Chapter 49 wedge

Xichuan City has never experienced such a cold winter. This cold wave is nationwide. I heard that the south was hit by snowstorms.Fortunately, Xichuan City is a mountain city, and Xichuan University is surrounded by towering mountains, which block the cold air, and the students in the college enjoy the rare warmth. This afternoon, in the lecture hall of the main building of Xichuan University, a lecture on the theme of "Turkey's natural and cultural heritage" was being held. The lecturer was Professor Lin Zaiyun from the Department of Archeology.Professor Lin participated in an international archaeological symposium in Turkey a month ago. This time he brought back a lot of detailed information and pictures. In addition, he has a sense of humor and witty remarks in his speeches, which made the auditorium even more exciting. There were applause and applause from the students.

When the lecture was about to end, Professor Lin suddenly stood up and said to the students in the audience: "Students, if you have the opportunity to travel to Turkey in the future, if you encounter local people selling handmade Don’t buy handicrafts without permission. Because there is a kind of handicraft that tourists are strictly prohibited from buying.” He took out a copper handicraft wrapped in transparent plastic from behind the podium and placed it on the stage. It is a piece of brown copper, about the size of a palm, and looks a bit like an elephant. Under the trunk-like tip, there is a crystal clear blue-blue pendant. The pendant should be made of amber. , there seems to be something shining in the center of the amber.

When Professor Lin pointed the camera at the pendant, an eyeball appeared on the projector screen behind the podium, an eyeball full of hatred, staring at the students under the podium. There was a burst of girls' screams in the lecture hall, and Professor Lin smiled slightly and said loudly: "This is the handicraft that tourists are strictly forbidden to buy in the legend. I brought it back after a special application. It is said that it is from Turkey. After the wizard gouged out the eyeballs of the condemned prisoners, they wrapped them in high-temperature melted resin and polished them to make such handicrafts."

"What's the name of this handicraft?" A beautiful girl asked curiously from the audience. "This thing is called the evil eye." Professor Lin replied, "In Turkish folklore, the evil eye originated from the gypsy witchcraft in the Middle East. Get rid of the evil spirit and jealousy of outsiders around the master, so that the master can keep peace forever." "Since the evil eye can ward off evil and jealousy for the owner, why doesn't Turkey allow tourists to buy it at will?" The beautiful girl just now continued to ask. "Well, that's a good question. This student, what's your name?" Professor Lin asked back.

"My name is Qin Xianxian, and I'm a student of the Chinese Department." The girl replied shyly. Professor Lin smiled and continued: "According to the Turkish legend, the evil eye can absorb all the evil energy around the owner, but as long as it is inhaled, the evil energy will take root in the evil eye. There was an explosion, and the owner was injured.” He paused, and then said, “After I applied to the local government to purchase the Xieyan, they asked me to write down a statement of ‘If the Xieyan explodes, all consequences will be borne by the buyer. I got this Xieyan smoothly after undertaking the documents. Moreover, the government also asked the craftsman who sold me the Xieyan to guarantee that this Xieyan was just made and did not inhale any external evil spirit and jealousy. Heart."

Qin Xianxian in the audience couldn't help laughing, and she said heartily: "Professor Lin, if you have a grudge against anyone, then when the evil energy absorbed by Xieyan reaches a certain target, I will give Xieyan to you." Enemy. In this case, Xieyan will avenge you when it explodes!" "Haha, student Qin, you really have a sense of humor." Professor Lin also said with a smile. But when Professor Lin had just finished speaking, the students in the lecture hall suddenly heard a crisp sound of "bang", and a cloud of purple smoke curled up from the podium.When the smoke cleared, the evil eye on the projector screen disappeared, leaving only a pile of twisted amber on the podium, and the eyeball of that amber was also broken, rolling out of the transparent plastic paper, becoming Make a mess of blood.

The lecture hall suddenly became chaotic, girls screamed one after another, but Professor Lin said with a smile: "This is the end of today's lecture, welcome to all the students."
