Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Book Pavilion
After the sister flower left, Ye Zi also walked out of her yard.
Through the brief conversation just now, she learned that the Ye family had a book pavilion, which contained a lot of cultivation materials and books, and the Ye family disciples could usually go and borrow one every month.
There are too many things she doesn't know about this world, and she needs to make up for it, how can she make up for it a month? Thinking about it, her feet turned around and headed in the direction of Ye Tao's yard.
After coming out of Ye Tao's yard, she already had an extra token in her hand.
In the small courtyard next to the Ye family's treasury, the book pavilion is a four-story tower about seven zhang high, and there are several wings scattered around the courtyard.
At this time, the two Ye family disciples on duty outside the library were standing in front of the tower talking about something, and when they heard the movement of someone walking in, they all raised their eyes in unison, and after recognizing Ye Zi, they both stepped forward and saluted casually, "I've seen Gao Zu." ”
Ye Zi nodded indifferently, her eyes and thoughts were on the library at the moment, and she was in no mood to pay attention to anything else.
"I'm going to go in and read a book, this is the ancestor's token."
She handed the token she had asked for from Ye Tao to the two of them. They looked at it carefully, and returned their hands to Ye Zi, and one of the disciples stepped forward with a much more respectful attitude.
"Gaozu, please come with me."
Ye Zi nodded faintly, and under the leadership of the other party, stepped on the stairs leading to the tower.
The entire staircase is in a circular upward shape, probably to protect the books from moisture, and the bottom layer is full of thick stumps one foot high, which densely support the entire tower.
As soon as I stepped into the library on the second floor, I saw that it was densely packed with bookshelves, and a strong smell of books and ink mixed with the smell of camphor wood came to my face.
On the right side of the room against the wall there was a staircase leading to the third floor, and the staircase was sealed by a white shield that seemed to be forbidden.
"Can't you go to the third floor?" Ye Zi asked casually.
The disciple who led the way was a little embarrassed, and it stands to reason that he could go up with this token, but Ye Zi's identity was too special, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while whether to let him go or not.
"Forget it." The books on the second floor alone were enough for her to look through for a while, "What's the third floor?" ”
"It's a variety of basic exercises." Seeing that Ye Zi gave up the idea of going up to the third floor. The disciple who led the way breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly explained.
"What about the fourth floor?"
"The fourth floor is a high-level exercise that the entire family has treasured for thousands of years."
Hearing this, Ye Zi suddenly smiled at him, "Okay." I'll take a look on the second floor, so you can go out first. ”
"Okay, Gaozu, please take care of yourself."
The disciple who led the way quickly left, and Ye Zi turned his head to look at this book pavilion seriously.
It seems that the Ye family does have some heritage, which can be seen from the scale of this book pavilion. A rough count. There are thirty bookshelves neatly erected here, and each shelf is stacked with at least two hundred books, so that there are six or seven thousand books in total!
Boy! After reading these books, she can also become half a jack of all trades, right?
Although she is now a second-level Qi refining cultivator, she still knows very little about cultivation.
She didn't even know what kind of spiritual root she was now, because no one had told her.
In other words. Since cultivating all the way, there is no shortage of opportunities and treasures around her, but she only lacks a mentor and helpful friend to guide her from the side.
Now, she had to pin her hopes on the books in this library, hoping that they would solve the doubts and confusions in her heart.
Ye Zi closed his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and opened his eyes again, with a flash of perseverance in his eyes. Walking to the first shelf, he solemnly picked up a book and flipped through it carefully.
This book is a miscellaneous book. The main purpose is to introduce the layout of the entire Higashikawa. From the above leaves, I knew that the original Sifang City was only a barren area in the Dongchuan Cultivation Realm, and the further west it went, the richer the aura and resources became.
If so. So why did these families prefer to settle here in Sifang City rather than develop west?
This question just came to her mind, and the next book she opened was to introduce the distribution of the power of the entire Dongchuan Xiuzhen family.
It turned out that in the area with richer spiritual power and richer resources, the more large Xiuzhen families in Panhuan, the greater their power. Especially in the mountains where spiritual veins are hidden underground. There are often various sects large and small, and various forces are intertwined, and the power struggle and resource plundering between each other are also more intense, such as the small family in Sifang City where there is no place at all.
Open the next book, which is to introduce the distribution and number of various sects in the entire Dongchuan.
There are thousands of well-known and unknown sects, large and small. Of course, some small sects even have only a dozen people.
This book specifically introduces a sect called "Daxian Gate". There were never more than twenty of their members, and they were all mixed together with some small cultivators, who were under the name of "Great Immortals" and enjoyed the admiration and worship of mortals in the mundane world. Occasionally, they also relied on some small spells to cure some minor ailments for mortals, spread some rain or something, and those mortals worshiped them as gods, and beautiful women, silver, and treasures were offered to them in an endless stream.
But what is even more strange is that although their behavior is despised and spurned by countless monks, and they also exile themselves to the mundane world for pleasure, self-indulgence, and wanton pleasure, their cultivation still rises steadily, making people angry and helpless.
Seeing this, Ye Zi couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, there is no fixed path to cultivation, this kind of leisurely and freewheeling is also a different kind of cultivation, right?
Turning it back further, it is to introduce the deeds of the three super sects of Dongchuan, and Ye Zi can't help but look seriously.
The mountains with the strongest aura and the most abundant resources in the entire Dongchuan are the Tai'a Mountains, Jingyang Mountains, and Fengyang Mountains. The three mountain ranges form a three-legged trend, located in the most central position of the entire Dongchuan. Firmly dominating these three giant mountain ranges, the three major super sects are the Tianji Gate, the Red Feather Gate, and the Fengyun Sect.
Seeing this, Ye Zi couldn't help but think of the doctors he met a few days ago, they were the disciples of the Tianji Sect. Especially the doctor who said that he saved people for his own cultivation, so Ye Zi is still impressed. It seems that Tianjimen is indeed famous, otherwise it would not be able to teach such a disciple.
The next books I read are some records of the establishment, rise, decline or collapse of some families and sects, which feel a bit like modern history books.
These things were not of much use, and the leaves were hastily flipped over and put down.
A whole day passed, and she barely finished the first book on the shelf. Although she can read ten lines at a glance now, she can turn over nearly two hundred books. She couldn't resist the dizziness and blackness in front of her.
Despite this, she was still excited! Reading books is really efficient, this whole day's work. She has a certain understanding of the entire Dongchuan family power and sect organization, not to mention how thorough, but at least she has an impression in her mind.
At this rate, she would be able to read all the books on the second floor in a month, but she only borrowed this token for three days. What should I do?
Even for three days, Ye Tao was already very reluctant, if she asked for another month to borrow, it is estimated that the other party would be furious?
If she had to borrow it for a month, Ye Tao might not agree, but the problem was that if he took the opportunity to ask her for something else, it would be a little troublesome.
What's more, she doesn't want to get involved too much with the other party, even if she has to finish reading the book here, she has to think of other ways.
Speaking of reading. She remembered that there were a few jade slips in Mo Hanyan's Qiankun bag, but all of them were prohibited, and she couldn't crack them. Thinking of Yu Jian, she suddenly remembered the black jade Peilai.
Alas!
Ye Zimeng slapped his forehead, how could he forget the jade pendant space?
In order to rest his brain, Ye Zi only cultivated for an hour that night, and after entering the jade pendant space and watering it, he went to the Phantom Spirit Treasure Hall to talk to Zhuzhu.
"Zhuzhu, the last time I saw you gnawing on the yellow essence jade tablet, are you hungry?" The leaves touch Zhuzhu's head. asked with a smile.
It stands to reason that the machine spirit will not be hungry, but the last time she saw him gnawing on the jade tablet with her own eyes, she imagined from time to time in her mind that the other party was so hungry that tears were in her eyes and her cheeks were sunken.
"Hmm." Zhu Zhu raised her big black eyes. He stared at her for a moment, his little hands squeezing her fingers tightly.
"Will you be hungry too?" Ye Zi's eyes couldn't help but widen, and he was amazed in his heart.
"Hmm. I've been hungry since the last time my aura was sucked away by the bad guys, and I haven't been full......"
"You can eat enough by gnawing the jade stele?" She asked, staring suspiciously at the other party's face.
"It's not." Zhu Zhu shook her head and pouted, "It can increase the spiritual power in my body." Makes me less hungry. ”
"Uh...... I see. ”
Ye Zi nodded understandingly, and turned her gaze to the yellow essence jade tablet in front of her, of course she would not tell him that it was her jade pendant that sucked the aura in his body, and at the same time, her eyes flashed with a sparkling light.
Such a large piece of yellow essence jade stele, I don't know how much aura it contains, if you can knock a few pieces down and put them in the space, will there be other changes in the space?
Taking a step back, even if there is no change, then at least it can add some spiritual power to the space, right?
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but act, her heart moved slightly, and with a soft "swish", a silver short sword appeared in her hand.
Zhuzhu watched the movements of the leaves curiously, and her big eyes were full of confusion.
"Sister, what are you going to do?"
Ye Zi tilted his head to him mysteriously and curled the corners of his lips, his eyes blinked slightly, "You'll know later, you put your hand to me yourself." With that, she broke free of the other party's hand and walked towards the jade tablet.
After approaching, Ye Zi circled around the jade tablet, chose a better position to start, took a deep breath, and the aura of his whole body suddenly moved, and he kept the short sword in a steady stream.
"Hum~"
The silver sword lit up with white light in a short moment, and the sword body trembled slightly, as if it was about to destroy everything that stood in its way.
This short sword was bought later in Guangju Building, and the previous one had long been sucked into scrap metal by the Jade Pendant Space.
With the continuous blessing of the aura, the white light emitted by the sword body became stronger and stronger, until it was as dazzling as the stars in the sky.
"Broken!"
Ye Zi let out a crisp shout, raised his sword and slashed diagonally towards the Yellow Essence Jade Tablet.
"Woo~"
"Bang dang!"
The moment the short sword and the jade tablet touched, a huge impact and eye-piercing sparks erupted violently.
Looking at everything in front of him, Ye Zi was dumbfounded and spoke. Only half of the hilt of the sword was left in her hand, the sword body was broken into several pieces, and it fell to the ground, and then looked at the Huang Jingyu stele, there was not even a scratch in the place where she had cut it.
She reached out in disbelief and touched it, and it was as smooth as a mirror.
What's going on?
Zhuzhu stared at her with black eyes, then looked at the jade tablet, followed her example, put her other little hand on the jade tablet and touched it, and finally grinned.
And his other little fat hand still didn't forget to stick tightly to Ye Zi's thigh, absorbing the golden spiritual power.
Ye Zi was stunned for a while with his mouth open, before he blinked and came back to his senses, turning his head to stare at Zhuzhu in disbelief.
Zhuzhu was frightened by her eyes, took a small step back, curled the corners of her mouth, and called out: "Sister? ”
"You open your mouth for me to see."
"Oh." Zhuzhu obediently opened her mouth wide, "Ah......hh
Ye Zi carefully looked at the teeth in his mouth that were neatly like small shells, and his eyes were full of puzzlement: it doesn't make sense, how can these little shell-like teeth be harder than her short sword mixed with refined iron? (To be continued.) )
