Chapter Seventy-Eight

The cinnabar ink mixed with Liu Ci's blood was thick and bewitching, and she fell one by one.

In fact, Buddhism's six-character mantra "Om Mani Horn Mi Yin" also has a miraculous effect on breaking the evil exorcism, poor Liu Aci obtained the half-hung Taoist inheritance, to deal with the white tiger, in order to achieve immediate results, it is actually necessary to bloodlet to increase the effect, which is inevitably a bit overkill.

The blood of the Zhuji monk contains rich vitality, and Liu Cifu moved as he wished, drawing a "town" character in the form of a flame. The tiger represents the white tiger, the five elements belong to gold, and the fire is gold, this talisman is a success, and the gloomy library seems to be brightened up a lot in an instant.

Liu Ci walked out of the door, looked at the sky, chose the corresponding direction and ignited the character "Town", a small orange flame lit up at the burning place of the rune paper, the spark exploded, and the invisible qi wave stirred and fainted around - the cold evil qi was invincible to the power of the rune, and was wiped out, and the evil qi curled up in the hall.

Liu Ci chased in the direction of the escaping evil qi and walked to a small attic at the top of Building No. 6.

The dusty wooden door, with the iron chain that locked it, was covered with rust, and it looked like no one had entered it for many years.

"We didn't even notice it just now!" Lydia's tone couldn't hide the difference.

Liu Ci thoughtfully, "It's just a small trick to confuse, let's go, let's go downstairs first, and we still need to prepare something." ”

The inside of the library is now cleared, the man-made lake outside brings a fresh breeze, and the rows of ceiling-high bookshelves make it possible to imagine how many students were in and out of the place at the same time.

As soon as they entered Building No. 6 in the afternoon, Liu Ci and Lydia walked around the three floors inside and out, but neither of them could find that there was a small closed attic above the third floor.

The ladder that went up was next to a bookshelf, and it was not completely hidden, and Liu Ci felt that it was similar to the effect of "blinding the eyes", which confused her vision.

and Lydia returned to the place where the talisman was drawn, and Liu Ci drew a few more "town" characters without saying a word.

Lydia couldn't help but look up in the direction of the small attic, and Liu Ci had to do her best to restrain her emotions in order to calm down and draw talismans. At about nine o'clock, the horizon of the Amster Mountains completely swallowed up the remnants of the setting sun, and the only source of light in the empty Library of Building Six was the candlestick on the table.

In order to protect the old books stored in the library, once you cross the gate, there is no wind in Building 6.

As the night deepened, the candlesticks on the table fluttered without wind, and the candle flame added a mystery to the quiet Building No. 6.

The shadows of Liu Ci and Lydia were projected on the bookshelf, and the candle flame moved, and the shadows were also shaking, always giving Lydia the feeling that there was some terrible creature hidden in the shadows. When Lydia was a child, she lived alone with her younger brother George, and when night came, she feared the legendary dark creatures the most.

Humans living in sunlight instinctively fear the night, and the environment reminds Lydia of her frightened self when she was younger.

Liu Ci drew a total of five "town" characters before putting away the tools for drawing the symbols.

"Let's go to the attic."

Lydia held the candlestick, and the two of them came to the attic room one after the other.

This time, Liu Ci did not hesitate to draw his big sword, and his strength cut the rusty iron chain on the door.

There was a clatter, and the chain wrapped around the lock fell to the place. Liu Ci pushed the door open with the tip of his sword, and with the sound of a creaking hinge, the dusty wooden door was pushed open.

The choking smell of stale came over the store, and the candlestick in Lydia's hand was blown out.

A cloud of phantom flashed by, and Lydia let out a soft scream, and a golden light suddenly flashed on her body, forcing the phantom back.

When she reflexively grasped the hilt of the sword and wanted to swing the big sword, the fire flashed, and the surroundings suddenly became bright.

Liu Ci held a paper talisman between her fingers, and the flames came out of her fingertips, about half a foot high, strange but did not burn Liu Ci's fingers.

Lydia was already surprised by her new "scrolls" with different effects, and as for whether Liu Ci was using magic scrolls or not, the clever female captain didn't want to delve into it.

When Lydia re-lit the candlestick, Liu Ci posted a "town" character on the candlestick, and the candlelight that was originally a little flickering was immediately as stable as a mountain.

"Don't be afraid, that thing is gone."

Liu Ci waited for the disturbed dust in the room to settle before he took the lead and walked in.

She didn't tell a lie to appease Lydia, the phantom did leave, and Liu Ci didn't feel the slightest evil in the attic room now. The unknown existence is also smart, and it even picks the weakest Lydia to attack, fortunately there is a golden light rune to block it, otherwise I really don't know what will happen.

Lydia was shocked, but Liu Ci had already entered the room, and she stood alone outside the door and felt that there was a yin wind everywhere.

They hurriedly followed, and the light brought by the candlestick made the two of them see the situation in the room clearly.

Wooden shelves and drawing boards, a mess of tables and chairs, obscured the walls around the room.

There is a window on the pitched roof of the attic, inlaid with transparent glass, covered with a thick layer of ash, so that people cannot get a glimpse of the stars and moon in the sky.

Liu Ci closed his eyes and felt carefully for a while, and the "evil qi" that seemed to be absent seemed to be disturbed by the two of them, and now he completely lost his trace.

Holding back the choking dust, she picked up the drawing board on the ground to check.

Brushing away the accumulated dust, the dirty painting paper was revealed, and it was barely visible that it was a small portrait of a person. Looking at the layers of dresses, the person in the painting should be a woman, but unfortunately I can only imagine her face from the thick curls like seaweed and the hands folded on her chest—the part of her face is eroded by some spilled drink, and she is completely dizzy, and her facial features cannot be seen clearly.

Liu Ci picked up the paintings on the ground one by one.

By the time her hands were covered in a thick layer of dust, the paintings had been almost cleaned.

Although Liu Ci was unable to find a complete painting due to the age of the paintings and the poor preservation, from the posture and style of the characters, she guessed that these old paintings that were shelved in the attic room were not only the same author, but also the women in the paintings.

Who littered these paintings in the attic room of the library's sixth building?

Did everything she saw have anything to do with the singing that would ring out in the middle of the night?

Liu Ci was about to exchange opinions with Lydia and ask if there were any related legends in the Magic Continent, but Lydia looked lost and confused, listening to something.

"Lydia, what's wrong with you?" Liu Ci shouted, and his voice unconsciously brought some spiritual power, waking up the confused Lydia.

"Shhhh

What to listen to?

Liu Ci didn't speak, and only the sound of her and Lydia's breathing could be heard in the attic room.

It turned out that a bell came from a distance, and it struck three times at once. Each time it was a full twelve, it turned out that twelve o'clock in the middle of the night had arrived unconsciously.

Bang –

The wooden door that had been cut off by Liu Ci was suddenly shut.

There was dead silence in the room, and the wind swept in from nowhere, trying to extinguish the candle in Lydia's hand.

The character "town" pasted on the candlestick is as steady as Mount Tai, and the red glory covers the candlestick, so that the wind cannot succeed.

Liu Ci secretly thought that there is a saying in China that midnight is the middle of the day to the yin point, the solitary yin is not long, and there is a trace of yang. When the rooster crows and the sun jumps out of the horizon again, the sun completely overwhelms the yin, and all ghosts lose the best opportunity to move.

All they can rely on is the hours from the hour to the dawn.

As long as he can survive these few hours tonight, Liu Ci swears that he will sweep every corner of the attic tomorrow, so that there is nowhere to hide that strange thing!

Tomorrow is still early, and now Tempest sees that he can't extinguish the candlestick in Lydia's hand, and he also gives up some kind of plan.

The sky was full of dust, and the sloping windows barely leaked a little starlight.

In the free dust, there was a thin song from all directions.

From small to large, the songs are probably the folk songs of the Amster area, and they are all blue skies, mountains, white clouds, and cows and horses.

The sound was pure and clear, like an endless grassland under the blue sky and white clouds.

It is like the snow water that melts at the beginning of the mountains, washing away the filth of people's hearts.

It's like heaven and earth intertwining, ringing, heavenly sounds.

The character of "Town", which can break the evil, does not react, because there is no trace of obscure evil in the song.

Liu Ci listened attentively, and Lydia, who was holding the candlestick, had already burst into tears.

Tears slid down her cheeks, washing Lydia's dusty cheeks out of tears, this female swordsman who could lead the team in the Moroch Mountains to pan for gold, her expression was softer than ever, and she seemed to have found the most peaceful joy in this life—
