Chapter 172: Wizards, Wizards? (a)

Pang Shiyuan had some conjectures, maybe the so-called power of the bloodline was the ability to hide genes in human DNA.

Of course, it is also possible that it has nothing to do with DNA and genes, but it is the totem worship that communicates a more mysterious power, which makes the human body have incredible abilities.

However, no matter what the reason is, with his current understanding of totems and witchcraft, it is impossible to know the real reason.

What he has to do now is to practice without knowing why. Cultivate until one day when he is qualified and has the ability to know what it is, and then explore.

This is just like his martial arts practice, at the beginning, he practiced how the master taught. By now, he and Gu Jingtian were already qualified to explore knowingly!

There is another point of totem worship that Pang Shiyuan feels very mysterious, and that is the incantation.

The spell that Qianqiu taught Pang Shiyuan, he couldn't understand a word.

But it doesn't matter if you don't understand it, just read it. Anyway, I don't even know much about teaching, and I'm learning from the elders of the tribe!

According to Qianqiu's words, this spell and incantation are much more difficult to learn than a foreign language, and he is still in his infancy.

Fortunately, Qianqiu's spell to teach Pang Shiyuan is not long or complicated, Pang Shiyuan recited it a few times, and then corrected his pronunciation, and it will be done.

After painting the totem and learning the totem worship, Pang Shiyuan began to worship the totem under the guidance of Qianqiu.

Pang Shiyuan sat cross-legged on the sofa, his heart facing the sky, his eyes half-open and half-closed, looking like he was not worshipping sincerely, but like meditating.

In fact, this is Pang Shiyuan's totem worship posture.

Regarding the worship posture, Chiaki said that it is not important.

The reason why there are rituals and postures in the totem worship in the tribe is only to allow the worshippers to be more focused and sincere, and if the worshippers themselves can be focused and sincere, the rituals and gestures are not important.

Pang Shiyuan was more accustomed to meditating and cultivating internal strength, and this posture could make him more relaxed and focused, so he chose meditation as a posture of totem worship.

He had just sat down in the five-hearted posture facing the sky, and before he could begin the totem worship, the durian ran to his crossed calves and sat down.

Of course, its sitting posture cannot be as heart-to-heart as Pang Shiyuan, but it is just the most normal sitting posture of a dog with its forelimbs standing, hind limbs bent, and buttocks sitting back.

Pang Shiyuan didn't care what the durian wanted to do, and while visualizing the form of the tengu (that is, the durian) in his mind, he spat out the mantra from his mouth in the way that Chiaki had taught.

At first, Pang Shiyuan couldn't keep the visualization in his mind and the spell in his mouth in sync.

But as he became more proficient in mantras, they became a habit and no longer interfered with his visualizations.

Pang Shiyuan, the image of the durian, naturally knew, and he thought that he could come up with what it looked like with a little thought.

However, thinking and contemplating, don't look at it, it's just a word, but the difficulty is very different. In addition, the thinking of visualization is very different from the ordinary thinking of people.

When people think about someone or something, most of them think of a vague image and concept. If you really have to imagine someone or something in your mind, they will find that they can't do it at all.

They will find that they are so unfamiliar with the familiar people and things around them.

As a simple example, let's talk about people!

It's easy to think of familiar human torsos, limbs, heads, familiar features, and clothing. But if you go further, if you want to know the specific features of the facial features and the specific style of clothing, some people can describe it, but most people will feel vague.

In fact, many people may never really remember the person they are familiar with, and the reason why they know each other is just an intuitive impression, thinking that he is him, and there is no reason at all. This impression is not a rational cognition, not judged from appearance, figure, clothing, words and deeds, etc., but the most intuitive feeling.

Experienced sketchers are able to paint a concrete image of a person based on people's somewhat vague descriptions. But more people will become more vague after listening to people's vague descriptions.

Pang Shiyuan is like this now, he finds that the more he thinks about the image of the durian, the more vague the specific image of the durian becomes!

He thought he was familiar enough with the durian, but when he actually visualized the image of the durian, he realized that he knew far less about the durian than he thought.

What he really knew was the more obvious features of the durian, such as the white dog's head and the black cat's body, as well as the black round eyes and triangular white ears.

Going deeper into the mouth, nose, neck, limbs, and tail, he found that their images were a little blurry, and he was no longer so sure.

And this is still the body part of the durian that is visible to the outside, and those more hidden places such as the throat and lower abdomen, he doesn't know it.

If it goes deeper into the dog's hair and skin, Pang Shiyuan can only surrender completely.

However, Pang Shiyuan did not give up, Qianqiu said that visualization is a process from a simple answer to a concrete one, and it cannot be achieved overnight.

A vague impression is also a stage of visualization.

As he progressed deeper in his vision, the vague impression naturally became clear.

After the image of the dog is completely clear, the totem worship is completed and begins to enter the stage of contemplation.

At the stage of contemplating from imagination, the contemplating tengu begins to merge with the body and mind. At this time, it can be regarded as a critical stage of totem worship, and it is also a time that requires sincerity.

Of course, it's too early to say that.

Pang Shiyuan's half-open and half-closed eyes began to droop, and the image of the grenade sitting on his calf entered his mind through his eyes.

What the eyes saw and what he thought in his heart began to coincide, and the image of the tengu in Pang Shiyuan's heart began to be concrete and plump.

However, at this time, Pang Shiyuan could no longer tell whether this tengu was the durian he saw or the durian he visualized.

He thought that this totem worship might have failed.

Just as he was about to stop meditating and listen to what Chiaki had to say, he heard the cry of a grenade.

The cry of the grenade was very low, like flowing water and wind, a little ethereal, but it really reached his ears.

Pang Shiyuan listened to it, and it didn't feel like the sound of "durian".

He had never heard a durian call like that, but for some reason, he just thought it was supposed to be that. Even he felt that he should have spoken out in this way.

Then, before he knew it, the spell in his mouth began to change, moving closer to the somewhat ethereal voice of the grenade.

And as soon as he got closer, he felt that the image of the durian in his mind was getting fuller and more real.
