Chapter 225 The Seal of the Witch King
After the old witch and the twin little witch finished their respective witch seals, Xu Chen turned around and took out a square golden seal.
It's probably several pounds of heavy weight.
He placed the seal in the charcoal fire for a few minutes, then wrapped his hands in animal skin and covered it directly in a blank space in the animal skin deed book.
There was only a sizzling sound, and a burnt smell of animal skin burning.
After a while, Xu Chen took away the golden seal, and saw a hollow black mark that was half a palm-sized, which appeared on the animal skin, which was the four big words "The Seal of the Witch King".
"Swish~"
Xu Chen put the golden seal into a pottery bowl filled with water to cool down, then picked up the animal skin deed book covered with four different seals, looked left and right for a while, and then smacked his lips and showed a pretty satisfied smile.
The content is not important, the ceremony is very important.
Just as primitive people were accustomed to gathering through some grand sacrificial activities, this was both a communication activity and a spiritual belief, which increased cohesion between the tribe and the tribe in the name of the gods.
These rituals have a huge role in the development of mankind, and finally gradually become a grand festival for spiritual sustenance.
Just like the Chinese Spring Festival, from ancient sacrificial worship to feudal dynasties, and then to holidays for reunion of relatives. Although the mythological color has been fading, it has never been able to change this ancient inheritance, and thus formed the unique cultural customs of China.
Every Spring Festival, no matter how far away, tired, hard, or poor people are, they will rush home. They migrate on a large scale just to go home and have a meal. If they don’t do it, they may feel empty and lonely in their hearts and reluctant to leave them all year round.
Xu Chen wanted to use this sacred ritual to sublimate the spiritual binding force of this contract.
If the contract signed by a group of witches cannot be followed and executed, then the only thing left is bloody and violent means.
Try not to fight with martial arts if you can fight with others.
This is Xu Chen’s most simple idea and the best way to meet the interests of all tribes at present.
Because there are too few people, they can't stand the trouble.
This time the friction between the Cang tribe and the Cha tribe led to the participation of the Gonghuo tribe. The number of casualties on both sides exceeded 60. Although most of the injured were cured, most of them would be cured, but more than ten people died. In addition, some left lifelong disabilities and no longer had the ability to hunt, almost becoming useless people.
This will not only weaken the tribe's strength, but also put a heavy burden on the tribe.
The injured cannot hunt and need someone to take care of. In the current state of lack of food and clothing, it is tantamount to injustice.
Therefore, war is an act that needs to be avoided as much as possible.
If a black-hearted time traveler who has been influenced by the five thousand years of Chinese civilization still fights with the primitive people with the most brutal and rude means, it is not bravery or fearless, but stupidity.
After the signing of the contract book, Xu Chen summoned all the men and women of the Gonghuo tribe and the Cha tribe who were working. Under the watch of all the Ba people, he read the content of the contract book in public, and then the old witch translated it.
These contract terms were actually basically formed before leaving the Gonghuo Clan, and they had already spread in the Gonghuo Clan. In the past few days after coming to the Ba tribe, the old witch would go to the kiln factory to communicate and talk to a group of tribe members every morning and evening. These contents are no longer a secret. The contract has been officially announced and is displayed to everyone, with the purpose of making them fully accept this reality and not having any unnecessary thoughts.
Sure enough, these contents did not cause too much reaction between the men and women of the two tribes, but they quickly calmed down after a slight commotion.
After announcing the contract, Xu Chen officially announced that all the selected women and the Wu people who had defected to form a new family, and that his mother would serve as the leader of the new family.
In order to appease these women, Xu Chen said that the second phase of the courtyard being built will become a place for the new family to live and treat all the treatment equally with the Ba people.
As soon as the news was heard, many women who were still crying suddenly forgot their sadness excitedly, and a group of Wu tribe men couldn't help but burst into cheers of ghosts and wolves howling.
As a group of outsiders, although they do not lack food, drink, housing and use, and their various treatments are almost the same as those of the Yeba people, they do not have the right to mating because they are not men who communicate through formal marriages. They have always felt inferior in the Ba people. They do the most tiring and heaviest work on weekdays, just to get food and clothing, and are even more afraid of fighting for mating rights and are driven out by the Ba people.
Now Xu Chen asked them to form a new family with these women who had been snatched from now on. From then on, they also had their own female group and could finally live a happy and beautiful life like piling.
What's more, all the people who were snatched back this time were young women, enough for them to work hard as stallions and sleep with women every night.
Seeing these Ukrainian men’s excited look, the eyes of a group of Ba men were filled with envy, jealousy and hatred, and of course they were even more eager to try.
So many young and strong young women, the elderly, weak, sick and disabled Wu tribe animals, have to end up having a good deal in the end, so they have to be a few dishes next door, Lao Wang and his family have fun together.
Anyway, they are all a tribe, and the wealth and water will not flow to outsiders' fields.
The ones who were most hurt were naturally a group of men from the Gonghuo tribe and the Cha tribe.
But at the moment, they had no choice and even dared not have the intention to resist.
Because of the three great witches, especially the scepter covered with colorful gems in the hands of the little witch in the middle, the two green big eyes were staring at them like gods.
Let everyone feel unparalleled horror.
This is an unprecedented unconventional operation.
It was completely planned by Xu Chen, and the results of conflicts and wars between tribes were completely different from those of the past.
The contract is handed over to the Ba clan witch for safekeeping until all the contract content is fulfilled, and three witches will be summoned again to announce the abandonment in public.
According to Xu Chen's request, all important resolutions of tribes and important agreements between tribes must be recorded with animal skins, and the signing and printing by both parties or three parties is considered valid. Especially when it involves war compensation and large-scale cooperative transactions, it must be determined by a contract.
If a peace agreement reached between tribes due to war, Xu Chen must also be confirmed by Xu Chen and stamped with the seal of the Witch King, otherwise the Ba people will not recognize the validity of the agreement.
The three golden witch seals obtained from the hands of the three witches are legal seals in future agreements.
Faced with this heavy golden ring, the three witches have different mentalities.
The twin sister who became the great witch of the Ba clan was indifferent because Xu Chen was by her side. Xu Chen did whatever she asked her to do. The value of her existence was to help Xu Chen manage all the witches of the tribes and be responsible for stamping them in the future.
The twin sister was obviously excited and curious about this witch seal with exquisite workmanship and magical power given by Xu Chen. She wore it on her slender fingers and turned around and watched carefully. This was an unprecedented experience, as if it had a magic power, which filled her with the desire to stamp it.
As for the old witch, she loves and hates this golden seal ring, and she feels extremely complicated.
This ring is a magical object she has never seen before. With it, she will gain an important ability she has never had before, that is power.
Although she cannot understand the word power and does not know where this ability comes from, her decades of life experience have accumulated to her that this power will be an authority that transcends spiritual beliefs, because every time it is covered, it will form an important contract with the constraints of the gods. All tribes that recognize it must strictly abide by it, otherwise it will have unpredictable consequences.
Because through this incident, she had developed a deep fear of Xu Chen.
This Ba teenager is not only magical, but also extremely intelligent. He never follows common sense when doing things. Instead, he has a wild idea. He also innovates unpredictable plans for everything and arranges them in an orderly manner.
It’s like this contract. It seems that he had completely thought about it before he arrived at the Gonghuo Clan. Everything he did is under his control and planning.
This magical ability to control everything is what she fears the most and cannot get rid of.
If you accept this witch seal ring, the Gonghuo Clan will have to accept the leadership of the Ba tribe in the future. Even if she dies, the new witch will still inherit this witch seal and will never be able to escape the control and influence of the Ba tribe.
But whether she accepts it or not, this witch seal will play an increasingly important role over time, becoming one of the most important items for the inheritance and development of the tribe, and even more important than the Great Witch Scepter.
Because in the past few days of the Ba tribe, she had had many exchanges and learning with the twin little witches, and also figured out a conflict that happened to fight for the great witches after the death of the great witches.
The reason inside is confusing.
But in fact, only those who are adult witches truly understand that the so-called divine revelation often has great randomness, and the oracle verification also has great uncertainty. It only makes these explanations seem more conducive to the development of the tribe based on the needs of different periods.
As for the true meaning of the gods, no witch dares to say that they can guess accurately.
Because these revelations come suddenly and even meaningless.
To put it bluntly, it all depends on my confusion.
As for whether it is right or wrong, only God knows.
The most important thing about the witch's ability lies in the life experience accumulated from generation to generation, rather than trying to understand God's revelation. Knowledge is the most powerful power of witches.
Therefore, in front of a magical human like Xu Chen, who is super smart and has a lot of strange knowledge, the knowledge reserves of these witches seem pale and powerless, and basically irresistible, let alone two underage little witches, who are so young as silly children. If they weren't for their identity as the inheritor of the great witch, it would be completely meaningless.
The selection of inheritors seems extremely mysterious to the tribe, but in the eyes of old people with rich knowledge and experience, it is just an opportunity to appear in order to continue the inheritance.
Choosing one or another does not have much impact. The most important thing is the nature and wisdom of the heir. It must be steady and simple, full of respect for the gods and a broad mind of fairness and justice, and willing to devote one's life to the reproduction and survival of the tribe.
Now Xu Chen suddenly appeared in a world as a transcendent witch, claiming to be a witch king who had never appeared before, and granting them a golden witch seal from these different tribes. The meaning of this is very obvious, that is, he wants to use this method to create a completely independent inheritance system outside of witches.
This system has nothing to do with faith, but instead has a strong binding force that is completely different from the fair relationship between witches. The witches who use the witch seal to control all tribes abide by the rules he sets, and also put this rule above the inheritance of witches.
In other words, Xu Chen can use the inheritance of this golden witch seal to replace any real witch inheritance. Once a tribe of witches do not obey the command, he can deprive the power granted by the witch seal at any time and hand it over to another person to take charge.
Especially when the effectiveness of the Golden Witch Seal has been recognized by all tribes.
The twin little witch was ignorant of the world and obeyed his words. All tribesmen blindly believed in the wisdom and prestige of the witch and would not question any arrangements made by the witch.
Therefore, under this completely unequal wisdom and status, a system of power generated by the power of witches will eventually surpass witches and exist.
This is what makes the old witch most afraid of.
But fear was useless because she had no ability or room to resist at the moment, and there was nothing to do except accept it.
This is Xu Chen's naked plot.
He was not afraid of being seen by the old witch at all.
Just like when he first went to the Wu tribe, he didn't plan to share the methods of making bows and arrows and pottery with the Wu tribe for free.
This is all he is testing, testing the reactions and bottom lines of these tribes and witches, so as to slowly develop the next arrangements and plans.
He didn't have the confidence to test the great witch of the Wu tribe last time.
But this time he was very confident in facing the great witch of the Gonghuo Clan.
