Chapter 44 True Transformation
After understanding the situation, Wang Lang expressed his understanding of this matter.
Because he heard a story about an elephant when he was very young.
The story goes like this: in a circus, there was an elephant tied with a thin rope.
Everyone was puzzled. Given the elephant's strength, it would be easy for it to break free from the thin rope, but why was it so obedient and not struggling at all?
Later, the trainer revealed the secret.
When the elephant was still very young, they tied it to a cement pillar with a thick iron chain. Because the baby elephant was still relatively weak at the time, no matter how hard it tried, it could not break free from the iron chain, and it was also strangled with scars.
As time goes by, the baby elephant grows up slowly. When the idea that "it will never be possible to break the chain" is firmly formed in the elephant's mind, it will give up trying and allow itself to be chained for the rest of its life.
Even though the trainer later replaced the chain with a very thin one, the elephant had already lost the courage to break free of it.
The current situation of this sacred beast, the abacus, is the same as that of the adult elephant tied with a thin iron chain.
It had been tortured to death by the 800-year-old Kang since it was young. No matter how it resisted, it could not defeat him and could not escape its fate of being tortured.
Over time, a shadow formed in its heart.
It was afraid and terrified. It believed that it would never be able to defeat this eight hundred year old Dang Kang.
So even though its strength has long surpassed that of the eight hundred year old Dang Kang, it still cannot defeat it.
I couldn't even muster the desire to resist or fight, and could only let it ravage me!
The mythical beast abacus was grabbing a piece of barbecue and devouring it.
Although its eating appearance is still very heroic, it is far inferior to before.
Now there is no light in its eyes, but more fear and grievance. Obviously, the childhood nightmare it just recalled has really had a great impact on it.
Looking at the current situation of the divine beast, the ape, Wang Lang knew in his heart that he must find a way to help it overcome its fear and regain its confidence.
Otherwise, if it is always afraid and lacks confidence and courage, it will never be able to grow into a true divine beast.
This story of the elephant tied with a chain is definitely very educational, but it is probably not very useful nowadays.
Although Wang Lang and the mythical beast abacus have signed a contract, communication between them has become very simple. They only need to talk to each other to understand each other.
But Wang Lang knew that the ape would not understand the story of the elephant tied with a chain, because it had never seen a chain, and neither had the elephant.
Although there are elephants in the Shanhai Dahuang world, the elephants here are very different from those on the Blue Star.
The mythical beast has never seen the ape. If you talk to it about this story now and just let it imagine it, it will find it difficult to understand the meaning.
Wang Lang also understood that he had signed a contract with the mythical beast. At this time, it was equivalent to a master-servant relationship. He could force it to believe that it could defeat the 800-year-old Dang Kang.
But if you really do this, it won't be of much use.
It will be of no use if you force it to believe without letting it figure things out on its own and regain its courage and confidence.
The shadow in its heart can never be dispelled.
After thinking about it, Wang Lang spoke to the mythical beast abacus.
"Come on, eat more. You can eat as much as you want today."
As he spoke, Wang Lang pushed the barbecue on the stone table towards the direction of the mythical beast abiosis.
Roar, roar, roar… Roar, roar, roar…
The mythical beast abacus growled twice to express its excitement.
At this time, Wang Lang continued speaking.
"Now that we have signed the contract, you will become my partner in life and death, just like Xiaohua and Xiaoxue. According to convention, I should give you a name now."
After a brief pause, Wang Lang continued, "King Kong, you will be called King Kong. From now on, just call me Big Brother like Xiaohua and Xiaoxue."
roar roar...
The mythical beast abacus growled and repeated the word "King Kong" that Wang Lang said.
"Yes, it is King Kong. In our world, King Kong is the king of all beasts. It is as tall as a mountain and can fight any opponent in the world."
Roar, roar, roar… Roar, roar, roar…
After hearing Wang Lang’s explanation, the mythical beast abacus immediately roared excitedly.
Its roar means, "Hello, King Kong. I will be called King Kong."
The divine beast abacus turned around and roared at Xiaoxue who was lying on the other side of the stone table eating barbecue, and Xiaohua who was standing on the grass not far behind it and eating barbecue.
Roar, roar, roar… Roar, roar, roar…
It's saying, did you hear me, my name is King Kong.
Ouch...
Moo moo...
Xiaoxue and Xiaohua both called out in response to the mythical beast Abacus, no, now it should be King Kong.
After King Kong finished showing off and calmed down, Wang Lang started talking to it.
"King Kong, today I want to tell you something. In fact, with your current strength, you can easily defeat the eight hundred year old Dang Kang."
When Wang Lang mentioned the eight hundred years of Dang Kang, King Kong's face turned grim. The smile on his face disappeared, and his spirit and energy also dropped.
Ignoring the change in King Kong's expression, Wang Lang continued speaking.
"Brother did not lie to you. What I said was all true. With your strength, you can easily defeat it. But because you are afraid of it, you have fear in your heart and dare not fight it, so you lose."
"Today, I will explain it to you. King Kong, you just said that when you were one or two years old, it was difficult to hunt exotic animals. You could only eat wild fruits and vegetables."
"Back then, you couldn't even defeat the most common beasts because you were too young and too weak. But now, you've grown up and become stronger. Can you hunt as you please?"
"A month ago, all the beef, mutton, and venison we ate were hunted by you."
Roar, roar, roar… Roar, roar, roar…
King Kong growled in agreement.
After a brief pause, Wang Lang continued, "From this we can see that when you were young you were too weak to hunt, but after you became stronger, you can hunt very easily."
"It's the same with the eight hundred year old Dang Kang. You couldn't beat it when you were young, which is normal because you were very small and weak back then. But now you are much stronger. As long as you are willing to fight it, you can definitely beat it very easily. Just like hunting yak and hundred year old gazelle very easily."
"Brother, do you understand what I'm saying?"
King Kong stared with his big eyes, looking down at Wang Lang.
Roar, roar, roar… Roar, roar, roar…
King Kong shouted with a low roar.
"I understand, but that 800-year-old Dang Kang is too big and too powerful. I can't defeat it!"
As he spoke, King Kong raised his two big hands and drew a big circle in the air.
After understanding King Kong's meaning, Wang Lang spoke directly again.
"King Kong, you are wrong. Now you are very powerful and can definitely defeat the 800-year-old Dang Kang very easily. Because when you were a child, it almost killed you countless times. So you are afraid of it, you are terrified of it, and you dare not fight it."
"But big brother tells you, as long as you dare to fight it, you can definitely defeat it easily. The eight hundred years old Dang Kang is not as powerful and invincible as you think."
"Brother, didn't I easily defeat the eight hundred year old Dang Kang today?"
Having said that, Wang Lang looked up and stared at King Kong, then continued speaking.
"King Kong, you should remember. When we first met, my brother was very weak. At that time, my brother couldn't even beat a rabbit in the forest."
"But only half a month later, Big Brother was able to go hunting with you. At that time, Big Brother could not only hunt cattle and oxen, but he could even defeat a hundred-year-old gazelle in a one-on-one fight."
"More than half a month later, we went to the mountainous area there. By that time, my brother could easily defeat the 300-year-old snow wolf."
As he spoke, Wang Lang pointed due west.
Then, Wang Lang continued: "And now you have seen that today, Big Brother can easily defeat the 800-year-old Dang Kang that you are so afraid of."
"You are just like my elder brother, your strength is constantly increasing. My elder brother's strength has only increased for less than two months, while your strength has indeed increased for more than three years. Since my elder brother can easily defeat the eight hundred year old Dang Kang, then you can definitely do it too."
At this time, Wang Lang discovered that King Kong's eyes had changed greatly. It was obvious that he had heard everything he said.
Wang Lang was very happy, as what he thought was indeed correct.
If it is explained based on what King Kong has experienced himself and what happens around him, it can indeed help him understand better.
However, Wang Lang also had an idea in his mind.
Talking or explaining alone will not achieve the best effect; King Kong must experience it himself.
Only by letting it defeat Dang Kang, a powerful alien beast, can it wake up from the nightmare of its childhood, break the shadow in its heart, truly regain its confidence and courage, and truly transform!
