Chapter 2: The Great Wilderness Burns the Body Sutra
The family of Lieshan Ember was immersed in the joy of Hong Jun's awakening.
Although the husband and wife of Lieshan Ember felt strange that their eldest son could talk and name himself as soon as he woke up, their son's health trumped everything, and seeing that Hong Jun's complexion was getting better and better, and his body was getting better day by day, they left this little weirdness behind.
Half a year later, Hong Jun was able to get up on his own, and after recuperation, his body recovered very quickly, he suddenly grew a head taller, and his proportions were coordinated, although he was still very weak, at least he was no longer a skinny deformity.
Hong Jun's guess on the day of his birth was roughly correct, he was really reborn into a primitive society, a tribe of less than 3,000 people, called the Shaoyan Division, and his father Lieshan Ember was a member of the Shaoyan Division, and became the new chief of the Shaoyan Department when Hong Jun was three years old.
The Shaoyan tribe and the thousands of tribes within a radius of thousands of miles all belonged to the Lieshan clan, and the entire clan lived by hunting, with men going into the mountains and forests to hunt and gather fresh fruits, and women handling prey at home, using raw meat as food, and sewing clothes after boiling furs, or collecting them and selling them to foreign caravans in exchange for weapons and cloth.
In general, Shaoyan is a rather backward civilization.
Early in the morning, Hong Jun sat in front of his house, watching his father Lieshan Ember wielding a wheel giant axe in the courtyard against the rising sun.
The rising sun spread all over the land, and also spread the entire courtyard, making the giant axe in my father's hand shine brightly.
Hong Jun looked up, and a huge sun rose in the eastern sky, occupying almost a quarter of the sky, covering the sky, red like fire, and emitting endless heat.
"What a big sun!"
Although it has been half a year since he regained his sobriety, Hong Jun always can't help but sigh every time he sees the sun.
He had always guessed that it was a red giant, but he was not sure, because after dark, a "moon" would rise in the east.
Seeing the "moon" of this world for the first time, Hong Jun almost didn't jump.
Hong Jun couldn't believe that it was the moon, because it looked almost exactly as big as the sun, except for the low brightness, none of which matched the definition of "moons orbiting planets", and the trajectory perfectly coincided with the sun, Hong Jun seriously suspected that this "moon" was actually the sun that appeared during the day, but for some reason the brightness was reduced at night.
In fact, Hong Jun woke up soon after discovering something unusual about this world.
The duration of each day here is extremely accurate, similar to the rotation cycle of the earth in the previous life, about 24 hours a day and night, 360 days a year, alternating between the four seasons, very accurate, as if it had been set by someone, with Hong Jun's current computing power, he could not detect even a microsecond of error!
You know, even the rotation of the earth has a slight error every day, but this world does not.
But the sun and "moon" in this world are so exaggerated that it even makes Hong Jun wonder if there is a planet under his feet, or if it is not the universe in his previous life at all!
In addition, another incident also made Hong Jun suspect that this world is not simple.
In the mouths of my parents, this world is vast, thousands of miles away, and there are many very different races and countless exotic beasts. The Lieshan clan is one of them, and his mother, Jiang Xi, is a human race, from the Great Chu Dynasty north of the Great Wilderness.
Jiang Xi was born in a big family, when he followed the caravan into the Lieshan Wilderness to experience, he was accidentally injured and rescued by the Lieshan Ash, the two fell in love and became husband and wife, Jiang Ji stayed in the Shaoyan Department since then, and gave birth to Hong Jun in the second year, and has not returned to the Great Chu Dynasty.
Hong Jun roughly guessed the process, and for him, it was a rather clichΓ© story.
Whether it is the Lieshan clan or the human race, their civilization is very backward in Hong Jun's eyes, but in terms of individual strength, they far surpass the human beings on the earth, and they each have a set of cultivation methods to strengthen themselves through training.
The Burning Mountain Ember in front of him was carrying out some kind of cultivation.
"Whew!"
"Hey ho ......"
Burning Mountain Ember kept swinging the giant axe, and he had already seen Hong Jun watching from the side, but he didn't stop, but practiced several times in a row, as if he intended to let Hong Jun see more clearly.
Hong Jun observed that his father's pupils were even redder than usual, like two burning fires, his skin also became red, and the muscles inside seemed to be surging, making his strength surge, so that he could easily swing a giant axe weighing hundreds of pounds.
Every time the giant axe of the Burning Mountain Ember was swung, a force was transmitted to the axe body through his hands, making the axe stain red, drawing a faint red mark in the air, fluctuating, looming, difficult for ordinary people to notice, but Hong Jun easily captured the trajectory of these red marks. In his eyes, these pale red traces had an extremely high energy response, and the energy changed in size with his father's movements, matching the moves of the giant axe, and it was obvious that it had been tempered thousands of times to be so handy.
"Father, what are you practicing?" it wasn't until several times later that Hong Jun asked out loud.
Lieshan Ember stopped his movements and smiled at Hong Jun, he practiced martial arts here early in the morning to arouse his son's interest, and said: "This is a set of Wanjun Seven Style Axes, which I got martial arts from the temple. β
Hong Jun shook his head, this was not the answer he wanted, and asked, "What I want to know is what is the kind of red light that can make my father's strength bigger?"
"Can you see that?" Lieshan Ember was taken aback, startled by his son's insight, his expression suddenly became solemn, and he said slowly: "This is the foundation of our Lieshan clan, called the Great Wilderness Burning Body Sutra, which is a technique handed down by the Heavenly God himself. β
"The Great Wilderness burns the body. Hong Jun's eyes lit up, and he automatically ignored the four words of the Heavenly God's own transmission, and asked, "Can I learn?"
The Lieshan clan claims to be a descendant of the god of fire in the sky, and they love fire by nature and like to be close to flames, so every household has a large brazier. In the center of the village of Shaoyanbu, there is an altar made of stone, on the altar is a large brazier with a diameter of about zhang, the firewood burning in it has been specially treated, and the flame can reach more than three zhang high after ignition, and there are special people to guard the altar day and night, and it burns all year round.
In his previous life, as a scientist, Hong Jun didn't believe in any gods, but he inherited half of his father's bloodline, and he did have a special love for hot environments under the sun and around braziers.
Because of the existence of the light brain, Hong Jun's body has been very weak, and the injury caused by ten years of sleep is not something that can be healed in a year and a half, although he has recovered well in the past six months, but he is not satisfied. Moreover, the ability of the light brain depends on the amount of energy supplied, if you cultivate the Great Wilderness Burning Body Sutra, you can not only strengthen your body, but also provide more energy for the light brain and play a greater role.
"Hahaha......"
Burning Mountain Ember laughed happily: "Of course you can learn, you are the son of my Burning Mountain Ember, if you can't learn the Great Wilderness Burning Body Sutra, then who is qualified?" He changed his head and said: "But before that, you have to go to the priest to learn to read and write, and then you can cultivate the Great Wilderness Burning Body Sutra." β
"Literacy?" Hong Jun was surprised, this primitive tribe still has a writing system?
"Yes, literacy, how can you understand the exercises if you don't know how to read, the mantra of the Great Wilderness Burning Sutra is very profound, if you can't read, it's useless for me to explain it. Lieshan Ember said with a serious face, and quickly made a decision: "Generally, children are sent to the priest to learn words at the age of five, you are already ten years old, but it is not too late, and when you recognize all the words, you can start to cultivate the Great Wilderness Burning Body Sutra." β
"Good. β
Hong Jun immediately agreed, and in his eyes, such a trivial matter as reading and writing was simpler than eating and drinking.
