Chapter 14: Spirit Expelling Talisman
As he spoke, he came to another department - the weapon refining team.
The Item Refining Group is affiliated to the Props Department, which mainly uses supernatural powers to refine props, such as talismans, elixirs, treasures, flying swords, etc., as well as the storage equipment mentioned just now. Mainly used by people with special abilities in the group.
There is also an equipment group under the props department, which is the scientific research equipment department that Mr. Qian just disliked. It mainly develops and produces some technological products, such as laser guns, wireless communicators, anesthesia watches worn by John Woo, camera glasses, etc.
However, recently the equipment team has been engaged in innovation and fusion, thinking about combining the things of the equipment refining team with high-tech products to create some new technology products.
The weapon refining team is quite interested. They may belong to the R&D department and they cooperate very well. They have also successfully produced a product like the Talisman Gun. Although it is not very practical, it is a successful product at least.
But Mr. Qian felt that it was neither fish nor fowl, and he was full of disgust towards the equipment group.
In Lin Fan's situation, the technology department has nothing to do with her. She only needs to take him to the superpower department.
After so many years of development, various departments have also summarized a set of ability identification procedures to quickly identify the abilities of new people. As long as you go through it once, you will know clearly what kind of powers you have, and those who don't have them are naturally ordinary people.
The people who can be brought back to the special agency are all selected by the special agents after careful investigation, research, and screening. None of them have passed the final test as ordinary people. It's just that some of the abilities were too useless, so I had to let them go.
The Special Affairs Office is very confident about this appraisal process, and so is John Woo.
The decoration styles of the Weapon Refining Group and the Immortal Cultivation Department are somewhat similar. They both look a bit antique, which may be related to the type of business they conduct. Compared to the Immortal Cultivation Department, there are many more computers on the table of the Artifact Refining Team. While walking through the middle, Lin Fan saw someone looking at the talisman on the computer...
Is that a talisman? Although it wasn't yellow paper with red characters, the pattern of the ghostly talisman was similar to what she had seen in the movie.
“I thought the talismans were based on those tattered ancient books, but it turns out that they can also be read on a computer.” Lin Fan sighed.
Wu Yusen listened and explained: "The computers here are only connected to the intranet, and they are all things in the database. The contents in the database are also left by the predecessors. After all, you also said that those books They are all in tatters and difficult to preserve.”
"Are your computers only connected to the intranet?"
"Ordinary workspaces are only connected to the intranet. You need to apply to connect to the external network. However, special services and some departments that require work can connect to the external network. Some The computers of the department leaders are also connected to the external network. However, both the computers and the phones are monitored 24 hours a day, mainly to prevent leaks. "
Lin Fan's first reaction was a little disgusting, but after thinking about it, he understood. She knew that some military organizations seemed to need to monitor phone calls and conduct closed management.
The Special Office is not under closed management, but many people feel that there is no difference between underground and above ground and are unwilling to go out. Like the Immortal Cultivation Club that Lin Fan went to just now, if it were leaked to the outside, it would cause an uproar in society. Not to mention that the Special Institution is far more than just a cultivation department.
“So when working in a special agency, the first rule is confidentiality.” John Woo emphasized. "Everything is done under the premise of confidentiality. Only when the confidentiality regulations are observed, the things done are meaningful. Otherwise, no matter how great the credit is, they will be cleared and even held accountable. Newcomers must pay special attention to this. ”
"Hey, Angkor, where are you training new people?" A man asked.
"No, we are still going through the process. Is the whole team leader here?" The leader of the weapon refining team is named Quan Yingdong, who is slightly younger than John Woo. I have just been promoted to team leader and have little friendship, so calling me team leader is the most appropriate thing.
"Yes. He just walked away. You go to his office first and wait. I will go find him and come back." The man said enthusiastically.
Wu Yusen thanked him and led Lin Fan to the team leader's office.
The office door was open, and there was no one inside. Compared to the empty office of Sister Xu of Business Team 4, the office of all team leaders can be considered crowded and messy.
Office desks, bookshelves, coffee tables, sofas, everything as far as the eye can see is filled with things. There are books, papers, scrolls, cloth, stones, iron blocks... There are also several shovels and hoes standing in the corner of the room...
How can the word "chaos" be so bad.
The two of them didn't know what to do at the door of the office, so they simply stood outside and waited.
"It turns out that this is not the case here. Maybe the team leader just took over the refining team and was a little busy and didn't have time to sort it out." Probably because he was afraid of leaving a bad impression on Lin Fan, Wu Yusen specifically explained .
At this moment, a bearded man hurriedly ran up from a distance. He saw John Woo and two people standing at the door, and he began to apologize from afar: "Sorry, sorry."
< br>
Perhaps it was because of his unfamiliar relationship with John Woo, or perhaps because of his personality, Quan Yingdong was particularly polite.
He rushed into the office, pushed the things piled on the sofa and coffee table to the side, and made two seats available for people. He hurriedly greeted the two of them to come in, and shouted outside, "Let's go." Someone brings tea.
Wu Yusen did not expect Quan Yingdong to act like this. Just as he was thinking about finding another excuse to explain to Lin Fan, he saw her go in first and sit on the sofa. It was right. Lin Fan had been standing even after going to two departments. He must be very tired by now.
He sighed and walked in and sat down, not wanting to worry so much.
The tea soon came, and Quan Yingdong also cleared the things on his desk to the ground next to him. Smoothing down his messy hair, he sat on the office chair and said, "I'm sorry, I've been a little busy lately and haven't had time to clean up. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Wu Yusen was polite to him and got down to business: "I just went to Sister Xu's place and she didn't take the talisman. Is it up to you to do it?"
While chatting in the car before, Wu Yusen suspected Lin Fan's health There was another person inside, but he didn't dare to reveal it to Lin Fan. I'm afraid that if the person inside has a sense of the outside world and knows that he will do something uncontrollable after being exposed.
This situation of one person and two souls generally has two possibilities. One is supernatural. To put it simply, it can be regarded as "ghost possessed". It doesn’t have to be ghosts, spirits, or monsters.
In short, there is another spirit body in Lin Fan, controlling her body when she is unconscious. The other is psychological. Lin Fan has a dual personality, and she doesn't know that she has another personality. Considering that Lin Fan suffers from mental illness and has not recovered for many years, and his life is painful, this possibility is also very high.
So early this morning, Wu Yusen took Lin Fan to Business Department 4 to show Sister Xu. He didn't dare to tell Lin Fan that this department was also called the Supernatural Department.
Sister Xu has yin and yang eyes.
If Lin Fan is possessed by a spiritual body, she can see through it at a glance.
Later, in order to confirm whether Lin Fan had supernatural abilities and whether he could sense or see ghosts, Sister Xu invited many spirits to circle around Lin Fan.
When Lin Fan said that he felt a little cold, Sister Xu thought that Lin Fan had special sensitivity to the spirit body, so she ordered the spirit body to strengthen the interference. Generally, people who are sensitive to this aspect can vaguely see or hear something. But Lin Fan didn't, she only felt cold.
Sister Xu finally judged that Lin Fan had a sensitive constitution and had a weak sense of the existence of spiritual bodies, but had no relevant abilities.
According to the procedure, Sister Xu should have offered Lin Fan a spirit exorcism talisman to take a picture of, to ensure that there were indeed no other spirits on Lin Fan, but there was not, and she just let them go. Wu Yusen guessed that there might be some reason and put it in the weapon refining group to make talismans, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Later I went to the Cultivation Department. Ordinarily, it is impossible for any demons and ghosts to escape Qian Lao's piercing eyes, and the possibility that there are other spirits in the body is basically eliminated. However, nothing was guaranteed and there was a contingency, and the process still had to be completed, so I asked.
The talisman is something that the talisman master senses the rules of the world, extracts energy, and draws it according to the lines to contain the energy, so it contains the power of rules. Finally, the fingertips gather force to shoot and detonate, so the process of using the talisman is also called talisman shooting.
There are many types of talismans. You don’t necessarily have to be able to shoot talismans if you have special powers. Each person has limitations on the talismans that he can shoot due to his own abilities.
For example, a person with supernatural powers like Sister Xu can only take pictures of supernatural talismans, but she cannot take pictures of rain-praying talismans.
Of course, a big boss like Mr. Qian has no taboos.
It is said that a long time ago, as long as you had special powers, you could make talismans, and there was no classification.
It may be that many superpower inheritances have been lost for a long time, and some talismans have also been lost. Many of the current talismans have been repaired and adjusted, so there are many deviations.
As a maker of talismans, the Talisman Master can make any talisman he can, but the effect of using it is slightly worse than that of a person with powers of the same level.
"Yes, I'll take the talisman." Quan Yingdong replied, "Sister Xu did a lot of work last night and didn't stop all night. She was so tired that she just used up the talisman. She called me in the morning and asked me Pat it for her, it doesn’t make any difference anyway.”
Wu Yusen nodded in agreement.
After listening to this, Lin Fan finally understood the reason for Sister Xu's depression.
Quan Yingdong dug through several pockets and finally found a ball of yellow paper, crumpled up. He seemed a little embarrassed, so he quietly flattened it on the table and wiped it hard. However, it is not much better. Maybe after a long time, the paper is still not shaped and soft, but fortunately it is not broken.
Quan Yingdong walked towards Lin Fan carefully holding the talisman. When he was almost there, he turned around and closed the office door before returning.
"Can your talisman still stand up?" John Woo doesn't know how to use talismans, but he knows that the talisman must stand up before he can take pictures. This talisman is crumpled like toilet paper, even when it is flattened, it is trembling. It doesn't feel at all. Can't stand up.
“If you can stand up, you can stand up.” Quan Yingdong promised hurriedly.
Lin Fan took the opportunity to take a look at the talisman. She could not understand what was drawn. She only felt that the place in the middle looked a bit like the word "硡".
"Do you want to take a look?" Quan Yingdong asked seeing her looking seriously.
Is that possible? Lin Fan was surprised.
"Okay, just take it in your hand and look at it carefully." Quan Yingdong handed it over with a smile.
The original process in the equipment refining group is induction rules. Usually, the refined equipment is used to induce induction for newcomers. If you can understand some of the rules, you have the talent for equipment refining. It is also possible to use symbols.
First, he took the talisman to feel it, and after completing the process of the weapon refining group, he then patted it and helped Sister Xu complete the process, killing two birds with one stone.
Wu Yusen knew that Lin Fan had no spiritual roots and would definitely not be able to sense anything, but it didn’t hurt to take a look, so he didn’t stop him.
Lin Fan gently took the talisman, looked at it carefully, and saw nothing wrong with it, then returned it to Quan Yingdong.
Quan Yingdong didn't say anything when he saw that Lin Fan didn't have the talent to refine weapons. He smiled and asked, "Are you ready?"
What are you ready for? Lin Fan was stunned.
Quan Yingdong raised the talisman in his hand, and his smiling eyes instantly became extremely serious. His index finger and middle finger were pressed together in front of his eyes, and the flying talisman stuck to his middle finger with a swish. The talisman paper that was crumpled just now was as straight as new.
He turned his wrist lightly, pushed the talisman forward, and shouted "Go!". The talisman struck Lin Fan with a "swish" with the momentum of thousands of troops.
Lin Fan was startled, unable to dodge, the talisman had already been placed on his chest, and burned with a "boom". Before Lin Fan could reach out to take it, it was burned out in the blink of an eye, without even a trace of ashes. .
