472: High Priest, Jimo [Ask a leave]

"What do you see?" Gong Xichou thought to her when he saw her, "If you don't understand, brother can tell you now."

The genealogy is the inheritance of the entire Gongxi clan.

It will be handed over to Gongxilai in the future.

Gongxi came and asked, "Why is there a Jimo family?"

As a matriarchal clan, both men and women will naturally follow Gongxi clan. However, there is also Jimo clan in the genealogy, which means that different surnames can also be listed in the genealogy. It is strange that there is no third surname. Could it be that Gongxi clan has always been married to Jimo clan?

"Jimo? Oh, you said the high priest."

"High Priest?"

Gong Xiqiu said: "Our clan believes in gods. Every year, there are other important festivals, the whole clan gathering will be held, usually hosted by the high priest. Each generation will select a heir of the high priest to inherit 'Jimo'."

He continued, "I heard that the high priest is the only one who can communicate with gods, but some gods are talking about it..."

This character has a special status in the Gongxi tribe. He listens to oracles and conveys the tribe. Things within the tribe are generally decided by the clan leader and the high priest. If the two have different opinions, the respected clan elder will come forward to vote to ensure operation.

The Gongxi people love singing and dancing.

It is also because the high priest said that gods like singing and dancing the most.

Speaking of this-

Gong Xichou also reminded his elder sister: "If you have children in the future, remember to try it at the altar of the clan center. Every high priest was selected by the gods. Alas, Gong Xi tribe was exterminated, and it may have something to do with the high priest..."

He is still very superstitious in this regard.

"Is it the high priest's rebel clan?"

Gong Xichou shook his head: "This is not the case."

The high priest is going to become a traitor, and the whole clan is in a mess.

only--

"... My generation of high priest candidates were exterminated before they appeared. The previous generation, the one around my mother, was reported to have passed away. The previous generation seemed to be when he went out to do business, and his name on the genealogy was suddenly crossed out..."

"Most of the tribe believe he died unexpectedly."

"But there are voices saying that he gave up his faith."

The high priest must be the most devout person in the clan to God.

Borrow the special abilities granted by the gods to protect the tribe. Once you abandon your faith, your name will naturally be cut off.

However, this example has not been seen in the two hundred years of hidden history of the Gongxi tribe, and this speculation is untenable.

"The high priest is crucial to our clan. Many years ago, there was a tribe who went out and brought death disasters to the clan. You may have heard of the tragedy of the Wu Kingdom, which was caused by that guy... That time he relied on oracles to warn him. Our generation is not so lucky."

The new high priest candidate has not been released, and those who are already adults have been in a row and have been accidental. The senior high priest who has long retired has no choice but to give up his retirement career and preside over important occasions such as the birth date of the gods. After all, when he is old, he is unable to do anything.

For example, when listening to the oracle, it is not accurate at the right time.

Gong Xiqiu dreamed of replacing it when he was very young.

Because the dance posture of the high priest with white hair and beard is really ugly.

If he goes, he will definitely be the most beautiful boy in the clan!

The new favorite of the gods!

Gongxi came to pay attention to other places.

"Isn't this brother's biological father?"

It actually replaced it with "this around my mother".

Gong Xichou explained: "Well... In order to avoid the neonatal problems caused by too close blood relationships among the tribe, some adult women can choose intermarriage within the tribe, or they can choose to leave the tribe and go outside to find a man whom they like."

"Bring it back?" Gongxi asked.

"No, bring the child back after giving birth. It's just that men from foreign races are mostly people with bad intentions."

Gongxi: "..."

She seemed to know why so many tribesmen had no spouse names next to her, and they all worked like this.

Gong Xichou said: "My brother should be the child of the high priest and his mother. But something happened to him, and his mother went out to find someone with the encouragement of his uncle to have me. My mother's husband may not be my biological father."

Half-father is quite common in the clan.

Gongxi: "..."

"Oh, if the first two high priests were there, perhaps our clan could not be immune from extermination and could also reduce casualties." Gong Xiqiong's eyes were a little sad, "The clan was attacked by a strong enemy, and the old priest was old, and the clan could not use the most methods used to defend the enemy in the clan, so that the clan members did not escape in time, and there were traitors, so the whole clan died..."

Gongxi came to comfort him: "Everything is over."

"Yes, it's all over..."

Gong Xiqiu is not a person who likes to indulge in the past. He has to look forward and wait until the enemy is killed before talking about anything else.

And this-

It's almost done.

Gongxiqiu hopes that Gongxi will have more children when he comes to the west. As long as one of them can be appointed by the gods as the heir of the high priest, the safety of the clan land will be enough to protect itself.

However, this matter depends too much on luck. The choice of a person not only depends on the preferences of the gods, but also tests the nature of the chosen person.

Only a sincere, pious and firm faith can truly impress the God of serving and obtain its protection.

If your mind is not strong...

Even the Gongxi clan...

There was also a new generation of high priests who could not wait for decades.

"It's getting late. Let's go to bed first. I'll pack my bags tomorrow. I'll send my confidant to take you to the clan's land."
