"Catch the kid!"

There was a loud shout in the tribe, and the new totem flint was captured, which naturally aroused the crowd's excitement. However, although Laozi tried his best to escape, there were too many people in the tribe responsible for arresting...

I, the kid, had no choice but to fight till midnight, and was captured after all my strength was exhausted...

Well, this was just Lamb's fantasy. The reality was that Lamb's hair was burning before he ran very far.

While everyone was chasing, at this moment, they heard a "Goo Chi Chi".

Guzi emerged from the hair of Lamb's buttocks, his body was glowing and hot, and his down feathers were fluttering. However, Lamb's buttocks had already been burnt and was almost cooked.

"Goojiji."

Guzi used his short wings to touch the lamb's burnt black woolen butt while mumbling something in his mouth.

[Laogao, you can’t steal the tribe’s totem. Stealing is not good and you will be scolded by Mamazai. 】

"Goojijiji,jijijijiji..."

Lamb: "Baa! Baa baa..."

[No, I am the totem! 】

Lambo really didn't know when Guzi hung on him. Thinking about it now, it should have been when most people went to the gate to greet him and were running on the field ridges.

Ah, the traitor Guzi!

But Guzi's little eyes seemed to be narrowed into a slit, and her neck was retracted, making her look very well-behaved.

"Well done Guzi!"

Confucius praised him and gave chase. After being caught up by Confucius, Lamb tried to stand up and continue to run away to establish the Sheep Totem Government in Exile. Unexpectedly, he was knocked to the ground with a punch from Confucius.

And in the simple process of running around with a flint in his mouth, something strange happened.

Patterns of totems also appeared on Lamb’s body!

So when Ruan Fou and the others captured Lamb, Ruan Zai looked at the totem pattern on Lamb's body with some dumbfounded eyes.

"This... new totem is really non-vegetarian..."

What the hell is this? How come the sun totem pattern appears on Lamb’s body? Lamb is not a human, hey!

“Is meat and vegetables not taboo?”

Yusou Yumeng and others all looked at each other, why does this sound like the new totem is going to eat the lamb?

The new totem is not the big monkey, so how can the sun eat mutton?

However, strange words often come out of Wu's mouth. After hearing it too many times, it just seems like that. Yu Fou understood it all at once!

"I understand! The witch said that lambs should be used for the sacrifice at night!"

When these words came out, the whole place fell silent.

Regarding the appearance of the sun totem on his body, Lamb expressed despair and burst into tears.

"What!"

The great sheep totem, transformed into the shape of the sun...

"It just so happens that we are going to hold a big sacrifice tonight and pray for the new totem..."

Yu Fou deliberately glanced at Lamb with a "cold" look, and suggested to Yu Zai: "So Wu, just as you said, during the grand ceremony tonight, regarding the three animals dedicated to the new totem..."

Laozi didn't know why, but he started shaking.

"There's no point in pretending to be sick!"

Yu Fou grabbed the sheep's ears and said, "It's not us who eat it anyway!"

This completely stimulated the lamb, and it wanted to get up and run away, but a large number of tribesmen huffed and puffed around it.

"Lamb?"

"You've made a big mistake."

"tonight..."

"hey-hey..."

Lambo screamed in his heart!

Both you and the sun will perish (echo)...

As for this farce, the newcomers looked confused.

Whether it's Beizheng of the Jiuli clan or new companions such as Dechuan.

In their opinion, such a sheep dared to steal the tribe's flint without authorization. It should have been killed and eaten long ago...

But the Akagata clan.

It looks like a very happy tribe...Did they really migrate here after being defeated?

Many tools from the south were brought by them. According to the tribes in the south, the Akafang clan seems to be a very magical tribe.

Izhuan looked at this scene, twitching the corners of his mouth, and actually smiled.

It seems that the new life will be very good?

He saw Jiuli's Beizheng, who seemed to be smiling.

Then Izuku's expression darkened.

Of course, it would be better if the new home didn't have this Jiuli person.

————

At dusk, the sun moves westward and sets towards Yuyuan.

A grand sacrificial platform has been set up in the open space of the tribe. This is the place where the Akafang clan came to Nanqiu for the first sacrifice. Guzi hatched out of the flames, twisting his butt...

But this time, a new totem pole is about to appear.

"According to what the inherited memory says..."

According to the inherited memory, how to establish a new totem? In the era of Zhuanxu and Shaohao, huge wooden pillars had to be erected first. This was the "blank body" of the totem, without any special power, and tree seeds and fire were respectfully placed on it, with the fire embedded in the totem pole. The center, the upper position, symbolizes hope and the sky; tree seeds are embedded at the bottom of the totem pole, symbolizing the past and the earth.

Fire burns to the sky, and trees take root in the earth.

When the grand sacrificial dance is completed, the fire and tree seeds will be completely integrated into the new totem pole, and a new totem will be born. All carved totem poles can all gain the power of the totem.

This totem pole is the root pillar of the tribe and the place where God resides.

The totem pole of the Tonghong family is here now, having been pulled up from the cultivated land, and God Youhou himself is also looking forward to seeing the scene of the coming of the god this time.

The Minotaur God said that a new god has come to the world. This has not happened for a long time, and it is a completely new sun totem...

Youhou Shen specially mentioned Juzai.

Don't forget what the old man said.

"Yes, I am the totem."

Yu Zai has not forgotten, which means that tonight's big sacrifice must be extraordinary.

There is no totem pole, no new totem pole, fire and tree species. What kind of contact will they have with Yu Zai? Yu Zai herself doesn't know.

But he has made up his mind to lead the tribe and carry everything for the tribe, so Yuzai is mentally prepared.

Fortunately, the cheap old man Chi Songzi came back, and he couldn't take his eyes off him, sitting next to Youhou Shen.

"Don't worry, just relax. I've seen Emperor Yan. People become totems...Ah, what did you say? Vegetative state? No, no, no, no, where did you think you were!"

Chisongzi quickly interrupted Yuzai's unreliable thought: "As a fire type, the flint will disappear. To put it bluntly, this thing is just a stone that can carry fire. Didn't you say that this thing is a 'high-end' flint..." ..."

"Don't be afraid to relax. Just close your eyes and open them, grit your teeth and it will be over. Mortals light the tribal sacred fire and become gods... But things like the sun belong to the power of heaven and earth and will not give birth to gods. If you insist on That’s what you said.”

The drummer Yuzai asked, "Am I considered a god?"

Chi Songzi paused for a moment and suddenly said: "Forget it...this, of course it counts, the Sun God!"

Yuzai narrowed his eyes.

Teacher, I think you are cheating me. There is definitely nothing wrong with the Sun God, but there is something wrong with your designation.

"What!"

At this moment, the screams rang out.

Of course there are no three animals for sacrifice, so we can only use three pigs, chickens and fish instead, and then add venison and bear meat to barely make up the nondescript specifications. After all, the cow has just been divided into one, and it will be slaughtered soon. Well, what else will we do next year?

As for the pigs, in addition to the one given by Xunshan, Chifang also got some wild boars during hunting and killed one at random to make do with it.

This era is different from the Three Emperors period in ancient times. There are obvious differences between domestic pigs and wild boars, so they are separated in sacrifices...

But the screams belonged to the lamb. Now the lamb was tied up with five flowers and placed on a high platform. Under the lamb were the sacrificial pig's head, the chicken's head and looking up at the stars.

Lamb looked at the flames around him.

"What!"

Lamb is a god and the highest lamb. Even if it is roasted, it must be placed in the most lambish place!

The era is burning under the feet of Lamb! Sheep totem will never give in!

But the scream seemed to be getting more miserable, as if there were tears of fear on the corners of his mouth.

"Wu, you didn't really eat the lamb, did you?"

Lambo's screams made Yanyu rush over, and he quickly begged for mercy, saying that although Lamb was delicious, lazy, unlearned and unskilled, and was a shame to the tribe, the Akafang clan was the only sheep in the family. She hoped that Yanzai could let Lamb go, and she would definitely let Lamb change his mind in the future. Lamb again.

But Ruanzai winked at Ruyu, and everyone burst into laughter.

Ruyu was confused, and the old patriarch touched his head: "Stupid boy, have you forgotten, we have to say goodbye to the old god! The old god is no longer here. As a sheep totem, Lamb must participate in this ceremony. I was just afraid that it would run away with flint in its mouth again, so I tied it up and frightened it at the same time!"

"Tell it!"

The dog stuck out his tongue, the pig groaned and twisted its buttocks, Xiao Dengshe opened his mouth, and Tieniu remained silent.

But they have no sympathy at all for the lamb's plight!

Because the old patriarch said:

"Hush! This hybrid sheep that can't find a home, its time of being lazy and cheating on food and drink, is over!"
