Chapter 39 Stone Village
Time passed quickly. After the sun set, night came quietly. Shi Village was very lively at this moment. The men sat together chatting while the women prepared food.

Feng Xi, who was sitting on the side, saw this scene and recalled the days in Feng Village, but it was less warm than Shi Village.

Then Feng Xi's eyes moved, looking at the tree stump that was completely charred, as if it had been struck by lightning. It clearly looked extremely dead, but the strange thing was that new green branches actually sprouted from the stump.

"That's your sacrificial spirit, why don't you worship it?" Feng Xi turned his head to look at Shi Yunfeng and asked knowingly.

Shi Yunfeng was stunned for a moment, wondering why Feng Xi could tell at a glance that Willow God was the sacrificial spirit of Shi Village, but when he came to his senses, he said, "The hunting team did not hunt down any ferocious beasts this time, so naturally they cannot offer sacrifices."

Shi Yunfeng's tone sounded somewhat guilty, causing Shi Feijiao and others beside him to also look ashamed.

"Didn't we kill a golden lion today? Why not use it as a sacrifice to the spirits?" Feng Xi said.

"Ah, no, that is your prey, Lord Feng." Shi Yunfeng replied.

Feng Xi thought for a moment and said, "I don't have anywhere to go recently. I want to stay in Shi Village for a while. The prey I caught also belongs to the village. I wonder if the village chief can accept it."

He was just worrying about having no excuse to stay in Shi Village, but now the steps were handed directly to him.

"It is of course great that Lord Feng is willing to stay in Shi Village, but we already owe you a favor and we are ashamed to take advantage of you." Shi Yunfeng said in a firm tone.

The people from Shi Village on the side also nodded, agreeing with Shi Yunfeng's point of view.

"I am staying here temporarily, so I cannot get something for nothing. Besides, I will need your help to deal with the prey I catch."

"This, helping to deal with it is what we should do, but it's not good to get something for nothing just because of such a small matter."

Feng Xi was a little speechless. The old man's principles were too strong and he couldn't be persuaded at all. So he said firmly, "Okay, just do as I say! I have my principles and I can't take advantage of you for no reason."

Everyone in Shi Village looked at each other, not knowing what to do, so they all looked at Shi Yunfeng, waiting for the old village chief to make a decision.

"Okay, thank you for your kindness, Lord Feng." Shi Yunfeng pondered for a long time before nodding.

So the men of Shi Village also stopped chatting, and under the leadership of the tribe leader Shi Yunfeng, the tribesmen moved the body of the golden lion to a stone platform.

This is a large altar, built of huge stones, very open, next to the stone village sacrifice spirit, giving people a solemn feeling. At this moment, it is full of ferocious beasts, bloodstained, flowing down from the huge body, and flowing along the carved patterns on the altar.

The cold scales, long fur, and thick, sharp horns flashed with a chilling light, making one feel a chill in the heart.

After everything was prepared, Shi Yunfeng led the tribesmen to gather in front of the altar. Men, women, young and old, all came, closed their eyes and prayed devoutly.

The scene was very solemn. There was no noise at all and you could hear a pin drop.

The sacrificial spirit is the spirit that Shicun worships and offers sacrifices to. Only with a sincere heart can it scare away the ferocious beasts and protect this place.

Finally, the sacrifice was over and people breathed a sigh of relief. The young and strong men in the tribe began to move the golden lion off the altar and would cut it up and bleed it soon.

"The kids are blessed now. With the precious blood of the ferocious beasts in the Cave Heaven Realm and the help of some medicinal herbs, the kids can be better tempered." Shi Feijiao said happily.

"Yes, I have to thank Lord Feng for his help." Shi Yunfeng smiled and thanked Feng Xi again.

He is the head of Shi Village, so he naturally hopes that the children in the village can get the best training. Only in this way can they survive better in the wilderness in the future. This is why he accepted the golden lion, mostly for the sake of the children. "Okay, stop thanking me. You guys are making me feel a little uncomfortable." Feng Xi said.

Everyone in Shi Village scratched their heads embarrassedly, but did not say any more polite words. They just remembered these favors in their hearts.

To be honest, the food that night was not very good, because the Golden Lion did not have time to prepare it, so dinner was made with the meat that had been stored in the past. And it was not all meat, but a mixture of meat and vegetables.

After the dinner, Feng Xi came to the stone house prepared for him by Shi Yunfeng, the best stone house in Shi Village.

It’s a pity that I didn’t see little Naihao. I don’t know if it’s because his body hasn’t recovered yet.

It has only been about half a year since Shi Hao had his bones dug out, and he should not have recovered yet, Feng Xi thought secretly in his heart.

The next day, Feng Xi got up early and looked at the people from Shi Village who were busy. Today they were going to bleed the golden lion and then help the little kids temper their bodies.

Feng Xi walked over and noticed a sickly child at first sight. He was about knee-high and had a very pale face. From what he could see now, it was impossible for this child to achieve such great success in the future.

"Master Feng..."

When everyone in Shi Village saw Feng Xi, they stopped what they were doing and greeted Feng Xi.

Feng Xi was actually very helpless about this. Since yesterday, he had repeatedly advised everyone to just call him by his name, but the people in Shi Village refused to listen.

However, there was one thing that made Feng Xi feel relieved, that was the children in Shi Village did not follow the adults in shouting.

"Uncle Feng..."

The corner of Feng Xi's mouth twitched. He actually wanted to say that he was only ten years old and there was no need to call him uncle.

After nodding to everyone, Feng Xi walked directly to Shi Yunfeng, and then looked at little Naihao curiously. Especially after seeing him holding a small bowl and drinking beast milk, he couldn't help but chuckle.

Shi Hao was unfortunate. At a very young age, he was persecuted by his family and almost died. But he was fortunate to meet the people of Shi Village and Willow God. These people gave him a lot of love and care, which at least made his childhood happy and gave him spiritual sustenance in the future.

"Master Feng." Shi Yunfeng looked at Feng Xi and greeted him warmly. Then he said to Shi Hao, "Little guy, call me uncle."

The little guy was fair, tender and cute, with a pair of big black eyes that rolled around, and the whole person looked like a white porcelain doll. After hearing what the village chief said, he put down the animal milk in his hand and said in a baby voice.

"uncle."

Feng Xi looked at the white milk stains on the corners of the little one's mouth, and his mood became much better. He smiled and said, "Little one is so good."

When the little guy heard Feng Xi praising him, he buried his head in Shi Yunfeng's legs a little embarrassedly, then tilted his head and took a sip of the beast's milk.

Shi Yunfeng touched the little guy's head lovingly, his weathered eyes full of kindness.

Feng Zhan shifted his gaze and looked at the precious blood released by the golden lion for a while, then said to Shi Yunfeng: "I'm going to go out for a while, don't worry about boiling the precious medicine, I'll go and bring back a few fierce beasts."
