0717_ good luck

The magic circle started working after a week.When they heard that someone was hit by a ghost on the wall, the brats celebrated happily; when the bosses were so worried that they lost their hair, the brats happily prepared to go to other places to set up a formation .

In fact, they really did it again, in the teaching building of their own school, but this time it didn't work.

Regarding the magic circle map they obtained, it was not a conspiracy.

Many sects put their own basics in the mortal world for mortals to study at will, which of course also includes the basics of array cultivation.From the perspective of trying without seeking success and purely satisfying novelty and curiosity, array cultivation is a relatively easy content for ordinary people to practice.

Unlike alchemy and instrument cultivation, which require raw materials, and sword cultivation and body cultivation, when it comes to the basics, it is physical training that makes people unable to persist, array cultivation and talisman cultivation can be done on paper.A pen and a piece of paper, no matter whether the drawing is effective or not, it looks like a fairy anyway.

——Ghost symbols that normal people can't understand.

After seeing a lot of basics, mortals will also innovate and design, splitting, combining, and deforming the schematic diagram of the magic circle on the basic information... to create the magic circle of mortals.Some of these recreated magic circles have become part of the artist's works; most of them are treated as jokes, and they are just graffiti; Effect.

The circle diagrams drawn by the brats are of the last type.

Of course, it was impossible for them to inject spiritual power when they drew the lines of the magic circle with transparent paint, but they were energized, and then in the process of hiding from people, the magic circle was drawn intermittently, and the electricity was also switched on and off, and finally reached a suitable The rhythm makes the magic circle take effect.

However, the magic circle they drew is not the same as the magic circle diagram they refer to.

People without professional skills can inherently make mistakes when zooming in on drawings.The proportions are wrong, the lines are skewed, it's all normal, not to mention that they are still drawing together with multiple people, and they have to prevent people from being discovered in the middle, so it's strange if they don't make mistakes.

But this was a wonderful mistake, changing a rare success circle from a mortal into another success circle from a mortal.

In terms of probability, the probability of a mortal creating a new magic circle by chance—whether it has practical value or not—is about one in ten thousand, and among them, the ones that can be driven only by electric energy are one in ten million.

The magic circle map that the bear children got was one in ten thousandth, and they drew a one in ten million according to that one in ten thousandth.

In addition, it needs to be explained that being able to be driven by electric energy does not mean that it can be driven as long as there is electricity. It also depends on where the power is connected from the magic circle, when it is connected, and the drawing environment of the magic circle.

To be honest, these brats might as well buy lottery tickets instead of playing pranks.The odds of winning the lottery are much higher than the odds of their prank being successful.They completely wasted their good luck that day, and look at them, they tried to draw magic circles in the school and tried to suspend the school, so they failed.

0718_ gas gathering

Zhong Jiao didn't follow the normal process to investigate first and then solve it, but to break the formation first, and then investigate the cause and effect.

She first observed the effect of the formation at night, and after dawn, cut off the power, directly burned the paint, and solved it—that kind of drawing method, don’t expect the formation to have any defensive power. The number of people is limited, just stepping on it and grinding it, the number of times is enough to destroy the formation.

The formation, no matter whether the formation is intentional or unintentional, is related to the formation. Maybe it is hidden deeper, and it is difficult for others to find it, or it is not hidden at all, and it can be discovered after careful study of the formation.The side effect of this is that the formation of ghosts hitting the wall is of course the latter. After Zhong Jiao broke the formation, he followed the connection to find all the brats and figured out the whole process.

In addition, the real function of this formation is actually to gather good luck and have the effect of attracting wealth and wealth.Those employees who were hit by ghosts on the wall were actually affected by the blessing array and fell into a dream.They think that they are just dreaming when they take the elevator down, run down the stairs, jump out of the window, etc., not only dreaming, but also sleepwalking, such as sleepwalking from the second floor to the top floor.

In the process of gathering blessings, the array absorbed some of the blessings of these employees, causing them to fall into a panic, so they had unpleasant dreams, but this is a simple array after all, and the amount that can be absorbed is very small, so the dream Just a slight unpleasantness.

As for the bosses who stayed after dark and did not fall into a dream, it was because they stayed during that time basically to verify that there was no ghost hitting the wall. The employees who work all day and work overtime until night come here, they are full of energy, and naturally they are not easily affected, just like some employees did not encounter ghosts hitting the wall.

In fact, the detectives hired by the bosses have already discovered this. The employees who encountered the ghost hitting the wall were all very tired from work that day. The detectives speculated that these people were probably in a trance when they encountered the ghost hitting the wall. , but the detectives came to the conclusion that they followed the employer's wishes, and became: "This kind of mental state, if someone deliberately misleads, it is easy to cause illusions."

There is another reason why the bosses did not encounter ghosts hitting the wall, because one of the people who set up the formation was the son of a boss—he did not set up the formation himself but assisted in the formation, and he was also one of the related people of the formation—so the blessing formation gathered The blessing that came along spread to his father whom he met every day. This father firmly believed that there is no such thing as a ghost, so under the care of Fufu, he and his boss partner discussed with him to set an example to break the rumors. It is even less likely for them to encounter ghosts hitting the wall.

0719_Be more tolerant of yourself

"You missed a simple task." Zhong Jiao said to me.

Me: "I don't lack the amount of tasks." On the contrary, because Zhong Jiao is sometimes impatient during the task process, failures or low completions occur from time to time, her task amount records are relatively dangerous, and often have negative values. Although due to diligence, it can be pulled back to a positive value soon, but due to improper methods, it will return to a negative value after a while.

Zhong Jiao sneered: "If you do less, you will make fewer mistakes. Mistakes are also an experience."

She is right.My high task volume record is mainly because I basically don’t accept unsure tasks. This certainly increases the success rate and proves my judgment in choosing tasks, but it lacks the sense of urgency to turn the tide on the verge of failure and the introspection after failure , does have a negative effect.

But I still don't like losing.If you have to pick it up, it’s another matter. When I can choose, I really don’t want to embarrass myself.Assuming my ability is eight, I am willing to take on tasks with six or seven difficulties, occasionally consider five and eight or nine, and never consider one to four, ten or more.

From the perspective of exercise, I should mainly take eight or nine tasks, which can force me to go all out and try to perform beyond normal.But that kind of task makes me nervous, I don't like to be nervous, I'm... just more lenient with myself...

My father also said that although it is not good to relax all the time, it is also not good to press yourself all the time. Only you can control the speed.As long as I don’t choose difficult tasks because I don’t like it and not because I’m afraid, when I need to do difficult tasks, I can concentrate on making a plan and execute it accurately, instead of being at a loss and afraid to start, and I usually live easily There is nothing to blame.

My dad: "Most people don't like failure. As long as you are sure that you don't like it, it doesn't matter. So, are you sure you are not afraid of failure?"

Me: "It's not that I haven't failed..."

I don't care about failure because of the thick skin I inherited from my previous life.In the previous life, I failed the exam, offended others, and got blasted when I grabbed the boss... In this life, I cut myself when I practiced swords, exploded in alchemy, and grew pears from apples...

Is it rare to fail?If you fail, you should continue to live. Redo what needs to be redone, and change what you should do if you don’t need to redo.Do I still have to cry for failure?

My brother: "This lazy attitude is really reassuring. I will never be impulsive and make mistakes."

My sister: "Is this laziness? Is this dead skin? It may delay the fighter plane."

Do your respective tasks, and don't use me as an excuse for the two of you to strangle.

0720_communication

Zhong Jiao returned to Yunxia Zong with two copies of the magic circle to hand in the task. Those two magic circles would become Fu Xiufeng's research materials, and a new magic circle might be derived in the near future.

Ordinary people's whimsical ideas often bring inspiration to the realm of comprehension. New pills, magic tools, talismans, formulas, and spiritual plants have all been influenced by medicines, electrical appliances, and artworks in the mortal world.There are always similarities in human thinking, and similar methods of creation and transformation. Even though mortals and monks live in two worlds, the two worlds have never been completely isolated.

Human beings need to communicate, and the greater the gap between people, the more they need to communicate, which creates interesting sparks.

All cultivation sects have more or less offices in the mortal world, and they continue to accept tasks in the mortal world. Even though many of the tasks are not profitable for the cultivation sect, first, the cultivation sect will not let themselves lose money, Second, extra gains such as this magic circle will appear from time to time, and no sect is willing to give up such a small surprise completely.

While Zhong Jiao was doing the task, Wu Heng's hamster also arrived.

The one he picked from Yan Ziqi was just the real hamster shape.Unlike the hamster spirit beast in Yan Ziqi's hand, which has a mouse tail, Wu Heng's new partner has only a handful of tails. Except for the tail and the top of the head, which are black, the rest of the fur is white. It's just a hamster.

Yan Ziqi also provided Wu Heng with breeding instructions, including hamster recipes, daily activity requirements, sleep requirements, water intake, list of disgusting things, etc.

Since Yan Ziqi was very young when she came to Yunxia Sect, she has been in the Qi training period and cannot freely enter and leave the sect, and unlike me, she also consulted a lot of information on the mortal world, so her memory of the mortal world is very vague , the breeding instructions for Wu Heng are full of things that are not easy to find in the mortal world or even not at all.

Wu Heng was confused, so he could only ask me.

I concluded: "Follow the ordinary hamster's raising method, but you don't have to keep it in the cage all the time. You can keep it in the cage for a few days at the beginning, let it get used to your breath, know that you are its owner, and then you can put it in the cage. Yes, it will follow you by itself. If you need to put it somewhere temporarily, you can also tell it directly, it can understand. You can also try to make it eat human food, its body is stronger than ordinary hamsters There are too many, digestion ability is also, and it is born to know what can and cannot be eaten, what is dangerous, and what is beneficial. You put things in front of it, and it will distinguish by itself. Of course, the premise of all this is that it has recognized you and is willing to stay. Be there for you. Treat it well, and it will return the same kindness to you."

Without external help, it is impossible for ordinary people to sign a contract with ordinary beasts, and I will not help with this, so the connection between Wu Heng and this hamster can only be based on emotional exchanges, but small animals are very simple, as long as you treat it well , it will double the rewards, so it is not difficult for Wu Heng to really own this hamster. After all, it is a valuable item worth his annual income. .
