Chapter 75
“Merit ...” Xu Qi ‘an frowned and pondered.
In a sense, merit and luck were of the same origin. People often said,”good deeds accumulate virtue, and good people will be rewarded.”
Merit meant fortune, and fortune and luck were the same thing.
So that old Daoist from the earth sect was able to see that I was special? Knowing that I’m a Lucky Star, he threw the hot potato to me with a peace of mind ... D * mn, aren’t you a cultivator of merit? Why did he always do such immoral things ...
Xu Qian cursed in his heart.
From this, he began to make connections. The strange Luck in his body was also a kind of merit?
However, the eighteen generations of the Xu family were all ordinary people. Only the second uncle’s generation was slightly better. The two brothers were still killing people who cut electric wires with a vegetable knife and caused sparks and lightning along the way.
He didn’t do much good, but he did kill many people on the battlefield.
At this moment, the administrator brought over a cup of hot tea and said, “”My Lord, are you looking for information on the human sect?”
No, they were investigating the Earth sect ... “Human sect?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.
“Our state preceptor is the current head of the path of the human sect.” “Lord Wei did not like that female Taoist head,” the official said.
The female Dao leader ... Ah, that legendary Daoist nun?
Xu Qi ‘an was suddenly enlightened. In the past, he only knew that the Emperor was obsessed with cultivation and yearned for immortality. He had made a Daoist nun, who was as beautiful as a fairy, the state Teacher.
He did not expect it to be the human sect!
The sorcerers of the Directorate of Celestials, the Daoist and human sects, the night watchmen, the Confucians of the Yun Lu Academy, the great Feng Army, the group of civil officials in the Imperial court ... The capital was like a small pond, but it was filled with flood Dragons.
No wonder “number nine” said that the people of the heaven and earth Association did not dare to enter the capital.
Golden Lotus Daoist priest,”come in and try.”
The Heaven and Earth Society’s killer:
‘Hahaha ...’ Xu Qi ‘an raised the corner of his mouth and said,”find me some more information about the” Heaven and Earth Society.”Oh, and the Book of the Earth.” ‘Do you know The Earth Book? it’s the most precious treasure in the world ...’ Uh, if I want to go to warehouse a, B, C, and 3, through what channel should I apply?”
“Warehouse B and C correspond to golden gongs and silver gongs,” the clerk replied with a smile. As for warehouse a, one had to have a letter from the Duke of Wei to enter. However, the information you’re looking for about the Heaven and Earth Society and the earth Book is in Warehouse D.”
Seeing that Xu Qi ‘an was stunned, he explained, “”The Heaven and Earth Society sounds like a Jianghu organization, while The Earth Book is a legendary ancient magic treasure. Neither of them are confidential. I’ll go check the manual and see where it is.”
After that, he went to the reception desk.
Xu Qi ‘an looked at his back and was stunned for a while before he understood.
He had fallen into the wrong mindset, thinking that the more ancient something was, the more confidential it would be. The more ancient an item was, the less valuable it was ... Well, it was not a question of value. Antiques were still very valuable, but it was classified.
The real secrets were things related to the current era, such as military intelligence, border defense layout, gunpowder formulas, siege weapons, shipbuilding drawings, and so on.
I believe that in the future, warehouse a will have another confidential file:”Secret manual on the cross-breeding between man and beast”
[ author: Song Qing, Xu Qi ‘an. ]
Soon, the clerk found the information related to The Earth Book and the heaven and earth Association.
Xu Qi ‘an couldn’t wait to read it. The heaven and earth Association was related to his own safety, so he chose to understand the organization first.
.....
There were thousands of organizations and sects in the underworld, so there was nothing to pay special attention to.
They managed some shady businesses and were all obedient and willing to obey the Imperial court. Some of the Jianghu forces with particularly deep foundations did not buy the Imperial court’s words.
However, their existence also played a role in stabilizing the area, and occasionally, they would spontaneously suppress the bandits.
The Heaven and Earth Society was one of the unremarkable Jianghu organizations.
The earliest record of it appeared 60 years ago. That year, Yunzhou was suffering from a great drought, and the refugees became bandits and plundered everywhere.
Natural and human disasters wreaked havoc.
The local Jianghu forces had joined forces with the Imperial court to suppress the bandits, and the Tiandi society was one of them.
they seem to be a rather chivalrous organization ... Well, sometimes, a good person might not be a good person, just like how a philanthropist might not be doing charity sincerely.”
It could also be to gain reputation ... Xu Qi ‘an took a sip of tea and continued to read.
The Heaven and Earth Society wasn’t an active organization. It was a semi-secret organization, and there were very few records about it.
Xu Qi ‘an didn’t gain much after reading it.
it’s normal to not have any gains. To be able to force the earth sect’s experts to escape to the capital, it means that it’s a very large and powerful organization ...
“It’s reasonable for such an organization to be able to hide from the night watchman’s intelligence network. Should I report this to brother spring and enrich the night watchman’s database?”
“Uh ... Let’s forget about it for now.”
He didn’t intend to report this matter to the Yamen. Although this could be exchanged for a great deal of credit, it couldn’t be compared to five hundred taels of gold.
‘Anyone would be envious of a treasure like the earth Book. What if some golden gong takes a fancy to it and asks me to hand it over to the National Treasury ...’
Xu Qi ‘an closed the book and opened the information related to The Earth Book.
The book of the nether world was an ancient treasure. Its origin could not be verified. It was only known that it was left behind by the venerable Daoist whose birth age could not be verified.
The information didn’t even mention the function of The Earth Book.
However, there was a remark that said that these ancient treasures were mostly born from heaven and earth and could not be refined by man.
They had a common characteristic, which was to bind them with blood.
Blood contract ... Xu Qian thought to himself,”I know this trick. After so many twists and turns, it turns out to be a blood contract.”
...
The Dharma artifact that Song Qing gave him, the gong that the night watchman used, only needed to be instilled with Qi to be used. There was no concept of whether it recognized an owner or not. They were essentially tools that could be used by anyone who had them.
Xu Qi ‘an felt that blood ownership claim did not exist in this world.
He took out a small Jade Mirror from his pocket and placed it on the table. He unsheathed his saber by two inches and gently pressed his fingertips on the blade.
Fresh blood seeped out immediately, and Xu Qi ‘an wiped it on the surface of the Jade Mirror.
The blood stayed on the mirror for a few seconds before it slowly disappeared and was absorbed by the mirror.
The next moment, Xu Qi ‘an’s vision started to blur. The booklet, the table, and the teacups all faded and were replaced by chaos.
In the chaos, he saw eight points of light hanging in the chaos World.
These eight dots of light represent the other mirrors? Including me, there are exactly nine mirrors ... Xu Qi ‘an’s eyes swept around, trying to find [ No. 9 ].
But he didn’t know which light spot number nine belonged to.
‘Hmm ...’ He randomly added anyone as a friend!
Xu Qi ‘an raised his hand and tried to point at the spot of light closest to him.
...
The light spot immediately rippled like water, spreading across the entire chaotic world.
Xu Qi ‘an felt like she was in a dream. The scenery in front of her returned to normal. She was still in the reception hall of the document library. In front of her were a booklet, a teacup, and a plain Jade Mirror.
However, he knew that this was not a dream, because after the blood contract, the small Jade Mirror and he had formed a strange connection.
It was a mysterious sense of belonging.
At this moment, a line of words slowly appeared in the mirror:
[ Lu: don’t believe number nine. Don’t respond, don’t respond, don’t respond ... ]
