The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 229
"Finally finished!"

When Pei Wende recovered from the sea of ​​books, the sun had already slanted to the west, leaving only the afterglow of the setting sun shining on the bookstore through the window.

Contrary to Dr. Lu's imagination, Pei Wende read most of the medical books in the attic at a speed almost "turning the pages" after getting the other party's consent.

This aspect is certainly because Pei Wende's heart chakra has been opened, and he can memorize all the books he has read in a short period of time by going back to his memory and picking up things from the sea.

On the other hand, it is also because the books of this era are far from having as many words as the 21st century.

You must know that pen, ink and paper were very precious in ancient times. Even book lovers like Dr. Lu and Zhang Xiucai would not have more books in their homes than any student in later generations.

Especially after the full development of network information technology, novels, news, bulletins, essays and other different channels of information are innumerable, and the requirements for speed reading are increasing day by day.

To use a sentence that Pei Wende has heard, it is the habit of modern books to use more than 80.00% of the text to explain the remaining 20.00% of the content.

However, the ancient society was completely different. Due to the preciousness of pen, ink and paper, those who strive to write books must summarize the most content in the shortest sentences.

This is why there are various "interpretive" books that explain the views and words of the predecessors.

To put it more simply, taking these medical books that Pei Wende browsed, the most of them are no more than [-] to [-] words. When encountering the kind of books with illustrations and illustrations, the fewest words may even be only a few hundred or even a thousand words.

Books with tens of thousands of words, in the era of Internet literature in later generations, are only half an hour or even less for a normal reader to read.

Of course, reading so quickly raises another question.

Because these medical books are too concise and there are too few related explanations, Wen Wende spends much more on "understanding" than "reading".

Thanks to Pei Wende's enlightenment, his comprehension is far higher than that of normal people, so he can understand the content of these medical books relatively quickly.

Even so, Wen Wende didn't think that he could learn what ordinary people have learned for more than ten years in just one day.

Therefore, most of the time, Wen Wende swallowed the content of all the books first, and planned to learn and understand the specific content of the book slowly in the future.

In addition, don't look at Doctor Lu's collection of books here is quite a lot.

However, excluding those controversial or repetitive books, there is actually not much content that Pei Wende can really learn.

Therefore, before the sun was about to set, Pei Wende had already "written down" what he wanted, and the rest was to slowly understand the true meaning.

"If I had this ability before, I wouldn't have passed the college entrance examination easily."

After habitually complaining to himself, Wen Wende put down the last medical book in his hand.

It's not that Pei Wende has read all the medical books in the attic, but that it's almost dusk and it's time to go back.

Anyway, a large part of the remaining books are repetitive explanations, and Wen Wende probably understood some of them through the "bookmarks" that Dr. Lu put in the books.

What's more, since Dr. Lu allowed himself to go into the attic to search for information this time, there will naturally be opportunities for those next time, so there is no need to rush for a while.

"gone!"

Thinking in this way, Pei Wende waved to Xiaoqing, who had been awake for a long time and was entrenched somewhere just like a human being, reading a book seriously.

"hiss……"

Displeased, Xiaoqing spit out the snake letter, and Xiaoqing, who had only turned half of the page, glanced at Pei Wende impatiently, but finally gave up the idea of ​​continuing to read the book.

Because for Xiaoqing, who has just been able to read for a short time, she can barely recognize these characters one by one separately, but once they are combined together, she is completely confused.

For monsters like Xiaoqing, understanding human characters is only the first step in the long march, and how to correctly understand the meaning of the book is a necessary step to continue practicing.

After all, compared to scattered and fragmented monsters, human beings who are born with spiritual wisdom and many practitioners have many practice books, which are usually the shortcut to the road to longevity.

Even for this, Xiaoqing has to slowly learn human characters and be familiar with human classics.

"Why don't you pretend now?"

Squatting in front of Xiaoqing and making fun of it, Pei Wende found that this guy has become more and more arrogant since he realized that the other party can speak people's words, and now he doesn't even bother to pretend in front of himself.

One must know that before this, Wen Wende didn't know that Xiaoqing could read books.

Especially judging from the fact that the other party didn't turn a page for a long time, she obviously wasn't flipping randomly.

"When did you learn to read? Was it when I was copying scriptures?"

After thinking about it, Pei Wende felt that except for the time when he was punished by the old monk Lingyou to copy books in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, Xiaoqing should have no other opportunities to contact and learn human characters.

"hiss……"

He was too lazy to talk to Pei Wende, let alone talk nonsense with this guy.

Xiaoqing followed the opponent's arm and slipped into his sleeve with ease, then silently closed her eyes.

Rather than bickering with Pei Wende, Xiaoqing just wanted to quickly digest the knowledge about acupuncture points in the human body that she had just read.

The acupoints and qi channels of Huapi only let Xiaoqing know their approximate locations, but she has to figure out their specific functions and related connections.

Xiaoqing originally thought that she would have to be stuck on this step for several years, or even decades, before she could figure out the mysteries of the human body's acupuncture points and complete the construction of the Zhoutian Great Circulatory System.

But after reading these records in medical books on the human body, Xiaoqing felt that she already had the foundation to connect the nine innate orifices to form the great cycle.

It might be years, it might be months, it might even be days...

Xiaoqing is now only one step away from transforming into a form, and it depends on when she has the opportunity to successfully transform her acquired body into her innate body.

However, before the real transformation, Xiaoqing still has the most important problem to be solved-the transformation calamity, or the forty-nine heaven calamity.

That is the last catastrophe for practitioners before they get rid of their mortal bodies. If they succeed, they will live forever, and if they fail, they will be turned into ashes.

The "Four Nine Heavens Tribulation" is essentially the product of the highly concentrated essence, energy, and spirit of the practitioners. It is a feedback and riot about the vitality of the world when they expose their own energy to the outside.

In other words, the greater the essence, energy, and spirit of the person who survives the catastrophe, the more difficult it will be to survive the catastrophe.

Unfortunately, even though Xiaoqing was trying her best to control her body growth, the body length of her true self had reached an almost exaggerated level.

This means that Xiaoqing's Transformation Tribulation also surpasses ordinary monsters, and may not even be weaker than the scourge of the birth of a coffin.

"Xiaoqing?"

Keenly aware of Xiaoqing's fleeting restlessness, Pei Wende, who didn't know that the other party was about to transform, called out tentatively, but only a moment of silence responded to him.
