Chapter 405 Master’s Blessing
Song Liyun raised her eyebrows. She almost forgot about the words "Lord God's Messenger"!
Last year, when we were on our way to the Uda tribe, Balin saw me using my "divine skills" and kept calling me a goddess.
It was probably because I didn't want to live with the halo of "god" that I asked him not to call me that. I didn't expect that he would call me that again when we met.
"Headmaster Balin, you're welcome. You've been having a good time these days! You've gained a lot of weight, so don't worry, you won't be able to ride fast!"
She and Balin had separated at Kara Mountain last winter, and although they had been in contact for a long time, this was the first time they had actually met.
At that time, Bahrain had just fled from the war-torn Mida Valley, and he looked haggard and thin.
Now that I have moved to the entrance of Huangsha Valley, I have no worries and I feel relaxed and healthy.
Balin touched his chest and said respectfully, "Thank you for the compliment, my angel. I am now stronger and can protect our home for you, my master."
Song Liyun smiled and said nothing more.
When it was getting dark, the two groups of people finally arrived at the grassland at the entrance of the valley where the Balin tribe was located.
Originally there were only two yurts left by the Wuda tribe here.
Now the two tribes live together.
In addition to the yurts, there are rows of wooden houses neatly arranged on the grassland, like a small village in the Wu Dynasty.
The cattle were also kept in pens and fed on rolled hay.
Everything was built according to Song Liyun's imagination. It seems that it is possible to use prefabricated houses to build a transition period.
Houses are also being built in the Mida Valley, and Zhao Tingduo is in charge. She doesn't know what the situation is yet.
However, when I saw the felt tents and wooden houses intertwined with each other, I suddenly felt an inexplicable harmony.
The people in the tribe had been waiting for a whole day. When they saw the chief bringing back the distinguished guest, men, women, young and old all came out to greet him.
As Song Liyun walked into the village, Zhemao and the tribesmen prostrated themselves on the ground.
The tallest and largest houses in the center of the village are a resting place specially prepared for Song Liyun.
Xiao An had never ridden a horse for such a long time and was already exhausted.
After eating the meal prepared by the Bahrain tribe, everyone went to bed early.
In the morning light of the next day, the cattle were driven by the herdsmen towards the distant pasture.
When Song Liyun walked out of the house, Zhemao and the girls from the tribe were already waiting at the door, ready to serve their master.
After eating the meal made by Yunniang, Zhemao accompanied Xiaoan to hunt rabbits on the grassland.
Han Ming and Song Liyun were checking the situation in the tribe to see what supplies were needed for life here.
The day passed quickly. In the evening, when Song Liyun, Abu and Han Ming came back from riding horses outside, a bonfire had been built in the tribe and lamb was roasted.
The welcome ceremony of the Bahraini tribe officially began.
Under the light of the flames, Balin introduced several elders of the tribe to Song Liyun.
Horns blew, and cowhide drums began to beat. In front of the entire tribe, several elders, led by Balin, knelt on the ground and shouted to Song Liyun, who was sitting by the campfire, "The Balin tribe is willing to serve the Divine Envoy Song with their flesh and blood for generations. You must not betray Song Liyun. If you break your oath, you will suffer the pain of being eaten by wolves."
After saying that, he took out a small knife and cut his arm. Blood immediately rolled down onto the hem of Song Liyun's dress.
Several other elders took turns cutting their arms with knives and spilling the blood at Song Liyun's feet.
The Bahrainis all buried their heads and chanted in low voices. The long and low voices seemed to penetrate people's hearts. Combined with the crackling of burning flames and the whistling night wind, the scene became bloody and weird for a moment.
Abu had only heard of this oath-taking ceremony but had never seen it.
Han Ming had never seen it either.
They had long known that the Balin tribe was a vassal tribe following Song Liyun, and they were shocked at this moment.
The smell of blood had not yet dissipated. Balin knelt on the ground and looked up at Song Liyun: "Master, I beg for your blessing!"
Blessing?
Song Liyun was also shocked by the scene before her. She was surrounded by human blood and her mind was still a little confused.
Balin bowed his head and said respectfully, "Master, by putting the firewood you brought into the bonfire, you are blessing the tribe!"
oh oh!
She remembered what Zhemao had said, asking her to bring wood or firewood, which was used for blessings.
Song Liyun stood up, walked to the campfire, and asked Balin and several elders, "How much firewood do you need?"
Balin said: "It's up to the master to decide!"
Song Liyun understood: As for blessings, of course the more the better!
So, under Song Liyun's command, all the people of the Balin tribe retreated three feet away, including Han Ming and Abu.
Song Liyun raised her hand and a pile of firewood appeared out of thin air. In just a few breaths, a mountain of firewood formed a high wall around the campfire.
The flames that had been burning brightly just now suddenly began to flicker, desperately trying to emit their light at the top of the firewood pile to avoid being extinguished.
The sudden appearance of the firewood mountain frightened the people of the Balin tribe, and they all knelt on the ground and chanted loudly.
Balin and several elders stared with wide eyes, and after a while they shouted, "The Balin tribe is eternal!"
While shouting, he suddenly jumped up and asked everyone to quickly remove the firewood.
They really want as many blessings as possible.
According to general rules, the host symbolically puts a new piece of firewood into the flame, which means that the tribe's bonfire will never go out and will be passed down from generation to generation.
But Balin didn't explain clearly, and Song Liyun thought the more the better.
But this is too much.
It would take at least several months to burn them all one by one.
There are few trees on the grassland, and this firewood is enough for the tribe to burn for heating in winter, but it cannot be burned out like this.
The Bahraini people were also excited.
At first, they only knew that the chief was going to bring the entire clan to sacrifice a woman from the Wu Dynasty.
To be honest, I was still a little unwilling, even though this woman brought a new life to the tribe, rice, flour, food, sugar, salt and tea.
But blood service comes at the cost of the service of future generations, which is still too difficult. He only agreed under pressure from the chief and the elders.
Seeing this Wu Dynasty woman display her miraculous skills with my own eyes, I realized how wise the chieftain of the tribe was.
They felt proud from the bottom of their hearts.
From now on, you will be in the greatest God-blessed tribe and will become a famous existence on the grassland.
Of course, the messenger of God is the young lady of the Wuda tribe. The Wuda tribe is first, and the Bahrain tribe is second.
The people watching the ceremony had different expressions.
Abu was shocked beyond belief and inexplicably excited.
He had never seen Song Liyun use space skills with his own eyes.
He only heard Nanny Beggar and the lady tell him to serve the young lady with the utmost loyalty.
Because the young lady took over the protective bracelet from the beggar, she is a witch who can protect the tribe.
Madam Yun closed her eyes, pinched the wolf tooth pendant around her neck and muttered incessantly.
She had lived in Baolin for so long and had never doubted that Song Liyun had any relationship with "God".
In her heart, the girl has always been the Bodhisattva who saved her and her son's lives.
Fang Zheng and several other soldiers from the Lei Camp were as shocked as Abu, but they were more afraid because of their lack of understanding.
They didn't understand the traditions of the Di people, they just felt that this was an incredible thing and must be related to the strange sacrifices in the tribe. They didn't dare to look at it any longer and quickly avoided it.
