4. Induction
Early the next morning, he took the rusty sword and the lunch prepared by his mother, and went out of the village and went up the hillside.
The sun had just jumped over the horizon, it was still early, and the white maniac had not yet arrived.
Marven subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, he was very disgusted with the restrictive training, in this regard, the Bligh instructor and the white madman were not much different from him, but he also knew that this was also the only way out of poverty.
It took a lot of effort for him to tie up the broken branches of little Rhodes, and he had seen the adults in the village do this before, and he didn't know if the whole main trunk could survive if it was broken.
After doing this, Marven was already sweating profusely, and when he straightened up, he found that the branches of the trees around him were full of all kinds of birds, squirrels, and foxes, hyenas, and rabbits had also emerged from the forest.
Marven wiped the sweat from his head and said with a smile: "Okay, when did you come? ”
Many people in the village know that Marven has a very special affinity for animals, no matter who it is, no matter how fierce the dog is, he will not bark his teeth, of course, in this kind of rural place, such a talented person will not attract too much attention at all, especially the Hariran Kingdom that advocates force.
Only Bin knows that Marven is not only special, when he is around, wolves will not attack rabbits, dogs will not chase cats, and even snakes will be on the same branch as eagles.
"I've heard that there is a zoo in a big city where there are a lot of animals for the little ones to see, and if you're there, you're going to be the best keeper. ”
Bine had said this more than once, but alas, it was just a small mountain village, and it was still a remote mountain village.
But Marven doesn't take this very seriously, what a zoo, it's just a legend, no one in the village has seen it at all, in his opinion, as long as he can stay in a place where the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there are so many lovely friends.
It's been a long time since I've been in training camp and I've been so relaxed with my friends.
Marven, as usual, broke half of the wheat cake and scattered it on the ground, allowing the animals to eat it.
But half a wheat cake was too little, and it was not long before the animals, large and small, raised their heads and stared at him.
Marven smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, I can't give it to you anymore, this piece is reserved for Bai ...... Grandpa White's. ”
The animals seemed to understand, and no longer waited around him, but jumped up and down actively, birds landed on his shoulders, and squirrels even crawled into his hair to make nests.
Marven was not angry, and while teasing the gray rabbit and fox in front of him, he said: "I was kicked out of the training camp, but do you know, it turns out that the white grandfather who always sits on the hillside is a great person, and he seems to be more powerful than Instructor Bligh." ”
"But...... He doesn't seem to have a good temper. Marven reached out and grabbed the squirrel on his head and held it in the palm of his hand, "When you see him, you have to hide away, look at little Rod's ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the birds on his shoulders suddenly fluttered and flew away as if they were frightened, and foxes, rabbits, squirrels, and so on also ran into the forest in an instant.
Marven was startled, and before he could understand what was happening, when he turned around, he found the white madman standing a few steps behind him.
"I ...... I just saw that you didn't come......" Marven was very worried that these little animals would be like yesterday's little Rhodes, and hurriedly explained, "You must not be angry...... I know it's wrong......"
The white madman didn't seem to be angry, and his expression was not as cold as yesterday, but he stared at him with a very strange gaze, and after a while, he said slowly: "When did you start doing this?"
Marven was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively, "You mean...... These animals?"
The white madman nodded.
"I can't remember exactly......" Marven moved his feet a little uneasily, "When I can remember, there are always a lot of animals around me......"
The white madman fell silent, tilted his head, and did not speak for a long time.
Marven felt more and more uncertain when he saw him like this, and when he was hesitating to apologize, the white madman spoke again.
"Ask you a question and answer me honestly. The white madman frowned rarely, and said, "Have you never hurt anyone, not even animals?"
Marven shrunk and nodded.
"Why?" asked the white madman.
"I ......" Marven glanced at the white madman timidly, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Why do you want to hurt each other, isn't it good to get along in harmony......"
The white madman said coldly: "Wolves and rabbits can also get along?"
Marven nodded unexpectedly, "It's hard at first, but it's getting better slowly......"
The white madman stared at him with complicated eyes, and said slowly: "In other words, it's not that you can't learn swordsmanship, the fundamental reason is that you reject hurting others and even animals from the bottom of your heart. ”
Marven was stunned and said hurriedly: "You...... I...... I swear, I'll work hard to practice from today!"
The white madman didn't speak, but just raised his head again, as if thinking about something, and said for a while, "You come and try this." ”
As he spoke, he took something out of his dirty coat pocket, bent down and carefully spilled it on the ground.
When Marven leaned over to look at it, he found that it seemed to be a handful of transparent beads, large and small, crystal clear and very beautiful, but it seemed to be made of ice condensation, and it was still cold, but in this kind of weather, the ice beads had already turned into water, right?
The white madman didn't explain, but only stretched out his dry fingers like chicken claws and pointed, "Can you feel that they are alive?"
Marven glanced at him suspiciously, and didn't dare to ask, so he had to twist a few beads with his hand and put them in the palm of his hand.
The beads were indeed made of ice, and his hands shook when he first came into contact with them, but now it was summer, and he felt much more comfortable after getting used to it.
In this season, it's amazing to have ice beads, but even so, how can there be life?
As soon as he thought of this, Marven suddenly felt that the ice beads emitted a very rhythmic vibration, as if they were beating in the palm of his hand!
Will it move?!
Marven was startled, and quickly calmed down, feeling the shock carefully.
That's right, the white madman is right, this ice bead is really alive, it's very obvious.
This so-called life is not as intuitive as the animal brings him, it is just a feeling, and Marven found that the ice beads are trying to communicate with him through vibration!
Oh my God, what the hell is this?
Marven felt that his spirit began to be in a trance, as if his thoughts had established some kind of connection with the ice beads, and then he felt that the world was spinning, and his eyes were blurred, as if countless shiny ice crystals were spinning around him. Jumping, and slowly approaching him, it didn't take long to cover every part of his body, as if suddenly encountering high temperature evaporation, and disappeared in an instant, Marven only felt a dazzling bright light wrapping his whole body, and the skin of his whole body was a little tingling cool, but soon, his body adapted to this temperature, and began to feel comfortable, this comfort was like lying in the river in the hottest summer, which was so comfortable that he almost moaned.
