Chapter 81: The Scythe Is a Farmer's Tool

The wolf spirits chose to live here precisely because there are many poisonous insects and beasts in this forest, which is a natural barrier. After leaving the wolf spirit camp, Wu Zhizai didn't dare to stay in the woods for long, so even if Su Xiaowen's injuries were not well, he had to use teleportation to leave here.

Wu Zhizai could only control the direction of the black dot mark, and as for what the black dot marked, he couldn't predict this.

As soon as the three of them appeared, they saw an extremely ferocious tiger in front of them. A mouthful of fangs salivated and gave a warning roar that was chilling. Behind the tiger, several cubs snuggled up to each other.

It was precisely because he didn't know where the black dot fell that Wu Zhizai immediately shot a few black arrows the moment he appeared, just in case. Seeing that the tiger was about to pounce, Wu Zhizai and the three disappeared in an instant.

This forest is huge, and Wu Zhizai and the others have been moving forward in the direction of Ge Hu's finger. From early morning to noon, the sun was shining, and the official road had not yet arrived. Su Xiaowen's face became more and more ugly, although he didn't say it, Wu Zhizai could feel his pain.

At this time, he happened to come to a river, and Wu Zhizai decided to stop and rest. There is water by the river, if there is any danger, Lan Ruo can also help.

During this time, he lived with Katsugo, who told him some things to pay attention to when living in the forest. For example, when resting by the river, never go near the river without any preparation. Because I don't know what kind of underwater animals will lie in ambush by the river, in order to ambush the animals that come to drink water, waiting for an opportunity to prey on them.

Wu Zhizai sat on the ground, took out the water bag, and ate dry food while drinking water, and he kept his eyes on the river, alert to the dangers lurking underwater. He saw a huge head lying on the bank of the river, not far to his right, motionless as if dead. But Wu Zhizai knew that it was not dead, and if it did, it would be surrounded by many flies, or it would be carried away directly by the current.

Wu Zhizai looked at it and found that it was the head of a snake. He did the math, and the head was half the size of his own body. As for the snake body, Wu Zhizai felt that it was very long, and as for how long, it was impossible to estimate.

The head of the snake was blue, no different from the aquatic plants by the river, and it was really difficult to distinguish if you didn't look closely.

There was such a giant snake lurking nearby, and Wu Zhizai couldn't feel at ease. Picked up a rock from nearby and threw it at it, hitting the serpent's head with unmistakable accuracy. But the giant snake was still motionless, and Wu Zhizai smiled: "It's really calm." Interesting, okay, I'll see how far you can endure. ”

As he spoke, he threw a few more stones.

Su Xiaowen didn't stop him, in his eyes, Wu Zhizai was a child, and he was naturally a little curious about everything. It's just a giant snake, and it can't be beaten or escaped.

Two more stones hit the serpent's head, and this time the serpent finally moved, silently submerging into the water. There was very little movement, only two ripples left on the surface of the water, and then it was calm again.

Wu Zhizai was a little disappointed, "I thought it would be furious, and then the whole snake came out of the water, so that I could see how big the snake was." ”

Lan Ruoke didn't have such a mood as him, she followed Wu Zhizai's gaze and saw the huge head. She weighed in her heart whether she could win the fight if she met her, or whether she could escape.

The river is quiet and peaceful, there are no big trees around, and the wind blows in early autumn, which is very comfortable. The forest is really a strange place, and it can still give him this feeling, even though it is full of dangers. Or not the strangeness of the forest, but the strangeness of oneself. Wu Zhizai felt that he was still strange that he could still be so comfortable in such a dangerous place.

Once upon a time, the forest gave him the feeling of being stuffy, full of insects and ants, and often biting the people and wild animals that walked in the forest. The skin of the beast is rough and thick, and the effect is not great. But people are different, how can those with fine skin and tender flesh suffer from the bites of insects and ants.

Those people, he thought, were not as fortunate as he was, in his position. Watch the sun set over the towering trees, watch the quiet river surface by the empty river, and enjoy the cool breeze of early autumn. He considers himself very lucky, and this little luck is very important in the current situation.

Wu Zhizai believes that it is not advisable to hurry up now, which will aggravate Su Xiaowen's injuries. Just teleported, Su Xiaowen was very uncomfortable.

Wu Zhizai said: "I don't think we need to rush so much, and we don't have to go to the city guest house. We walked slowly in the forest, which would also help Brother Wen to recuperate. Let's stay in the forest tonight, and then continue our journey tomorrow. Tomorrow you can't get out of the forest, so you will continue to spend the night in the forest. ”

The three of them had the experience of living in the forest before, although there were many poisonous insects and beasts in the forest, but these dangers were much safer than the Dharma Protector Temple outside, and he felt that it was much safer to face the poisonous insects and beasts in the forest.

The forest was densely wooded, and it was not easy for the three of them to find an open place. Until dark, the three of them couldn't find a place. In the end, the three of them had to rest under a towering tree.

The tree was huge, there were no other trees around, and the view was empty, except for a low plant in front of it. The reason why the plant is low is because it is low compared to the towering trees. In fact, this plant is not low, it is as tall as Wu Zhizai. What danger would there be in this low plant, it was already dark and he couldn't see it.

He drove the Wind Spirit Method, and the wind blade cut down all the plants in front of him, and his vision became wider. Wu Zhizai used Su Xiaowen's long sword to dig a shallow pit in the clearing to ensure that when the fire broke out, the flames would not spread out. Lan Ruo picked up dead leaves and branches from nearby and used them to make a fire.

There was no prey today, so the three of them had to eat the dry food that Ge Hu had prepared for them.

After eating and drinking, Lan Ruo healed Su Xiaowen's injuries. In addition to internal injuries, Su Xiaowen also had external injuries such as broken arms. Although Lan Ruo's healing method does not play a particularly big role, it will eventually have an effect after a long time of slow treatment.

The beasts in the forest are ferocious, and now Su Xiaowen is unable to move. Therefore, Wu Zhizai "messed around" in a radius of about ten zhang, and drove away many small animals, lest those predators come to hunt for food at that time. Wu Zhizai was on a large rock and encountered a black bear with several cubs beside him.

As soon as the black bear saw someone coming, it roared and attacked. Wu Zhizai wrapped the black qi around it, the black bear had no spiritual magic, and looked at his huge bear paw blankly, Wu Zhizai took this opportunity to kick it a few times. Then, Wu Zhizai picked up a little black bear and flew up with the method of locking the spirit, and when the black bear saw this, he was frightened and rushed over angrily. Wu Zhizai kept flying in front, and when he saw that the distance was a little far, he put the little black bear down.

Wu Zhizai flew over the black bear's head and hid in the shadows, wanting to see if the black bear would come back. Thankfully, the black bear didn't come back. It seems that it also understands that this direction has its own, so it does not dare to come back.

Wu Zhizai felt from the bottom of his heart that An Youming's demon spirit was indeed more powerful than the wind spirit method. The demon spirit does not have the slightest ability to attack, but he is powerful precisely because he has no ability to attack. The method of destroying the soul, the method of locking the spirit, teleportation and the blade of the soulbreaker. These are the abilities of escape and self-preservation, but if they are paired with the short sword in their hands, the lethality is greater than that of other spiritual methods. Because with the cooperation of the demon spirit, he can defeat or kill the opponent in an instant.

Wu Zhizai said curiously: "An Youming, your spirit method obviously has no attack ability at all, it is more for self-preservation, why do you want to call it 'Demon Spirit', a name like the evil demon's outer path? I think it should be called a name that conforms to this spiritual method, such as 'Guardian Spirit', or 'Star Spirit'." In some storybooks, people have good wishes for the stars. ”

An Youming emerged and said, "It's very simple." Think about it, all the spiritual methods in this world have offensive power. Even if it is a forging method, it can forge weapons to attack others. But my spiritual method is different, and my spiritual method can absorb and destroy other people's spiritual methods. In this world, except for me, there is no one who has this kind of spiritual method. Therefore, in the eyes of the world, this spiritual method of mine is an evil demonic way.

"It's like you. Everyone thinks that people are born different from noble and low, and that the beast spirit must be a slave, a talking animal. But you think that there is no distinction between high and low in human beings, and that beast spirits are also human beings, and they have the right to live in this world on an equal footing. Therefore, in the eyes of those powerful people, these words are disrespectful words and a provocation to secular etiquette. And you, Wu Zhizai, are a deviant demon outsider. ”

Wu Zhizai touched his chin and nodded, "What you said, that's indeed the case." You are the 'Demon Outer Path', and I am also the 'Demon Outer Path'. The two of us are quite cooperative. ”

An Youming said: "In fact, the so-called evil demon is because it is different from the ethics and morality that everyone thinks. If in the world where you were originally located, I am afraid that everyone in this world is a 'demonic alien'. No, you can't say that, it's too absolute, it should be that the vast majority of people are 'demonic aliens'. ”

Wu Zhizai laughed, "I used to think that the evil demons and foreign ways represented all evil, and they were the bad side. Now it seems that the evil demon is only relative. Also, how can there be absolutes in the world? In this feudal world, those who rebelled against the court were not necessarily bad people. Those who are officials in the imperial court are not necessarily good people. ”

Wu Zhizai asked again: "An Youming, why is your Soul Breaking Blade a scythe? Why don't you make it look like a knife or a sword?"

"Because the sickle is a farmer's tool. The knife and sword are the weapons of the murderer. ”

It was the first time Wu Zhizai had heard someone say that the sickle was just a tool for farmers. But come to think of it, it's true. It's just that they, the children who grew up in the city, didn't particularly notice that the farmers used sickles to harvest rice.

In his impression, the scythe was presented to him more as a weapon of the legendary god of death. Death wields a scythe and reaps the life of the world.

The scythe is indeed in line with the image of the Grim Reaper, holding the long hilt of the scythe in his right hand, and the huge scythe against the neck of the enemy. Gently pull and reap the lives of your enemies. It is like a sickle in the hand of a farmer, harvesting the rice that ripens in autumn.
