After participating in the metaphysical variety show, I exploded
Chapter 060 The Sealed Porcelain Vase
"Ah Xiaole, thank you for making a special trip."
School of Archeology and Museology, Lujiang University, at the entrance of the building.Professor Gu pushed his glasses, smiled and waved to the young man who was walking towards him.
"No, thank you, Professor Gu, I need to bother you at this late hour."
Le Qinian immediately contacted Professor Gu after receiving Tang Yucheng's call.The other party said that he had some clues about the porcelain vase he was looking for, but he needed to come to the university in person.Professor Gu wanted to make an appointment to meet him the next day, but Le Qinian didn't want to wait for a second, so he immediately borrowed Yan Yu's car and driver and went straight to Lujiang University.He endured even motion sickness.
The setting sun is about to fall below the horizon, and the campus is full of students rushing to the cafeteria to grab a meal.Most of the teachers had already left work at this moment, and the building of the School of Archeology and Museology was so quiet that only the footsteps of two people could be heard.
Professor Gu pushed open the door of his office, turned on the light, and made an inviting gesture to Le Qinian.
The fluorescent lights flickered a few times before turning on, illuminating the small office.The office of the teachers of the Department of Archeology is not much different from the office of ordinary teachers. The desk is still occupied by a hill of various documents, the file cabinet is stuffed to the point of exploding, and even the window sill is ruthlessly requisitioned as a place for stacking folders. place.
"Sorry for the mess." Professor Gu smiled sheepishly.
He turned on the computer and motioned for Le Qinian to stand beside him.
"At present, the survey of Emperor Yongwen's tomb has been roughly completed, and some movable cultural relics have been sent to the museum and the laboratory of our university, waiting for further identification and cleaning. We found a lot of ceramic vessels, including many porcelain vases. But we can't find you. The kind of sealed porcelain bottle."
Professor Gu opened a few photos as he spoke. They were ceramic vessels that had been cleaned by archaeological staff.
"So...you haven't found it yet?" Le Qinian asked in a low voice.
"After all, it has been 700 years, and some cultural relics may have been buried under the soil and have not been excavated." Professor Gu said, "But when it comes to porcelain vases, I suddenly remembered a past event. Do you still remember the tomb of Emperor Yongwen? Was it stolen years ago?"
Le Qinian nodded.He also encountered the undead of the tomb robber in the tomb.
"At that time, there were three tomb robbers, two died accidentally during the tomb robbery, and their remains were found in the tomb. The other escaped with the stolen cultural relics and was caught by the police when they sold the stolen goods. The police found my mentor and went to Appraisal of cultural relics, and attend the interrogation as a consultant by the way. I also followed the instructor and saw the tomb robber."
"I remember that tomb robber died suddenly, right?" Le Qinian said.
"Yes, during the interrogation."
Recalling the weird scene at that time, even after 20 years, Professor Gu couldn't help shivering.
"At that time, everyone hoped that the tomb robber would reveal the location of the tomb and his trading partner, and they didn't care about other things he said. It wasn't until I heard that you were looking for a porcelain bottle not long ago that I remembered that the tomb robber had mentioned about the porcelain bottle. .”
Professor Gu clicked on another video file. "This is the video of the interrogation at that time. It is reasonable to say that it should be kept secret. This time I will show you a special look for your sake. You must not leak it."
Le Qinian made a movement of zipping his mouth. "I'll keep my mouth shut."
Professor Gu pressed the play button.
In the center of the picture sits a man wearing an orange vest and a crew-shaven head, who must be a grave robber.A man outside the screen asked sternly: "How many cultural relics did you steal?"
The tomb robber replied fearfully: "Six, six. No, there are seven in total. One of the porcelain bottles was broken on the way. I thought it was worthless, so I threw it away..."
As if struck by lightning, Le Qinian rushed to the computer, dragged the progress bar back to its original position, and played the video again.
"One of the porcelain vases broke on the way..."
No matter how many times it is replayed, the sentence spoken by the grave robber has not changed.
The porcelain vase... shattered.
If the porcelain vase mentioned by the tomb robber was the one that sealed the soul of the evil man Wuming, then wouldn't Wuming have... regained his freedom?
As early as 20 years ago, he got rid of the shackles and returned to the world?
Professor Gu looked at Le Qinian: "I don't know if the porcelain vase he mentioned is the one you were looking for. Is there anything special about it? Is it some kind of special cultural relic, similar to the Xuanqing Bagua Mirror?... Xiao Le, what's wrong with you, Xiao Le?"
The young man stared intently at the screen, watching the testimony of the tomb robber over and over again, as if bewildered.Is it because of the light? Professor Gu felt that the young man's face was bloodless, and his peach blossom eyes, which had always been looking forward to the sky, were now full of fear, and the burning eyes seemed to burn through the screen.The knuckles of the hand that pressed the mouse were white because of too much force.Professor Gu was even worried that the mouse would explode if he pinched it.
"Xiao Le? Are you hearing me? Le Qi Nian?"
Professor Gu patted Le Qinian on the shoulder lightly.The latter's body shook violently, and he waved his hand away like a frightened beast.
Realizing that the person in front of him was Professor Gu, Le Qinian suddenly came back to his senses, panting heavily.Just because he was so shocked, he even forgot to breathe.
"Sorry, Professor Gu, I was distracted." He rubbed between his brows, looking as if he was still in shock.
Professor Gu was also taken aback by his sudden transformation.Isn't it just a porcelain bottle, so what if it's broken?It's a pity that cultural relics are damaged, but it shouldn't be so frightening, right?In any case, it was just a bottle that broke, not the nuclear reactor shell...
"Is that bottle filled with some very dangerous substances, such as chemicals?" Professor Gu guessed.
"Hmm...about the same." Le Qinian did not deny Professor Gu's conjecture.The vases were of course not chemicals, but they were dangerous.Let Professor Gu be so misunderstood.If you tell him that there are undead sealed in the porcelain vase, he will definitely think he is joking.And dangerous chemicals sound much more believable.
"I see." Professor Gu said.Emperor Yongwen worshiped Taoism, and the traditional art of Taoism was alchemy.Since ancient alchemists were able to invent gunpowder, it seems reasonable to produce some dangerous chemicals and offer them as treasures in the tombs of emperors.
If the archaeologists accidentally opened that bottle, wouldn't they be poisoned on the spot?Le Qinian is worried about this kind of thing, so he is very concerned about the whereabouts of the porcelain vase, right?
He couldn't help admiring the enthusiasm and vigilance of the young people.Recalling that I doubted his ability before, Professor Gu couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"But it is still not sure that the porcelain bottle stolen by the tomb robbers is the one you mentioned? Maybe that porcelain bottle is still buried somewhere in the tomb of Emperor Yongwen. I will go back and tell the members of the archaeological team to pay attention to the porcelain bottle. I found a sealed container. Never open it."
Le Qinian nodded. "Then please."
When he walked out of the courtyard, Le Qinian was still a little out of his wits.The thought of the possibility of ignorance returning to the world made his stomach churn.
The image of the "human gu pit" kept flashing in his mind.Dried blood, gnawed stumps and broken arms, white bones covered with tooth marks, rotten smell all over the sky, the man who used his sister as food because of hunger, but hugged his sister's head and showed a foolish smile...
They are all "great achievements" of ignorance.He deceived the ignorant believers and used them as experimental tools.If that kind of person is reborn in this era... Le Qinian dare not imagine the consequences.
Now he only hopes that what the tomb robbers stole is not the porcelain bottle that seals the soul of ignorance.But he always felt hopeless.He had heard of a theory called Murphy's Law in modern times, which was one of the few modern theories he recognized.
—As long as things can get worse, they will always get worse.Don't take any chances.
So let's just acquiesce that ignorance has regained freedom.How to find him?He has no entity, he can only possess a certain modern person, or find a puppet as his body like Teacher Manshan did.Le Qinian felt that Wuming would probably choose the first option, after all, the human body is much easier to use than a puppet.
The behavior and behavior of the possessed person will be different from before, and their family and friends will definitely find out the abnormality if they are interested.But with an ignorant mind, I am afraid that I will soon be able to figure out the temperament of the original owner, and imitate his words and deeds to deceive the people around him.
Not to mention that it has been 20 years since Akjyo regained his freedom.Finding the person possessed by him is harder than going to the moon.
Maybe you can use the Xuanqing Eight Diagrams Mirror?The bronze mirror can not only reflect the real shape of the monster, but also can be used as a divination tool.If it really doesn't work, I can only try this way as a dead horse doctor...
Le Qinian walked towards the school gate while thinking.
Suddenly, someone slapped him on the shoulder.
He grabbed the man's arm reflexively, and with a small grab, he fell to the ground.
"Ah, it hurts! Let go! It's me!"
Le Qinian took a closer look, and it was none other than Jun Xiuyan who was suppressed by him on the ground.
"Sorry sorry, I overreacted." He let go of Jun Xiuyan and helped him up.
Jun Xiuyan gave him a hard look: "What are you thinking about when you walk?"
"A major event in the world." Le Qinian replied sincerely.
Jun Xiuyan: "..." We haven't seen each other for a few days, why does this kid seem to have a second-grade middle school illness?
"What are you doing here?" he asked angrily.
"I have something to do with Professor Gu from the Department of Archeology." Le Qinian answered absent-mindedly, "What about you?"
"...I'm a student here!" Jun Xiuyan had never heard such an outrageous question in his life.
Le Qinian studied his face.Jun Xiuyan is a descendant of Jun Niyun, a Taoist disciple whose roots are upright and Miaohong, if you ask him to help find and fight against ignorance, wouldn't it be like adding wings to a tiger?
But Jun Xiuyan is still young, so I am afraid that he is not a match for the crazy people like Wuming.In case something happens to him, how can Le Qinian be worthy of the spirit of his junior brother?
Besides, asking for help from the Jun family meant that he had to confess his identity.Unless it is absolutely necessary, Le Qinian does not want to expose himself (although Vincenzo has already guessed that it is close to ten), and he does not want to involve other people.
The reason why ignorance is able to escape to this day is all because he did not eliminate the evil back then.The injustice of the previous life will be settled by him.
Jun Xiuyan got a little hairy from Le Qinian's stare. "...What's that expression on your face? Do you think I'm lying to you?"
Le Qinian made up his mind: "No, no, Jun Daoyou is well-educated and rich, and it is definitely not a problem to be admitted to Lujiang University."
Jun Xiuyan took out his meal card and showed the photo on it: "See! Student card!"
"I've said that I don't doubt Fellow Daoist Jun..."
"Obviously I'm suspicious!" Jun Xiuyan said angrily.
He was rushing to the cafeteria when he unexpectedly ran into Le Qinian on the way.He remembered that Le Qinian was very obsessed with eating. During the live broadcast in Qinghe Town, he ate and ate all the way, almost turning the reality show into a food show.Now it's time for dinner, Le Qinian stared at him without saying a word just now, was he implying that he invited himself to dinner?
"Cough, what?" Jun Xiuyan's eyes shifted, "I'm going to the cafeteria, do you want to come with me? I'm treating you."
"Thank you Jun Daoyou for your kindness, but the family is waiting for me to go back and have dinner. Let's try your school's food next time."
Jun Xiuyan: "..."
He watched Le Qinian walk out of the school gate.A Rolls-Royce Cullinan drove over and stopped in front of the young man.
Some students noticed Le Qinian. "Who is the Shaman King" is now popular in Lujiang University, and every contestant has more or less fans, not to mention Le Qinian, who has repeatedly topped the popularity voting champion.Someone recognized him immediately and kept taking pictures of his back.
"It's the year of Le Qi! My God, Le Qi is coming to our school! Ahhh, my life is worth it!"
"Wow, his car is a Rolls-Royce! How many Rolls-Royces are there in Lujiang City! Are celebrities so rich?"
Le Qinian ignored the excited eyes of the students, got into the car and drove away.
The photos of him showing up at Lujiang University were immediately posted online by the students.Celebrity street photography is commonplace, but there are always some people with sharp eyes who seem to be possessed by Leeuwenhoek, who can find some clues that ordinary people ignore from seemingly ordinary street photography.
A few minutes later, someone posted a comparison photo on Weibo. On one side was a photo of Le Qinian riding on Cullinan, and on the other side was a photo of Yan Yu getting off from Cullinan.Through the comparison of the model and the license plate, the blogger came to an astonishing conclusion—the car owned by Le Qinian is Yan Yu's usual car!
[Le Qinian, why are you wearing Pinru's clothes?Ah no, why do you want to drive Pinru's car?What is the relationship between you and Pinru? ! 】
[Bai Le girl is crying.I thought I was smoking a steel aircraft carrier, but who knew I was smoking the Titanic...]
[But Yan Le is also a little addicted, what's going on? 】
Chenxi Media's public opinion monitors quickly discovered this Weibo and contacted Tang Yucheng immediately.
"Brother Tang, do you want to clarify?"
Looking at the comparison photo, Tang Yucheng rolled his eyes. "Need not."
Celebrities relying on gossip and hype is a common marketing method in the circle.Tang Yucheng was worrying about which company to cooperate with, and to find an artist who also needed hype to partner with Le Qinian.It's good now, he doesn't need to do anything, and a ready-made scandal object comes from the sky, and he is also a well-known director in the circle.There are such good things in the world, Tang Yucheng almost woke up laughing from his dreams.
"Fry, keep frying!" He ordered, "Buy me hot search, buy navy, if this matter doesn't make headlines, no one will even think about leaving get off work!"
- fresh and pure like a flower
Le Qinian, who was still ignorant of this matter, returned to Yan Yu's villa, greeted Butler Li listlessly, and walked into the restaurant.
Yan Yu was already sitting at the dining table, but he didn't move a single chopstick from the table full of dishes, obviously planning to wait for Le Qinian to come back before eating.
"What does Lujiang University want from you?" He asked.
"... about the archaeological team." Le Qinian slumped on the chair and sighed deeply.
"Not going well?" Yan Yu raised his eyebrows.
Le Qinian shook his head: "Not really."
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Yan Yu didn't force him.No matter how much you care about each other, you must leave a moderate amount of personal space for them.Everything must be made clear, and sometimes it is easy to arouse the other party's disgust.
"Let's eat. Today's meal is a celebration feast."
Le Qinian's eyes swept over a table of feast.Almost all meat.If it was yesterday, tears would have gushed from the corner of his mouth long ago.But the last thing he wanted to see today was meat.
It will remind him of the hellish scene in the Human Gu Pit.
Enduring the discomfort in his stomach, he bite the bullet and ate the vegetarian dishes twice, only to find that he had lost even the last bit of his appetite.
Of course, his abnormality cannot escape Yan Yu's eyes.
"Not to your taste?" Yan Yu was surprised.
"Today... I really don't have any appetite." Le Qinian stood up while supporting the dining table, "I'm going back to my room first."
After speaking, he left the table clutching his stomach and went straight to the bedroom.
Not only Yan Yu, but also Butler Li next to him opened his mouth in surprise.
When he was in the hospital, the performance of the young man was normal.Why did he seem to be a different person after going to Lujiang University?Le Qinian, who is the ultimate rice cooker, is not interested in cooking anymore. My God, is the end of the world coming?
Yan Yu frowned slightly, and told Steward Li: "Who is the driver who took him to Lujiang University, let him come here."
Butler Li didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly called the driver for questioning.Asked if Le Qinian encountered any unpleasant things at Lujiang University, the driver scratched his head: "I waited for Mr. Le by the side of the road after I dropped him off. I don't know what happened in the school. But... ...When we left the school, many students recognized Mr. Le, and they were all taking pictures of him."
Yan Yu immediately opened Weibo and searched for Le Qinian's name, wanting to see what photos the students had taken.
As soon as he glanced at the trending search, his blood pressure immediately went up.
#乐听年开凯玉的车#…What is this Dengxi? !
Since the brokerage company didn't press the hot search, it means that it acquiesced in the existence of this topic... No, maybe this is simply a hype planned by the brokerage company.
Yan Yu didn't mind any romantic news about Le Qinian.Rather, he was exactly what he wanted.What he cared about was Le Qinian's depressed appearance.Is Le Qinian so unwilling to tie up with him for hype?
Not happy to the point of physical nausea at the sight of his face?
Yan Yu's eyes flickered, he put down his chopsticks, and went to the study in his wheelchair.
Butler Li was left standing alone in the dining room, at a loss for a table that had not been touched.
Is the new chef... level this time?he thinks.
As soon as he walked into the bedroom, Le Qinian heard the sound of exciting music.
Altman is lying on the keyboard of his computer in the posture of a salted fish, watching a recently hit Japanese drama.Hearing the sound of the door opening, it waved lazily: "Ah, you're back."
Without saying a word, Le Qinian closed the door behind his back, walked towards the bed with heavy steps, and dragged out his suitcase from under the bed.
After returning from Qinghe Town, the suitcase has not been packed yet.He carefully flipped through his clothes, and took out the Xuanqing Eight Diagrams Mirror, which he had finally recovered.
You can only rely on it now.
"Mr. Manshan, can you turn off the sound?"
Altman pressed pause, and a carp jumped up.
"What's that? Tourist souvenir? What's not good for you to buy from Qinghe Town, just an old man's suit from a construction site?" It stared at the Xuanqing Eight Diagrams Mirror in Le Qinian's hand with disgust.
Le Qinian turned off the ceiling light in the bedroom, leaving only one desk lamp.Then he walked to the window, opened the curtains, and let the stars and the moon shine in the room.
"Mr. Manshan, you'd better stay away. I'm not responsible for any accidents."
Hearing this, Altman immediately crawled under the bed with his hands and feet, only revealing a curious and confused little head.
Le Qinian knelt down on the spot and put the gossip mirror on his lap.
"What are you doing?" Altman asked softly.
"How to do it." Le Qinian pressed both hands on both sides of the mirror, pointed his fingertips at the shock and exchange positions of the Bagua mirror, and stared down at the mirror.
Due to the long-term isolation from oxygen, the mirror surface is relatively smooth, and his face can be vaguely reflected.This precision is more than enough.
The Xuanqing Bagua mirror is a magic weapon passed down from generation to generation by his master. As long as you concentrate, the mirror will reflect the image you want to see.
It is good for finding things, but it is not so convenient for finding people.The more powerful the spiritual power and the extraordinary luck, the more blurred the image reflected on the mirror, as if some kind of interference has been received.Le Qinian once tried to make the Xuanqing gossip mirror reflect the appearances of his junior brother Jun Niyun and Emperor Yongwen Shenqian, but after trying for a long time, only his confused face appeared in the mirror.
The spiritual power of ignorance is of course strong, and the luck of evil is also a kind of powerful luck.Using the Xuanqing gossip mirror to find his trace is no less difficult than teaching a goldfish to recite a master's list.
Le Qinian didn't have much expectation from the beginning.It's just that I can't think of a better way for a while, so I can only give it a try.What if?
He concentrated and recalled the appearance of ignorance.
There was a ripple on the mirror, and his own face reflected in the mirror was gradually blurred, as if covered with a layer of white mist.
There is something vaguely visible in the fog, which cannot be seen clearly.
Le Qinian clicked his tongue.Sure enough?
"Call your name, and reflect your shadow." He recited in a low voice, "The evil man is ignorant, and quickly reveals his form!"
There are more and more ripples on the mirror surface, like countless raindrops falling on the clear lake.The hazy black shadow became more and more blurred, as if the more he concentrated, the more blurred what he was looking for.
"Reveal quickly!" Le Qinian pressed hard on the mirror.
Suddenly there was a dull blunt sound from behind.
Ultraman under the bed trembled, pointing to the closet: "It seems... there is movement inside!"
As if responding to it, there was a "dong" sound from the closet.It sounded like someone was hiding in there, banging his head on the cabinet door.
"What's that?!" Altman screamed, "A ghost? Is there a ghost in the closet? When did you have another ghost?"
Le Qinian frowned, put down the gossip mirror, flicked his wrist, and a talisman appeared on his fingertips.
He pressed his hands on Altman, signaling to the other party to be calm, and then cautiously approached the wardrobe.
There was another "boom".The closet shook violently.Altman hugged Zi'er at the foot of the bed and screamed.
Le Qinian grabbed the closet doorknob, took a deep breath, and then yanked it open.
"The world is natural, the filth is scattered—"
A piece of yellow talisman flew out of the closet like an arrow from a string, spun a few times in the air, and finally landed on the Xuanqing Eight Diagrams Mirror impartially.
Altman sat down on the ground. "I'm scared to death, it's just a piece of paper after a long time... I thought it was a Boggart." It patted its chest with lingering fear.
Le Qinian didn't ask what Boggart was.He walked to the Bagua mirror, picked up the talisman paper, and looked at the cinnabar writing on the paper under the light.
That's not his handwriting.Le Qinian remembered every talisman he drew.This spell did not come from him.
Strange, why did this kind of thing run into his closet?After coming to this era, the only Taoist priest he has come into contact with is Jun Xiuyan.He can be sure that Jun Xiuyan didn't give him any talismans.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered when this talisman came into his hands.
That was at Lanwei Hotel.Ren Ze, the mastermind behind the Manshan case, left behind this talisman paper after he fell from the building.
Le Qinian randomly folded the talisman papers and stuffed them into his pocket, but he forgot to take them out afterwards.
Why did he use the gossip mirror to search for ignorance, but attracted this talisman?
An extremely ominous guess jumped into his mind.
——This talisman came from the hands of ignorance.The folk alchemist who taught Ren Ze's technique was none other than Wuming himself.
School of Archeology and Museology, Lujiang University, at the entrance of the building.Professor Gu pushed his glasses, smiled and waved to the young man who was walking towards him.
"No, thank you, Professor Gu, I need to bother you at this late hour."
Le Qinian immediately contacted Professor Gu after receiving Tang Yucheng's call.The other party said that he had some clues about the porcelain vase he was looking for, but he needed to come to the university in person.Professor Gu wanted to make an appointment to meet him the next day, but Le Qinian didn't want to wait for a second, so he immediately borrowed Yan Yu's car and driver and went straight to Lujiang University.He endured even motion sickness.

Maybe you can use the Xuanqing Eight Diagrams Mirror?The bronze mirror can not only reflect the real shape of the monster, but also can be used as a divination tool.If it really doesn't work, I can only try this way as a dead horse doctor...
Le Qinian walked towards the school gate while thinking.
Suddenly, someone slapped him on the shoulder.
He grabbed the man's arm reflexively, and with a small grab, he fell to the ground.
"Ah, it hurts! Let go! It's me!"
Le Qinian took a closer look, and it was none other than Jun Xiuyan who was suppressed by him on the ground.
"Sorry sorry, I overreacted." He let go of Jun Xiuyan and helped him up.
Jun Xiuyan gave him a hard look: "What are you thinking about when you walk?"
"A major event in the world." Le Qinian replied sincerely.
Jun Xiuyan: "..." We haven't seen each other for a few days, why does this kid seem to have a second-grade middle school illness?
"What are you doing here?" he asked angrily.
"I have something to do with Professor Gu from the Department of Archeology." Le Qinian answered absent-mindedly, "What about you?"
"...I'm a student here!" Jun Xiuyan had never heard such an outrageous question in his life.
Le Qinian studied his face.Jun Xiuyan is a descendant of Jun Niyun, a Taoist disciple whose roots are upright and Miaohong, if you ask him to help find and fight against ignorance, wouldn't it be like adding wings to a tiger?
But Jun Xiuyan is still young, so I am afraid that he is not a match for the crazy people like Wuming.In case something happens to him, how can Le Qinian be worthy of the spirit of his junior brother?
Besides, asking for help from the Jun family meant that he had to confess his identity.Unless it is absolutely necessary, Le Qinian does not want to expose himself (although Vincenzo has already guessed that it is close to ten), and he does not want to involve other people.
The reason why ignorance is able to escape to this day is all because he did not eliminate the evil back then.The injustice of the previous life will be settled by him.
Jun Xiuyan got a little hairy from Le Qinian's stare. "...What's that expression on your face? Do you think I'm lying to you?"
Le Qinian made up his mind: "No, no, Jun Daoyou is well-educated and rich, and it is definitely not a problem to be admitted to Lujiang University."
Jun Xiuyan took out his meal card and showed the photo on it: "See! Student card!"
"I've said that I don't doubt Fellow Daoist Jun..."
"Obviously I'm suspicious!" Jun Xiuyan said angrily.
He was rushing to the cafeteria when he unexpectedly ran into Le Qinian on the way.He remembered that Le Qinian was very obsessed with eating. During the live broadcast in Qinghe Town, he ate and ate all the way, almost turning the reality show into a food show.Now it's time for dinner, Le Qinian stared at him without saying a word just now, was he implying that he invited himself to dinner?
"Cough, what?" Jun Xiuyan's eyes shifted, "I'm going to the cafeteria, do you want to come with me? I'm treating you."
"Thank you Jun Daoyou for your kindness, but the family is waiting for me to go back and have dinner. Let's try your school's food next time."
Jun Xiuyan: "..."
He watched Le Qinian walk out of the school gate.A Rolls-Royce Cullinan drove over and stopped in front of the young man.
Some students noticed Le Qinian. "Who is the Shaman King" is now popular in Lujiang University, and every contestant has more or less fans, not to mention Le Qinian, who has repeatedly topped the popularity voting champion.Someone recognized him immediately and kept taking pictures of his back.
"It's the year of Le Qi! My God, Le Qi is coming to our school! Ahhh, my life is worth it!"
"Wow, his car is a Rolls-Royce! How many Rolls-Royces are there in Lujiang City! Are celebrities so rich?"
Le Qinian ignored the excited eyes of the students, got into the car and drove away.
The photos of him showing up at Lujiang University were immediately posted online by the students.Celebrity street photography is commonplace, but there are always some people with sharp eyes who seem to be possessed by Leeuwenhoek, who can find some clues that ordinary people ignore from seemingly ordinary street photography.
A few minutes later, someone posted a comparison photo on Weibo. On one side was a photo of Le Qinian riding on Cullinan, and on the other side was a photo of Yan Yu getting off from Cullinan.Through the comparison of the model and the license plate, the blogger came to an astonishing conclusion—the car owned by Le Qinian is Yan Yu's usual car!
[Le Qinian, why are you wearing Pinru's clothes?Ah no, why do you want to drive Pinru's car?What is the relationship between you and Pinru? ! 】
[Bai Le girl is crying.I thought I was smoking a steel aircraft carrier, but who knew I was smoking the Titanic...]
[But Yan Le is also a little addicted, what's going on? 】
Chenxi Media's public opinion monitors quickly discovered this Weibo and contacted Tang Yucheng immediately.
"Brother Tang, do you want to clarify?"
Looking at the comparison photo, Tang Yucheng rolled his eyes. "Need not."
Celebrities relying on gossip and hype is a common marketing method in the circle.Tang Yucheng was worrying about which company to cooperate with, and to find an artist who also needed hype to partner with Le Qinian.It's good now, he doesn't need to do anything, and a ready-made scandal object comes from the sky, and he is also a well-known director in the circle.There are such good things in the world, Tang Yucheng almost woke up laughing from his dreams.
"Fry, keep frying!" He ordered, "Buy me hot search, buy navy, if this matter doesn't make headlines, no one will even think about leaving get off work!"
- fresh and pure like a flower
Le Qinian, who was still ignorant of this matter, returned to Yan Yu's villa, greeted Butler Li listlessly, and walked into the restaurant.
Yan Yu was already sitting at the dining table, but he didn't move a single chopstick from the table full of dishes, obviously planning to wait for Le Qinian to come back before eating.
"What does Lujiang University want from you?" He asked.
"... about the archaeological team." Le Qinian slumped on the chair and sighed deeply.
"Not going well?" Yan Yu raised his eyebrows.
Le Qinian shook his head: "Not really."
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Yan Yu didn't force him.No matter how much you care about each other, you must leave a moderate amount of personal space for them.Everything must be made clear, and sometimes it is easy to arouse the other party's disgust.
"Let's eat. Today's meal is a celebration feast."
Le Qinian's eyes swept over a table of feast.Almost all meat.If it was yesterday, tears would have gushed from the corner of his mouth long ago.But the last thing he wanted to see today was meat.
It will remind him of the hellish scene in the Human Gu Pit.
Enduring the discomfort in his stomach, he bite the bullet and ate the vegetarian dishes twice, only to find that he had lost even the last bit of his appetite.
Of course, his abnormality cannot escape Yan Yu's eyes.
"Not to your taste?" Yan Yu was surprised.
"Today... I really don't have any appetite." Le Qinian stood up while supporting the dining table, "I'm going back to my room first."
After speaking, he left the table clutching his stomach and went straight to the bedroom.
Not only Yan Yu, but also Butler Li next to him opened his mouth in surprise.
When he was in the hospital, the performance of the young man was normal.Why did he seem to be a different person after going to Lujiang University?Le Qinian, who is the ultimate rice cooker, is not interested in cooking anymore. My God, is the end of the world coming?
Yan Yu frowned slightly, and told Steward Li: "Who is the driver who took him to Lujiang University, let him come here."
Butler Li didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly called the driver for questioning.Asked if Le Qinian encountered any unpleasant things at Lujiang University, the driver scratched his head: "I waited for Mr. Le by the side of the road after I dropped him off. I don't know what happened in the school. But... ...When we left the school, many students recognized Mr. Le, and they were all taking pictures of him."
Yan Yu immediately opened Weibo and searched for Le Qinian's name, wanting to see what photos the students had taken.
As soon as he glanced at the trending search, his blood pressure immediately went up.
#乐听年开凯玉的车#…What is this Dengxi? !
Since the brokerage company didn't press the hot search, it means that it acquiesced in the existence of this topic... No, maybe this is simply a hype planned by the brokerage company.
Yan Yu didn't mind any romantic news about Le Qinian.Rather, he was exactly what he wanted.What he cared about was Le Qinian's depressed appearance.Is Le Qinian so unwilling to tie up with him for hype?
Not happy to the point of physical nausea at the sight of his face?
Yan Yu's eyes flickered, he put down his chopsticks, and went to the study in his wheelchair.
Butler Li was left standing alone in the dining room, at a loss for a table that had not been touched.
Is the new chef... level this time?he thinks.
As soon as he walked into the bedroom, Le Qinian heard the sound of exciting music.
Altman is lying on the keyboard of his computer in the posture of a salted fish, watching a recently hit Japanese drama.Hearing the sound of the door opening, it waved lazily: "Ah, you're back."
Without saying a word, Le Qinian closed the door behind his back, walked towards the bed with heavy steps, and dragged out his suitcase from under the bed.
After returning from Qinghe Town, the suitcase has not been packed yet.He carefully flipped through his clothes, and took out the Xuanqing Eight Diagrams Mirror, which he had finally recovered.
You can only rely on it now.
"Mr. Manshan, can you turn off the sound?"
Altman pressed pause, and a carp jumped up.
"What's that? Tourist souvenir? What's not good for you to buy from Qinghe Town, just an old man's suit from a construction site?" It stared at the Xuanqing Eight Diagrams Mirror in Le Qinian's hand with disgust.
Le Qinian turned off the ceiling light in the bedroom, leaving only one desk lamp.Then he walked to the window, opened the curtains, and let the stars and the moon shine in the room.
"Mr. Manshan, you'd better stay away. I'm not responsible for any accidents."
Hearing this, Altman immediately crawled under the bed with his hands and feet, only revealing a curious and confused little head.
Le Qinian knelt down on the spot and put the gossip mirror on his lap.
"What are you doing?" Altman asked softly.
"How to do it." Le Qinian pressed both hands on both sides of the mirror, pointed his fingertips at the shock and exchange positions of the Bagua mirror, and stared down at the mirror.
Due to the long-term isolation from oxygen, the mirror surface is relatively smooth, and his face can be vaguely reflected.This precision is more than enough.
The Xuanqing Bagua mirror is a magic weapon passed down from generation to generation by his master. As long as you concentrate, the mirror will reflect the image you want to see.
It is good for finding things, but it is not so convenient for finding people.The more powerful the spiritual power and the extraordinary luck, the more blurred the image reflected on the mirror, as if some kind of interference has been received.Le Qinian once tried to make the Xuanqing gossip mirror reflect the appearances of his junior brother Jun Niyun and Emperor Yongwen Shenqian, but after trying for a long time, only his confused face appeared in the mirror.
The spiritual power of ignorance is of course strong, and the luck of evil is also a kind of powerful luck.Using the Xuanqing gossip mirror to find his trace is no less difficult than teaching a goldfish to recite a master's list.
Le Qinian didn't have much expectation from the beginning.It's just that I can't think of a better way for a while, so I can only give it a try.What if?
He concentrated and recalled the appearance of ignorance.
There was a ripple on the mirror, and his own face reflected in the mirror was gradually blurred, as if covered with a layer of white mist.
There is something vaguely visible in the fog, which cannot be seen clearly.
Le Qinian clicked his tongue.Sure enough?
"Call your name, and reflect your shadow." He recited in a low voice, "The evil man is ignorant, and quickly reveals his form!"
There are more and more ripples on the mirror surface, like countless raindrops falling on the clear lake.The hazy black shadow became more and more blurred, as if the more he concentrated, the more blurred what he was looking for.
"Reveal quickly!" Le Qinian pressed hard on the mirror.
Suddenly there was a dull blunt sound from behind.
Ultraman under the bed trembled, pointing to the closet: "It seems... there is movement inside!"
As if responding to it, there was a "dong" sound from the closet.It sounded like someone was hiding in there, banging his head on the cabinet door.
"What's that?!" Altman screamed, "A ghost? Is there a ghost in the closet? When did you have another ghost?"
Le Qinian frowned, put down the gossip mirror, flicked his wrist, and a talisman appeared on his fingertips.
He pressed his hands on Altman, signaling to the other party to be calm, and then cautiously approached the wardrobe.
There was another "boom".The closet shook violently.Altman hugged Zi'er at the foot of the bed and screamed.
Le Qinian grabbed the closet doorknob, took a deep breath, and then yanked it open.
"The world is natural, the filth is scattered—"
A piece of yellow talisman flew out of the closet like an arrow from a string, spun a few times in the air, and finally landed on the Xuanqing Eight Diagrams Mirror impartially.
Altman sat down on the ground. "I'm scared to death, it's just a piece of paper after a long time... I thought it was a Boggart." It patted its chest with lingering fear.
Le Qinian didn't ask what Boggart was.He walked to the Bagua mirror, picked up the talisman paper, and looked at the cinnabar writing on the paper under the light.
That's not his handwriting.Le Qinian remembered every talisman he drew.This spell did not come from him.
Strange, why did this kind of thing run into his closet?After coming to this era, the only Taoist priest he has come into contact with is Jun Xiuyan.He can be sure that Jun Xiuyan didn't give him any talismans.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered when this talisman came into his hands.
That was at Lanwei Hotel.Ren Ze, the mastermind behind the Manshan case, left behind this talisman paper after he fell from the building.
Le Qinian randomly folded the talisman papers and stuffed them into his pocket, but he forgot to take them out afterwards.
Why did he use the gossip mirror to search for ignorance, but attracted this talisman?
An extremely ominous guess jumped into his mind.
——This talisman came from the hands of ignorance.The folk alchemist who taught Ren Ze's technique was none other than Wuming himself.
