The elfins all raised their heads to look at the wolf totem pole at the entrance of the village. They had never seen such a weird and primitive carving style before.
"Wolf spirit?" Fabre repeated, mumbling. It was the first time he had heard of this unfamiliar term.
Zhang Zian had some general knowledge in this area. After all, he had been influenced by many old American western movies and some novels, so he explained to the elfins according to his own common sense.
"Yes, the Native Americans worship and respect nature. They believe that everything has a spirit, and as the top beast in this forest, the wolf is the object of their worship. Because the Native American warriors like to paint their faces with oil and put feathers on the back of their heads to show their strength and to deter their enemies, the image of the wolf was mutated according to their appearance. That is the totem we see now."
"The Native American tribes are very scattered, and different tribes have different beliefs. Some tribes may worship bears more, some may worship eagles more, some may worship cougars more, and the tribe here may worship wolves more."
"Uh … according to what you're saying, the former residents of this deserted village may have been the descendants of the Native Americans who lived in this forest even earlier. After entering the industrial age and the information age, their way of life changed drastically. They abandoned many traditions, but they still kept the tribe's worship of the wolf spirit. This is also the last connection they have with their ancestors. They put the wolf totem pole at the entrance of the village to remember their ancestors, and if other Native Americans came to visit, they could prove their … ancestry. "
Since he had nothing to do for the time being, he might as well talk freely to avoid getting bored.
"I'm not an expert on Native Americans. This is what I know from movies and novels. Maybe it's right, maybe it's wrong. Just listen to it."
"I see …"
Fabre finally knew the origin of the wolf.
"If it's like what you said, and the Native Americans here worship wolves, will there be a corresponding Native American wolf spirit?" it asked.
"This …"
Zhang Zian was stunned by the question. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "In theory, it is possible, but in reality … The Native Americans who were the original owners of this land have almost disappeared. There are only a few Native Americans left. Can they support the power of faith needed to form an elfin?"
"This is different from the worship of the cat goddess in ancient Egypt. Although the ancient Egyptians disappeared, the culture of ancient Egypt has been passed down. Modern Egyptian culture has no sense of existence. When it comes to Egypt, the things that people are familiar with are all from ancient Egypt, and here … here is America, the birthplace of modern civilization. It exports modern American culture and ideas to the world, such as Hollywood, McDonald's, Microsoft, Apple phones, and …"
"Pornhub," Richard interrupted.
Zhang Zian glared at it. "This b * tch bird is talking about YouTube … Not only the Native Americans, but even the Native American culture has been buried in the dust and trampled on. Not many people remember it."
"So, even if there is such a wolf spirit, it may never take form and finally appear in this world?" Fa Ci knew that he was getting closer and closer to the answer, and the fog in his heart gradually became clear. A path appeared in the fog.
"Yes, I think so." Zhang Zian smiled. "But who can be 100% sure about things in this world?"
"I understand."
Fa Ci was no longer confused. He turned to Famous and said, "I want to go to the East with you to see the ancient China. I've heard about it for a long time, but I've never seen it in person. I also want to see the Binhai City that you guys are talking about, and the pet shop that sounds interesting."
"Huh?"
Famous, Zhang Zian, and the other elfins were all surprised. They all thought that Fa Ci would stay for the wolves in the forest, just like how Little White couldn't abandon the stray dogs.
"What about the wolves? They still need your leadership, don't they? "Famous asked on behalf of everyone.
The hunting skills of the wolves still needed to be improved. They had all seen this before.
Fa Ci smiled contentedly. "The wolves already have a more suitable leader, much better than a half-baked leader like me."
Fa Ci used to be a cold-blooded killer. He was a lone wolf and didn't like to be the leader of a group. Since he turned over a new leaf, he had become too kind and wasn't suitable for the wild world where the strong preyed on the weak. Fa Ci knew this very well. If he continued to lead the wolves, he would definitely lead them astray.
How could a sheep lead a group of wolves?
Fortunately, a more suitable candidate … no, a wolf's choice, had appeared.
Perhaps the wolves that had returned to the Mahogany Forest had awakened the long-dormant Indian wolf spirit, or perhaps the evil that had invaded and polluted the forest had awakened it. But because the power of faith was too weak, it couldn't finally take form, at least for now.
But this was also good. In this undisturbed state, Fa Ci could lead the wolves in the Mahogany Forest to develop and grow stronger.
It was fierce, brutal, and ruthless, but this should be the nature of a wolf.
Compared to Fa Ci, the foreign European gray wolf, the native Indian wolf spirit should be the real owner of the forest and the wolves.
Whether it was the God that Fa Ci believed in or the God that Mieza believed in, they were all imported goods in this land. Only the wolf spirit and the spirits of other Indian animals and plants were the most original guardians of nature in North America.
Therefore, Fa Ci had nothing to do here. He was an extra existence here, an invasive species. He believed that the Indian wolf spirit would be more suitable for this position.
Zhang Zian and the elfins looked at each other, confused. They didn't know who Fa Ci was referring to as a more suitable leader, but since he had said so, there shouldn't be a problem.
Without the omniscient eyes, Fa Ci seemed to see the painted face of the wolf again. The face appeared in the mottled shadows of the forest. It looked at Fa Ci, turned around, and gradually disappeared, as if it was saying goodbye to Fa Ci.
Zhang Zian didn't notice the disappearance of the weird wolf face in the forest, but the feeling that he had been constantly being watched since he entered the forest had quietly disappeared.
Yes, Fa Ci had asked the wolf spirit a ridiculous question before. He had asked it where it was going, but in fact, it wasn't going anywhere. This forest was its home. The one who should be asking where it was going was Fa Ci himself.
Now Fa Ci had the answer and saw his own path clearly. It was a path across the sea, straight to the East. Compared to staying in the forest, this path to the East might be full of hardships. It might not be understood by his own kind, but it didn't matter …
Fa Ci withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Zhang Zian.
Its human brothers were always with it.
