267. Gifts
It was a spirit bone with a life demon pattern, and there was a trace of wolf flesh hanging on it, and an extremely obvious knife mark was almost dark red. The magic pattern was brushed past, but there was still a rich earth-based magic aura on the spirit bones, and countless earth-based magic powers converged in the magic patterns to form large and small magic vortices, like gurgling streams flowing endlessly on the runes of the spirit bones.
Surdak couldn't read the magic runes on the leg bones, but he had seen many black veined demon skins on the body of evil spirits, these two things were actually not the same kind in the field of magic, and the black veined demon skin was a mark born on the body after the demon advanced, just like the barbarian strength increase will also appear on the face of dark lines, it is the embodiment of strength and identity after advancement.
However, the Demon Pattern Spirit Bone is a rarer magic material, and it has a wide range of applications in the field of magic.
The biggest difference between this kind of life magic pattern and those magic rune boards in the magic market is that it is a product created by nature, if it is placed in a suitable environment, its service life is almost the end of the life of the sand wolf king, and almost every spirit bone has the natural advantage of low magic consumption, which makes the price of the life magic pattern spirit bone in the Grimm Empire magic market nearly ten times higher than that of the magic rune board.
Of course, not every demonic beast can give birth to an explicit life demonic spirit bone, and the chance of being able to give birth to a demonic spirit bone among the primary demonic beasts is even lower, like the demon antelope, Tim fish, sand wolf, these primary demonic beasts, the chance of being able to give birth to a magic spirit bone is even less than one in a thousand.
And many times it is ignored by hunters. For example, the leg bone of this sand wolf king, if Rita was not going to take off the leg meat because the wolf king's hind legs were too heavy, and it happened to scrape the leg bone when the meat was removed, even if Rita's meat removal knife went a little deeper, this life demon pattern spirit bone would be completely scrapped.
Surdak didn't know the spirit bone with the life pattern, he only knew that it was no different from the black pattern of the demon's body, and he could also feel a lot of magic on this bone, and he could also see some strange blood-colored runes.
Surdak also chose to clean the wolf meat on the leg bones, and then found a piece of oil paper to wrap the leg bones, preparing to take them to the magic market in Highlansa another day.
It was also the first time for the villagers of Wall Village to see such a leg bone engraved with strange runes, but they didn't understand the value of the magic pattern spirit bone, they only thought that this thing was so strange, there was actually a rune on the leg bone of this wolf, but then everyone was distracted by something even more strange, that is, the two longest wolf teeth in the mouth of these sand wolves.
Each sand wolf has four sharp canine teeth in its mouth, and the two canine teeth on the adult sand wolf are about three inches long after they grow up, if they are taken off, a hardwood handle is installed at the root of the tooth, just enough to make a bone dagger without forehead protection, this wolf tooth short dagger can not be put on the fire to burn, can not be used as a small dinner knife to cut meat, but it is a very practical dagger, the biggest feature is that it has a strong piercing force, and can easily cut three layers of raw cowhide.
Surdak harvested seventeen wolf heads of sand wolves, and the villagers knew that these wolf heads belonged to Surdak, and these villagers were also poor for so many years, and everything was measured in money, and they knew the value of this wolf head, so they had no idea about the wolf teeth.
Rita and Natasha put the disassembled wolf meat into a bag and hung it on the hooks on both sides of the saddle of the Kubolai horse, and the two women led the horses one after the other to send the fresh meat of the sand wolf king home, Surdak stayed behind and treated the sand wolf skulls with quicklime, these sand wolf skulls were the best material for the sacrifice, and he didn't want to take out a random sand wolf head during the next sacrifice ceremony, as if he was carrying a stinky tofu with the lid knocked over in a jar.
Surdak couldn't help but complain in his heart, if he really sacrificed a wolf head like that, it would be a curse to come down......
An older child squatted next to the meat table with his hands and knees, looking at Surdak with his eyes narrowed into a line, a few brown freckles on his face, a fleshy nose, and a big grin when he laughed, Surdak had some impression of him at the entrance of the village, and everyone called him Benny.
He is sixteen years old this year, and it is said that he will attend a coming-of-age ceremony in the fall, and his parents do not intend to marry him, but are ready to send him to the army for military service, and if he can return alive in four years, it is natural that a girl with a dowry will marry willingly. Surdak felt that the system of national recruitment in the Grimm Empire was the biggest problem restricting the number of people.
"Benny, how's the bar mig's ready?"
Surdak asked the big boy with leather gloves, wrapped the wolf's head in some quicklime powder, and then wrapped it firmly in linen.
When Benny saw that Surdak wanted to tie up the linen wrap and couldn't spare his hand, he stood up to help.
"Hehe, of course, old Benny is going to give me a brand new pair of sheepskin boots." He said.
"Sounds good! So, since you're about to become an adult, I have nothing to give you......" As he spoke, Surdak wrapped the linen in his magic waist bag, picked up another wolf head from the table, and used the dagger in his hand to pry open the wolf's mouth, knocking off one of the wolf's fangs on the sand wolf.
Then he shaved off the flesh and blood on it with a few knives, wiped it with a rag, wrapped it in this rag, and threw it to Benny, who was a little stunned.
"I'll give this to you, be careful, don't be cut by it, I heard that it's poisonous, it shouldn't be difficult to press a handle on it, right?" Surdak smiled and said to Benny.
"This is for me?" The big boy hadn't recovered from the surprise at this time, and still asked stupidly.
Then he immediately realized that he didn't have to question at all, so he immediately replied: "Of course...... It's not hard! Wow, that's so cool, I actually have a wolf tooth dagger......"
“……”
Surdak didn't expect a wolf tooth to make Benny so happy, he just took out a little bit of something, and felt that he should give a little gift to the older children attending the coming-of-age ceremony......
Later, Surdak found that Benny was holding the wolf tooth in his hand and rushed into the crowd of his friends like crazy, shouting and screaming excitedly, for fear that the whole village would not know. So the canines of the four wolf heads were shaved clean, and Surdak didn't know that there would be so many big children participating in the coming-of-age ceremony this year in the village of Wall, which has less than 100 households.
This gift is really a bit valuable to the villagers of Wall Village, and even the adults in the village covet the good luck of these big children.
