Although the turn-around rate is extremely high, the Nine-Tails' own magical power to confuse people's hearts is still relatively controllable when Gu Mo does not actively use the power of the guardian spirit, but instead deliberately restrains it. As long as it is not in close contact or affects people for a long time, it is more eye-catching.
Even though it only shows a little bit, it is already very lethal and difficult for ordinary people to resist, but it is definitely not to the point where it can serve as a warning to others on this road.
Overthrow the country, bring chaos to the government, and let the dynasty collapse and turn into the dust of history. This is what is called unmatched and unparalleled, overturning the country and the city. This is what happened. It is both an adjective to describe the extraordinary charm of otherworldliness and an idiom of realistic style...
Fortunately, not only the Kyuubi, but also the guardian spirit Baiwei also plays a role.
As the messenger of gods or the incarnation of gods, the widely respected White Snake is undoubtedly divine, and the characteristic of divinity is that it is awe-inspiring, noble, and inviolable... This temperament cannot offset the confusing power of Nine-Tails. , but it can at least give the affected person a chance to calm down at a critical moment.
So along the way, Gu Mo didn't meet any hot-headed guys, and he was relieved.
It seemed that the situation was not that bad. This discovery made him feel relieved a little. He also gave up the idea of going home and staying at home. He just speeded up his actions. At the same time, he went to a clothing store on the way and got some A set of hooded sweatshirts, and he changed into it on the spot.
——It probably has some effect.
After buying clothes, the next step is to buy things like yellow paper and cinnabar, which are mainly materials used to make spells. As the main extraordinary ability he can currently use, spells must be prepared as fully as possible.
In fact, the material requirements for these things were not strict. It was just some strange ideas of Gu Mo that made him make such a choice. After all, since it was talisman paper, the most classic style would naturally fit his impression. The Zhu Shuhuang Talisman is of this style. It looks inexplicably "strengthened +1" compared to ordinary charms.
Gu Mo also wanted to stock up on other things, but it was unrealistic. The inventory could only store equipment items with "attributes" recognized by the mental retardation system. It might be that they were classified because they had attributes. It is a "game prop". In short, there is no way to put real-life things directly into it.
Although yellow paper cinnabar is also an ordinary thing, after his processing and refining, it has changed from a simple ordinary material into a charm with properties, so it can be stored and easily carried with you. But other things didn't work, and he could only think about whether there was a better solution.
Because he didn't have much experience in this area before, Gu Mo also went around and around, and finally found a nearby market. At a doorway, there was a small stall selling various paper money, burning incense, and sacred and Buddhist paraphernalia, and finally found what he wanted. s things.
"Yellow paper?"
The old man in the stall put down the old-fashioned pipe in his hand and looked at him and asked, with a somewhat uncertain expression on his face.
"Yes, it would be better if there is cinnabar. Give me some of both..." Gu Mo nodded and made his request seriously.
"Oh..." The old man made a long sound that represented a sudden realization, and his frown relaxed, "So what you are talking about is really yellow form paper. No one has bought this for many years, you little kid If you are young and ask this, I am still not sure for a while..."
"Yes, that's the yellow paper. Do you have it here?"
"Hey, I have to look for this carefully. It seems to be available, but it may not be available anymore. I only remember that it was sold before, but then... I don't know if there is any left, but can you look at others? Done. Tongbao money or something, everyone buys this, it’s so easy to use..."
"No, you don't need to make it. If there is any yellow paper, please look for it. I'll buy whatever is left..."
Gu Mo decisively refused. What was he going to do well? You can buy as much as you can, and you can go shopping online for the rest. Everything is available online, including cultivation techniques, foundation-building pills, and the like, especially yellow paper.
It's just that online shopping and delivery often take a certain amount of time, which can be as fast as a day or two, or as slow as not sure. He also wants to use his time, so he comes to buy directly now. After all, that's where the energy that can be consumed every day lies. If planned properly, it can be converted into at least double-digit spell output every day.
If you don't use it, there will naturally be no output, which means you are losing money. Every day of delay is equivalent to losing a certain amount of useful spells such as fire bomb charms and fortune-telling charms. Thinking about it, you feel that it is unacceptable. Especially when he is currently in the novice stage of hard work opening up new lands, it is when he needs these things more.
"Don't make it ready? Wait, we also need cinnabar. Don't you want to draw the talisman yourself?!" The old man looked a little regretful, but then he suddenly realized what he had discovered, and he slapped his forehead with surprise. He looked at the young man in front of him.
Gu Mo opened his mouth but didn't have time to speak.
The other party had already started to persuade him with earnest words——
"You young people just like to mess around. Why don't you have fun with this! Let me tell you, there are many taboos about drawing symbols. Don't use this for fun. It's useless. It's okay. You're afraid of causing trouble..."
The old man probably regarded Gu Mo as one of those young people who didn't know anything and could use anything for fun. But yes, after all, from his perspective, although the person in front of him was wearing a hood and his head was lowered, so his face could not be clearly seen, he could still tell that he was a very young person.
And he doesn’t look like a little Taoist priest in his clothes. What else could he be doing here to buy these things? It’s just for fun, right? The old man was getting older and was quite superstitious about this, so he immediately started talking nonchalantly.
"Thank you for your trouble, uncle..." Gu Mo noticed that because of the old uncle's loud voice, a lot of eyes were cast around him. He quickly lowered his head and shrunk as much as possible. While feeling grateful to the uncle, He also said quickly: "I'm in a hurry, so please look for it. If you don't have it, I'll buy it elsewhere."
"Oh... OK, let me take a look. There should be some yellow paper. If it's cinnabar... you have to go to the drugstore to buy it." The old man also knew that he couldn't persuade him. He sighed and turned around to go inside the stall. Go and rummage inside.
Gu Mo also twitched his lips, do all the uncles and aunts believe in these things so much?
Both of them spoke in a serious manner. The people in the community were sharing anecdotes and folklore. This was quite good. What were the taboos on even the talisman? You couldn’t mess around. It was easy to get into trouble if you were not careful. .
It's just... thinking in his heart, his expression became slightly solemn, is there really no such thing in the real world? Is it because I subconsciously distinguish between "copy" and "reality" that I act too arbitrary in this regard?
Maybe the inherent concepts I formed in the past were just because I was just an ordinary person before and had no access to the reality in this aspect?
This is also a possibility that cannot be easily denied.
While Gu Mo was thinking and waiting for the old man's response, a couple at the fruit stall nearby were also observing him. The main reason was that the old man's voice was a little loud just now, which naturally aroused their curiosity. , all turned their heads and looked over.
After all, drawing talismans does not sound like a common thing, so it is natural for people to be curious. In addition, just as the uncle was surprised, they were also surprised after looking at it. The other party was too young and looked very young. It's mysterious.
"Isn't it hot for this guy to wear so much?" The boyfriend in the couple muttered in a low voice. Looking at Gu Mo's figure, he found that the other person was wearing a sweater and a hood, with his head lowered to completely cover his face. At some point, he looked up at the sky in a daze and found that the afternoon sun was still so hot.
Although the clothes are not too thick, there is no need to wear them like this now. Aren't you afraid of heatstroke in this weather?
And dressed like this, I don’t know if it’s because I’m not afraid of the heat or because my body is cold, or because I can’t see the sun, and because I’m here to buy yellow paper and cinnabar drawing charms... For a moment, the man thought of some horror movies. plot.
His girlfriend didn't answer. He turned around subconsciously and found that her eyes had been staring at that figure, so he quickly reached out and pulled it, and whispered: "Hey, you've come to your senses...what are you looking at."
"Oh..." The girl looked away slightly reluctantly. She always felt that although she couldn't see clearly, there was a special attraction to that person. It was okay when she didn't notice it before, but after she noticed it, she felt that there was something special about her. The sense of presence is like a magnet, your eyes are attracted and you can't move away.
"What's there to see? You can't even see it..."
The man was a little bit amused by this, and murmured. He couldn't help but look over there a few more times, and then his heart suddenly suddenly felt, because for some reason, he suddenly felt that the figure of that person seemed to have become pleasing to the eye. It looks good, and it seems to have a...feeling?
——Gan!
——I am obviously a man, and I have a girlfriend! !
Of course, he did not immediately jump to the conclusion that there was something wrong with the other party. Just like most people, no matter what weird thoughts suddenly pop up in their heads, they would only think that it was because of their own random thoughts, and would not whimsically think that they were influenced by The control and influence of mysterious power is that others are controlling one's own thoughts.
So I just panicked and thought that I must have lost my mind to have such an illusion. It couldn't be that the reason why I always thought that I was heterosexual was because I hadn't met the right person yet!
"Let's go quickly, Xiaoli, don't stand here anymore..."
The man who felt that something was wrong was not willing to admit this possibility. He decisively took the arm of his girlfriend beside him and wanted to leave here first.
"Oh, what are you doing!" The girl raised her eyebrows and tried to break away from his hand. She misunderstood the intention of his behavior and was a little angry, "Chen Xindai! Do you need to be like this? I just took another look and didn't What are you doing! Do you have to be so stingy? Just allow you guys to look at other girls..."
"No, no, that's not what I meant..."
"Then what do you mean!"
Facing the woman's anger, the man looked bitter, but the more anxious he became, the less he knew how to explain it. He couldn't say that he was not worried that his girlfriend would be attracted to that man, but that he was worried that he would be attracted to that man. Stay? This is outrageous to say.
On the other side——
"That's it. I haven't sold it before, but it's well packaged and still very new..."
"Ok, thanks."
Gu Mo interrupted the old man's words and quickly swept his eyes to find the interactive payment option. After confirming, he left the market with the bag of yellow paper, not wanting to stay too long. Especially now that people are coming from all over to join in the fun, he naturally doesn't want to stay even more.
The old man was left looking at the machine that issued the payment prompt with some strangeness, and couldn't help but mutter:
"I haven't even said how much it is, how come this young man knows..."
At the fruit stall two stalls away, a young man and woman were arguing louder and louder, as if they were about to become the center of the already noisy market with people coming and going.
The spectators caught wind of the excitement and gathered here.
The man's face turned green when he saw this scene. He stammered and stammered, trying hard to appease his girlfriend. He wanted to leave here as soon as possible instead of staying there to watch the monkey show.
…………
After going around to the drugstore to buy cinnabar and a stationery store to buy some brushes, Gu Mo was ready to go back.
After getting on a bus, he found a seat in the corner at the very back. He lowered his head, as if he was about to fall asleep on the bus. In fact, he was trying his best to hide his figure and reduce his sense of presence by using what he did in front of him... There was no talking and nothing happened along the way.
Today is not a holiday, and it is not the peak time of commuting at this time, so the bus is not crowded, and basically no one sits in the back row.
He was supposed to go all the way back to the community, but he heard a station name on the way, hesitated for a moment, and decisively got up and got off the bus... The station was right in front of a large hospital, and he had been here before. , naturally I am not here for follow-up consultation now.
The old man's words just now made Gu Mo a little interested. Now that he happened to pass this stop again, he naturally wanted to confirm it.
Whether there is anything magical or special in the real world needs to be confirmed slowly, but for now he can observe a relatively basic situation... to see if there are ghosts, to see what happens to the soul after death, and naturally in the hospital It is the first choice for the easiest access to this aspect.
In the past, he didn't have psychic vision, and there was nothing special about him. Naturally, he couldn't confirm these things when he went in and out of the hospital, but it was different now. All he had to do was let him go and take a look.
Gu Mo tried his best to avoid other people's attention and walked into the hospital door.
Soon, a young man and woman came outside, but they were the same couple who had been arguing at the market. Although it seemed that they were no longer arguing, the atmosphere between them was still a bit stiff.
"This is it... My mother accidentally fell down the day before yesterday. The doctor said she injured her bones. After all, this is what happens when you get older..."
Chen Xindai looked at the hospital in front and said with a wry smile, "People say it's better to stay in the hospital for a few more days, but my mother is not happy and insists on being discharged, so I don't want to bring you to persuade her, she will definitely Consider your opinion..."
"Don't worry, Auntie, I'll leave this matter to me..." The girl still didn't look too good, but when it came to the other person's parents, she still knew the priorities. She agreed immediately, and then looked around: "Wait a minute while I go to the bathroom to touch up my makeup. Don't let her see that we just had a bad time!"
"Okay, okay, go, go, go..."
The man nodded calmly and watched his girlfriend walk to the bathroom in the corridor with her small satchel, then she also sat down on the bench next to her and let out a long sigh.
What does this mean? It’s so baffling...
He thought about what happened before and felt that he was not in a good condition. Why was he thinking so wildly and having such thoughts in his mind at that time? Could it be that I really... can't, definitely not, it's probably because the weather was too hot at that time, and I was in a daze.
Touching the position of his heart, he felt that the inexplicable throbbing seemed to have subsided. Chen Xindai breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the pedestrians hurriedly walking in the corridor again. His eyes looked at the men with a slight hesitation, but this time There is no longer any strange feeling.
Then, just as he felt a little more at ease, his eyes suddenly froze.
