Grand Meditation Chapter 2. Starry night
That night, one white and one black, beside the small river and stream, under the stars at night, beside the firewood.
"Adu, can you tell me the origin of your power?" Ah Xun was clearly very interested in this.
Wataru: "That power comes from Equipment, and Equipment is divided into three categories: Ghost Equipment, Demon Equipment, and Spirit Equipment. Ghost weapons are divided into strengthened and violent, and the demon weapon has six systems, namely the fire system, the thunder system, the flowing water system, the breeze system, the holy earth system and the spirit wood system, and the spirit weapon is composed of growth and fusion types and dead soul types, all kinds of weapons themselves have their own unique spiritual power, and when they resonate with the master's spiritual power, they will produce incredible power, and mine belongs to the demon weapon Yan Huo system, called the Immortal Ring, but my ability to the Immortal Ring has not yet been developed. ”
Ah Xun has been practicing spiritual power for some special reasons since he was a child, and the matter of weapons is new and full of unknowns for him.
Wataru continued, "However, usually the demon weapon does not get much recognition, because among the three weapons, the ghost weapon is powerful, the spirit weapon is flexible and changeable, and the demon weapon has a wide range of attacks, but the mental power consumption is too large when used, three hundred years ago, the enemies faced by humans in the race war are stronger than the human race itself, and the spiritual power consumption of the demon weapon has become a burden, so until now, it belongs to the rarest and least popular weapon." ”
"Hey, then why do you still use magic weapons?" Ah Xun continued to ask.
"The ability of the weapon is determined by the master's own development, there are disadvantages but also has its own advantages, and the ability development of the demon weapon is becoming more and more perfect over time, and this is my family's ancestral weapon whether I like it or not, it will be inherited by me, so I also have something to ask you, Ah Xun, why did you go to Grand City?" Du changed the topic in a moment.
Ah Xun frowned, got up and went back to the house, "I'll show you something." So saying, he went to the house and took out a black box.
"There is a letter in this box, the signature of the letter is sent to me by my father, and there is a special spiritual power in this letter itself, it has been more than three months since I got this letter, and this spiritual power has not weakened at all......" After speaking, Ah Xun handed the letter to Du and asked him to help look at this special letter.
Du carefully read the letter itself and its contents, and a strong spiritual force attached to the letter, and the content was very simple, allowing Ah Xun to participate in this year's Grand Concentration Camp assessment, and there was nothing special about it.
"Ah Xun, are you sure that this is given to you by your father, such a letter can be forged by any person, is this spiritual power really strong, could there be a conspiracy in it? And what about your family? "Wataru feels that this letter is not simple, at least this force is not simple.
"I came here when I was eight years old, I can be regarded as an orphan, maybe the only living relative is my father, so I plan to go to Gran, my spiritual cultivation since I was a child has also been exercised by my father with me, no matter what, I want to go to Gran Maybe I can find the answer." Ah Xun's heart is very complicated, but only when he finds his father can he solve the puzzle, he really doesn't understand that his father has put himself in this ghost place for eleven years, regardless of why.
"Ah Xun, do you know what a concentration camp is!? That kind of place is only for outlaws and people who have been driven to a dead end, so you have to think clearly about exchanging your life for your future! Wataru blurted out that he had heard too many rumors about the concentration camp, that place was purgatory on earth, and he didn't want this friend he had just met to risk his life to go to the Grand concentration camp.
"Well, I have actually learned about the concentration camp before, the empire has established a total of sixteen regional concentration camps, the assessment is held once a year, the area of each assessment is different, and the assessment content is different, this year's assessment is in the concentration camp in Grand City, I have been practicing since I was a child, in fact, I might as well give it a try, looking for my father is on the one hand, and part of the reason I want to test my strength, at least I thought so before I met you." Ah Xun said his thoughts to Wado with a serious face.
"Okay, I'll go with you to see it, lest you really go to die." Du was a little helpless to return the letter to Ah Xun, and he could only look at him by himself, in the end, Du is actually very affectionate and kind, these Ah Xun know this, so let Ferry go with him, there is indeed his selfish side here.
Ah Xun was still very grateful after listening to Du's words, after all, sometimes a person is really lonely, that feeling makes you have nowhere to complain, Qizai They also need to rely on themselves, and some words can't be said to them, and now he has a friend who can talk, which is not easy.
"Are you hungry? I'll cook a few dishes and we'll have a drink at the bar! "Ah Xun wants to have a meal with Wataru to commemorate the first day of their friendship.
"You just asked me now, I haven't eaten for a day." Wataru jokingly replied to Ah Xun.
And Ah Xun has lived alone since he was a child, and his cooking skills are naturally not a problem, after all, the way of survival is his strength, and he began to prepare ingredients at the moment.
Although the hut is small, but there is everything inside, Ah Xun began to get busy, and Du was still deeply touched by the side, today made him unforgettable enough, and he was going to have a journey with Ah Xun next, and the traveler himself was full of expectations for the unknown journey.
"Adu, can you elaborate on the race war you just mentioned? I'm very interested in this aspect! Ah Xun was busy talking to Du.
"That's a long story, so I'll cut it short! About 300 years ago, human beings were in the most passive period, the vampires of the blood clan used humans as food, the living dead of the corpse clan used humans as research tools, some orcs and humans such as werewolves of the beast clan competed with each other for the place of survival, and the wizards of the witch clan also regarded humans as sacrifices. Du paused halfway through speaking, and helped Ah Xun wash the dishes.
"In that dark era, there was finally a person who stood up, named Ya and Hua, he found that some strange beasts were full of special powers, and then he found a way to hunt and kill such strange beasts and eat them, and over time, his body was guided out of a special power of his own, which was the earliest human spiritual power user, and then his five senses and body changed, greatly strengthening his combat ability." Wataru continued.
"At that time, he told the people around him about the method of eating alien beasts to trigger human potential, and the more it spread, some humans also triggered their own power, and after that, some potential humans can also trigger it through exercise, which is the origin of spiritual power."
"After you have mental power, can you fight against other races?" Without waiting for Du to finish speaking, Ah Xun couldn't hold back and asked.
"Of course it still can't, because these other races also use spiritual power, and they will use it earlier than us, especially they have developed a variety of abilities on top of spiritual power, and in response to this situation, the man named Yahehua is really a genius, he and his twelve disciples made the first batch of weapons through special processing of various beasts and some rare metals, and let these twelve people preach to each other, connecting various tribes and villages and other human forces in the Ohei continent to resist fate, And the coalition forces linked by various forces, under the leadership and guidance of Ya and Hua, finally gradually defeated the other races, this is the content of the historical record. Wataru finished the general content of the race war.
"And after that? What about Yahehua? Now the emperor of our Ohei Empire is Paruch Spainbach, the Blainbach family. Ah Xun asked rhetorically.
"There are a lot of rumors about what happened after that, the most said is that after the victory, the coalition split Yahehua was assassinated by a certain force in the coalition army, and there are also rumors that one of the twelve disciples was killed by the disciples, and some people even say that Yahehua died in the race war, all in all, there is no unified statement, and even this history seems to have been deliberately erased." Du's answer made Ah Xun a little intriguing.
"This person named Yahehua is really amazing, not only discovered the use of human spiritual power, but also invented all kinds of weapons." Ah Xun's sincere admiration for this great genius is not only for his discoveries and inventions, but also because he stands up for the survival and freedom of mankind and is a retrograde of the times.
In the same way, Wataru thinks so, but he is not thinking about the person itself, but where exactly he has gone? Why did such a great man quietly disappear into the long river of history? Wataru especially wants to know.
"Adu is ready to eat." In the small talk, Ah Xun has already made a table of dishes.
A plate of boiled beef, a plate of saliva chicken, a vegetarian cold dish and a bowl of tomato egg drop soup.
Under the starry night, the two of them drank together, Ah Xun's homemade fruit wine was very suitable for Du's appetite, he knew a lot of things in the exchange with Du tonight, he hadn't been so happy for a long time, so he made a table of dishes, and he usually ate something casually and sent it away, but now he has a feeling at this moment, a strong feeling! He's going to do something earth-shattering with this handsome companion in front of him in a black trench coat and black-rimmed glasses!
That's right, Ah Xun has never been a person who follows the rules, he is a retrograde in this slum earthen kiln village, and he will go down a different path for survival and freedom, even if he doesn't have that strange letter, he will leave this place, because he hates bondage.
What about crossing? He is a solo traveler, traveling alone, living alone, alone on the opposite side of everything in the journey, although sometimes the same loneliness, but he likes to be quiet, content to do what he wants to do, it doesn't matter to him what the trend of the times is, there is nothing bad about a person, he is a clear stream, the strife outside is just a spectator for Du, he just wants to be a spectator.
But now it's different, the young man in white in front of him feels like a countercurrent, unruly but reasonable, he really wants to see what it will be like to travel with this young man named Ah Xun, maybe there will be a different story next.
"Ah Xun, your hat and folding knife will be returned to you." Wataru took out the things that Ah Xun had left behind from the inner pocket of his clothes.
"You actually got it back! When I was dizzy and knocked to the ground by you? Ah Xun laughed at himself.
"Your pupil color is really special, the red is special." Wataru said.
"Haha, let me tell you a secret, I can sense the breath of vampires and the living dead, this ability often makes me frightened, and I can't sleep well even at night, at first my body can't stand this kind of mental pressure, and over time I slowly get used to it, after all, I am also a user of mental power, and my physique is different from ordinary people, but there are still side effects, my hair slowly turns white, and the color of my eyes also turns red, so it looks weird." Ah Xun said this in a very calm tone.
"Hey, did you comprehend this ability through your own cultivation? I've never heard of anything like this. Wataru's eyes widened, and the chopsticks in his hand stopped.
Xun: "No, I don't know how my father taught me when I was five years old, and although I hate it, it can also keep me out of danger. ”
Watar: "It also makes sense, vampires are the product of human mutation, and the living dead are anti-creatures who have come back from the dead, and they are not strictly human, they are truly alien races. And other races such as orcs and witches are more or less another evolution of humans. ”
Xun: "But I think my father has other intentions that are not just to keep me away from the threat of foreign races, so I want to find my father and ask him face to face about the doubts that have been accumulating for eleven years. ”
Du understood Ah Xun's thoughts, the problem of weapons, strange letters, the origin of the concentration camp, the legend of Ya and Hua and the strange man in white in front of him, he talked a lot with him tonight, he used to be alone, and even Du himself didn't know that he was also a good communicator.
"Ah Xun, will we leave early tomorrow morning? I'll go back to my place to prepare after dinner, and how about we meet at the entrance of the town at seven o'clock tomorrow morning? Wataru wanted to reconfirm the time of the send.
"No problem, just pack your luggage and leave at seven o'clock tomorrow morning." Ah Xun replied in the affirmative.
"Seven, are they okay? I'm afraid they'll be upset. Wataru asked tentatively.
"Actually, I told you a week ago, everyone is reluctant, but they didn't say it, although this group of little ghosts is not very old, they are very strong, I myself have to leave here for faith, but I have agreed with the little ghosts, whether it is a year, two years, or five years, ten years, I will definitely come back, and when the time comes, maybe this country will change in this era." Ah Xun's expression was very firm when he said this.
"The last bit of fruit wine, let's touch a glass for one person and a half!" He picked up again.
Wataru: "Okay. ”
"Bang!"
The retrograde journey of the two is about to begin. (To be continued)
