List of strange talismans

Chapter 37 Departure
"It's not just acquaintance... I said, can you let me go first?"

The young man was panting and slurring his words.

Gu Xiuya frowned slightly.

The other party is carrying a resident fetish, obviously not an ordinary person.He also relied on a sneak attack to seize the opportunity to subdue it.If you let go at this time, maybe someone will gain the upper hand.

"What do you want to do next door to Mr. Yan?"

Gu Xiuya asked.

The young man didn't want to answer at first, but the look in Gu Xiuya's eyes made him feel that if he didn't speak clearly, it would be hard to be kind today.

"...Assess Gu Ning, assess her interpersonal relationship and potential risks."

"Ok?"

"I have the communication record with Gu Ning in my mobile phone, if you don't believe me, you can read it yourself." The young man pointed to his trouser pocket with his little finger.

Gu Xiuya reached out and took out his mobile phone, and asked him to unlock it, and saw Gu Ning's name on a chat software that he had never seen before.

He clicked on a voice.

beep.

"Leader Han, I heard that you are on a business trip in Elton? Could you please spare some time to take care of my younger brother? That kid is in a rebellious period recently, and he is angry with me and refuses to return to Lanka Port. I am very worried about him."

beep.

"can."

beep.

"Thank you! I will train hard to repay you!"

beep.

"Hands up."

The young man was embarrassed by his answer.

Gu Xiuya let go of his hand and returned the phone to him: "Sorry, Team Leader Han."

The young man looked at Gu Xiuya, hesitant to speak, and hesitant to speak: "This matter...can you not tell sister Ni?"

Gu Xiuya narrowed his eyes slightly: "Why?"

"I don't want to lose my good image as a life mentor. This will affect my strength. And...it's a bit embarrassing to say this."

It's really embarrassing to say this—the leader of the dignified "heptahedron" second special action team was taken down by a high school student.Although there were reasons why he didn't use his full strength in the first place, it was enough to make countless colleagues laugh out loud.

Gu Xiuya nodded: "The victory obtained by the sneak attack is not worth publicizing, and I have no intention of enmity with you, but..."

Gu Xiuya didn't finish his sentence, but the young man already understood the meaning.

He struggled for a while, and finally said: "I can only show you ten seconds, no more... I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on."

"can."

……

5 minute later.

Gu Xiuya stretched out his hand into his bosom, and 【Lie Weiqi】appeared in his hand.

He turned the pages of the book and saw seven diamond-shaped imprints shining brightly on the book "Zhan Shen".

Just as he thought, the residing fetishes born from the consciousness of gods can also light up these diamond-shaped marks.

Just why is the number seven?

The extra one...could it come from the monster in the library?

But isn't that a dream?Is the contact in the dream counted as direct contact?
If this is the case, the judgment that I have always believed that "to light up the mark must be in direct contact with the target" is somewhat fallacious.

There may be other undiscovered connections between the two.

Gu Xiuya thought about it, and checked the big and small bags.

The first part of the journey started too suddenly, and he wasted a lot of time in the story because he didn't prepare well.

This time, he learned his lesson and bought all the necessary items in advance, packed them in a large backpack with a combination lock, and took them whenever he needed them.

After the inspection, Gu Xiuya sent a text message to Mr. Yan.

"There is herbal tea in the refrigerator, remember to take it away. I'm going back to Lanka Port in the next few days to see my father."

The message was delivered in less than 10 seconds.

"Are you alone? Go for a few days? Forget it, I'll ask tonight to see if I can take a leave of absence and go back with you tomorrow."

Mr. Yan replied quickly.

Gu Xiuya remembered that Mr. Yan's job seemed to be open all year round, and he had never heard of asking for leave. Recently, it was unprecedented to be able to leave work on time every day.

It was clear that this woman was going to do it again because he violated her principles.

Gu Xiuya was very moved, so he typed: "Our family's tradition is that we can only go to worship our ancestors together after we get married."

This time, Mr. Yan didn't reply for a long time.

Gu Xiuya seemed to be able to see the tangled pretty face on the other side of the screen.

There is a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The maiden costume can only be seen when I get home, and I will always look forward to it."

After Gu Xiuya sent this sentence, he closed the chat window with Mr. Yan, and then sent another message to Gu Ning.

The main idea is to tell her that she has met with Team Leader Han and had a heated exchange, and the relationship is close to flesh, so that she should not worry about herself.

Afterwards, he spread out the strange talismans on the desk, and reached out to touch his first imprint.

"There is a holy god, and there is no prayer."

"Yuan Chen divides the field, and the stars appear."

"Pro!"

The glow suddenly came to life.

Even though it was not the first time seeing him, Gu Xiuya was still shocked by the grotesque scene in front of him.

He saw the universe floating like a wave, and the stars rushed towards him from all directions. The bright light that did not belong to this world wrapped his body like a thin film, turned into a meteor across the boundless deep space, and cast it into an inverted deep darkness.

His eyes went blank for a moment, and then, there was a breeze blowing on his face.

"Meow."

Running water sticks its head out of its pocket, and looks at everything in front of it with wide eyes.

Gu Xiuya's hair fluttered in the warmth of late spring, and the glow of the setting sun passed through the gaps in the leaves above his head and sprinkled on his face, shining golden.

He turned around and saw the smoke from the kitchen not far away, the church bells were coming with the wind, and there were vaguely familiar and unfamiliar figures walking on the way home.

1739 5 Month 6 Day.

That night, there was a sudden heavy rain in Galanz, and nearly a hundred people died.

He goes back to the beginning of the story.

Galanz Town is a typical agricultural town, and most of the residents make a living from farming, fishing and hunting.

The mayor, Matthews, tried many times to change this position and move closer to the foundry industry, but all failed.

Because no one wants to be a worker.

Galanz Town in 1739 was a remote corner bypassed by the development of the times.

Here, the vanguard of science and industry failed to fulfill its mission of opening the way for capital.Here, the harvest can only be obtained with two hands, not from the redemption game between banknotes.

Most Galanz people have never left this remote town surrounded by vast mountains in their entire lives, so naturally they have no access to the wave of ideas that is sweeping the world.

According to their simple and simple concept, if the things produced by labor are not their own, such a life is no different from that of slaves.

A slave worked for a day, and his master gave him food to satisfy his hunger.This is not fundamentally different from getting a meager general equivalent after working.

Gu Xiuya remembered that the most advanced items in the whole town were two textile machines, both of which belonged to the mayor.

The only person here who has anything to do with industrial development is Chekhov who blacksmithed the town.

According to rumors, this forging genius once successfully mastered the high-end technique of forging washbasins and chamber pots with both hands after studying in Taya Town next door.

Gu Xiuya shuttled through the dirt path, and soon came to the front gate of Galanz Town.

The arch made of square stones is less than six meters high, and the gaps are filled with straw and clay. A horse covered with barbs stands in the middle of the doorway, and behind it is the uneven bluestone path, with no pedestrians.

Two militiamen who still kept their medieval costumes held their spears in their arms, and leaned against the door to grill rice under the light of the stars.

Seeing Gu Xiuya approaching, the two hurriedly put down their bowls, straightened up and stood up.

"Stranger, are you from"

One of the tall militiamen was about to routinely ask Gu Xiuya's identity, but after seeing his attire, he immediately widened his eyes in surprise: "My God, you, are you a pastor?"
