Chapter 82: Unusual behavior
“How did he lose consciousness?” Bu Deng Da Wu asked again.
At this point, I could vaguely feel the body of the Da Xing Da Wu shaking, but I could never feel the pressure of the qi field in this room. I could only feel that the Da Xing Da Wu was indeed suffering from something.
After a long period of silence, I saw that Master’s fingers were trembling slightly. That was a small movement of Master’s, a sign of his patience reaching its limit. After living with Master for so long, I still knew what this movement meant.
At this time, the intermittent voice of the Great Shaman finally came: “Ancestor… the ancestral spirit appeared… twice, because… because of this… he fainted… and fell into a coma.”
When he said this, I saw that the wooden floor in front of the Daxing Da Wu was wet with sweat, showing how much he had endured.
At this moment, I suddenly understood why the master had this little gesture. If I had fought alongside him, like Xiaobei and the others, if I had been oppressed to this extent by the elders of the sect, I would not be able to sit idly by either, right?
Fortunately, after the Great Da Xing said this, he suddenly let out a long sigh, and suddenly the whole person seemed to have collapsed. But fortunately, I didn’t feel that he was suffering.
But the next moment, Da Xing Da Wu suddenly knelt on the ground and said respectfully, “Thank you, Bu Deng Da Wu, for honing Da Xing’s soul.”
“It’s also a little punishment. You don’t know the importance of Darong to the village. Now that the ancestral spirits and he are still in the process of getting used to each other, how can you let him easily summon the ancestral spirits?” It seems that he doesn’t avoid us, and the Great Shaman of Bude directly questioned the Great Shaman of Daxing.
This statement seemed simple, but it contained a lot of information. I didn’t understand what the Budeon Shaman meant at the time. I only heard that when he was slightly punishing him, he also gave the Daxing Shaman some benefits. My impression of this Budeon Shaman became slightly better.
On the contrary, Master was even more calm. I could still feel some tension in him before, but now he was strangely relaxed. Could it be because the Great Shaman of Daxing was fine?
The Great Shaman of Daxing got up from the ground and sat down again. He seemed to want to answer the questions of the Great Shaman of Budeng, but after taking a look at me and the Master, he hesitated a little.
But the Budeen Grand Shaman didn’t care, saying, “It’s not a big secret. It’s not bad to spread the news that my ancestor’s clan can summon one of the ancestral spirits again. Although it is a hidden clan, it can’t completely avoid disputes.”
“Yes,” Da Xing Da Wu replied respectfully again, and then said, “My original intention was not to have Darong summon the ancestral spirits, but after the ancestral spirits appeared again because of Darong, Darong’s temperament became more and more unstable over time. The true essence of successful witchcraft is for humans to control spirits. I was afraid that Darong would be controlled by the spirits instead, so I deliberately tempered and polished Darong’s temperament. I wanted him to suppress his restlessness, impulsiveness, and arrogance, and be able to control the spirits with a firm spirit.”
After saying this, the Great Shaman Daxing carefully looked at the expression of the Great Shaman Budeng. Seeing that Budeng’s eyes were slightly closed and he was silent, he said carefully again: “The enemy is Yang Sheng, who has recently become very popular and has secretly united several factions. He came to my tribe to obtain the bloodline of the ancestral shaman…”
“Hmm?” When he said this, the Great Shaman of the Budeen, who had kept his eyes closed, suddenly opened them and gave a doubtful “hmm,” as if he was asking the Great Shaman of the Daxing to confirm the authenticity of the news.
“It’s true.” Da Xing Da Wu quickly added a serious remark.
“Why?” I found that among the high-level people, except for the unstable personality of Jenny, who spoke a little or a lot, the rest of the high-level people, such as Wu Tian and Bu Deng, all spoke very little. They really wouldn’t waste a word unless necessary.
“The reason is unknown. According to the information we have obtained from the secular forces, Yang Sheng has always done strange things with unclear purposes… I…” Da Xing Da Wu became a little nervous again. Perhaps Bu Deng Da Wu had put too much pressure on him, and he couldn’t even organize his words well.
But this time, the Great Shaman Budeon did not argue with the Great Shaman Daxing, but closed his eyes and thought for a while, then looked at the Great Shaman Daxing and said, “Continue to talk, just talk about Darong.”
“Yes.” The sweat on the forehead of the Da Xing Da Wu fell into his eyes, but he did not dare to wipe it off, but continued to say, “At that time, it was Yang Sheng who fought with Darong. But Yang Sheng had already talked about the terms with us before, and if our ancestors did not make things difficult for him, he would not make things difficult for us. The grudges were all settled, and it can be said that he would not easily harm Darong. Yang Sheng’s strength was unpredictable, and even I had a vague feeling that I couldn’t see through him. Under the circumstances, I wanted to use Yang Sheng to temper Darong. At least let him know that there are mountains beyond the mountains and heavens beyond the heavens, and suppress his pride and arrogance a little.
Proud and arrogant. It’s really a new word to use for Qiangzi… I don’t care what others think, but in my eyes, Qiangzi and Yang Sheng fighting that fight was really for me. I admit that this is an emotional act that overrides reason. It can be impulsive and reckless, but it can never be proud and arrogant.
In the face of this explanation from the Daxing Great Shaman, the Budeng Great Shaman did not make any comments.
This silence made Daxing Da Wu suddenly feel the pressure again, and he quickly explained, “At that time, I was making sure that Yang Sheng would not pay the price for hurting Darong! Because I discovered that Yang Sheng was a person who was good at calculating benefits…”
“It’s not a big deal to temper Darong a little. If he is tempered a little more, he will be less likely to suffer in the future. If there are no accidents, I will leave the position of the 21st generation ancestor to Darong.” The ancestor of the Bu Deng clan said these words in a flat tone.
Twenty-first generation? What did I think it was? It turns out that this is the succession of the ancestral spirits of this village? I am sure that Qiangzi is not the pure bloodline of the ancestral spirits of the eighteen villages, but to receive such a succession, I am happy for Qiangzi. Ancestral spirits, just thinking about it is a very powerful existence!
Having received the affirmation of the great shaman Bude, the great shaman Daxing was obviously relieved, but he didn’t expect Bude to become a little more serious and said, “The point is, how did the ancestral spirit appear?”
“At first, Yang Sheng probably wanted to teach Darong a lesson and cripple him. After all, the ancestral spirit had already become Darong’s summoning spirit and naturally came out to protect him. I also took the opportunity to remind Yang Sheng… and the second time…” Da Xing was a bit excited when he said this, took a deep breath, and then continued, “Darong wanted to punch Yang Sheng to death, forcibly summoning the ancestral spirit… and then he fainted.”
The Great Shaman of Daxing did not dare to hide or delay anything, and he finished telling the story from beginning to end in a concise manner.
“You mean that Darong summoned the ancestral spirits for the second time on his own initiative? And the ancestral spirits appeared?” The normally calm and collected Bodan Grand Master couldn’t help but twitch his eye corner, looking extremely serious.
“Yes, Da Xing saw it with his own eyes. And… the guests from the two villages also saw it with their own eyes.” Da Xing hurriedly explained, but the excitement in his words was about to be suppressed. I really admire him. Since he was so excited, why didn’t he show it on the way?
But from the side, it is self-evident how important Qiangzi is to this village.
This made me feel a little heavy. We took great risks, detoured, and traveled thousands of miles to Xiangxi, just to pick up Qiangzi. Although the master didn’t say why we had to pick up Qiangzi, I still remembered his words: “In this great era, everyone around me…” I felt that Qiangzi was also an indispensable character.
In this way, can we still successfully bring Qiangzi with us?
I was still thinking, but a sentence rang in my ear, as if forcibly pulling my thoughts back.
“Is that true?” the Budaen Great Shaman asked me and the Master.
In fact, it was completely impossible for the Da Xing Da Wu to lie to him, but he had to ask me and the master to verify it once. This only shows that the Da Xing Da Wu, who seemed to no longer be affected by anything, was really too concerned about this matter.
“It’s true, I saw it with my own eyes… the shadow of the ancestor spirit.” I wanted to say the shadow of the ancestor spirit, but thinking that this village worships a ferocious beast as its ancestor spirit, I thought it might be a bit bad to say it directly. I could only change my words bluntly.
If it weren’t for the words of the great shaman, I would never have thought that a village that worships a ferocious beast would be on the right path. After hearing all the truth, I might have tried every means to save Qiangzi from the “sea of suffering.”
“Can you see?” The Great Shaman Bu Deng raised his eyebrows slightly, and when he looked at me, he was quite amused.
But at this moment, Master quickly said next to me, “My young apprentice has outstanding spiritual awareness and a complicated background, so it’s normal that he can see. But I, an old man, am blind in my old age, and I only feel that a force of uncertainty has erupted from Da Rong’s body.”
It seemed a bit rude, but Master seemed to dislike the way Bugen the Great Shaman was ‘interested’ in me, so he interrupted… Even if Master didn’t say anything to me, I was sure of it.
Fortunately, the old man didn’t really argue with my master, but suddenly, he couldn’t help laughing. I could hardly imagine such intense emotions happening to the old man.
“God bless the eighteen ancestral villages of the witch! God bless the eighteen ancestral villages of the witch!” After laughing, the witch couldn’t help but repeat these words of emotion twice, and his voice echoed throughout the room.
I looked at the sleeping Qiangzi and wondered to myself, what on earth had this kid done that was so remarkable?
