Chapter 20
(The second update, ask for collections, ask for recommendations, ask for member clicks!)
With excitement, Meng Xiongfei carefully puffed the book down and put it on the ground with his mouth, and then went to the outside of the cave to bite a branch in the rain and came back, and picked up the pages of the book with his mouth to puff the branch. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The inner pages are the same texture as the outer cover, but slightly thinner, and the writing is the same as the bird and insect seal on the cover, but much smaller. The beginning is a preface, which is not written in any style, neither the common American style of ancient literature, nor too many metaphorical modifiers, let alone the whole text, but very easy-to-understand sentences.
If it weren't written in bird and insect seals, and the book was found on the dry bones of the ancients, Meng Xiongfei really preferred to believe that this was something written by modern people. But he knew that it was not, although it was not a common ancient style, and there was no ancient literary decoration, but he could still feel an indescribable ancient and distant atmosphere brought to him by the text. Moreover, the earliest ancient texts are only from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and the earlier ancient texts of the Yan and Huang dynasties have not been handed down, so no one knows what the style, words, and writing techniques were like at that time.
The preface is not long, and Meng Xiongfei read it quickly. After reading it, he was surprised to find that this book seemed to be really written by Shennong himself, although there was no clear word to reveal it, but from the author's preface to the self-description, it seemed very similar.
He didn't speculate too much, and continued to read, and the following is the text. After reading a few pages, he lamented that this was really just a book of herbs, and all the herbs introduced in the text were all kinds of herbs, what they did, what diseases they could cure, and there were graphic illustrations that intuitively showed the shape of the herbs, etc., anyway, there was no sentence and a half word that pointed to any exercises. He didn't have the patience to read page by page, jumping page by page, and when he was done, he helplessly found that this was still just a medicinal herb scripture.
He let go of the branch he was biting in his mouth, and couldn't help sighing, and at this time he didn't care if this book was written by Emperor Yan Shennong's own hand. Even if this book is really written by Emperor Yan himself, it won't help him now anyway. If it were a human being, he could still be used as an antique collection or sold for money, but he was just a cow at this time, so what was the use of coming?
A set of marksmanship that can only be seen but not practiced, a strange book that I thought was a magic book but turned out to be just a herbal book, Meng Xiongfei thought he was lucky at first, but now he feels that it is still a little worse. After lamenting for a while, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered the secret writing of some martial arts cheats in the novel. With the idea of giving it a try, he choked up the book and threw it outside in the rain. He remembered that some books were written with secret potions, or written without words, or covered up with other contents, and they all needed to be immersed in water to reveal the true scriptures.
Meng Xiongfei stared nervously at the Materia Medica, which was opened under the rain curtain, and the two bull's eyes were wide open, not for a moment. He was surprised to find that the rain did not soak the pages, except for some dust on the pages, and the rain rolled down like beads when it fell. The handwriting on the pages was not at all invisible, as if the words had been engraved and not written in ink.
"Water can't invade!" Meng Xiongfei said secretly in his heart, "I don't know if fire can't invade?"
He wanted to give it a try, but he was afraid of ruining the book, after all, he could still collect it as an antique after becoming a human in the future. And water can't invade, it's already a treasure book. But on second thought, if the water immersion is not good, it may need to be roasted by fire to produce the true scriptures, so I still made up my mind and spat out a mouthful of flames into the book.
After all, he was still afraid that it would really burn out, so he simply put it in the rain to burn it, so that if it caught fire, it could be doused by the rain and not completely destroyed. The flames erupted, and the rain in the vicinity was burned into mist. When the fog cleared, he was surprised to find that the book was undamaged, and there was no sign of burning in half of the corners, but it was brand new and clean, like a new book. But then he was helpless to find that the book had not changed anything except that it had become newer.
Flooding doesn't work, fire doesn't work, he just jumped through the pages and found nothing. On closer inspection, there are no mezzanine in the book. He sighed helplessly, and admitted with some reluctance in his heart that this book should just be a herbal book, a medicinal herb book that may have been written by Shennong himself and could not be invaded by water and fire. But no matter how magical and valuable it is, it is still just a medicinal herb book. For him at the moment, nothing helps.
"Moo!" he cried out unwillingly at the rain curtain, which was swept up by the air that erupted from his mouth. After the call, he knelt at the entrance of the cave, and then stared at the rain curtain and watched the rain scene slowly calm down. I don't clean up the book, just let it rain, anyway, it won't be invaded, and it won't break down again.
Summer showers come and go quickly. After about an hour, the rain stopped. By the time the clouds and rain stopped and he breathed in the fresh air after the rain, Meng Xiongfei's mind had already calmed down. However, although the rain had stopped, the sky was still overcast, but it was not as gloomy as before. The book in front of him was washed cleaner by the rain, he stood up, lowered his head and puffed the book back into the cave, and then stared at the Ma family Fubo marksmanship engraved by Ma Tao on the stone wall.
The Ma family's marksmanship is nameless, because of the name of Ma Yuan, the descendants named Fubo, which is for Fubo marksmanship. He planned to memorize all the marksmanship and practice it in his mind before leaving. He still plans to return to the edge of the mountains and forests, and this set of marksmanship cannot be practiced and cannot be taken away, so he can only memorize it first, and then have the opportunity to practice it again when he changes back to the human world in the future.
He can actually wait here until he becomes a human before practicing, but he doesn't want to wait here until he has to cultivate until he becomes a human being, and he doesn't want to wait here; he can also go back to the edge of the mountains and forests, and then come back here to practice after he becomes a human, but he is afraid that the distance is too far and complicated, and he can't remember the road, and if it takes too long, it will be easy to forget. Therefore, the safest and safest way is to keep it in mind, so that you don't have to wait or forget it.
After reading it again, Meng Xiongfei saw Ma Tao's message again saying that he hoped that the person who found him could bury his bones in the ground, and couldn't help but curse secretly, Dadao is sorry. He was only busy with the book at the moment, but he forgot about it. But he looked at his current appearance, and then looked at Ma Tao's current appearance, but he couldn't help but worry. He is not a human being now, just a cow, how to bury Ma Tao's dry bones.
After frowning and thinking for a while, he finally came up with a solution. Turning and walking outside, he looked around for a cracked rock, then raised his front hooves and slammed it twice, knocking down an irregular slab, about the size of an adult.
After getting the slab down, he pouted back into the cave. Then he stood in front of Ma Tao's bones, and pushed forward with the thin side of the stone slab, against the ground, as if shoveling the ground with a shovel, and shoveled up Ma Tao's bones whole. Fortunately, Ma Tao's bones were half-lying against the cave wall, and there was a cover in front of him, but he was successfully shoveled up at once. After shoveling, he carefully plucked the stone slab with Ma Tao's bones and walked out of the cave.
Just now, when he was looking for a suitable stone slab outside the cave, he also took a look at a burial place for Ma Tao's bones. At this time, after getting out of the hole, I didn't need to look around again, and walked straight over.
It was a low-lying piece of ground, about the same size, and he didn't have to dig a hole anymore. However, at this time, because of the rain, there was some water in the pit. But this did not bother him, he first carefully placed the stone slab aside, and then a burst of flame erupted, and the stagnant water inside evaporated and dried up. Then he lifted the stone slab next to him with his hoof, and Ma Tao's bones were dumped into the pit. After pouring it in, he did not drop his hooves, but lifted it again with force, until the stone slab overturned and covered it.
With just one moment, the grave was almost covered. Then he dug some soil next to it to bury it, which saved a lot of time and effort. His ox's hooves were hard and powerful, and it was not easy to dig up the earth, and even though there were many rocks and no dirt beside it, they quickly crumbled like sand under his iron hooves, and buried the grave incessantly and piled it up.
As he was planing, he suddenly felt a pain in his feet, Meng Xiongfei lowered his head and raised his hooves to take a look, only to see that the fur on the hooves had been cut and bleeding out of something. Looking at the place he had just dug up, he found that the culprit was a sharp stone, and he couldn't help but hate it in his heart, and stepped on it with all his might, trying to crush it to avenge it. I don't want to step on one hoof and it won't break, even if I step on three hooves, it can be seen that this stubborn stone is hard, otherwise it won't be able to cut through the cowhide that has already become tough and abnormal after his body has been transformed after eating the jujube.
The wound was stained with mud, and he found another low-lying place to clean it, and then used his tongue to **** the wound. Saliva is always a good medicine to stop bleeding and disinfect wounds in the absence of drugs, and some components in saliva can also help to speed up wound healing. Many animals are injured with their tongues. Meng Xiongfei learned this trick when he was a human being, and now he is applying what he has learned, and there are no band-aids to buy here.
After licking it, when he looked again, he suddenly noticed that the wound was healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Of course, this is not the miracle effect of his saliva, but it should also be the effect of that jujube. In the blink of an eye, the wound had healed as good as before, and there was not even a scar, only the blood stains on the fur that had indicated that the wound had bled here.
"By the way, blood, why didn't I think of it, I should try blood again! That book is not an ordinary martial arts cheats, this kind of magical thing, can not be measured by ordinary methods!" Looking at the blood on the wound, Meng Xiongfei suddenly thought of the "Materia Medica" again, and thought of the method of testing the treasure by dripping blood written in some novels, and couldn't help but exclaim loudly in his heart.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly ran into the cave to choke the book, and then spun around looking for a sharp stone and wounded himself and bleed. Nervous and excited, he dropped a drop of blood on the page of the Materia Medica.
As soon as the blood dropped, it was immediately absorbed by the pages, and then the whole book suddenly bloomed with a dazzling light. In the light, words and graphics began to bloom in the book. From less to more, these words and graphics flew and continued to drill into Meng Xiongfei's eyes, and thus entered his mind and engraved in his mind.
After about a quarter of an hour, the words and graphics with flowing light flew away, and the light on the book dissipated, and Meng Xiongfei had already had an extra set of exercises called "Senluo Wanxiang Jue" in his mind at this time, which was full of pictures and texts, and was extremely auspicious. And this set of exercises is indeed inherited from the Yan Emperor Shennong's clan, and it is created according to the principle of the five elements. Based on wood, deriving the other four elements is a secret method of divine power with all five elements.
Legend has it that Shennong is the head of a cow, but in fact, he is also a demon who has achieved cultivation, and his real body is also a cow, and this set of exercises he created can be said to be too suitable for Meng Xiongfei. And Meng Xiongfei was able to use blood as a guide to measure the true scriptures hidden in this "Materia Medica", but it was all thanks to the fact that he is now a cow, not a person.
Because the blood needed for this book is ox blood, not human blood.
