Chapter 1220 Borrowing Your Merit (3)
"I've checked it. The jade amulet has completely changed color and has cracks. It's indeed ineffective." Cui Hongyu touched the jade amulet around his neck with an unsightly look on his face.
"Why does it become ineffective so quickly? Aren't you still more than two months away from turning twenty?" Li Weirong asked in shock.
"I don't know either. It suddenly stopped working yesterday afternoon, and I've been unlucky ever since..." Cui Hongyu felt extremely heavy-hearted. The feeling that an accident, injury, or even life-threatening could happen at any time made him panic but helpless. He could only put his hope on Li Weirong, hoping that she could find a way to help him.
As for Li Shichu, distant water cannot solve the immediate crisis. He has not been able to control her at all now, so he naturally cannot borrow her good luck. Therefore, Li Weirong is his hope to solve his bad luck.
"Something must have happened. Think about it carefully. What were you doing when the amulet became ineffective?" Li Weirong was extremely anxious. She could see that Cui Hongyu was surrounded by evil spirits, but she couldn't help him get rid of it completely because her skills were not strong enough.
Following her words, Cui Hongyu carefully recalled where he was when he first had bad luck, and then immediately remembered that it was in the grove at school. He wanted to create a chance encounter with Li Shichu, but Li Shichu was rude to him, which made her very angry. When she left, she suddenly fell down... The bad luck started at that moment!
"I remember now! I went to see Li Shichu yesterday, and I started to have bad luck after meeting her. Was it her fault?" When Cui Hongyu said this, he couldn't help but vent his anger on Li Shichu.
Li Weirong frowned when she heard what he said: "You suddenly got unlucky after meeting her? Did she do anything to you?"
Cui Hongyu thought of Li Shichu's sarcastic words to him, and inexplicably didn't want Li Weirong to know Li Shichu's true attitude towards him, because it would hurt his self-esteem, so he said: "She just asked me not to disturb her reading."
"That's all?" Li Weirong was puzzled. "If that's the case, then it shouldn't have anything to do with your amulet, right? You don't want to harm her..."
"Weirong, please come and help me. I only believe that you can help me now." Cui Hongyu softened his voice and said softly.
Li Weirong felt her ears suddenly numb and her face flushed as she said, "I'll go find you now, wait for me."
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Cui Hongyu replied gently.
Li Weirong was busy going to the hospital to see Cui Hongyu, while Li Shichu began to cleanse his body in his own villa. Although the original owner also had the talent to practice the mysterious art, his talent was not high. Without external help, even if he practiced for a lifetime, he would only be a third-rate master.
But now that the soul in this body has become Shi Chu, she naturally no longer has this worry. Based on her own physical conditions, she used various medicines to create a marrow cleansing medicine that is unique to her. After soaking in it for a few days, she successfully transformed her body into the most suitable conditions for practicing the mysterious art.
It's not enough to just have talent, one also needs skills. Li Shichu is not like the protagonist Li Weirong, who can become a disciple and learn everything from the master. She can only find ways to learn on her own.
There were indeed metaphysical worlds that she had traveled through before, but the skills in those worlds might not be suitable for cultivation in this world. If Li Shichu wanted to cultivate them, she would have to modify them herself, which was very troublesome.
So Li Shichu, who was afraid of trouble, did not want to change her skills by herself, so she decided to intercept Li Weirong's golden finger - a secret book of metaphysics called "Chaos Yishu", which contained the top-level training methods of the five metaphysics arts of mountain, medicine, physiognomy, destiny and divination. Li Weirong got it, and from then on her skills soared to the sky. At a young age, she became a master of metaphysics who was unrivaled among the crowd. Then, she and Cui Hongyu, who had escaped his unlucky fate, lived together, one in the metaphysics world and the other in the business world, and they became a couple that everyone envied.
Now that Li Shichu is here, it is naturally impossible for him to leave the "Chaos Yishu" to her.
Fortunately, she arrived in time. Li Weirong had not yet obtained the secret book. The secret book was still on the second-hand book shelf of the bookstore near the university where she studied. It was yellow and worn out, covered with dust, and no one had ever looked at it. So in the end, Li Weirong had the foresight to recognize the treasure and got it.
So when Li Shichu passed by the bookstore on his way back to school the next day, he went in to look for the book "Chaos Yishu"
This book was so inconspicuous that Li Shichu spent more than ten minutes to find it among a pile of old books. It was a thin book. Li Shichu flipped through it and confirmed that it was this one, so he took it and paid for it without hesitation.
Li Shichu was very happy after successfully intercepting Li Weirong's golden finger. He returned to school, avoided people, and entered his own companion space to start practicing the skills in this book.
On the other side, Li Weirong stayed with Cui Hongyu in the hospital for a day. She had read Cui Hongyu's fortune when she first came yesterday and found that he had indeed returned to his original appearance. Without the amulet to cover it, the evil spirit on his body was surprisingly strong. Cui Hongyu was shrouded in bad luck and his forehead was black, a face that looked extremely unlucky.
Li Weirong was distressed and anxious: "How could it become like this? Is the amulet really useless?"
Cui Hongyu showed her the amulet: "It's cracked."
Li Weirong picked it up and knew without even a close look that the amulet was completely useless, but she couldn't find out what caused it to expire prematurely after shortening its validity period by more than two months.
"Weirong, I can't even drink water now. I've choked several times. If the nurse wasn't around, I'm afraid I would choke to death... Is there any way you can help me?" Cui Hongyu's gentle face had a fragile look, which easily made Li Weirong feel soft-hearted and distressed.
"Don't worry, I will find a way to help you cover up the evil spirit!" She promised, but soon became worried again, "It's just that my current skills are far inferior to Master's, and the effect of the amulet I carved for you will definitely not be as good as the one Master gave you."
"It doesn't matter. It's good to have you. I believe you will do your best for me." Cui Hongyu looked at her affectionately, hugged her gently, and said with emotion, "Weirong, if I didn't have you, I don't know what to do. You are my lucky goddess."
Li Weirong felt sweet in her heart and hugged him back: "Hongyu, you must treat me well in the future."
"Of course, you will always be the one I love the most." Cui Hongyu responded immediately.
The two of them talked to each other for a long time before Li Weirong took out the jade pendant she had prepared in advance and began to carve a talisman for Cui Hongyu. In order to make it more effective, she had to attach all the weak merits in her body to the jade pendant. Her merits were only a thin layer, and only after all of them were used up could they barely cover the amulet.
After carving the amulet, Li Weirong's face turned pale and she broke out in a sweat.
