Is there any connection between the Giant Spirit Clan and the Witch Clan? Or is the Giant Spirit Clan the Witch Clan? Questions arose in Chen Dasheng's mind, but it was a pity that he had too little inheritance memory to answer his questions.
Immediately afterwards, Xiong Xiaoyu enthusiastically told Chen Dasheng about the ancient legends she had heard. Chen Dasheng was still very interested in these ancient legends, or in other words, he was interested in the Wu Clan mentioned by Xiong Xiaoyu.
interested.
Listening to Xiong Xiaoyu's story, Chen Dasheng felt more and more that the Giant Spirit Clan was related to the Wu Clan. In the inherited memory, the Giant Spirit Clan had the power to create the world. Xiong Xiaoyu also described the Wu Clan as being tall and powerful. Chen Dasheng
There is an intuition that if what Xiong Xiaoyu said is not just a legend, then the blood of the giant spirit clan in his body must be inextricably linked to this ancient witch clan.
Chen Dasheng couldn't tell what the specific connection was. After all, his bloodline was thin and he had very few inherited memories. Everything would have to be explored slowly in the future.
"Xiaoyu, who is the Panwang God you are talking about?" Chen Dasheng asked.
Xiong Xiaoyu said, "Panwang God is our first god. He created our world. Our village holds a Panwang Festival every year to worship Panwang God."
"Pan King? Maybe it's Pangu!"
Chen Dasheng thought about it. In Han culture, there is also a great god who split the sky and the earth and created the world. That is Pangu. Maybe he is the same person as the King Pangu mentioned by Xiong Xiaoyu!
Chen Dasheng didn't know much about the culture of these ethnic minorities. What's more, Xiongjiazhai was still an ancient Miao village, so there were even more things Chen Dasheng didn't know.

During the conversation with Xiong Xiaoyu, the sun slowly climbed into the sky above our heads. It was almost noon. The singing in the ancestral hall slowly stopped. The group of aunts finally stopped singing and dancing and started singing again.
People lined up in the ancestral hall, and the apprenticeship ceremony came to an end.
Grandma Xiong looked at Han Ruoxue who was kneeling in front of her and said, "Ruoxue. From now on, you will be my third disciple!"
"Ruoxue pays homage to Master!" Han Ruoxue kowtowed respectfully to Grandma Xiong. Next to her, Apo brought a cup of tea. Han Ruoxue took it, raised it over her head, and handed it to Grandma Xiong, "Master, please have some tea!"
Grandma Xiong nodded with satisfaction. She took the tea handed over by Han Ruoxue, took a sip and said, "The Celestial Silkworm Gu in your body cannot be delayed. It needs to be suppressed in time. Starting from tomorrow, follow me in seclusion and practice."
"
"Yes, Master!" Han Ruoxue responded respectfully.
Grandma Xiong said, "Now that you have joined us, from now on, you are a member of my Xiong family village. Just like them, call me Grandma. That sounds easier to you."
"Yes!" Han Ruoxue said.
Grandma Xiong helped Han Ruoxue up. Han Ruoxue stumbled and almost fell. She knelt for a whole morning and her legs were already numb. Grandma Xiong took Han Ruoxue's hand and said to everyone, "Everyone is tired, go back and rest."
"
After singing and dancing all morning, no one was tired. The ceremony was completed. Everyone bowed to the statue of Houtu and left the ancestral hall.
Seeing Granny Xiong and Han Ruoxue coming out, Chen Dasheng hurriedly stood up from the stone steps, "Senior, are you done?"
Grandma Xiong nodded slightly, with a smile on her face. She turned to look at Han Ruoxue beside her and said, "Starting from tomorrow, I will be in seclusion for a month to teach Ruoxue the inner secrets to suppress the Celestial Silkworm Gu in her body. What do you have to say?
Just say it quickly."
After saying that, Grandma Xiong took Apo, Gillian and Xiaoyu Xiaohu away, leaving Chen Dasheng and Han Ruoxue alone.
They will be in seclusion tomorrow, which means they will no longer be able to see each other starting tomorrow. Although Chen Dasheng is reluctant to part with it, the poison on Han Ruoxue is serious, and of course it is better to treat it as soon as possible.
The two looked at each other for a while. Han Ruoxue rubbed her knees and said softly, "I have been kneeling all morning and my legs are numb."
Chen Dasheng smiled, knowing what Han Ruoxue meant, and stepped forward to carry her on his back, "Are you hungry?"
“A little hungry!”
Han Ruoxue lay next to Chen Dasheng's ear, her body tightly pressed against Chen Dasheng's. Tomorrow she would be in retreat, which meant that Chen Dasheng would also leave. She was reluctant to let go. Both of them instinctively didn't want to bring up that topic. There were some things.
It's fine if we have a clear understanding of each other, but if we break it, it will only add to the sadness.
"Then let's go find something to eat!"
Chen Dasheng smiled brightly, hugged Han Ruoxue's hips, and strode out quickly.
——
Xiongjiazhai, outside the valley.
"Brother Chen, when will you come again?"
Han Ruoxue went into seclusion with Grandma Xiong and would not be able to come out until a month later. Chen Dasheng could not wait in this cottage for a month. He still had his own things to do. Therefore, after Han Ruoxue went into seclusion, Chen Dasheng also left and hurried
The only one who came to see me off was Xiong Xiaoyu.
The stream flowed loudly, as if playing a beautiful farewell song. Chen Dasheng stood by the stream, looking at the graceful Xiong Xiaoyu in front of him, with a smile on his lips, "I will come whenever I have time.
Xiaoyu, remember what you promised Brother Chen!"
Xiong Xiaoyu nodded, "Don't worry, I will take good care of Sister Ruoxue."
Chen Dasheng smiled and said, "If you are free, you can also go to Shuzhong to find me. Then Brother Chen can accompany you to play everywhere!"
Hearing this, Xiong Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly lit up, but then became gloomy again, "I would like to go out, but grandma probably won't agree."
"Then when I come next time, I will bring you more good things from outside!" Chen Dasheng smiled sarcastically. Xiongjiazhai is hidden in the mountains. I am afraid that many people in the village have never walked out of this mountain in their lives, and Chen Dasheng doesn't know either.
Should you envy them or pity them?
Everyone has their own life. It is peaceful and peaceful here. Compared to the bustling city outside with bustling traffic, maybe they prefer this kind of life without fighting against the world.
When Xiong Xiaoyu heard that Chen Dasheng was going to bring something to him, his mood suddenly improved a lot. Chen Dasheng said, "Go back quickly, there is no need to send it to me."
Xiong Xiaoyu shook his head, "It doesn't matter, I'll watch you go, and I'll go back when I can't see you anymore."
Chen Dasheng smiled helplessly, "Brother Chen, I'll take my leave and come back later when I have time."
"Yes!" Xiong Xiaoyu nodded and said, "Brother Chen, be careful on the road."
…
Under the bright sunshine, Chen Dasheng set foot on the road out of the mountain. After walking for a while, Chen Dasheng looked back and saw that Xiong Xiaoyu was still standing by the creek, stretching his neck and waving his arms to say goodbye to him.
The sun shone on Xiong Xiaoyu's body, and in a daze, Chen Dasheng seemed to see Nangong Zixuan again. Looking at it from a distance, Xiong Xiaoyu and Nangong Zixuan looked very similar.
"Xiaoyu and Zixuan look so similar, I must ask my uncle after I go back!" Chen Dasheng had a faint smile on his lips, waved to Xiong Xiaoyu from a distance, turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.
between.
——
Seeing Chen Dasheng's figure disappear, Xiong Xiaoyu's face showed a trace of sadness. Although they only got along with each other for just two days, Chen Dasheng still left a very majestic impression in her heart. He had great martial arts skills and had even saved a life.
After Chen Dasheng took away her life, she suddenly felt a little empty in her heart.
"Sister Xiaoyu, have Brother Chen left?" Xiaohu ran over sweating profusely with a basket of fruits, only to see Xiong Xiaoyu standing alone.
"Why did you come?" Xiong Xiaoyu came back to his senses and asked Xiong Xiaohu.
Xiong Xiaohu said, "I went to pick some fruits and wanted to bring them to Brother Chen to quench his thirst on the road!"
"Everyone is gone, how can we quench our thirst?" Xiong Xiaoyu shook his head, grabbed a fruit from the basket, and nibbled on it.
"Ah, then wasn't my work in vain?" Xiong Xiaohu immediately grimaced and looked towards the mountain pass. There was no one there for a long time. He didn't know how long Chen Dasheng had been away. Anyway, he couldn't catch up even if he wanted to.
.
"Let's go, what are you looking for?" Xiong Xiaoyu called Xiong Xiaohu, gnawing on the fruit and walking towards the village.
Xiong Xiaohu looked at the mountain pass, then at the basket in his hand, smiled bitterly, turned around and caught up with Xiong Xiaoyu.
