Chapter 16 Falling Thorns

After Sai finished speaking, Ba asked people to carry the tools used for punishment onto the sacrificial altar.

Zhu raised his eyes and saw the wooden tool being carried up to the sacrificial altar, and his heart was slightly touched. This tool is a relatively important hunting tool for their tribe, but it is going to be used on him at this time?

He knew that this tool was used for punishment besides hunting, but generally no one in the tribe needed to be punished, and this was the first time he had seen it.

He raised his eyes to glance at the pitch-black sky, and then looked into the distance for a while, before facing the object he was about to be punished.

Such valuable hunting tools are passed down from ancestors and are generally only used when food is in short supply.

This hunting tool was made by the priests of the past dynasties. Now the manufacturing technology has been lost. Their tribe cherishes this tool very much, but now they want to use it on him...

When Ba asked people to carry the hunting tools to the sacrificial altar, the other tribes gasped when they saw the exquisite tools. They immediately felt that it was right to join the Ba tribe. They had never seen such exquisite tools before. It can't be manufactured, but it can be clearly seen that this tool is used for hunting.

Asa also saw the tool, and her eyes were wide open. She didn't like some women's work since she was a child, and liked to go hunting with men. Now she was surprised to see such a delicate thing for hunting.

Placed on the sacrificial altar is a square, neatly cut wooden board, densely packed with countless upside-down wooden thorns, the barbs look very sharp under the light of the fire, and I don't know what kind of wood it is made of. become.

When the people under the sacrificial altar saw this tool, they could think of the scene where the prey passed by or fell on the tool, and the blood spurted out and lost their lives. As long as they thought of this, their blood boiled.

Seeing that the audience was talking again, Sai looked down at the crowd, and after a long time, when her voice became quieter, she said: "This tool is called Luothorn. It was cast by the priests of our tribe's ancestors. It is used to punish those who make the most serious mistakes in the tribe. Now I punish Soo with the thorn. Soo has to lie on the thorn for ten days without eating or drinking. If Soo can survive the ten days, he can naturally leave the tribe. If you can't last ten days, even if you die from the falling thorn, you can be regarded as the ghost of my tribe."

After Sai finished speaking, some people shivered at this kind of punishment because the wooden thorns on the falling thorns were too sharp, but Asa was a little unwilling to hear such a punishment.

Although this punishment is very tragic and uncomfortable, ordinary people must not be able to bear it, but a strong and powerful man can still endure it.

She didn't want Soo to be alive at all. Ever since Soo robbed a man in front of her in her wife snatching activity and provoked the wrath of the sky, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, the more angry she was, and she couldn't restrain herself at all. Since then, as long as she closes her eyes, the scene of the wrath of the sky will appear in her mind, and her whole body will tremble.

At this time, she didn't have the feeling of admiration for Soo at all, but only anger. Therefore, after listening to Sai, she stood up and said to Sai on the sacrificial altar: "Priest, Soo has provoked you." Wrath of the sky, is it too light to deal with the person who destroyed my family sacrificial altar and my marriage with Ba?"

Asa who suddenly stood up made Ba a little surprised. Ba didn't expect Asa to be so angry, no wonder he asked him how to deal with Zhu.

It seems that Asa is very concerned about what happened that night when he robbed his wife.

Sai looked at Asa, who was full of anger in the audience, and frowned. Asa was about to marry Ba, and would become his grandson's wife. Soo had destroyed Asa's wife-robbing activity. Asa should be so angry, but She couldn't bear to punish Zhu with the most severe punishment in the tribe, expelled Zhu from the tribe, and now she wants to punish him again?

How could she be punished again?

What Asa said made the other tribal people look sideways. They didn't expect that Asa would not accept Sai's punishment. They seemed to think that the punishment was too light. Under such circumstances, lying on the falling thorn for ten days and ten nights, even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured. If he was expelled from the tribe, it would be difficult to survive.

Therefore, they talked a lot about Asa, and a woman who reproduced would think that the punishment of Soo was too light.

After Asa stood up and said something, the Mizu priest brought Asara back, glanced at the people who were arguing around, and explained to Sai: "Asa is not questioning the priest's punishment, but I, Mizu The punishment for the Wrath of Heaven is very serious, that's why Asa said that, since the priest decided to punish him in this way, we have no doubts about it."

Since they have decided to attach themselves to such a powerful man as Ba, they must learn the rules of the Ba tribe, otherwise there will be endless troubles in the future.

After the priest brought Asara back, he whispered: "Asa, have you forgotten that as a woman, you have to be a mother, not to mention that in order to become a priest in the future, Asa must be kind and benevolent, pray for the tribal people, and become a member of the tribe? the backbone of the human spirit.”

"But..." But she was not reconciled, she didn't want Soo to live.

What she is afraid of is the appearance of Soo. Soo snatching men on the sacrificial altar will make the gods angry and make her lonely for a lifetime.

Although both the priest and Ba blamed Zhu for the fault, she felt uneasy and feared being punished by the gods, so she had to execute Zhu to appease the anger of the gods.

"No need, but Zhu was seriously injured, and it is almost impossible to survive." The priest said so, and Asa remembered that it was indeed difficult to survive when he was seriously injured and had no medical treatment, so he stopped struggling.

Seeing that the priests of the Mi clan no longer entangled with this matter, Sai asked people to go up to the sacrificial altar, untied Zhu tied to the pillar, and asked people to re-tie Zhu's hands and feet, and carried them to the flat falling thorns.

When Soo was about to put it on the thorn, Sey looked away, unable to bear to look.

Men from other tribes were used to seeing blood, so they didn't feel anything at the moment.

Zhu was lifted up by the four people, and when he put it down, all he could think about was Chu Ruoyun. When the pain hit, he felt the pain piercing his heart and the feeling of blood gushing out, but he didn't He didn't make any noise, just stared at the dark night sky, his head was a little dizzy, he didn't know how Chu Ruoyun and Ye were doing now.

After Ye took Chu Ruoyun out of the tribe, he went to a hidden cave nearby. The cave was so big that it was enough for the group of them to hide from the rain.

After Ye settled down with the group, he, Ting and Swill put Chu Ruoyun down.

The three put Chu Ruoyun down, unfolded the animal skin that wrapped Chu Ruoyun, and fell into deep thought.

"Ye, if you snatch this man back, will you really marry this man?" Ting still asked in disbelief.

"Yeah." Ye nodded and said, "It's what Grandma said, so of course Soo will obey."

"However, grabbing a man will provoke the wrath of the sky, and it's not like Ye didn't see it." Miao said angrily, "Besides, marrying a man is also not allowed."

"This..." Ye couldn't explain it, so he said, "Let's talk about everything when Su comes back."

Chu Ruoyun woke up when the three were talking, he opened his mouth, opened his eyes and saw the three people looking at him, he woke up instantly, when he saw clearly that the three were Zhu's subordinates, he let go With a sigh of relief, he moved his limp body and sat up, looking at the three of them, who also looked at Chu Ruoyun.

When Chu Ruoyun fell asleep, the three of them felt that Chu Ruoyun's skin was too white, unlike any tribe here, and that Chu Ruoyun's hair was short, he had no beard, and he was shorter than a woman, and he was not strong enough. , such a man does not know how to survive.
