Chapter 355: Recovering the Book of Divination
Pei Anzhu stopped and asked, "What is it?"
“The things we found from other places in the Zhu family should be what you need.” Minister Wen Tao said.
Soon, he took Pei Anzhu to see what he was talking about.
It is a large box filled with books, and these books are exactly the "divination" technique, one of the five classics left by Shu Yunguan.
Pei Anzhu was very surprised when he saw this:
“Where did these come from? I participated in the search of the secret room in Old Zhu’s theater, and I didn’t find any books on Shu Yunguan in those boxes.”
Minister Wen Tao smiled and said:
“They put these classics in a place you would never expect.”
"Where?"
"Bank safe." Wen Tao said, "After reviewing all the circumstances of the Zhu family, we found that they also opened a safe in the bank. It has been at least a hundred years and has never been taken out. We are afraid that we will not be able to follow it. The bones were related, so I brought them back, but I didn't expect them to be Shu Yunguan's classics."
Pei Anzhu couldn't help but laugh after hearing this. This was indeed something she had not expected.
Who is a good person who puts Taoist books in a bank safe?
That old man Zhu, through some residual exercises left by Zhu Cong, was able to study the magic of changing human skin. Why not take those books back, study them by yourself, and learn the orthodox knowledge of Shuyunguan?
But what she wanted to know more was how the Zhu family's "divination" classics came from.
This point was puzzling to her, so she asked.
Minister Wen Tao explained:
"When we interrogated the Zhu family, we also asked them. The Zhu family admitted that these books were handed down by their ancestors at about the same time as Zhu Cong's death. An ancestor of their Zhu family descended from Shu personally. Brought back by Yun Guan.”
"We checked the genealogy and found that the ancestors of the Zhu family's collateral line were also disciples of Shu Yunguan. However, Zhu Cong was an elite of the inner sect, and the collateral line was a handyman of the outer sect. Although they knew each other, they were from the same clan but had different connections. Not close."
"Later, the capable people from Shu Yunguan went to the battlefield to stop the evil spirits. The collateral disciple was not able to participate because of his insufficient cultivation. In the end, he saved his life and asked the other disciples to bring the classics to Shu Yunguan. When they dispersed, they took away the divination books."
“As for why the Zhu family didn’t study these classics…”
When Wen Tao talked about this topic, he thought of something funny and couldn't help but smile, but the smile was slightly ironic.
"Why don't you learn?" Pei Anzhu was very curious.
"Because of the internal fighting in the Zhu family." Wen Tao replied, "Although a big family like this works together to fight for the family, there are also fights between different generations. The old man Zhu in the theater is a direct descendant of Zhu Cong. Therefore, he inherited the skills brought back by Zhu Cong and everything else, but other collateral branches were not so lucky. "
So, even though hundreds of years ago, all the Zhu family members followed Zhu Cong's wishes and raised his body for him, they still had their own selfish motives.
After the disciple from the side branch brought back the classics of "divination", he asked people of his own lineage to learn it, but for some reason, people of his own lineage seemed to have no talent and could not learn it at all.
But they had no intention of sharing the classics, but hid them privately.
Only the side branch knows about this matter.
They thought, maybe in the future generations, there would be a talented person who could learn these classics? In this way, their side branches do not have to rely on the direct line of the direct line, and can make decisions on their own.
But their plan obviously failed.
Without the guidance of professionals, it is difficult for them to successfully learn by themselves, and those "divination" books become just decorations.
Even so, they were reluctant to throw them away and kept them from generation to generation. Until the war a hundred years ago, they were afraid of damage, so they deposited these books in a very famous and reliable bank.
Since then, it has never been taken out again. After listening to Minister Wen Tao's words, Pei Anzhu felt speechless. He did not expect that there was such a tortuous story in it.
At the beginning, Shu Yunguan's seniors asked the disciples to take the classics and go away separately to find suitable people to pass them on. However, the seniors did not expect that the classics would become a means for some people to do evil.
For example, the Zhao family took away fortune-telling, the Zhou family took away physiognomy, and the Zhu family took away divination.
However, Pei Anzhu should also thank the branch of the Zhu family to some extent.
They deposited the classics in the bank to prevent them from being damaged or lost during the war. Among the Shu Yunguan classics she found, they were the most complete ones.
For example, Shanshu is a trophy collected by the Meng family during the war, and it was inevitably missed during the transportation process; Xiangshu is a waste product that Zhou Boping, the old man of the Zhou family, bought from the garbage dump when he was young. Not only was it missing, but it was also damaged.
Pei Anzhu shook his head, shook these thoughts out of his mind, and said:
“Thank you, Minister Wen, for telling me this. I will take Shu Yunguan’s classics with me. If there is anything else you need me to do, please contact me.”
After saying this, she put these classics into the storage ring with a wave of her hand.
This time, she did not hide the existence of the storage ring.
Because she had already exposed part of her strength when she fought against Fugugu——
For example, when she was setting up the formation, she kept taking out the talismans. It was clear that she didn’t have a backpack, and her pockets couldn’t hold so many talismans. So where did she take them out?
There is also the meteorite iron sword that she has stored in her Dantian. In order to hit the dead body with one blow, she used this magical weapon.
Many people saw that she conjured the knife out of thin air, and then disappeared out of thin air. I am afraid that the big shots in Central City had already guessed.
So, she no longer has to hide the storage ring.
Looking at Minister Wen Tao's stunned look, Pei Anzhu smiled, turned and left.
Many people from the Foreign Affairs Bureau also saw this scene. After Pei Anzhu left, they immediately rushed to Minister Wen Tao's side, chattering to each other:
“Did I read that right just now? She just waved her hand and with a swoosh, the thing was gone?”
"A few days ago in Mizong Town, when she was fighting with Fu Hua Gu, I thought I was hallucinating. She was just like today. She transformed into a knife and then slashed with it. The bones will not turn into pieces, but they will disappear with the final blow of the knife."
"Master Pei, who is she? Isn't she too powerful?"
“Don’t you all read novels?”
"What's the meaning?"
"In the novel about cultivating immortals, Master Pei should be an immortal, sent by God to save us. Without her, we would have been swallowed up by the monsters that suddenly appeared!"
Everyone:…
Although it is a bit outrageous, it also makes sense?
Speculations about Pei Anzhu's identity have spread in the Yitiao Bureau, and we have to admit that everyone's guesses are close to the truth.
As for Pei Anzhu herself, she went to Pingcheng and returned the "divination" classics to Shuyunguan. After making sure that the formations in the temple were intact, she returned to the Feng family.
She is going to use the spiritual energy from Fengjia Mountain to attack the gods.
