Throne of Vientiane Civilization

"Butterfly, you can stop weaving this basket for now, and deal with the bugs brought back by Dashan and the others. I will come back later and teach you how to weave other things."

Butterfly and the others are much slower in weaving baskets than he is, but they have already made one basket each, adding up to five more baskets.

Counting the eight baskets that have been put into use now, thirteen baskets are enough for now.

Because this trap requires more manpower, each basket must be watched by someone there.

And their tribe included Zhou Xu himself, a total of thirty-two people.

If nearly half of the people are holding a trap to squat their prey, then there will be not enough manpower for other things.

For this reason, there is naturally a trade-off.

Judging from the position of the sun overhead, it should be one or two o'clock in the afternoon. It is obviously impossible for Dashan and the others to end their work for the day.

Putting down the materials collected in the morning, let the members of the collection team drink their saliva. After a while, Zhou Xu led them again to the black forest.

On the way there, Zhou Xu, who seemed to have thought of something, asked Dashan a question.

"By the way, Dashan, where did the head you handed me on the altar come from?"

Facing this question, Dashan was silent for two seconds.

"That was the head of the former leader. He died in the previous attack. I tried my best to bring out his head."

[Fuck? ! 】

What Da Shan said, Zhou Xu almost split open in place.

"That former leader of yours...couldn't have been summoned too?"

Upon hearing this, Da Shan was taken aback for a moment, then quickly shook his head.

"No, no, this is the first time our tribe held a sacrifice. That sacrifice can't be held casually. You have to find the altar left by the old god."

Regarding the death of the former leader, Dashan was somewhat sad in his heart, and his voice became deep and low after speaking.

And Zhou Xu, who got this answer, was also secretly relieved.

If his predecessor was also a time traveler, then maybe that head would be his fate if he was not careful.

Of course, there is no guarantee that after his death, his head will not be cut off and given to the next person.

"You took your head out desperately because of the power inside?"

Judging from the situation at the time, Zhou Xu didn't believe that Da Shan didn't know the existence of the Eye of Insight.

In this regard, Dashan didn't hide anything, and nodded directly.

"That's the mantra that our tribe has passed down from generation to generation."

To be honest, Zhou Xu did not expect to hear the word 'mantra' from Dashankou.

The moment he heard this word, without even having time to think about it, he asked the question that had been lingering in his mind.

"What is the truth?"

"Among the legends of our tribe, the mantra is the language of the gods, and it contains powerful power."

"Then why didn't you choose to keep this mantra to yourself?"

In this regard, Dashan did not shy away from it at all.

"The mantra will choose its own master, it did not choose me."

"What is the old god you are talking about? And the altar left by the old god?"

"The old gods are the original gods of this world. It is said that they are dead, so we generally call them the old gods. After the old gods die, their power is scattered everywhere in this world, which is the truth."

Having said that, Da Shan, who answered Zhou Xu's questions while walking, breathed a sigh of relief.

"It is said that the altar was built by the old gods. As long as you find the altar and perform a ceremony, it is possible to summon the 'God's Chosen One' to descend."

If "Son of the Chosen" is Zhou Xu's own understanding, then "The Chosen One" is undoubtedly a more orthodox term on their side.

[It seems that my time travel has something to do with those so-called 'old gods'...]

"Have you met other God's Chosen Ones?"

Dashan shook his head.

"Then how much do you know about the power of this mantra?"

"The former leader said that the power of this mantra can give him powerful insight..."

Having said that, Dashan fell into silence again, and when he spoke again, there was an unconcealable grief and indignation in his voice.

"Although the mantra chose him, it did not care for him. Even if it is simply used, it will bring a huge burden to the previous leader. At that time, we were attacked, and he used the power of the mantra to point out the way out for us, but he himself But he was also overwhelmed by the power of the mantra, and failed to escape alive."

It was difficult for Zhou Xu to empathize with Da Shan's grief and indignation, but he learned a lot of useful information from the other party's words.

[From what Dashan said, there should be a degree of compatibility between the mantra and people, and only those who have reached a sufficient degree of compatibility can gain the power of the mantra. 】

[The consumption of using the mantra is affected by other factors. At least I used this power yesterday. Although I felt the consumption, it was not dragged down. 】

The continuous improvement of intelligence information has continuously strengthened Zhou Xu's confidence.

[There is also the altar. If the altar is the key factor for my journey, then I will have to take some time to study it later, but the most important thing at present is to solve the food problem first and fill my stomach. 】

Between Zhou Xu and Da Shan's question and answer, the two soon came to the outskirts of the black forest.

"Take your steps lightly, so as not to affect Feique and the others."

As long as there is a little extra movement here, it is possible to scare away the prey that is about to get into the trap. This is also the main reason why Zhou Xu sent the collection team to other areas to collect resources.

Just as Zhou Xu said this, Feique in the distance suddenly pulled the string in his hand, and then rushed up excitedly, grabbed the mouse from the basket, and broke its neck.

That movement was not sloppy, but he was much more proficient than Zhou Xu before.

It wasn't until after doing this that they noticed the existence of Zhou Xu and the others.

Feique knew at a glance that he must be looking for something, so he ran up quickly.

"leader."

"How? How much did you catch?"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Feique became visibly excited, and at the same time swiftly showed off his spoils.

Counting the one that Zhou Xu caught at the beginning, Feique now has three mice in his hands, and after that, he has squatted down to two.

It is difficult to worry about the efficiency of setting traps and waiting for rabbits, because this matter itself is also affected by some luck factors to a large extent.

"The first time, I accidentally ran away one, otherwise there would be another one now."

Although the use of this trap is simple, it does not mean that there is no possibility of mistakes.

To be honest, Zhou Xu was already mentally prepared from the very beginning.

At present, Feique can achieve this result, and he is quite satisfied.
