Original War

Chapter 192 The Land of Fire Seed

The setting sun fell on the other side of the distant mountain, and the light in the forest gradually disappeared.

The surroundings have become a lot darker.

Shao Xuan didn’t pay attention to the passage of time at this moment, or even to see if there were dangers around him.

He has a feeling that it seems to be safe here, there will be no sneak attacks by those dangerous plants, and no fierce predators will come over.

All the attention is in the ground under the palm.

Feeling a little warmth coming from below, following the palm of the hand, along the arm, all the way up, converging into the totem in my mind, the flames on the totem are constantly stimulating.

The evening breeze blew, and the wind carried some factors different from usual.

The surrounding area began to quiet down, the original birds and insects, the roar of the beasts in the jungle, the sound of the stream, etc., all gradually disappeared.

call–

call–

It’s like the sound of flames jumping from the wind.

However, there is no Mars around, and even because the sun sets and night falls, this unrecognizable ruin place has been shrouded in darkness.

Shao Xuan kept staring at his palms on the ground without moving. He felt that under his palms, it was getting warmer and warmer. It seemed that something was spreading underground and was about to break out of the ground.

A blaze of light leaked through the fingers, especially conspicuous in the dark night.

Soon, more fire light appeared from under Shao Xuan’s palm, and from the beginning of the little star fire, it became bigger and bigger, and Shao Xuan’s palms couldn’t cover it.

After the fire light under the palm became larger, it was divided into six branches and gradually spread in six directions. There was no flame, but like magma, it stretched in each direction and extended into the woods. Shao Xuan couldn’t see it. The place.

Withdrawing his hand, standing up, Shao Xuan looked at the six branches extending from the same point.

Is this the “root” of the Yanjiao tribe that Lao Jiao’s ancestors called? Could it be that the central point where the six branches converge is where the fire was originally located?

Just thinking about it, Shao Xuan suddenly felt something was wrong, and he seemed to have fallen into such an uncontrollable but special state.

Looking at the feet, the ground that was supposed to be full of flowers and soil has turned into a block of stones. The size and placement of this kind of stones are very familiar, as if they were standing in the fire pond of the Yanjiao tribe.

Firepit? !

Shao Xuan raised his eyes to look elsewhere.

The original ruins are gone. Instead, there are unclear images, densely packed people standing not far away, and the stone houses behind the crowd that are much higher than the people, just like in the past. Compared to the houses of most tribes, these stone-built houses are larger, taller, and much more magnificent, as painted on the murals in the caves near the foot of the mountain.There are also some carved stone statues, humans and beasts, and some of them look like soldiers slaying fierce beasts.

In a place close to each other, there were some people standing, the arrangement was similar to what Shao Xuan saw in the tribe’s sacrifice. There were also warriors who served as sacrificial dances, as well as those erected pillars and sacrifices. The difference was that they were closer There were six people standing in the firepit. Shao Xuan couldn’t see their specific appearances, but could only see fuzzy figures. Their decorations are more “ornate” than the warriors of sacrificial dances, and the decorations hanging on their heads are more complicated.

A figure stepped into the firepit and walked towards Shao Xuan.

Shao Xuan knew that this was not really for himself, the purpose of this person should be the fire that burned where he was. And this person should be a certain witch from the Yanjiao tribe.

These are all characters who can be called “ancestors.” If people from the tribe on the other side of the river see such a scene, they probably have to kneel again?

Shao Xuan stood there, quietly watching the figures around him.

The witch walked to the fire and didn’t know what he put down, then backed out, exited the firepit, stood by the firepit and began to raise his arms, he should be singing.

The surroundings seem to be brighter.

Shao Xuan looked around his body, the rapidly rising flame enveloped him, and the surrounding area was illuminated brighter because of the sudden flame, and the people standing not far away were also illuminated, but Shao Xuan still watched It is not clear, only a general figure can be seen, men and women, old, small, and some hounds that are probably engraved on the side.

Everyone is facing the direction of the fire, no matter where Shao Xuan looks, even if he can’t see the expressions of those figures, he can still feel that they are all looking here.

Lift your foot and walk out of the center, out of the area covered by the fire.

Shao Xuan was like a bystander, walking in the crowd, looking at the figures around him.

They did not change because of Shao Xuan’s walking, because the two existed at different points in time, and these are also the reappearance of the past, just like when Shao Xuan followed the advance team into the green space, he saw the green thief walking at night. The scene is average.

The people standing around knelt down and bowed down in the direction of the fire pit.

The surroundings were cast a layer of fire.

Looking back, Shao Xuan looked in the direction of the fire pond. The flames that rolled over were higher than what he saw when he participated in the sacrifice of the Yanjiao tribe. The flames were also much violent. The surrounding sky seemed to be burnt, and all were stained. It’s flaming, very heroic.

Huotang Sanyan, this is only the first flame, and it has reached such a level. If it is the third flame, what will happen?

Back in the Yanjiao tribe, when I saw the flames of the fire for the first time, I still felt incredible and magnificent, but now, seeing the scene in front of me, I know what the real fire of fire is, just like a certain animal skin scroll. The picture that I have drawn on this is the scene of the glorious period.

Just when Shao Xuan stood by the fire pond in the homeland of the Yanjiao tribe, looking at the images that had passed by nearly a thousand years, on the other side of the river far away from the middle.

At this time, not many people in the Yanjiao tribe will go out. The area near the foot of the mountain is already dark, and the Yeyans are also flying around and active, staring at each house, waiting for someone to come out, and then rushing up. Attack it.

The higher the mountain, the more the fire, and some soldiers are burning a fire at home, maybe they are getting food, or they are just burning the fire, and then talking around the fire. But these fire lights are really nothing in the dark.

On the top of the mountain, Wu noticed an abnormal movement and didn’t take the crutches. The wind came out of the stone house and headed towards the fire pond.

The soldiers who had been guarding the fire pond originally wanted to inform Wu and the leader of the change in the fire pond, but they didn’t want to. Wu had already arrived.

Looking at the scene in the firepit, Wu seemed stunned, standing there, there was a moment of blankness in his mind.

In the firepit, the fire that was originally only the first ignited seedlings of the bean, is now jumping violently, then suddenly rises, rolls up, and expands to the entire firepit.

This is not the sacrificial period, nor has any ceremonies been held, and the witches did not even do anything. However, the flames in the firepit are burning like the sacrificial ceremonies after the winter.

It burned by itself! Moreover, the tumbling flames are more intense than the flames burned during the annual sacrifices!

“This…this is…” The leader who rushed over after receiving the report was equally stunned when he saw the scene in the firepit.

The words of the leader Ao made Wu react from the blank state just now. He was just over-excited and forgot to react.

“He’s here! He found it! A Xuan, he found Yanjiao’s hometown!”

Wu knelt on the ground and bowed in the direction of the fire pond.

In the hearts of the tribesmen, they have always been witches of superior demeanor. At an age, they knelt on the ground and cried in a mess, but no one present would laugh. They knelt on the ground with Wu.

Although they didn’t quite understand what this meant, they had a faint thought in their hearts that made them extremely excited.

Shao Xuan has been away from the tribe for some time. From the end of the rainy season to now, winter is coming. No one knows whether Shao Xuan can cross the river safely, or what will happen after Enron passes. After all, he is just a young man. It’s just a soldier.

Although everyone has illusions and hopes that Shao Xuan can find something there, everyone feels uneasy. After all, there are too many dangers in the river. There must be more dangers and troubles on the other side of the river, Shao. Can Xuan solve it alone?

And now, the flames in the firepit, coupled with what Wu said just now, told everyone on the top of the mountain that Shao Xuan not only crossed the river safely, but also found the homeland of the tribe!

The elderly people who rushed over were also so excited that they didn’t know what to say.

The people at the foot of the mountain have also noticed the changes on the mountain. The flames that have risen are too obvious, and the surrounding Yeyans, who were flying around arrogantly just now, are now far away, just like during the annual sacrifices. Fear.

Old Ke walked out the door, looked at the firepit on the top of the mountain, and said to Caesar next to him: “That was caused by A Xuan, right?”

Caesar stared at the top of the mountain and looked at Old Ke. There was a noise in his nose, as if responding to Old Ke’s words.

It is not just the obvious changes in the Yanjiao tribe, even on the river side, whether it is in the central or peripheral areas, there are many people who have undergone changes.

Yan Shuo went out today to hunt a small beast on the mountain. After his strength became stronger, although the totem pattern was still faint in many cases, it was much better than before. Sometimes he could hunt some beasts back to his wife and children.

At this time, Yan Shuo’s family was eating barbecue and talking around the fire. When they noticed something, Yan Shuo looked at his arm, and the faint totem pattern appeared on his own, and the color of the pattern was darker than before. , And much clearer.

Without saying much, he just clenched his fists tightly, then smiled at his wife and children, with bright fire reflected in his eyes: “I think what we have been looking forward to is coming soon.”

On the prairie.

Lao Hao lit a fire at home, dealing with some of the herbs dug today. He was busy working on it. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong. He didn’t disturb his sleeping partner. He added some firewood to the fire and hurriedly got up to get a basin of water. , By the light of the fire, looked at the image reflected in the basin.

He saw some lines appearing on his face, the color was not too dark, because the light was too dark, and he couldn’t see clearly, but he knew what it was, which was exactly the same as the lines on his father’s face back then!

That kind of power is real, not the illusory and elusive feeling of the past.It exists in one’s own body, within every piece of flesh and blood. Flowing.

A wide riverside.

Wooden boats several meters high or even more than ten meters are docked on the shore. Compared with the boats of other tribes, these boats are already extremely luxurious.

And not far from these big ships, some tattered boats are densely docked on another shore. Compared with those big ships, these boats look pitiful.

On the shore next to the gathering boat belt, some tourists gathered there. They had to work late every day to get back. Then they all gathered here to set a fire and get some food to eat.

Now they are also laughing and talking. Compared to those who have nowhere to endure hunger every day, they are considered good, even if the days are not much comfortable.

As they were talking, the people around the fire were stunned as if they saw something unbelievable.

There was no talking and laughter. The few people who were eating food with their naked upper bodies were slightly taller than the others. Feeling the abnormal situation around them, they just planned to ask, but they all pointed to themselves and others, and were followed by them one by one. As if people were pinching their necks, “Uh” didn’t say a complete sentence for a long time.

However, when they looked at their naked upper body along the place where everyone was pointing, they were also shocked, their hands trembled, and even the stone rice bowl that was usually very precious who grabbed and fought with them fell off, half a bowl of broth. If it is sprinkled on the ground, everyone will probably regret it, and even lick it on the ground, picking up the fallen meat residue and eating it.

However, no one’s attention is now focused on those meat residues.

“Picture…totem pattern…”

I don’t know who made the sound first, but like a torch, it detonated a barrel of oil.

Totem pattern!

Although these totem patterns did not last long, this night was destined to cause insomnia for some people, and also caused drastic changes in the psychology of some people.

And Shao Xuan, who caused all this without knowing it, stood by the fire pond in the old place of Yanjiao Tribe, watching those scenes disappear, and everything returned to the original state of the ruins, without the tall stone houses, without the stone statues, and without them. The crowd was dense, there were no witches. Everyone from that year was no longer there. The fire pool was not what it used to be, and the six extended branches also disappeared.

Shao Xuan sighed for a long time.

“The glory of the year is no longer!”

The scene was illusory, only he could see it, but when Shao Xuan saw the surrounding grass, his pupils shrank.

In the six pulse-like places that stretched out from the fire, all the flowers and plants that had grown on it had disappeared, leaving only the bare ground.

It seems that it is not all illusory. The six branches of the fire just now have really appeared.

At this time, in the Ten Thousand Stone Tribe, not too far from the forest of the beasts.

“There is an abnormal movement in the forest. Although it is not clear, I have a feeling that there will be the biggest threat to the Wanshi Department!” The Wanshi tribal witch with bone decorations, facing the direction of the forest, his expression is as if he wants to eat people. .

The leader of the Wanshi tribe standing next to the witch looked sullenly in the direction of the mountains and forests, and ordered the people to come over.

“Go and prepare, take the Ten Thousand Stone Beasts into the forest tomorrow!”
