C78 (1/2)
At this moment, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. I didn't expect that the primitive tribe still had fire, so it wasn't too barbaric.
According to the books I've read before, I know that in the initial society of Primitive Man, there were people who ate raw meat.
If you really want me to eat raw meat, then I really can't get used to it. After all, I'm not like those people from the West.
”Chief, something bad happened!”
At that moment, a young man ran over and shouted anxiously.
”What happened?” Red asked.
The young man said, ”The heavenly fire has been extinguished!”
”What?”
Hearing those words, Red Blood immediately stood up in shock.
At the same time, everyone else had expressions of shock on their faces. Each and every one of them had an expression of disbelief.
What the hell is a Sky Fire?
Looking at the expressions of Bloody Red and the rest, I couldn't help but mutter to myself.
”Let's go, bring me there immediately!” The blood-red face was gloomy as it spoke.
”Yes sir!”
At this moment, Bloody Blood couldn't be bothered with us anymore and directly brought a group of people out.
Seeing this, I looked at Rock and asked, ”Stone, what is Sky Fire?”
”Eh?” Don't you know about the Heaven Flames? ” Shitou asked with a surprised expression on his face.
I shook my head. ”I don't know!”
Looking at Rock's surprised expression, I couldn't help but feel speechless. Could it be that Skyfire is very famous?
Rock took a deep breath and said, ”The Heaven Flame is the foundation of our tribe. It's possible to be bestowed by the heavens upon us only in the rain and thunder. Once the Heaven Flame is in existence, we will have someone specially to guard it. Now that it's out, we can only wait for the next one.”
At this point, I finally understood what a heavenly fire was.
In other words, a fire produced by lightning striking a tree while it was raining was called a sky fire. It seemed that the people of the primitive tribes did not know how to drill wood and obtain fire through sunlight.
I thought that the people from the primitive tribe knew about fire, but now it seems that they completely relied on fire from lightning to make food.
”Yang Feng, I won't tell you anymore, I'm going out to take a look.”
The loss of the Sky Fire was a huge blow to the Primitive Man, because it meant that they did not have any cooked food, nor did they have any tools to light up their surroundings at night.
Having said so, Rock walked out hastily.
After everyone had left, at this moment, only Zhao Liying, Jack and I were left on the spot.
Zhao Liying looked at me and asked curiously, ”Yang Feng, what should we do now?”
I smiled. ”Let's go out and take a look!”
Honestly speaking, I am also very curious about the Heaven Flames, I want to know how Primitive Man uses fire.
Hearing my words, Zhao Liying and Jack followed me out.
After we walked out, we discovered that there were a large number of people gathered in a cave.
When I got closer, I saw a pile of burning ashes in the cave. Beside the ashes, two men in leaves were kneeling on the ground with fear written all over their faces.
”Patriarch, please spare our lives!” The two of them pleaded.
Seeing this, I understood that these two men were responsible for watching over Skyfire.
Mu Sang walked out and said gloomily, ”According to the clan rules, once the Heaven Flames are extinguished, those responsible for guarding the Heaven Flames will be sacrificed.”
Blood sacrifice? Hearing this, the two men's faces were immediately filled with fear.
”Clan Elder Mu Sang, please spare our lives!” The two of them immediately pleaded as they cried.
”You must sacrifice your blood to extinguish the Heaven Flames!”
”Blood Sacrifice!”
”Blood Sacrifice!”
At the same time, the surrounding people also shouted with faces full of anger.
Seeing this situation, I finally understood the importance of Sky Fire to Primitive Man. The person in charge of guarding Sky Fire will also die if Sky Fire is extinguished.
With a cold face, Blood-red asked, ”I ask you, why did the Heaven Flames extinguish?”
A man said regretfully, ”We accidentally fell asleep while guarding the Heaven Flame last night. By the time we woke up, the Heaven Flame had already been extinguished.”
”According to the clan rules, once the Heaven Flame is extinguished, you must be sacrificed!”
”Please spare us, Chief!”
Hearing that they were about to be sacrificed, the two of them immediately kowtowed.
”Men, bring the two of them to the altar and sacrifice their blood to the Blood God!” Mu Sang said with an ice-cold expression.
”Yes sir!”
Hearing Mu Sang's words, a few young men quickly walked out.
”No, save me!”
Seeing that they were about to be sacrificed, the two of them pleaded loudly.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that primitive society was really a cruel society.
Honestly speaking, I also couldn't bear to see the two of them being sacrificed because of the extinguishing of the Heaven Flame. One had to know that people had time to take a nap, so it was understandable.
Thinking of this, I stood up and said, ”Keep our subordinates!”
Seeing me stand out, Blood Red looked at me and asked: ”Yang Feng, what are you trying to do?”
I took a deep breath and said, ”I hope that I can spare them from death!”
Hearing my words, Blood Red said with an ashen face, ”Although Yang Feng is the Clairvoyant, these two have violated our Bloodstain Tribe's clan rules, so even if you beg for mercy, it would be useless.”
Looking at the blood-red and ashen expression on my face, I smiled. ”If I were to say that I can teach everyone how to start a fire.”
