Overcome the catastrophe

Ling Zihan patted his little cousin's little paw away, and continued to ask curiously: "What is Kailing?"

"Everyone can open their spirits when they are eight years old, but they need special sacred stones and magic circles to open them." Pan Shi said with a smile, "There is a sacred stone in the ancestral hall of our village, which is in charge of by my uncle. , he is a wizard and will try to form a formation. There are no people like Uncle in many villages, so they can only pay a lot of money to ask the adults of the Dark Temple to open the spirits of the children in the village. I can only be a dark slave. Once the spirit is opened, ordinary people have to save money for many years, we are okay, my uncle will help those who open the spirit to save every time, so they will not go bankrupt."

Ling Zihan was at a loss when he heard it, feeling that there was a lot of information, and the little cousin spoke in a messy manner, so he could only ask bit by bit, slowly figuring things out.

This world is called the Dark Continent, where force is paramount, there is no country, and the highest authority is called the Temple of Darkness.The weather is like this all year round, gloomy and gloomy, otherwise it would not have such a name.

Panshi didn't know if there were any cities on the mainland. He only knew that they lived in a village. There were some villages nearby and a town further away. Prey and collected medicinal materials, and buy some necessities for life.In addition, if people want to practice, they have to apply to the gods distributed in the temple. After the test, after the spirit is opened, they have a martial soul of lower rank or above, and then they can obtain the corresponding elementary martial arts.There are also those who want to practice secretly at home, but they can only obtain ordinary martial arts that are not top-notch. It is even more difficult to obtain mental methods, and it is even more difficult to match their own martial arts.

As for martial souls, everyone on this continent has martial souls, but most of them are useless martial souls with low aptitude and difficult to cultivate. Only high-grade martial souls have the value of cultivation.Martial spirits are divided into nine levels: low-grade, middle-grade, high-grade, super-grade, extreme-grade, peerless, celestial-grade, holy-grade, and divine-grade. It used to be that those above the highest level were just legends. Anyway, Pan Shi had never heard of that kind of high-level martial spirit appearing on this continent.

Pan Shi's father, Pan Ya, possesses a middle-grade martial spirit and is a heavy axe. Although his combat power is strong, his development potential is not enough, so he entered the Dark Palace to practice for five years. back.Panshi's goal is to enter the dark hall to practice in the future, and eventually become an envoy of the gods. From now on, he will sit in one side and let his parents and relatives live a good life.

Ling Zihan listened with gusto.Looking at the tiger-headed little cousin clenched his fists, expressing his determination and looking forward to the future, he nodded with a smile.

Panshi was looked at by his little cousin with trusting and admiring eyes. He was immediately full of pride and enthusiasm. He stood on the ground and danced, and repeatedly stated that he would take care of his little cousin in the future and never let anyone bully him.

Before he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and Dr. Xie and Mrs. Xie came in, followed by Xie Yin.Seeing Ling Zihan sitting on the bed in good spirits, the three of them were overjoyed, rushed to the bedside immediately, and asked with concern: "Xiaohan, how are you? Are you feeling better?"

Ling Zihan nodded, and said obediently, "I feel much better."

"Okay, okay." Xie Yin couldn't help crying with joy, "My good boy, you must be hungry, mother will cook."

Doctor Cheng sat down by the bed, pulled his little grandson into a hug, held his tiny wrist with his right hand, breathed a ray of energy in, and checked his physical condition.

Pan Shi threw himself into Xie's arms, "Grandma, I'm here to see my brother."

"Okay, Shitou." Xie patted the grandson's back kindly, "Your brother is not in good health yet, and it's going to be cold today. You can spend more time talking with your brother in the room, but don't dare to come Go outside and run around."

"I know." Pan Shi leaned on Xie's body and said excitedly, "Just now my brother ran into the yard, and I came here to pull him back into the house and let him rest on the bed."

"Oh?" Doctor Cheng was a little surprised when he heard this, "Xiaohan, did you get out of bed by yourself?"

"Well, after lying down for too long, I felt a little headache, so I went out for a walk." Ling Zihan looked like a good boy, "I didn't go out of the yard, so I hid behind the door and looked outside."

Doctor Chen was very distressed for the little grandson who hadn't gotten out of bed much since he was born, and quickly comforted him: "It's still warm today, so it's okay to go out for a few steps. The cold season is coming soon, so you can't go out at that time, lest you Sick again."

"Oh." Ling Zihan blinked, "Grandpa, what is cold season?"

Dr. Cheng put his arms around him, and said with a smile: "There are two seasons here: cold and warm. The first half of the year is the warm season, and the greater half of the year is the cold season. Now is the warm season, and it will be the cold season in about ten days. You are You were born in the cold season, so your mother named you Xi Han."

Pan Shi hurriedly said: "My mother collected medicine in the mountains, and later she gave birth to me on a big rock, so she named me Shi."

"Yes." Xie stroked his grandson's head, "You were born on the mountain, and it was freezing cold at that time, and we were all afraid that something would happen to you, but you are a good-looking kid, and you are quite strong. , let your parents worry less."

Pan Shi laughed happily, "I will always strive for success."

Doctor Xi was afraid that his little grandson would be sad, so he quickly comforted him: "Xiaohan is also very good, he didn't bother your mother at all when he was born, he is a good boy."

Xie Wei nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, Xiaohan is a good boy."

It turns out that it is very difficult for descendants of different races like them with mixed races to have offspring. Often, either the child dies young or the mother collapses to death. Very few people like the Xie family can reproduce for a lifetime. This is also because his family not only has witch doctors, And wizards.Ling Zihan also understood later that his father was a pure human being, and it was a big accident for his mother to conceive him, and childbirth is even more like a hell, if it weren't for the full protection of the doctor and the brothers, his mother would be alive. He will definitely not be able to save his life.He was probably too thin, so he was born very quickly and didn't put his mother in too much danger, so the doctor and his wife said he was a "good boy", but when he came into this world, he was congenitally incomplete. Always sick and crooked, several times near death.It took Xi's family three years to find all the materials with great difficulty, and asked Xie to perform the forbidden black witchcraft to summon the soul. Only then did Ling Zihan's main soul, which had been immersed in the chaotic state, be awakened, and his consciousness was finally fully awake.

As time passed day by day, the cold season came, the sky became darker and gloomy, the dripping water outside the house turned into ice, the cold wind was biting, and black-gray snowflakes danced all over the sky.

All the houses in the village were inspected when they were being built, and magic circles were set up in the foundations, so as long as the doors and windows were closed and a piece of fire spar or the crystal nucleus of a fire monster was placed in the house, the whole building could be transformed. The house is very warm.

Every year, people work hard during the warm season, store the necessities such as grain, vegetables, meat, drinking water, and firewood needed to survive the cold season, and then stay at home and never go out.At such times, only cultivators would go out to practice, but ordinary people just want to live in peace.

For Ling Zihan, this cold season is very good. Both Dr. Chen and Mr. Chen stay at home all day and don't go out anymore, which is just convenient for him to ask various questions.

Chen Yu is the twin brother of Chen doctor. His mother died in childbirth because of giving birth to them. Just after he was ten years old, his father, who was a mine slave, also had an accident and was buried underground by the collapsed mine.The two depended on each other for life, but luckily they both awakened the shamanistic martial spirit, the older brother practiced medicine, and the younger brother practiced witchcraft, but they were lucky enough to grow up and become relatives.However, Chuan's wife had a blood collapse when giving birth to the child, and both mother and child died. He never remarried after that, so he treated his elder brother's child as his own child, and lived like this for most of his life.

Today, in the village where they live, Chen Yun has become a recognized wise man.He is in charge of the sacred stone, and he only collects basic materials when opening the spirits of the children. He also teaches the villagers how to read and organizes them to practice martial arts in their spare time. If everyone goes hunting together, he will distribute the prey after returning.Although life is very difficult, but because of the 羥筮, their village is the most stable place within a hundred miles.

Amidst the whistling of the wind and snow, Ling Zihan was wrapped in thick animal skins, sitting in a warm room, looking up at his elegant and wise uncle, listening to him slowly talk about the composition and history of this world, "Our continent The world I live in is called Feilu Realm..."
