Chapter 82: From luxury to frugality
As this secret liaison, Tao Xiaowu didn't know whether this matter was good or bad, but he knew that this pool of water was very deep, very deep, and so deep that it could drown people.
Especially him Tao Xiaowu!
Maybe he Tao Xiaowu has some skills now, but he is not good at such a big thing, and he doesn't even know how to die.
However, Tao Xiaowu hid his anxiety deep in his heart, took out the golden seal, and said, "This is a return gift from the prince!"
That Wu Zhu Lingping showed joy, eagerly took the gold seal, glanced at it, and hurriedly took out a lacquer box and put the gold seal away.
Only then did he say to Tao Xiaowu: "There is labor sacrifice wine!"
But he didn't say that he was grateful, but directly took out a silk silk from his side and said, "A little heart, some of the witchcraft recorded in my country."
If you're interested in sacrificial wine, you can take it and see it!"
Tao Xiaowu's heart moved, Tao Xiaowu is no stranger to the style of this silk book, and the silk book that Tao Xiaowu read last time recorded the sacrificial technique is also like this.
That sacrificial technique was indeed powerful, and it almost had the effect of reversing fate.
It's a pity, the price paid is staggering enough!
Last time, Tao Xiaowu just used the sacrificial technique to solve the trouble of the ghost uncle in Hengting, and sacrificed millions, nearly 10 million materials.
But I don't know what is written on this silk book?
Tao Xiaowu didn't check it on the spot, took the silk book, and said solemnly: "Thank you, Dawu!"
"You and I will have a lot of opportunities to deal with each other in the future, so why be so polite?
The next time I have a chance, I will definitely invite the sacrificial wine to visit the capital!"
said, paused, and said with a smile: "By the way, I almost forgot, in addition to this silk book, there is also this bead for you!"
"Streamer Bead?!" Tao Xiaowu blurted out.
"So you recognize this pearl, so you don't need me to say anything more!"
Tao Xiaowu really wants to say, you should tell me, what is the origin of this bead?
However, that Wu Zhu Lingping was about to return in a hurry, and only ordered a ghost soldier to escort Tao Xiaowu back to the yang world.
Tao Xiaowu also knew that this Wu Zhu Lingping was probably in a hurry to send the golden seal back.
This matter is extremely important!
Tao Xiaowu was not verbose, and immediately returned to the Yang World under the escort of a ghost soldier.
Almost as soon as Tao Xiaowu walked out of the quiet room, Yang Fuhou, who was pacing at the door, had already asked, "How!"
Tao Xiaowu nodded slightly and said, "Do not disgrace your mission!"
Yang Fuhou suddenly showed a happy and relieved smile, and said, "It's hard to sacrifice wine, go back and rest for the time being." Set up a feast on another day and reward the sacrificial wine!"
Tao Xiaowu didn't dare to say anything, and Shi Li retreated.
Mixed into such a confidential matter, but I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse?
......
After doing this, Tao Xiaowu was more cautious.
Whoever it is, not a word about it.
even went so far as to simply shut up and concentrate on cultivating. Although Nayang Fuhou has not specifically explained, Tao Xiaowu knows the importance of this matter and must not leak secrets!
Therefore, Tao Xiaowu expressed his secret with practical actions.
From this day on, Tao Xiaowu hid in the courtyard to practice, and it became easier and easier not to take a step.
And Nayang Fuhou was obviously very satisfied with Tao Xiaowu's actions, but his treatment of Tao Xiaowu was doubled.
Even, this Yang Fuhou bought ten tilts of land in Hengyin County and directly gave him the title deed.
These lands are near Wuli, although they are not included in the Ueda.
But it's not far from Wuli.
It also includes more than 100 field slaves and servants in that land.
In such an era, perhaps land resources are not so important. After all, there are fewer people, more places!
However, human resources, especially slaves, are quite valuable!
After all, in such an era, one husband and five people rule a hundred acres, which is the most ideal model.
In other words, an adult man, with his wife and children, and a family of five, cultivates 100 acres of land, can get food and clothing, and even be well-off.
How could such a thing be possible in the Ming and Qing dynasties in later generations......
At that time, it was not bad for a yeoman farmer to have two or three acres of land.
With dozens or hundreds of acres of land, he is already a small landlord!
Of course, the model is only an ideal state, but it is enough to see that in this era, there are few people in the land.
Although there is a lot of land, there are few human resources!
This can also be regarded as a tacit reward, and a reward for Tao Xiaowu.
In addition, Tao Xiaowu's income has doubled, and the number of people waiting for him has increased a lot.
I don't know how many carriages, swords and other things specially prepared for Tao Xiaowu!
Of course, knowing that Tao Xiaowu was interested in shark beads, he gave five shark beads.
Even if Tao Xiaowu didn't care much about other things, he was extremely happy to get these five shark beads.
Last time, the three shark beads were not held back a little, and as soon as their hands slipped, they were all used up!
After trying the power of the shark pearl, he cultivated with ordinary pearls, but it was a little unbearable for Tao Xiaowu.
After all, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift!
After trying the powerful effect of the shark pearl, it is simply difficult to accept it and then cultivate with ordinary pearls.
It's like driving a good car and suddenly giving you the feeling of a broken tractor!
Tao Xiaowu originally had the idea of avoiding suspicion, and after getting five shark beads, he naturally hid in his yard even more and did not go out, taking the essence of the sun and the moon every morning and evening.
At the four o'clock, the qi of the four directions is collected, the four spirit talisman is cultivated, and the four spirit talisman is sacrificed.
There are several other artifacts as well!
The days are very full and busy.
And his strength is in this busyness, and unconsciously, it is constantly getting stronger!
Even Tao Xiaowu took the time to study the silk book given to him by Wu Zhu Lingping.
The silk book looks very similar to the silk book that records sacrifices, but it contains other witchcraft.
The ancient Xi Kingdom is inherited from the ancient god of fire, witchcraft is prevalent in the country, and the royal families of all dynasties are wizards.
The witchcraft recorded in Wu Zhu Lingping's book to Tao Xiao Wu is naturally very exquisite, far from being as rough and incomplete as Wu Cheng taught.
More importantly, it records the meaning and pronunciation of some ancient gods.
Of course, the text can't record the pronunciation, after all, this is not a pinyin script.
However, looking at the records in this silk book, Tao Xiaowu knew that the ancient gods actually needed specific witchcraft rituals before they could be taught by ghosts and gods.
However, when Tao Xiaowu prepared the witchcraft ceremony, he was stunned to find that some of the materials needed for the witchcraft ceremony had actually become extinct.
What's worse is that the gods recorded in witchcraft have long since disappeared.
Tao Xiaowu has never even heard of these gods, let alone any temples and legends that are sacrificed......
It seems that after the fall of the ancient Xi Kingdom, those gods also disappeared!
