Chapter 189 The Witch's Gift - Grandmother's Book
Chapter 189 The Witch's Gift - Grandmother's Book
Jiang Chaosheng played with the flintlock pistol for a while longer.
My mental energy was somewhat depleted, and I even felt a little sleepy.
It seems that expending mental energy comes at a price.
That's alright.
I am still just a mortal body now. Once I open my spiritual aperture and have abundant spiritual power, the Xinghuo flintlock gun will definitely be a powerful weapon!
The thought of the words "mortal body" made Jiang Chaosheng's eyes flicker with doubt.
After the Black God used the Shadow of the Covenant, the entire South China Sea lost its light.
Logically speaking, although he is immortal under the protection of Antique Shop Zero, he is still a mortal being.
Without using forbidden items such as the "Eye of Hela" or the "Eye of Medusa," I shouldn't be able to see in complete darkness.
"Could this also be related to the last emperor?"
Jiang Chaosheng couldn't understand it.
At that moment, he sensed that someone from the Zero Antique Shop had arrived.
It's Jin Meiting.
Jiang Chaosheng had already prepared a reward for Jin Meiting.
I set those rules myself.
Any member of the Forbidden Society who contains a forbidden object will receive a forbidden object as a reward.
Jin Meiting said she didn't need it, that she had already gotten what she wanted.
Jiang Chaosheng wasn't stupid; he naturally knew what Jin Meiting had gained.
Self-approval.
In fact, Jiang Chaosheng felt ashamed about this matter.
He didn't think his approval was anything special.
Of course, you can't withhold candy from a child just because they don't cry.
Even forbidden items that should be rewarded should still be rewarded.
The forbidden item he had prepared was just right for Jin Meiting to use.
......
Lobby of Zero Antique Shop.
Jin Meiting sat at the tea table, and Xie Ya used his claws to hold the teapot and pour her a cup of tea.
"Thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, I would have been trapped inside the Seven Ninja Swordsmen forever."
Jin Meiting touched the warm teacup:
"There's no need for us to talk about these things."
The evil crow smiled:
"You seem to be in a good mood; it looks like you got what you wanted."
Jin Meiting smiled sweetly:
"Yes, it's all thanks to you for teaching me."
The crow gripped the teapot and poured itself a cup of tea.
"Maybe next time we meet, I can teach you how to trick Jiang Chaosheng into bed."
Jin Meiting paused, her hand gripping the teacup still, and stared at Xie Ya in astonishment:
"Where are you going next time we meet?"
The evil crow gazed at the steaming tea in front of it and said softly:
"To do some things... things that I never had a chance to do before."
Before the Emperor's pardon, it saw its past.
It turned out that he was a minor official who was to die for the last emperor.
I never imagined I was so cowardly that I would be scared to death by the sound of clashing weapons before even reaching the battlefield.
The ghost lingered on the battlefield, unwilling to accept its fate.
Upon arriving in the underworld, the last human emperor granted himself a second life, making him the "Evil Ancestor".
No wonder I like to daydream in the locust tree on the sunny slope.
Confused and clueless.
It turns out, she was waiting for him to find her.
The human emperor has passed away, the underworld is gone, and the outside world has been turned upside down.
He kept his promise and found himself.
A warm feeling appeared in Xie Ya's eyes. He shook his head and smiled.
"What merit do I have to deserve such favor from you, sir?"
Therefore, no matter what scheme he has devised, no matter what he intends to do, I will repay him with my life.
Jin Meiting didn't understand, but she could tell that Xie Ya wanted to do something for his master, so she asked:
"What do you need to do? Is it convenient to tell me? I can help you."
Now, my witch will be very powerful, and will have followers all over the world.
Evil Crow said:
"No one can help me with what I've done."
At that moment, steady footsteps approached, followed by a deep, resonant voice:
"So, where are you going?"
Jin Meiting quickly stood up and bowed slightly, saying:
"Owner."
Xie Ya did not bow, but looked at Jiang Chaosheng:
"Find my refuge."
Only by reclaiming the vessel can he become the evil ancestor who rebuked all ghosts on Luoyang Slope.
Without a place to live, he was nothing, at most a somewhat mystical crow.
Jiang Chaosheng walked into the counter and sat down:
"You said you lost your body."
The evil crow remained silent for a moment:
"It wasn't lost, I hid it."
Jiang Chaosheng raised an eyebrow and looked at it.
The crow gave an awkward laugh:
"I'm afraid the managers will force me to fight."
So, the same excuse used by the previous managers was that they had lost their shelter and couldn't fight back.
I'm afraid of fighting, afraid of dying.
When Xie Ya finished speaking, he paused slightly before saying, "Afraid of fighting, afraid of dying."
It suddenly gave a self-deprecating laugh.
It turns out that my timidity has never changed.
Xie Ya said frankly:
"Mainly because I'm timid."
Jiang Chaosheng nodded:
"That's true."
He will never forget that during the Onmyoji incident, after seeing Daji, Xieya immediately surrendered and begged for mercy.
If Daji hadn't mistaken herself for the Human Emperor, everyone would probably have perished that night.
The evil crow continued:
"Actually, it's not wrong to say that it was lost."
It's been over a thousand years, and I've completely forgotten where I hid the body container.
I'm afraid I'll have to look for it carefully.
Jiang Chaosheng glanced at Xie Ya:
"Okay, go ahead."
Xie Ya lowered his head, making a curtsy gesture, and was about to speak when he first heard Jiang Chaosheng say:
"Be careful, I don't need another thug like you."
The crow was taken aback. It slightly opened its beak, raised its head, and looked at Jiang Chaosheng.
The crow was taken aback. It slightly opened its beak, raised its head, and looked at Jiang Chaosheng.
That antique counter looks like a dragon table, and that pear wood chair looks like a dragon throne.
The figures of Jiang Chaosheng and the last emperor are overlapping.
Yeah, he doesn't need another thug like me.
But how can I not serve His Majesty?
The crow's eyes gradually reddened.
It turns out that my loyalty has never changed.
The raven's throat bobbed, and it suddenly crouched down on the tea table:
"Your Majesty... Take care, sir! I must go now!"
Xie Ya dared not tell Jiang Chaosheng: You are the last emperor!
It feared that it might disrupt His Majesty's millennia-long plan for the mortal realm.
After speaking, the raven flapped its wings and flew out of the Zero Antique Shop without looking back.
Jiang Chaosheng was stunned.
He can be quite oblivious when it comes to emotions.
Jiang Chaosheng didn't notice Xie Ya's emotions, only showing slight surprise:
"You're leaving already?"
Jiang Chaosheng shook his head:
"It's the same wherever I go, I'll find it."
The evil crow that flew to the door heard Jiang Chaosheng's words and its heart trembled violently!
Will you find me wherever I go?
One person said it twice, in different eras.
Damn, this is the most touching love confession I've ever heard in my life!
......
Jiang Chaosheng took a book out of the counter.
The book has an animal hide cover, the paper inside is yellowed, and the text is in English.
Jiang Chaosheng handed the book to Jin Meiting:
"This is for you."
Jin Meiting was stunned for a moment:
"Master, you know that I didn't go to fight the Seven Ninja Swordsmen for that reason."
There was some resistance to that antique book, which was clearly a forbidden object.
It seems that after getting this book, the feeling of working for Jiang Chaosheng changed, and it became more utilitarian.
Jiang Chaosheng said:
"Your sisters can use this book too; we can't let them work their lives away in vain."
Jin Meiting frowned:
"They did it for their faith!"
Jiang Chaosheng chuckled softly.
Faith is the least valuable thing.
Thousands of years ago, wasn't the faith of the followers of the Holy Church in the Western God destroyed by a single arrest warrant issued by the last emperor?
Jiang Chaosheng wouldn't say that outright.
Because this is just my own thought, saying it out loud would only hurt people.
Jiang Chaosheng said:
"This thing can only be used by you and your witch. It's just sitting there, a waste."
Furthermore, I set the rules, and I am a person who respects rules.
Of course, he only respects his own rules.
Jin Meiting then stepped forward and picked up the book.
She turned a page; the text in the book was in English.
She could understand these English words; she did very well in her English classes in college.
Jin Meiting's beautiful eyes slowly brightened.
This book is actually a book containing extraordinary spells!
Jiang Chaosheng's voice rang out:
"Number 3-13, Grandmother's Book, which contains the most powerful exorcism magic in the West."
Well... Exorcism is just what people call those spells.
In fact, the author of this book used these spells to subdue demons and defeat angels.
Jin Meiting stared at Jiang Chaosheng in astonishment:
"Was the author of this book human?"
Jiang Chaosheng nodded:
The author of this book is named Belvis.
Jin Meiting searched her mind for the name, which was clearly that of a Western woman, but found no clues.
Belvis, a name that sounds unfamiliar.
Jiang Chaosheng picked up his teacup:
"Belvis is a bit low-key, but you've probably heard of her grandson; he's appeared in quite a few movies and games."
Jiang Chaosheng was about to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat when he discovered that the teacup was empty.
At that moment, the tea was poured in.
Jiang Chaosheng looked up at Jin Meiting, who was even pouring tea for him with a serious expression.
She is very perceptive and knows how to take care of people.
She's more suited to be a maid than the leader of the Witches' Guild.
Jiang Chaosheng continued:
"Belvis's grandson is named Constantine."
Jin Meiting was taken aback:
"Constantine?"
She had indeed seen the movie about Constantine.
A famous Western exorcist, he was fond of smoking and drinking, and was treacherous and cunning. He spent his life protecting the human world, and all demons regarded him as a jinx.
Jiang Chaosheng continued:
"Before Constantine died, he feared that someone would learn the magic of his grandmother's book."
He believed that humanity was burdened with the seven deadly sins, and that once it became powerful, it would inevitably commit evil.
Constantine considered destroying his grandmother's book.
He also felt that this was a precious gift from his grandmother.
Of course, it was also the last thing Constantine's grandmother left behind in the world.
Constantine couldn't bear to destroy it, nor did he want it to be studied by others, so he cursed the book.
No human, angel, or demon can learn the exorcism magic from the Grandmother's Book.
Unless one is a human who possesses power from both the Western Paradise and the Avici Hell.
Jin Meiting immediately thought of the witches and herself.
The witches have their own succubus markings and possess the divine black robes of the Seven Musketeers, thus elevating their biological level and making them extraordinary beings.
This extraordinary being is called the Witch.
I am the same way.
Originally a succubus, after acquiring the divine black robe, even her appearance changed after transformation.
In this world, perhaps only I and the witches are capable of cultivating the Grandmother's Book.
"I can sense that you are no longer a succubus."
Are you now a completely new extraordinary being?
Jin Meiting snapped out of her daze and looked at Jiang Chaosheng with anticipation:
"Master, would you like to see what I look like now?"
She felt that her new, extraordinary beauty was no less than that of Su Daji!
......
P.S.: I'll be adding an extra chapter tomorrow, guys!
