I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 297: The long-lost materialist warrior? Just a scumbag who eats human blood buns

science?

As soon as Su Fan uttered this word, a burst of laughter came from the audience below.

Even Jack, the host, and Christo next to him started laughing.

"Well, I originally thought that you, Mr. Su Fan, were an exorcist who was not good at speaking, but I didn't expect that you had such a sense of humor."

Talking about science on a late-night show that explores paranormal phenomena is so contrasting that it can be considered a cold joke.

"This is not a joke, I'm telling the truth."

An inexplicable smile also appeared on Su Fan's face.

"Science is a body of knowledge that can be used to understand the world and put it into practice. Its definition is much broader than most people think."

"The occult fits that definition perfectly, so why can't it be called science?"

……

"This guy actually talked about what science is seriously?"

In Gallagher's house, several people were speechless.

"Karl, are you really going to listen?"

"People change after working. There's nothing strange about that, Ian."

"But this guy does have some demeanor. I almost thought I was watching a special interview video with one of those old professors in the university."

Lip's brows knitted together.

"Damn it, I suddenly remembered that I haven't finished my paper yet and the deadline is coming soon."

"Why don't you take action then?"

Ian inquired.

"I need to use a computer, but I don't have one."

Lip scratched his hair roughly, looking even more irritated than before. He got up from the sofa and walked outside.

"where are you going?"

"You guys continue watching the show. I'm going to go out and smoke a cigarette and get some fresh air."

"Wait, I'm going too."

Ian put down the pillow and followed him out of the room.

Among the remaining people, only Carl and the woman beside him were left.

The latter looked at his younger brother with some curiosity.

She didn't understand what attracted him to sit motionless in front of the TV and watch this somewhat weird talk show.

As for Karl himself, he was sitting in front of the TV, listening attentively to the speeches of Su Fan and the host.

……

"So, Mr. Su Fan, you mean that the mysterious and mysterious occult can also be considered science."

Jack understood the meaning of Su Fan's words and briefly summarized what Su Fan had said before.

"Yes."

Su Fan nodded.

"Since it's science, I also want to hear how Mr. Su Fan explains the principles behind it."

"To put it simply, it's face reading."

Su Fan spoke casually.

"This is ancient wisdom from Eastern countries. After hundreds and thousands of years of evolution, it has formed a fairly complete knowledge system."

“However, it places very high demands on learners.”

"In other words, ordinary people cannot understand it, and must meet certain special conditions to learn it?"

Christo suddenly realized.

"Then could you please use the audience member just now as an example to explain how you can use the scientific theory of 'physiognomy' to know what will happen in the future?"

Jack continued to ask.

"It's very simple. The ancient people of the Eastern country believed that a person's fortune and destiny would be reflected in his face. This includes his children, spouse, career, life span, and even the situation of the elders in the family."

"The woman's face just now showed ominous changes in her parents' palace. Combined with other information, it can be determined that her mother will not live long."

Su Fan could naturally provide an explanation for the migration out of the deep.

But there is no need to do so for a group of foreigners who are strangers to you.

"You predicted what was going to happen through some information, instead of using your own extraordinary powers to create that future, right?"

Jack seemed relieved, but then he had a new problem.

"Then why does she blame you for all this?"

"Foolish people will confuse cause and effect and blame their own misfortunes on others. The prophet kindly reminds them, but in their eyes, it is the other party who brought disaster upon themselves."

"In fact, her mother had already been seriously ill, but she did not stay by her side to take care of her. She even left this task to her father and participated in the show herself."

"That was just an excuse she made up to vent her anger on me."

“People’s criticism is a affliction that a prophet must endure.”

"Forget about the prophet."

Su Fan was not being modest, he just disliked such a title.

The risk of being a prophet for Westerners is too great. It often involves witch trials and barbecue meals.

Isn’t the so-called Son of God whose birthday they celebrated a while ago an example?

He clearly performed miracles, but was crucified by the Jews.

"But I have to state in advance that I am not a prophet. I just rely on knowledge to see the future that others cannot see."

Su Fan paused and added some explanation.

“It’s like economists predicting the direction of the stock market.”

"I see."

Jack and others suddenly realized that this statement was easier to accept than the mysterious statements of the prophets.

"Now that both of you have given your own explanations and set examples, do you have the confidence to accept other people's questions?"

Gus asked.

"no problem."

Su Fan gave an answer immediately, but on the other side, Christo's performance was a bit strange.

He seemed very anxious and restless, constantly looking around and covering his head, with cold sweat oozing from his forehead.

"Mr. Christo, what's wrong with you?"

"I, I feel like there seems to be a very powerful force here, and it makes me very uncomfortable."

Jack didn't think much about Christo's action. He just thought it was just a scene added by the other party for the effect of the show.

However, the next second the lights in the venue suddenly began to flicker, and several light bulbs above shattered, making a clear explosion sound.

The sudden incident really shocked the audience below.

But after only a moment of silence, even more heated discussions were heard.

"The lights were flashing, and it almost scared me."

"Could it be that some evil supernatural force has really come here?"

"How could that be? Even if there is a psychic invited by the program team, they should be able to easily deal with it. Don't forget, we are the invited audience. They should at least guarantee our personal safety."

Compared with the amateur audience, the hosts arranged by the program team looked confused.

They gathered in groups of three or four, whispering in the corner.

They had previously learned through the communication channel in the headphones that the farce between the Asian guest and the fat woman was also part of the program plan.

With the lessons learned from the previous incident, these agents subconsciously regarded this as a secret process that was carried out without their knowledge.

I immediately felt that the master is truly worthy of being a master, and his acting is so realistic that he can even compete for the Oscar for Best Actor.

The program crew was willing to spend a lot of money and even blew up a few of the light bulbs on top for a realistic program effect.

With such a powerful combination, why worry about the ratings not reaching the top?
……

Su Fan knew better than anyone else present whether Kristo was performing or not.

This guy's fragile spirit, which was always showing, had already sensed a different aura. Now, he had begun to roll his eyes, and his body was on the verge of collapse.

【coming. 】

There was a slight change in Su Fan's eyes.

The situation mentioned in Alice's prophecy is about to begin.

The first person to suffer was the psychic beside him.

Su Fan naturally would not let Christo die here, and seeing that he was about to collapse, he shook out a heart-clearing talisman from his sleeve and it fell into his hand. While asking, he patted the other party on the back.

"Are you OK?"

The moment the Qingxin Talisman touched Christu's back, it shattered and turned into fine powder.

With the help of the talisman, the former immediately felt much better. After taking two breaths, he thanked Su Fan.

"Thank you for your concern. I am much better now."

"That powerful force must have left."

Christo looked a little scared.

"In my long career as a psychic, this is the first time I've encountered such a vicious spirit. The other party is definitely not an ordinary character.

If something really happens later, we will leave here together."

"Together?"

"Of course. You and I are both mediums. If we go together, we can take care of each other."

There was a hint of guilt in Christu's words, but he was still very firm.

Although he really wanted to save people, his current situation was that he could not save himself.

You know your own abilities best.

Christo knew very well that he was just a lousy psychic who had nothing to do with talking to ghosts and was totally incapable of performing exorcisms.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t be left out by the circle.

But at this time, I definitely cannot tell the young man next to me the truth.

You have to trick the other party into acting with you first.

"I am a little famous in the circle, come with me.

When you get out there and encounter problems that you can't solve in your circle, such as offending someone, I can help you solve them. A handwritten letter will do."

When Su Fan heard this, his face looked a little strange.

Handwritten letter?
People won't even look at it...

There is a reason why this guy is so successful in the secular world.

But when it comes to bragging skills, he is truly unique.

"You can go on your own if you want to."

Su Fan shook his head slightly.

Seeing this, Christo was anxious, but on the surface he still looked calm.

"Why? Do you think the conditions I offer are not attractive enough?"

"No reason."

Su Fan was too lazy to say more.

Christo wanted to continue persuading them when he heard the orchestra not far away starting to play the welcome song again.

"Let us welcome the famous magician, Mr. Carmichael Haig!"

When he heard this name, Christu even forgot what he wanted to say to Su Fan before, and thought to himself that it was terrible.

"Feeling bad again?"

Su Fan's question came to my ears.

Christo glanced at the young man who seemed to understand nothing, and then began to explain in a low voice.

“In addition to being a famous magician, Carmichael Haig is also a professional counterfeiter.

I don't know what this guy has been thinking about recently. He gave up his job as a top magician and insisted on exposing the tricks of the psychic.

So far, many people in the circle have been harassed by him."

"Oh? Who did he harass?"

Su Fan asked casually.

"There are many. The most famous one is the Warrens, who recently published a new book and are gaining popularity again."

"He once invited him to a haunted house to perform a spiritual ceremony, but Ed refused."

"For this reason, he concluded that the Warrens were frauds and swindlers, and he made a big fuss about it in the media, which led to his gaining considerable fame."

Christo spoke very quickly, and within a limited time, he described the style of this magician named Carmichael Hague.

As Su Fan listened, he looked at Carmichael Haig.

He was wearing a light blue suit, had a beard and a Mediterranean hairstyle.

The magician's words and actions were full of confidence, and there was a hint of contempt and hostility in his eyes when he looked at Su Fan and Christu.

Su Fan understood what was happening.

He didn't know which horror movie he was involved in, but what was certain was that this guy was the conventional "materialist warrior" character.

Compared to Dyson at the beginning, this man named Carmichael Haig looked down on people and things related to weirdness from the bottom of his heart.

Rowling's profiling abilities can cause great damage to her own psyche.

After the previous conversation, Su Fan could also see Ed's hidden concerns about his wife's use of her abilities.

Some anti-counterfeiting expert suddenly pops up and wants to force people to harm their health and spirit to prove themselves with just a few words.

If you refuse to do what the other party asks you to do, you are a despicable liar.

This is a complete self-proving trap.

He started out by playing this game. I can only say that this guy knows how to take advantage of public opinion to profit from others' misfortune.

While Su Fan and Christo were talking, Haig had already sat down beside them.

Of course, he also did not forget to bring his own little magic tricks to liven up the atmosphere.

I don't know when a cigar appeared in his empty hands.

The old man waved the cigar in front of Jack and Christo, then with a flick of his hands, the cigar disappeared from everyone's sight.

Then he leaned in front of Su Fan, as if showing off, and waved in front of Su Fan, and the cigar appeared in his hand again.

Such an exquisite magic trick aroused applause from everyone present.

"Oh, it seems Mr. Haig is still as good as ever."

Jack opened his mouth to flatter.

"As we all know, you have shifted your focus to the study of paranormal phenomena in recent years. And you have been verifying them all over the world."

Many photos were displayed on the large screen behind him.

These are the places Haig visited and the relevant information.

"Looks pretty photogenic, doesn't it?"

As a talk show host, Jack can't avoid making jokes.

But Haig didn't care at all.

"Haig, do we who believe in supernatural powers seem very unreasonable to you?"

Suddenly, Jack asked a rather pointed question.

"No, no, no, you have to believe me, Jack. I personally would love to see that all true.

For example, turning ordinary water into holy water, or talking to the dead.

This will make our world more wonderful and more fun to explore.”

Haig's answer was very gentle, but the next second he suddenly changed the subject.

"But I don't want to see some people using these to defraud money and property. Until I get solid evidence, I will continue to expose these scammers."

When talking about liars, Haig's eyes fell directly on Su Fan and Christu's faces.

The meaning is self-evident.
