Shen Hao took out four puzzle pieces in one go and laid them out in a row on the coffee table in front of him.
The woman who called herself Ba Yin glanced at the puzzle pieces on the coffee table and said with a half-smile, "Does Mr. Shen only have these four pieces? It doesn't seem to be complete, right?"
"Hahaha, I'm sorry, the storage bag is too small, and the things I can carry are limited. Just these four pieces. I wonder if they can catch the eyes of Lord Ba Yin?"
Ba Yin knew that Shen Hao was lying because how old was Jigsaw? No matter how tight the storage bag was, there was no way it could only hold these four pieces, and it didn't contain the piece she had fought for when she and Shen Haoqi started arguing.
In fact, Shen Hao was using words to deal with it as Ba Yin thought, or to leave room for himself. Of course he had not just four puzzle pieces in his hand, but six, and they were all in his storage bag.
Ba Yin picked up a piece casually.
Shen Hao noticed that it was the first puzzle piece he got, and it was the piece that marked the geographical location of Wusi City.
"Master Shen, do you know why I was able to find the City of Fusi even though this puzzle piece with the general direction is clearly in your hand? And it was many, many years earlier than you."
Shen Hao: "..." Although he was speechless, he acquiesced in the guess made by the other party. He had indeed thought about it, so he waited for the other party's next words.
Ba Yin did not give the answer immediately, but grabbed the puzzle piece, and then stirred it hard with both hands. When the puzzle piece was broken, it was pulled out by his hands to form a special technique that condensed in the air. After a moment, you can see The scattered fragments seemed to be squeezed, and a trace of something like grease was produced, and finally they were gathered together to be about the size of a little finger, white with a little scarlet.
"Is this?" Shen Hao was not angry because the other party destroyed a piece of his puzzle without saying a word, but was surprised. He never knew that something he had held in his hands for so long could actually change like this.
What is that grease-like thing? It is definitely not something that exists in Yin Yuli itself. It should be squeezed out by the other party using special techniques to target the puzzle.
"This is blood. The lines and dots on the puzzle are drawn with this kind of thing. So you'd better not throw away the jade I gave you as a gift. It can also squeeze out this kind of "blood" Come on, it's very useful." As she spoke, Ba Yin introduced the bead of "blood" she called hovering in her palm into a small bottle and collected it.
"Isn't it just for drawing lines and dots?"
"Of course. In addition to being used for writing and drawing, this "blood" is also an important item for assembling puzzle pieces. This is why all recurring puzzle pieces are still valuable to collect. No one knows how many of these will be needed in the end. It's enough to plant "blood", so every piece is precious." Ba Yin put away the jade bottle and mentioned two key words.
"Repeat? Mr. Ba Yin, do you mean that these puzzle pieces will appear repeatedly, and the piece you just destroyed is the one you have already obtained?"
Ba Yin nodded and said: "Yes. You should have discovered something. You know that the appearance of puzzles is related to the special places that pop up from time to time in various places. Sometimes there are only one or two pieces, sometimes hundreds of pieces. Some are collected by others. But most of them are put up for auction. After a long time, you will find that most of these puzzles are repeated and can only be used to squeeze "blood" but not to fill the gaps."
"So it means that Mr. Ba Yin has collected all the puzzle pieces?"
"No. Otherwise I wouldn't meet you here."
Shen Hao nodded, put away the smile on his face, and said seriously: "Since the puzzle piece in your hands is missing, it seems that I may be able to help, right? Then you should tell the truth, maybe things will be resolved There may be new breakthroughs.”
After a moment of silence, Ba Yin said: "My clan has always been outside the world of cultivation. It is not considered a martial arts cultivation, nor a physical cultivation. However, we can use some of the two methods smoothly. We call ourselves "blood cultivation" ". It's not the kind of evil monks you think of who use external energy and blood to practice. It's about cultivating blood, cultivating my clan's own blood."
He had heard of evil cultivators, body cultivators, music cultivators, martial arts cultivators, and sword cultivators, but this was the first time he heard of blood cultivator Shen Hao. As Ba Yin said, his first reaction was "evil monk". After all, when "blood" is mentioned, he feels that it is more evil and not a serious way of practice. But Ba Yin's subsequent explanation surprised him even more.
Bloodline? Can this thing be used for practice?
He was curious but Shen Hao didn't ask, so he just listened to Ba Yin continue talking.
"The bloodline of my clan can be traced back to a great catastrophe thousands of years ago. It was during that catastrophe that my clan obtained this heaven-defying bloodline, and at the same time shouldered the heavy responsibility of rectifying the universe."
If someone else had said these words, Shen Hao would have spitted it out. Isn't this the opening gimmick of ordinary mythological novels? You actually used it to deceive people. Do you want to bully honest people? Or do you think others are ignorant and stupid?
But it was Ba Yin who spoke, and there was a saying about "blood repair" as a foreshadowing. Although Shen Hao felt that the other party's statement was very unreliable, he did not dare to take it as a joke, nor did he dare to be hasty. Decide whether what the other person says is true or false.
In addition, the "catastrophe thousands of years ago" mentioned by Ba Yin also touched Shen Hao's heart. The first thing that came to his mind was the "Evil Beast Troubled World" that he had just researched and figured out not long ago.
As long as the word "evil beast" was mentioned, Shen Hao couldn't help but cheer up and listen carefully.
Ba Yin didn't know what Shen Hao was thinking at this time. She had her own plan. She wanted to get the remaining puzzle pieces in Shen Hao's hands. She even used Shen Hao's channels to continue to collect other puzzle pieces and give some information. Nothing is off limits. As for suffering a loss or being turned away from others, Ba Yin naturally thought about it very clearly. She has a trump card that makes her sure that she will be the winner in the end.
"The bloodline came suddenly. The ancestors accepted the enlightenment and understood the source of the catastrophe in the world." After a pause, Ba Yin said with a smile: "Does Lord Shen know what that catastrophe is?"
"If the great catastrophe that Mr. Ba Yin is talking about refers to the "evil beast chaos" during the Jing Dynasty thousands of years ago, I still know something about it."
"Yes, it was the "Evil Beast Troubled Times". That catastrophe almost forced all living beings in the world to the brink of survival. It was actually the biggest crisis since the beginning of wisdom. It is ridiculous that in the history of such a great catastrophe, the world has been overwhelmed by the sect and the old Jing Dynasty. The royal family has been blinded and deceived for thousands of years, and now only a few people still know.
Master Shen's knowledge may be limited, and it should stop abruptly after "Three Heroes Save the World", right?
Mr. Shen, would you like to hear about the actual impact of this catastrophe, as well as the various blank doubts and experiences in it? "
