Chapter 5 Firewood Summons Ancient Spirits
"Puff!"
The dark green vine sword was pulled out quickly, blood was soaring, a huge black-faced porcupine wailed, staggered to A Guang, and fell into the mud.
"Azhen, now there is enough sacrifice, we can summon the ancient spirit again!" A Guang turned around and happily waved the vine sword to Zhi Shuzhen behind him.
Zhi Shou covered his body with a sackcloth, leaning against the dead tree, sitting sickly on the rocks in the swamp, showing a helpless smile to A Guang: "A Guang, you also need resources for sword practice, don't waste it on me anymore."
"Try it again, the ancient spirit has great powers, there will always be a way!" A Guang grabbed the front leg of the black-faced porcupine and dragged it to Zhi Shouzhen. He skillfully pulled out the fangs, cut off his head, then cut open his belly, digging out the bleeding heart, and poured out shiny ore from the bamboo basket on the side, herbs stuck to the mud, and a few dried wild wolf heads and hearts piled up, and dripping them around the periphery with porcupine blood.
"Azhen, come on, it will definitely work this time!" A Guang reached out to support Huzhen.
"I'll do it myself." Zhi Shuiman grabbed the bone sword with his right hand, supported the sword tip, and barely stood up straight. Suddenly, a torn pain came from his internal organs, his legs became weak, and he fell to the ground. The dirty mud splashed all over his head and face, and even the bone sword was thrown out.
"Azhen!" A Guang immediately rushed over and held Zhi Shouzhen.
"A Guang, I will do it myself." Zhi Shouzhen gasped and tried her best to break away from A Guang's hand.
"I can help you!"
"You've helped enough."
"It's okay, Azhen, we are relatives!"
"We are relatives. But we are not alone."
The two looked at each other for a moment, A Guang let go of his hands and stared at Zhi Shuzhen's hands digging the ground, arching his back, like an earthworm with his body cut off, wriggling forward in pain, approaching the bone sword bit by bit.
Under the golden afterglow, the boy grabbed the bone sword and stood up with a shaking look so dim, but it seemed to be shining with a sharp light.
A Guang's footsteps moved and retracted. He seemed to understand something, lowered his head and looked at the soft green vine sword in his hand.
Zhi Shuimian was leaning on the bone sword and staggering for a long time before walking to the sacrifice. A Guang quickly took out the flint from his waist bag, ignited it on a piece of dry firewood. The firewood was taken from firewood trees everywhere in the Tianhe Realm. Their trunks were covered with tree scars like eyes, branches were dense like nets, and crossed, and the pentagonal golden leaves were like stars. Once ignited, they could communicate with the mysterious ancient spirit.
"Bee--" A small flame rushed out, licking the firewood, and a wisp of crimson smoke rose up like a charming snake, coiling upwards. Firewood burst out with gold sparks from time to time, and the rich fragrance spread out.
A Guang retreated far away.
"The ancient spirit wandering between heaven and earth, please follow the guidance of the fire of firewood and wood, go to my place, take my sacrifice, and respond to my request..." Faced with the swaying flames, Zhi Shouzhen slowly recited the prayer of the carp.
"Peng!" The fire suddenly flourished and violently soared into the air, and the air swayed like transparent water waves. A foreign object emerged from the void, making a scream of milkyness.
Its upper body is like a child, with a small face like an apple, rosy and plump, with big eyes round, watery, and snow-white ears pointy and long. The lower body is a big furry tail, sweeping around in the air.
"I'm so annoying. I'm still playing house." Gu Ling glanced at Zhi Shujin, wrinkled his pink nose, and sucked it back with a sudden sucking of the two shiny snots that flowed out.
The ancient spirits summoned before were all kinds and strange, and Zhi Shouzhen didn't realize it was abnormal. He pointed to the ground: "The ancient spirits wandering around the world, these are the sacrifices I traded."
Gu Ling glanced quickly and slapped his little hand in front of his nose: "It smells so smelly, what a mess! You carp are really stupid. Wouldn't you exchange for some interesting offerings? For example, talking dolls, fragrant bellybands! Hey, you are so terrible, what are you looking at?" It glared at Zhi Shuzhen fiercely. The carp man looked at him very strangely, looking at him from top to bottom, as if he was peeling his prey.
Zhi Shuimi lowered his eyelids and repeated: "These are sacrifices I traded."
"Okay, okay, my ears are not deaf!" Gu Ling opened his mouth impatiently, and a deep air vortex rotated out, expanding continuously, ore, wolf head, heart... were all involved. Gu Ling sucked it hard, and the air vortex contracted backwards and threw it back into his mouth.
Zhi Shouzhen's eyes flashed. Is this a magic trick? Or is it a natural magic?
"Tell me, what do you want to exchange?" Gu Ling shook her big furry tail boredly, "Hurry up, I'm going to go back to play house."
Zhi Shouzhen said: "When I condensed my sword fetus, I sucked in the sunlight, so—"
"It's another stupid carp that randomly absorbs the golden light of the sun!" Gu Ling let out a "giggle" ridicule, "Even if I'm lucky enough to die, I still want to cure my injuries? I don't have this magic pill."
“Not even a cure?”
"No, no!" Gu Ling shook his head like a rattle, "I haven't heard of it anyway."
Zhi Shouzhen was silent for a while and said, "Then exchange the elixirs for body refining."
"Azhen?" A Guang couldn't help but scream, and Zhi Shouzhen shook his head at him.
"I'll say it earlier, a waste of time!" Gu Ling reached out and pinched his nostrils, blew out two bright snots with a "pop", and threw them in front of Zhi Shuzhen, "Use a tank of water to melt it, take a bath in the morning and evening, for seven consecutive days."
Before Zhi Shouzhen could speak again, the ancient spirit swept his big tail and rushed into the void, disappearing in an instant. The air slowly swept away like ripples, and then returned to calm.
"Azhen, what are you doing for changing the body refining medicine?" A Guang ran over anxiously, and the two snots on the ground quickly solidified, turning into two pieces of yellow-white ointment, emitting a strong smell of medicine.
"A Guang, this is for you." Zhi Shouzhen looked at the place where the ancient spirit disappeared, and a strange light flashed in his eyes. Just now, he used the padlock method of the Divine Lock Art to quietly hang a spiritual mark in the ancient spirit's body. As long as this ancient spirit appears, he can accurately find the other person with this "spiritual lock".
"Ah Zhen! I'm not in a hurry, your injury is the most important..." Ah Guang talked for a long time, and Zhi Shouzhen suddenly interrupted him: "Ah Guang, Gu Ling may not be a life that can be seen and intangible. Otherwise, where will they come from?" He pointed to the ointment on the ground and pondered, "In my opinion, Gu Ling is a creature that can transform between virtual and real."
A Guang looked at Zhi Shouzhen with a blank look on his face: "I don't understand very much."
Zhi Shouzhen smiled: "It's getting late, I'm a little tired, let's go back."
"Oh, okay! We will continue hunting tomorrow." A Guang carefully put away the ointment, put on the bamboo basket, tried his best to slow down, and followed Zhi Shuzhen back.
"A Guang, have any carp caught Gu Ling before?"
"ah?"
"Where to trade with the ancient spirit as sacrifice?"
"ah?"
"A Guang, your sword technique is a bit flawed. The soft sword pursues changes, such as when you killed the black-faced porcupine just now..." Zhi Shouzhen changed the topic and gestured with one hand. A Guang immediately disbanded the gods, waved the vine sword, and gestured with great enthusiasm.
"That's it." Zhi Shouzhen watched A Guang's wrist turn, shook out a bunch of sword flowers, and smiled slightly.
When the ancient spirits turn from virtual to real and appear in front of the sacrifice, it should be the best time to kill them.
That is the most precious sacrifice.
