Chapter 32: The Fragrance of Books
Xie Xiaoman looked at the bag full of pills in front of him, and the local tyrant suddenly felt spontaneous.
If you have money, it is a waste not to spend it, not to mention that for Xie Xiaoman, the external things in the world are not important, and hard work is the right way.
She needed to save time, so Xie Xiaoman didn't choose to set up her own stall to sell, and asked someone else to sell on her behalf, which naturally became the best choice.
Although the income on the money may be less, it is enough to save time, which is an important thing.
Since Guo Pu's disappearance, a sense of crisis has been haunting her, although she has never said it, but in the silence, she has already accumulated a lot of things.
Xie Xiaoman knew that not only himself, but also Xu Zhefeng and Sister Xianglan, they were all like this.
Therefore, Xu Zhefeng will keep trying to be quiet, and Sister Xianglan will try hard to pretend to be calm.
On the surface, there are no waves, but in fact there is a turbulent undercurrent, which is the world they live in......
Previously, after discussing the matter of selling the Fu seal with Wu Selling Fu from the Sect Academy, she went to buy a lot of pills.
Increase cultivation, unless you can have a fate and encounter something like the previous Lanyue Tower, the fastest way is the pill.
How should the power of faith be accumulated? Xie Xiaoman didn't have much clue about this matter.
The easiest way is to create a folk belief group such as Taiping Dao, like Zhang Jiao in the late Han Dynasty, which is to put it bluntly, to establish a sect. But how do you start with this kind of thing? Xie Xiaoman is completely confused, he can't just drag someone on the street, just let him join me to teach, right?
Again. Starting a sect and establishing a sect, Xie Xiaoman has a moral dilemma. In her humble opinion, most of these are deceptive things. There is no way to falsify things, and they are used to fool the ignorant people, and even if you think about it, this kind of thing is already despicable.
What's more, even if they really break this moral dilemma, they think of some excellent doctrine that makes the people kneel and worship themselves...... Hey! This kind of thing is just thinking about it. You'll get goosebumps all over your body, it's too uncomfortable.
Well, the easiest and most straightforward way. Or spitting with elixir. Now that there is a bazaar from the sect, the elixir has also become something that can be obtained with money. Sister An Zi gave herself two boxes of copper coins, which were enough to buy pills for a while.
Selling talismans can also supplement some income slightly, although not much. But the way to think about it in the future is to be.
Take out a Huakun Pill. Stuffed directly into his mouth, Xie Xiaoman condensed his energy, but after two breaths, the medicinal effect had been completely absorbed by the body.
Then there is another one, and the cycle continues.
After buying a total of twenty pills of Hua Kun Pill from the sect, one pill of the pill can increase the cultivation by five days, but in a quarter of an hour, Xie Xiaoman's cultivation will increase by another hundred days.
Slightly spitting to get used to it. Feeling the remnants of the aura in his body again, Xie Xiaoman threw a pair of five-stone scattered medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace. Then he began to write the sigils.
Because of the battle with others during the day, Xie Xiaoman does not have much aura left in his body now, and the intermediate rune seal cannot be written.
took out the yellow paper, dipped it in cinnabar, Xie Xiaoman wrote thirteen primary talisman seals casually, put down the pen, leaned against the wall, and gasped for a while.
Xu Zhefeng happened to wake up from his sleep and saw this scene.
"You also said that I should not work so hard, I really want to work hard, I don't know who it is." Xu Zhefeng looked at her pale face and said.
Xie Xiaoman waved his hand casually: "I'm not desperate, but obsessive-compulsive." Anyway, the aura is a thing, and it will recover almost after sleeping overnight, so you don't need to use it in vain. ”
"Aren't you afraid that someone will come to you for trouble when your aura is exhausted?" Xu Zhefeng didn't say who "someone" was, but Xie Xiaoman heard it.
She was slightly silent and nodded: "You're right, I was negligent. Now that I am the only one in the family who can protect everyone, I shouldn't dissipate the aura at will. ”
Xu Zhefeng frowned: "I don't feel comfortable listening to what you say, I'm the man here." ”
"With your qualifications, when you can really cultivate, I'm afraid it won't be long before we have to rely on you." Xie Xiaoman remembered Xu Zhefeng's superior ability in Fu Seal and smiled slightly.
"Yes." Xu Zhefeng responded lightly.
Xie Xiaoman looked at him and knew that there was no way to persuade him about some things, and for the people who were in it, those words of consolation were really no different from cool words.
Moreover, although she has not been in contact with Xu Zhefeng for a long time, she has some understanding of his temperament.
He is a proud man.
Where do proud people need the sympathy of others? This kind of useless flood of feelings is just an insult to people like Xu Zhefeng.
"I'm a person who doesn't speak flattering words, and I have always understood very little about the things in the immortal cultivation world. Your comprehension of the talisman is above mine. But people like me have been hearing a lot of praise for my talent recently, so ...... What I said before is only based on the above inference, and does not mean anything else. Xie Xiaoman said lightly, "Originally, the only book we could refer to was "Scattered Cultivation Record", this time in Congzong Academy, it is said that there is a place similar to the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, I will try to find some books, you and I will use them, and see if there is any help." ”
After that, Xie Xiaoman didn't say anything more, stretched out his hand to control the size of the flame of the alchemy furnace, and then made a bunk on the floor, ready to sleep.
"Thank you." Xu Zhefeng's ethereal voice came.
"Hmm." Xie Xiaoman responded very slightly, as if there was nothing.
……
……
It rained early in the morning, but by the time Xie Xiaoman went out, the rain had stopped.
Walking on the slightly wet ground, she thought about what she was going to do today.
Selling talismans, buying pills, and finding books...... It seems that there are many books to find, in addition to Xu Zhefeng's cultivation, but also to see if there is a suitable pill for his cultivation at this stage.
Although Hua Kun Dan can be used continuously, for himself, the effect is not as obvious as before. After all, it is a primary elixir, and at this point, it may not be bad to eat it in batches, but if it is just a waste of time to refine one in one night, it will be a bit chicken.
"Scattered Cultivation Records" is a very comprehensive book, it can be said that it is all-encompassing, but there is no too profound thing.
Therefore, Xie Xiaoman must find other books, whether it is alchemy, talismans, or even some knowledge related to Feng Shui, she must know some and understand some things. Because you may need it at any time.
One thing that needs to be anxious is the book on the installation of spiritual walls.
In order to avoid that when she is not at home, there will be people like Wu Wei who will go to find trouble, and she must do something.
Even if you can't resist them, you can be like an alarm bell and send an alarm to yourself from afar.
Because of this, Xie Xiaoman took the lead in thinking of the Spirit Wall, which is something that can be seen every day, but he has no idea how it was set up and what kind of function it has.
Most of the spiritual walls in Jiankang City, as a human being, she can travel freely, but some, especially the several spiritual walls in the inner layer of the palace, although they are very far away, Xie Xiaoman can also feel an inexplicable sense of rejection. Even if she didn't walk to the side, Xie Xiaoman could guess that she would definitely not be able to easily pass through those spirit walls.
How to set up a spiritual wall around the residence that can prevent Wu Wei and others, this matter has become Xie Xiaoman's top priority.
Hurried to the sect courtyard, knocked on the door, handed over the waist card, and the person who came to open the door was still the old man from yesterday.
Xie Xiaoman said hello, consulted the location of the library building again, and then walked to find a way after thanking him.
The library building is not called this name, and the plaque reads "Reading Heaven Pavilion" three big characters, reading all the world, very subtle and domineering taste.
The door was closed, and there didn't seem to be any one patronizing, or maybe it was just because Xie Xiaoman came too early.
Against the light of the morning sun, she looked up at the huge six-story pavilion, and realized that she had been in Jiankang City for so long, and she had sat on the roof many times, but she had never noticed this huge building.
His eyes lit up for a moment, Xie Xiaoman suddenly realized something, and looked around.
Sure enough, the surroundings of this Yuetian Pavilion were shrouded in a layer of smoke every day. This smoke is extremely thin, but once you take a step, even if it is only a small step of more than ten centimeters, the entire building is covered by this seemingly light smoke and dust, and it is no longer visible to the naked eye!
With spiritual sense, I feel that there is indeed an aura in this thin smoke! I'm afraid this is another type of spirit wall!
Xie Xiaoman's heart suddenly beat twice, and he was a little excited and happy for a while, and he couldn't wait to learn this exercise immediately.
Without hesitation, Xie Xiaoman stepped forward and reached out to push through the wooden door of the Heavenly Pavilion, but did not push it.
The gate did not move, and an aura appeared like a wave of water, surging and fading in all directions.
"Use your waist card to open the door." A voice came from behind him, "Don't take the book inside with you when you go out, otherwise you will activate the spirit array, and you will be killed by the formation, and others will not be able to save you." ”
Xie Xiaoman turned around and saw a familiar figure, it was Liu Chuan who he saw in the council yesterday.
"Thank you." Xie Xiaoman nodded at him, and was about to take out his waist card, but he saw him walking slowly, and with a flick of his hand, the door was open.
Liu Chuan didn't look at her again, bowed slightly when he passed by Xie Xiaoman's side, then floated into the door, turned around and disappeared.
Xie Xiaoman's hand holding the waist card and stagnating in mid-air was a little embarrassed, but looking at the dense scrolls in front of him like a library in the future, this embarrassment was immediately replaced by joy and excitement from the heart.
As soon as he stepped into the pavilion, the door behind him slowly closed without the slightest friction or creaking sound.
Yuetian Pavilion is already very old, but it does not look old. On the contrary, she is like a young woman in her thirties and forties, the years have only added grace and grace to her, and the careful questions at the corners of her eyes have only added maturity and charm to her.
Especially for Xie Xiaoman today, these crisscrossed bookcases, thick and ancient books, and the fragrance of books that sneak in with the wind have all become the most seductive things in the world. (To be continued......)
