Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 100: Unable to compile a successful talisman

Five days have passed since the Backstreet incident.

Chen Xin's life has been very regular these days, but compared to the summer vacation, he still has a lot less freedom.

Since entering university, Chen Xin's personal time has become a little tight.

There are already many classes to take in the freshman year, and Chen Xin is still in the initial stage of getting to know them. Only after he gets familiar with the teachers will he know which teachers' classes he can skip.

Nowadays, Chen Xin only sleeps five hours a day.

Wake up at 1am and go to bed at am.

The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is to check the "Dictionary of Town Objects" to see if anything has happened. The second thing is to wash up, and then do an hour of physical exercises.

After 6 p.m., excluding the one or two hours he occasionally spends chatting with Li Yong, Yang Shuxian and others, basically the time after 8 p.m. belongs to Chen Xin.

From 8 am to 1 am, I do three things at the same time: typing, reading forums, and learning about folk customs.

Occasionally, after sitting for a long time, I would get up and do some physical exercises to explore whether there are any new combinations among the talismans.

Overall, although some freedom is lost, diversity is increased.

At the moment, Chen Xin thinks it’s pretty good.

That night, after finishing typing, Chen Xin opened the "Compendium of Town Objects" again.

Looking at the three-digit number in the Yin De Points column in the "Compendium of Town Objects", Chen Xin smiled.

158 points!
In the backstreet incident, Chen Xin gained a lot, more than ever before.

The first gain was upgrading Zhuye Stone Town to the Yin Shuai level. Although it took up a full 200 points of Yin De, the sense of security that Brother Ji brought to Chen Xin was unquestionable.

What's more, Brother Ji will get back nearly half of the good karma he earned later.

After the female ghost's body was destroyed by the virtual fire, it brought Chen Xin 80 points of Yinde benefit.

Add to that the 90 points obtained from the ghost money destroyed before.

This female ghost brought a total of 170 points of good karma to Chen Xin.

At the beginning, Li Dazhu's point was around 50 points, which is more than three times that of Li Dazhu.

But Chen Xin estimated that these 170 points of good karma should not all be contributed by the evil female ghost.

According to his conversation with his uncle, this incident was a special one.

Wang Xingping did not get more information about how special it was, but Chen Xin guessed some of it.

The room where the female ghost was located not only contained her body, but also a piece of ghost money.

If there is anything where the sum of the two is greater than one, Chen Xin can accept it.

After all, his staff of mourning and Brother Ji's flame are also a superposition, and even the combination of Chen Xin himself and Brother Ji is a situation where one plus one is greater than two.

However, all of these only add up to 115 points of Yin De, and the extra 43 points were obtained later.

Three of them were obtained at the end of the Backstreet Incident, one was from the pool hall owner, and two were from Choi Sung.

Both of them turned into ghosts and were pecked to death by a rooster in Zhuye Stone Town held by a commissioner of the Public Opinion Bureau.

Including the two in the toilet, the probability of becoming a ghost after death in the Backstreet Incident reaches 66%.

In other words, the last two people who died just happened to catch up with the end of the incident, otherwise Chen Xin felt that those two people would also transform. The probability and speed of turning into ghosts, even if it was because of a female ghost, Chen Xin still felt a little scary.

If this is the reality, the polling bureau will be too busy to handle it.

As for the deaths of those two people, Chen Xin also found out through recalling and questioning Chi Lei.

After Chen Xin left, those people began to wake up one after another. Two of them fought for a Yang Stone. During the fight, they knocked the Yang Stone away.

While trying to steal the Yang Stone, Cui Xing blinded one person and then he killed another person.

Someone came out to help, but was also beaten to death by the blindfolded man. Later, people from the Public Opinion Survey Bureau showed up and Cui Xing was killed.

Chen Xin was mentally prepared for Cui Xing's death, but he was not prepared for Cui Xing to turn into a ghost so quickly after his death.

If he had known, he would have carried Cui Xing on his back to avoid wasting it.

The remaining good karma was gained in the following days.

8 points of Yin De came from Jing Peng and his team's tasks, 7 points came from the mourning stick of the Public Opinion Survey Bureau in Wang Xingping's hand, and 25 points came from various tests of the Public Opinion Survey Bureau.

You wouldn’t know until you calculated it. After Chen Xin calculated it, he found that except for the Yinde points he gained from participating in the incident, the rest of the Yinde points all came from the Public Opinion Survey Bureau!

The placenta sac from Fan Xiaosi and the ghost cat figurine from Wang Zhibo did not provide any good karma for Chen Xin.

After this comparison, it is indeed the national team that has to win.

Thinking of what Wang Xingping said about the Public Opinion Survey Bureau system, Chen Xin had some sense of approval.

What would the world be like without the national team's desperate efforts?
OK……

This was all the Yin De points and talismans he gained. In addition, Chen Xin also obtained 11 Yang Stones.

After the backstreet incident, Wei Junrui did not ask him for stones again.

Chen Xin asked Wang Xingping, and he said that Yangshi was not easily available in the Public Opinion Survey Bureau. Each one required 1 point, and only team leaders were eligible to redeem it.

A fierce ghost is only worth 5 to 10 points, so the Yang Stones in Chen Xin's hand are roughly equivalent to a fierce ghost.

But not every team leader can use Yangshi, and different team leaders have different fighting styles.

Wang Xingping told Chen Xin not to worry and just take the protective gear with him.

Because no matter how much is consumed this time, the Public Opinion Survey Bureau will replenish Wei Junrui.

For the sake of his colleague Wang Xingping, Wei Junrui would not take the Yangshi from Chen Xin.

This can be considered a tacit understanding among the commissioners of the Public Opinion Survey Bureau.

Wang Xingping didn't know where the Yangshi came from, he only knew that it was the research result of the Public Opinion Survey Bureau.

This made Chen Xin temporarily give up the idea of ​​using Yang Stone to make a Zhuye Stone Town.

The above are all the gains that Chen Xin can use at present. There is one gain that he cannot use, and that is ghost money.

After the backstreet incident, the ghost money became exactly the same as the photo.

During the day it is just an ordinary ghost banknote that cannot be destroyed, but at night you can see black gas under the net sieve.

Because there is no Yin power, Chen Xin doesn't know what will happen when the ghost money is triggered by Yin power.

However, neither the ghost money nor the photos could be destroyed by the Yin Shuai-level Ji Ge, which surprised Chen Xin.

It is known that all evil ghosts are obedient in front of Brother Ji, but just a photo and a ghost banknote can remain intact under Brother Ji's claws.

Could it be that the nature of the photos and ghost money is even higher than that of the evil-looking ghosts?
Unable to come up with anything, Chen Xin could only use the placenta sac to put the two things into the "Compendium of Magical Objects".

……

After taking stock of his recent gains and losses, Chen Xin took out a piece of draft paper and began to write and draw.

After a long time, Chen Xin looked at the draft paper and wrote the contents of the talisman based on the "Ghost Money Incident". He opened the "Compendium of Talismans" and spent 60 points of Yin De to unlock the seventh page.

After transcribing the content, Chen Xin began to wait anxiously.

But after the handwriting on the seventh page disappeared, it never appeared again.

Chen Xin shook his head helplessly.

After taking the draft paper and erasing the contents, he began to rethink. The success of the Nether Raccoon figurine gave Chen Xin an idea for his own creation of a talisman.

It just so happens that this is another supernatural event that I personally participated in. Although I did not fabricate any talismans during the event, this event has already happened and was real.

It generally meets the requirements for compilation.

But the content that he had prepared for several days failed to succeed, which made Chen Xin a little disappointed.

What he wanted to record on page seven this time was ghost money!

He wanted to make the ghost money into a talisman, so that he could use it, and even a new ghost money would appear in the "Compendium of Treasures".

Even though only he knows about this talisman and only he can make it.

But for Chen Xin, figuring out the secret of the ghost money or photos may be more valuable than inventing a more popular talisman.

However, although the idea is good, it is much more difficult to implement.

The existing rules for ghost money and photos are that they can only be triggered by Yin power. Chen Xin wanted to change this rule, so he added "triggered by the power of Qi and blood" to the content.

It failed.

The key is that Chen Xin still doesn’t know what caused this failure.

Perhaps it is against the rules to trigger the Ghost Money with the power of Qi and blood, perhaps the origin and background compiled by Chen Xin does not meet the requirements, or perhaps the Ghost Money cannot be used as a talisman at all.

Anything is possible.

In the next hour, Chen Xin tried three more ways of writing.

Among these three ways of writing, the condition of 'triggered by the power of qi and blood' has not changed, and the other contents were changed by Chen Xin.

But all three ways of writing failed.

Chen Xin had no choice but to change 'triggered by qi and blood power' to 'triggered by blood'.

Although it is a little more troublesome than "triggering with the power of qi and blood", it is at least a method.

But after changing it, it still didn't work.

Chen Xin tried to use saliva again, but failed.

With water, failed.

With urine, failed...

Apart from triggering it with Yin power, Chen Xin tried all the convenient and feasible methods he could think of, but all failed.

Finally, Chen Xin came to the conclusion.

Either the problem is not in the triggering method, or it can only be triggered by Yin force.

But he couldn't write "triggered by Yin force" on it.

What's the point if this succeeds?
The original intention was to avoid this condition, and now this condition still applies when it is turned into a talisman. Isn't that a waste of a page?

In frustration, Chen Xin ended the attempt.

After putting away the "Compendium of Town Objects", he no longer felt like writing.

Fortunately, I have some manuscripts saved, so I can relax for a day.

Chen Xin opened the forum and began to browse.

Recently, "Tiancan Dique" has rarely spoken, and when he does speak, it's just a few words. I don't know what he is doing.

However, Chen Xin saw another person who might be the big boss.

"Fourth Uncle"

Although the comments of "Fourth Uncle" made the posters uncomfortable, once you put them into the context of "what this post says is true", the words of "Fourth Uncle" will have a bit of a harsh tone.

When faced with supernatural events, it seems that ordinary people can only do as "Fourth Uncle" said, either run or wait for death.

After Chen Xin followed "Fourth Uncle", he went to his homepage. Surprisingly, Chen Xin found a post that "Fourth Uncle" had replied to.

The poster of that post was named "Haozi" and the content was very familiar to Chen Xin, as it was clearly the incident that Huang Minghao experienced.

But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Chen Xin saw several acquaintances under this post!

One is "The Heaven is Incomplete and the Earth is Incomplete". After seeing it, Chen Xin understood why Huang Minghao had the Zhuye Stone Town.

In addition to "天残地缺" there is another ID... "叶"!
Ye Shan actually replied to this post, but not to Huang Minghao, but to "Fourth Uncle".

"Ye Zi: @Fourth Uncle, Boss, I have a question here, can I chat with you privately?"

Looking at that reply, Chen Xin fell into deep thought.

Ye Shan replied "Fourth Uncle" to Huang Minghao's post. Why?
Chen Xin quickly thought of Scorpion's death.

Could it be that Ye Shan knew what Scorpion had done in Huang Minghao’s house before?

Chen Xin thought about it and felt that this possibility was not high.

Ye Shan was still at home when Scorpion was smashed to pieces by Brother Ji.

Unless Ye Shan installed cameras in Huang Minghao's house, it would be impossible for her to know this.

"But why did Ye Shan look for "Fourth Uncle"? "

Chen Xin frowned and thought for a while, but still couldn't figure out the train of thought of this crazy woman.

Continue to look through the records of "Fourth Uncle".

After reading it all, Chen Xin discovered that this "Fourth Uncle" was most likely aware of the existence of supernatural events and had a certain understanding of them, but his replies in the forum were useless to Chen Xin.

Just when Chen Xin was about to close "Fourth Uncle"'s homepage, he discovered that "Fourth Uncle" had made the latest reply.

Chen Xin clicked on the post titled "When I ride my bike through the bridge tunnel, I always feel like there is something on the back seat of my bike."

"Fourth Uncle"'s reply was very simple, just two words: private chat.

After seeing this, Chen Xin shook his head in disappointment.

……

It was already the next day when Fan Xiaosi received a reply to the private message on the forum.

After seeing the address sent by the other party, he took out the placenta sac from the box, put it into his cloth bag and headed towards the target location in the private message.

Whether it will succeed or not depends on this time.

……

PS: Ask for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets~
(づ￣3￣)づ~bowl

　(￣３￣)a：

　　Two updates today, 6,000 words.

　　The manuscripts in stock have run out, and I need to save them for a few days to get back to the three updates of 9,000 words. However, the rule of extra updates based on monthly tickets is still in place. After reaching the goal, they will be sent out the next day, so don't worry.

　　After all, it is a long novel, so it takes some planning to write it well.

　　If there are no drafts saved, the author will easily fail to write well and the plot will be rough, so please forgive me.

　　Finally, if you have votes, please vote. I am only a few dozen votes away from being on the list. Thank you~
