Gu Yanxi looked down, and saw a small and exquisite black pocket knife suddenly appearing on the floor.
Yao Qian also saw the jackknife on the ground, and the expression on her face froze for a second or two.
"This... Anna likes to eat apples, so she always carries a fruit knife with her. Girls, when going out, they are prone to danger. It is normal to carry a knife for self-defense."
Picking up the jackknife on the ground, Gu Yanxi explained with a dry smile.
"So that's the case. It's Nana who is thoughtful. I read the news the day before yesterday, saying that a girl in a certain place was kidnapped. In this world, it's really hard to guard against."
Yao Qian suddenly realized, and then said with a smile: "Nana likes to eat apples, so next time, I will buy some and keep them at home, so that she can eat all she can eat at once."
The crisis was over, and in the bathroom, Cecilia let out a long sigh of relief.
Chapter 170: Uneasy
Just a quick shower won't waste long.
What really troubled Cecilia was her extremely thick silver-white curly hair.
Not only is it dense and thick, which seriously affects heat dissipation, but it is also extremely heavy when it sees water. Before the body was not strengthened by magic, every time washing and blowing hair was the most painful moment for Cecilia.
Of course, it's not that easy now. It took nearly half an hour before Cecilia washed her hair thoroughly, and then twisted it with both hands several times like twisting a rag, and then put on a bath towel. Walk out the door of the bathroom.
"Nana finished washing? Hurry up and ask Yanyan to blow dry your hair, and Auntie will cut watermelon for you to eat." Seeing Cecilia, Yao Qian hurriedly stood up and said very earnestly.
"Ah... well, thank you, Auntie."
Subconsciously clutching her chest, Cecilia nodded casually and came to Gu Yanxi's bedroom.
At this time, Gu Yanxi had already taken out the pink hair dryer from the drawer, plugged it in, and sat by the bed to wait.
While drying her hair, Cecilia did not forget her business today, so she said in a deep voice, "I have something very important to tell you."
"What are you talking about? Louder, I can't hear you."
Gu Yanxi grabbed Cecilia's strand of silver hair while shaking the hair dryer in her hand.
"I said, I have something very important to tell you." This time, Cecilia slightly increased the volume.
"Is it related to the discoloration of your eyes?" Gu Yanxi seemed to have a premonition, and slowly put down the hair dryer, assuming a posture of sitting upright.
"Well, it's about my eyes." Cecilia nodded.
"Then tell me, I'm listening carefully." Gu Yanxi moved her body, and the distance between the two got closer.
This time, Cecilia bowed her head and pondered for a long time. She really didn't know where to start, so she could only tentatively ask: "Do you know... magic power?"
"Magic power? What is that, something needed to release magic?" Gu Yanxi asked in surprise.
"Well, almost."
Cecilia nodded again, and then continued: "As far as I know, magic power is a unique product of another world, and people in that world can practice... Forget it, you can understand that you can practice by absorbing magic power Bar."
"So that's the case, so what does this magical power have to do with what you want to talk about?" In a sense, Gu Yanxi is indeed a good listener, and can continue to draw the topic.
"I woke up this morning and found that not only did my eyes change their current color, but I could also control myself to absorb magic power." Cecilia said softly.
"Isn't that troublesome? If you go out in the future, someone will definitely notice the color of your eyes." Apparently, Gu Yanxi didn't understand what Cecilia wanted to express.
"That's not the point. My hair is already eye-catching, and I'm not short of two eyes. At that time, it's enough to wear colored contact lenses."
Cecilia sighed softly, and then continued to explain: "What I want to say is that I don't know what happened in the other world. The magic power from their side seems to have drifted to our world."
"Huh? Isn't this a good thing?"
Gu Yanxi tilted her head, and continued: "In this case, we earthlings can also practice magic like people from other worlds."
After hearing Gu Yanxi's words, Cecilia was speechless for a moment, and after a few seconds, she said in a heavy tone:
"Don't think too optimistic about everything. First, we don't know the existence of magic power yet, and whether it will have any impact on human health. Second, even if it doesn't affect the body, no one knows how to cultivate magic power. Like what is said in martial arts novels, if you practice kung fu indiscriminately, you may become obsessed."
"Oh yes."
Gu Yanxi lowered her head, and her pretty face showed a dignified expression.
"You also know that strictly speaking, I am no longer a human being, so the appearance of magic power has no effect on me, and it can even be said to be a good thing, but I don't know about you for the time being." Cecily Ya said again.
"Then do you know how to use magic now?" Suddenly, Gu Yanxi asked such a question.
"No, it's just that my physical fitness has become stronger. I brought the things I brought upstairs at once." Cecilia shook her head and replied honestly.
"That's great, I want to learn magic too."
Recalling a series of anime such as "Sailor Moon", "Cardcaptor Sakura", and "Guardian Sweetheart" that she loved most when she was a child, Gu Yanxi said with a sense of longing.
"Otherwise, first try to see if you can perceive the magic power?"
Cecilia pondered for a moment, and felt that there should be no big problem if she just tried to perceive the magic power without inhaling it into her body, so she tried to ask.
"Okay, let me finish drying your hair first."
Although she was very curious about the magic power that Cecilia said, Gu Yanxi was not in a hurry. Instead, she picked up the hair dryer and dried Cecilia's hair thoroughly before following Cecilia's instructions. According to the instructions, he sat cross-legged on the bed.
"Close your eyes, keep your mind free of distracting thoughts, don't concentrate too much, try to spread out, and then pay attention to see if you can see the glowing white dots."
Recalling the experience when she first perceived magic power, Cecilia said softly.
"Ah."
Gu Yanxi hummed lightly, following Cecilia's instructions, she began to try to sense the magic around her.
After closing his eyes, his vision was pitch black, as if the whole person was floating in the vast universe, unable to see any light.
Gu Yanxi's thinking gradually emptied, her mind went blank, and she completely lost the concept of time.
I don't know how long it took, maybe tens of seconds, maybe ten minutes, but there was still nothingness and darkness in front of her eyes.
However, just when Gu Yanxi couldn't hold on anymore and wanted to give up, suddenly, in front of her, around her, above her head, and under her feet, countless tiny light spots lit up, as bright as fireflies in the dark night.
"Little dots of light! There are a lot of them! I see them!"
Suppressing the joy in her heart, Gu Yanxi said excitedly.
"It's over, just open your eyes."
Fearing that Gu Yanxi would try to inhale the magic power into her body, Cecilia hurriedly waved her hand to stop.
Gu Yanxi slowly opened her eyes, exited the state of meditation, and all the light spots around her disappeared.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Cecilia lowered her head and thought.
First of all, from Gu Yanxi's test just now, it can be seen that not only vampires like her, but ordinary people on the earth can also perceive magic power.
And there are so many people on the earth, a total of more than 70 billion people, and countless people enter the state of meditation every day.
From this point of view, by now, many people should have discovered the existence of magic power through meditation, and the Internet is so developed today, I am afraid that it will not be long before people all over the world will know that there are more magic powers on the earth. Something called magic.
"Oops......"
Stretching out her hand to cover her forehead, at this moment, Cecilia felt that the development of the situation seemed to be getting out of her control.
"What are you worried about? Will magic have any bad influence on our world?" Seeing Cecilia's appearance, Gu Yanxi patted her on the shoulder and asked with concern.
"I am no longer worried about the impact of magic power on human health."
Raising her head slowly, Cecilia said in a low voice with no expression on her face: "I've seen someone split the space with a single knife and open the barrier that separates the two worlds. That's something that humans should never have. Once the power is released, the consequences are no different from a beast getting out of the cage."
"I don't quite understand..." Gu Yanxi whispered.
"Everyone needs something to restrain his behavior when he lives in the world, such as his own ability, or external laws, and if a person loses the restraint, the darkest side of human nature will erupt and drive him to To do whatever you want, to wage war, to destroy, to enslave others."
Cecilia sighed again, and said softly: "I can't guarantee the war, but the society will definitely be in turmoil for a while."
"Then what should we do next?" Gu Yanxi roughly understood what Cecilia meant, and then asked.
"I'm going to ask Esther tonight to see if I can get exercises suitable for human cultivation from her. In the next few days, you and your aunt can try to start practicing." Cecilia After thinking for a moment, he said slowly.
Since the secret of magic power cannot be hidden for too long, there will definitely be people who risk their lives to try to cultivate. If they are really learned by these people, they may cause some troubles by then.
In case any terrorist who wants to take revenge on the society, learns the magic of rolling fireballs, then swaggers through the security check, and detonates directly on the plane, subway station, or downtown area, the end will be unimaginable.
Therefore, instead of pinning their hopes on other people's conscience, it is better for Gu Yanxi and Yao Qian to start practicing magic power and use magic to deal with magic.
Maybe in the future when encountering any danger, there will still be a little bit of self-protection ability.
Gu Yanxi wanted to say something more, but Yao Qian's voice came from outside the door: "Yanyan, Nana, come and eat watermelon!"
"Eat the watermelon first, let's talk about the rest tomorrow." Cecilia said.
"My mother is so kind to you, I'm a little jealous."
Gu Yanxi took out two rubber bands from the drawer, put them on her wrists, and said teasingly as she tied Cecilia's hair.
"Your mother is a good person, and so are you." Cecilia pursed her lips and responded lightly.
Recalling the past, she continued: "If you were not willing to take me in at that time, I would really have no place to live."
"Now is now, don't talk about the past anymore, if you want, my mother will be your mother from now on, you can come whenever you want." Gu Yanxi reached out and covered Cecilia's mouth.
Gently pulling Gu Yanxi's hand, Cecilia smiled, and said: "Actually, it's pretty good now, at least there is hope in life, and there is money that can't be spent. You don't have to spend money every month like before. I'm in arrears with your rent."
"But, after all, you still lost... that... that..."
As she was talking, Gu Yanxi's face suddenly flushed with an impure blush, and the movement of tying her hair in her hands suddenly accelerated a lot.
"Okay!" As Gu Yanxi let go of her hands, two pretty ponytails immediately fell behind Cecilia's back again.
Cecilia looked at herself in the mirror on the dressing table. At this time, Gu Yanxi also brought a short sleeve that she was wearing, and handed it to Cecilia: "Take off the bath towel, wear this, I will The short sleeves are long and should cover your thighs."
Cecilia dubiously untied the bath towel, and began to draw the size of the short sleeves on her body.
"It's so small." Looking at Cecilia in front of her, Gu Yanxi suddenly pursed her lips and said.
"All the blood races are like this, and Esther doesn't look too big." Cecilia couldn't find a reason to fight back for a while, so she could only blame her physical defects on the blood race.
"Don't mention other women in front of me." This time, Gu Yanxi puffed up her cheeks and said seriously.
"Okay, let's not mention it then."
Cecilia agreed casually, while putting on Gu Yanxi's short sleeves.
The lengthened hem can really cover the middle of the thigh. As long as you pay more attention to the range of movement, you don't have to worry about the risk of running out.
Besides, the three people in this room are all women, so even if they are really gone, there is no need to get entangled.
"Do you like the big one or the small one?" Unexpectedly, Gu Yanxi began to ask relentlessly.
Cecilia thought for a while, afraid of touching any red line again, so she replied decisively: "Big one, bigger is better."
