They chatted as they ate. Wang Xiangyun might be a pretty girl, but her appetite was not small. She did not care if she wanted to lose weight and ate like crazy.
Through the conversation, Lu Shiwu gained a certain understanding of the Cultivation circle in the country.
It was not accurate to say that they were in the cultivation world because they did not have magical power. They could only use their own "fate" to exchange for the effect of spells. The price was too high!
For example, Wang Xiangyun, who had been a "grass ghost woman" for many years, had never used witchcraft on anyone, but she often had to suffer the pain of the backlash of the witchcraft worm.
That was the pain that truly gnawed at his soul!
Once it was used on a person, the Gu worm would have seen blood, and the backlash would become even more serious, eventually devouring her as its master.
This was the lack of "life" among the five disadvantages and three shortcomings!
It was the same for the others. The price of using magic was too high. In ancient times, human lives were cheap, so many people would risk their own "fate" for this so-called "magic".
However, it was different in modern times. How expensive was a human life? I haven't enjoyed enough of a prosperous life!
In fact, from the density of soul fragments that were scattered in the world, one could see how terrifying the density of soul fragments in the world was in the ancient times when human lives were as insignificant as grass.
When the people were in dire straits, or when a fatuous ruler was in power, the resentment in the soul fragments would be great. This was the so-called "when a country is about to fall, there must be a demon".
……
"Alright, Boss, let it go. It knows fear now.”
Wang Xiangyun finally moved her toes away. The golden silkworm on the ground was crushed here and there, but it was actually fine.
After Lu Shiwu released " Soul Catcher," the silkworm's soul burrowed into Golden Silkworm's body and turned into a golden light before disappearing…It was so fast!
Lu Shiwu could only barely see it crawl into Wang Xiangyun's clothes. The restaurant owner and the other customers did not see anything.
He was a little envious…
Cough!
Lu Shiwu looked at the seven or eight souls clinging onto Wang Xiangyun's body and pondered."Did you collect soul fragments from heaven and earth to raise this Gu worm?”
"How would I know!" Wang Xiangyun rolled her eyes and said,"However, my Amma told me that our side techniques are no secret to orthodox people like you. Since you said so, then it's true!”
Lu Shiwu was speechless.
He was really scared. Actually, after seeing Wang Xiangyun, Lu Shiwu already had some guesses about the "gu".
According to folk legends, Gu was a combination of a hundred different poisonous insects. They would kill each other and the last survivor would be the Gu.
But now, it seemed that it was not that simple.
Insects, even poisonous insects, did not have a complete soul!
It was obvious that in the process of killing, the Gu Master used some method to let the poisonous insects devour some kind of soul fragment in the world and refine it.
This should be the real way to nurture a Gu!
Lu Shiwu had some understanding, and it was probably the same for the other unorthodox sects.
F * ck!
In the past, the orthodox cultivators were really cunning. The first divine power they had after entering the Dao and building their foundation was the Ethereal Exorcism.
However, the core of these unorthodox techniques was the refinement of the soul. In front of "Ethereal Opening and Soul Exorcism", they were completely exposed. There were no secrets, and they could even directly restrain it!
In this way, the unorthodox sect would never be able to fight against the orthodox sect and would forever be a subsidiary sect…
Bad! He was really too bad!
……
"Oh right, I also brought you a gift this time.”Wang Xiangyun chewed and swallowed the food in her mouth like a mole. Then, she took out her phone and operated it.
Lu Shiwu's phone rang. He took it out and saw that Wang Xiangyun had sent him a bunch of photos.
Sword Dao!
"What is this?" Lu Shiwu blinked. Martial arts manuals?"
Wang Xiangyun chuckled and said,"The Book of Han. Do you know about Yiwen Zhi?"
"…I don't know." Lu Shiwu said honestly.
"Ban Gu's 'Han Shu·Yi Wen Zhi' recorded 38 'Sword Doctrine' in it. Modern people thought that it was lost.”
Wang Xiangyun shook her head, her expression very proud."Actually, it has been hidden in our village. I can't give you the original copy. I can only take photos.”
" No one has ever been able to master it. My Amma said that only the orthodox can learn it and teach it to others…If you can master it, can you teach me?" This is an ancient sword technique!"
"Mhm, let me take a look first."
Lu Shiwu replied casually as he lowered his head and stared at the photo on his phone.
The font from 2,000 years ago was too different from the present. The grammar, meaning, and writing style were also very different. Unless one was a professional ancient calligraphy expert, one would not be able to understand it.
If Lu Shiwu had not studied the Daoist Canon for three years, he would not have understood it.
But even so, looking at it now, he still felt that it was obscure and difficult to understand. Half of it had to be guessed…
……
Wang Xiangyun looked at Lu Shiwu's focused expression and shrugged. She ignored him and continued to eat.
He wondered how her astonishingly slender waist could accommodate so much food.
"Here! Here! Come quickly, I see him!"
At the entrance of the restaurant, a woman suddenly pointed at the inside of the restaurant and shouted to the side.
Both the customers and the boss were attracted by it.
The next moment, a man and a woman rushed into the shop. The woman held a microphone while the man held a camera. They surrounded Lu Shiwu's table.
Wang Xiangyun was a little confused. She bit her chopsticks with her small mouth and looked very cute in a daze.
