Chapter 184: Chapter 47 Qimen Dunjia[Unnamed Taoist Scripture: Volume Two, Human Dao Chapter (Knowledgeable Book)] Readable Use: Conduct a reading comprehension once, after which you might permanently increase your comprehension by 2 points and gain an additional talent. (Uses 1/1). Item Introduction: One of the volumes of the Unnamed Taoist Scripture, it contains some obscure and difficult-to-understand texts. Reading it might lead you to profound insights. Wow! It actually turned into a secret book! Xiao Jie looked at the scroll in his bag, both shocked and pleased. Books that could increase comprehension were quite expensive—a single book often cost hundreds of taels of silver and were rarely sold. Not to mention, this thing even comes with a bonus talent. Players only get 3 talents upon reaching level 10, and only nine talents by level 30. A freely given talent might even be more valuable than a powerful spell. This book might actually be worth millions! Xiao Jie’s heart pounded wildly, thinking that although this trip had been risky, the reward was truly enormous. Speaking of which, the Unnamed Taoist Scripture altogether includes the Heavenly Dao, Earthly Dao, and Human Dao. The True Word Chapter increases comprehension by +1, the Human Dao Chapter by +2—does that mean the Earth Dao Chapter increases it by +3, and the Heavenly Dao Chapter by +4? If it were really so, that would be amazing. I wonder if there is anything beyond the Heavenly Dao Chapter. Xiao Jie couldn’t wait and immediately opened the book to start reading. However, he was somewhat baffled as soon as he looked at it; he couldn’t understand the content at all. When he had read the True Word Chapter initially, it was just a bit difficult to understand. Although it was similarly formatted like classical text, it was still closer to ancient vernacular. But this Human Dao Chapter, with its obscure phrases and many words Xiao Jie had never even seen before, left him completely bewildered after reading it, unable to grasp its meaning. What should I do now? Do I need to study ancient texts first? Or should I find someone to help take a look? After all, the important things are the 2 points of comprehension and the bonus talent ability, not so much what the content of the book says. Although I don’t understand much, it’s probably just some metaphysical philosophical theories. Such materials are plenty in bookstores and aren’t of much value. If it were a manual of Immortal Techniques or something, it would be more precious; such theoretical knowledge doesn’t matter much. Since there was still plenty of time, Xiao Jie first took a notebook, copied the content of the Unnamed Taoist Scripture Human Dao Chapter, took photos with his phone, and then exited the game. He opened QQ and directly accessed the game players’ group. If he was looking for help, naturally, he would start consulting people from the players’ group first; higher-level players all stack comprehension, maybe someone among them had also seen the Taoist Scriptures in the game. Hidden Moon Following Wind: Please, does anyone know how to translate the Taoist Scriptures? The ones that improve comprehension. Liu Xingyu: Whoa, did you get your hands on the Taoist Scriptures? Impressive. Zhu Youlei: Don’t bother interpreting, just sell it for money. A single script can fetch tens to hundreds of taels of silver, better use the money to buy secret books. An Ran: What kind of Taoist Scripture? The +1 comprehension or the +2 comprehension? There’s a big difference in price, don’t sell it cheaply. Hidden Moon Following Wind: The +2 comprehension one. I might read it myself, so I’m looking for help to translate the classical text, which is a bit hard to understand. Wentian Wuji: Could I take a look? Northern Spear King: Whoa, Master’s feeling cultured today to reveal his presence. Wentian Wuji: Heh, I’m actually online quite often; I just don’t like to join your chats much. However, I am quite interested in the Taoist Scriptures. Sui Feng, to be honest, I have some knowledge of ancient culture and am quite interested in this game’s books that increase comprehension. If you can send me the original text, I might help you translate it. And if you need, I could even pay you for the information, what do you think? Xiao Jie thought that sounded great, but he had no intention of accepting the money. First of all, it wouldn’t be much; taking it wouldn’t significantly help his current situation. Moreover, the person had helped him in the past, introducing him to the merfolk’s intelligence, so there was no need to take this bit of advantage. Better to form a good relationship. If he needed help in the future, others would have to think twice before refusing. After all, isn’t that what interpersonal relations are all about? Although this relationship might not be significant, a favor is still a favor. Hidden Moon Following Wind: Haha, that would be really great. Don’t worry about the information fee. I’d be grateful if you could help me translate it. We are all friends here; talking about money is too formal. Master, please add my WeChat, and I’ll send you the photos. Soon, the two of them added each other on WeChat, and Xiao Jie, without holding anything back, sent the photos directly. Hidden Moon Following Wind: How is it going, Master? How long will it take to translate? Wentian Wuji: Let me check. A few minutes later— Wentian Wuji: I can translate it by tonight; this Taoist Scripture is quite deep. The explanation might be a bit difficult; how about you come over to my place, and I’ll explain it to you in person? Xiao Jie was somewhat hesitant about meeting another player offline. But after some thought, there shouldn’t be a problem. With player management laws in place, there shouldn’t be any danger. Moreover, being in a law-abiding society in Da Hua Country, unless the other party was powerful enough to ignore the law, they probably wouldn’t dare to make a move. He had no reason to kill himself, anyway. Although their interactions were limited, he felt that the players in this group were all pretty decent. Of course, the most important thing was—this was a level 36 boss. If he could meet him in real life, it might come in handy if he encountered any danger in the game. Hidden Moon Following Wind: Alright, where do you live? I’ll head over now. The other party sent over an address, Xiao Jie looked and, wow, it was Golden Jade Bay. He had heard of this place, a definite luxury residential area where a house could easily cost tens of millions. It seemed that Wentian Wuji was not only a master player but also a rich tycoon. But come to think of it, at level 36 and part of the Magic System, making money in real life must be incredibly simple for him. Half an hour later, Xiao Jie arrived at the entrance of Golden Jade Bay. Entry to the residential area required a reservation, but fortunately, Wentian Wuji had arranged things, allowing him a successful entry. The luxury residential area was different, filled with standalone villas complete with their own lawns and gardens. Following the security guard’s directions, he arrived at his destination, a quite impressive three-layer mansion. Compared to his own suburban neighborhood, the difference was huge. There was a rather large yard outside the mansion, but oddly enough, there were many piles of rocks scattered about, some here, some there, looking like an excavation site. Xiao Jie walked past these piles of stones to the front door. Bang bang bang! He knocked on the door. Yet the door opened silently by itself. Walking into the foyer, Xiao Jie was startled by the scene before him. The spacious hall was filled with furniture, tables, chairs, and vases all randomly yet subtly arranged in some special pattern. Some areas even had triangular flags with talismans drawn on them, which all looked rather mystical. "Don’t worry, the Formation has already been deactivated. Just come up." A somewhat tired voice came from upstairs, Xiao Jie looked up and saw a man around twenty-seven or twenty-eight waving at him from the second floor. "Master, what’s all this about?" As Xiao Jie stepped over the furniture toward the stairs, he asked. "Sorry, I recently made an enemy. All these are just precautions." As he spoke, Xiao Jie suddenly felt a chill behind him, and turning around, saw no sign of the living room, but instead a mist-shrouded sea of clouds, with mountains jutting out, towering amid them, peaks steep, winds howling... Xiao Jie jumped in fright, "Holy shit, what’s happening?" "Just a mere Illusion Array, don’t worry about it." Could this be the legendary Qi Men Dun Jia? Xiao Jie suddenly remembered Wentian Wuji’s Profession—Qi Men Master. He hadn’t expected him to be so incredible. "Is this Illusion Technique? Or does it actually have physical collisions?" "Why not try it and see?" Xiao Jie reached his hand into the mist, and when he pulled it back, it felt damp. "There really is moisture? How does that work?" "Heh, don’t fret over it. Honestly, I don’t understand it either. It’s all skills learned from the game. Oh, by the way, I translated that Taoist Scripture you mentioned, and I must say, it has benefited me greatly. Oh right, my name is Chen Tianwen." "Xiao Jie." The two shook hands, then proceeded to the second-floor study, which was filled with various books. On the desk was a photocopy and a pile of annotated draft papers. Chen Tianwen picked up the papers, hesitated for a moment, then set them back down. "The content of this Taoist Scripture is a bit complex and profound, I’d better explain it to you directly." "Sure, I’m all ears." Chen Tianwen first paced back and forth, then began to explain. "The Nameless Dao Scripture, in a nutshell, can be described with a single word—Dao. The so-called Dao, as explained in the book, is essentially— the underlying logic of all things. This book mentions three Daos: the Heavenly Dao, the Earth Dao, and the Human Dao. The Heavenly Dao refers to the universe’s ultimate laws. The Earth Dao refers to the true nature of the world. And the Human Dao refers to the essence of human society. And this Human Dao Chapter talks about the Dao of human beings, the underlying logic of human society—can you keep up?" Xiao Jie thought to himself, you’re pretty considerate. "Of course, continue." —————————— PS: The next Chapter will be quite mundane, mostly theoretical explanations about the Human Dao Chapter. If you don’t like to read that, feel free to skip it; it won’t affect the understanding of the following content.
