Chapter 118
After breakfast in the morning, Zhang Luochen sent Yang Baichu to the palace to inquire about the news.
But I took stock of the gains from this time in the study.
Although the victory of the Southern Zhou Kingdom in this battle was barely over and it was far from over, it was impossible to know how the next war would develop. In addition, if the king died, it can be said that he still suffered a great loss.
However, for Zhang Luochen, he gained a lot in this war.
First of all, the level has been increased to level 22, with 65% additional experience, and mastered a huge killer weapon like Thunder Cloud Storm, as well as magical skills such as invisibility and soul-summoning. At least in terms of safety, Zhang Luochen has the ability to protect himself. Now his strength can definitely be called a real master.
The psychological pressure on life safety is finally not that great, and it can develop slowly next.
The second is the harvest of treasures, and I won’t mention various inner alchemy and top-quality weapons. What excited him the most were those Taoist books.
When he was free, Zhang Luochen began to study these Taoist books.
He started practicing immediately without any preparation, but it was always right to look at the contents of these Taoist books first.
First of all, the "Taiyin Corpse Sutra". The content of this book is about the secret technique of corpse driving. It records how to refine corpse soldiers, how to use the yin and yang energy to resurrect corpses, and how to use talismans to control the resurrected corpses to serve. Some of the contents are very evil. Some spell rituals are quite bloody, and the resurrected corpse soldiers are of the nature of the undead, which reminds Zhang Luochen of the undead magic in the game.
He is not going to practice this thing. First of all, this spell is too weird and evil. At first glance, it is not a good thing. Secondly, it is really disgusting to deal with corpses all day long.
Third, the power of this corpse driving technique is really average. The corpse soldiers he created are far inferior to the heavenly soldiers he summoned. They have no cost-effectiveness at all, so they can only collect them first.
Next is the "Nine Netherworlds Returning to the Soul Sutra", which is more profound. The book talks about how to summon ghosts, control ghosts, refine and reshape ghosts, create controllable ghosts, and even have the method of resurrection.
However, according to the book, this resurrection of the dead is simply forcibly attaching the ghost to the Taoist corpse and making it a resurrection corpse. It is not really resurrected, so it doesn't feel very useful.
As for controlling ghosts, let alone the Yellow Turban Warrior he summoned is a Yin God, and he can basically control all ghosts and get a level of the same level than ordinary ghosts. So why do you need to refine weak ghost messengers?
So this book can only be used as a collection first.
The third book is "Yangshen Lu". Zhang Luochen had some ideas about this book. It was still interesting to leave the soul. Although the side effects were a little too big, it would be over if someone accidentally destroyed his body. However, he was protected by the guardian heavenly soldiers, so it was not that dangerous. If you look back, you can practice it when you have time. Maybe it can be of some wonderful use at critical moments.
The last book is "The Greatest Essence of Cave", which has a very mysterious name, but after Zhang Luochen reads it carefully, he found that it was actually a book that taught people how to tell fortunes.
There is no magical magic effect, and it is more similar to books such as the Book of Changes and Tuibei Tu.
The content is all-encompassing. It introduces dozens of fortune telling and divination methods. These divination techniques and divination rituals look very interesting. Moreover, these methods do not require any mana or magic thresholds. They are all ritual methods, and ordinary people can also use them.
If it were changed to the original world, I would probably sneer at it. However, Zhang Luochen could not take it lightly in this world. After all, there are ghosts and gods in this world. Maybe this "Congxuan Yaoshu" can really calculate something.
Anyway, he was idle, so Zhang Luochen picked a simple divination technique and started experimenting.
This divination technique is called the technique of dream interpretation.
The method of this technique is very simple. First find a quiet room, ignite three sandalwood in the quiet room, place it on the table, and place it around it separately. You need to place a handful of loess, a cup of clear water, a piece of willow branches, a lit candle, and a copper coin.
Place the incense table three steps away in front of you, and then place three sandalwood sticks in three steps behind you.
Write down what you want to ask on a piece of paper and hang it upside down above your head.
Then drink a glass of rice wine, lie down and close your eyes and wait for a moment.
If successful, you may get the answer to the question.
Notes were also written at the end.
1. Do not fall asleep during the ceremony.
2. Do not open your eyes until the three sandalwoods burn out.
3. If you hear someone speak, you are not allowed to respond.
Zhang Luochen thought that this thing is quite interesting and does not involve spell casting, so there should be no danger. It just feels a little bit irritating. You can get the answer to the question by doing this? This is too fake.
But I don’t know how this answer will emerge?
Unfortunately, the content written in this book is not exhaustive, only the methods and precautions of the ceremony. As for how the ceremony takes effect, what consequences will be if the precautions are violated, it is not mentioned at all.
But anyway, he was idle, so he asked his servants to find these things, find an empty room, arrange these things in turn, then sent the servants away, and summoned the Yellow Turban Strongman to let him stay outside the door.
As for what questions to ask, I thought about it and decided to ask a question that is not very relevant to me first, and I would like to ask how the current war between the Southern Zhou Kingdom and the Central Zhou Kingdom will develop.
Zhang Luochen thought about it and wrote the problem on the paper, then drank rice wine, lay down in an empty room, and covered the paper with the problem on his face.
I lay down for a while with my eyes closed, and the more I went, the more I felt that this was quite stupid. I couldn't help but want to get up. But after all, I thought about it, I'd better stick to it until the end.
The smell of sandalwood lingers on the tip of the nose, and the slightly intoxicating feeling brought by rice wine, I lie down with my eyes closed for a while, and I feel a little sleepy.
Fortunately, he still remembered the precautions in the book and tried to keep himself awake. However, suddenly, he felt a heat in his body. At first, he thought it was because he had drunk alcohol, but soon he felt something was wrong. The heat did not come from his body, but from the air around him, as if the whole room had turned into an oven, which had heated up for at least ten degrees, and he felt that his skin became hot.
