Chapter 1402 - 1241: Ancient Beast World 7
Shuangshuang taught with great seriousness, and these Female Orcs studied even more seriously. Beastmen, regardless of gender, all had to hunt, and because their beast form was that of a tiger, their human bodies were also influenced by their beast forms, making them extremely agile and flexible.With bodies like this, learning to dance was a matter of half the effort for twice the result. The hardest part of dancing was stretching and flexibility; the movements themselves were the least difficult.
But the flexibility of the Beastmen’s bodies absolutely did not lose to those High-level dancers of modern society. Learning to dance like this, their speed was naturally incredibly fast—so fast that even Shuangshuang was a little surprised.
By the time the banquet officially began, the few Female Orcs chosen by Shuangshuang were already dancing in decent form, at least seventy percent similar to her.
Although their dancing was still inevitably a bit rough, it added a kind of wild beauty and wasn’t unpleasant to watch. After that, Shuangshuang greeted Dou Yan, saying that when they worshiped the Earth Lord God, she wanted to add the God Sacrifice Dance.
Dou Yan naturally agreed without a word of objection. He simply assumed this was the request of the Earth Lord God. Shuangshuang, as the Great Witch now acknowledged by the tribe, naturally had to lead the people in sacrificing to the Earth Lord God.
Because Shuangshuang had said she was personally enlightened and taught by the Earth Lord God, the tribe had long since taken it for granted that Shuangshuang knew all the rules for offering sacrifices, so Dou Yan directly let Shuangshuang lead people to worship the Earth Lord God.
Originally, the Great Witch was the one responsible for leading people in sacrifices to the Gods, but the Earth Lord God was something Shuangshuang made up. How could she know how to conduct a sacrifice?
Yet Shuangshuang couldn’t just bluntly say she didn’t understand. Left with no choice, she hastily flipped through the memories of the sacrificial rituals she had attended in her previous life, and copied them in a rough way, muddling through somehow.
Shuangshuang arranged the God Sacrifice Dance at the very end of the sacrificial ceremony. When everyone saw the graceful figures performing a dance that wasn’t perfect but still incredibly shocking to them, the entire tribe was stunned.
It wasn’t that Beastmen had no sense of beauty; the reason their dancing had always been so awful was simply that their lives were too hard. When life was bitter, survival was the top priority.
In the face of survival, all other needs were oppressed and ignored. But just because they were suppressed and ignored didn’t mean they didn’t exist. At this moment, watching this beautiful God Sacrifice Dance, everyone was not only shocked but also felt joy and delight in their hearts.
There were even a few Beastmen who were good at moving their bodies who, after the God Sacrifice Dance ended, started imitating the movements below, twisting their bodies and joining in. Although they looked nothing like it, it was still much better-looking than their previous waist-twisting and foot-stomping.
Seeing how much the tribe liked the God Sacrifice Dance, Shuangshuang was pleased. She planned that after she choreographed a few more dances and found a few people with good voices, she would have them learn how to sing.
She had experienced countless worlds, and it was a pity that so many classic songs could no longer be heard. She might as well train a few singers in this Primitive World; in the future, composing some classic songs would also be a wonderful thing.
Even if it wasn’t just to deal with Su Jinghao, doing some entertainment to amuse herself and add some laughter to the tribe was good too.
But the prerequisite for all this was that the people of the tribe had to live at least decently. Only then would they have the leisure to engage in these seemingly flashy but impractical things in this Primitive World.
After a night of revelry, life still had to return to the right track. The Beastmen began preparing to go out hunting. Regardless of gender, those with strong combat power went hunting; those with weaker combat power, the elderly, and children were responsible for gathering.
Those who were too young, like Shuangshuang, just a few years old and unable to do anything, stayed in the tribe’s caves, watched over by Beastmen specifically left behind.
In the past, Shuangshuang had always been one of those left behind. Now that she wanted to improve the tribe’s quality of life, she decided to go out with her father Shi Li and mother Saran’s Hunting Team.
The main reason was that this time Shuangshuang was planning to gather some medicinal herbs and make some hemostatic potions for the Hunting Team to carry with them in the future—these were things that could save lives.
It had to be said, the Great Witch really was a rule-breaking existence. Although Shuangshuang hadn’t truly communicated with the heavens and received the Earth Lord God’s favor to awaken her Great Witch Talent...
After obtaining this world’s Great Witch Talent, because her Talent was too strong, she had actually awakened the Great Witch inheritance.
This Great Witch inheritance contained a myriad of things, and among them was all kinds of medical knowledge about this world.
The medicinal herbs and plants of every world were different. The plants in this world had medicinal properties far more miraculous than those of worlds without supernatural power—there were even plants that could heal someone on the brink of death, though they were extremely rare.
Ever since she gained this knowledge of herbs from the Great Witch inheritance, Shuangshuang had been wanting to find a chance to go out and gather some herbs to try learning how to use this world’s herbs to treat illnesses and save people.
Even with the Great Witch inheritance, if she didn’t study and put it into practice, the inheritance would remain nothing but inheritance, like books sitting on a shelf, collecting dust over time.
What was called inheritance was no more than opening a door to the road of knowledge. It wouldn’t leave you with no path to learn, but if you wanted to truly make the knowledge your own, you had to study diligently.
When Shuangshuang said she wanted to join the hunt, Shi Li and Saran both hesitated. The two of them really didn’t want to let Shuangshuang go with them.
By rights, although Shuangshuang was their daughter, she was also the tribe’s Great Witch. With that identity, they shouldn’t stop her. But as parents, Shi Li and Saran simply couldn’t feel at ease.
The Great Witch possessed witch power, and their combat strength had always been much higher than Beastmen who could only transform into beast form to fight. Although Great Witches rarely fought and were always the tribe’s strongest force guarding the tribe...
Even though the Great Witch’s combat power was strong, that was only in comparison to ordinary Beastmen. Among Great Witches themselves, there were differences in strength, because even between Great Witches, there were gaps and different areas of expertise.
Theoretically, a Great Witch at the very least needed to be able to heal illnesses, divine the stars to foresee potential disasters for the tribe, and fight.
But in reality, Great Witches also had their specialties. The reason lay in the fact that a person’s energy was limited. Focusing on one aspect inevitably meant being less focused on the others, and thus less proficient.
For instance, someone good at healing would naturally be weaker in combat and divination. Likewise, someone strong in combat or divination would find the other two areas becoming their weak spots.
Shuangshuang had previously displayed extremely strong abilities in healing, so correspondingly, divination and combat were definitely her weak points.
On top of that, even if Shuangshuang’s mind was mature enough, her age was still small. If she were a little older now—not necessarily an adult, even if she were around ten—Shi Li and Saran wouldn’t be so worried.
But Shuangshuang was only five years old. How could Shi Li and Saran feel at ease letting her go hunt with them? Hunting was riddled with dangers; life-and-death crises could appear at any moment.
Let alone Shi Li and Saran—even Dou Yan, who was on the other side preparing to select Hunting Team Members, jumped three feet high in fright when he heard that Shuangshuang wanted to go hunting.
For a moment, he couldn’t even be bothered to keep selecting Hunting Team Members. He rushed over in a hurry to persuade Shuangshuang not to act on impulse.
