The advantage of hot pot lies in the word "casual". Whether it is meat or vegetables, you can put it in one pot according to your own preferences, and it also adds a sense of participation in "cooking", which increases your appetite.
The three guards naturally ate very comfortably, holding bowls and chopsticks in their hands. The cooking speed in the pot could not keep up with the speed of their eating.
But Shen Hao did not face the chaos of delicious food like before, but ate rather absent-mindedly.
Doesn't hot pot taste delicious? Of course not, the hot pot still tastes the same, but Shen Hao suddenly lost the mood to eat hot pot.
"Master Shen, don't you want to eat?" The guard didn't understand. Shen Hao is usually the one who eats the most. What's going on now? As soon as I sat down, I picked up a few chopsticks, but then I seemed to be feeling depressed and didn't know what to think.
"Do you think the breaths of different people will be very similar?" Shen Hao subconsciously asked the doubts in his heart after hearing this. He was still thinking about the five people he had seen in the alley outside "Eating No Losses" whose aura reminded him of déjà vu.
"Of course. For example, the auras of direct blood relatives are naturally similar. Or practicing the same technique for a long time will make different people's auras similar."
Shen Hao nodded. In fact, he knew this, and now he was just asking for confirmation. The doubts in his heart did not diminish at all, because he really couldn't think of where or when he had seen people with similar auras to those five people before.
Logically speaking, if Shen Hao was a monk, it shouldn't be so difficult to remember.
Naturally, the three guards could not help Shen Hao remember anything. After eating and drinking, Shen Hao paid the money and the group returned to the Jingxi Town Fushi Yamen.
Shen Hao also temporarily put aside his doubts, finished his homework for today, then closed his eyes and slept until dawn.
Now that his cultivation has reached the Yuan Dan realm, the necessary sleep time has been shortened to two hours, allowing Shen Hao to finally spare enough time to practice after being busy.
The most fortunate thing is that even though Shen Hao has entered the Yuan Dan realm, the effect of the black beast tattoo on his cultivation has not diminished at all.
Now it has been more than four and nearly five months since he broke through to the first level of the Yuan Dan Realm. He has once again approached the limit of the first level of the Yuan Dan Realm, and the breakthrough is very close.
After breakfast, Shen Hao left the station and went to the Commander's Yamen again. Today he did not go to the library again, but to the desk room of the Commander's Yamen. He will continue to investigate all the documentary information about Weak Shui.
And today is the third day of Pang Ban’s deadline.
The documents are more confidential and more systematic than the essays or classics in the library, and there will be no such thing as casual records or lack of evidence.
The warrant was given by Jiang Cheng and was verified by Pang Ban, so Shen Hao entered the document library without any obstruction. But he could only sit in the reference room and wait for the deacon in the case library to bring the things to him and read them under the supervision of the deacon, because according to the rules, unless there are special circumstances, no rubbings of anything in the case library are allowed. Go.
There are many documents related to Weak Shui, and Shen Hao narrowed the scope to those related to the Fu Lu Master in the Weak Water Basin.
Even though the scope was narrowed, there were still as many as seventeen copies of the documents delivered, each of which was three to four inches thick. This is the result of Shen Hao's time span. If there is no time span, it will definitely be more.
I picked up the top one and flipped through it quickly.
Speaking of Fu Lu Master, it is actually a huge system like Alchemist and Formation Master. Levels can also be defined by "craft", and are also restricted by factors such as cultivation and skills. The output is just as its name suggests, it is a talisman.
The status of the Talisman Master is far inferior to that of the Alchemist and the Formation Master. The reason is that the threshold for carving a Talisman is not high. Generally speaking, as long as the cultivation level reaches the basic requirements for carving a certain Talisman, and you know the carving method and practice repeatedly, you can draw the Talisman. come out. Moreover, compared to elixirs and formations, the cost of carving talismans is much lower. For ordinary monks, as long as they have reached the level of cultivation and have the conditions, they will learn some methods of carving talismans.
If there are too many people who know it, they will naturally not be taken seriously.
There are only some complex or uncommon or powerful talismans that are difficult for ordinary monks to describe. Therefore, generally those who can walk as Talisman Masters and become famous are high-level Talisman Masters.
The situation in the weak water basin is very special. Apart from the members of the sect, most of the monks gathered there are casual cultivators, and there are even many people who are both good and evil staying there.
According to the records in these documents, Shen Hao felt that it was not an exaggeration to describe the boundary of the weak water basin as the most chaotic area in the Jingji Dynasty.
Just among these relatively famous Talisman masters, there are quite a few unclean people.
Among monks, it is not said that only evil monks are "evil". The so-called "evil" mainly depends on your behavior and style. Is it considered "evil" if some people have been engaged in the business of killing people and selling goods for a long time? It definitely counts, even helping evil monks to do some despicable or inappropriate things in the Jingji Dynasty is also extremely bad.
Shen Hao quickly ignored the information that was useless to him, and soon he locked onto one of the documents. There was a record on it that made him breathe a sigh of relief.
The main target of this document is a talisman master named Shi Xiong. He is not a good person. On the contrary, he is the kind of person who wears the skin of a normal monk and does dirtier things than evil monks. Using his identity as a talisman master as a cover, he completed various commissions for evil monks in the Jingji Dynasty for more than ten years, and his cruelty was even worse than that of ordinary evil monks.
Such a man who could be said to have committed all kinds of evil was ambushed by the Xuanqing Guards twenty-seven years ago, and was secretly executed by Lingchi in prison a year later. According to the records on the document, this guy was scratched three hundred and sixty-one times before he died. It can be said that he died a miserable death.
These are not the most important. What caught Shen Hao's attention was that in the appendix of this person's confession, a person's name was mentioned, named Ye Jiao, who was said to be Shi Xiong's master. And this name is the same as the Talisman Master who could incorporate magic into ordinary words that Shen Hao saw in the previous essay.
According to Shi Xiong, Ye Jiao did not die young, but died of serious injuries while fighting with others. And its unique method does have the effect of "merging skills into words".
It's just that Shi Xiong's talent is average. He only knows the method of combining art with words but has no ability to learn it.
However, Shi Xiong's confession also said that Ye Jiao accepted not only him as a disciple, but a total of three disciples. Shi Xiong was the second disciple, with a senior brother at the top and a junior sister at the bottom.
