Elf: I've been reincarnated into a Variety Monster

Chapter 163 The Greatly Shrunk Ceremony

No matter in the fire, in the water, in the grass, in the soil, in the cloud, in that girl's skirt (cross out, there is nothing), although it is very very very very very hard, you must get it!
As written in the lyrics, Su Qian's figure appeared in the wilderness outside Yuanzhu City, flying high mountains, diving into lakes, and drilling into the bushes, looking for elves that he had never seen before.

Like an oversized yellow earthworm, but a timid and fearful brother of the earth dragon (characteristic: escape), Su Qian turned into a king of mountains and searched for a long time in the soil before finding it.

Skill: Rolling (lv0→lv2)

Hedgehogs form a group, like a swollen stingray-like thousand-needle fish (characteristic: venomous spines).

When meeting Su Qian in the form of a strange goldfish king underwater, they swelled up angrily. The largest one was like a water tank, and the smallest one was the size of a football. Countless poisonous needles and missile needles were fired at once, making Su Qian experience the thrill of piercing his body with a thousand needles.

技能：变硬（lv1→lv5）、致命针刺（lv0→lv5）、撒菱（lv0→lv4）、盐水（lv0→lv3）、报复（lv4→lv5）

At the water's edge, I met Xiaoguo (characteristic: stepping shadow) who is close to humans, with a blue body, a round head, long tentacles and a black tail.It doesn't look so strange like its adult evolution at all.

Su Qian didn't even have the nerve to do it, and ran away after swiping a picture book, but Xiaolu played with it for a while, and helped it find its lost companion.

In the river on Route 42, I found an ultra-elf that is not as big as a palm, the dark blue water mouse Lulili (characteristic: thick fat) and its evolution, which is bigger, chubby, and very cute. Lilu (Characteristic: Hercules).

Of course, there are also quite a few evolved Marilolis in the end, and the evolution requirements for this kind of elves are not harsh, even very low.

For them, Su Qian, who was 'obsessed with profit', ignored his cute appearance, and unceremoniously beat down the 'killer'.

It took a whole day to almost turn the long river upside down, and didn't stop until the sunset was about to reach the city of Kaji.

In the end, his goblin-type physical attack skill—playfulness was only Lv4, and he failed to reach Lv5.But at last he had the attacking skills of the goblin type, which was much better than empty-handed.

In the same river, elves such as light blue, slimy Wubo (characteristic: moisture), and marsh king (characteristic: water storage) live together with Mari Luli.In other words, there was originally a wide-ranging relationship between these two elves.

Su Qian, who used all means to improve his playfulness skills, naturally did not let this group of relatives go.

技能：泡沫光线（lv0→lv5）、撒娇（lv3→lv5）、摔打（lv0→lv5）、弹跳（lv0→lv3）、水流尾（lv0→lv5）、嬉闹（lv0→lv4）、水流环（lv2→lv5）、水炮（lv0→lv1）、泥巴射击（lv0→lv5）、白雾（lv0→lv5）、黑雾（lv4→lv5）、哈欠（lv0→lv3）。

In the grasslands and forests around Yuanzhu City, Su Qian found two types of grass-type elves that had never been recorded in the Kanto region.

On sunny days, look for sun seeds (characteristic: chlorophyll) and sunflower monsters (characteristic: power of the sun) facing the sun in the open space, as well as shuttlecock grass (characteristic: chlorophyll) and shuttlecocks that fly in mid-air to bask in the sun with the help of wind Flowers (Trait: Chlorophyll).

技能：扎根（lv0→lv5）、飞叶快刀（lv2→lv5）、妖精之风（lv0→lv5）。

In the end, outside the power plant in Zhu City, Su Qian accidentally encountered a group of electric elves widely distributed in the two major regions of Kanto and Chengdu, a group of small magnetites and their evolutions—three-in-one magnetites (characteristic: magnetic force) ) and Magneto (Trait: Magnetism).

技能：电击（lv0→lv5）、电球（lv0→lv3）、陀螺球（lv0→lv1）、加农光炮（lv0→lv2）、刺耳声（lv4→lv5）、电光（lv0→lv2）。

8天时间，13份图鉴，总计4572点经验，苏谦顺利升级到了42级（经验值2129/5419）。

The wild elves around Yuanzhu City, Su Qian can no longer find the types that he has not recorded, unless he guards in places like the elf arena, maybe he can guard the different types of elves brought by the trainer.

On November 11th, Su Qian and Xiaolu needed to be escorts to accompany Professor Kong on the ceremony trip to Baiyin Mountain.

Unexpectedly, serious disagreements arose before the journey started.

Bang bang bang!
In the conference room of the Chonghuo Sect Headquarters, Professor Kong slapped the table loudly and exhorted angrily: "Sikong Jinyan, I said it. According to the records in the classics studied during this period, about It took five days to start from Yuanzhu City and walk all the way to the foot of Baiyin Mountain."

As Professor Kong's guard/follower, Xiaolu stands behind him, with Su Qian in Bobo form on his shoulder.

The two 'people' looked at each other, feeling a little speechless—it turned out that Professor Kong's estimated employment time also included this period of time.

Leaving aside Baiyin Mountain, how dangerous is the road from Yuanzhu City to the foot of Baiyin Mountain within the jurisdiction of Yanmo City?
What a kind person!

It was the morning of the meeting. Before departure, there were not many people in the spacious meeting room. Except for Professor Kong and the guards he hired, the other six people, five men and one woman, were all high-ranking members of Zonghuo Cult in terms of their attire.

Sikong Jinyan, who was so fat that he pushed up his golden robe, frowned, "Professor Kong, your research is of course very solid. The school has been cooperating with your work during this time, and you can reproduce ancient rituals." It’s a good thing. But we also need to see the difference between ancient times and modern times. After so many years, the situation is different.”

He turned his head slightly, looked left and right, and signaled his subordinates to help with his eyes.

A Qing Yan immediately answered: "In ancient times, there were no cars, trains, or planes. There was no way to pass so many people at once. We had to walk. If people had a choice at that time, they could use modern transportation Tools, they certainly won't walk over slowly."

"Professor Kong, look, we have chartered a few buses to go there, and we will be there in the afternoon," a subordinate next to him with a notebook also came over, "Think about how much it will cost. So many people, all the way Walking over, 5 days, the cost must be far more, isn't this a waste?"

Well-founded, Professor Kong was obviously shaken.

Although he researched a 600-year-old festival itinerary and some ceremonies, but after all, the past and the present are different, and it is not appropriate to imitate the past.

"Professor Kong, you are a scholar. I don't know much about our Chonghuojiao. Sikong Jinyan is also the chairman and legal person of many companies we teach. If he leaves for a long time, the operation of these companies will have serious problems. Many people's livelihoods will be affected," another person persuaded earnestly, as if he was thinking of the people.

"That's right, with a market value of more than 1100 billion yuan, leaving it for three to five days is the limit," someone added immediately.

Religious fundraising and float parades are nothing more than publicity. How much money can you make by donating?
It's about the same as the cost of this event.

What Chonghuojiao really makes money is the various assets accumulated from the past to the present, including real estate, companies, and so on.

The 'Bobo' Su Qian who was wandering beside him suddenly became energetic, and his two small black eyes were about to glow golden.

what! More than 1100 billion?

This Chonghuo Cult is too capable!

No, I'm Yanli it's father, I get half of the score!
Hearing such a huge amount and the many actual situations involved, Professor Kong had no choice but to succumb to the resistance of reality, "Okay, let's do it this way. Set off at 9:[-], right? I'll go for a walk."

Walking out of the meeting room, you only need to turn around a corridor, and you can see 6 buses lined up on the square of the Chonghuo Sect Headquarters.

The believers who participated in the activity and the eight hired private detectives were boarding the bus one after another.

"Hey," Professor Kong's hands were painted vermilion railings, looking at the square in the distance, he couldn't help sighing heavily, "Is it possible to expect a response from King Feng after completely losing religious piety?"

Xiaolu, who was following behind him, stroked the elf ball at her waist with her right hand, stepped forward and comforted her: "Professor Kong, I don't think Phoenix King cares about these red tapes. I'm afraid what it pursues is not the same as the Fire Worship Sect." It doesn't matter much."

"Really? Why do you think so?" Professor Kong turned his head in surprise and looked at this young girl trainer who was too young.

Xiaolu was momentarily at a loss for words.

She couldn't say that listening to Yanli blowing water every day, she felt that it didn't care about the Chonghuo Sect at all.

"Haw~"

'Bobo' stopped on her shoulder and chirped a few times.

After a pause, Xiaolu said with a smile: "Although I don't know how many years, but the Fire Cult has forgotten the ceremonies, forgotten the classics, and lost the rainbow feather. I'm afraid they don't know how many centuries they haven't really seen it." Feng Wang, right? Isn't this the best proof that Feng Wang doesn't care?"

"There is a reason why the Fire Cult has become what it is now," Professor Kong lowered his voice, "The alliance does not want a pure sect to emerge. There have been internal struggles and disagreements in the history of the sect, and in the end the reformists defeated the retrograde sects. "

"Is that so?" Xiaolu was stunned. When it comes to history, she must not know as much as this professor.

After chatting for a while, Professor Kong seemed to be feeling much better. He took a deep breath and exhaled, "But what you said is also reasonable. After all, the Phoenix King has not appeared for nearly 400 years. I am afraid it is because of what he thinks the Chonghuo Sect has become." , it doesn’t matter at all. Let’s go, let’s get a seat on the bus.”

400 years?
Su Qian tilted his head, thinking about it.

Could it be that Yanli died 400 years ago in his last life?
Doesn't the fire of nirvana cook an elf egg instantly, but does it need to be cooked slowly?

Not long after, 6 buses left Chonghuo Sect Headquarters one by one, drove onto the highway, and headed eastward to Baiyin Mountain in Yanmo City, which is nearly 370 kilometers away.

At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the buses arrived at Baiyin Town at the foot of Baiyin Mountain. This is the last stop before starting to climb Baiyin Mountain, and after that is the barren and inhabited mountains.

There are already two rangers from the Wild Elf Patrol Bureau of Yanmo City waiting here. They are the result of communication and coordination between the Fire Cult and the Elf Center of Yanmo City. They are both guides and supervisors.

More than 100 people crowded the two small hotels in the town to the brim.

There was really no spare room, so Xiaolu had to make do with three other female believers.

Su Qian, who thought he was unlucky, could only take Yanli's elf ball and run into the wild to feed it for dinner.

When he came back at night, Su Qian heard from Xiaolu that Professor Kong had another big quarrel with the senior officials of Chonghuo Sect.

Because according to the records in the classics, believers in ancient times stayed overnight in Baiyin Mountain, and then started climbing the mountain before dawn the next day, so as to reach the location of the ceremony at sunrise.

It is obviously impossible to do this if you stay overnight in Baiyin Town.

According to the plan made by the high-level officials of Chonghuojiao, they will start at 6 a.m. tomorrow and climb the mountain for about 7 hours to arrive at the suspected festival venue given by the two rangers.

The ceremony is held for about two hours.

The speed of going down the mountain can be faster, so that you can barely return to Baiyin Town before sunset.

The whole plan is full of perfunctory and show-offs. It is just a shell of an ancient ritual ceremony, but the core is just a material for publicity.

According to this plan, most of Professor Kong's purpose of hiring Xiaolu, the danger of sleeping in the wild and walking at night, suddenly disappeared.

It made Xiaolu feel a little guilty.

Su Qian didn't take it seriously.

Professor Kong's plan is too idealistic ascetic monk-style sacrifice. In modern society, how many people are willing to suffer that pain deliberately?
And in ancient times, this Baiyin Town probably didn't even exist. The devout believers from 600 years ago slept here, okay?

It's almost December now, and I'm not afraid of freezing to death when I go camping in the undeveloped mountains.

In this matter, Su Qian supported the plan formulated by Chonghuojiao.

On the morning of November 11th, when the sky was getting bright, the members of the Huo Cult set off.

Ceremony crowds lined up neatly, wearing the same white robes, flames of various colors danced between the sleeves, and whispered prayers and hymns of praise merged into a melodious ocean.

All kinds of flags and prayer flags fluttered in the wind, and the statue of Phoenix King was lifted up in the procession, facing the rising sun, spreading its wings to fly.

All of this seems to have returned to the time when Feng Wang lived in Tianqing Mountain 600 years ago.

The slight difference is that this time, apart from a cameraman following the whole process, the security guards are no longer followers of the Fire Cult, but hired private detectives.

Walking at the forefront and leading the way, the two rangers in red and black ranger uniforms silently demonstrated the changes of the times.

Su Qian, who was in the form of a sculpture, stood on the branch, and looked at Jin Yan Sikong Xin who was walking in the middle of the team with a cane. The disciple behind him was holding an exquisite wooden box in his hand.

Su Qian knew that it contained the iridescent feather that he had seen once in the Bell Tower.

His gaze gradually shifted to Xiaolu who was walking behind the team. Feng Wang Yanli was hiding in the elf ball on her belt, silently watching and listening to this ceremony that spanned time and space.

"Hey, if Yan Li still can't remember anything, then there's really nothing I can do."
