Planeswalker My Plane War

Chapter 177 Hunting 2
What to do about this?
The easiest way is to pretend that you didn't see anything, go back to the camp and go to sleep. Anyway, it's nothing to do with yourself.

The idea was tempting, but immediately dismissed.Judging from the location, the corpse was on their way tomorrow.And this corpse throwing has no technical level.Even Zhang Cheng knew how to throw the corpse in places such as crypts, pits or bushes, so that people and cars passing by would not be able to see it at a glance.And this guy is actually thrown on a high place, the most eye-catching position.
Even if it is hidden tonight, there will be a high probability that Thomas or Conn will find out tomorrow.It's hard to predict what measures the two will take at that time, maybe they will search around carefully, and then find all the corpses hidden in the crypt.

Although Zhang Cheng is not afraid even if he is found out, it is always better not to be found out.

Zhang Cheng sighed, returned to the camp as quickly as possible, and then woke up the two companions in the dream.

The two of them didn't know what happened at first, but when Zhang Cheng told him about the corpse, their expressions immediately changed.

"I've heard that drug dealers throw corpses in the wild..." Thomas looked cautious, "Let's go and have a look. We'll decide whether to call the police or not after we see the situation."

Armed with weapons, the three walked towards the strange corpse under Zhang Cheng's guidance.Without much effort, they came to the small highland where Zhang Cheng had stopped before, and also saw a human body on another highland.The two searched around with binoculars, but found no other suspicious movements, so they walked towards the opposite side together.

Kang En made a gesture to signal Thomas and Zhang Cheng to wait at a distance, and he walked towards the corpse by himself.Thomas didn't object, but stood by with a gun, and Zhang Cheng naturally joined Thomas.

"There are often...criminals throwing corpses here?" Zhang Cheng asked casually.If this is the case, it can only be said that the hero sees the same thing.In this kind of wilderness, it is impossible to say how long it will take for these corpses to be discovered.As long as it takes a while, no one will be able to recognize the identities of these corpses.Similar to Zhang Cheng this time can be said to be an exception among exceptions.

"I've vaguely heard of it," Thomas said. "However, if it wasn't for important people, they wouldn't get this kind of treatment." He said disapprovingly.Obviously, Thomas doesn't care about this kind of thing at all.

A few minutes later, Conn came back from there and made a "let's go" gesture with a blank face.He spoke to Thomas very quickly.Although Zhang Cheng couldn't understand, he could feel that there was no fear or anger in his voice, only a bit of depression, like the complete helplessness of stepping on dog shit on the road.Conn left on his own, but Thomas obviously didn't want to leave.

"What's going on?" Zhang Cheng asked Thomas.

"Not a corpse," Thomas replied.He looked weird. "It's a wizard practicing."

"Wizard?" Zhang Cheng was puzzled.

"Indian wizard," Thomas replied. "As far as I know, their power comes from nature. They often need to go deep into the wilderness and be alone to contact the spirit of nature. But contacting the spirit of nature is not easy, even for wizards. So wizards must Going through these lonely and dangerous journeys, wizards use it as a baptism of mind and body, so as to strengthen their willpower. At the end of these journeys, when wizards feel that the power of their soul and will has reached the limit, they Will drink the psychic potion. Then they will be able to contact the spirit of nature, in this way, the wizard will learn more mysterious knowledge from the spirit of nature, and improve their own power."

What he said was vivid, but Zhang Cheng knew that Thomas was just hearing some hearsay from the APP.

"But wilderness travel is wilderness travel," Zhang Cheng still didn't understand. "Why does he lie on the ground when he sleeps?" If you hate modern civilization, you don't need a sleeping bag, but at least you need a blanket, right?This blanket has been around since ancient times.

"He's been lying down all day." Thomas had a serious face when he spoke. "Don't underestimate this. This is the most dangerous of all Indian wizard practices. The wizard will take off his shirt and lie quietly in the wilderness, waiting for the enlightenment given by the spirit of nature. He will endure the scorching sun, hunger and The torment of thirst until the spirit of nature recognizes his dedication. If this kind of practice fails, he will die! Of course, if he succeeds, the wizard will gain unimaginable power."

"He's just... lying in the scorching sun for a whole day?" Zhang Cheng knew that the sun was uncomfortable.Don't look at it when you are riding a motorcycle, but when you look in the mirror, you know that your body is about to be sunburned and peeled off.

"More than that, I don't eat or drink." Thomas said.He looked envious. "Say, can we bother this great wizard... Maybe he will give us some guidance. Don't underestimate it! The guidance of the great wizard... is definitely something you can't ask for. But if you get angry Great Wizard, give you a curse and you're finished!"

Thomas had a look of worrying about gains and losses.Obviously, on the one hand, he has great curiosity about this supernatural ability, and on the other hand, he has natural fear.

"Well, I'd better go and have a look." In the end, Thomas still made a decision. "I'll go and have a look first. If I notice that the great wizard is in a bad mood, I'll sneak away. On the contrary, if he seems to be easy to talk to, then I'll try to see if I can get guidance." He looked at Zhang Cheng, as if asking for help. Opinions seem to be talking to themselves. "At least I have to see which great wizard it is, at least I can take a photo."

Thomas handed Zhang Cheng the gun in his hand, and then moved forward with his bare hands.Zhang Cheng held the gun, but felt the voice of the little bear.He took out the card, and the little bear jumped out directly.

"What's the matter?" This was the first time in the past two days that Little Bear wanted to come out.As I said before, the current little bear feels that there may be some kind of danger lurking in this world, and even the whole world may be a trap, so he has been cautiously probing.

"I can feel that person's will." Little Bear said.It squatted on the ground, looking at the place where the wizard was in the distance. "Actually, this is quite remarkable. If this was my original world, maybe I would choose him as my wizard. Or according to the words on Earth, a priest."

"Great spirit... can have witches?"

"Of course you can." Bear replied. "However, the great spirit does not have the authority of the priesthood, so the witch can't just find one, it must be very good. It is better to be short than to be indiscriminate, otherwise it will be a loss. The more witches there are, the more loss. But this... this person," Little Bear said. "I should choose him. Zhang Cheng," Little Bear suddenly looked over. "Maybe I can try."

During the conversation, Thomas had already run back.He looked a little embarrassed.

"Damn it, it's a good thing I ran fast. Otherwise I would be cursed." He took the gun back from Zhang Cheng's hand. "It's 'Redstone'!" he said. "Sure enough, as I expected, it is said that he is the only great wizard who wants to practice this kind of suicide in this era."

"Redstone? Is that the one we saw on the side of the road last time?"

"Yeah, and he seems to have forgotten to sign for me!" Thomas's expression was a little bit of joy amidst his embarrassment. "I got a photo of the great wizard practicing. This photo is worth at least $50!" he said.Needless to ask, he knew that it was this act of taking pictures that made him offend Hongshi.

"I'm going back first, Zhang Cheng. If you want to try it, I strongly suggest you wait here for a while, at least half an hour. This will give our Mr. Hongshi time to calm down." After finishing speaking, Thomas ran towards the camp with a gun in his hand.

Zhang Cheng thought for a while, then walked towards the top of the high ground.

As seen from afar, Hongshi was lying on the ground peacefully on his back.He didn't wear a feather crown, he didn't wear a top, and he only wore a short skirt-like underwear that covered his lower body. It really looked like it could easily be mistaken for a corpse.Now his soft skin lay on the stone floor.Zhang Cheng knew that these stones looked smooth, but without a blanket as a cushion, it would be hard and uncomfortable to lie on, and some of the bumps could even be painful.

By the moonlight, Zhang Cheng could clearly see the resolute and haggard face of the great Indian wizard.

"Another one?" The great wizard lying on the ground said dissatisfied.He turned his head and saw the person's face clearly through the moonlight. "Hua people?" He suddenly changed to another language and asked. "Visitor?"

"Yes, a tourist passing by by chance. You also understand Chinese?" Zhang Cheng was a little surprised.

"I went to college, with a master's degree." Hongshi replied. "I have taken a foreign language course." He snorted. "Don't think of me as an ignorant savage. I know everything."

I can clearly feel bored from the words, obviously what Thomas did just now greatly offended the great wizard.

"My name is Zhang Cheng." Zhang Cheng said.He felt a little curious, so he sat down on the side and looked at the Indian wizard carefully.After being exposed to the scorching heat, Hongshi's skin was obviously sunburned, and more than that, his chapped lips were enough to show that he really didn't drink water all day.

This is no longer an ordinary concept of cultivation, but closer to self-abuse or suicide.

"You are different from that guy just now." Hongshi's voice was a bit hoarse, and his speaking speed was relatively slow, but he seemed stable and powerful. "What do you want to do here? Do you want to learn the ways of wizards?"

"No, I'm just...they say you're doing a very dangerous practice."

"They're right." Redstone replied.

"They say that you will expose your body to the wilderness, without eating or drinking, until you receive the revelation from the spirit of nature. Have you ever thought that if you have not received the revelation, you will die."

"The path to power is always full of risks." Hongshi replied.

"Don't you think...it's a bit too rash and irresponsible for life to try a theory that has not been verified in this dangerous way? You should try it for the first time, right?"

"No, it's not the first time." Hongshi hesitated and replied. "When I was young, I graduated with a master's degree. When I returned to my hometown, I met an old man by accident. He taught me the way of a wizard. I tried the method he taught and was inspired by the spirit of nature. So now I am firm Believe in the power of the spirit of nature."

"Have you tried this once?" Zhang Cheng hesitated and asked. "Similar to this time... let the body be tortured to the limit?"

"Yes." Redstone replied.

"Have you ever thought that this may not be the inspiration of the spirit of nature, but a hallucination when you are dying? Many people who were seriously injured but were finally rescued mentioned that they had this wonderful hallucination. Like It's a special kind of dream. Other hallucinogens, or poisonous plants or something, can make people have this hallucination."

"I don't know." Hongshi replied after being silent for a long time.Zhang Cheng was somewhat surprised by this answer.

"Have you never considered this question rationally?"

"But I have no choice." Hongshi said. "Just take this as my last attempt at our civilization. Unless there is clear evidence and strength, everything will be irreversible."

Zhang Cheng turned and left without saying a word.

The high ground fell silent again, and Hongshi was alone again.Hunger and thirst began to torment him again, leaving him drowsy.But he knew that it was more important to stay awake under such circumstances.This kind of ritual is inherently dangerous, even in the traditions of Indian wizards, this point has been repeatedly emphasized.Your will must be strong enough and your perseverance must be tough enough to move the spirit of nature.In other words, there is that slight possibility between life and death.

He has persisted for one day, and he also knows that it is impossible for him to survive the next day.Thirst and dehydration, two seemingly innocuous words, weakened him enough one day to easily take his life the next.Before tomorrow night, either he will follow the ancient traditions and get in touch with the spirit of nature in a true sense, and get strength and wisdom from there, or he will die silently in the wilderness like countless losers.

He closed his eyes, and forced himself to concentrate again, to sense nature, to sense the illusory so-called "spiritual sense".As he did so, he suddenly became aware of something beside him.

Not a human being, but a... an indescribable being.

He opened his eyes dumbly, and saw a small beast standing in front of him in the night.It was a dog... no, it was a white bear cub, and in the dark night, its body was shrouded in a strange light.

"Seeker," said the bear suddenly.Hongshi realized that the other party was not speaking in the usual sense, but the consciousness was directly transmitted to his brain. "What are you looking for so hard?"
