The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

"Starting tonight, Wenli will never owe anyone anything."

Licking Wenli's wound sadly, the other Wenli is obviously more emotional and has a weaker personality.

But it's not surprising when you think about it. After all, this Wenli has inherited more of Wenli's original emotional side, which is what Wenli really expects.

"My half body, my elder brother..."

"May your soul be accepted by the mountains, and one day be reborn with a new attitude."

"I don't wait for years, I don't wait for reincarnation, and I will wait for my brother's return under the name of 'Red Leopard'!"

Wenli, who was officially renamed "Red Leopard", sang rhythmically, but the meaning of the words could only be understood by Pei Wende who had practiced "Tian Er Tong".

Tianertong is a supernatural power of wisdom, which can indirectly know the thoughts of sentient beings, and the cause and effect of suffering, joy, good and evil in the thoughts of all beings through sound.

At the same time, practitioners who practice Tianertong can also understand all the dharmas taught by the Buddhas of the ten directions in words, without mixing with their own thoughts and delusions, without getting into the pit of words, and knowing all the grammar in the world.

To put it simply, today's Pei Wende is born with a "universal translation" function.

Even if it was the sacrificial rite that Chi Bao recited as the "son of the mountains", he could clearly understand the deep meaning and what Fang's actions meant.

This is a special memorial ceremony, and it is also a symbol of the red leopard's rebirth.

From then on, his fate of "killing his mother and father" will die with Wenli's death, and will be replaced by the birth of a mountain god who has broken free from cause and effect.

This newborn mountain god is the son of the mountains, the master of the birds and beasts, and the master of the flames in the mountains and forests.

Wherever wildfires and prairie fires pass, they are all under the authority of the Red Leopard.

According to Pei Wende's understanding, the newly born red leopard is actually a mountain god that symbolizes "disaster".

This is determined by his origin and experience, and it is also the result of the mountain ghost's resentment.

The only good thing is that the red leopard who is in charge of this power is relatively weak in character, but it complements this calamity force that symbolizes wildfires.

......................................................................................................

After a long time, when Chi Bao stopped chanting the sacrificial rites, the torrential rain seemed to have finally stopped.

The wolf demon still knelt on the ground, but it no longer shed tears, only the head buried deeply in its neck indicated its uneasy mood now.

The huge falcon still held its head high, but the loss and loneliness could not be concealed in those human eyes.

As Wenli's partner, the two of them never confuse Wenli with Chibao.

Even though the two came from the same origin, and their memories and experiences are exactly the same, the fact that their personalities are so different is indeed a fact that cannot be ignored no matter what.

Wenli is Wenli, the son of the mountains who has carried everything and ended all grievances and hatreds on himself.

The red leopard is the red leopard, the half-body who pinned Wenli's lifelong hope and is destined to fulfill the post of mountain god in the future.

"Let's be sad and change!"

After hesitating for a long time, Pei Wende could only use such meaningless words to admonish the parties involved.

"..."

Turning his head to look at Pei Wende, Chi Bao didn't say much, but looked at the giant bear with a human face who couldn't hold back anymore.

"I know what you want to ask. Aunt Shui and the others are fine. They are just solving some mess left by my mother."

Since everyone knew about his background, Chi Bao naturally had no reason to hide other things.

Therefore, in the following description, Pei Wende and the giant human-faced bear learned some details that were not mentioned before.

For example, what happened to the sacrificial ceremony in Toyota Village?

As mentioned above, the mountain ghost cursed all the villagers in Toyota Village before he died.

At that time, Toyota Village benefited from the protection of mountain ghosts, and the number of households had already exceeded [-]. It is absolutely impossible that there were only a few initial villagers.

So, where did the disappearing villagers go?

Pei Wende's question was answered in Chi Bao's mouth—the villagers were all frightened out of their wits.

Not everyone can bear the despair of eternal hunger and immortality.

After spending the first few years, the villagers who endured hunger all the time tried their best to kill themselves, but none of them succeeded.

It is because the mountain ghost does not allow them to die, and the mountain ghost wants them to accept this punishment forever.

It wasn't until one day that an outsider strayed into Toyota Village and was assimilated by the curse of Toyota Village by mistake. Only then did the villagers realize that there were "more" people.

The curse left by the mountain ghost does not seem to have much wisdom, it simply operates according to certain rules.

Whenever an outsider is assimilated by Toyota Village, there will be an extra quota in Toyota Village—a quota that allows the villagers to die.

The first villager who realized this stepped out of Toyota Village, and was relieved as he wished.

The villager's soul dissipated, and his flesh and blood merged into the rural road outside Toyota Village...

The reddish-brown road that Pei Wende saw when they entered Toyota Village was made of the flesh and blood of hundreds of villagers in Toyota Village.

Because its flesh and blood carry the curse of the mountain ghost, it presents a form similar to the "blood of ghosts and gods".

The rest of the villagers who were unwilling to die completely abandoned their humanity, and they did not hesitate to turn into monsters to fight against the curse of the mountain ghost.

The sacrificial ceremony of the mountain god was born from this.

The villagers who were unwilling to give up hope discovered that not all outsiders would be assimilated by the curse.

On the contrary, outsiders who can finally integrate into Toyota Village are a minority after all.

The vast majority of outsiders will become living corpses because they cannot bear the torture and pain suffered during the assimilation process.

At this time, as long as these outsiders are dragged to the place where the corpses of the mountain ghosts are buried, and their flesh and blood are used to feed the dead mountain gods, they can control the power of the curse to a certain extent.

At the very least, the first batch of villagers can control their own hunger within a relatively controllable range, so as not to be driven crazy by the eternal hunger.

In other words, the first villagers of Toyota Village raised an evil god in a way that was almost like raising Gu.

And this is also an important reason why Wenli had never dared to enter Toyota Village by force.

In addition to looking for a way to break the curse of the mountain ghost, Wenli is also worried that once the evil god born in the mountain ghost is angered, it will become a terrible disaster that will sweep the entire Xiangzhou.

If it weren't for this time that the water demon ran away from home with his two children and came to the boundary of Toyota Village, Wenli might not have been able to make this determination.

However, the inheritance memory from the mountain ghost convinced him that even if the evil god really went berserk, the water demon would be able to handle it completely.
