Chapter 212 The mockery from the top of the head

"I dreamed about it too! It's the guide, the guide of the ancestors! The sky maiden is right, as long as you look up at the sky, you may be able to get the guidance of your ancestors!"

The lucky ones selected by Zhang Tian as the recipients woke up one after another, shouting excitedly one after another, resounding through the camp.

Several people in a row claimed this, and there was a commotion in the camp. It is rare to encounter such big news in daily life.

"What did you dream about?"

"Good or bad?"

"How do you know it's a guide?" Someone questioned, "I also often dream, dreaming that I catch a fish that can never be eaten, dreaming that I grow wings and fly into the sky, but it never comes true..."

Everyone laughed, everyone had similar dreams, and they knew very well that the dreams were fake.

The eel asked: "You have had a dream. When you wake up, will you still remember what the person or beast looked like in the dream? Will you still remember what you said in the dream?"

"Of course I won't remember it. The dream is fake. If I remember it very clearly, what is the difference between it and the real thing? Who can tell whether it is a dream or something that actually happened?"

The crowd took it for granted.

"But I remember!" Eel raised his voice and said, "I remember very clearly now, every person I saw in my dream, every word I said, is like something that happened in real life! The sky maiden said , such a dream is not an ordinary dream, but the guidance of the ancestors!"

Seeing that no one questioned him any more, Huang Eel went on to tell about the guidance he got in his dream, namely the three oracles given by Zhang Tianxia: remember to look up to the sky, be kind to the sky clan, and beware of wild animals in the forest.

One person's claim is not enough to convince the public, but five people have had similar dreams and received the same guidance, so the authenticity of this matter is very high.

Raven, Jay and others hurriedly rowed back to the Sister River Tribe and the Sister River Tribe, and brought the guidance of their ancestors to their own people.

The news spread like wildfire, and it was widely spread. Many people did not know that looking up at the sky could lead to guidance. After accepting the "science popularization" of those who knew it, now, everyone knows the mighty power of the sky.

Immediately, another wave of upsurge in looking up at the sky was triggered.

Three people become tigers, and everyone talks about gold. This incident caused a lot of trouble, and even the rain-praying wizard Tianniu who was in the "retreat" was alarmed and broke out of the retreat.

At this time of the year, longhorn beetles always retreat to pray for rain. The people on the riverside believe that the rainy season in the forest is a blessing from the wizard. No, the rain stops as soon as the wizard leaves the retreat.

A gust of wind dispelled the dark clouds that had been raining for several days in the sky.

The sky has become azure blue, and the magnificent morning glow at sunrise recedes into a faint color in the east. There are lavender and yellowish lights in the sky, rendering the white clouds stacked like duvets colorful.

The leaves of the oaks, live oaks, and maples stretched out in layers, sucking in the sun greedily.Wisps of sunlight pass through the narrow gaps in the tree canopy, casting patches of mottled light and shadow in the forest, and the smooth leaves of the herbaceous plants shimmer in the sunlight, showing different shades of green light.

The four witches gathered together for an emergency meeting.

Although Tian Niu has been retreating to pray for rain and stay at home, he is not blind. He has been reported to him every day what happened in the tribe, and he knows it well.

The witch Linglan was very angry: "We took them in with good intentions, but they instigated our people to pray to the sky! We are descendants of the mother river, the river spirit will protect us, we don't need to ask other spirits for help!"

Ling Lan's anger is understandable. After all, this is within the scope of her duties. Whenever the ice melts, she will lead the people to sacrifice to the river spirit and pray for a good harvest.

But in recent years, the scale of their sacrifices has become larger and larger, but the returns have become lower and lower.

Although the clansmen didn't say anything, people's hearts inevitably fluttered. When a spirit no longer manifested, it was abandoned and forgotten. The four people present knew it well.

Lily of the Valley's reaction was as expected.

The witch Jin turned her eyes to the witch doctor Songluo and the wizard Tianniu, and asked their opinions.

"I don't understand these things."

Songluo did not express her opinion in paddling water, she did not want to offend Ling Lan, but she did not firmly stand on Ling Lan's side, which had already shown her inclination.

Tianniu is the only male among the four witches. He has great prestige in the tribe, especially among men. guide."

With just one sentence, Ling Lan was furious and retorted loudly: "It's just a dream! Who knows if it's real!"

Tian Niu said calmly: "Several people had the same dream, it can't be a coincidence. Unless you think our people are lying, lying to help people from other races, do you think so?"

Lily of the valley was silent.This is a very serious accusation. Trust is the foundation to maintain the tribe and people's hearts. Even if she is a witch, she cannot doubt her tribe for no reason.

"Even if this is the case, it does not prove that the dreams they had were the guidance of their ancestors. Dreams are false, and false ones are false. No matter how many people have the same dream, it is also false."

She softened her tone a little, but her attitude was still tough.

"Even if they claim to be able to remember everything in their dreams as if they had actually happened?"

"Even so, it's still a lie."

Ling Lan was determined not to let go, she couldn't back down, she knew this very well.The failure of He Ling has shaken many people, and as a witch, she must not be shaken, otherwise, what awaits her may be the crisis of "unemployment".

Both Jin and Tianniu are old people who have seen countless people, so the young witch's thoughts can't be hidden from them.

Although Sumire didn't say a word, she was unhappy.

As a witch, one should consider the future of the tribe, not focus on one's own pros and cons.If looking up to the sky is going to help the tribe out of trouble, then looking up to the sky is what they should be doing.

But Sumire has always been a kind old lady, so she can't do such things as sternly lecture the juniors.

Tian Niu was not so polite, and said directly: "If I were you, I would immediately go to that sky maiden for advice, instead of sitting here denying the facts."

Lily of the Valley was suddenly at a loss for words, her face turned blue and white.

Tian Niu continued: "Let me tell you the truth. On the way here, I have already looked up at the sky. Maybe tonight, I can get the guidance of my ancestors. If you think this is false, you might as well try it, yes If it’s true or not, how will you know if you don’t try it? You won’t lose anything by looking up at the sky.”

Ling Lan was speechless, she also knew that the guidance dreamed by the clansmen should be true, but she just didn't want to admit it.

Tian Niu's words inspired her, she could go to ask the sky maiden for advice, and it might be too late to "change jobs" now.

But before that, as Tian Niu said, she had to verify the authenticity herself.

Speaking of which, she hadn't looked up at the sky for a long time.

She raised her head and looked at the clear sky after the rain.

……

[Faith value: 1251]

The efficiency of divine magic is still high. In one morning, the faith value skyrocketed by nearly [-], and it is still increasing rapidly.

Looking at the list of new believers, Zhang Tianfan saw two names that surprised him: Tianniu and Linglan.

He hadn't met the rain praying wizard of the riverside tribe yet, but he knew the name of the other party. Because of this, he was surprised. He thought that at least he had to meet him before he could let the other party fall into the embrace of the sky.

It seems that this rain praying wizard is quite an open-minded person who is easy to accept new things.

He didn't expect that Lily of the Valley's name appeared on the list. After all, he and this witch were also competitors. He thought that Lily of the Lily was not easy to deal with, but he didn't expect the other party's figure to be so soft. The first to surrender.

He used the magic spell to enter the dream again, and chose Tian Niu, Lily of the Valley, and the other three sisters and people from the Sister River Tribe, and the content of the dream was the same as before.

Faith value dropped to 1201.

The five people including Huang Eel dreaming about the guidance of their ancestors is undoubtedly the headline today, but today's news is not limited to this one.

After talking about the guidance of their ancestors, they began to discuss the howling of wolves last night.

This forest is very large, and there are many wolves. When sending messages over long distances, they will howl long and loudly. People on the riverside have heard this kind of wolf howl in the past.

It was just ordinary wolves howling last night, but they could hear them very clearly, indicating that a pack of wolves was very close to their camp!

The patrolling hunters claimed that they saw the sky maiden leading a group of people into the forest, and after a short while, a dazzling fire was lit, as if the forest was on fire!Immediately afterwards, a wolf howled, and after a while, the dazzling fire suddenly disappeared.

At that time, the patrolling hunters had woken up many people, and everyone saw this scene.

"I thought there was a forest fire. I wanted to escape, but the fire suddenly went out. I felt that I must be dreaming. This may be the guidance given to me by my ancestors. There will be a big fire one day in the future. I think we should evacuate in advance ..."

"You think too much, it's not a dream, it's what happened last night, I saw it too, we all saw it."

"That's right. The wolves are also howling in the direction of the fire, which is the same direction as the Sky Witch and the others. They must be hunting the wolves!"

"But... how could such a big flame go out suddenly?"

"You don't know yet? Their witch doctor is a descendant of Nuwa, who possesses powerful divine power and can control flames. It is as simple as snapping fingers for her to extinguish the flames. You haven't heard of Nuwa mending the sky story? Come, come, let me tell you..."

Everyone was discussing what happened last night, although most people just glanced in a daze, this did not prevent them from telling others vividly, as if they had witnessed the whole process with their own eyes.

They believed even more that the guidance of their ancestors was true, and the beasts in the forest were watching them, and the howling of wolves last night was proof!
For the sake of safety, twice as many people went hunting and gathering in the forest as before, and the witch also arranged more people to be responsible for patrolling and guarding at night.

However, in Zhang Tian's perception, the hostility surrounding him last night had retreated a long distance away.

Obviously, the fire attack last night frightened them, and they had to retreat temporarily.

It can be seen from this that although these beasts are fierce, their nature of fearing fire has not changed. With Lin Yu around, there is no need to worry too much.

"Whoa!"

"Ahhh! I'm going to die!"

Xiao choked on two mouthfuls of water, yelled in fright, and thumped vigorously, splashing countless water.

"Don't panic!"

Aba held Xiao Xiao's arm and ordered: "Stand on the ground, stand up! The water is not that deep!"

Xiao did as he said, and he stood up straight, the water only reached his neck, and he spat out the river water in his mouth, with a slightly embarrassed expression.

"Now, you must first learn to hold your breath underwater..."

Abba is teaching the owl to swim.

Xiao Xiao is as eager to learn as ever. After seeing the vigorous swimming strokes of Aba and Hepanren, he realized that this is a very practical skill and was determined to learn it.

"God, don't you want to learn?" He asked Zhang Tian on the shore.

Zhang Tian said with a smile: "I see you learn, when you learn, I will too."

Abba didn't think so, shook his head and said: "Master Priest, I know that your wisdom is as boundless as the sky. You can understand many things at first glance, but swimming is different. You can't see it when you swim. You must go into the water and touch the water." , feel the water, become one with the water.”

Do you think I don't want to go into the water?I don't want to scare you...

Zhang Tian complained in his heart, didn't say anything, just smiled.

But the next moment, his smile froze on his face, and he shouted: "Be alert!"

A wave of hostility is approaching!Coming from the Southwest, very fast!

He rushed back to camp, followed by Owl and Abba.

Hutou and other hunters were still hunting in the forest. Most of the hunters staying in the camp were not good at bows and arrows. Only Zhang Tian and Qionghua, who were still breastfeeding, were accurate in archery and held horn bows.

All the battle forces quickly assembled, and the women and children immediately retreated to the back of the camp. The camp that was noisy a moment ago was suddenly so quiet that not even a cough could be heard.

Everyone looked to the southwest, and they knew that this was the guidance given by the sky, telling them in advance from which direction the enemy would attack.

Zhang Tian's face was solemn. He sensed a lot of hostility, and he couldn't tell which species it came from. However, no matter whether it was a human or a beast, he dared to call the door openly, and he was obviously very confident in his own strength.

Rice field eels roast the fish caught today into dried fish, string them with ropes, and hang them on the branches in front of the house.

He noticed the strangeness of the guests, leaned out half of his body, and shouted: "What happened?"

Before the other party could answer, he had already heard a rustling sound, the sound quickly amplified, and turned into a clattering sound in a blink of an eye!
Like the wind blowing over the branches!

He turned his head to look, and his pupils shrank!
A large shadow shrouded the treetops like a dark cloud, overwhelming the sky!

Monkeys!

Hundreds of apes climbed and jumped on the branches at a height of 30 meters, as if they were walking on the ground, they rushed forward in an instant, and grinned at the two-legged beast under the tree.

Apes and orangutans will only distort their faces and show their teeth for reasons such as hatred, attack or intimidation. This is a threat, but in the eyes of everyone, it is more like a mockery.

Everyone was stunned.

The hunters had never regarded the apes as a threat, nor had they seen such an arrogant monkey. For a while, they couldn't tell whether the group of monkeys were passing by or came for a sneak attack.

Anyway, here's the food for today!

Everyone immediately raised their bows and set up their arrows, swishing and firing at the fastest frequency, the aim is no longer important, with such a large group, you can shoot a few with your eyes closed!
After several rounds of arrow rain, there were more than a dozen monkeys on the ground.

The monkeys were shocked, they had never seen such a terrible weapon!Apes are very clever animals, if the situation is wrong at this time, retreat immediately!

The guests were unscathed, not only had no loss, but also got more than a dozen prey for nothing.

The hunters smiled and praised the benevolence of the sky loudly, thanking the gift of nature.

That happened to the Riverside Tribe, who were caught off guard by a sudden visit from monkeys, unprepared.

By the time they took up their weapons, the group of monkeys had finished their destruction and left gracefully.

This group of monkeys obviously came here to cause destruction, collapsed many nests, and took away a lot of food, including the dried fish that had just been hung from the eels.

"Damn monkey! Don't run away!"

Huang eel brandished the blow dart in his hand, and roared at the group of monkeys who came and went in a hurry, and the only response to him was the sneer from the group of monkeys from afar.
