Ma Yuanliang took out a few pieces of rune paper in his backpack, put them in his hand, looked at the geometric pattern on it, and thought about why it can deter ghosts.

Drawing on rune paper was learned in that organization, where it was an elective subject that few people learned.

I remember that it was half a year after joining the organization, Ma Yuanliang participated in the charm study group in order to investigate more inside stories of this organization, and after many years, I can't remember the specific time, probably in the spring.

Looking at the rune paper quietly, his mind returned to the scene at that time, when he and 5 other new members rushed to the teaching place with the instructor.

The tutor is a foreigner over 50 years old, with a Chinese face, light eyebrows, a black gown, a solemn demeanor that has never been changed, and a gentle but silent demeanor.

No one knew his name and place of origin, the students only knew to call him Mentor, and no one asked his name, knowing that they could not get an answer, and under the guidance of the Mentor, they arrived at a fishing village in the South China Sea of Huameng.

The fishing village is bordered by the sea, less than two miles from the coastline, and the sound of waves crashing against the rocks can be heard at any time as far as the eye can see.

The students were on the beach, feeling the vastness of the world, crawling on the table under the afterglow of the setting sun to copy the model pictures sent by the instructor.

Ma Yuanliang asked a student next to him, "Eh, brother, are we sketching?"

"Don't talk." A whispered and indifferent reply.

Day after day, month after month, the group copied the runes on the seashore for 3 months in succession, no communication, no daily conversation, extreme boredom, and the expressions on everyone's faces became stiff, as if they had put on a mask.

Ma Yuanliang felt that he was about to become a great painter, there was once a great man who practiced painting with eggs, thinking that his painting was not bad, round of the circle, square of the square, and finally couldn't help but ask the tutor: "Mentor, what is the use of us painting these, do you want to train us to be painters to make money for the club?"

"Keep drawing."

The instructor was expressionless and showed no emotion.

Some people say that the rule of the Heavenly Dao Cultivator Society is not to speak, but there is no such rule, but these people are used to being indifferent, and they only have a purpose in their eyes, and pulling the people around them into a deep depression seems to be a kind of spiritual plague.

The drawing lasted again for three months, and one late summer morning, the instructor stopped asking the students to copy, gathered everyone on the beach, told the last lesson, and handed out a handbook to everyone.

The instructor faced the sea, his arms stretched forward to form a 90-degree angle, and a yellow talisman paper flew in front of his chest, spinning constantly.

That's all there is to the vision, but it's shocking enough, because the rune paper literally flies out of thin air.

Everyone was trying their best to suppress their curiosity, quietly waiting for the mentor's explanation.

The instructor took back the talisman paper and said, "Your basic lesson has been completed, and when you feel the water flowing in the air one day, you can use the power of the talisman paper, and the methods of using it are all in the booklet in your hand."

The half-year-long study of mantras ended simply, with constant copying and unexplained explanations.

Ma Yuanliang returned to reality, stood upright, opened his arms, and felt the faint abnormality in the air, indeed as the teacher said, the body seemed to be surrounded by water, not very obvious, this feeling appeared on the day the human disappeared.

A shadow illusion walked out of Ma Yuanliang's body, stood a few steps away from him, and asked him, "What are you thinking, are you thinking that there is really a god in the Heavenly Dao Divine Cultivation Society?"

Ma Yuanliang lowered his arm and stared at the illusion in a daze, what it said was exactly what he was thinking.

The illusion came out of the body again, and said: ", where are there gods in this world, the effects of ghosts and rune paper are just a kind of energy body, as long as you study it, there will be scientific answers."

Ma Yuanliang nodded, this is not wrong, when he just wanted to reason about the scientific truth, there was an illusion coming out.

"Whether it's ghosts or gods, or science, this shows that the disappearance of human beings is related to the Heavenly Dao Cultivators, and it can even be said to be certain, so the question now should be what they want to do?" The illusion said solemnly.

"Where did He Qingzhu issue the order? Why didn't he send them their current coordinates? The other visions said.

"It seems that the Heavenly Dao Cultivator Society hasn't done many bad things, most of them have been told by others, at least they haven't accepted orders to harm others."

"Are you suspicious of something?"

"I'm telling the truth."

The illusions began to argue, and the facts presented did not prove anything, but only made the doubts more and more suspicious.

Ma Yuanliang shook his head violently to dispel these illusions, and his head would explode if he thought about it again.

It's more practical to solve the things in front of you first, and only by surviving can you have a chance to unlock the answer.

He went to his backpack and took out a diary, which contained the method of using the transcribed rune paper, and found one of the means of defense.

I took six pieces of rune paper and sat cross-legged in the center of the team, put my arms on my legs, and put the rune paper in my palms and stacked it together.

The power of the rune paper comes from the elements in the air, and its role is to act as a medium to channel this supernatural force.

Ma Yuanliang carefully felt the elements present in the air, and the feeling was very vague, like a breeze that came and went.

The instructions in the manual are to adjust the angle of the pattern on the rune paper and the flow of the elements in one go, of course, you can also use your body to change the movement of the elements to match the rune paper.

The problem now is that Ma Yuanliang can't see the movement of the elements clearly, and every time he feels it, it suddenly disappears, and his expectations all turn into disappointment, his mind is disturbed, and the elements he feels are becoming more and more blurred.

The elements are colorless and formless, and cannot be seen with the eyes, so close your eyes and enter the boundless darkness.

What I felt was still a chaotic flow of elements, and I suddenly remembered the scene of flying kites with my sister when I was a child, and I had an idea, and when a faint element crossed my side, I suddenly pulled my hands apart, and the rune paper mixed together was arranged in a line, spinning and floating in the air.

A wonderful feeling, the charm and the body are like nodes, pulling at the surrounding elements, and the meaning of the charm is gradually understood.

Ma Yuanliang controlled the rune paper to stand up, let go of his hands, the rune paper continued to float in the air, and the next thing to do was much simpler, gently tap the rune paper with the back of his hand, so that it flew in six directions, up and down, front and back, left and right.

The talisman paper floating in the air formed an upside-down hemispherical shield, completely enveloping the convoy inside, and a pale blue halo flashed.
