Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The funeral ceremony of Gang Yan Tuo Shi, the first elder of the Manya tribe, was very grand, solemn and expensive, and all ancient etiquette was followed meticulously.  In the past hundred years, no one from the many orc tribes in the hinterland of the Abrahamic Desert has held a funeral ceremony of this scale.  The body of Elder Gang Yan was placed on a stretcher filled with green grass and sea buckthorn flowers, and was escorted by four distinguished tribal leaders. Dun Tomad, with a stern expression, strode to the left, wearing animal skins.  Armor, with the prestigious Griffin Sword hanging on his waist; Dun Kaba walked on the right front opposite to Tomad, his footsteps and face were equally heavy, as if the haze from the sky had also fallen on his face  .  Sha Lafi from the Manya Tribe and Sha Erda from the Yewei Tribe were walking in the back. The expressions on the faces of these two tribal leaders looked a little strange, especially Sha Sha, who did not have enough prestige or qualifications to be the "Sha".  ?Rafi.  The corners of the tribal leader's mouth suddenly turned up, and then deliberately tightened, and the arm holding the stretcher trembled slightly from time to time.  The spiritual leader of Fatigal City, Aogasi Shaman, was dressed in full shaman attire and led two teams of apprentices in robes to stand on both sides of the body, chanting praises for the life of the deceased.  Prayer.  Of course, there are not so many shaman apprentices in Fatiguere City. In fact, apart from the original apprentice Uno, the Aogasi shaman only found two apprentices who had some shaman qualifications. The rest of the shaman apprentices were dressed in disguise.  They are cubs that are not yet adults.  More than 600 residents of Fatiguere City gathered in the open space by the Holy Lake to see off Elder Gang Yan, who was unanimously loved by them. Every resident's face looked melancholy and solemn.  Behind the farewell crowd, several large sacrificial drums emitted low vibrations, which seemed to come from the ground, making people feel more and more sad and unspeakable; more than a dozen bone flute players played a low and melodious melody in unison, expressing themselves to their heart's content  My heartfelt thoughts and condolences.  In addition to the members of the two tribes that jointly built Fatiguere City, several nearby barbarian orc tribes - Flatfoot, Black Teeth and Sand Scorpion also sent representatives with considerable status. Not only did they attend the funeral ceremony,  They are also preparing to hold alliance negotiations with the leaders of Fatiguere City after the ceremony.  Every orc tribe that owns an oasis regards it as a gift from the God of March. Only the most beloved tribal leaders and elders are expected to be buried in the center of the oasis after their death.  The holy lake of Fatiguere Oasis is undoubtedly a treasure among treasures. Tomad set foot in the shallows first, his hands carrying the stretcher were as steady as iron; then Don Kaba also stepped into the warm and clear lake water, and the two of them  They turned around slowly together, bent down together with the two people behind them, and slowly lowered the stretcher containing Elder Gang Yan's body into the lake.  After the four people escorting the body turned around and returned to the shore, the Aogasi shaman took two quick steps forward, stood on the lakeside, raised the bone staff in his hand, and chanted in a high-pitched and solemn tone, "The golden sun rises to the east.  In the sky on the side, a soul, an old and tired soul, knocked on a majestic and majestic door. Sonata, the great Lord of the Black Moon, asked loudly, soul, what authority do you have, how dare you disturb the silence in the daytime.  The country is quiet; what qualifications do you have to knock on the door of the Lord of the Black Moon? " "Open the door, the great Lord of the Black Moon!" After the voice of the Aogasi shaman fell, the three shaman apprentices led the others.  The cubs spoke in unison, and the sonorous and powerful replies echoed on the shores of the holy lake, "Please open the door! This old man is Gangyan Tuoshi of the Manya tribe. His prestige is immortal. He is a man of devout faith and Fati."  The last drop of blood was shed in the prosperity of Gale. He is our eternal brother and your most devout believer. He will devote his life to your sacred message." Aogashi Shaman looked up to the sky devoutly, his eyes filled with tears.  Looking straight at the endless blue sky, "Ah, you are right. This is Elder Gang Yan, our brother. He bravely faced the unreasonable pressure of the beast king's banner messenger, stood firm in his faith, and refused to betray Fati  The interests of Gale, the sacred city of God. His soul will find a place in the gem palace of the Lord of the Black Moon, holding high the golden cup together with the ancient heroes, and sipping the jade liquid that has never been seen in the world. " Many articles!  At the same time, a deep "Oh ha" came out from the throat, and the farewell crowd bowed deeply towards the body surrounded by flowers and green grass. The sounds of choking and crying suppressed the mournful playing of the bone flute, and merged with the increasingly low sound of the drum.  It becomes a tearful lament.  The people standing on the shore were even more grief-stricken. Even Dun Kaba, who had a rough personality, couldn't help lowering his eyelids and quickly wiped the corners of his eyes with his thick fingers.  But there were no tears in Tomad's eyes, they were just burning with an increasingly deep and unpredictable sharp light.  When the crying sound gradually became thinner and the Aogasi shaman raised his bone staff again and planned to perform the next water burial ceremony, Tomad suddenly took a step forward and made a stopping gesture.  "Please wait a moment, Master Shaman, the soul of Elder Gang Yan will still stay here to witness?Things.  " Aogashi Sha lowered his bone staff with a puzzled look on his face, and his sparse eyebrows furrowed. It would be a very impolite act to disturb the funeral ceremony, if the person who did not make this move was Dun Toma.  De - the person favored by the March God in his mind, this shaman will probably be furious immediately. "Sir Tuomad, is there anything more important than the smooth progress of Elder Gangyan's funeral ceremony?  ?  Sha Erda said with a puzzled tone, "Master Aogasi Shaman has opened the door to the Sonata Gem Palace of the Black Moon Lord for our brothers and sisters. Why do you want to stop it at such a critical time?"  " "Because his sorrow and indignation were too heavy, and he could not just watch the murderer send him away with a sneer in his eyes.  With such ideological baggage, Elder Gang Yan's soul cannot drink fine wine in the quiet kingdom of the Lord of the Black Moon. Instead, it will linger outside the gate of the Gemstone Palace forever.  "This is a very serious accusation. Aogashi Shaman's face immediately darkened, and his eyes were filled with blazing anger, but then it turned into deep doubts. "Beloved of the gods, you mean to kill  Is there another person who killed Elder Gang Yan?  " "No, Tanari Thunder Horn is indeed the real culprit, but there are still several doubts about the death of Elder Gang Yan, which indicate that in addition to him, there are at least one or two traitors in Fatigal as his accomplices.  " Tomad announced in a decisive tone. These words made many people exchange uneasy and indignant looks. There were traitors among the residents of Fatiguere City. No one wanted to believe this was true. If  The accusation did not come from the mouth of Tomad, who was favored by the God of March. Someone would definitely protest loudly, but now there were only whispers on his face.  Mask, not even a muscle trembled when he spoke, "Brothers from the tribe, please listen to me, Elder Gang Yan is a respectable elder, and he was also an excellent warrior when he was young.  But after all, he is old, and the strong Tanari Thunder Horn is a powerful warrior that even Don Kabbah dare not defeat" "I will only know the outcome after fighting him.  .  "Don Kaba, who was standing next to Tomad, let out a grunt of dissatisfaction, but at least he was not stupid enough to jump out and express his objection. Tomad made a comforting gesture towards Don Kaba, and then continued.  , "What surprised me was that during my duel with Tanar'ri Thunderhorn, I found that his shoulder was injured, and the injury was not serious. This is why I was able to defeat Tanar'ri Thunderhorn without any injuries.  major reasons.  There was no one else in Elder Gang Yan's tent at that time. I would like to ask you, how could Elder Gang Yan's aging body be able to severely injure the leader of the White Guards who was younger, stronger and more powerful than him?  " The crowd was silent for a while, and then a voice rang out. The voice sounded very immature and full of uncertainty, "Elder Gang Yan has very rich combat experience. Did he catch the opponent off guard?  "The person who spoke was the son of Thor - a young orc who was not yet an adult. Tomad nodded to him in approval, but there was no smile on his face. "Yes, judging from the traces of the struggle at the scene  , Elder Gangyan was indeed the first to launch the attack, so what made Tanari Lei Jiao relax his vigilance?  He walked into a tent that was completely unfamiliar to him. If he didn't know who was inside, wouldn't he be more vigilant?  " The whispers started again, this time a little louder, and they did not die down immediately. Many people were nodding their heads, agreeing with Tomad's judgment, but there were also a lot of objections. Sha? Erda  It was the one with the loudest voice of opposition who said, "Lord God's Favored One, please allow me to put forward a different view.  He shook his head repeatedly, with an expression of disapproval on his face, "I guess it was precisely because of Elder Gang Yan's age that the murderer relaxed his vigilance.  You just said that Tanari Thunderhorn is a young and outstanding warrior. Such a warrior must have a high self-esteem, and is accustomed to being careless and using his own strength to solve problems.  " Tomad cast a thoughtful glance, "This is indeed a possibility, but although Tanari Thunderhorn is young and vigorous, he is quite sophisticated in his approach.  At the same time that Elder Gang Yan was assassinated, I was also assassinated by three Roaring Warriors.  " There was a low "oh ha" sound everywhere, and many people's eyes were shining with enthusiasm. The three roaring warriors were not easy opponents to dispatch, especially they were the elite among the white tent guards of the Barbarian King's Banner. "I  When I greeted the envoys, I wore traditional shaman clothing. In other words, the envoys would only regard me as a shaman.  "Tomad continued to explain, "To deal with a shaman who is not good at close combat, he will send three roarers.Sir, how could Tanari Thunderhorn go to assassinate alone, and then walk into Elder Gangyan's tent without warning?  ¡± The breeze is blowing the green grass, the water of the Holy Lake is rippled, and the leaves of the date palm trees are rustling. Other than that, there is deathly silence all around, and even the sound of breathing can hardly be heard. ¡° I don¡¯t know.  After a while, Tomad's voice broke the silence again, "Tanari Lei Jiao would of course be unwary, because in his mind, Elder Gang Yan had just taken the herbal tea prepared by the traitor for him and should have fallen asleep.  Ripe.  " Aogasi Shaman's face suddenly changed, "Apprentice Unuo!  He turned around and yelled at the team of apprentices behind him, "You are responsible for preparing the herbal medicine, I want to explain!"  "The next moment, there was a small commotion in the apprentice team. Just as the skinny Uno wanted to escape, he was firmly grabbed by the arms and neck by the son of Thor and the other two little barbarian orcs.  After the struggle, Uno had two bruises on his face and was pushed to the ground by the three little beastmen. "It seems that there is no need to explain.  "Tomad sighed, and bowed to Aogashi Shaman with some apology. "Aogashi Shaman, I'm sorry for not telling you in advance, because I only suspected and did not confirm the identity of the traitor.  " "I won't mind your concealment, Lord Favored by God.  "Aogasi Saman returned the favor with a stern face. When he looked at Unuo, his eyes were filled with scorching anger. "Apprentice Unuo betrayed his faith and betrayed the tribe. This is all my teachings.  square.  I am going to go on a hunger strike and pray for a while until the God of March forgives my mistake.  " Tomad shook his head with a tired expression, "It's not your fault, Aogashi Shaman. You shouldn't ask for forgiveness for a fault that didn't exist in the first place.  Then he turned his gaze to Uno, who was in a state of embarrassment, with his face covered with sand and tears, "What made you choose to be a traitor?"  Uno, who else is your accomplice?  " "It was that old guy who offended me first!  Uno muttered in a vague voice, "That old guy dared to say that there was something wrong with my ointment, which caused me to lose my status and reputation as a tribal witch doctor, and the possibility of taking over as a shaman. I could only prepare some useless ointment."  I live on herbal tea" "You changed the formula of your ointment without authorization, which may kill many tribal brothers. Elder Gangyan pointed it out in order to remedy this mistake and give you a chance to change your ways.  "Tomad told him in a calm tone, and then slowly pulled out the gryphon sword from his waist and raised it above his head. "GodLord God's Favored One" This action suddenly made Uno's courage disappear.  He barely struggled to raise his head, his eyes full of fear and struggle, "Please, I don't want to die, not yet By the way, it's Sha" A roar sounded from the periphery of the crowd, "  Shah Rafi, you want to run away?  "The voice seemed to come from Dun Kaba's mouth, and then there was a burst of fighting, yelling and defending sounds. However, Tomad did not look away, but looked at Uno with a solemn expression, using a tone that was almost chanting  He opened his mouth and announced. "Sonata, Lord of the Black Moon, please judge the sins of those who kneel before me. If they are merciful, let them enter the gem palace of the quiet kingdom after atonement; if their sins must be punished, then punish them."  The soul is placed on the stake of eternal punishment!  " The blade of the Griffin Sword waved a bright and dazzling sword light in the air. Uno's begging for mercy was cut off like a knife, and his head rolled down on the yellow sand, reflecting the blood spurting out from his neck.  The blood looked particularly poignant. Tomad stared deeply at the headless corpse for a while, then swung his sword arm neatly and shook off the remaining blood on the blade. "Bring up the other traitor.  " He said in a low and cold tone, "May the souls of Elder Gang Yan who witnessed this scene be comforted, and may the God of March forgive these ugly souls.  "
