Chapter 28 Dominoes?
Not only did Dai Xuan have surgery all night, Chen Tongda also went to the Education College to handle the matter.
Chen Mingluo is naturally unable to stay idle when he is alone. He has a rare opportunity to be alone at home, so he naturally has to make good use of it.
When making the jade plate of the Spirit Gathering Array, Chen Mingluo also wondered if it was consistent with the sixty-four hexagrams of the Book of Changes? However, after carefully studying the symbols engraved on the sixty-four jade plates, he found that there was no similarity in them, and the symbols were different, which was completely different like the yin and yang lines in the sixty-four hexagrams of the Book of Changes.
"It's neither binary nor decimal, nor hexadecimal, what is this? It looks more like some randomly arranged hieroglyphs-" Chen Mingluo studied for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what the meaning of these actually mean.
It was just mentioned in Hong Jun’s notes that these symbols should be the words in the Book of Heaven, and it is appropriate for mortals to not understand them.
The naughty text of the Heavenly Book! Chen Mingluo curled his lips with some disdain. Although he did meet the staff in the underworld, he was naturally a theist, the text they used was also the standard simplified Chinese GB-2132 encoding, or they occasionally used some English letters, such as CNM, TMD, TNND, etc.
Where are the words of the heavenly book?!
However, this did not affect Chen Mingluo's personal inspection of the effectiveness of the Spirit Gathering Array. According to the records in Hong Jun's notes, he arranged the sixty-four jade plates into a circular array in strict order.
"You need an object that is not among the five elements to be placed in it?" Chen Mingluo frowned when he saw this.
According to Hong Jun’s notes, the center of the spirit gathering array, that is, the one contacted by the caster, should be an object that is not among the five elements. Chen Mingluo naturally knew the five elements, and it was nothing more than gold, wood, water, fire and earth. However, he was not sure what was beyond these five basic elements. After all, it is hard to say what transcends the concept of the five elements.
Chen Mingluo glanced around the house, and then stared at something, which was a plastic round stool that he usually used when he was cool outside. This thing should not be included in the five elements, right?
At least Chen Mingluo believes that artificially synthesized plastic seems to be able to transcend the five elements.
"Let's give it a try." Chen Mingluo thought for a while, then moved the plastic round stool to the center of the spirit gathering array.
The most efficient way to achieve the spirit gathering array is the two periods of time in Ziwu, so Chen Mingluo waited until it was almost midnight before he sat on the plastic round stool, and then recited the difficult-to-mouthed spells over and over again according to the records in Hong Jun’s notes.
Chen Mingluo could not remember how many times he recited the spell, but suddenly it seemed that the surroundings were silent. He could not even hear the chirping of crickets at night. Then he found that the wind was blowing under his body, and it seemed that countless warm currents began to gather towards him. His body suddenly felt relieved.
按说现在是大夏天,暖流入体应该是感觉到很热才对的,但是陈明洛此时的感觉却又是另外一番滋味儿,偏偏觉得非常舒服,是那种让人心旷神怡的感觉,而且更有一点是让人欣喜的,那就是脑子里面一片清明,冷静得不像是一个人所能够拥有的.
I don’t know how long this feeling lasted, and then the effectiveness of the Spirit Gathering Array finally faded.
When Chen Mingluo opened his eyes, he looked up at the wall clock on the wall and found that it was already past three o'clock in the morning.
Chen Mingluo jumped off the plastic bench, stretched his arms and legs, and found that he had been sitting in this position for more than three hours, but he didn't feel any discomfort in his body. It seemed that this spirit gathering array was indeed effective.
Although he was not very clear about what kind of changes the spirit gathering array could bring to him, Chen Mingluo felt clear thinking and energetic, and his body's functions were in the most perfect state. He suddenly thought that if he took the exam in this state, he would definitely be able to perform at the best state.
At this time, he lost all sleepiness. He thought about things in the room for a while, then looked at Hong Jun's notes carefully. Before he knew it, it was almost six o'clock in the morning.
Chen Mingluo hurriedly calmed down and carefully picked up the jade plates placed on the ground one by one, put them in a cardboard box, and arranged them in order for the next use.
During the sorting process, Chen Mingluo discovered something. The jade plate that he used once seemed to have become better than before.
Because of the limited conditions in Huzhou, although you can buy jade, the quality will definitely not be very good, which is just possible to use. However, Chen Mingluo found that the color of these jade plates has changed a little and has become more shiny, rather than the pure white that was just gray and gray.
Chen Mingluo noticed this change and deliberately compared some unused jade plates. He found that although the difference was very small, it existed. He couldn't help but wonder whether these ordinary jade plates would become the best jade after a period of use?
This is indeed a hesitant question.
He cleaned up at home for a while and heard the sound of his mother Dai Xuan entering the door. When he dragged the cardboard box under the bed, he saw that Dai Xuan had already entered the house. Seeing that he was busy here, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you busy with in such an early morning?"
As he said that, Dai Xuan walked over and saw the neatly tidy jade plates inside the cardboard box.
Chen Mingluo naturally couldn't say that he was building a spirit gathering array, so he made excuses, "Oh, it's a domino."
"Domino?" Dai Xuan looked at the mahjong-sized jade plate inside the box, but did not think about it anywhere else.
A while ago, Dai Xuan heard Chen Mingluo say that there are some extracurricular interest groups in their school, which are very famous, and some teachers have also said that if these things are done well, they are likely to win some awards from the province. By the time of the college entrance examination, they can get extra points of ten or twenty.
Therefore, Dai Xuan thought this was also one of the activities of Chen Mingluo and his friends in the school, but she did not expect that her son was doing feudal superstition activities at home these days.
