56 Crack the Spirit Book
Su Chen carried herbal basket and left Yaowang Villa and went to another county to perform the mail delivery task.
Leaving the prosperous Gusu County, you will reach the deep mountains and ridges seventy or eighty miles away, and it will be a barren land with few people. Even hunters who make a living by hunting rarely set foot in this kind of place where tigers and wolves often appear.
On the way, Su Chen drilled into the deep mountains and forests, and found a rock to sit on the ground in the empty and quiet dense forest.
Then he took out the heavy book of jade slips hidden close to his body from his arms.
This jade book is made of eighteen exquisite jade pieces and is threaded with exquisite golden thread, just like a bamboo slip, but there is no text engraved on it.
A month ago, he visited Hanshan Taoist Temple at night and failed to find the stolen goods colluded with Daozhu Qinghe and the water bandit Ding Shisan. Instead, he found such a mysterious book of jade slips in the dark cabinet in the secret room, which was an unexpected gain.
But seeing the Hanshan Taoist Temple invites the county government to search all over the city and mobilizes five major disciples to set up control and encircle and suppress the entire Wu County, these are enough to prove that this lost treasure book is extremely important to the Taoist priests. Perhaps it is more valuable than the ten heavy boxes of gold, silver and jewelry in the secret room.
"Is this the legendary wordless heavenly book that hides the secret of cultivation in Hanshan Zhenren Grandmaster Realm?"
Su Chen looked at the jade book and thought curiously.
Among the many miscellaneous books in the library, there are some legendary stories of heroes in the world, and they once mentioned that there are the heavenly books without words in the world. This heavenly books without words often contain peerless secrets in the master realm. After cracking, they can become a peerless master and proud of the world.
Of course, these are just legendary stories and should not be true.
It is actually not difficult to leave handwriting invisible to the naked eye in the book. Using some special small techniques, you can hide the contents in the book.
Su Chen once saw a secret letter from a senior pharmacist who wrote words on white paper with rice soup. After drying, there was no trace, and the words were not visible at all.
When it is delivered to the recipient to see it, it must be applied with a mysterious potion, and blue or red and purple text can appear.
In this way, if someone peeks at the letter, the recipient will notice that the letter has been peeked at by someone when he sees the blue handwriting.
This is just the most common trick to pass confidential letters in the world to prevent the sender from peeking at the contents of the letter.
Su Chen has seen such a secret letter without words several times, and has long been used to it.
Most of the so-called mysterious and wordless heavenly books in the world actually have words, but they just use different secret methods to hide the words inside.
"This Jade Slip Book is probably like the pharmacists, using secret methods to hide the mystery. Just find a way to make it appear."
Su Chen was so excited that he thought about this.
It was also a rare pleasure for him to crack the secret of this book of jade slips.
This jade is not paper, so of course it will not be smeared with rice soup on it.
Su Chen thought for a while, projected the jade slip against the strong sunlight to see if there were any small words carved inside, but with his strong eyesight, he could not tell anything inside.
Su Chen soaked it in clear spring water again, but it still couldn't.
If water doesn’t work, then burn it with fire to see if it can be roasted!
Anyway, this place is an empty wilderness and mountain, and it is made of jade. It is born to be afraid of fire and cannot be damaged.
Su Chen boldly burned the fire, first with a small ball of flame, slowly roasting the jade slips without any response. Then he raised the bonfire and burned them fiercely. The eighteen jade slips were burned red by the fire, but they were still the same.
Su Chen couldn't figure it out, so he had no choice but to give up the method of burning.
Su Chen thought of all kinds of strange ways, but they couldn't work. There was no handwriting on the Jade Slip Book.
"It's strange. Are these eighteen pieces of white jade just simple jade? They are not treasure books in the Grandmaster realm?"
"But this is unreasonable!"
"The secret room of the Qinghe Roadmaster in Hanshan Daoguan, there is such a treasure hidden in the secret cabinet, which is more tightly hidden than the gold, silver and jewelry of other ten heavy boxes.
If it is not effective, why should Master Qinghe store it so carefully? Why did the Taoist temple make such a big noise? Please call the government yamen runners to lock down the city, or even the entire Wujun gang to chase me?"
"If this is not a treasure book in the master's realm, and only more than ten beautiful jades, this jade itself is not very valuable. It is not worth the effort to mobilize many people!"
Su Chen held the book of the jade slip in his hand, but he couldn't get in. He spent several hours studying the jade slip, but he couldn't figure out what secret method the jade slip used to keep it secret.
Su Chen thought hard for a long time and bit his lip for the last time.
I don’t know if there will be any special reaction when soaking this jade slip with green water.
His bluestone is quite magical. After grinding it into powder and dissolved into blue water, it can use the medicinal power that will allow the herbs to grow rapidly and grow for a year overnight.
However, there were only fifteen bluestone left in his hand, one less, so he didn't want to use it unless he had to.
But now I have tried all kinds of methods, but it is still useless.
Su Chen gritted his teeth and decided to try bluestone.
If you don’t try it, who knows if it works? Although this bluestone is quite rare, if you don’t use it, it will be like some waste stone particles, which is not as good as cracking the secrets in the book of Jade Slips.
He took out a bluestone from his little cloth pocket, chose a concave piece of the rock, smashed it with a stone and ground it into powder, poured it like some clear water, and dissolved it into a slum of green and turbid water.
Then, put the book of jade slips inside and soak it.
Su Chen just stood aside, staring at the change with wide eyes.
But there seemed to be no change for the moment.
Su Chen stared at him for a few hours, his eyes were a little sore.
Until dark, the sky gradually faded.
Finally, this book of jade slips had been soaked in the green and turbid puddle for a long time, and even the green color of the green and turbid water disappeared. The jade slip seemed to have absorbed something, and it actually showed a clear handwriting, densely packed on the jade slip.
These handwritings are more subtle than mosquitoes and flies.
Su Chen had a very strong vision, but he could tell it.
On the eighteen jade slips, each of them shows a series of texts as thin as mosquitoes and flies, and some even have patterns on them.
"Haha, there are indeed handwriting on this jade slip book. Qingzhushui is so magical!"
Su Chen was surprised.
He just risked the price of a bluestone and tried it, but he didn't expect that this method would work.
He didn't know why his bluestone could crack the book of jade slips. Perhaps it was because bluestone had something to do with this book of jade slips.
But as long as you can break the secrets of the Jade Slip Book, it's fine, no matter how many it is.
Su Chen hurriedly looked at the handwriting on it carefully.
The first jade slip shows the handwriting of "Xiaoyaoyou*官网" and a short text introduction, saying that this spiritual book contains an extremely mysterious magical method of cultivating immortals during the Qi Refining Period, as well as some commonly used spiritual techniques and methods of making spiritual talismans.
The second jade slip records the detailed content of the extremely mysterious Qi Refining Stage Cultivation Art of "The Eternal Cantonese".
The remaining sixteen jade slips, eight of which each recorded a spiritual art, and the other eight recorded a spiritual talisman, recording a total of eight spiritual arts and eight spiritual talismans.
"The Qi Refining Period's Immortal Cultivation Arts, Spiritual Techniques, and Spiritual Talismanship Methods?...Is this the Immortal's Book of Immortal Cultivation?"
Su Chen was shocked and couldn't believe it after reading the introduction on these jade slips.
This jade slip dares to claim that it records the method of cultivating immortals, which is definitely a rare peerless treasure in the world.
If this jade slip book was found in the Yaowang Gang's library, or in a book shop in the county, Su Chen would probably think that this was a random book compiled by a Taoist priest in the countryside.
But this was stolen from the secret room of Hanshan Taoist Temple. It was a treasure of the Taoist Temple. Su Chen could not help but think about it.
"No wonder Hanshan Taoist Temple attaches so much importance to it. It turns out to be a book of cultivating immortals."
"This kind of immortal book is definitely not something that Master Qinghe has obtained. It must be the immortal book that Hanshan Zhenren went out to travel around. I don't know where it was found, but what kind of immortal cultivation method is this "Xiaoyaoyou"!"
"If you lose such a treasure, Director Qinghe will definitely be in trouble! However, who told him to collude with the water bandit Ding Shisan to harm the people? Humph, although he could not collect the stolen goods of his bandits. However, if he lost this book, it was even more painful than chopping him with a knife, he would definitely be punished by Hanshan Zhenren."
"If this is really a book of cultivating immortals, wouldn't this mean that there are really immortals in this world besides peerless martial arts masters?"
Su Chen was surprised and his face turned red with excitement.
Since he entered the world, he is still a first-class small person in the Medicine King Gang's Jade Hall. Although he is already a second-rate expert, there are only a few more small characters in the entire Wujun world.
Never thought that one day I would get a magical book on immortal cultivation in my hand.
Su Chen also heard stories about folk legends of immortals in Gusu County, but he always thought it was a legend and did not take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, these legends may really exist...but they are very far away from the world.
I'm afraid that only the masters of the Wujun world like Hanshan Zhenren have the opportunity to come into contact with one or two and get such a scroll of magic to cultivate immortals.
Su Chen's face was flushed with excitement, as if he was a treasure, and quickly swept through the handwriting and talismans on the eighteen jade slips.
He saw the talisman on one of the jade slips and was suddenly stunned.
A pattern of a flame!
Very familiar!
Su Chen instantly remembered that when he first broke into Director Qinghe's room, he had found an unfinished mysterious flame talisman on his desk.
He held the ancient talisman in his hand, and his perception was exploring, and almost burned his hand.
But later Su Chen went there for the second time, but there was no trace of the talisman, and he didn't know where the talisman was.
He couldn't help but feel moved.
"Is it possible that the mysterious talisman was made according to the magic talisman production method recorded in the cultivation technique? ... In this way, Master Hanshan and his five personal disciples, Old Dao Qinghe, should have also cracked the mystery of this jade slip book and tried to make the magic talisman!?"
Chapter completed!
