Chapter 301: Witchcraft
Now that Fire Rock has been restored, the whole person seems to be fine, but it seems that the experience in that mysterious tree cave is really a fantasy dream.
However, on the next journey, Huoyan apparently seemed to have thoughts, often frowning, as if carefully thinking about something, from time to time he looked at Lu Chen again, looking a little hesitant.
Lu Chen looked at his expression in his eyes, and was a little more careful in his heart. However, after all, he and Huoyan were still two people of different races. Even if Huoyan once vowed hard, Lu Chen did not really It is completely believed in him.
The ancient tree hole brought by that mysterious seed is really too magical. Anyone in the world who sees it will inevitably develop a sorrowful heart, not to mention that this thing is inextricably related to the black fire tribe. If Huoyan had any thoughts on this, it would not seem strange.
However, as long as Huoyan didn't show anything, Lu Chen would just as if he hadn't seen it. Otherwise, he really wanted to question this, for fear of the possibility of tearing his face immediately.
Lu Chen pretends to be deaf and dumb, but it does not mean that Huoyan is the same. Therefore, after the two walked silently for a while, watching the dusk will be temporary, Huoyan suddenly turned around to face Lu Chen, as if it was down The same determination, said: "Lu Chen, wait a minute, I have something to tell you."
Lu Chen sighed in his heart, nodded and stood still, but at the same time, his palm swayed behind the place where Fire Rock could not see, and A Tu, who was standing behind him, saw it, and then slowly walked to Lu Beside Dust.
In the previous journey, Lu Chen and Huo Yan tried to kill a monster living in the wasteland. The two people and A Tu shared their food. In total, A Tu ate more than the two of them together. More, now it can be regarded as a state of "satisfaction".
However, it is obvious that for this black wolf, the friendship between Atu and Lu Chen still cannot be shaken, so Atu stands on the side of Lu Chen without hesitation, growling softly and slowly revealing the whiteness. Fangs.
Huoyan did not seem to notice any abnormalities in Atu. He still looked at Lu Chen, and hesitated for a moment, and said, "Lu Chen, there is something on my side. Since you have been identified as the priest of our black fire tribe, It should be entrusted to you. "
Then, he found an animal skin from his arms and handed it to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen stumbled a little, but it was unexpected, but he calmed down quickly, nodded and picked up the animal skin, and at the same time kicked Atu with his foot.
A Tu, who was grinning and grinning to be fierce, suddenly stagnated, then looked at Lu Chen innocently, groaned in his mouth, lay on his stomach, lay on the side of the ground, and lazily ignored these complex and changeable humans. .
Naturally, Lu Chen didn't care about the goods. He took a look at the animal skin in his hand, but felt that the tentacles were a little rough, and he felt very thick. At the same time, the fur color was dark and black. Fur, can't help but ask a little strangely: "What's this?"
Huoyan sighed, looking a bit bitter on her face, and said, "This is a witchcraft scroll that has been passed down from generation to generation by our black fire tribe ancestors. It records several types of shamans or priests who are only our black fire tribe. To use sorcery. "
Having said that, he paused, and seemed to hesitate, then said, "This thing has been damaged, and now it can only be regarded as a scrap."
Lu Chen was startled, but hesitated for a moment but didn't open the animal skin immediately, but stared at Fire Rock, saying: "I haven't been to the Vulcan altar, and I haven't really got your Vulcan's recognition. This skin For your tribe, the scroll must be an extremely precious treasure, so you can give it to me in peace? "
Huoyan silent for a moment, and said, "I did have a little wary of you before, so I hid this scroll and didn't give it to you. But the incident of wolves made me want to understand. "
In this vast southern Xinjiang wasteland, power is the most important thing, both for large and small tribes and for individual barbarian warriors.
Weak power will eventually be destroyed, and it will be difficult to survive in this harsh wasteland.
The priest is one of the most powerful characters in the tribe. Previously, because Fire Rock concealed this secret, when the wolf pack suddenly appeared, if Lu Chen had not possessed the mysterious and weird tree cave hiding, probably already at this moment. The bones are gone.
As for other miscellaneous thoughts, as long as the will of Vulcan is determined, there is probably no need to be seriously attached to it, these are what Fire Rock wants to say at this moment.
"But, I am a personal clan, and I have not been recognized by Vulcan. Is this really okay?" Lu Chen asked again.
Huoyan shook her head and said, "If I gave you this thing before, maybe you have learned a little bit about the witch surgery described above, and we won't have no fight against the wolves."
Lu Chen froze for a moment, then waved the leather in his hand, and some didn't quite believe the authentic way: "The witchcraft above is so powerful?"
Huoyan thought about it and seemed not sure, saying: "Our tribe hasn't seen a priest for a long time, so what is the power of this witchcraft. Now we don't know, but the word of mouth among the tribe is Praise the ancestors' former glory and strength, and presumably this witchcraft is also powerful. "
Lu Chen was dubious and hesitated for a moment, and he couldn't help but wonder, "I watched it?"
Huoyan nodded and said, "You learn, as long as you can learn the witchcraft above, I think our tribe may be really reviving."
"You really think so far." Lu Chen sighed at the ambition of the barbarian, then opened the roll.
This thick animal skin was folded several layers and tied with a string in the middle, so it took a while to untie it. Perhaps knowing the weight of this thing, Lu Chen's movements were also very careful.
As for the fire rock standing aside, he stared at Lu Chen's hand deadly.
After a while, Lu Chen finally opened the roll completely. In the dim light at dusk, the animal skin spread out in front of them, revealing the hidden things inside.
Huoyan's breathing was clearly quicker, his gaze glanced at the animal skin, and then his eyes looked at Lu Chen again, with the expectation flashing in the bottom of his eyes.
And Lu Chen also had a dignified look. He carefully looked at the handwriting on the animal skin, and there were many strange-looking portraits.
For a while, they didn't talk. It wasn't until Lu Chen's eyes completely swept from the animal skin and he raised his head again that Huoyan stepped a little excitedly and asked him, "What? Here? What is the recorded witchcraft, isn't it great? "
Lu Chen's face looked a little weird. After taking a deep breath, he looked at Huoyan, then coughed, and said, "Sorry, I don't understand!"
※※※
"Don't understand?" Huoyan paused, but didn't seem to react, repeating it suddenly.
Lu Chen said, "No," he nodded and pointed at the handwriting picture on the skin of the animal. He said, "I really don't understand. I don't know what these words and these pictures mean. Is it your own words? ? "
Huoyan's eyebrows were locked tightly, but after a moment of hesitation, she shook her head and said, "No, I have seen this animal skin before. Different."
"Ah?" Lu Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the answer he heard was actually this. Doesn't this record the witchcraft of the Blackfire tribe? Why can't even the barbarians of the blackfire tribe understand it?
What is the reason for this?
Huo Yan explained to Lu Chen: "In fact, I have asked my father about this before. Listen to my father, the text on this witchcraft scroll belongs to the shaman and the priest. Only they can see it. Understand; and most amazingly, the priests don't seem to have to study specifically. As long as they have this power, they can naturally understand these things. "
Lu Chen frowned and looked up at Huoyan. After a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "But I don't recognize it. Does this mean that I am not a priest at all?"
Huoyan was dumb, and there was a trace of pain and blankness on his face, and he murmured, "This, how is this possible ... I see that you can use the power of black fire. Is it because you are not a barbarian? ?"
Lu Chen sighed and said, "Huoyan, although I really want to return to the north, and I want to help you by the way, but in this case, let's not deceive ourselves any more."
Huoyan stood rigidly in place, looking a bit lost, like a person who had held countless beautiful hopes. Suddenly, all dreams were instantly destroyed.
Lu Chen looked a little embarrassed, but then came to his senses and scolded himself for being totally relentless recently. Even a barbarous man had sent out a sympathy trying to harden his heart, but Later, some worries began. If you really can't be the priest of the Black Fire tribe, it seems more difficult to ask Huo Yan's secret to return to the north.
After all, this product was someone who would not disclose the secrets before meeting the wolves.
Sure enough, after a while, the look on Huoyan's face began to cool down, and he reached out his hand to the landing dust, and said, "Return the animal skin to me."
Lu Chen frowned, and did not return it to him immediately, asking, "What do you mean?"
"Since you are sure that you are not the priest of our black fire tribe, I don't think I need to go to the altar of the fire god," Huoyan said.
Lu Chen nodded and said, "Okay, this is a good thing. But since that's the case, I'm not malicious to your black fire tribe, I wonder if you can tell that secret ..."
"No!" Huoyan said blandly but unquestionably.
After looking at him for a while, Lu Chen suddenly hummed, then said quietly: "You may wait, I may have another way, try it."
