Strange light

Stephen fell silent after saying this, obviously realizing something was wrong.

She didn't care, she raised her head and showed him a big, almost extravagant smile.She stood facing the rising sun, her brown eyes were like melting amber, shining with a moving luster.Whenever she showed a smile, there seemed to be honey in it, as if it could penetrate into his heart.

At this moment, the light golden light seemed to have coated her with a layer of glaze, so exquisite that it was almost blurred.

He never cared about her appearance. In the memory of the injury that he still hasn't come out of, her image is formatted, like a complete program, and every movement is reasonable enough to be ignored.

Before the intersection of life and death on Mount Everest, she was probably a pair of soft hands in his heart, warm and delicate.Just a pair of hands.But after the bitterly cold test, accompanied by her bleak voice, her image was transformed from a conceptual symbol into a living person with flesh and blood, keen and optimistic.

His world has always been clearly divided into three parts: patients, passers-by who are abstract and symbolic, and friends and family.The first two cover most social structures.And the third category is the top of the pyramid, which must step on countless indifference and ridicule before it can stand precariously.Palmer is one of them.Now, there is another Rebecca.

"Come on, let's go to breakfast. Hope it's not lentil soup today."

After Li Qiu finished speaking, he walked towards the door. Behind her, Stephen followed her without saying a word, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Being placed at the top of the pyramid does not mean safety, on the contrary, she will get more attention from him.He was anxious to know the strange cause of her physical condition.In the past half a month, he has read a lot of books, and none of them mentioned or appeared similar spells.Maybe it's a forbidden technique.Maybe... It's an abnormal state of some kind of spiritual body.

Thinking of this, Stephen unconsciously recalled that when he first met Gu Yi, he punched his soul out of his body with a palm.

Since then, his world has been turned upside down.

"what do you want?"

In late autumn, under the fiery red maple trees, the sassy autumn wind swirls and shakes the fallen leaves all over the ground. After Stephen came out of the restaurant, he said goodbye to Rebecca and went straight to Karma Taj's library.

"I want a book about the out-of-body experience." He said to Wang solemnly.

Wang looked up and down the young man in front of him with narrow eyes with single eyelids. A month ago, his appearance was downcast, his heart was full of doubts, and he had nothing.Today, he is neatly dressed, and his blue eyes are determined and vigorous.

The king was expressionless: "You are not ready yet."

"Try it," Stephen said. "Beyoncé."

Wang's face was expressionless.

"God, you should have heard. She's a superstar."

Wang continued to be expressionless.

"You didn't respond?" Stephen had no choice but to turn his head away from Wang Luehei's face, "Please, show me."

"No." Wang refused.

Stephen, who got frustrated with the king, didn't give up, but he didn't intend to implement the plan now. A perfect action needs the right time to execute.In Rebecca's words, it's the right time, place and people.

Sometimes he was puzzled, as clumsy as she was when she faltered in performing some of the most basic magic circles, but she was often able to say something refreshing.Judging from some small daily details, she is a person who is so perceptive as to be frightening.

Just like now, everyone is in a hurry, coming and going through the courtyard covered with red maple leaves. No one notices that under the fiery red maple tree, there is a forgotten magic weapon shining faintly. Weak golden, inconspicuous amidst the freshly fallen maple leaves.

The leaves under my feet were scattered by the wind, rubbing against the brick ground and swirling low.Encountering the delicate pattern of the bulge, it is like a stranded boat, stagnating.Under the blowing of the autumn wind, these leaves gradually aggregated and got stuck in the gaps between the floor tiles.From a distance, it looks like a crimson border was inlaid on the old stone brick pattern, and it was re-traceable.

Stephen remembered that it was recorded in the book "Kama Taj's Past" that the pattern of floor tiles in this courtyard was set by Gu Yi's former companion, Kaluyu, and it was an ancient summoning circle.Being inlaid on the ground has no practical function, but only serves as a symbol of spirit.

This has nothing to do with it, even if the leaves form the shape of the magic circle, they are still leaves and will not have substantial changes.However, because of the existence of the magic weapon, the assembled circuit just happened to be equipped with a battery.

Leaves, artifacts, wind.These three objects coincidentally rubbed the magic circle.

Stephen knew that once this magic circle was formed, the consequences would be disastrous.But he was just curious about what would be summoned, and the content of this in the book was only vaguely mentioned.He would not admit that he also secretly cast a few wind spells to fuel the flames.

"Stephen? Have you borrowed the book?" Li Qiu just came out of the toilet when he saw Stephen, and after saying goodbye to the Asian lady next to him, he greeted him happily.

On her way to him, on purpose or not, she just passed the raised pattern and kicked away the conglomerated leaves.

"Eh? Whose magic weapon." When passing by the red maple tree, she pushed aside the pile of leaves, "The dagger? Leon must have forgotten it here last night."

Stephen just watched her helplessly, and easily broke up the ingenious magic circle. He thought it was a coincidence, but in the next second, he heard her chanting.

"Karuyu's summoning circle? You still have to talk to Gu Yi, you can't use the magic circle as a decoration. It's easy to be used by others to cause trouble."

Stephen, who was involved in the trouble, seemed to have been stabbed in the back. He was silent for half a second, and then said, "I didn't borrow the book. Wang said I'm not ready yet."

"Don't listen to his nonsense, you are always ready." She was confident in dr.strange, "I'll go and talk to him later."

Another big doubt.He remembered that when he glanced at it briefly, Rebecca's resume clearly stated that she did not graduate from high school, her biological father died early, and her mother married a taxi driver. Her family was poor, and she was a true New Yorker.There is simply no economic cost and class environment to learn Chinese.

"Hug the king, let's go~" She stood in front of Wang's desk, rolled her tongue, and said flatteringly.

Wang raised his head from the book on the table, glanced at her expressionlessly, then lowered his head and continued reading.

"You don't look so good. I brought pastries, want to try them?" Li Qiu smiled, showing two rows of white teeth, "Mooncakes with pineapple and egg yolk. It's just out of the oven~"

"Shut up." Wang really felt that she was noisy, so he couldn't help but said, "Stop flattering me with your poor Cantonese, tell me, what do you want?"

"Hey, old Wang," she rubbed her nose, put the freshly baked and steaming phoenix cakes on the table, and said cheekily, "I want to borrow books about spirit bodies, the kind where the soul is out of the body."

"Stephen asked you to come?"

"No, I want to see it myself. You know my situation. You don't have any hope for Gu Yi anymore. You want to be self-reliant and see if you can untie it yourself. You know, I don't dare to eat every time I eat now. There are too many, and I have to go to the toilet when no one is around to vomit out everything I ate. Woohoo...it's too painful." She defended.

Seeing her trying to be pitiful and even shedding two tears, Wang snorted softly to express his disbelief.

Li Qiu's brown eyes widened, shining brightly from the undried tears, trying to be cute.

Wang's expression didn't change at all. In the dim light, he looked like a sculpture.

"Hey, hey, you're inhuman."

She had no choice but to make a defiant accusation and left in despair.

Li Qiu, who didn't fulfill his promise to dr.strange, was in a bad mood all day.In the afternoon theory class, she frequently lost her mind, and even the Asian ladies and sisters refused to invite her to drink milk tea in the Tamil area at the foot of the mountain.

Stephen noticed it, and when she lowered her head, she walked towards the outside of the classroom with a scroll in her arms, and stood in front of her decisively.

"Rebecca, if you are depressed because you didn't borrow the book for me, it is far from necessary." He stood facing her sideways, his dark red robe was elegant and straight.

"No." Her eyes fell on the thin leather belt around his thin waist, and she said with a normal expression, "I was just thinking about the formation of Quasimodo that I learned in the morning. It's brilliant."

lie.

Stephen knew it well, but didn't point it out, "I want to ask you a little favor."

"What's the matter?" She looked up suddenly, her chocolate-colored eyes lit up.

Seeing her reaction, Stephen thought inexplicably of the beauty that he raised when he was a child. Whenever he acted like a baby or was excited, his eyes would open wide, as if the whole world was reflected in it.

I don't know when, maybe the moment Rebecca stood on the top of the pyramid, he gradually began to read her emotions, the emotions lingering between her eyebrows and eyes, like bones under X-ray, under his observation There is nothing to hide.In contrast, many of her secrets are much more obscure.

"After dinner, see you at the door of my room."

"it is good"

At night, a nearly round moon is hidden behind the clouds and mountains, emitting a silvery white brilliance indistinctly.

Wang sat in front of the desk, a thin stick of incense was burning on the table, and the cigarette smoke curled up.

The Beyoncé song that Stephen said was playing in the earphones. I have to say that this woman's voice is really beautiful.From time to time, I take out a Phoenix Cake from the box placed obliquely in front of the book, and bite it down. The delicate egg yolk and the sweetness of pineapple are intertwined, which is unparalleled in taste.

Suddenly, behind him, sparks flickered, and a small space passage appeared out of thin air. A pair of white hands stretched out from inside, and took a book from the bookshelf neatly.

Wang was keenly aware of the magic fluctuations in the air, and turned around to check.In the dim light, there was nothing between the two rows of bookshelves.Wang turned back and continued reading.

On the opposite side of the disappearance of the previous passage, another space gate appeared out of thin air.

Wang turned around again and found nothing.

Just when he suspected that it was his own illusion, he turned to face the table and continued to read books, eat cakes and listen to music, his eyes blurred, and when he took a closer look, the table in front of him was empty, the books and Phoenix Cakes were gone.Startled, he slapped the table and stood up from his chair.

In Stephen's room, Li Qiu took out a Phoenix Cake from the box, couldn't help biting it down, enjoying the delicious taste of the delicate egg yolk being ground on the tip of his tongue.

Stephen put away the hanging ring, seeing her intoxicated expression, infected by her emotions, with a faint smile on his lips, he also took a cube-shaped cake from the box.

"Fun Pan Crisp?" He imitated her pronunciation and asked.

"Cough——" Li Qiu heard it suddenly, startled, and almost choked, "Yes, yes, it's delicious. I bought it from Taipei in the morning. It's too late to drink tea, or make a pot of Longjing , eating dessert, it's amazing."

The author has something to say: Hey, you actually said that there is no substantial progress QAQ

I can't control the emotional scenes, I feel that Strange is a bit overwhelmed

The first few chapters are from the perspective of the heroine, and the recent chapters are slowly changing, I hope it will not be too abrupt.

I rejected the Phoenix Cake that appeared in this chapter at first, but it turned out that my classmate’s mother made it by hand. ! !

As an aside, the title of Shenxia Tongren feels too serious, and I want to change it to "A Pig-killing Knife", do you have any suggestions?
