After the silent killing, Gu Shanbu Shui's somewhat irritable mood calmed down a little.
He went straight to a clear stream nearby, and after washing the blood on his hands, the young governor simply took off his shoes, rolled up his trousers, and soaked his feet on the rocks.
The clear mountain spring water soaked the rough skin on the soles of the feet, and a few bold-faced rice fish pecked at the dead skin on the surface. Waves of itchy touch were transmitted to the mind, which relaxed the tense nerves a lot.
"Chakra...the power brings not only hope, but also the devil that confuses people!" 』
What happened in the small village not far behind me was really unbearable to watch.
"I looked up the history and found that there was no chronology in it. Each leaf of the history was written crookedly with the words 'benevolence, justice and morality'. I couldn't sleep, so I read carefully for half the night, and then I saw the words between the words. , there are two words written all over the book: 'Eat people'!"
Mr. Lu's words are now taken seriously by Gu Shanbu Shui. At the beginning of this life, he was a member of the rentier group, and the young family governor felt deeply about it.
Enjoying the wealth you are born with with peace of mind, you will also do some small things with a little effort, and distribute a little benefit to those in need.
Even so, the money at his disposal and the profits earned by the family have no tendency to decrease. Apart from gaining some false reputation for kindness, his impact on the world is very limited.
The protagonist in the movie "Charlotte's Trouble" spends more and more money. No matter how much he loses, the "pain" will be doubled in unexpected forms. Gu Shanbu Shui truly understands this.
When wealth and influence reach a certain level, it is like a snowball rolling down from the top of a snow mountain. It will only get bigger and bigger. Money is like snowflakes, and it will naturally attract them.
Of course, this is a phenomenon in sociology and economics. Gushan Bushui has never thought that "cannibalism" is no longer an exaggeration, but a naked reality before our eyes.
Those who don’t know where they come from, which family the sect is derived from, or the inheritance of the Shinto sect, but what they do is really beyond the scope of human beings.
The taboo of "cannibalism" seems to not exist in their eyes.
When Gushan Bushui found this village, he just thought it was a village occupied and bullied by bandits. After getting to know it more deeply, he was shocked. This human gathering place disguised as an ordinary mountain village was actually a bloody breeding base and slaughterhouse. , the livestock staying here are humans who are regarded as "two-legged sheep".
After confirming that there was nothing wrong, Gushan Bushui decided to slaughter and bury those people completely.
In the past, Gu Shan Bu Shui had no hope for the lower limit of the human heart. Most of the killings in the world were for the purpose of hunting and survival, but this was not necessarily the case for human cannibalism.
Human nature is different from animal nature, but the former is not necessarily nobler than the latter.
What happened today really made Gu Shan Bu Shui refresh his understanding of the word "bad".
After a long time, Hanqi, who had stepped on dead branches and fallen leaves, came over, knelt on the ground with one knee, and reported rather uneasily:
"Young Master, everything has been dealt with, and no one has slipped through the net. Searching all the nearby corners, we have found a total of more than twenty victims who are still alive, and we have asked people to help treat them..."
"Others, is there anything else you want to say?"
"It's my subordinate who mishandled the situation, and I feel unworthy of my trust in the young master!"
"It's normal to be negligent in doing things, but the attitude of admitting your mistakes but refusing to correct them makes me very unhappy. Nominally, you are the leader of this 'Evil Alliance'. How to use this temporary status should not be You need me to teach you.”
Gushan Bu Shui turned his head and looked at the leader of the Feng Mo clan who was sweating profusely and waiting for the verdict.
"For the sake of family inheritance, you did not hesitate to trade with Orochimaru, seek the skin of a tiger, and after being deceived, you want to find another job. Survival and death, this choice, you who live on the streets and play 'Sennin Jump' to kill customers, will not be unaware of it. Importance. Abandoning the dignity of a ninja and becoming a lackey under the command of the Gusugi clan is indeed an insult to our ancestors. However, if others don't treat you as a human being, you have to respect yourself and don't give up your bottom line as a human being..."
After a pause, Gushan Bushui stepped forward with his bare feet on the cobblestones, and helped Hansaki, who was shaking all over, up.
"Tell me, why didn't you report it immediately?"
After finishing his words, Hansaki, who had been prepared for a long time, handed over a thick booklet.
"At first, I just regarded them as good warriors and fighting partners, similar to the Inuzuka clan's ninjas, especially their declared purpose of being close to nature and liberating nature, and the powerful psychic beasts they cultivated. It’s of great value. It wasn’t until yesterday that I heard the turmoil, and I was ready to explore the truth. The young master has already taken action..."
"Greed has blinded you. If they are really as powerful as they claim and have no trouble at all, why should they use you as a shield?"
Gushan Bu Shui sneered coldly, flipping through the presented pamphlet.
The content inside is roughly the same as the evil god's ravings that wrap twisted doctrines into a more normal form, and is also mixed with sealing spells and sacrificial formations whose effects are unknown.
Using cruel techniques, they "concoct" desperate sacrifices one by one and feed them to carefully selected beasts, and then use special means to induce "alienation", making them become violent and greatly increase their strength.
Not only animals eat it, but the ninjas who control the beasts also eat it. It is said that it is to strengthen the bond with their "combat partners" and to work together more tacitly.
There are even some very strange secret techniques that allow ninjas and beasts to perfectly merge with each other when they practice to a high level, and gain power comparable to that of gods.
Unlike Hidan's "religionists", the followers of the evil god have actually created monsters that have immortality and can also cast blood spells. Hidden in the deep mountains and forests of the Bear Country, they have been steaming for many years without any decent results. .
Even so, this place is notorious within a hundred miles as a hideous place of filth and evil.
"Do you still remember what I said to you back then?"
"Loyalty, I know, young master. Please give me a chance to make amends!"
It is true that most of the wandering ninjas here are villains, and Gushan Bushui is indeed prepared to kill them.
However, Hansaki and the Fuuma clan, who are the talkers in front of the stage, must not be regarded as the same as them.
Among the ruins of blood and fire, what emerged from the ashes was the prototype of an upright ninja village, and it definitely couldn't be a notorious bandit leader.
"I am still very patient with myself. As long as there is no question about your loyalty, if I make a mistake, it is because I did not know the person well and used the person inappropriately, and it is not your fault. Which one do you want? No need to answer, prove it to me with actions look!"
The young family governor, who waved his hand for Hanqi to step aside, put away the manuscript in his hand, feeling a little tired in his heart.
In addition to the characters who have appeared in the "plot" in my memory, there are many unknown monsters and monsters in the nooks and crannies of the ninja world. Most of them were exterminated by the ninja villages, and a few could not adapt to the times and destroyed themselves.
Most of the people hiding in the deep mountains and old forests have no real abilities and pretend to be gods to scare the ignorant civilians.
It is relatively rare for a very rare guy like today, who goes further and further down the wrong path and is quite capable.
"It's really ugly to see a summoner who clearly looks like a Druid sect degenerating into a dehumanizing trick..."
Similar things, there are also fragments of records in the Gushan family's inheritance library, but they use the malice of people's hearts and the despair before death to use blood sacrifice to create a "flesh and blood secret medicine", a way to increase strength after swallowing it. , this is the first time I have seen such a detailed one.
This fact confirms the conclusion of the chat between Kosugi Fusui and Otsutsuki Kaguya not long ago.
To quickly increase your strength, you can't avoid tailed beasts and jinchūriki no matter what.
Every time Kosugi Bosui asked for advice on ninjutsu, the goddess Uno would always fool people with "junk" tricks that they couldn't learn, such as the Blood Succession Snare and Yin-Yang Escape. She didn't know any real and practical ninjutsu. How could she expect to learn it from her? It is basically impossible to obtain any powerful secret skills.
However, Kaguya Otsutsuki, the "ancestor of Chakra", has a profound understanding of the essence of Chakra, the core of the extraordinary power of the ninja world.
"Chakra is like food. For everything to grow, it is inseparable from the intake of external nutrients. Humans eat chicken, duck, fish, vegetables and fruits, and plants absorb trace elements from the soil and use sunlight and carbon dioxide to synthesize carbohydrates. The Otsutsuki clan and the Sacred Tree no longer need those low-quality "foods". Absorbing chakra is like eating, which is far more efficient than eating the corpses of living creatures directly! 』
Chakra is essentially the same as humans eating chicken, pork, soybeans, corn, etc., which can supplement their survival needs; however, chakra, an energy that contains both the physical and spiritual attributes of living things, is naturally different. emotions mixed into it.
Especially the joys, sorrows and joys of intelligent creatures are like the seasonings in a delicacy. You can still eat them without them, but they are too bland and difficult to swallow.
The right combination of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar will not only make people feel happy when eating, appetizing and digesting, but also good for health, and occasionally there will be surprising harvests.
Chakra has the characteristics of life, but it is not a living creature. The Sage of Six Paths used Yin and Yang to create the nine tailed beasts. Others do not have the ability to create life out of thin air.
"So, it is extremely difficult to create a being at the level of the Nine Tailed Beasts. However, it is theoretically possible to "create" a powerful being with similar characteristics using some special means! 』
Yes, in the eyes of the goddess Mao, the "zero tail" created by "Shennong" that does not exist in this world really has a slight possibility of success.
From another perspective, it is definitely not possible to directly create a "tailed beast". It is very difficult to create a "container" to hold chakra and collect enough chakra.
However, you can directly use existing creatures to infuse a large amount of chakra, which will gradually expand like blowing up a balloon.
Of course, most creatures in the ninja world have a limit to their capacity. Just like a small balloon, if it is inflated too much, it will explode and die on the spot.
The probability of hoping to give birth to a creature that can hold a huge amount of chakra is about the same as cultivating a genius ninja who can become a Jinchuuriki.
The difference is that the jinchuriki needs to be a living human being, but the "balloon" to be blown does not have to be a human being, animals can also be used.
The group of people who were wiped out not long ago were doing similar things. Qualified ninjas were hard to find, and civilians who were so poor that they were willing to sell themselves just for a bite of food were everywhere. Huge mutations Wild animals are running all over the mountains and plains.
Those people tortured and killed the innocent villagers in order to extract enough pain and despair, and squeeze the most chakra from the mortal body. The strong negative emotions rendered these bloody chakras like "dark cuisine" "Generally, if you eat it, you will become abnormal.
"Hidan, that mentally disturbed guy, was probably born in a similar environment. It’s lucky that no madman like that was born here.』
Maybe the weird monster that the people here worship is not as powerful as the evil god and doesn't have the ability to give him power.
"The source of all power is Chakra! Success comes from this, and failure also comes from this!"
The perception that she didn't know when to let go allowed the goddess Mao to know the changes in the outside world and also understand the entanglement of Gu Shanbu Shui as a human.
The young family governor cheered up and responded slowly:
"There is something in the words! In theory, you are the ancestor of chakra. It is impossible to be defeated by your own power. This is like a pancake that is bigger than the pot in which it is baked. It is incredible. As long as you don't want to, it is actually No one can seal you..."
After a long silence, Otsutsuki Kaguya said leisurely:
"Even I have moments when I am motivated."
"Can't the so-called 'god' escape the shackles of the seven emotions and six desires?"
"Although we are a little different from you humans, we also express our emotions and desires on another level. If there were really no emotions, your ancestors would have become fertilizers that nourished the earth long ago, and there would be none now. You talk nonsense in front of me..."
"Okay! I just felt it. I thought you had some conspiracy before. You pretended to be stupid and deceived me. You had some ulterior motives!"
"Silly and silly?"
The goddess of Mao, who seemed to be stunned by this comment, squinted her eyes slightly, her sharp gaze conveying her anger through the illusion,
"It seems that you are very satisfied with your intelligence. You probably don't need my guidance anymore!"
"No, no, no, that's what I said! I don't mean anything bad..."
Gushan Bushui quickly made up for it,
"Actually, it's not a bad intention, it's just a relatively affectionate way of saying it, just joking. Have you seen Hansaki and I talking with this attitude?"
"I don't know how many generations have separated my mistresses, can they be considered close?"
If we insist on calculating closeness, Momiji and Kaguya Otsutsuki are more than third-degree relatives, not to mention third-degree relatives.
