Shao Xuan didn't expect to see something like this.
"The Di Mountain tribe doesn't react like this when you use your totemic power, right?" Shao Xuan asked.
"No! Definitely not! "He Bian shook his head vehemently.
The Di Mountain tribe had never seen anything like this before. They had never seen anything like this in their ancestors' records. At least, they hadn't seen anything like this in the records that had been passed down. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so scared.
They often interacted with fish, but they never thought that they would really become fish one day!
"This is strange."
After Shao Xuan calmed down, he walked closer to the stone vat to take a closer look.
Dian Dian had completely lost her cool. She didn't know what to say. She could only wave her fishtail that shouldn't exist helplessly as if she was trying to make sure that this wasn't a dream.
The slapping sound that Shao Xuan heard before he entered the room was the sound of Dian Dian's tail swinging. The water in the stone vat had also been flung out. There were water stains all over the room. Everyone who was guarding the room was drenched as well.
But at this moment, no one cared about wiping the water off. They just stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
"Let me take a look at your totemic power," Shao Xuan said.
Dian Dian didn't reject him. She looked at Shao Xuan expectantly, hoping that Shao Xuan would be able to find the reason.
Shao Xuan reached out his hand and placed it between Dian Dian's eyebrows. A white ball of fire entered her mindscape.
The Di Mountain tribe's totemic power had stabilized. There weren't any changes for the time being. It remained the same as when Shao Xuan left yesterday. The human face was very obvious in the totemic power. There was no fish mouth, and the fins were much smaller. That was why the human face and the fish body were the most obvious parts of the totemic power.
Some of the lines on the human face had already disappeared. The 'eyes' were slightly open, and the fishtail swayed along with the totemic flames around it.
From the appearance of the totemic flames, it was obvious that Dian Dian's totemic power was very active.
"Try retracting your totemic power," Shao Xuan said.
"I can't take it back. I can't control it." This was also Dian Dian's dilemma. Since the beginning of the devouring yesterday, the totemic power had been released, and it had been active all the time. Dian Dian herself had not been able to control the changes of the totemic power.
This time, even Shao Xuan was confused. After all, the Di Mountain tribe's situation was unique. He couldn't use common sense to judge them.
If one only looked at the totems and totem flames in the sea of consciousness, it should be in Dian Dian's favor, and this favorable situation was very stable.
Finding nothing unusual, Shao Xuan retracted his finger and asked, "How do you feel now?"
"Not so good." Diandian swung its fishtail and slapped the stone vat loudly.
Anyone who had been a person for so many years would not feel good if they suddenly became like this one day.
"That's not what I'm asking. I'm asking if you're getting better. Does your body feel strong? "
The slapping sound of her fishtail suddenly stopped. Because of the shock early in the morning, Dian Dian hadn't been able to calm down and check her body carefully. She only knew that the devouring was successful. However, after hearing Shao Xuan's question, Dian Dian's expression changed. She started to check her body's condition carefully. No one knew her better than her.
The illness caused by the conflict between the two opposing forces was gone. Now, Dian Dian only had the totemic power of the Di Mountain tribe in her body. Although the devouring power hadn't completely merged with the totemic power, this situation wouldn't change for the time being. It meant that her illness had been resolved at the source.
Her illness was really resolved, but it brought about another problem.
Her body was full of energy, just like when she had just woken up. She felt that if she dived into the sea now, she could dive to a deeper place and return unscathed.
If she ignored the changes in her body, she would be very excited right now.
"I feel great. I want to swim in the sea," said Dian Dian.
Hearing this, He Bian and the others finally felt a little comforted. No matter how scary the changes were, at least her illness was cured. She wouldn't have to die.
"Actually, you can try," said Shao Xuan. "Whether the changes in your body are good or bad, you will know better when you move. We don't have an ocean here, but there is a man-made lake in the tribe. You can swim there. "No matter how big the stone tank was, it couldn't move freely.
Dian Dian agreed. As long as she moved freely, she would know the changes in her body.
But …
"I want to swim in the water, but I don't want to go to the lake. I want to go to the river in front!" Dian Dian's eyes suddenly shone brightly. She was muddle-headed just now. She was too frightened and didn't understand. Actually, being alive was already the best thing that could happen to her. So what if this change was shocking? As long as it didn't affect her movements, as long as she could return alive, as long as she could solve the Di Mountain tribe's problem, this change was nothing.
"The river in front? You want to swim in the Flaming River? "asked Shao Xuan.
"Yes!" Dian Dian was determined.
"But the Flaming River is very dangerous. There are many piranhas! Big piranhas! " Guigou felt that this child was too brave. Just because she could play with small piranhas, it didn't mean that she didn't have to worry about big fish. Besides, there were other dangers in the river besides piranhas.
"The Flaming River!" Dian Dian confirmed. "He Bian, carry me there."
He Bian wanted to persuade her too, but seeing how determined Dian Dian was, he didn't say anything. Besides, he also wanted to see how Dian Dian would fare in the water. At most, they would protect her more.
He Bian called three people over and planned to carry the large stone vat out.
"Let me do it," said Shao Xuan as he walked over.
The four of them carried the heavy stone vat, and it was difficult for them to walk. It was fine on flat ground, but it was even more difficult when they were going down the mountain. If one of them was distracted and accidentally slipped, the stone vat might overturn. Shao Xuan decided to help again.
He Bian wanted to refuse. He felt that there was no need to ask the Yanjiao people for help. However, when he saw Shao Xuan easily carry the stone tank on his shoulder and walk out, he closed his mouth and followed silently.
Gui Ze and the others followed closely behind. They also wanted to see if the Di tribesmen could still swim freely. The Di tribesmen were originally good at swimming.
When Shao Xuan carried the stone tank down the mountain, he attracted the attention of many Yanjiao tribesmen. They didn't understand why the Head Elder was carrying such a huge tank. There were many people following behind him, including the chief, shaman, and elders. Oh, there were also the Di tribesmen.
What were they going to do?
Some people wanted to follow them to take a look, but Guigou glared at them and they turned away.
The morning sun had just started to shine brightly. The surface of the Flaming River was wrinkled by the wind, reflecting the sunlight.
The people guarding the Flaming River were chewing on freshly roasted beast meat as they looked curiously into the distance. They saw their Head Elder carrying the stone tank to the riverside. Then, as if he was splashing water, he splashed … the person inside the stone tank? Splashed it out!
As Shao Xuan moved, a figure flew out, drew an arc in the air, and jumped into the Flaming River.
Splat!
The roasted meat in the mouth of the Yanjiao warrior guarding the riverside fell to the ground, but he didn't pick it up. Instead, he stared at the river.
Did they see wrongly just now?
