Chapter Eighteen
"There are three left in the entire Jin clan, or are there three left in your tribe?" Wu Dongfang asked.
Mingyue opened her cradle and looked at the babies inside, "Only three survived in the whole clan, all of them are in our tribe."
"Why is this coincidental?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"Because our tribe is the most remote, the people they sent were eager to do something and did not conduct detailed observations." Mingyue said.
Wu Dongfang nodded and did not ask again.
After passing through two streets, three people, to be precise, even the children in the cradle were four, they came to the gate of a courtyard. This was the only building with a yard in the city, covering a wide area, the size of a football field, and there were three rows of independent houses inside, each house was not big.
After entering the yard, Mingyue walked west, "This is where the wizard lives, and we will stay here tonight."
"It seems that there are not many people living here." Wu Dongfang said, three rows of houses, five in one row, and a total of fifteen small houses, but now only two houses here have bright light.
"We don't usually live here." Mingyue walked to the door of a house in the southwest corner and pushed open the door and walked in.
The room is more than twenty square meters and is very empty inside. There is a bamboo bed near the window, with simple bedding on it and a square table in the middle.
"People often clean here?" Wu Dongfang looked at the room. The south was very humid and the room that was not inhabited was prone to mold smell, but there was no place, and there was no dust on the ground.
"Yes." Ming Yue took out the fire twister and lit the oil lamp. The so-called oil lamp is a small pottery bowl containing some kind of oil and plus the lamp twist.
"We will stay here tonight. You guys settle down first. I'll ask which celestial master will come tomorrow." Ming Yue turned around and went out.
After Mingyue left, the woman holding the child came over and said to Wu Dongfang with a smile, "Congratulations."
"If you know the witch's name, do you have to marry her?" Wu Dongfang took off his meal.
"Don't you like us wizards?" the woman was surprised.
"I'll just ask, put the child down quickly." Wu Dongfang pointed to the bed.
I was walking very urgently today. The woman was already exhausted, but she did not put the child on the bed, but sat in the corner with the child in her arms. Wu Dongfang advised her that the bed was a wizard and she could not sleep.
Half an hour later, Mingyue came back and brought back a can of rice porridge.
"Is there any good news?" Wu Dongfang asked. Ming Yue's tone and actions after she came back showed that she was in a better mood than when she left.
"It's nothing, go to bed early. Tianshi will come tomorrow morning." Mingyue gave the bed to the woman with a panic on her face, and moved a chair to the west side of the door.
"How many heavenly masters are there in the Jin clan?" Wu Dongfang leaned over.
"Three." Mingyue said casually.
"Are you familiar with the Tianshi Master who will come tomorrow?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"Familiar, what do you want to do?" Mingyue asked back.
"Can you let him test me?" Wu Dongfang smiled.
"What do you want to do?" Mingyue smiled.
"I want to see if I can learn magic." Wu Dongfang said, the red fireworks dance of the Fire Clan's Heavenly Master always lingers in his mind.
"Okay, I'll talk to him tomorrow." Mingyue agreed happily.
Wu Dongfang nodded happily. He didn't have much hope, but it would be better to try it. It would be great if he could learn magic. If he couldn't learn it, he would give up completely.
I had enough sleep during the day and started to move at night. The door was closed and it couldn't get out. I hummed for a while and started looking for things to do, and gnawed the legs of the bed in the room.
At three or four o'clock in the morning, Wu Dongfang was awakened by the messy voices from outside the yard. After waking up, he found that Ming Yue had already gotten up and was sitting by the bed to comb his hair.
"Why don't you light the light?" Wu Dongfang was startled by Mingyue. It was scary to see a woman comb her hair in a dark and tiring way, not to mention that this woman was wearing a mask.
"There is water at the door, so you can wash it. Today, everyone in the tribe will come over. You have to show up with the bear king." Mingyue continued to comb her hair.
"Then you don't have to come here so early." Wu Dongfang yawned.
Mingyue stood up and lit the oil lamp, walked over and handed his wooden comb to Wu Dongfang, "tied up his hair, shave off his beard, and then changed his clothes."
"What they want to see is a rice bucket, not me." Wu Dongfang waved his hand and didn't answer the other party's wooden comb.
"You don't want to use my comb?" Mingyue was a little unhappy.
When Wu Dongfang heard this, he hurriedly picked up the wooden comb. In fact, Ming Yue was right. He was indeed unwilling to use Ming Yue's comb. He felt that something happened to him and Ming Yue was a little sudden. He was only in a good impression of Ming Yue and had not yet decided whether to marry Ming Yue.
His hair is too short to tie up. His beard can be shaved off with a dagger. He only has this outfit, so if he doesn't have to change it, just sour.
The people outside the yard gathered more and more, and the voices were getting louder and louder. At seven o'clock in the morning, Mingyue took Wu Dongfang out to the yard with her child in her arms. There was a wide stone road in the middle of the yard. There were six people standing on the stone road, all of them were wizards holding copper rods. The four standing in front were relatively old, all of them were male wizards. One behind was the wizard who greeted Mingyue yesterday, and the other was the male wizard who was scratched by a rice bucket. Both of them were holding a child in their arms.
Mingyue stood behind them with the child in her arms. Wu Dongfang couldn't find his place, so he sat on a stone pier beside the road with a rice bucket in his arms.
"Get up, that's the horse's body." Ming Yue whispered.
At this time, the gate of the yard was open, and many people were crowded at the door and looked inside. People who could not squeeze into the door were surrounded by the wall of the yard, stepping on stones and revealing their heads. The houses around the yard were also filled with people and trees.
The scratched wizard smiled and waved to Mingyue. Mingyue pretended not to see him and ignored him.
Mingyue let the male villagers go out for free last night. They must have leaked the news, one to ten, ten to hundreds. Many people know that Wu Dongfang was holding the mount of the next White Tiger Heavenly Master of the Golden Clan. Before the Heavenly Master arrived, the rice bucket became the focus of their onlookers.
All the tribesmen knew that Fanzhu was a Pixiu, but they didn't seem to be surprised, because in their opinion, both bears and Pixiu were bears, and Pixiu was more fierce than bears.
"When will the Heavenly Master come?" Wu Dongfang asked in a low voice to Mingyue.
Mingyue shook her head and waved her hand to signal him not to talk nonsense.
Wu Dongfang and others were bored and turned their attention to the four wizards standing in front. The youngest of these four wizards was almost forty, and the old one should be over fifty. The robe they wore was the same as the three young wizards behind, but the color was blue. The top of the copper rod they held was not a cow's head, but a bent sheep's head, which may also be a symbol of their mage's status.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the sun emerged from the east. At the same time, a rumbling thunder came from the east sky. When the thunder came, everyone in the city began to cheer.
Previously, Wu Dongfang had heard Ming Yue say that the body movement of the Jin clan's heavenly master was like thunder and thunder. When he moved quickly, he would make thunder sounds. There was a thunder sound in the east sky that showed that the heavenly master in charge of the test was about to arrive.
Curious, Wu Dongfang turned his head to look at Dongfang Sky, but he did not see anyone in the sky. This shows that although the Jin clan's body movements were very fast, they could not run faster than the sound like a supersonic plane. The sound came first, and the person was still behind.
The thunder from the east became louder and louder, and not long after, a small black dot appeared in the air in the east.
"This kind of spell is good, but the sound is too loud and it is not suitable for sneak attacks." Wu Dongfang said with a lip voice.
Ming Yue turned his head when he heard the sound, and Wu Dongfang hurriedly moved his gaze back to the air.
As the distance shortens, the small black dots gradually grow larger, and the human figure can be vaguely seen.
No matter how short the distance is, you can see that the robe that person is wearing is not black, but very dark purple.
When the Heavenly Master arrived above the tribal city, the thunder gradually disappeared. At this time, you can see that the Heavenly Master was an old man in his sixties or seventies, stepping on a copper rod with his hands behind his back.
Although the thunder disappeared, the Tianshi still moved in the air, but the speed was much slower than before. At this time, Wu Dongfang suddenly realized that the wind and clouds and thunder were only making thunder when they were moving forward at full speed, and the thunder disappeared as soon as the speed slowed down.
The Tianshi began to slowly land above the courtyard. This scene surprised Wu Dongfang. He couldn't figure out how the other party offset the gravity. The only possibility was that they discovered a certain potential of their own through practice. With the development of science and technology, humans are increasingly leveraging tools and equipment, and instead neglecting the discovery and utilization of their own potential.
At this time, he saw clearly the figure and appearance of the Heavenly Master. The Heavenly Master was not very tall, maybe only a little over 1.7 meters, with a melon-shaped face, a thin face, and a goatee beard under his jaw. He looked very majestic. Although he was old, it was not difficult to see that he was a handsome man when he was young. The bronze stick under the foot of the Heavenly Master was stepping on was a hideous beast head. This shape made him feel familiar. When he thought about it carefully, this beast head often appeared on ancient bronze ware, and it should be Taotie.
When four or five meters above the ground, the Tianshi took back his bronze rod and floated to the ground.
When he stood still, all the wizards knelt down on one knee with their bronze sticks in their hands, "Welcome the Heavenly Master."
This sentence is Wu Dongfang's understanding. In fact, these wizards say very long and have a tone, "Dear Heavenly Master, please accept our humble welcome and sincere respect."
The Tianshi did not respond, but just nodded slowly.
"What a big air." Wu Dongfang thought to himself.
The wizards and mages nodded when they saw the celestial master and stood up straight.
Before this, they might have been through the air, without any nonsense or scenes. After they got up, the four mages in front lined up, and the witch in the front walked over with the child in her arms.
The celestial master took the swaddle clothes handed by the witch with both hands, stretched out his right palm and put it on the child's forehead, and closed his eyes at the same time.
A few seconds later, the Tianshi opened his eyes, shook his head and returned the swaddle to the witch who was waiting nervously.
The wizard retreated in frustration, and the scratched wizard walked over, but the celestial master still shook his head after the test.
Mingyue was the last one to hold the child forward, and the Tianshi's palm stayed on the child's forehead for longer than the first two.
After three minutes, the Tianshi finally opened his eyes.
There was a silence inside and outside the courtyard, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.
After a brief silence, the Tianshi nodded slowly.
