Chapter 633 [Body Mirror]

"I have friends over there , is a captain who asked me to ask you about the twin worship."

Shade said casually.

"Oh, Fort Midhill, so that's how it is."

Professor Manning put down his teacup:
"But let me stress first, when I Some of the text I saw is the content that the church prohibits the dissemination of. I signed a contract with the church, and some content cannot be disclosed."

"It's okay, just say what you can say."

p>

Shade said:

"First of all, I want to know, is the tradition of prehistoric twin worship related to death?"

"Death?"

The professor was stunned for a moment, then shook his head:
"What is the relationship between these two? No, it doesn't seem to be completely unrelated. I was very young at the time, and I wasn't the main excavator, so I didn't see much textual materials. ...but I heard a saying locally in Midhillsburg that the twins can actually be seen as one person. So when one of the twins is seriously ill and may die, it is possible to kill the other by killing the other , to prevent the death of the seriously ill by making death happen earlier"

He glanced at Shade's expression:

"Of course, this is just stupidity, when I was young, It's just a rumor to frighten the little ones."

Speaking of which, the twin worship should have nothing to do with the third chosen person.

"So, in the twin worship, is there a ceremony who can let the twins who are far apart and never see each other put their thoughts on them, and even break the estrangement?"

"This question is Weird."

The professor said, but nodded:
"Of course there is, but I have to remind you that I'm a professor of history and archaeology, not folklore. So those mysticism What, I don't understand, I just use my own experience and knowledge to restore ancient knowledge."

"Yes, professor, I didn't see any illegal materials from you tonight. ."

Shade said immediately, and then Professor Manning smiled nodded, called his servant, and went to the third floor to get the documents in the reference room.

Professor Manning did not compile the archaeological materials he conducted in his youth at Mount Sikor into a book, but included it in his lesson plan as material for teaching youngster:
“ Look at this, Red Butterfly, yes, this is it."

He handed Shade the pages in the cardboard folder and said as Shade looked at it:
"We discovered In the remains of the Gemini Order, it is recorded that the holy emblem of the distant great Gemini God resembles a butterfly. Later, after the communication between the folk scholar and the Prophet Association, it was found that the intention of the 'red butterfly' in the divination is itself a Meaning sacrifice, twins, etc."

"So, the way to break the twin barrier has something to do with Red Butterfly?"

"Yes, a weird and complicated poem, I wrote it down just because I was interested."

Professor Manning squinted and recalled the past, while Shade flipped through it, he recounted the lesson plan he had taught all his life:
"Red Butterfly Spread your wings,

over the towering peaks,

over the black river,
may the wind take away the eternal thoughts,

until life and The end of death."

Professor Manning said it, literally, from the transcript:
"Sounds like a ballad, too."

"Yes. , in poetry and ballads, there should be other meanings, at least I and most scholars think so."

Professor nodded:
"I really miss when I first read this I'm just a little older than you are now. didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, I'm already that age."

He sighed, not knowing what to think.

Professor Manning suddenly became sad, so Shade talked to him about the past, and listened to him tell the interesting stories of running around the old continent when he was young, and didn't leave until 8 o'clock in the evening.

The second stop tonight is Old John's Pawnshop. The pawn shop usually closes at 10pm, so it's not rude for Shade to visit so late.

When I pushed the door and entered, Dad John, who was under the gas lamp, was pouring tea for himself. He looked up when he heard the push on the door:

"Oh, good evening, detective. I just want to find you, and there is news about the special blood you asked me to help find. I know you may be out of money, so it's cheaper this time."

"We'll talk about the blood later, Dad, help me identify a relic first."

Hearing this, Old John immediately became interested. After putting on the gloves, I picked up the silver mirror that Shade put on the counter:

“tsk tsk, mirror, there are not many relics with this appearance, since it is so, it should be easy to find Information. Detective, wait for me."

He put down the mirror and walked to the second floor of the pawn shop, but he walked back in five or six minutes. Judging from the expression on his face, he already had Result:

"I found it, it turned out to be this one, a Poet-level (Level 5) relic - [Hidden Mirror]."

"en?"

"Don't worry, it's not a undead relic, it should be a Space Type relic."

"What's the use?"

Shade curiously asked, and old John returned at a moderate pace Behind the counter:
"Two properties are currently known, the first is that this mirror can hold corpses almost infinitely, yes, hide the corpse in the mirror and carry it. St. Byrons first contained this mirror , which was obtained from a corpse thief. Of course, the corpse stored in the mirror has a chance of being transformed into a low-level undead, so people speculate that this mirror was originally a person proficient in space power and spiritual power. It is made by a large amount of Demoness."

"Can it be used as Space Dao Equipment to accommodate other items?"

"No."

"The mirror seems to be nothing. Use."

Shade shrugs, and if he wants to transport a body, Mystic Art [toy making] is enough.

"Don't worry, listen to the second characteristic. Hold a mirror, and the holder can enter the mirror space."

"What do you mean?"

This Interested in Shade.

"Hold this mirror, you can find another mirror, and walk into it. Oh, let me demonstrate."

Speaking, old John is pawning Among the messy goods, a floor-to-ceiling mirror that looked like an antique was brought out. He took Shade's [Dead Body Mirror] and reached out to touch the huge mirror.

The mirror surface seemed to have ripples, and Old John actually walked in like this.

The mirror reflects the Shade outside the mirror, but you can also see the old John in the mirror. This picture is very strange. Shade reached out and touched the mirror of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, but the mirror couldn't get in.

"It's interesting, isn't it?"

Papa John is hiding behind a shelf in the mirror, so he can never be seen in the mirror again.

He walked out of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, returned the [Dead Body Mirror] to Shade, and continued to introduce the features:
"You can hold the [Dead Body Mirror] while carrying any Items with souls go into a mirror, yes, relics can also be brought in, and you can choose any mirror size. But when you leave the mirror, the items you bring in will also be ejected."

In other words, this small mirror cannot possibly be used as a space item.

But Shade suddenly thought of another probability:
"If I hold the [Dead Body Mirror] and enter another mirror, can the mirror I hide be moved?"

If possible, Shade will let others enter the mirror, and then he will carry the mirror through the statue of [Primary Rift] to achieve space movement.

"No, when the mirror you choose is entered, the mirror will be fixed in the space in a similar way and absolutely cannot be moved. Also, when the mirror you choose is broken, the [corpse mirror] ] will be automatically ejected, and the mirror holder will be trapped in the mirror space forever."

Dad John said, Shade nods:

"That is, except for Besides the corpse, it is still a small hiding place?"

"Yes, and after entering the mirror space, it can greatly reduce the external spiritual pollution and soul pollution, which is a very useful feature."

But the [Dead Body Mirror] is also dangerous. In addition to storing corpses that may cause the undead to revive, the user may also be completely lost once they stay in the mirror world for too long.

There are actually many dangers in the mirror world, and the exploration of contemporary ring warlocks is far from enough. But to Shade, the mirror is valuable enough.
