"Be careful when you speak!" Xi Lun, who has always been calm, was also hurt by this sarcasm. However, he did not have Ji Xiao's amazing resilience. Even if he wanted to teach this young man who spoke badly, he just had more energy than he wanted.

Seeing that Lucas seemed to be staring at Ji Xiao all the time, Gu Yunyi subconsciously squeezed Ji Xiao tighter.

"Lucas, where is Principal Churchill? These three are well-known figures in their respective time and space..."

Before Cohen finished speaking, Lucas turned around and left without paying any attention to hospitality: "Principal Churchill is in the library. Cohen, didn't you ask you to find the boy who saved the world? I advise you to go back to your respective homes tomorrow morning. In order not to find the dead body in the end like the waste sent before!"

After speaking, Lucas held his head high and walked up to the second floor step by step.

Although Gu Yunyi didn't like Lucas' arrogance, he felt that he was a person with a special status, so he asked Cohen, "Who is he?"

It wasn't until Lucas' figure disappeared in the corridor on the second floor that Cohen led them up the stairs, and explained to Gu Yunyi in a low voice: "Lucas is of noble blood, he was originally King Arthur's nephew, the Rose Army But after Horth came to power, Lucas couldn't understand Horth's tyrannical ruling method, and brought his own soldiers to volunteer under the command of Principal Churchill, who is currently our strongest magician."

Gu Yunyi nodded, no wonder even Cohen respected Lucas.

Today's magic school does not occupy a large area; ten years ago, the well-known Montgomery School of Magic and Magic was devastated by successive wars in recent years, leaving only a four-story castle, barely carrying out children's teaching Task.

Gu Yunyi hugged Ji Xiao and Cohen step by step up the revolving staircase. On both sides of the staircase were the principals of the magic academy. At the top of the stairs was a middle-aged woman with a simple dress and a dignified manner.

The woman in the photo is lifelike, and after seeing Gu Yunyi again, she actually showed a kind smile!

Seeing Gu Yunyi staring at her in a daze, Cohen proudly introduced: "This is the first principal of our magic academy, and also the founder of the academy, and the high priest of our world."

Gu Yunyi nodded suddenly, presumably this is what the leader of the spiritual channel said, and he fought side by side with him in the high priest.

Then, every time you turn a corner, you will see a photo frame the size of your body. The portraits in the photo frame are all moving like real people. For a moment, Gu Yunyi doubts that these people will jump out of the photo frame in the next second.

It wasn't until Churchill's photo appeared on the wall that the three arrived at the door of the library.

Pushing open the door, a 300-square-meter room with walls full of quaint books came into view. In the center of the library was a square table made of red oak, covered with a layer of Tarot cards.

As his gaze deepened, Gu Yunyi finally saw clearly that there was a person sitting behind the square table. From his appearance, it was not difficult to see that this person was Principal Churchill.

"You are finally here, the boy who saved the world." Churchill looked up, showing an extremely kind smile.

Gu Yunyi looked around in confusion, thinking that the "salvation boy" he was talking about was Ji Xiao or Xi Lun, until he met Churchill's gaze, and then said dully: "You...are talking about me ?”

"Principal Churchill, are you right?" Cohen was not shocked by Churchill's endless words: "The young master of the Gu family has no spiritual power, let alone use magic, is it a mistake?"

Churchill smiled and gave Cohen a look: "Take Siren to treat the wound first."

Although Cohen had doubts about this, he knew that Churchill was deliberately avoiding others, so he reluctantly helped Siren to leave the library.

"Principal, I think there may be some misunderstanding." Gu Yunyi held Ji Xiao in his arms, and declared to him again: "Although I am a descendant of the Gu family, I have never practiced spiritual power magic at all due to my limited physique. , just to save my apprentice Tang Xuan, I am afraid it will be difficult to take on this great task."

Without saying a word, Churchill waved to Gu Yunyi, then raised the magic wand in his hand and pointed at the three-meter-high bookshelf behind him; in the blink of an eye, the bookshelf automatically separated to the two sides, revealing a stone door.

"The high priest has never missed the divination." Churchill waved to Gu Yunyi, and Ji Er pushed open the stone door and led him in, "100 years ago, she calculated that you would appear here today a hundred years later."

Gu Yunyi frowned, and walked in together without knowing it.

Behind the stone gate is a secret chamber. The shelves inlaid on the two walls are filled with crystal balls of various materials, each of which is round in color, with a layer of colorful light on the outside.Gu Yunyi glanced roughly, each one is made of high-quality white crystal, with a silvery color.

Gu Yunyi's eyes were dazzled, and it was only when Churchill's voice sounded above his head again that he suddenly came back to his senses: "It seems that you like these very much? Take whichever you like."

Gu Yunyi quickly waved his hand to refuse.Churchill said again: "Our spiritual veins here are all occupied by the royal family, and due to the limitation of time and space, your abilities cannot be used here at all. You must use magic tools-crystal balls, tarot cards, or magic wands."

Gu Yunyi took a long breath, and finally understood why Ji Xiao's Taoism was restricted. These props are completely unique weapons in this time and space, let alone used, even seeing it up close is the first time.

Gu Yunyi began to worry faintly, whether he could successfully rescue Tang Xuan, let alone the boy who saved the world...

Churchill stared at Gu Yunyi with a faint smile, and walked towards the innermost layer of the secret room with his hands behind his back. It seemed to be an altar, and a hexagram totem glowing with strange light was embedded at the bottom of the altar.

He took out a wooden box from the middle of the altar and put it into Gu Yunyi's hands: "This is a tarot card specially left for you by the high priest. I hope it can help you save your apprentice."

Gu Yunyi took the wooden box with both hands and looked it over. It was also made of high-quality red oak, with some incomprehensible symbols and words engraved on the surface.He pushed open the box cover on the surface, and a pile of blue cards with the hexagram symbol engraved on the back lay quietly inside.

"Principal, I don't know how to use Tarot cards, and I have never learned divination." Gu Yunyi had seen Tarot cards in books and movies before, but he had never really touched them. He only thought they were played by girls. thing.He picked up the top card and turned it over, only to find that there was no pattern on the card!

Churchill explained with a smile: "Divination is just one of the uses of Tarot cards. In the real magic system, it is an important tool for performing magic rituals. It can summon the patron saint in it to fight for oneself."

"But..." Gu Yunyi doubtfully said, "This deck of cards is empty."

Churchill said with a meaningful smile: "This is the mystery of this deck. There is a saying in your China called 'Learn from nature, learn from the source of your heart'. Gu, you are a jade carver, you should be able to understand it. Mystery."

After speaking, Churchill took Gu Yunyi and left the secret room.

At this time, it was past half of the night, and Gu Yunyi was arranged in a single dormitory on the third floor. He sat in front of the desk and hugged Ji Xiao, with the blank tarot cards spread out in front of him, recalling what Churchill said to him before he left .

All of a sudden, I felt that my arms were empty, and at some point, Ji Xiao had already jumped onto the desk by grabbing his arm.

Ji Xiao stretched out his little furry hand and lightly touched the back of Gu Yunyi's hand. With his short legs, he jumped to the glazed pen holder at the corner of the table, grabbed a feather feather and wobbled to the corner of the table. Gu Yunyi's hand, waiting to look at him with big shiny eyes.

Gu Yunyi looked at the white feathers on the tip of the brush, muttered in his mouth the words "Foreign masters make good fortune, get the source of heart", suddenly his heart lighted up, he picked up the pen and began to draw on the three-inch card.

Ji Xiao lay on his side on the desk, propped his head on one hand, tilted his chubby Erlang legs, and stared at Gu Yunyi all night.

It wasn't until the first ray of light in the morning came into the study that Gu Yunyi raised his hand and stretched his waist, put down the pen in his hand, picked up the card that he had drawn all night with both hands and raised it above his head, looked at it, and raised his head in satisfaction. Mouth.

A lifelike version of Bai Suzhen in the 92nd version is vividly displayed on the paper, with Nezha and Guan Yu, whose ink is still wet, next to it.

As a jade carver, Gu Yunyi did not have any difficulty in painting. As for why he drew these three characters, it was entirely because that little boy Gu Bai was chasing these dramas at home every day.

"Let's leave Ji Xiao, let's verify whether this method works or not." Gu Yunyi hugged Ji Xiao into his arms with joy, and went downstairs with the three cards in his arms.

The two found an empty lawn, and Gu Yunyi spread the three cards on the grass, letting the sun dry the ink little by little.During this period, he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to practice "Huang Ting Meditation Meditation" according to the task assigned by his master.

At this time, a lot of apprentices from the magic academy came down one after another on the playground. After seeing Gu Yunyi in the distance, they began to gather together in twos and threes to whisper——

"Who is this man? What is he doing?"

"I heard that he is the savior boy predicted by the high priest?"

"That's right, I heard that Churchill gave him the last oracle tarot last night!"

The voice of the conversation was not low, and as soon as the voice fell, it immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding people. Their eyes were different in depth, some were delighted and curious, and more were surprised and unwilling.

The God's Domain Tarot was made by the high priest himself with magic hundreds of years ago, and there are only three sets in the world.

One of them is in the hands of Churchill. It is said that it has been passed down for several years. Only the previous principals are eligible to inherit it, and must be handed over to the next principal after he abdicates.

The second one is in the hands of Luska, who is the most powerful magician of his time and has made countless contributions to Montgomery College, which is well deserved.

The third one has been kept on the altar in the secret room. It is said that it is also the one with the strongest magic value and the most mysterious one. No one has seen it except Principal Churchill.

All of a sudden, Gu Yunyi's front, back, left, and left were surrounded by crowds. All the little magicians who were supposed to have morning classes were all attracted by this handsome "salvation boy" with black brown eyes.

Gu Yunyi had already entered the state of meditation, and did not hear the whispers around him, but Ji Xiao quickly climbed onto his shoulders, put his hands on his waist, and looked back and forth vigilantly, for fear that someone would hurt his sweetheart.

At this time, Lucas, Churchill, and several teachers from several magic schools came upon hearing the sound.

Lucas was already dissatisfied with the Special Ability Department, thinking that the people inside were a bunch of mediocre people.This morning, when I heard that Gu Yunyi was the savior boy predicted by the high priest, I was shocked and suspicious, thinking that Gu Yunyi was either a liar or a spy sent by the enemy.

"What are you all doing together? Why don't you go back to class!" He moved away from the crowd three steps at a time, seeing Gu Yunyi sitting there cross-legged with his fingerprints on his hands, pretending to be a ghost, an unknown fire ignited in his heart instantly.Immediately afterwards, his eyes swept to the three oracle tarots, and his anger became even stronger.Without a word, he rushed to Gu Yunyi to grab those three cards.

Just when Lucas's hand touched the card, Ji Xiao jumped up and flew towards the back of Lucas's hand like an arrow off the string, stretched out his sharp claws and scratched hard on the back of his hand. The next three shocking scratches.

Lucas groaned in pain, his eyes were on fire, and he roared, "How dare you steal the oracle Tarot!"

Gu Yunyi was awakened from the meditation state by the noise, and the moment he raised his eyelids, he saw that Lucas seemed to be bullying Ji Xiao, and his heart suddenly felt annoyed that his child was being bullied, and he hugged Ji Xiao from the ground, glaring stared at Luska sternly.

"It was given by me." Principal Churchill followed, and said in a deep voice to all the magic apprentices watching with his hands behind his back: "This deck of cards belonged to him, I just returned it to the original owner."

Lucas looked at Churchill in disbelief, and said word by word: "Principal, are you confused? The origin of this person is unknown. What if he is a spy sent by Howth! Besides, the oracle Tarot is just like that." , why not leave him to a capable magic apprentice!"

As he said that, he picked up the card with Bai Suzhen, glanced at it, and smiled contemptuously: "What is this picture? Children's comics?"

As soon as this remark came out, there was a burst of laughter, and at the same time, there was a burst of subtle discussions.

Montgomery College has always adhered to the principle of fair competition. As long as you have the ability, you can get more powerful magic sacred artifacts. Several apprentices and teachers with outstanding abilities have long played the idea of ​​this deck.

Churchill walked up to Lucas, took a closer look at the picture of Bai Suzhen, and saw that every detail was drawn extremely vividly, then he gave Gu Yunyi an appreciative look: "It's a good painting, it's very beautiful."

Gu Yunyi took the cards with both hands, bowed respectfully, and said "thank you" softly.

Lucas laughed back angrily, and shot a thorn in his eyes to Gu Yunyi: "What's the use of a good painting! Aren't you a boy who saves the world, show off your real skills to compete with me. If you lose, you will take the Hand over this deck."

Among the onlookers, some people who admired Lucas started booing and applauding, and some students who were watching the show and curious also showed excited expressions.

Seeing Gu Yunyi's hesitant expression, Principal Churchill nodded and said with a smile, "Gu, give it a try."

The scorching sun was still in the sky one second, and the dark clouds were low in the next moment, obviously calling for rain.

The news that Lucas was going to compete with Gu Yunyi spread like wildfire, and the children and several teachers who were still in class in the castle came here out of curiosity.Everyone wants to see who is this person who can get the oracle Tarot.

An hour later, Gu Yunyi and Lucas came to a place similar to a ring behind the old castle, which was originally the place where magic apprentices accepted the final acceptance.

Under the arena, several magic teachers including Principal Churchill and Kornsilon stood in the first row, watching Gu Yunyi on the stage.

Cohen knew about Gu Yunyi's situation before, and secretly sweated for him: "Principal, I brought him from the special ability department. Lucas is the strongest magician here, with a violent personality and fierce attacks. If Gu Yunyi is injured, I can't explain it to the Special Ability Department."

Siren, who was standing aside, sighed inaudibly, and silently pressed his hands on the dagger at his waist.

Churchill smiled lightly, "It's not certain who will win."

With a whistle, the noise in the audience stopped suddenly, and everyone's eyes were focused on the stage.

Lucas and Gu Yunyi stood on one side, and Ji Xiao stood with Gu Yunyi's shoulders and waist, his eyes filled with cold light.

"You make the move first, and I'll give you three seconds." Lukas raised his jaw, gave Gu Yunyi a squinting look, and played cards back and forth in his hands, without paying attention to Gu Yunyi at all.

Gu Yunyi turned his head and looked at Ji Xiao, took out from his yellow cloth bag the psychic incense gifted to him by the head of the spiritual channel before he left, and while lighting it, he silently recited the psychic mantra: "Three requests, three cleanses, Help me communicate with the spirit, spread nectar, bless my body, sweep away the filth, and make me live forever."

After finishing speaking, the cinnabar mole at the corner of Gu Yunyi's eyes glowed with a strange light, and the card placed in front of him began to vibrate faintly.

In a short while, Bai Suzhen, fanning a round fan, wearing white gauze all over her body, surrounded by glare, appeared in the sky one meter above her head.

The magic apprentices in the audience were like fried ants, and there was an uproar, and they began to discuss: "What did he summon?!"
