Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Everything is hazy, the night is deep, and the galaxy evolves.

    After sunset, Dingdu came, and it was already night.

    Say goodbye to the ancient god who has protected the Akata family for a long time, and then the Akata family will usher in a new totem.

    Behind Lamb is a painted painting,

    Except for the screaming lamb on the high platform, all the other people who participated in the sacrifice did not cheer before the sacrifice began, but their emotions were excited and suppressed forcibly.

    Yan Yu grabbed a handful of grass and stuffed it into the lamb's mouth, and the lamb began to eat with tears in his eyes.

    "Meh!"

    Is the decapitation meal here?

    The lamb felt that he was going to die, and regretted it. He knew that when he moved, he should have run away. As a sheep, he really can't see the comfort in front of him. Now that the totem is replaced, he will be roasted.

    I am not a real person, but you are real dogs!

    The lamb was crying and eating the "Last Supper", and when its voice also stopped, the old patriarch was finally able to stand in the empty place where the totem pole should be placed, and speak to everyone.

    "Our clansmenafter today's night, tomorrow, we will usher in a new life."

    The old patriarch looked at everyone: "Including everyone, new clansmen who do not have the same totem."

    "The years have changed."

    That's what people who migrated said.

    Chu Chao looked at the tall flame platform, the trees were crackling and burning, and the two sides of the high platform were covered with braziers. The preparations for the sacrifice were complete, and busy people began to gather here from all around.

    Jiuli Shi Beizheng also looked at the scene in front of him, without making any comments, and remained silent.

    Yes, the years have changed.

    Everything that happened before has become part of the years unconsciously.

    ?Recorded in bamboo slips, in memory, in dust, on murals, in dances, or may be sung in songs.

    The history of the ancient ancestors is simple and plain, but it is also easy to lose.

    Chisongzi, Wu Pan, including Ji Wuzhu, who had not yet returned, all stood up beside the totem pole of God Youhou.

    And Huang Liyin and other soldiers from three mountains and four fields, that is, the group of fighters who joined at the beginning, are also here. They were going to go back, but when they heard that the fire of the Chifang clan was revived, they stayed temporarily.  To see this last grand sacrifice.

    However, Danzhu and Uncle Xi are not here. Danzhu has just returned, and Uncle Xi seems to have broken his promise. He has not returned from the Central Plains.

    But now the Central Plains seems to be the time when internal struggles are fierce.

    Dayi set off from his ancestral land, and he could already see the blazing fire.

    "I want to reprimand the people of Chi Fang first."

    The old patriarch said: "The ancient gods have protected us for a long time. In the war with the Longdi clan, too many people died. In the end, the powerful warriors who escorted us away are your father.  Brothers, compatriots, relatives, when they crossed the great river, they were submerged by the flood, and finally buried under the waves."

    "The water of the great river, where the disaster came from, has now been determined."

    "A monkeyhe left Wushan, walked along the great river, and headed for Tongbai Mountain near Dahuai. When we came over, the river suddenly rose, which is what it did"

    "We are powerless to take revenge, and the other party doesn't know about it at all, and doesn't care about us."

    "This is the mountains and the sea, it is us, at any time, there may be more terrible disasters."

    "But we still live here, praying to the stars and our ancestors."

    At this time, the old patriarch had already entered the state of chanting sacrificial words.

    It is loaded below, ready to go up.

    The witch's sheep's head jade was worn on the waist, and the silver bracelet was worn on the hand. It was a gift from Chaisang Mountain, and the sacrificial clothes were sent by the girls.

    "Wu, we knew this day would come, so we made new sacrificial clothes."

    Yujing's stomach was straight, and the other girls beside her presented two new sets of costumes for Yuzai, which were made of deerskin and silk respectively. The deerskin set was used for offering sacrifices to the ancient ancestors.  Clothes, when the sacrifice is completed, must be changed.

    The antlers were made into decorations, and the tusks of the wild boar and the fur of the bear were also patched on the outside. In short, this pair of sacrificial costumes looks a bit barbaric.

    Unlike the Xunshan family and the Gaoshi family, which are made of blue bird feathersThe decoration on the robe looks like a god. After putting on this new sacrificial costume, Yu Zai thought, if she wears this clothes as a god, she will really look like an evil god in the Lingnan area.

    That must be a god known for its bravery.

    The new silk clothes imitated the clothes of the Central Plains. From the looks of it, the style is somewhat similar to the wide-sleeved clothes of the Qin and Han Dynasties, and only people in the Central Plains, especially the Tao and Tang Dynasties, wore this kind of clothes.

    However, compared to the clothes in Tao Tang, they are simpler.

    "We asked Ah Hong. At that time, we were weaving silkworm clothes for sacrifices. Ah Hong came over and told us about the sacrificial costumes in Taotang."

    Danzhu not only couldn't control his hands, but also couldn't control his mouth

    "He said that people in the Tao and Tang Dynasties wore this style of clothes to worship their ancestors and heaven and earth. When it was not bright in the morning, the sky was black, and the upper garment was like the sky, so black was used, while the earth was yellow, and the lower  Dress like the ground, so use yellow."

    In this era, natural minerals or plants are generally used to dye clothes. For example, there are many stones in the Shan Hai Jing that can dye clothes into blue, red, and black. The earliest origin of the dyeing behavior is actually  Very old.

    In the late Paleolithic age, some tribes already knew how to dye clothes, using hematite powder.

    Šu Zai took over the simple sacrificial clothing, but although it is simple, it is a garment that witnesses the new era and has great significance.

    Šu Zai is here to prepare, while the old patriarch is still speaking the words of sacrifice.

    "Harada, it is a conspiracy to abandon the old and create the new! We have gone too far, we have gone too long, and today, the broken totem will usher in rebirth, and the ancient god with the head of a sheep and the body of a man will appear in the sky  Bless us!"

    "The new totem is the flaming, eternal and magnificent sun!"

    "When a ray of light goes out and night falls, but the night will eventually pass!"

    "So we ignited our fire and looked for a place to settle down in this dark night. Therefore, we have not failed the years, and the years have not failed us!"

    "Tonight, when the dawn is about to come, the light that cuts through the night will rise from the far east!"

    Among the mountains and seas, there are not many gods with goat heads and human bodies, which widely exist in the Dongshan scriptures. The gods with human body and horns are recorded in the "Shan Hai Jing": the first of the three Dongci classics, from the mountain of Shihu to the mountain of Wugao,  Fanjiu Mountain is six thousand nine hundred miles away.  Their gods are human bodies and horns. To sacrifice to them, a sheep needs to be sacrificed.

    The gods of the Akakata clan are gods with horns and a human body, but in terms of appearance, the whole head is more like a sheep than a human. It is like a dragon body and a human face.  dragon

    Therefore, the lamb was tied to the platform for a purpose.

    Behind the lamb, the simple painting of the sheep-headed god "watches" every member of the Chikata clan.

    At this time, Yan Zai put on the animal skin robe and offered three animals, first to the departed god!  Then, shout out!

    "The god who once protected us, Xian!"

    Yu Zai held an ax and cut open the flesh of the three animals. The old patriarch led the people to pray to the gods and bid farewell to the position of the lamb.  The hands are clenched into fists, touching the ground, while the head is lowered deeply!

    Farewell to the gods!

    Envy!  This is exactly the name of the sheep-headed god of the Chifang family. The word Xian, in ancient times, mainly means "abundance", which means abundance and wealth. As the name suggests, he is in charge of the wilderness under the Gao family.  The name of this wilderness refers to the five-month-old little fat sheep.
