That’s right, the nerd is a real Chinese with black hair, black eyes and yellow skin.
At the beginning, he reminded Ye Lan out of the idea of helping each other among compatriots.
As a Chinese with a long history, even though we have received scientific education and are firm materialists, the awe of the power of ghosts and gods is deeply engraved in our bones.
So, he considered tripping for no reason just now, someone talking in his ear, and the young man on the podium extinguishing the candle as "something fishy".
It was all ghosts, so he naturally couldn't go any closer.
“…”
The scene was a bit awkward for a while.
But seeing that the nerd was about to strike the wooden fish on the spot, the old man had no choice but to let the young man cast the spell again and look for a new target.
"Okay, teacher." The young man didn't hesitate when he heard that. He raised his hand confidently and waved it domineeringly.
He thought he would cause another sensation in the audience, but unfortunately the candle only burned out halfway, and then a severe headache came and made him unable to continue.
"That's enough, don't force yourself. Drink some water and take a rest first." The old man held his shoulders and fed him the water in the cup with his back to the crowd, revealing disgust in his eyes at an angle that no one could notice.
"I'm sorry, teacher. I only felt a little power from that direction." The young man said guiltily after drinking the water and his headache was relieved.
The old man patted his arm without saying anything. He turned to look in the direction the other person pointed. In the end, he could only randomly pick a sophomore student and said, "Then you come."
The other person immediately stood up, excitedly saying, "Thank you, teacher. Thank you, teacher. I will definitely not let God down!"
After taking the oath, he strode down the stairs, and on the way he did not forget to give the nerd a mocking and smug smile, clearly saying that he could not get any good food.
Ye Lan glanced at the nerd and found that he was still holding the Buddha amulet and chanting sutras devoutly. He couldn't help but find it funny. He moved his fingers to retract the barrier around him. According to the other party's fear of ghosts, he should not be absorbed into learning the thoughts.
At this moment, the second round of cleansing ceremony has begun on the podium.
As the candlelight gradually lit up and the incantation was chanted, the old man reached out again to pour water.
At this moment, Ye Lan injected a stream of internal energy into the student's knees on the table through the air.
The internal force stimulated the tendons and veins, causing an instant knee-jerk reaction, and he kicked directly on the old man's wrist.
"ah!"
"ah!"
Two exclamations rang out at the same time, followed by a cup falling to the ground, making a crisp sound when it hit the marble floor.
All the water spilled out at once.
"What are you doing?!" The old man saw this and immediately lost control of his temper. He pointed at the student's nose and started to curse: "Do you know how precious this water is? There's not a drop left now. What are you going to give me as compensation?"
The student was terrified and lost his previous composure. He sat on the table and explained at a loss, "I, I don't know what happened just now. I'm sorry, teacher. Please give me another chance. I've been waiting for this wash for a long time."
Unfortunately, no matter how he begged, he was eventually driven away by the old man with a gloomy face.
The ceremony was hastily paused, and the other party said, "The ceremony is cancelled until further notice. Let's call it a night."
After saying that, he walked away angrily, shaking his sleeves.
When Ye Lan and Lei Ze left the classroom, the sophomore student became the target of public criticism and was being attacked by everyone. He was also disqualified from participating in the next ceremony.
Amid his pleading, the two of them walked back to the dormitory.
"What was that just now?" Lei Ze asked a rare question before returning to the house, seeming to be interested in this power he had never seen before.
"Hmm?" Ye Lan looked back from under the streetlight and asked, "Can't you feel it?"
During the day, he still says that he can do anything.
Lei Ze didn't care about being taken advantage of and just shook his head and said calmly: "The power is too weak to sense it."
He is a god who can perceive the vast universe. Even the wild flowers and weeds by the roadside, every inch of land contains power. It would be almost impossible to distinguish each one carefully.
The power displayed by the young man at that time was similar to still lifes such as flowers and grass to him, so weak that it could be ignored.
After hearing this, Ye Lan felt both amused and helpless, and then explained to the other party the practice method of the mind-controller.
"Development of willpower?" Lei Ze raised his gaze to the girl's head. He couldn't imagine that such a small head could generate such power.
Seeing this, Ye Lan raised a faint smile and reminded him, "The human brain is a mysterious structure that science and technology cannot fully understand to this day. It has indeed created many miracles. The hexagram formation that summoned you was invented by the mind."
Hearing this, Lei Ze was silent for a moment, recalling the harassment he had felt while sleeping, and a hint of displeasure flashed across his eyes.
"So, although the history of alchemy is not as long as that of Eastern metaphysics, during its heyday, the strength of a powerful alchemist should not be underestimated." Ye Lan also thought of the ancient Europe that was once popular in the records. It was a force that both the royal family and the church feared, and in the end they had to list various crimes and launched a sensational movement to eliminate witches.
Lei Ze did not comment on this. After all, no matter how powerful humans are, there is still an insurmountable barrier between them and gods.
After answering his questions, he returned to the house.
Ye Lan also returned to the dormitory next door, preparing to make another bowl of medicine for Xiao Yunting. However, just as the herbs were put into the pot, there was a knock on the door.
The voice was a little hurried.
Ye Lan came out of the kitchen and saw the visitor through the peephole. He raised his eyebrows and opened the door to see the nerd standing outside with a distracted look on his face.
"Ye, classmate Ye." He seemed startled by the sound of the door opening. He reacted and glanced around, then nervously took out two jade Buddha amulets from his pocket and handed them over. "This is what my family gave me for safety before I left. I feel it's a bit unclean here, so I'll give these two to you and another classmate."
Ye Lan lowered her eyes to look at the Buddha amulet in his hand, remembering how he had held the amulet tightly to his chest when he was frightened tonight. Knowing that this was a token of his good intentions, she took it and casually handed him a triangle amulet, "Reciprocity is the norm."
The nerd was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up. He held the triangle amulet and thanked me happily, "Thank you for the amulet. I will definitely carry it with me at all times. In this foreign country, it's better to have things from our ancestors with you to feel at ease. By the way, my name is Huang Weian. We will be classmates from now on. Please give me your guidance."
This piece of talisman was more like a signal of closeness, which made Huang Weian let down his restraint and take the initiative to introduce himself.
"Ye Lan."
As soon as Ye Lan introduced his name, the other party waved his hand. "I know your deeds spread throughout the entire college on the first day, and everyone is familiar with it. I didn't expect you to choose to come here. Although I haven't fully adapted yet, I hope that we can stay and be classmates for another four years!"
As he spoke about his expectations for the future, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
Ye Lan's expression softened a bit. He was not disgusted by such a kind-hearted person, so he just gave him the life-saving talisman for emergency treatment.
