Chapter 5, Li Wu
Hundreds of human heads are hung on the castle tower as wind chimes, and this scenery is indeed a bit too exciting.
Pan Long feels that if it is placed in the civilized society of the previous life, this scene is probably enough to drag film and television works into the category of "not suitable for children", and if it is placed in animation works, it will definitely be marked with countless mosaics. After all, Han Feng is young and has no experience in the rivers and lakes, so it is normal to be a little scared after watching it.
He himself is not afraid, but he has just experienced a river of blood and corpses all over the field not long ago-and almost all of them were killed by himself, which is higher than the scene in front of him.
Seeing that Han Feng seemed to be a little trembling, he hurriedly tried to divert his attention, dragged Han Feng to find a middle-aged soldier who looked more kind, and asked about the origin of these heads.
"Where do they come from? The soldier said nonchalantly, "No matter how high their skills are in their lives and how many big and important crimes they have committed, in the end they will only hang on this tower for a few more days or a few days less." It's all the same, it's not worth mentioning. β
"That'...... Are there any masters worth introducing?" Pan Long asked.
The soldier casually pointed to the small building with a drum on the edge of the tower: "The heads of the masters are all hanging over there." The innate realm of all colors. β
Pan Long and Han Feng looked in the direction of his finger, and saw that under the eaves of the small building, there were twenty or thirty human heads hanging scattered and scattered.
"This ...... So much?!" Han Feng was startled.
Congenital masters are not common, the people of the north are martial arts and masters, and Dingfeng Town is only two congenital masters. There is only one drum tower in this area, and there are twenty or thirty heads of innate masters, isn't it...... Isn't there more than ten times the number of Dingfeng Town?!
Pan Long was curious, although these heads have been pickled, they have been a little deformed, and they can't see their appearance very clearly, but in any case, they are all a group of innate masters!
dragged Han Feng, who pretended to be calm, to the drum tower, and they were about to take a closer look, but they stopped suddenly.
Not far away, a general in golden heavy armor was sitting in the shadows, his eyes closed, and he didn't know whether he was asleep or closed his eyes to recuperate.
The man was sitting in such a good position that he couldn't see it unless he approached it. The two of them also approached and found him sitting there.
Seeing him sitting there, the two immediately stopped, not daring to move forward.
They are not rookies who do not understand military regulations, and they know that it is illegal for civilians to trespass on city towers. At the worst, he was reprimanded and fined, and at worst, he was punished with a whip. Although generally speaking, as long as there is no war, no one takes this rule to heart - the castle tower in Dingfeng Town is always casually climbed - but if you meet a more serious officer with a relatively high official position, then even if you are beaten, there is nowhere to reason.
But they also knew the armor on that person's body.
It was the Great Armor of the Ichthyosaurus, the armor of the captain of Great Xia.
The military attachΓ©s of Great Xia are divided into three major ranks, one is called general, the second is called captain, and the third is called miscellaneous lieutenant. The rank of the lieutenant is between four, five or six, and varies according to the specific official position and title. But in any case, there are six grades at worst. Most of these lieutenants were highly skilled and experienced, and they were often appointed as military commanders in important military towns such as the Jincheng Defense Line. If necessary, they can even mobilize the forces of all the surrounding towns and organize an emergency operation for the army.
The biggest feature of the captain's armor is that it has a half-fish and half-dragon decoration, and the specific decoration is different according to different identities. The two of them didn't know much about these specific doorways, but the relief of the fishtail dragon head on the shoulders of the captain's armor was clear, as long as they were not blind, they could see it.
Han Feng turned his head in shock, looked at Pan Long, and gestured with his eyes: What's the matter? How could there be a lieutenant sitting here?
Pan Long also replied with the same gaze: "You ask me, who do I ask?" How do I know that the military attache of the dignified Jade Gate City will sit in the shadow of the city tower like a ghost!
Han Feng: Isn't it something you want to come and see?
Pan Long: I didn't see him just now!
Han Feng: That soldier tricked us!
Pan Long: Don't think about it so much, before he seems to wake up, let's go!
The two hurriedly turned around and were about to tiptoe away, when a laughing voice came from behind them.
"Two little ghosts, why are you about to leave after a turn? Didn't you say that you want to see those 'masters worth introducing'?"
The two of them turned back stiffly, only to see that the golden-armored lieutenant had already stood up, put away the mask of his helmet, and revealed a face that was too handsome to tell his age.
"A certain brave captain Li Wu, who was ordered by the emperor to guard Yumen City, came all the way from the imperial capital day and night, and ran for seven days and seven nights. When we got there, a certain family thought that they could finally take a break, so they sat down and dozed off, but it turned out to make you see a joke. β
He smiled and said, "Do you have anything to eat? If you have anything to eat, give a full meal to a certain family, and a certain family will tell you the origin of the heads on this drum tower." β
"How many of them were cut down by a certain family when they were in the army here!"
Speaking of which, can Pan Long and Han Feng still have any choice?
Of course not.
The only thing they were glad about was that they had a lot of dry food and wine with them.
Li Wu looks handsome, but he looks handsome when he eats, but he is quite vicious and vicious.
The wolf's dry, which had been blown by the sun and wind, was hard enough to be used to open a scoop for the enemy, and he could bite it off with a bite, rattling and chewing it like sawing wood.
One sip can put down the liquor of an ordinary strong man outside the northern land, he drank it all as white water, and drank two or three catties in one go, not to mention drunk, and he couldn't even see a little reddish wine on his face.
He just sat under a bunch of heads and ate and drank, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the dry food and wine brought by Pan Long and Han Feng entered his stomach.
Seeing that the two of them couldn't get more to eat, Li Wu burped, stood up again, and sighed: "Ah, I only ate six points full, it's a pity." β
Pan Long and Han Feng's eyes were about to pop out, those things were enough for the two of them to eat for at least five or six days, this captain brother ate in a quarter of an hour, not to mention, he only ate six points full - look at his stomach didn't bulge much, so much jerky and spirits, where did he eat?
Pan Long was more knowledgeable, figured out the reason, and couldn't help asking: "Captain Li, what are you...... Congenital food difference?"
The innate master has four major visions, and the food abnormality is one of them. The master who cultivated this supernatural power ate an amount of food that was different from ordinary people, and he could eat a large amount of food in one meal and digest it quickly, store energy in his body, and he could not eat or drink for several days in a row, relying on the stored energy to live.
This lieutenant has eaten so much in one go, but his belly is not bulging at all, isn't it a manifestation of congenital food abnormality!
Most of the innate masters are like his grandfather, they haven't cultivated a vision, that is the lack of foundation, and they have barely stepped into the innate to reach the limit, and it is difficult to move forward. And his father went one step further and cultivated the qi in the congenital four differences, which is the so-called congenital fetal breath, which can breathe without mouth and nose, and will not be caught in ordinary gas toxins.
I don't know what kind of differences this Lieutenant Li has cultivated......
When Li Wu heard Pan Long's inquiry, he smiled slightly, and said: "A certain family is not talented, and after more than 80 years of cultivation, he has barely eliminated the four differences, and he has to return to his original face and get a glimpse of the principle of heaven and earth." It wasn't just a strange food, but I was really hungry. β
Pan Long was suddenly speechless in shock.
Eliminate the four differences?!Have to return to the original face?!Glimpse the principle of heaven and earth?!
Isn't this the meaning of "back to basics" and "unity between man and nature"?
This handsome captain brother has actually stepped into the realm of real people?!
In the world of Kyushu, whether it is the congenital four differences, the ancestral bloodline, or the demons and monsters, all those whose power is strange and show extraordinary characteristics are collectively called the "Inhuman Realm". The strength of this realm may vary greatly, but as long as you can't restrain your extraordinary characteristics, it is that you can't completely control your power.
If a strong person can completely control his power, unless he is willing, he will not be able to show any extraordinary characteristics, that is, he has returned to the basics and stepped into a new realm, and he can be called a "real person".
There is nothing "abnormal" in the realm of real people, it is nothing more than controlling oneself to sensing heaven and earth, and then mobilizing the power of heaven and earth. This is also the two levels of "returning to the basics" and "the unity of heaven and man".
In popular terms, some people refer to the former as "grandmaster" and the latter as "great grandmaster".
As for how to become an immortal from a real person, then Pan Long doesn't know.
Not only did he not know, but no one knew about the entire Pan family, or even the entire Dingfeng Town. In the whole world, there are probably very few people who know.
Li Wu looked like he was just a handsome big guy, but he didn't expect that he was already a great master of the unity of heaven and man!
Looks...... It's not like it at all......
Seeing Pan Long's shocked face, Li Wu smiled and said, "Actually, that's it, you have to eat, drink and Lazar the same, and you have to fight for fame and fortune." When you are hungry and thirsty, when you have benefits to fight for, let alone a real person, even if you are an immortal, that's just it. β
He said it lightly, but the implication was shocking.
Han Feng also understood at this time, and shouted loudly: "Are you a real person?
He looked at Li Wu in confusion and whispered to himself: "It's not like ah......"
Pan Long praised this in his heart, but he didn't say anything when he thought of it like Han Feng.
Li Wu was amused and asked rhetorically: "Then what do you think a guy in the realm of real people should look like?"
Han Feng thought for a while and said, "Hmm...... Wearing a wide old robe and using a dead branch as a bun, he looks old and thin at first glance, but when you walk in and take a closer look, you will see that his skin is actually smooth and delicate like a baby, there is not a trace of dirt on his body, and his eyes exude a love for life and the pursuit of the truth of all things......"
Li Wu laughed when he was said: "You have heard too much of the storytelling in the teahouse! The real person is nothing more than really grasping his own power, so that his power will not leak out and produce visions." Real people are also human beings, and they also have normal joys, sorrows, and sorrows, who has nothing to do and pretends to be unfathomable all day long!
"Huh?"
"Alright, well, it's too far to talk to you two little ones who are not as big as my son combined. I'll tell you about the human head hanging on this drum tower. β
