Hundreds of boys and maidens, standing on the altar with flame totems on their bodies, trembling, waiting for the gods to choose.
"Please enjoy it to the river god!"
The high priest of Suiming Kingdom, kneeling beside him, guided Liu Dazhuang.
Liu Dazhuang looked at the altar and swallowed his saliva, it was quite fragrant!
Since it's all delivered, let's eat it.
He reached out and grabbed it, after all, he had just helped them defeat the tiger Jiao, calm the flood, and eat something too much.
The high priest and the white-haired Emperor Sui looked excited when they saw Liu Dazhuang's hand stretched out to the altar.
"The river god is going to eat the sacrifice!"
"When the river god eats the sacrifice, it will rain for us!"
And the young men and girls on the altar saw their big hands stretched out, and their eyes widened in horror and trembled.
"Is the river god going to eat us?"
"I don't want to die yet, I want to live. "
"But if the river god eats us, our kingdom and our people will be saved......
The expressions of these hundreds of people were different, some closed their eyes in fear, some couldn't help but sob, and some clenched their teeth and straightened their chests.
is ready to exchange his life for a heavy rain to save Suiming Kingdom.
Liu Dazhuang didn't pay attention to their expressions, his hand was on the altar, and he took a slaughtered sheep, ready to eat a cushion for his stomach first.
But the sheep is raw, and he will make a fire and eat it cooked.
Liu Dazhuang held the sheep in one hand, raised his feet and went to pick up wood, make a fire, and make a roasted whole sheep.
It's a pity that when I came out, I forgot to bring some chili peppers and cumin, and this roasted whole sheep will lack a little taste.
The clansmen of Suiming Kingdom, watching Liu Dazhuang lift a sheep, did not open his mouth wide and swallow it in one gulp, but walked towards the river, their expressions were full of puzzlement.
"High priest, since the river god wants to eat sheep, why don't you just swallow it in one go?"
The high priest holds the scepter, which ...... Ask him this, and he doesn't know!
It was also the first time he had seen the river god with his own eyes.
All he knew was that the river god had a human face.
He understood instantly.
"The river god wants to bake food!"
"Help the river god make a fire!"
The high priest shouted, and the people of Suiming took out two or three flints from their arms, which were their national treasures, and everyone would carry them at any time.
Thousands of people threw flint in the open space and piled them up, but in a moment they were a heap.
Liu Dazhuang noticed the movements of these people and looked at them.
I saw the Suihuang trembling to the flint pile, took out two flints from the placket, rubbed each other, and the flint burned.
The Emperor of Suihuang threw the burning flint on it, and the pile of flint instantly ignited a raging fire.
The high priest looked at Liu Dazhuang, his expression full of respect.
"River God, please use fire. "
Liu Dazhuang was stunned.
"What kind of wood is this, and how can it catch fire so easily?"
He picked out two large unburned branches from the fire,
Liu Dazhuang rubbed the two together, and with a "boom", a fire immediately burst into flames.
Liu Dazhuang's eyes lit up, "Good thing!"
It is no wonder that the people of this tribe believe in fire, and with so many clansmen, they have such an absolute advantage.
It's really convenient for them to make a fire.
Since there is a fire, Liu Dazhuang did not waste time and began to roast mutton, he was already hungry.
The high priest's eyes kept falling on Liu Dazhuang's body, and he still couldn't understand how the river god, who liked to eat humans raw, changed his taste and began to eat wild beasts.
That's a good thing, though!
These children in the tribe can survive!
These beasts are as many as they want, they can send warriors and go out hunting!
The high priest turned to his people and said,
"The river god likes to eat cooked, so it's almost time to bake all the offerings!"
The clansmen nodded hurriedly and roasted the meat around the campfire.
Someone helped to bake the food, and Liu Dazhuang naturally would not be polite.
He ate five sheep, three cows, and a wild boar before he touched his stomach with satisfaction.
Barely full!
Liu Dazhuang looked up at the sky, it was almost dark at the moment, he was going to go to the nearby grassland, lie down and rest for a night, and then go to catch the tiger Jiao tomorrow.
When he retracted his gaze, Liu Dazhuang saw the sky in the north, a fiery red glow, as if it was a burning cloud.
From the mountains, scorching to the sky.
It's spectacular.
Liu Dazhuang did not look carefully before retracting his gaze, he often saw such a shocking beauty in the evening, and regarded it as a wild weather scene.
Emperor Sui kept watching Liu Dazhuang eat with burning eyes.
One by one, the food was eaten by Liu Dazhuang, until Liu Dazhuang waved his hand to signal them not to roast anymore, patted his stomach to show that he was full, and stood up.
Suihuang's eyes were full of anticipation.
"The river god is full!"
"The river god is going to rain for us!"
The people of Suiming Kingdom, listening to Emperor Sui's words, also looked at Liu Dazhuang expectantly, looking forward to the rain in their hearts.
But as the minutes ticked by, the sky didn't change at all, it didn't look like it was raining at all!
The Suihuang looked anxiously at the High Priest again.
"High priest, what's going on, the river god has already eaten our sacrifice, why is it still not raining in the sky?"
The High Priest shook his head helplessly.
"Although the river god ate our sacrifice, he did not nod his head in agreement. "
"I think our sacrifice is not enough to satisfy the river god, so the river god is not willing to help us extinguish the fire burning with the flint. "
When Emperor Sui heard this, he looked anxiously at the sky on the north shore, and every minute of delay the fire became bigger.
The high priest was a little worried about the old Suihuang, he was afraid that before the heavy rain came, the Suihuang would collapse and fall.
"Emperor Sui, you better go back and rest, your body is important, just let me guard it here. "
"Now that the river god has gone ashore, he must have the heart to help us. "
"But our sincerity is certainly not enough, the river god is testing us. "
When Emperor Sui heard this, he fell into thought, how can he impress the river god?
Sincerity?
Pregnant!
Suihuang's old eyes burst into light, and he thought of a way!
"High Priest, I've already figured out a way to keep the river god here. "
Emperor Sui beckoned to the young and strong people beside him, and motioned for them to follow him and drive north back to the tribe.
All the way north, the temperature on the road is getting higher and higher, and when you look up, the sky is fiery red!
That's flint burning!
The towering flint, covering an area of 10,000 hectares, burned like a small sun, and the fire filled the sky with smoke, dyeing the sky a layer of red.
The Sui Ming Kingdom was built around the flint, with a population of tens of thousands, and it used to be a holy place that everyone longed for.
But now, everyone is at risk.
Seeing Emperor Sui's return, the clansmen greeted him excitedly.
"Emperor Sui, you're back, how is the sacrifice going?"
"Suihuang, has the river god promised to rain for us in the Suiming Kingdom?"
"Suihuang, are we saved?"
The clansmen gathered up layer after layer and asked excitedly.
Now that time is urgent, Suihuang has no intention of answering the questions of his clan slowly, he has more urgent things to do now.
Emperor Sui looked at the closest clansman to him and asked.
"Where's Zhu Rong?"
When the clansmen heard this, they turned and pointed straight ahead.
"Zhu Rong, she is standing under the flint. "
Getting the news he wanted, Suihuang hurried over.
Huge flint trees obscured the sky, and the fire was currently only burning at the top of the tree, and had been burning for a month, and had not yet burned under the tree.
However, from time to time, there will be a burning branch that falls from the top and smashes to the ground, which is very dangerous.
Even the Suihuang Emperor, who has been with fire all his life, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this raging fire.
Walk under the tree,
One by one, the branches fell, igniting the lowest branches.
As soon as the flame was burning, a red bird, the size of a sparrow, came out of the bushes, and opened its mouth to peck it, and swallowed the flame into its mouth.
This is a bird endemic to the flint, named Chiyu (bie first sound),
This bird lives in the tall flint wood, and feeds on the burning flame of the flint, (read the violent novel, go to the Feilu novel network!)
At the same time, they also help the flint extinguish the fire, because the flint is so easily ignited, so it is all up to the red to devour the flames and extinguish the fire.
This kind of red is on the flint, at least hundreds of thousands,
Originally, flint and red grass were a balanced and mutually beneficial symbiosis,
But a month ago, a big bird flew in, perched on the flint,
After that, the flint burned, starting at the top and burning downwards.
Akami couldn't stop the fire, and at most he could only swallow the flames under the flint wood to prevent the flames from spreading too quickly.
So the flint burned for more than a month, and it has not burned to the bottom.
But if it continues like this, it will only be a matter of time before the flint turns to ashes.
If the flint is gone, then the flint kingdom will definitely be gone.
When I walked under the flint, I saw a girl looking up, a teenager, wearing a red animal skin skirt and long fiery red hair.
On the forehead is obvious, with two red horns, like two clusters of flames.
Emperor Sui calmed down his disordered breathing, walked over with his feet raised, and said lovingly:
"Zhu Rong, grandpa has found your father. "
This girl was the granddaughter of the Suiren clan, born to his daughter.
"Grandpa, is my father really a river god?"
"Of course! This is what your mother said, and there can be a fake. "
Emperor Sui nodded, his expression was very sure, "When your mother drowned in the big river, she combined with the river god in the water, and gave birth to you after returning to the tribe, there will be no mistake." "
Zhu Rong has never seen her father since she was a child, and she is very unfamiliar with the word father in her heart, and she also has some expectations.
"Grandpa, the river god really has a huge human face as my mother said?"
Zhu Rong wanted to make sure first, she was afraid that her grandfather had found the wrong one.
"That's right!"
Emperor Sui stood beside Zhu Rong and told her about the scene of today's sacrifice by the river.
"The river god, with his big face and big body, came up from the water and helped us calm the flood. "
Zhu Rong pursed his lips and recalled what his mother had said:
"I remember my mother saying that on the day he met my father, he saw a huge snake tail in the river. "
"You can't be wrong, the river god has a big snake wrapped around his body, which should be the snake tail that your mother saw. "
Emperor Sui's memory of the two-cornered green coiled on Liu Dazhuang's body is still fresh.
"That'...... Does the river god have horns?"
Zhu Rong touched the fiery red horn on his forehead.
The two fiery red horns, like molten slurry inside, are bright red, flowing, and shining with dazzling brilliance.
The mother has no horns, and her horns should be inherited from the father, but the characteristics of the flame are inherited from the mother.
Emperor Sui recalled Liu Dazhuang's face and shook his head.
"Not really. "
"However, your mother did not say that the river god had horns on his head, she was drowning at the time, she was in a trance, and she was united with the river god in the water, and only saw the human face of the river god. "
"There will be no mistake, grandpa saw with his own eyes today, after our sacrifice, the river god calmed the flood, if it wasn't for the river god, how could there be such divine power!"
Suihuang was sure that he was not wrong, and that was the river god!
Zhu Rong nodded, very happy that Suihuang had found her father.
However, her eyes were also full of doubts.
Her eyes were on the burning flint overhead, the flint branches burning, and a tiny branch snapped and fell from the sky.
It was like a small fireball that smashed on Zhu Rong's body.
Emperor Suihuang was a little frightened when he saw the fireball smashing towards Zhu Rong, and wanted to open his mouth to tell Zhu Rong to leave quickly, but he remembered something and stood in place without moving.
The next second, the burning branch fell on Zhu Rong's body, Zhu Rong reached out and pinched the branch, feeling the temperature of the flame, and the next second she pinched the flame with both hands.
Her hands, and skin that touched the flames, were unscathed.
It's her blood, her talent!
Inherited from her grandfather, the Suiren clan, and her mother.
Born that way!
And because her mother is united with the river god, her bloodline is even stronger,
Fire is afraid of water, but she is not afraid of water.
But she couldn't extinguish the burning flames of the whole flint, which was too tall and too big.
Zhu Rong turned around and asked 167 out of the doubts in his heart.
"Grandpa, why hasn't it rained yet, my mother has been climbing the flint for more than ten days in order to put out the fire, and she hasn't come down yet. "
Her eyes were full of worry.
Emperor Sui sighed.
"Zhu Rong, the river god is a god, how can we speculate on the mind of the god. "
"However, the High Priest said that the river god had not yet rained because we were not sincere enough. "
"Didn't take out what the river god wanted. "
When Zhu Rong heard this, she tilted her head in confusion, her pupils were full of puzzlement.
"What does the river god want?"
"But haven't we already prepared a lot of sacrifices?"
Many, many children who are not much different from her age.
She didn't go to the sacrifice because she couldn't bear to see such a bloody and horrible scene, and she wanted to wait for her mother's return under the flint.
"I think the river god probably wants to meet you, to meet his children. "
Suihuang voiced his guess.
When Zhu Rong heard this, a trace of fear and panic flashed in his pupils.
She had never met her father.
And when she heard that her father liked to eat people, she was even more afraid.
Emperor Sui sighed, this is his granddaughter, and he can't bear it, but there is no way to do it now.
He had to find a way to satisfy the river god.
"Zhu Rong, your mother has been climbing the flint for more than ten days, and she has not come back, and the fire on the flint is getting bigger and bigger, and it is about to burn to the ground. "
Hearing Emperor Sui'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, for the sake of Sui Mingguo, she had to muster up courage, Zhu Rong nodded.
"Grandpa, let's go see my father...... River god bar. "
Emperor Sui breathed a sigh of relief, and he stretched out his hand to this Zhu Rong, hoping that the river god would be satisfied when he saw Zhu Rong.
Zhu Rong looked at her grandfather's outstretched hand, she blinked, and also stretched out her hand.
The white arms and slender fingers are very beautiful.
It's just that when you spread out your palms, there are red scales distributed on your palms, like pieces of flames.
......
late at night
Emperor Sui took his granddaughter Zhu Rong to the river,
Zhu Rong was very nervous, and his palms were a little sweaty, but they were quickly dried by the flames.
"Is this the father?"
She saw in the distance on the grass, on which a huge body slept,
That body is too big, I'm afraid that turning over will crush her to death.
"Zhu Rong, go over, the river god won't hurt you. "
Emperor Sui did not accompany her over, for fear of disturbing the river god.
Zhu Rong walked over lightly, and when she saw the river god with her back to her, she didn't dare to shout, so she stood there and watched.
"Hiss-"
Liangjiaoqing climbed out of Liu Dazhuang's thigh and made a vigilant sound.
It fears that the stranger will come close and hurt its owner.
Liu Dazhuang, who was not asleep yet, heard the movement, turned over, and saw a girl in front of him, standing in front of him.
Before she could look closely, the girl knelt down and shouted:
"Father!"
......。
