Chapter 40: A Stick
The villagers were not starved to death or frozen to death in the cold winter, and their lives were extended. They were convinced that it was the gods who had saved them, and that the power of pure faith, formless and insubstantial, emanated from their meager bodies.
Ji Xiao's spirit naturally absorbed the power of faith, because these powers of faith appeared for him. The power of faith is the foundation of Shinto practice, and this power is both mixed and pure.
The reason for this is that this power comes from different individuals, purely because they are born out of pure thoughts.
"It's like crystals of different shapes. Ji Xiao had this thought in his heart.
"Ji Xiao. The voice of lifelessness appeared in Ji Xiao's ears.
Ji Xiao slowly opened his eyes, and the snow powder on his curly eyelashes fell, occasionally leaving behind, and it also melted on its own.
Wusheng showed a look of surprise, and he said, "I sensed a new wonderful power pouring into you, and tried to wake you up, but you really woke up. ”
Ji Xiao smiled mildly and said, "No life." ”
"Huh?" replied Wusheng.
Ji Xiao stretched comfortably and said with a smile: "I'm hungry, you go hunting, I'll barbecue." ”
Wusheng remembered that he hadn't eaten for a long time, and he didn't eat to replenish his body's nutrition, but to satisfy his stomach. Ji Xiao's craftsmanship is very good, and Wusheng happily turned into sword light and drilled into the dense forest.
After a short time, he hunted a beast and returned.
Ji Xiao used magic to collect the best pine dead branches in the mountains and forests, build an earthen stove, remove the fur and internal organs of the beasts, and use the ancient magic dragon stick to roast large pieces of fresh flesh and blood.
This ancient dragon stick has an extraordinary texture, it can be large or small, long or short, and it is very convenient for barbecue.
Sprinkled with spices made from the mountains and forests, and dripping on the grilled meat with fat on it, it is simply the best taste in the world.
Wusheng took a bite of the barbecue and asked, "How did you wake up?" ”
"Because of the good deeds done, good people are really rewarded. Ji Xiao said with a smile.
Wusheng said: "You are not a good person. ”
He continued, "But it's not bad." ”
"If you're not a bad person, can you please give me a bite of meat. A white-robed boy with deep facial features, holding a folding fan with a jade pendant, came leisurely.
Ji Xiao looked at him, the last time he saw a handsome boy with a folding fan, called Gongzi Mo, he was punched to death.
"I can't ask you for a bite of meat. Ji Xiao smiled.
The white-robed boy was obviously a little embarrassed, he didn't expect Ji Xiao to be so direct.
Ji Xiao said again: "But I can invite you to sit down and eat meat casually." ”
The white-robed boy laughed and said, "In the wilderness, I didn't expect to meet someone as interesting as you, my friend. ”
He sat opposite Ji Liao, picked up a branch, and used it as a knife to cut off a piece of fat and tender meat that flowed with fat. He also swallowed the meat in one bite without using spices.
A fierce beast, in exchange for ordinary people, has to eat for several days, and for Ji Xiao and them, it is a tooth sacrifice.
It didn't take long for all the meat to be eaten.
The white-robed boy intended to talk to Ji Liao, but Ji Xiao responded unhurriedly, neither enthusiastic nor cold.
Finally, the white-robed boy arched his hand and said, "Thank you two friends for your hospitality." ”
Ji Xiao smiled and said, "It's nothing, Childe may not have heard a story." ”
The white-robed boy said, "What's the story?"
Ji Xiao said: "Before the prisoners in the mortal world are beheaded, the prison people will always let them eat a good meal, so as not to get the underworld and become a starving ghost." ”
The white-robed boy looked awe-inspiring and said, "I don't quite understand what my friend meant. ”
The old god of lifelessness held his sword freely and said: "It means to send you into the Yellow Spring." ”
The white-robed boy said, "I haven't offended the two. ”
Wusheng said lightly: "You have killing intent, this is enough." ”
Suddenly, a sword mark appeared on the chest of the white-robed boy, and blood spilled wildly. He didn't even know when he was struck by the sword, and there was no warning of it.
A high-pitched chirp appeared, and a huge white eagle with bleeding from its chest soared into the sky.
There was unspeakable fear in its voice, it should not have come if it knew these two guys were so perverted.
On the sky, the clouds and smoke slipped around the big white eagle, the stars and the moon were so clear, the moonlight sprinkled down, falling in the clouds, the glow was rising, indescribably beautiful and moving.
The big white eagle didn't have time to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and a huge and shocking club suddenly appeared in front of it, and the stick slapped down mercilessly, knocking heavily on its head.
There was no blood splattering, because the hardest head of the great white eagle was directly turned into powder.
A big hand grabbed the headless body of the big white eagle and returned to the place where Ji Yu and them were roasting meat before the fireworks dispersed.
The Ancient Demon Dragon Rod returned from the void, shrunk continuously, turned into a bracelet, and put it on Ji Xiao's left wrist.
The blue-black bracelet body, flowing with a cold and deep terrifying aura, gradually disappeared.
Ji Xiao looked at the big white eagle, and if his gaze was substantial, he turned into a rope and ingested the soul in the corpse.
The soul of the big white eagle still turned into a young man, and he said tremblingly: "My lord, please spare me." ”
Ji Xiao said: "You didn't offend us, and we didn't offend you, so why did you come with murderous intent?"
The big white eagle said: "Lingtai Mountain has released a word, whoever can take your head can take your head to Lingtai Mountain to receive the exercises of the Bodhi Dharma Body, and obtain the qualification to ascend to the Bodhi Pure Land." The demon king and many strong people in the mountain realm were alarmed, and they all wanted to kill you and take your head to receive a reward. I happened to find you, so I thought about it. ”
Ji Xiao smiled faintly and said, "I see, my head is on my neck, I'm afraid that no one has the ability to take it away." ”
As soon as his voice fell, the soul of the great white eagle continued to distort, as if there was an invisible hand, poking and ravaging its soul.
After a few moments, the spirit of the great white eagle dispersed into green smoke.
Ji Xiao said to Wusheng: "I don't like to eat carved meat. ”
Wusheng said: "I don't like it either. ”
Ji Xiao said: "Its feathers are very beautiful, you peel them off, and the next time you see Qinghuo, give her a dress." ”
Wusheng said: "If you want to give gifts, why am I here to work." ”
Ji Xiao said: "I look more handsome than you." ”
He yawned and walked to the cave, he didn't control his strength before, and actually knocked the head of the big white eagle into powder, otherwise its beak could be used to make a dagger, and it would be good to give it away in the future.
It seems that he still has to retrain his strength, after all, it is estimated that there will be a group of guys who don't know whether they are alive or dead to send to the door to disturb his purity.
Wusheng pulled out the sword body, clear as water, reflecting his face, he looked at it for a while, and said to the cave: "Ji Xiao, I still think I'm more handsome than you." ”
There was no response inside.
Wusheng did not continue to dwell on this topic, diligently peeled off the feathers on the big white eagle, sorted them out, and then walked back to the cave and put the white feathers in the corner. He saw that Ji Xiao was meditating and practicing qi, without disturbing, without being alive and sleepy, so he walked to the back mountain.
There is a clear lake, and in the middle of the night, it is exceptionally quiet.
Before he reached the lake, he stopped, and at this moment there was a woman in the lake, naked.
