Chapter 252 Definition
Greenshade Town, northern suburb of Tivian, Kingdom of Plit.
Dorothy was sitting on the balcony of No. 17 Greenshade Town, drinking coffee and admiring the sunset in the west, thinking about what she had just seen and heard in the distant continent.
"Wow, I never expected that. I was just worried about not having any spiritual energy, but the secret message came to me."
Dorothy was in a good mood and thought that her main focus now was to accumulate and advance her spirituality. She was worried that her spirituality was accumulating too slowly, but now she got it for free somehow. It felt great to get it for free no matter where and when.
'I didn't expect that the way to exorcise spirits in this new world is to rely on knowing poison. Knowing poison has a much greater impact on spirits than ordinary people, so knowing poison can also be used to exorcise spirits. I've learned that. I didn't expect knowing poison to be used in this way.'
Nodding, Dorothy continued to think that just now she not only linked to Capac's visual information, but also linked to the auditory information, so she could hear the conversation between Capac and the old shaman afterwards, and Dorothy knew the specific situation over there.
'And this kid Capac was actually accepted as a disciple by the shaman of his tribe? A ritual of exorcism turned into a ceremony of accepting a disciple, how dramatic... That shaman was really thoughtful.'
Dorothy then thought that she could guess what the old shaman was thinking. He accepted Capac as his apprentice, mainly to monitor Capac closely and the so-called "spirit" in his body. It was obvious that he regarded Akka as a powerful soul of unknown origin that was living in Capac.
'This old shaman is quite sensible. The power of unknown origin needs to be monitored and controlled at close range. It seems that he hopes to guide the unknown power in Capac to help the tribe... But this is just right. If Capac becomes a shaman apprentice, he will have more opportunities to come into contact with other shaman knowledge in the future, which is exactly what I want.'
Dorothy thought so, and then she turned her attention to the secret message from the New World that she had just recorded from Capac's eyes.
This secret biography carved on the dead tree did not have a name or author. The content written on it was the practice methods of the shamans of the indigenous tribes in the New World. The first article Dorothy saw should be an introductory chapter on shamanism.
The secret book on the dead tree contains a series of psychic skills, including how ordinary people can use objects and small rituals to find spirits, see spirits, communicate with spirits, judge whether spirits are good or evil, and what to pay attention to when contacting spirits.
If an ordinary person can master these skills, he will become an excellent medium. It is also explained above that the shaman's duty is to be the channel of communication between spirits and humans.
However, there is no written list of spiritual accumulation skills, which means that even if you master the skills above, you cannot become an extraordinary person. Dorothy thinks that the spiritual accumulation of shamans should be a more advanced chapter, and perhaps it can only be found in other places of practice.
After finishing the sorting out of the secret teachings she had just received, Dorothy immediately extracted them into spirituality. This time she obtained a total of 3 points of "Silence" and 2 points of "Inspiration", which made Dorothy's "Silence" spiritual inventory more or less increase. Now Dorothy's spirituality is like this.
6 cups, 7 stones, 6 shadows, 1 lamp, 7 silence, 9 enlightenment.
"Well, that's good. Now the 'Start' section is almost one-third full. If we collect more information step by step, it will be full again soon."
Looking at the 9 points of "Inspiration" she had accumulated, Dorothy murmured happily in her heart that the speed of spiritual accumulation was much faster than she thought.
"But... I seem to have too few 'lamps'. Although I have enough divination items in my storage, I need at least 10 'lamps' when I advance. I still have to find a way to collect them. But when I went to buy books from Beverly, the secret 'lamps' there were sold out. This is a bit embarrassing..."
Dorothy thought so, the secret teachings of "Lamp" are basically related to the Glowing Church. The Glowing Church has the habit of collecting all kinds of scriptures from everywhere, so there won't be too many secret teachings of "Lamp" on the market.
After all, the number of secret teachings is actually much smaller than that of stored items, and the price of each book is not sky-high. However, if others cannot use the secret teachings like Dorothy did, if others can extract spirituality from the secret teachings like Dorothy did, then the price of the secret teachings would definitely be driven up to almost the same level as "Initiate".
"It seems that the next time I communicate with Vanya, I will ask her if she can get some secret information from the church."
Dorothy murmured, and then she turned her eyes to the pile of books on the table. Those were the medical books she borrowed from the library. In the past few days, Dorothy relied on these books to make Capac a doctor.
"Although I put in a lot of effort, I finally got a reward in the end... Anyway, I read so many medical books, but the 'cup' of spirituality I got in the end was less than 1 point. The difference between secular knowledge and secret knowledge is so big..."
Looking at the medical books on the table, Dorothy said this. Although she believed that the value of many secular knowledge was not lower than that of secret knowledge, or even higher, the spiritual gap between them was really a world of difference. Dorothy had expected that reading so many medical books would give her some "cup", but in the end, there was nothing.
So much profound and profound knowledge that was created with great effort and could cure diseases and save lives is not worth 1 "cup", while the cannibalism techniques of the Afterbirth Cult are worth 3 or 4 "cups". Is there something wrong? Why is there such a big gap between secret knowledge and popular knowledge? For a moment, Dorothy had such thoughts in her mind.
'Think about it from another angle. Secret knowledge contains a lot of knowledge about drugs. Because it contains knowledge about drugs, secret knowledge cannot be widely disseminated, cannot be directly put in front of the public, and cannot be widely used in social activities and industrial practices, so this knowledge is "secret". And there is no large amount of knowledge about drugs that can be widely disseminated and can directly promote social development and civilization progress, so this knowledge is "vulgar".
'For example... these medical skills can be widely spread and benefit the public because they do not have much popular knowledge about identifying poisons. If they have a lot of secret knowledge about identifying poisons, they can only become secret knowledge in the hands of secret societies and only a very small number of people know and apply them.
'If you think in this way, the key point in defining vulgarity and secretiveness is drug identification. Having a lot of drug identification knowledge is secret knowledge, which builds the secret world, while not having a lot of drug identification knowledge creates and maintains a superficial vulgar society.
'Then the question is, what is the essence of drug recognition?'
