Traveling back to ancient times from the Western Han Dynasty
Chapter 39 Fire Moth
Hearing that the other party was still giving money to her ex-husband, Yan Fang's disgust was alleviated a lot. This was much better than those scumbag men and women in later generations.
Perhaps husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and flying away separately when disaster strikes is the law of survival for human beings.
But from what Yan Fang said before, that person has remarried, and it doesn't seem good to keep thinking about the ex when you have the current one.
"She looks haggard, she doesn't seem to be doing well in her new family?"
The woman's haggard complexion was mostly due to family reasons, Yan Fang was very confident.
"Her current husband likes gambling and often embezzles money from the herbal medicine shop to gamble. The two of them often quarrel over the operation of the herbal medicine shop."
Because of the whirlwind, Xuan would occasionally pay attention to the situation in their family.
After Feng Xuan left, his ex-wife was not good at running the business, and the business of the herbal medicine shop gradually declined. However, the prices kept increasing year by year, and it was difficult to regain the former glory.
Yan Fang sneered upon hearing this and no longer cared about the matter. He came here to observe the bear tribe and didn't want to care about these bad things.
Soon the two of them walked into a strange item shop with feather patterns painted on it.
In addition to various feathers, this shop also displays various strange things, such as the horns of cattle, the thick hairs of spider monsters, and the centipede legs soaked in an unknown yellow liquid that seems to be alcohol.
However, for some reason, the things here are extremely rare. But one of the women has the same blue blood chance light as Qing, and it is about to awaken.
In a corner of the store, two well-dressed women were gluing feathers onto their clothes with a special glue.
"What do you two want to buy?"
"We have all kinds of materials for witch formations and liches here. If you want to buy the feathered robe I'm wearing, you can go to the shop ten meters to the right. That's also my shop."
As the two came in, a girl in white light feathered clothes came forward. She was the one with the blue aura of opportunity.
The girl had fair skin and a plump figure. She wore red feather earrings on her ears and a feather dress. Although she was not as beautiful as the witch in red, she was the first beauty Yan Fang saw after he arrived in the Youxiong tribe.
This girl is fat where she should be fat, and thin where she should be thin, which brings Yan Fang a long-lost visual enjoyment.
"Hello, I'm Ji Xuan, he's Yan Fang, and we're here to look for Qing."
When facing people from the Bear Tribe, Xuan is often the first to speak.
"Xuan...cousin! Oh, are you looking for my brother? He is inside. I will take you in."
The girl was slightly surprised when she heard this. Although it was the first time they met, she was obviously not unfamiliar with Xuan's name. She looked at the two of them with a slightly curious look.
It turns out that this person is Qing's sister. No wonder she has the same luck and inspiration as Qing.
The girl asked another stout girl who was busy working to keep an eye on the store, then led Yan Fang and the other two to the inner courtyard, while also introducing herself.
"Brother Xuan, Brother Xuan Fang, I am Qing's sister, my name is Jiang Rong."
The Huoyu clan and the Lieshan clan, from which Emperor Yan Shennong came, are of the same origin, so they naturally also have the surname Jiang, which, like the Feng and Ji surnames, is a very ancient surname of the human race.
"Sister Jiang Rong, don't you practice body building techniques?"
When Xuan saw that there were no signs of body training on Jiang Rong, he became curious, and Yan Fang also wanted to ask this question.
Logically speaking, if one is born in a big family, even if his aptitude is very poor, he will not fall behind in body-building skills. This is the basis for the human race to survive today.
"No, I don't like myself becoming a big and strong man, and besides, I don't have much talent."
Jiang Rong shook her head, expressing her own aesthetic that was independent of the times, and continued:
"I also practiced some witchcraft, even if disasters dragged everyone down."
In this era, it was very difficult for the human race to survive and they were often threatened by wild monsters. The Bear City was destroyed several times. If it were not for the fact that building materials would not disappear out of thin air, Yan Fang would never have seen this big city again.
"Witchcraft? This..."
Xuan still has doubts, witchcraft is not easy to practice.
The witchcraft heritage of the Huoyu clan is quite unique, and less sinister, so it is difficult to tell whether a person practices witchcraft simply by looking at their appearance.
However, although the witchcraft of this era also depends on talent, its essence is dealing with ghosts and gods, borrowing power from ghosts and gods, heaven and earth, rather than improving oneself.
The practice of witchcraft is highly influenced by external factors. Before it is fully developed, the combat effectiveness is not high. After it is fully developed, it will often quickly age and die due to excessive use of witchcraft and being too close to ghosts, evil spirits, and even gods.
In the period after the change of vital energy, non-body-building humans can live to over a hundred years old, while body-building humans can live to two to three hundred years old, and witches can only live to sixty to seventy years old even if nothing unexpected happens.
Nowadays, there are few people who live to see their death, but for most people in large families with relatively long lifespans, choosing witchcraft means dying early, which means they will have to face the separation of life and death at an early age.
"It's okay, I have it. Brother Qing gave it to me."
Jiang Rong also saw Xuan's concerns, and summoned a moth with a body of fire with her right hand.
"Is this the body of the Fire Spirit?"
Yan Fang was very surprised when he saw it. He could tell that this fire moth was not a physical entity, but a being similar to a painting spirit or a ghost.
Originally a living being, it died in flames, which gave rise to this special ghost that can control flames. In later legends, it is called a fire ghost, and generally carries a very strong aura of resentment and evil.
This fire moth is different. It has a spiritual glow on its body and is very pure. I think it will not have much impact on the human body.
“Well, Brother Yan, your knowledge is indeed extraordinary. The characteristics of Wu are very special and can also feed back to the human body, so I will not be affected.”
Jiang Rong nodded, a little surprised at Yan Fang's insights. Generally speaking, few people knew about this kind of rare knowledge, let alone a special moth, and Yan Fang directly mentioned the word "fire spirit".
Since the primitive energy of the ancient times is still chaotic and the spiritual energy has not yet emerged, this special spirit, which is beneficial to sorcerers and has little harm, is the first time that the people of the Bear Tribe have seen it, and there will never be a second example.
The dance of the fire moth is not particularly magical, nor can it perform any powerful witchcraft.
The significance is extraordinary, representing a direction for future development and the prototype of cultivation. The second leader of the tribe, who was from the Fire Feather tribe, wanted to spend a huge price to get it from Qing and study it carefully when he knew about it.
And this thing is kept secret in the clan.
If Xuan had not been recognized by the Huoyu clan leader, Jiang Rong's mother, and Yan Fang had not been recognized by Qing, she would not have said it.
Qing met Wu when he was twelve years old. At that time, he accompanied his mother to visit relatives in other tribes and maintain contact with other tribes.
Qing was separated from the team due to an accident. At that time, he foolishly made a bonfire outside and waited for his family.
Just then, a moth flew over and danced over the campfire.
At the beginning, Qing didn't know what moths were. He had never seen one before and just thought that the moths were playing.
Seeing the moths flying around in the flames and then dancing around within three meters of the bonfire, the young man at heart also played with the moths and ran around.
When the moth finally flew straight into the fire and never came out, Qing felt very sad.
Not wanting to wait for the bonfire and food to attract strange beasts that are not afraid of fire, when Qing is in danger, Wu, who has turned into a fire spirit, comes out to protect him and drives away the strange beasts.
I don’t know if it’s because Qing danced with her, perhaps completing some kind of mysterious ritual, or because Qing was the first person she saw when she was reborn for the second time.
Wu has been very close to Qing since then, even though Qing is just a very weak human to her.
