The Caveman Made Me Awesome

The day of the Great Sacrifice is coming soon.

This year's big sacrifice was held in the newly completed Colosseum.

That's right, before the first snow fell, the colosseum covering an area of ​​up to 20,000 square meters was completely completed.

The speed of construction of this giant building far exceeded Ye Xi's expectations, and it gave him a big surprise.

We must know that ancient Rome took 40,000 slaves and eight years to build the Colosseum, but the productivity was extremely backward, and the primitive people with only a handful of brute force took less than a year.

The reason is partly because Xicheng has added six new tribes this year, adding more than 20,000 people. More importantly, it is because all Xicheng people love this land very much.

Everyone is really desperately building their own homes.

Ye Xi never urged them, but until late at night, people often worked on the construction site by the moonlight, even the tree man who liked to go to bed early when it was dark, waved tree silk to help deliver stone bricks, and persuaded them. Don't listen, everyone is very motivated.

So, we created this miracle.

This majestic Colosseum is far beyond the construction level of this era, like a lying colossus, it is breath-taking to look at, and it also makes all Xicheng people excited and proud when they see it.

During the great sacrifice.

More than forty witches stood in the center of the magnificent Colosseum wearing spotless white robes. All of them looked solemn, leaning on bone staffs, and chanting in unison in the flying snowflakes.

The 240 large drums used for sacrifices were placed in the 240 arched holes along the wall of the Colosseum. When they were struck together, the sound of the drums was deafening, like thunder.

In the Colosseum, thunderous sacrificial drums and resounding shamanistic chants echoed continuously, echoing one after another like waves, making the scene extremely solemn and sacred.

All the Xicheng people at the scene were affected by the atmosphere, and they clenched their fists excitedly, with tears in their eyes.

This time the great priest reproduced the spectacle of the last great sacrifice. The giant tower of white flames rose suddenly, and the dark green energy storm condensed crazily. There are more or less breakthroughs.

With the help of the ancestral witch's bone staff, this time Xicheng has mobilized more than 2,000 new fighters.

Because of the rectification of the hunting team this year, the hunting efficiency has improved,

The obtained beast cores are more, so everyone discarded the mixed-blood beast cores, and the last beast cores used are also pure-blood level, which makes this group of awakened warriors have higher potential.

The pheasant eye used a savage beast core privately given by Ye Xi.

Although she was not a reserve soldier, but because she ate a lot of good things to strengthen her physique, she managed to survive the severe pain when the beast core melted into her heart, and became a female warrior with great potential.

In addition to being held in the Colosseum, this year's Great Sacrifice is also different from previous ones.

When the giant white flame tower exploded and intertwined with snowflakes, and fell on the top of people's heads one after another, the crowd did not open their arms happily to embrace them, and the great sacrifice did not come to an end.

More than 40,000 Xicheng people stood in this magnificent, sacred and beautiful scene, bathed in white flames and snowflakes, and sang the city song of Xicheng loudly.

"May I hold the light of the torch to illuminate this vast expanse!

Gather people and work together.

Kill tigers in the morning and snakes in the evening.

Take animal bones as knives and insect carapaces as badges.

The light is steaming, and the sun is shining brightly.

Thousands of years can't drown the glory, and the giant feathers and snakes can't break my spine

With the head hanging down from the dry bones, what you look up to is the faith in your heart.

With a roar, the fire in his heart was rekindled.

No matter how rough the road is, I will never yield!

No matter how many insects there are in the world, I am firm!

Face it bravely and never run away!

Roar! Roar! Roar! ! "

The loud singing echoed in the Colosseum.

After the end, all Xicheng people didn't come back to their senses for a long time, immersed in the sacred and warm special atmosphere just now, their cheeks flushed with excitement, and their bodies trembled slightly.

After this extraordinarily spectacular sacrifice, the six new tribes that joined this year became more united. They were proud of being from Xicheng, and regarded Xicheng as their glory.

...

Wearing a white robe, Ye Xi stepped out of the heated Colosseum and walked into the windy, snowy and cold air holding the ancestral witch's bone staff.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and after a while, he raised his head and called to the top of the Colosseum: "A Zhi—"

Azhi, the silkworm girl, jumped down from the top.

The great priest just now, she has been standing at the highest point of the Colosseum watching everyone.

Azhi fell to the ground lightly, her long snow-white hair was blown up in strands by the cold wind, the corners of her thin silk clothes fluttered, and the shadow of her long eyelashes cast on Azhi's light gray cheeks.

She opened a pair of light-colored eyes and looked at Ye Xi silently.

Ye Xi looked at her thin clothes, paused, and asked, "Isn't it cold?"

Azhi shook his head lightly, but still didn't speak.

Ye Xi looked at her sadly.

Over the past year, Ah Zhi has matured a lot, without the lively and jumpy shadow of the past, and this kind of maturity is the result of homesickness and missing relatives.

Since the beginning of summer this year, Ah Zhi has missed her hometown very much, always depressed, sitting on the top of the mountain facing the direction of Sangcanling in a daze, no matter how novel things can make her look good.

In the autumn, A Zhi once mentioned to Ye Xi that he wanted to go back, but Ye Xi refused.

The silk clothes had been woven a long time ago. In fact, he should have sent Ah Zhi back a long time ago, but he really didn’t have the time. It would take a month or two to travel to and from Silkworm Ridge. If something happened in the middle, the high priest would be delayed. .

After being rejected, Ah Zhi never came to see Ye Xi again, he didn't like to laugh or talk.

But now, I am not even afraid of the cold that I was most afraid of before.

Ye Xi knew that besides missing Sang Canling, Ah Zhi was also afraid that Ah Sang, who raised her, would be old enough to not see her for the last time. This kind of anxiety burned her like a raging fire every day, making her unable to show her face again.

Ye Xi also felt guilty and blamed himself very much. If he hadn't promised in front of Can King that he would send Azhi back in person, he could have sent Pingyao or Qiuya to escort Azhi back.

He looked at A Zhi guiltily: "...do you want to go back now?"

It is now winter in Mulberry Ridge, and the silkworm girls should all be sleeping in cocoons. After returning, Ah Zhi can't see Ah Sang, so she can only spin silk to make herself a cocoon.

However, Ah Zhi said without hesitation: "I want to!"

Ye Xi patted Ah Zhi's head, and said in a very soft voice: "Brother Ye Xi will take you back today, the road is cold, now hurry up and add an animal fur coat."

A light of surprise burst out in A Zhi's eyes instantly, and his indifferent face became vivid little by little, some couldn't believe it, and some asked softly in fear.

"Really?"

Ye Xi smiled and nodded.
