War

Near noon, Yu Siqi and Father An had a decent lunch under Ji Xian's hospitality.

This is undoubtedly a comfort to them who have not eaten all morning.

In addition, Ji Xian also chatted with him very enthusiastically.

"I heard that the priest plans to perform 'spiritism' at nightfall?"

Ji first wiped the oil stains on his mouth and unscrewed a bottle of juice drink.

"You still know 'spiritism'?"

Father An looked at Ji Xian with interest and asked.

"My grandmother mentioned this to me when she was alive. She said that if she was communicating with someone who hadn't been dead for a long time, she would use 'spiritism'. But if you want to talk to someone who has been dead for a long time, you have to resort to a more extreme 'Soul Summoning Spell'.

The former will not provoke the other party, while the latter is prone to get into trouble by disturbing the long sleep of the deceased. ”

After taking a few sips of the drink, Ji Xian said matter-of-factly.

Listening to his tone, this guy seems to be quite knowledgeable.

"Looks like your grandma does have some skills."

Father An glanced at Ji Xian with an approving gaze and said.

"That's nature. My grandmother used to say that at that time, if someone wanted to be buried in the ground, they often had to get a live pig and cover its eyes with a black cloth. Then, more than an inch below its neck, a not-so-deep cut was made.

Then put the pig at the bottom of the mountain, and it will run towards the mountain on its own. In this way, it is called 'opening the mountain'. When the pig's blood was drained and he fell, dig a pit where it fell and bury the dead. ”

Ji Xian proudly told them about a very out-of-the-way folk custom, Yu Siqi, as a child who grew up in the countryside, even heard of such an 'operation' for the first time.

"Isn't your grandmother the 'psychic medium' who was active in Siasun decades ago? If I'm not mistaken, there was a lot of people who liked to 'play tricks' at the time, and they all ended up getting into trouble because of their 'doing'. ”

Father An glanced at Ji Xian, who first stiffened his face for a moment, and then immediately smiled, saying, "She was lucky, and with the help of nobles, she escaped." And my grandmother also followed the instructions of the nobles, and never again contaminated with this kind of yin and yang. I am telling you this today because I just remembered it by chance. If the priest cares, then I won't talk about it. ”

"It's still a good thing to be able to change the past! Your grandmother has this blessing, and it is also the blessing of your Ji family. ”

Father Ann nodded, and did not pursue any further.

"That's nature."

After seeing the priest's attitude, Ji Xian's expression recovered a little. Yu Siqi even saw this guy secretly loosen his clenched fist and let go.

It seems that he was not too satisfied with Father Ann's words.

However, this does not affect their ability to talk to each other aimlessly about topics for the rest of their time.

For example, what Ji Xian has always wanted to know, Yu Siqi's time ability, is it innate, or awakened since childhood.

"Of course it's acquired. I'm not afraid you know, just a few months ago, I was just an ordinary office worker. ”

Yu Siqi said his own things without concealment.

"This is not a special situation. In fact, more than half of the people in the organization have awakened their abilities, including myself. Ji Xian stretched out his hands and said, "I can analyze the composition of something without using an instrument, and I can also confirm its proportion without touching the medicine." That's the main reason why I became the chief physician.

Of course, I can't pretend that my medical certificate is a forgery. ”

"Does everyone in the organization have their own abilities?"

Yu Siqi asked in surprise.

"More than half. There are also some who have no extraordinary talent, but have some special 'skills'. For example, Gong Chen, who is often with you, has not inherited the slightest ability from his parents. can only rely on a good hand of archery, as well as some family heirlooms, to fight for a place for himself. ”

When Ji Xian withdrew his hand, his tone was very calm, as if he was explaining some facts.

"I've never heard him talk about his parents."

Yu Siqi said frankly.

"Maybe I'm ashamed."

As soon as Ji Xian finished saying this, a familiar voice fell on them.

Or maybe he didn't feel the need for it. Has no one ever told you to try to express as little subjective opinion as possible on things you don't understand? ”

Gong Chen looked at Ji Xian with cold eyes. Under his eyes, Ji Xian once again showed embarrassment.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't be talking about this kind of story behind someone's back, not being brought out to talk about. If I was offended just now, I hope you will forgive me. ”

Ji Xian is a well-educated person after all, and he himself is not a very stubborn person.

When he realized that he was at a loss, Ji Xian's first thought was to apologize.

This is undoubtedly the most effective and at the same time the most suitable for the moment.

Sure enough, under Ji Xian's first 'self-examination', Gong Chen, a person who was born without a careful eye, can be said to be immediately relieved.

"That's what it sounds like." Gong Chen nodded with satisfaction. Then, he looked at Yu Siqi with a resentful expression and said, "I was worried that you would be hungry if you didn't eat breakfast." But now it seems that this is clearly overthinking.

Hey, sure enough, there are other people's meals, and the instant noodles I sent thousands of miles away won't be fragrant! ”

"What a stupid thing to say! I didn't know you would come out of here. ”

Yu Siqi knew that Gong Chen was deliberately squeezing himself, so he made a move and patted the other party gently.

As soon as Gong Chen saw that he dared to make a move, he immediately began to fight back, "Oh, buddy, don't you learn well!" It turns out that the priest is going to absolve himself of responsibility, and the priest really loves to 'teach the bad guys'. No, I'll have to teach you a lesson while there's still time. ”

The two of them are like children, there they are 'you and I'.

Finally, it wasn't until they were both sweating profusely that Father Ann stopped them, saying, "I guess you're going to go this far more than just to deliver that 'junk food'." ”

"Of course it's more than that. Actually, I have something important to tell you about this time. While you are still here to do nothing, the war has begun. ”

Gong Chen wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve and said breathlessly.
