Survival skills maxed out, I feed my wife and daughter by catching fish and shrimp

After dealing with the scum in front of him, Chen Changfan looked at the Nine-Colored Deer not far away. He saw that the Nine-Colored Deer had a human-like expression of pain on its face, and seemed to be in some kind of difficult struggle.

Chen Changfan hesitated for a moment, then took out the formation plates from those people, followed the marks of the formation plates on the ground, rearranged the formation, and then lit up all the formation plates in the order he remembered.

hum!

Accompanied by a slight humming sound, the array plate shone brightly again, the ground shook, a crack appeared, and water surged up, forming a river again.

Wow!

The river water spread and overflowed the land under the feet of the Nine-Colored Deer. The Nine-Colored Deer, who originally had a painful expression, suddenly had a light glow between his brows, and then his figure became illusory and disappeared in the water.

"As expected, the Nine-Colored Deer will regain its spirit once it returns to the water. I'm afraid it was controlled by some kind of spell just now."

Chen Changfan guessed.

Qin Chang on the side was completely dumbfounded.

He was now completely confused. The methods these people used were simply like those of gods.

If the other party wanted to take his life, he could probably do it in the blink of an eye.

Qin Chang didn't dare to speak, because the young man was squatting silently by the river, as if waiting for something.

Qin Chang didn't dare to speak or run. He could only stay where he was, not daring to make a sound.

"You don't have to follow me. I'm going to go to these big-nosed Taoist temples and there might be a fight. It's inconvenient to bring you along."

Taoist temple? Fight?

Qin Chang found it hard to understand, but he felt that this must be very dangerous. He had wanted to run away for a long time, so he walked down the mountain without hesitation.

Watching Qin Chang leave, Chen Changfan didn't bother to pay attention.

This guy just followed me to dig a lot of Cordyceps, so it was worth the trip.

Wow!

After waiting for a while, the sound of flowing water was heard again, and a familiar white deer phantom emerged on the water surface, and then condensed into the shape of a nine-colored deer.

Seeing that the Nine-Colored Deer had regained its previous agility, Chen Changfan's brows relaxed, knowing that the Nine-Colored Deer had gotten rid of the strange state it was in just now and seemed to be safe for the time being.

"You saved me just now, thank you." The voice of the Nine-Colored Deer was still very pleasant. It seemed to know that it was Chen Changfan who saved it, and was the first to thank him.

"A verbal thank you?" Chen Changfan curled his lips and asked, "What happened to you just now? Are you okay now?"

The Nine-Colored Deer's eyes flashed with contemplation, and then he said with some enlightenment, "It's that name. That name seems to have magical power. Once I have a thought about it, it will cast a spell on me."

That name?

Witch God? Or Beast God?

Chen Changfan had some guesses in his mind, but he didn't dare to ask.

If the evil god is the kind of strange existence that can be sensed when its true name is chanted, then he was already on the verge of violating a taboo.

Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with ordinary people chanting the name of the evil god. After all, people do not have an intuitive concept of the evil god.

It's like you know a person named Zhang San, but you have never seen Zhang San in person. Then when you mention the name Zhang San, your mind will not naturally associate Zhang San's appearance with yours. In other words, on the spiritual level, you do not have some unknown connection with Zhang San. Even if he hears someone saying his name, he cannot perceive who it is.

He is even more unable to sense whether your thoughts towards him are malicious or well-intentioned.

But Jiuselu had obviously seen the evil god. Once the idea of ​​the evil god came into his mind, he would be involuntarily influenced by the evil god. What happened just now was the best example.

As for why he remembered the name of the evil god and saw the silhouette of the evil god in his dream without suffering from mental pollution, Chen Changfan could only say that he had some guesses.

Perhaps the Nine-Colored Deer had seen the true form of the evil god with his own eyes, or perhaps the Nine-Colored Deer knew the real name of the evil god.

In short, the Nine-Colored Deer must have had deep enough contact with the evil god to be mentally polluted.

It stands to reason that even if he mentioned the name of the evil god, he would not be easily contaminated.

After all, the words "Beast God" were clearly written in history books, and I had never heard of anyone going crazy after reading history books, so I might be safe for now.

But after today's experience, he still felt that he should be as cautious as possible, try not to mention the name of the evil god, and try not to touch anything related to the evil god.

Who would have thought that the more he understood this fucked up world, the more absurd he found it.

But when I think about it, I feel relieved. This world has precious fish, spiritual materials, extraordinary people, and evil gods. It is hard not to have chaos.

Perhaps the underlying logic of this world is chaos and disorder. The more you touch upon the deeper secrets, the more likely you are to encounter ominous things.

What the hell...

Chen Changfan felt like cursing.

"I advise you not to try to think of that name. If you know it, try not to say it. Sometimes, even if you pretend not to know His existence, He will still come to you."

Seeing Chen Changfan lost in thought, Jiuselu immediately gave him a kind reminder.

Chen Changfan nodded, temporarily pausing his thoughts.

He noticed that the Nine-Colored Deer's eyes were a little dim. It seemed that it had been exhausted after the pollution just now.

If I hadn't rescued it just now, it would be hard to imagine what strange thing would happen to the Nine-Colored Deer.

Chen Changfan felt like cursing again.

Why are these evil gods so weird that even their names cannot be mentioned casually?

"It seems you were contaminated just now. How did that guy develop this weakness? He deliberately mentioned "Him" in front of you just to contaminate you, and then take advantage of your contamination to kill you."

Chen Changfan asked the question, then suppressed the urge to get away as quickly as possible and looked at the corpse on the ground.

He was now almost certain that the god this guy believed in was the evil god who had just tried to pollute the Nine-Colored Deer.

Fortunately, I was cautious enough and did not start the reincarnation cycle.

Otherwise, he might be the one who is contaminated.

"Fanatical believers, these guys have been here for so many years, they are just a bunch of lunatics." A trace of disgust flashed in Jiuselu's eyes. He then looked at Chen Changfan and his tone became much softer. "You went deep into this Earth Lung Mountain alone, I guess you came here for the stepping stone, right? After all, the way for a warrior to climb the steps is too difficult, too difficult..."

I came here for Li Xuanguang's cave and the meteorite sand.

Chen Changfan thought to himself.

Wait, stepping stones?

As if sensing the confusion on Chen Changfan's face, the Nine-Colored Deer continued, "This stepping stone has a long history. It's said to be a piece of meteorite from outer space. This meteorite contains spiritual essence, which is why it attracts creatures like me. However, I'm trapped within the rules. Not only can I not make any further progress, but I'm like a prisoner, bound to this mountain, being constantly exploited as a resource..."
