017 Brilliant (Part 4)
Back in the cave, the woman glanced at me and then quickly looked away, and went for a walk with my mother. I felt much better, but I still looked unhappy.
Seeing this, my mother knocked me on the head and said: "If you don't want to starve, go and lie down on the rocks. Recover as soon as possible and leave as soon as possible. There is not much meat left. Where birds don't lay eggs, there are no animals."
catch."
Not to mention beasts, there are not even a few trees. I feel this deeply these days. I was chased by that human before and tried my best to find a place to hide.
I walked to the rock and sat down, looking at the little food left, and then turned to look at my mother: "You traveled so far and brought back just this little? It will be gone in less than a day."
"No, brother, you have been sleeping for more than ten days. When auntie showed up, she had dragged two big beasts, but she had almost eaten..." It was the little boy next to the woman who spoke, who said the last thing
At that time, he buried his head tightly.
"Have I slept for more than ten days?" I had a surprised expression on my face. I had failed to hunt before and my injuries were much more serious, and I had never slept for more than ten days in a row.
"You're lucky this time. Whether you wake up next time will be a problem." My mother had almost no expression. The more she looked like this, the more I knew the seriousness of the matter.
At this time, the little boy raised his head cautiously, looked at me and whispered: "The man who hit you has spiritual energy covering his whole body. He is already the most powerful among Ju Ling. He can break rocks with a full blow, so..."
"So my head is harder than a rock?" I sneered, lay down and stopped talking.
Damn humans!
I gritted my teeth, my mother would not lie to me, and it was all luck that I woke up this time. In other words, I had already been considered dead once, and that human race was actually more powerful than the bear race.
I can deal with the Bear Clan because they are still beasts and don’t have much wisdom. Once I encounter the Bear Clan that can transform, I will be eaten. I am too weak. On the road of cultivation, I can only stop and watch.
.
After a long time, the woman probably thought I was asleep, so she asked, "Where are you going when you leave?"
Then I heard my mother's voice, "Didn't you say there is a mountain range in the north where you can hunt? I plan to go there."
Then the woman was silent for a while and said: "You can still survive the full blow of Ju Ling. You must be a practitioner. You are his mother. You must be more proficient in practice. You can indeed go there. You are much stronger than us."
Already."
"Aren't you going?" My mother was obviously a little confused, and secretly I was the same. In my opinion, everyone who takes this road should go there.
"We won't go there," it was the boy's voice again, and I could feel the tone in it being a little urgent. He continued: "It's too dangerous for us. Grandma and I are just ordinary people. If we go there, we will die."
of."
"Then what are you doing here?" Mother asked next.
The boy replied: "Looking for something that can replace bones. Grandma often takes me to these places. I have good eyesight and can see very far. After I find it, I use it to exchange for food. This has always been the case."
As he said this, he took out a spiritual grass from the woman's pocket and ran to his mother, holding it up high and saying, "This is it. If you replace it with bones, you can eat it for two days."
Mother took it smoothly, looked at it for a few times, and then handed it back to him. At the same time, she touched his head with her hand and said with a smile: "You are much better behaved than Shuangxuan~"
"Well, this kid is always running around, and even his shadow disappears in the blink of an eye. I'm worried to death all day long."
"Really? Then he is a bit similar to me."
She actually had the nerve to say that I wanted to stand up immediately and hit her hard on the head, so she wouldn't seriously reflect on herself and think about it from her perspective! There are so many truths on weekdays, but she pretends to be confused at critical moments.
"By the way, can you tell me how to distinguish those practitioners?" This question was somewhat useful, and I pricked up my ears secretly, for fear of missing a word.
"You should know this, right? I see you are also a practitioner," the woman said.
Hearing this, my mother let out a long sigh, shook her head and said: "What kind of practitioner am I? We are ordinary people just like you. You have also seen that little boy. He doesn't understand anything and is not afraid of anything."
, I am really afraid that something will happen to him one day, please tell me, and I will tell him properly."
"Then why are you so polite? My surname is Shi. You can call me Aunt Shi. You were taking care of him a few days ago, and I haven't been able to tell you."
"I'll call you Shi Ma. Calling you Aunt Shi always feels a bit alienating. You saved Shuangxuan, and I have nothing to repay. This is all I can do."
"Hey, okay, okay..."
Aunt Shi's tone has changed. Terrible mother...
Next, I finally came to what I wanted to know most, a little bit about spiritual practice.
Cultivation is a difficult and long road, and the general manifestation of this road is the same. Through different levels of manifestation, it gradually becomes divided, that is, the words Gathering Soul and Gathering Consciousness.
Gathering spirit is to inhale the surrounding spiritual energy into one's own body, and then use it to explode powerful power. Of course, this requires talent. Not everyone can successfully sense the spiritual energy, let alone absorb it. Once the transformation is successful, the spiritual energy will come from various sources.
It brings about growth, and the most direct manifestation is something similar to white mist.
As more and more spiritual energy is inhaled, there will be more white mist in the body. When the whole body is covered with that kind of mist, it means that you can try to enter the next stage, but the possibility of failure is very high, so even if you are there
At this level, most people will still stay for two years, waiting until there is too much spiritual energy to be absorbed into the body before making a breakthrough.
If you fail, start over from the beginning; if you succeed, you will reach the sky in one step.
"Jushi has very powerful power, but I have never seen a practitioner at this stage, so I don't know how to tell them apart. I heard others say that they can easily break rocks and kill beasts that are much bigger than themselves.
, to be able to do this, the spiritual energy in the body should be quite abundant, maybe we can start from this point."
The mother looked thoughtful, and then asked: "Generally speaking, spiritual energy is in the body, right? No one is stupid enough to show his strength, just like a beast, which will not stretch out its claws except when hunting.
What should I do if so?”
Indeed, we met so many human beings along the way, but we didn’t see anyone with white mist on their body. They couldn’t be ordinary people, otherwise they would be like this woman and boy, hiding far away and not dare to go anywhere.
Go to that mountain range.
"Practitioners should be able to roughly sense the spiritual power in the other person's body. Ordinary people can't do anything about it. After all, the day they embark on this path, they are no longer human."
"There is a limit to what people can do, Auntie, what do you think?"
The boy suddenly said such a sentence in a strange tone. I didn't hear my mother's response for a long time. Could it be that I gave my stupid mother a hard time?
I opened my eyes and glanced in the direction of my mother, and when I met her eyes, I was startled and hurriedly closed my eyes and turned around.
"Well, I think you're right..."
…
…
Two days later.
My body has been able to move around normally. As long as I don't make too big movements, there will be no problem. The food was gone half a day ago, so staying here would be a dead end.
"It's time to leave."
My mother glanced at me, and of course I had nothing to say. I wished I could leave this cave full of human smell as soon as possible.
"I want to go too!" The boy suddenly jumped up and looked directly at his mother.
"No!" This sentence hit my head like thunder. I was stunned for a while before I realized it and hurriedly rejected it. I would never allow my mother to have any beast besides me, let alone a despicable human being!
"Let's go, mother!" I pulled her out with all my strength, but it was all in vain.
"You want to follow us to that mountain range?" His mother turned around, walked up to him, and slowly squatted down.
"Yeah." He nodded heavily.
"It's very dangerous. You have to starve, you may face all kinds of beasts, and you may even lose your life."
"I'm not afraid"
I knew it would be like this, the beasts were just that, now they even have to interfere in human affairs.
"My mother and I will never go back to the ancient city again. If you want to go, just find a way to come back by yourself!" This is what I said.
…
"Mom Shi, do you agree to let him go?" The mother glanced at the woman.
"Let him go. This kid has always wanted to go there and visit. I can still stop him now, but I won't be able to stop him in another two years. It will be like this sooner or later. When the time comes, let him leave alone. I will still stop him if he follows you.
Don't worry."
The eyes were clearly full of reluctance and the tone was full of helplessness. Couldn't she not see it?
"Well, I will send him back, don't worry."
…
I didn't say anything, turned around and walked out.
"Then let's go." My mother's voice came faintly from behind. I became even more angry and ran for a long distance. Finally, I squatted on the ground and couldn't help but shed tears.
