"Master Shu! Master Shu?"
I tried calling a few more times, but there was still no response.
It was as if the big banyan tree in front of him had never woken up and everything just now was just an illusion.
But the changes in his body and soul, as well as the star blade in his hand, all showed that this couldn't be more real.
"Master Shu, if you are still here, can you just say something?"
I reached out and scratched my head helplessly, feeling that this "village-protecting tree" in Wujiacun really had its own personality!
When the thunder from the sky strikes me, I pick up the conversation very quickly, and when I really want to have a serious conversation, I don’t even fart. Of course, this is just a joke, and I am very grateful to "Shu Ye".
Human monks do not have thunder tribulations, but the long-term benefits brought by truly experiencing "thunder tribulations" are unimaginable!
"Perhaps Mr. Shu was seriously injured and could only maintain his mental clarity for a short time. It can only be used in the most important situations."
What is most important to it?
Judging from the various situations just now, it should be to help the descendants of the Wu family experience the "Thunder Tribulation"!
Maybe... it's a promise made to the two ancestors hundreds of years ago, Wu Shi and Wu Yuan?
It can be seen from this that the identities and real abilities of the two ancestors cannot be as simple as the stories passed down in the family!
It's just that even the descendants of Wujiacun can't figure out the truth back then. Who can know?
By chance, I got a glimpse of a hidden corner and got the protection they left behind. So I decided on the spot that I would be more religious when worshiping my ancestors during the Spring Festival this year!
"Master Shu, if you don't have any instructions, I will go back."
Looking at the silent big banyan tree in front of me, I finally said.
In fact, I also wanted to try pouring some blood on the roots or trunks of trees, but my physical condition really did not allow it.
I sighed.
"Okay then, just like Mr. Shu said, we'll see you again by fate. Thank you very much for tonight!"
As I said that, I bowed my hands and saluted the big banyan tree in front of me sincerely - just like I would do to the elders in my family.
After that, I was ready to turn around and leave.
The rain has stopped.
The dark clouds in the sky were slowly dispersing, and even the moon was peeking out from the clouds, shedding thousands of silver rays of light.
Just then...
Whoosh!
Something seemed to have fallen between the canopy of trees overhead.
Because it was within the coverage of the big banyan tree, and I didn't feel the evil aura, I didn't use any magic to defend myself, and subconsciously raised my hand to grab it.
He grabbed the thing in his hand.
It seems to be a long and thick bar-shaped object...
Take a look at it.
"A dark branch?"
I saw that the branch was about a foot long, about as wide as two fingers placed together in diameter, and was completely black. It is obviously a tree branch, but it has a jade-like warmth and luster.
It feels cold to the touch, but inexplicably makes people feel like their hair is standing on end and slightly numb, as if it contains the aura of thunder and lightning.
I reacted immediately.
"Thunder-strike wood! This is a lightning-strike wood of excellent quality. It is also a treasure."
Uh... Of course, in theory, the entire big banyan tree can be understood as a "lightning strike tree", right? But it is still full of vitality, so it is estimated that there is only a part of the real carbonized lightning strike wood.
The so-called [Lightning Strike Wood], as the name suggests, is a carbonized tree that has turned black after being bombarded by thunder!
Among the people, it has been believed since ancient times that trees that have been struck by thunder are the most powerful talisman to ward off evil spirits.
In the eyes of the common people, because the message of the Thunder God and the Lightning Mother blocking the spirits remained on the lightning strike wood, it was extremely frightening to all kinds of ghost spirits.
If ordinary people are lucky enough to get a piece of real lightning strike wood, it can be used as a house ritual and passed down from generation to generation!
And if a practitioner obtains the Lightning Strike Wood, it will have more and greater uses!
Because different trees, different ages, different thunder and power, different times, etc... will cause [Lightning Strike Wood] to have various shapes and colors.
In terms of tree species, the best lightning strike wood is jujube, followed by peach wood. The rest is pretty much the same.
In terms of tree age, the longer the trees live, the better the lightning strikes formed by the trees will be.
In terms of thunder classification, Spring Thunder is the strongest, followed by Xia Thunder and Winter Thunder, and Qiu Lei is the weakest. At the same time, the greater the power of a single thunderbolt, the better.
In terms of the color of lightning strike wood, the darker the color, the better, and dark black is the best.
In terms of gloss and touch, jade-like is the best, stone-like is in the middle, and wood-like is the worst.
In short, judging the quality of a piece of [Lightning Strike Wood] requires comparison from many aspects.
At this moment, the lightning-struck wood in my hand, although the "tree species" is just a relatively common banyan tree - called yellow jujube tree in Sichuan and Chongqing areas - is not comparable to jujube and peach trees.
But it is the wood of a thousand-year-old tree, and the psychic has been there for at least five hundred years.
More importantly...the color of this [Lightning Strike Wood] is deep black! And the touch is almost no different from jade. If you didn't know it was lightning strike wood, you might have thought it was carved from black jade.
To put it simply, this is definitely a rare and top-quality [Lightning Strike Wood] with excellent quality!
I looked at the big banyan tree and asked.
"Master Shu, is this a gift from you?"
no answer.
Only the night wind blows through the canopy of the trees, and the leaves rustle, which is very pleasant.
But it probably should be!
"Thank you Mr. Shu!"
I bowed my hands again and said thank you - I have said thank you too many times tonight.
But indeed, the benefits I got were huge.
Not to mention the improvement of one's own strength and the re-sacrifice of the Star Blade, I don't know how many rare treasures or cultivation resources can be obtained in exchange for this piece of lightning strike wood in the ghost market.
If you choose to exchange it for money in the secular world, it will probably start in the tens of digits! The kind with no cap...
After all, this kind of top-quality [Thunder Strike Wood] is in great need for many large cultivating forces, and the cultivating forces themselves will also support some "agents" in the secular world to do business and make money for themselves.
After all, practitioners are also human beings with flesh and blood. They also eat, drink, and have sex, and they also need material comforts.
Buzz buzz, buzz!
The star blade in his hand suddenly trembled violently, and the silver light and blue electric light on the sword intertwined and flowed.
Um?
I looked down at the star blade in my hand.
"Man, what's wrong with you? Are you so excited all of a sudden?"
As an offensive magic weapon, the Star Blade does not fully produce spiritual intelligence, but it is already psychic! Able to have rough communication and emotional resonance with the "master".
For example, right now, I can feel the Star Blade exuding a very "excited" emotion.
Uh-huh!
It actually came out of my hand and automatically flew in front of me, floating horizontally. The tip of the sword pointed towards the thunderbolt wood I held in my other hand.
I suddenly realized and asked.
"So...man, do you want this piece of lightning strike wood?"
Buzz!
The sword body vibrated and the sound of the sword was clear.
I haven't reacted yet - maybe I was struck by lightning three times today, and my brain was temporarily a little less sensitive. So I asked very doubtfully.
"Why do you want this lightning strike wood? No matter how good or top-quality it is, it is still wood after all. Even if it has a texture similar to jade, it is much softer than you. I can't continue to repair your body."
Buzz, buzz!
The Star Blade vibrated hard twice, as if it felt like I was a fool.
Then the sword turned in a circle and pointed the hilt at the lightning strike wood in my hand...
It dawned on me.
