Chapter Forty-Six: General Chishui
Gu Sheng sorted out his things, and those valuables, including silver tickets, ingots, herbs, ores, and flying swords, were all stuffed into the Qiankun bag.
This time, the three bottles of pills plus the ones left by Xu Daoren now have a total of five bottles, but unfortunately I don't know what they are for, and Gu Sheng doesn't dare to eat them.
Except for the three thunder guide talismans and five Shenxing talismans, the rune paper left by Xu Daoren was all talisman seals borrowed from the gods, and Gu Sheng didn't dare to use them, so they were thrown into the bag together.
In the end, there are two extraordinary-looking incense sticks and a pile of bottles and cans, all of which are still empty after being put in, so you can carry all your belongings with you, otherwise you will always worry about thieves when there is no one at home.
After finishing his work, Gu Sheng sat there and analyzed today's battle.
Seeing the Flower of Calamity, it can be said that she has made a great contribution, otherwise she would not have known how to provoke the enemy, let alone be attacked.
was unexpectedly attacked by a master of the out-of-body realm Dao technique, and there was no chance at all.
The second is that the painting soul obtained today is really useful, this spell is not strong in battle, and it needs to be prepared in advance, but it can play a miraculous effect. This is still just under control, there is only one thought, only some simple things can be drawn, and it can play a greater role in the future, Gu Sheng can think of many kinds in his mind.
The only trouble is that it costs a bit of material, and it needs to contain a gas machine.
In case of emergency, you can also use other methods, such as Gu Sheng used his own blood to paint just now, but Gu Sheng's strength is too low, and the blood contains too little qi, so the duration is extremely short, and it can only construct extremely simple content.
With this technique, it will be much easier to face the enemies that are chasing you.
Gu Sheng took stock of the battle just now, and thought of Shubao Trading House again, and didn't know if this person was coming over only he knew or if someone else knew.
It stands to reason that his goal is to take a reed, and he shouldn't tell anyone else, but he can't be unguarded.
Gu Sheng thought about it in his heart, and then went out to see how Yan Ruyu was digging the pit.
I saw Yan Ruyu kick the corpse into the pit, and then kicked the head into it, filling in the soil, and the rest of the soil was evenly sprinkled behind the house and stepped on it.
As long as it rains twice, there is no trace of it.
Yan Ruyu finished packing all of this before he smiled and said, "Son, the slave family will help you loosen your clothes." ”
After a while, Yan Ruyu took off her coat and got into the quilt, put one hand around Gu Sheng's waist, and arched into Gu Sheng's arms.
The elasticity and heat of the body are transmitted through the thin clothing, and the aroma of the tip of the nose is somewhat refreshing. There is also a warm fragrance and warm jade in the arms, which makes people's hearts feel like cat scratches.
Gu Sheng's heart was a little nervous, but when he swept over the windowsill, he could see a palm-sized figure floating there, and he suddenly felt that it was too exciting, so forget it.
"Childe-" Yan Ruyu bit lightly on Gu Sheng's arm, exhaled Rulan, and showed a wicked smile.
The sound is like a cat's meow.
"Sleep." Gu Sheng slapped her on the head.
"Hee-hee!" Yan Ruyu snickered, arched into Gu Sheng's arms again, and her breathing stabilized after a moment.
"This girl can fall asleep with a pillow......"
……
Early the next morning, when Gu Sheng got up to practice knives, he saw a few small holes on the ground in the yard, and he dug them open casually and saw a few pieces of wood inserted in the ground.
Gu Sheng guessed that it should have been used by the person last night to insulate the sound, no wonder he didn't alarm the next door when he hit so hard.
After breakfast, Gu Sheng went to the store to read a book, while Yan Ruyu cleaned up the blood stains in the room, and later found someone to repair the house, buy a few tables, chairs and beds and put them in the room first.
If you want to create a set that is similar to the original, it will take at least a month or two of work.
Gu Sheng took a roll of bamboo slips and looked at them, and after a while, he closed them and threw them into the Qiankun bag.
He knew most of the words on it, but he didn't know much when they were combined.
There are still generations of commentaries on the Four Books and Five Classics, and this bamboo slip is more obscure than the content of the Four Books and Five Classics, and many words he has never seen. It's only 2,000 words, but I don't know how long it will take to figure it out.
I picked up another roll of bamboo slips and looked at it for a while, and then threw it into the Qiankun bag.
However, Gu Sheng is not without gains, although the content of these two bamboo slips is different, many of the words are very similar, and they should be books from the same period.
Or even two volumes of the same book.
One of the volumes is supposed to describe a place called the Mt. Que, while the other is about sacrifices.
"Seti, do you know Tianwu?" Gu Sheng raised his head and asked, this is the name of the god enshrined in the second volume of bamboo slips.
"I don't know." Setti sat on the potted plant without even opening her eyes.
Answering as expected, Gu Sheng decided to have free time in the future to gnaw on these two difficult and difficult bamboo slips, and what he needed most now was to improve his strength.
Gu Sheng picked up another scroll of silk books, he read half of this volume yesterday, it was about a giant country near the sea in the west, where people are generally two to three zhang high, that is, about six meters seven to ten meters.
The people of the Giant Nation live mainly on fishing and small farming, a fairly primitive form of society.
This volume is all about these, although it is interesting, but Gu Sheng didn't see any valuable records for himself, so he put it down after reading half of it yesterday.
In the morning, people came and went in the bookstore, and from time to time someone bought books, Gu Sheng missed Yan Ruyu very much, and hurriedly finished the little things at home.
It took more than two hours, and it was noon, and Gu Sheng finished reading the final content.
"Smack."
The familiar voice made Gu Sheng have a bad premonition in his heart.
glanced at the table, and sure enough, he saw a silver ingot of ten taels.
Gu Sheng was speechless and threw the silk book aside, he had been lonely for the past two hours, and his feelings were that he had read a novel.
In the past, silk was so expensive, you could write so many thousands of words in one volume, and as a result, you used it to write novels?
Although this is not the first time. More than once before, when Gu Sheng was reading books, he saw descriptions of martial arts masters, or gods and ghosts, just like the painting idiots he saw yesterday.
In the end, however, it turned out to be just a novel.
However, it is the first time I have seen a novel written in silk.
Fortunately, Yan Ruyu finally came over after finishing her family affairs, and she was able to read with peace of mind in the afternoon.
Gu Sheng picked up the last volume of silk books, but this volume was about a god called General Chishui.
As soon as he saw about the gods, Gu Sheng became interested.
……
The content tells that a scholar surnamed Yuan was in a hurry, and when he passed by Chishui, he met a friend. When I was staying overnight, my friend said, "I'm not human."
The scholar was suddenly shocked and asked, are you a ghost? Do you want to hurt me?
The other party said: No, I am General Chishui, and I want to ask you to help me do something.
My temple was dilapidated and dilapidated and I wanted to renovate it.
The scholar was willing to help with this, but his family was not wealthy, and he was powerless.
General Chishui said, you go to the Huang family in the county and tell him that if he wants to get better, he will rebuild my temple.
The scholar went, and when he arrived at the Huang family in the county, the head of the family was really sick, and when the scholar saw the head of the family, he said: "If you want to get better, then rebuild the Chishui General Temple, and the illness will naturally be cured." ”
The head of the Huang family immediately agreed and found someone to renovate the Chishui General Temple, and the illness was cured.
A few days later, the head of the Huang family gathered his disciples and said, "My illness was caused by General Chishui before, so I repaired the temple for him, and the disease will be cured by itself."
Temples were built so that He could bless the world and answer prayers, and now that He has harmed me, I cannot but get rid of them.
Then he took the disciples to smash the statue and the temple was knocked down, during which a red snake came out from behind the statue and was beheaded by the head of the Huang family.
After another year, the head of the Huang family had another son, and after he was born, he opened his eyes and smiled at him: "Do you still know me?" ”
……
"I don't know if this Chishui general harmed the people of the Huang family, or if the people of the Huang family will take revenge!" Gu Sheng shook his head slightly when he saw it. "This story has a bit of a causal cycle."
Maybe it was General Chishui who killed the head of the Huang family, and then threatened him to build the temple.
It is also possible that the head of the Huang family became suspicious of the gods after he recovered from his illness, and then pushed the other party's temple.
The whole silk book is recorded from the perspective of an observer, and the whole picture is not known, so it is impossible to judge this matter.
No one even knows whether the contents of the book are true or not.
After Gu Sheng finished reading the last few words, a red snake more than a foot long smashed on the table, and the snake's head fell far away, and it bounced a few times.
Blood splattered from the fracture.
"This story turned out to be true!"
Gu Sheng threw the silk book, jumped up quickly and poured out the water in the teacup, then leaned over to catch the snake's blood, and shouted repeatedly: "Ruyu, bring the container quickly!" ”
That's a good thing!
At the very least, it's a snake demon who has become a spirit.
Snake blood can be used as a dye, and snake skin, snake gall bladder, and snake meat are also very useful.
