Although Li Xiaoxin tried his best to comfort Xiao Xuanzi, and Li Jinglong coaxed Xiao Xuanzi to be happy from time to time, Xiao Xuanzi's mood was a little low in the days after the explosion.

Lin Shu was still the same as always, training his younger siblings while studying some messy things in his laboratory, at least in the eyes of Xiao Xuanzi and Li Xiaoxin.

"Look here, Xiao Yong, don't be distracted all the time!"

"Oh!"

"This is the part that absorbs energy, pay attention, when the magic array is activated, pay attention to the flow of the magic core and magic crystal energy, what do you see?"

"Brother, the energy is rotating!" The answer was not Lin Xiaoyong, but Lin Xiaomei, Lin Shu looked at Lin Xiaomei in surprise, this was the first time Lin Shu had taken a basic class on magic energy with his brother and sister, and the props demonstrated were the magic arrays made by Lin Shu.

It's just that how Lin Xiaomei sensed the flow of demonic energy, and how she could sense the form in which demonic energy operated, was really a bit incredible! Could it be that Lin Xiaomei was born with a strong primordial spirit? This is not absolutely impossible, maybe her origin is as mysterious as Lin Shu, or like Ao Yun.

Lin Shu looked at Lin Xiaomei in surprise, carefully experiencing her soul power, but did not find any special situation, perhaps, Lin Xiaomei belongs to the kind of situation where the innate soul power is relatively condensed, but the strength is not very strong, which is what the saying often says about people with spiritual roots.

Lin Shu couldn't help but shake his head, why did he always run into some strange people? Speaking of which, the most normal should be Lin Xiaoyong.

"Did the little sister see it, or did she feel it?"

"When I saw it, I could only vaguely feel it, but now I can see some spiral-like twists. ”

"Is there a color?"

"If you don't have it, it's distorted!"

Lin Shu stretched out his hand and patted his little sister's head and said with a smile: "Little sister is awesome, okay, let's start tonight." You can practice our family alchemy mysticism. ”

"Oh, great, great! great!" Lin Xiaomei jumped up and jumped a few times, and then threw herself on Lin Shu's body and twisted around coquettishly, venting the joy in her heart, only the second brother could practice alchemy for a long time, which made Lin Xiaomei jealous, and now that she can finally start practicing, how can she not be happy.

Lin Shu twisted his face. Seeing Lin Xiaoyong's eyes staring at the shelf again, he couldn't help but look at the shelf curiously, it turned out that in the corner of the shelf, there were several flat beetles crawling, and these beetles were not small, and the color was slightly darker than what they usually saw, and the carapace exuded a blue-purple light.

Lin Shu smiled, after all, he was a child. They all love these little animals, but when did they have these guests in their lab? Is it because of the rain?

Lin Shu was about to greet Lin Xiaoyong, when his heart suddenly moved, and his eyes couldn't help but look at these beetles again. Then he patted the little sister in his arms, turned his head to Xiao Yong and said, "Xiao Yong, go and turn off the lights." ”

Lin Xiaoyong glanced at Lin Shu in surprise, but still stood up and walked towards the switch. Lin Shu walked to the window and pulled the window curtain shut with a bang.

"Hehe, sure enough!" the beetles were in the dark. There was still a faint light, these were not ordinary lights, but the light of magic energy fluctuations, although it was extremely dim, but in front of the primordial spirit of the forest tree, there was still nothing to hide.

Lin Xiaomei has been held by Lin Shu, and when she heard her brother muttering in the dark, she couldn't help but raise her little face to look, but it was so dark that she couldn't see anything, she looked around the room curiously, trying to see what her brother cared about, but unfortunately there was nothing.

"Open it!"

"Oh!"

With a snap, the interior was bright again, and the trees also pulled open the baffle of the window, revealing the scenery of the mountain village outside with a slanting wind and drizzle.

"Alright, let's move on!"

Lin Shu glanced at the beetles, and continued to teach the two children, never mentioning the strange things he had just discovered, nor touching those strange beetles, not even looking at them, completely ignoring them.

It wasn't until after eating at noon that Lin Shu gave Li Jinglong a look, and Li Jinglong cooperated and called Lin Shu to his office.

"What's the matter, is there anything new?" asked Li Jinglong with some curiosity.

Lin Shu took a closer look at Li Jinglong's office, especially those corners and corners, and paid attention to see if there were any small animals that were not quite right, but there didn't seem to be anything special.

"I have some questions I want to ask the teacher, can I invite Leng Feng in?"

Li Jinglong looked at Lin Shu strangely, Lin Shu smiled helplessly, Li Jinglong raised his hand and tapped it on an inconspicuous position on the desktop, the short magic energy halo on the tip of his finger flashed, and the office door was immediately opened by Leng Feng.

"Something. ”

"Well, come in and say!"

Seeing Leng Feng close the door of the office, Li Jinglong looked at Lin Shu and said, "Say, what is the matter?"

Leng Feng knew that Li Jinglong attached great importance to Lin Shu, so he was also very concerned about Lin Shu, but he didn't find anything special except that Lin Shu was very smart.

"That's right, Mr. Leng, can you check if there are any living beings other than us in this room, but it's best not to let people outside the room find out that we are doing this examination. ”

"Okay, and then add a protective barrier, okay?"

"That's great!"

Leng Feng immediately chanted a spell, a small cyan blue circle of light formed on his fingers, and then slowly spread throughout the room, not a single corner was spared, Lin Shu looked at such a slow spell in surprise, you must know that the fast casting of the Lu Dao is a world-level problem, the slow casting method is more difficult than the fast casting, and the difficulty of controlling it so finely can be imagined.

However, Leng Feng's speed was still very fast, and after about a few seconds, Leng Feng completed the entire spell casting process, and then quickly recited a short spell, laying a powerful enchantment for the entire room, and this wind enchantment can basically isolate sound and magic energy penetration.

After getting all this done, Leng Feng looked at Lin Shu and said, "Okay, I haven't found any other life forms. ”

Lin Shu nodded with satisfaction, then walked to the window and closed the baffle, looked at Li Jinglong and said, "Teacher, what I want to ask is is there an insect that resembles a flat beetle, but it is a creature that belongs to a demonic beast? ”

Li Jinglong looked at Lin Shu strangely, and then frowned and thought, Leng Feng also paid attention to Li Jinglong, he had already heard some taste from Lin Shu's words, obviously, Lin Shushi found the existence of that kind of beetle in this building, and was very suspicious of the origin of that kind of beetle, so he came to ask Li Jinglong so carefully.

If there is really a problem with these beetles, then the person who dares to reach out to Li Jinglong is definitely not a simple guy, so Leng Feng is also very concerned about this.

Li Jinglong thought for a while, and seemed to have found some relevant information from his memory for a long time, his face was full of reminiscence, and he said slowly: "The animal you said reminds me of an experience of visiting ancient monuments a long time ago, it was more than forty years ago, and I also followed my teacher and received a request from the Demon Research Society, and we went to a newly discovered ancient site together to participate in an expedition. ”

Lin Shu saw that the teacher seemed to be going to talk at length, so he consciously found a stool to sit down, and motioned to Leng Feng to listen patiently and slowly.

"It was a monument with tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of years of history, it should be a religious site, or a witchcraft altar, where we found a lot of very old plant specimens, as well as suspected potion formulas, that time, we made a great discovery of the plant application in the ancient witchcraft of the Eastern Continent, and found some new configuration ideas for potions, so the teacher was very happy at that time, and I also have a deep memory. ”

"Teacher, there's no content about beetles. Lin Shu reminded.

Li Jinglong smiled, seemed to return to reality from his memories, squinted his eyes and said, "The beetle is about to appear, hehe." The thing you mentioned resembling a beetle existed in large numbers in that ruin, and of course it was not alive or a corpse, but was carved into various places in the ruins, and seemed to be a kind of worship of this religion. At first, I thought it was just an ordinary flat beetle, but then a colleague who studied animals told me that this so-called flat beetle should be called the dark scarab, and it was precisely because of this beetle that the ruins were filled with the ruins that archaeologists were able to quickly determine that this ruins were the religious altar of ancient black witchcraft. And this darker color of the so-called dark scarab is a kind of magical beast, not advanced, but it is a very good spirit medium. ”

"Is it a medium for casting soul spells?"

"Yes, this is the current saying, in ancient times, it should be called a medium for witchcraft!"

Lin Shu suddenly felt that his office seemed to have been invaded by someone from the soul department, and he may also be proficient in ancient witchcraft, and Lin Shu had a headache when he thought of the mystery of witchcraft.

"Are there any groups that study witchcraft?"

"Of course there is, but there are not many, and they are all quite low-key, and the researchers among them are generally soul mages, and it is said that the arcanist surnamed Lin is also proficient in ancient witchcraft. ”

Li Jinglong said with a smile, and then asked curiously: "You asked about this matter so solemnly, shouldn't you have found a dark scarab in this building?"

Lin Shu grinned: "The teacher is the teacher, and he came to ask because he saw it! Also, how to deal with these dark scarabs?"

Li Jinglong sighed and looked up at Leng Feng, who nodded knowingly: "Leave it to me, where did you find it?"

"My laboratory, it seems that Xuanzi's laboratory also has it, and I haven't paid attention to other places. ”

"I understand, take this opportunity to catch the people behind it first. ”

"Take care of it yourself, safety comes first. Li Jinglong said helplessly: "It seems that we are going to urge the Demon Research Association, if it doesn't work, we will go back to the capital." ”

Leng Feng thought for a moment and said, "It's okay!" (To be continued.) )
