"Starting tonight, Wenli will never owe anyone anything."
Licking Wenli's wounds sadly, the other Wenli was obviously more emotional and had a weaker character.
But it's not surprising when you think about it. After all, this Wenli has inherited more of Wenli's original emotional side, which is what Wenli really expected.
"My half body, my brother..."
"May your soul be accepted by the mountains and be reborn with a new attitude one day."
"I am not waiting for time or reincarnation. I will wait for my brother's return in the name of 'Red Leopard'!"
Wenli, who was officially renamed "Red Leopard", sang rhythmically, but the meaning of his words could only be understood by Pei Wende, who had practiced "Tian Er Tong".
Heavenly Ear is a magical power of wisdom that can indirectly know the thoughts of sentient beings through sound, as well as the pain, joy, good and evil causes and consequences of their thoughts.
At the same time, practitioners who practice the power of heavenly ears can also understand all the Dharma taught by the Buddhas of the ten directions in words, without mixing their own thoughts and delusions, without falling into the pit of words, and understand all the grammar in the world.
To put it simply, today's Pei Wende is born with a "universal translation" function.
Even if it was the sacrificial chant recited by Chi Bao as the "Son of the Mountains", he could clearly understand the deep meaning and what Fang's actions meant.
This is a special memorial ceremony and a sign of Red Leopard's rebirth.
From then on, his fate of "killing his mother and killing his father" will disappear with the death of Wenli, and will be replaced by the birth of a mountain god who has escaped the cause and effect.
This new mountain god is the son of the mountains, the master of birds and beasts, and the controller of the flames of the mountains and forests.
Wherever mountains and fires set fire to the prairie land, they are all under the authority of Red Leopard.
According to Pei Wende's understanding, the reborn Red Leopard is actually a mountain god symbolizing "disaster".
This is determined by his origin and experience, and is also the result of the resentment of the mountain ghost.
The only good thing is that the red leopard in charge of this power has a relatively weak character, which complements the power of disaster that symbolizes mountain fires.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
After a long time, when Chibao stopped reciting the sacrificial rites, the heavy rain seemed to have finally stopped.
The wolf demon was still kneeling on the ground, but it no longer shed tears. Only the head buried deeply in its neck indicated its current uneasy mood.
The huge falcon still held its head high, but the human eyes could not conceal the loss and loneliness.
As Wenli's companions, they never confuse Wenli and Red Leopard.
Although the two men came from the same origin and had the same memories and experiences, the hugely different personalities were a fact that could not be ignored.
Wenli is Wenli, the son of the mountains who has shouldered everything and ended all the grudges and hatreds in himself.
Chibao is Chibao, the half-body who has placed Wenli's life's hopes on him and is destined to fulfill his duties as a mountain god in the future.
"Please forgive me and accept the change!"
After hesitating for a long time, Pei Wende could only use these meaningless words to admonish several people involved.
"..."
Turning his head and looking at Pei Wende, Chibao didn't say anything more, but once again looked at the giant human-faced bear beside him who could no longer restrain himself.
"I know what else you want to ask. Aunt Shui and the others are fine. They are just sorting out some of the mess left by my mother."
His origins are already known to everyone, so Chibao naturally has no reason to hide anything else.
Therefore, in the following description, Pei Wende and the Giant Bear learned some details that were not mentioned before.
For example, what exactly is the sacrificial ceremony in Toyota Village?
As mentioned before, the mountain ghost cursed all the villagers in Toyota Village before his death.
At that time, Toyota Village benefited from the blessing of the mountain ghost, and the number of households had already exceeded one hundred. It was absolutely impossible that there were only a few original villagers like that just now.
So, where did those missing villagers go?
Pei Wende's question got the answer from Chibao's mouth - the villagers were all stunned.
Not everyone can bear the despair of eternal hunger and immortality.
After spending the first few years, the villagers, who were always suffering from hunger, tried their best to kill themselves, but none of them succeeded.
It's because the mountain ghost doesn't allow them to die. The mountain ghost wants them to accept this punishment forever.
It wasn't until one day that an outsider entered Toyota Village by mistake and was assimilated by the curse of Toyota Village by accident, and the villagers discovered that the number of people was "too many".
The curse left by the mountain ghost does not seem to have much wisdom, and it simply operates according to certain rules.
Whenever an outsider is assimilated into Toyota Village, there will be an extra quota in Toyota Village - a quota for the villagers to die.
The first villager to realize this stepped out of Toyota Village and was freed as he wished.
The soul of this villager dissipated, and his flesh and blood merged into the rural road outside Toyota Village...
The reddish-brown road that Pei Wende and the others saw when they entered Toyota Village was stained by the flesh and blood of hundreds of Toyota Village villagers.
Because its flesh and blood carries the curse of mountain ghosts, it takes on a form similar to the "blood of ghosts and gods".
The remaining villagers who were unwilling to die completely abandoned their humanity and turned into monsters to fight against the curse of the mountain ghost.
This is how the sacrificial ceremony to the mountain god was born.
These villagers who were unwilling to give up hope discovered that not all outsiders would be cursed and assimilated.
On the contrary, there are only a few outsiders who can eventually integrate into Toyota Village.
The vast majority of outsiders will become living corpses because they cannot bear the torture and pain they endure during the assimilation process.
At this time, as long as these outsiders are dragged to the place where the body of the mountain ghost is buried, and their flesh and blood are used to feed the long-dead mountain god, they can control the power of the curse to a certain extent.
At the very least, the first batch of villagers could control their hunger within a relatively controllable range and avoid being driven crazy by the eternal hunger.
In other words, these first villagers of Toyota Village fed an evil god in a way that was almost like raising gu.
This was also an important reason why Wenli had not dared to force his way into Toyota Village before.
In addition to looking for a way to break the mountain ghost's curse, Wen Li was also worried that once the evil god born from the mountain ghost was angered, it would become a terrible disaster sweeping the entire Xiangzhou.
If the water demon hadn't run away from home with his two children this time and came to Toyota Village, Wenli might not have been able to make this determination.
However, the inherited memory from the mountain ghost convinced him that even if the evil god really went berserk, the water demon would be able to handle it.
