Chapter 213: The Honest Child
"Oh, uh-huh."
The little boy looked up at Bai Tian and gave him a sincere and honest smile, then shook Bai Tian's hand and stepped back to the adult.
It was obvious during the day that the man opposite didn't want the boy to get close to him, after all, he was an outsider.
But this child's smile is very contagious, he looks very honest and courageous...
"Daytime." Su Ling's shouting came from the old house.
Run back immediately during the day.
Su Ling just ran out from inside, her face full of excitement and shock: "Look, that child can absorb power!"
Bai Tian was stunned and walked into the old wooden house. Although the light in the house was very dark, he could still see that the silicone child in the underworld was actually emitting a faint light.
The glow is actually due to the surge of power!
It was amazing that the power of the underworld kept gathering on the silicone child. However, the silicone child lay there motionless, with its eyes always wide open, looking a little creepy.
Su Ling was very excited: "During the day, do you think he will absorb the power and then really become a human... Oh no, become a ghost like me."
Bai Tian frowned. If what Su Ling said was true, then this child would be the first ghost to be formed in the underworld on its own.
Does it take so many people’s souls to form a ghost in the underworld?
It took the souls of thousands, even tens of thousands, of people to condense into a child this small, and it's still incomplete. How many people would have to die to condense a truly complete ghost?
Then Bai Tian thought again, since the emergence of the Yin and Yang worlds, many people must have died, but he didn't see the black and white beads come out to gather other ghosts.
I'm afraid the appearance of this silicone child isn't just related to the numerous souls, it might also be related to environmental factors...
However, the silicone child only absorbed the power for a very short time, about half an hour, and then he became motionless again.
Su Ling stepped forward again, picked up the child, and squeezed him hard: "Bai Tian, I really like this little thing."
Soon Su Ling screamed again, "Ah Bai Tian, he released power to me, I can absorb it."
Bai Tian was shocked. Could this child be an energy storage? A filter?
Su Ling lay down excitedly, holding the child in her arms: "I will practice here for a while during the day."
Seeing her enter the state of cultivation, Bai Tian was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She would cultivate for several years at a time, and he was so tired of waiting.
Forget it, it's a good opportunity to stay here for a while. Firstly, I can study how to make animal hide scrolls, and secondly, I can study the war here...
Early the next morning, the little boy came running over.
Bai Tian smiled at him and then began to busy herself with rebuilding the old wooden house. This wooden house was too old and would leak when it rained, and there were many bugs inside.
The little boy also helped, chattering something non-stop, but unfortunately I couldn't understand him during the day.
Bai Tian knew that the tribe excluded him, so he never thought about joining the tribe. Of course, he still pretended to go hunting, but he always went up the mountain alone.
The little boy came to see Bai Tian almost every day, always with a simple smile on his face.
After a few days of contact, Bai Tian found out that the little boy's name was "Chi You".
The pronunciation of the word "Chiyou" left Bai Tian a little confused. Although he had very little memory of Earth, he still remembered the great demon Chiyou.
But shouldn’t Chiyou be from the same era as Huangdi?
According to the time calculation, even if Fuxi is no longer around, it is not yet the era of Huangdi.
Moreover, this place is quite far from Yancheng. This world is really too big. To walk from here to Yancheng would take at least 10 to 20 years, and in the process one would have to cross countless mountains and forests and encounter ferocious beasts. It is not that easy.
However, Bai Tian did not dwell on this issue. After all, Fuxi had it before, Di Jun had it too, so if Chi You came along, he wouldn't care...
About half a month later, at dusk.
Chi You came over again, his face didn't look very good, and he kept chattering to Bai Tian.
Bai Tian only roughly understood a little bit. He frowned and said, "Chi You, are you saying that the tribe is going to fight again?"
Chi You nodded and walked out of the house. During the day, he followed him out and saw that the tribal troops were gathering.
This made Bai Tian sigh. Their war was too brutal and would lead the tribe to destruction.
Although this tribe was large, it was not strong enough to withstand years of war. The death of thousands of people at a time was a terrible thing for any tribe.
Even now, during the day, no one knows why they are fighting.
The resources here are actually very rich. There are many prey in the mountains and forests behind, and crops can be grown in the basin. However, there are relatively few water sources here, with only two small rivers, but it is enough for normal life.
I have been here for so long, and I haven't seen the tribe being attacked by any wild beasts during the day. It can be said that the living environment here is quite stable.
War, war, what are they fighting for?
Bai Tian sighed and asked in the language of Chi You's tribe, "Chi You, do you know what they are fighting about?"
Worried that Chi You wouldn't understand, he spoke and gestured during the day.
Chi You thought for a moment and then ran away. Bai Tian was stunned. Why did this kid run away?
After a while, Chi You came back and ran to Bai Tian. He opened his right hand and held a white stone.
Bai Tian's heart trembled instantly, and he hurriedly took the white stone to explore it.
It really contains power!
Different from the previous white ore, the power contained in this white stone is very peaceful, more like a spirit stone!
"Chiyou, are you saying they are fighting over this?" Bai Tian asked in a raised voice.
Chi You nodded, mumbling something. When he realized Bai Tian couldn't understand him, he jumped back two steps and started punching.
This completely shocked Bai Tian. It meant that the people here had already begun to learn how to practice cultivation, and they had discovered the wonders of this spirit stone!
No wonder they would fight. This was a matter of life and death, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to fight them!
Bai Tian glanced at the troops gathering in the distance, swallowed his throat, and whispered: "Chi You, do you know where this thing is?"
Chi You shook his head, not knowing whether he didn't understand or didn't know.
Bai Tian made up his mind and walked towards the team with the spirit stone.
If the war is really for spirit stones, he has to participate because he also wants spirit stones!
Although the power of the spirit stone may not be of much use to his cultivation, it can be used to assist in alchemy, to assist in making scrolls, etc. At worst, it can be used to assist in making weapons.
When they saw Bai Tian coming, someone in the assembled team shouted in dissatisfaction.
Bai Tian didn't intend to be vague with the other party. As he walked forward, his body slowly floated up and he walked in the air.
What Bai Tian didn't expect was that after those people were stunned for a moment, they actually knelt on one knee in front of him...
