Chapter 15 (2/2)
“They all have long living, way of law pa.s.sing shamans, but that doesn’t mean they’re Spiritual Turtles.”
The lady shaman said.
“Then who are the ancestors of the other clans?”
Donford Wu asked again.
“The Wood Deity Jum (Ju Mang), the Water Deity Gongo(Gong Gong), the Fire Deity Zur(Zhu Rong), and the Earth Clan ancestor is the Emperor Xuan Yuan(Xuan Yuan).”
The lady shaman popped out the wooden cork and started drinking a few mouthfuls of water.
This action made Donford Wu extremely surprised. He used this water pouch before, two people drinking from the same bottle in modern terms meant a very intimate action, he wasn’t sure what this meant in this period of time, but since the lady shaman was wearing a mask, he couldn’t see her expression. With suspicion in his heart, he turned to look at the Gold clansmen. A few of them were eating something, they weren’t looking this way, the remaining had startled expressions on their face, this meant that two people drinking from the same water pouch was a very intimate action.
“Did their ancestors also give their control over the laws back to the heavens and earth?”
Donford Wu keeping his composure asked again.
The lady shaman nodded her head.
“I once saw a long time before a human shaped flame flying in the air, inside the flames seemed to be a person.”
Donford Wu was a bit hungry, he picked up a rice patty and started gnawing on it.
“That’s the Fire clan’s Fury Blaze Dance.”
The lady shaman stated.
“Is it the most powerful way of controlling the laws of the Fire clan?”
Donford Wu casually asked.
“Not really, all the Fire clan’s Celestial Masters can use it, it’s a kind of bodily technique.”
The lady shaman said.
“Does the Gold clan have any ways to control the laws to fly?”
Donford Wu asked again.
“There is, our Gold clan has the Lightning Movement of the Winds and Clouds.”
The lady shaman nodded her head, not waiting for Donford Wu to ask again.
“The Water clan has the Weak Water Dragon’s Twirl, the Wood clan has the Bottomless Upward Spreader, and the Earth clan’s Returning To The Heavens And Earth are all bodily techniques that can rise into the air.
“Keep going, keep going, but please more detail, I have seen the Fury Blaze Dance before, so start from the Lightning Movement of the Winds and Clouds.”
Donford Wu was greatly interested in this.
“The Gold clan Celestial Masters can control metals to fly through the air, when moving at quick speeds, thunder would sound, so that’s why it’s called the Lightning Movement of the Winds and Clouds.
The Water clan Celestial Masters can s.h.i.+ft and drive the waters of rivers, lakes and oceans to form a rapid swirling water column to rise into the air. Because the water column’s shape looks very similar to a tornado, that’s why it is called the Weak Water Dragon’s Twirl.
The Wood clan Celestial Masters can make the gra.s.s and trees around them to quickly grow, rising them into the air. Upwards Spreader is a name of a deity tree to their east side, it can grow really high. So that’s why this kind of way of controlling the laws is called the Bottomless Upwards Spreader.
The Earth clan Celestial Masters don’t need anything to go into the skies and escape from the earth. This kind of way of controlling the laws is called by them Returning To The Heavens And Earth.”
The lady shaman carefully explained all of them one at a time.
“The Earth clan’s way of controlling the laws seems to be a lot more powerful than the other four clans.
Donford bite into a rice patty.
“The Earth clan is the descendent of Emperor Xuan Yuan, the Emperor pa.s.sed down a lot more ways of the law than our four clans.”
The lady shaman stated.
“When can you become a Celestial Master?”
Donford Wu gave the ration pouch that Food Dump bit open back to the lady shaman.
“Shaman’s have three ranks, their subdivisions have nine grades, to me, Celestial Master is too far away.”
The lady shaman tied the empty ration pouch back to her waist.
“I only ate one, the rest was eaten by it.”
Donford Wu laughed while he pointed at the already sleeping Food Dump.
“No problem.”
The lady shaman’s eyes slightly closed, without asking, she was smiling.
“That’s right, how did these names come to be?”
Donford Wu added more firewood to the bonfire. Everyone was laying down resting right now, only the two of them were still talking.
“The name Shaman has been pasted down since ancient times. Sages means a shaman that has high understanding in the laws. The name Celestial Master was what the Emperor called his master Qibo.”
The lady shaman stated.
“Won’t you get tired of wearing a mask all day?”
Donford Wu sneezed.
“All shamans of the female gender must wear masks before marrying.”
The lady shaman said.
“You’re always wearing a mask, how would they know how you look? If they don’t know how you look, who would marry you?”
Donford Wu looked around to find a place to lay down.
“Marrying is seen on proper conduct, morality and virtue, what does that have to do with looks?”
The lady shaman squinted her eyes, this time surely wasn’t a smile, but should be a frown.
“Okay, Okay, Okay, you’re right, it’s late, time to sleep.”
Donford Wu said.
“You asked me all these questions tonight, and I answered all of them, right now, I have one question for you.”
The lady shaman said.
“Go to sleep, we’ll talk tomorrow.”
Donford Wu said.
“It’s only one question, we can sleep after it.”
The lady shaman said.
“Don’t tell me you want to ask where I come from?”
Donford Wu t.i.tled his head towards the lady shaman.
The lady shaman nodded her head.
Donford Wu covered his face and sighed, it’s over, he shouldn’t think about sleeping tonight……
