923 Sacrificial Ceremony of Primitive Tribes
When Gu Zheng handed one of the gray and hot plates to Zhexiong's hand, the man who had seen the celebration with Gu Zheng trembled with excitement and asked, "This is pottery?"
He was afraid that his judgment would be wrong, so he carefully tapped the surface of the plate with his fingers.
And when the gray pottery plate made a few crisp sounds, Zhexiong's eyes turned red with excitement and then burst into laughter.
"This is pottery, pottery! We have the Zhe family and pottery."
You must know that the only set of pottery in the Youzhe tribe was exchanged by the old priest at the time for a large price from the messenger of the Youchong clan.
But who would have thought that when they had just arrived in Weishuiyuan and had never even spent the first autumn, their tribe had their own pottery.
Although such pottery was not as exquisite as the pottery he saw made by the Dow, it was enough for the tribes to use in this era when everything was in short supply.
Moreover, with this kind of pottery, they had the confidence to exchange supplies with other tribes, and they would never be called a country bumpkin who wandered out of the mountains.
The excited patriarch wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, raised the pottery plate with a slightly bumpy shape above his head, and announced the exciting news to the tribesmen behind him.
"From today, we have Zhe and Tao!"
"Cheer for our great priest!"
"Ao!"
"Ao!"
"hideous!"
The ocean of cheering tribesmen did not affect Gu Zheng's subsequent work.
Instead, he looked at the pile of pottery that broke during the firing process in the pottery kiln, and shook his head with some distress.
This is the first kiln pottery he has trained, and he is still a little greedy.
This success rate is not as optimistic as he imagined.
However, when he passed on the steps of making pottery to his tribe, with the attempts of everyone, this problem will be solved one day.
So, let’s take a look at the more important acres for the Youzhe family.
Gu Zheng, with his hands behind his back, led the excited tribe members quickly. From a distance, he saw one wooden trough after another storm with adobe bricks stored on the brick yard, as if they were soldiers waiting for inspection, arranged neatly.
When Gu Zheng walked casually to a dry adobe trough and lifted the shaped wooden trough, a square adobe brick stood straight on the yellow soil.
'Bang'
In order to test the strength of this brick, Gu Zheng also used some effort to tap the brick body.
After this earth brick shook off some of the floating soil attached to it, it did not even have any scars left.
It seems that the quality of the acres they made this time is first-class.
Although there is no mixing cement and other solidified materials commonly used by modern people, the batch of adobe bricks they made is enough to protect themselves from the wind and rain.
So, it's time to light up the new tech tree!
This is a milestone in the advancement of human civilization and a standard for consideration when future generations unearth cultural relics.
During the Stone Age, they created the first adobe house in human history.
It's exciting to think about it.
The creation of a house means the construction of a community of houses, and as it expands, a community gathering place will become a village, a town, and ultimately an exciting country.
When Gu Zheng thought of this, he wrote quickly.
A simple house structure diagram composed of a charcoal strip and animal skin was vividly displayed on paper and handed to the hands of a team of craftsmen led by Zheng Qiao.
The rest of the work was left to the tribesmen to explore, and he just wanted to drink the thirst-quenching drink brewed from the cold leaves, like a real priest, to work on more important things.
So what is the more important thing waiting for Gu Zheng to do?
That is the job that a priest should do, sacrifice.
When the Youzhe tribe finally found their new gathering place, in order to thank the Zhe Beast for its protection and help on the migration path, and reasonably, the entire Youzhe tribe had to hold a decent celebration to thank the Zhe Beast for its care.
As a priest who is not doing his job, it is time to start working on this work.
Gu Zheng was devoted to his wholeheartedness when he said that he was doing it.
Even the seven brothers of the Zhe family who had just returned from hunting were brought to him as strong men.
Among them, the living animals used on the day of sacrifice alone require eight, one product in the clan, and the blood of the tribe returning to its original origin, which is already attached to the essence of the strange beasts of the Zhe clan.
All of this requires Gu Zheng to worry about.
Relatedly, he wanted to build an altar up to three feet high in the center of the gathering place.
On a full moon night without wind and waves, he performed his first formal blessing and sacrifice in this world.
And that night came quietly with the nervous and busy cooperation of the tribe members.
...
The night on Weishuiyuan is really cool as water. On this spring day, a full moon hangs high in the sky, and it is indescribable magnificence.
What matches it is the same shocking city wall belonging to the Youzhe family.
In this huge city wall of four meters high, all the tribesmen and strange beasts spontaneously gathered around the altar in the center of the gathering place when the moon just rose, and looked excitedly and devoutly at the person standing alone on the platform... Priest Zheng.
Today's priests are dressed up in great costumes and are quite solemn.
He wore a ferocious beast mask dyed with blood from strange beasts, his hands were scepters, and his skin was covered with beasts, and he looked up at the bright moon.
When the moon rose to the highest sky, his empty and spiritual voice floated brightly above the Youzhe tribe.
"The auspicious time has arrived. The zombie beast is here. The people of the Youzhe clan who have the bravest bloodline, kneel down to worship our most noble ancestors!"
As Gu Zheng finished speaking, the people under the platform knelt all over the place.
They piously and seriously put their foreheads on the cold land, feeling the blessings of the beast they respect most.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng did not stop his sacrificial steps. Instead, he raised his hand with a chic and threw the bone meal in his hand towards the two high-burning torches on the platform.
"Bang!"
