"The worshiper was drugged? What's going on?" Naturally, I felt even more surprised. Although what she said was actually clear, I still felt a little confused. I vaguely understand that there are some insider information involved, but I still hope to be more accurate!
"Some of these tombkeepers and worshipers, who may be extremely close to the worshipers, had their tongues cut out when they were young, or were poisoned to mute them directly...!" This! The woman didn't seem to pay attention, sensing that I was curious, so she continued talking.
I was shocked instantly. After hearing her words, I felt a little dazed for a moment!
"Poison, mute...?" When I heard the woman say this, I was shocked all over, and naturally I quickly thought of Tutu!
She literally never spoke in all the time I've known her. If this is really the reason, then she, like this woman, should both belong to animal spirits. But now it seems that Tutu is mysterious, I wonder if he is worshiping someone!
But just from this, I already understood that her identity was obviously unusual here!
"Well! This is commonly used! Because many methods are used to deal with these people, there are fewer and fewer gravekeepers, and there are naturally fewer animal spirits inside! As for those who worship people, there are almost no more than three in each generation. This! This generation of sacrificial master was hunted down, and he never appeared again!"
Although it seems like there are things she doesn't know, it's obvious that she knows a lot!
"It seems that a lot of things have happened to the people who survived here...!" I sighed. In fact, these are also expected. After all, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. This is difficult to change. thing!
"Of course, otherwise how could we have been living in this kind of darkness? Originally, those worshipers had the right to rescue us even if the Holy Lord died, and we were waiting for them. But now, we are the only one left , and didn’t see them!”
Listening to what she said, I felt that it might be somewhat different from reality. Of course, what she is expressing now, I believe, will definitely not happen to her alone, because this cannot be compared with reality!
If I am not mistaken, these things that really happened should have happened at least more than a few decades or even hundreds of years. And all these changes should be the experiences of their entire clan in recent decades, or even hundreds of years!
After all, there have been constant invasions here, and people from outside have come into the rainforest, causing conflicts and confrontations between civilization and barbarism. When it reaches her point of development, it is possible that her race may really be the only one left, or even only one other companion!
Although it was in the dark at this time, I couldn't see her expression, and of course I couldn't be seen by her, but I seemed to feel that she was smiling! Of course, this is a helpless smile, or with some sadness.
Sure enough, during a period of faint silence, maybe she looked at me without saying a word, and then she asked me: "How did you get down in the tunnel?"
"I should ask you about this!" With a wry smile in my heart, I looked in her direction, trying to figure out what she was thinking, and then said lightly: "I am a friend, maybe someone who is a friend. , would you believe what was sent here?"
"What don't I believe? There are many legends in the rainforest. It's hard for people outside to believe it, but it really exists!" She seemed to mutter, as if she was a little relaxed at this time!
"For example? You can make me believe it!" Although I was curious, I didn't mean it, I just asked her casually!
"The priests you just asked about, if they are free from illness and pain, it is said that they can live for two to three hundred years, because they inherit the blood of the Holy Lord!" This woman actually said with fascination, and even said seriously: "In the past, People say she can live forever!"
"Immortal? What does that mean? Do you really live for two or three hundred years? Or do you look like a girl or a little girl, and look like you haven't grown up?" A look flashed in my mind, and it also carried a A bit weird, as if he was joking, looking in the direction of the darkness!
"You're really right! There's nothing surprising about this! There are many things in this world, and nothing is impossible!" She seemed to have a somewhat lecturing tone: "Have you ever felt that you have done anything since you came in here? , is it a little different from when you were outside?"
If I was hesitant at first, even with many questions, but when I heard her say this, I almost didn’t believe it anymore! After all, whether it’s Tu Tu’s animal spirit or Feng Biwei’s sacrificial master, I feel like I’m filming a movie!
Even if we take a step back, Mr. Bao from the periphery deliberately transforms people, which subverts the cognition of ordinary people! So at this time, something this woman said to me seemed to subvert my understanding! But I understand what happened to me, and I know it can’t be fake!
So when I heard her continue to say this, I had to believe, or rather had to accept, that this rainforest was different! If anything happens here, it seems impossible to me now!
Perhaps feeling that I was silent, or thinking that I was really thinking, this woman was also deep in thought, and continued to say something to me: "After the priest left, the tombkeepers and the worshipers seemed to forget our existence!"
"Do you firmly believe that they will come back to save you?" I naturally understood what she meant.
"Yes at the beginning! After all, they have always protected us!" Her voice became dreamy: "So we struggled hard and lived underground for decades! But as more and more outsiders came, the Tu people People are setting traps everywhere and digging into the area where we live!”
"You mean, the Tu people discovered you recently?" I suddenly felt shocked. It seems that my estimate was correct! What this woman described has obviously confused the experience and time of their entire group!
But obviously their misery is really related to the Tu people outside: "Well, in recent decades, they captured our people. At that time, all our women were rushed in and occupied by those Tu people. !”
When she said this, the loneliness in her tone clearly contained countless sadness. Even though I wasn't involved, I still felt: "I raise a dog, but the dog bites me! What's the use of this kind of immortality?"
