Chapter 373 The Reincarnation Bell
Li Yu received the push message from the forging house on the subway when he got off work the next day.
It is said that a new function is online, but if you want to experience it, you need to pay 1,500 points of faith to purchase the same equipment.
Li Yu clicked to pay without hesitating for too long.
But this time, the equipment department unexpectedly called Hummingbird for immediate distribution, allowing Li Yu to get his new equipment within an hour after placing the order.
Li Yu opened the package and found a bell inside.
The shape of the bell looks very conspicuous. The whole body is made of brass. The handle is in the shape of a "mountain". The middle part is like a small sword, pointing straight to the sky. There are also some charms and the pattern of the Big Dipper engraved on the bell.
Li Yu searched on Baidu and found out that this thing is called Sanqing Bell, which is an important Taoist magic weapon and is also called the Soul-Calling Bell among the people.
There is a saying that "when the soul-calling bell rings, keep strangers away."
However, inside this simple-looking Sanqing Bell, Li Yu saw a very inconsistent QR code.
He turned on the scan function on his phone, scanned the QR code, and then jumped to the forge house's product page.
[Reincarnation Bell]: It can absorb and save the soul of the newly deceased. Each use consumes 100 points of faith and requires the consent of the soul owner. The soul can stay there for no more than three days until it finds a new body.
Li Yu was stunned for a moment when he saw this introduction, because the description was so evil, much like the evil weapons refined by evil heretics in novels about cultivating immortals.
He then looked down and saw the specific usage of the [Reincarnation Bell].
After reading it carefully, Li Yu found that this thing was very powerful, but it also had many restrictions on its use. First of all, it required the consent of the owner of the soul.
Li Yu does not have yin and yang eyes, cannot see Ah Piao, and cannot talk or interact with the soul of the deceased.
This requires that he must negotiate the matter of entering the bell before the deceased dies. In addition, if he wants to complete the reincarnation, he must find a corpse that can receive the soul.
This is also a troublesome matter. Reincarnation has high requirements on the corpse. Although it can repair some minor wounds, there is nothing that can be done about some inherent diseases in the corpse.
For example, if you find a corpse that died of liver cancer, even if it is replaced with a new soul, the liver of the original body will not get better.
In the same way, it will not work if your head is missing or if it is torn apart by a car accident. Such injuries are too serious. Even if the too old corpse is reincarnated successfully, it will only last a few years...
In short, it is not easy to find a suitable corpse, and it can easily arouse widespread public opinion. In today's short video era, such strange things always spread quickly.
However, in another dimension, such troubles are much less, and it is easier to find corpses that meet the requirements.
Li Yu has realized why Hephaestus said before that new technological breakthroughs would bring about changes in missionary methods.
What is the biggest bottleneck in the development of double holiday education now?
The answer is still talent.
Even though Li Yu has been using various means to discover talents from within and abduct talents from the outside, Shuangxiu Education, as a new organization, still has too few available people.
Especially in terms of senior talents, there is a huge gap.
Education requires investment of resources and time, but now the emergence of [Reincarnation Bell] provides Li Yu with another solution.
He found that he seemed to be able to use the top students trained by the education system of this plane to directly fill the talent vacancies in another plane.
This made Li Yu very excited. One of the characteristics of modern society is the high degree of division of labor. Everyone has something they are good at, and Li Yu is no exception.
Although he has been using various knowledge and technologies to solve the problems faced by Bratis, he only has a partial understanding of many things and needs to rely on the search functions of Baidu and Google to collect answers online.
This can certainly solve some of the problems, but it's definitely not as good as professionals.
If some specific talents can be introduced as needed, teaching during the weekends can also get more help.
Li Yu can still afford the recruitment fee of 100 points of faith.
He had a total of 2762 faith points on hand before. After paying 1500 points to purchase the [Reincarnation Bell], he still had 1262 points left. If all were used, he could recruit 12 people.
Of course, to be cautious, Li Yu still planned to recruit one first to see the effect.
The only question now was where to find the dying man.
…………
Early the next morning, Zhang Yanlin received a text message from Li Yu asking her to come to the Third Hospital of the City.
She has basically been left alone for more than a month after joining the company. After Li Yu left the job of decorating the office to her, she disappeared.
Now that the decoration is coming to an end, Zhang Yanlin has bought all the furniture. He is removing formaldehyde while checking for leaks, and there is nothing to do.
So she asked Li Yu every day if he had any other errands for her. It was only now that she finally got a response.
After Zhang Yanlin received the message, he immediately took the subway and rushed to the Third Hospital of the City. He also bought a box of golden books from the supermarket at the door and went all the way to the inpatient department.
She saw Li Yu in the corridor on the third floor. The latter was sitting on a bench, holding a notebook and typing.
Zhang Yanlin quickened his pace and walked in front of Li Yu.
Li Yu also noticed something then. He raised his head and saw the box of milk in Zhang Yanlin's hand. He was slightly startled, "Why are you buying milk?"
"Shouldn't you bring something when you come to visit a patient? Speaking of which, who is hospitalized, your friend or your client?" Zhang Yanlin asked curiously.
"Let's call him a customer." Li Yu said, "Since you bought it, just put it down and remember to reimburse it later."
"Oh ok."
Li Yu pointed to the seat next to him and motioned for Zhang Yanlin to sit down.
"Didn't you keep asking me, what is our main job?"
"I remember you said that cultural dissemination was to popularize scientific and technological knowledge in underdeveloped areas."
"Yes, but I never told you where the underdeveloped areas are."
"Domestic mountainous areas, or Africa?"
"No, it's in another universe."
Zhang Yanlin burst out laughing, but then she saw that Li Yu looked serious and did not seem to be telling a joke, so she gradually put away the smile on her face.
"In space exploration, do private companies still have such business?"
"It's not the same. I can only tell you that another universe exists, and there is life and civilization there, but the level of civilization is roughly equivalent to our Middle Ages."
"Aha?"
"You didn't call me crazy, which is better than I expected."
"I have been your colleague for a year before, and I know what you are like, but what you are saying now is still too, too... unacceptable."
"I know, I didn't really believe it at first, until I got there myself." (End of Chapter)
