I’m a Witch In Dongying
Chapter 268:
Perhaps some of them have fallen asleep with her in the bottomless black pool.
But what is left in the end are these low-grade instruments with relatively ordinary colors.
Especially things like Kagura bells and broken magic arrows are more used as ritual tools in sacrificial activities, but the role of combat is not very significant...
Bai Shuiqiu already has [Blue Resentment Wind Chime] and [Ming Lei Yu] in his hands, plus the two famous knives of Guiqie and Xuezou, which are completely sufficient in a short time, and there is not much demand for magical artifacts. After all, this thing is different from the talisman spell. It is not that the more you master, the better, but the principle of being less and more precise.
The value of a handful of ghost cuts can be worth dozens of inferior magical artifacts.
Therefore, instead of taking them over and putting them around to eat ashes, it is better to leave them to Chiyo for self-defense.
Of course……
Elderly people may not really use them.
As a result, Shirasuiqiu came forward to deal with the entrusted spirits that appeared in the shrine, and Chiyo no longer needed to do it. On the other hand, the effect of these magical instruments on the elderly is more as a souvenir left by Shirami Sana during his lifetime, used to see things and think about people. If they are damaged in the process of slaying demons, I am afraid that I will feel distressed again. It's too late.
"Oh well."
After Bai Shuiqiu declined, Chiyo nodded, put a few artifacts back in again, and locked the box.
Bai Shuiqiu said a few words with his grandmother, got up from the tatami, and carried the pile of soft leather in his arms.
"Then, I won't bother you to rest, grandma."
Chiyo has the habit of taking a nap.
So when Bai Shuiqiu got up, the old man just smiled gently, but didn't get up.
After helping his grandma to close the door, Bai Shuiqiu walked along the corridor, all the way back to his bedroom, and sat down at the desk.
First, I opened the drawer, copied most of the soft leather in it, and put it away, leaving only one copy in my hand-I said most of them, but these notes are actually three or four books in total, sixteen open. The format of each book is about forty pages, and some pages are still blank, so the content that can be recorded is far less than it seems.
Bai Shuiqiu stretched out his ten tender fingers, spread the soft-skin paper carefully on the table, and scanned it in a glance.
The font in the notes is very beautiful.
It seemed that it was very similar to the booklet Bai Shuiqiu got from Chiyo before. The handwriting on it was very similar.
Because it has been well preserved for many years, except that the ink on it has become a little lighter because of the long time span, there are not too many signs of breakage and yellowing on the paper. What's more, the content recorded in it is not only related to the formation, but also some essays about spiritual power cultivation and talisman drawing.
Even Bai Shuiqiu saw a few words similar to a diary.
However, judging from the timestamps of those texts, it is more appropriate to use "monthly records" or "quarterly records" to describe them.
In addition, there is one more thing worth mentioning:
It is in these few notes that there is still a faint ray of spiritual power. Bai Shuiqiu guessed that it may have been accidentally left by his aunt and grandmother when he recorded it that year.
From this perspective, these soft copy books can actually be regarded as a weakened version of the talisman.
Although it can't be used to cure demons, but if it is placed in ordinary people's homes and used as a town house object to ward off evil spirits, there is no problem at all.
"Enchantment, array eyes, suppression objects..."
Bai Shuiqiu muttered softly in his heart.
She still only knows a little about the terms of these formations, and she is a little confused when she sees it.
However, Bai Shuiqiu did not intend to master all the contents of these notes in just such a short period of time, so at this time, he is more concerned about the idea and wants to be familiar with the contents of the notes. Click so that you can know where to look first when you flip through it later.
After flipping through these dozens of pages, Bai Shuiqiu gradually became a little surprised.
She originally thought that her aunt was just a fighting witch who was good at exorcism.
But judging from the content of these notes...
Shirasui Sana's ability does not seem to be limited to talisman, incantation, and formation.
Instead, it contains a lot of miscellaneous knowledge, and even unpopular skills such as the art of contemplation and divination.
The so-called "comprehensive technique", to put it plainly, is Feng Shui.
This kind of thing originally originated in China, and it was mainly used to observe the earth's facies, to observe the flow of wind fields and water sources, so as to judge the good or bad of a place, and to select suitable places for the construction of houses and tombs. However, there are not many people who master this kind of magic on Dongying's side, that is, the group of onmyojis in ancient times dabbled a little, but most of them just tasted it.
As for the "shushu", it is to observe the "personality".
Simply put, it is fortune telling.
This skill is very common in Dongying.
But Dongying is more of a Western-style fortune telling, which is also done with poker, tarot cards, or crystal balls. It is also rare to calculate through the gossip of Zhouyi.
"I see……"
Bai Shuiqiu suddenly thought of something.
——I remember that Chiyo said at the beginning that Shirasumi Sana began to consciously arrange for her own funeral when she was about sixteen years old, and repeatedly used "want a younger sister" as the reason to persuade her parents to have another child. Bai Shuiqiu had guessed about this abnormal behavior before, but it has now been confirmed.
It seems that Shirasui Sana probably anticipated the fate she might encounter in advance through the method of divination, so she could plan ahead in the last two years.
but……
From this note, it can only be seen that Shirasui Sana had spent a lot of thoughts on comprehension and arithmetic, and he has dabbled in this.
However, the details of this part are not recorded in the text.
Therefore, Bai Shuiqiu couldn't tell from this information what level his aunt's grandmother was at in these two skills, let alone learned the mysterious magic techniques.
Talking about it...
Even if Bai Shuiqiu doesn't understand the inside story, he also knows that "fortune telling" is not a good skill, because according to the traditional Taoist view, destiny is basically a predetermined thing. Even if it is anticipated in advance, it cannot be changed. If you forcibly avoid it, it will only have a counterproductive effect.
Besides, if you know too much, you need to bear the huge psychological pressure. Sometimes you know a little bit less, but you will live happily...
"So let's study the formation method first..."
Bai Shuiqiu took a deep breath, calmed down, and slowly turned over from the first page.
Compared with the talisman in the picture of the gourd and the dipper, the entry of the formation is obviously very difficult.
For nouns like "array eyes", there is no big problem to understand from the literal meaning alone. The types of formations are mainly two types: seal and enchantment, one for the inside and the other for the outside. But specifically, there are a lot of special cares.
Liangyi, Sixiang, Liuhe, Bagua...
Different styles of formations and layout methods are different, and the suppressors that need to be used as the formations and the specific effects that can be exerted are all different.
There are quite a few places in which the thinking method of spatial three-dimensional geometry needs to be used...
Even, things similar to geometric figures and calculation formulas appeared in several places. It seems that Shirami Sana was using mathematical tools to calculate the best plan for the layout of the array...
It took Bai Shuiqiu an hour before he barely read the contents of the first three or four pages, and felt that his brain was not enough. Stretched, got up and did a stretch in place, then rubbed his slightly sore eyes, got up and turned to the corridor outside.
He stopped in front of the window in the corridor, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked out to the courtyard.
At this time, Hyuga Asuka and Kanako had cleaned the pile of dishes and chopsticks on the dining table, cleaned up the table again, and put on witch costumes and went to the courtyard to start business in the afternoon.
Because it is the weekend, the popularity of Tenme Shrine is still good. From time to time, several guests walk in from the outside, and the slightly hot summer breeze blows past the courtyard of the shrine, driving the surrounding stone lanterns and wind chimes.
Two full weeks have passed since the county contest ended.
It is already early July.
As the impact of the typhoon weather gradually passed, the rain gradually became thinner and the weather became hot day by day. Even in the shrine located on the mountain and surrounded by overlapping forests, the temperature began to be clearly felt. Variety.
Every day at noon, there will be buzzing cicadas in the mountains and forests. When listening to the ears, it is easy to make people feel impetuous.
As for another intuitive manifestation of the hot weather, the clothes worn by the guests.
During the rainy season in June, some of the guests who came to the shrine to worship at the shrine were still wearing coats or suits, but now, they have basically changed to thin T-shirts or shirts.
Even Bai Shuiqiu herself put on a half-sleeved vest and shorts.
Although she is still a bit hot, she is now a girl's body after all, and she always has to be a little reserved.
However, because the location of the shrine is on a mountain, even if it is the same hot, the temperature is always several degrees lower than that of the urban area with high-rise buildings, so you won’t get sweaty even if you bask in the sun for a while.
The scorching sun is in the sky.
Sunlight shines through the leaves and spills in from outside the glass windows.
Bai Shuiqiu raised a white arm and placed his palm on his forehead to block the sun. While basking in the sun, he took out a light blue talisman from his pocket with his right hand and looked down for a few moments.
【Light Charm】
This talisman was still the reward for the mission when I went to the park in Fuli City to retreat to the Wraith Spirit.
Compared with "Zi Wei Jue", the function of this thing is very simple and clear.
As the name suggests, its purpose is to give the body the ability to be as light as a swallow when it is attached to the body, thereby greatly increasing the user's movement speed during the effective period of the talisman. It is very useful when encountering chase wars and long-distance raids.
As for the length of time for the effect, it seems to be related to the amount of spiritual power injected, but to what extent it can be affected. There is also the so-called "body as light as a swallow". It is not known how light it can be.
Because there was only one, Bai Shuiqiu didn't dare to try to use it if it wasn't necessary.
However, the rune style of [Light Body Talisman] seems to be much simpler than the previous [Gold Talisman], so Bai Shuiqiu guessed that if he tried to copy it, he should be able to achieve re-engraving.
Bai Shuiqiu made up his mind and put the Fulu back in his pocket again.
After standing in front of the window for a while, feeling that his body was already hot in the sun, Bai Shuiqiu turned around and was about to go back.
At this time, I heard a crisp sound, and the row of wind chimes hanging outside the shrine rang.
"Are you coming again?"
Bai Shuiqiu subconsciously paused, then turned to look in the direction of the shrine gate.
Under her gaze, two familiar figures appeared on the outside of the courtyard. They were Keiko Kandairo who hadn't seen her in two days, and Ryoko in a small suit was also following him, looking like an accompanying guard.
Behind the two of them, there seemed to be two bodyguards in casual clothes, carrying a wooden box with all their strength, and walking towards the inner room of the shrine.
Both Hyuga Asuka and Kanako knew Keiko Kamishiro, so they just took a look here, and then they withdrew their gazes, and continued to be busy receiving guests from the shrine.
"Ok?"
What is that box?
Bai Shuiqiu raised his eyebrows in confusion, and the two bodyguards carrying the box stayed for a few seconds, but they had already begun to move their feet, walked a few steps towards the entrance, and appeared in front of Keiko Kamidai.
"Qiujiang, good afternoon."
Keiko Kashiro seemed to have heard the footsteps ahead of time, and was not surprised by the appearance of Bai Shuiqiu. He even raised a smile and waved hello:
"Well, I just bought some seasonal fruits at home. Because the weather is too hot, I am worried that I may not finish eating, so I will send half of it to you. Hmm...Is the grandmother-in-law at home now?"
Mime private 467
"Fruit..."
Bai Shuiqiu understood, and then glanced at the box in a bit of surprise.
At this time, the two bodyguards in black suits had put the box down on the steps outside the corridor. Judging from the movements of the two, it was obvious that the contents were not light, and it was estimated that there were dozens of kilograms.
Although I don’t know what kind of fruit they are, but at the price level of Dongying...
I'm afraid that this box will cost at least 100,000 yuan.
"This is too embarrassing..."
Bai Shuiqiu swallowed calmly, but he was still trying to decline.
Keiko Kamidai smiled and said, "It's okay, we are good friends, and Qiujiang, you and Granny Chiyo have helped our family a lot during this period. These things are just a little bit of heart... Every summer, my father didn't often Send some souvenirs here?"
"But this is too much..."
Bai Shuiqiu was still hesitating.
In previous years, the souvenirs sent by Keisuke Jindai were all in small boxes. Compared with the big wooden box in front of him, the size was more than two or three times different, and the price was probably even worse.
"Ahem, in fact, my family and some associations that deal in agricultural products have cooperated. These fruits are purchased at a discounted price below the market, and it doesn't cost much."
Keiko Kashiro glanced in the direction of the two bodyguards, and said half-jokingly: "Besides, we have all lifted things up, and it will be very laborious to lift things down from the mountain."
"Oh well."
After thinking about it again and again, Bai Shuiqiu finally nodded and agreed.
For Tenmoku Shrine, such a box of fruit is very precious. Even Bai Shuiqiu now has small savings on hand, but he still dare not spend money in this area. At most, he can buy a few from the supermarket during the weekend discount. Jin apples and oranges came back to relieve their greed... But for the Shendai Foundation, these were really just a drop in the bucket.
Given her relationship with Keiko Kandaji, there really is no need to care about this kind of thing.
After seeing Bai Shuiqiu nodding, Keiko Kandaji smiled slightly, and he beckoned the two bodyguards to move the box into the inner room.
At this time, Chiyo also came to the living room. After clarifying Keiko Kashiro's intentions, he was polite again, but in the end he was persuaded by the girl to accept the gift.
Before the two of them paid attention, Bai Shuiqiu quietly touched the side handle of the wooden box with his hand.
