Being the secret contact person, Tao Xiaowu didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. He just knew that the water was very deep, very deep, and could drown people.
Especially someone like Tao Xiaowu!
Maybe he, Tao Xiaowu, has some abilities now, but if he interferes in such a big thing, if he is not good, he will not even know how he died.
However, Tao Xiaowu hid his uneasiness deeply in his heart, took out the golden seal, and said: This is the return gift from the king!
The wizard Zhu Lingping looked happy and eagerly took the gold seal. After taking a look at it, he quickly took out a lacquer box and put the gold seal away.
Then he said to Tao Xiaowu: It’s time to sacrifice wine!
But he didn't say that he was extremely grateful. Instead, he took out a piece of silk from his side and said, "A few words of gratitude, recorded some of the witchcraft of our country."
If you are interested in sacrificial wine, you can take it and have a look!
Tao Xiaowu's heart moved. The style of this silk book was familiar to Tao Xiaowu. The silk book that Tao Xiaowu saw last time that recorded the technique of sacrifice also looked like this.
That sacrifice technique is indeed powerful, almost having the effect of reversing fate.
Unfortunately, the price paid is staggering!
Last time, Tao Xiaowu only used the sacrifice technique to solve the trouble of the ghost uncle Hengting. He sacrificed several times, paused, and said with a smile: By the way, I almost forgot. Apart from this silk book,
I’ll give you this bead too!
Streaming Pearl?! Tao Xiaowu blurted out.
It turns out that you recognize this bead, so there is no need for me to say anything more!
Tao Xiaowu really wants to say something. You might as well tell me, what is the origin of this bead?
However, the wizard Zhu Lingping was about to return in a hurry, but ordered a group of ghost soldiers to escort Tao Xiaowu back to the earth.
Tao Xiaowu also knew that the wizard Zhu Lingping was probably eager to send the golden seal back.
This matter is extremely important!
Tao Xiaowu didn't hesitate, and was escorted by a ghost soldier back to the Yangshi.
Almost as soon as Tao Xiaowu walked out of the quiet room, Yang Fuhou, who was pacing at the door, already asked: How!
Tao Xiaowu nodded slightly and said: Fulfill the mission!
Yang Fuhou suddenly showed a happy face and a relieved smile, and said: "Thank you for the hard work of offering wine, let's go back and rest for now. I will hold a banquet on my own someday to reward you with offering wine!"
Tao Xiaowu didn't dare, so he bowed and left.
Getting involved in such a confidential matter, but you don’t know whether it’s a blessing or a curse?
After doing this, Tao Xiaowu became more cautious.
No matter who it was, they didn't mention a word about it.
He even simply stayed behind closed doors and devoted himself to cultivation. Although Marquis Yang Fu did not explain it specifically, Tao Xiaowu knew the importance of this matter and could never let the secret out!
Therefore, Tao Xiaowu took practical actions to show that he would not leak secrets.
From that day on, Tao Xiaowu hid in the yard to practice, becoming more and more reluctant to take a step.
The Marquis of Yang Fu was obviously very satisfied with Tao Xiaowu's actions, and his treatment for Tao Xiaowu doubled.
Even the Marquis of Yangfu bought Shiqing land in Hengyin County and directly gave him the land deed.
These lands are near Wuli, although they are not counted as Shangtian.
But it's not far from Wuli.
And it also includes more than a hundred field slaves and servants in that kind of land.
In this era, perhaps land resources are not that important. After all, there are fewer people and more land!
However, human resources, especially slaves, are quite valuable!
After all, in this era, it is the most ideal model for one man and five people to manage a hundred acres.
In other words, an adult man, with his wife, children, and a family of five, cultivating hundreds of acres of land, can have enough food and clothing, and even be well off.
How could such a thing be possible in later generations during the Ming and Qing Dynasties?
At that time, it was considered good for a homesteader to have two or three acres of land.
With dozens or hundreds of acres of land, you are considered a small landowner!
Of course, the model is only an ideal state, but it is enough to show that in this era, there are many people and few people.
Although there is a lot of land, there are few human resources!
This can be regarded as a kind of tacit reward and reward for Tao Xiaowu.
In addition, Tao Xiaowu's salary was doubled, and the number of servants he served increased even more.
There are countless carriages, swords and other things specially prepared for Tao Xiaowu!
Of course, knowing that Tao Xiaowu was interested in shark beads, he gave him five more shark beads.
Even though Tao Xiaowu didn't care much about other things, he was extremely happy to get these five shark beads.
I couldn't hold back the three shark beads last time. My hand slipped and they were all used up!
After trying the power of shark beads, it was a bit unbearable for Tao Xiaowu to practice with ordinary pearls.
After all, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!
After trying the powerful effect of shark beads, it is simply difficult to accept practicing with ordinary pearls.
It's like you are used to driving a good car and suddenly it feels like a broken tractor!
Tao Xiaowu originally wanted to avoid suspicion, so after getting five shark beads, he naturally hid in his yard and did not go out, taking the essence of the sun and the moon every morning and evening.
In the four seasons, gather the energy from the four directions, practice the four-spirit amulet, and refine the four-spirit amulet.
There are several other magic weapons!
The days were extremely fulfilling and busy.
And in the midst of such busyness, his strength is constantly growing without even realizing it!
Tao Xiaowu even took time to study the silk book given to him by the wizard Zhu Lingping.
The silk book looks very similar to the silk book that records sacrificial techniques, but what is recorded in it is other witchcraft.
The ancient Xi Kingdom was inherited from the ancient God of Fire. Witchcraft was prevalent in the country, and all royal families in the past dynasties were wizards.
The witchcraft recorded in the silk book given to Tao Xiaowu by Wu Zhu Lingping is naturally very sophisticated, far from being as crude and incomplete as what Wu Cheng taught.
More importantly, it records the meaning and pronunciation of some ancient sacred texts.
Of course, the pronunciation cannot be recorded in the text, after all, this is not a pinyin text.
However, after looking at the records in this silk book, Tao Xiaowu realized that ancient sacred texts actually required specific witchcraft rituals before they could obtain the teachings of ghosts and gods.
However, when Tao Xiaowu prepared the witchcraft ritual, he was shocked to find that some of the materials needed for the witchcraft ritual had actually disappeared.
What's even more terrible is that the gods recorded in witchcraft have long since disappeared.
Tao Xiaowu had never even heard of these gods, and there were no temples or legends about them.
It seems that after the fall of the ancient Xi Kingdom, those gods disappeared!
