King of Beasts Chapter 63: The temptation to return to the village
Lu Ran observed the four people closely.
They are all in their early twenties, with healthy wheat-colored complexions. Regardless of whether they are male or female, tall, short, fat or thin, they all have certain muscles. Even the sassy Orion sister who opened the mouth looks extremely untouchable. The kind that can kill five scumbags with one punch.
Facing the female hunter's question, Lu Ran showed what she thought was a friendly smile: "Your clothes look a bit familiar to me."
"My grandfather also has similar clothing. He was also a hunter in Lujia Village in his early years."
"But later, our family moved to the city and rarely went back."
After Lu Ran finished speaking, the four of them were all startled. The strongest young man among them said unexpectedly: "Fellow? What is your grandfather's name?"
"My old man's name is Lu Hai." Lu Ran said.
"This name... sounds a bit familiar." The female hunter pondered slightly.
"There are many people named Lu Hai in Lujia Village, but the one who moved out... Village Chief Lu Hai?!" Suddenly, a lean hunter thought of something and said in surprise.
When he said this, several people quickly remembered that the village chiefs of Lujia Village were elected based on their hunting skills. The folk customs here are strong and there are hunting activities every year. Therefore, each generation of village chiefs is very well-known, and children are He grew up listening to their stories, and his prestige is far beyond that of the head of a village in other villages.
These people have heard the name of Village Chief Luhai since they are not too far apart. There is indeed such a village chief in Lujia Village. Because his children are doing well, he moved to the city. According to the elders, Lu The children of Village Chief Hai often donated money to the village and even built primary schools and health centers.
"That's what you are talking about. He did serve as the village chief. My old man got sick in his later years. The medical conditions in the village were not good, so he had to be sent to a big city for recuperation. As time went by, our family settled outside. "Lu Ran explained.
"Are you the grandson of Village Chief Lu Hai?!" Several people who were originally cautious suddenly showed shock when they heard that Lu Ran announced his family name, and it matched their memories, and looked at Lu Ran. , and a little more cordiality. As the saying goes, when a fellow villager meets a fellow villager, tears well up in his eyes.
Infinite City No. 3 spans seven provinces. Under such circumstances, meeting each other is considered fate, especially since Lu Ran’s elders are all celebrities in the village!
“What a fellow countryman!”
"Hahaha, sit down, come on, you're welcome, let's chat while we eat, we'll treat you." The strongest young man said proudly.
"Is it true, then I'm not welcome!" Lu Ran was surprised when he heard that he was able to enjoy the meal.
"I didn't expect to meet the grandson of Village Chief Lu Hai in Infinite City..." the female Orion said with emotion:
"Well, let me introduce you first, this is Lu Yi." The huntress first pointed to the strongest young man and said: "The four of us have now formed a beast-controlling team, and he is the captain. ”
Lu Yi smiled and nodded. Judging from his size, he was indeed the strongest.
"This is Lu Dingding." Then, she introduced the lean man with a smile: "It's not Lu Dingding, it's Lu Dingding."
"Lu Bing, shut up!" The lean young man looked angry, angry that others called him nicknames, and he was not the age to wear crotchless pants, so he was still yelling.
"Uh..." Lu Ran could only twitch the corner of his mouth, trying not to laugh. This name... his parents are really talented!
"My name is Lu Bing, and the last one, his name is Lu Wu. He is the fifth in the family, so we all call him Xiao Wu." Lu Bing pointed to the shortest young man among them, who was almost 1.6 meters tall.
"What do you call me?" She finally asked Lu Ran.
"Hello, my name is Lu Ran. I didn't expect...that there would be so many beastmasters in Lujia Village." Lu Ran said.
"We are not the only ones." Xiao Wule said: "Most of the young people in the village have become beast masters. There are dozens of them, and they have all passed the novice trial. We are just one of them."
"Pfft..." Lu Ran almost burst out and said, "What, dozens of them??"
Lu Ran would not be so surprised even if there were so many beastmasters in one county, but Lujia Village is indeed just a small village with a small population. It seems that the Orion inheritance has really added points to the village. Quite a few, everyone has the talent to control beasts!
"Haha, there are quite a lot of people. In fact, in the first, second, and third batches, some people in our village have become beast masters..." Lu Yi said regretfully: "But even though there are many people, we are also relatively unlucky."
"How do you say it?" Lu Ran asked.
"In the first generation, everyone was just trying to figure things out, and there were a lot of pitfalls, so our chosen eldest brother had an accident not long after. He was the son of the current village chief, and he was very good at hunting. In the second generation, we have two more royal guards. The beast master was selected, but unfortunately..."
"The same is true for the third generation. Everyone is well prepared and enters in high spirits, but our village is like a curse. Every beast master can't live long, **** it." Lu Yi couldn't help but swear.
"Maybe it's also related to the fact that our people love to fight with each other in the secret realm and like to hunt in teams of the same race..." Lu Dingding touched his nose. The disadvantage of the strong folk customs is this, it is easy to seek death.
In addition, the three generations of beast masters in Lujiacun all formed a team together, so if one person got into trouble, the entire team would be wiped out.
"This..." Lu Ran didn't expect it to be like this at all. He couldn't help but said: "In other words, does our Lujia Village only have fourth-generation beast masters now?"
"That's right." Lu Yi nodded and said, "However, although those eldest brothers and sisters are gone, each of them prepared a lot of resources for the village when they were alive."
"So the fourth batch of beast masters has arrived, and the selected beast masters in the village have been allocated a lot of initial resources. This time, our Lujia Village will definitely rise." Lu Yi looked forward to: "By then, the whole village will Let’s get rich together.”
"Then what are your plans, such as joining the official team, joining a guild, etc." Lu Ran asked.
"No." Lu Bing put his legs together and said: "The village decided to establish its own guild. After all, the traditional customs are here, and it is difficult for young people who have stayed in the village for a long time to integrate into the outside world. It is better for everyone to do it themselves Join the group to stay warm."
"Honestly, hunting in a secret place makes more money than hunting outside."
"Although it is slower than other large guilds, Lujia Village has always worked **** its own. Who is worse than the other?"
"Brother Lu Ran, do you want to join us? If you are the grandson of Village Chief Lu Hai, you should be able to do it. We will find someone to help you upgrade when the time comes." Sister Lu Bing said with a smile.
"Uh... maybe it's not possible. My elders want me to go to Beast Control University first..." Lu Ran said.
"Beast Control University?" Lu Yi said: "It is also a good way out. There are mostly hunters in our village, and there are few people with reading talent. It is difficult to have a college student in more than ten years. It doesn't matter. Since we are from the same village, when the time comes You can also communicate more and come to us if you have any difficulties."
"Yeah." Lu Ran nodded and said: "Brother Lu Yi, please introduce Lujia Village to me. I remember that I haven't been back a few times and have almost forgotten it. When I have time, I will introduce you to Lujia Village. No matter what, you must go and take a look and pay homage to your ancestors."
"This... I'll leave this to Lu Bing to introduce." Lu Yi smiled awkwardly, feeling that he had not introduced it well.
Next to me, Lu Bing rolled his eyes and said, "You have forgotten everything about your ancestors!"
She looked at Lu Ran affectionately and introduced: "Lujia Village has a long history, maybe it can be traced back four to five thousand years ago."
"This is too long!" Lu Ran was stunned.
"Well, that's how the legend spread, but no one can say whether it lasted so long. Anyway, the village has moved several times, and the village's history has been interrupted again and again..." Lu Bing coughed dryly:
"Isn't totem culture popular at that time? Our village actually has its own totem, which is a sacred deer. The elders in the village say that we can inherit it until now because of the protection of the sacred deer."
"Even now, there is still a temple in the village to worship the sacred deer."
"However, this culture seems to have been discontinued in the past hundred years. Except for some old people, young people rarely go to worship the sacred deer, and they are forced to go there." Lu Bing said: "By the way, we are called Lujia Village. It was also because of this sacred deer, deer, Lu, that it was transformed."
Lu Bing didn’t know that when she was talking about this, Lu Ran’s heart was already in an uproar~IndoMTL.com~ and her legs began to shake unconsciously.
Fuck.
He knew that there was an inexplicable relationship between the sacred deer's broken horns and Lujiacun.
The result is true.
Totem culture?
Generally speaking, most of the totems believed by ancient tribes should be fake and fictitious, but how does Lu Ran feel that this one believed in by Lujia Village is real...
Isn’t the official statement true? Supernatural powers did exist in ancient Blue Star!
And now, the spiritual energy is resurrected!
"Our village...why does it use the sacred deer as its totem?" Lu Ran suppressed his surprise and asked.
"This...I don't know." Lu Bing shrugged and said: "Maybe some old people in the village still know some history, but I guess the probability is not high, after all, it has been so long."
“It’s not easy to believe in the sacred deer to this day.”
"Okay." Lu Ran nodded. It seemed that he had to go to Lujia Village. He would not feel at ease unless he understood the matter about Shenlu.
"Should we order food..." At this time, Xiao Wu touched his stomach and said.
This restaurant is a self-ordering restaurant. Several people sat and chatted for a long time, but in the end they didn't order a single dish.
"Lu Ran, if you are interested in the history of the village, go back and take a look when you have time. We will introduce you to some respected old people, maybe they can know about it." Lu Bing said: "Xiao Wu is already hungry. Order food first, Lu Ran, and see what you want to eat. Don’t save us crystal coins."
"Okay..." Lu Ran smiled slightly, but at this moment, the restaurant suddenly became noisy.
Someone shouted game terms such as public secret realm, wild boss, and go grab monsters. The restaurant was filled with restlessness for a moment, as if spring had arrived.
