5.19 Seven doorways, one cut in the snow
Regarding the information about the Hunter Ship and the Hunter King, the old hunter obviously knew more than Murong Wei.
Wu Chen deliberately returned to the temple and asked him for news of the Deep Winter.
After listening to Wu Chen's account, the old hunter smiled and said, "The Deep Winter is indeed the Hunter King Ship. But it's not a ship of the dead. At this time, the Deep Winter is the location of the Hunter Organization. The induction trial you have to complete is also to be picked up on the ship. ”
"I see." The clues are connected. Wu Chen asked, "Who is controlling the King Hunter Ship now?" ”
"Naturally, they are the elders of the hunter organization."
"How can I get on board?" Wu Chen asked again.
"Ringing arrows." The old hunter pulled out a bone arrow from his sleeve. "Although the Hunters are a loose organization, the lineage is as tight as that of any other sect. In the hands of each hunter is a 'hooked snake fanged arrow' that has been passed down from generation to generation. Just shoot this arrow and the Kinghunter will appear. ”
The hooked snake is a strange snake that hooks and eats people and animals in legend. It is more than 20 meters long and has a fork in the tail. When hunting, it lurks in the water and hooks its tail to shore animals to eat it. "The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Classic of Zhongshan" and "The Book of Water (Ruoshui)" are contained.
As he spoke, the old hunter solemnly handed the fanged arrow to Wu Chen: "Give it." ”
"Oh." Wu Chen hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it. The old hunter gave it simply, and Wu Chen took it easily. However, everyone knows that there is a deep trust and responsibility involved in this. From now on, Wu Chen will be the descendant of the old hunter lineage. When he is old, he also needs to find a suitable young man to pass on the sound of arrows in his hands.
The biggest challenge to do this is to survive the endless hunt.
Just like the old hunters.
The moment the hooked snake arrow leaves the palm of the hand. The old hunter felt a sense of relief. The whole person seems to be ten years younger. An old hunter who spends his days dealing with the beasts of the snowfield. It's not that I'm afraid of death. Instead, he was afraid that after his death, the hunters of this vein would be cut off. Now that it has been passed to Wu Chen, it can be regarded as a successor. That's the reason for the relief.
"Grandpa, when are you going to summon the Kinghunter Ship?" Wu Chen asked if there were any rules for time. After all, the ancients had to look at the yellow calendar when they went out.
"You decide." The old hunter laughed.
"Okay." It seems that there are no taboos.
Wu Chen noticed that there was a problem of overlapping identities here. According to Murong Wei, the Deep Winter was a gift from the ancient gods to the goddess of ice and snow, and later became a symbol of the most powerful hunter under his command. However, the old Orion only said that it was the ship of the Hunter King. After the death of the previous Hunter King, the elders took charge.
But what about the connection between the Hunter King and the Goddess?
Hunters still regard the goddess of ice and snow as a guardian deity. But how far is this trust from faith?
These are all unknowns.
From Wu Chen's experience, the hunter is indeed a loose organization. And it used to be brilliant. When the temple was undamaged and was still a city of gods, the temple was a warm home for hunters. The returning hunters were to make sacrifices to the goddess before the revelry. This was seen by Wu Chen when he entered the city, from the past. The reason why he saw those scenes was because the Divine City was the divine domain of the goddess. Precipitated with the chaotic memories of the goddess. And Wu Chen is not only a hunter of the goddess, but also a strong man of spiritual power. So, driven by some mysterious connection, I saw a fragment of the goddess's past memories.
The dilution of the hunter's faith should be destroyed from the city of God. The goddess began at the time of her long sleep. With the destruction of the Divine City, the hunters departed. In the long years that followed. Gradual differentiation.
When the divine power begins to fade, power begins to germinate.
So the theocracy shifted to the kingship. The Hunter King became the supreme ruler of the entire Hunter Organization.
As for whether the Hunter King still believes in the goddess or not. It depends on how much he is passionate about power and his own ambitions.
Wu Chen felt that the loose hunter organization must have something to do with the previous hunter kings. In other words, the reason why it is scattered is also the result of the laissez-faire of the hunter's high-level management. From this point of view, Wu Chen felt that the Hunter King did not believe in goddesses.
Otherwise, after so many years, why is the goddess still lying in the tomb of the temple?
Now the question arises, does he believe it?
This is also Murong Wei's question.
Wu Chen thought for a while and said, "This has nothing to do with faith. Doing things for the Goddess and believing in her are two different concepts. The reason why I am willing to help her rebuild the temple is more because I want to get something in return than because I believe in her. ”
"What if faith could reap more for her?" Murong Qi asked again.
Wu Chen smiled: "What you are talking about is the most universal view of faith. Most people believe in a god or organization for the purpose of obtaining rewards beyond the world. Such as immortality, such as the ascension of the day, and so on. In fact, true faith is not so purposeful. It seems to me that the only function of faith is the return of the soul. "Life is also a circuit." ”
"I see." Murong Wei nodded happily.
Things should be done slowly, not in a hurry. Knowing that Luo Lie was okay for the time being, Wu Chen had to deal with the affairs on his side as much as possible and make all preparations for entering the prison. The most important thing is to improve your strength as much as possible. Two ideas, to improve their own strength, and to enhance the strength of the god.
For a hunter with a slitting back and a dead vein, the Demon Slashing Knife is his greatest reliance. The energy storage of the demon beast Neidan in the Dan ball is online, and the inner Dan of the most powerful demon beast fire scale python is online. Now, if you want to improve the ability of the Demon Slashing Knife as much as possible, the best way is to find a demon beast Inner Pill that is much higher than the Fire Scale Python and embed it in it. Through the method of mutual growth of the five elements, the energy storage line of the entire Dan furnace can be improved.
However, Wu Chen thought of a better way from the height of the shelter.
If the Danqiu is a small Dan furnace, then in the Demon Hunter's Cave, isn't there a powerful Demon Refining Furnace?
If you export the terror of the demon refining furnace and connect it to the Dan Ball......
The method is not difficult.
The Demon Slayer Knife only needs to go through the refining of the Demon Refining Furnace, and it should be connected to the entire circuit. Just like Shikigami.
Questions followed.
There is a ghost car locked in the demon furnace. And because of the relationship between wearing the goddess's toenails, it cannot be refined. If the ghost car is not refined, how can you refine the demon slashing knife again? Seeing that Wu Chen hesitated, Murong Wei secretly persuaded: "Master, the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. The Demon Slayer is your last resort, so don't refine it. ”
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.
Wu Chen nodded slowly: "Okay." ”
Put the demon slashing knife aside first, and Wu Chen wants to crack the refining of the ghost car first. The bighorn deer said that if you want to refine the ghost car, you must first take off the mask.
"Master, why don't you try to contact the ghost car?" Beigong Yun, who had already woken up from his deep sleep, took time out of his busy schedule and said.
"Okay." Wu Chen let out a comfortable sigh.
Walking out of the bath with Beigong Yun in his arms, Wu Chen put the exhausted beauty back on the stone bed and walked straight to the Danfang.
Ten ghost cars. Divine beast separation. Use the ten masked men full of divinity to control the ten heads of the beast.
Wu Chen has a close relationship with one of the masked people. It is the head of the bird that has been stripped from the body. However, the severed head was stolen from the divine power and the demonic power skyrocketed to give birth to the Harpy. According to Wu Chen's understanding, the bird demon is the co-master of the will and body born of the ten bird heads.
The harpy demon formed by the convergence of ten bird heads is now lying dying in the demon refining furnace. Ten masked men are surrounding her, trying their best to stop the bleeding.
One of them was carrying a basket of powder from the slag that could be found everywhere in the hearth, and the masked man was suddenly shaking as he poured it into a terrifying wound on the harpy's chest.
"Master?"
That's right, the person who contacted her was Wu Chen: "Are you okay?" ”
Looking down at the bloody and terrifying wounds like a crater under his feet, the masked man paused, "I...... Very good. "This wound is the left side of the Nufeng that was smashed by Beigong Shu.
"How can I remove the mask?" There is nothing polite to Wu Chen, who is his own person, and he says it directly.
"No one can let us take off our masks unless we volunteer." The masked man replied softly.
"Would you like to?" Wu Chen asked.
"I don't want to." The masked man replied, "We've already thrown pots before. No one was willing to take it off. ”
"So that's ......" Wu Chen didn't intend to give up: "Look, is there any other way?" ”
"The only way is to revive the banshee. She is the master of the will of all of us. As long as she wills, we will all do. The masked man said.
This is clearly a last resort.
"So, how do you revive the banshee?" Wu Chen couldn't have any expectations for the banshee who had been declared brain dead.
"Stop the bleeding first." This is also what the masked man is doing, "The spiritual energy in the demon refining furnace is full, as long as the bleeding can be stopped, the banshee will recover on its own." ”
"And how do you stop the bleeding?"
"Master, go find an ancient demon beast." The masked man has apparently figured out a solution.
The hemostatic demon beast that the masked man asked Wu Chen to find is called: Mountain Spider.
Mountain spiders, ancient giant spiders, are as big as wheels, and their silk can stop bleeding. The New Book of the South. Mountain spiders are extremely large, often haunting the mountains, and have a very ferocious personality, often tying people they see with spider silk and bringing them back to the cave to eat.
Legend has it that during the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, there was a general named Feiman who walked alone through the mountains. There was a mountain spider hanging from its tail like a piece of cloth, and wanted to entangle it and take it back to the cave to eat. Just as the spider silk was about to touch General Fei, he bent his bow and shot the spider back. The spider stepped back, and he cut off the silk a few feet long and stowed it away. If a subordinate soldier is wounded in battle, cut the size of the inch and paste it, and the bleeding will stop immediately.
So, it wasn't Bundy who invented the Band-Aid, it was Fieman. This is probably the earliest recorded Band-Aid in history.
So, as long as enough spider silk band-aids are collected, the banshee's wound should be able to stop bleeding quickly.
There are many wood spirits in the mountains.
This mountain spider who has come all the way from ancient times must be very remarkable to this day.
No, all this will not be difficult for Wu Chen.
Because he has a Shiki-divine weapon. (To be continued.) )
