175: The Winter Maiden and the Snow Wolf
In the small sheep soup shop, a lone lamp, an old man began to cook ginger soup on the stove, and a young man sat there, covered in frost and cold.
In Lou Jinchen's heart, there is still a wisp of thought contemplating the sun.
Maintain your body from freezing.
Lou Jinchen wanted to visualize another version of the sun several times, the scorching sun.
But in the end, I endured.
Because he was afraid that he would attract the attention of the winter god, and it would be a trouble to be noticed by a 'god' who had been sacrificed for an unknown number of millennia.
At that time, when he killed the priest in front of the five-colored valley, it was only after the wisp of winter god's consciousness receded that he visualized the scorching sun quickly breaking through the ice and snow to kill people.
It's just that the wisp of the consciousness of the god of winter invited by the priest came and went quickly, and when he felt that Lou Jinchen was dead, he would retreat.
But this time, the spell, the feeling of the cold invasion was not so fast, and Lou Jinchen did not feel the consciousness of the God of Winter coming, but he felt that it was even more tricky.
Because in this case, the spell is always operated by the High Priest, and it is a continuous spell dominated by the will of the High Priest.
He had a feeling that if the 'God of Winter' had a kingdom of God, then the high priest might have borrowed the extreme cold in his kingdom of God, and this piece of extreme cold could always exist, just like a person in a frozen refrigerator, unless he had the ability to break the frost, he would always be there, even if he could relieve the frost for a while, but he would eventually get tired one day.
When you are tired, you will be frosted again.
What Lou Jinchen is thinking about now is not how he was put into that refrigerator.
Because it's not difficult, he knows a lot of yin damage spells, make a fake puppet of a person's birth date and underwear, and dedicate it to some ghosts or secret spirits, so when that fake puppet is entangled, it will also be found by ghosts or secret spirits.
Even some ordinary people can do it, but if ordinary people do such a thing, when they sacrifice to ghosts or secret spirits, they often can't escape.
Of course, Lou Jinchen also has the ability to burn down such a fake puppet.
It's just that there is a more high-end way, which is that the caster traces it in his heart.
If it is just a mental trace, he can make the opponent's heart burn, or he can make the sword stab the opponent's heart, but if the opponent puts the 'heart' in the divine kingdom of the 'gods', then he can't burn it, and he can't pierce it.
Therefore, he would feel that the cold seemed to come from the feeling of boundless and infinite deep space and the sea of ice, as if there were no boundaries.
If this is the case, he will have to be watched by the god of winter by the continuous gaze of the god of the sun.
"Ginger soup can only warm the stomach, but it can't warm the heart." The hunchbacked old man said.
Lou Jinchen felt that he meant something, was silent for a while, and asked: "If a person's heart is cold, it will be difficult to warm it back." ”
"It's hard to get back, but it's okay anyway." The hunchbacked old man said.
"I've heard that in the wind and snow in the north, if you don't have a direction in your heart, it's easiest to get lost." Lou Jinchen said.
"Light a line of incense, and there will be a wolf's voice calling in the wind." The hunchbacked old man said.
"Oh, I wonder where this wolf sound comes from?" Lou Jinchen asked.
The hunchbacked old man didn't speak, but he turned his head to look at a place, Lou Jinchen looked over, there was a shrine there, and in the shrine there was an entrenched wolf, the wolf's feet were in front of him, and his head was raised high.
It's just that its body color is black, and I don't know if it's blackened by smoke and fire, or if it's originally carved from black stone.
"I've heard that the wolves in the northern wind and snow have long stopped hunting for food, but are guarding the yard." Lou Jinchen said.
The old man was silent, and after a while he said, "We will never give in, even if we don't have enough to eat, even if it's cold, but this is free, we don't need others to give us food." ”
Lou Jinchen looked at the old man seriously again.
"I came from the south, and I don't know the situation in the north, so please forgive me if I am offended." Lou Jinchen said.
"If you want others not to offend, you can only improve yourself, I heard that I recently beat a swordsman from the south and killed several priests of the Winter Maiden in a row." The hunchbacked old man said, "But now I am afraid that you will be frozen in this snowstorm." ”
"Don't worry about this, this frost can't help me in a short time!" Lou Jinchen said affirmatively.
The hunchbacked old man said: "The only one who can make you like this is the High Priest, and the High Priest can put your form into the Winter Maiden's divine domain, so only by severing the connection between this world and the Winter Maiden can you completely solve this spell." ”
"The Cult of the Winter God has been operating in the north for thousands of years, so how can the connection be easily severed?" Lou Jinchen asked.
"As long as the most critical one is broken, that connection is the foundation of why the high priest can become the high priest, and after breaking its foundation, she is just an ordinary priest, and it is expected that with the sword skills of the Taoist, it is not difficult to kill her."
"Oh, it turns out that this high priest's cultivation still has such roots, I wonder if the old man can explain it in detail?" Lou Jinchen asked.
The hunchbacked old man brought the boiled ginger soup to Lou Jinchen, and went to help Lou Jinchen make wine, and then said: "Once on this snowfield, there were two powerful 'spirits', one was the Winter Girl and the other was the Snow Wolf, they were all right, and many of the Winter Girl's letters were women waiting for her husband's return at home. ”
"Whenever their husbands go out, they pray at home, three times a day, every day, and over time, the winter girl's response becomes more and more clear, and because the men go out to hunt, or are out farming, they often encounter danger, and the outside environment is harsh, the men will inevitably suffer a lot of damage, so the followers of the snow wolf have not been able to improve."
"In order for her husband to come back safely, the women often gathered to pray, from the beginning it was just a family-like gathering to pray, and then began to build a small temple, and as the temple was built, the incense of the Winter Maiden became more and more stable, and his response became stronger and stronger."
"After a long time, the followers of the Winter Maiden became more and more powerful, and they began to formulate canons, formulate religious rules, and copy the picture album of the Winter Maiden's life, shaping the Winter Maiden from a wilderness spirit to an elegant lady."
"The spirit snow wolf, which was once as powerful as him, is painted as a pet beast at his table, the high priest said that as long as there is a piece of meat on the winter girl's table, there will definitely be a bone of the wolf god, such an insult is unacceptable to every believer of the snow wolf."
Lou Jinchen listened to the hunchbacked old man's story, and gradually became clear in his heart.
"Do you know what the High Priestess made of the altar that promoted her to her current realm?" The hunchbacked old man asked suddenly.
Of course Lou Jinchen didn't know.
"It is made of the bones of the snow wolf believers, I often hear the wailing of the wolf god in my dreams, I see that the hair of the Winter Maiden has been wrapped around the body of the wolf god, to drag the wolf god under his skirt, he is devouring the wolf god, we must hurry up, I must help the wolf god get rid of the shackles of the winter girl."
Lou Jinchen looked at the old man who was a little painful, but extremely determined, and even a little crazy, and didn't know what to say in his heart.
He never commented on these believers, but sometimes, when you're in a fog ahead of you, and you don't know why you're living, and someone tells you you should do it, and you should go in that direction, you bury your head and you may eventually achieve something you didn't expect.
Of course, there are many more who will get lost, because it is possible that the target of the guidance is hypocritical and a deception.
The old man believed in the wolf god, perhaps the wolf god gave him protection, gave him strength, and gave him the ability to live in this world, and now the old man is willing to work hard for the 'wolf god' to get rid of the shackles of the winter girl, and it is understandable.
The old man poured a jar of wine into Lou Jinchen before filling the pot, brought it to Lou Jinchen's side, and said, "My son, who was sacrificed to the high priest by my daughter-in-law, my grandson can take you to find where her altar is." ”
Lou Jinchen's heart was touched, and he understood that this was not only because of faith, but also hatred.
"The Snowfield Wolf God, another name is Vengeful Fang." After the hunchbacked old man finished speaking, a wolf's head came out from under the curtain from within.
Its humane eyes looked at Lou Jinchen, Lou Jinchen looked at its wolf head, and found that its wolf head had a lot of hair loss, and its body was also scarred.
After Lou Jinchen saw it, it whispered a few times, as if to say hello.
Lou Jinchen thought it was talking, but he didn't understand.
"Xiao Tian's mind has declined too much over the years." "Still, he was able to find his father's bones," said the old man. ”
The old man served Lou Jinchen another plate of hot mutton.
Lou Jinchen was not polite, he began to eat, he couldn't smell any fragrance anymore, because it was too cold, his nose seemed to be frozen and he didn't have the ability to smell the smell.
Mutton tastes good in the mouth, and when swallowed in the stomach, it is also warm.
He drank wine and ate meat at the same time.
He didn't speak for a while, until he finished eating a bite of meat, and then said again, "Why are you waiting here?" ”
"I've been waiting here." The old man said: "The day before yesterday, someone told me that there was a heroic man in the sword who would fight here, let me prepare." ”
Lou Jinchen swallowed a mouthful of meat and said: "I, originally had an agreement with someone, the other party showed me the advanced cheats, I did one thing for him, and later, I felt that I had helped him, but obviously, people didn't think so." ”
"But it doesn't matter, I was going this way at the time, and my mind was also thinking to see if I could kill it." The hoarfrost on Lou Jinchen's body became heavier and heavier.
The old man couldn't help asking, "Can you bear the frost on your body?" ”
Lou Jinchen laughed and said: "As long as there is a fiery heart, people will never be frozen, uncle, if you can still hurry, let's go and see my ability together." ”
