Chapter 13: The Celestial Master's Mount
The sorceress walked in front with a clay pot, everyone followed behind her, Wu Dongfang reluctantly followed after observing the surrounding terrain, the north and south sides of this mountain peak are cliffs and deep valleys, only this one road can be walked.
After walking a few hundred meters nervously, there was a roar again in the eastern mountains, this time the roar lasted longer than the last two times, or "uh-huh", uh-huh was a heavy nasal voice, ah, it was a deafening roar, although he didn't know what this animal was, but he could hear that the other party was not just not very happy now, but was angry.
The witch may have noticed this too, but she didn't stop.
While following everyone forward, Wu Dongfang's heart was full of doubts, according to everyone's previous conversation, it can be seen that this animal has been living here for many years, such a manic animal will undoubtedly pose a serious threat to the villagers transporting ore, even if the wizard can't beat it herself, she can report to her superiors and ask a more powerful wizard to come and kill it, but she didn't do this, but prepared food for the animal, which is obviously a compromise and connivance for criminals, this kind of practice will only fuel their arrogance and make them more and more arrogant。
At the same time, he was also ready to defend himself, he had already seen a large tree in the jungle to the southeast was shaking violently, and it was not difficult to tell from the huge canopy that it was a huge tree, and being able to shake it meant that the animal was a big one.
There is no road on the north side of the peak, the road is around the south side of the mountainside, from the west to the south, Wu Dongfang saw the animal, he thought it was another mysterious creature he had never seen, but he didn't expect this animal he actually knew, this is a huge black bear, this jungle can often see black bears, the size is similar to modern black bears, but the guy in front of him is more than three times larger than its kind. Please Baidu black じ岩じ pavilion,Thank you!
Seeing the giant bear, Wu Dongfang's mind changed, he didn't want to defend himself, he wanted to escape, what made him make this decision was not only the huge size of the giant bear, but also the eyes of the giant bear when he suddenly turned back, its left eye was blind, only one right eye, he saw the violent killing domineering from the only remaining right eye of the giant bear.
The giant bear noticed the arrival of the people, let go of the crumbling tree with its sharp claws, and landed on all four paws and walked west.
Seeing the giant bear coming, Wu Dongfang was secretly ready to turn around and accelerate, but the giant bear did not pounce on everyone, but walked to a huge bluestone in the north of the road and stopped, and looked at the wizard on the south side of the bluestone with that one-eyed look.
The sorceress fell to her knees, lowered her brass staff, and raised the pot above her head with both hands. At the same time, everyone behind her also fell to their knees.
Wu Dongfang was stunned, he didn't expect the sorceress to be so spineless, it was already a shame to offer food to the beasts, and they even knelt down for the giant bear.
"If you want to kneel, you kneel, anyway, Lao Tzu doesn't kneel. Wu Dongfang said to himself.
The bluestone where the giant bear is located is the size of half a house, densely covered with deep paw prints, there are a large number of trees lying within dozens of meters around the bluestone, the thickest two people can't hold hands together, these trees are caught by the giant bear, and there are paw prints left on each tree. In addition, based on the decay of the fallen tree, it is not difficult to see that this giant bear has been living here for a long time.
The giant bear gasped and glared at the witch angrily, Wu Dongfang had no good impression of this witch, and then saw her kneeling down to the beast without any dignity, and couldn't help but have a dark thought in his heart, wishing that she was slapped to death by the giant bear's paw.
It's a pity that he didn't get his wish, the giant bear didn't kill the wizard, and after calming down his rapid breathing, he slowly stretched out his two forepaws to take the clay pot that the witch held above his head, poured the contents of the clay pot on the bluestone with his backhand, and waited until the liquid suspected of honey inside dried up, and returned the jar to the wizard.
Wu Dongfang was dumbfounded, he had seen a lot of roadblocks and robberies, and for the first time, he saw the money taken away and the bag left.
The sorceress took the pot, stood upright, and waved to everyone behind her, and the group walked forward slowly and quietly.
Wu Dongfang followed cautiously, and as soon as he got closer, he noticed that the giant bear's lip hair had turned white, which showed that it was already very old.
The giant bear was licking the honey from the bluestone, a similar trade that might have been done many times before, and the place where the honey was located had been licked out of a shallow pit the size of a face.
Wu Dongfang walked past it, and the giant bear ignored it.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh~" Just as he was relieved and wanted to take a long breath, the rice bucket began to call.
The bear looked up suddenly.
Seeing this, Wu Dongfang held back his rough breath and slowly turned his head, only to see that the giant bear was staring directly at him with that one-eyed eye.
Wu Dongfang didn't dare to move, at this time, the giant bear was less than three meters away from him, and it was definitely too late to run.
The sorceress who was originally walking in front found that Wu Dongfang had been stopped, so she hurriedly turned around and ran back, blocking in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "What did you just do?"
"I didn't do anything. Wu Dongfang was ashamed, he didn't expect that the witch who he wished he had been killed by the black bear would come back to save him at a critical moment.
At this moment, the rice bucket screamed and peeked out of his pocket.
When the giant bear heard the cry of the rice bucket, his eyes suddenly became extremely solemn, he stretched out his front paws to remove the sorceress who was blocking the front, and tilted his head to look at the rice bucket that Wu Dongfang was holding in front of his chest.
"Don't move. The sorceress grabbed Wu Dongfang, who wanted to escape.
"What does it want to do?" Wu Dongfang asked nervously.
The sorceress shook her head and motioned for him not to speak.
The rice bucket didn't know that danger was coming, it probably smelled honey and crawled out with a snort.
The giant bear slowly approached, walked up to Wu Dongfang, stretched out his front paws and grabbed the cloth pocket on his chest.
Wu Dongfang couldn't bear to see the rice bucket suffer misfortune, and had the intention to escape with it, the sorceress probably guessed what he was thinking, clenched his hand, and signaled him not to move.
The giant bear has no claw sheath, its claws are exposed, its claws are in the shape of a hook and sickle, more than twenty centimeters in length, seeing such sharp claws stretching out towards the rice bucket, Wu Dongfang was very worried, and secretly tried to break free from the hands of the witch, he thought of the scene when the rice bucket crawled out of the stone circle and snuggled him to sleep, the rice bucket was weak, and he had the obligation to protect it.
While he was wrestling with the sorceress in private, the giant bear had already pinched the bucket out of his cloth pocket and placed it on the bluestone where he was.
The rice bucket did not live up to its name, completely ignoring the danger in front of him, smelled the smell and found the stall of honey, regardless of the three, seven, twenty-one, and immediately started eating.
As the rice bucket feasted, the giant bear tilted its head to look at it.
Wu Dongfang nervously observed the eyes of the giant bear, if the animal is angry, it will be reflected in the eyes first, but he did not see anger in the eyes of the giant bear, but saw the nervousness and excitement like a human.
"Is this Pixiu of yours male or female?" asked the sorceress in a low voice.
"Male, what's wrong?" Wu Dongfang looked at the witch suspiciously, he could feel that the witch was trembling.
After Wu Dongfang finished speaking, the sorceress trembled even more, and at the same time muttered to herself, "Could it be its son?"
"Do you think they look like the two of them?" Wu Dongfang frowned and asked, bears and pandas are two completely different animals, and the rice bucket is definitely the offspring of the two pandas, and it is impossible to have such a black bear wild father.
"West Silver. The sorceress changed her pronunciation.
This time Wu Dongfang understood, the pronunciation of descendants and successors in the Xia Dynasty language is very similar, and what the sorceress wants to express is that the rice bucket may be the successor of the black bear.
As they whispered, the bear turned and walked over to them, and when they got closer, he grabbed the sorceress's brass staff.
"What is it, what does it want to do?" Wu Dongfang asked eagerly.
"The Bear King is the mount of the last White Tiger Celestial Master of our Jin Clan. The sorceress looked nervously at the bear and the rice bucket.
"What is the White Tiger Heavenly Master?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"The leader of all the wizards, mages and celestial masters of our Jin clan, together with the King of Jin, leads the Jin clansmen. The witch was absent-minded, her attention was on the rice bucket.
As soon as the sorceress said this, Wu Dongfang immediately understood that the Xia Dynasty was a dynasty where divine power and royal power coexisted, King Jin was equivalent to the commander of the group army, and the White Tiger Heavenly Master was equivalent to the political commissar of the group army and belonged to the spiritual leader.
"You said it was the mount of your last Heavenly Master, but what about your Heavenly Master?" Wu Dongfang asked curiously, at this time the giant bear was holding the copper staff to stop the rice bucket from licking honey.
"It's the White Tiger Heavenly Master, not the Heavenly Master, there are many Heavenly Masters, but there is only one White Tiger Heavenly Master. The sorceress said casually.
"Where is he and why is his mount here?" Wu Dongfang asked again.
"Don't you ask?" the sorceress was nervous.
"Can you let go first?" Wu Dongfang said with a frown, the sorceress clutched his hand tightly in nervousness, her nails almost embedded in his flesh.
The sorceress reacted and hurriedly let go of her hand, and at the same time said quickly, "Our White Tiger Heavenly Master of the Jin Clan disappeared seventy years ago, and after his disappearance, the Bear King came here to wait for his successor, and has been waiting until now. ”
"How does it know that its successor will appear here? Did the Heavenly Master tell him? Also, how does it know what kind of animal its successor is, and how does it know if this animal is its successor?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"The Bear King is a mount given by the heavens to the White Tiger Celestial Master, they are spiritual, and they are able to find and discern their successors on their own, and they don't need to be reminded by the White Tiger Celestial Master. The sorceress replied patiently.
"But this little thing isn't a bear. Wu Dongfang said.
"Bears and Pixiu are all bears. The sorceress said.
"Donkeys and mules are all horses. Wu Dongfang said with a smile.
"Bite fast, bite fast. The sorceress clenched her fists in both hands, and the bear was luring the rice bucket to nibble on the copper staff.
"Is it possible to bite off the copper rod and be the bear king?" asked Wu Dongfang.
"Ordinary Pixiu bites constantly copper staff. The sorceress nodded.
"No need to try, that's it. Wu Dongfang was relieved.
The witch turned her head in confusion, Wu Dongfang pulled out the dagger on her waist and pointed to a gap in the back of the knife, "See, this is the ...... it gnawed"
