The girl looked at Tianxiang in amazement, who was tormented by anger and pain, and her beautiful face showed an expression of surprise and incredulity. Although the huge difference in the behavior of this hunter who appeared to be about his own age before and after is really incomprehensible. However, according to the rules of the hunting world, she must obey all the orders of the food giver. So, after gently dropping the pieces of flesh that had been shoehorned into her hands, the girl began to pick up the pile of clothes she had just taken off from the ground and put them on carefully.

Tianxiang's agitation did not last long. A few minutes later, as the cold night breeze blew from the window, the frenzied brain began to gradually calm down. Looking at the girl who was dressing, Tianxiang didn't speak, just stood there quietly, as if thinking about something silently...

"Smack!" A flat pouch wrapped in black rags slipped gently from one of the clothes the girl had just picked up and fell to the smooth concrete floor with a sound that was not very loud but extremely crisp. attracted the two of them to look at each other at the same time, the girl was nothing, and her expression should be quite ordinary. But Tianxiang's eyes could no longer be removed after just a casual glance.

It was a book, two books stacked on top of each other wrapped in black cloth. A corner of a book sticking out of the side of the cloth bag already clearly identifies.

"What is this?" Tianxiang walked over quickly, picked up the cloth bag on the ground and untied it, and carefully blew the dust on the surface of the page.

"This, this is, this is what I use ... That,Used to... hand paper. Such a question was obviously difficult for the girl to talk about. However, under the pressure of Tianxiang's piercing eyes, she still whispered the true purpose of these things quite nervously.

Since his adventures in the library, Tianxiang has begun to pay attention to all the ancient relics that he can find. Books are naturally one of them. Although he couldn't say why he was so interested in the ancients who had been dead for many years and only had a handful of dry bones left. But in the subconscious deep in the brain, Tianxiang still feels that as long as it is something of the ancients, it will be of great help to him. Therefore, these two books were obviously picked up by the girl from somewhere, and they were used to facilitate the cleaning of hands after that, and they became rare treasures in his eyes.

In fact, these two well-preserved books do contain something that Tianxiang did not expect.

"The Atlas of Taijiquan... Shadowboxing? What is this? Let me think... Tianxiang frowned, carefully searching his mind for all the knowledge about this strange term. This term is very familiar, as if I have seen it in a book before. I just can't remember it for a while. However, one thing he can be sure of is that it should be a skill that can increase his physical strength mentioned in a book by the ancients.

"If you're going to swap, then use this for exchange!" Tianxiang carefully flipped through the book in his hand full of various types of human posture patterns, and threw such a surprising sentence at the girl without raising his head. made her stunned on the spot. Two books, actually exchanged for a delicious barbecue. Not only that, but this eccentric hunter gives himself a bunch of fresh food while rejecting his body. It's not a lot, but if you save a little food, it's enough to last for three or four days. The price of all this turned out to be only two books, two thin books, two books that I picked up at random from the side of the road and used ... It is only a book that can be used as paper after convenience. The huge contrast between the deep-rooted hunting principle in her mind and the almost wasteful "generosity" of the person in front of her made the girl unable to react at all for a while, and could only mechanically echo the rhythm of Tianxiang's speech, and nodded subconsciously.

The girl's reflection Tianxiang didn't pay attention at all, his mind was now completely focused on the two books that he had just obtained. These are two atlases, two atlases full of various human postures and movements. Of course, there are also essential textual instructions. But in Tianxiang's view, the meaning expressed in the words in these two books is so obscure. "Baihui", "three-legged", "acupoint"... He didn't know what these inexplicable words meant. There is no word to be found in the knowledge of the ancients that has been acquired that can explain them.

As for the second half of the book, there is also a thing called "qigong", which makes Tianxiang feel that his brain is almost about to collapse. "Qi", "Dantian", "Zhoutian"... I know all about "oxygen" and "air", "wheat field" and "melon field", and although the concepts of "blue sky" and "daytime" are not very clear, they can also have a somewhat vague concept. But according to the book, these things actually exist in everyone's body. For a moment, Tianxiang only felt as if he was a fool who didn't know anything.

Because, he couldn't understand these two books at all.

If it had been in the past, Tianxiang would have thrown this inexplicable strange book aside without hesitation, and maybe he would have stepped on it again. After all, many people will take such a means of venting for things they don't understand. But now, all Tianxiang did was to carefully put the two books, which obviously belonged to the bottom half of a complete set of atlases, into a pocket on the side of the leg of the combat suit on his body. As for the first half of the book, which was full of pictures, he carefully held it in his hand like a treasure and studied it carefully. After all, the book in your hand, which is almost entirely graphic, is obviously much easier to understand than the other one.

"These two books are definitely useful. They must contain a tremendous power that I could never have imagined. Tianxiang's subconscious repeatedly sent such warnings to the brain. The innate excitement in the worm's brain when a major prey appeared in front of him also made Tianxiang involuntarily feel an inexplicable excitement. But he was still distressed: the book in his hand must be a good thing, and it can't be wrong. The question is, what's so good about them? What is the use of it? Tianxiang himself could not answer these questions.

The girl was gone, and along with her disappeared the small pieces of barbecue. The principle of exchange between hunters is as simple as that, and once they have achieved their goal, almost no one wants to stay for half a point. This may seem unforgiving and unreasonable, but in fact it is one of the most basic conditions for the survival of hunters. After all, people's cravings for food go far beyond emotional needs.

The night breeze continued to pass through the leaky corners of the house and the gaps between the windows, forming small whirlpools of air currents under the impact of each other. The crackling flames also danced happily in the wind. This makes the flickering firelight seem to be the only unique place that can radiate light and warmth under the thick shadows between heaven and earth.

Tianxiang is still reading a book, to be exact, he should be looking at a picture. Look at those weird human movement drawings in books. Since those inexplicable words cannot be understood by themselves, the graphics should be able to understand more or less. It may be because the drawing skills of the person who made this book are so poor that the figure on it looks a little out of shape, and the facial features on the face are even more indescribable. There were a few pictures of the funny expressions of the characters, which caused Tianxiang to burst into laughter. It's just that, suddenly, an impulse surged through his mind, an inexplicable impulse.

"I'm going to try these moves and see what I can do. Yes, that's it, exactly the same as in the book. ”

Reach out, raise your legs, clench your fists... All the graphics on the pages have been memorized. The unsightly Tianxiang is now trying to do the same in the form of the person in the book. Of course, he did not know the evolution of the two movements between the figures, and could only mechanically compare them rigidly according to the fixed shapes in each picture. Reaching out is reaching out, and lifting the leg is exactly the same, even if there is only a slight change in the later graphics, poor Tianxiang can only re-pose the same action that has changed the angle, and he does not notice at all: in fact, his hand only needs to bend a little bit in the current direction to achieve the same effect effortlessly.

Lessons need to be learned. This statement is obviously true. After an interesting comparison of the dry movements for a long time, Tianxiang, who was sweating profusely, suddenly found the problem in the comparison of the two graphics with little difference. In this way, a coherent but not very smooth set of Tai Chi reappeared in an almost obscurantist hunter.

The unexpected discovery made Tianxiang suddenly interested, and after repeating it two or three times, the originally slightly jerky movements had become quite smooth. The computational brain will often give a perfect combination of body movement routes in the difference between the movements of the two figures. And these routes are precisely the most standard normative movements in Taijiquan.

If the mysterious power of the human brain often appears at the most unexpected times, then the current situation should definitely belong to one of them. Of course, greater accidents and surprises also slowly appeared on him with Tianxiang's familiarity with the whole set of boxing techniques.

"Why, how can this be?" Tianxiang, who had just finished a complete set of punches and put on a closing posture, suddenly felt that the "eye" in his brain had far exceeded the original exploration boundary. It had gone farther, faster, and had almost reached the opposite side of the broken street outside the house. Explore almost twice as far as before. What's even more exaggerated is that Tianxiang, which is separated by several walls and more than 100 meters away, can clearly see from the "eyes" that under a thick stone slab on the opposite side of the street, there is a juvenile aphid that is no more than the size of a palm.

There is no doubt that it is the strange boxing techniques recorded in the book that caused this result. Although Tianxiang didn't understand what was going on, he knew very well that the boxing technique he had just practiced would undoubtedly expand his brain's thinking and perception ability. In fact, from the time he finished the first set of punches just now, Tianxiang had already found that his body was not only not as tired as he usually was, but also a lot more refreshed. At the time, he thought it was just the result of slow punching speed and his curiosity. Now it seems that it is probably entirely due to this mysterious ancient boxing method.

"Try again, see if you can move farther again." Tianxiang, who was excited, suddenly reached the ground, slowly closed his eyes and began to meditate. The scope of exploration in my mind gradually spreads. Of course, the distance only extends by a few meters. It seems that this should be the limit of my current perception.

However, Tianxiang soon discovered another strange but quite useful ability on his body.

You can actually order and command the bugs? No, not commanding, it should be controlling, completely controlling.

It was still the juvenile aphid, and when he retracted his thoughts, Tianxiang jokingly passed some of his perception fluctuations through the aphid's body, completely unexpectedly feeling another kind of thinking energy.

The mind of the bug, the mind of the juvenile aphid. Tianxiang could feel that the aphid was surprised, and it was asking about the fluctuations in his thoughts, asking where this strange energy was coming from.

"Oh my God! How is this possible? Tianxiang, who was sitting on the ground, was so frightened that he suddenly opened his eyes and fell to the ground all of a sudden. He muttered to himself, "Impossible, this impossible... ”

Human beings can actually communicate with insects, although it is through the form of pure consciousness, but this kind of thing still makes Tianxiang feel quite shocked, so that he has not been able to come back to his senses for a long time.

"Try again and see if that's true!" After meditating for a long time, Tianxiang gently closed his eyes again and released his thinking energy. It's just that, compared to the previous time, this time there is obviously a bit of excitement and excitement in the thinking perception.

"That's right, it's indeed a fluctuation of the worm's consciousness energy." Tianxiang carefully touched the aphid's thoughts, slowly surrounding the young aphid with his own thoughts. Obviously, the aphid was so surprised by this inexplicable fluctuation of consciousness that it had to put on a fierce defensive posture after repeated intents to no avail.

The greatest threat comes from the enemy, and the enemy lurking in the shadows is the most formidable of them all.

"They don't have thoughts, they just instinct. The instinct to survive. After carefully teasing the aphid, Tianxiang suddenly discovered that in the aphid's brain waves, the energy that he had mistaken for thought fluctuations was actually just the instinct of the insect. They rely on this awareness to judge the attitude of an unfamiliar species, whether friendly, peaceful, or hostile. That's all.

"Maybe I can control this little bug." Suddenly, such a strange thought popped into Tianxiang's mind. It was so strange that even he thought it was a little strange. Can bugs be controlled? Will they do what they do? I am afraid that this kind of thing is a delusion in the eyes of any normal person, an inconceivable delusion.

However, Tianxiang is different from ordinary people. Even he was stunned by all the strange things that happened to him. In particular, the knowledge gained in the library made him feel that anything, as long as you do it, can happen. Isn't it like what the ancients said: "There are only unexpected thoughts, and nothing that cannot be done." Even those who have been dead for hundreds of years have such a bold consciousness, so why can't I try it?

In this way, Tianxiang mixed a strong sense of command with the thinking energy surrounding the aphid. He asked the aphids to come and crawl in front of him, from the street a hundred meters away, all the way to the house where he was.

Although, there was a burning fire in this room that any bug would have avoided at the sight of it.

The aphid was confused, and it could be seen that it was hesitating and searching. It couldn't figure out where the sound of it crawling across the street into the room across the street was coming from. Truth be told, it was reluctant to do so, and the insect's natural perception told it that the room was so tight that it would probably never be able to get out of it if it got in. But there was no way, the voice in my head was like a heavy hammer beating my fragile nerves. If it is an adult aphid, it will definitely refuse the temptation of this voice without hesitation. But this is a larva, a larva that has just hatched from the egg not long ago. Compared to the adults, not only the body, but also the nerves are not fully developed at all. In this way, in the midst of rejection and helplessness, the young aphid could only tremble and shake its six small limbs, and slowly walked towards the dilapidated hut opposite, which looked rather terrifying, but sounded infinitely tempting.
