Chapter Twenty-Six: Cultivation Notes
There was only one person left in the Yangmei courtyard, and after a long time, Tao Yunjin still looked confused, and Ah Yi was worried that the people around him would see the difference, so he decided to go back to the school palace. Besides, it's almost evening, and there is no place to sleep if you don't go back.
He thought about talking to Aunt Yao, so he went to Aunt Zhang's room next door. But Aunt Zhang said that Yao Gu had gone back early.
When I got out of Aunt Zhang's house, I glanced at it and found that Yao Gu was standing in the alley diagonally opposite, and there was a man in front of her, only half of his face was exposed.
Lu Yi waved his hand and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw Yao Gu's hand and the man's hand clasped tightly, so he closed his mouth.
He is eighteen years old, even if he is stupid, and knows what happens between men and women. Looking at the blush on Yaogu's face and the smile on the corner of her mouth, she understood seven or eight points in her heart.
This is not a strange thing, especially at the age of Yao Gu.
He turned around and went back to the Yangmei courtyard, but he didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, the godfather had already returned, lying on the recliner squinting and humming a small tune, with a big bear lying at his feet, and he had been dead for a long time.
He said that he was going back to the school palace, and the godfather seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a smile: "What's the hurry, if you don't leave before going to bed, I will drive you away." ”
Lu Yi was covered in cold sweat: "Godgrandpa, do you have such a guest?"
Grandpa smiled and said, "Are you a guest?"
After that, he pointed to the bear corpse on the ground: "Peel off this skin, it must be peeled completely, and there must be no flaws, otherwise it will not be sold for a good price." Then chop the meat and drink it in the evening, and you eat it before leaving. ”
Lu Yi nodded, and immediately worked quickly, deliberately leaving a whole hind leg meat for Xiao Yuan. Although he prefers to eat live meat, if he doesn't catch a prey all day, it's better to fill his stomach.
When the food was fragrant, everyone returned. A small square table was set up under the bayberry tree, each of the four of them occupied one side, Xiao Yuan crouched on the chaise longue, and San'er sat beside him.
At the dinner table, the chips are staggered, and the cups are changed, so it is not lively.
After eating, Lu Yi was ready to say goodbye, and San'er also said that he would return to Songling, and soon after, his litter of children would be born.
Xiao Yuan had to follow Lu Yi to the school palace, but his grandfather wouldn't let him.
Xiao Yuan bared his fangs and said viciously: "Why am I staying in the city? You don't let me eat people, I'm starving to death!"
Grandpa Godfather pulled out his whip and pointed at him: "Dare to eat one and try it!"
The eagle owl smiled on the side and said cool words: "He is a Yuan Demon, and people are the best blood food." ”
Yao Gu hurriedly played a round game: "Xiao Yuan, didn't you catch a lot of wild ducks and hares to eat? Don't you often go out of the city to hunt for food?
Lu Yi hurriedly said: "There are many animals in the back mountain of the Xue Palace, and it will be easier for Xiao Yuan to find prey there." Don't worry, with me, I won't ask him to eat people. ”
Only then was the godfather willing to let go, so one person and one wolf returned to the school palace.
It was calm all the way up the mountain, and the people in the school palace didn't pay much attention to the big wolf, anyway, there were demons everywhere in this Song City.
When he returned to the hut, it was already nightfall, Lu Yi moved the futon on the bed inside, and smiled at Xiao Yuan: "Let's squeeze in today, and I'll make another bed tomorrow." ”
After speaking, he was not confident and whispered to Tao Yunjin: "Do you think this is okay? Although he is a male wolf, after all, I am also a man, so it is a little unreasonable to let him sleep on the ground! ”
Tao Yunjin drooped his head, sat on the ground, and said, "Whatever." ”
But Xiao Yuan did not go to bed, but walked around outside the hut, and finally lay down against the door panel, his head resting on his front paws, and closing his eyes.
Lu Yi leaned over and asked softly, "You really don't want to enter the house?"
The big wolf didn't react. Lu Yi had no choice but to close the door gently and go to bed to meditate.
Seeing that Tao Yunjin was still so cowardly, Ah Yi sat down next to her and looked at her thoughtfully for a long time.
Tao Yunjin finally noticed Ah Yi's gaze, turned his head to glance at him, and said weakly: "What are you looking at?"
Ah Yi smiled: "I think you seem to have changed a little." ”
Tao Yunjin didn't bother to ask why, just waited quietly for Ah Yi to continue.
Ah Yi said: "You have become different from before. Although you lived in Lu Yi's body before, you have always been yourself, and you think that you have nothing to do with Lu Yi's body. Now you care so much about whether this body is a human or a snake. ”
Tao Yunjin said lazily: "Because I never thought of being a snake." ”
Ah Yi shook his head: "If it was before, you would think that Lu Yi was being a snake, and you were still Tao Yunjin." ”
Tao Yunjin slowly turned his head and looked at him: "What do you want to say?"
Ah Yi smiled: "You have connected yourself to this body. You have also connected yourself to the world. ”
Tao Yunjin was stunned for a moment, and then was silent for a long time.
Ah Yi smiled and rubbed her head: "Why don't you talk again?" You used to quarrel with me all the time, but if you don't speak, I'm really a little uncomfortable." ”
Tao Yunjin glanced at him: "Cheap." ”
Ah Yi lay on the ground, put his hands under his head, and said with a smile: "Well, it's a little bit interesting." Like before, I used to be whipped by my grandfather, but when I entered the school palace, I didn't get whipped, and I felt itchy again. I went back today and was beaten, and I felt quite comfortable. ”
Tao Yunjin said "ha": "You are called a lover." The taste of home in your subconscious is probably the taste of fried meat with your grandfather's whip. ”
Ah Yi looked at her: "You finally smiled." Okay, okay, don't be bitter. ”
Tao Yunjin smiled, ignored him, and took out the wooden box given by his godfather from his arms. "Why did this strange old man give me this thing again, and what secret is hidden in it?"
The thing still glows warmly in the night, with fine lines as dense as spider's silk inside.
She looked at it, her brow furrowed.
In the past, it was about poor eyesight, and there was no abnormality, but now after the Shenque Flood Furnace is ignited, all the functions of the whole body have been greatly improved, and even the eyesight has also improved a lot.
She closed her eyes, mobilized all the aura around her body to pour into her eyes, and opened them suddenly, and the inner circle of her pupils lit up her eyes with layers of aura.
This time, I saw it clearly, and the spider silk was really dense, and it was densely packed, with words and runes, as well as pictures and graphics.
Tao Yunjin vigorously stabbed Ah Yi beside him: "Hurry up and look, there is something written here!"
Ah Yi sat up with a grunt, and the two heads squeezed together to look at the chalcedony, and read the words on it word by word:
"I've been thinking about it for the past few days, why can I only change into the kind of demon to which my true body belongs? Why can't I change into other demons? This realm of the surface realm is not only able to restore the strong body possessed by the real body demon clan, but also should cultivate the body surface, making the body surface as tough as iron. Perhaps, I can try, don't rush to fill the spiritual energy in the Shenque Flood Furnace, but try the armor of several other demon clans. ”
After reading a paragraph, Tao Yunjin and Ah Yi looked at each other, what is written here? It looks like a person's experience in cultivation and something like that.
Tao Yunjin asked curiously: "If you are really a snake, can you only transform into the scale armor of a snake? can't you change into a pangolin?"
Ah Yi nodded: "No." ”
Tao Yunjin pointed to the chalcedony: "The person who wrote this note seems to think that it is okay." ”
Ah Yi scratched his head: "Yes." ”
Tao Yunjin said: "Theoretically, this is indeed feasible. Didn't you say that your father also had demon blood? For example, his parents used to be pangolins, so you also have a little bit of pangolin blood, and it stands to reason that you can change like that. It's a matter of probability, the probability of having a snake in your bloodline is high, and the probability of a pangolin is small, but it's not entirely impossible. ”
Ah Yi thought for a moment and put forward a key point: "But it's useless! I have snake scales that can make my skin hard and invulnerable, so what does it matter if I can conjure up the scale armor of a pangolin? Mages don't just rely on strong armor to protect themselves, and when they encounter an opponent with high mana, no matter how hard the scale armor is, it is useless." You see how painful my godfather beat the back of my hand...... Oh, it's healed. But if I am in a high realm and have strong mana, and I encounter an ordinary opponent, even if I don't have a scale or armor on my body, the opponent will not be able to hurt me in the slightest. ”
Tao Yunjin disdains this argument: "It's too utilitarian for you to think so. If you think the way you do, technology will never develop, and civilization will never progress. It is very convenient to use kerosene lamps and candles, so why bother to invent electricity? It is much easier to use ox-drawn carriages than people, so why bother to invent steam locomotives?"
Ah Yi's eyes were glazed, as if he was trying to comprehend some of Tao Yunjin's new words, but he still couldn't keep up with the other party's train of thought.
Tao Yunjin continued: "Many inventions are created in the laboratory by accident. The creators didn't originally intend to do that, but in the end they got an extra surprise. So, I thought we could give it a try. ”
Ah Yi nodded in agreement.
Since they are two groups of consciousness, they can naturally come and go freely in their bodies, and they can be big or small, and they can go anywhere. The two of them shrunk their bodies and entered the Divine Que Flood Furnace, shuttling back and forth, connecting with all parts of their bodies in the spiritual energy river.
Because the body is in a state of meditation and pranayama at this time, the spiritual flow is like a mountain and a flat lake, and the wind and waves are calm.
The two of them wandered in it for a long time, starting from Shenque, going to all parts of the body, except for the eyes and teeth that could not cover the skin, everything else walked again, and returned to Shenque.
Tao Yunjin stretched out his hand to fish in the river of spiritual energy, grabbed a little glittering spiritual energy, and shrunk his body again into the palm-sized mass of spiritual energy.
She seemed to be in a kaleidoscope, surrounded by colorful and strangely shaped prisms.
There are many faces on the prism, reflecting luster and vaguely carving runes.
She grabbed one of the octagonal prisms and took a closer look, and the runes on it were densely packed, like miniature carving.
And if the shape of the prism is the same, the runes are more or less the same. If the shape is different, the content and order of the runes are different.
When she saw a few of the runes, she felt a little familiar, and remembered that she had seen them in the notes in the chalcedony, so she hurriedly jumped out and picked up the chalcedony and looked at it again, and this time it was really the same part.
Seeing that she was holding the chalcedony stupidly and not speaking, Ah Yi asked anxiously, "What do you see?"
Tao Yunjin said: "What is recorded in this note is the method of using runes. By learning this method, we will be able to change the runes contained in the aura on the surface of the skin, and we will also be able to change the external form of the skin. ”
Ah Yi was eager to try: "Then what are you waiting for." ”
