Chapter 238: The Old Testament
Chen Xi carefully recalled this process and found that the energy of the flint was no longer a question of whether he was greedy or not, and it was difficult to control it at the beginning. If it hadn't happened to be taken away by the powerful Amut today, I was afraid that I would have been very miserable.
Can you let Amut practice on his own? If you let him keep it, and when the time is allowed, let him take the flint off, so that he can absorb the power from above without overdoing it.
Thinking of this, Chen Xi immediately called Amut, told him his thoughts, and then agreed on a time, and began to activate the flint again, and then used the alarm clock to remind Amut to take the stone down on time.
Through experiments, Chen Xi found that such a method was indeed feasible, but it was a little hard for Amut, and he had not yet discovered how much power had been transmitted to him.
The two of them excite the flint by stimulating the flint - absorbing energy - cooling the flint - digesting the energy - excites the flint...... Such a cycle allowed a part of the huge force energy on the flint to be transferred to Chen Xi's body, and he kept it for three days.
Chen Xi didn't hold on any longer, although the time of the past three days had been divided into I don't know how many, but he had finally absorbed a part of the power. He really had to restrain himself, otherwise he would become more and more greedy if he continued, and it would be dangerous.
Got a lot of energy, Chen Xi wanted to try it out to see if it was really powerful, but he didn't have the opportunity. In New York, there may not be many opponents of their own. So you need to wait for the timing.
On this day, Shellis and Chen Xi took out the Bible "Old Testament" to play with it, wanting to see if it would move around on its own like in the library.
They put the Old Testament on the table and sat quietly in the corner. See how it reacts from afar. Amut hadn't seen what had happened last time, so he didn't understand what they were doing, but he sat down with him.
Last time, I didn't have to wait long before I saw the Old Testament come out of the shelves by itself, flip through it by itself, and run to another place. But this time they waited a long time, and the book was still on the table.
"What the hell are you looking at? What's so strange about that book? Amut couldn't hold back any longer and asked in a low voice. But his whispering was enough to alarm everything.
Shellis was a little disappointed, "Could it only be that the magic of that bookshelf?" That's the weirdness of the book. Or is that bookshelf magical? ”
Chen Xi went over and picked up the book, and looked at the old Bible carefully, he felt a little strange. I couldn't help but ask, "Do you think it's a little abnormal?" What kind of paper is this made of? ”
Amut reached out and took it, touched it a few times in his hand, and said disdainfully: "What's so strange, isn't it just made of skin!" ”
"Skin?" Shellis and Chen Xi were very surprised, they had just heard of the ancient books with leather scrolls. I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes.
"This is the Skin?" Chen Xi took it over and looked at it carefully, "Our ancient Chinese books include oracle bones, bamboo slips, and silk books, and paper was invented in the Han Dynasty. Europe is far behind us. When we use paper, they use this kind of leather roll. It turned out to be just fun, but I didn't expect to get a leather book, which has a history of at least 1,000 years, and it will be a lot of money to sell! ”
Amut asked curiously, "Is the skin valuable?" In our time, we also used this a lot. ”
"The skin is not valuable, but the book with a history of more than 1,000 years is." Chen Xi carefully opened it and flipped through it, this kind of book is a rare opportunity to see it, hehe. Why don't you just have an auction with the Mona Lisa?
"Then you just stole one? I'll just help you steal a few more copies, and you can sell them for a little more money! ”
Shiris frowned, she thought for a while and said, "Don't sell it casually, I think this thing should be more than just an ancient book." ”
"What's so strange about that?" Chen Xi smiled and said, "Maybe we can sell it to the Holy See, or sell it to the Orthodox Church, their interest should not be lower than those historical studies, right?" ”
Shiris said a little worriedly: "Sampras said that the seminary is actually the base of the Holy See for training reserve forces in England, and the seminary is not far from that library, will there be a connection between them?" I'm worried about ......"
"You're worried it's a Catholic Church thing?" Chen Xi continued, "Whatever, now in my hands, it's my thing, who can prove that I took it out of the Oxford Library?" Without evidence, as long as I don't admit it, what can they do to me? ”
"This book is so weird, it must be something they pay attention to, if you insist on fighting with them, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble!" Shellis still didn't feel at ease.
Chen Xi comforted and said: "You don't have to worry, after I contact the black market, let them all be sold, let others keep them, and let them think of countermeasures." We're just making a little bit of money, and there's no problem. ”
Although he said this, he still felt that there should be some secret hidden in this book, and continued to look through them one by one, but unfortunately, he saw the last page until he saw it, and found nothing unusual.
"Hey, forget it, maybe it's just our hallucination, there are no weird books at all, or maybe there's weirdness in that library or that bookshelf." Chen Xi gave up looking for the secrets of this Bible.
Shellis came up with an idea, "Why don't you let Feller contact some antique dealers, maybe someone wants this kind of book, it's more formal." ”
Chen Xi laughed: "This book is not from the right way, where can it be sold in the right way, forget it." It's easier to go from the black market, so you don't have to worry about revealing your identity or who the buyer is. ”
Shellis didn't say anything more. After a while, he proposed, "Shall we take Amut out for a while?" Anyway, looking for Hades is not a one-time thing, and you have been trying to find a way but you can't find it during this time. It's been hard work these days, so let's relax. Take a break. ”
Amut didn't have any opinions, and he knew that finding Osiris was not something that could be done in a day or two.
Chen Xi readily agreed, he wanted to take Amut to meet the master from China, let him learn the spells of the Yiye Daoren, or with the senior brother, but thinking of this guy's strange temper, he still gave up.
Taking Amut out for a walk was just an excuse, and of course Shellis wanted Chen Xi to accompany him shopping. Since I came back, I haven't gone out to have a good time. Although Amut is a light bulb, no one can rest assured that he will play alone, and not only will he not be able to find it. And it's likely to get into a lot of big trouble.
After walking around the mall for a long time, Amut didn't feel impatient, he felt new to everything he saw. It's like a country man who has never traveled far away.
That's what it's like to go shopping with girls, and it's always them who are happy. Chen Xi just paid for it anyway, although Xuelisi was not short of money, but in the end it was her girlfriend, how could she still let her spend money?
"Miss. Is enough enough? Chen Xi, who was carrying a large bag and a small bag, smiled and said, "Please instruct."
Shellise smiled and said, "Let's go around for two more hours, and two more hours will be about the same!" ”
Seeing the tragic look on Chen Xi's face, Xue Lisi smiled again and said, "Okay." Just kidding. Let's find a place to eat! ”
"Let's wait for dinner, and keep shopping." Without waiting for Chen Xi to answer, Amut had already spoken.
The two couldn't help but be a little surprised, hasn't this guy seen enough? looked at Amut, but saw that his expression was very calm, without the slightest excitement of the fun just now.
"There are a few things that don't know how to live or die that are following us, and we need to find a place to kill them first." Amut said with a blank face.
These words surprised Chen Xi and the others, they didn't feel that someone was following?
Chen Xi was a little unconvinced, after absorbing the power of the flint. He was confident that he would be no worse than Amut. Now that he heard him say that someone was following, and he didn't even notice it, his divine thoughts immediately shot out, and quickly scanned it within a hundred meters of the surroundings.
"You can't see it, they're very well disguised, I can just feel the breath on them." Amut said lightly.
"Why is it only you who can feel it?" Shellis was a little curious.
Amut glanced at Chen Xi and seemed to understand what he was doing now, and he said softly, "They are some cultivators in Egypt, and you are not familiar with their powers. ”
Chen Xi had quickly inspected the people and things within a radius of five hundred meters, but he didn't find anything abnormal, and when he heard Amut's words, he couldn't help but be a little discouraged and said, "They won't all be as arrogant as you, right?" ”
Although Amut didn't understand the meaning of arrogance, he also guessed that Chen Xi was asking those people if they were strong enough for him, and he whispered: "Even in Egypt, how many people can be stronger than me?" Hmph, I don't believe how far they have grown over the years. "The demeanor is a little arrogant.
"Then let's go, get them as soon as possible, and see if those people are in the same party last time." Chen Xi said to Xue Lisi again: "Look at the more remote places in this area. ”
Shellise thought for a moment, then drove them around a few times and came to a quieter street. Compared to the prosperity of other streets, there are no pedestrians in sight, so it can be regarded as remote.
After waiting for a while, nothing appeared in front of them.
"They didn't come along." "They probably want to know where we live. ”
"Then lead them to the suburbs!" Chen Xi was ready to go to the suburbs to clean them up. [(m)Bulletless window viewing]
