Taichu Yandao: Starting from the Villain
Chapter 148: A Book of Doctrine
The world became quiet, leaving only the crackling sound of the campfire, and everyone in the tribe had fallen asleep.
Yao Gu took a deep breath and began to circulate the Qi in her body.
Her talent is not as great as Qiu Yong's, so she has always been diligent and never slacks off, a habit she has developed over the years.
After just a dozen breaths, Yao Gu opened her eyes, and her expression was as ugly as it could be.
She tried to practice, but found that the spiritual energy in this world was extremely thin, making it almost impossible to practice.
No, we must find a way to leave as soon as possible!
Nothing happened that night. As soon as the next day's sun rose, Yao Gu set out eastward. She wanted to verify her conjecture from yesterday.
About half an hour later, a lake came into view.
The breeze blew, creating ripples on the lake surface, and as far as the eye could see, the forest on the opposite bank could be vaguely seen.
Yao Gu observed for a while, and seeing that there was no danger, she stepped onto the water.
"This is... Weak Water." Yao Gu tried her best to control her magic power and just managed to steady her body so that she would not sink into the water.
After a while, when she gradually adapted, she took a step forward.
The surface of the calm lake becomes increasingly cold as you walk forward.
After a while, when the sun rose, there was a hint of warmth on the lake.
"Why is the other side still so far away?" Yao Gu turned her head and looked back, and found that she was still several miles away from the shore.
"Is it the same forest as yesterday?" Yao Gu continued to move forward, making a final attempt.
After a cup of tea, she had to accept the fact that she had been standing still.
"If that's the case, according to what Bing said, the south and west are probably the same!" Yao Gu frowned, turned around, left the lake and headed south.
More than an hour later, Yao Gu stood in front of a swamp, staring blankly.
After trying, I found that the conditions of this swamp and lake were exactly the same. Although it felt like I was moving forward, I could only walk a few miles.
Yao Gu was unwilling to give up. Just as she was about to walk west, she suddenly heard Yun Bing's shouting from behind her: "Quiet... No... No..."
At first, Yao Gu didn't want to pay any attention to it, but after being annoyed by the other party's yelling, she finally turned around and went back.
"What are you following me for? Go back now!" Yao Gu waved her hands repeatedly, signaling the other party to go back.
Yun Bing was sweating profusely, but a happy smile appeared on his face. He took out a piece of animal skin from his waist and handed it to the medicine lady.
"What is this? Is it for me?" Yao Gu looked confused.
Yun Bing nodded repeatedly and opened the animal skin, revealing a tattered old book.
The blue cover of the book was extremely worn, and only half of the word "庸" could be vaguely seen in the middle.
"How could these barbarians, who are still uncivilized, have books?" Yao Gu was shocked. She snatched the book and started to read it.
She opened the first page and saw the following words in regular script: "Nature is destiny, following nature is the Way, and cultivating the Way is teaching. The Way cannot be separated from us for even a moment..."
The content of the lines of small characters is surprisingly moderate.
In addition, there is a blue painting on the page, but it is very abstract and I don’t know what it depicts.
Yao Gu turned to the next page. In addition to the scriptures, there was still a painting. The painting showed several men holding spears and fighting a giant snake.
The same is true for the following pages. Some are very easy to understand, while others are difficult to guess the meaning. Until after page eight, the whole book comes to an abrupt end.
Seeing the thread of the book and the fact that the main text of Zhongyong had not yet ended, Yao Gu asked, "Where is the rest? Where did the rest of the book go?"
After listening for a while, Bing gradually understood what Yao Gu meant and pointed the way back.
Yao Gu frowned and thought to herself, "The fact that this book appeared here proves that someone else must have been here before. If we can find out where this book came from, we may be able to find a clue to get out."
She took out a magic talisman and handed it to Bing, indicating that he should lead the way.
The two of them ran all the way, and after about a cup of tea, they saw a row of thatched huts.
Yao Gu thought she had returned to the tribe, but soon discovered something was wrong. There were several round straw huts in the middle of the tribe, which were different from the previous ones.
"Is there another tribe?" Yao Gu was wondering when she suddenly saw Yun Bing stop and yell at the tribe at the top of his voice.
After a while, men and women came out of the straw hut.
They were very enthusiastic and surrounded the two of them, escorting them straight to a round thatched hut.
After exchanging a few words with Bing, he dived in.
Seeing this, Yao Gu hurriedly followed.
Inside the thatched hut sat a white-haired old grandmother, who immediately smiled kindly when she saw the two of them.
Yun Bing took out a bundle of thin ropes from his body and started to communicate with her in a noisy manner.
Yao Gu didn't know what the two were talking about, but she guessed that they seemed to be bargaining.
After a while, the old grandmother nodded, put away the rope of Yun Bing, then rummaged behind her and took out a package of animal skins.
She carefully opened the package, took out half a book, and placed it in front of the two of them.
Yao Gu was overjoyed and wanted to pick it up for a closer look, but just as she stretched out her hand, she was blocked by an old hand.
The old grandmother made a gesture of disapproval and pointed at her eyes.
Yao Gu instantly understood what the other party meant, put her hand down and looked carefully at the first page.
On the first page of the booklet, in addition to the words "moderation", there was also a picture that seemed to be of a deformed baby.
After reading, Yao Gu made a hand gesture and turned the book to the next page.
The white-haired grandmother's eyes popped out when she saw this. She immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "Wu...Wu..."
Medicine Girl frowned slightly, thinking back to the last time she heard the word "Wu" in the context of saving people, she roughly guessed what Wu meant, so she pointed at herself and said, "I'm not a Wu, I'm just a cultivator."
The old grandmother didn't understand at all and kept kowtowing.
Yao Gu had no choice but to help the other person up and signaled to Yun Bing.
It took a lot of talking by Yun Bing before the grandmother stopped kowtowing.
Yao Gu continued to flip through the book. When she reached the seventh page, the blue picture seemed to be unfinished. She could vaguely make out a big hole in the sky and a person falling from the sky.
Yao Gu was shocked. She only remembered that there was a suction force coming and when she woke up she was already in the tribe.
As for how she was discovered, she had no idea.
Will I have the same experience as the person in the painting?
Yao Gu thought about it and pointed at the person falling in the picture and asked, "Who is this person? Where is he?"
The old grandmother looked respectful, pointed at Yao Gu and started talking loudly.
Yao Gu looked at Yun Bing beside her with a look of surprise and asked, "Is this me? Is it An Jing?"
Yun Bing nodded, pointed at the falling person in the picture and said, "You, be quiet."
After he finished speaking, he pointed at the man on the ground holding a spear and said, "I, Yun Bing, win, win."
Yao Gu wanted to die instantly. If her guess was correct, she was actually treated as a prize of victory by this savage.
There are also these blue paintings, which seem to have been drawn by them later to record the important events that happened in the tribe.
Yao Gu continued to flip through the pages and found that the book ended after just a few pages. It was just an ordinary mediocre book.
When the old grandmother saw that Medicine Aunt had finished reading, she coughed, pointed at the last sentence, and looked very sincere, as if asking a question.
Medicine Aunt didn't think much about it and read: "The heaven's carriage is silent and odorless, and it reaches its destination."
