Chapter 16 Downstairs in the Library
From time to time there was a sound of turning pages in the silent building, and the thin figure of the robe was almost hidden in the darkness under the dim light at a few o'clock, her eyes were focused, her fingertips quickly circulated on the pages, and a handful of various books were stacked next to her, including basic spells, intermediate system methods, alchemy, sword techniques, and sword techniques, and the formations were classified and placed in an orderly manner.

The one in Xiao Ying's hand was the basic formation, and the intricate and distorted runes and lines jumped in her eyes, colliding with each other, and then returned to calm in a moment, as if engraved in her mind.
It is like the stars in the vast universe rotating and orbiting at the same time according to their respective orbits, forming a magnificent group, and the project is vast and orderly.
These boring and cumbersome runes and mysteries in the eyes of others had a natural attraction to Xiao Ying, and they slept in the depths of her mind, and as soon as they were provoked, they all opened the floodgates and collided with the divine soul, so that she couldn't help but continue to organize and remember them.
In this way, she had been here for a day to see the basic formation, from the bustle at the beginning to the rustling later, and finally there was only the sound of turning pages in silence.
In the past, in the inner gate of the Xiao family's hidden world, in order to train her, the elders only let her come into contact with ice-based spells, in order to defeat the Ling family's fire-based genius Ling Li consistently. Coupled with the Cangyi technique that she secretly practiced, all the external spells she came into contact with were only these two types, but later she was taken by the ice spirit root, her right hand was abolished, and the ice spells could not be used, and Cangyi became her only reliance.
And all the formation's memories seem to be just dusty, always existing, but difficult to remember.
This feeling is like a lone moon hanging in the vast sky, watching the boundless night alone, and like a single tree floating in the vast sea, floating and adrift alone in the vast unknown of the sea.
Unconsciously, late at night, cotton clouds shrouded the moonlight outside the library, and a handful of shattered starlight was scattered near the Milky Way. Under the dome, everything is silent, and the mandala flowers on the banks of the hillside river quietly bloom enchantingly.
Xiao Ying's figure was silent in the light, and between the flicking of his thin white fingers, the books on one side were piled higher and higher.
In the early morning of the next day, as soon as the hunchbacked uncle entered the library building, he saw Xiao Ying in the pile of books, and his eagle-like eyes suddenly showed surprise, and then he retracted his expression and said,
"You've sorted them all?"
Xiao Ying didn't even raise his head, and continued to look at the book in his hand, with a slight bloodshot in his lowered eyes.
"Nope." Xiao Ying's hand was still turning the page at a high speed.
"And what about these?" The hunchbacked uncle pointed to the five series of spell books that were piled up, almost blocking the entrance,
"Can you read the formation book?"
Xiao Ying didn't reply to him, put down the last basic spirit gathering array in his hand, stood up and twisted his neck,
"Are there any other formation books here?"
The hunched back straightened slightly, but it was still in vain, he looked at the formation book that Xiao Ying was reading, "Basic Formation", "Detailed Explanation of Runes", "Principles of Refining Array", "Precautions for Casting Refining Array", etc., are all basic formation knowledge, but it is not easy to understand.
In particular, the communication between different formations, the understanding of conceptual runes, and the rare confusion of the hunchbacked eagle's falcon-like eyes,
"Follow me."
The man led Xiao Ying to the inner layer of the formation area, this location was extremely remote, the pages and paper were yellowed, if it weren't for the fact that the library building was shrouded in dust removal arrays all year round, it almost made people think that the books would be covered with dust accumulated over the years.
took a copy of "Application of the Spirit Gathering Array", and the hunchbacked middle-aged man regained his sharp eyes,
"This is an intermediate formation that can be reached on the second floor, if you can make one after understanding, I will apply to add another 100 points to you, and I can give you the formation stone."
There are two kinds of application formations, one is the formation field that is physically cast, and the formation stone with the runes is used to place it according to the designated position, which can form a formation and affect the people, objects, and spiritual power in the field.
There is also a refining array cast by the divine soul, which directly uses the divine soul to carve the formation pattern in the mind, which can directly envelop the formation on the enemy, forming a physical or spiritual attack. However, this requires a very familiar understanding of the principles of the refining array, and casting it is extremely soul-consuming.
Obviously, the memory and casting requirements of the refining array are higher, so high that they may cause damage to the divine soul, but the corresponding benefit is that the casting time is significantly less. The high requirements of the refining array make its users extremely rare, and few can be snatched up by various sects and factions, so the refining array is known as one of the five most difficult five transformation divine paths in the world.
The hunchbacked man obviously thought that Xiao Ying had studied the formation before, so he would make such a request, after all, Xiao Ying's divine soul would not be weak, as can be seen from the five-series spell book that was sorted out overnight.
And the reward of 100 points is stingy, and recommending outstanding disciples to the sect, especially those who are in formation, alchemy, contemplation, and medical skills, will also be rewarded with at least 1,000 points. This is bullying the new disciple for not knowing the rules.
"Can I take this book back with me?" Xiao Ying looked a little tired, her face was slightly pale, her hair was hanging down, but her eyes were always fixed on the writing, she added a little dry lips and asked.
The hunchbacked man glanced at Xiao Ying's stunning but pale facial features, holding a kind of contempt for his superiors,
"Yes."
After Xiao Ying left, the day by day, the woman in green who had been here yesterday came to the library again, and discussed with the hunchbacked man in the corner I don't know what to do, I don't know the corner, Gan Ge, who was holding a knife in one hand and drinking wine in the other, was looking intently at the leaves flying outside the window.
Huoya Mountain is not far from the library building, but it is far away from Baicao Mountain, when Xiao Ying was concentrating on reading books in his residence, Luo Shi was still in the distant Baicao Mountain to remove insects and water.
In charge of the management of the Herb Department of Baicao Mountain was a short old man who was full of spirits, even half a cut shorter than Luo Shi, who was still growing his body. The short old man wore a hat all day long, saying that he could provide shade even if it didn't rain, but his skin was still as dark as ever.
The dark-skinned short old man is surnamed Bai, and everyone calls him Lao Bai, and if he is called like this, he will be happy.
Lao Bai taught Luo Shi a lot of things, such as water resistance, the heart of things, plant life repair and the like, although simple, but it is a very important foundation, Luo Shi did not dare to slack off.
However, due to the preciousness of the herbs, the cultivation of the disciples of the Character Realm is insufficient, and the control of the elements is not strong, many times, the Imperial Technique can only be practiced in leisure time, and cannot be directly used to grow herbs, in case the herbs are destroyed by a mistake in casting spells.
"Ganoderma lucidum grass is one of the basic herbs for refining Zhuji Dan, which is used to get rid of the restless elements of strong herbs, is cool, likes water, and has the effect of calming the nerves and removing fire."
Lao Bai twisted his neck and sat on a boulder to introduce the habits of Lingzhi grass to the disciples who took care of the herbs, while Luo Shi at the bottom shook his head and nodded perfunctorily.
Every time she talked about the habits of herbs, she would always be distracted, Lao Bai began to emphasize the importance of herbal habits angrily, until one time when she was pulled out, she smoothly recited the herbal habits that Lao Bai said, and added a lot of content that even he didn't know, the disciple Gu in the field looked at Lao Bai with a surprised and confused face, Lao Bai's face was red, and he said,
"I'll check what you said!"
With a short step, he returned to the boulder to give a lecture. The matter is closed.
Later, he also secretly went to discuss other ways of using herbs with Luo Shi.
Since then, he no longer cares about Luo Shi, even if Luo Shi later went to practice the art of keeping things when he introduced the habits of herbs, and even used the water control technique to artificially rain on the herbs. Lao Bai's heart trembled a few times and saw that the herbs were safe and sound, so he simply opened his eyes and closed them, when he didn't see them.
The days passed quickly, half a month passed in the blink of an eye, Luo Shi became a little darker than before, but it looked like her face was also a little ruddy, she followed Lao Bai to learn a lot of spells, and established a deep friendship with the disciples of the Baicao Mountain Herbal Medicine Department, the Ganoderma lucidum grass matured in advance, Luo Shi also returned to her residence, she didn't see Xiao Ying for half a month, she really missed Xiao Ying's bewitching little face that made people want to ravage.
On the other side, Xiao Ying finally finished reading the book after studying like masochism day and night, and three days later she returned the "Application of the Spirit Gathering Array" to the hunchbacked man, but she didn't ask for his array stone, the hunchbacked man glanced at Xiao Ying with a dark face and disdain, drew a hundred points to her identity jade pendant, and waved away.
