Chapter 49 True Meditation(1/2)
Curly Baboon Research Society? If my sister hadn't been in a good mood, Lumian would have laughed out loud.
But even though he controlled his laughter, he couldn't help but say:
"If you know, you are studying curly baboons, and if you don't know, you think a group of curly baboons are doing research."
Of course, he was just kidding because the word "study" is a passive voice.
Orol gave him a blank look:
"We ourselves often tease ourselves, saying that it is a group of curly baboons being studied."
Seeing that my sister was in a better condition, Lumian turned to ask:
"Are all the members of your research association extraordinary?"
"Not all." Orol replied briefly, "but some parties are not allowed to attend."
She didn't say why she couldn't participate.
"Who is the president? How many vice presidents are there in total?" Lumian asked.
"Are you checking your household registration book?" Orol replied angrily.
"Ah?" Lumian was confused when he heard this.
In fact, he could probably guess what his sister said, "a small notebook that records the situation of family personnel" refers to the specific situation of the "curly baboon research association", which means that he does not like to inquire too detailed.
Orol bulged his mouth and breathed:
"The president's code name is 'Gandalff', with a total of five vice presidents.
"Okay, I'm going to summon the messenger of 'Hela'."
Lumian nodded first, then became a little confused:
"Orol, uh, sister, don't you say you only know the code name 'Hela', don't you know what she is called? How can you summon her messenger?"
He remembered that his sister had just said that changing the last paragraph of the summoning spell to "the messenger who belongs to so-and-so" could point to the target creature very accurately, but now he doesn't know who "six-and-so" is.
"Very good." Ollor praised, "It is excellent learning quality to be able to find the problem. Let's put it this way, it doesn't matter what name you use when signing a contract with a spiritual creature. The contract will automatically extract a little real breath from you, making the two parties related. However, remember that you can only use the name you wrote when signing the contract. Changing it to your real name will be invalid."
Lumian thought carefully and said:
"I understand, the key is breath and connection. The name when signing the contract is only equivalent to the spell used in the subsequent summoning. It doesn't matter what you write."
"Yes." Orol nodded slightly.
Lumian suddenly laughed:
"Is there such a situation? Suppose, I say, sister, you have obtained the accurate spell and summoned a messenger and signed a contract with it in the name of Orol Li. After that, you taught me that spell because you love your younger brother, that is, me. I successfully summoned another messenger, but when signing the contract, it was fun for a while, and I also signed it in the name of Orol Li.
"Then the question is, which one will be summoned by the description of 'Orol Lee'?"
Ollor's face turned blue:
"I don't have a messenger, how do I know!"
She let out a sigh, calmed down, and said while thinking:
"This is actually a confusion of direction caused by the duplicate name. Compared to ordinary contract creatures that can only summon themselves, messengers summoned by others are indeed prone to this problem. However, because I don't have messengers, I am not sure if there is a special mechanism to avoid similar errors. I can only try to analyze them based on my knowledge:
"One, there are very few people with messengers, and the probability of a duplicate name is so low that it is almost negligible.
"2. If you really have a duplicate name, you can place items with the aura of the messenger in the summoning ceremony and use it to accurately lock them.
"Third, you are really afraid of a duplicate name. When signing a contract, you can make the name longer, such as Lumian Torres, Ale, Arthur German, Sparo Lee, so there should be no duplicate name."
"But it's very likely that I forgot this name just after signing the contract, it's too hard to remember." Lumian murmured, "Also, why add the name of the Shanghai Poker and the Big Adventurer?"
"Because I like it, Ms. Forth Wall's adventure novel series is so classic." Orol was confident.
She turned her body, tidied up the altar, and prepared to hold a formal summoning ceremony.
At this moment, Lumian thought of something and shouted:
"Wait a moment!"
"What's wrong?" Orol turned around, looking confused.
Lumian asked seriously:
"Does the messenger belong to an outsider?"
"..." Orol had a question mark at first, not understanding what his brother meant, but he quickly figured out the problem.
She asked remarkably:
"You mean, when you come to Kordu as a messenger of an outsider, you will fall into a cycle and you will never be able to leave again?"
Before Lumian could answer, Orol had a new guess:
"No, the situation will be more serious. It is a contracted creature. After receiving the letter, it will go to 'Hela' immediately, which is equivalent to leaving Kordu, and then restarting again.
"After that, it left again and again because of instinct, and we restarted again and again, and there was no time to investigate the key to the cycle."
Lumian couldn't help but imagine the scene described by his sister:
I just opened my eyes and saw the familiar bedroom, then opened my eyes and saw the familiar bedroom, and then opened my eyes and saw the familiar bedroom... I repeated this action countless times, and the root of everything was that a messenger was anxious to "go home".
Orol raised his hand and covered his forehead:
"I can't even imagine what changes will happen at that time..."
After sighing, she analyzed seriously:
"From the current situation, living things leave Kordu and the surrounding areas will cause a cycle to restart, while inanimate substances will not touch the limit. The telegram taken out and the letter sent out are proof.
"If this is true, the spirit will definitely not work. It seems that the messenger cannot be summoned."
Hearing this, Lumian suddenly figured out why Xiaolan Shu can maintain the state of words being cut off.
The cut paper left the village of Kordu, left this cycle, no longer affected, and would not return, so Xiao Lanshu naturally could not restore its original state!
He told his sister this speculation and finally said:
"Xiao Lanshu's problem was solved, but how did that letter be sent?
"It is definitely impossible to send it away during the cycle. Once the sender leaves Kordu, it will cause a restart. If it is before the cycle, I have no impression of you, what about you?"
"I don't have it either." Orol thought for a few seconds and cursed with a smile, "You idiot, almost made me think wrong. It's very easy to send a letter in a loop!"
"Ah?" Lumian looked at his smart sister.
Orol smiled:
“There is no need for a postman to send a letter or a hiring sender.
"When we find an abnormality and don't want to disturb those who may have problems, the best choice is to find a wooden box, put the prepared help letter in it, seal it, and then throw the wooden box into the river outside the village, so that it will naturally float downstream, wait for people from other villages and even Darege to help us give it to the official.
"I said that we have confirmed the last cycle that the cycle contains a small part of the river and can be reached."
"Yes!" Lumian suddenly closed his palms.
He thought of another question:
"Will fish in the river cause reboot?"
"It shouldn't be." Orol thought, "This kind of creatures with no intelligence are very sensitive to invisible restrictions, or are more susceptible to invisible influence. They are likely to instinctively not approaching places that may cause rebooting."
"What about your 'white paper'? In twelve hours, it will have to leave the real world." Lumian felt that this would also restart the loop.
Orol looked around and thought:
“I suspect that the cycle not only includes the village of Kordu and the surrounding mountains, but also includes the area corresponding to the spiritual world where everyone here is.
"You shouldn't know that there are actually quite a lot of natural interactions between the spiritual world and reality. If you don't include the corresponding spiritual world, you may restart every once in a while and restart every once in a while. This is obviously not the case now.
"As my contracted creature, 'Blank Paper' has a direct connection with Kordu Village, and the spiritual world it travels in is likely to be included."
I still don’t know enough about mysticism…Lumian won’t ask more questions.
Orol demonstrated the process of ritual magic again, and lifted the wall of spirituality.
In the sudden invisible wind, she said to Lumian:
"Now that it's all dark, I'll teach you how to truly meditate and open your spiritual vision."
"Yeah, yeah." Lumian said that he was listening carefully.
Orol explained:
“You have mastered the first half of meditation, and we start from the second half.
"When you imagine that sun, keep your spirits tight and enter a calm state, let your head relax slightly, outline a thing that does not exist in reality to replace the sun, constantly outline and repeat until your body and mind are at peace, and your thoughts have a feeling of floating up."
"Things that don't exist in reality?" Lumian didn't understand very much.
Orol took out the paper and pen and drew it a few times:
"Look, are there anything like this in reality?"
There are very abstract things on the paper, like balls with eyes and smacked on the face.
"Don't you have it after you draw it? This painting is in reality." Lumian felt that his sister's explanation was not correct.
