Chapter 72 Disagreement
The two discussed it, and it seemed that the time was almost up, so they took their backpacks and went to the restaurant.
The purpose of the meeting in the restaurant is to grasp the real-time situation, such as how many supplies are left, how many days the food can last, when will there be a third-party supply ship, etc.
After understanding, Li Jingxing found that the supply of materials and food is not a big problem for the time being, and the big deal is that there will be no fresh vegetables in the later period, but the canned food can still fill the stomach.
Even if the helicopter for the changing of the guard arrives late, the supply ship controlled by the foreign company will arrive in more than [-] days. At that time, everyone can return to land by boat.
The only thing to worry about is everyone's mental state.
There are many doubts about the disappearance, and the fourth seven days will come soon. No one knows what is going on, and it is inevitable that people will panic.
Li Jingxing originally wanted to stop the operation of the oil platform, but Wang Song disagreed and insisted that the oil exploration work cannot be stopped, and the shutdown would have a great impact on the entire supply.
Seeing Wang Song's insistence, Li Jingxing could only suggest that those who were not on duty that day should wear quilts and sleep on the floor in the dining room to take care of each other.
The platform is operated 24 hours a day, and the rest of the shifts are in pairs, and they are not allowed to get separated or separated. He and Xu Xu will keep watch at night, just in case.
After the matter is settled, everyone will be in their positions. Before the day after tomorrow, everyone will continue to perform their duties in their posts. After all, there will be many industrial steps in the process of oil excavation, and a slight mistake will cause serious consequences. It needs to be done step by step.
Li Jingxing, Xu Xu and Asi were the only ones who didn't need to guard the guard.
But Li Jingxing didn't dare to relax, the ghost village experience is still fresh in his memory.
He and Xu Xu made spells in the dormitory so that they could be used in the fourth seven nights. Asi also had the opportunity to participate in it, and he was busy until midnight.
Li Jingxing often walked around outside, and he found that the people on the platform were highly nervous at the moment, like a frightened bird, and the slightest noise would be extremely exaggerated.
Once, when he was inspecting the equipment floor below, an engineer's screwdriver suddenly fell to the ground. The sound made several people around jump a few steps immediately, and some even ran around with their heads in their hands.
It is comparable to the psychological impact of the aftermath of an earthquake on people.
Those who have personally experienced the earthquake will understand that because the landslides caused by the earthquake blocked the roads, people had to temporarily settle in a wide area and could not move outside.
Living and living in a relatively closed environment, people who have experienced catastrophe will feel a strong sense of fear when they look at the surrounding ruins. Their spirits are stretched like a rubber band that is about to split, and they behave indifferently to any sound.
But now this offshore platform is even worse. The legend of haunted and dead people is like a dark cloud, covering everyone's hearts. The vast sea is unaccompanied and more closed than the land. One can imagine how much pressure everyone has endured.
Besides, this has not happened yet, is there really a supernatural event, or is there another ghost?It is precarious, everyone will inevitably have scrutiny of others, and they are in danger.
Li Jingxing was leaning on the railing, his eyes were slightly squinted, and the sharp corners of his eyes were looking at the oil tanker that was drifting away.
The current situation may be worse than the earthquake.
No, even worse than Ghost Village.
"It really can't be worse." Xu Xu pointed to Asi who was bowing his head, and said, "I've never seen such an ugly talisman. Look, what the hell does it look like?"
As soon as Li Jingxing entered the bedroom door, he saw Xu Xu scolding Axi with a talisman.
And Asi stood on the side with his head bowed and his hands behind his back, looking extremely ashamed.
Xu Xu was still angry: "I asked you to help me and make trouble for me. Such talismans are pasted on the doors and windows. If you don't know it, you think it's a child's graffiti. It really dirty my Xu Xu's face..."
Li Jingxing stopped him and said, "Enough is enough."
Xu Xu was surprised and said: "Your requirements are so low?! Sure enough, there are no rules in folk Taoism. If I painted like this, I would have been kicked out by my master long ago."
Asi apologized timidly: "I'm sorry, I will draw again, even if I don't sleep, I must draw it well."
Li Jingxing pulled the talisman and looked at it for a long time: "I think it works, don't bother, just use it like this."
Asi stole a grateful look, because of this word of encouragement, his eyes were a little red.
"Heh, a Taoist priest who has always been indifferent can accommodate someone so unprincipled. If you don't know, you think you two have an affair?" Xu Xu's dissatisfaction was even worse: "Those who know will be even more surprised..."
Li Jingxing interrupted him: "Drawing talismans is just a procedure, what's more important is that we can bless the talismans, and use the power of our patriarch to exorcise evil spirits and bring blessings. Even if we don't have these talismans, we can still draw talismans out of thin air, and the effectiveness will not necessarily decrease. "
Xu Xu gave a short laugh: "Are you taking sides with him?"
Li Jingxing said in a low voice, "You are making things difficult for him."
Xu Xu stared at him for a moment, then turned around and snatched the yellow paper from Asi's hand, and said coldly, "Stop drawing, go back to sleep."
Axi nodded hastily, and ran off in a hurry.
This small battlefield didn't look very good, and a verbal battle was imminent, so he'd better go back to his dormitory and practice quietly.
Seeing Asi fleeing quickly with his tail between his legs, Xu Xu lost his anger, picked up his nightgown and turned his head into the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of rushing water came from inside.
Li Jing walked to the table, and his eyes shifted to a pile of yellow papers. Asi was indeed lacking in talent. Practice hard.
He picked up the brush and modified it stroke by stroke, and the talisman took shape very quickly. Although it was not as strong and lively as the ones he made himself, it still caught the eye anyway.
In this way, Xu Xu won't feel ashamed, Li Jingxing thought to himself.
Xu Xu came out of the bathroom refreshed, as if taking a hot bath had made him forget his unhappiness, and his expression relaxed a lot.At this moment Li Jingxing had put down his pen, stretched a little, and said, "Go to bed first, I'll go wash."
Xu Xu didn't speak, just climbed onto the bed, covered the bedding, and there was no sound.
Seeing that Xu Xu didn't want to talk to him, Li Jingxing didn't bother himself, so he stepped into the bathroom in two or three steps.
The steam from the bathroom hangs on the frosted glass door.Xu Xu stood up and saw Li Jingxing's beautiful silhouette printed on the door frame, forming an undulating silhouette.
He looked away, lifted the quilt, and crept out of bed to see what Li Jingxing had just written.
All the talismans were remelted and displayed neatly and beautifully in front of Xu Xu.
"It's really not upright, and the lower beam is crooked, and you actually help with homework? This stupid apprentice can still do it after getting started, and won't you help take a bath?" Xu Xu got angry, took out the lighter from the cabinet, and there was a crisp click, and all the talismans Burned in his hand.
Li Jingxing opened the bathroom door immediately after hearing the sound, and saw a piece of fire falling from Xu Xu's hand into the trash can, and the table was empty.
"What are you doing?" Li Jingxing was puzzled.
Xu Xu rolled onto the bed as if nothing had happened, lay down and covered himself with the quilt, and proudly said: "Exorcism."
Li Jingxing: "..." Why didn't I feel any evil around me.
Li Jingxing found that Xu Xu had spoken a lot less in the past two days, and he didn't like to joke with him anymore. It must be the fourth seven days today. As a metaphysician who can assess the situation, he knows how to be cautious. However, Li Jingxing found it difficult to adapt to Xu Xu. Xu, the "sparrow", suddenly stopped making noise.
"Are you a little too nervous?" The Taoist asked kindly.
The male sparrow was making the quilt obediently. Hearing Li Jingxing's question, he laughed twice, expressing his disdain, turned his head and opened the door, and invited, "Let's go, have breakfast in the dining room, eat enough and continue to sleep."
"Sleeping?" Li Jingxing was a little surprised, he just woke up, why did he go back to sleep after breakfast.
Xu Xu tilted his head: "We have to watch the night tonight, and we must make up for sleepiness during the day."
Li Jingxing thought it was good.When he was in Jiafenggou, Xu Xu couldn't stay up late, and always fell asleep somehow. The situation will be more dangerous tonight. He must have enough rest during the day, so that the two of them can fight side by side at night.
He followed Xu Xu out of the room: "You have a good rest, I still have to do some preparations."
Xu Xu nodded in agreement and returned to a state of silence.
Li Jingxing didn't talk much, the two ate in silence, finally finished their breakfast in the eerie silence, and started to separate their actions.
Li Jingxing was full of energy, even if he didn't sleep all day and night, he wouldn't feel too sleepy, but he was a human being after all, and he would always get tired after working for a long time.Taoist priests usually do this: close your eyes and recite the Qingxin mantra silently when you are tired. It only takes a few minutes to restore most of your spirit.
The Qingxin mantra belongs to folk Taoism, and it needs to be practiced together with health preservation.If the physical fitness is not good, no matter how high the Taoism is, it will not be able to control it.
Many people miraculously maintain the Taoist method of health preservation. In fact, the Taoist method originated from the laws of nature and the wisdom of the ancestors. It can delay aging, prolong life, and increase energy, but it has no effect on immortality or even more mysterious. Those immortal medicines are just people. It's just wishful thinking about being alive.
Xu Xu has learned Taoism systematically, but because of the different branches, there is a big difference between professional teacher transmission and ancestral transmission. He is an expert in scientific rituals and rules, and he can memorize Tao Te Ching more smoothly than his own name. He didn't learn it at all.
Xu Xu simply didn't want to embarrass himself. After sleeping in the morning and returning to the cage, he got up and had lunch, and then began to take a nap in the afternoon. When he woke up in the evening, he was really refreshed and happy.
He walked to the dining room with a clear demeanor, and saw that the inside was densely packed with people. Li Jingxing, who was dressed in black, was sealing the doors and windows with talismans, stamping every seal with his thumb, with vigorous and steady movements.
Asi was waiting at the side, and Wang Song stood at the side with adoring eyes, as if Li Jingxing carried a mysterious aura of a master in this move.
The others couldn't help, so they could only sit in the seats of the restaurant with different thoughts, and the doctor was also sitting in one of the seats with a huge medical bag.At this moment, he was staring at a person intently.
The person Dr. Huang saw was not Xu Xu, but Li Jingxing.
What an old rascal!
Xu Xu bumped into the dining table where Dr. Huang was sitting on purpose, and the other party recovered and stared at him.The two nodded falsely and exchanged a few words of greeting.
He walked to Asi's side, trying to imitate Li Jingxing's way of lifting him away by the collar.
However, the sky was unsatisfactory, and his move fell through because Asi was too bulky.
Xu Xu carried it for a long time, but the dark young man remained motionless. When Asi realized that it was time for Master Xu to let him go away, it was too late, and Xu Xu's face was clouded.
Axi immediately pretended to be thrown away, fell heavily to the bottom, got up and rubbed his neck painfully.
Xu Xu got angry when he saw this [-]-line black kid with poor acting skills, and grinned, "After this matter is over, I will punish you by copying all kinds of talismans a hundred times!"
The purpose of the meeting in the restaurant is to grasp the real-time situation, such as how many supplies are left, how many days the food can last, when will there be a third-party supply ship, etc.
After understanding, Li Jingxing found that the supply of materials and food is not a big problem for the time being, and the big deal is that there will be no fresh vegetables in the later period, but the canned food can still fill the stomach.
