Chapter 15: Introduction to Magic
The life in the palace is indeed luxurious enough, with more than a dozen dishes for dinner, and four or five staple foods, and only Lin Qian and Elena are the only two people who eat. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Elena ate her meal slowly, without saying a word, very much according to the rules of a large family. And Lin Qian is different, the food in this world is all unseen, and the taste is very delicious, even the "squid" like things he ate before are extremely delicious, so Lin Qian almost ate every dish in a hurry, tasted a bite of each staple food, and compared which one is most suitable for his taste. Then Lin Qian focused on that dish, and specifically asked Elena the name of that dish.
"This is a fibrous root, dug from a very high mountain. In order to keep it fresh and not freeze bad, the water mage casts a spell to control the temperature during transportation, and then transports it day and night. ”
"Can I just eat this dish in the future?" Lin Qian felt that there was too much food and waste, he never felt that he would get tired of eating such a delicious thing every day.
"Okay, you eat this, I'll eat the rest. Elena didn't understand what Lin Qian meant, she had been like this since she was a child, and she felt that it was normal to have so many dishes at a meal.
"Forget it, it's better to be a little more nutritious. Lin Qian didn't think that he had to ask others to be equally economical, since this was the case, it was better to let go a little.
Lin Qian returned to his room after eating and began to study the two books that Elena had given him: "The Basics of Magic" and "The Encyclopedia of Dark Magic".
In the end, Lin Qian didn't bother to change the magic department, anyway, he just learned to play, and he didn't want to die in five years.
"The Basics of Magic", as the name suggests, is a book to help beginners understand magic, a very thin book, but a very detailed explanation of magic.
Its title page has only one sentence: Demons use the power of all things to strengthen themselves, and the law changes the rules of the world to self-discipline. - The God of Creation
Coincidentally, the word "magic" in this world is also composed of two characters, which is similar to the meaning of Chinese.
What does this mean? Or did the creator god say? There is still a creator god in this world? It won't just be a religious figure? Lin Qian continued to scroll down with doubts.
Chapter 1: Meditation
Magic, that is, the power of meditation. Meditation requires the mind to have no thoughts, no two things, no three words, no nose and four smells, no five sounds in the ears, six senses, seven holes, and eight directions, and where the mind goes, there are nine shadows, or ten evils, or a hundred steps, or a thousand miles. Those who are born to think well must travel for nine days, and those who are not good will not go out of the threshold for three days. Thinking has a method: meditating, cross-legged, laying hands, straightening the back, closing the eyes, thinking and thinking: from oneself, to others, to life, to the earth, and to the heavens......
The language of the Blue Continent is also divided into spoken and written, and the original vernacular-like language has become an obscure ancient language in books. Fortunately, Lin Qian barely understood, in the final analysis, it means: magic is what he came up with. But the book also tells the reader how to think, how to think, and also points out the importance of talent.
Meditation is only the first step in learning magic, but it is nothing more than a way to broaden your mental power. Mental power is the source of magic, and the stronger the mental power, the greater the power of magic. Mental power is insufficient, and can only release some low-level magic. Only when the mental power reaches the standard required for high-level magic can it be able to perform high-level magic.
Of course, it is not possible to directly divide the strength of the two by spiritual power. Some magicians have strong mental power, but high-level magic can only release some low-level magic if they don't learn it, which involves another measure of magic - comprehension. This is described in detail in Chapter 2 of the Basics of Magic.
Enlightenment, the capital of learning magic. The power of the wind, the cold of touching the water, the fierceness of the fire, the secret of the earth, the spirit of gathering light, the forest of darkness, and the flower of controlling summoning are all the power of comprehension. Enlightenment is different from people, from time to time, and because of the system, those who are good at understanding can learn without a teacher, and those who are not good can be helpless......
To put it bluntly, comprehension is the perception of magic in various departments, and different people have different magical perceptions of different departments, even if they are gifted like Elena, they are not all seven magic comprehensions. Most people have a stronger sense of two or three of them, and will choose one or more of them to study according to their preferences.
Mental power and comprehension are the basis for learning all levels of magic, plus some objective factors such as the teacher's teaching ability, plus repeated practice to finally master a spell.
No wonder the Academy of Magic does not recruit many students every year, they are all merit-based, and without the talent for meditation and the comprehension of a certain department of magic, the academy will not accept them.
The remaining chapters are devoted to some of the dos and don'ts of learning magic and an overview of the various types of magic. Lin Qian roughly flipped through it and dropped it, the pure text was too boring, and it might not be able to be used, so Lin Qian simply tried how to meditate.
There's something incomprehensible about meditation, who doesn't have imagination? Who doesn't think wildly? But magical meditation requires a rational imagination, an imagination that you can travel for nine days and still know what you're supposed to do.
According to the requirements of the book, Lin Qian started with himself, thinking of all kinds of people in the world, including good people, bad people, and more complex personalities; and then Lin Qian thought of all the creatures in the world, people, animals, plants, etc., each of them playing their own roles, making the whole world full of color; where do the creatures in this world come from? They are all nurtured by the earth, and the arms of Mother Earth are always open to them, with the thick earth under their feet and a blue sky overhead, which is characterized by its sometimes sunny and sometimes cloudy, unpredictable nature......
"Brother Lin, get up. ”
"Huh?" Lin Qian heard Elena's voice early in the morning, thinking back to last night's meditation, and found that he didn't know when he was already lying on the bed, with a quilt on his body, and only a close-fitting shirt on his clothes.
Elena pushed the door in directly, saw Lin Qian sitting on the bed in a daze, and asked with a smile, "How is it? Brother Lin slept well last night?"
"Okay......" Lin Qian didn't know how to ask, after all, he forgot about last night, and he only knew that he fell asleep after meditating.
"Alright, wash up and have breakfast. Don't eat too much, someone will ask for a big one at noon. Xiao Yi come and wait for Brother Lin to get up!" Elena shouted outside.
Lin Qian's mind was still cloudy, and when he heard that someone outside seemed to be coming in to wait, he hurriedly shirked it: "No, I don't need others to wait." ”
It was a woman who came in, about eighteen or nineteen years old, about the same age as Lin Qian, holding a basin of water with her head down.
"Young Master Lin, the slave maid serves you to change clothes. The woman put down the water and was about to come over, Lin Qian immediately wrapped the quilt, and her face was a little embarrassed: "That...... No, I'll do it myself. Elena, I'm not used to being waited by others, just your brother Lin alone. ”
"Giggles, Brother Lin is still shy. Okay, I'm out, Xiaoyi, don't snub Brother Lin. Elena ignored Lin Qian's protests and left the two of them here and ran out by herself.
"You, you go out first, I'll come by myself, that ...... I fell asleep last night, it was you...... Do you want me to take off your clothes?" Lin Qian was still not good at communicating with women of the same age, and he stammered when he spoke, and his face was dyed red.
Although the maid named Xiaoyi lowered her head, an unknown smile appeared on her face, she slowly raised her head, stared at Lin Qian with a pair of wonderful eyes, and kissed her lips: "Does Lin Gongzi remember me?"
"You?" Lin Qian has rarely had contact with women since he came to this world, how can he recognize this palace maid, but when he heard her say this, he also looked carefully.
is indeed a beauty, the willow eyebrows are slightly bent, the phoenix eyes are shy, the nose is pretty, and the mouth is slightly pursed, which makes Lin Qian not very embarrassed for a while. However, by looking at this side, Lin Qian also really saw a little eyebrow.
"Oh, you're that beggar......" Lin Qian suddenly remembered, "'s twin sister?"
After listening to the first half of the sentence, Xiao Yi thought he remembered, but when he heard it, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and snicker.
It's no wonder that Lin Qian couldn't guess that the beggar that day looked really sloppy, and the difference between him and this fairy-like woman was too far, and the identities of the two were too different.
"Lin Gongzi, I am the beggar of the day. Xiao Yi stopped smiling and said.
"Wouldn't it?" Lin Qian still didn't believe it, but seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, he believed it.
"Do you know me?" Lin Qian asked his question.
"Recognize. Xiao Yi nodded.
"No, I mean you knew me before?"
"Recognize. ”
To be honest, Lin Qian didn't believe it, but he believed that the other party was not lying, could it be that he misunderstood. He reorganized his language before asking, "I mean, before yesterday, when you were a beggar, did you know me?"
Xiao Yi's face did not change, and she still nodded: "I know." I have known Lin Gongzi since he first came to this world. ”
"Then you are...... What is the purpose?" Lin Qian was sure that the other party knew his identity, and he unceremoniously talked to the other party.
"Xiao Yi approached Childe, just wanted to ask Childe for something. The woman's face suddenly turned red.
"What's the matter?" Maybe it's Elena's reason, Lin Qian has a layer of wariness for the beautiful women in this world.
"Marry me!" the woman looked directly at Lin Qian, with a shy blush on her face, and ...... Incredibly relaxing.
This...... Lin Qian was stunned again, these eyes had infinite charm, and Lin Qian was fixed on the spot.
Lin Qian thought to himself: I don't know this girl, and I don't have any emotional foundation to marry her? And I am not a person from this world, how can we communicate with each other? Besides, it is a problem for me to protect my own situation, is it difficult to drag my family with my family? Although the girl's situation does not seem to be a lie, it is indeed inappropriate to regard the marriage event as a fixed plan.
After thinking for a long time, Lin Qian blurted out: "Okay!"
