This is a ten-year-old girl.
The skin is pale, the hair is messy like withered grass, and the facial features are very large, which looks very rough. She is closer to the human beings in the usual cognition, and does not have the strange characteristics of the adult living people.
She woke up from the dry grass, and found that she was lying in a simple shack in an unfamiliar environment, except for the half-dead ghost beast beside her.
"you're awake?"
A figure suddenly appeared outside the shack, it was the legendary Northerner. The little girl was startled, baring her teeth and claws, screaming and putting on a defensive posture.
"Do you understand?"
"Can't speak the common language?"
"Tsk, trouble!"
Gu Yu frowned, then stretched out his hand to knock her unconscious, and sat by the shack thinking deeply. When the other party was in a coma, he had already read the memory and knew all about it.
Among the mountains in southern Xinjiang, there are said to be three hundred and sixty villages, all of which have the same blood.
Their ancestors evolved from unknown things, and the race itself does not know how to practice, but it has a special talent, which is to stimulate the blood by devouring the creatures of the yin and earth, so as to obtain various supernatural powers.
There is a sacred tree in southern Xinjiang, called Wuha, "can connect to the underworld, impeach all ghosts, and kill ghosts with a stick. According to legend, this tree is feared by all ghosts, and they compete to use it as a weapon, but they hate it. Evil spirits..."
Ghosts are the ghostly creatures in their eyes.
Every few generations, a child is born in the group, who is connected with the gods of this tree. This child will be trained as a witch ancestor, who will take care of the sacred tree and abbot the grand sacrifice.
The so-called great sacrifice is what Gu Yu saw: the ancestor Wu summoned some demonic beasts for the living people to eat.
It is this bloody and brutal method that makes the living people continue from generation to generation, and can effectively fight back when facing the peeping northerners.
And those guys who have obtained supernatural powers will change more or less in form. As for this little girl, her name is Tuyi, and she is a no-brainer who knows nothing.
He felt that this method might be useful for tempering the body, so he wanted to study the process of Shengmin's acquisition of supernatural powers. There was a ready-made test product in front of him, but the problem was that he couldn't communicate!
The other party is very stupid in all aspects. If he always reads consciousness, he will become an idiot after a long time.
"..."
He compared the IQs of the two, and between letting the other party learn the common language and learning the native language himself, he simply chose the latter.
…
The wilderness is desolate and uninhabited, and a river meanders through it, seeming to divide the gray-yellow land into two.
This is the southwest of Zhenyang Kingdom, and the northwest of Southern Xinjiang. It is separated from the grassland by a natural barrier. You have to walk through the wilderness and then cross the mountains before you can see people again.
"Da da!"
"Da da!"
The sound of horseshoes came, and two mountain-climbing ponies slowly appeared by the river. Gu Yu was in front, and Tuyi was behind, his body was imprisoned by the magic spell, and the Yin beast was suspended by a rope, slapping the horse's buttocks flickeringly.
"Okay, let's rest!"
Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Yu got off his horse, built a straw hut, and carried the little girl down again. After Tuyi's initial fear, now only full of resentment remained, staring at him without saying a word.
"Eat?"
Holding the poor Yin beast in his hands, he coaxed it like a strange millet, "I haven't eaten for three days, aren't you hungry?"
"..."
Tuyi looked at the Yin Beast, and Pia turned his head.
Gu Yu smiled, sitting quietly and practicing on his own.
Soon the night came, and Tucuo sat in the hut, feeling pitifully weak and helpless. She thought she would start again after dawn like before, but the guy sat for three days without even opening his eyes.
"..."
Tuyi had long lost his energy and was dying of hunger. Just when he thought he was going to die, the guy opened his eyes slowly and asked, "Do you want to eat?"
She couldn't resist and could only nod her head.
"That's right, but you can't eat now, you have to adjust your body."
Gu Yu rubbed her head, showing a kind smile, like a demon alive.
In the next few days, Tuyi slept after eating, and ate after sleeping, and then was forced to practice some strange movements, which are said to enhance endurance and persistence.
After nearly a month like this, her spirit and body had reached a peak state, and Lao Gu came over with that Yin beast. This guy has also reached the peak after he has taken good care of him.
"Eat it!"
"..."
Tuyi silently picked up the Yin Beast, and in front of him, bit the rabbit-like neck fiercely.
"Chirp!"
The Yin Beast let out a scream, and soon died.
Tui's mouth was full of blood, his head was blank, and he tore from the neck to the fur-wrapped body, bloody internal organs, eagle-like eyes, and snake-like tail.
Gu Yu stood in front of him, looking at her quietly.
Not long after, the Yin Beast was swallowed up, including its head and brain. Xu is the gene flowing in the blood, Tuyi didn't feel uncomfortable, but was very happy.
She wiped the blood from her face, looked up at Gu Yu, and just when she was about to open her mouth, she suddenly felt a tremor all over her body.
"ah!"
She suddenly fell to the ground, only to feel a hot current gushing out of her body, crazily washing every nerve and muscle, she couldn't bear the pain.
She pulled the grass stalks on the ground, grasped the protruding stones, her hands were dripping with blood, like a little animal struggling to die. It didn't know how long it took before the pain gradually subsided, and Tuyi also passed out.
When she woke up, she found that she was lying on a soft grass bed, surrounded by wind and rain, and it turned out to be a simple wooden house.
"you're awake?"
A familiar questioning voice sounded, and that figure reappeared.
"Me, what am I like now?"
"See for yourself!"
Gu Yu flicked in the air, holding a water mirror and handed it to her.
Tuyi took a look, Xu Shi Yin Beast's rank was not high, and there was no change, but a pair of eyes, like a falcon, were round and big, the whites of the eyes turned dark yellow, and the pupils looked like two spots of ink, showing a coldness and sharpness.
"that's all?"
She was very disappointed.
"It's not bad, you try facing it."
Gu Yu threw a mountain rabbit, Tuyi didn't know, so he stared at it fiercely. As a result, the mountain rabbit kicked on all fours and was very frightened. When it finally stretched its neck, it died.
"You have a pair of eyes, you can directly attack the soul, and those whose strength is lower than yours can't withstand a few breaths. Of course, you are also very poor."
He said a few words of comfort, and then said: "By the way, have you noticed that there is something extra in your body?"
"Um?"
Tuyi was taken aback for a moment, felt it carefully, and said in surprise: "It seems that there is more energy."
"Remember, that is the foundation of your strength!"
Gu Yu taught earnestly like an old lady, and he was quite happy in his heart.
In fact, the supernatural powers obtained by Shengmin are second to none. The most important thing is that they obtained Yin Qi in this way!
Maybe even they themselves don't know the reason, but Gu Yu has insight into everything: because the ancestors of Shengmin have half of the blood of Yintu!
They devoured humans and Yin beasts, forcibly fused their genes, stimulated their blood vessels, and thus improved themselves.
Tuyi ate low-grade yin beasts, but his physical fitness had been multiplied several times, and he had also obtained a small supernatural power. This test sample gave Gu Yu a faint idea:
If you want to harden your body, you must first abide by the rules of the longevity world. Since Shengmin can do it, he can also use some special and powerful creatures to improve his body in a similar way!
