Chapter Seventy-Three: The Yanshi's Secret Text
The Thunder Dragon Beast was killed, and the biggest crisis in Qingyang City was lifted. Although Ximen Gong and Ling Feng, the two powerhouses of the Transformation Realm, left quickly, the remaining beast tides had already lost their fighting spirit after all the previous battles. At this moment, when Qingyang City turned its bows and crossbows towards them again, all the beasts immediately retreated into the distance. For these remnants of the defeated generals, Zhou Yuntian and the others also wisely chose not to order the pursuit. First, because Qingyang City is also seriously injured, what is needed at this time is rest and recovery. And killing wild beasts excessively will also break the ecological balance of this Qingyang Mountain Range, bringing unforeseen consequences.
Therefore, looking at the rolling beast tide leaving, Qingyang City is also busy: treating the wounded and repairing the city wall...... Soon after the war, Hua Lao said goodbye to everyone and returned to the Zhou Mansion. And Xue Yi also took Zhou Shang to the Zhou Mansion after obtaining Zhou Yuntian's consent. Although Zhou Yuntian said that Zhou Shang was guilty of meritorious service, Zhou Shang's injuries were not healed, and the war was over. At this time, Zhou Yuntian was busy with the political affairs of Qingyang City, and the matter was over.
Before leaving, Xue Yi also took the time to hand over the few elixirs he had made in the underground world to Zhou Yuntian. Zhou Yuntian was extremely shocked by these rare elixirs, but he didn't ask too much, and agreed to Xue Yi's request to help him deal with it. This made Xue Yi a lot easier. After all, he was a fledgling and had no channel to sell these elixirs. If Zhou Yuntian hadn't promised himself, he would really have a headache about this matter.
Bidding farewell to Qingyang City, Xue Yi rode with Zhou Shang and returned to Zhou Town. Although Qingyang City is much more prosperous than Zhou Town, it is not a good place to cultivate. If you want to improve your cultivation, you should still try to choose a quiet place.
"Whew-" Xue Yi opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity. After meditating cross-legged all night, not only did I not feel soreness, but I was refreshed. Got up and opened the curtains, the sky outside was already bright, and faintly, you could also hear the shouting on the street outside the gate of the Zhou Mansion.
Xue Yi stretched out and pushed the door out. Taking a deep breath of the early morning air, Xue Yi couldn't help but smile a little.
It feels so good to be home.
In the past six months, most of my time has been spent in the wilderness. Although his strength has improved rapidly because of the daily battles with various enemies, he has never been able to sleep peacefully in that kind of place, and he has to be on high mental vigilance all the time. Now that I have returned to Zhou's Mansion and rested for three days in a row, I suddenly have a feeling that my whole person has been emptied, which is extremely comfortable.
Master also said that cultivation requires tension and relaxation, and it is not advisable to practice by tightening the bowstring all the time. The light case will cause the foundation to be unstable, and the heavy case may even go crazy. And Xue Yi's return this time is precisely to relax his body and let himself precipitate what he has gained for half a year.
Zhou Shang's injury was almost healed, so he was called back to Qingyang City by Zhou Yuntian yesterday to help take care of affairs, which can be regarded as a hone of his management skills. For Zhou Shang's ability in this regard, he is definitely ashamed of himself. Zhou Shang has been trained by Zhou Yuntian in this regard since he was a child, and the reason for this is that he wants to train him to be his successor. After all, what the head of the family needs to have is not only strong strength, but also extraordinary management ability. And Zhou Shang also lived up to expectations, and he was only a little more than ten years old and was able to handle the affairs that made Xue Yi dizzy in an orderly manner.
Without Zhou Shang to accompany him, Xue Yi returned to the house after punching in the courtyard. Although he still lives in the same courtyard as Zhou Shang now, he is no longer in the hut where the subordinates live, but has moved next door to Zhou Shang. He has now officially joined the Zhou family, and in terms of status, he is equal to the sons of many people, of course, he will not live in that kind of place anymore.
Sitting back on the bed, Xue Yi glanced at Xiaobi at the head of the bed again, and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. This guy is still the same, but the fluctuations in the combat power around him seem to have become slightly stronger. Nearly half a month has passed since she entered the underground world, but Xiaobi still shows no signs of waking up. Regarding this situation, Xue Yi also consulted Zhou Yuntian, or after some inspection, he judged that Xiaobi was in the process of advancing. After all, Xiaobi can only be regarded as a first-order demonic beast at present, and the advancement from the first order to the second order does not make Zhou Yuntian pay much attention to this.
Knowing that Xiaobi was advancing, Xue Yi's heart was also relieved. It's time to advance, how many heavenly treasures this little guy has eaten, and it is intolerable if he doesn't evolve to the second order. And since it's in the middle of the advancement, the longer the time, the longer it is.
Putting Xiaobi's affairs aside, Xue Yi was about to cultivate for a while, but his fingers inadvertently touched a hard object under the pillow.
By the way, he's been busy these days, and he hasn't had the heart to study this.
Xue Yi stretched out his hand, and a black book was suddenly turned into his hand. On its cover, the words "Yanshi Secret Dictionary" are exuding a shining light.
In fact, Xue Yi has always been very skeptical about the reliability of this book, and it is for these four words that he came. Because the content here is all in the Yanshi language, he can't understand any of them, but why are these four characters in human language?
However, Xue Yi did think too much about this, which he would know much later. Because the four words on this cover were not actually written by the Yanshi clan, but by the old man himself. It is said that it looks more domineering, and it is convenient for you to look for it in a pile of clutter......
Holding this book that was not too thick again, Xue Yi's heart calmed down a lot. The old man said that he had a blood connection with the Yanshi clan? If there is, it will be in the future, what impact will it have on his current self? And as long as he doesn't say it, who knows that he may be a "half-blood"? Thinking about it this way, he doesn't bother with this identity issue, anyway, everyone thinks that he is a human being.
Holding the book in his left hand, Xue Yi put his right hand on the paper, and once again reproduced the action of awakening the Yanshi Secret Codex. The surface of the book is as rough as ever, and it has the feeling of being timed. Start with a piece of ice, like a piece of crystal. After a few breaths, golden words resurfaced on the paper.
This time there was plenty of time, and Xue Yi held the black book in his hand and carefully studied these strange words. said that it was a text, but in fact it was just Xue Yi's speculation. In fact, these things are so different from words. If you look closely, you can find that every inch square of text is composed of dozens of thick and thin stripes horizontally and vertically. These lines seem to be out of order, but after careful study, there is a sense of mystery and profundity, as if following some special law. However, if you dig deeper, you will find nothing, and you will not be able to see the connection between these mysterious patterns and their meaning.
Xue Yi studied it over and over for a long time, but still couldn't see a reason, and finally looked away from the dazzling lines in disappointment.
"Am I really an impostor?" Xue Yi threw the book aside depressedly, thinking sadly. Although deep down he didn't want to have anything to do with this mysterious Yanshi clan, it didn't feel good to be an impostor.
After a period of frenzy, Xue Yi grabbed the Yanshi Secret Book again in frustration, staring boredly at the dense but strange-shaped words on it, his heart moved, and for the first time, he no longer was entangled in those strange lines, but observed these runes with an appreciative eye as a whole.
Because he suddenly thought of the words of the old man in the underground world - to understand with your own heart.
How do you understand the Dharma individually?
Xue Yi held his chin and carefully recalled the old man's words. But this sentence is too general. Comprehend with your heart?
Xue Yi looked at the simple black book again, looked at the incomparably mysterious runes, and imprinted these words in his mind purely with memory.
A miracle happened.
When these runes were engraved in his heart like an imprint, a strange feeling spread in his heart. Those words that were originally static suddenly jumped, revealing the years and vicissitudes one by one. It seems to be a friend who has been absent for many years whispering in his ear, and it is as if an old man who has experienced the world is telling his life.
For some reason, Xue Yi suddenly felt the urge to cry. These words are actually emotional!
"The beginning of creation, the beginning of Hongmeng. The nine ethnic groups are prosperous, and the four seas are equal. The wise man is wise, and the wise man becomes a teacher. The spirit of Zhong Tiandi is beautiful, and the beauty of all generations. The sun feeds its shape, and the month lives its life. Gather six qi to fill its universe, and accept hundreds of ingenuity to build its work. Although there is no tiger and leopard cultivation, fortunately with the pure heart of the unicorn. Spread its veins and rest its spirits. Study the different learning of the eight directions to rejuvenate the Tao, and win the miracles of the Three Realms and be immortal.
......
Set three generations of high school, pick up the legacy of 100 years old. Finally this volume, Hui Bailanze. I hope that future generations will cherish this ambition, pick and polish, promote the thousand-year-old foundation of our clan, and ensure that this vein will never fade. ”
A sentence was like the sound of the Great Dao Tianyin, and it was like Hong Zhong Da Lu, resounding in Xue Yi's mind, and a feeling of dizziness suddenly made Xue Yi dizzy.
"Uh......" Xue Yi's body shook and hurriedly held on to the edge of the bed before he sat down.
"This ...... What is this?" Xue Yi was shocked and hurriedly looked at the Yanshi Secret Book in his hand. But at this time, because his palm had left the black book, the Yanshi Secret Book dimmed again.
"Just now...... It can't be my auditory hallucination, right?" Xue Yi looked at the black book in his hand, thoughtful. But the voices still exist clearly in his mind, as if they are still echoing in his ears.
"I can actually understand what they mean!" Xue Yi reacted at this time, and was so shocked that he almost jumped out of bed.
That's right, those words are still the words of the Yanshi clan, and I still feel dazzled. But for some reason, I can clearly understand the meaning of these words.
"I'm really from the Yanshi clan?!" Xue Yi's heart swelled with monstrous waves. I didn't expect that I really confirmed the words of the old man who was sealed under the altar of the underground world, and after comprehending these strange words with my heart, I really understood these words without knowing what was going on.
"But these words are really a bit awkward......" Xue Yi rubbed his temples and smiled bitterly.
After reading these words back and forth two or three times, Xue Yi barely understood this passage. On the whole, the beginning of this passage seems to be the beginning and history of the Yanshi clan, and then the characteristics of the Yanshi clan are talked about, praising the great achievements and contributions made by the Yanshi clan from generation to generation, and finally it seems to warn the descendants of the Yanshi clan not to live up to the expectations of their predecessors, and let the Yanshi clan carry forward through this book.
"Promote the thousand-year-old foundation of our clan and ensure that everything will not fade. Xue Yi recited these two sentences repeatedly, and couldn't help but sigh. The so-called thousand-year-old foundation, which has endured for eternity, has now become a ruin. Listening to what the old man said, the Yanshi clan had been extinct many years ago, and the whole clan was left with this Yanshi secret book and the Nine Heavens Luo Star Disk.
Picking up the Yanshi Secret Book again, Xue Yi's mood was much heavier. If you can understand these words, then you have an inseparable relationship with this Yanshi clan no matter what. Perhaps it was affected by the emotions that flowed from those words, and my heart was heavy. Perhaps, now he is the only Yanshi clan member in the entire world. The race is gone, and the person holding this book in his hand is the only person in the world who can prove that the Yanshi clan once existed. This responsibility is not insignificant.
Taking a long breath, Xue Yi tried to calm his mood. If it comes, it will be safe. This book can be accidentally in his hands, maybe it is really destiny. In this case, how can I live up to the trust of God?
