Chapter 39 Words as Rituals

After seeing that Li Changan had a new understanding of spirit beasts and their attributes and skills, everyone in the conference room was still very satisfied.

It's easy to explain to a smart person.

If it's like Baizhu......

At this moment, she was standing beside Li Changan, her tightly knit brows and her face full of distress formed a stark contrast with the sudden appearance on Li Changan's face.

In fact, for most spirit masters, it is enough to be able to study their own spirit beasts, and the rest can be dabbled a little.

For example, the fat man Teng Hongrui.

Although he didn't know much, he crossed his arms with a calm face.

Doesn't matter.

Anyway, it's useless for him to know so much, no matter what opponent he faces, it's a matter of brute force orangutan.

If not, two hammers.

Rather than knowing this knowledge, he wanted to team up with Li Changan.

The current Li Changan is the best assistant in his eyes.

Not one of them.

"Fatty, you continue to follow up on the task of the 'old grandmother' last time. Lao Cao and Lao He, there is a new commission, you two just go to investigate and understand the situation first.

As for Li Changan...... Your first task is to decipher the ancient texts on those photos, analyze the situation of the corpse with your mother-in-law, and write an evaluation report. ”

When Cao Xinsheng was almost finished, Ran Swordfish rearranged the task.

"Understood."

"Delegate?"

However, when he heard this word, Li Changan was a little surprised.

"The obligation of our Tranquility Society is to be responsible for dealing with the accidents caused by the spirit beasts, and at the same time to avoid some possible spirit animal accidents, these are all the work arranged by the above, and we can also get a certain bonus from the above."

He Yongnan walked outside the door, and when he passed by Li Changan's side, he patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Of course, if we deal with these things all the time, it will inevitably make some people recognize us, especially some powerful people. So when these people are in trouble, they may entrust us to investigate the situation or even deal with it. ”

Cao Xinsheng also walked up, holding a thermos cup in his hand.

"So without affecting the tasks arranged above, we will also take on some private work, and get paid even more than the above."

He glanced Li Changan up and down, and continued:

"You know, rich people don't care about breaking the bank. And we, too, get what we want. Whether it's raising a family or cultivating spirit beasts, no one will be too short of money. ”

Li Changan blinked.

No wonder they are so busy.

Let's just say it.

No matter how many spirit beast incidents occurred in a huge Yangcheng, it would be impossible for a group of them to go around in a row, so busy that they couldn't find the north.

Moreover, Yangcheng is not only their quiet meeting, but also the pale painting scroll.

It's no wonder that Granny Gu would say before, if you are not poor, who would want to join an organization like the Tranquility Society, which is in danger at all times?

It's not just about taking some responsibility on their shoulders.

At the same time, it also gives them a platform to make money.

"Chang'an, these are all acquiesced by the above, and many other cities' quiet associations have also done the same." Teng Hongrui also spoke.

At the age of Cao Xinsheng and He Yongnan, they are the pillars of a family.

Supporting a family and cultivating spirit animals inevitably requires a lot of money.

"Our division of labor now." Ran Swordfish added:

"I am responsible for docking the above tasks, Lao He is responsible for docking the outside work, Lao Cao is responsible for assessing the difficulty of the task and the investigation of some basic information, Fat Man is responsible for handling violent affairs, and Bai Zhu and Gu Granny are responsible for logistics.

Of course, if there is a more difficult task, we will also act collectively, and all the rewards will be distributed according to the effort. ”

"Then I'll .....," Li Changan hesitated.

"You're in charge of historical documentation for the time being, and you're getting used to getting involved in the mission."

Li Changan nodded, but did not object.

There is still a gap between his current strength and the strength of Teng Hongrui, and accumulation and precipitation are more important to him.

"That's right. The bonus declaration for that task in Ningyuan County has come down, you go to the bamboo side to get it. Ran Swordfish finally explained.

"Okay."

This was the end of the short meeting.

In fact, Li Changan really wanted to ask, where did their captain go?

But seeing that they didn't mean to mention the captain from beginning to end, Li Changan thought about it and finally didn't ask.

...

Leave the room.

followed Bai Zhu to her small warehouse.

"Whew-"

Returning to her "turf", Bai Zhu sat directly and comfortably on the chair, stretched out a long waist, and moaned.

"Li Changan, you don't know, don't look at Lao Cao's politeness, in fact, he has two children, a boy and a girl."

After stretching his waist, Bai Zhu suddenly became interested, and quietly leaned over his head and said.

Bulge out a "gossip".

"What do two kids have to gossip about?"

"Meow~~" (That's it.) )

In the face of Bai Zhu, Xiao Fan also behaved more relaxed.

When he was in the conference room just now, Xiao Phantom shrank in his arms and didn't dare to make a mistake at all.

"I've heard about it, it's just heard about it. Lao Cao's son was not born to his current wife. ”

As he spoke, Bai Zhu took out a stack of money from the drawer and slowly counted it.

"What does it mean to not have sex with my current wife?"

Li Changan, who heard the words, was also interested.

"Private~Birth~Child~"

Bai Zhu lowered his voice.

"So he can fight, work as a teacher at school during the day, and do tasks at night."

"What about Lao He? Why did he fight so hard? ”

"Lao He, Lao He's wife died in an accident, but there are four old people to support."

At this moment, Baizhu seems to have become a know-it-all for the Tranquility Society.

Li Changan shook his head.

Why does he feel that the backgrounds of Lao He and Lao Cao are reversed, which is more in line with his senses?

"Where's the fat guy?"

"The fat brother has a younger sister who is seriously ill and has been hospitalized all year round."

In such a comparison, Li Changan felt that the pressure on his body was much less.

"Well, you're paid for your mission."

Bai Zhu handed over a stack of money.

"Seven thousand eight. The total reward is 10,000, you are responsible for the investigation and part of the battle, and the fat man is responsible for the other part of the battle, so it is divided into 2,000. ”

"So little?" Li Changan raised his eyebrows.

"Meow meow meow~~" (so little, so little. )

I said this, but in fact, I was already calculating how many small dried fish I could buy.

"Less? I earned more than 7,000 in three or four days, which is a lot. After all, we're only paid much. And this task is not very difficult. ”

"No, I mean, that's all the fat brother?" Li Changan waved his hand.

"We all distribute it in this way, and you can rest assured that no one will have trouble with the money." Bai Zhu didn't think there was a problem.

...

Back to the library.

Li Changan directly made a floor shop and decided to spend it here.

He was not only trying to parse the ancient characters on the photographs, but also to decipher the content of the "Shadow Extension" skill in the black leather manual.

Of course.

If he could, he would actually like to know more about the evolution of spirit beasts and see if his guess of another feature of the Black Leather Manual was accurate.

Looking at the books crammed into the shelves of the library room, Li Changan didn't know where to start for a while.

"The Evolution of Ancient Scripts" and "Interpretation of Hieroglyphs...... It should also involve this "Skill Guide, including Skills Learning Conditions". ”

Holding a pile of books, Li Changan sat in the corner.

"Meow?"

"Squeak?"

What about us?

o(〃'▽'〃)o

Li Chang'an Nunu mouthed, "There are so many bookshelves here, it's like being in the woods, just don't destroy it." ”

Whoa—

After a brief explanation, Li Changan began to read.

Although it was not early, when he picked up the book, he was completely immersed in it.

"This word is the same as 'shadow' above, and the precedent is ......'phantom'?

Condition: Reach ..... proficiency in the 'Phantom' skill Level 3? In ancient times, Level 3 was equivalent to the current B-level proficiency. Do the learning conditions even require the proficiency of the skills mastered by the spirit beast? The next word is ...... 'water', which is 'distilled water' 100 grams ......"

"Is it a coincidence that there is a requirement for the 'Phantom' skill? Or is it the skill feedback from the Black Leather Manual for my situation? ”

"Tsk, no. I have to go to the teacher's old house and borrow his books, so the translation is too slow. ”

"Gollum-Gollum-"

Unconsciously, Li Changan noticed that Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding were already lying next to him and falling asleep.

Pull a blanket over them.

Rubbing his eyes, he continued to look.

The more he learned, the more Li Changan felt the joy of history.

"Archaic scripts first appeared at the end of the Second Age and took shape at the beginning of the Third Age. Constructed by human beings on the basis of an already formed writing system, the first ancient scripts even possessed a certain power in their own right, which could be directly grafted with 'spiritual' power, so that human beings could acquire the ability to protect themselves......"

Well?

Ancient scripts, not originating from humans?

Is it that human beings construct it according to a written system that has been formed?

This is the first time Li Changan has seen such a theory.

Doesn't that mean....... Before the birth of human beings, there were already highly intelligent lifeforms?

In addition, it also has a complete writing system.

Or even that these words can be used to some extent instead of some special rituals and directly graft "spiritual" powers?

Doesn't that mean that the writing itself is a ritual?

Words are rituals.

This is not something that ordinary humans can create.

His biggest doubt was.

What about the existence of the original writing?
