Chapter 55: The Amulet
"Big Lian, when did you come back?"
"Just came back. ”
"What's this carrying?"
"Gotta go again. ”
"Yo, are you finally going to move out with your sister-in-law?"
"No, I'm not going to read it. Let's go home and inherit the family business. ”
“...... is worthy of being a cheap boss. ”
"I've bothered you to take care of this little guinea pig before, and you can find me for anything in the future. ”
"What's polite, you also gave money, big guy. ”
“...... Let's not talk about it, let's get together next time, let's go first. ”
"Okay, Lian Boss, you go slowly......"
......
In the corridor, I met a roommate who came back from the library, and after exchanging a few words, Lian Ge, who was carrying a book and a mouse cage, did not stay any longer, and stepped straight out of the dormitory building.
On the side, Gu Xiaoying naturally followed.
Outside the dormitory.
After glancing at the dormitory building again, Lian Ge turned around and looked at Gu Xiaoying,
"I'll take you to the classroom first. ”
"Why don't you find a place to put things away first?" Gu Xiaoying glanced at the bag that Singer Lian was carrying, containing several tomes,
"No, I don't. Lian Ge glanced down along the line of sight,
Although this bag is a few dozen catties, his physique is really not felt in his hand after being nourished and strengthened by mana.
"Let's go. ”
Hearing this, Gu Xiaoying didn't say anything more, just walked side by side and followed Lian Ge towards the classroom.
......
All the way, passing the more familiar school road,
Lian Ge, who was carrying things, naturally attracted the attention of many people, but no one made too much fuss, basically glanced at it, and then withdrew his gaze and continued to be busy with his own affairs.
Send Gu Xiaoying to the door of the classroom,
Listening to the voice of the old professor in the classroom, Lian Ge turned his head to look at Gu Xiaoying,
"Xiaoying, you seem to be late. ”
"Hmm...... Shhh
Immediately afterwards, Gu Xiaoying gestured with her gestures and eyes, saying that she was going to enter the classroom.
Lian Ge smiled slightly, nodded, and then looked at Gu Xiaoying like a thief, tiptoeing in through the back door,
“...... The student who just came in from outside the classroom, it's up to you to answer this question. The old professor was deaf and clear-sighted, turned around and said,
"And outside the classroom, the student who is carrying things, come, you can answer too. ”
Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled slightly,
didn't refuse, and walked a few more steps into the classroom,
"This question mainly concerns ......"
Glancing at what was being said on the screen, Lian Ge talked eloquently and answered easily.
“...... Alright," said the old professor five minutes later, waving his hand, and said angrily,
"Where to go, what are the graduate students doing here? ”
Hearing this, Lian Ge didn't explain, smiled slightly, and after signaling to Gu Xiaoying, he turned around and left.
“...... Come, let's move on to ......"
Listening to the sound of lectures gradually moving away behind him, Lian Ge carried a book and a guinea pig, stepped straight out of the teaching building, and walked towards the outside of the school.
All the way through the roads on campus again,
Now that he was alone, the alienation from his surroundings became stronger than before.
Outside the school gate, watching people coming in and out from time to time,
Lian Ge shook his head with a smile,
As Gu Xiaoying said just now, although the graduation assessment has not yet been completed, he is no longer a medical student.
Turning around, without stopping any longer, Lian Ge left the school directly.
......
Time passes, and after a moment,
"Click...... Bang. ”
"Knock ......"
Returning to Gu Xiaoying's house, putting down the stack of books and the cage containing the guinea pig, and glancing at the somewhat quiet house, Lian Ge reached out and opened the bag containing the books,
"Whoa......
The zipper opened in response, and Lian Ge took out a pile of yellow paper, a pen, two taels of cinnabar, an ordinary inkstone and an ink block that came with buying an inkstone.
He bought it on the street behind the funeral goods store at Union Hospital.
After putting these things down on the coffee table in the living room in turn, Lian Ge picked up the two taels of cinnabar wrapped in paper, unpacked it, and poured about two or three coins on the inkstone.
Wrapping the remaining cinnabar at random and throwing it aside, Lian Ge picked up the inkstone, walked into the kitchen, and took some water from the inkstone under the faucet.
After tightening the faucet, Lian Ge took the inkstone containing cinnabar and water, and walked back to the coffee table in the living room again.
"Boom. ”
The sound of the collision between the inkstone and the glass coffee table sounded slightly, and after putting the inkstone down, Lian Ge picked up the attached ink block, mixed it with water and cinnabar, and grinded it in the inkstone.
After a few moments,
Seeing that the ink mixed with cinnabar was basically the same, Lian Ge put down the ink and lifted the pen.
He was going to take advantage of this moment to make the amulets that he had promised to give his teacher and his wife.
Holding the pen, Lian Ge looked at the yellow paper that had been cut, his eyes were slightly empty, and the movements in his hands were slightly paused.
While concentrating and carrying the mana in his body, he was also thinking about what kind of talisman to draw.
After thinking for a moment, Lian Ge picked up the pen and dipped it in ink mixed with cinnabar, driving the mana to condense and the tip of the pen, and began to sketch and depict it on the paper.
"Let's just 'amulet'"
Lian Ge's eyes were half-empty, and his hand movements were slow and steady.
Under the eye of the sky, above the talisman seal, the place where the brushstrokes are crossed is full of inspiration.
"......"
At the same time as Lian Ge was drawing the incantation, a cluster of fire suddenly burst out of the rune paper, burning the unfinished rune seal directly.
Subsequently, the first attempt to make a 'talisman' failed.
"It seems that the success rate is not high......"
Slightly moving his hand, Lian Ge, who avoided the flames, whispered to himself, and at the same time reflected on the problem in the process of making talismans just now,
"The control of mana is still not fine enough, too rough...... At the same time, this yellow table paper itself has no spirituality, and its ability to carry mana is not strong. ”
Shaking his head, Lian Ge pulled a piece of yellow paper from the side again and began to try again.
......
Time passes slowly,
From morning to noon,
The sun outside the house climbed into the sky and began to set in the west.
Inside the house, the runic paper that had been burned to ashes and the discarded yellow paper with only part of the incantation written on it gradually increased, piling up on the edge of the coffee table.
Finally, after Lian Ge almost exhausted the mana in his body, used up the cinnabar yellow paper, and failed dozens of times.
Four amulet seals have been crafted.
......
In the living room, Lian Ge put down the brush he was holding, looked at the somewhat messy coffee table and the ground, and refocused his attention on the four talisman seals spread out side by side on the coffee table.
Under the eyes of the sky, on the four rune seals, the spiritual light continued to flow along the runes, and it seemed to be circulating endlessly.
And even if you don't look at it with the eyes of heaven, these four runes have also undergone some miraculous changes.
Stretch out your hand and touch it, and you will find that even on the rune seal that Lian Ge finally made, the spell on it seems to be engraved on the rune paper, with a bulge, but there will be no ink on the hand.
Lian Ge looked at the four talismans, smiled, and took them up at random,
One hand pinched the ends of the rune paper and tore it hard, but the rune paper still did not respond.
It is obviously made of thin yellow table paper, but at this moment, the rune paper that carries the talisman seal has a toughness stronger than cloth.
With a smile on his face, Lian Ge picked up the four talismans.
Standing up, folding the four talismans a few times at random, and putting them in his pocket, Lian Ge refocused his gaze on the somewhat messy living room,
The burning ashes of the rune paper, the discarded rune paper, the ink droplets dripping on the coffee table and the floor, and the surrounding air, the smell of choking smoke overflowed......
"It seems...... It's busy. ”
