Parked next to the window lattice was a White Feather Albatross. When it saw Chu Yun, it immediately started chirping and flapping its wings.
"It's a letter from Shu Family Island." Chu Yun's eyes lit up and he recognized this White Feather Albatross.
He quickly walked up to the albatross, who opened his mouth and spit out a small, sealed bamboo tube.
In this world, there are some types of Demon Beast that are born with internal space. This space is generally not large and has different environments.
For example, White Feather Albatross has an elongated space in its body that lacks air and is very dry. People often use it to carry important letters. If White Feather Albatross is killed, the space in its body will also be destroyed. Therefore, the letters are very safe.
Another example is Gem Dolphin, which also has space inside the body. Not only is the space large, but the environment is mild and the air is abundant. This space can be used to hold and save people in critical moments.
In addition, there is Demon Beast Chancellor Pig, which is most commonly used by caravans. This kind of pig demon has a large space in its body and can carry a lot of goods. Moreover, the pig demon will eat anything and is not picky, so it is easy to feed.
Chu Yun opened the bamboo tube, took out the letter paper inside, unfolded it and saw that it was written by his father Shu Tianhao himself.
My son:
How is life in the academy? My adoptive father is fine and there is no need to worry...
There are not many words in the letter, and it is simple and concise. The first is to express the inquiry, and the second is to tell Chu Yun that Shu Family Island has opened many salt farms, produces large quantities of sea salt, and stores them in secret places.
Chu Yun was moved in his heart, and from this thin piece of paper, he could feel Shu Tianhao's concern. Shu Family Island's situation must be extremely bad, otherwise Shu Tianhao would not have opened up the salt farm on a large scale with his calm personality.
But even in such a critical situation, Shu Tianhao still did not disclose anything to Chu Yun, not wanting to put unnecessary pressure on the latter.
"In a short time, the Jade Sea Kelp epidemic will be out of control and a crisis will spread to the entire All-Star Archipelago. By that time, sea salt will be scarce and the price of salt will rise. Dad secretly produces a large amount of sea salt because he wants to take a gamble."
Chu Yun feels very heavy.
Shu Tianhao is making a desperate move. If this move is not supported by a strong ally, it may attract a group of enemies to attack. For the sake of profit, anything can be done. This is a troubled world!
But if it succeeds, making a lot of money is a small thing. Seizing a share of the sea salt market is the biggest gain. As long as we hold on to our advantages in the future, Shu Family Island will have a golden trading project from now on, and we will no longer have to rely on others to look at Ning Family Island's face.
"Let's talk to White-Browed Alchemist tomorrow." Even though he didn't have much hope in his heart, Chu Yun still wanted to try his best to give it a try.
The next day, after the alchemy class.
"This is impossible. Heavenly Song Academy is a neutral party and has never participated in All-Star Archipelago's internal fighting. I can't help you on this point." After hearing Chu Yun's request, White-Browed Alchemist frowned, but his tone of rejection was firm.
Although he is very optimistic about Chu Yun's qualifications and talents and wants to cultivate them vigorously, it does not mean that he will lose his position.
Chu Yun looked gloomy. Although he didn't have much hope before, he still felt disappointed after being rejected.
Heavenly Song Academy is the most ideal ally. Without its intervention, Shu Tianhao's desperate move this time will most likely fail and run aground.
White-Browed Alchemist sighed and said unbearably, "Let me tell you a story. In the past, Heavenly Song Academy had just been established, and almost all the forces in Green Mountain Island. All-Star Archipelago were eyeing them. No one wants foreign forces to invade their territory. After the first and second generations of Academy Master with strong personal strength passed away, the burden of maintaining Heavenly Song Academy was handed over to the third generation of Academy Master..."
White-Browed Alchemist narrated that the third generation Academy Master was stronger than alchemy, and his personal strength was not a deterrent. In order to safeguard the overall situation, he endured humiliation and shouldered heavy burdens, and his life was full of compromises and sacrifices. He was even alienated by his own people and considered a shame to the academy.
But it was precisely because of his efforts and cooperation that Heavenly Song Academy successfully passed through the dangerous period. It was accepted by all parties in All-Star Archipelago, and the creed of neutrality was implemented and trusted. It has been passed down to this day, and Heavenly Song Academy has achieved today's scale and prestige step by step.
After hearing this story, Chu Yun couldn't help but sigh. He knew that "neutrality" was the foundation of the Heavenly Song Academy's survival. Once it was lost, the academy would be unable to protect itself, and the situation it would face would be even more dangerous than Shu Family Island's...
Although many talents have been cultivated in the academy and have now become leaders of various forces. But in the face of immediate interests, the plot of the alma mater seems fragile.
Chu Yun endured the loss in her heart and finally stopped forcing it.
White-Browed Alchemist sighed and said, "Work hard, Chu Yun, you are very talented. In the future, if you become a strong person, Shu Family Island will definitely become stronger because of you. Next, I will teach you the special skills created by the third generation Academy Master - the superior alchemy handprint - Baduanjin!"
"Superior Alchemy Seal!" Chu Yun was immediately moved.
The value of the best alchemy hand seal is comparable to that of the exquisite Demon Beast egg. I didn't expect that the third generation Academy Master was so powerful that he actually created such a high level of alchemy hand seal. What a strange person!
Compared with the inferior basic alchemy seal, the content of the superior Ba Duan Jin alchemy seal alone is more than ten times more! There are eight basic hand seals, and the combination of complicated changes and complex and strange connections is even more dazzling and fascinating.
A full hour passed, and Chu Yun was still able to remember only one-eighth of it under his full concentration.
White-Browed Alchemist nodded slightly and said happily, "It's already very good. When I was learning alchemy, I was far worse than you. Your alchemy talent is very good, don't waste it. Every high-quality alchemy mudra has a special effect. Eight-Section Brocade Alchemy Hand Seals's special effect is encryption."
"Encryption?"
"Yes. This is a project that the third generation Academy Master has spent his whole life researching. A refined elixir is placed in the hands of an expert. After several tests, the detailed ingredients of the elixir can be determined. After further trials, the method of refining the elixir can be deduced. This is very detrimental to safeguarding the interests of alchemists. When you Eight-Section Brocade Alchemy Hand Seals, the surface of the refined elixir will be condensed with eight Daoist rhymes, and the Daoist rhymes are linked to form the elixir. If the elixir is broken, the elixir will be destroyed. You will no longer be afraid of others stealing the fruits of your labor."
White-Browed Alchemist's explanation was an eye-opener for Chu Yun.
"Come here again tomorrow and I will teach you the next mudra. This mudra is secret, please do not teach it to others at will." Before leaving, White-Browed Alchemist instructed.
"Chu Yun understands." Chu Yun promised, turned around and walked away. Suddenly he stopped again, looked back and thanked White-Browed Alchemist, "Boy, thank the alchemist for cultivating me!"
Although White-Browed Alchemist rejected his request, Chu Yun also understood it very well. Neutrality is the foundation of the Heavenly Song Academy, and he would not have agreed to it.
However, when White-Browed Alchemist taught himself such important alchemy mudras, he really cultivated himself and started a small business for himself.
Chu Yun is not an ignorant young man like Hundun, but has a mature heart. Thinking of his experiences in his previous life, his gratitude to White-Browed Alchemist comes from the bottom of his heart.
"Go back and practice hard." White-Browed Alchemist waved his hand, his face as cold and solemn as ever. It wasn't until Chu Yun left the school that the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly, forming an arc.
As soon as he walked out of the school door, Chu Yun saw Jin Bihan running over quickly, grabbed his hand, and dragged him out.
"Let's go! I have solved all the mysteries and found the inheritance of the third generation Academy Master!"
