Chapter 39 She Is Just a Burden

"You are so arrogant. You can do it just because you say you can?" Er Ya said disdainfully. If it was really that simple, the tribe would not have to worry about the fire being extinguished. She looked at the witch doctor again, "Witch doctor, let's quickly prepare the sacrificial objects to sacrifice to the beast god and let it give us fire. In this way, even if Xiao Yan cannot borrow the fire back, we can pray to the beast god to give us the heavenly fire.

"Yes." Although the witch doctor agreed, she did not hold out much hope, because the beast god rarely gave them the heavenly fire at this time, even if there was thunder, there would be no heavenly fire, not to mention that there was very little thunder at this time.

Shen Xiaoxiao did not indulge her, and directly retorted, "Did I make you believe it? You are badmouthing me before I even started. Why, do you really want the tribe to have no fire? Or do you think I don't want the tribe to have fire again? "

Er Ya said anxiously, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I not want the tribe to have fire?"

Shen Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows slightly, "Really? I thought you didn't want the tribe to have fire again, otherwise why would you stop me like this? "

Er Ya was speechless and gritted her teeth and said, "You'd better be able to pray for the fire from the sky." Although the others did not believe her, they dared not say anything when they saw that Er Ya was speechless and that they were blocking the fire from the sky.

But they did not believe it at all in their hearts. They did not believe that Shen Xiaoxiao could pray for the beast god to give the fire from the sky.

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the witch doctor, "Witch doctor, can you let me try?" Before the witch doctor could speak, Er Ya said, "Witch doctor, since she wants to try, let her try. Maybe she can really pray for the fire from the sky. "This was said in a sarcastic tone, full of targeting, Shen Xiaoxiao just ignored it and let it go.

Others also echoed, they also wanted to know if she had any way to get the beast god to grant the sky fire.

The witch doctor was not hopeful, but still agreed to let her try.

Shen Xiaoxiao patted Xiao Yan's shoulder and asked him to put her down. Xiao Yan carefully put her on the ground and said with concern, "It doesn't matter if you can't beg for it. I'm here. I will bring back the fire."

Shen Xiaoxiao smiled and said confidently, "Believe me." She couldn't beg for the sky fire, but she had the wisdom of her ancestors. If she could still make mistakes by copying it, then she wouldn't have to come out to see people.

"Xiaoxiao, do you need any prey? "Although she didn't believe it, the witch doctor still asked responsibly. Shen Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate to tell her what she needed. They were confused and didn't understand what the wood was for. Could it be that she had to use wood for sacrifice?

She must be crazy. They might not be able to bring down the sky fire when they sacrificed their prey to the beast god. Isn't she afraid of causing trouble for the beast god by using wood for sacrifice?

Or does she want to cause trouble for the beast god and take advantage of this opportunity to let the beast god bring down the sky fire?

No matter how confused they were, they still prepared the things according to Shen Xiaoxiao's requirements.

Er Ya looked at her with disdain. She didn't believe that Shen Xiaoxiao could really ask for the sky fire. She was looking at her with a funny attitude, thinking that if she failed, she would laugh at her severely.

And Ah Xiang and the others had complicated eyes. They hoped that she could ask for the sky fire, but looking at the things she prepared, they felt that she was joking.

Shen Xiaoxiao ignored their eyes , and asked Xiao Yan to sharpen one end of the stick, while she peeled the skin of the rattan used to tie firewood and twisted it into a rope, and bent a more resilient small stick into a bow shape, and tied the twisted rope to the two ends of the stick.

The dried reeds were kneaded into fluff for starting a fire, and Xiao Yan handed the sharpened stick to her. Shen Xiaoxiao took it and made a loop with the rope to put the stick on it.

She took a bone knife and chiseled a small stick on the wood used for making fire that was just big enough to accommodate the drill, then put the stick on it, pressed it with a piece of wood to fix it, and then started to pull the bow to make the stick turn.

Originally, the people in the tribe looked at her with interest, but seeing that she kept repeating the same action, from the initial expectation to the later disappointment, some people even started to make sarcastic remarks.

"She is playing with us, can this bring heavenly fire?"

"That's right, it's better to let her leave now, wasting our time. "

Shen Xiaoxiao turned a deaf ear to what they said and ignored it directly.

But Erya was not as restrained as the others. She called out the names directly, "Shen Xiaoxiao, you don't really think you can get the fire from the sky like this? If you can get the fire from the sky like this, then what's the point of us offering sacrifices to the beast god."

Although the others didn't say anything, they obviously had the same idea as her.

Shen Xiaoxiao didn't want to pay attention to her at first, but she kept chattering there. She stopped what she was doing and looked at her with a cold look, "What if I can successfully get the fire? How about you?"

Seeing Shen Xiaoxiao's eyes, Erya was actually frightened for a moment. After reacting, she said angrily, "If you can successfully get the fire from the sky, I will apologize to you in front of everyone and admit that I am not as good as you. "Xiao Yan being taken away has always been a thorn in her heart. In addition, Shen Xiaoxiao did nothing and was useless, which made her even more upset. That's why she would find trouble with Shen Xiaoxiao whenever she had the chance.

"Remember what you said, you can shut up now, and don't speak until I get the fire." She didn't care about the content of Erya's apology, she just wanted her to be quiet now.

"Why? Can't I speak because you can't get the fire?" Erya said indignantly.

Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at her, then said calmly, "Don't worry, I will let the people in the tribe use the fire before dark." Now the dead tree has begun to turn black, and it will be successful soon.

"What if you can't get fire? How are you going to do it?"

"What do you want?" Shen Xiaoxiao said calmly.

"I want you to leave Xiao Yan." There was a hint of excitement in Erya's voice, "I want you to never appear in front of Xiao Yan." This way she still has a chance.

Before Shen Xiaoxiao said anything, Xiao Yan spoke, "It's not your turn to worry about what's going on between us."

"But she doesn't know anything, she's just a drag. Why are you so devoted to her?" Erya still couldn't figure out what was wrong with her.

"Speak as you say, please don't attack personally." He added, "I think the same as Xiao Yan. I won't bet on my relationship with him. You can change your request."

Erya bit her lip and said nothing. Shen Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said, "If I lose, then I will be like you and admit that I am not as good as you."

Erya immediately said, "You are not as good as me. You don't know anything. Even when you go picking, you have to go with Xiao Yan."

Shen Xiaoxiao laughed dumbly, "So, do you agree?"

Erya thought for a while and agreed to the bet.

Shen Xiaoxiao put the tinder inside, and then started to turn the wooden stick. Others wanted to say something, but seeing that Erya was speechless, they began to discuss in a low voice, but they were all unfavorable. I felt that she was just joking and there was no way she could ask for heavenly fire.

Although the witch doctor had no hope at the beginning, he became even more disappointed when he saw her acting like a fool.
