Ancient Wilderness: I Am Getting Bigger Every Day

Hundreds of teenagers and girls stood on the altar with flame totems on their bodies, trembling, waiting for the selection of the gods.

"Enjoy the river god!"

The high priest of the Suiming Kingdom knelt down and guided Liu Dazhuang.

Liu Dazhuang looked at the altar, swallowed his saliva, it was quite fragrant!

Now that it's all delivered, let's eat it.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed it. After all, he had just helped them fight off the tiger dragons and quell the flood, so it was not too much to eat.

The high priest and the gray-haired Suihuang were very excited when they saw Liu Dazhuang's hand reaching for the altar.

"The river god is going to eat sacrifices!"

"When the river god eats the sacrifice, it will rain for us!"

When the young girls on the altar saw the big hand reaching out, they all widened their eyes in horror and trembled.

"Is the river god going to eat us?"

"I don't want to die yet, I want to live."

"However, if the river god eats us, our country and people will be saved..."

These hundreds of people had different expressions, some closed their eyes in fear, some couldn't help weeping softly, and some clenched their teeth and straightened their chests.

He is going to use his own life in exchange for a heavy rain to save the Suiming Kingdom.

Liu Dazhuang didn't pay attention to their expressions, he put his hand on the altar, took a slaughtered sheep, and was going to eat it first to buy a cushion for his stomach.

But this is raw, he wants to light a fire to eat cooked.

Liu Dazhuang held the sheep in one hand, and picked up wood with his feet, lit a fire, and cooked a whole roasted sheep.

It's a pity that when it came out, I forgot to bring some chili and cumin. This roasted whole lamb will lack a little flavor.

The people of the Suiming Kingdom watched Liu Dazhuang pick up a sheep, but instead of swallowing it with his mouth wide open, they walked towards the river, their expressions were full of puzzlement.

"High priest, why didn't the river god eat people, but a sheep instead?"

"High Priest, since the River God wanted to eat the sheep, why didn't he just swallow it all at once?"

The high priest is holding the scepter, this... Ask him, he doesn't know!

It was also the first time he saw the River God with his own eyes.

He only knew that the river god had a human face.

The high priest carefully observed Liu Dazhuang's movements until he saw Liu Dazhuang reaching out to pick up a few pieces of wood.

He understood instantly.

"The river god wants to bake food!"

"Help the river god light the fire!"

The high priest shouted, and the people of the Suiming Kingdom took out two or three pieces of Suiming from their bosoms. This is their national treasure, and everyone will carry it with them at any time.

Thousands of people threw flint wood on the open space and piled it up, but after a while it became a large pile.

Liu Dazhuang noticed the movements of these people and looked at them.

I saw Suihuang walking tremblingly to the pile of flint wood, took out two flint wood from the skirt of his clothes, rubbed each other, and the flint wood burned.

The Suihuang threw the burning flint wood on it, and the pile of flint wood instantly ignited a raging fire.

The high priest looked at Liu Dazhuang with a respectful expression.

"River God, destroyed."

Liu Dazhuang was dumbfounded.

"What kind of wood is this, how can it catch fire so easily?"

He picked up two unburned twigs from the fire,

Liu Dazhuang rubbed the two sticks together, and with a "boom", they immediately burst into flames.

Liu Dazhuang's eyes lit up, "Good stuff!"

No wonder the people of this tribe, whose belief is fire, and having so many tribesmen, have such an absolute advantage.

It was very convenient for them to light a fire.

Now that there was a fire, Liu Dazhuang didn't waste any time and started to roast the mutton, he was already starving.

The high priest's eyes kept falling on Liu Dazhuang. He still didn't understand how the river god, who likes to eat humans raw, changed his taste and began to eat wild animals.

However, it's an old thing!

These children in the tribe can survive!

There are as many beasts as there are, and they can send warriors to hunt them!

The high priest turned and told the people,

"The river god likes to eat cooked ones, so he almost roasted all the offerings!"

The clansmen nodded quickly, and tested the meat by the campfire.

Someone helped to bake the food, so naturally Liu Dazhuang would not be polite.

He ate five sheep, three cows, and one wild boar before he touched his stomach with satisfaction.

Barely full!

Liu Dazhuang looked up at the sky, it was getting dark now, he planned to go to the nearby grassland, lie down and rest for the night, and catch tiger jiao tomorrow.

When he looked back, Liu Dazhuang saw the northern sky, a fiery red glow, like burning clouds.

From the rolling hills, burning to the sky.

Very spectacular.

Liu Dazhuang looked away without looking carefully. He often saw such a shocking beauty in the evening, and regarded it as a wild weather scene.

Sui Huang watched Liu Dazhuang eat with burning eyes.

The food was eaten head by head by Liu Dazhuang, until Liu Dazhuang waved his hand to signal them not to bake any more, patted his stomach to indicate that he was full, and stood up.

Sui Huang's eyes were full of anticipation.

"The river god is full!"

"The river god is going to rain for us!"

The people of the Suiming Kingdom, listening to Suihuang's words, also looked at Liu Dazhuang expectantly, expecting rain in their hearts.

But the time passed by every minute and every second, and the sky didn't change at all, it didn't look like it was raining at all!

Suihuang looked anxiously at the high priest again.

"High priest, what's going on here? The river god has already eaten our sacrifice, why is it still not raining?"

The high priest shook his head helplessly.

"Although the river god said that he ate our sacrifice, he didn't agree with us."

"Presumably our sacrifices are not enough for the River God, so the River God is still not willing to help us extinguish the burning fire.

Suihuang heard the words and looked anxiously at the sky on the north bank. Every minute of delay, the fire grew stronger.

The high priest was somewhat worried about the aged Suihuang, he was afraid that Suihuang would collapse and collapse before the heavy rain came.

"Suihuang, you'd better go back and rest, your body is important, just let me guard here."

"Since the River God has come ashore, he must have the intention to help us."

"But our sincerity is definitely not enough, the river god is testing us."

Suihuang heard the words and fell into thinking, how can he impress the river god?

sincerity?

have!

Sui Huang's old eyes burst out with light, and he thought of a way!

"High priest, I have already thought of a way. "You need to keep the river god here."

Suihuang beckoned to the young and strong Chinese beside him, beckoning them to follow him and drive north back to the tribe.

All the way to the north, the temperature on the road is getting higher and higher. Looking up, the sky is fiery red!

That's flint burning!

The towering Suimu, covering an area of ​​ten thousand hectares, burned like a small sun, filled the sky with flames and smog, and dyed the sky with a layer of crimson red.

The Suiming Kingdom was built around Suimu, with a population of tens of thousands. In the past, it was a holy place that everyone yearned for.

But now, everyone is in danger.

Seeing Suihuang come back, the clansmen greeted him excitedly.

"Emperor Sui, you are back, how is the sacrifice going?"

"Suihuang, did the River God promise to bring rain for our Suiming Kingdom?"

"Suihuang, are we saved?"

The clansman surrounded him layer by layer, asking excitedly.

Now that time is urgent, Sui Huang has no intention of slowly answering the questions of the clansmen, he has more urgent things to do now.

Sui Huang looked at the clansman closest to him and asked.

"Where's Zhu Rong?"

When the clansmen heard the words, they turned around and went straight ahead.

"Zhu Rong, she is standing under the flint tree."

After getting the news he wanted, Suihuang rushed over in a hurry.

Huge flint trees cover the sky and the sun, and the fire is currently only burning on the top of the tree. It has been burning for a month and has not yet burned to the bottom of the tree.

But from time to time, there will be broken branches, falling from the top and hitting the ground, which is very dangerous.

Even Suihuang, who has been with the fire all his life, couldn't help but panic when he saw the raging fire.

go under the tree,

The branches fell down one by one, igniting the lowest branch.

As soon as the flames started to burn, a Red bird, the size of a sparrow, emerged from the bushes, opened its mouth to peck, and swallowed the flames.

This is a unique bird on Suimu, called the Red Police (bie first sound),

This bird parasitizes in the tall flint wood and feeds on the burning flames of the flint wood.

At the same time, they also help Suimu to put out the fire, because the Suimu is too easy to ignite, so it depends on the red police to swallow the flames and put out the fire.

There are at least hundreds of thousands of this kind of red police living on Suimu.

Originally Suimu and Red Police were a kind of balanced mutual benefit symbiosis,

But a month ago, a big bird flew over and perched on the flint wood,

Since then, the flint has been burning, starting from the top and burning downwards,

The red police can't stop the fire, at most they can only swallow the flames under the flint wood, so as not to let the flames spread too fast.

So the flint has been burning for more than a month, and it has not yet burned to the bottom.

But if it continues like this, it will only be a matter of time before the flint wood turns into ashes.

If the Suimu is gone, then the Suiming Kingdom will definitely be gone.

Walking under the Suimu, I saw a girl looking up, about ten years old, wearing a red animal skin skirt, with long red hair,

On the forehead, there are two red horns, which look like two clusters of flames.

Sui Huang calmed down his disordered breathing, walked over, and said lovingly:

"Zhu Rong, grandpa has found your father."

This girl is Suiren's granddaughter, born of his daughter.

When Zhu Rong heard this, she turned her head, her red eyes lit up brilliantly, and her crisp voice carried a bit of joy.

"Grandpa, is my father really a river god?"

"Of course! This is what your mother said, there can be falsehood."

Suihuang nodded, looking very sure, "Your mother drowned in the big river back then, married the river god in the water, returned to the tribe and gave birth to you, there is nothing wrong with it."

Zhu Rong has never met her father since she was a child. The word father is very unfamiliar to her, and she has some expectations.

"Grandpa, the River God really has a huge human face just like what my mother said?"

Zhu Rong wanted to make sure first, because she was afraid that Grandpa had found the wrong one.

"That's right!"

Sui Huang stood beside Zhu Rong and told her about the scene of offering sacrifices by the river today.

"The river god has a big face and a big body, he came up from the water and helped us calm the flood.

Zhu Rong pursed his lips, recalling what his mother said:

"I remember my mother said that on the day he met his father, he saw a huge snake tail in the river."

"It's not wrong, there is a big snake wrapped around the river god, it should be the tail of the snake that your mother saw.

Suihuang still had a fresh memory of the two-cornered green on Liu Dazhuang's body.

"Then...does the river god have horns?"

Zhu Rong touched the red horn on his forehead.

The horns of this pair of fire red, the interior is like a molten lava, bright red, flowing, and shining with dazzling brilliance.

The mother has no horns, and her pair of horns should be inherited from her father, but the characteristic of flame is inherited from her mother.

Suihuang recalled Liu Dazhuang's face and shook his head

"Not really."

"However, your mother never said that the river god had horns on his head. She drowned at that time, and she was in a trance. She joined the river god in the water and only saw the face of the river god."

"There's nothing wrong with it. Grandpa saw it with his own eyes today. After we sacrificed, the river god quelled the flood. If it wasn't for the river god, how could there be such divine power!"

Sui Huang was sure that he had found the right one, it was the River God!

Zhu Rong nodded, Tian was very happy that Suihuang had found her father.

However, her eyes were also full of doubts.

Her eyes looked at the burning flint above her head, the flint branches were burning, and a small branch broke and fell from the sky.

It was like a small fireball hitting Zhu Rong's body.

Suihuang was a little startled when he saw the fireball hitting Zhu Rong, and wanted to tell Zhu Rong to leave quickly, but remembered something, and stood still.

In the next second, the burning branch fell on Zhu Rong's body. Zhu Rong stretched out her hand to pinch the branch, feeling the temperature of the flame, and in the next second she pinched the flame with both hands.

Her hands and skin exposed to the flames were unscathed.

This is her blood, her talent!

Inherited from her grandfather Suirenshi and her mother.

It was born this way!

And because of her mother's union with the river god, her blood is stronger,

Fire is afraid of water, but she is not afraid of water.

But she couldn't extinguish the flames of the whole flint tree, which was too tall and too big.

Zhu Rong turned around and asked 410 the doubts in his heart.

"Grandpa, why hasn't the river god rained yet? Mother has climbed up the Suimu for more than ten days to fight the fire, and it still hasn't come down."

Her eyes were full of worry.

Suihuang sighed.

"Zhu Rong, the River God is a god, how can we guess the mind of a god."

"However, the high priest said that the river god has not yet rained because we are not sincere enough.

"Did not take out what the river god wanted."

When Zhu Rong heard this, she tilted her head in doubt, her pupils were full of puzzlement.

"What does the river god want?"

"But haven't we already prepared a lot of sacrifices?"

Lots and lots of kids about her age.

She didn't go to the sacrificial ceremony because she couldn't bear to see such a bloody and terrifying scene, and she wanted to wait for her mother to return under the firewood.

"I think the River God might want to meet you and his child.

Suihuang expressed his guess.

When Zhu Rong heard this, a trace of fear and panic flashed in his pupils.

She never met her father.

And when she heard that her father liked to eat people, she was even more afraid.

Suihuang sighed, this was his granddaughter, he couldn't bear it, but there was nothing he could do now.

He had to find a way to satisfy the river god.

"Zhu Rong, your mother has climbed the Suimu for more than ten days and has not come back yet, and the fire on the Suimu is getting bigger and bigger, and it will burn to the ground soon."

Hearing Sui Huang's words, Zhu Rong's heart tightened, and she bit her lower lip.

Grandpa was right!

Even if she was afraid, for the sake of her mother and Suiming Kingdom, she had to summon up courage, Zhu Rong nodded.

"Then grandpa, let's go see father... the river god."

Suihuang breathed a sigh of relief, and he stretched out his hand to Zhu Rong, hoping that the River God would be satisfied seeing Zhu Rong.

Zhu Rong looked at Grandpa's outstretched hand, she blinked and stretched out her own hand.

White arms, slender fingers, very beautiful.

But, spread out the palm, there are red scales distributed on the palm, like pieces of flames.

late at night,

Sui Huang brought his granddaughter Zhu Rong to the riverside,

Zhu Rong was very nervous, and his hands were sweating, but they were quickly evaporated by the flames.

"Is this the father?"

She saw a huge body sleeping on the grass in the distance,

That body is too big, I'm afraid turning over may crush her to death.

"Zhu Rong, let's go, the river god will not hurt you."

Suihuang didn't go with her, for fear of disturbing the river god.

Zhu Rong walked over lightly, and when she saw the God of the River with her back to her, she didn't dare to shout, and just stood there watching.

"Hiss—"

Two Jiaoqing crawled out from Liu Dazhuang's lap, making a warning sound.

It is worried that the stranger will hurt the owner if it approaches.

Liu Dazhuang, who was still asleep, heard the movement, turned over, and saw a girl standing in front of him,

Before she could take a closer look, the girl knelt down and shouted:

"Father!"
