Chapter 268: : Sacrifice

But it is indeed necessary to compose a story that unites the entire Tianyuan tribe. After all, the Tianyuan tribe is getting bigger and bigger, and there is no unified purpose as a gluing tribe, just like a scattered sand.
In the past, relying on mutual chatter to get acquainted with the situation of the team, more than 150 people are no longer applicable. After all, Tianyuan tribe now has nearly 300 people. It is estimated that in winter, we have to go straight to 500 people.
The glue-story/purpose, is essential.
It's time to launch something like a patron saint, but certainly not a patron saint.
If it develops into a religion in the future, it will be very troublesome.
Of course, small and medium-sized religious organizations among the people are fine, but the state cannot be, at least not in name.
How to make the glue and how to make people understand the story they want to express becomes the top priority.
This is also the reason why Chen Chao has been popularizing Mandarin. The language is different. It is not that communication is not possible, but it is easy to lose meaning.
Even if you express what you want to express, but others don’t understand or understand, it’s useless.
Fortunately, apart from the newly joined White Tribe, the popularization of Mandarin in Tianyuan Tribe is on track.
The last group of Jie tribes and other tribes who joined, can already talk normally in Mandarin.
Of course, in addition to their own way of doing things in the countryside, Chen Chao's part-time study, specializing in teaching Mandarin, also contributed to the ‘night school’.
The problem of communication is solved, and what is left is to consider making up a story to make the entire Tianyuan tribe believe and be willing to work hard for the beautiful scene in the story.
According to the template, there are myths, historical stories, fables, and folk tales.
There are creation myths, hero myths, and legendary myths.
The creation myth is mainly derived from people's exploration and interpretation of the creation of the world and the origin of mankind.
The content is similar, how was the world developed? How is everything created? Where do humans come from?
In short, how did the world come about? This most primitive, most basic, and most important issue is a big issue that primitive people think and pay attention to when the development of human consciousness is at the beginning stage.
Therefore, the creation myth has become the most common theme of all myths.
The other is the heroic mythology, which mainly involves people fighting against nature, such as water control and drought resistance.
There are also reactions to social struggles. The heroes of the clan-tribal wars are simply two tribes fighting. Whoever is the hero of our tribe.
The emergence of heroic myths means the awakening of human self-consciousness, reflecting primitive humans’ knowledge and reflection on themselves.
In the long-term practice of fighting against nature or society, they have continuously deepened their understanding of nature, society and themselves.
Interpretation explores the relationship between the subject and the object, and creates the story of heroic performance, which constitutes the theme of the hero myth.
The third type is the legendary myth. There are still many legends about strange people and gods in exotic countries for Chen Chao to choose.
They reflect the desire and ideals of primitive humans to break through various natural conditions and transform their living environment.
Shows amazing surreal and supernatural imagination.
There are many legends and myths, covering a wide range, with a peculiar image, which is not interesting.
But none of these three actually fit the story that Chen Chao wanted. The stories he wants are more inclined to the kind of countries he knows later.
The best thing is that if you work hard and study hard, you can live a full meal and have clothes and clothes every day, which is to live a better life.
Alas, the main reason is that there is no such experience, so every system boss feels very worried.
It's not that you can't do these things, at least after doing them, it is not conducive to the development of technology.
You can read it as a story, but you can’t put your thoughts on top, otherwise how to promote natural science in the future~
Although the current literacy rate and technology have not yet reached this level, Chen Chao believes that it is not far away~
Among other things, the Tianyuan tribe’s ‘school’ is already under construction. After it’s completed, the full-time classes and the part-time evening classes will be moved in.
In addition to school, Chen Chao is also preparing for the curriculum.
He intends to directly enroll in the first grade of elementary school. The first batch will be for one year, and then according to the specific situation, he will see whether it will be changed to three-year compulsory education.
The courses mainly include Chinese mathematics, ethics (ideological character) and legal system (rule of law), science and physical education. This is a full-time class.
The part-work, part-study evening school version is Chinese mathematics, ethics (ideological character) and legal system (rule of law), science and various technical classes.
The main purpose of language is to increase the literacy rate, and mathematics is to teach arithmetic (the share can be smaller, and the industry you will be engaged in in the future can be opened for advanced studies).
On the other hand, morality and legal system (rule of law) must establish good concepts for them, at least like the grass tribe and the white tribe. It is not advisable to sacrifice the enjoyment of the elderly and children.
The rule of law (rule of law) is mainly to talk about the generality and to know first, so that they can understand and publicize what they can do and what they cannot do in the future.
Of course, in addition to relying on lectures and lectures, Chen Chao also decided to hold similar popularization work on a regular basis, as a function of the existing "Tianyuan Tribe Monthly".
Mainly to explain what happened to the tribe this month, what to do this month, and what not to be done, and so on.
Science is mainly about generalizations, and knowing is the main thing. If you are interested, you can still join the training class.
The technical classes of the evening school are mainly for talents specially trained in all walks of life. Divided into ordinary classes and advanced classes, that is, entry classes and promotion classes.
Although it is a technical class, the basic knowledge of the learning still has to be learned, that is, the proportion will be relatively small.
This group of people was mainly trained as teachers, skilled workers, and the first batch of middle and lower-level managers, in order to better popularize basic knowledge and ideological morality, as well as the future governance of the Tianyuan tribe and the lighting of the technology tree.
There are not many people in the tribe now, and it is not too troublesome to teach, but I think a little bit far, and papermaking is a problem that needs to be overcome.
For now, let's turn our thinking to how to weave a story about this tribe...
Should we tell them about planning regularly? What plan is that? Say that our tribe will have a rumbling train in the future? Or a plane flying in the sky?
They don't even have to think about it, and they don't understand it. Maybe they think they are sick.
It seems that you can only start with the most basic basic necessities? Create a utopia that everyone can eat and wear as long as they work hard, without encountering a dangerous utopia?
Damn it, it's so difficult! !
I can't think of a story to make up! !
Is it going to be granted by the emperor? ! ! Grass, isn't it the old way? !
Although it is said that I tend to engage in centralization, but...
Grass...It's a bit difficult...
Thinking of this, Chen Chao sighed lightly, and could only think about it later. Now let's go the old way and sacrifice to the heavens and the ancestors first. After all, there is no patron saint, those who should be worshipped still have to be worshipped.
Chen Chao was wandering in his thoughts, and he felt his body swayed by someone. Turning his head to see, it turned out that some old man was swaying him constantly.
"Hey...what are you in a daze~~ Did you hear what I just said?~~"
Only then did Chen Chao come back to his senses and asked suspiciously, "Ah? What did you just say?"
"Even others have it, but we don't have it. Isn't that good?" The little old man with horns explained.
"Then what did our tribe worship before?" Chen Chao asked.
"Where did our tribe sacrifice anything before, that was something the big tribe could only do~~" At this point, a little old man's tone unconsciously brought a bit of pride.
Chen Chaoyu said earnestly, "You can do sacrifices, but have you forgotten about the sheep tribe? The patron saints of their tribes have never responded to them?"
"That's right..." The little old man with the horns murmured a few times, and was about to give up the matter, but he heard Chen Chao's hearty laugh, "If we don't get the patron saint, we can still Get something else.
For example, we can sacrifice to the heaven and earth, or we can sacrifice our ancestors.
To worship the heaven and the earth is to thank the heaven and the earth for giving us this piece of sky and land that can create a beautiful life.
Worship our ancestors, thank our ancestors for bringing us into this world and imparting the ability to protect ourselves.
Of course, there are many more, you can think of a few more at night, and just read it out at the sacrificial activities. "
