Chapter 430 The Spirit of All Things
"How about it?"

After Aurora hung up the phone, Jiang Chanji asked.

She shook her head slightly, "Not sure yet, she said think about it and call me later."

"That's not bad. If you don't reject it outright, it means there is something going on." Jiang Chanji said.

Aurora was full of doubts, "Having said that...it always feels weird, I don't understand why she didn't refuse."

"There must be a reason for her, or she is just in a hurry, or her hands itch when she sees a powerful guy, I don't think you need to think too much, as long as she is willing to help, no matter what the purpose is, as long as she can complete the containment of No. 15 It's enough to do the task, we usually just pay more attention to her, I don't believe that she alone can cause some troubles in front of so many of us."

Jiang Chanji was too lazy to think about it, even if Leila had some schemes, as long as it didn't harm them, it didn't matter if both sides got what they needed.

"It has to be like this." Aurora thought about it, now they are asking for Leila to solve difficult problems, and they are not qualified to pick and choose.

"By the way... I seem to have heard the call of an orangutan on the phone just now, and there are more than one, one after another..." She wondered, "Could it be that she is visiting the zoo?"

"Perhaps behind others she is a person who likes animals, is enthusiastic about public welfare, and does good deeds without leaving a name. She is currently working as a volunteer with animals... This is the so-called cuteness of contrast." Jiang Chanji said half-jokingly, as a comfort Tell Aurora to stop guessing wildly, it's meaningless.

However, the situation of people in front and people behind does exist, and it is very common. Typical examples are the online world and the real world. In reality, it is normal to be a sand sculpture on the Internet with a serious face?

Sometimes playing a different version of yourself in another environment can help relieve your stress, or you can be one side in front of unfamiliar people, and the other side in front of your girlfriends or best friends. This is also normal, Leila and them Although she doesn't deal with it, she may be another popular character in front of her girlfriends...or on the other hand, after many serial killers were arrested, neighbors and colleagues expressed blankly that he was an honest man. People, who usually help neighbors and colleagues, how could they kill people?
In view of their unfamiliarity with Layla, especially Aurora's inherent prejudice, it is basically impossible to guess Layla's mind, so there is no need to guess, just take one step at a time.

Just as they were talking without a word, Aurora's cell phone rang, and she answered it instantly.

"Hey?"

"I've thought about it. Since my dear old sister has spoken, if I refuse, wouldn't it hurt our sister's feelings and make the rest of the family laugh..."

Aurora didn't believe a word, and frowned, "So?"

"I've talked about this, of course I want to help... But, I have a friend who may come with me, and she is very interested in something."

Aurora secretly scolded her for having a friend out of nothing, she must have wanted something, but pushed it to a friend who didn't exist.

"What do you want? Just say it, if it's too much..."

"Haha! How could I make excessive demands on my old lady? Actually, that friend of mine wants to read the latest edition of "Introduction to Extraordinary Abilities" from your school. It is the latest edition, including Volume [-] and Volume [-]. Getting this is great for you." It's not difficult, is it?"

"That's it?"

Aurora couldn't believe it. It's not easy for ordinary people to get this textbook, but it's no secret to the students in the school. It is said that there is a watermark on each page. If you take a picture of the page with your mobile phone and spread it to the public, you can trace back to who spread it through the secret mark. Moreover, when everyone is in public class together, whoever holds the mobile phone keeps taking pictures of the textbook, others can see.

The teaching materials are not allowed to be circulated because we don’t want ordinary people to see them and cause gossip, or for ordinary people to find loopholes to deal with extraordinary people, such as the iron law that prohibits extraordinary people from harming ordinary people without reason. This is like self-defense. There is room for manoeuvre, and once it is exploited by those who want to, it will put Hongye Academy in a dilemma...Of course, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. Many ordinary people have heard of this iron law, but after all, they only heard it and did not see it in black and white. .

"Of course, when will I feel sorry for you, old lady? Well, let's stop here first, the phone is hot, I will arrive as soon as possible, tomorrow... the day after tomorrow at most, see you then~ I believe old lady You can prepare the teaching materials before my plane lands~" Leila hung up the phone.

Aurora stared at the phone in her hand, as if she didn't recognize it.

"She agreed?" Jiang Chanji asked.

"That's right..."

"Then... did she propose any conditions?"

"There are conditions, but it's just a trivial matter. She wants to get a copy of the school's textbooks, and I can handle it. But she mentioned that she will come with a friend. I don't know if it's true or not..."

Jiang Chanji didn't care, "If you're here to help, of course the more people you have, the better. Anyway, it's all agreed, and we'll know when we meet."

Aurora looked at the time, her underground icicles have been successfully tested initially, although she still wants to improve further, but firstly, she needs to find teaching materials for Layla, and secondly, her ability itself is limited.

After her ice thorns were used once in a certain place, the groundwater had already frozen, and she would not be able to melt in a short time so she could use them a second time, because she used the volume expansion caused by the freezing of water to "squeeze the ice thorns" from the ground. "from.

Taking a step back, even if the underground ice melts in a short period of time, since the channel has already been formed, even if there is another process of freezing by water, the ice spikes will still drill out of the surface through the channel that has been formed, and there will not be too much space for them to appear on the surface. Big changes—just imagine, the enemy or beast will stay in place and wait for your second stab?
That's why she told Jiang Chanji just now that the ice thorns are like the electric arcs of Teacher Wang Yefei and the others. It is basically difficult to control the direction of the ice thorns. They will choose the soft and weak soil to drill out of the ground. , they will definitely drill out of the ready-made channels.

If she wants to try again, she has to change the location, so she might as well try here today, and talk about it later, just in time to think about whether there is any way to make up for this limitation.

"I'm going back to school now, how about you?" She just asked politely, because he came by flying horse and didn't need to go back in her car.

"Before Leila arrives, I'm going to explore the road and step on the spot first." He said, "We have roughly grasped the hiding places of No. 15 and Zhao Man, but we are not fully sure, so we have to find a way to confirm. , when the time comes, it will be done in one battle, otherwise once Zhao Man is given a chance to escape... it will be very difficult to find them again."

"Who are you going with? By yourself?" She was surprised and worried about his safety. Although her ability is not suitable for this kind of investigation, isn't it too lonely to go alone?

"Don't worry, I will be careful. I just confirm their existence from a distance, and I won't let them see me. It's not good if there are too many people in this kind of thing."

He called Frigg, "Senior Aurora, I'll take a step first."

"Be careful."

Jiang Chanji got on his horse and left under Aurora's watchful eye.He actually planned to go after lunch, but he didn't expect Leila to agree so happily. Considering that Leila has a private jet, he can fly here soon if he wants to, so he has to hurry up and act.

……

"It's all over."

Leila shook the satellite phone, walked over to Luisa and said.

In order to avoid suspicion, Luisa walked away for a while and let Leila call alone. She didn't hear what Leila said in detail, but she saw Leila smiling on the phone and asked enviously: "You Do you have a good relationship with your cousin?"

"Feelings...haha! Of course it's very good, after all we are cousins, haha!" Leila laughed, "But my cousin is an iceberg beauty, only when... You are gentle, and when you really meet, you will deliberately put on a straight face and say some sarcastic remarks, don't be surprised then."

"Sounds like a very shy guy."

Louisa had already pictured in Louisa's mind the image of a lady who lived in the boudoir and was used to hiding her shyness with sarcastic remarks.

"Really?" Leila suppressed her smile, "She heard that I would bring a friend with her, and she welcomed her, and she also heard that you are interested in the textbooks of Hongye College, so she offered to help you get a copy. Woolen cloth."

"Wouldn't it bother her too much?" Luisa asked pleasantly.

"How come? Besides, the relationship between our cousins ​​is so good, this little favor is nothing...you don't have to worry about it at all. "

Leila was in a good mood, and greeted her bodyguards and mercenaries, and prepared to go back the same way with Luisa.

The leader of one of the bodyguards quietly pulled her aside, pointed to the scepter in Luisa's hand, and was very worried about the safety of her and herself.

Luisa's scepter is gorgeous by the standards of primitive tribes, inlaid with unrefined raw gold and uncut diamonds, which is a symbol of her being a high priest, but the problem is that the top of the scepter is inlaid There is a skull, and it doesn't seem to be a monkey or an orangutan's skull, but a human... This is very scary.

Before Leila came to the rainforest to explore the secrets, she had heard more than once that the witchcraft tribe was a cannibal. She was dubious about this rumor, so this time she spent money to buy mercenaries in addition to bodyguards. It's not that these useless men can resist the witchcraft tribe, but in case something happens, she can use these guys to hold the witchcraft tribe back and slip away first.

After arriving at the place, she asked the guide, and the guide said that he had heard similar rumors, but he thought it was not true. He lived in a village near the rainforest, and had never heard of witchcraft tribes attacking this village or other villages. Villagers, and there have been several incidents where villagers went hunting in the rainforest and were rescued by the huntress of the witchcraft tribe. They did not harm the villagers, let alone eat them.

From this, Leila judged that the credibility of the rumor was very low. After all, the witchcraft tribe is also a member of the extraordinary world. If they enjoy cannibalism, even if they are far away, there will always be nosy people like Red Leaf Academy If they intervene, the monastery will probably not sit idly by. Once these tough guys decide something, they will go to Africa even if they pay a heavy price.

It's a pity that the Ninja Academy's app can't be used recently, otherwise it would be easy for her to get conclusive information through the ninja.

After confirming that the high priest of the witchcraft tribe was her former classmate Luisa, she didn't believe the rumors of cannibalism even more. After the rendezvous, they will definitely ask too.

Leila walked up to Luisa with a smile, pretending to be casual and asked, "Luisa, your scepter... is very special. When you are on the road, wouldn't it be better to put it away first?"

"Okay, I forgot about it." Luisa nodded understandingly, "Are you startled?"

"It's okay to be shocked, but... just some accidents." Leila is very good at insinuating, she didn't take the initiative to ask, but said: "I didn't expect you to bring... this kind of thing, is it the rule of the tribe? ?”

"Yes, and no." Luisa looked down at the skull, "I was almost scared to pee when I saw it for the first time, and I got used to it after a long time."

"I heard from the chief that a long time ago, before the appearance of supernatural powers, and when the witchcraft tribe was still a dying primitive tribe, there was a tradition from tens of thousands of years ago - the tribe believed that the soul resided in the head. , so when the tribe members die, they will keep their heads and put them at home or carry them with them, this is to commemorate the dead companions, and it is said that they can inherit the courage of the dead companions." Luisa explained.

"Oh, so that's what it is."

Leila nodded in relief. This kind of tradition is easy to understand. In fact, it is equivalent to modern people putting the ashes of their dead relatives at home.

"Another reason besides this... I don't need to say it?" Luisa suddenly added.

"Ok?"

Leila was taken aback, "Another reason?"

Louisa was surprised, "Don't you know?"

"Don't know what?" Leila was at a loss.

"Original bone, you spend a lot of money to buy the original bone from extraordinary animals, don't you know that human bones also have the same effect? ​​No, human bones have a stronger effect, isn't this normal? After all, human beings are the spirit of all things. Especially the skull that hosts the human soul, even after death, the soul... or consciousness, will not completely dissipate, and the remaining energy in the skull can make us stronger."

Luisa rubbed her palm on the skull, "Compared to other people, I seem to be more efficient at absorbing energy from the skull."
