Chapter 470: Tribal Girl! Is there a real God?
Chapter 470: Tribal Girl! Is there a real God?
The tribe where Liya was born lived in the Eastern Green Shadow Sky, under the rule of Potis, the god of plants.
And she herself is an "ordinary" member of this tribe.
Compared with Oriental Green Rosewood, the entire tribe can only be ranked around the middle.
The lives of the people in the tribe were not too difficult, but they were definitely not comfortable either.
As for Liya herself, her life is even more difficult.
Since she was a girl and her parents had died long ago, it was normal that she was not valued in the tribe.
It's just that because her father died for the tribe, the tribe didn't treat her harshly.
However, this kind of life without harsh treatment is still very difficult for Liya.
There is no other reason, it’s just that Liya’s appetite is really too big.
It was so big that the food that several adults ate in a day was not enough for her to eat in one meal.
Therefore, Liya lived in hunger every day.
This situation continued until Liya revealed her specialness for the first time.
……
An accidental discovery made the tribal leader realize that Liya's strength seemed to be unusually great.
Even objects that were extremely heavy for him could be moved easily by Liya.
She moved it with such ease that it even felt like she was not moving a heavy object but a floating grass.
Having such tremendous strength also means that Leah's physical strength is also incredibly high.
Not only that, Liya's learning ability is also amazing.
Things that seem very difficult to understand to others, Liya can often grasp them quickly.
It is also because of this that the tribe sees Liya’s value.
Therefore, the chief took the initiative to teach her some hunting skills and then let her join the hunting team directly.
In this situation, the tribe can capture a sufficient share of prey every time, so that the situation of the entire tribe continues to improve.
As a result, Liya could barely avoid going hungry like before, but she couldn't eat her fill.
The reason for this, of course, is not because Leah can't catch more prey.
It’s just because of everything in the entire Green Shadow Sky, including the lives within their tribe.
All of them belonged to Potis, the great god of plants.
There is clearly countless food in those vast forests and grasslands.
But it was because of the oracle of Potas, the god of plants.
As a result, the amount of food that any intelligent life can obtain within a certain period of time is very limited.
It is just enough to survive and ensure that they have enough strength to hunt, pick and not starve to death.
Just like that, I have been living a half-dead life.
……
This also made Li Ya, who was not too old, have such doubts in her mind more than once.
We gave our faith and dedicated our bodies and minds.
Correspondingly, shouldn’t the gods make our lives better and better?
But why are those gods completely unable to see the difficulties of their lives, and instead issued such cruel and ruthless oracles?
Ordinary, lower-class people only know that they need to revere and believe in gods, but they have never thought deeply about why.
Perhaps for them, gods possess infinite power and are an existence that cannot be resisted.
And those who have truly thought about it and put it into action have all fallen into the hands of the gods.
Obviously, Liya is now gradually embarking on a path of no return.
She began to think deeply about the relationship between gods and these lives.
I gradually felt that the world shouldn’t be like this.
However, the tribe she belonged to was only a medium-sized tribe, and there were very few things she could access.
Therefore, although she felt that something was wrong, she had no idea what was wrong or how to change it.
……
"It shouldn't be like this..."
Such a seed of exploration and resistance was planted in Liya's extremely young heart.
She felt that the gods believed in by the tribes today, or even all the gods she had heard of, should not be like this.
"They...are not real gods!"
For some reason, Liya had this perception.
But then I became more confused.
"If they are not real gods, then what would a real god be like?"
"Does God really exist?"
Liya's every move, every thought, always demonstrates her uniqueness.
This also made the entire tribe rely on her but also subconsciously distance themselves from her.
The tribe also needs Liya's ability to ensure that everyone has access to enough food.
But some of the words that Leah occasionally uttered made them feel very scared.
Because in their limited knowledge, those words were blatant blasphemy.
In the past, Liya also thought about finding some people with whom she could communicate with common topics.
But in the end she gave up.
She knew that there was no one in the tribe where she lived now who could communicate with her.
This also made Liya think about not thinking anymore. Wouldn't it be nice to live in a daze until death?
until……
……
"What are you doing?"
Liya asked subconsciously.
She had just returned from hunting and saw the tribal leader leading some of his tribesmen.
She tied up six young tribesmen, three men and three women, and walked towards the altar in the center of the tribe, which she seldom went to on weekdays.
Her intuition told her that this must not be a good thing.
When the leader heard Liya's question, he responded subconsciously.
"Ah, we are going to offer sacrifices to the gods..."
At this point, the leader realized something and quickly shut his mouth.
But Leah already understood.
"No wonder... every three years, I always feel like there are a few people missing from the tribe. It turns out..."
At this time, Liya finally realized.
She is sixteen years old now. She is naturally intelligent and has a good memory.
In recent years, the leader would ask her to lead the hunting team to hunt farther away every three years.
And every time she came back from hunting, Liya always found that there seemed to be a few people missing from the tribe.
Although the population of the entire tribe is not too large, it exceeds four digits.
Therefore, Liya always thought that she had remembered it wrong.
It was not until today that Liya finally realized that she was not mistaken. The people who were missing in the previous incidents were all young members of the tribe.
They were all used as sacrifices.
The chief obviously knew her attitude towards the gods, so she didn't dare to let him know.
And because this sacrifice certainly does not require the participation of everyone, she was sent away at this time.
When she came back, the so-called sacrifice had already ended, and even if Liya wanted to find clues, she had no idea where to start.
……
At this moment, everyone also noticed the subtlety of the atmosphere.
Following the leader's eye signal, some strong tribesmen vaguely surrounded Liya.
But at this time, Liya completely ignored it.
As early as a few years ago, she no longer took the tribesmen in her eyes in terms of their true strength.
But at this time, she did not take action directly, but looked at the six children who were tied up.
"You...are you willing?"
"Do you know what your ending will be?"
Liya asked hesitantly.
In response to Liya's question, the six children looked at each other in confusion, but nodded at the same time.
"I know!"
"We must dedicate ourselves to the great spirit."
"In this way, the gods will bless us."
Liya frowned.
"You...will die."
"No, the chief and my father and mother all said that we will enter the kingdom of God and serve the great gods!"
There was an indescribable sense of pride and honor on the young faces of the six children.
However, this made Liya feel unprecedented fear and horror.
"No...it shouldn't be like this..."
At this moment, Liya gave up her original plan.
If you want to save these six children, you will be making an enemy of the entire tribe.
And with the six children's current ability to understand, they would definitely not be grateful to her.
On the contrary, they would probably feel that Liya had ruined their chance to serve the great spirit.
Thinking of this, Liya had a strong feeling.
She wanted to leave here and go somewhere farther.
"Whoosh!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Liya chose to follow her inner thoughts.
He turned around and knocked away several of the tribesmen who were surrounding him, and just like that, he disappeared from everyone's sight...
