in this dangerous mountain.
But the Luotong Barbarian Witches are indeed the majority, and the witch spirits are a hundred times more powerful than the Wudong Witch Spirit I dealt with last time!"
When Tao Xiaowu saw it, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened.
This is probably the most powerful god that Tao Xiaowu has ever seen, except for the two Hengting ghost uncles.
That's right, in Tao Xiaowu's view, these are no longer witch spirits, at least they are witch gods!
Even Tao Xiaowu couldn't help but feel a great pressure.
Obviously, the shaman spirit of this Luotong Barbarian Witch seems to be much more powerful than Tao Xiaowu!
"Interesting, interesting... This one hundred thousand cross-cutting mountain seems to be getting more and more interesting..."
The Luotong Manwu had a lot of exchanges with the outside world and had business contacts, so they built the roads outside Mandong quite well.
The group had just gone up the mountain and reported their origins before arriving at Man Cave, when they heard a sound behind them.
But I heard the noise and cheerful singing from behind.
A group of Romans dressed as hunters returned happily.
I saw that they were each carrying prey on their backs, including deer, pheasants, rabbits, etc.
The most eye-catching thing is a few people carrying a tiger tied to a log.
The tiger was bleeding profusely and was seriously injured, but it seemed that he was not dead yet, with blood flowing all the way.
The barbarian wizard guarding the gate was very happy to see them and greeted the hunters, but he did not bother to greet Tao Xiaowu and the others.
Fortunately, the notification had already been made, and a moment later, Luo Man came out with the elders, leaders and others in Man Cave to greet him.
When we first met, I gave Tao Xiaowu a big hug with a very warm attitude.
After all, although Wucheng was kind to them at the beginning and taught them how to farm and do business in the mountains, what kind of kindness could last a lifetime?
Just as he was thinking this, Luo Man already said happily: "The witch spirit has informed me that a distinguished guest is coming!
Great Wu Tao, you came just in time.
We are just waiting for you to arrive before we start the Witch Fire Festival!
We have prepared the best wine and food, and also asked people to go out and shoot a tiger as a sacrifice to the witch spirit.
When the time comes, the Witch Spirit will definitely meet you in person!"
Bai He leaned into Tao Xiaowu's ear and said: "The barbarian witch people don't bury their dead in Wudong, but they are all cremated. This is called a witch fire sacrifice!
For barbarian witches, this is not a sad thing, but something worthy of celebration and joy.
Because the souls of the dead will go to the land of witch spirits and meet their dead ancestors from past generations!"
Tao Xiaowu nodded slightly after hearing this, and his thoughts changed slightly.
You already understand why such customs are formed in this mountain!
The mountains are filled with evil spirits, and demons in the ground come and go.
If the body is buried, I'm afraid it won't take long before the body is transformed.
By then the whole mountain will be full of zombies causing trouble!
This is why the custom of cremation was formed.
However, at the same time, this is also a sacrifice to the witch spirits, which is interesting!
Thinking of the tiger he had just seen killed by the barbaric witch hunter, Tao Xiaowu realized that it was actually used to sacrifice to the witch spirits.
