"Tarot cards and witchcraft in ancient Europe are both a form of mind cultivation. Casting a spell involves attaching one's powerful mind to an object, and then influencing others through contact with the object."
"In other words, as long as your willpower is stronger than the caster's, you won't be affected."
This is different from love Gu, and it cannot be compared with a powerful Gu Master.
After listening to Ye Lan's explanation, Xiao Yunting nodded slightly, but his expression was still a little grim. He then raised the black crystal on her wrist and asked, "Is there something wrong with this bracelet too?"
Just now, Ye Lan deliberately bypassed the chain given by the fan and chose the chain in the other party's hand, and he realized that something was wrong.
"Well, this black crystal absorbs negative energy. But the runes on it are engraved in reverse, so the effect is completely opposite. Negative energy transfer is also a common method in ancient European witchcraft." Ye Lan shook the crystal bracelet that reflected a bright light under the light and said nonchalantly, "It's harmful to ordinary people, but it doesn't work on me."
To put it bluntly, in order to successfully impose emotions or thoughts on another person, the caster's thoughts must first be stronger than the target's. Otherwise, it will be completely ineffective.
"Selling these is to disturb people's minds." For the first time, Xiao Yunting did not ask her opinion. He took off the bracelet forcefully, pinched it in his hand and crushed it into powder in the blink of an eye.
Ye Lan had a different idea from him, "Don't you notice that there are a lot of divinations here?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunting took a quick look and found that the number of these divination stalls was indeed unusual.
In places like this, they sell effective mind crystals at low prices, using the same methods as antique shops.
Then their target customers are not ordinary tourists, but——
"They are looking for prey." Xiao Yunting's eyebrows turned cold, and a layer of frost quickly formed in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, "They are looking for prey with strong willpower."
This is much more serious than hunters who simply look for traps or kill or burn people.
Because people with strong willpower have great potential for development, if it is used for other purposes, it will become a weapon that harms society.
The fact that these fortune-telling stalls appeared so densely at the same time meant that they were secretly recruiting a large number of people.
He moved his fingers, wanting to ask his assistant to check it out immediately.
The next second, Ye Lan pulled out his phone and sent a message, "When I noticed it just now when I walked in, I asked Nan Xu and the others to check it out, and now there's a response."
She lowered her head to read the message, her expression becoming somewhat amused. "The divination didn't find anything, but they discovered another interesting thing."
As she spoke, she handed the phone to Xiao Yunting.
It was the first time that Xiao Yunting was slower than others in handling things. He was stunned for a moment before lowering his eyes to look at the message on the screen.
"There's nothing wrong with divination, but we just received a message from a secret hunter: the recent frequent disappearances in the ghost market coincide with the release of a popular game, and many stalls are now selling this game."
game.
Xiao Yunting had some impression of it. After thinking for a moment, he said a name, "Hunting."
"It's called Hunting, right? It's a high-definition 4D hunting simulation game. Currently, it's only available on the black market, but it's available in almost every store." Ye Lan understood the game after reading the short description. "Since it's so popular, and only circulated in a certain area, guess why?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunting looked into her clear eyes, which were distinct from black and white, and both of them had the answer in their hearts.
Because there are dark secrets in that game.
There are the mysteries of those missing people.
When the two entered the store frequented by a large group of people, they found that violent toys were sold there.
"Wow, these telescopes and air guns are so realistic, they're just as powerful as the real thing, yet they feel like toys. No one would suspect I could bring them out."
"Even though the bullet is made of plastic, it hurts so much. If it's closer, it would probably go into the flesh."
…
Ye Lan took a look around and found that the guns were highly simulated and had been modified in details to increase their lethality.
These should be the sources of the harmful toys circulating on the market.
"Miss and gentleman, I'm afraid this might seem a bit boring to you." The boss suddenly appeared from nowhere. He had a goatee, long hair tied up in a bun, and a gleam in his triangular eyes. He walked up to them and started selling them with a clear target. "I have more good stuff in the back. I wonder if you're interested?"
nice one.
Hearing this, Ye Lan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you know us?"
The boss chuckled, "Even if I didn't know this handsome guy, I wouldn't have mistaken Miss Ye since she's so famous. I didn't expect a celebrity to patronize my small shop. How can I promote my little place if I don't take this opportunity to sell more products?"
When the people who were watching nearby heard this, they all gathered around and praised the boss for his good judgment.
"Well, we came here with Miss Ye, so let us see some good stuff."
"Haha, no problem, come in with me." The man looked kind and made a gesture of invitation.
Ye Lan thought that leaving these people outside might be more dangerous, so he didn't stop them, and everyone went into the back of the shop together.
The space for setting up the tent is not small, and the back is arranged like a spacious living room with carpet, sofa, coffee table and fruit. The most eye-catching thing is a TV with a large screen on the wall.
"We recently launched an immersive game that makes people feel like they are in the game. We are currently conducting public beta testing and want to recruit charismatic people like Miss Ye to participate, which can also be regarded as a warm-up for the product." The boss walked over and turned on the LCD screen. Under the full-range high-definition projector, everyone could feel the three-dimensional projection layer without wearing glasses.
