How can there be such a strong superpower?

Luo Shan: "..."

"Ji Xin is standing up for Tang Yu, Lao Luo."

the other side.

Xia Yue smiled upon hearing this and said, "This isn't something you see often, so be careful. No matter how busy you are, don't forget the promise you made... After all, Tang Yu is still our colleague, and we are her guarantors. Even though she's a bit foolish, it's scary when a stubborn fool holds a grudge. You don't want her to take us to Kunlun to seek justice, do you?"

"……Understood."

Luo Shan felt a little embarrassed when facing the gazes of the three Tiance people from Tiance Mansion.

Ji Xin glanced at him and didn't continue the topic, but prepared to talk about the next thing.

But before she could open her mouth, her phone suddenly vibrated.

Ji Xin was silent for a moment, picked up the phone on his thigh and took a look, then raised his head and looked at Xia Yue and others: "Those two people from the Chamomile Alliance, Ivan and Yevgeny, said they would postpone their trip to the imperial capital and plan to leave in early September."

"why?"

Xia Yue asked casually, "Weren't they eager to see the captive Anna?"

Ji Xin frowned: "I don't know, they just said it was a decision made by the top leaders of the Ross Church, it's a bit strange..."

"Isn't this a small matter?"

Taishan suddenly interrupted and said, "Let's talk about the leak of the Heavenly Punishment Weapon."

Things related to the Chamomile Alliance are actually not small.

But I just heard so much exciting news.

It seems insignificant.

"..."

Ji Xin thought about it and had to put down his phone and talk about the leak of the Heavenly Punishment Weapon.

……

at the same time.

Twelveth floor, rest area.

The two sisters sat side by side.

After Lin Ying finished the previous topic, she looked at her sister and suddenly asked, "Haven't you decided on your major yet?"

"There are a few options... but I don't want to be too far away from you guys."

Lin Wan swung her graceful legs and gently kicked the floor tiles: "Sister, which city will you and brother-in-law live in next?"

"Pengcheng or the imperial capital, or my hometown."

Lin Ying replied, then continued, "But this has nothing to do with your aspirations. What you should do now is to study peacefully."

"Pengcheng and the Imperial Capital..."

Lin Wan obviously didn't listen to her sister. After repeating the city her sister mentioned, a thoughtful expression appeared on her fair face.

The hometowns of the three of them are definitely not suitable, as there are no good universities there.

Lin Ying looked at Lin Wan's fair profile and suddenly suggested, "If you can't decide, I can take you to various schools. For example, you are not far from the famous Jinling University now."

"No."

Lin Wan came back to her senses and shook her head: "You are not here... How about this, didn't my brother-in-law say that he would go to the imperial capital in a while? Take me to visit the school in the imperial capital."

"……also."

Lin Ying thought about it carefully and did not refuse.

……

Xuanwu Lake.

Although Yevgeny had hung up the phone long ago.

But his body was still trembling slightly.

He was still immersed in the phone call just now, too excited to control himself.

...Talk to the Patriarch!

Yevgeny roared inwardly.

the other side.

Ivan was at the other extreme, his expression looking somewhat ugly.

He slowly put down his phone and looked at the lake with a frown.

Yevgeny noticed Ivan's movements and suppressed his excitement. "Have you notified the Tiance Mansion?"

"We did notify them, and they didn't object."

Ivan nodded, then hesitated for a moment: "But..."

"Just inform me."

Yevgeny interrupted him directly and said fanatically, "Even if we die, we must not let down the Patriarch's expectations!!!"

"..."

Ivan was speechless and said nothing more. Instead, he turned his head and looked at the shimmering lake with a little worry.

……

Starting from the center of Jinling City, the imperial capital is a full thousand kilometers away.

This famous ancient city is still bustling.

But obviously not everywhere.

For example...university is not.

Because it is the holiday, compared to the start of school, the major universities are not deserted, but they are certainly not as lively as before.

Haidian District, Normal University.

After lunch, Mi Jie walked lazily on the road, preparing to stroll back to the dormitory.

But just as she started, she saw a familiar figure. She was slightly startled, then immediately quickened her pace to catch up, calling out the other person's name.

"Katerina!"

Hear sounds.

The tall woman with golden hair turned her head... She had a typical Slavic appearance, and combined with her name, almost everyone could guess where this international student came from.

There are many international students in Mi Jie's school, but there are still very few international students from the Chamomile Alliance.

So Mi Jie recognized her at the first moment.

"Didn't you say you were going back home?"

Mi Jie looked at Katerina, who had a high nose bridge, and asked curiously.

The woman named Katerina looked at the petite woman in front of her, who, in Chinese, was described as having "social compulsion," and was silent for a moment before suddenly smiling. "Ms. Mi Jie, I did return to my country, but I had something urgent to attend to, so I came back first."

Mi Jie became even more curious: "What's the matter?"

"Let's talk as we walk."

Katerina stared at Mijie for a while, suddenly smiled again, and turned away.

"also."

Mi Jie nodded and was about to follow, but suddenly noticed that a piece of paper suddenly fell out of the bag that Katerina was carrying.

She was quick-witted and subconsciously reached out to catch the paper floating in the air, then looked at Katerina: "Your stuff..."

Halfway through the sentence.

Mi Jie suddenly got stuck.

Because there was no sign of Katerina.

"Eh?"

Mi Jie looked around but didn't find any familiar figure, and felt a little confused.

Not even five seconds, where did he suddenly go?

As she thought about it, she looked at the paper in her hand and read out what was written on it softly: "Rule One..."

And just read out three words.

Her body suddenly stiffened, and her originally bright eyes were instantly replaced by whites.

"Rule one...Rule one...Rule one..."

then.

Mi Jie kept repeating the same words and started moving forward like a zombie.

She rolled her eyes, took the paper, and started wandering around the school...

Chapter 244: The student who disappeared in the imperial capital

244.

2023-12-15

The next few days.

Chen Lusi's life became regular.

During the day, he stayed in the Tiance Mansion branch and drew talismans.

In the evening, he accompanied the two sisters out to complete Lin Wan's graduation trip.

The two sisters didn't show up in front of him in their swimsuits again, but the three of them lived together.

Probably because the two sisters had stayed there before while wearing their swimsuits, Chen Lusi felt that there was no need to worry about it... so he canceled the room that the two sisters had originally booked.

As for Xia Panqiu and Wu You...ever since they tried the talisman that day, they have developed a strong interest in it.

I have been following Chen Lusi almost every day these days.

But after a few days.

Chen Lusi has become somewhat numb from drawing talismans...

At the beginning.

Most of the talismans that the Taoist priests took out were trigger-type, which means that the effects could be seen directly after they were drawn, such as the earth-shrinking talisman and the body-immobilizing talisman.

But then, after most of the trigger-type talismans were drawn, several Taoist priests began to take out some... talismans whose effects were not very obvious, or perhaps talismans that simply recorded the names of gods.

The explanation they gave was that those were talismans needed for praying, warding off evil, and performing rituals.

As for what are fasting and offering rituals, and what are prayers for blessings.

The explanation given by several Taoist priests is that it is a religious ceremony now, but it used to be a large-scale man-made miracle, a special ritual unique to Taoism.

As for more, several people couldn't explain it clearly.

Because the Taoist tradition had been cut off for so long, none of them had actually received similar training.

So as to what extent the ritual can achieve... there is really no clear understanding.

In fact, during this period, in addition to coming to the Tiance Mansion branch to draw talismans with Chen Lusi... several Taoist priests have also been rummaging through boxes and drawers, looking for things left by their ancestors, and began to work on reviving the glory of Taoism.

However, once some things are out of date, it is not easy to pick them up again.

Therefore, even though the four famous Taoist mountains are working together, the progress is not fast.

In fact, let alone the rituals and prayers, even the talismans were still being checked and completed...

In addition, although Xia Yue and Ji Xin agreed to Chen Lusi's restoration of the Taoist tradition, they did not want the matter to be known to the whole city. After the Taoist priests were ecstatic, they were unwilling to rashly expose the news under such circumstances.

If they want to keep it secret, they can't let too many people know...so a few Taoist priests have to do it themselves.

In this case, the speed will definitely not be fast.
