[Alliance Leader Plus 2/17]
Although she was very eager to know the answer, she still waited patiently until the Wu clan was ready for the inheritance ceremony of the Great Medicine Witch. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
About two days later, that is, eight days after the Divine Prefecture, the Great Medicine Witch came to Ai Qinglan: "O healer of the gods, come with me." We'll tell you about earthly crafts. ā
He led Ai Qinglan to the middle of the forest. There's a huge tree there. It's so huge, and before you get closer, the ground is already covered with roots. The aerial roots extending from the branches of the tree grasped the floating soil again, and moss grew on the floating soil, and plants grew on the fertile soil after the moss had decayed......
This tree almost holds up a forest.
"Such a huge tree, there is no demonization......" Chen Feng exclaimed slightly.
Even if he was suspended in mid-air, he could feel the terrifyingly dense essence of plants and trees in the roots. It's almost like a great river.
"Wu Sheng'an tree...... the word 'Sheng'an' can also be used as the meaning of 'home' in the knot of the Wu people. All Wu settlements revolve around this tree. Xue Bufan introduced to some monks who had never come: "It is said that the knotting technique of the Datou people exists to communicate with the Saint Ann Tree. ā
"With such a huge essence, it should be easy to demonize. And I can also feel that the demon element of this tree is full of spirituality. However, there was no sign of enlightenment in the whole tree. "Chenfeng is a little strange.
"Could it be that the power is too strong, but it misses the opportunity to open the spirit?" Tong Xu said: "Who knows?"
Chen Feng was silent. For some reason, he remembered what he had said to Tong Xu before about rice.
Soon, the group came to the foot of the Saint's Tree. Here, there are already five apprentices waiting. They were all dressed in grotesque costumes sewn from silk-like fabrics, and their faces were painted with green and red paint. They had a long staff sandwiched between the elbow joints of their left forelimb and right hind limb, and the head of the staff was inlaid with red nephrite. They also had a long staff on their right fore and left hind limbs, the head of which was inlaid with purple crystals. All the apprentices had four seals, and two scepters crossed over their chests.
Ruby and amethyst symbolize the two moons of Tianwu, respectively.
Just as the two gas giants in Tianyi's orbit are considered to be the "two ends" of the sun's power, the two moons of Tianqi are also regarded as the two ends of "wisdom".
The Great Medicine Witch's hand dipped in the paint pan, and then lightly touched Ai Qinglan's face. Use the middle finger [the middle of the seven fingers] to outline the red line, and the ring finger [the one on the outside of the middle finger] to outline the green line. Then, he put the two canes into Ai Qinglan's hands. He looked at Ai Qinglan's five fingers and knee joints again, and gave up teaching her how to seal and hold the cane, as long as she held the two scepters.
Ai Qinglan seemed to find all this interesting.
Then, a group of Wu people lit a fire around it, and a large amount of fresh spices were thrown into the fire. Smoke billowed from incomplete burning, but unusually fragrant. The great medicine witch danced with his hands. The mana of the Yudan period stirred the atmosphere, and the smoke stirred at high speed with the wind, as if forming a translucent silkworm cocoon.
Those spices appear to include a lot of inhalants. Soon, the apprentices fell into an unusually high state, all four nostrils dilated slightly, and their faces and fingers began to flush.
However, most of Tianwu's plant-based organic matter had no effect on the human race in Shenzhou, and Ai Qinglan was only choked and coughed at this point.
Another Tianlingling disciple sniffed the fragrant substance in the air, but didn't notice anything, just whispered, "This is a very complicated ...... Very complex complex spice compound. I suspect that this should have the effect of moistening the lungs for those of the Wu people......"
"Complicated medicine ......" Xue Bufan pondered: "From the handwriting of the great medicine witch? Speaking of which, the Wu people's respect for medicine is incredibly high, and after knowing that Senior Sister Ai is a 'healer', they respect her very much, and even we as 'children of the gods' have no ......."
"Maybe it's just...... Are they short of medical care?" Chen Feng stared intently at the place where the ritual was taking place. All his attention was now on Ai Qinglan.
"No, no, no, no matter how the Wu tribe is, it is also a civilization with immortal paths. Xue Bufan said in a low voice.
The Wu people have monks who can cultivate, which means that many diseases cannot kill the Wu people even if they are infected, and healing is even easier for the Wu people.
In the Immortal Dao, the one who is truly respected is not the healer, but the alchemist. Even if it is Xu Xueqing's kind, what others admire is not the "medical skills" itself, but Xu Xueqing's identity as a "doctor in the fit period".
The Wu clan had not seen Ai Qinglan's "medical skills", but only knew that she was a healer, so they showed a respectful attitude.
At this time, the Great Medicine Witch took out a brown jar again. This jar is very different from ordinary containers, the seal is actually sealed with metal, and there is a "net" of fine metal chains on the outside. Spiritual power circulated on the net, indicating that it was some kind of sealing method.
The Great Medicine Witch was suspended in the air, holding a clay pot high in his hind limbs, and chanting the prayers of the Wu tribe in his mouth.
"O red beast, demon of power, in the witness of the gods, forge a knot of wisdom. ā
"O green beast, predatory demon, no longer eats our home"
"White Celestial Beast, Wriggling Demon, Don't Untie Our Knot"
......
After a long prayer, one pair of the Great Medicine Witch's upper limbs held on to the clay pot, and then fumbled for it. Immediately after, it divided its hands and used it skillfully, and the complex rope net was directly dissolved into two metal chains.
Then he screamed, "O holy medicine!"
Xue Bufan muttered, "I'm beginning to doubt the necessity of this ritual...... It's like a cult ......"
The Great Medicine Witch's body slowly sank and came to the first person. Then he reached out and tapped it in the clay pot, and then, with his middle finger, he applied the pale yellow holy oil ointment to the nostrils of the apprentice, once from left to right.
Upon smelling the holy ointment, the apprentice immediately showed a stunned and shocked expression, as if knowledge was really entering his head. The Great Medicine Witch did not stop, but walked towards the second and third.
When the fourth person arrived, the first person to be ointmented suddenly trembled. Then, his breathing began to gradually become rapid.
Among the onlookers, there was a short cry of regret.
"It's a shame that he doesn't look like he's going to pass the test of the holy oil......" he said.
The Great Medicine Witch walked up to Ai Qinglan. He doesn't seem to have performed a ritual for creatures with two nostrils. Ai Qinglan still had a smile on her face. After thinking for a moment, the Great Medicine Witch scraped a small ball of ointment with his fingers, and then pointed at Ai Qinglan's midriff.
Ai Qinglan opened her mouth wide, as if she wanted to laugh, but her body froze. The "laughing" expression gradually changed to "smile".
She felt it too.
This caused a small controversy among the other monks.
"Inhaled hallucinogens?" Xue Bufan's first thought was this: "Many Shinto also use that kind of thing to ......"
"However, more than half of the hallucinogens in this world have no effect on us. The other immediately retorted.
"Is it really 'knowledge'?"
"No, it's impossible, I obviously didn't feel any abnormal mana fluctuations around me......"
Chen Feng also made a judgment: "Sister Lan's soul has not been let go at all, and there is no other existence to instill memories in her. ā
Xue Bufan said: "I originally thought that this ceremony was to communicate with a great being, so that that great being could instill knowledge for them...... Is this the ointment?"
A drug can actually play the role of "passing on knowledge"?
Of course, this is not impossible. Among the many pills, the alchemist's own thoughts and will are refined, and a pill is equivalent to a true meaning inheritance. This elixir can naturally pass on knowledge.
However, not to mention that the soul is not suitable for preserving memories in the first place, just talking about the elixir, the one who can refine this elixir must be a high-level monk, and the elixir itself must also have obvious aura.
And the holy ointment on the hands of the Great Medicine Witch is, in everyone's perception, simply animal fat mixed with spices.
At this time, the bushes behind everyone shook slightly. Xue Bufan turned around and found that Bosso was there, and there was fear in his eyes.
He was also originally a disciple of the Great Medicine Witch. At this time, if he hadn't given up on his own, he would have been over there now.
At this time, those Wu apprentices gasped even more violently. They **** obvious ups and downs, but it seems that they can't breathe oxygen. At the same time, the intoxication on their faces became more pronounced.
Suddenly, Ai Qinglan's body also began to tremble.
Tatsukaze almost rushed out.
If it weren't for the moonfall glaze, it really wouldn't poison the human race...... But it's really hard to believe! The Wu people over there are really about to suffocate, this ......
Bosso, on the other hand, let out a wail. He felt that Ai Qinglan was also hanging.
Yu Du looked at the five apprentices nervously, not knowing what they were thinking, while the Great Medicine Witch Bosso was patrolling back and forth, his face anxious.
At this moment, Ai Qinglan stood up.
"I see. Her lips opened and closed. Everyone heard him say it in the Terran language.
"I see!"
Her arms shook, and several streaks of white light shot into the five apprentices. Then, she jumped up and grabbed the upper limbs of the great medicine witch: "Give me some of the remaining holy oil ointment." ā
"It's all yours, healer of the gods. Serves five. Seeing that all five apprentices had turned to calm, the Great Medicine Witch was amazed. He happily stuffed the brown clay pot in his hand into Ai Qinglan's hand: "Thank you, healer of the gods......!
"I'll give you more ointment in the future!" An inexplicable smile appeared on Ai Qinglan's face: "...... soon" (to be continued.) )
