【023】of the Brute

As a fellow senior, Xu Lingkong instructed Ye Qingxuan for a long time before saying goodbye to everyone early the next morning.

The first time I met Uncle Xu Lingkong, he was a very face-saving person, which can be seen from the fact that he returned to Kunwu Mountain and wanted to get back "Yue Ruyu".

The old Taoist priest, who was so poor that he wanted to give Ye Qingxuan a welcome gift, and the old Taoist priest who had nothing to do wanted to give Ye Qingxuan his precious donkey that had not fallen to his death.

Damn, I already have a cow!

Ye Qingxuan desperately refused this mention, the old Taoist priest obviously looked a little reluctant, and finally the old Taoist priest slapped his thigh, took out a rag from his arms, and solemnly gestured and said: "This is a beast skin that I got from the remains of the predecessor who got the [Proud Xunfeng Jue] in the land of Nanban, except for a sword, a secret book and this broken animal skin, there is nothing left on that senior.

And the ghost drawing charm on this animal skin, as well as these strange beasts, I don't know what it means, but I think it should be a barbarian thing, and it is quite important...... Because I once accidentally stabbed this picture with a sword, the sword of Jiupin actually left only a white mark on it, the origin of this animal skin is extraordinary, and what can be recorded on it is also extraordinary.

I see that you love to explore, and you are here to explore, so I will give you this animal skin map as a gift, hoping that one day you can understand the secrets. ”

When Xu Lingkong took out this broken animal skin, Ye Qingxuan's eyes released some strange colors, and when he took this animal skin with his own hands. It was confirmed on the spot that this thing was confirmed. It turned out to be the treasure of the barbarians I had seen back then-"Wild Beast Map".

It uses barbarian texts and pictures to record the various strange skills and superb exercises in the heyday of the barbarians, which is what Mu Zhe said when he saw this picture in Ningbi Villa, Ye Qingxuan had almost forgotten about it, and because Zhan Yu's meridians and feet were abolished, he mentioned the "meridian grafting thaumaturgy" in it, and only then did he think of this treasure, and what was even more unexpected was that today he got a piece from a senior who returned from the wilderness.

Ye Qingxuan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked the old Taoist.

Xu Lingkong was a little stunned. He said, "Huh, it's strange, don't you blame me for fooling you with some strange things, but thank me? I can see that you are still sincere...... What's going on?"

Ye Qingxuan will not tell him the significance of this animal skin for the time being, because this important meaning is actually not very important to Ye Qingxuan, after all, this thing only has the same belief significance as a holy object for the barbarians, for the Chinese people. It is only possible to achieve political rule over the barbarians, which is beneficial to the imperial court and to individuals...... Well, for individuals, to give it to the barbarians, you can also get great support and sincere friendship from the barbarians. In exchange for great benefits.

"Of course I want to thank Uncle Xu!" Ye Qingxuan put the animal skin on his chest and said excitedly: "Although I don't know what this thing does, the Nine Rank Sword looks like it's just a white mark, doesn't that mean that I put it on my chest like this." Doesn't that mean an extra layer of protection?"

Xu Lingkong was stunned, he had never considered the value of this animal skin from this perspective. If you use it like that, it's really a great thing......

Xu Lingkong laughed, sighing Ye Qingxuan's whimsy, this kind of thing, if you change a martial artist to get it, it will be hidden as a peerless treasure, for fear of breaking it, I didn't expect Ye Qingxuan to use it as a shield.

"Okay, good, no matter how you use it, this thing belongs to you, and I won't feel sorry if it is broken...... Xu Lingkong patted Ye Qingxuan's shoulder and said, "That's it, we'll have a meeting later!"

"Congratulations to Uncle Xu—"

Ye Qingxuan bowed, Xu Lingkong laughed and jumped on the back of the donkey, rode the little donkey upside down, and walked towards the west, which was the direction of Kunwu Mountain.

When Xu Lingkong disappeared at the turn of the official road, Jiang Shuihan, Wan Guotai and other brothers rushed over.

"Hey, Lao Qi, you are not interesting enough, your master and uncle are gone, and you don't ask us to come out to see us off, it seems that we are rude. Meng Yuanyun muttered and walked over.

Ye Qingxuan smiled back and said, "It's not that I don't call you out, it's that I see that my uncle doesn't want to call you out." ”

"Why, does your uncle hate us so much?" Duan Sanshi Qi asked.

Ye Qingxuan glanced at the road away and explained: "My master is too good-looking, and he is not rich in hand, so there are only a few bits and pieces on his body, so he has to give me any gifts." I was almost on my knees before he accepted the idea of giving me the donkey. It's been so me, and if you're all here, he's going to take off all his panties and give them to you?"

The crowd burst into laughter.

This old Taoist priest is indeed quite interesting.

Meng Yuanyun asked curiously: "Then you didn't ask for your uncle's donkey, what did he give you in the end?"

Ye Qingxuan glanced at everyone with a smile, and finally his eyes fell on Jiang Shuihan's body, and said, "Eighth brother and I have seen this thing before, you guys, but you have only heard of it......"

Everyone peeked at each other in amazement.

If this thing was not important, Ye Qingxuan would definitely not sell it.

And Jiang Shuihan, who was among the crowd, frowned, showed a speculative look, and muttered, "I've seen ...... And what everyone knows...... That is, I was alone with Brother Qi, and I had the privilege of meeting the brothers when they were not present. And it's something I've said to my brothers before, and it's very important......"

Jiang Shuihan's eyes lit up, revealing an unbelievable look, but he still asked guessfully: "The days when I was alone with Seventh Brother were two years ago, and it was the treasures I saw during the first encounter in Ningbi Villa to the time when Seventh Brother went down to Kunwu......

Ye Qingxuan smiled and nodded, such vague information can make the eighth child immediately guess, will there be a computer chip or something like that in the eighth child's head?

Jiang Shuihan thought for a while and asked lightly, "I guessed a few important things. Only the two of us have seen it, and the other brothers have not...... Can you give me another hint?"

"It's related to the barbarians!" Ye Qingxuan thought so. Jiang Shuihan must have guessed.

Sure enough, as soon as Ye Qingxuan finished speaking, Jiang Shuihan could not maintain his composure, and asked in surprise: "You got a copy of the Brute Beast Map!?"

"Oh, is there a barbarian treasure that reconnects the meridians?"

Everyone was stunned and hurriedly asked.

Ye Qingxuan smiled and took out the broken animal skin from his arms, its unsightly appearance, there were many traces of knives and axes on it, as well as traces of fire, and so on. Traumatized ......

But this thing is extremely extraordinary, enough to guide the hearts of the barbarians.

Jiang Shuihan took it in his hand, kept looking at it, and finally said: "It's really like "Brute Beast Diagram", have you confirmed it?"

Ye Qingxuan beckoned and choked. The eight-pinbi sword behind him fell into his hand, and he poked hard at the animal skin, and the animal skin slammed it, but it was not pierced at all.

"Oh, obedient!" Meng Yuanyun snatched it up, and said with a twinkle in his eyes: "This is really a baby! The eight-rank sword can't be pierced, and there is not even a trace, so it can't be a divine beast, right?"

Ye Qingxuan and Jiang Shuihan were stunned at the same time, grandma's, I hadn't thought about this problem.

The eight-rank sword does not leave any traces. And the Nine Rank Sword only left a white spot on it, could it be that only a divine soldier can break this thing? I'm afraid it's almost as if it's not a divine beast.

Jiang Shuihan snatched the "Fragment of the Brute Beast Diagram" back from Meng Yuanyun's hand, and looked at the "Brute Beast Diagram" carefully, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Meng Yuanyun, who was robbed of the treasure on the side, came over and mocked: "Eighth child, you grabbed it fast enough, but can you understand the barbarian language?"

Jiang Shuihan ignored Meng Yuanyun, but after a while, he handed the "Brute Beast Diagram Fragment" to Ye Qingxuan, and said with a frown: "Seventh brother, it seems that our big brother Mu Zhe didn't tell us the truth about some things......

Ye Qingxuan was silent and did not answer, but just clutched the animal skin, shook his head, and returned to the house with his brothers.

"Old eight, tell me quickly, what did your big brother Mu Zhe deceive you?" Meng Yuanyun, who was active in gossip cells, pulled Jiang Shuihan and asked questions as soon as he entered the house.

Jiang Shuihan smiled, and after everyone sat down together, he said slowly to Ye Qingxuan: "Back then, our eldest brother Mu Zhe said that this thing was a sacred relic of their barbarians, which is true, but only said that what was recorded on it was the sacrificial rituals of their barbarians and some thaumaturgy, I'm afraid it wasn't so simple......

"Why do you say that?" Ye Qingxuan was also confused in his heart, but he still wanted to hear Jiang Shuihan's opinion first.

Jiang Shuihan spread out the animal skin on the table, pointed to a few scars and said: "Brother Seventh tried just now, and the eighth-grade sword can't leave traces, but a few traces on it are enough to show that someone once used a weapon above the eighth-grade to cut this 'Brute Beast Diagram Fragment', otherwise there would never be such obvious traces, and what can leave traces should be a blow from a master above the innate level with all his might......"

The crowd nodded.

Those who can leave traces on this must be more powerful weapons, more powerful and stronger.

Jiang Shuihan continued: "If it is said that the barbarians fought each other for this treasure, and the traces left behind are reasonable, anyway, according to what Mu Zhe said, this thing is important to the barbarians, not to the Chinese. But I have to say that in this matter, Mu Zhe must have lied. Everyone, please look at this scar......"

Jiang Shuihan pointed to a mark on the animal skin and said, "This trace is a sword mark, not a sword and axe mark, as we all know, barbarians don't use swords...... In other words, a long time ago, this animal skin, the people who fought for it, were not only the barbarians themselves, but also the Chinese warriors......"

"That doesn't mean anything......," Duan Sanshi said, "Maybe the barbarians themselves hired a Chinese master to help a certain tribe snatch this treasure......

Meng Yuanyun nodded and said, "There is a possibility." But the third brother may not know that the 'Brute Beast Diagram Fragment' we saw at the beginning was found by Mo Yeli, the 'Barren Mountain Wild Elder', from the Yeli Temple in the 100,000 Great Mountains, and it was found on the remains of a Chinese master under a sacrificial well. In other words, this picture was grabbed by this master at that time. A Chinese master traveled thousands of miles to risk his life to rob foreign holy relics. Why?"

"Didn't everyone guess at the time? That person was a Nine Thunder True Person of the Shenxiao Sect, and he snatched the animal skin in order to get grafting thaumaturgy. It is to transplant the meridians of alien beasts on the body, so that when you practice the exercises, you can directly generate the [Thunder System] True Qi ......"

Jiang Shuihan said with a smile: "I remember that Brother Mu Zhe said so. But...... If not, how could the people of the Nine Thunder Dao know that the Yeli tribe had this animal skin map in their hands, and they happened to know that this thaumaturgy was recorded on this map...... Brother Mu Zhe said that at that time, "Wild Beast Map" was divided into six. Did the Nine Thunder Zhenren see the other five animal skins and confirm that there was no thaumaturgy on them before going to the temple of the Yeli Clan? I think the Nine Thunder Zhenren still don't have this ability......

Ye Qingxuan fell into deep thought.

This is indeed a doubt, it is impossible for the Nine Thunder True People to directly know that this thaumaturgy is on the animal skin in the hands of the Yeli tribe, unless someone from the barbarian tribe sues him. And the division of the barbarians back then, for the Nine Thunder Zhenren at that time, it was already hundreds of years ago, or even nearly a thousand years, how many people in the barbarian tribe now can know the specific information on the animal skin?

Jiang Shuihan continued: "Of course, this is all my guess. I don't know if Senior Xu has explained how he got the 'Brute Beast Diagram Fragment' that he taught you......"

Ye Qingxuan took a deep breath and said, "It was also when Master Xu was exiled to the land of the Southern Barbarians. Among the ruins discovered by accident, the ......" was found from the remains of a lost and savage Chinese warrior."

The crowd was in an uproar.

It's the "Wild Beast Map" that the Chinese warriors went to the South Barbarians to capture!

It's just too much of a coincidence......

Or rather, there's really something wrong with it!

According to Mu Zhe's explanation back then, this thing was divided into six pieces, which were cut by the major tribes when the barbarians were divided. Including the Yeli tribe who entered the 100,000 Great Mountains, there are six major tribes of barbarian tribes, that is, Mu Zhe's familiar barbarian tribe, and there is nothing like this holy object.

Now, the "Wild Beast Map" obtained from the Yeli tribe is placed in the familiar barbarian tribe, and the envoys sent by the Huangfu Dynasty and the warriors of the familiar barbarian are closely guarded. And at this time, which tribe does the piece he get belong to?

The wild Li animal's skin was the size of a tabletop. And at this time, the one in Ye Qingxuan's hand was almost one-third the size of that piece, could it be that it was cut from the animal skin of which tribe?

The sword of the nine pins can only cut out a white mark in the "Barbarian Beast Map", could it be that the barbarians cut it off with divine weapons?

Ye Qingxuan took a closer look at the edge of this animal skin, which was extremely irregular, as if it had been broken, rather than cut. And after looking around, the edges are all disconnected at about the same time, not one after another......

If this is a piece that was produced when the "Brute Beast Map" was split, does that mean that this is one of the six pieces of the year? If it is true, then which tribe of the barbarians has lost its treasure?

Or Mu Zhe at that time was completely lying, "The Barbarian Beast Map" was not divided into six pieces, but more pieces, but only six pieces remained in the hands of the barbarians, and the rest were obtained by masters of other nationalities......

Ye Qingxuan expressed his observations......

Jiang Shuihan said lightly: "Please allow me to make an inference, a bold inference! The Chinese warriors went all the way to the barbarians to find and snatch this "Barbarian Beast Map", not because of its political and religious significance, but to get practical benefits! And for the warriors, the biggest benefit in this world is the improvement of strength, and on this "Barbarian Beast Map", there may be a direct way to improve their strength, of course, it is not a strange technique such as 'grafting meridians', but it should be ......"

Jiang Shuihan's face changed, he was startled by his guess, and his face was silent.

"For what? Why do you go on?" this time, Ruhua, who had burned the fire of gossip, couldn't stand Jiang Shuihan's silence, and urged.

Meng Yuanyun pursed his lips and said, "What else can it be? What can make the innate powerhouse go to the domain to pursue his life is of course the supreme secret of the martial arts of 'Shattered Void'......"

"Shattering the Void!?"

The crowd's breath suddenly became short.

The acquisition of this secret is definitely not only helpful to the martial arts people of the last move, the knowledge that can shatter the void, even if it fails to make people break the void and go, but at least it is enough to make the person who gets it one of the best in the world in martial arts.

According to this conclusion, inference can also explain why this animal skin is so strong and precious. Just to record the sacrificial rituals and all kinds of thaumaturgy, any sturdy animal skin can be recorded, and it can be preserved long enough, it is really necessary to use such a beast skin that is already a nine-grade treasure to record.

Jiang Shuihan stroked the "Brute Beast Diagram Fragment" and said: "Perhaps, at that time, it was the foreign masters who knew the preciousness of this 'Brute Beast Diagram', or the tribe of the barbarian itself, in order to compete for the secret book of the 'Broken Void', and a conflict broke out, and several strong people who were no less than the 'Heavenly Absolute Master' snatched this beast skin together, and as a result, the true qi exploded at the same time, and this complete beast skin was torn apart...... Otherwise, why are the edges so uneven?"

Ye Qingxuan finally let out a long breath and said, "The idea makes sense. For thousands of years, there have been many strong people of the 'Broken Void' of the Chinese people, and when the barbarian tribes were unified, the population was also a country of more than 10 million, how could there be no strong people of the 'Broken Void......'?

Wan Guotai said in a deep voice: "Only in this way can we explain why there are so many Chinese powerhouses who go deep into the Nanban to find this thing...... Only the secret of the 'Shattered Void' is worthy of these strong people who are outstanding in the innate world, giving up their lives to find it!"
