[795] The gift of the world
The sky glowed with a hint of fish's belly.
The long night is coming to an end.
Sitting under a sheep's horn tree, Gangyan glanced up at the sky and muttered, "It's almost dawn." ”
He turned his head again and looked at a few of his fellow clansmen who had been tied up into rice dumplings, and a flash of sympathy flashed in his eyes.
The totem master immediately put away his pity, and his eyes became cold again.
Being chosen by the tribe to be a living sacrifice is indeed worthy of sympathy.
But trying to escape and betraying the Steelhorn tribe is not worthy of sympathy at all.
Gangyan seemed to be talking to himself, and it seemed to affirm his position: "All traitors deserve to die!" ”
A fighter next to him took over the conversation: "These dogs have been chasing us all night, and we are really tired." ”
The escaped sacrifice was a fighter and six of his family members.
It was because of this that the tribe sent a totem division to lead the team.
The fighter put on a flattering attitude, lowered his voice and said: "My lord, the rebellious little daughter has a bit of a posture, do you want to ......?"
Although this is only half said, everyone who understands it understands.
Gangyan was a little moved, and a little hesitant: "The sacrifice must be kept pure, isn't it okay to do this?" ”
The fighter knew that the other party was an old pervert, and immediately said, "As long as you don't say it, how can the tribe know?" When you're done, just throw it into the river and wash it. ”
Steel Rock is even more moved.
The fighter said more energetically: "My lord, you have been born and died for the tribe for so many years, shouldn't you enjoy the sacrifice?" ”
The creature smiled: "You should know that this kind of thing is actually a lot in the tribe. ”
Steel Rock was said to be moved.
He turned his head to look at the young priestess, and saw that her face was full of tears, and she suddenly lost her desire.
Never mind.
It's just a poor man, so why bother?
Gangyan shook his head, and his face suddenly became indifferent: "Don't say it!" ”
The fighter smiled wryly, not daring to speak any more.
Steelstone then issued an order: "Let people prepare food at once, and after eating, return to the tribe with the traitor." ”
The fighter answered and obediently left.
Soon.
A group of green sheep people got busy.
Some people went out to hunt, and some people gathered firewood.
Gangyan sat quietly for a while, and his right hand suddenly moved, and an illusory blade leaf came out of the palm of his hand in an instant.
His left hand stroked the illusory leaves, trying his best to communicate with the leaves, and the surface of the leaves flashed with faint ripples, which looked quite wonderful.
This is honing the power of the totem.
The Totem Shadow of Steel Rock is derived from the Tribe's Blade Tree Totem Pole, and the blade tree's leaves are like blades, and Totem Shadow also inherits this trait.
Constantly honing the power of the totem can make the phantom blades sharper, thereby increasing the lethality of the totem shadow.
After a while.
The steel rock pointed the blade at a stone and swiped it lightly through the air.
The stone is silently divided into two halves, and the cross-section is smooth like a mirror.
He nodded with satisfaction and muttered, "Of the more than thirty totem masters of the entire tribe, my strength should be in the top ten." ”
That's when it happened.
A voice suddenly sounded in Gangyan's ears: "The power of the totem is only used for battle, it's a pity." ”
He was startled and instinctively turned his head to look.
I saw a young Qingyang man, sitting in the back with a smile on his face.
Although he looked very friendly about this, Gangyan only felt creepy.
This person appeared behind him, but he didn't notice it, and he didn't know when the other party appeared.
This means that if the other party wants to kill himself, there is no difficulty at all.
Gangyan's right hand trembled, and he asked in a dry voice, "Your Excellency, what do you have to say?" ”
This young Qingyang man is naturally Cheng Han.
Instead of answering the question, he asked, "Do you know why the blades of the blade tree are so sharp?" ”
Steelrock was a little dazed.
In this guy's cognition, the blade tree has always been sharp, as if people want to eat and drink, it's just a matter of course, and he has never thought about the reason behind it.
Gangyan said honestly: "Please forgive me for being ignorant. ”
Cheng Han squatted down, grabbed a handful of red dirt, and explained, "The answer is in the dirt." ”
Gangyan was even more confused.
What does this have to do with dirt?
Cheng Han narrated: "The earth under our feet is unusually rich in iron.
"Blade trees have a peculiar ability to draw on iron to form a thin blade at the edge of the blade.
"That's the fundamental reason why blade leaves are so sharp."
Although he didn't understand whether the other party was friend or foe, and he didn't understand what the other party's purpose was, Gangyan still said sincerely: "Your knowledge is too profound. ”
Cheng Han tilted his palm, letting the dirt slide from his hand, and continued: "I feel more and more that the Qingyang clan has taken the wrong path. ”
Among the many worlds he has seen, in terms of iron content, the Qingyang world is definitely the first, several times higher than the second place.
He really felt that the Qingyang people had wasted this huge fortune.
Gangyan said respectfully: "Please give me advice." ”
The guy peeked around and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
The noisy sound of preparing breakfast now became very eerie, as if it came from a very distant place.
This made Gangyan more and more frightened, and he had no idea of making small moves at all.
Cheng Han said to himself: "The real purpose of the blade tree's absorption of the characteristics of the iron element is not to act as a totem pole, but in other aspects. ”
He waved his right hand lightly, and a little green fell into the red dirt.
"Poof!"
A blade tree sprang out in an instant, and grew to a height of two meters at breakneck speed.
Although it is short, it is leafy.
Gangyan immediately noticed that the leaves on the branches were very different from normal blade trees.
The leaves are noticeably thicker and have different shapes.
Cheng Han glanced at him and said with a smile: "You can pluck a leaf and take a look." ”
Gangyan obediently complied, reaching out and plucking a leaf.
The moment you get it.
This guy couldn't help but sigh: "The leaves are so heavy." ”
Gangyan pinched the blade, only to realize that there was something inside.
He tore open the leaves in two or two clicks, and was immediately stunned.
I saw a blade mixed in with it.
This scene once again subverted the cognition of this Qingyang fighter.
Iron flakes grow out of the leaves?
That's an exaggeration!
Cheng Han smiled slightly and corrected the other party's cognition: "This is a blade." ”
He plucked another leaf and removed the iron from it.
With another finger, one more finger turns into a sharp blade.
This kind of "freehand blade" ability made Gangyan's pupils shrink.
Cheng Han pinched the end of the blade again, a flash of green light flashed through his fingertips, and the slender vine grew rapidly, turning into a knife handle.
Thereupon.
A sharp knife was formed.
When Gangyan saw this knife, it was like a thunderclap sounded in his head.
In his eyes.
It's not just a knife.
Rather, it was a door to a new world, which was pushed open.
Cheng Han waved the knife lightly, making a "whoosh" sound, and asked, "Do you understand the meaning?" ”
Gangyan suddenly became excited, and stammered when he spoke: "I...... One ...... we need All metal utensils can be ...... Can grow out of trees. ”
Cheng Han affirmed: "That's right, that's it!" ”
He couldn't help but sigh: "Metal-absorbing trees like the Blade Tree and the Sheep's Horn Tree are obviously the world's generous gifts to the Qingyang Clan, but we have wasted the world's gifts. ”
Sheep's horn trees also have the property of absorbing iron, but the main part of the absorption is the trunk, and their bark and trunk are extremely hard.
The Qingyang people widely use the bark of trees to make armor, and use the trunk as a building material, and the furniture and houses made of Qingyang wood are very strong, and they have been used for more than 100 years.
Cheng Han feels that each green sheep wood is a natural casting workshop, which can completely make large metal parts.
It's a pity that for tens of thousands of years, no Qingyang person has thought of this.
They could have had a developed civilization, but they ignored the treasures that were close at hand, and still lived a primitive life that was almost slash-and-burn.
At this moment.
Cheng Han Shi Ran handed the knife to the other party and made a gesture towards the "sacrifice": "You use this knife to cut their rope." ”
Steelstone stared at the knife and fell into deep hesitation.
He knew very well in his heart that once he took the sword, he would never be able to turn back, and the tribe would see him as a rebel.
But.
If you don't pick it up, I'm afraid you'll ......
Gangyan took a deep breath and immediately made a decision - take it!
The guy stretched out his hands and took the knife, knelt down on one knee and made a big salute: "As you wish!" ”
As soon as the words fell.
It was as if the invisible barrier had been broken.
The cacophony of the surrounding sounds suddenly reappeared.
Meanwhile.
Cheng Han is also gone.
Gangyan was stunned for a moment, and a cold voice sounded in his ears: "Kill everyone else!" ”
He hurriedly responded: "Understood!" ”
Gangyan stood up, his face showing a murderous aura.
Soon.
The camp was littered with corpses.
Gangyan looked at this scene and sighed deeply.
Now, he can't turn back, so he can only go all the way to the dark.
But what made him even more awe-inspiring was the method of the Lord, who only showed a small trick and forced himself to betray the tribe.
on the side.
Several "sacrifices" who escaped death had shocked faces, and their eyes were also full of great confusion.
Gangyan carefully put away the knife and smiled at them: "From now on, we are the people of the Dawn Tribe. ”
The "we" in it deliberately accentuates the tone to indicate that everyone is in the same camp.
The name "Dawning Tribe" is the information that inexplicably appeared in the mind of this thing after killing all his former subordinates.
Gangyan waved his hand vigorously: "Let's go!" ”
After all that is said.
He was the first to take the lead.
Several new members looked at each other for a while, and honestly followed.
After a while.
A white bird flew over and circled over the crowd's heads.
Gangyan glanced up at it, with a look of surprise: "Could this be the guide assigned by Your Excellency?" ”
In the message you left behind, you said that a guide would come to show you the way later.
He thought it was unlikely, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "How can a bird be a guide?" I'm really thinking too much. ”
"Wow!"
The sound of birdsong came down.
Gangyan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help muttering: "Awesome! ”
