Back Off, Let Me Come

"What are you looking at?" Gong Xiqiu saw her thinking, "If you don't understand anything, I can tell you now."

The genealogy is the inheritance of the entire Gongxi clan.

It will be handed over to Gong Xi Lai in the future.

When Gongxi came, he asked, "Why is there Jimo family?"

As a matrilineal clan, both men and women will naturally follow the Gongxi clan, but there is also the Jimo clan on the family tree, which means that different surnames can also be included in the family tree. It is strange that there is no third surname. Could it be that the Gongxi clan has always been married to the Jimo clan?

"Jimo clan? Oh, you mean the high priest."

"High Priest?"

Gong Xiqiu said: "Our clan believes in gods. Every year on the birthdays of gods and other important festivals, we hold family gatherings, usually presided over by the high priest. Each generation will elect a successor to the high priest to inherit 'Jimo'. "

He continued: "I heard that the high priest is the only person who can communicate with the gods, but some gods are nagging..."

This role has a special status among the Gongxi tribe. He listens to the oracle and conveys it to the tribe. The clan chief and the high priest usually make decisions on matters within the clan. If the two disagree with each other, the respected elders of the clan will vote to ensure the operation.

The Gongxi people love singing and dancing.

It is also because the high priest said that the gods like singing, dancing and vocal music the most.

Speaking of this——

Gongxi Qiu also told his sworn sister: "When you have children in the future, remember to go to the central altar of the tribe and give it a try. Every high priest is selected by the gods. Alas, the Gongxi tribe suffered genocide, which may have something to do with the high priest. Bar……"

In this regard, he is still very superstitious.

"Is the high priest a traitor?"

Gong Xiqiu shook his head: "That's not the case."

The high priest will become a traitor, and the whole clan will be in trouble.

only--

"...my generation was exterminated before the candidate for the high priest appeared. The previous generation, the one next to my mother, was said to have died of illness. The previous generation seemed to have gone out to do business, and his name was suddenly crossed out in the genealogy. Lose……"

"Most of the clan members believe that he died unexpectedly."

"But there are also voices saying he has given up his faith."

The high priest must be the most pious person in the clan.

Use the special abilities given by the gods to protect the clan. Once you abandon your faith, your name will naturally be crossed out.

However, this example has never been seen in the two hundred years of Gongxi people's hidden history, and this speculation is untenable.

"The High Priest is very important to our clan. Many years ago, there was a time when a clan member went out and brought disaster to the clan. You may have heard of the Wu Gu disaster, which was caused by that guy... that time too We relied on the oracle's warning to escape disaster. Our generation is not so lucky."

The candidate for the new high priest has not been selected, and the adult has experienced accidents one after another. The previous high priest who has retired long ago has no choice but to give up his retirement career and preside over important occasions such as the birthday of the gods. After all, as I get older, some things are beyond my control.

For example, when it comes to listening to the oracle, the time is not right.

Gong Xiqiu had dreamed of replacing him since he was very young.

Because the dancing posture of the high priest with white beard and hair is really ugly.

If he does, he will definitely be the most handsome boy in the whole family!

God’s new favorite!

Gong Xilai's attention was not elsewhere.

"Isn't this brother's biological father?"

Actually replaced it with "the one next to my mother".

Gong Xiqiu explained: "Well... In order to avoid problems with newborns caused by people being too closely related, some adult women in our tribe can choose to marry within the tribe, or they can choose to leave the tribe and go outside to look for men they like. "

"Bring it back?" Gong Xi came and asked.

"No, bring the child back after you give birth. Just men from foreign races. Most of them have evil intentions."

Gong Xilai: "..."

She seems to know why there are so many tribesmen who don't have their spouse's name next to them. This is how co-authors work.

Gong Xiqiu said: "My brother should be the child of the former high priest and my mother. But something happened to him, so my mother, with the encouragement of my uncle, went out to look for a candidate and got me. My mother's husband may not be me. biological father."

Half-mother and half-father are quite common in the clan.

Gong Xilai: "..."

"Well, if the first two high priests were here, maybe our clan could not avoid annihilation, but could also reduce casualties." Gong Xiqiu's eyes showed a bit of sadness, "The clan was attacked by a powerful enemy, and the old priests are getting older. The means used by the clan to defend themselves against the enemy were not able to be used to their full potential, so the clan members were unable to escape in time, and there were traitors, so the entire clan lost their lives..."

Gong Xilai could only comfort him: "Everything is over."

"Yeah, it's all over..."

Gong Xiqiu is not a person who likes to dwell on the past. He has to look forward and wait for his enemies to kill him before talking about anything else.

This--

It's almost done.

Gong Xiqiu hoped that Gong Xilai would have more children. As long as one of them could be appointed by the gods as the heir to the high priest, the safety of the clan would be enough to protect itself.

It's just that this depends too much on luck. The selection not only depends on the gods' preferences, but also tests the character of the chosen person.

Only a heartfelt, devout and firm belief can truly impress the God of service and gain His protection.

If your character is not strong...

Even the Gongxi clan...

I couldn't wait for a new generation of high priests for decades.

"It's getting late. Alai, go to bed first. I'll pack my bags tomorrow and I'll send my confidants to take you to the clan."

There are some things at home, so I started coding very late, alas...
