Ancient wasteland

Jing Que has been preparing the safflower juice for the awakening ceremony since he woke up in the morning. The number of people participating in the awakening ceremony this year is about twice that of last year.

What's more, Jing Zhu intends to let the whole tribe, regardless of men and women, drink a bowl of safflower juice after the ceremony!

Those who are not fighters naturally have to awaken through rituals, and the awakened fighters will continue to strengthen their bodies after drinking.

What if the warrior level can be raised, after all, the patriarch has been in the wild for four seasons, and everyone has to work hard.

I was busy from morning to noon before I prepared two large tanks of safflower juice.

When it was carried to the tribal square, Huyue stood there with a disgusted expression, "How much safflower juice are you going to give them.

You must know that the more you drink safflower juice, the higher the success rate of awakening. "

Jing Que was wearing a black sacrificial robe. He had just come down from the altar and was holding his scepter inlaid with colorful colored glaze.

Huyue saw him wearing a sacrificial robe and held a ceremony, and thought he was pretty reliable, but when she saw the safflower juice, she immediately turned disgusted.

Jing Que smiled slightly, and pointed to the porcelain bowl next to him, "One bowl for each person, not too many."

Hu Yue frowned, "Then what are you going to do with the safflower juice?"

Immediately, as if thinking of something, the corners of his mouth twitched, "... How many people are you going to let participate in the awakening ceremony?!"

Jing Que remained mysterious and smiled calmly, "Everyone in the tribe will participate."

Huyue screamed suddenly, "Are you crazy?! The priests in our tribe are so powerful that we can only allow two hundred people to participate in the awakening ceremony each time!

How dare you say that you want all those people to participate. If you do so, you will share the divine power in the safflower juice.

In this awakening ceremony of your tribe, no one will be awakened as a warrior! "

Jing Que smiled and shook his head. The so-called divine power that can awaken people should be some kind of catalytic substance produced after the contact between the god stone and the safflower.

The safflower only blooms for one day, and there are as many as you want, but the god stone is different. The higher the purity, the better the quality, and the more this substance will be produced.

The priests figured out the appropriate amount of this substance to determine the number of people participating in the awakening ceremony. The substance produced by each sacred stone and safflower is quantitative.

If you just drink safflower juice to bless the people participating in the awakening ceremony, if you put too much water, the concentration will be diluted, and one bowl per person will not have the effect.

But Jing Zhu is different, he has constitution potion, the awakening of a warrior means that one's physique is strengthened to a certain bottleneck, and the quantitative change leads to a qualitative change.

The safflower juice is a catalyst, but the constitution potion actually strengthens the constitution. The combination of the two has a great effect!

So he wasn't worried at all, and still arranged people to line up to drink the medicine with a gentle smile.

Seeing that he didn't listen, Hu Yue shouted angrily, "I told you that you didn't listen, and when no one wakes up after the awakening ceremony, you will know what I said is right!

The red flowers will all be thanked by then, even if you come to beg me, there is no way to help your tribe hold another awakening ceremony!

Did you listen to me?scene! "

Jing Que handed Shan a bowl of safflower juice to Shan in the front row, dipped in clear water and drew a circle for him, then nodded casually, indicating that he heard her speak.

Enraged by Hu Yue, she reached out and grabbed Feng who was about to take the bowl from behind, "Don't drink this bowl of divine water, the divine power in it is not enough, there is no way to awaken you into a warrior."

Feng was not hindered by her movements at all, he directly picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp, and looked at her innocently after drinking, "I don't need to awaken to become a warrior."

Hu Yue was stunned, her expression turned a little ugly, and she screamed angrily, "Then why are you drinking the divine water?!"

Feng still had a simple and innocent face, shrugged his shoulders and put down the bowl, "Jing told us to come and drink, so I will come and drink, I will just listen to him."

Hu Yue turned pale with anger, "You!"

Glancing at Jing Zhu twice, he looked at Feng again, "I curse you never to be awakened as a warrior in your life!"

Feng waved his hands indifferently, "Okay, whatever you want."

After speaking, he didn't want to delay the people who lined up behind him, so he turned around and left without looking at Hu Yue, and then the second-level fighter Qi rushed over.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, he took the bowl from Jing Que's hand and finished drinking, then smiled and talked to Hu Yue, "I don't need you to curse me anymore, I'm already a second-level fighter."

She quickly slipped away, Huyue was shocked by these words for a moment, a little disbelieving.

Then I saw the people behind him coming up, it was Bei!Knowing that Bei is a very powerful female warrior, Hu Yue frowned tightly.

Looking at Jing Que in disbelief, "You actually let the soldiers of yours participate in the awakening ceremony?!"

Jing Zhu nodded, "Ah, there is no rule that soldiers are not allowed to participate in the awakening ceremony..."

Hu Yue didn't expect him to be so righteous, she was so angry that she couldn't speak, "You..."

He wanted to say something, but Bei, who had just drank the safflower juice, stretched out his arms and carried him away.

He also shouted, "It's noisy to death!"

Huyue struggled unconvinced, "You don't listen to what I say, don't beg me when no one wakes up!"

Bei carried her forward, with a sneer on his face, "Jing is the most powerful priest, not to mention you, even the priests of your tribe can't compare to him!

Don't think that what you can't do, he can't do either. "

Huyue screamed, "How dare you insult the priests of our tribe, you just wait for me, when I go back to the Blackwater Tribe, I will definitely tell the priests to look good on you!"

Bei impatiently "tsk", "Can you shut up, believe it or not, I will hit you?!"

The two walked away noisy, Jing Qu shook his head with a smile, and continued his work of drawing circles.

Although the ceremony was simple, because of the large number of people, after repeating it too many times, Jing Yu couldn't lift his arm.

Fortunately, he has been cultivating for a while, otherwise he might not be able to complete the ceremony.

There are now 600 people in their tribe, and 500 people are eligible to participate in the awakening ceremony.

There is no way, most of the people who merged into the Water Tribe and the Tu Tribe were young and middle-aged.

After all, if you are not strong enough, you will not survive the cold season. The mortality rate of the elderly and children has never been reduced.

After the ceremony was over, Jing Que couldn't stand still, so Ye Ge carried it back directly, and he couldn't get up after lying on the bed, and others told him the follow-up situation.

The situation of the awakening ceremony this time was better than what Jing Que had expected. There were 500 people participating. Excluding those who were originally fighters, it is estimated that 300 fighters will be awakened.

In other words, after the awakening is completed, the number of warriors in their tribe may reach 400, which is a very scary number.

... At least the Great River Tribe didn't have so many warriors.

And it's not just the number of fighters, but the ratio of fighters in the tribe. There are 600 fighters in a tribe of 400 people. This situation will be scary wherever it is placed.

Jing Que didn't expect it to be so exaggerated, but after thinking about it carefully, he can also figure out why the four super tribes are all in the south, but none in the north.

It is because they have no shortage of food, never lack of food, and the living environment is very comfortable, so they are naturally strong.

But their tribe is different. They are very comfortable in the water season, dry season and wind season. They can grow and develop as much as they want, and become stronger and stronger.

But in the cold season, the long-term cold and hunger will overdraw the body that has just been nourished.

Going back and forth like this is not comparable in terms of physical fitness. It just so happened that they barely had enough food in the cold season last year, although not to mention how good they all ate.

But no one starved, let alone used up stored fat or muscle.

After more than half a year of cultivation, the results of this awakening ceremony are naturally outstanding.

Jing Que was quite happy, and the people in the tribe were naturally happy too, the only one who was not too happy was Huyue.

After observing that in the mountain tribe, people kept falling into a low-grade fever coma and showing signs of awakening, she roughly calculated the number in her heart.

She was so scared that she couldn't even eat dinner, and she couldn't believe that so many people would really wake up!

He tossed and turned in bed all night and couldn't fall asleep, and the next day he looked at Jing Que with fear.

She is a candidate for sacrifice, and she was born in the super tribe of Blackwater City, so she naturally knows how terrifying it is to be able to awaken so many people at once.

When talking to Jing Que, they were extremely cautious and did not dare to amplify their voices at all.

Hu Yue stood there hesitantly, unable to speak, and Jing Que ignored her.

He was listening to Bei telling him about the situation in the tribe, "The three brothers who came from the tribe, awakened into three strange fish, which looked very strange.

When awakened, the three brothers all took the shape of a fish, about two people tall, with scales as big as my palm, and a particularly elongated mouth, which is scary to look at.

Fortunately, we all take care of those who have symptoms of awakening, and someone next to them hastily threw them into the water, otherwise they will probably die on the ground.

Just after awakening, the three of them made an appointment to go swimming in the lake, saying that they wanted to get used to the beast shape.

I think they just want to go to the lake to play, hmph, what time is this, they will hunt immediately, and they still want to play! "

Jing Que smiled good-naturedly, "Let them go, we have almost developed the hunting and planting on the land by the lake, and the area is as large as the lake.

The fish, shrimps, crabs and shellfish are very rich inside, but due to the large area and the deep water, I dare not go down to explore, so I have been casting nets on the boat to catch fish.

This will be just right, there are beasts in the tribe that can go into the water, and it’s good to play in the water, just to help us check the situation in the water.

Besides, if they were all fish-shaped, they wouldn't be able to participate in the hunting in the wind season. "

Bei just complained casually, seeing that Jing Que didn't mind, so he changed the subject, "I also awakened as a warrior in the pear ceremony this time.

Yu said that he felt that he was still far from a second-level fighter, but I felt that my strength had improved a lot, and I might have passed the hurdle of a third-level fighter. "

This matter is worthy of attention, Jing Que hurriedly took out the sacred stone and asked Bei to hold the test.

Sure enough, the sacred stone emitted a purple light that symbolized a third-level fighter!

Both of them were very happy, staring at the purple light intently, Jing Que smiled and said, "Call them over quickly, and check their grades."

Bei naturally knew who he was talking about, so he turned around and called for them.

When passing by Huyue, she proudly stretched out her strong chest, especially like a demonstration, and did not forget to snort coldly, "Humph!"

Rarely, Hu Yue didn't scream to refute, and even took half a step back a little aggrieved, but the eyes she looked at Jing Que became more complicated and difficult to discern.

Jing Que saw her standing silently for a long time, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

Huyue looked at him with hesitation on her face, and faltered, "Are you still accepting apprentices? You are very good, and I want to learn from you."

Jing Yu shook his head, "No."

Huyue bit her lips tightly, she felt inferior now, she didn't have the confidence to get angry, her tone was still weak, "Why, don't you have no apprentices yet?!

I have learned a lot of knowledge from the previous priests, and I must be faster than others!

As long as you are willing to accept me as an apprentice, I will stay in the Dashan Tribe and will not return to Blackwater City. "

Jing Que still shook his head. It's not that he hasn't considered taking on apprentices. Sooner or later, he will have to pass on the various medicine prescriptions he knows.

There are many reasons why there are no Apprentices yet.

One is that he is busy developing the tribe and doing all kinds of good things, two is that he is still young and is not in a hurry to find a successor, and the third is that he is a little helpless.

All kinds of prescriptions must be written down. With the current situation of writing in the tribe, there are very few people who can understand all the prescriptions.

He still has to find time to teach the properties, appearance, collocation, and growth habits of various herbs. This is a long-term project, and he doesn't have that much time for the time being.

The fact that he fell into a coma this time sounded the alarm for him. If anything happened to him, at least there must be a candidate who can barely maintain the stability of the tribe.

But he couldn't take Huyue as his disciple because she was from the Blackwater Tribe.

Although she said she would not go back in the future, first of all, Jing Que couldn't guarantee her determination to stay, and secondly, she couldn't trust Huyue's character.

It can be seen that her nature is not bad, but she was raised by the people of the Blackwater tribe.

It's nice to talk now, but what if you really become a priest of the Dashan tribe and then go back to your old ways.

…When you are unhappy, others don’t give you medicine when you ask for it? !At that time, Jing Zhu might think of strangling himself who took her as his apprentice.

So absolutely impossible!Don't even think about it!

He looked at Huyue calmly, "I can't accept you as an apprentice. When the wind season is over, I and Ye will send you to the Blackwater Tribe."

Hu Yue held back her tears aggrievedly for a long time, stared at him bitterly for a long time, then turned and ran out.

Jing Qu shook his head with a smile, and began to think about the book.

Parchment can indeed be preserved for a longer period of time, but he is still more used to writing on white paper, and making parchment is troublesome, while white paper is easy to make.

Moreover, trees can be planted, and the cost of skinning bleating beasts is significantly lower than that of hunting bleating beasts.

Just as he was thinking about it, Bei had already called everyone over.

Jing Que let go of this idea, and took out the god stone to measure their fighter level, and the result was very gratifying.

Of the dozen or so second-level fighters in their tribe, nine of them, including Shan, Feng, and Bei, have become third-level fighters, and three have not been upgraded.

Including the promotion from junior fighters this time, there are eighteen second-level fighters in total.

Just these third-level fighters and second-level fighters are already quite powerful.

Coupled with the many junior warriors they had just awakened, the Great River Tribe was no longer their opponent, and they had no problem walking sideways around them.

According to what Ye had imagined before, it would definitely not take too much effort and time to start annexing the surrounding tribes after the awakening ceremony.

And their tribe itself will not suffer too much damage, after all, their strength can completely crush them.

After the awakening ceremony, the tribe began to organize hunting in the wind season.
