C7

I rubbed my eyes and checked again. The number was still 514.

All along the way, I walked straight. I didn't get on the elevator or take the stairs, but somehow arrived upstairs.

His master had said that ghost energy could obstruct one's vision, so he thought that it would be fine if he just ignited the lotus flower lamp. It seemed that he needed to be more vigilant in the future.

When I returned to my room, it was only 3 in the morning. I couldn't fall asleep after being tormented by this ghost, and for some reason, after self-exterminating that vengeful spirit, my entire body felt a little hot. Coupled with the fact that my bedroom was already warm from the summer, I felt like I was sitting in a steamer.

I turned the temperature of the air conditioner down to its lowest level, then picked up my backpack and carefully examined it.

This bag belongs to Master. In the past, whenever he went out to do something, I always carried this bag on his back. This time, he didn't bring it with him and instead left it with me.

I was in too much of a hurry to leave before, so I didn't have the time to see what exactly my master had left for me. It was only today when I met this dirty thing that I remembered that I was still not prepared enough.

With a trace of doubt, I rummaged through my bag.

In addition to the lotus flower lamp, there was also the Eight Trigrams Disc. These two items were commonly used by masters. There was also a worn-out ink bucket, a peach wood sword that was cut in half, and some other items like cinnabar brush and ink talisman paper.

"Hmm? What is this? "

I pulled out a yellowed book from under my bag. It was made of sheepskin.

"A book?"

The only thing left on the cover of the sheepskin book was a hieroglyph. The other half seemed to have been erased by something.

I don't know why, but the temperature has dropped to sixteen degrees, and I still feel like I'm in the oven.

Enduring the growing heat, I opened the first page.

"East Flowery East Peak, Nine Green Palace. The Emperor's Imperial Decree, the nine old celestial children … Isn't this the Nine Dragons Enchantment of the Green Palace? "

I widened my eyes in shock. The page in front of me was filled with all kinds of incantations written with runes. The handwriting was vigorous and powerful, giving off a sharp aura.

I don't know why, but with just a glance, my body felt much cooler.

I frowned, a little puzzled. I continued to look down, and with every word that passed between my eyes, the temperature of my body grew colder. After saying that sentence, my entire body felt as though I had fallen into an icehouse, and my fingers became stiff from the cold.

I quickly closed the book. The shock in my heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

"East Flowerland, East Peak, Ninety Green Palace, Imperial Decree of the Emperor, nine Immortal Children."

As he repeated the first spell, he actually felt enlightened. He was unable to say anything about this feeling, as if he had realized something, but he couldn't say it out loud.

"Perhaps I can now use the Nine Dragons Enchantment of the Green Palace."

I fantasized about it in my heart. But, in the blink of an eye, I remembered that this rune was a blue talisman. Even master's blue talisman destroyed half of his cultivation. I had to be careful.

Carefully putting the sheepskin back into my bag, I sat on the edge of the bed, lost in my thoughts.

I hadn't seen this book in over a decade, and neither had my master mentioned it until he left, when he gave it to me, in addition to the strange series of reactions I had just received.

I sensed that this sheepskin book was most likely a kind of magic tool.

Some people might find it strange that a book could become a magical equipment.

Actually, it was very simple. The so called words were not just simple words.

Once the word was given meaning, it could become something else.

Just like the universe, yin and yang itself represented yin and yang of the world. With some sort of augmentation, these two words alone could wipe out all evil spirits.

This book could very well have been added to it, or it could be understood as having been enlightened, having done some legal work, or whatever one wanted to say.

Rubbing my itchy eyes, I hid my backpack. Even though ordinary people might not be able to recognize magic tools, it would be too late for regret if I was stolen and lost like trash.

Trembling, I turned off the air conditioning and walked out of the living room while rubbing my eyes. The room next door was open and Ma Qiushi had already left at some point. Looking at the time, it was already 8 in the morning.

I looked at my bag in surprise. I suppressed the shock in my heart. It was obvious that my mana had increased. I felt that I was able to use spells that I was unable to use previously.

Since that was the case, he might as well buy some materials and try it out. It would also be a good idea to replenish some of the red sand and talisman paper.

Returning to the bedroom, I connected the second-hand smart phone that my master bought for me to the internet, and wanted to see if I could find a store selling these things.

What a coincidence, I managed to find a coffin shop on the map.

It was an old shop called the Wood Officer's Wealth.

Although the comments weren't too good, like how this place is haunted and lousy and so on and so forth, but I don't know where I'm going or where I can find other birthday shops, I'll just do my best here.

After taking note of the address of the store, a taxi stopped in front of me the moment I stepped out of the school.

"Buddy, where are you going so early?"

The driver was very cordial and his face was brimming with a cheerful smile. However, the scar on his face made his smile look very strange.

I smiled and nodded in response, then opened the door and got in.

The driver smiled even more happily as he took out a pack of gold and white sand and asked if I smoked. After being rejected by me, he didn't order a cigarette himself, but instead started the car to exchange greetings with me.

"Fellow student, let me tell you, don't look at how fierce I am. When it comes to familiar roads, no one dares to say that I'm number two in this city …"

Looking at the bragging driver, I hung up a polite smile on my face and asked, "Master, do you know that the Mingshu Workshop …"

"Creak ~ ~ ~"

Before he finished his sentence, the driver fiercely stepped on the brakes …

It was a good thing it wasn't fast, or I would have smashed the windshield and flown out by now. I was about to scold him when I turned to see the driver looking at me in horror.

"Ming, Ming Fang, no, little brother, do you live over there?"

The driver suddenly stuttered, fear in his eyes, his other hand ready to open the door.

I couldn't help but look doubtfully at the driver in front of me. The place that I was talking about was indeed a little strange, but there was no need to be so afraid.

"No, I'm just interested. I want to take a look."

The driver was relieved to see me shake my head, but he didn't start the car.

The driver looked around, as if he was afraid someone would overhear his next conversation, then whispered to me, "Little brother, if there's nothing else, I think you'd better not go there. That place is very strange."
