Chapter 36: The Awakening Ritual (Part I)

As soon as he entered the door, Fang Xiaobei noticed the difference.

The space was so large that it was beyond his imagination.

More than a dozen rows of bookshelves are lined up all the way to the depths, the bookshelves are full of materials, and the bookshelves on both sides are clustered into a walkway, and at the end of the walkway is a large table large enough to accommodate more than ten people to eat together.

Fang Xiaobei was very interested and looked around, but he didn't touch it with his hands, he just followed Lao Ning to look.

Walking to the table, he found that it was full of various containers and different types of cups, and after a little search for memory fragments, he realized that these were test tubes, graduated cylinders, droppers, and beakers.

He thought it was deep enough to reach the edge of the table, but he didn't expect that the other side of the table was also full of bookshelves, but instead of books, there were various items on it. The walkway formed by the bookshelves stretches all the way, and it is not far before it is shrouded in darkness with no end in sight.

Fang Xiaobei only then discovered that there was no electric lighting system here, and the lighting used candles and kerosene lamps.

Even the table that was large enough to seat more than a dozen people to eat was not made of iron, but wooden.

Lao Ning didn't know where to take out a box and put it on the table, under the soft light of the kerosene lamp, Lao Ning looked like a wizard in the previous life.

Lao Ning cleared the things on the wooden round table from it and put them on the ground. Fang Xiaobei realized that the ground had begun to be shrouded in an ankle-high mist at some point.

Before she could react, Lao Ning didn't know where to take out a large black iron pot and put it in the center of the wooden round table, which was supported by strange branches under the black iron pot.

"In fact, the awakening ritual is very simple, there is no need to chant a spell, and there is no need for a special flame, just need to place the sacrifice according to the steps, and then light the fire. It's as simple as a child's house. ”

Lao Ning said with a smile, the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together because of the smile.

"Really?"

Between the words, Fang Xiaobei heard Lao Ning's pride.

"It's that simple, you have to thank the Empress." Lao Ning made a gesture of praise to the empress indiscriminately and uncoordinatedly.

It's a memorial offering again, and this world sacrificial offering is so important?

Thinking so, Lao Ning opened the box, which contained a mass of meat pieces, as well as test tubes, balances, and beakers.

"I need a liter of pure water, and I just happened to have it the other day." Lao Ning looked for it on the shelf on the side and came out with a large round bottle.

He pinched the slender opening of the large round bottle, opened the piston, and poured the pure water inside into the large black iron pot very casually.

"In fact, the amount of pure water does not have to be so precise, a little more, a little less, it doesn't matter. You say yes. ”

Fang Xiaobei didn't dare to answer, and smiled awkwardly.

"Then there's 500 grams of tripe from Charolais."

Lao Ning took out a piece of meat from the box, weighed it on the scale, and cut some with a knife to control the precision of the weight.

"This is no ordinary Charolais beef, it is beef that grew up eating memorial products, and the beef itself is an excellent memorial product." Lao Ning said, putting the weighed beef into a large black iron pot filled with pure water.

"Nine grams of dragon fish powder."

Dragonfish that grew up eating sacrificial offerings......

Fang Xiaobei added in his heart.

Lao Ning took out a test tube from the box, did not weigh it with a balance, and poured it into the iron pot casually by feeling.

Seeing Fang Xiaobei's heart pounding, he was a little skeptical about whether Lao Ning was reliable for a while.

"The last material, the 'mysterious' blood." Lao Ning took out a tube of blood, which looked like it was nothing like human blood.
