"That's it." After a while of joking, Yu Beidou said: "The outer building-level Taoist skills I promised you were originally given to any one, but they may not be suitable for all. Now I will help you customize what type of Taoist skills you want.
All is fine, what do you think about this condition being balanced against those Dao Yuan Stones?"
“It’s Yuan Stone.” Jiang Wang reminded: “And it’s not just a few pieces, it’s dozens of pieces.”
“I’m just talking about a rough imaginary number. Do you understand imaginary numbers?” Yu Beidou stared at him.
“I understand imaginary numbers.” Jiang Wang nodded: “Just talk about it, if I don’t object, it will become a real number.”
Yu Beidou became angry: "Just tell me whether you agree or not! If you don't agree, then you will have to wait for a few days!"
“Okay.” Jiang Wang pinched his nose and said.
“You’re still very good at choosing!” Yu Beidou immediately restrained his anger and smiled in a relaxed tone: “Boy, you are very discerning, you will definitely make a profit!”
“I have a trading company in Qi State,” Jiang Wang said.
“Huh?” Yu Beidou didn’t understand why he suddenly said this.
“Everyone can do business. Not everyone can be trustworthy, and contracts cannot regulate everything. I have seen a lot of bad debts, and I have been open to a lot.”
Jiang Wang sighed: "I can get a little back, but what else can I do?"
"Yes, the world is in decline, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be!" Yu Beidou seemed to be completely unable to understand the implication, and he sighed in agreement: "In this world, people who are as committed as you and me are very rare.
So why do I appreciate you so much and be so generous to you, do you understand?"
“…” Jiang Wang got straight to the point: “I want a tracking Taoist technique, preferably starting from the power of the soul. Do you have a suitable Taoist technique?”
Looking at everything I have mastered, I now have the Qingyun Immortal Technique for movement, the Sword Technique for killing, the Fire Realm, and the Five Divine Powers. I have also added a lot of soul attack methods, and the state Tao Techniques include the Sravaka Immortal State, and the Five Secret Treasures...
…
In real terms, there are not many shortcomings. What Jiang Wang wants to make up for right now is his ability to track and disappear.
This way, next time you track an opponent like Yang Xuance, you won't easily fall into an ambush. If you are pursued by an opponent like Zhao Xuanyang, you may be able to delay it for a little longer.
Tracking and concealment can complement each other, and he is more inclined to the tracking ability. This is essentially another form of offense instead of defense.
When tracking a path, one should start from the five senses. Grasp the clues of the five senses and trace the roots. Of course, there are also many top secret methods, but it is inevitable that there are many similarities and they can be easily countered. If possible, Jiang Wang still hopes to use the soul aspect.
The advantages.
Based on these considerations, quite specific requirements were put forward.
Yu Beidou was not in any embarrassment. He pondered for a moment and then said: "What tracking skills have you mastered now? You might as well use it to see."
Jiang Wang just flicked his finger, and smoke condensed on his fingertips, turning into a memorial grass and swaying in the air.
"The level is lower than I thought." Yu Beidou teased casually: "It seems that Jiang Captou lacks experience in apprehending criminals, and Qi Guo's Qingpai has no threshold!"
Jiang Wang didn’t say a word and just lay flat and let the ridicule go. He had only handled a few cases since he joined the job, so he really didn’t have much confidence to say that he could afford the green card around his waist.
Yu Beidou said this without stopping. He only touched it gently and took the memorial grass condensed by Taoism into his hand, and looked at it quietly for a while.
“The foundation of this Taoist art is very good, and there is good room for evolution. I can add some ideas to it, and there is a secret art that can also be incorporated into it.”
He described it like this, and then his five fingers were slightly open and upward, forming a "round bowl".
The memorial grass gathered by the smoke was floating quietly in the sky above his palm.
It seems to be just floating, but there are subtle differences.
Jiang Wang looked carefully and noticed that there was a transparent cover on Yu Beidou's palm, covering the memorial grass.
With this transparent cover as the dome and the palm as the earth, a small world is formed, which is called a round sky and a round place. It is independent in this square cave and is different from other places.
In the space of this hand, things begin to change.
But the green grass turns yellow, withers and comes back to life again.
From a grass seed to a wisp of fading color.
The cycle of life and death changes in an instant.
In the small world in the palm of your hand, Bicao's life is staged.
From beginning to end, repeat.
This was a novel scene at first, but it became very monotonous after seeing it too much, but Jiang Wang couldn't take his eyes off it.
He vaguely seemed to see something, but that little bit of inspiration was always vague and could not be grasped. He simply did not want to miss any details, and he also had an intuition that he should not miss it.
Then Yu Beidou turned his hand.
So the world was turned upside down.
The small world where the green grass evolved disappeared in the palm of your hand.
Yu Beidou stretched out his hand in front of Jiang Wang and said softly: "Go on."
Jiang Wang Yiyan stretched out his hand, and a translucent ball fell into his palm.
In the round ball, there is a smoky green grass solidified.
This translucent ball had a solid touch, was smooth and cool. But after it landed in Jiang Wang's hand, it actually fell "down", falling inward against the palm of his hand, as if it had fallen into water.
And Jiang Wang’s palm is just like the surface of the lake.
The small ball kept sinking, disappearing into the palm of the hand and sinking into the "water".
At the same time, in Jiang Wang's heart, sentences and sentences passed quietly.
This is a brand new "memory", an outer-level tracking technique!
"How?" Yu Beidou looked at him very proudly: "This technique is the best at the outer level, but if there is a confrontation and the soul is aware, it will not stop within three days and chase it thousands of miles away! You kid has made a lot of money.
!”
In Jiang Wang's view, this Taoist technique is very similar to Lin Youxie's "Nianchen" technique passed down from his family. However, the art of "Nianchen" is like connecting the heart to the dust, and its fundamental principle is to leave a mark on the tracking target. And Yu Beidou
The re-evolved art of remembrance imprints the recognition of the tracking target on one's own soul level, thus forming a soul-level induction.
Relatively speaking, the art of thinking about the dust is more precise and can last longer. The art of remembering is more subtle.
After thinking about it carefully, Jiang Wang nodded and said, "It's not bad."
He stood up neatly and said: "Master Yu, please just say goodbye."
“Wait a minute!” Yu Beidou stretched out his hand and pulled him back to sit next to him: “How could you, a young man like you, cross the river and demolish the bridge? I haven’t finished speaking yet!”
In front of Yu Beidou, Jiang Wang certainly had no room for resistance.
He was pushed aside and could only sit down. But his voice was very calm, neither humble nor arrogant: "I thought we had money and goods, and we didn't owe each other anything."
"Alas!" Yu Beidou said with a sad face: "It seems that you still have opinions and grudges against me!"
"The word 'hate' is too strong." Jiang Wang said seriously: "Jiang Wang is just self-aware and thinks he is incapable of getting involved in your old man's affairs, and he doesn't want to risk his own life anymore. Maybe you have
My mission and commitment may be great and profound, but I also have my own way to go."
Yu Beidou suppressed the Blood Demon and killed the Prime Minister, which was undoubtedly a just act.
But Jiang Wang also has his own life. He has no elders or backers, and he must be responsible for himself.
"Understood." Yu Beidou stopped teasing and focused his gaze not far ahead: "I actually have nothing else to do with you, I just want to chat with you for a few words, probably because you are older...or maybe you are in a hurry.
Time?"
Jiang Wang remembered that the place where Yu Beidou's eyes fell was exactly where the Blood Demon and the Gua Master were lying before. Of course, there were no traces of them now, and they had all disappeared in the sword of Yan Chunhui.
At this time, Yu Beidou seemed to have stripped away the aura of a strong man, and actually gave people the feeling of a lonely old man.
"What do you want to talk about?" Jiang Wang relaxed his body's resistance, and his posture became more relaxed, and said frankly: "I am chatting with you now with the kindness of a junior towards a senior. If there is anything in the process, I feel that I
If I shouldn’t hear anything, I will leave immediately. Please understand.”
"Once bitten by a snake, will you be afraid of the well rope for ten years?" Yu Beidou said with a self-deprecating smile: "It's really annoying for people like me. Because they can see a little bit of the future, they will play around with the chess game and do things that they think are right.
, and disregarding other people's feelings... is annoying, right? It will inevitably make you avoid people like snakes and scorpions."
Jiang Wang thought to himself that Master Yu was not that unaware.
He only said: "I am timid and cautious, but I made the real person laugh."
Yu Beidou kept looking at the empty ground. He didn't know whether he was looking at the disappeared blood demon or the divination master.
He seems to be equally indifferent to both.
Yu Beidou did not continue this topic, but started his story with a question——
“Do you know what fortune telling is?”
Jiang Wang thought for a while and shook his head.
Except that this is a very ancient divination technique and that Yu Beidou inherited this technique, he knows nothing else. He really doesn't know what he can communicate with Yu Beidou about this.
“The art of fortune telling is the art of looking into the future.
In that very, very ancient era, there was actually no future to speak of, at least for the human race.
Countless human beings have multiplied in this world.
Thousands of years of confusion, life and death are like the life of a tree.
The spring breeze spurs birth and the wildfire burns out.
Human beings are born and die one after another, bringing nothing to this world when they come, and leaving nothing to this world when they leave.
There is no trace left or gone, even for thousands of years.
Among countless mediocre human beings, there was an unusual person who looked up.
Seeing the dim light of the sky, and a slightly different road ahead.
So this person said, can we try to go in this direction...
This is the origin of the art of fortune telling.”
Yu Beidou said slowly: "That man's name is Bu Lian. He is one of the Eight Wise Ministers of the Suiren clan of the Human Emperor. He is in charge of witchcraft and praying to heaven for blessings. Because he was the first to enlighten the Human Emperor, he is also called the Master of the Human Emperor.
."
Divide history by major eras. The long river of time is so turbulent—ancient times, ancient times, medieval times, modern times, and the modern world.
Each of these great eras is magnificent and vast. It can also be divided into many smaller eras based on time and events.
For example, the Feijian Age and the Immortal Age are all included in the modern era.
The ancient era was the era when the demon clan ruled the world, and it was also the longest era so far. Its beginning is unknown, and how long it lasted cannot be verified.
At that time, the human race generally had a blocked path, and only a handful of geniuses could practice cultivation.
The first generation of human emperors, the Suiren clan, rose up in adversity, protected the human race, and struggled to survive. He was assisted by eight virtuous ministers to fight against the evil world.
Bu Lian was one of the eight virtuous ministers. His reputation spread far and wide, and he was called the mentor of the emperor.
Although the information of that ancient era has withered and many deeds have disappeared, Jiang Wang still knew the name of a big man like Bu Lian, and he couldn't help but feel shocked.
The origin of this fortune-telling technique is truly astonishing!
No wonder Yu Beidou was able to calculate the blood demon, Yan Chunhui, and the fortune teller and Jiang Wang to calculate everything in the Soul-Dead Gorge and control the overall situation...
This series of hexagrams can certainly be called miraculous, but compared to the Bu Lian hexagrams that predicted the future of the human race and enlightened the emperor, what is it?
From this point of view, the importance of Yu Beidou, a real person, needs to be re-examined.
After all, the art of fortune-telling is ancient and has lasted for several eras!
“Senior, I was originally a descendant of the sages and inherited this supreme skill. But Jiang Wang is disrespectful.” Jiang Wang cupped his hands and said.
"The first is wise, the latter may not be worthy. What's so respectable?" Yu Beidou said casually: "The art of fortune telling is too old and has gone through too much. Of course it has a glorious past...but we must
Face the present."
Jiang Wang was puzzled: “Now?”
“It’s time to end.” Yu Beidou said softly.
These words made Jiang Wangqi confused.
Yu Beidou has been performing the hexagram for half a lifetime, and has calculated all the gods and ghosts. He is among the strongest real people in the world, and his fortune-telling technique is so powerful that even Yan Chunhui, the true king of Yan Dao, can avoid it. Why do you say... it should end?
“Why?” Jiang Wang asked.
Yu Beidou smiled: "Since the ancestors divided the star fields, consolidated the stars, connected cause and effect, and combined numerology, it has evolved to the present day. The art of astrology has become orthodox and popular. And the art of fortune telling has been a trend long before that.
The dust of history.”
The art of astrology has become the orthodoxy of divination and has completely replaced the status of the art of fortune telling.
This is a secret that Jiang Wang has never heard of, an undercurrent flowing in time.
It is an innovation in the art of divination and a great corner of this world.
But Yu Beidou's smile clearly showed no bitterness at all. It could even be said to be very cheerful, but it made people feel bitter for no reason.
"It shouldn't be like this." Jiang Wang honestly said his inner feelings: "The art of destiny fortune-telling has made great contributions to the human race, and it shouldn't be the dust of history. And it has been passed down to this day, why can't it continue to be passed on? Master, do you predict?
How can we not carry forward this way if we are able to communicate with the gods?"
“It’s great to be young!” Yu Beidou smiled happily.
After laughing for a while, he said: "Throughout the ages, how many heroes and heroes have perished.
How many great achievements have disappeared like smoke.
How many magical scriptures have been lost in the sea of people!
What should go will go, and what should die will perish.
Why should the art of fortune telling be an exception?”
Jiang Wang thought for a while and said in a broad voice: "After all, the sages have enlightened the emperor with the art of fortune telling, which has great merits for the human race..."
“Do you know how Bu Lian, the founder of fortune-telling, died?” Yu Beidou asked in return.
Of course it is impossible for Jiang Wang to know about big figures from ancient times.
I can only shake my head.
“The history books will not tell you, and the predecessors will not tell you, but the river of destiny will remember it.”
With an inexplicable smile on his face, Yu Beidou announced the truth of history: "Bu Lian was eventually killed by the Human Emperor, who is said to have killed the Imperial Master!"
