The three people watching on the side could not help but show contempt. Fen, who was the least polite, even said: "I have been busy for a long time and just made a deceptive thing."
Guessing the heads and tails of coins is already considered the most classic game among gamblers on earth. In the Lost World, coins with two sides are not very common, but some quick-sighted scammers will still use this gambling method to defraud small amounts of money in some rural areas or where the lower class people gather. Using fine money as a gambling tool also has the purpose of showing off wealth and gaining people's trust.
The reason why it is said to be a lie is because of their sharp eyesight, these people can know whether the thing they caught is heads or tails every time; and because of their quick hands, even if the side they caught is guessed, they can still change the result. In short, this kind of trick is just a little trick that is not even considered a mediocre trick in the eyes of a magician.
It’s just that I, as a teacher, am really hopeless. If you want to deceive people, you don't even want to practice the technique, and just make this kind of two-faced coin. This makes people have to despise him.
As for someone who is baptized with contempt, of course he will not be unaware of it. Lin pouted at this, wondering what to say to these ignorant guys.
He weighed the coins with his index thumb and held them high against the moonlight. To be honest, Lin is both satisfied and dissatisfied with the finished piece.
What I am satisfied with is that the coin has human heads on both sides, and it looks flawless when made. When weighed, the weight is only slightly heavier than the original coin. This is because the density of Gaia metal itself is higher than that of gold, so the same volume will naturally be heavier. But after all, the portion is not much, so unless the two are compared together, it should not be noticeable.
What I'm not satisfied with is, who knows if the runes pressed inside will work? Luck is not like other amplification aids. It can have an intuitive performance, allowing people to observe the difference in results. Is it possible to carry this gold coin and jump off the cliff to see if you can meet the old man or pick up the Nine Yang Magic?
And after completing this coin, there was no strange appearance from the sky, nor was there any thunder or lightning. It's silent and confusing. So Lin subconsciously had a feeling that this was not something he should carry with him.
This kind of gratuitous sixth sense would definitely not have been taken seriously back then on Earth. But here in Midi, we can't take it seriously. There are too many mysterious things in this world that cannot be explained by science. Ignoring these signs that appear for no reason can lead to death at worst or disaster at worst.
So Lin found a small bag specifically for magic props. This is made of a special magic cloth that can stabilize the power changes of stored objects. For some unstable magic props, storing them in a small bag can ensure that they will not explode while being carried.
As for those who are on the verge of erupting, don't rely on such gadgets to suppress them. The correct approach is to throw them far away.
He poured out the magic stone that was originally stored inside and put this lucky coin into it. After tying the bag, he threw it into Halumi's arms. Although the girl reacted quickly and took the thing down, she looked disgusted and said, "Teacher, you don't even dare to take it with you. This thing won't bring any misfortune."
A good intention was eaten by a dog. Lin was so angry that he didn't want to curse, and said viciously: "Take it with you, and when I ask you for it, you can bring it to me. If you lose it, you will probably not be able to get pocket money for a hundred years before you can afford the compensation." .”
"Ah, I don't want it, I don't want it! Give this back to you."
During the Tower of the Great Sage period, there was no place for money, so the two apprentices were not given half a dime. At most, they are allowed to pick one or two things they want when they go shopping with the Chamber of Commerce every month. Before the update, someone had no conditions to give it, and the two apprentices were young and didn't know how to use it.
You can really plan your own money and use it freely after returning to Wulian City. In the first few days, when the girls saw someone in need at home, they would first ask their teacher for money. After asking several times, Lin simply set up a public fund and put a money box. There is no need for them to report some small items with a small amount. Also give the two girls pocket money for them to use separately.
Apart from their own interests, what the two little girls spent the most on were those weird sweets. The world of Lost World is no better than the Earth in the 21st century. Before time travel, people wished they could be as far away from sugar as possible. But in Midi, all kinds of sweets are still rare. Most people who want to get diabetes don't have the conditions yet.
In any case, with the money at their disposal, they can buy what they want, and the two girls can no longer turn off their lust.
Maybe they are not so greedy as to sell their body or dignity, but just want some luxuries that may not be useful. But when it comes to the possibility of going back to the era when money was unknown, the result is like Haloumi now, with a lot of runny nose and tears, and wants to put the hot potato in her hand back into her teacher's hand.
It's a pity that the teacher's score has to be displayed at this time. When Halumi saw that she could not convince this hard-hearted and heartless man, she could only turn around and ask for help. Kaya, who was awake a moment ago, had wrapped herself tightly and fell asleep at this moment, and snoring could be heard.
Knowing that her companions were hopeless, Halumi looked to her sister again for help. But in her eyes, the omnipotent sister said with some schadenfreude: "Don't make things disappear, just keep them well."
"But...but..." Knowing that crying was useless, Halumi had stopped crying long ago, but she was still sniffling. At this time, the Lich added another fatal attack, and Fen said: "Your personality is a little too laid-back. Speaking of which, I was surprised that your teacher didn't throw you into the academy to train together. Take advantage of this. At this time, tighten your skin a little. It will be good for you in the future."
The collapsed girl rolled up her blanket and nestled next to the fire. She didn't know whether she was crying or sleeping, or whether she fell asleep while crying.
Fen looked at someone with a wicked smile and said, "The treasure that I finally made is just in her hands, okay?"
"Oh, you can feel that it is a good thing?" Lin was only interested in the Lich's evaluation, so he asked. Fen shrugged and said noncommittally: "To be honest, I can't decide how that coin makes me feel. Is it good, bad, or not good or bad at all? The only thing that can be determined is Yes, it won’t hurt to take it with you.”
"Well, that's it." After pondering, Lin La opened her notepad and wrote down the record. While saying: "I have a feeling that I shouldn't carry that coin with me. It has an indescribable smell. Since that girl helped make it, let's keep it with her. I think this It’s a better way to deal with it.”
"Oh. Do you believe in fate? It seems that you do."
Lin and the lich had already had several conversations that were closer to philosophy. Based on past experience, Fen doesn't like too many unnecessary gags in such conversations. So Lin thought about it carefully, organized his words, and then said:
"The so-called destiny seems to be accidental, but in fact it is inevitable driven by a bunch of accidents. And those accidents are inevitable driven by other accidents. So the so-called uncertainty of fate actually has a context. Follow the rules. So if you ask a question like 'Do I believe in fate?', I will say that I do, but it is not without reason. Whatever you sow, you will eventually get what you want."
"Well, you once mentioned that it is the so-called theory of cause and effect." Fen remembered some concepts in Buddhism when talking about the history of religions on earth. Maybe someone doesn't understand it very deeply, but it is enough inspiration for the top intellectuals in another world.
That night, they did not go into depth on such a topic. Lin also went to bed early after packing up his tools for making lucky coins.
The next day, everyone was speechless. Lin drove the car on the road.
A certain lich didn't like riding horses very much, so she arranged a comfortable seat on the carriage, covered with soft cushions. While typing the program code, I followed the guidance of others and traveled aimlessly.
The two wild girls didn't run around this morning. Riding horses, following the teacher's car from a distance. Halumi would touch her arms from time to time to confirm that the fatal thing was still there.
Seeing another fork in the road ahead, Lin drove and stopped. The Lich, who noticed the car stopped, looked back and said with a smile: "Hey, it's a fork in the road again. Where are you going this time? My Lord Magician."
Without thinking, Lin shouted towards the back: "Girl, bring me my lucky coin."
But the girl replied feebly: "I know." As she drove her horse forward and handed over the coins in her bag, she felt like running away, but she was also curious about what her teacher was going to do.
The man who took the coin put it on his forehead and muttered a few words. After saying that, it was a bomb.
With four pairs of eyes staring at it, the lucky coin with a double head drew a perfect parabola in the air and landed lightly on the ground. It was on the left side of the carriage and on the road heading to the left.
Wiping the tail ring on his left hand, Lin used a Boka Mo Xiao giant palm technique to retrieve the coins that fell on the ground. After wiping off the dust and handing it back to Halumi, Lin said: "Since it is fate's instruction, let's go to the left."
This series of actions actually made the three women a little stunned. Halumi was the first to react and complained loudly: "How can this count? If you keep throwing it to the left, then we can't always go to the left."
Lin was prepared for what they were doing and said, "If you think this is not good, I'll throw a coin and decide the direction."
"Just throw it." As if out of anger, Halumi deliberately faced to the right, stretched out his finger and threw the coin.
The parabola in the sky also attracted the attention of four people. In full view of everyone, the coin that fell to the ground unexpectedly hit a stone; the coin failed to fall safely on the ground, but instead changed the direction of the force and stood on the ground rolling. He rolled back to the road on the left in one breath, only to hit the small gravel on the ground again. He couldn't roll further, but fell directly to the ground.
Lin burst into laughter at this dramatic change. Halumi's face was livid, looking at the coins rolling back to the left road. Kaya, however, had an expression of confusion and curiosity, and couldn't figure out why there was such a result. Only Fen, with a serious look on her face, was thinking seriously about what had just happened.
