King of Beasts

Chapter 63: The Temptation of Returning to the Village

Lu Ran observed the four people closely.

They all looked to be in their early twenties, with a healthy wheat-colored complexion. Regardless of gender, height, weight or size, they all had certain muscles. Even the cool hunter sister who spoke up looked very difficult to mess with, the kind who could kill five scumbags with one punch.

Facing the female hunter's question, Lu Ran showed a smile that he thought was friendly: "I think your clothes look familiar."

"My grandfather also had similar clothes. He was also a hunter in Lujia Village in his early years."

"But later, our family moved to the city and rarely went back."

After Lu Ran finished speaking, the four people were all stunned. The strongest young man among them said unexpectedly: "Fellow villager? What's your grandfather's name?"

"My old man is Lu Hai." Lu Ran said.

"This name... why does it sound a little familiar." The female hunter pondered for a moment.

"There are many people named Lu Hai in Lujia Village, but if you say someone who moved out... Village Chief Lu Hai?!" Suddenly, a thin hunter thought of something and spoke in surprise.

When he said this, several people quickly remembered that the village chiefs of Lujia Village were elected based on their hunting skills. The people here are tough and there are hunting activities every year, so each generation of village chiefs is very well-known. Children grow up listening to their stories, and their prestige is far beyond that of the heads of other villages.

Since they are not too far away, these people have heard of the name of village chief Lu Hai. Lujia Village does have such a village chief. Because his children are doing well, they moved to the city. I heard from the elders that the children of village chief Lu Hai often donated money to the village and even built primary schools and health centers.

"That's what you are talking about. He was indeed the village chief. My old man got sick in his later years. The medical conditions in the village were not good, so he could only be taken to a big city for recuperation. After a long time, our family settled outside." Lu Ran explained.

"You are the grandson of village chief Lu Hai?!" The cautious people were surprised when they heard Lu Ran introduce himself and it matched their memories. They looked at Lu Ran with a touch of intimacy. As the saying goes, when fellow villagers meet, their eyes are filled with tears.

Infinite City No. 3 spans seven provinces. It is a fate to meet in this situation, especially when Lu Ran's elders are all famous people in the village!

"Really fellow villagers!"

"Hahaha, sit down, come, don't be polite, let's chat while eating, we treat you." The strongest young man said proudly.

"Really? Then I won't be polite!" Lu Ran was pleasantly surprised to hear that he could eat for free.

"I didn't expect to meet the grandson of village chief Lu Hai in Infinite City..." The female hunter said with emotion:

"Well, let me introduce you first, this is Lu Yi." The female hunter first pointed to the strongest young man and said, "The four of us have now formed a beast control team, and he is the captain."

Lu Yi smiled and nodded. Judging from his size, he is indeed the strongest.

"This is Lu Dingding." Then, she introduced the thin man with a smile: "Not Lu Dingding, but Lu Dingding."

"Lu Bing, shut up!" The thin young man looked annoyed, very angry that others called him a nickname, he was not old enough to wear open-crotch pants, and still called him randomly.

"Uh..." Lu Ran could only twitch his mouth and tried not to laugh. This name... his parents are really talented!

"My name is Lu Bing, and the last one is Lu Wu, the fifth child in the family, and we all call him Xiaowu." Lu Bing pointed to the shortest young man among the few people, who was about 1.6 meters tall.

"What about you?" She finally asked Lu Ran.

"Hello, my name is Lu Ran. I didn't expect... Lujia Village would produce so many beast masters." Lu Ran said.

"It's not just us." Xiao Wu said happily: "Most of the young people in the village have become beast masters, there are dozens of them, and they have all passed the novice test. We are just one of them."

"Puff..." Lu Ran almost spit out, and said: "What, dozens of them?"

Even if there were so many beast masters in a county, Lu Ran would not be so surprised, but Lujia Village is indeed just a small village with a small population. It seems that the hunter heritage has really added a lot of points to the village, and everyone has the qualifications to tame beasts!

"Haha, there are quite a lot of people. In fact, in the first, second, and third batches, there are also people in our village who have become beast masters..." Lu Yi said regretfully: "But although there are many people, we are also unlucky.

"How to say it. "Lu Ran asked.

"In the first generation, everyone was groping and fell into many traps, so our eldest brother who was selected had an accident not long after. He is the son of the current village chief and is very good at hunting. In the second generation, we have two beast masters selected, but unfortunately, they are both..."

"The third generation is the same. Everyone is well prepared and enters with high spirits, but our village is like cursed. Every beast master will not live long, damn it." Lu Yi couldn't help swearing.

"Maybe, it's also related to our people who love to fight with the secret realm and like to hunt in teams with the same tribe..." Lu Dingding touched his nose. This is the disadvantage of the tough folk customs. It's easy to die.

In addition, the three generations of beast masters in Lujia Village all team up together, so basically if one person gets into trouble, the whole team will be wiped out.

"This..." Lu Ran didn't expect it to be like this. He couldn't help but say: "In other words, now there are only four generations of beast masters in our Lujia Village?"

"That's it. "Lu Yi nodded and said, "Although those brothers and sisters are gone, each of them prepared a lot of resources for the village when they were alive."

"So the fourth batch of beast masters has arrived, and the selected beast masters in the village have been allocated a lot of initial resources. This time, our Lujia Village will definitely rise." Lu Yi looked forward to: "At that time, the whole village will become rich together. "

"Then do you have any plans, such as joining the official, joining a guild, etc." Lu Ran asked.

"No." Lu Bing put his legs together and said: "The village decided to establish a guild of its own. After all, traditional customs are here, and it is difficult for young people who stay in the village for a long time to integrate into the outside world. It is better for everyone to sign up for a guild to keep warm. "

"Honestly, hunting in a secret place makes more money than hunting outside."

"Although it is slower than other major guilds, Lujia Village has always worked hard on its own. Who is worse than the other?"

"Brother Lu Ran, do you want to join us? If you are the grandson of Village Chief Lu Hai, you should be able to do it. We will find someone to help you upgrade when the time comes." Sister Lu Bing said with a smile.

"Uh... maybe it's not possible. My elders want me to go to the Beast Control University first..." Lu Ran said.

"The University of Beast Control?" Lu Yi said: "It is also a good way out. There are mostly hunters in our village, and few have the talent to read. It is difficult to produce a college student in more than ten years. It doesn't matter. Since we are from the same village, we can also have more when the time comes. If you have any problems, you can come to us.”

"Yeah." Lu Ran nodded and said: "Brother Lu Yi, please introduce me to Lujia Village. I remember that I haven't been back a few times and have almost forgotten about it. I won't say anything when I have time. I want to go take a look and pay homage to my ancestors.”

"This... I'll leave this to Lu Bing to introduce." Lu Yi smiled awkwardly, feeling that he didn't do the introduction well.

Next to him, Lu Bing rolled his eyes and said, "You have forgotten everything about your ancestors!"

She looked at Lu Ran affectionately and introduced: "Lujia Village has a long history, maybe it can be traced back to four or five thousand years ago."

"This is too long!" Lu Ran was stunned.

"Well, that's how the legend spread, but no one can say whether it lasted so long. Anyway, the village has moved several times, and the village's history has been interrupted again and again..." Lu Bing coughed dryly:

"Isn't totem culture popular at that time? Our village actually has its own totem, which is a sacred deer. The elders in the village say that we are protected by the sacred deer and can be passed down to this day."

"Even now, there is still a temple in the village to worship the sacred deer."

"However, this culture seems to have been discontinued in the past hundred years. Except for some old people, young people rarely go to worship the sacred deer, and they are forced to go there." Lu Bing said: "We are called Lujia Village because of this Sacred deer, deer, Lu, transformed."

Lu Bing didn't know that when she was saying this, Lu Ran next to her had already stirred up an uproar in her heart, and her legs began to shake unconsciously.

Depend on.

He knew that there was an inexplicable relationship between the sacred deer's broken horns and Lujiacun.

The result is true.

Totem culture?

Generally speaking, most of the totems believed by ancient tribes should be fake and fictitious, but how does Lu Ran feel that this one believed in by Lujia Village is real...

The official statement is not true, right? Supernatural powers did exist in ancient Blue Star!

And now, the spiritual energy is resurrected!

"Our village... why does it use the sacred deer as its totem?" Lu Ran asked, suppressing the surprise in his heart.

"Well... I don't know." Lu Bing shrugged and said, "Maybe some old people in the village still know some history, but I guess the probability is not high, after all, it has been so long."

"It's not easy to believe in the sacred deer to this day."

"Okay." Lu Ran nodded. It seemed that he had to go to Lujia Village. He would not feel at ease unless he understood the matter about the sacred deer.

"Should we order food..." At this time, Xiao Wu touched his stomach and said.

This restaurant has a self-service ordering system. Several people sat and chatted for a long time, but in the end they didn't order a single dish.

"Lu Ran, if you are interested in the history of the village, go back and take a look when you have time. We will introduce you to some respected old people. Maybe they will know about it." Lu Bing said, "Xiaowu is already hungry, so let's order food first." Come on, Lu Ran, order first and see what you want to eat, don’t save us any crystal coins.”

"Okay..." Lu Ran smiled slightly, but at this moment, there was a sudden noise in the restaurant.

Someone shouted some game terms such as public secrets, wild bosses, and go grab monsters. The restaurant was filled with restlessness for a moment, as if spring had arrived.
