"#¥5?"
The strong leader of the semi-agricultural tribe was like a frightened child at this time.
He held the bone dagger stuck in the chest of the Sheep Tribe leader in one hand, turned around, and looked at the wise female priest as if asking for help, wanting to get guidance and help from her.
Because of nervousness and fear, the voice of the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe trembled slightly.
Another important reason why he turned his head away was that he didn't dare to look at the smile on the face of the guy whose heart had stopped beating.
The people of the Sheep Tribe stared blankly at their leader who had lost his voice. For a moment, they didn't know what to do or what to think.
The witch of the semi-agricultural tribe looked at the leader of the sheep tribe with a strange smile on his face. She was shocked, but also angry.
Part of her anger came from the fact that the leader of the Sheep Tribe had done something that was completely beyond her expectations, and the other part was because she was angry at the reaction of the people in her tribe.
There are so many people in my tribe, how could they be scared by these people who have no ability to resist at all?
"#¥%F..."
Facing the question from the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe, she frowned, but then said something.
As her words rang out, the semi-agricultural tribe, which had been intimidated by the death of the Sheep Tribe leader, gradually relaxed, and the atmosphere was no longer as solemn as before...
The priestess of the semi-agricultural tribe looked at the leader, but the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe stood there hesitating.
After a while, the female priest walked up to the leader of the Sheep Tribe and forcefully pulled out the bone dagger that was stuck in his chest.
The blood, which had not yet cooled, sprayed half of the priestess's body, but she acted as if she didn't see it.
Instead, in front of everyone, he dipped his finger in the blood of the Sheep Tribe leader's chest, faced everyone in the Sheep Tribe, and drew from his forehead along the bridge of his nose.
The bloodstain that divided her face in the middle made her look very strange and scary.
After doing all this, she began to talk to the remaining people in the Sheep Tribe.
While speaking, he repeated the action of drawing on his face with blood with his hands, and pointed to the mutton soup that had been cooked not far away. Then he pointed the bloody bone dagger in his hand at his chest in front of everyone.
The meaning is very clear. Those who paint their faces with blood can survive and drink broth. Those who do not paint will be stabbed to death by this bone dagger, just like the leader of the Sheep Tribe who just died.
Although the unexpected death of the Sheep Tribe leader made the Semi-Agricultural Tribe’s female priest’s previous plan come to nothing, the wise men of this Semi-Agricultural Tribe quickly came up with a new response plan based on the current situation.
She looked coldly at the people of the Sheep Tribe. The tragic death of their leader in front of them made the people of the Sheep Tribe so terrified that they dared not look at this evil woman.
After a moment of stalemate, the female priest of the Semi-Agricultural Tribe said something, then slowly walked towards the people of the Sheep Tribe with a bloody dagger in her hand and covered in blood.
In a group, there are always all kinds of people, including brave warriors who are not afraid of death and cowards who live in fear. It may be fine if life goes smoothly on weekdays, but once they encounter difficulties and crises, their hidden nature will gradually be exposed.
"#¥K..."
Under such oppression, some people in the Sheep Tribe finally couldn't stand it anymore.
Someone staggered to the wooden stake, crying and smearing the blood of the smiling sheep tribe leader on his face.
With the first one, there will be the second, the third...
The priestess of the semi-agricultural tribe looked at all this and loosened her grip on the dagger. She knew that this time her wisdom had helped the tribe solve a difficult problem.
In front of everyone in the Sheep Tribe, these people smeared their leader's blood on their faces and promised that they would never leave their tribe again.
There were also people from the Sheep Tribe who did not move.
These people stood there, spitting at the guys who smeared the leader's blood on their faces, and cursing with words that were not very fluent...
To everyone's expectation, those members of the Sheep Tribe who did not smear their leader's blood on their faces were not killed by the priestess of the Semi-Agricultural Tribe.
Not only that, she also had food brought to them.
Of course, these foods were not delicacies like broth, but some wild fruits.
"¥%6..."
Faced with the questions from the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe, the priestess began to talk about her plans.
What she meant was that those who chose to smear the blood could join their tribe and slowly ask them about the secrets of sheep.
Those who were not smeared with blood also had to stay, but their status was different from that of other people in the tribe.
These people need to do a lot of work under the supervision of their tribesmen. If they don't work, they will be beaten and starved.
The female priest of the semi-agricultural tribe didn't know what slaves were, but with some wisdom, she did manage to get the slaves out...
The people of the Sheep Tribe who stayed in the cave and herded their domesticated sheep finally began to panic after waiting for a few more days without seeing their leader return.
Especially when one of the older primitive men appeared in front of everyone holding two ropes.
These two ropes, one new and one old, the new one was made this year, and the old one was made before.
However, no matter whether these two ropes are new or old, they have one common feature.
The characteristic of this rope is that there are some small bumps on both ropes.
This older primitive man put the two ropes together, and it can be seen that the new rope has more knots than the old rope.
The bumps on the rope represent one day. The old rope was made by this old primitive man when the leader of the sheep tribe led people to capture the sheep in previous years.
It has the most knots among the old ropes.
And now, the knots on the newly knotted rope this year are actually larger than the old rope with the biggest knots, which is very telling.
After understanding what the old primitive man said, the rest of the people in the Sheep Tribe became deeply worried.
After some discussion, five people were selected from the remaining people, armed with weapons and food, and headed towards the place where the Sheep Tribe leader and his men were hunting sheep...
The autumn sun shines down, illuminating the quietly flowing river and the water plants by the river.
There were no jackals, tigers, leopards or other creatures waiting here for the arrival of the sheep, nor were there any leaders guarding here. There were only the dazzling white sheep bones scattered along the river bank.
These are the new bones left this year...
