Chapter 15: Meritorious Powers

The autumn breeze is bleak, and there are few pedestrians on the streets.

Back at the inn, it was already dark.

After running around all day, hungry, Fang Yue was rare to be generous to himself, and ordered a meal in the lobby on the first floor of the inn.

There are still a few people eating in the hall at this moment, but everyone is not in their minds, talking about the haunted and dead people in the Wang family's compound today, after all, many people were present at the time, and the details have been spread.

It's just that in just such a short period of time, there are already many versions in circulation, and the more they spread, the more terrifying they become, and people's hearts are panicking. Some merchants from other places said that they had packed up their things tonight and would hurry back to their hometown tomorrow, and they didn't dare to stay in Ping'an County longer.

Some people also say that the county government will definitely invite the master of Guangyuan Temple to go to the royal compound to exorcise ghosts.

But some people also retorted that the harmony of Guangyuan Temple has not yet been able to deal with the female ghost, and the female ghost can destroy the whole family outside the king, how fierce. Last time, Wang Yuanwai had invited them to come to the door to do things, and they also set up flowing water seats, but in the end, there was no accident.

"If you let them know that something has happened to Guangyuan Temple now, and the big monks and small monks have all been eaten by monsters, I don't know how they will react."

Fang Yue sighed in his heart, Guangyuan Temple is also a temple with a flourishing incense, and he originally wanted to go back to the countryside to have a look.

"Little Er, check out."

"Come on, guest officer, you have a total of two dishes and a bowl of rice, and you will benefit twenty-seven Wen."

Fang Yue finished eating, paid the bill, stood up, didn't listen to the discussion of a few residents in the hall, and went upstairs to his room.

The room was dark, and Fang Yue lit a red candle, and the dim candlelight illuminated the surroundings.

The whole room was basic, except for a bed, a wooden table and a chair.

Fang Yue put the candlestick on the wooden table and sat on the chair in front of the wooden table.

There was also a bronze mirror on the wooden table, which was inadvertently turned out of the corner of the inn room when Fang Yue went out in the morning, which was originally covered with dust, but was simply wiped by Fang Yue, and could illuminate people.

"What is the purpose of this jade pendant?"

Fang Yue held the jade pendant redeemed from the pawnshop in his hand, and looked at it over and over in the candlelight.

This is a milky white jade pendant, with simple patterns on the four sides, and two intertwined yin and yang fish carved in the middle of the front.

In the nightmare, this jade pendant was Fang Yue's life-saving item, but Fang Yue hadn't figured out its specific function yet.

Fang Yue glanced at the candle flame on the wooden table, gritted his teeth, pinched the jade pendant with his hand, and put it on the candle flame to bake.

The cold jade began to heat up, getting hotter and hotter, but nothing else happened.

Fang Yue was afraid that he would spoil the jade pendant, so he only baked it for a short while, so he quickly withdrew his hand.

"Fire roasting doesn't work, so try water immersion."

Fang Yue stood up, took the candlestick, went downstairs, found some Xiao Er and asked for a bowl of cold water, and brought it back to the room.

The jade pendant is placed in the bottom of the bowl and soaked in cold water.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Yu Pei still didn't respond.

"Is it really just a function to ward off evil spirits?"

Fang Yue was a little unwilling, this world was too dangerous, he was an ordinary person, could he survive smoothly with just a piece of jade pendant to ward off evil spirits?

Moreover, the key is that it is also unknown whether this jade pendant has the effect of warding off evil spirits, it is just Fang Yue's guess.

Fang Yue raised his head, his gaze unintentionally swept over the bronze mirror on the table, the yellowed mirror reflected his handsome face, delicate facial features, Chenxing's eyes, a few strands of long hair scattered on his forehead, and his lips pursed, with a bit of scholarly spirit.

"What a good skin."

Fang Yue shook his head and smiled bitterly, but what use could this be for his current situation?

As Fang Yue shook his head and smiled bitterly, Fang Yue in the mirror also shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Then, a strange scene appeared, Fang Yue in the mirror suddenly raised his left hand, put the little finger of his left hand half into his mouth, bit it hard, and then wiped the blood that overflowed from the wound of the little finger of his left hand on the jade pendant in his right hand.

Fang Yue in front of the bronze mirror stared blankly at the "Fang Yue" move in the mirror, was shocked, and stood up suddenly.

"This, this is ......"

Fang Yue was shocked, and the first reaction in his heart was that it was haunted, but after a closer look, the "Fang Yue" in the mirror was also standing up, his face frightened.

Fang Yue frowned, "Fang Yue" in the mirror also frowned, Fang Yue stretched out his hand, and "Fang Yue" in the mirror also stretched out his hand.

"Delusion?"

Fang Yue had some suspicions that he had seen it wrong just now, because of the bizarre experience during the day, he thought about it day and dreamed at night, and he hallucinated.

"No, it can't be an illusion, I did make a different movement in the mirror just now than I did in front of the mirror."

Fang Yue gasped, so what did the action of "Fang Yue" in the mirror represent?

He lowered his head and looked at the jade pendant in his hand.

"Blood?"

Dripping blood to recognize the master, Fang Yue had already thought of it.

It's just that in this world where ghosts are rampant, there are many dangers, weird and inexplicable, and it is not a good thing to use the medium of blood at will.

So he tried everything else he could think of first, and put the blood drops to the back of his mind.

Now that such a strange scene appeared in the bronze mirror, Fang Yue hesitated, not knowing if it was a trap.

"Well, what choice do I have now?"

Fang Yue suddenly raised his right hand, put his little finger on the corner of his mouth, and bit down his teeth fiercely.

Ten fingers connected to the heart, severe pain came from the tips of the little fingers, blood beads overflowed, and under the candle flame, bright red and gorgeous.

Fang Yue raised his head and looked at the bronze mirror, in the mirror, "Fang Yue" also looked up at him, looking at each other.

Fang Yue lowered his head, no longer hesitated, and smeared the blood on the fingers of his right hand on the jade pendant in the palm of his left hand.

The bright red blood smeared on the jade pendant, and it gradually melted into the milky white jade.

Then the jade pendant became hotter and hotter, and finally it was as hot as boiling water.

"It worked!"

Fang Yue was pleasantly surprised in his heart, gritted his teeth and held the hot jade pendant tightly and refused to let go.

It was hot to a certain extent, and the jade pendant also began to melt, and the jade melted into a white liquid, which was strangely cold, slowly blending into the flesh of Fang Yue's palm.

Such a strange change made Fang Yue a little uneasy in surprise, but he still didn't make any moves.

Suddenly, Fang Yue felt the world spinning for a while, and then, something appeared in his mind-

Fang Yue——

Merit: 475 points

Avatar: Deduction

"It's ......"

Fang Yue was shocked by the change in his mind, and then he was ecstatic.

"This is my golden finger!"

Coming to this world until now, in just two days, several strange things have been encountered, and the mental pressure experienced by an ordinary person can be imagined.

Especially when he also knew that the nightmare was coming, and that more terrible, bloodier and more terrifying was yet to come, this kind of torment was almost desperate.

And now, I finally have the capital of self-protection, although I don't know the specific role of this golden finger.

Fang Yue immersed his mind in his mind, and a stream of information rushed towards him.

"Report the news of the possible siege of the East China Sea Haikou to Huzhi County, and gain 670 merits. The Wang family compound rescued Hu Zhixian and gained 5 merits. Fusion jade pendant, obtain deduction supernatural powers, and consume 200 points. ”

"The so-called merit should be to punish the evil and promote the good, punish the wicked, stop the evil, help others, and promote good deeds, and you can get merit points."

Through these messages, Fang Yue probably understood the origin of the merit points.

"The act of reporting the news of the possible attack of the East China Sea Haikou to the county government was originally my unintentional move, and it also meant to protect myself, after all, if I really let the East China Sea Haikou break the city, not only will the people of the city suffer, how can I be spared? Earning 670 merit points was a bonus. ”

"However, after saving Hu Zhi County, there are only 5 merit points, and he is also a county magistrate, in charge of hundreds of thousands of people in Ping'an County, and his every move has a great impact on the people of Ping'an County, so worthless."

"This can only show that Hu Zhixian is really not very good, he is not a good official, and it is not beneficial to the people, but fortunately, he has at least merit points for saving him, and he has not been deducted merit points, and it is not hopeless, and it is heinous."

These thoughts flashed through Fang Yue's heart, and he began to focus his mind on the supernatural powers, which was the main thing.

"Those with supernatural powers should have great power. Hope you don't let me down. Fang Yue thought silently in his heart.
