Xu Le usually calls Gan Mr. Gan. Although it is a respectful title, there is still some distance between them.
The title of teacher is undoubtedly much more intimate.
Gan is on the same level as Xu Le, although he has more knowledge and secret techniques than Xu Le, and has a lot more experience.
But after all, they were on the same level, and when Gan heard Xu Le calling him teacher, his expression became more or less gentle, and he laughed:
"Hahaha, I can't be your teacher. It's enough that you have this intention."
“It should be.”
What about weak foundation and biting off more than you can chew? It's all nonsense.
It is a hard truth that having many skills is better than having too much.
Gan nodded, then he began to stop smiling.
He took a few rare deep breaths and adjusted himself to a relatively calm state.
"Xu Le, I know you will be very excited when you hear that you can learn new secrets.
But I hope that from now on, you can stay as calm as possible.
The technique of the Spirit Scarecrow has a lot to do with each person's mental energy."
"Is that so? I see."
It’s hard to say about his other abilities, but when it comes to adjusting his mood, Xu Le feels that he can brag, not too modestly, that he is probably in the top three in the world.
Entering the ethereal state, all emotions are instantly extracted by the Soul Tree.
Xu Le's eyes shone with a hint of blue, but it quickly disappeared.
At this point, his mental energy had completely returned to zero, and there was no longer any emotional fluctuation.
Gan looked at Xu Le. Even though he had been immersed in the study of mental energy for many years, he couldn't help but marvel at Xu Le's ability to adjust quickly.
“It’s an amazing ability to adjust yourself.
Xu Le, if you can maintain this stability even in the face of weirdness.
Your future will be immeasurable."
Xu Le didn't hear what was hidden in this sentence. He looked forward to it:
"Let's get started, Mr. Gan."
“Well, the Spirit Scarecrow technique is somewhat different from psychic summoning.
Although both rely on external forces to help oneself, psychic summoning is the power of summoning Shikigami.
The spiritual scarecrow relies on the warlock's own power.
Simply put, it is to send spirits."
"Spiritual delivery?"
“That’s right, the meaning of soul-hosting is to entrust one’s own spiritual energy to other things.
The original intention of the Spirit Scarecrow is to use spirits to control the special scarecrow made by the warlock. "
"Why did you choose the scarecrow?"
"Because it is relatively simple and can meet the needs of warlocks."
"Simple?"
"Xu Le, are there rice fields in your hometown?"
"Uh, yes."
“If there are rice fields, you should know that most of them will be filled with scarecrows.
That can serve as a deterrent, but it is also very crude and simple.
The scarecrow of the spirit has the same meaning. "
"Is that so..."
Xu Le tried to understand, and then he saw Gan cut his finger.
"Spell-formation, psychic summoning formation, scarecrow."
A puff of white smoke appeared, and a simple scarecrow wearing blue rags appeared in front of Xu Le.
“Is this the spiritual scarecrow?”
"Of course not, this is just an ordinary scarecrow that I kept in the spiritual space.
In order to make it a spiritual scarecrow, the spirit must be hosted.
Xu Le, you watch carefully."
"Yeah, I'm watching."
"Secret method: Walker-Spirit-Relay."
A wave of spiritual energy appeared on Gan's body.
With the help of Gu Yin's multi-vision, Xu Le clearly saw that Gan's spiritual energy was red.
He was also very aware that his psychic energy was blue.
So he kept quiet and pretended not to know.
However, Xu Le had a clear perception of Gan's spiritual energy fluctuations, which were strong but not powerful enough.
At least not as powerful as him.
The curse mark with spiritual light gradually fell on the scarecrow, and the eyes on the scarecrow's face, which were casually made of two buttons, emitted a red light.
A sense of danger emerged in Xu Le's heart, making him subconsciously take a step back.
"Do you feel it?"
"Well, it feels dangerous."
“It is indeed very dangerous. The stability of the Spirit Scarecrow depends on the stability of the Warlock himself.
If the warlock himself cannot maintain sufficient mental energy stability, then your spiritual scarecrow will go crazy or even become deformed.
Therefore, when controlling the Spirit Scarecrow, you must keep your mental energy stable, do you understand?"
"Understood."
Xu Le looked at the shriveled and crude straw man from afar. Apart from the psychic fluctuations just now, it had not changed at all compared to when it was first summoned.
It was really hard for him to imagine that something so fragile looking could help him fight.
“Do you feel that this thing is fragile?”
"Yes, I do."
Xu Le answered honestly, and Gan nodded with some reminiscence in his eyes.
"Yes, it looks so weak, just an ordinary straw man, how could it possibly help people fight
That’s what I thought when I first saw it.”
Then Gan hooked his finger and the straw man started moving.
Its straw joints and fingers gripped the iron office chair.
Squeak!
A teeth-grinding sound came from the iron chair. The round iron handle had been flattened by the straw man.
Then, a rusty iron sword fell from the straw man's sleeve.
clang!
With a flash of sword light, the iron chair was cut in half and retired with honor.
"Awesome!" Xu Le was a little surprised.
The frail straw man in front of him seemed to have the strength of a warrior.
"Don't be too surprised, because this is the power of the warlock."
Gan seldom showed such a proud look, but when Xu Le saw him like this, he thought of his previous divination for him, the Black Card - Marionette.
"Did I calculate it wrong?" Xu Le was a little curious.
…
In Xu Le's dormitory, Wang Man, who had fought with Ding Ke again, was sitting at the desk.
Although she couldn't beat Ding Ke, she had found a way to deal with him.
After all, it was just a cat, and a small sausage from the shop downstairs could solve the problem.
But at this moment, Wang Man looked at the piece of paper he had just picked up under the bed, and his expression gradually became strange.
About my master bringing back a wild woman...
I take a bath with my master...
"Did Brother Xu Le write these?"
Wang Man hesitated for a moment. Although it was impolite to look through other people's notebooks, curiosity drove her to look through Xu Le's notes.
She mainly wanted to see Xu Le's handwriting.
"The handwriting is different! This is not what Xu Le wrote.
My master? Bathing together? Wild woman? "
Wang Man's eyes gradually became unfriendly, but in his heart he was filled with more horror and disbelief.
Is it possible? A cat... can write
But who else but this cat would write about my master in Xu Le's house
Wild woman? Take a bath together
"You horny cat!" Wang Man looked at Ding Ke angrily.
Meow? Ding Ke was still a little confused.
But it soon discovered that the piece of paper Wang Man was holding was written by himself.
Meow meow meow! ~
Ding Ke was very fierce, but his eyes softened immediately.
Because Wang Man threw another sausage to it.
"I still have a lot more!"
Wang Man took out 5-6 sausages from his pocket and threw them to Ding Ke.
Ding Ke looked at the paper in Wang Man's hand, then looked at the sausage, and finally gave in.
The cat can't be hungry. Xu Le is so poor, and it has been eating the cafeteria's leftovers for a long time.
Eat it once, just this once.
Meow!
After sending Ding Ke away, Wang Man looked at the paper again.
Mysticism-Forbidden Summoning
Secret Technique - Scarecrow of Life
Taking in all the secret techniques above, Wang Man swallowed his saliva.
When she looked at Ding Ke again, her expression had become unpredictable.
"There's something wrong with Brother Xu Le's cat. It's a big problem. I have to tell Brother Xu Le!"
Ding Ke seemed to sense what Wang Man was thinking. She suddenly put down the sausage, looked up at Wang Man, and her sharp eyes gradually showed a red moonlight.
Then it stretched out its cat claws.
If you can describe a cat's expression, then Ding Ke's expression now is like saying:
"Don't talk nonsense, or I'll kill you."
Wang Man felt a tingling sensation on her spine as she looked into Ding Ke's eyes. She lowered her head, not daring to look Ding Ke in the eye again.
"Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."
Seeing Wang Man give in, Ding Kanke turned his attention back to the sausages.
Wang Man sat on the toilet, took out the note, read it again and again, and finally made a decision.
"I must tell Brother Xu Le about this and tell him about the black cat Ding Ke."
After coming out of the bathroom, Wang Man didn't dare to look at Ding Ke again, but she quietly put the note away, preparing to complain to Xu Le after he came back.
…
Night Watch Division.
After finishing most of the day's study, Xu Le took a short rest after Gan left.
It was not until 5:58 p.m. that the alarm clock on Gan's desk rang. Xu Le instantly stood up and pressed the alarm clock, and then he woke up slowly.
He straightened his clothes, wiped off his saliva, and rubbed his face which was covered with sleep marks.
Xu Le opened the door and stretched.
"Hey, it's another hard day at work! Hey, is it time to get off work
I was really too serious. Once I got busy, I even forgot about time."
Wang Shu, who was passing by, looked at Xu Le expressionlessly and suddenly said:
"You snore quite loudly."
"Fuck!" Xu Le covered his face.
Before he could even think of explaining, Bai Jing had already walked out of the office.
“It’s okay to sleep, you won’t be busy these few days, you can relax for a while.
However, this weekend, there will be the routine development mission twice a month.
Xu Le, get ready. You will go too this time."
"I am!"
After a slight surprise, Xu Le suddenly stood up straight. At this moment, he looked a bit like a night watchman.
Bai Jing was not surprised that she did not refuse the task.
Xu Le knew very well the reason why Bai Jing made an exception and recruited him to join the Night Watch, and Bai Jing knew that Xu Le could understand what he meant.
He opened up knowledge unconditionally, taught Gan attentively, and helped him deal with the tailwinds left over from his outings, arranging for the mother and daughter.
The secret techniques and resources have been given, so you can’t just raise a mascot.
Although it is a bit early, actual combat is the best way to improve.
"Okay, let's all go home."
