"What!"
I stood up from my seat: "Brother Biao, what did you just say!? Are you saying it again?"
Wang Chao said: "I heard it all. Brother Biao said that he had to sacrifice that Magenta."
Push people directly to the wall! The thunderbolt knocked down a table and chairs! I pinched Brother Biao's neck with both hands and said with red eyes: "Sacrifice! You killed the little fairy!"
Brother Biao slapped my arm hard.
Wang Chao was startled and ran to pull me away.
"Where is she! Brother Biao, tell me quickly! Where is she!"
Wang Chao said loudly: "Brother, calm down! Let go! Brother Biao wants to say something but can't speak out!"
I hurriedly let go of my hand.
Brother Biao covered his neck and coughed hard for a while. He turned pale and gasped: "Brother...Brother, before I finished speaking, I almost made you strangle to death! We are about to prepare to sacrifice her, so tonight!"
I gasped and asked, "What does sacrifice mean?"
Brother Biao made a motion of wiping his neck with a knife.
I was instantly excited and pushed Brother Biao to the wall again! He pinched his neck and yelled: "Damn it! Is there something wrong with your tribe? This is not the Shang Dynasty! Magmazhen is not a slave! Why do you sacrifice others! Is there any more royal law!"
Brother Biao was choked by me twice. He got angry, pushed me away and said angrily: "You think I am willing to do this! I can't make the decision!"
"What bullshit Imperial Master! After all, I have never integrated into them! I am just a passerby! I am just a passerby! What can I do!"
My face is extremely gloomy! He took out the gun from his waist and slammed it onto the table!
"Brother Biao, I will listen to your explanation first, and then I will take her away tonight."
"Brother, what do you mean?"
I load the gun! Without hesitation, he fired a shot to the top of his head.
"Bang!"
From the roof of the wooden house, a large number of pieces of wood fell down and fell on the table.
"That's what I mean!"
Seeing that I had a gun hidden on my body and that I would shoot without hesitation, Wang Chao's expression changed and he sat aside without daring to say anything.
"Okay! You want to know why, right? I'll tell you why!"
Brother Biao looked gloomy and asked me: "Who are the ancestors of the Sherpas?"
When I say Dangxiang people, I push them up to the ancient Qiang people.
"That's what you think! It doesn't matter what you say! It doesn't matter what I say! They all think they are descendants of the Snow Mountain people!"
"Back then! Their ancestors almost froze to death on the snow-capped mountains! Later, it was said that they survived by sacrificing a living person to the Black Mountain. This ritual was called the Black Mountain Sacrifice! It lasted in the Sherpa tribe until the early Qing Dynasty when it was abolished! In addition, there is a very ancient stone tablet in their tribe, and there is a record on it, which records that this Black Mountain Festival is called nOt!"
"Trouble him?"
"I'm not making fun of him! I'm just vomiting him! Oh shit, I can't pronounce it either! It's not the pronunciation of English! It's the pronunciation of an ancient language from their tribe!"
Brother Biao's words made me think deeply. I remember that in the history of Liao Dynasty, there seemed to be a kind of tribal Black Mountain Festival.
It is said that the living people were pulled into the mountains in carriages, then hung up with ropes and tied to trees, and dedicated to a mountain god called "Tang Gui". The original text in the Liao History is: "The secular dead are not allowed to make tombs, and they are driven by horses. I sent him off to the mountain and placed him on a tree, without obeying the rules, and offered it to the ghost."
The nature is a bit like the Luohua Cave Girl in Miao territory, who dedicated the little girl to the cave god.
It's all nonsense and useless.
When I came back to my senses, I said anxiously: "Then you sacrifice others! Why are you sacrificing my little fairy!"
Brother Biao stared.
I immediately said it’s Mama Jane! If you were someone else, you could be burned, drowned or hanged. I would never care!
Brother Biao frowned and said: "The leader must follow the example of his ancestors! The candidate for sacrifice can only be the youngest, most beautiful, and purest girl in the tribe! In other words, a "virgin."
"This matter was decided by the leader! I can't overturn it! Besides, Marjane's mother also agreed! Her mother said that if she could save the entire tribe, she would be willing to sacrifice her daughter."
"That's nonsense!"
I'm so angry! Angry at their ignorance!
Magmazine herself definitely doesn’t want to! Why did her mother and King Zami make the decision for her and say she was willing?
"Brother, listen to Brother Dang's advice. Just pretend you're passing by and you'll be fine after tonight. Otherwise, how many bullets can you have in this gun? Ten rounds? Even if you can kill ten people! Where’s the rest? They’ll definitely eat you alive!”
"Where does Magdalene live? I want to see her."
"You can't see it! The Black Mountain Festival starts tonight! More than a dozen people are guarding the place. How can you go in to see her?"
I rubbed my face vigorously, put the gun on my waist, turned around and left the cabin.
I looked back and saw that Brother Biao didn't chase him out. I guess he was trying to avoid suspicion.
The people in the tribe were staring at me, with curiosity and hostility in their eyes.
Suddenly, in the crowd, there was a strong man about 1.8 meters tall with a big waist and a round waist, blocking my way. He stared at me and muttered, "Hu Ka Hu Ka!"
I understand this. It means that you don't like me and want to fight with me.
I turned left and walked around him.
Behind his back he was still mumbling something incomprehensible.
My eyes grew cold and I turned around sharply! Kicked him right in the middle of the crotch! The man bent over and knelt down in pain. I quickly picked up a stone from the ground and hit him on the head!
This person fired the gourd on the spot! Blood flowed all over the floor.
"Pooh!"
"Hu Ka, your mother Hu Ka."
Everyone around me looked at me and didn't dare to step forward. Sherpa people's rules are that if adult men duel, it won't matter even if one of them is killed. Instead, the winner will get the title and respect of the tribal warrior.
Knowing where Aunt Mingmi was, I ran to find her and gave her some explanations. I asked her to take me to Mamazhen's house.
Magmazhen's house is very simple, just a small wooden house without even a bed. There are many simple tools, medicinal materials, water ladles and bamboo dustpans hung on the walls.
The more I talk, the more excited I get!
Her mother may have understood what I meant, because her face became extremely angry! Just pushed me out! Then the door slammed shut!
Brother Biao didn't dare to help me, and her mother also shut me out. All matters in the tribe, big or small, were decided by the leader! Others dare not resist!
I can imagine that Mama Jane is locked in a dark room now. She must be helpless and scared!
Just like Brother Biao said, I only have a gun, but there are hundreds of people in the tribe! If it comes hard! I would be overwhelmed and beaten to death by the crowd in an instant.
Reason? That’s even worse! I don’t know the basic language!
It's getting dark soon, what should I do now...
If the head is here, if the head is me, what will he do?
I squatted on the ground, smoked three cigarettes in a row, stood up, and watched the sun gradually set.
It's getting dark.
