Chapter 3: The Power of Tokiwa
Inexplicably, Genma followed his father to the backyard and stopped in front of the shrine. www.biquge.info The night of the early spring is quiet, without the interference of artificial light sources, and the quiet moonlight is sprinkled on the shrine, which is particularly mysterious. On the shrine is a god who can't see clearly, and I don't know if it's a human or a Pokémon.
"According to the old rules, unless you become a forest ranger, you are not eligible for this. The first sentence was full of the vicissitudes of history, and Genma felt as if he was about to know some great secret. The elves of this world are far more powerful than humans, and they have many secrets of their own that continue to attract people to explore. However, Genma never thought that his backyard would hide some secrets.
Ignoring Genma's surprise, Sami said in a storytelling tone, "There is a legend circulating around the Tokiwa Forest that every ten years, a child born in the Tokiwa Forest will awaken to the power of Tokiwa. In fact, they didn't know that the people of Qianmo Village, who had guarded the Tokiwa Forest for generations, had the qualifications to awaken the power of Tokiwa from birth. It's just that the power of Tokiwa comes from the gift of Tokiwa Forest, and excessive use will destroy the forest, and it has a more important use, so the number of people who can awaken is limited. Our family has been a forest ranger for 10 generations, and you will inherit the power of Tokiwa that has been passed down through the generations as the 11th generation. But if you choose to take a different path, then you are disqualified. How about it, do you regret it? It's too late to regret it now. ”
Genma shook his head, although he was also very excited about the power of Tokiwa, but it was not enough to change his original intention. And if he can't have this kind of powerful power in his life, then why did his father bring him here and tell himself this secret?
Sami smiled bitterly and reached out to take out the Poke Ball on his waist, "Come out, Giant Pincer Mantis." ”
A red mighty Pokémon appeared in front of the two of them. This is the evolution of the Flying Mantis, the Giant Pincer Mantis. Although the total number of race values has not changed compared to the pre-evolution Flying Mantis, the change in the attributes of the insect flying to the insect steel has made it have no restraint except for the fire type. For forest rangers, is there any more suitable Pokémon than it? Genma has always felt that his father can become the strongest of the rangers, to a large extent, because of the advantages of attributes, after all, the elves of the rangers are mainly grass, insects, flying, and general, and there is no fire system that is four times more restrained than the giant pincer mantis, and even the fire skills are rarely learned.
"Patrol the surroundings and protect us. "Sami ordered the giant pincer mantis. The giant pincer mantis nodded, leaving a red figure behind, and it could be seen that this giant pincer mantis was very strong.
"I know I can't convince you, but we can't worry about you traveling alone as a child, so I've decided to leave you some hole cards. I can't break the rules so that you can get the power of Tokiwa, but I can help you break the seal that prevents you from awakening, and plant a seed for you. If you have enough chance, you can awaken the power of Tokiwa. However, you have lost the protection of the forest, and although you can still use the power of Tokiwa, it will consume your own life force, and you should know what the consequences will be if you use it excessively. ”
Genma nodded, extremely excited in his heart, but he still tried to listen patiently to his father's advice, after all, this was related to his own life. A small amount of life force can be compensated for naturally, but if it is consumed excessively, it will not only be difficult to make up, but will also endanger life.
Seeing Genma's serious attitude, Sanjing nodded, stopped talking nonsense, and said, "Then let's start." You're ready. ”
"Huh?" Genma asked confusedly, "What are you going to do?"
"Look carefully, relax your whole body, and don't do anything else. ”
Sami stretched out his hand, and the perennial work made his big hand look rough and powerful. I saw a trace of vibrant green light rising from the palm of my hand, enveloping the whole hand, and countless green points of light floated in the air from nowhere, flying around the backyard, like fireflies in the sky on a summer night.
Sani clasped his hands together and bowed down to the idol, "Guardian Sani asks to retrieve the power of Tokiwa that the family has accumulated over the generations. ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the idol lit up, and a cloud of green light that was almost about to condense into a solid light flew out of it and fell in front of the well.
Sanjingkou began to chant ancient mantras, these mantras Genma had also studied under Sanjing's teachings, but he had never found any use, and only thought that it was a lost ancient sound.
Golden sunlight shines from the sky to the earth,
The plants collect it bit by bit,
Condensed into the essence of all things,
The Guardians follow the ancient covenant to guard this great miracle,
All things are rewarded by the force of life,
A new Guardian is about to be born,
Please continue this gift,
Life condenses into new seeds,
Planted in new fertile soil,
Waiting for germination and continuation
・・・・・・
As the mantra was chanted, the green light continued to solidify, and finally turned into a seed and fell on the hand of the well.
Looking at all this, Genma was stunned, he didn't expect that the things he had learned since he was a child, and the inconspicuous statue in his backyard would hide such a big secret. Sami stood up and pressed the green seed in his hand to the stunned Genma's heart, and the seed sank into Genma's body, and then all the visions disappeared, only his father's tired face and the crazy plants in the courtyard proved that it was not a dream.
"Doesn't seem to have changed?" Genma realized, except that he felt refreshed and his body was swept away, there didn't seem to be any special feeling.
"You'll know when the time comes. ”
It's so perfunctory, it's so familiar!" Xuanma complained silently.
"Although I didn't learn it by heart when I taught you, you can understand the mantra I chanted. Sanjing said with a hint of ridicule that his son had been serious and studious since he was a child, and these spells were one of the few things he didn't have to learn. But when you were young, your father taught you, and you were like this, right?
"I understand. Genma nodded, at this moment he regretted that he didn't study hard, "But I can't remember those spells." Genma was a little embarrassed to say.
"It's okay, these spells don't need a fixed rhyme, they just need to be mindful. Sami smiled, he was like this when he was young.
Turning back to the topic, Sani continued, "The power of Tokiwa is a gift from all things, and if you want to fully awaken, you must become the guardian of nature's balance. ”
Genma nodded, this is not a high request.
"And this one for you. Sanjing handed over a check, and Genma, who had an estimate of his family's savings, saw that it was almost all the money that could be embezzled by his family.
"Isn't this a good way to empty your family?"
"The most precious thing in the family, the power of Changpan that has accumulated ten generations of people, is given to you, what is this? Don't be confused when the time comes, waste the power of Changpan in vain, not to mention it, and make excuses that it is not enough money. ”
"Thank you! I'll make it!" Genma felt as if something was running down the corner of his eye・・・・・・
