Chapter 47: The Heavenly Pearl
The two lower floors of the bookshelf were all books on wine skills, Xiao Yunxiu was not enough, so he didn't look at it much, and his eyes were fixed on the remaining books on the first floor.
These books are all anecdotes about the world of wine.
Xiao Yun held the oil lamp and looked down one by one.
Obviously, from these titles, you can imagine what is recorded in the book.
"Oh?" At this moment, Xiao Yun's gaze suddenly stopped.
He suddenly saw that in the next two books, there was a thin gap, and there seemed to be something in between.
Xiao Yun's curiosity was aroused, and he raised his hand to open the book on the left, and immediately saw that there was a book between the two books.
In fact, this book can no longer be called a book, because it is extremely thin, only a few pages, and the paper is deeply yellowed under the light of the oil lamp, as if it has not been turned in many years.
"What kind of book could this be?" Xiao Yun frowned and pulled out the papers.
Looking closely, I saw that on the first page of the book, which was only four or five pages thick, there were three words that had been flowered in black font, and there was one word below, but perhaps because of the age, it was no longer clear, and after careful identification, it could be vaguely recognized, and the remaining word should be a "secret" word.
"Witch Worm Top Secret?" Reading it together, Xiao Yun couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Witch bugs?
Xiao Yun immediately thought of the corpse of the Wu clan that he saw in the secret passage, it was clearly a huge and strange insect, could it be that this witch insect was referring to the Wu clan?
After dealing with the drunken corpse twice, Xiao Yun has long been very curious about the Wu Clan, especially the crystal-like bead in the Qiankun pot, which made Xiao Yun want to find out, what is it?
In addition, this book seems to be very ancient, which makes Xiao Yun's curiosity even more intense, so he walked to the long desk and sat down cross-legged, put the oil lamp on the desk, and gently turned the first page.
"The Witch Bug Clan, also known as the Witch Clan, does not know where it originated, and is a mortal enemy of the Terrans"
The first page begins.
"The witch worm really refers to the witch clan. Xiao Yun became interested, and then looked down.
In just a few pages, in addition to the knowledge of the witch clan that Xiao Yun already knew, this "Witch Worm Top Secret" also had a lot of things that Xiao Yun had never heard of.
It turns out that in the world of wine, there was no Wu clan before, and I don't know when the Wu clan suddenly appeared as if it fell from the sky, and killed the human race, it can be said that since ancient times, the Wu clan and the human race have been incompatible.
And it is mentioned in the book that when the Wu Clan first appeared, it was just a terrifying shape, using brute force to deal with the Terrans, and they were very afraid of the Terrans' drinking power, so they began to study the Terran drinking path, but they never had any way to drink alcohol, but they turned to be obsessed with drunkenness, and slowly developed into a worship of drunkenness.
In the first three pages, the appearance of the Wu clan and the development of attack methods are briefly introduced, but on the whole, there are many unanswered questions.
For example, the origin of the Wu Clan, why is there no way to do anything about the drinking power of the human race, but they are so obsessed with drunkenness?
"I don't know when this book was written, the author has a lot of research on the Wu clan, but unfortunately it's not thorough enough. Xiao Yun said secretly, and then opened the last page.
This time, Xiao Yun just looked at it for a moment, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
"Tianyun Pearl, soul power?" Xiao Yun frowned.
If Xiao Yun still knew a little about the content of the first few pages, then he had never heard of the last page at all.
In this last page, there is a kind of power that Xiao Yun has never heard of before in the book—soul power!
For thousands of years, the Wu clan has studied intoxication very thoroughly, and through intoxication, they have created a strange power, which is soul power.
It is mentioned in the book that the Terrans also possess soul powers, but they have never studied this power and know very little about it. In this regard, the author also explained that soul power and drunkenness are closely related, and it can also be said that the stronger the resistance to drunkenness, the stronger one's soul power talent.
In this way, Xiao Yun somewhat understood.
Because drunkenness can erode people's minds, so those who can withstand the erosion of drunkenness will have greater potential for their own soul power.
However, Xiao Yun then smiled bitterly and said secretly: "Although I can withstand the erosion of intoxication, it is all the effect of the beads in my abdomen, but I don't know what level my soul power talent will be?"
Then, Xiao Yun's attention immediately fell on the Tianyun Pearl.
According to the book, after the Wu clan created the power of soul power, they slowly created an extremely strange thing - the Tianyun Pearl.
I don't know what material the Tianyun Bead is made of, but it has a strange effect of controlling the human race's mind. After cultivating the soul power of the Wu clan, they can attach their soul power to the Tianyun Pearl, and through the Tianyun Bead, they can absorb the wine with weak soul power talent of the human race, and control it.
After all, soul power is a kind of sanity power, although the Wu clan can use soul power to attack the sanity of the human race, but only through the Tianyun Bead can further control the sanity of the human race.
However, even in the Wu Clan, it is not easy to cultivate a strong soul power, and the Tianyun Bead is a fundamental treasure related to the Wu Clan, and only the witch worm with a very high status in the Wu Clan can have a Tianyun Pearl.
"Could it be that the bead is the Tianyun Pearl?" Xiao Yun immediately thought.
He reached out and took off the lid of the Qiankun pot at his waist, and the crystal-like bead immediately appeared in his hand, and by the oil lamp, the crystal bead reflected a colorful light, which looked extremely bright.
It's just a pity that in this last page, only the function of the Tianyun Bead is mentioned, but there is no description of the shape of the Tianyun Bead.
But even so, Xiao Yun had already guessed that the bead in his hand was the Tianyun Pearl.
Thinking back to when he was in Junzhu Mountain, there was only one corpse of the Wu clan encountered in the secret passage, and this one Wu clan actually destroyed the entire Zizhu Sect, hundreds of disciples all became drunk corpses, and even the sect master was not spared, so it can be seen that the Wu clan is obviously not an ordinary Wu clan.
At this time, I remembered that those disciples should not have been killed and refined into drunken corpses, but their sanity was controlled.
"At that time, those points of light in the beads, could they be things related to the minds of those disciples?" Xiao Yun immediately thought of this again, and at that time, the drunkenness in the beads in his abdomen poured uncontrollably into the crystal beads, and then all the points of light immediately dissipated without a trace, and secretly guessed.
Of course, Xiao Yun didn't know that after those points of light dissipated, all the disciples in the Zizhu Sect were completely dead, because only a trace of sanity that existed in the bead was completely destroyed.
After a long time, Xiao Yun's expression suddenly looked very pity: "I don't know how Tianyun Zhu manipulates, and there is no mention of these in the book." ”
Thinking of this, Xiao Yun suddenly thought of the black-robed middle-aged man, and thought, "He seems to have a lot of research on intoxication, but I don't know if he will also have an experience with Tianyunzhu?"
Tianyun Zhu is related to soul power, and soul power is stimulated by drunkenness, Xiao Yun majored in drunkenness, and at this time, he couldn't help but want to go to Yin Changyou immediately to ask for clarification.
But now this is obviously not possible.
Xiao Yun walked to the bookshelf, slowly stuffed the "Wu Clan's Top Secret" back to its original position, and said secretly in his heart: "When you go to Tianluo Academy in a month, you must try to ask for clarification." ”
At that moment, Xiao Yun put the matter down for the time being, picked up the book called "The Basics of Wine Road" next to him, returned to the long case, and began to continue reading.
Xiao Yun knew that he still had to stay in this wine world for a long time, and since he met the drunken corpse, he realized that his understanding of the wine world was really poor, and being familiar with the knowledge of these wine world would not only be of great help to him, but might also save his life.
Before I knew it, more than half an hour had passed.
Xiao Yun finally put down the book in his hand, and at this time he had already read the book "The Basics of Wine Manner" for a short time, then stood up, put the book on the shelf, and walked back to the bed.
Today is just the first day of cultivating with He Shangshu, and there is still a lot of time to read, so there is no need to rush for a while, but now it is time to start cultivating the Wine Wave Technique.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, taking off the Qiankun pot, and drinking a few large sips of Daigo wine, Xiao Yun closed his eyes, immediately dispersed the power of the wine into the meridians, and began to cultivate
In this kind of reading and cultivation, soon, more than half a month passed.
By now, Xiao Yun had already memorized the three volumes of "Medicinal Herb Treasures", and had read all the various wine road knowledge in the first layer of the bookshelf two or three times, and had a new understanding of the entire wine world.
And these books of He Shangshu not only involve the knowledge of wine, but also the situation in the Dachang Dynasty, and even the origin of various families in the capital, which also gives Xiao Yun a deep understanding of the various forces in the entire capital.
During this period, Xiao Yun paid special attention to the Huo family and the Tang family.
The current head of the Huo family is Huo Jie's father, and now he is the secretary of the criminal department of the dynasty, but the Huo family is not a top family in the entire capital, at most it is an upper-class junior, because the Huo family is only relatively broad, and its own heritage is not deep, that is to say, the wine of the elders of the Huo family is not very outstanding in the capital.
And those top families don't attach much importance to the position in the court at all, and for them, they don't need to use the level of their position to show their identity.
For example, the top family in the capital - the Wang family, this is the case, there is no one in the entire Wang family who serves in the court, but it is recognized as the first family in the capital and even the entire Dachang Dynasty, and even the current emperor has great respect for the Wang family.
As for the Tang family, Xiao Yun didn't figure out which Tang family Tang Hao and Tang Tongtong were, because there are two Tang families in the capital, and both of them are upper-middle families in the capital.
However, the book specifically mentions the Tang family whose head is Tang Dingtian, saying that the emperor is quite favored by this Tang family, and many people in the Tang family hold military positions in the court, which can't help but make Xiao Yun think that Tang Hao said that he was a general in the court, could it be that the Tang family where Tang Hao is located is this Tang family?
Xiao Yun didn't delve into this problem, because sooner or later he would have to meet Tang Hao and Tang Tongtong, and he would naturally know when the time came.
In addition to these, Xiao Yun also paid special attention to a place that was more important to him.
That's Lord Mengqi.
But to Xiao Yun's great disappointment, none of He Shangshu's books talked about the county lord, so it can be said that there was no mention of it.
In this regard, Xiao Yun can also understand that in the eyes of everyone like He Shangshu, being named the county lord by the emperor is obviously not worth mentioning, and it will not have much impact on the situation in the capital and the power of various families, so he is too lazy to record it.
Xiao Yun had no choice but to give up.
While familiarizing himself with these books, Xiao Yun's cultivation of the Wine Wave Technique never stopped for a day.
Now, Xiao Yun faintly felt that the alcohol in his body was getting stronger and stronger, and there was a strange feeling of occasional spasms in his abdomen, which made Xiao Yun realize that he was probably about to break through.
