Shao Xuan estimated sketchily, the quantity no less than 1000 people, should about 1500. 今天的仪式部落的所有人都必须出席,不管你是生病在床,还是腿脚不便,都得到场。邵玄粗略估了一下,数量不少于1000人,应该在1500左右。 More than 1000 people look like in Shao Xuan actually not many, but after arriving at this Tribe, Shao Xuan first time sees these many people, is very lively. 1000多人在邵玄看来其实并没有多少,不过来到这个部落之后,邵玄第一次见到这么多人,还是很热闹的。 mountain top has a stretch of open area, center has circular hollow, but hollow center has the flame that in wind drags. 山顶有一片空地,中心地带有一块圆形的凹陷,而凹陷的正中有一朵风中摇曳的火焰。 Fire Pit. 火塘。 This is Shao Xuan first time sees this Tribe Fire Pit.

Everyone mentioned Fire Pit time always awes specially, looks is bringing not shakable irreverence to the mountain top look. 邵玄曾经疑惑,为什么部落的火塘会在山顶,那里是整座山最冷的地方,再说了,部落已经有比较成熟的打火器,为何仍然保留着火塘？每个人说起火塘的时候总是特别敬畏,望向山顶的眼神带着无可动摇的虔诚。 Listened to the Tribe person saying that Fire Pit, relationship prosperity and decline Tribe. As for how the relationship method, Shao Xuan actually has not found from others there that now, can only look for the answer with own eye. 听部落的人说,火塘,关系着部落的兴衰。至于到底怎么个关系法,邵玄却未曾从别人那里了解到,现在,只能用自己的眼睛去寻找答案了。 The mountain top ruo large piece place, enough stands Tribe all people. 山顶偌大块地方,足够站下部落所有人。 The middle hollow that radius has 45 meters, but the hollow center is burning that small flame with ordinary candlelight, is not bright, felt that the wind blows extinguishes. Moreover, in Fire Pit, Shao Xuan had not seen the thing that any firewood or other can burn, under that flame has not seen the combustion the object. 中间凹陷的那片半径有45米,可凹陷中央燃着的那点小火苗就跟普通的烛光似的,并不明亮,感觉风一吹就灭。而且,在火塘中,邵玄没有看到任何木柴或者其他能燃烧的东西,那点火苗下方也没有看到助燃的物体。 That side exists forever Fire Seed in Fire Pit. 那边是长存于火塘中的火种。 Regarding Fire Pit the wooden stake, wooden stake person of high, is very thick, on each wooden stake puts a stone trough, in the trough is piling up fresh the meat, fruit, bird's egg and other things, should be the sacrificial offering high quality goods. 围绕着火塘的还有一圈木桩,木桩一人高,很粗,每个木桩上面放着一个石盆,盆里都堆放着新鲜的肉、果子、鸟蛋等东西,应该是祭祀贡品。 By the wooden stake is also standing the person, listening to the surrounding discussion sound, Shao Xuan to know that these people are in each Hunting Team hunting ability strongest several, part is a youth, some already year near middle age, altogether 50 people. 木桩旁边也站着人,听周围的议论声,邵玄知道,那些人都是每个狩猎队里狩猎能力最强的几个,一部分是青年,一些已经年近中年,一共50人。 On these faces is also drawing with square their same chart mark, stated differently, the chart mark colors on these faces, not only sole black, but also were many white and red, puts on also „gravely”, has a head to wear the big antler, is much bigger, almost quickly that person who passes through to come to see to arrive at Shao Xuan along the road other people who wears entire covers enters in the antler. 那些人脸上也画着跟格他们一样的图纹,不同的是,那些人脸上的图纹颜色并不只是单一的黑色,还多了白色和红色,穿得也更“庄重”,有个头上戴着大大的鹿角,比邵玄沿路走过来看到的其他人戴着的都要大得多,几乎都快将那人整个都笼罩进鹿角里面了。 Except that wears Warrior of ultra-large antler, several other do not flaunt lets much, Shao Xuan thinks on the way climbed mountains to see suffices to exaggerate, has not thought here also had exaggerates. 除了那个戴着超大鹿角的战士,另外几个也不逞多让,原本邵玄以为上山途中见到的就够夸张了,没想这里还有更夸张的。 suddenly, surrounding discussion sound one static, Shao Xuan looked at the past. 突然,周围的议论声一静,邵玄看过去。 Was Chief and witch came, the place that they passed through, the crowd made way automatically, was specially respectful. 是首领和巫来了,他们所经过的地方,人群自动让开,特别恭敬。 On Chief also wears sincere corner/horn, but the witch has no ideological problems weighing on the mind, has not worn any too exaggeration the thing, but is taking the root walking stick, some back rickets, put on grayish white animal skin cloak. 首领头上也戴着厚重的角,而巫则轻装上阵,没戴什么太夸张的东西,只是拿着根拐杖,背有些佝偻,穿着一身灰白的兽皮斗篷。 This is Shao Xuan second time sees the witch, felt that raised Caesar that time not to have the sweeping change with last year. 这是邵玄第二次见到巫,感觉跟去年养凯撒的那时候没多大变化。 Follows in Chief and witch behind was the person who in this ceremony the people most cared about. 跟在首领和巫身后的便是这一次仪式中人们最关心的人了。 About 80 children, age from ten -year-old to 14-year-old has, these children follow close on Chief and witch behind, arrives at Fire Pit to stand one by one. 近80个孩子,年纪从十岁的到14岁的都有,这些孩子紧跟在首领和巫身后,来到火塘边挨个站好。 Shao Xuan saw the four people in hole, including Mo Er. 邵玄看到了洞里的四个人,包括莫尔。 Before in the hole, that several children were hot tempered, now is peaceful with little darling, the hair also combed, but also was weaving some bone ornament, wore the sleeveless animal skin clothes. Since Shao Xuan understanding they, have not seen these people so neatly. 以前在洞里的时候,那几个孩子多暴躁,现在安静得跟乖宝宝似的,头发也梳理好,还编织着一些骨饰,穿着无袖的兽皮衣。自打邵玄认识他们,就没见这几人如此整洁过。 „This year's child many.” Nearby some people were discussing low voice. “今年的孩子好多啊。”附近有人小声议论着。 „Yes, 30-40, were also many last year this year one time.” “是啊,去年也就三四十个,今年多了一倍。” „This is a good sign, some these many fresh blood join, our Tribe was more formidable.” “这是个好兆头啊,有这么多新鲜血液加入,咱们部落更强大了。” „......” “……” Surrounding person was discussing, side Shao Xuan the group of children also low voice whispered, envied, is thinking when can also stand that place near Fire Pit. 周围的人在议论,邵玄身边的这群孩子也小声嘀咕,都羡慕啊,想着自己什么时候也能站在火塘边的那个地方。 After waiting for the little while, the preparatory work of that side ceremony has completed, the ceremony starts. 等了会儿之后,那边仪式的准备工作做好了,仪式开始。 Chief called haughtily, was a very strong person, heard strength rank Tribe first three. 首领叫敖,是个很强壮的人,听闻实力排行部落前三。 Ao Xianjiang several, said that last year harvest, then forecasts one next in the future, raises morale. previous life Shao Xuan hear of this similar words hear much, does not have what feeling, side some people are actually excited resemble with anything, finishes in the Chief words also raises the arm roars high two, one group of young animals also roar the small face to become flushed. 敖先讲了几句,说说去年的收获,再展望一下未来,振奋士气。上辈子邵玄听这类似的话听得多,并没有什么感觉,倒是旁边的一些人都激动得跟什么似的,在首领话毕还振臂高吼两声,一帮小崽子也跟着吼得小脸涨红。 After Chief said that was the matter of witch. The ceremony, the book takes witch as mainly. 首领说完之后,接下来就是巫的事情了。仪式,本就是以巫为主要。 About 80 children encircle in Fire Pit are standing, leaves Fire Pit to be nearer than these Warrior of it advance party by wooden stake. 近80个孩子围在火塘边站着,比之前站在木桩旁边的那些战士们离火塘还要近。 The witches are taking the walking stick, the rickets the back, fights the Fire Pit border, stretches out the arms, starts to recite. 巫拿着拐杖,佝偻着背,战到火塘边沿,张开双臂,开始吟唱。 Scene suddenly from spiritedly becomes anxious, everyone tightly shuts up, including the breath cautiously, for fear that affected that side recitation. 场面突然从刚才的激昂变得紧张起来,每个人都紧闭着嘴,连呼吸都小心翼翼,生怕影响了那边的吟唱。 Wu Chang any Shao Xuan has not understood, seems not the language that Tribe usually spoke, the tonality is also strange. 巫唱的什么邵玄没听懂,似乎并不是部落平时说的语言,音调也怪。 However, stranger also in behind. 不过,更怪的还在后面。 Along with recitation of witch, center Fire Pit that flame is taking good care, whirling around, under existence of any combustion object, the flame is not getting bigger and bigger, spreads toward the surroundings, the flame body also more jumps over high, until the spread to the Fire Pit border, entire hollow Fire Pit will cover, the flame body also takes good care to three meters high, in the meantime, the flame most place above, appears one graph comprised of gradually the flame, is getting more and more clear, a flame formation bottom in together and in the unidirection curving, outside two horns, the two horns nearby is wrapping the flame of flashing continually. 随着巫的吟唱,火塘正中那点火苗跳腾着,翻卷着,在没有任何助燃物体的存在下,火焰越来越大,往周围扩散,焰身也越腾越高,直至蔓延至火塘边沿,将整个凹陷的火塘覆盖,焰身也跳腾至三米高,同时,火焰最上方,逐渐显现出一个由火焰组成的图形,越来越清晰,火焰形成一个底端连在一起、朝同一方向弯曲、一内一外的双角,双角附近包裹着闪动的火苗。 That Tribe two horns Totem! 那正是部落的双角图腾！ Fire Pit three flames, first flame Soaring Flame! 火塘三焱,第一焱腾焱！ Soaring Flame, Totem present! 腾焱,图腾现！ Not is only that side Fire Pit has Totem to appear, all Warrior Totem Pattern on the scene also appear. 不仅仅是火塘那边有图腾显现,就连所有在场的战士们身上的图腾纹也跟着显现。 Everyone is staring at the Fire Pit direction, the vision is reverent. 每个人都盯着火塘的方向,目光虔诚。 Weather already completely dark, two crescent moon shines in the nighttime sky two appearances. But mountain top at this time, because actually in Fire Pit the tuck dive flame, the surroundings were illuminated very brightly, is covering red. 天色已经完全暗了下来,两弯月亮在夜空两头出现。但山顶此时,却因为火塘中翻腾的火焰,周围被照得很亮,笼罩着一层红色。 Of recitation of witch has not stopped, instead is more resounding, drum sounds join, are having the specific rhythm, has the sound of bone rap and stone attack. 巫的吟唱并没有停止,反而越加高亢,紧接着,一声声鼓响加入,带着特定的节奏,其中还有骨头敲击和石头打击的声音。 Some people pat the animal skin drum, the sound of drum are having have low high, but has listened to with Shao Xuan previous life the sound that some drums make is different. 有人拍着兽皮鼓,鼓的声音有高有低,但都与邵玄上辈子听过的一些鼓所发出的声音不同。 Knocks the bone, to strike the stone and racket drumbeat. 敲骨、击石、拍鼓声。 Stood also moved in wooden stake nearby men and women Warrior, has joined, recited with Wu, with one, was away from certain distance, encircled a circle around Fire Pit, swung the hands and feet to beat. 站在木桩旁边的男女战士们也动了,加入了进去,跟着巫吟唱,一个跟着一个,相互之间隔着一定距离,绕着火塘围成一个圈,摆动着手脚跳动。 Lao Gu who at the beginning of that is establishes to spread from Tribe dances. 那是从部落建立之初就流传下来的老古舞。 Shao Xuan remembered once that research archaeology the words of schoolmate's, „many Tribe had their Lao Gu to dance, was at each Tribe ceremony a very important part, its load bearing in that specific time environment the unique etiquette of Tribe sacrificial offering, was transmitting the Tribe people's worship to the ancestor. Such dance is no one can study, anyone to jump, must according to the ancient precept that Tribe spreads.” 邵玄想起曾经那位研究考古的同学的话,“很多部落都有他们自己的老古舞,也是每个部落祭祀仪式上很重要的一环,它承载着那个特定时代环境中部落祭祀的独特礼仪,也传递着部落的人们对先祖的崇拜。这样的舞不是谁都能学、谁都能跳的,得依照部落流传的古训。” But these people who now, is gathering round the Fire Pit beat, is the elite in Tribe, is obtains has the qualifications that Tribe acknowledged at the ceremony to jump the person who Lao Gu danced. 而现在,正围着火塘跳动的那些人,无一不是部落中的精英,也是得到部落承认的有资格在祭祀仪式上跳老古舞的人。 although these movements look like very funny in Shao Xuan, but this kind of great honor, truly is Tribe everybody thinks. In the hole, Shao Xuan little has not listened to these young animals to fantasize that some day become at the ceremony will jump one in Lao Gu dancing member. 虽然那些动作在邵玄看来很滑稽,但这样一份殊荣,确实是部落人人都想的。在洞里的时候,邵玄就没少听那些小崽子们幻想某天自己会成为祭祀仪式上跳老古舞成员中的一员。 The strangeness that the temperament of performance could not say, the single sound sounded is very either grating, was very either sad, but these syllables about in together, were quite suitable regarding this time this scenery, making people feel that should be this, in this time this place such situation, should be such temperament rhythm. 演奏的音律说不出的怪异,单个音听起来要么很刺耳,要么很沉闷,但这些音节合在一起,对于此时此景却极为适合,让人感觉就应该是这样,在这个时间这个地点这样的场合,就应该是这样的音律节奏。 However, compares Lao Gu to dance and special temperament, Shao Xuan caring stands these children near Fire Pit. 不过,相比起老古舞和特异的音律,邵玄更在意站在火塘边的那些孩子。 Warrior when these were chosen jump around Fire Pit Lao Gu dances, the flame flame body rising to the sky in Fire Pit higher, many flame fly from there. 在那些被挑选出来的战士们绕着火塘跳老古舞的时候,火塘中的火焰焰身卷腾得更高了,很多火苗从那里飞出来。 Yes, flies. 是的,飞出来。 Sparks, bunch of flame, directly flew from Fire Pit, in airborne flutters outward. 一朵朵火花,一团团火苗,就从火塘那边直接飞了出来,在空中往外飘。 Fire Pit second flame Flying Flame! 火塘第二焱焱飞！ But to the Fire Pit recent these children, avoids without any, still respectfully stands there, whatever these flame fly the body. 而离火塘最近的那些孩子们,没有任何一个避开,依然恭恭敬敬站在那里,任由那些火苗飞到身上。 Shao Xuan stares the big eye to look at that side, after these flame fly the child body, has not burnt them, has not been burning including the clothing, melts in their bodies likely directly general. 邵玄瞪大眼睛看着那边,那些火苗飞到孩子身上之后,并没有将他们烧伤,连衣物都没有燃着,像是直接融进他们的身体里一般。 The flame that integrates are getting more and more, is following close on the change is, on some children presented the Totem Warrior unique trace gradually, moreover such trace are more along with the flame of contact, becomes more and more clear, is getting more and more perfect. 融入的火苗越来越多,紧跟着的变化是,一些孩子身上逐渐出现了图腾战士特有的纹路,而且这样的纹路随着接触的火苗越多,也变得越来越清晰,越来越完善。 The flame that seething with excitement and not only contacted has encircled near Fire Pit these witch by the child who selected, there is a border proliferation toward accumulation location, the place that Shao Xuan sits had many flame to flutter. 沸腾的火苗并不仅仅只是接触了围在火塘边的那些被巫选中的孩子,也有很多朝聚集场地的边沿扩散,邵玄坐着的地方就有不少火焰飘了过来。 Looks at more and more near flame, Shao Xuan reflectively wants to avoid, but strong self-stabilization, since other people are motionless, should not like harmful that oneself imagine. 看着越来越近的火苗,邵玄反射性地想躲避,不过还是强自镇定下来,既然其他人都不动,应该并不像自己想象的那么有害。 Truly, after flame contact, Shao Xuan only feels very comfortable warm feeling, has not actually burnt the feeling. 确实,火苗接触之后,邵玄只感受到一股很舒服的暖意,却并没有灼伤感。 Then Shao Xuan has felt relieved, stares at that side Fire Pit to continue to look that has not managed the flame that more and more flies. Near Fire Pit these children, are this year luckiest people, they will obtain the ability from Fire Pit Fire Seed, awakens Power of Totem. Does not know three children who in the hole comes out add in half hole Mo Er of person to awaken successfully. 这下邵玄放心了,盯着火塘那边继续看,没管越来越多飞过来的火苗。火塘边的那些孩子,都是这一年最幸运的人,他们将从火塘的火种中获得能力,觉醒图腾之力。不知道洞里出来的三个孩子加半个洞里人的莫尔能不能成功觉醒。 Is looking that stood lowers the sound to call his name in Shao Xuan nearby slaughter rapidly. 正看着,站在邵玄旁边的屠压低声音急促地叫了他的名字。 „...... Ah'Xuan! Ah'Xuan!” “阿……阿玄！阿玄！” „What?” Shao Xuan recovers, the line of sight puts aside from Fire Pit, actually the discovery surrounding child looks like damn looks at himself generally. “什么？”邵玄回过神来,视线从火塘那边移开,却发现周围的孩子都像见鬼一般看着自己。 „How?” Shao Xuan doubts. Looked a moment ago is enthralled, periphery has not paid attention. “怎么了？”邵玄疑惑。刚才看得太入神,没注意周围。 Nearby several children hurry to draw back, still panic-stricken looks at Shao Xuan. 旁边的几个小孩都赶忙退开,依然惊恐地看着邵玄。 The slaughter swallows the saliva, said: „You...... You......” 屠咽了咽唾沫,道:“你……你着了……” „What?” Shao Xuan somewhat is blurry, what words that this spoke? I what I? “着什么？”邵玄还有些迷糊,这说的什么话？我着什么了我？ „You...... Was burning......” “你……烧着了……” You were reading, if there are! 你正在阅读,如有！
