Chapter 54: Gu Carving
After dawn, the little clay figurines jumped onto Nuwa's couch and cried out, "Mommy, Mommy", Nuwa was woken up by them, and hugged them all into her arms with a loving face, and one of the little clay figurines that resembled Fuxi jumped into Nuwa's ear and said, "I'm hungry!" Nuwa got up, gave them elixir to drink, and gave them the tree seeds picked by Shennong to eat.
Shennong had just come back from packing up, and when he saw that Nuwa was giving the little clay figure to eat no matter what kind of tree species, he asked, "Some of the trees and flowers and leaves I picked back can be eaten, and some can't, so be careful that you eat them." As he spoke, a few small clay figurines began to vomit. Shennong hurriedly took the herbs and boiled them into juice and gave them to drink.
Nuwa said, "Then you have to tell me what you can give them to eat and what you can't give them." ”
Shennong said: "I have hundreds of tree species and flowers here, how can I tell you them one by one?"
Nuwa said, "Then it's better to tell them!" Nuwa pointed to the little clay people, "Let them memorize one by themselves, whether they can eat it, how to use it, they have learned it themselves, won't they eat themselves badly?"
Shennong thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he found all the little clay figurines, and there were hundreds of them. When asked who would like to memorize the plants, many of the little clay figurines jumped up and running, while others turned and ran away.
The little clay figurines are also a little older than yesterday, and Nuwa is holding a few little clay figurines and whispering together.
"Mom, you can do some more, and we'll play with you together. ”
When Nuwa heard this, she was very happy, so she took some of the little clay figurines to the lake again, and added water, soil, water, and soil together, so that Nuwa's neck was sore, her hands were numb, and she pinched I don't know how many little clay figurines were placed, and they were all placed in the most prosperous place by the lake, and then cast spells.
The little clay figurines, who had grown up, jumped up and down on Nuwa, and kept talking to her, which made Nuwa laugh from time to time.
Just when Shennong explained the use of trees and grass blades to the little clay figures, Fu Xi and Wen Xuan finished practicing their swords and prepared to go to the mountains where they found iron ore yesterday to continue mining and prepare for iron smelting. As soon as a few little clay figurines heard that they were going out, they jumped on the shoulders of Wen Xuan and Fu Xi, and they also wanted to go together. Fu Xi and Wen Xuan set off with them.
That mountain, called Luwu Mountain by Fuxi, compared with the nearby green mountains, this mountain is too obvious because it is bald. Nothing grows on the mountain, bare stones and earth. After Wen Xuan described the iron ore to Fu Xi, Fu Xi thought of this.
Wen Xuan took the little clay figure on his shoulder, and circled around Luwu Mountain several times all the way, and was excited to find that there were not only iron ore, but also other metal deposits here.
Just as Wen Xuan was about to use his spiritual power to find ore, he suddenly heard a baby's cry. This place is desolate, and there is no grass and trees, where does the cry of a baby come from? Wen Xuan stared, magnified his hearing, and confirmed that it was a baby's cry, but this cry came from the air.
Wen Xuan followed the prestige, and a huge bird circled down, and the little clay figures were so frightened that they got directly into Wen Xuan's clothes. When the bird flew closer, Wen Xuan found that the bird looked like an eagle, but it had horns on its head and fierce eyes, and it seemed that it was an enemy rather than a friend.
Wen Xuan shouted: "Fuxi, be careful!"
I heard Fu Xi's voice in the distance: "It's a Gu eagle, Xiao Taiyi, you have to be careful!"
The Gu Eagle seemed to understand the conversation between the two people, and only hovered in the air, not too close, but the dagger-like eyes did not relax at all.
Wen Xuan injected spiritual power into the wooden sword and attacked the Gu Eagle with sword qi. The Gu Eagle only flew slightly higher, and then dodged Wen Xuan's attack.
"He's a tough guy. Wen Xuan said in his heart, those little clay figures were trembling in Wen Xuan's clothes, Wen Xuan patted the placket in front of him, and comforted them: "Don't be afraid." ”
The Gu Eagle hovered in the air for a while, obviously having made its choice, the target it was going to attack was Wen Xuan, who looked weaker. The Gu Eagle stretched out its claws and pressed down vertically towards Wen Xuan, who countered it with a wooden sword, but was overwhelmed by the huge force and rolled down the hillside again. At this time, the Gu Eagle fell to the ground, calmly and vigilantly looking at Fu Xi who was coming not far away, the Gu Eagle was much taller than Fu Xi.
Fu Xi held a wooden sword and did not rush to attack. However, the Gu Eagle rushed forward in a few steps, and then pecked at Fu Xi with his beak in a wrong step, and Fu Xi dodged to dodge the attack, but the wooden sword had already broken in response.
Fu Xi pinched the fire trick and threw the fire at the Gu Eagle, and the Gu Eagle flew up to dodge, but still refused to stay away.
Fu Xi shouted: "Xiao Taiyi, are you okay?" Wen Xuan had already fallen and lost consciousness, but when Fu Xi screamed, he suddenly came to his senses, lying on the ground and replied loudly: "I'm okay!"
The Gu Eagle was attracted by Wen Xuan's voice, Fu Xi saw the opportunity to take the branch, injected spiritual power, jumped up and stabbed it into the Gu Eagle's eyes. The Gu Eagle was stabbed in the eye, let out a terrible baby-like cry, and flew away.
Wen Xuan stood up, and a sharp pain came from his right leg, "It's over, eighty percent of the bones are broken." I had to sit on the ground again and call Fu Xi to come and help him.
Fu Xi ran over with a nervous face and looked at him, "Little Taiyi, what's wrong with you?"
"My leg is broken. ”
Fu Xi touched Wen Xuan's aching leg, and it was indeed a broken bone. Wen Xuan kept hissing and inhaling in pain.
"No, little Taiyi. ”
"Why shouldn't it?"
"Linghua is the essence of life, the most capable of giving birth to all things, you yourself are Linghua, this little injury should be healed in an instant. ”
Wen Xuan was a little surprised, "Is what you said true?"
The little clay figurines poked their heads out of their robes and looked at Fu Xi in surprise.
"Yes, little Taiyi, you haven't learned to use your own Linghua yet. ”
"You mean, I'm hungry in the granary?"
"Hahaha, little Taiyi, you're very smart. ”
"Then how should I use Linghua? ”
Fu Xi thought for a while and said, "According to my observations in the past few days, this new world created by Pangu is scattered everywhere, in order to nurture all things and give birth to the four seas. But you see, we have encountered quite a few fierce beasts, and they attack not only small creatures, but also us. Therefore, I think that the spirit of this life and vitality has both the power to nurture life and the power to kill, that is, the so-called life is life, and death and life are also called life. ”
"You're saying that Linghua still has the power to kill and be violent?"
"Yes, so these two opposing forces, you have to learn to use them to the fullest, to harness them, to achieve your desires. ”
Wen Xuan meditated, "There is such a huge amount of energy hidden in my body, which can not only nurture the creatures of the world, but also violently destroy, oh my God, oh my God." It's so dizzying. ”
"But you say, I'm going to learn it myself, isn't there any way to teach me?"
"Xiao Taiyi, although I have collected some Linghua, I have not yet realized the method of using it, not to mention that your Linghua is contained in the body, or you are Linghua yourself, how to use it depends on yourself. ”
