Chapter 41: Feast(1/2)
At night.
The silver moon and the blood moon rose into the sky at the same time, spreading their light across the boundless land.
These two moons, representing luck and disaster, have been silently accompanying the world for hundreds of millions of years.
He left countless legends about falling in love and killing each other.
The water-like moonlight also shines on the mountain villages in the valley.
In the large square inside the village wall, piles of bonfires were being set up, and the raging firelight illuminated all directions.
It also reflects the black and red faces!
The bonfire in the middle was the largest, with a skinned bull standing on top.
Withstanding the intense heat of the flames.
The two tough mountain giants cooperated with each other and constantly turned the grill to ensure that the beef was heated evenly.
The air is filled with the thick smell of firewood and barbecue.
More than 700 people from the mountain tribe gathered here, with endless laughter and laughter.
For these giants, such a feast is rare.
Usually, one is only held during the New Year festival and when the caravan arrives.
Gao Jing had lived in the village for a while before, and this was his first time to participate.
And this tribal feast was held just for him!
"People from the mountains..."
The old wizard Shan Yan's voice rang out in the square, reaching everyone's ears very clearly.
The mountain giants immediately fell silent.
Everyone looked at the old wizard who came to the big bonfire with respectful eyes.
The leader of the tribe!
The old wizard held a wooden staff and looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Tonight's clan meeting, we welcome the return of a friend."
Shan Guo'er, who was standing next to him, raised his arms and held up Gao Jing who was standing on his palms!
In fact, Gao Jing refused such a public "display".
Isn't it shameful?
However, this is part of the tribal banquet ceremony, so who makes him a "villain" again!
Gazes from all around focused on Gao Jing.
Some are curious, some are surprised, and some are confused.
The existence of Gao Jing is not a secret to the mountain tribes.
Almost all the villagers knew that Shan Hu had picked up an "ancient remnant" while hunting outside.
Many people saw Shan Guoer carrying him around the village.
It's just that everyone doesn't know why the old wizard would hold a clan meeting so solemnly.
Welcome back Gao Jing!
"The name of our friend is Gao Jing. He is an ancient remnant from the abyss."
The old wizard continued: "I want to tell everyone that Gao Jing has brought the most precious salt to our tribe."
As he spoke, he raised the clay pot he was holding in his left hand: "A whole jar of the best salt!"
"Uha!"
The mountain giants immediately let out earth-shattering cheers.
Many people beat their chests with their fists, their bronze faces showing excitement and joy.
For all the wilderness tribes living in the wilderness, salt is the most important life substance.
If there is no supplement of salt for a long time, the strongest warrior will turn into a weak and weak shrimp.
In order to exchange for salt stones from the caravans, tribal warriors need to take great risks to hunt ferocious wild beasts.
So although Gao Jing seems so weak, he brings precious salt to the mountain tribes.
That’s friends of the tribe!
To their friends, giants never hesitate to show their sincerity.
Everyone looked at Gao Jing with a bit more sincere gratitude and friendliness.
Gao Jing smiled.
But at this time, he was very confused and a little depressed.
Because the copper anchor has no reaction.
The gratitude of the mountain giants to him did not bring any power of faith to the copper anchor!
This is a bit strange.
Is it because Bronze Anchor cannot absorb the power of faith in the big world? Or is it because he is not an aborigine?
Gao Jing was puzzled.
I feel like I lost 100 million!
He couldn't help but touch the copper anchor hanging close to his chest.
The old wizard put down the clay pot, waved his wooden staff and said, "Start celebrating, my people!"
"Uha!"
The cheers were accompanied by the sound of "dong dong dong" war drums!
Several old giants sat cross-legged on the ground, beating the big animal skin drum in front of them rhythmically with their big, thin hands.
Groups of strong giant warriors came forward and danced around the bonfire.
They stepped on the fierce drums and sang ancient songs, pushing the atmosphere in the square to a climax.
Gao Jing and Shan Guoer sat beside the old wizard together, enjoying the singing and dancing of the giants.
Their dance is full of primitive charm, with strong and powerful movements, staring, sticking out tongues, and flapping their limbs, showing the warriors' strong physique, fearlessness and bravery in battle.
In Gao Jing's eyes, these giants are like moving mountains, towering and indestructible!
The songs they sang were ancient and powerful, as if they came from a long time ago in the wilderness.
Gao Jing could barely understand the gist of the lyrics.
The giants used their songs to remember the ancestors of the wilderness humans who stole fire and hunted, and praised their bravery.
At the same time, pray for the protection of the ancestors!
Unknowingly, Gao Jing was affected by the scene and singing in front of him.
He clapped his hands and stamped his feet in time with the beat of the war drum, feeling an indescribable feeling growing in his heart.
Let the blood gradually boil!
It wasn't until a giant village woman in linen clothes approached that Gao Jing came back to his senses.
The village woman held a huge pottery basin in both hands and placed it respectfully in front of the old wizard.
The pottery pot contained a sauce made of something unknown, giving off a strong pickling smell.
The old wizard reached into the pottery pot beside him, grabbed a large handful of coarse salt and sprinkled it into the pottery pot.
The giant village woman carefully picked up the pottery basin and brought it to the tribal warrior in charge of the barbecue.
The tribal warrior stirred it a few times with a bristle wooden brush, and then evenly applied the salted sauce on the cow.
The beef grilled over charcoal fire becomes even more tempting!
After a while, another giant warrior used a long bone dagger to cut off pieces of fragrant barbecue.
The fattest part was first given to the old wizard and Gao Jing.
But the old wizard didn't eat his own, but handed it to Shan Guo'er.
He rubbed the little girl's head and said lovingly: "You can eat first."
"Um."
Shan Guoer, who was already salivating, reached out to grab the barbecue and couldn't wait to put it into his mouth.
Hiss! Hot mouth.jpg!
“It’s delicious!”
Seeing the way she was devouring her food, Gao Jing couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
He pulled out the dagger he carried with him and cut off a piece of roast meat placed in front of him.
