84. The only chance
Afraid that Mei Zheren's understanding would be poor, Daddy Taguk deepened his explanation: "To maintain the way of the ice field, you must be clear in body and mind, and you must let yourself be in nature at all times. ”
This answer did not quite fit Mei Zheren's imagination, and he asked: "Is it true that living a good life must not be in line with the way of nature?" ”
"Not really, but in Yangzhou, if you want to live a good life, you have to have faith, and they all joined the church in Yangzhou."
"The church? Is it because of the rejection of the two gods? ”
Daddy Tagk shook his head: "It's not rejection, in fact, although the people of the ice plain believe in the god of nature, our gods do not exist, and the gods themselves have also sent oracles, there are gods without gods, gods are in nature, all are everywhere and everywhere, and the gods of nature have no sustenance." ”
Mei Zheren was even more surprised, because this was different from what he had learned, how could it sound like Huang Lao Wuwei: "Don't we Ice Plains people believe in shamanism?" ”
Daddy Taguk gave a rare sly smile and winked at Me.
"Our ice plain people live so hard, if there is an expedition team and tourists, will we have more money? But let them be willing to come, and not let them wonder what they are doing. There has to be a story that caters to their curiosity, right? ”
Daddy Taguk suddenly turned to the park to sell tickets, and the old man's painting style flashed Mei Zheren, his eyes widened and his mouth wide open, not knowing what to say.
Seeing Mei Zheren's surprised look, Daddy Taguk was very pleased, and the simple and clean soul was the most appropriate portrayal of the Ice Plains people.
"Proper wisdom is not in conflict with the way of the icefields, my child, a divine being, depends on his heart after all."
After saying that, Daddy Taguk shrugged his shoulders: "The gods of nature will not punish their people for their yearning for abundance. ”
"But why do you lose the way of the ice after believing in the new sect of Aba?"
"Child, the way of the ice field is to put yourself in nature, but faith will make you light a lamp on your head, and all the sects think that they are a lamp, then, under the light of the lamp, everyone can see you."
Mei Zheren instantly realized that the natural way of the Ice Plains people was to tune the brainwaves of the human body to resonate with the fluctuations of the natural world, and then the human beings were hidden in the natural world.
Belief is bound to be a strong fluctuation of thinking, and the purer the belief, the more frequent the fluctuation of thinking.
This point has been verified by Mei Zheren, and believers are simply a bell that rings within the detection range of computer wave instruments.
At this point, the answer that the Iceplains were not taken away by the Silicon-based people is obvious, with the way of the Icefields, in the eyes of those robotic life detection instruments, the Iceborns are like ice and snow in the wasteland, and they are not their target.
Mei Zheren did not give up, he asked a very core question: "Daddy Taguk, I should have mastered the way of the ice field, what is the oracle you are talking about?" ”
"Child, as long as you persevere in practicing the path of the Ice Field, you will naturally get an oracle one day, and the last time I got an oracle was twenty years ago, and it was that oracle that saved us from the catastrophe."
And what's going on? Is there really a god? Mei Zheren is not very sure.
He could be sure that there were some mysterious beings, but it was the first time he had heard of them directly.
The question in Mei Zheren's heart was written on his face, and Daddy Tagk didn't think much about it, but talked about what he was interested in.
"Child, I haven't asked your name yet, names are sacred in the habits of the Ice Plains, and only when they are given a name can a person become a person."
"My brother said my name was Mei Zhen, and he told me when I was three years old."
In fact, Mei Zheren feels that he can't change his surname or sit on his name, whether it is Mei Zhen in Bingyuan or Mei Delen in Baa language, the pronunciation is the same as Mei Zheren.
Tagk's expression changed dramatically when he heard Mei Zheren's name, and he actually folded his hands and saluted Mei Zheren respectfully.
This is not enough, he beckoned the villagers to come over, and also saluted in turn, Mei Zheren wanted to refuse but was stopped by Aunt Warir with her eyes.
When everyone had finished saluting, Daddy Tagok explained to him, "Mei Zhen is the ancestor of the Icefield Wizards, and the heir appointed by the ancestor of wizards, Mei Bo. ”
"The name of every child of the Ice Plains has been confirmed by the sorcerer of the clan at birth, if you don't get the oracle, no sorcerer will dare to give you Mei Zhen's name, and the lie will be killed by the thunder."
"Child, you are indeed the hope that the God of Nature has given to the people of the Ice Plains."
Mei Zheren didn't care about this, he cared about the ancestor of the Ice Wizard, Mei Bo, this name is not unfamiliar.
He confirmed to Daddy Tagk again, "Is the ancestor of wizards Mabel?" Is this the pronunciation? ”
Daddy Tagk nodded earnestly: "Yes, the ancestor of wizards is Maeber. ”
Mei Zheren was a little distracted, he remembered the origin of the Mei family that his grandfather told him back then, and went up to Mei Bo of the Shang Dynasty, who was tortured by cannon burning in "Romance of the Gods".
At that time, my father also said that most of these genealogies were far-fetched, and they were always pulled to celebrities, so as to show that they had a more prominent background, mainly because later generations were gilding their own lintels.
Then my father was suppressed by my grandfather's look.
The tone of the way of the ice fields has confirmed that the people of the ice fields are the descendants of the merchants, not the remnants of the Wuding Expedition Ghost Fang, or the lone army that did not have time to return to the Dongyi before the fall of the Shang Dynasty.
Now they say that the ancestor of the wizards of the Iceplains is Maeber, then they don't run away at all.
Don't complain about Mei Zheren's thoughts, the true qi is there, and the way of the ice field has also been seen, is it a coincidence? Or is there something mysterious in it?
Could it be that those immortals really have the ability to know beforehand? Or maybe he was always in their sight, Mei Zheren was a little frightened, but he was soon relieved.
No, they couldn't have predicted that they would be on the ice field, it must have been a routine left in advance, like a weather forecast.
If there is a complete system that can fully interpret the changes in the atmosphere, then the estimation of the climate is also inseparable.
Since Adan awakened, even Mei Zheren has now touched this vein.
If those predecessors had a predictable way of coping with changes in the natural environment, then the preconditions needed to cope with changes were clear.
Mei Zheren just bumped into this coincidence himself.
He stopped his thoughts and solemnly said to Daddy Taguk: "My brother also told me that I must go to find the Hui people, they are in the habitat of the former people. ”
"Former people? Is it the guys who laugh at us for eating raw meat? ”
Daddy Tagk muttered in contemplation, and regained his composure: "Child, since the oracle has instructed me so, I can't stop it, presumably this is the guidance of the god of nature, you have arrived here and learned the way of the ice field, perhaps there are greater surprises and responsibilities waiting for you on the road ahead." ”
Mei Zheren continued to explore the concept of the former people: "Are those former people also of the same origin as us? Why did I see the Icemen fighting them when I was studying history in Bear Fall? ”
"This is a matter of old age, in fact, it is very simple, they arrived in Yangzhou first, at that time the ancestors did not unify the tribe, we are the tribe that represents the later unification, they may not recognize."
As he spoke, Tagk took out a mask in his arms and handed it to Mei Zheren.
"Child, the ornament on this can prove that they are of the same origin as us, I don't know if they still recognize it, take this away, this is also left by the sorcerer of the clan."
Mei Zheren took the mask and looked at it carefully, and found that it was exactly the same as the bronze gluttonous patterns of the Shang Dynasty.
This is another corroboration, he simply broke the casserole and asked: "Was this mask made of metal in the first place?" ”
Daddy Taguk nodded happily: "The rumors are so, but here, where is the copper mine?" ”
Mei Zheren's eyes lit up: "Is there a refining method for bronze in the clan?" ”
"It's been lost for a long time, but I only know that it should be made of bronze to make masks, as if the war with Blackbeard in the south was fought at that time because of the loss of the bronze mask."
That's right, Mei Zheren gently stroked the mask again, only to realize that it was made of whale skin, which made him frown.
Daddy Tagke seemed to know what he was worried about, so he said directly: "It is a fallacy to say that the Icefield people hunted whales, and we are just seeking relief for the whales that have run to the shore, so that they can calmly return to the embrace of nature." ”
Mei Zheren didn't ask Tagek, he called Bai Ya directly: "Are there any rumors in the clan that they are fighting against the Ice Plains?" ”
Bai Ya, who was so busy that she couldn't breathe, received Zuzu's inquiry, stopped, and finally could rest for a while.
"Iceborn? Every grandmother told the younger generations that if they felt that they were about to return to the bosom of nature, then wait on the shore of the ice field, and the ice people would pray for us, and they could hook up with the gods. ”
"What about the Icefield people who ate whale meat and made clothes out of whale skin?"
Bai Ya's thinking was a little gloomy: "That's a reward for the Ice Plains, they give us peace, we extend life for them, nature is always circulating." ”
"Okay, I see, pay attention to rest, don't get too tired, work and play together."
The leather girl came back to life with full blood on the spot: "Okay, thank you Zuzu, Zuzu is the best." ”
The white girl beckoned the children to jump and jump again, and the sea was alive again.
Mei Zheren came back to his senses and solemnly put the mask into his arms, he was now also wearing a "leather coat" made of biomimetics, but it looked like it was made of sheepskin.
Then he also saluted Tagkhesh: "Thank you, Daddy, and thank you Aunt Warir and Aunt Uncle. ”
Mei Zheren returned the salute and stood up, and the people in the village knew that he was about to set off again, and everyone gave them blessings, and stuffed a lot of dried meat, full of a big burden.
Bidding farewell to the Icefield Village, Mei Zheren embarked on another journey.
This time he was lucky, and after walking less than 500 kilometers, he encountered a robot.
Mei Zheren also used the camouflage of the Ice Plain Road to sneak up until he was only a few hundred meters away from them.
By this time he could already hear the noise, only that the robots were still chatting, which was strange.
One of the robots also choked at the other: "Hu Du, if you don't get anything out of this trip, see how you explain to the captain." ”
"The captain is a fart, just a guy who slaps the horse, if he is unhappy one day, he has to get out, unlike us, we can fight, just those bionic bodies, I can fight ten of them."
Hearing this conversation, Mei Zheren chuckled in his heart, these robots are no longer pure robots, they are just like the sapient robots he met on Cowkinier Island.
Should you take the risk? They weren't easy to deal with, but Mei realized that this was his best and only chance to sneak into the silicon-based camp.
At this time, he suddenly remembered what Aunt Waril had said about her Hudu, and he blurted out in his heart: "Brother, Mom asked me to come to you." ”
