Chapter 234 Learning a new spell
Next, Gu Xu learned from Luo Si’s first words that Shangguan Jin, He Yiqun, the junior disciple of the National Master serving as the Exorcist Division, and Xiao Shangyuan, the eldest prince, had all tried to learn this spell. "Star Formation" spells, but the effect is not very good.
The main star of Shangguan Jin’s life palace is "Tian Yue Star". Most of the time, she will summon other stars among the "Six Lucky Stars", such as "Zuo Fu", "You Bi" and "Tian Kui" wait.
But because "Tian Yue Star" has the attribute of peach blossom, she will occasionally summon "Hong Luan Star" or "Tian Yao Star" - the former is about marriage, and the latter is about lust.
These two stars have no lethality, but they will make the ordinary people around her have a favorable impression of her indiscriminately, just like the ghosts will have a strong interest in Gu Xu's "spiritual body" Same.
Because of this, this "star array" spell has caused her trouble many times - for example, a five-year-old boy in Nanyang Mansion once vowed that he would not marry anyone except her in the future; for example, the oiran from the brothel in Runing Mansion once enthusiastically Exuding an invitation to spend the night with her; for example, an old lady who lost all her teeth spent a lot of money to buy a magic elixir to rejuvenate her youth in order to be with her for the rest of her life, and then was defrauded of all her family property by a scammer...
In the experience After dealing with these troublesome things, Shangguan Jin simply gave up on this spell.
She likes to keep her destiny firmly in her own hands, and hates things that are full of randomness and require a lot of character.
…………
He Yiqun, the junior fellow of the National Master, is a casual person.
He lives in the world without ideals or ambitions. He just wants to pursue inner happiness and travels around the world, looking for all interesting people or things.
Because he was curious about the new owner of the "Jinghong Pen", he rushed to Yishui County all the way, just to meet Gu Xu in person; he had also heard that the Snow Girl was as beautiful as a fairy, so he risked his life to do so. Risking his life, he climbed Mount Yi.
Spells like "Star Array" that have the nature of drawing blind boxes have undoubtedly successfully aroused He Yiqun's interest.
But soon after, he deeply felt that as a monk with mediocre luck, he really shouldn't learn this spell.
After shaking hands with the enemy and making peace, he thought he could summon a "Tianliang Star" with auxiliary gain attributes to help him quickly recover his true energy, but he accidentally summoned a murderous "Broken Star". "Military Star", causing the enemy to think that he had gone back on his word, and had to fight with him...
.........
As for the eldest prince Xiao Shangyuan, he came here with gifts a few years ago and made a request in front of Luo Chuan, hoping to learn this profound and unpredictable magic.
He hopes to use this spell to prove his qualifications and abilities, so as to get closer to the "Taea Sword" that symbolizes imperial power.
He once held the booklet in Gu Xu's hand and retreated in the ashram for more than a month, knowing every sentence Luo Sishou wrote on it by heart.
But later he discovered that the "Star Formation" magic seemed to be mutually exclusive with the "Dragon Heart Sutra", the ancestral skill of the Daqi royal family.
As long as he runs the true energy in his body according to the meridian path of the "Dragon Heart Sutra", he will not be able to display the "Star Formation" at all.
So he finally chose to give up.
…………
After hearing these words from Luo Chuan, Gu Xu frowned slightly.
"Star Formation" is indeed a powerful spell, but its shortcomings are also very obvious.
It relies too much on luck.
Like Guan Jin, Gu Xu also hopes to firmly control his destiny in his own hands instead of pinning his hopes on illusory luck.
"Gu Xiaoyou, the reason why they are influenced by luck is because they have not mastered this skill yet," Luo Chuan noticed the change in Gu Xu's expression and said with a smile, "But once it really happens, Once you understand the true meaning of the Dao, you can completely rely on your own will to summon the stars you want.
"By then, you will be a commander in chief, and the stars in the sky will be your army. You can place troops, generals, and formations at will. "
Speaking of this, Luo Chuan stood up and asked Gu Xu: "How about I summon the Sun Star and the Lunar Star to show you now? ”
Gu Xu pondered for two seconds and nodded.
He is indeed very curious about the real effect of the "Star Array" spell.
Luochuan smiled, recited a complicated and lengthy spell, and then waved his sleeves.
Suddenly, two dazzling light balls appeared around him, slowly rotating around him in a specific trajectory. One of them is a bright orange color, exuding scorching heat; the other is a cool silvery white, exuding a biting chill.
The temperature in the attic also alternated between hot and cold - of course, because Luo Chuan deliberately controlled the intensity of the true energy, the temperature changes were not very drastic.
This made Gu Xu feel as if he was sitting next to a heater and blowing off the air conditioner.
A few minutes later, Luo Chuan had a thought and terminated the "Star Array" spell.
The two orange and silver balls of light disappeared instantly.
The temperature inside the house quickly recovered.
"How do you feel?" Luo Chuan asked.
"Very powerful." Gu Xu replied seriously.
At the same time, Gu Xu had a strange intuition in his heart: He felt that it might not take long before he could completely master this spell.
Luochuan's smile became even brighter, and it seemed that Gu Xu's compliment made him feel very happy.
At this time, Luochuan suddenly noticed that the tea in Gu Xu’s cup had cooled down a lot, so he planned to pour him another cup of tea. At the same time, he also asked Gu Xu: “Do you think the taste of this tea is good? It’s too bitter and doesn’t taste good. Do you want to try another one?”
Luo Chuan said that among his spatial instruments, there are Dahongpao, Yinzhen, Maofeng, White Peony, and Chrysanthemum Tea. , jasmine tea and other kinds of tea, there must be one that can satisfy Gu Xu.
Gu Xu was silent for two seconds, then politely declined with a smile.
He tried hard to get used to Luo Si Shou's overly polite behavior, and at the same time repeatedly told himself to stay calm.
“I almost forgot an important question,” when the conversation was about to end, Luo Si Shou suddenly raised his voice and said to Gu Xu, “Gu Xiaoyou, someone like you has practiced the Seven Styles of Burning Heaven. 'People may not agree with my 'way of destiny'
"But you don't have to worry about it. "Because the true meaning of the Great Way in the 'Star Array' spell comes from the Great Emperor Ziwei in the North Pole of Zhongtian, and is vaster and more profound than my 'Way of Destiny'.
"You can completely rely on your own intuition to feel it and digest it. Maybe soon, your understanding of it will be far better than mine."
…………
By the time Gu Xu left the small attic, it was already lunch time.
He walked through the backyard and walked straight towards the government kitchen.
“Hey, Gu Xu! You’re here to eat too!”
Before he could reach the door, a petite girl rushed towards him along the long corridor - she looked like a small animal that had just jumped into the world in the spring light, her whole body bursting with excitement. Vigorous vitality.
It was Shi Xiaohan who couldn't wait to run out of the library to have lunch.
Because she was running too fast, she almost couldn't stop the car and almost hit Gu Xu.
Gu Xu had lingering fears about this.
This girl possesses terrifying brute strength, but his own physical fitness is about the same as that of a mortal; if he really collides with her... without using his true energy, the consequences will be disastrous.
Seeing Gu Xu's expression, Shi Xiaohan chuckled, lifted up his black robe slightly, revealing his fair and slender ankles and small and exquisite light pink embroidered shoes, and said very quickly: "Sorry, these newly bought shoes are a bit slippery for some reason. "Gu Xu, did I scare you just now?"
"It's okay." Gu Xu quickly regained his composure.
"I have two pieces of news here that I want to tell you, good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" Shi Xiaohan seemed to be in a good mood today and played the same old trick with him.
“Bad news!”
“I had already guessed that you would choose this way,” Shi Xiaohan raised his face and looked at him, folding his hands on his chest, “The bad news is, I've had enough of staying in the library every day to endorse! This thing is simply scarier than being hungry!
"So, this heroine has announced that she will give up the competition for the position of 'chief secretary' and no longer wants to be an official under the same roof with you."
"Oh, it does sound like a pity," Gu Xu pretended She sighed, "What about the good news?"
"The good news is that someone told me this morning that I was recommended by the Chief Secretary to go to Longmen Academy for further study." At this point, her face once again He smiled happily, revealing two pointed little tiger teeth, and at the same time grasped Gu Xu's sleeves tightly with both hands, "In the next nine months, I can still stay in Luo Jing City without being forced. Drive him home!"
The girl's bright almond eyes under her slender eyelashes looked at his face at an angle of 45 degrees, with a moving light shining in them, as if she was silently telling: I can continue. It's nice to be in the same city with you.
“That’s great!” Gu Xu also smiled.
He thought: It seems that she still doesn’t know that I am the mastermind behind this incident, which is great.
…………
After dinner, Gu Xu returned to the "Qingxiang Pavilion" where he temporarily lived and began to learn new spells.
He first opened the notes written by the Imperial Master and his junior brother He Yiqun about the second form of "The Seven Burning Heavens", "Bright Candle", and then read "The candle will eventually turn into ashes" over and over again. Several times.
He did not immediately continue to turn the pages, but closed the booklet.
Because he knows that if you can understand things like high-grade spells by yourself, you should try your best to understand them by yourself.
If you refer to other people's understandings, you may be more or less affected by other people's subjective thoughts, and it is difficult to truly understand the true meaning of the most original Tao left by the founder of the magic.
——Just like before reading a novel or movie, if you read book reviews or movie reviews first, you will inevitably have some preconceived ideas.
He stood up, took a shorter candle from the cabinet on the wall, and placed it firmly on the candlestick.
A scorching true flame burst out from his palm, lighting the candle.
Perhaps because it was daytime, the candle's light didn't look bright.
But Gu Xu’s attention was completely attracted by it.
He stood by the candlestick, watching the orange flames spinning and dancing like a dancer in a gorgeous dress, watching the candles getting shorter little by little, watching the wax oil falling drop by drop, and then A solid block of wax.
When the candle wick is burned out, the flame goes out.
At this moment, Gu Xu finally understood the true meaning of "Mingzhu"——
Burn yourself and light up the world.
Only those who are not afraid of sacrifice have the power to change the entire world.
He closed his eyes.
His soul became a candle wick, his essence became paraffin, and his will became fire.
Three, two, one.
ignite!
He was covered in blazing flames, as if he was wearing a robe woven from flames.
The blazing heat spread around him, engulfing the entire room in an instant.
But he stood in the fire, safe and sound.
