Lanshan Snow

——Birihuqi's power is hidden deep in his heart, and the dragons of Teng and Tal do not show his shadow, but the sound of his roar makes the stone tremble.

——You must learn to be merciful before you can hold a sharp knife.

……

The pale gold scriptures coil forward like thorns, which are the "Longevity Sutra" handed down from generation to generation in Xueyuan, and they interweave a dazzling space.Every verse is a test of Thule... Mercy, justice, compassion, sacrifice... The testers who walk in ignore them.

He paid a high price for this.

——For the previous testers, the level that was equivalent to a reward became his punishment: the dark ruby ​​cufflinks dripped viscous liquid, and the high-necked wool shirt showed signs of being burned.

He's not very human yet... However, there is one thing that makes up for what he lacks...

His heart is incomparably dazzling.

Warm, piping hot.

..............................

Burning red charcoal, the soup in the deep-bellied copper pot was re-boiled.

The old forest guard threw some barley grains, mustard wheat, mutton shreds, grass fruits, and white garden roots into it, and boiled them into a pot of rich-flavored soup.I cut a piece of butter with a knife, roasted it softly, mixed with some pickled vegetable roots and tender pieces of minced meat, and sandwiched it into the folded oil cake.

"Okay, the annoying little bastard has finally gone where he should go." Hassanya said happily, and raised the pancake to Qiu Bodeng, "Have a piece?"

"Uh……"

The young master looked at the pancake, which was half the size of a pan, showing hesitation.

Hassanya laughed loudly, pushed a bowl of preserved fruit and milk skins in front of him, rolled up the pancake by himself, "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

This time Qiu Bodeng knew how he got his shape.

— Fortunately Arlo is not.

A brief thought flashed by, and then was angrily dismissed by Qiu Bodeng himself.

Why does he want this!

"Don't worry, that kid is fine." Hassanya comforted him when he saw him looking at the statue.

"I didn't..." the young master protested.

"At most, it's just serious injuries, and I can't die."

"..." The young master pursed his lips unhappily, grabbed an unlucky dried fruit, and rubbed it back and forth.

"In the past, when someone was about to die, Shenshu would draw some strength to help him breathe." Hasanya added.

"Didn't Shenshu really approve of him?" The young master blurted out. As soon as the words came out, he realized that he had been fooled, and changed the subject abruptly, "He used to live here?"

"He? Live here?" The old forest guard snorted, "Then do I want this house?"

"You look familiar..." Qiu Bodeng was a little confused.

At first, he thought that the parents of the Thule wizard lived in the tree house, but as soon as the old forest guard came out, he overturned this guess.Later, I felt that Hassanya might be the master of the Thule wizard...but judging from the attitude of the Thule wizard, it seemed that it was not the case.

"He used to stay in Harvey Balinghai, and he will come over after a while, and he will enter Duringuao." Hasanya shrugged, "I beat them all back."

Only then did Qiu Bodeng suddenly realize.

No wonder Wizard Thule placed him in the center of the broad platform in advance when he brought him to the tree house. It turned out that it was normal to smash the door with a knife.

"I will bring you to meet me," Hassanya added some green and white salt to the soup, "I'm quite surprised..." Hassanya scratched his head, "I thought he came to break into the sacred tree again, They're all ready to go."

Qiu Bodeng saw that the old forest guard was really surprised, and couldn't help but become more puzzled.

really weird.

Why does he seem to have no one who is more important... and...

After hesitating, Qiu Bodeng finally asked, "Where are his Pabu and Ama?"

Pabu and Aji are the names for father and mother in Tule language.

"...No." After a while of silence, Hassanya gave an unexpected answer, "He is the Manifest Shaman named after the great 'Landing'. No one can be his Pabu and Ama." Seeing Qiu Bodeng's confused expression, he explained, "A total of ten children were born with him. They were all born when Jixing passed through the Holy Snow Mountain. Once they were born, they had not yet fallen into the blanket. Take the blanket with you. After the chosen shaman is selected, the other nine children will be sent to the guardian of the holy mountain to be raised. Even the old patriarch doesn’t know who their Pabu and Ama are. .”

"The other nine will be raised by the guardian of the holy mountain. Where will Ding Shaman be?"

"Secret cave."

"Secret cave?"

"Tule gave the tribe the dark cave that is closest to life and death." Hasanya said calmly, "Every life on the snowfield must pass through the dark cave during reincarnation, from the ground to the sky, and then from the sky." Landing. Sheep give birth to cubs, birds lay eggs, and the passage they pass through is the memory of the cave and this reincarnation.”

"But is that still a dark cave? You sent a baby in?" Qiu Bodeng couldn't believe it.

"In the beginning, there will be beasts to support him. When he grows older, he will use hanging baskets to hang food. If he grows older, he will not need to put hanging baskets. He will learn to hunt in the dark by himself, and he will sense life and death by himself. He also has to climb out of the darkness by himself—this shows that he completed the reincarnation by himself. Therefore, no one is his Pabu, no one is his Amma. He is Thule's representative in the snow field."

"..."

Qiu Bodeng didn't want to talk anymore.

Now, I can understand where Wizard Thule got his habit of gnashing his teeth for everything he confirmed—he didn't grow up in a "human" way.

He is a beast fought alone in the dark.

"He is a shaman of destiny, and only in this way can his power be truly revived." Hasanya explained.

"That's not reliable!" The young master said with anger that he didn't realize, "What if a natural shaman is not a natural shaman, what if he is not? Wouldn't he be dead?!"

The copper spoon with which the old forester was stirring the soup paused.Most of his face was covered by unkempt beard and hair, showing a very complicated expression, which was fleeting.Immediately, he shrugged his shoulders: "Isn't that a mistake? You, Hu Gecuo, came out by yourself in less than 16 years. It shocked us all."

The young master almost tore the dried fruit into pieces.

"What do you mean you didn't make a mistake! What if you make a mistake!"

"No way," the old forest guard suddenly became extremely serious. "Ordinary shamans and warriors can't control Duringuao. That's what the prophecy said...the supreme Thule made the great agent land on the snow field. He is a born shaman and Boer. He needs to walk alone. Darkness, you need to cross reincarnation alone. After that, Dulinguao will be mastered by him."

The deep prophecy echoed in the tree hole, roaring back and forth, colliding.

With unquestionable meaning.

"Okay, okay, don't worry about your Hu Gecuo," Hasanya quickly returned to normal, knocking on the copper pot, "he is the destined master of Durin Guao."

"He's not me..."

The young master was powerless to defend himself.

Before the words could be uttered, there was a feeling of being gently brushed against the side of the ear, and those deep-rooted brand marks were also subtly gushing out heat... In order to ensure his own exclusive rights, Wizard Thule definitely gave him What spell.

Damn stuff.The young master thought angrily, and made up his mind that when someone came out, he had to settle accounts with him.

A soup of barley grains, mustard wheat, mutton shreds, and white garden roots was boiled, and Hassanya filled some for him.Qiu Bodeng weighed the big bowl - he preferred to call it a basin, and decided to drink a little according to his taste, and leave the rest to someone who came out and dealt with it.

"So..." He put his hand on the side of the bowl, grasping what Hassanya accidentally revealed in his words, "You say that he is the destined master of Durin Guao, but the sacred tree doesn't even recognize him!"

Hassanya scratched his head, not expecting him to be so sharp.

"That's right..."

"Why?" The young master pressed on step by step.

"Okay, okay." Hasanya shook his head helplessly, "Before him, there were shamans and warriors who tried to master Duringuao, but they all failed. After repeated attempts, the old patriarch and the previous chief witch thought that , if you want to control Duringuao, you must master the power of the underworld."

...the power of the underworld.

A pale blurred figure walked through the crowd... Wizard Thule turned his head, scolded him coldly, and left... He always thought that it was an illusion.

"It wasn't until after he came out that we discovered one thing: he did possess the power that belongs to the underworld in the records, so he doesn't have to be afraid of being swallowed up by Durin Guao. But he..." Hasanya seemed to recall something, his eyes flashed A trace of guilt, "He's a monster. He can't be the master of Durin Guao."

"So you prevented him from entering the sacred tree?" Qiu Bodeng frowned instantly.

"One year," Hassanya said, "only stopped him for one year."

The young man who was sent to the sacred forest dealt with the things he encountered in a beast-like way—he didn't know how to deal with the problem of becoming a tribe, he only knew that he should open Duringuao.Since the guardian did not allow him to step into the holy lake, he drew his sword and killed him.

The boy who grew up in the secret cave was terrifying like a monster.

Whether it is attack or strength, they are so ferocious that it is difficult for ordinary people to match.Fortunately, Hassanya is not an ordinary warrior, he is the strongest warrior of the previous term, and the patron saint tree has been endowed with stronger power for many years.In the beginning, Hasanya could easily throw him out of the holy lake by virtue of the gap in age, experience, and strength.

It's like throwing a ferocious baby beast out.

But the cub grew at a frightening rate.

Even for the guardians of the sacred tree and the holy lake, it was a very deep memory.

Either in the cold misty morning, or in the dead of twilight in the evening, the young man in a deep black robe came and left without saying a word.

Sometimes when he misses and hits hard, Hassanya tells him to stop and heal his wounds before leaving.

Not once did I look back.

Afterwards, I got used to it. Anyway, no matter how badly he was injured, he would disappear for three or four days at most, and then reappear soon. When he reappeared, it would be more terrifying than the last time.Soon, Hassanya had to start with all his strength, and in the end even had to rely on the power of the holy lake and the sacred tree.

Until the last time, even with the help of the sacred tree, there was no way to stop him.

The boy split open the wooden door of the tree house, passed the defeated obstacles, and walked towards his mission.

——The Divine Tree rejected him.

It was the first time Hassanya saw his expression.

It was an almost bewildered look.

"But it's not his fault?" The young master forcefully put down the bowl, angrily, "You tell him that his mission is to let him grow up through Duringuao, how can you think that he is... a monster !"

——The young master doesn't like the Haweiba sacred tree anymore! ! !
