Chapter Thirty-Eight: Campus Incidents (I)
Why can't you light a candle in front of the mirror?
Because it's called a "guiding light". Light two candles in front of the mirror, what does it look like? It is like two lanterns hanging in front of a door, so it is also called the "Soul Calling Gate", which is a passage to guide those things to the present world. It is common to light the candle in front of the mirror to indicate that the "door" is open.
As for peeling an apple in front of a mirror, it means making an offering. During the tomb sweeping festival, we usually put cakes and fruits on the grave as offerings. Although the offerings vary from region to region and customs, there is one thing that will not change, and that is the apple. If you are careful, you will find that no matter where you worship ancestors, worship gods, etc., there will definitely be such things as apples in the fruits offered.
Therefore, peeling an apple in front of the mirror is actually a metaphor for "I have an offering here", and it is not just a prop for playing the mirror fairy game. Of course, if the mirror fairy is really summoned, one apple is definitely not enough, and if you don't prepare other offerings at this time, then your fate depends on the mood of "them".
In addition, you can't peel the skin of an apple, and many people say that if you peel an apple, you will see something terrible, but this is actually not true. It doesn't matter whether you peel the skin or not and whether "they" are visible or not, so that you don't see "them", not you or the apple in your hand. As for why the skin is constantly peeled? The answer is simple, because cutting off the skin seems to "them" to be destroying the sacrifice to "them", which is a provocative act, and of course it will be very angry and the consequences will be serious.
In addition, you should not light a candle in front of the mirror and comb your hair, which is a "please go up" soul summoning ceremony.
Therefore, it is very particular to invite immortals, even if the exorcist invites immortals, they have to be careful, but now many people don't understand the doorway inside, and they have to mess around, and the final result is to set themselves on fire. Either get entangled, or just die!
Zeite put on a cinnabar mirror and looked at the mirror in the bathroom, and the world seen through the cinnabar mirror was dark red, which would make his eyes uncomfortable after looking at it for a long time. However, some things that are usually invisible to the naked eye, such as the flow of yin qi and death qi, can be revealed with the help of a cinnabar mirror.
And the mirror in front of me was now wrapped with a very faint gray mist. These gray mist are the so-called yin qi, which are invisible to the naked eye and can only be discovered with the help of special tools. Seeing these gray mist that were about to dissipate, the corners of Cai Te's mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, sure enough, this mirror had been used as a passage connecting the two worlds, which means that Xiao Yi's original ceremony to invite the mirror fairy was successful, but the price of success was to treat herself as a sacrifice.
One game, one life, is it worth it?
Zeatt sighed silently, and couldn't help but sigh that today's young people are really ignorant and fearless.
After checking the bathroom, finding nothing out of the ordinary, Zeat went out again to observe the dormitory. The dormitory is not big, with four beds, a desk in the lower bunk, a wardrobe and locker by the door, and a small balcony outside.
However, after wearing a cinnabar mirror and looking around, Chaite frowned, because this room was too clean, there was nothing, and it didn't look like a murderous house at all. For this reason, Zeite also took out a palm-sized finger yin compass to check it, and the magnetic needle on the compass also showed that everything was normal, and there was no abnormal magnetic field.
"It shouldn't be." Zeat touched his chin and muttered.
"Miss Cai, how is it?" Professor Liao leaned over and asked.
Zeat frowned lightly and asked instead of answering, "Are you sure it's this dormitory?" ”
"Sure, it's this dorm." Professor Liao nodded and said in a decisive manner. After a pause, he whispered, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Zeatt looked around again and wondered, "There's nothing in this room." ”
"Nothing?" Professor Liao was stunned and said, "Impossible, what about the bright lights and strange sounds that appear every night?" ”
"yes, that's the weirdest part. ......" Cai Te looked left and right in confusion, and suddenly found that there was no one around him, and said slightly stunned: "Where are the leaves?" ”
"Oh, the guy who came with you? He had just gone to the balcony. Professor Liao pointed in the direction of the balcony and said.
Xiao Yezi couldn't stay idle, and as soon as he came in, he touched and touched everywhere, acting like a curious baby, and he didn't pay attention and slipped to the balcony to play. Because he came with Zeat, Professor Liao couldn't say anything.
As soon as Professor Liao finished speaking, Xiao Yezi appeared at the door of the balcony, beckoned to the house, and shouted excitedly: "Caite, Caite, come quickly, come quickly." ”
"What?"
"Come on." Xiao Ye kept urging.
Zeat thought he had found something, so he walked over curiously. Professor Liao also followed suit.
When the two came to the balcony, Xiao Yezi pointed to a building on the right oblique and said, "Look, that house is black." ”
Black?
Cai Te was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction that Xiao Yezi was pointing, but he was stunned. Because she was still wearing cinnabar glasses and didn't take them off, through this cinnabar glasses, she only saw a five-story flat-top building in the distance, and the whole building was actually wrapped with a rich and undissolving dead air.
"I'll go!" Startled, Chaiter pointed to the building in the distance and asked, "What is that?" ”
Professor Liao glanced at it and said, "That's the anatomy building." ”
The Anatomy Building, as the name suggests, is where human anatomy classes are held. However, students privately call this building the Taiping Building, and in this medical university, the Taiping Building is also the place where the various versions of supernatural stories circulated on campus appear most frequently.
The anatomy building is on the old campus, not very far from the dormitory area. It is said that it was abandoned for a period of time, and then renovated and reused. The anatomy building was nicknamed the Taiping Building by the students because of the large number of corpses stored in the basement. For unknown reasons, the first floor of the Taiping Building has never been opened, and even the toilets on this floor are locked with large chains. The second floor is the teaching room, the third floor is the office and computer room, and the fourth and fifth floors are the specimen room. Because the first floor of the anatomy building was never open to people, stories about various eerie and terrifying versions of the first floor spread among the students.
The school has never come forward to explain the reason, so it has become more and more fierce among the students, and even many different versions have been derived. However, although the students of the medical university are more or less curious about the bizarre and strange stories of the anatomy building, no one dares to venture to test whether these stories are true or false. So today, this old building still stands in many rumors. But in the eyes of the students, it seemed a little hideous and terrifying, and no one wanted to go there if it was not necessary.
