As the chief commander of the project, Xu Chen did not participate in the hard and tiring specific projects such as dam construction and digging.

He spent most of his time busy with other things except for the progress of the inspection project every day.

After the full moon night in mid-March, the annual Old Mother Festival will begin.

According to traditional customs, the Mother's Day will be held in which tribe.

Therefore, this year the Ba people will undertake the first Old Mother Festival event in history.

As the backbone of the Ba tribe, Xu Chen had no experience in holding the Old Mother Festival, so he had to discuss arrangements with him.

Of course, Xu Chen was even less experienced.

But inexperienced does not mean that he is not good at it.

After all, this is a sacrificial activity. He has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running. The rituals of ancient emperor sacrificial ceremonies he watched in film and television programs are much more complex and magnificent than the worship of gods that had just formed in these primitive tribes. If you want to make the sacrificial rituals well, it will be shocking enough and the scale will be completed.

But after all, the Ba people have limited manpower and do not have much manpower or financial resources to make him waste his image and face projects, so it is too late to hit the wonders.

Therefore, Xu Chen arranged the home venue of the Old Mother Festival held by the Ba people this year in the cave where he lived in the past.

In order to create a visual and spiritual impact on all the tribes that came to attend the meeting, he led a group of craftsmen to carry out a large-scale transformation of the cave, using bricks and stones to build a two-meter-high human-shaped building at the fire pit at the entrance of the cave, and then smoothed it with clay and lime outside to make it look like a huge statue of a kneeling on the ground and holding a baby.

This statue is a woman's appearance, naked, charming and dignified appearance.

However, this charm and dignity are both described by Xu Chen himself. In fact, the proportion is seriously out of order. He has a long body, long arms, long neck, and long face. His appearance is very similar to the image of Sanxingdui characters, and his body and appearance are seriously deformed.

The main reason is that he is not good at creating and processing in this kind of art field.

Therefore, it can only develop in the abstract.

But it was this goddess statue that made him feel guilty for several days and could not sleep. It fell into the eyes of a group of craftsmen. It was simply a magical craft and full of mysterious charm.

After a few days of air drying, Xu Chen used various pigments to process the statue twice, drawing facial features such as eyebrows, mouth, nose, etc. Especially after drawing the eyes that accounted for one-third of the face, the entire statue seemed to come alive suddenly, looking down at the world like a god. At that time, a group of craftsmen in charge of help were so scared that they lay down on their legs and kowtowed and screamed.

They are just a group of savages, and they have never seen the real god.

This statue, regardless of appearance, charm and temperament, conforms to all the images of God they imagined in their minds.

It looks like a human but not a human, it looks like a beast but not a beast, it is terrifying, mysterious, and has a human characteristic.

And Xu Chen said that this is the First Mother God, the common ancestor of all human races. The worship of the First Mother God is not necessary for a group of primitive humans.

After the statue of the First Mother Goddess was completed, Xu Chen asked someone to clean the inside and outside the cave. The grain cellars and sleeping stone nests were thrown out. The thorns and weeds on the open space outside were also pulled out, and the wells covered with leaves were dug. After cleaning up like this, the entire cave inside and outside were clean and refreshed.

In order to make the sacrificial venue look more serious.

Xu Chen used a wooden ladder to slowly figure out three small seal characters with a stone axe, and also painted them with homemade cinnabar lacquer.

After all this, there are only four days left before the Old Mother's Day.

But he felt that he was still a little unsatisfied, and he used various colors of pigments to draw the flags of the seven tribes of the Ba tribe, including the Thunder Clan, on the cave wall. He also imitated ancient rock paintings, painted some patterns of sun, moon, stars, and very abstract human-shaped birds and beasts, just like humans fighting wild beasts in the wilderness.

These patterns are mixed with the diary he wrote before, forming a colorful and magnificent scroll.

With the further processing and completion of Xu Chen's text patterns, a group of craftsmen were completely shocked by Xu Chen's magical and rich creativity and enchanting. The look of his eyes became more and more awe, and he almost wanted to worship him as a god.

Xu Chen's activities on the mountain were not very clear about the group of women such as Mother Ba and Ah Mother.

Because the two groups of people perform their duties.

Short time and heavy tasks.

Xu Chen was responsible for the arrangement of the venue, and Moba and Amu led all the women to prepare accommodation and food.

The tribes that came this time went to the Wu tribe more than in previous years. Even if each tribe brought their own dry food, the Ba tribe, as the host, should be more generous and provide as much food and accommodation as possible. This is also a way to entertain guests.

In addition, this time we came not only with young men and women who chose to marry, but also with seven or eight patriarchs and two great witches. The friendship between landlords that should be completed must be exhausted. We cannot make the Ba tribe full of complaints and dissatisfaction like the Wu tribe's witch convention last year.

As the great witch who presided over the ceremony, it was the first time that the little witch presided over the Old Mother's Day, so she seemed very nervous and stayed in her room almost all day long to get to know the witch songs.

In addition, in order to make this event more colorful, Xu Chen also specially selected young women of thirty people from the two tribes to rehearse the sacrifices and singing and dancing with the little witches.

In the past, this kind of sacrificial activities were held by the Wu tribe. The Wu tribe was very familiar with sacrificial activities and did not require rehearsals at all.

But the Ba people are not good. This is the first time. In order not to make mistakes, we must arrange the training from scratch in order to ensure success and success.

In addition, the song and dance of the old mother festival held by the newly joined Gonghuo tribe and the young women of the Cha tribe before were different from those of the Wu tribe alliance, and they need to learn again.

Fortunately, the little witches are familiar with these songs and dance contents. After seven or eight days of rehearsing, they also look very well.

There are only three days left before the Old Mother's Day.

The venue layout on Xu Chenshan was completed, and he decided to hold a rehearsal in advance.

Therefore, the entire ceremony of Mother's Day is a primitive reproductive worship. In the woods where the people of the Wu tribe were buried, it was a simple shape built with huge stones, reflecting an ancient and primitive style.

The venue designed by Xu Chen is a completely different style composed of complex elements such as statues, texts, patterns, etc., full of a true atmosphere of civilization and already has a touch of religious flavor.

From primitive blind worship to concrete humanization of gods, this is a big step for human beings to move from wilderness to higher civilization.

From ancient witches to religion, this is also a big step in the evolution of spiritual beliefs.

The witches at present represent gods. They carry the power and will of gods, mainly to lead and open up wisdom, and have supreme status.

When it comes to religion, gods have been completely transcribed, and the profession of witch began to be divided into levels. They no longer have supreme status, but instead reach the level of approaching gods through their own worship of gods, gradually fading out of the lives and sight of the people, and slowly evolved into an independent religious group.

Therefore, all people who are close to the gods have a very unique inheritance system from beginning to end.

The inheritance of witches and religious inheritance are in line with each other.

However, as the people's wisdom becomes higher and higher, their understanding of nature becomes clearer, and their understanding of God becomes more and more different. In the end, the awe and worship of God becomes more and more different. Believing or not becoming a kind of freedom becomes.

But no matter what, during the development of human civilization, worship of gods has always existed, and will even run through the entire process of human civilization until the day when humans disappear.

Because compared with the entire universe, as human cognition and exploration go further and further, more and more things that are difficult to reach and understand will be.

Gods may still be the ultimate spiritual support for human beings.

And in this wilderness era, gods and witches are the spiritual pillars of all primitive savages.

Only under the guidance of the witch can we receive the favor and protection of the gods, and humans can obtain sufficient food and conditions for survival.

Because compared with the wild nature, human power is too small. Food, clothing, accommodation, fertility, disease, and pain are all threatened by death. Without the guidance of the wise and the favor of God, no tribe or human can survive.

The statue of the First Mother God, which Xu Chen's figure will provide a stronger spiritual support and support for all the Alliance tribes in a brand new look.

The two family leaders, Muba and Amu, brought a group of young women participating in singing and dancing sacrifices, surrounded the little witches wearing brand new witch dresses and holding golden witch scepters to the mountain.

Everyone agreed with Xu Chen's rehearsal activities.

Especially the little witch, she was always nervous, afraid that she would make mistakes in the ceremony and blasphemy would bring disaster to all tribes.

No one walks the road up the mountain all year round, and the weeds are overgrown and slippery.

It took a group of people more than half an hour to finally climb the mountainside.

However, when a group of people walked through the thorny woods and looked at the cave that suddenly became clear in front of them, they suddenly felt as if they were immersed in a fixed manner, their faces were so dull that they could not describe.

The familiar cave in the past is like a completely changed place, as if it suddenly appears in another completely different time and space.

"Mo...Moxie Gaga?"

It took only two minutes before Mo Ba came to her senses and pointed to the statue and asked tremblingly.

"First mother!" Xu Chen replied with a smile.

"Ao~~"

Before Mother Ba could understand, the loud voice of the mother rushed to the ground and slapped her limbs on the ground to start a big gift.

"First mother...First mother..."

Mother Ba trembled her lips and said it softly twice, then she also lay on the ground, lying on her limbs and dared not look up.
Chapter completed!
