The round bead, which was originally as pure white as stone, now had a red streak.
Even if Wei Changtian didn't understand it, he still understood that this red light must be the one that just disappeared here.
so......
After the death of the white-feathered red bird, a strange brilliance of unknown origin appeared in his mouth, and then it was absorbed by the bead of unknown origin??
Can anyone explain to me what is going on???
Wei Changtian held the ball in his hand and looked at it for a long time, and then looked at Yang Liushi. After a long while, he finally asked slowly:
"Did the white-feathered red bird appear because of this bead?"
"I don't know, but now it seems..."
Yangliu paused and said softly: "Sir, I can actually feel a very weak attraction from this round bead."
"attract?"
Wei Changtian was stunned and immediately felt it carefully, but found nothing.
Compared with these strange beads, Yangliu's poem may be more attractive to him.
"Why didn't I feel it?"
Wei Changtian frowned and asked, "Are you sure? Could it be that you are overthinking?"
"Probably not."
Yang Liushi turned her head and glanced at Lu Huang and the others who were still standing on the shore with their eyes closed. She leaned into Wei Changtian's ear and lowered her voice to analyze:
"The slave family feels that perhaps only demons can feel this attraction, and the deeper the Taoism, the more difficult it is to resist."
"This can explain why the white-feathered red bird behaved as it did just now."
"..."
Does it only work on demons? The deeper the path, the easier it is to be attracted by this ball?
His eyes changed. Wei Changtian thought for a while and found that this statement was not unreasonable.
But even so, we still don’t know the specific function of the beads.
"Put away the beads first."
He ordered Yang Liushi and turned to look at Lu Huang and the others.
Wei Changtian hesitated for a moment, then raised his voice and said:
"General Lu, Colonel Huang, Zhang San!"
"You can open your eyes!"
...
"Son."
Soon, Lu Huang and the others walked close to Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi.
They had just faced the sudden red light but had no reaction. From this, it was judged that they did not open their eyes against the order, and naturally they had no idea what had just happened.
"Zhang San."
Looking back at the empty Xianchi Lake, Wei Changtian ordered softly:
"Send a message to Chu Xianping and ask him to go to Qingxian to ask something immediately."
"Yes, sir, please speak."
Zhang San was stunned for a moment, then bowed and answered, quietly waiting for the next words.
The lake surface is calm and the wind and snow have stopped.
Wei Changtian organized his language slightly, and then continued:
"Let him ask Qingxian if he knows an object."
"This object is a white round bead, half the size of a palm. It feels like a stone and has no fluctuations in true energy."
"However, this bead may be useful in attracting monsters, and the higher the monster's moral character, the stronger the effect."
"Then... forget it, that's all."
"..."
"The villain understands."
Zhang San's response was half a beat too slow, and he had obviously guessed what beads Wei Changtian was referring to.
After all, everyone saw the scene in the morning when the little fox presented the treasure.
However, astonished as they were, neither Lu Huang nor the other three asked any more questions, and Zhang San immediately took out the mother-in-law jade and started sending the message.
Not long after, he raised his head and reported:
"Sir, I have passed the news to Mr. Chu."
"Mr. Chu replied and said that he would go to Weiyang Palace to ask Senior Qingxian about the matter immediately."
"OK."
Nodding, Wei Changtian glanced at the night sky where no more snowflakes were falling.
"Since it's not snowing anymore, let's rest for another quarter of an hour and then continue on our way."
...
...
Chu Xianping's movements were slower than expected.
I don’t know if it was because Qing Xian had already fallen asleep in the middle of the night, or for some other reason, but Zhang San didn’t receive a reply until the next morning.
"Sir, Mr. Chu has replied..."
At this time, everyone had just reached an unknown mountain peak and were preparing to go down the mountain along the route of last night's avalanche.
Seeing Zhang San's expression, Wei Changtian immediately ordered him to rest where he was, and then followed the former a little further away.
"How to say?"
Standing on the back of a huge rock, Wei Changtian asked in a low voice: "Does Qingxian know about this thing?"
"Back to Young Master, Young Master Chu said that Senior Qingxian is not sure what this bead is, but he has several guesses."
Zhang San also lowered his voice very low and repeated the reply content verbatim:
"First, this bead is cut and ground from the trunk of a requiem tree."
"This tree can emit a special smell that is inaudible to humans but can be smelled by many monsters. Monsters like this smell very much, so they often follow the smell and eat the leaves of the requiem branches."
"It's just because of this that most requiem trees cannot grow too tall, and now they are almost extinct..."
Requiem tree?
Although it was the first time he heard this name, Wei Changtian immediately judged that the bead was definitely not made of wood.
Then he heard Zhang San continue to say:
"Second, it is a kind of rock on the sea."
"This reef is a specialty found in the very depths of the seabed. It is very rare in the world. It also has the function of attracting monsters."
"It's just that this reef is not white, and generally it can only attract some aquatic monsters..."
"Sir, I see that the bead doesn't look dyed, so it probably doesn't belong to this reef."
Zhang Sanduo gave his own judgment. Wei Changtian didn't say anything, just nodded and asked:
"Anymore?"
"Oh, there is one last guess."
Zhang San paused and his voice became softer.
"However, Senior Qingxian has not seen this object with his own eyes. He has only read the description of this object from a demon clan stone tablet, so he does not know whether it is true or false."
"And this matter is so far away that senior Qingxian can't remember all the inscriptions now. He can only recall a few sentences..."
There are several different peaks in the Tianshan Mountains. One peak is sunny and the other is covered with snow.
Chaoyang revealed that under Wei Changtian's gaze, Zhang San whispered two sentences.
"Pearls are like white jade. Monsters can swallow them to replace elixirs. Evil thoughts and greed will flock to them like ducks, especially big monsters."
"Whenever this pearl appears in the world, the demon clan will be in chaos, just like the disaster of the sun destroying it, so it is named solar eclipse."
"..."
Solar eclipse?
Hearing Zhang San's last two sentences, Wei Changtian was slightly startled. He felt that these descriptions were quite consistent with the round bead.
However, there are some things that were not mentioned.
For example, what's going on with that red light?
How did the white-feathered red bird sense the existence of the round bead?
I don't know whether these questions were not mentioned on the stone tablet, or whether Qingxian mentioned them and didn't remember them.
Wei Changtian wasn't even sure whether the bead was a "solar eclipse" or not.
But this is already the most reliable answer.
After thinking for a moment, Wei Changtian searched the system for the word "solar eclipse" with the attitude of giving it a try.
【none】
A simple word means that there is no prop with this name in the system.
However, when he changed the search term to "solar eclipse beads"...
[Solar eclipse bead: a special prop that can absorb 30% of the cultivation level of a monster with a level of more than 500 years (no upper limit) after death. After any monster swallows this bead, it can replace its own elixir with this bead. Note: This bead is effective for all monsters.
The monster has a certain temptation effect, and the intensity and range of the effect are determined by the monster's behavior and the number of cultivation levels stored in this bead. 3000 points]
