Chapter 143: Spiritual Interference You may find it easier to understand the commission...
Luce said in disbelief: "What?"
She had never heard that Lin Zhuyue could do such a thing—
Spreading the golden amber fire into hundreds of beams, and controlling the direction of each beam with such precision, what a terrifying manipulation skill! In the entire Spiritual Master Mansion, there are only a few people who can accomplish such a thing.
The flame talisman was hit by the golden amber fire before it flew far and exploded in front of Luss.
Lu Sisi promptly removed the spiritual weapon "One Flame Nine Cauldrons"'s strengthening effect on the talisman, preventing her from being blown away. The spiritual fire summoned by the talisman, mixed with the golden amber fire, leaped and burned not far in front of her, then slowly extinguished.
Luce did not admit defeat, but asked:
"Lin Zhuyue, how many more arrows can you shoot?"
Using the Golden Amber Fire in this way would definitely consume a lot of spiritual power and energy. Lin Zhuyue didn't have to worry about the consumption of spiritual power, but her energy was definitely limited - otherwise she wouldn't need to sleep and rest every day like ordinary people.
"Three arrows."
Lin Zhuyue drew the bowstring again and condensed the golden amber fire.
"If you can hold out for three more arrows, I'll surrender."
In fact, Lu Sisi was unable to use the million talismans to explode three more times, but when she looked at Lin Zhuyue standing opposite her, concentrating on drawing the bow, she kept thinking about trying again.
What if it happens?
Lu Sisi took out another stack of talismans. She raised her hand, and as if there was wind blowing around her, light yellow talisman paper scattered and floated around Lu Sisi.
Then, a translucent cauldron appeared behind Lussi. There seemed to be flames burning in the cauldron. The surrounding air was distorted by the heat, and the cauldron body was burned red.
A red light floated out from the cauldron and attached to the yellow talisman paper with the spiritual fire talisman drawn on it.
"A million talismans!"
Lu Sisi raised her finger and pointed at Lin Zhuyue, saying,
"Surround her!"
Lin Zhuyue released the bowstring, and the golden amber fire scattered into hundreds of rays, cutting through the cold wind and shooting towards the opposite side of the arena.
Luce was already prepared, and under her manipulation, the talisman successfully dodged the arrow.
We are going to win!
But at this moment, a talisman suddenly exploded.
Lu Sisi was knocked off balance by the explosion, and before she could get up, the talismans exploded one by one.
The chain explosions caused by hundreds of talismans shattered the bluestone bricks of the stadium and raised dust.
Lu Sisi was blasted to the ground, tumbling to the edge of the court. She covered her mouth and coughed violently, her chest aching. After suppressing the cough, she gasped for air and looked up at Lin Zhuyue, who was still standing on the court. Her brain, stunned by the explosion, began to think slowly.
Lin Zhuyue's arrow clearly didn't hit her talisman...
Why did the talisman explode?
Lin Zhuyue stood there holding the recurve bow in one hand. She did not continue to pull the string, but just quietly observed Lu Sisi, judging in her mind whether the other party could continue to fight.
Lu Sisi asked, "Did that bastard Shi Can teach you?"
Lin Zhuyue shook his head and said, "It's not just him."
When Lin Zhuyue learned that his opponent was Lu Sisi, he began to prepare countermeasures.
With Shi Chan's help, she learned how to control hundreds of amber fires at the same time and use them to accurately shoot through moving targets.
But it was Cui Yi who taught me how to detonate the talisman without the help of the golden amber fire.
——Xiaoyue, have you ever learned spiritual interference?
——Inject your spiritual power into the object you want to interfere with to control and disrupt it.
At that time, Shi Chan tried to stop Cui Yi:
"Mom, don't teach me. Not to mention how precise the operation required is... The body is a natural protection that can isolate and weaken most spiritual interference. There's no way this trick can be used to interfere with the opponent on the field."
——Who said we should interfere with the opponent?
—The soul protected by the body is difficult to interfere with, but external objects outside the body are different. Furthermore, precise manipulation is not required; all that is needed is to disrupt the object of interference.
Interfere with the talisman that Lu Sisi took out, causing the spiritual power injected into the talisman to become disordered and explode directly. This is the way Lin Zhuyue learned to deal with Lu Sisi.
Lin Zhuyue asked: "Are you still going to continue?"
Luce gasped, shook her head slightly, and raised her hands.
She was helpless against Lin Zhuyue, while Lin Zhuyue seemed to be at ease. Even if it was just a matter of mentality, the winner of this match had already been decided.
Lin Zhuyue breathed a sigh of relief.
...won.
In the audience, Ye Yangjia said with emotion:
"Lin Zhuyue seemed to win easily."
"This is actually Sisi's own fault. Relying too much on something during a battle makes it easy for others to plot against him."
Wen Miyan stretched out her hand and said,
"Those who bet on Sisi to win, and those who bet on Zhuyue to be seriously injured, are willing to accept the loss and pay."
Ye Yangjia: "Damn."
Meng Qi: "Here you go."
The two men took out some money from their pockets and handed it to Wen Miyan.
Gong Yongyuan rested his chin on his hand, looking at them with some envy. Because he was too good at calculating, his friends and classmates would follow suit and bet on whoever he bet on, thus disrupting the fairness of the game, so he was banned from participating in the game.
Shi Can didn't watch the game with them today. He sat with his parents, and as soon as the game ended, he hurried through the player tunnel to the sidelines to find Lin Zhuyue.
All subsequent matches were moved to Stadium No. 2 because the stadium was severely damaged.
Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can originally planned to watch the whole battle, but unexpectedly they received a mission.
The task was not given by "Duan Junheng", but entrusted by Fu Xingwei.
"I know you're at a critical stage in the competition. If you get injured, it will have a huge impact on the rest of the game."
Fu Xingwei placed two cups of salty milk tea in front of Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can and said,
"Although it's instant, it doesn't contain non-dairy creamer. Try it. The reason I entrusted this task to you is because I felt that you, Lin Zhuyue, might be more able to understand the 'victim' in this commission."
Shi Can asked, “Tell me in detail?”
"If you make it too clear, you won't get any points."
Fu Xingwei put the folder on the table and said,
"See for yourself."
Fu Xingwei's expression was not relaxed, but rather heavy, with a hint of compassion.
Lin Zhuyue's gaze shifted away from Fu Xingwei's face. She picked up the folder, opened it, and read the task details with Shi Can.
The mission location is in Wuju City, not far from Linhai City. Although they are not adjacent to each other, they are in the same province.
There's a high school on the outskirts of Wuju City. Rumor has it that before the high school was built, the site was a mass grave. The stone bricks paving the lawn are engraved with names; it's unclear whose tombstone was used for the paving. Cries can be heard from time to time in the girls' dormitory, and when it rains, shadows appear in the windows of the laboratory building, staring across...
The haunted buff is maxed out.
Even if it's not really haunted, if this continues, it might turn out to be a fantasy monster like the K3 bus that was born from rumors.
Last Friday, a girl in the third grade of the school's senior department was shouting in the office building late at night, then jumped from the roof and died on the spot.
According to classmates and her homeroom teacher, the girl was usually cheerful and popular, and had never had any conflicts with her friends, so it was unlikely that she had committed suicide. However, her friends said that on the morning of her suicide, she had said she had seen a white ghost in the laboratory building.
Therefore, the girl's suicide may be related to the dead soul...
The school communicated with the parents, and both parties decided to clarify the matter and then divide the responsibilities.
Therefore, the school entrusted the Spiritual Master Mansion with the task—
Clean the teaching building and then perform a ritual to help the girl who jumped off the building to be reincarnated so that she can leave with a clear conscience.
"I don't really need to entrust this mission to you. If you really don't want to take it, I understand..."
Fu Xingwei handed the carbon pen to Lin Zhuyue and asked,
"So, you answer it?"
Lin Zhuyue said helplessly:
"Teacher, you came to me directly..."
Fu Xingwei still has to be given face. After all, he was good to Lin Zhuyue when he was the class teacher. The fact that Lin Zhuyue's behavior of entering the underworld was forgiven by the higher-ups was also due to Fu Xingwei's efforts.
Lin Zhuyue took the carbon pen, signed the task execution application form, and handed the pen to Shi Can who was sitting next to him.
While Lin Zhuyue was waiting for Shi Can to sign, she felt a little worried. She said:
"Come to think of it, today is Saturday..."
"What happened to Saturday? There's a ghost in the school. Not to mention Saturday, even if it's Chinese New Year, the school leaders have to come to school."
Shi Can handed the signed task application to Fu Xingwei and said,
"Besides, isn't it normal for high school students to study and attend classes on Saturdays, and for adults to work overtime as well?"
Lin Zhuyue patted Shi Can's shoulder with an expression that said, "You still don't understand high school," and sighed:
"It's the homeroom teachers and subject teachers who work overtime with students on Saturdays, not the leaders. Most leaders have weekends, and they have healthy weekends."
"Yes, this high school has classes on Saturdays and Sundays, but there are some breaks. Students are dismissed after the last class on Saturday afternoons and are expected back on campus before 8 a.m. on Sundays. To be exact, 7:50 a.m. because the bell rings ten minutes early. The teachers do work overtime, too, because they're not studying on their own, but giving extra lessons."
Shi Can: “…”
What devil school?
Lin Zhuyue was not surprised at all and calmly picked up the cup to drink milk tea.
Well, that's what high school is like.
As long as you can't roll it to death, roll it to death. Shi Can stood up and said firmly:
"No matter what, the school leaders have to work overtime today. Let's go, the sweeper—"
Shican took the folder and strode out of the office.
"Don't call me a sweeper!"
Lin Zhuyue took a step to chase him, and when he reached the door, he turned back and politely said goodbye to Fu Xingwei.
"Goodbye, teacher. Shichan! Slow down!"
Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can went home to pack their luggage, drove an extremely crash-resistant white Buick (this might be the cheapest car in Shi Can's family), and were taken across the sea by a cruise ship. After arriving in Linhai City, they got on the highway to Wuju City.
While on the road, Lin Zhuyue tried to contact the principal of Wuju City No. 16 Middle School. The call was connected, but no one answered.
Shi Can said, "Contact the local National Security Bureau. When the school contacted the Spiritual Master's Mansion, it went through the Wuju City National Security Bureau. The phone number should be on the document."
Lin Zhuyue contacted the National Security Bureau as instructed.
Shi Chan asked, “How do you say that?”
"After the little girl named Zhong Tingbai jumped from the building, it attracted widespread attention. The Provincial Education Bureau took notice of No. 16 Middle School's excessive tutoring. From high-ranking officials down to junior executives, they called the Wuju City Education Bureau dozens of times a day to criticize it. Of course, the Municipal Education Bureau wanted to contact the principal. But the principal played dead and refused to answer any of the calls."
Lin Zhuyue pulled the corner of his mouth and said,
"The National Security Bureau said they'll send someone to knock on the principal's door right now."
