Chapter Twenty-Three: Frog Bells
The blood melted into Zhou Xian's eyebrows, but it did not leave a trace like the sprouts and edamame.
Ji Cheng withdrew his hand and looked at Zhou Xian, who didn't feel anything unusual, "In this way, you can use something that belongs to me." Immediately, he didn't shy away from it, and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, on which was some information about Zhou Xian written by Zhou's mother at that time, "You will ...... Judo? ”
"I've practiced before, but my rank is not very high." Zhou Xian nodded, "It turned out that I got the third rank, but now I shouldn't be able to pass this rank." ”
"Yes, at least you won't be helpless when you encounter something." Ji Yin nodded, and continued to watch and said, "When the time comes, let A-Ying train you, and both of you should be more relaxed." ”
"Does the boss need me to protect Ji Xiaoran?"
Ji Cheng glanced up at Zhou Xian and chuckled, "I don't expect you to be able to protect her at this stage, I just hope you can save her life." ”
These words were very complicated, and Ji Cheng didn't expect Zhou Xian to figure it out, so he put down the paper he was holding in his hand, took out a wooden box from his sleeve and put it on the wooden table that the two of them saw.
Zhou Xian's eyes glanced at Ji Ying's sleeve: Is this the same thing as King Dora's sleeve?
The dark red pear blossom wooden box, the four corners are covered with brass, the surface is smooth and smooth, and the irregular scars during the growth process form a "ghost face" like a fox's head on the surface of the box.
Ji Cheng opened the box, and inside were two bells, one large and one small, one black and one white.
The bell is hollowed out throughout, and although it is large and small, it is very small and exquisite. The shaped bell looks like a plum blossom or peach blossom from above, but when viewed from the side, the hollowed-out lines seem to be woven into a metal cage, trapping the silver ball inside.
At the top of the bell is a ring button, and Ji Ying took out the black bell with the black rope tied to it.
The bell shook in the air, but it didn't sound as crisp as expected.
"Doesn't it ring?" Zhou Xian took the bell and shook it gently, but there was still no sound, not even the muffled sound of the ball hitting the shell.
"Well, you're the mother bell, so it doesn't ring." Ji Cheng took out the white bell again and began to shake it gently. The ball in the bell hits the hollowed-out texture, making a crisp sound.
Not long after ringing, the bell held by Zhou Xian began to shake in the air by itself, and a sound came out.
"Ringing yourself?!" Zhou Xian raised his hand, his eyes pressed against the bell in his hand, and he saw that the small ball inside the cavity began to shake from side to side, hitting the cavity and making a sound.
"When the child bell rings, the mother bell will feel it." Ji Cheng hung the bell on a wooden stand with a sachet on the table, and with a flick of his fingers, the child bell shook violently, and the mother bell also intensified the shaking, and the bell rang endlessly.
Suddenly, Zhou Xian felt that there was something more in front of him, and his eyes moved away from the bell, and he saw that Zi Ling appeared in front of him with the hanging wooden frame and the sachet on the shelf.
"There are insects in the south, and the children must be born according to the blades of grass. Take the son, and the mother will fly, not far or near. Eighty-one articles of money with the blood of the mother, and eighty-one articles of money with the blood of the child, each thing in the city, or the first use of the mother's money, or the first use of the child's money, are all back to fly, and there is no rotation. Therefore, "Huainan Zishu" repaid the money with it, and the name was green worm. Ji Cheng looked at the shocked Zhou Xian, smiled and stretched out his hand to move Ziling and the wooden frame back to their original positions, "In ancient times, someone took the blood of the female green worm and the child green worm and smeared it on the copper coins respectively, and spent the copper coins coated with the blood of the female green worms, and they could be retrieved through the air with the copper coins of the blood of the child green worms, and vice versa." The bell cores of the child bell and the mother bell are respectively integrated with the blood of the child green worm and the blood of the mother green worm. The bell usually does not make a sound, and when the child bell shakes, the mother bell will sense and ring. When the child bell rings to a certain frequency, the mother bell will bring the child bell to herself. ”
"That doesn't make sense!" Zhou Xian's eyes were full of incredulity, "How did it come here?" Fly directly? Or did you travel through space? ”
"What doesn't belong here, naturally uses the methods of the world that belongs to it." Ji Ying plucked the bell again, Zhou Xian couldn't take his eyes off it, only to see that the bell disappeared out of thin air with the wooden frame, and almost at the same time, they appeared in Zhou Xian's hand, "You can understand that when it rang, it returned to the mountain and sea realm, and came out of the mountain and sea realm again, and came to the mother bell." ”
"It's like the anti-biotic incense that your father bought, what doesn't belong here, just accept it, and don't try to use science to find an explanation."
"So, this means that if Xiao Ran is in danger in the future, I can get to her in time?"
"It's the other way around." Ji Ying's face was solemn, "It's Ji Xiaoran who is in danger, she can escape to you." The effective use range of frog bells is two kilometers, which is enough to cover the area of your school. The two of you are not in the same grade or major, and there is basically no time for the activity space to be repeated on weekdays. Therefore, there is no need to increase the time between two people in the future, so as to ensure that you are in a safe place when she is in danger. ”
As he spoke, Ji Cheng sighed, "It's not fair to you, your mother didn't just bet your life freedom on me, but also your life. In order for the child and mother bell to be effective, in places other than the mountain and sea pavilion, I hope you can continue to follow your original life route. Only the farther you go, the safer Xiao Ran may be. But there is no way to guarantee that Xiao Ran will be able to get out of danger after escaping to you, so I need to arrange for Ah Ying to train you. ”
Ji Cheng held up two fingers, "Two days, you have to make sure that you can stay in the store completely for two days a week during this month." ”
For Zhou Xian, there are no courses in the third year, and what he is mainly preparing for now is the screening of the research institute. After thinking carefully about what might happen in the past month, he nodded and agreed.
"Then it's decided, you put away the mother bell, you can hang it on your schoolbag or key, just remember to carry it with you." Ji Ying turned his wheelchair and opened the door, and at first glance, he saw Ji Xiaoran squatting in the corner, holding a piece of half-eaten durian meat in his hand and looking at himself, "Can you girl pay attention to her image?!" ”
Ji Xiaoran hurriedly stuffed the remaining pulp into his mouth and walked over to him, pulling out a tissue casually on the way, and spoke slurredly: "Are you finished?" ”
"That's it." Ji Cheng handed over the bell in his hand angrily, "Well, if there is danger in the future, you can ring the bell." ”
"Rattle?" Ji Xiaoran grabbed the paper ball with one hand, took the bell with the other hand and began to shake it, asking as he shook it, "What will happen?" Is there a shockwave in the movie that can sweep away thousands of troops? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Xiaoran only felt that his feet were soft in front of him, and when he reacted, he fell into a warm embrace.
"You can't be so proactive, can you?" Zhou Xian looked at the person who suddenly fell on him and still looked confused, and smiled a little helplessly, "I haven't gotten up yet, otherwise we will both go to the ground." ”
Ji Cheng held his forehead, only to feel that his brain was hurting.
