The length of the long, indigo-colored talisman paper could extend from Zhou Yu's straightened fingertips to near the base of his palm. Different from the rough yellow paper used to burn the dead, these three indigo-like blue talismans also appear to be very thick in texture. This cyanotic Chinese paper looks unique from its appearance, like the material of some kind of artwork. The only reason it can be identified as "talisman paper" is that there are vermilion patterns all over its surface. It seemed to be some kind of calligraphy written with cinnabar, and the structure of the characters was not complicated, but Zhou Yu couldn't recognize what the characters were.
"Did your friend also borrow this?"
"This is stolen. Do you remember the young master I mentioned before? I went to his house to get a little bit. Although I haven't told him yet, I think he won't care about this little thing."
Hearing what Chen Wei said, Zhou Yu remembered the "wooden human talisman" that Zhang Mumu had put on his forehead last time, and the white jade ring that had been hanging on Zhang Mumu's chest so far, but it was unclear whether it had any meaning.
No matter whether this "expert" has real materials or not, he is at least willing to lend a piece of jade of good quality to a friend for emergency. For this reason, Zhou Yu did not say a single bad word about the other party, but chose to question Chen Wei's level.
"Are you sure you got it right?"
"It's impossible to get it wrong. It's such an obvious color, it's pretty, right?"
"What I'm referring to is color. Student Chen, have you ever seen a Taoist priest draw talismans on blue paper?"
As if he had known he would ask this question, Chen Wei showed a knowing smile.
"Have you ever heard of Qing Ci, classmate Zhou?"
"No."
"That's normal. If you are not professional or career-related, you will generally not be exposed to this style of writing. The so-called Qing Ci is a blessing to God during fasting. Because it is a prayer related to this kind of sacrifice, the article usually has It is extremely gorgeous and beautiful, and must be written on ivy paper with a red pen. This ivy paper is also called porcelain green paper. It was considered a very high-quality paper product in ancient times, and most of it was used for transcribing scriptures."
He gently shook the blue talisman in his hand and concluded: "Since it is paper used to sacrifice to heaven, it is normal to use it to make talismans."
"But, the painting should be a charm to attract ghosts, right? It doesn't seem to make sense that he was wearing official uniform when he was investigating a crime den."
"That's true." Chen Wei shrugged and said, "Then I have another theory to explain the color of this talisman."
"Speaking."
"The color of the porcelain blue paper is very beautiful, but the price is relatively expensive. My eldest young master likes elegance, and his family is quite wealthy - you see, the market demand and spending power are already there, so tradition doesn't matter anymore."
Zhou Yu no longer wanted to talk to the other party. He called Zhang Mumu, who had run to the end of the gym, back to him, then pointed at Chen Wei and said, "Classmate Zhang, I seem to hear this man laughing at you for having just been weaned and being as short as his own daughter."
"Awei is dead!"
The fire-breathing dragon that once wreaked havoc on campus celebrations let out a roar and rushed towards its opponent without hesitation.
Satisfied, Zhou Yu held a black umbrella and walked to the sofa in the corner to sit down. While searching for online information about Lunxing on his mobile phone, he waited for the day to pass.
Before today, Zhou Yu had no impression of the company Lunxing Biotechnology. After searching online, he was surprised to find that it turned out to be a multinational company. Although there are several prescription drugs that he is familiar with that are not produced by Lunxing, their R&D teams and manufacturers have equity relationships with Lunxing. The business direction of Lunxing itself is divided into two main sectors: genetic testing and brain medicine. Judging from the information disclosed online, this is a quite advanced technology company. For some reason, it has set up a scientific research department in an ordinary city like Migenzhu, which is not an international city.
He clicked on Lunxing's official website. At first he wanted to understand the corporate structure and history, but in the end he read the resume introduction of the technical expert team, and then their respective representative papers - for some reason, although the research on genetic testing discussed him a little I can’t understand it either, but the articles on brain medicine are written in a very simple way. In particular, the views on clinical surgery had nothing to do with his current situation, but he couldn't help but be fascinated by them.
By the time he finished reading a research summary on neurological cases of various parts of the brain tissue of schizophrenia, Zhang Mumu was already sleeping soundly with his pillow on his lap. Zhou Yu seriously doubted that she would get her saliva on Zhou Yu's dress, but the dwarf slept so soundly that Zhou Yu did not wake her up in the end.
The bright sunshine outside the window finally slowly sank from the sky. In the slanting light as brilliant as flowing gold, blood seeped into it bit by bit.
When the light on the screen became dazzling in the darkness, Zhou Yu slowly put down the phone. He raised his head and looked out the window. The sky was burning with a bright red sunset. In front of the sea of red light that flickers on and off, the roller coaster track with the same background color looks like a dark ring suspended in the air.
Looking at the rich sunset glow, Zhou Yu naturally thought: Tomorrow will still be a sunny day.
"Isn't the scenery here nice?"
Chen Wei, who had been ravaged by the fire-breathing dragon, had to sit on the edge of the plastic stool for the whole afternoon because Zhang Mumu was sitting on the sofa, reading something on his mobile phone. Only then did he get up and walk over, facing the window and saying: "This is not the best place with the best view. The Xiangchen Bridge at night is much more beautiful. It's a pity that I don't have the chance tonight. I will take you to see it another day." Bar."
"No need. The time is almost up now, right? How are you going to use your talisman?"
Zhou Yu put away her phone and looked at the blue charm in Chen Wei's hand. No matter how many times he looked at it, he still felt that this kind of thing was child's play.
However, whenever he wanted to completely deny it, the night when Hongye summoned the storm would come to his mind. It filled his heart with some indescribable sense of contradiction.
That talisman is something "unreasonable". Not only does it go beyond common sense, but it breaks a more important law that is so important that it will never be tolerated to go beyond it.
But what exactly is it? He couldn't tell. In order to avoid meaningless anxiety, he could only look away from the gloomy indigo.
Seemingly not noticing anything unusual about him, Chen Wei still said in a relaxed tone: "Usage is the same as ordinary talisman paper, just burn it. Classmate Zhou, do you have a lighter?"
"...do I seem to have one?"
"Well, to be honest, you are dressed in black like this, which fits the psychological characteristics of an arsonist."
"You're dressed like you have hundreds of matchboxes stuck to you."
The plaid coat was so attacked that Chen Wei had to raise his hands to express surrender.
"There is no other way. Wake up the dwarf. She must have a lighter on her."
Zhou Yu patted Zhang Mumu awake with hesitation. If what Chen Wei said was true, Zhang Mumu rubbed his eyes and actually took out a well-made steel lighter from his pocket.
"Classmate Zhang, why do you bring something like this?"
"Defend yourself." Zhang Mumu said confidently.
Although she didn't understand the reason, Zhou Yu was still convinced by her. Chen Wei took the lighter from her hand happily and clicked it for fun.
"The gym closes at 8:30, and we have a total of one and a half hours. Regardless of whether there is any harvest next, we must leave the building at 8:30. Otherwise, if we are caught by the doorman and asked to check the ID card, we will be the same as ' Xiao Ming'll get into trouble."
After saying this, he put a blue talisman to the flames. The tongue of fire quickly licked up the paper, and when it touched the ink marks on the paper, it blew out a few wisps of blue-white smoke.
After the blue paper burned out, the light suddenly dimmed. The three people looked at each other in a dark room with no lights on.
One minute. five minutes. ten minutes.
Nothing happened.
