Mu Sheng nodded and said, "Your ancestors have great wisdom. It's just that I still don't understand a little, why didn't your ancestors cultivate the younger generation in the village in advance? In that case, wouldn't it be as panicked as it is now? ”

Qi Qi patted his head and said, "When Liukaryan came up just now, I forgot to talk about it." Before, because of his grandfather, the ancestor spent all his efforts on him, and it can be said that he taught him all his skills. It is said that my grandfather was very smart, and he was able to draw inferences from others, and he quickly learned something. The old ancestor was very happy and devoted himself to training, and when his grandfather was in his twenties, he was already the leader of the young generation in Yanyun Eighteen Villages. ”

When she said this, there was a little pride and a little loss on her face, and Mu Sheng and Liukayan listened quietly. Qi Qi continued: "Grandfather thinks that he has some ability, so he wants to go outside like his ancestor. The old ancestor refused at the beginning, thinking that his grandfather was not good at learning and not yet going out, but he couldn't stand his grandfather's soft grinding and hard bubbles, and finally agreed. Grandfather came back after five years of wandering outside, and after coming back, his temperament changed greatly, he became taciturn, and he practiced spells more and more hard and seriously, almost except for eating and sleeping is practicing hard, and ten years later, he won the first place in the competition of the younger generation of Yanyun Eighteen Villages. Then go down again. ”

Liukayan suddenly sighed when he heard this, it seems that the whole village seems to know about Grandfather's affairs. Sure enough, I heard Qi Qi say: "This trip down the mountain is another ten years, but this time when I came back, my grandfather was seriously injured and dying, if it wasn't for the old ancestor to save him, I'm afraid he would have lost his life." After more than a year on the sickbed, he got better, and after he recovered, he began to study and practice spells, and after twenty years, he finally passed the competition in the village and obtained the qualification of a teacher. ”

Mu Sheng interjected and asked, "Hey, can there be several witches in a village?"

Qi Qi nodded and said, "Yes, but only the high priest can live in the ancestral temple and be worshipped, and the other witches are all at home, and they have to participate in the work, and they will only come out when they hold large events or encounter wars." And each of them will find their own heirs. ”

"I see. "At this point, Mu Sheng can be regarded as having a general understanding of the witch system of the Oriole clan.

After obtaining the qualification of a teacher, my grandfather had the idea of going out of the mountain again, but he was stopped by the ancestor and asked him to start a family before he could go down the mountain again. Later, I had a father. She told the two of them about the history of the family.

"When my father was ten years old, my grandfather had the idea of going out of the mountains again, and he never came back. Speaking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little sad. But he quickly continued: "My father has no talent for learning witchcraft, and my ancestor has been religious for a long time, but he has not made much progress, and he has not even been able to pass the competition and obtain the qualification of a teacher, until my father got married and gave birth to me, and my ancestor found that I had some talent in this area like my grandfather, so he continued to teach me." However, the old ancestor is old, and it is quite difficult to teach me. After speaking, she sighed.

Mu Sheng pinched his fingers and calculated: "Your ancestor was born to your grandfather in a hundred years old, and your grandfather was also your father who was born in his eighties, even if his father was born in his eighties, then doesn't your ancestor still have more than two hundred years old to teach you? Then how old are you now?" Mu Sheng asked suspiciously.

Qi Qi and Liukayan glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled: "You are really not from our ancestral state. We have the Ori people, and although it is impossible for everyone to live so long like our ancestors, it stands to reason that each person can live for three or four hundred years. It's basically the same as the cultivators of Nanhua Kingdom, but although our life expectancy is long, haven't you noticed that all the people in Zuzhou have children that are not so easy to give birth?"

Mu Sheng was stunned for a moment, he didn't pay attention to it before, but when he was asked by the two of them at this moment, he realized that he had been in Zuzhou for so long, whether it was in Beiguo Village or Gyeonggi City, and he really didn't find any family that had given birth to a child.

Seeing that Mu Sheng didn't answer, she knew that he was thinking, so she continued: "So my grandfather is not my father who was born in his eighties, but also gave birth to my father when he was in his hundreds. And my father because he was never able to learn witchcraft, in order not to disappoint his ancestors, he held his breath and kept learning, so he did not marry a wife and have children, until the ancestors urged him several times to complete the marriage. So by the time I was born, my ancestors were indeed old. ”

"Then your father is also a teacher?" asked Mu Sheng.

Qi Qi was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and his voice was much quieter: "That's not it, he hasn't taken the test a few times." ”

"But Uncle Lai is quite good at archery and hunting, and we all admire him! Every time I go out hunting, as long as my uncle is there, I can return with a full load. Liukaryan immediately added.

"It seems that my uncle's talent is in this. Mu Sheng smiled.

He nodded: "Isn't it, since he found out that his ancestor had placed his hope of learning witchcraft on me, he breathed a sigh of relief and completely devoted himself to his favorite hunting." ”

"This time we went to steal honey, not because we wanted to learn from my uncle and taste the taste of hunting success," Liukaryan smiled at him.

Qi Mi's face couldn't help but blush when she heard this, and she hurriedly said: "Although this time is a bit miserable, we will definitely retreat next time." ”

Liukayan said with a bitter face: "How can there be a next time, my Eminem said, I will never follow you to steal honey again." ”

Mu Sheng smiled: "Since your ancestor has put the hope of witchcraft on you, I don't think you should waste any more time to other places, and you can't live up to her expectations." Well, give me three days to learn the language?"

"You can teach us in three days?" asked Liukayan in surprise.

"I don't know if you can learn or not, but I can learn. Mu Sheng smiled.

"Ahh

Mu Shengdao: "You don't have spiritual power, your divine sense can't be released, naturally you can't understand it, don't talk about me, even as long as you cultivate to the Sanhua realm, your memory ability will also improve, and you won't be able to remember things." ”

When she heard this, she said happily, "Really? That's great." If that were the case, I would have learned much faster. ”
