The Totem of You may be the ideal of the entire Qinghuo tribe, but this ideal does not belong to Qinghuo Qiming.
His grandfather was a brave man of the tribe, his father was a disgrace to the tribe, and his adoptive father was the strongest shaman in the history of the Fire Tribe who had initially completed the Totem of the Netherworld... They all died because of it.
The Qinghuo tribe was dragged down by an unattainable ideal.
And Qinghuo Qiming was just a young man who lost his father, his grandfather, and his adoptive father.
Because of these repeated losses, he developed a fear of Youtian and did not dare to go near the cave. Therefore, he was regarded as a shame by the tribe and called a coward. Although he inherited the position of witch Zhu, he was not respected.
Jiang Wang had never figured out what Qinghuo Qiming was thinking when he jumped down from the sky.
Their intersection was so brief, and apart from the blazing bone lotus on the back of the spine, there seemed to be no trace left. But Qinghuo Qiming's leap still occasionally appeared in his mind - when he looked up at the stars.
Some people are born strong, and some people may never be able to overcome mediocrity. But under the same starry sky, do they retain the same right to exist? Or is it natural selection, where only the fittest survive?
This is the question that Qinghuo Qiming left in Jiang Wang's heart.
…
…
Qu State is considered to be at the junction of the Northern Territory and the Eastern Territory. It is also a sovereign and independent country. It has always had disputes with Zheng State.
Of course, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the friction between the two countries is only superficial, and there has never been any major action in substance. It can be said that they are covering up for each other.
For many years, the two countries of Qu and Zheng have been able to dance well between the three hegemons of Jing, Qi and Mu.
Speaking of Qu State, Jiang Wang's first impression was that the general of Qu State's border town was assassinated by Hell Wumen. This was Yin Guan's first mission after forming Hell's Gateless. It shocked the Eastern Region at that time, and Hell's Gateless became famous after this battle.
From then on, it was not until Yin Guancheng's arrival that the Qu State withdrew the wanted document.
Setting foot on the land of Qu State, a sense of solidity arises spontaneously.
Being here is like returning to the Eastern Region.
Although the grassland is safe and relaxing, it does not feel as secure as in the Eastern Region.
After all, his official title is most effective in the Eastern Region.
Although upon closer inspection, it seems that he has never been very stable in places other than Qi State in the Eastern Region...
It was early August when I left the Eastern Region. When we returned to the Eastern Region, it was already September. The maple clouds, one of the seven scenic spots in Linzi, are not late, and it is already out of season.
In just one month, I experienced life and death several times, and made a big circle. I circled back to the East through the Northern Territory, and it was inevitable to feel a little emotional.
The injuries on his body were completely healed by this time, and his body and mind had returned to their peak condition.
I don't know if it is because I have been recovering myself with the Five Palaces Tongyao during this period, which caused too much power to escape. In short, the Ruyi Immortal Clothes has also been restored.
Finally, I no longer have to look like a beggar, wearing rags inside and coarse linen clothes... The dragon-headed crutches are regarded as dog-beating sticks by others.
Jiang Wang sometimes thinks that even if Qi Ting has no requirements for him, he will not reveal his identity in that state...
This small town in Qu State is called Yuguang. In the early years, there was a huge jade mine nearby. Many people relied on it for mining, reselling, and carving.
Those miners and businessmen gathered here for a long time, and gradually formed a city.
The name "Jade Light" originally referred to the glow of jade, and later it became "Jade Light".
Jiang Wang found a more pleasant tavern, occupied a table to himself, warmed a pot of wine, ordered two kilograms of plain mutton, and listened to people's discussions, all kinds of life...
Some people talk about the shortcomings of their parents, while others talk about the situation in the Eastern Region.
This city, which is mainly composed of miners, is not as rough as imagined. On the contrary, it is warm and comfortable.
Maybe it's because jade supports people, or maybe it's because after the jade mines were exhausted, there were several rounds of people here, and other industries were developed throughout the city.
With his current level of cultivation, ordinary wine can no longer intoxicate people, but Jiang Wang was lazily eating mutton and taking a sip or two from time to time, feeling slightly tipsy.
From the environment to himself, it was a safe state, which made him feel relaxed.
From the vast and sparsely populated grasslands, we return to the densely populated eastern region. The vastness of nature and the bustling fireworks of the human world made him feel comfortable.
"Sir, what would you like to order?"
"A jug of wine and a dish of fennel beans."
This conversation attracted Jiang Wang's attention.
With his current control over the way of sound, once he heard a sound once, it would be difficult to forget it again. Especially after turning on the voice-hearing fairy state, the voices heard a long time ago will also provide information obediently, because "all the voices are coming."
He didn't look back, and his behavior of eating meat and drinking didn't change even a little bit. He just silently started the voice-hearing fairy state.
"What kind of wine would you like, sir?"
"the best."
This guy who is new to the restaurant has a bit of a sense of cherishing his words like gold.
But Jiang Wang had already captured it.
The sound is in my ears, and relevant information has emerged.
Tracing its origins, the last time two people had a conversation was at the Qiyang battlefield in Chiwei County.
At that time, this person only said - "I know, thank you!"
Jiang Wang silently drank the wine in the glass and ate the last few pieces of mutton.
The waiter who had already noticed this place hurriedly came forward and asked, "What would you like to add, sir?"
Jiang Wang shook his head in rejection.
The money for the food and wine had already been paid, so he casually put on the cloak that was standing on the corner of the table and stood up.
While putting away the faucet crutch leaning against his leg, he took out the sheathed Sauvignon Blanc from the storage box, held it in his hand, and walked towards the new drinker who entered the tavern.
When the waiter saw this scene, he took two steps back.
People in the tavern were still eating, drinking, talking and laughing.
But gradually, some people realized something was wrong and looked this way.
Only the ordinary-looking young man sitting facing Jiang slowly pinched an fennel bean and threw it into his mouth. Without turning his head, he just asked lightly: "Is something wrong?"
After going through so much, he has developed a good momentum. He didn't look exhausted as before, nor was he in a hurry like that time when we met on Haimen Island. He was quite calm and indifferent to the situation.
Everyone has his or her own fate, and everyone is growing.
"Yang Xuance, Yang Xuance." Jiang Wang said loudly: "The big things you did in Zhaoheng City have caused me so much pain."
This statement already made his identity clear.
Yang Xuance turned his head suddenly!
The moment he turned his head, his eyes were bright and golden, and they burst into flames. The raging fire instantly filled the distance between him and Jiang Wang. The flaming snake is blazing high and looks ferocious on the left and right, as if it wants to choose someone to devour.
Jiang Wang only stretched out his hand, and with the suppression of Samadhi's true fire magical power, the flames all over the place were wiped out, eliminating a disaster that might have affected the entire restaurant.
And Yang Xuance's figure has disappeared!
Jiang Wang stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the air. The remaining flame he held turned into a grass shape, and he lowered his head to point the way.
After sorting out Taoism during this period, Taoism recollection has made further progress. Although it is still not an excellent tracking secret technique, it can still provide clues at this moment when certain traces have been grasped.
The waiter in the shop saw flames all over the sky, but before he could panic, he saw them being extinguished with one hand.
And the man in linen clothes who had finished eating the mutton before taking action had already stepped out of the tavern.
