Astral Traveler [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 95 The Shadow of the Moon
The heavy rain these days has made it impossible for humans to engage in any production. The life of the tribe has become more and more tense, and it has reached the point where it is almost unsustainable.
At the beginning of the flood, although the men could not go out to hunt, they could at least fish out some fish, shrimps, and shells in the big water as food, plus those bugs struggling to survive from the wet soil. able to sustain.
But then it rained harder, the flood became cloudier, the fish became rarer, and the height of the water rose again and again. Going fishing again became a high-risk, low-return thing.
The food prepared for the winter was gradually exhausted, and the few remaining Kui cattle were already lifelines, and no one was willing to slaughter them for meat like this.
A few men took the risk to set off in a small canoe, and used everyone's savings to trade some food elsewhere, so that everyone had hope to persevere again.
However, in such bad weather, no matter how careful we were, several people still fell ill one after another.
After divination, the wizard placed them alone in a cave, saying that darkness would help to recover from their illness.
In addition, there is good news: perhaps because of the heavy rain, the beast Qiongqi never appeared again, and may have gone to another place.
The wizard has been telling everyone: the heavy rain will pass, and it is too late to move now, and everyone can only wait quietly for the god to appease his anger.
In such an environment, everyone is praying every day, because they have nothing else to do but try to sit still and reduce their need for food.
In addition to praying, they also occasionally chatted about the situation of "Hong".
Maybe it's because the threat of Qiongqi has been lifted, maybe it's because Pei has been talking about the benefits of Hong in everyone's ears these days, which has caused a certain subtle influence, or maybe it's because everyone thinks that everyone in Hong's cave After everything was dug out and the food stock was eaten, there was a certain amount of guilt...so everyone gradually felt sympathy for Murphy.
They chatted: "Hong was originally alone, living in the jungle, it must be difficult. There is no food, and he doesn't know how to hunt. He may have to rely on fruits and fish for food."
"He was born with poor eyesight, which is already very pitiful, so he will do some bad things."
"It has been sacrificed to the gods. In his next life, he should become a good person."
"He doesn't even have a dead body. No one likes him. Only Pei can speak for him."
The more they talked, the more they felt that Hong was very pitiful, and indirectly, they felt that they were not so miserable now.
At least that Murphy, who lives alone and is about to be captured and sacrificed, looks much more miserable...
Then, at this moment, they heard movement outside the cave.
Murphy was wrapped in two layers of animal fur coats, and also wore straw sandals woven by himself, with a pannier hanging on his back. Shi Shiran opened the door and walked into the cave.
The bonfire inside was beating, but it still couldn't dispel the damp and cold atmosphere of the cave.
The naked people were huddling together and chatting, all of them were starving, skinny and skinny, and they hadn't seen the sun for several days, and they looked sluggish.
They all turned their heads and stared blankly at Murphy.
On the other hand, Murphy, these days, he ate delicacies from mountains and seas, full banquets from all over the world. It’s fine if he doesn’t repeat the same thing every day. When he’s bored, he still eats desserts and eats melon seeds.
Altogether, Murphy was ruddy and spirited, with a palpable sense of health and happiness.
Everyone: "..."
Murphy: "?"
He didn't know what was going on with those eyes staring at him, so he touched his face in confusion, there should be nothing dirty, right?
There is also that girl named Li Yan, who is wearing a bracelet that seems to have been thrown away... On that bracelet, there is still an engraving of Yaori, and she can't use it anymore, so is it used as an ornament?
At this time, the others were too surprised to speak.
——Hasn't Hiroshi been sacrificed to the gods?How can I walk back by myself?
—MMP, why can he live better than us alone?Obviously he was expelled and sacrificed, why did he look so happy?We even sympathized with him just now...
——See the sympathy of the ghost!Where do people need sympathy? !
Thinking about their conversation just now, they were all a little bit broken.
Not only collapse, but also envy, jealousy, and confusion.
The first person to react was Pei, who was also haggard and unremarkable, but he was quite happy to see Murphy come back as if nothing had happened, and said, "Hong! You're alive!"
The corner of Murphy's mouth twitched, remembering that he was sacrificed at that time.
He ate so happily recently that he completely forgot about these people... Ah yes, and this Pei in front of him.
Murphy took the pannier off his back and handed it directly to Pei's arms.
A strong aroma suddenly diffused, filling the entire cave in an instant—that was a whole basket of food!In addition to two hot dishes, there was a lot of meat and vegetables, and an apple was placed on top!
"Cuckoo"...
In an instant, everyone's belly groans started one after another, and pairs of eyes with green light also looked into Pei's arms.
Pei was stunned, his stomach was thundering, and he managed to hold back the saliva from his mouth.He stammered and asked, "I... this, this, is it for me?"
Murphy nodded of course.
He didn't expect these people to be so miserable, so in fact, he just wanted to have lunch with Pei... Oh, look at this young man who is so hungry, so I'll give it all to him.
At this time, although the others hesitated to speak, they obviously didn't have the face to ask Murphy anything more.
After all, they were the ones who expelled others, and they were the ones who sacrificed them.Now I want to go back and ask others for benefits, but it is too late to wake up.
Murphy found the wizard, who was chattering about divination in the cave.
The depths of the cave were smoky, and the ceremony had been performed for countless times, but the heavy rain still would not stop.
When he saw Murphy, the wizard's eyes widened in surprise. He was a person who did it himself, and felt that Murphy could not survive in such an environment.
Murphy said hello and said casually, "Hi."
The wizard took a step back vigilantly, as if he was afraid of what Murphy would do.
Murphy didn't talk too much nonsense, and said to him straight to the point: "There is no need to do the ceremony, it rains for so many days because of 'Shangyang'—you know what a Shangyang is, right?"
The wizard was a little surprised, but soon recalled something, and murmured: "Shangyang, a bird with one foot, can call wind and rain."
That's right, Murphy said: "Hurry up and find someone to deal with this bird, or I don't think you can last for a few days. By the way, I'm going to borrow Pei for a few days, and he hasn't finished building the house for me yet." Well, I will pay him, so you don't have to worry about this person."
After speaking, he walked out casually.
At this time, the wizard chased after him tremblingly, and said, "God...why did you let you go? How did you survive? Who rescued you?"
He obviously suspected that Pei had released him privately.
Murphy glanced back at the wizard and smiled, but hadn't had time to say anything.
In the distance, a pitch-black figure came from the sky, and there seemed to be a crimson tail of flame behind him, making him feel like a meteor descending on the surface of the earth.
As he got closer and closer, he could gradually see the outline of the entire figure, and he could also see a pair of golden eyes like diamonds in the sun, and he could also see that the red flame tail was actually his long dragon tail.
A few seconds later, Enoch stood still in front of Murphy, volleyed on the edge of the cliff, and lazily pushed his head against Murphy, as if to ask: Are you done yet?I'm here to pick you up.
Murphy stretched out his arms around his neck with a smile, brushed the wolf's fur indiscriminately, and whispered, "I'll be back soon."
At this time, they heard the wizard behind him breathing heavily.
"God, God..." the wizard trembled, stared blankly at Enoch for a while, then suddenly prostrated himself on the ground, then raised his hands high, "Master Heaven!"
In other caves, when they heard his call, everyone ran out in a hurry.
Enoch glanced indifferently at the wizard on the ground, and his long tail swung from left to right, leaving a dazzling red streak in the gloomy sky—this meant that he was impatient with waiting.
Murphy turned over and rode on Enoch's back.
He saw Pei Ye running out, and everyone stared at him dumbfounded.
"That's Hong!"
"Why is Hong on the back of the god?!"
"Isn't he sacrificed to the gods?"
Murphy twitched the corner of his mouth, skillfully buried himself in the warm fur of the big wolf, and said, "Leave them alone, let's go home, dear."
The wolf's ears shook twice, Enoch turned around, and flew towards the sky again.
From the beginning to the end, he ignored these mortals.
After returning, Murphy wanted to ask Enoch again: "Why do these people worship you so much?"
After being asked several times by him, Enoch said to him with care and respect: "It's a mistake."
After asking Pei again, Murphy pieced together the story——
It turns out that human tribes all have the habit of seeking the protection of longevity species, and they call their asylums "Gods".
Their tribe used sacrifices to seek asylum in the earliest days. At that time, a relatively young wizard hunted the meat of a rhinoceros and enshrined it on the altar, and Enoch, who happened to pass by, tasted it.
The moonlight was very bright that night. After the wizard found that the sacrificed meat was missing, he saw Enoch standing on the cliff again, and prayed loudly.It happened that this day was a rare red moon phenomenon, so the wizard recognized Enoch as "the god in charge of the moon", and since then he has determined the object of tribal worship.
Later, because of their sacrifices from time to time, Enoch compensated them accordingly.
One night, a total of seven Kui cattle walked into the tribe spontaneously—this is why their small and medium-sized tribe can raise Kui cattle.Until now, Kui Niu is still their most important source of food and income.
At the beginning of the flood, although the men could not go out to hunt, they could at least fish out some fish, shrimps, and shells in the big water as food, plus those bugs struggling to survive from the wet soil. able to sustain.
But then it rained harder, the flood became cloudier, the fish became rarer, and the height of the water rose again and again. Going fishing again became a high-risk, low-return thing.
