Chapter 182: Creating Inheritance(1/2)
Wuwen has a trace of writing, but has no connection with the language of daily communication and belongs to a mysterious inheritance system alone.
These rune turns or dots in the song are not pictographic, but are like they come from the movement trajectory of clouds, thunder, mountains and rivers, stars and some objects or the growth of plants.
Gods represent the power of nature, they have no shape, but they dominate everything.
The witch inherits mysterious power through these strange symbols and word of mouth.
The little witch remembers many witch symbols and many congratulations, but they are almost rote memorized and do not know the true meaning of their representation. Most of the time, they learn through the graphics and symbols recorded by the great witches in the caves of all ages. The scepter has become the identity and symbol of a witch and does not have the true inheritance content.
Xu Chen asked the little witch to slowly write these runes on the pottery board with charcoal strips.
Soon half an hour passed, and the little witch filled three pottery boards based on her memory.
These symbols are no less than Tianshu for Xu Chen. He was confused when he sat next to him and looked at them. He could only feel that one was better.
Seeing the little witch thinking hard, she finally let out a sigh of relief and carefully put down the charcoal strips.
"End?"
"Um!"
Xu Chen was used to naturally reaching out to touch the little witch's head, rubbing it a few times before feeling something was wrong, so he quickly smiled and took his hand back and said, "Keep it confidential, don't tell anyone, understand?"
"I know!"
The little witch nodded slightly and stood up, her cheeks lowered her head and did not dare to look at Xu Chen.
"You go out first!" Xu Chen nodded with a smile, and the little witch quickly carried her skirt out.
The straw curtain hanging outside the door moved slightly, and a figure quickly walked away in panic.
Xu Chen curled his lips slightly.
The little mother savage was monitoring him again, but after being scolded by mother Ba several times because she was jealous and did something wrong, she no longer dared to offend her in person.
However, after the witch congratulations meeting and the identity of the little witch was officially revealed, perhaps she would no longer have to worry, and she might be afraid of it.
After all, offending witches is not enough to have the courage, and they may face punishment by God. If you think about it, you will feel terrified. Maybe she will be out of tune with her aunt.
In the next few days, Xu Chen focused on starting to engrave words on the staff.
This is not difficult, but it is very cumbersome.
The main reason is that there are no good lettering tools. The wood of this wooden stick is very hard and has strong elasticity. The copper knife that is too soft is basically not used. You can only use animal bones, stone pieces, and animal teeth to compete slowly.
Xu Chen did not carve all the witch's symbols written by the little witch, but chose to carve some of them, and also carve dozens of pictographic characters he created. Finally, he gently tapped the four words "Tao Dao and Natural" on the gold at the handshake position with a stone knife and copper hammer.
It took five days to engrave the letters.
Finally, it took another two days to mix several brightly colored pigments such as cinnabar, carbon black, malachite powder, etc., and mix them into several different colors of paint. All the text symbols of the wooden part are filled with different colors and scraped them flat. After drying, they are carefully polished and smoothed with sharpening stones.
At this point, the new Great Witch Scepter, which took half a month, was completed.
At this time, the scepter could no longer see any trace of the original and crude wild wooden stick.
The gold-inlaid jade is colorful, covered with colorful symbols and words. The golden handle at the handshake is bright and mysterious. The dragon head is open and the claws are ferocious and domineering, and the golden light is shining brightly.
On the forehead of the dragon head, there is also a large word "Witch" engraved, filled with cinnabar paint, which looks extremely eye-catching.
Xu Chen called the little witch to his bedroom again and gave her the completed scepter to watch.
“Wow~~”
The little witch lost the last time's fear. When she saw this new scepter covered with text, she showed the excitement and surprise of a little girl for the first time, and her eyes were covered with little stars and exclaimed in surprise.
"Is this...Moxie Gaga?"
The little witch took the heavy and dazzling new witch scepter with a mysterious look, and carefully turned and looked carefully several times. Finally, she pointed to the word "Witch" on the dragon head and asked curiously.
"Witch!" Xu Chen explained with a smile.
"Wu Ga!" The little witch suddenly realized.
"From then on, this scepter will be passed down by you!" Xu Chen nodded.
The little witch's mood slowly calmed down. She gently touched the word "Witch" on the dragon head, gestured with her hands and wrote it lightly several times, then picked up the charcoal strips and wrote it down on the ceramic board.
This is a brand new word created by Xu Chen, which has never appeared before.
"Do you know what the witch means?" Xu Chen asked softly.
"Moga!" the little witch shook her head.
"The arc above represents the sky...the horizontal below represents the earth...the vertical in the middle represents the connection between the sky and the earth...the two people on both sides represent the witches of different tribes...they receive the revelation and blessings of the gods of heaven and earth through sacrifices..."
Xu Chen pointed to the word "Wu" in the style of small seal script and explained it in a stroke.
"I am Wu, and you are Wu Ga too!"
The little witch may have understood it, or maybe she didn't understand it, but she still looked at Xu Chen with a very admiration.
"No, I'm not a witch..."
Xu Chen picked up the charcoal strips and quickly wrote the word "Wang" on the ceramic plate.
These two words are similar, but they don’t look like them. The little witch looked confused for a long time.
"The arc above represents the sky...the horizontal below represents the earth...the vertical in the middle represents the connection between heaven and earth...and the horizontal in the middle is me..."
Xu Chen pointed at Wang Yishu and explained carefully.
"You...gaha?" The little witch was even more confused.
"Whether the king is the greatest, the one who has been blessed by the gods, will lead all tribes to live in big houses so that everyone will not be hungry, wear clothes, and be treated with injuries, and you will no longer have to endure hunger!"
The little witch was still confused, but she remembered the word "King" firmly, and wrote the word "King" behind the witch he had just written, and then looked at Xu Chen with excitement: "You...Witch King Gaga!"
Xu Chen's face was dark in an instant, and his skin twitched and he didn't know how to explain.
Fortunately, I didn't become the Lich King.
Therefore, I could only breathe a long breath of turbid air and nodded seriously: "Yes, I am the King of the Witches, and I will be the King from now on, and you will be my Witch!"
"Good!" The little witch showed a happy smile on her face for the first time.
Outside the door, a girl covered her mouth and ran away crying.
...
The full moon night in September is coming as scheduled.
The annual witch congratulations will be held again.
I don’t know if the news of the death of the Great Witch spread to other tribes.
But the Ba people prepared for this conference for a long time.
There were a lot more people going there this time, not only more than a dozen Ba men and women, but also the little witch and seven or eight Wu people who defected.
The mother had already brought back the news last time, and the Ba people would not pursue the past. Therefore, although these people were still a little nervous, they were not as scared as they were when they first came.
In order to completely solve this problem, Ah's mother told the U tribe at that time, and the Ba tribe was willing to exchange pottery for these people, so this time she brought a lot of pottery.
The Wu tribe and the group of people are now completely integrated with the Ba tribe. After more than two months of getting along, the atmosphere is very harmonious. After knowing the real identity of the little witch, Mother Ba's attitude towards all the Wu tribe people has also made a big turn of 180 degrees. From the beginning, the coldness of the beginning quickly became equal enthusiasm.
Eat together, work together, and sleep together, there is no slightest neglect or discrimination at the moment.
After more than two months of unified training, more than a dozen Wu people were divided into two groups, like the Ba people, archers and spearmen, and were under the command of the two second lieutenants, Ju and Mo. In this way, the subordinates of Feng, the lieutenant general, finally had a platoon.
All men are now equipped with unified armor, officers' rattan leather armor, archers' rattan leather armor, spearmen's rattan armor, and all weapons are gradually built. The overall appearance has been greatly improved, and they are full of energy and can basically be obeyed.
In order to participate in this witch congratulations, Xu Chen also asked the women to make two other flags.
On one side is the flag of the Ba tribe, with a green flying snake painted on it.
The other side is written with the word "Big".
He officially upgraded from a flag bearer to a flag officer, responsible for leading two Ba teenagers to hold three flags.
Gu is still a trumpeter, responsible for bragging about horns. After coming back this time, Xu Chen plans to make a few more numbers and upgrade him to the commander.
All the women who came to attend the meeting also changed into clean and tidy embroidered skirts and their hair was neatly combed.
The one who changes the most in the entire team is undoubtedly the little witch.
Under Xu Chen's arrangement, Mu Ba brought a few skillful women from the tribe to make a special set of big witch dresses for her according to Xu Chen's design.
In order to reflect the mystery and nobility of the witch, this set of clothes is embroidered with colorful threads and various patterns and witch symbols.
There is also a robe and cloak dyed blue-gray outside.
Turn the cape up and cover it on your head, which looks unique and has a very mysterious feeling.
The newly made wizard scepter was temporarily installed in a long cloth pocket and was not held directly in the hand.
The day before the full moon, all the luggage was ready and a group of people were ready to go.
Twenty men were divided into two teams, carrying loads, carrying baskets, holding bows and arrows, holding three flags, escorting them in front and back.
A group of women were sandwiched in the middle, carrying baskets and rattan baskets, which were filled with heavy pottery and linen.
Xu Chen and the little witch were caught in it, stepping on the sunshine of late autumn with the melodious sound of trumpets, heading towards the entrance of the valley along the dry river beach.
"It would be great if the pony could ride it, but it's a pity that it's too small!"
