Chapter 461: Surging Magic
"Oh my God, this room, it's been repaired. Officer Bacon exclaimed in surprise.
"I'm afraid it's not repaired, but like everyone else you've seen before, it's repeating, this hut, it's restored to its original state. Emily corrected.
"Repeat? Oh my God, my hair. Tess listened to Emily's words, and suddenly remembered that Xu Mo's hair, that hair, which was buried under the tree by Jerryn, was also the same as this room, and became the same as before.
Of course, it is not the hair that has become the original one, but the hole that was dug out, and the hole where the hair was buried, if the hole changes back to its original appearance, the hair will definitely be gone.
At this time, McCann's voice came from not far away again, and it was the same as when I first saw him, "Haha, man, you're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time." β
Then Zhang was talking and asking, "Do you have anything to eat?"
McCann said: "It's already ready, and there is wine, let's go, let's have a good time together." β
Officer Bacon said, "What shall we do? Do you want to greet them?"
Tess thought about the hair, and hurriedly said, "No, go and get that hair back first." β
"Okay. Officer Bacon agreed, and the group quietly left the hut and walked off into the distance. From afar, I heard McCann and Zhang talking in surprise, "Huh! Why is there so much food and so many chairs today?"
Officer Bacon followed the direction of Jerryne's buried hair in his memory, and led the group all the way deeper, after a while. He stopped suddenly, looked around, and said, "Right here, Jerry told me that my hair was buried in this place. β
"Where? what is the one with so many trees here?" asked Tess, nervously.
Officer Bacon recalled, "I remember Jerry saying that it was under a palm tree, and there was only one palm tree here, and if nothing else, it should be it." Jerion made a mark under the tree. Indicates where the hair is. As long as you can find the mark, you should be able to dig out the hair. β
"I hope so. Tess was clearly not holding out much hope, and in her mind, she was still worried that the hair would disappear with the change of the whole woods. Walk over to the palm tree. Squat down. Look for a mark under the palm tree. But she kept circling the palm tree, but she couldn't find any mark, and said in surprise, "Oh my God." Officer, you're really not mistaken, are you sure it's this place?"
Officer Bacon was also taken aback, and hurriedly looked around, checked the terrain, and finally said, "I'm sure I'm not mistaken, this is indeed this place." β
"If I'm not mistaken, why is the mark missing?" asked Tess, nervously.
"I'll take a look. As he spoke, Officer Bacon stepped forward, crouched down under the palm tree, looked for a mark, and had just turned around before he cried out, "Hell!"
"What now?" Tess was distraught and couldn't find the hair, which made her feel like she didn't know what to do. In fact, she herself is not so bad, and even if she does see a demon, she shouldn't be so afraid. But the blame is that she has been pinning her hopes on that hair, and now the hair has suddenly disappeared, and the psychological gap brought by it is simply unimaginable.
"Don't worry, Miss Acheson, look for it again. Officer Bacon hurriedly comforted.
"Looking, the marks are gone, how can you find them?" Tess visibly panicked, so much so that she couldn't calm down at all.
"Just because there's no mark doesn't mean there's no hair, didn't you say that that hair has a special magic that can save you? Officer Bacon persuaded.
"This ......" Tess couldn't help but move when she heard this, if Xu's hair really had the kind of magic she imagined, it really shouldn't disappear lightly.
"I'll take a look, maybe it's still buried in the ground. Seeing that Tess did not speak, Officer Bacon picked up a stick from the ground and began to dig.
What is different from what I imagined is that in this place, not only are the marks on the trees gone, but even the ground that was originally excavated has become its original appearance, as if it had never been excavated, and is covered with weeds and moss.
Officer Bacon took great pains to poke a few small holes in the weeds and moss with his stick to make the dirt soft, and then he reached out and pulled the dirt out.
According to Jerryne, he had wrapped it in a leaf and buried it under the tree, so as long as the leaf could be found, finding the hair should not be a problem. What we should really be worried about now is that the leaf, like everything else in the woods, should be restored to its original form.
"I'll help you, man. Officer Terry also crouched down and helped dig up the dirt from the ground from another spot.
"Be careful, man, and be extra careful once you dig up the leaves. Officer Bacon hurriedly instructed. The hair is wrapped in the leaves, once the leaves are accidentally opened, the hair will be broken if it falls on the ground, and it is always night in this wood, if the hair falls on the ground and falls in the grass, then a small hair is really not easy to find.
Officer Terry knew what Officer Bacon meant, and agreed, "I'll be careful, man, no need to ask." β
As he spoke, he picked up a branch and began to dig up the dirt on the ground, throwing the excavated dirt aside, carefully looking for leaves in the dirt.
The soil here is so solid that even if there were leaves buried under the soil, under normal circumstances, they would have rotted long ago. If they really saw the leaves, it was really very likely that Jerry had buried them, so the two of them looked very carefully.
Tess looked anxiously for a moment, then crouched down and began to dig. Even Emily went up to help. Corinna's expression was a little disapproving, but she didn't say anything more.
The four men dug at the same time, and soon a long trench was dug around the palm tree. At this moment, Officer Terry suddenly shouted, "I found it." β
"Where, where?" everyone was overjoyed. Turning their heads to look at Officer Terry, even Corinna's heart was filled with joy.
Officer Terry quickly reached out and held a leaf wrapped in it, and used grass as a rope to wrap it around the outside of the leaf. As soon as everyone saw the appearance of this leaf, they knew that it was man-made, so they cheered at the same time.
"That's it, that's it. Tess exclaimed. As he spoke, he took the leaf from Officer Terry's hand. Shine it with a flashlight. This way of wrapping is obviously because there is something in the leaf, and if nothing else, it must have been left by Jerryne.
"Open it and take a look. Officer Bacon urged.
"I'll help you with the flashlight. Ms. Acheson. Emily began.
Tess certainly didn't feel comfortable giving the leaves to someone else to open. A flashlight in one hand. It was inconvenient for one hand to untie the grass wrapped around the leaves, and heard Emily say this. It was exactly what she wanted, and without thinking about it at the moment, she handed the flashlight to Emily.
Emily holds a flashlight and helps Tess shine a light on the light.
By the light of the flashlight, Tess carefully opened the leaf, first carefully untangled the grass wrapped around the leaf, and then unfolded the leaf.
As soon as the leaf was unfurled, she saw that inside the leaf, there was indeed a black hair lying quietly.
When everyone saw this hair, they let out a cheer at the same time, and their mood suddenly became relaxed. Tess hurriedly put her hair in her hands. Her pendant had been thrown by her in the apartment, and after thinking about it, there was no place to hold this hair now, thinking about it, holding this hair empty-handed, she didn't feel at ease, so she plucked a hair from her own head at the moment, wrapped Xu Mo's hair around her own hair, tied it together, and wrapped her own hair around her fingers, so that this hair would not be easy to lose.
"Is this the hair?" said Emily, "is this the hair that Xu said could save you at a critical time?" Ms. Acheson. β
Tess nodded repeatedly, her hair was gone, and she couldn't help but feel a little excited, "Yes, Emily." β
"Lady Acheson, can you lend me this hair? I wonder why this hair can save you at a critical time, and what magic is there in this hair?" asked Emily, very politely.
"I don't know exactly what the magic is, that's what Xu said. Tess said.
"In my opinion, we should find out the secret of the hair in time before the demon chases after us, and only by finding out the secret of this hair can we compete with the demon. What do you think of my construction, Ms. Acheson?" said Emily, then asked Tess.
"That's a lot of talking, Emily, that's what we should do. Tess agreed, and then untied her hair from her head, picked up a piece of grass, and tied it to it, "I'm alone, I can't figure out the role of hair, let's help think about it, everyone take a look." β
As she spoke, she handed her hair to Alimi, who took it to her eyes and took a closer look, Xu Mo's hair had been tied together by Tess and her own hair, and she had just tied her own hair to the grass so that her hair would not fall to the ground and not be recovered.
Tess's hair, and Xu Mo's hair, are still relatively easy to distinguish, length is one of the aspects, the key is that the color is not the same.
Emily picked up the hair, looked at it with a flashlight, and looked at it for a long time before she frowned and said, "It's a pity, I can only see that this is an Oriental hair, and I can't see anything else." By the way, Oriental hair, is it all like this?"
"Not necessarily. Tess replied, "Oriental hair is not the same, some are thicker, some are thinner, some are straight, and some are curly. Xu's root is very in line with the characteristics of authentic Orientals, the hair is very dark, looks smooth, and does not curl. β
Emily let out an 'oh' and looked at the hair again, and saw that the hair did echo the traits that Tess had said, but she could not see the difference between the traits she had said and the others.
After thinking for a moment, he handed his hair to Officer Bacon, "Come and see, officer." β
Officer Bacon took it in his hand and looked at it carefully. Again, he didn't find anything abnormal, and Qi said: "If what Xu said is true, there should be something different about this hair, Ms. Acheson, how did he give you the hair, I mean, this hair was plucked from his own head, or was it taken out of his body and given to you?"
Tess immediately said, "This is Xu plucked from his head, it is true. I was watching from his side. β
Corinna muttered. "If it had been plucked from his own head, would a normal hair of his have such magical powers? Who is he? Or is it that he has a good relationship with this hair. Ever cast a spell?"
"Xu is different from ordinary people. Corinna. Tess heard Corinna's words. His brows furrowed slightly, and he helped Xu Mo to defend, "If there is a chance for you to see him." You'll understand, before I came out, I saw Xu use an ordinary small bottle to take a demon from the wall and put it in the bottle. β
"Oh, and such a thing?" Emily's eyes lit up, clearly interested in what Tess had said.
"That's what I saw with my own eyes, Emily. Tess said solemnly.
"Can you tell me more about that? How did Xu do that, Ms. Acheson. Emily continued.
"Absolutely. Tess nodded in agreement, and then recounted what she had seen at the time, and finally said, "That's it, it's an ordinary little bottle, but there seems to be a kind of suction in the bottle, which directly sucks the demon in." β
This situation is very similar to some myths and legends in country C. Officer Bacon said: "In those myths and legends, there are all kinds of magic weapons, the legendary Guanyin Bodhisattva, there is a jade bottle, oh, the function may be different, but in the 'monkey', there is a treasure gourd, as long as the person is called, the other party agrees, it will be put into the gourd." β
Xu didn't have that much trouble at that time, he just pointed the bottle at the demon, and without even asking the demon to agree, he took the demon in. Tess immediately added.
"This man...... It's really ......" Officer Bacon looked surprised with his mouth wide open, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Emily was overjoyed and said, "In this way, we are really saved." Xu can use an ordinary bottle as a treasure, and the hair plucked from his own head must have incredible magic. β
"But I don't see where the magic is?" Officer Bacon took the hair and looked at it over and over for a long time, and finally, like Emily, did not find any secrets related to the use of hair.
At this point, he suddenly turned to Tess and asked, "Ms. Acheson, did you really not tell you what you should do with this hair when I handed it to you?"
Tess shook her head in disappointment, "I didn't say anything other than this hair would protect me." β
"That's not going to be easy. Officer Bacon sighed.
Officer Terry stared at the hair and suddenly said, "Man, can you show me that hair?"
"Did you find anything? Officer Terry. Hearing this, Tess immediately turned to Officer Terry.
"It's not certain yet. Officer Terry frowned slightly, still staring at the hair.
"Be careful guys, don't break it. Officer Bacon handed the hair in his hand to Officer Terry.
Officer Terry reached out to take it, and as soon as his finger touched the hair, something strange happened, between his finger and the hair, there was a sudden flash of light, like a sudden electric spark.
This time, everyone was suddenly taken aback, and at the same time exclaimed, "Ah!"
Tess hurriedly said, "How can this be? Officer Terry, what did you do?"
Officer Terry said, "I didn't do anything. As he replied, he completely took the hair in his hand. As soon as the hair was in his hand, a shocked expression immediately appeared on his face, and Officer Terry exclaimed, "Ahhhhhhhh
The expression on his face seemed excited, but everyone couldn't guess what was going on for a moment.
Officer Bacon hurriedly called, "Terry." β
Tess continued, "Officer Terry, what's wrong with you?"
"I ...... I...... I ......" Officer Terry looked so excited that he could barely utter a complete sentence for a long time before he said, "What a strange feeling, I feel that there is a surging power in this hair, which seems to be full of magic." β
"How is that possible? Why can't we feel it?" Amid Officer Bacon's exclamation of disbelief, Emily glanced back and asked, "Could it have something to do with his current condition?"
Tess and Officer Bacon shook their bodies at the same time when they heard this, and the condition of Officer Terry that Emily said, of course, both of them knew very well, and the biggest difference between them was that Officer Terry was dead, and his current body was stitched together by some unknown force for some unknown reason, and it was only temporarily reborn, and this kind of rebirth was even very likely to be limited to this wood, once out of the woods, there was no need to even get out of the woods completely, as long as he walked to the edge of the woods, that power would disappear, and Officer Terry would disintegrateγ
Could it be that this change is really because Officer Terry is dead? That's why this hair is in his hand? But why is this happening?
Officer Terry heard Emily's words and asked in surprise, "What are you talking about, Emily, what has to do with my current physical condition." β
"Oh, nothing, officer, I'll just guess. Emily perfunctorily walked over and asked, "By the way, officer, what else do you feel, can you use the power in that hair?" (to be continued......)
