第164章 与祝言，封巫石，锻造巫器

在这蛮荒也是有着气候的轮转，而这普通的气候变化在这神秘辽阔的蛮荒，就成了一道道让万千生灵陷入水深火热的灾害，就比如之前的雨季与水灾，也比如即将来临的那天降流火、霜雪寒冰之季。
……
当祈明来到祝这里，祝开口便向他道：
“火季与寒季，即将来临！”
"Before I could perceive strange celestial phenomena and perform divination, I received a magical message from the Chi Yan tribe, saying that in half a year, the season of fire will arrive, and the season of fire has always been just a prelude to the season of cold."
“当然，现在是只有四个月时间了。”
祈明遍阅部落传承, 自然是知道火季与寒季是什么。
到那时候, 天降流火，天地间一片灼热, 燥热的温度下使得蛮荒丛林不时就升出一场火灾来，往年火灾时，这十万大山，至少有一般的山头被烧秃……至于那霜雪寒冰之季，气温骤降，飞雪漫天，而后天地间一切都冻结起来。
Qi Ming frowned:
"Zhu, the floods this year came very early."
"Both fire season and cold season seem to have started early too?"
祝摇摇头道：“我通过仪式，向万灵问询，诸多天地之灵皆不知，灵主有言：死海翻涌为因。至于死海是什么，我也是才从灵主处收到一些消息，这就给你。”
灵主，便是那‘万灵意志’。
祝也从指尖凝聚出一团火种力量，交给祈明, 其中蕴含着死海的相关信息。
祈明用薪火吸收，而后浏览。
【死海，无尽蛮荒外，是浩瀚死海，其中万灵沉寂……】
他在其中更是看到这么一条：【蛮荒有弱水与死海接壤，衍生神异，亦是具备沉寂之效，但稍弱之】当然，这个消息，对于祈明之外的人来说，可能并不重要……但祈明却是将其挑出，然后重点铭记。
His salted fish totem absorbs the mysterious power of weak water and is also connected to the Dead Sea.
It seems that Jingming has probably finished reading it.
Zhu continued, "It's good that you're back. Disaster is about to strike, and there are many preparations that still need to be done. We need your help."
“不过，现在，你先回家吧。”
“休息一晚，等明天的时候, 再来找我。”
祈明应下，但没有立刻走，他可是刚回来，不说从弱水中收获的那些东西，与太荒山脉诸多部落、氏族，交易来的那些物资，也是需要先交给的，祝又向祝道：“祝，我先把这次交易来的东西都给你……”
祝猛地一拍脑门：
“啊，对，还有交易，我都忘了！”
那些部落、氏族的特产，并非是直接存在在祈明龙巢中，而是先储藏在牙钱中，然后存放在龙巢的真实空间中。
So...
These specialties have not been marinated.
That's right, the items directly stored in the Qi Ming Dragon Nest virtual realm are imbued with his totem power and then marinated. The ones he doesn't want to marinate have to be first stored in the tooth money and then placed in the real space of the Dragon Nest, requiring a layer of isolation means.
这也算是，祈明龙巢空间，唯一的一点坏处吧。
每一个部落，都有着对于本部落特产独特的保存方法。
祈明带回的特产，不用腌制，也能够储藏很久。
Zhù looked at these things and was quite satisfied: "Not bad, very good. The fire season and cold season are approaching, and these things are just right!"
However, Qí Míng said to Zhù again:
"I also found many good things at the source of the Weak Water!"
祈明又将几枚牙钱递给祝，祝接过后，查看一番，更是喜笑颜开：“这些东西的价值，不必交易来的东西低，部落也没什么能给你的了，从今往后，在部落中，你想要什么，要干什么，尽管跟我说就好！”
Among them are the piece of cold stone, numerous ore veins, and the mysterious animal bones buried for unknown ages, carrying a supernatural aura, and so on.
Of course, Qiming did not hand over everything.
He is not a selfless person at all. He first keeps what he needs and only gives what he deems temporarily useless to Zhu.
"Wouldn't it be better to have a laissez-faire attitude towards exchanges with Zhu?"
“部落发展更好，对我来说，不也能提供更大助力？”
这些东西，于祈明无用。
但对于部落来说，却是有着大用。
就比如说，将那些矿母种入黑山，那寒石在之后的火季中……
……
在之后，祈明是回到了自己家中，这时候彩云已经收到消息，在石洞中等着他……他两人是能通过黄金之骨雕琢的耳坠联络的，但那终究多有不便，与见面多有区别，还是怪想念的。
回到家中，李玉吒也过来了。
李玉吒的厨艺比彩云要好太多，她早已经做好了饭，就等待着祈明。
在之后，他们三人就一边吃着饭，祈明说着自己这次外出的经历，着重描述了一下他见到的，其他部落、氏族的情景与特点。
虽然他只是稍微与之接触……
但通过他巫灵的真瞳、薪火神异，倒也是窥见了这些部落、氏族不少的信息。
此刻向彩云与李玉吒两人说起来，倒也是头头是道。
Qiming even thought about whether to organize this information in a few days and give it to Zhu.
Time passed quickly, and Qiming had not been speaking for long when it was late at night. Li Yuzha walked out of the door and returned to the bamboo forest outside the tribe to rest. As for Qiming and Caiyun, they naturally had some secrets between them as a couple. It had been a long time since they last saw each other, and their passion was burning. This was also a good opportunity to resolve conflicts and deepen their relationship.
祈明还邀请彩云，到他蜕变后的龙巢参观，将一些对她有用的，如净水之珠的异物，交给她。
一夜风雨后……
……
第二日，祈明来到了祝这里。
Qiming confided in Zhu and told him about the transformation of his dragon's nest, hoping that Zhu could provide some guidance.
Zhu pondered deeply and then walked out of the stone house to the tribe's fire, where he performed a divination ritual using a tortoise shell as an offering and Qiming's blood as a catalyst. Ultimately, Zhu only said to Qiming, "You have become the foundation, existing between reality and illusion. Your unique connection to both totems is a result of fortunate circumstances, making you extraordinary."
"I divined that you will dig up totems while expanding your dragon's nest."
After telling Qiming about the divination result, he smiled kindly and said, "Now that you have supernatural powers, it is still so mysterious and truly enviable!"
Zhuhuan suddenly pointed at Qiming and exclaimed: "
God's abilities are only possessed by king beasts, you have the potential to rival them!"
"You are extraordinary in the realm of totems!"
Qiming scratched his head and grinned, not knowing what to say.
Could it be said that "I am cheating?" You see, most of his achievements now come from that 'legendary gathering' of special abilities, which is progressing by the progress bar.
……
The shamans in the tribe are mostly not suitable for leaving the tribe.
因为他们身躯不如勇士强韧，外出的话，除非用上一些护身的巫术，否则就很容易遭遇不测，当然，如果是祝那种实力的，或者是大巫的话，就另当别论了，他们身躯经受巫灵孕养，可一点不弱。
而且，护身的手段，更是数不胜数。
祈明也是例外，他有着凝水层膜的护身巫术，更是一位猛士。
回到部落休息几天，他就被派出去，与部落的狩猎队一同狩猎——有着巫的巫术加持，狩猎效率的提升可不是一点半点。
They can't handle the ferocious beasts with different blood.
Neither can Qiming.
However, if they cooperate, Qiming can bless them with his sorcery, and then they will be able to hunt some weaker ferocious beasts with different blood.
至于那首领凶兽，更是手到擒来。
祈明身为一名巫，虽然说依旧是学徒，但一直跟着狩猎，他心中还是感觉有些浪费自己时间的……于是，他就试图研发能够不用出部落，也能够对部落勇士狩猎有帮助的方法。
耗费一月时间，终于是有了成果。
【空白的封巫石】
【以咸鱼图腾之力的惰化神异，配合一项特殊仪式，制成的特殊之物，可提前储藏巫术于其中，捏碎即可施展而出，最多可储藏半年时间。】
祝对这‘封巫石’，赞誉有加！
或许这对于部落的巫来说，没有什么用处，他们能够通过将巫术提前储藏在身躯上，但对于那些要外出去狩猎的勇士，对于黑石部落现在的情况，却是正好，能够极大效率提升狩猎队的狩猎效率！
唯一的不足之处……
就是这封巫石，仅有祈明能够制作。
制作封巫石的材料，就是他从弱水之源带回来的那些兽骨，被弱水侵蚀千万年，其中蕴含着弱水的力量，祈明正是依此神异来锻造的。
所用兽骨材质不同，封巫石能够储藏巫术的强度也不同。
祝试着储藏一两项巫术，但没成功，祈明将制作封巫石的原理与方法，都教给祝。
没想到，祝直接用祈明提供的弱水，与那晦暗的青铜荒骨，制作出了十一枚封巫石，还都是能够储藏神通的那种……祈明瞠目结舌，厚着脸皮，又拿出来一些弱水，两根晦暗的青铜荒骨，甚至还有那根晦暗的黄金之骨。
Then, she smiled at Zhu.
Zhu's blood pressure rose: "..."
He tried to ask calmly: "Tell me, what else are you hiding?"
Qi Ming shook her head: "Not much, just a few little things, they are all useful to me."
祝研究出了新的，制作封巫石的方法。
祈明将这方法，教给了彩云。
彩云与部落族人经常交流，她便去将这方法教给了其他几位巫，同时也带给了他们大量的弱水与兽骨。
祈明就此，空闲下来……
而部落，则是进入了新的忙碌期。
……
巫都是有着巫器的，都是自己寻找各种材料进行锻造。
祈明也仅有三件，在他成为巫的时候，沾染了他气息，托仪式的福，炼制而成巫器。
此刻，他想要亲自锻造一柄巫器。
他准备以这牙刀为胚胎制作——从弱水之源中收获的诸多兽骨，正好成为他的材料，还有那，一些黄金之骨的骨渣（也是他在弱水中捡拾的），还有一些特殊的矿石，弱水之砂与土精，也是不错的锻造材料。
一般的火焰，自然是不能够烧融骨头。
但部落锻造，是用的带有火种气息的火焰，自有神异，可融骨化石。
祈明在这时候，直接用自己的薪火。
牙刀被烧红，在火种气息的熏灼下，这牙刀带上了金属的质感，祈明手持一柄铁锤，也轰然砸下。
牙刀直接碎裂成片。
继续用薪火灼烧，骨片融化。
祈明也不断将其余兽骨加入其中，还有一些锻造过矿石加入其中。
黄金之骨的骨渣，早已经被他请求祝，研磨成为粉末，金粉洒下，添入这混杂的骨液之中，甚至灵光一闪，他还加入了李玉吒的根茎……祈明的图腾之力渗透骨液，弱水之力的神异发挥作用，某种灰色的杂质逐渐析出，只剩下了纯粹的骨质的白。
It is like casting metal utensils.
This, under the scent of fire, the bone fluid with metallic properties is poured by Qi Ming into a prepared mold...followed by a series of forging and quenching processes.
Finally, the bone blade is formed.
It looks like bone material, smooth and white as jade.
But when touched, it carries the coldness and sharpness unique to metal.
【Sharp Bone Blade】
【采用多种材质，以高超技艺与娴熟技巧，制作而成，坚硬无比，锋利无双，是绝对的利器！】
但锻造并没有结束。
他要的是巫器。
Slitting his palm with a bone blade, blood staining its surface, Qiming held the cold knife and arrived at a prepared ritual site. Then came the recitation of incantations, infusion of spiritual light, and the burning of spirituality. Utilizing this witchcraft medium, he instantly executed multiple spells, before meticulously inscribing intricate runes onto the surface of the bone blade.
Finally, he shouted in a low voice, "The ceremony, over!"
Blood flowed along the trajectory of the runes, and then directly infiltrated into the bone blade, infused with the spirituality of Qi Ming.
The bone blade glimmers, suspended in mid-air...
After a moment, this process finally ends, and the bone blade transforms into the size of a fruit knife, floating in his hand.
【A bizarre, living witchcraft tool with an unusual shape】
【Changeable size, unmatched sharpness, capable of conducting the power of totems and witchcraft, with a vampiric effect, and harboring faint spirituality within it...】
Qiming looked at the introduction of this magical tool and was quite satisfied, even a little excited.
The fact that the magical tool was 'alive' was beyond his expectations.
其他的特性，都是他刻画的符文与巫术之效，但这使得这巫器‘活着’的原因，祈明猜测是他灵光乍现，添加的李玉吒的根茎所致……看着注入灵性后，刀刃表面显现出的鸦羽的图案，他如实想到。
这鸦羽似乎还在摇曳。
……
