Chapter 149: Revisiting the Valley
The precious medicinal materials on the cliffs on both sides of the canyon were basically swept away by Jin Cheng, but the most of these medicinal materials were less than six hundred years old, and there was still no trace of the thousand-year-old wild ginseng, which was still a little disappointed in his heart.
Although the outer area is huge, there are a large number of medicinal herbs stored, there are many places he has not reached, but he does not have much hope, the next step Jin Cheng is ready to target those difficult to climb the lonely peaks, hoping to make some gains.
If you still can't find it, you can only pin your last hope on the core area of this mountain range, the mysterious death zone.
The sky gradually darkened, and today's medicine collection work could only end here, Jin Cheng rode the golden eagle and flew back. Looking at the rapid regression of the scenery under his feet, he was glad in his heart, if he went around the canyon at the previous speed, it was estimated that it would take a week to run, but now it was completed in four or five hours, which increased the efficiency dozens of times, the key is not to delay Jin Cheng to open the door every day to collect merit points.
In the next few days, Jin Cheng took the time to inspect those lonely peaks and mountains, and the results were not ideal, but the original number of jù increased, such as the number of wild ginseng in five hundred years reached ten, and the number of other medicinal materials also increased.
In the afternoon of this day, Jin Cheng came to the unknown river, and there was a valley on the bank of the river, which he had visited once. There was a cave in the cliff of the valley, and he had come here today to explore it.
Jumped off the back of the golden eagle and landed firmly at the entrance of the cave.
Jin Cheng stood at the entrance of the cave and let go of his divine sense, carefully probing the situation in the cave, the cave was more than twenty meters deep, curved, a naturally formed cave, and there was no such thing as an ambush.
Not far from the entrance of the cave there was a pile of rotting ropes and a rusty flying tiger claw, indicating that the cave had been visited by people before, and had not even left since they came here.
The further you go inside, the more cobwebs there are, and apparently no one has been in this cave for a long time.
Jin Cheng held a flashlight in his left hand and brandished a firewood knife in his right hand to open the way, and came to the deepest part of the cave, which was a hall with an area of about thirty or forty square meters.
In the corner of the hall, there was a skeleton scattered on the ground, Jin Cheng took a cursory look, according to the analysis of the shape of the pelvis, this was a male skeleton, dead for more than fifty years.
The rest of the place was empty, and there was no trace of any daily necessities, and Jin Cheng guessed that it was likely that this person came to this cave to wait for death.
Jin Cheng came to the corner of the cave, took out a small hoe from the space ring, and dug it into the ground.
When he dug a foot deep, a small rotting wooden box appeared, and in the wooden box was a boxy oilcloth wrap.
After taking out the package, he continued to dig the hole wide, and then collected the scattered bones and threw them into the hole to bury them, which was also regarded as a reward for the deceased.
After all, he left something behind, although he didn't want to be found.
If it weren't for Jin Cheng's divine sense to investigate, he really wouldn't have found this buried package.
It is conceivable that the person who buried the package at that time did not want it to see the light of day again.
After the package was opened, it was found that there were several books inside, and a quaint and slightly moldy smell came to my face.
There are six books in total, all of them are ancient books in thread binding, the paper is yellowed, and it looks like they are not young.
The top book is a medical book, the title of the book is very unfamiliar, the handwriting is a little blurry, "Xuan Yi Collection", Jin Cheng searched his memory, but did not find the relevant records, he thought of a possibility - ancient medical books.
It's just that this book is damaged, and he doesn't dare to touch it with his hands at all, and when he looks closely, he finds that these books have become a pile of confetti, which will turn into countless pieces as long as the wind blows.
He carefully wrapped the tarpaulin again and returned it to its original shape. During the whole process, even if Jin Cheng was very psychological, he still couldn't help but have a rapid heartbeat, for fear that he would overexert himself and ruin these ancient books.
Don't think about it, these ancient books are definitely of astonishing value, Jin Cheng didn't think about taking them away, but at least he had to understand the contents of the books before they turned into dust.
The feeling of ancient medicine to Jin Cheng is very mysterious, and now that he can get close to the ancient medicine books, of course he doesn't want to miss it, while understanding ancient medicine, he can learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses and improve himself, why not!
Jin Cheng took out a chair from the space ring, found a flat ground and put it on, and sat on it like an old monk settled, this sitting was a few hours, until the sun sank in the west and the sunset was full of sky, he stood up, breathed a long sigh of relief, the corners of his mouth rose, and nodded with satisfaction.
Placing the chair back in the spatial ring, he took out a katana and slashed it against the oilcloth wrap. The package split in two, and the six books inside became a pile of powdered paper scraps, scattered all over the floor.
I believe that it will not be long before these confetti will turn into dirt and disappear forever, fulfilling the wish of the cave master.
Summoned the golden eagle at the entrance of the cave, and on the way back, he had been sorting out the text information he had harvested in his mind.
Cheng Dù, who was so rotten that the ancient books could not be read, he could only use his divine sense to scan them page by page, a little bit deeper, this process was very delicate, so it took time and energy, Jin Cheng felt that these three hours were more tiring than running in the mountains for a day.
Two of the six books are medical books, and the remaining four are ancient martial arts, which belong to different factions, but these four books have no covers, and I don't know which sects or families these four exercises belong to, but it can be seen from the content that these exercises are very profound and should have an extraordinary origin.
The cover of the book is missing, which may be deliberately done by the cave master, like him, who has a variety of advanced ancient martial arts at the same time, and the more convincing explanation is that it was stolen or robbed. You must know that it is extremely difficult for others to get one of them, let alone the four complete ancient martial arts cultivation techniques.
After obtaining these books, the cave master destroyed the paper that could explain the provenance and took possession of it completely.
It is said that greed is not rotten, a person only needs to specialize in one kind of exercises, it is impossible, it is absolutely self-defeating, that can only be explained that the cave master uses these ancient martial arts as a reference or a reference to achieve a certain purpose.
Jin Cheng was not interested in a few ancient martial arts books, but he just kept them in his mind, and the focus of his attention was on those two medical books.
I have to say that ancient medicine has unique features, first, in terms of treating injuries, these have a certain reference role for Jin Cheng; The second is to study the discovery of some new acupuncture points, such as: hypnotic acupoints, which can make people enter a state of shallow hypnosis; The Hidden Hair Acupoint can stimulate the potential to double a person's combat power, and the maintenance time is fifteen minutes, after which it will enter a period of weakness for forty-eight hours.
In addition, there are more yin damage to the yang acupoint, yin hyper acupoint, can make men and women extremely excited, tireless indulgence in the battle, the duration is related to the victim's body element, but the longest is not more than 72 hours, the male exhaustion death, the female exhaustion and death.
