Volume 3: Stormy Chapter 262: Introduction and Responsibilities
"Let's go..."
He Wenwen looked back at Wang and said, "I have already made an appointment with the gatekeeper. She should be waiting for you inside now."
"Thank you!"
After Wang Bing came to his senses, he and He Wenwen walked inside.
How to say it, ever since Wang Bing stepped into this breeding base, he vaguely felt that there seemed to be a smell of medicine in the air around him, and he subconsciously covered his mouth and nose.
He Wenwen, who was walking in front, also turned around and looked at Wang and said, "It's okay, the medicine in the air is not poisonous..."
"That's fine..."
"It will only paralyze people's meridians, making it impossible for them to use their luck..." He Wenwen said slowly.
Damn it!
Can't you breathe more heavily when you speak?
The Qi flame that Wang Bing had just extinguished began to evaporate again. With the help of his innate supernatural powers, Wang Bing was able to assimilate the paralyzing toxin in the air.
“Master Wang, please forgive me. This is also to prevent someone from causing trouble in Tengshan!”
At this time, a tall woman came out, looked at He Wenwen, bowed and said, "Uncle He, the master has been waiting in the house for a long time!"
"Thank you..."
He Wenwen glanced at the girl, then turned to Wang Bing and said, "I won't go in. You and Chen Ai can go in."
After saying that, He Wenwen walked towards the laboratory on the side without paying any attention to Wang Bing.
"Please, Master Wang!"
Chen Ai smiled faintly and walked into the house with Wang Bing.
Along the way, Wang Bing also met many employees working here. Without exception, whether they were extraordinary people or ordinary people, they were all women.
This surprised Wang Bing a little, but Chen Ai, who was walking in front wearing a cheongsam, seemed to have guessed Wang Bing's thoughts and said, "Master Wang, don't be surprised. After all, Tengshan is a female sect that has been passed down for thousands of years. Due to the rules, we don't accept men here, including ordinary people we hire, who must be women."
“I see!”
Wang Bing understood that the older the sect, the more rules it had. This was the norm in the circle. Although there were only about 20 to 30 extraordinary people in Tengshan, their tradition had been passed down for so many years, which showed that they had their own unique qualities.
After Wang Bing and Chen Ai walked through a cultivation room, they arrived at the mountain gate. In front of the mountain gate stood a large bronze tripod with animal face patterns, three legs and no ears, which looked a bit like the Ban Gui from the Western Zhou Dynasty .
At this time, there was a couple with a girl of five or six years old waiting here.
"This is……"
"This is the girl and her family who came for the initiation ceremony. Fujiyama doesn't have so many rules for accepting disciples. Whenever there is a time, an initiation ceremony will be held..."
Chen Ai introduced them and walked forward, saying, "Everyone, please wait a moment. The master will come down with the uncles to perform the initiation ceremony for Zhenzhen."
“No hurry, no hurry.”
The slightly plump man smiled and said, "It's a bit abrupt of us to come here so suddenly."
As he was talking, several figures walked down the mountain, led by the current head of Fujiyama, Yang Han (Author's note: I read the original work several times, and it seems that the second uncle did not say what the head of Fujiyama was called...)
There were two women of similar age following Yang Menzhang. Interestingly, Wang Bing discovered that all the women in Tengshan seemed to be tall.
This Yang family leader is nearly fifty years old, but he still looks like he is in his early thirties .
Not only him, but also his aunt He Wenwen is the same.
Could it be that this Fujiyama secret medicine also has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin?
After a while, He Wenwen and another woman who looked to be Chen Ai's uncle came up.
After seeing Wang Bing, the head of the Yang family nodded slightly and said, "Master Wang, please go to the reception room on the mountain and wait. I will go there after I complete the initiation ceremony..."
Wang Bing didn't say much. After all, he came suddenly and it was normal for the other person to have his own things to do. After paying his respects, Wang Bing followed Chen Ai towards the mountain.
Looking at Chen Aiwang who was leading the way for him, he asked curiously, "Miss Chen, don't you have to attend the ceremony?"
"Master Wang may not know that the initiation ceremony of Tengshan needs to be presided over by the sect leader and four uncles. I am not qualified to take on this position yet."
Chen Ai seemed to be recalling her past experience and said, "The little girl named Zhenzhen just now is the one who will hold the initiation ceremony today. Later, the master will give her a shower test with his unique secret medicine. As long as she can awaken her abilities, she can officially join Tengshan's sect."
"Is that so? Then why do we need a tripod? And it's a beast tripod..."
Wang Bing continued to ask. In his impression, the bronze tripods placed outside the gates of large sects should have words on them. This tripod with beast patterns on it was the first time he had seen it, and it looked like the bronze tripod was quite old.
"Master Wang, have you forgotten that we are also witches..."
Chen Ai turned around and said, "As for the duties of the wizard during the tribal period, I think I don't need to elaborate on them."
Hearing Chen Ai say this, Wang Bing was a little surprised. In the ancient primitive society with low productivity in the tribe, apart from the chief, the wizard had the highest status. In some tribes, the wizard was even the chief.
What are the duties of the tribal wizard? Sacrifices, medicine, divination, etc.
Those people in the tribe attributed many inexplicable phenomena to the power of God. People were full of awe of the gods, begging them and trying to please them.
Most tribes or clans considered themselves as descendants of strange animals (totems) and worshiped these strange beasts.
Therefore, this bronze tripod with animal patterns actually facilitates communication between wizards and gods.
However, according to Chen Ai, the Tengshan heritage is quite long.
At this time, the crows in the sky also conveyed the initiation ceremony at the foot of the mountain to Wang Bing's mind.
At this time, the girl named Zhenzhen was soaking in the medicine of the bronze tripod with animal patterns, while Chen Ai's four uncles were standing in the four corners, with their hands clasped together, their heads lowered, and they seemed to be muttering something.
At this time, Patriarch Yang was also chanting the spell with them. After the spell was finished, Patriarch Yang took the bowl of so-called secret medicine from a woman behind him who was holding a bowl of unknown liquid.
While making incomprehensible syllables from his mouth, he gently poured the bowl of medicine onto the little head that was exposed in the medicine.
As the secret medicine flowed on Zhenzhen's head, a light purple energy began to slowly emerge from Zhenzhen's body.
Is this the so-called top-down fighting method?
Directly draw out the Qi energy in Zhenzhen's body through the medicinal liquid, allowing her to gain a sense of Qi.
Gurgle!
A group of bubbles emerged from the liquid medicine...
