Chapter 2 Rules
The three lines of text are easy to understand.
The first column is his name.
The second so-called guiding technique was actually the guiding technique he had learned from the Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain. It was also known as the Five Elements Technique, which had two cultivation modes: standing meditation and breathing exercises. He had been very enthusiastic and had indeed practiced diligently for a period of time.
After three months, there were no results; at most, his health improved a little, so he gradually became lax.
Unexpectedly, I was brought in, and it was also displayed on this panel.
Does that mean that other things might also be true?
As for the last column of psionic points... he had no idea what they were.
Until his gaze fell on the two black handprints on his feet.
Psionic Points +0.01
This black handprint can be absorbed and then converted into psionic points?
What else is there to think about?
He quickly continued to observe, and soon discovered that he could control the system and absorb the gloomy power within the hand seal simply by thinking about it.
Then he saw that the psionic points on the attribute panel were increasing evenly.
Psionic Points +0.01
Psionic Points +0.01
The points gained were few, but the increase continued indefinitely.
Moreover, he could clearly feel that the handprints on his feet were slowly fading.
……
"It appears in three days and disappears in five."
These handprints were indeed left by that thing.
After so long, that thing has probably already located Xiaoshuang's position.
And I just checked the doorway and confirmed that the other person had indeed been here.
Upon seeing this, Liu Quan spoke with a grave expression.
"what?"
Zhou Yuehong looked panicked.
"I just had a dream that someone was knocking on the door."
I opened it, and then that thing floated over.
Qin Shuang then shifted her attention away from the panel and quickly spoke.
He then realized that this Grandpa Liu was capable, probably similar to the people in his previous life's "professions," specializing in handling these "things."
In his previous life, such "things" were rare, and he had often only heard of them but had never actually come into contact with them.
But the world is different.
In my memory, these "things" all actually existed.
Demons, ghosts, monsters, evil spirits... each one is a deadly being.
If an ordinary person were to encounter this, they would either die or be seriously injured.
of course.
Where there are demons and monsters, there are naturally people who deal with them.
Grandpa Liu must be this kind of person.
"Did it come in?"
Liu Quan then asked.
"No.
I remember it was stopped by the threshold when it floated over.
Then I woke up, and a little while later you all came back.
Qin Shuang quickly replied.
"That's alright."
Otherwise, it will take you away in less than seven days.
Liu Quan nodded and said, "It seems that some rules do have an effect on it."
"Rules? What rules?"
Qin Zheng, who was standing to the side, quickly asked.
"Humans have their own principles, and ghosts and monsters naturally have their own set of rules as well."
When people like us deal with them, we often follow these rules.
For example, this house, in their eyes, is someone else's territory, and they won't come in without permission, nor do they dare to.
Because every household worships door gods and kitchen gods, and some prosperous families also worship ancestral tablets, all of which can provide protection for people.
With the gatekeepers blocking their way, how dare they come in?
Unless someone provokes them and they harbor a lot of resentment, they won't care about anything else.
Furthermore, since Xiaoshuang opened the door, in a sense, she blocked the door god, allowing it to enter naturally.
Fortunately, the room had a threshold, which served as the boundary between Yin and Yang. Ghosts could only float close to the ground, and this threshold prevented it from entering directly.
Liu Quan explained patiently.
Upon hearing this, Qin Shuang also felt that she had learned something new.
"However, this threshold can only stop it for a while."
If it comes again this time, this threshold won't stop it; it can easily cross it and take the person away.
Then, Liu Quan continued speaking.
"Huh? Uncle Liu, what should we do next?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuehong's face paled, and she hurriedly asked anxiously, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. Why is this damned thing specifically targeting my Xiaoshuang?"
Qin Zhengze, standing to the side, looked fierce and said, "At worst, we'll fight that thing to the death."
"Don't rush."
Liu Quan waved his hand and said, "This water ghost is an old ghost that has been around for many years. It has been in the water for a long time and has accumulated a lot of resentment. It is only when it encounters a person that it cannot help but want to harm them."
It was Xiaoshuang's bad luck that she fell into the water when the sun was at its strongest, giving it the opportunity.
Fortunately, the water under the bridge was shallow, otherwise Xiaoshuang would not have been able to climb out.
However, the handprint it left under Xiaoshuang's feet is its mark. It appears for three days and disappears for five. The deeper the mark, the stronger its sense of touch.
That's why they came directly to our door today, wanting to take Xiaoshuang away.
As Liu Quan spoke, he frowned and continued, "So, the first thing we need to do now is to remove the two black marks under his feet."
Qin Shuang's heart tightened, and she subconsciously glanced at her ankle again.
Two dark handprints were still imprinted on it, but they had faded slightly from their original dark color to a lighter color, as if they had been washed with water.
In his field of vision, the numbers on the panel were still changing.
Psionic Points +0.01
Psionic Points +0.01
……
Psionic Points: 0.17
In just a short while, they had already accumulated nearly 0.2 points of spiritual energy.
He didn't know exactly what the psionic points were for, but since they were listed on the panel, they were definitely not just for show.
"Uncle Liu, how do I remove this handprint?"
Qin Shuang's father quickly asked.
Liu Quan did not answer immediately. Instead, he walked up to Qin Shuang, squatted down, took out a piece of yellow cloth from his pocket, spread it on the ground, took out a small porcelain bottle, uncorked it, and poured some dark red powder onto the yellow cloth.
A strong smell of cinnabar mixed with the aroma of other medicinal herbs filled the air.
"This is an exorcising powder. It can expel evil spirits and dispel negative energy. Use it to seal the mark, and it should gradually fade away." Liu Quan said, gesturing for Qin Shuang to extend her foot. "It might hurt a little, so bear with it."
Qin Shuang hesitated for a moment, then nodded and stretched out her foot.
Although he believed that with the attribute panel, he should be able to remove the black mark quickly and increase his spiritual energy points, he dared not act rashly in front of this mysterious Grandpa Liu, thus revealing this fact.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Quan poured some powder that looked like incense ash, mixed it, moistened it with water to make a thick paste, and then evenly applied it to Qin Shuang's two black handprints.
snort~
Like water droplets splashing onto a red-hot iron plate, a wisp of white smoke actually rose up.
Qin Shuang gasped, feeling a burning pain in her ankle, but it quickly turned cool and wasn't as unbearable as she had imagined.
To his surprise, the growth rate of the psionic points on the panel actually accelerated as Liu Quan made his movements.
Psionic Points +0.05
Psionic Points +0.07
