XXXI. Surge (I)
In the door-like light curtain, the dark colors flowed quietly, and only six people stood in two groups in the dimly lit field.
Ji Haiyun and the ordinary-looking teacher Ma Jing, as well as the short-haired female teacher Kong Yun, were still whispering something, and a little farther away from the "door", the thin and tall teacher Gao Dengmin was explaining to the new students standing honestly in front of him, Zhang Longqian and Mo Ruyu.
"'Spirit' is what is commonly referred to as 'ghost', which is a collective term and is divided into two types: 'soul' and 'ghost'." Stretching out two fingers and gesturing, Gao Dengmin said lightly, "'Soul' refers to the soul body that is separated from the **, and the one that is free in the yang world is called 'wandering soul', which is basically in a state of dull thinking and cannot be gathered into a personality before death; And the level of 'ghosts' is higher than that of 'souls', and they are all spirits that stay in the underworld, which are subdivided into powerful ghosts, evil ghosts, etc. ”
After saying a few words, Gao Dengmin stopped, glanced at Zhang Longqian and Mo Ruyu, and he didn't continue, but said: "I know that you haven't learned these basic knowledge systematically, but this kind of empty explanation is not my style, so let's introduce so much." As for the rest of the ......," he said, pointing to the "door" that led to the "Spiritual Study" field, his tone was sure and calm, "You can learn there, after all, there are all levels of spirits in the 'Spirit Research Field', and you will be able to have a better understanding after actual contact, which is much better than explaining like this." ”
After speaking, Gao Dengmin motioned for the two to follow him to the "door".
Seeing this, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but raise his hand with some doubts: "That...... Teacher Gao, is it really good not to explain all this knowledge before class? ”
"You won't remember too much." Glancing at them, Gao Dengmin replied in a deep voice, "'Spiritual Study' is originally a practice-based course, and it is useless to just talk about it, but the three of us don't say a word in class on weekdays, and today I have only talked so much for the sake of both of you being new students." ”
Saying this, Gao Dengmin looked really lazy to say anything, and he couldn't expect him to say some useful information at all, Zhang Longqian turned his head to look at the ominous-colored "door", and she couldn't understand anything She could only ask another question: "Then what are we going to do after we go in?" ”
Looking at Zhang Longqian, Gao Dengmin replied simply: "Feel free, you can choose to take the initiative to contact the spirits inside, or you can choose to avoid it, there is no hard requirement for this, but your performance in it will be counted in your usual grades." ”
"What are the grading criteria?"
For Zhang Longqian's such a straightforward question, Gao Dengmin couldn't help but laugh, and then answered dryly.
"Of course I can't tell you."
This answer made Zhang Longqian couldn't help but smile, so he didn't ask any more.
Seeing that everything that should be said seemed to be almost finished, Gao Dengmin led the two to turn around and walk towards the "door", and after thinking about it, he stopped and turned to look at them.
"Speaking of which, the students in the Yin class and the Chen class are all from non-family backgrounds, and your entrance exam should be different from that of the family, not to deal with evil spirits, but for members of the student association to engage in skirmishes with you, right?"
Hearing Gao Dengmin's question, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but think of some of the information she talked about when she was chatting with Bai Lu Zhou Miao.
The academy has a wide range of students, and every quarter it not only receives students recommended by the family, but also selects qualified mortals or casual cultivators from various places, and issues admission notices to them, and those who are willing to enroll can find the academy according to the guidance of this notice.
Due to different backgrounds, the spell-related education received is also different, the members of the family who have learned spells since childhood are judged by fighting with evil spirits, and at the same time judging that they can be enrolled, they directly decide on this class, and the non-family members who have little experience in spell learning or have not learned spells at all obviously can't do so, so they will be arranged for a slightly less difficult battle, it doesn't matter if they don't win, as long as they meet certain requirements in it, they can be enrolled, and then go through the placement test to decide the class.
So Mo Ruyu, who heard this question, immediately nodded silently, but Zhang Longqian just pulled the corners of his mouth, embarrassed to say that he had not experienced the entrance exam.
Seeing that Mo Ruyu was sure, Gao Dengmin said again: "Although none of you have ever been in contact with evil ghosts, I can clearly tell you that there are evil ghosts in the venue of 'Spirit Research', but I don't know which area they are in, and the places you go to are also random, pay more attention to yourself, if you really can't deal with it, call us, call anyone's name, and we will pull you out immediately." That's all for the precautions, so ...... now"
"Sorry, can I borrow some time first?"
Hearing the sound and looking over, he saw Ji Haiyun, who was still whispering something to Atletico and Kong Yun before, came over, and Gao Dengmin raised his eyebrows: "Huh? I remember you are ......" looked at Zhang Longqian, and he nodded at Ji Haiyun clearly.
Signaling Zhang Long to sneak to the edge of the venue, Ji Haiyun whispered to her: "I'm sorry, eldest miss, I can't accompany you in this class, you have to go alone." ”
After all, it could be heard from Gao Dengmin's words that this would definitely be the case, Zhang Longqian nodded, but he didn't care too much, but Ji Haiyun looked at her seriously, looking not very relieved.
"Miss, you have a soul suppression jade, right?"
"Hmm."
"Let me see."
After arriving at the academy, the existence of the soul suppression jade was not so eye-catching, hearing that Zhang Longqian did not shy away from taking out the jade pendant from under his clothes, Ji Haiyun reached out to hold the small jade pendant, observed it carefully for a moment, and muttered: "Ward off evil spirits and suppress souls...... Is the soul suppressant stronger...... It's not enough......"
After thinking about it, he asked again: "Miss, do you have pierced ears?" ”
Although he didn't understand why Ji Haiyun was asking this, Zhang Longqian still touched his left ear and nodded: "There is one." ”
"That's good." Ji Haiyun took out a small thing and handed it to her, "Bring this." ”
Lying in the palm of his hand is an earring shaped like a water droplet, about one centimeter long, the whole is a very beautiful royal blue, in the dim light seems to have blue light slowly flowing in it, at a glance it looks like a microcosm of the sea, very beautiful.
After taking it and looking at it to confirm that it was really an earring, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but look at Ji Haiyun suspiciously: "What are you doing with the earrings for me?" ”
Looking at the things in Zhang Longqian's palm, Ji Haiyun's gaze was a little softer than usual.
"Hmm...... It's a talisman. ”
