Chapter 1048 Uninvited guest!
The guardian god chose to descend upon the tribe and grant them all kinds of incredible abilities, which of course were not given for nothing.
Every month the tribe needs to make sacrifices to the guardian god.
This sacrifice is flesh and blood.
After the guardian god absorbs these flesh and blood, he will become stronger and the abilities he bestows will also be enhanced.
But on the other hand, if it fails to absorb enough blood and flesh sacrifices every month, it will become weaker and weaker.
Once the patron saint chooses a tribe, not only can the tribe not change the patron saint, but the patron saint himself cannot change the tribe again.
This is equivalent to two-way binding.
Unless all the people in the tribe are dead, the guardian god can continue to look for the next tribe.
The Moshan tribe is so weak in the entire Tianque star that it cannot be any weaker.
There were only a hundred people, most of whom were old, weak, sick and disabled.
Honestly, I can't even kneel down to express my gratitude to be chosen by the patron saint. I really have no room to complain.
Just as Mo Shan was sighing, Asu stood up.
"Chief, if it really doesn't work, let's go to Yaoshan with Ah Qing to collect herbs."
At this time, someone else echoed.
"Yes, I heard that the Beiling Tribe and the Xiyun Tribe are going to go to war, and they are buying up all kinds of herbs. The prices of these herbs are much higher than usual."
"With the abilities bestowed upon us by the guardian god, we should be able to go to Yaoshan and find a lot of medicinal herbs."
"When the time comes, we will exchange all these herbs for animal meat. I think we will be able to gather all the sacrifices soon, right?"
"You think too simply." Mo Shan frowned.
"Ah Qing was lucky today, so he was able to collect so many herbs, but the Medicine Mountain is not safe either, there are wild beasts everywhere."
"Even if we have more people, if we run into a level 2 or higher wild beast, it can crush us like ants."
"There are only 30 or 40 young and strong men in our tribe. If even one person is missing, it will be a huge blow to our tribe."
"Let's put the matter of going to Yaoshan to collect herbs on hold for now."
"I'll think of other ways."
After finishing speaking, Mo Shan's deep and majestic eyes slowly turned to Ah Qing, and he said seriously:
"Ah Qing, you must remember what I just said firmly in your heart."
"You sneaked off to Yaoshan alone today. As the clan leader, I should punish you."
"Do you know how much of a blow it would be to our tribe and your mother if you died?"
"Your life is not yours alone."
"But you brought back a lot of herbs, so you made up for it."
"Don't act alone next time, got it?"
"But, Chief, you also said that that was a time when we were unlucky." Ah Qing was a little unwilling.
"Isn't the ability given to us by our patron saint 'luck'?"
"So far, we have not suffered a direct attack from wild beasts. Perhaps this is the guardian god blessing us."
"So, clan leader, with this ability, we can indeed go to Yaoshan to collect herbs..."
Before Ah Qing could finish her words, she was interrupted by Mo Shan.
"Okay, Ah Qing, I understand what you mean."
Mo Shan sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly: "Ah Qing, why don't you understand?"
"Although the patron saint has granted us the ability to be lucky, it is not a reason for us to take blind risks."
"If you rely too much on so-called luck, you will suffer a great loss sooner or later."
"Only absolute strength can provide confidence."
"Don't ever act alone again, got it?"
Ah Qing knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, so he could only nod and say in a low voice:
"Chief, I understand."
Mo Shan smiled and said, "Okay, let's repair the damaged house together."
As soon as he finished speaking, blazing bonfires were seen burning in every corner of the tribe. The jumping flames illuminated the surrounding darkness, making people no longer feel that it was pitch black in front of their eyes.
After hearing Mo Shan's instructions, everyone nodded in agreement, then quickly took action, each performing their duties.
Some people carried thick wood to reinforce the structure of the house; some people took soft thatch and carefully filled the holes and cracks; and some people were busy shuttling between the houses, delivering tools and materials.
For a moment, the whole tribe became busy.
Time passed by minute by minute, the night gradually deepened, but people's enthusiasm for work did not diminish in the slightest.
Finally, after a long night of hard work, the originally dilapidated thatched huts have been basically repaired and look brand new.
Looking at the results of their own work, everyone's face was filled with a tired but satisfied smile.
At this moment, the eastern sky gradually turned pale, and a red sun slowly rose. The warm sunlight sprinkled on the land, as if covering the entire tribe with a layer of golden gauze.
This means a new day is about to begin.
However, just as everyone was happily thinking that they could finally have a good rest, the arrival of an uninvited guest instantly broke the original tranquility of the tribe.
"Roar!"
I saw a black shadow rushing towards me in the distance like lightning, the speed was so fast that it was jaw-dropping.
As the black shadow got closer, its outline gradually became clearer, and it turned out to be a huge lion!
The lion's body is covered with dense red scales, as if burning with flames.
Its thick and powerful limbs are like four iron pillars, supporting its huge body, and every step it takes causes the ground to tremble slightly.
The most eye-catching thing is its extremely sharp claws, which are still stained with undried blood and emit a pungent smell of blood, which makes people shudder.
A bald man was sitting on the lion's back.
He was not wearing animal skins like Mo Shan and the others, but was wearing a silk shirt of extremely high-quality texture and soft and smooth to the touch.
The man's face was clearly defined, as if it had been chiseled with a knife or an axe, but his eyes were as cold as ice, revealing a chilling chill that made one shudder.
At this moment, he was riding steadily on the lion's back, galloping towards the Moshan tribe at lightning speed.
After the people in the tribe noticed something unusual, they acted quickly, tightly grasped various weapons in their hands, and entered a state of alert with nervous expressions.
Ah Qing didn't care about his mother's obstruction at this time, and rushed out of the thatched hut with a tattered axe in his hand.
However, the moment they saw the man's face clearly, everyone seemed to be under a spell, their movements stopped abruptly, and then they all slowly put down their weapons at the same time.
