Chapter 882 (1/1)
The figure in the fog, moving very fast. It's hard to imagine that this figure was called by ATA to lead a few people out of the fog, because she was so fast and self-conscious that she did not consider whether others could keep up with her own pace. Moreover, as several people chase her image forward, they gradually find that the shadow is not flying or running. She is moving fast and dancing a dance that no one has seen before.
When the fog is relatively thin, the dancer's figure is clearer. It is certain that the figure does have female body characteristics, and she is not human. Because there is no human being, the whole body can emit a light yellow like a stamen, and leave a clear human image in the air in the process of moving. Cheese and his companions soon confirmed that they were chasing a goblin. Because only goblins, can appear so unconventional, and only they can dance like that.
In fact, it is normal to think about it carefully. Since the fog was set by the goblins, it is indeed they who can lead those who are trapped in it out. When there is no doubt about the identity of the guides, there are only two questions: first, whether they can keep up with the dancers; second, whether the people who frame them here are willing to let them go.
The first problem is not really a problem. Although the dancer is fast, her route is not straight. It seems that she is more focused on her own dance than walking out of the fog earlier. Several people often see her zigzag forward when they chase her, and sometimes even turn around them. But even when both sides seem to reach out and touch, the details of the dancer's body are still hard to see. Although they are all goblins, dancers and yew people feel totally different.
As for the second question, the cheese took a look behind him, and their movement could not be concealed. Without the breath of dawn, there would be no light in the fog, and both skinners and yews would notice. It's just hard to say whether they will put down their opponents and pursue several people. From the situation that the yew gave up the attack and turned to attack the new comers immediately after the troublemaker appeared, it was unlikely that they would catch up. Cheese can feel that the goblins are not in a hurry. They will meet again. Therefore, he was most worried about the skinners. The mage had no doubt that the skinners could track their tracks in the fog and catch up with them. The strength of the monster's feet could not be measured by the standard of ordinary creatures. So what he expected most was that the yew people could hold on to the things in the cowhide and fight for time to let them get out of the fog.
”Moo!” From the depths of the fog came a scream that made the scalp tight. It was full of anger and unwillingness. Thanks to this, cheese knew they were safe. Sure enough, the next moment, like walking out of a long dark tunnel, the whole world suddenly opened up, the sky, clouds, the sun, and smoke from the distant tribal tents. Looking back at where there is any fog, yew and Skinner are as unreal as a dream. But as everyone knows, what they experience is not a dream.
”Poop.” Wuqi struggled out of Batu's help and knelt down to the figure still dancing on the grassland. He raised his hands, and then fell down on his knees. And the dancer did not stop because of this, she just danced, danced, and gradually disappeared in people's vision. For a long time, the shaman stood up from the ground, but his expression was still excited. He repeated a sentence in the local language of the grassland, the meaning of which was to praise the spirit of the earth.
”I don't understand. Is that dancing figure the spirit of the earth? I think the spirit of the earth should be more Steady. ” Rosa, carrying his Tomahawk, said to cheese that he was really unfamiliar with the beliefs of the prairie people. However, according to his understanding of the God's residence, especially the image one, the God in charge of the earth would not appear as a dancer.
The mage spread out his hand and could not answer the count's question. But what he knows is that it is not uncommon for goblins to be regarded as gods, especially in the pantheon of spirits, it is normal for certain goblins to be witnessed by local people and incorporated into their mythological system. The gods of every place, even though they seem to control or symbolize the same things, may show different features according to different situations in different regions. Of course, to know how the dancers and the earth are connected, this question should be asked by Wuqi.
Shaman actually heard Lothar's words, but his heart was still in some kind of ecstasy. When cheese, even Batu and ATA all looked at him, the wizard slowly opened his mouth, but instead of giving an answer directly, he asked a question, ”in your opinion, what is the world like? I mean, what's the nature of it? ”
People look at each other, this question is too cumbersome, and destined not to have only one answer. So they waited, waiting for the shaman to tell them what the world looked like in his understanding, ”to me and my people, the world is grassland. I mean, of course, the world is wider than all grasslands combined, with mountains and lakes and the sea in your mouth. But for us, it's also grassland. All life in the world is like grass on the grassland, growing here. And that's not static. Grass will grow, it will wither, and so will life. Livestock eat pasture, we eat livestock, just as strong and weak. But these are not the key points. The point is that we are herdsmen. We have to chase the rich grassland with livestock. The grassland will not be in a fixed place, so we will continue to move and get familiar with it before leaving. It's like life. It's like a soul beating between different bodies. ”Wuqi's explanation didn't let everyone understand immediately, but they all showed a thoughtful expression. Cheese simply stood where he was, looking where the dancers had disappeared. He understood Shaman's words. In his eyes, the world is changing, the change of nature, the change of life, the change of psychology, the change of politics, just like the change of grassland. That's why they think of the spirit of the earth as a dancer, dancing constantly, on grass stalks, in rivers, in gaps in mountains. The change of the world never stops. We live in a dynamic world.
But if so. What about the truth? What is the ultimate goal of all casters, sorcerers, and mages seeking? If everything is change, is the knowledge they have or absolutely correct knowledge? Cheese doesn't know. But he wants to think about it, he needs to think about it. He had a hunch that it would be very important.
