Chapter 20 Turtle Shell Divination
Chapter 20 Turtle Shell Divination
On the third day, the three little males who set out had not returned, let alone any related news. Their families were a little nervous, so they went to Hasen's house, hoping to ask the priest about the situation and ask for peace of mind.
As a priest, Hasen is actually a little tricky. He has a palm-sized tortoise shell in his hand, which was left to him by the little angel with golden fingers. He can roughly predict good and bad luck, but he can only do it up to three times a day.
This tortoise shell has not been used for a long time, because there has been no incident in the tribe for several years. I did not expect that the heavy rain would bring such a big trouble.
Not only the parents of Reagan, Scott Bud and the other three came, but also the family and friends of the missing little male Lawrence.
Father Lawrence was still pale and was being supported by Father Lawrence. He obviously wanted to come regardless of his weakness. The bamboo horse female who was troubled by the child had red and swollen eyes, guilt and pain in her eyes. better off.
Hasen looked at them and couldn't help but sighed: "Don't worry too much, the adult males of our tribe are all carefully cultivated by the tribe, and they will definitely turn danger into good fortune."
He solicited everyone's opinions, first divination about Lawrence's news, the tortoise's shell flipped several times, and it was facing up, good luck.
Lawrence's family couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and Lawrence's father was even more relaxed and limp on his male.
But Hasen's face was not relaxed, and he continued to divination the whereabouts of the three-person search and rescue team. The turtle shell spun upright for a while, and the front was facing upwards, which was also auspicious.
The others also let go of their tense expressions, and Qi Qi laughed, and Reagan's Abba tribe chief Qiang Ke said with relief: "My son never lets me down!"
After the crowd left, Hasen's brows that were originally soothing frowned again. He thought for a while and made another divination. The tortoise shell simply fell down and turned upside down.
Hasen's complexion turned pale all of a sudden, and he hurriedly called Eric, who was repairing the leaky roof outside the house in the rain: "Honey! You can go and see which houses in the tribe are near the river during the day, and tell them to pack their things and go to the river." Go to someone else's house or go to the temple to stay overnight, I'm afraid something bad will happen tonight!"
Seeing Hasen's flustered look, Eric quickly agreed, jumped off the beam and turned into a wolf to go out to do errands.
"Daddy, what's the matter?" Andy, who was watching everything at home, asked worriedly, "What does this bad omen refer to? Why are you so busy asking them to move?"
Hasen's lips turned white: "If I'm not wrong..."
That night, the rain, which had been gradually decreasing, suddenly intensified again, and the crackling of huge raindrops on the eaves was even more disturbing to people's dreams. Accompanied by the distant and near thunder, it was simply too noisy.
Roy was very energetic at night, but now he couldn't sleep at all. He broke away from Adolf's arms, ignored the other party's murmuring, got out of bed and opened the window to get some air, and then sat back on the side of the bed. Looking at the raindrops outside the window, and the lightning that suddenly illuminated the night sky.
That's the annoying sound!Roy curled his lips unconsciously. He never knew that thunderstorms were so annoying!I really don't have any sleepiness at all!
As he was thinking this way, suddenly a thunderbolt came from above, and Roy's eyes were incandescent. He closed his eyes subconsciously, but before he could react, there was another loud noise in his ear, which made Roy frowned tightly. There was a sudden tinnitus in the ears.
"Roy! Roy!" Adolf woke up suddenly from the fright. When he saw the female beside the bed, he sat up and hugged her tightly. "Roy, are you okay? I just had a dream, where did the dream come from?" There was a big explosion!"
"It's not an explosion, it's thunder." Roy opened his eyes and patted Adolf's back to calm him down. At this time, his tinnitus had subsided, so he pursed his lips and said, "I don't think this is an ordinary thunder, it seems Something bad is going to happen..."
"Thunder is already a bad thing," Adolf said seriously. "My father used to tell me stories. He said that thunder was a fight between the father and mother of thunder! At this time, please be quiet. If you talk too loudly, the father and mother of thunder will Hit us by name..."
As he spoke, Adolf's voice became quieter, and he looked left and right, as if he was afraid of being known by the gods who were thundering in the sky.
Roy had never heard of this term before, so he asked curiously, "What is the Thunder God and the Lightning Mother?"
Adolf said in surprise: "You don't even know about Thunder God and Lightning Mother?" He told Roy the story of these two gods in detail with great interest.
"Fairy?" Roy seemed to be unfamiliar with this word, he tilted his head strangely, "What is a fairy? Is it different from a god?"
Adolf's eyes widened: "You don't know about the gods?"
Roy: "..." He felt a little embarrassed.
To be despised by a stupid big man with an IQ of six or seven years old...but he really didn't know.
Adolf finally felt that he was better than Roy, and he gave him some common sense about gods: "...these are gods, and even the kitchen is managed by gods."
Roy's worldview was refreshed by the gods, but he didn't believe in it like Adolf did. Instead, he held a dubious attitude: "...then why didn't I see the gods when I was cooking?"
"Ordinary people can't see gods." Adolf sincerely believes that gods exist, so he explained seriously, "Although they can't see them, they will show us miracles, such as... last time I And Daddy made the Beast God angry, and he threw small stones on our heads."
"..." Roy was speechless. If this is a god, then there is nothing to be afraid of. "This is a god, and it is quite powerful. I don't know what miracles they will perform..."
As soon as the words fell, there was a loud bang in the distance. Adolf shook Roy reflexively, and said hesitantly: "We just talked too loudly...Did we attract Thunder God and Mother Lightning?"
Roy didn't answer, he gave Adolf a soft "shh", then turned his body and listened carefully for a while, his expression became serious: "Oops."
"What's wrong?" Adolf asked in confusion.
"I heard the sound of splashing water, it was very violent," Roy pursed his lips, "you heard it too, right? If you guessed right, the dam in the upper reaches of the river broke."
"What do you mean? What is a dam?" Adolf didn't know the word dam, but he knew that something was wrong when he saw Roy's face. "What will happen if it collapses?"
"The river floods, which may cause floods, but fortunately, the trees around our tribe are dense, so it shouldn't be a big problem," Roy explained, "but the houses downstream may be washed away. I don't know the people in the houses. Will it survive?"
"Then what should we do?" Adolf was a little at a loss, and could only hug Roy tightly, "Our house won't be washed down, right?"
"Our home is not downstream, nor close to the river," Roy said. "The best way now is to stay at home."
The force of nature is irresistible, the thunder and lightning outside the house are still flickering, and the sound of raindrops hitting the roof is still so annoying, but the only quiet around is the breathing of Roy and Adolf.
Adolf couldn't help opening his mouth: "Then..."
"It's okay." As if knowing what Adolf was going to ask, Roy patted his head and said, "Hasson's house is not downstream, so go to sleep if you're okay, tomorrow will be fine, and it's a new day."
Adolf was still a little worried when he heard the words, but it was useless to worry now. He hugged his female tightly, lay down and prepared to sleep, and finally fell into a deep sleep overwhelmed by sleepiness.
The next day, it rained continuously.
Roy and Adolf went out in the rain to Hasson's house, only to find that they were not at home.
"Where are daddy and the others?" Adolf was a little anxious, "They haven't been washed away, have they?"
"The house hasn't collapsed yet, so don't worry too much," Roy calmed down, "If I'm not mistaken...it's either in the temple or downstream."
Roy and Adolf went downstream first, and as expected, several wooden houses in the downstream were knocked down, surrounded by scattered logs, and some logs even rushed in with the ebb and flow of the river. into the river.
But there were no orcs around. Roy rubbed his chin and guessed in his heart that Hasson probably knew the situation in advance and warned the orcs so that they could escape the danger.
"Roy! Roy, come here!" Adolf suddenly called him loudly. Roy entered without knowing it. He responded and walked over, only to find that there was a huge brown bear lying in disorder in front of Adolf. It was covered in mud. Not to mention, he still stuck his tongue out with his eyes closed, as if he was dead.
"This is... the prey from the flood?" Roy asked hesitantly, "How do you move it back?"
Adolf was very surprised when he heard the words, he opened his eyes and looked at him: "Roy! This is not for food! This is a male of the bear clan!"
"..." Roy was silent for a moment, then admitted helplessly, "Well, this is the first time I've seen the Bear Clan."
"It's okay," Adolf patted Roy's head comfortingly, "I will show you more races in the future, but they are not as strong as me, so it's not worth watching."
Roy was silent again, and changed the subject: "...Then is he still alive?"
After hearing this, Adolf raised his foot and kicked the brown bear. The brown bear shook and its tongue twitched. Seeing this, Adolf concluded: "He's still alive, so I said how could the orc male die so easily!"
Roy: "..." He didn't know what to say, so he sighed silently.
Adolf walked around the big brown bear, struggling for a long time, and finally dragged one of the bear's feet with his disgusted hand, and took Roy with the other hand, and happily walked towards the temple.
The unlucky brown bear was dragged all the way, dragged a slight depression on the ground, and because the ground was too bumpy, his teeth shook up and down from time to time, the poor man almost knocked his body in a coma. Tongue bit off.
