Chapter 25: Sacrifice!
Half an hour later, Qi Xiang drove the car back to the city smoothly.
At the corner of the street, Qi Xiang slowly parked, got off from here, walked for a few minutes, and went directly to his house.
"Boss Jiang, I'll go down here." Qi Xiang smiled, unbuckled his seat belt, opened the car door and went down.
"Okay...... Jiang Wan waved his hand, and suddenly stopped Qi Xiang: "Brother, wait a minute." ”
"What's the matter?" Qi Xiang was a little strange.
Jiang Million thought for a moment and hesitated: "...... It's nothing, if you have time for the next two days, you can go to my house and sit down. ”
"Oh......" Qi Xiang nodded, also a little inexplicable.
After saying this, Jiang Million drove away.
Seeing Jiang Million leave, Qi Xiang walked briskly to a nearby bank and took out a check to cash it. It took some time to go through the formalities, and the 1 million was successfully received and transferred to his bank account.
Sure enough, money is a hero's courage.
The wallet bulged, and Qi Xiang's waist couldn't help but straighten up, and he walked majestically......
Traveled all the way and soon returned home.
Qi Xiang opened the door and went straight to the kitchen to inspect the pot where the spices were boiled. After two days of cooling, the balm in the pot has curdled into a paste, like dough.
Qi Xiang lowered his nose and sniffed, and the strong aroma that he had choked before had faded at this time, and he only smelled a wisp of elegant and dark fragrance.
The dark fragrance floats, like clouds and mist, with a somewhat ethereal feeling.
Qi Xiang reached into the pot and poked it again, feeling that the dough-like balm was a little elastic and not sticky, as if it was pine resin, soft and soft.
"This ...... It should be considered a success, right? Qi Xiang was overjoyed, and hurriedly took out this ball of incense paste, pinched a little more, and rubbed it together to form a ball of incense pills the size of a lychee core.
A pot of incense paste, and in the end, only more than 30 incense pills were kneaded.
On average, the price of an incense pill is at least 10,000 yuan. Thinking like this, Qi Xiang felt distressed again. But then I thought of the one million that had just been credited, and my mood suddenly improved.
"By the way, there'......"
Qi Xiang's thoughts turned again, and he thought of the page of letterhead on Chen Beixue's desk from one million. In an instant, his heart moved, pinched an incense pill, and fell into thoughts.
"Why don't you try it?"
After pondering for a while, Qi Xiang also made a decision, and immediately returned to the room with the incense pill.
In the middle of the room, there was an electric incense burner that he had prepared. After all, incense pills must not be burned directly, but by means of fumigation, so that the aroma spreads.
The incense burner was energized, and Qi Xiang carefully put an incense pill on the electric heating sheet. When the electric current is heated, the incense pills soften slightly, and wisps of fresh and pleasant aroma directly float away.
At this time, Qi Xiang's mind moved, and the magnificent tortoise shell like glass appeared in his hand out of thin air.
"Sacrifice, how to sacrifice, how to refine?" Qi Xiang thought about it for a while, took a stand and put it next to the incense burner, and then put the tortoise shell on the stand.
And then ...... It's like bloodletting......"
Qi Xiang swallowed in his throat, hesitated, and took a sharp needle from the drawer, then closed his eyes and pricked a needle on his ring finger.
"Phew!"
Qi Xiang gasped, it was really painful. Squeeze it, and a drop of red blood gushes out.
"Can't afford to waste it."
Qi Xiang hurriedly dripped blood on the tortoise shell, and then pinched his fingers, and another drop of blood rushed out. He hurriedly shifted the place and dripped the blood on the incense pill.
"Zizi ......"
The blood on the incense pill quickly seeped into the electric heating sheet, and a little white smoke immediately appeared.
Qi Xiang put down the needle, licked the wound of his finger, and observed intently.
White smoke floats, like wisps, twisting and hovering in the air. Suddenly, the smoke seemed to be attracted by something, and the momentum of the rise changed immediately, as if it was returning to the dragon Gu Zu, and flew to the sky above the tortoise shell to condense.
Over time, the incense pills gradually softened and became smaller and smaller. The blue-white smoke is increasing.
A few minutes later, above the tortoise shell, a mushroom-like cloud had condensed.
The clouds were white on the outside and blue on the inside, as if they were heavy, and suddenly they slowly fell down in mid-air, and then shrouded the tortoise shell on the tabletop.
Qi Xiang kept his attention, only to see that after a while, the thick clouds quickly dissolved, and the blood he dripped on the tortoiseshell suddenly became more and more delicate, like a ruby, emitting a brilliant light.
At first glance, Qi Xiang is also a little distracted. However, when he saw the blood surging as if it had spirituality, trembling slightly on the tortoise shell, he immediately reacted. Now is not the time to be in a daze, and the sacrificial steps are not yet over.
"Last Step ......"
Qi Xiang held his breath and concentrated, quickly stretched out his finger and dipped it in the blood, and then slowly sketched a pattern with an unknown image.
He didn't know what the specific meaning of this pattern was, anyway, he drew a scoop according to the gourd and sketched it according to the hints on the letterhead. He just knew that this should be a Taoist talisman, that is, a ghost painting talisman that is often said in the mouths of ordinary people.
The talisman is a little complicated, Qi Xiang's first attempt, the outlined lines are naturally crooked, unsightly.
And I don't know why, when he was sketching the talisman, he suddenly felt a wave of fatigue, his mental strength was lost greatly, and he was very weak.
"What's the situation?"
Qi Xiang felt that something was wrong, but vaguely, he also realized that it should be related to the drawing of talismans.
"You can't give up halfway......"
Qi Xiang hurriedly gritted his teeth, tried his best to lift his spirit, and tried his last strength to make up the last two strokes of the talisman.
The talisman is formed, and the talisman painted in blood is all over the tortoise shell, which affects the appearance very much. After some smearing, the blood, which was originally red like a jewel, also became dark and light.
Qi Xiang looked down and found that the tortoise shell had no movement, and couldn't help but wonder, was the so-called sacrifice a failure?
In an instant, a little dry and astringent blood suddenly bloomed.
The brilliance is blazing, as if the sun is shining, like a needle.
Qi Xiang subconsciously closed his eyes, but in a daze, he noticed that the brilliant talisman instantly penetrated into the interior of the tortoise shell, intertwined with the glazed brilliance of the tortoise shell itself.
In an instant, the tortoise shell suddenly shrank into a ball and condensed into a single ......
A little glow, like a meteor catching the moon, rushed to Qi Xiang's forehead, and it flashed away.
"Boom!"
At this moment, Qi Xiang's body and mind were shaking, sweating like pulp, gurgling and seeping.
Suddenly, on the seal hall of Qi Xiang, it was suddenly bright like snow, and there was a faint light reflected. The brilliance is like water ripples, sparkling and fluctuating, constantly intertwined, circling, surrounding, and uncertain......
For a long time, Qi Xiang's demeanor was serene, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a happy smile. As for the origin of the tortoise shell, it is finally clear to the chest.
He also sighed a little, and thanks to the method of sacrificial refining on the letterhead, he could be regarded as having completely mastered the tortoise shell and used this strange treasure for his own use. As before, if you leave immediately, the time will never happen again.
As soon as Qi Xiang's thought moved, the tortoise shell immediately flashed, as if it had always existed in his palm.
However, at this time, the shape of the tortoise shell has undergone some changes. The magnificent glazed luster, but it has been restrained and silent, returning to the basics, and the beauty is self-contained.
The other is the volume of the tortoise shell, which was originally the size of a matchbox. But now, it has shrunk by half, just like a peanut, inconspicuous and easy to ignore.
"It seems that it can be ...... smaller"
Qi Xiang's thoughts moved again, only to see the soft light of the tortoise shell flash, and the volume was reduced by half again. Then it shrunk and continued to shrink, and finally it shrunk into a sesame seed-sized one.
With such a volume, if you want to see the details and texture of the tortoise shell, I am afraid that you need a very high magnifying glass to do it.
Qi Xiang also knew that in fact, the tortoise shell could still shrink, shrink into dust particles, or even disappear. But with his current ability, it seems that he can't do this.
Under the control of Qi Xiang, the tortoise shell returned to its normal size. The warm luster is very pleasing to the eyes. In his senses, the tortoise shell is equivalent to a part of his body, and the blood is connected, and there is no distinction between them.
But unfortunately, just like he doesn't have a full understanding of his body. As for the tortoise shell, he is also in the stage of knowing what it is and not knowing why it is.
Anyway, Qi Xiang knew that the tortoise shell was not the final form of this strange treasure. In other words, tortoise shells are only one of the forms of the Exotic Treasure, and there are other forms......
Qi Xiang held the tortoise shell, his palm moved slightly, and the hard tortoise shell suddenly softened, like a ball of noodles, and slowly underwent some changes without anyone pulling it.
"Poof!"
Before the change was formed, a brilliant light flashed, and the dough was restored to the tortoiseshell state.
"Sure enough...... Qi Xiang wiped the sweat from his forehead, his expression was very regretful and regretful. At this moment, a strange sound reached his ears, which also made him stunned.
His heart moved, and he immediately collected the tortoise shell and walked to the window to take a look.
At this time, it was already night, and the sky was dark, and there was no moon in the gloomy, as if it was going to rain.
The moon is dark and the wind is high, which can hide many traces.
However, Qi Xiang's sense of hearing is unusually keen, but he has captured some movements that ordinary people can't hear. Outside his house, for example, there seems to be someone climbing the wall.
He stood at the window and saw a dark figure crawling down silently in the dark courtyard.
Under the response of the black shadow, two or three people climbed over the wall and entered the hospital.
"Thief?" Qi Xiang frowned, feeling that these thieves were too rampant, and there were still people in the house, so they dared to crawl in and steal. Is this stealing, or robbery?
Qi Xiang pondered whether to call the police, and then called the neighbors to catch the thief.
Suddenly, several people in the courtyard gathered together, talking to each other and whispering.
"No one seems to ......"
"It's so late, haven't you come home yet?"
"Did you sleep?"
"Touch in and see ......"
"People are here, just hit it. When the man is not there, we lie in ambush and wait for him to return. ”
"Good idea......
After a few discussions, they tiptoed to the room.
