Chapter 17: Smells
"Try it to see if it fits," after saying what he had to say, Yu Yan handed the white clothes on the sofa to Chu Xiao, "Wear this tonight." ”
"Ah, do you want to dress uniformly?" Chu Xiao had never worn an ancient costume, so he took the straight skirt that Yu Huan prepared for himself, and he was really happy for a while.
"What color is the soul most insensitive to?" Yu asked.
"White!"
blurted out, Chu Xiao was very glad that the question asked by Yu Yan was in the content he saw, although the tone of the answer was very calm, but that little pride still had some traces between his eyebrows.
After such a reminder, Chu Xiao also understood the reason why the spirit girls wore white clothes, because the soul was the least sensitive to white, so wearing white clothes was equivalent to night clothes, which could play a certain degree of stealth.
Chu Xiao hurriedly hugged his clothes and went back to the room, leaving Yu Yan to check the cloth bag in the living room.
"A cyan belt?"
Staring at the cyan straps stacked on top of his clothes, Chu Xiao was a little surprised at first. It is said that he has not undergone any training in the Soul Threshold, so it is an honor to be able to wear this "uniform", why did he return it to a cyan belt, no matter how he thought about it, it should be a blue belt that means that he has just started.
"This is to treat me as a spirit girl......" Chu Xiao muttered happily as she changed her clothes.
After changing her clothes, Chu Xiao walked out of the room and saw that Yu Yan was also dressed, and her hair had been fixed with a soul fixing needle. Last time at her aunt's house, Chu Xiao thought that Yu Huan's hair was just a silver hairpin, but now after Yu Huan's introduction, she knew that it was a soul fixing needle, which was used to fix the soul.
Because the soul is free of physical bonds, it will become easy to move, and you can do difficult actions such as volleys that people can't usually do. When the soul moves, it can be as fast as flying, so when the filthy spirit is driven out of the body, if it is not fixed in time with the soul fixing needle, it is likely to let the filthy spirit run away.
"Hey, what about You, isn't it with us?" asked Chu Xiao.
"You Qi has other tasks, this filthy spirit is easy to find and catch, and you don't need to help. ”
It seems that if you want to take a good look at Youqi's performance in the spirit hunting, you have to wait until the next time you meet a difficult filthy spirit. Chu Xiao felt that since tonight was just an apprenticeship, Yu Yan would definitely not take himself to deal with any difficult filthy spirits.
In the dark sky, the moon flickered, the moonlight was very hazy, there were no street lights in the countryside, and the fields were almost out of sight.
In a piece of farmland with Yu Xuan, Chu Xiao turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone to illuminate it, intending to see the surrounding environment clearly.
"Don't turn on the lights. ”
As soon as he felt the light of the mobile phone, Yu Yan hurriedly turned around, and then covered the light source of Chuxiao's mobile phone with one hand and said in a low voice.
"Oh. ”
Chu Xiao was immediately nervous by Yu Yan's action, she quickly put away her mobile phone, and then took the cloth bag on Yu Yan's body and carried it.
"Help me with this. ”
Yu Ming handed Chu Xiao a baseball-sized filthy Ming ball, and Chu Xiao took the filthy ball and quietly followed Yu Ming along the ridge.
When walking at night, if you follow someone else, you will inevitably feel insecure, as if you are following something.
A mist of fear began to appear in Chu Xiao's heart, and what Yu Xi had said before came to her mind.
At that time, Yu Yan finished a rough introduction to the soul fixing needle in the cloth bag, and then asked: "Do you see the filthy spirits written in the book absorb people's negative energy?"
"Not yet...... Not soon, though. In the face of Yu Yan's question, Chu Xiao explained.
"Then I'll say it simply," Yu Yan smiled lightly, "When you see a filthy spirit, don't be afraid, keep as calm as possible, otherwise your fear and other negative emotions will give the filthy spirit a chance to absorb negative energy, which can easily cause danger, and the more you are afraid, the more dangerous it is......"
This memory kept reappearing in her mind, Chu Xiao always thought about the sentence "The more scared you are, the more dangerous it is", she restrained her fear, and felt that Yu Xi might as well not tell herself this, now that she knows this, her fear is becoming more and more difficult to overcome.
Thinking of what Yu Yan said, fear kept popping up in Chu Xiao's heart, and on the other hand, he reluctantly produced a sense of fearlessness in order to stop the fear, so fear and fearlessness were like two gases, and the two rose and fell one after another in Chu Xiao's heart.
"Do you smell any special smell?" As he was walking, Yu Yan suddenly turned around, glanced around, and then asked Chu Xiao.
There seemed to be no smell in the air except the smell of earth. But since Yu Xi asked so, then she must have smelled an unusual smell, so Chu Xiao sniffed it in all directions very carefully, but I don't know if it was because of the synesthesia obstruction, Chu Xiao didn't smell any special smell.
Just when he was feeling a little disappointed, a faint smell like mud and rotten grass wafted into his nose, and Chu Xiao's eyes suddenly flashed, "Is it a smell of mud and rotten grass?"
Although Chu Xiao was very much looking forward to Yu Huan affirming his answer, Yu Huan just replied lightly "No". After speaking, Yu Yan walked behind Chu Xiao, she pointed to the front with her finger, and motioned for Chu Xiao to continue walking forward.
I thought I had smelled that special smell, but I didn't expect to be vetoed by Yu Yan all of a sudden, Chu Xiaozhen felt a little frustrated, but she didn't give up, but continued to smell while walking, and at the same time asked Yu Yan, "Can you describe what kind of smell it is, I'll lean over there." ”
"That means you don't smell anything special. ”
"Well, what kind of smell is special, it's hard to define, if you don't describe that smell, how can I be sure I don't smell it......? But I probably didn't smell it, it's not that my sense of smell is blocked, I guess my sense of smell isn't good. ”
"That's right. Yu Huan's tone was still light, and she felt that she didn't put her mind on listening to Chu Xiao's answer.
"Yes, what, is my sense of smell really not better?" Yu Huan's words came a little inexplicably, and Chu Xiao didn't quite understand what it meant.
"It's just that you can't smell that particular smell. ”
"Ahh......h Oh!"
"Oh" is because Chu Xiao understands why Yu Yan said "That's right", and "Oh" is because Chu Xiao finally reacted, and after a long time, Yu Yan was actually playing himself.
Chu Xiao rolled his eyes slightly at Yu Xi's behavior, but in this way, Chu Xiao's previous nervous mood suddenly relaxed.
"What kind of special smell is it, and since we can't smell it, how do you know it exists?"
