Beast Summoner

"Your nose is pretty sharp!" Li Zhenbang praised him, and the old man's eyes were full of smiles.

"That's right!" Li Zhenbang looked at the old man proudly, then raised the wine gourd in his hand, "Am I not polite?"

"Do as you please!" The old man spread his hands and signaled to Li Zhenbang to do whatever he wanted.

Li Zhenbang shook the wine gourd gently, then put the wine gourd to his nose and sniffed it, slowly closed his eyes, and then took a big sip.

"Hiss...ha...good wine!" Li Zhenbang couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised.

"Of course! You can't drink the wine here outside, and you can't even collect the ingredients!" the old man said proudly.

"Old sir, you live here just to make wine, right?" Li Zhenbang put down the wine gourd and looked at the old man curiously.

"Little guy, if you want to ask anything, just ask directly. Why do you have to be so roundabout?" The old man raised his eyebrows.

"Hey, old sir, it's mainly because I'm a little embarrassed to be direct, so I'm a little more tactful. I'm not beating around the bush." ​​Li Zhenbang touched his nose and responded.

"Are you still embarrassed? I didn't notice it when we were eating." The old man joked.

"Old sir, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't know your last name yet!"

"It's just a meal, what's the big deal." The old man shook his head.

"As the saying goes, a drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring of water. Although I may not be able to repay the favor with a spring of water, I know that a person must know how to repay kindness." Li Zhenbang explained.

"Actually, it's not necessary. In such an environment, if a stranger suddenly appears and gives you something and you dare to eat it, this kind of trust is enough to offset everything. And the name is just a code name. Don't say it, or just say it casually.

Anything is fine." The old man still wasn't ready to say his name.

"Since the old gentleman doesn't want to tell me his name, I won't force him." Li Zhenbang nodded slightly to express his understanding.

To live in such a place, one either really likes it or has no choice. If he doesn't like it here, it doesn't mean that others don't like it either. There must be a reason for choosing this kind of place to live in seclusion.

"Little guy, you seem to be just an ordinary person! Why did you come here?" the old man asked, looking at Li Zhenbang.

"Old sir, please don't flatter me. My current physical condition is far worse than that of ordinary people!" Li Zhenbang smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Your soul power is indeed too weak. You must have suffered a lot of trauma. Were you chased here by your enemies?" the old man asked doubtfully.

Li Zhenbang was shocked. He did not expect that this old man could directly see that his soul power was weak. It seemed that this old man was not an ordinary person!

Under normal circumstances, he should feel that his mental strength is weak. After all, the strength of the soul is not something ordinary people can perceive.

However, Li Zhenbang didn't show it, he just shook his head calmly, "He's not an enemy, he's just a nagging old man who keeps nagging in my ears. I'd rather he be my enemy. I'm the one whose soul is hurt."

When I was practicing, I was greedy for merit and rushed forward, and ended up going crazy."

"This is really a common problem among young people! It's easy to be greedy for success and rush forward, and end up putting yourself in danger. Cultivation is a step-by-step thing and cannot be achieved overnight. No one can become fat in one breath."

"You were lucky this time, but you only hurt your soul. You must be more careful in the future. You only have one life. If you don't have it anymore, you really have nothing." The old man persuaded Li Zhenbang with serious words, as if he was persuading Li Zhenbang.

It seemed like I was remembering something.

"You young people! You always don't like the nagging of old people, and you despise what they say as old-fashioned and outdated. You always feel that we have no common language with you. But when you really grow up, you will know that they are really good for you!

"

"Maybe their thoughts are a little old-fashioned and their words are a little long-winded, but they have no malice and have put all their efforts into you..." The old man regarded Li Zhenbang as a child who ran away from home because of a disagreement with his elders.

It's a child.

Li Zhenbang did not interrupt the old man, but continued to listen to the old man's babble. The old man's babble did not bore him, but made him feel friendly.

"Sorry, I have become a nagging old man. Are you tired of listening to it?" After a while, the old man finally stopped and looked at Li Zhenbang with some embarrassment.

"No, that's fine. You can keep talking, I'm still willing to listen." Li Zhenbang responded with a smile.

"I don't want to listen to the nagging of my family, but if I want to listen to the nagging of a strange old man like me, I don't believe it! If you are annoyed, you are annoyed. There is no need to cater to me." The old man waved his hand, looking very self-aware.

"What I said is true. I really hope that I can sit together with all my family members, chat and talk, even if it's just gossip about family affairs, even if it's some gossip! Alas!" Li Zhenbang sighed.

, shook his head slightly.

"It seems that you are also a person with stories!" The old man could feel that Li Zhenbang's words came from the heart.

"I wonder if the old man can tell you your story?" Li Zhenbang asked.

"I actually don't have much of a story. I'm just a bad old man who saw through the world of mortals and wanted to live in seclusion here, but ended up living in seclusion." The old man said with a slight smile.

Although the old man said it with a smile, Li Zhenbang still heard the sense of vicissitudes of life in the old man's voice.

"Is it so easy to see through the world of mortals? If you haven't experienced great joys and sorrows, and you don't have a certain state of mind, how can you see through it!" Li Zhenbang said with emotion.

"Little guy, you are young and have a lot of experience. Are you ready to see through the world of mortals?" the old man teased.

"Me? Let's forget it! The so-called seeing through is actually more appropriate to say breaking. Breaking the heart, breaking oneself, breaking everything. Either break the jar and throw it away, or break it and then stand up."

"I have people to protect, things to protect, and a future to protect. I am still full of expectations for the future. Even though I am just a summoned beast mage, and my soul is still severely damaged now, I am confident that I will be there soon.

It will recover!" Li Zhenbang shook his head and said firmly.

"So you are a summoned beast mage! No wonder, no wonder! What a pity, what a pity!" The old man nodded first, then shook his head.

"Old sir, what do you mean?" Li Zhenbang was confused by the old man's words and actions. He didn't understand what the old man meant by nodding and shaking his head.

"It's not interesting, I just feel it's a pity. The summoned beast mage relies most on mental power, but you have damaged the soul. Alas!" The old man sighed and did not finish his words, but Li Zhenbang understood what the old man meant.

When the soul is damaged, the mental power will naturally be greatly affected. My current soul energy is not as good as that of ordinary people. Under normal circumstances, I, the Summoned Beast Mage, have become useless.

Originally, the summoned beast mage was already a very useless profession, but now judging from the condition of his soul, he can already be called a loser.

Even if the ordinary summoned beast mage is worthless, it is still a pity to eat without meat, and in this situation, he is not even qualified to be used as firewood.

The old man didn't speak any more. He picked up a tree stump and slid his fingers gently. A wooden bowl was quickly formed. The inner wall of the wooden bowl was smooth without any burrs, as if it had been polished. After the wooden bowl was finished, the old man

The same technique is used to make a pair of chopsticks.

Li Zhenbang could see clearly that when the old man was making wooden bowls and chopsticks, they looked like they were picked out by the old man's fingers. In fact, there was a golden light that was almost invisible to the naked eye on the tips of the old man's fingers. The golden light faintly revealed the magic of gold.

Waves of elements.

Li Zhenbang was a little shocked. This old man was indeed no ordinary person. He could control the metal magic elements so accurately, and his energy was almost completely restrained and did not leak out.

If it weren't for his keen sense of magic elements, he would hardly be able to detect it. If it were anyone else, he would definitely think that it was something that the old man had dug out with his fingers.

"Old sir, I didn't expect you to be a gold medalist..." Li Zhenbang froze in place with his mouth open before he finished speaking.

It turned out that the old man picked up the newly made wooden bowl and ran his fingers over the wooden bowl again. The wooden bowl turned slightly yellow, as if it had been roasted by fire. Then he ran his fingers over the chopsticks, and the same thing happened to the chopsticks.

situation.

This time Li Zhenbang clearly saw a red light flashing at the tip of the old man's finger. The red light turned out to be the element of fire magic.

"This pair of bowls and chopsticks are for you. It doesn't matter if you're hungry. I don't want to watch you eat while you're hungry." The old man smiled and placed the new bowl and chopsticks in front of Li Zhenbang, "By the way,

What did you just say?"

"You...are you a magician of both metal and fire elements?" Li Zhenbang asked in a low voice.

Li Zhenbang has also seen a few dual-system magicians. His former classmate Lin Waner is a dual-system magician of metal and earth. However, the two attributes of a dual-system magician are complementary to each other. He has never seen the two attributes conflict with each other.

.

"I agree with being a magician, but I am not a magician with both elements of gold and fire." The old man shook his head.

"Not the dual elements of gold and fire? Then are you a magician of the third element?" Li Zhenbang's eyes widened. It's not that there are magicians of the three elements, but they are too rare. Once they grow up, all of them achieve extraordinary things.

The old man still smiled and shook his head.

Li Zhenbang felt that his throat was a little dry, "Could it be...could it be that you are...a magician of the fourth line?"

The old man still smiled and shook his head.

The corners of Li Zhenbang's mouth began to twitch, and his voice became hoarse, "You... you can't be a five-series magician, right?"

After these words were spoken, Li Zhenbang himself didn't believe it. It was said that only the God of Law was a five-line magician. The person in front of him couldn't be the God of Law or a descendant of the God of Law, right?
