Chapter 3 Nine Paths of Ape and Demon
"What?" After hearing the words of the Shihou statue, Wang Man's heart was simply overwhelming - 18,000 teenagers and 18,000 disciples all died here tragically, which was simply unimaginable.
"Why did you kill them?" Wang Man asked withstood the surprise in his heart. Because, deep down, he did not believe that this monkey was happy to kill the boy, because he had seen the monkey's supernatural powers and knew that people of his class, or with such a powerful god, would not be able to do such boring things. He must have his own reason to kill these boys.
"Because they are not qualified enough," Shihouxiang said: "I want to accept disciples to cultivate a person who is more powerful than my peak, because I want him to help me do something big that I can't accomplish, and be a person that I can't even reach. Therefore, it is difficult for ordinary people to meet my requirements."
"Whoever fails to meet the requirements will die?" Wang Man was in a palpitations.
"Yes, my test is very strict. My test is not a housewife. There is great terror between life and death. Only when a person has potential can he be judged between life and death. If I intervene in the middle, it doesn't matter if I am almost dead and still live, I can create great potential. "Then now, do you still want to worship me as your teacher?"
"This..." Wang Man hesitated in his heart - he is a normal person, and normal people will hesitate when facing such a scene - those who dare to move forward half of life and death are called bravery, those who dare to move forward for a lifetime are called bravery, and those who dare to move forward without death are called fools.
"What happens if I refuse?"
"I will destroy your memory and send it to you. You will continue your slave life..." When the monkey said this, he was silent for a moment, and the runes in the air flashed, as if he was making some calculations. "And your mother will be violent one day three months later by the slave general named Wang Zi, and then hang herself."
"This!" Hearing this news, Wang Man's eyes suddenly burst out, and hesitated for a moment. He immediately knelt on his knees again: "Please accept me as his disciple!"
Kneeling on the ground, bowing to the head three times!
"Get up!" The monkey lifted Wang Man, "Admission to a master is about life and death, you have to think about it! But since you have given me a master-apprentice ceremony, no matter whether we have a master-apprentice relationship in the end, I cannot sit idly by and watch you lose your close relatives. You can take this handbook first and practice according to the above records. Within three months, you can clear your grudges and come to me!"
After saying this, Wang Man only felt a talisman seal hitting his forehead in the air, and then another fog rose under his feet. He floated up again in the clouds and mist, and then jumped out of the cave that was thousands of feet deep.
The outside of the cave was no longer hot, and the mountains after the rain were filled with a cool feeling. After flying out, Wang Man stepped between the cool muddy rain, and felt that everything just now was like a dream.
"Squeak, squeak!" A crisp roar awakened Wang Man who was in a daze-it turned out that the little black monkey had been waiting here.
"Thank you for bringing me here!" Seeing the anxious look on the little black monkey's face, Wang Man smiled at him, walked forward and touched its little head. Then he left here with a complicated mood and walked towards the tribe.
...
It was noon the next day when he woke up. Wang Man, who stood up, found that his mother was still burning charcoal next to him.
"Where did you run last night? How did the injuries on your face and chest heal?" Seeing Wang Man wake up, Wang Qing showed a little concern on his face. He ran out after his son was injured yesterday, and he didn't run back until the early morning. Then he fell head-on on the ground and fell asleep, making her feel that she couldn't let go of her heart.
"I don't know what happened yesterday. Anyway, it's not a bad thing! Mom, don't ask." Some things can't be said even by both parents. After Wang Man stood up, he sighed and walked out of the door with a hatchet: "I won't let you be bullied again in the future!"
After saying this, Wang Man walked out.
Open the door and walked out of the woodshed. Outside the woodshed door was the martial arts training ground. Wang Man held the hatchet and looked at the warriors and boys who were fighting in the martial arts training ground from afar, with a sigh on his face - after all, he was once one of them, and he was once proud of being a warrior in a tribe.
"Manzi!" While Wang Man was stunned, several teenagers who were about the same age as him patted him from behind. They were some of his former playmates.
"Fatty, Shi Tou, Wang Lin, don't you need to practice martial arts?" The boys behind him were his younger brothers before, but this year, their identities have been completely altered.
"Today is the day for selection of the inner palace. Anyone over seven years old can go to the inner palace for a test. It is said that a very good qualification will be selected into the inner palace of the Wang clan, so everyone went there." Shi Tou was a sturdy little boy with yellow hair cut and a innocent smile on his face.
"I hope I can choose it, so that I can become a Qi Refiner, and the sword energy is ubiquitous..." The fat man also showed a look of expectation in his eyes.
"Manzi, we're leaving first, you can chop wood!" Finally, Wang Lin patted Wang Man's shoulder coldly, and then left with the two little guys.
The world is cold and the tea is cold when people leave. Wang Lin, who used to be the most obsessed with himself, is now the coldest one. However, Wang Man, who was a man for two lifetimes, naturally would not be angry with a child. After watching a few of his former companions leave, he watched him go to Baimo Mountain with his mother behind him.
The slave had no time. Wang Man should have chopped wood when he came to the forest, but when he entered the forest with a hatchet, he had no intention of chopping wood at all. Instead, he closed his eyes and looked inward, looking at the talisman that the stone monkey had given him yesterday - this talisman was engraved in his mind, and when he wanted to see it, it seemed to be in front of him.
He knew that this talisman was the only opportunity to change his mother's fate, and it was also the opportunity for him to become one of 100,000 members of the bones in some time in the future - but Wang Man was born to be a person with a firm personality and would never repent for what he decided.
Thinking of "Mother's Death" Wang Man took a deep breath and silently opened the talisman seal.
"The Prologue of "Nine Ways of Apes and Demons" - The Chapter on Body Shaping and Refining Essence."
Wang Man just closed his eyes and looked at the chapter of the talisman seal. The dark world shone brightly. An ancient book appeared in the dark space. Then a vivid monkey appeared next to the "book". The monkey was very close to Wang Man's face. When he came out, he smiled and said to him: "Don't be afraid, I am the soul of the book, and I will explain the questions in the book to you."
"Yeah." Nodded. Wang Man was no longer surprised by this kind of thing. He continued to look through the book "Nine Apes and Demons" and opened the first page of the book. What he saw was a summary discourse similar to the general outline - "All the basic cultivation techniques of heaven and earth are summed up in nothing more than eight words: refining essence into qi, refining qi into gods."
"Uh, refining essence into qi?" Wang Man had practiced his body with his father before, and as a high-level beast-headed warrior in the tribe, his father had taught many theories after all - in the tribes of the wild world, the cultivation realm was very rough - only innate and acquired.
Innately, one is a qi training man, and one is an ordinary person - whether the elderly, weak, sick, or the elite of the tribe, they are all acquired people.
In fact, the so-called acquired is the stage of physical exercise. As long as the body does not have innate true energy, it is acquired. However, the elite tribes are obviously much stronger than women, children, so in order to distinguish the differences between ordinary people, soldiers usually tattoo the most representative beasts they have hunted on themselves to show their courage.
There are no idle people in the tribe. After the boys are 14 years old, they will go to the mountains to hunt animals. After the hunt is completed, they will get their first tattoo totem to show their adulthood. Then, when they are stronger, if they can hunt stronger creatures alone, they will get certificates from the tribe. You can find tattoo elders to exchange for more powerful totems. Of course, if you have to use a pheasant rabbit or something to tattoo, it will only add to ridicule.
Therefore, it is actually difficult for acquired people to tell who is more powerful - some people are strong, some people have high combat skills, and among the lower-class people in most tribes, there are a few noble things like "kung craft". Therefore, the beast head on the body is a symbol of their own identity.
Wang Man still remembered that his father had a tiger's head on his chest - and the one named Wang Zi was wrapped around his naked arms, which was a giant python.
