The outsiders had already left, and people in the tribe had stopped everything in their hands, following the Shaman and the Chief to the border to welcome the team back. Please support our original translation in wangmamaread.
Some people didn’t know what happened at the beginning. After they talked to each other, they couldn’t help but get excited.
“They are ancestors!”
“What do ancestors look?”
“They must be strong and talented!”
“I heard that people who have worshipped the ancestors can get the blessing from the ancestors! A soldier I know has worshipped before, and then ancestors helped him change danger into safety several times when he was hunting.”
“Have ancestors been found before?”
“Yes, it’s Shao Xuan who found ancestors that time.”
“How about this time?”
“It’s also Shao Xuan who found ancestors.”
“…He is indeed the Elder…”

For the Flaming Horn tribe, even if the ancestors’ remains were rotten, they were still significant and inviolable.
It was a pity that they did not see the ancestors and only saw three big “boxes”, which were carried by a dozen of people.
“Welcome the ancestors back!”
The Shaman and the Chief took the lead to kneel down.
Thousands of people at the border all kneeled down. Even children who didn’t understand anything followed the adults. Without being mischievous, they had a very strange feeling – somewhat heavy and a little excited.
When Shao Xuan brought back the remains of the ancestors from the King Stone Worm cave, a ceremony was held in the tribe to cremate the ancestors. This time the ceremony would be similar to the previous one, but it would not be held immediately.
Being protected by the bone ornament, the seven ancestors’ bodies would not rot quickly. The Shaman placed them in a room of the stone house, and he did not leave the house for several days. He was not focusing on the ancestors, but was studying the “history” that was brought back.
Ao would go there every day and have a look. Gui Ze who was appointed as the successor of the Shaman, also looked through the “history” every day.
There was too much information in the “history” they need to master. Shao Xuan and Gui Ze worked together and comprehensively classified those records selected by the Shaman, including the records of celestial phenomena, farming, animal husbandry, handicrafts and so on. Although a thousand years had passed, these records were still very helpful to some extent.
With limited records, neither the Shaman nor Chief Ao had any concrete perception of how prosperous the Flaming Horn tribe was. But through the “history”, they deeply felt the prosperity of their tribe in those years.
Thinking of the arrogant expression of other tribes and the powerful Flaming Horn tribe in the past, Ao only felt that there was a long way for the Flaming Horn tribe to develop and restore its previous state. While it needed time to do.
“Who are the ancestors?” Shao Xuan asked the Shaman in spare time.
The Shaman kept silent for a while and said slowly, “When that disaster happened, one shaman of the Flaming Horn tribe asked his successor to leave here, together with a chief and others, while that shaman and another 100 people hid the valuable “history” in the mountain and protected it from natural or man-made disasters. Then those 100 people, including that shaman, kept the “history” until the end of their lives.”
“More than one hundred people?” Shao Xuan was confused. When he found the cave, there were only seven people, including that old shaman.
“Others… were dead…even no remains!” The Shaman gently stroked a small roll of animal skin in his hands. This was the last mournful record of that shaman, which made people depressed.
In those years when natural disasters occurred, due to the sudden change of the environment, the ferocious beasts in the forest were also frightened and became agitated. Encountering such mad-like ferocious beasts, every day, people went out to hunt would be killed and even left no remains. In the end, only seven of them remained, and they never waited for the clansman to come until they died.
“If one day, the same situation happened to me, I will do the same.” Said the Shaman.
“When are you going to hold the sacrifice?” asked Shao Xuan.
The Shaman didn’t reply, but asked Shao Xuan, “Could you re-carve the patterns on the stone columns?”
“No problem,” said Shao Xuan.
During the period when they went to the forest for the ferocious beast, Ao had led more than a thousand people to hump several huge stone columns here. Shao Xuan understood what the Shaman meant, he hoped that the stone columns could be done before the cremation of the ancestors. Please support our original translation in wangmamaread.
It’s impossible for Shao Xuan to carve all stone columns, they were too huge. So the Shaman and the Chief asked some stone-technical people to polish the stone columns smooth. After the primary polish, Shao Xuan would carve out the patterns in his memory.
In the past, Shao Xuan only remembered the patterns on the stone column, but he couldn’t understand what it meant. After reading more ancient and detailed records left by the ancestors, however, he found that many patterns on the stone column had special meanings. And the patterns carved on different position and different stone columns were different as well. In addition to being used as a sundial, the patterns also had a meaning of sacrifice.
It’s no wonder that the Shaman hoped to, according to the legacy left by the ancestor, make completion of the ruined and missing things around before the cremation. That would be the most orthodox sacrifice ritual of the Flaming Horn tribe.
