Chapter 10: Jade Jue
Wu Cheng's words, he believed most of them.
Anyway, he'd already seen mountain ghosts.
Knowing this world, there should really be ghosts and gods!
It's a pity that Tao Xiaowu can't understand these divine texts either.
It's the same whether you look at it horizontally or vertically.
It seems like it's just a meaningless ghost drawing!
Tao Xiaowu sighed in disappointment, but put away the animal skin and continued to sleep.
However, the brain could not rest, and it was still involuntarily pondering these divine texts.
I don't know how long it took, but gradually tiredness hit, and finally I couldn't help but fall asleep.
In the dream, it was still mottled with colors, and all kinds of divine characters flew around in my mind, as if I was alive.
Eventually, it all dissipated, and my mind seemed to go from excitement to tiredness, and completely entered a deep dream.
Tao Xiaowu dreamed again.
I came to this room again, and I still couldn't see it.
The room was full of all kinds of Danjing Taoist books, but he couldn't even open a single one.
Even the one that fell on the ground, he couldn't turn the page!
"Looks like it's been for nothing tonight again!"
Tao Xiaowu thought in his heart, and suddenly, the corner of his eye seemed to catch a glimpse of something.
"Huh!" Tao Xiaowu walked over.
This room was originally not big, and Tao Xiaowu was already very familiar with the things inside.
It can be seen that the master here should have been a Taoist priest during his lifetime.
In the room, there are peach wood swords, copper coin swords, robes, order flags, chao jian and other magic weapons.
However, it was not these that attracted Tao Xiaowu's attention.
It's a jade!
"Hey, how is this jade jue exactly the same as the one in Master Wu Cheng's hand? It can't be such a coincidence, right? Could it be that I saw it wrong?"
In a brocade box in the bookcase, there is a jade jue of mutton fat and white jade, but it is the same as the jade jue in Wu Cheng's hand, even the pattern carving is no different!
......
Since ancient times, jade jue has many meanings, and it is worn on the right thumb when archery to be used as a hook string.
But more of it is worn on the body, with its meaning for everything to decide, do not hesitate at the opportunity, for the husband's temperament.
There is also a jade jue worn on the body, and when walking, it is steady and square, and it is not possible to walk quickly, so as not to make a noise when the jade jue hits, which means that it is a gentleman's.
However, now Tao Xiaowu knows that this jade jue represents a token!
With this jade jue and that divine text, Tao Xiaowu has mastered Wu Cheng's greatest ability, that is, the imperial beast and the command of ghosts and gods.
Although he has not yet passed on the jade jue to Tao Xiaowu, Wu Cheng has already taught Tao Xiaowu the divine text he has mastered!
And the divine text recorded on this animal skin is actually an oath, or a contract!
This is the contract signed by the ancient wizards of Wucheng's lineage and the ghosts, gods, and demons of hundreds of thousands of miles around Hengting Mountain.
In the future, as long as the wizard of this lineage holds the jade jue, recites the secret names of these ghosts and gods, or demons, and then offers enough sacrifices, he can summon ghosts, gods and demons to help with things!
However, some of these contracts have been signed for one or two thousand years, and even the most recent ones have been signed more than three hundred years ago.
Time has changed, with several catastrophes, as well as the establishment of the Han Dynasty, and the redefinition of Shinto, many ghosts, gods and demons themselves have fallen.
Therefore, some of these contracts are still useful. Most of the others are completely useless!
However, it is only a part of the contract that is still valid, which is enough for Wu Cheng to establish a great reputation and be known as the first wizard of Hengyin.
"It's all money, and if you have a reputation, you have money. Only with the ability can you have a place to live!"
Thinking of this, Tao Xiaowu subconsciously sat cross-legged and gently read out an ancient divine text, and the ancient and awkward pronunciation was slowly read out of Tao Xiaowu's mouth.
At the same time, Tao Xiaowu carefully recalled these inscriptions, then closed his eyes and contemplated, and sketched out these inscriptions one by one in the sea of knowledge!
As these runes were completely outlined, a faint mist seemed to emerge from them, almost permeating Tao Xiaowu's sea of knowledge.
It seemed that at this moment, Tao Xiaowu's consciousness had been stretched extremely far away.
It was deep, dark, and there was a diffuse fog everywhere.
It was as if in the depths of a cavern, a massive, body the size of a water tank.
However, half of its body was decomposed, and in some places the giant python with white bones had been exposed, and it was lying in a deep sleep.
And with Tao Xiaowu's consciousness descending, this sleeping python seemed to sense something, and seemed to be about to open its eyes!
A huge fear hit his heart, making Tao Xiaowu vaguely know that if he was not prepared and did not pay tribute, it would be extremely dangerous to summon these ghosts and gods for no reason......
Consciousness was almost immediately disconnected, Tao Xiaowu suddenly snorted, opened his eyes, and blood was already flowing from his nostrils.
In the next room, the whole person shrunk into a ball, and Wu Cheng, who was coughing constantly, felt something, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of surprise: "Qiyou...... I mastered it so quickly...... cough cough cough cough ......"
His body shrank even more because of the cough, and his entire lungs were wheezing violently like a bellows.
......
I coughed so badly last night that it seemed like I could lose my breath at any moment.
But the next day, Wu Cheng woke up as if nothing had happened.
"Tao Xiaowu, you have also inherited a lot of my skills, and you can go out and perform witchcraft for others!"
Early in the morning, Wu Chengcheng coughed and said to Tao Xiaowu.
"Yes, Master!" Although Tao Xiaowu didn't sleep much all night, he was in good spirits.
"Very good, Xu Shi has provoked a drowning ghost near the water, and has come to me for help. You go and help solve it!" Wu Chengdao.
"Yes, Master!"
"Drowning ghosts is not difficult to deal with, you need to use a drop of your own blood, plus the blood of the red snake, and the gills of the carp, the grass of the sun. Worshipping the ghost of the water is enough to solve it!" Wu Cheng instructed.
Tao Xiaowu listened and said, "Thank you Master for your teachings!"
On the animal skin inscription, there is a method to summon the ghost of the water, and there is also the ancient pronunciation of the name of the ghost of the water.
These are the secrets that are not passed on, and they are also the most powerful source of power in the Wuli lineage.
However, this Wu Cheng still hid a hand.
That is how to worship these ghosts and gods is not mentioned!
For example, to worship this Hugh, you need something like rooster blood and red leaf grass.
And the things needed to worship other ghosts and gods are different!
It's about keeping a hand.
The so-called church disciples starved to death of the master.
Even before Tao Xiaowu crossed over, there were still some martial artists, doctors, or other characters who inherited traditional skills.
They will hide their best skills and will not really teach them to their disciples until they are dying.
