“Today I’m going to talk about the origins of civilization!”
"Human civilization began with fire!"
In a spacious classroom, a well-dressed old man stood in front of the podium, his eyes were deep and his tone was unhurried.
Under the stage, students lay scattered on the tables and fell asleep. It seems that the old man's voice is like a lullaby, lulling people to sleep.
“Fire has allowed people to get rid of the era of "eating hair and drinking blood"...expanded the scope of human activities...driving away wild beasts...burning grass for fertilizer...the original way of agricultural cultivation was born - slash-and-burn farming...
"In the early days of ancient times, people sucked semen from dew and ate solid grass and trees... Then a sage came out, who was known as the King of Virtue of Fire. He made drills and flints to produce fire, and taught people how to cook cooked food... His name is..."
…
"Suiren..."
The ancient wilderness, a place blessed by divine fire.
Feng Xi sat on the ground, holding his chin and looking quietly at the fire-colored light curtain in front of him, with a bit of confusion under his distant eyes.
When he woke up and suddenly appeared in a strange primitive tribe in the wilderness, Feng Xi had too many doubts and fears in his heart, urging him to explore the world again and again.
If he hadn't been just a newborn baby from a primitive tribe when he first appeared here, he might have died early because he couldn't adapt to this barbaric world where hair and blood are eaten by animals.
Even so, Feng Xi was still shocked when he learned where he was and his suspected identity.
There didn't seem to be many primitive tribes belonging to the human race in the wilderness. Apart from the tribe he was born in, as far as Feng Xi knew, there were only one or two.
But this inconspicuous tribe in the corner of the wild world has a famous name in the previous life - Feng Gun!
Its leader also had a prominent name in his previous life - Hua Xu.
As a descendant of Zhuxia and the Yanhuang lineage, how could he not understand the meaning of these two names?
Even when he first learned about this, Feng Xi mostly hoped that it was just a coincidence of the same name.
But when he learned that a sacred fire was enshrined in the tribe's holy land, and he heard from Amhuaxu that it was the ancestor Dazui who brought the sacred fire from the Suiming Kingdom and opened up the Fenggon tribe, Feng Xi had to believe this fact. .
Feng Gong——Suiming Kingdom
Huaxu - Suiren clan - drilling wood to make fire
These familiar stories from his past life flashed through his mind one by one.
"Professor, if you give me another chance, I will definitely listen to your class!" Feng Xi thought bitterly.
He was once a student of the old professor in the college who was deeply involved in Chinese mythology and history. He was also one of the many students who fell asleep in class.
Who would have thought that those fairy tales that were once used by old professors to attract students to attend lectures would one day become the reality that they might have to face?
No matter how much Feng Xi didn't believe it in his heart, the flame curtain protecting the tribe in front of him made the stories that were just myths and legends in his memory become a reality.
Feng Xi's heart gradually calmed down, but his eyes were still flashing.
"I just don't know how real the myths and gods spread by later generations are."
…
Time seemed to have passed, and the dark jungle seemed even deeper.
Perhaps because he was tired from sitting, Feng Xi stood up. He raised his head and looked at the light curtain in front of him, which was like a big bowl covering the tribe. His face was heavy, and there was a trace of hesitation in his eyes from time to time.
Not long after, Feng Xi fixed his gaze, and the hesitation in his eyes dissipated and turned into determination. The small hands that had grown to eleven or twelve years old wrapped under the animal clothing suddenly stretched out, and the palms of their hands were spread flat against the fire in front of him. Color light curtain.
There is no imaginary fire covering and burning, and there is no profound and profound understanding, as if it is pressed against an invisible "plain" wall.
"Um?"
Feng Xi felt at ease, as he did not encounter scenes like those beasts being devoured by flames.
He gritted his teeth and pressed hard again, only to see a line like water ripples spread to the side from where he pressed, and then turned calm again.
"Sure enough, 'it' is protecting us!"
After repeated "efforts", Feng Xi finally put down his little hand, held his chin and moved it a few times, with some contemplation on his brows.
"The wild beasts will be devoured by the flames if they approach, but those members of the tribe who are out can enter and exit normally. At this time, they prevent me from going out..."
"It has spirit!"
Feng Xi's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but cast a glance at the peak of the mountain behind him. A blazing red flame seemed to flash through his mind.
As soon as the thought came together, Feng Xi immediately gave up the unrealistic idea in his mind.
He knew what the flame enshrined on the peak meant. For people in this world, the flame that protected them was God, and if they wanted to touch their God, not even him, not even the leader of the tribe could do it!
"It seems we can only wait for the fire ceremony!"
Feng Xi's eyes moved and he whispered to himself,
"And without the protection of fire, even if you can get out, it will be difficult to survive in the dangerous wilderness!"
The outside world is very dangerous, this is what Feng Xi came to the conclusion when he saw some people disappearing every time the tribal hunting team came back.
Even those primitive worlds where experienced "hunters" wander on the edge of life and death will disappear, let alone a child like Feng Xi who has no power to restrain a chicken!
Feng Xi raised his head and looked through the light curtain at the isolated virgin forest in front of him.
The dense and primitive jungle blocks everything, as if blocked by something, not even the radiance of the Moon God can penetrate.
It is deep and mysterious, as if it is a maw of darkness that can swallow everything. Just one look at it makes people shudder.
…
"Xi!"
"Why did you sneak out again!"
Just when Feng Xi gave up the idea of going out and thinking about taking a roundabout route during the fire ceremony, a deep female voice suddenly sounded from behind, with an anxious and questioning tone.
"Eminem, I just want to come out and take a look!"
Feng Xi came back to his senses and immediately turned his head, looking at the primitive woman running over carrying a war spear, with a smile on her face.
As the other party stopped in front of Feng Xi, the beautiful white feathers on his head were still shaking.
The woman from the primitive tribe in front of her is Feng Xi's mother in this life and the leader of the tribe - Hua Xu.
He hesitantly wanted to step forward to ask for an explanation, but after seeing the cold light emitting stone spear in the opponent's hand, he immediately gave up the idea and took a step back calmly.
"Go back quickly!"
The female leader of the tribe glared at Feng Xi fiercely, and waved the stone spear in her hand towards Feng Xi, urging him to go back quickly.
"Amu, the tribe is guarded by fire, and those beasts..."
Before Feng Xi could continue to explain, the stone spear in Hua Xu's hand was smacked in front of him.
"slim Shady!"
Judging from the skillful movements of Amhuashu who refused to listen to the "explanation", one knew that this situation had happened more than once. No matter how fast Feng Xi dodged, the stone spear could always change its direction accurately and hit him.
"Don't do it, I'll go back right away!"
Feng Xi hurriedly dodged attacks again and again, taking the opportunity to retreat step by step until he was out of the attack range of the stone spear. Then he turned around and ran towards the tribe.
"snort!"
Seeing Feng Xi leaving, Hua Xu snorted coldly.
However, he did not retract the stone spear. Instead, he held it tightly and turned around to look warily at the primitive jungle beyond the light curtain.
"Ouch...roar!"
At this time, there was a faint sound of animal sounds coming from the jungle, but they seemed to be afraid and did not approach here.
After confirming that the tribe was still safe, Hua Xu withdrew his gaze, took the stone spear, turned around, and quickly retreated in the direction where Feng Xi left.
