Liang Hu didn't notice any changes in his chest, he lowered his head and looked carefully at the light that Ling Bingxue had found, and found that it was a pair of very abstract beast horn patterns, so he suddenly realized and said to Ling Bingxue: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a totem tattoo." ”

"Totem tattoo?" Ling Bingxue repeated what Liang Hu said, she knew what the tattoo was, but she didn't know the meaning of the totem.

"Let's start with the totem. Liang Hu guessed Ling Bingxue's thoughts, and explained to her: "From Pangu opening the world to the Yellow Emperor leading the human race to defeat the demon clan coalition led by Chi You in the field of Zhuolu, this laid the foundation for the survival, development and reproduction of our human race, so later generations called this period of time the era of flood famine." At that time, our human race was weak, so it was natural to surrender to the powerful demon clan, use various tributes to please the demon clan's power, and borrow its prestige to protect the tribe's people. ”

When Liang Hu said this, he changed another concept that was easier to understand and continued: "It's like if you pay me the protection fee, I will give you a certificate, others will see this certificate and know that you are covered by me, and if you want to trouble you, you must weigh your own strength." In the era of the flood and famine, force was advocated, so the power of the demon clan injected a wisp of his soul power into a token to stay in the human tribe, and this token carrying the great power of the demon clan was a totem. Over the years, the shape of these totems has penetrated into the soul of every member of the tribe and has become a spiritual belief and symbol, hence the names such as the Bear Tribe, the Giant Serpent Tribe, and the human race is proud to be the children of these powerful creatures.

Later, the Yellow Emperor slowly unified the human race, and every time he fused a human tribe, he would choose a certain part of the other party's totem to add his own totem, using this method to show the other party's survival, indicating that the two sides are cooperating rather than annexing, and later generations we often say Yan Huang, in fact, the Yellow Emperor defeated the Yan Emperor and incorporated the latter's people into his rule. By the time the human race finally formed a super tribe and was qualified to fight the demon race head-on, the totem used by the Yellow Emperor had already become an appearance that did not exist in reality, with a snake body, lizard legs, eagle claws, antlers, and fish scales...... The new image derived from this collection of many totems is what we later call the dragon. ”

"Okay, back to this tattoo on my body. Liang Hu first explained the meaning of a totem, and then got to the point: " In the ancient times when the human race was flourishing, some monks found that hunting and killing powerful demon beasts and absorbing their souls or blood could make them have some of the power of demon beasts, but under the verification of countless years, forcibly fusing the soul of demon beasts often outweighed the losses, and in the end only the secret technique of using the blood of demon beasts to hammer and forge the body, I just smeared the whole body with the blood of the roe deer owl, and ran the quenching jade trick to absorb the blood of the roe deer owl containing the golden aura in the body, it is this method that is used, the power in the blood of the roe deer owl has been used by me, and naturally there is such a totem tattoo formed by soul power。 ”

"Ah!" Ling Bingxue asked with some worry after hearing this, "Then brother, will you become as ugly as a roe deer owl in the future?"

"Of course not. Liang Hu shook his head with a smile and said: "I just absorbed some of the blood containing aura from the roe deer owl, so as to strengthen the strong Cheng dù of the body, so that the quenching jade recipe is more suitable for me, and it is not the soul of the roe deer owl that is reborn, how can there be such a strange change? This principle is the same as when we eat pork and beef, is it because I eat more meat and become a pig and a cow?" It's this totem tattoo, but a little bit of demon beast soul power that can't be absorbed by me is condensed on the skin of the chest, just like its name, the only function is a symbolic tattoo. ”

Ling Bingxue patted her chest lightly and said, "Then I'll rest assured." But even if his brother turns into a roe deer owl and looks so scary, Xiaoxue will not leave his brother. ”

"Don't worry, this method has been verified by many great powers who are good at forging bodies in ancient times, and there will be no problems. Liang Hu soothed and said, "Xiaoxue, take out the dagger, this roe deer owl corpse can't be wasted." I didn't think that this dragon slaying technique would have a chance to be used, but I didn't expect that there would be an ancient demon beast for me to practice so soon, although it was only a cub that had not yet grown up. The beast soul of the demon beast, the inner dan, and the skin, flesh, bones and tendons are all rare materials, my strength is not enough to collect the beast soul, but it is a little regrettable, if this kind of thing can be obtained completely, it is the best material for making zuò spirit beasts. ”

"Spirit beast, what is that?" Ling Bingxue had heard Liang Hu mention this title for the first time, and she asked as she took out a triangular dagger from her silk belt.

"It's a means for monks to resist beasts. Liang Hu took the dagger and squatted next to the carcass of the roe deer owl cub and said, "Although I don't have a heritage in this area, I still know the simple principle. The monk seals the complete demon beast soul in a magic weapon, and summons it for his own use when needed, this summoned beast is condensed and formed with aura, and it can be seen and touched and is no different from when it was alive, hence the name spirit beast. ”

"Spirit beasts feed on aura, and even if they are killed after being summoned, they will not really die, but will return to the magic weapon to live, as long as they use enough aura to slowly repair the broken beast soul, they can be summoned intact again. Therefore, many monks who are good at beast control will often carefully tame a natal beast, supplemented by a variety of different spirit beasts to fight against the enemy......"

Liang Hu explained the things about the spirit beast and the beast monk in his mouth, and skillfully skinned the carcass of the roe deer owl with a broken body to extract the flesh. It didn't take long for the complete roe deer owl carcass to be gone, leaving only the skin, roe deer owl meat, roe deer owl bones, roe deer owl tendons, and a pale yellow oval meat ball the size of longan.

Liang Hu looked at the piles of demon beast materials that had been dismembered by himself with great ambition, the craftsmanship of his previous life was not reincarnated and wasted, which made Liang Hu very satisfied. The roe deer owl skin in front of him is already in tatters, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be of great use, otherwise, making a robe type of talisman can definitely greatly enhance the safety factor of Ling Bingxue. The roe deer owl meat is also somewhat broken, but whether it is used for alchemy or dispensing, it must be mashed first, as long as it contains enough aura, the product is the opposite and insignificant.

As for the pile of roe deer owl bones placed on the right hand, as well as the four tough roe deer owl tendons, Liang Hu's heart was hot for a while, this is the limb of the ancient demon beast, although it is only a cub, but in terms of grade, it has reached the sixth grade, and the first magic weapon made by Liang Hu in the early stage of Lingling Silence in the previous life was only the use of materials of this grade.

As for the pale yellow oval meat ball in Liang Hu's hand, it was a complete surprise, Liang Hu carefully twisted it and said to Ling Bingxue: "Look, this is the roe owl's inner dan, can you feel the pure aura contained in it? This is a five-grade inferior heavenly treasure! Not to mention its grade, even the birds, beasts, fish, and insects that can grow the inner pill are becoming fewer and fewer in modern society, and on land, it must at least have a lifespan of more than five hundred years." However, at a depth of 6,000 meters in the sea, many unusually large fish and insects are more likely to ......."

Liang Hu stopped abruptly when he said this, he had accidentally leaked a little bit of genius in his emotion, so naturally he would not say any more. After a pause for a few seconds, Liang Hu spoke again: "This is the place where roe owls live, and the golden aura is the most vigorous, and it is estimated that there should be a lot of Yin Yuan mushrooms, let's find out." ”

"Okay!" Ling Bingxue agreed, she walked to Liang Hu's side and snuggled in the latter's arms, Liang Hu naturally reached out to Ling Bingxue's waist and walked around the cave side by side with her. The two of them spent a lot of time searching carefully, and sure enough, they found a lot of Yin Yuan mushrooms, and their age had reached an astonishing five ages, that is, a full sixty years.

It's a pity that the number of these Yin Yuan mushrooms is quite rare, and many of them have traces of gnawing, presumably becoming food for roe deer owl cubs. Liang Hu picked some of the income into the belt in complete condition, and with these Yijiazi boutiques, the previous three-year-old Yin Yuan mushrooms were no longer in his eyes, and he simply gave them to Yi Xinzhu according to the original plan, so as to reach an agreement to hide from the world.

There was no other exit in the cave, and there was no trace of other creatures, Liang Hu tried to climb the waterfall, but the stream water all flowed out of the cracks in the mountain rocks, and it was impossible to trace the stream, and Liang Hu did not perceive any spiritual energy from these streams, so there was no need to spend too much time and energy for an ethereal answer, so he gave up the idea of finding the source.

Although there was no gain, Liang Hu still didn't care, the golden aura here was so abundant, it was simply a difficult opportunity to find, how could it be so expensive? Liang Hu stood beside a huge rock and pushed hard, but found that the huge rock was much heavier than he imagined, even if he blessed the wrestler charm and used the skill of a thousand shots, he could only slowly let the giant rock move forward inch by inch. It took Liang Hu more than ten minutes, tired and sweaty, to finally seal the boulder at the entrance of the cave, so that even if a strong enemy appears, if he wants to come in and sneak attack, he must first break the boulder, and the time he has won is enough for Liang Hu to react.

After ensuring the safety in the cave, Liang Hu sat cross-legged in the icy stream with peace of mind, and began to use the strength of the quenching jade recipe in his body with all his might, absorbing the spiritual energy from the outside world and filling the body, guiding these golden spiritual qi to swim along his meridians and the strength of the quenching jade technique. I don't know if it's because the gold aura here is abnormally abundant, or because Liang Hu has just smeared and absorbed the blood of the roe deer owl, and his body has changed significantly, maybe it's both, Liang Hu only feels that he is unusually smooth when he runs **, and when the aura is swallowed, it makes him feel fluttering, no less than the ecstasy between him and his girlfriend Yao Xueqing.
