Chapter 35 Jason: Today is a good day!(1/4)
fragrance!
The aroma of 'food' is wafting from the young man in front of you.
Moreover, there is more than one scent.
To be precise, from the other party's arms, wrists, and neck!
The opponent carries several items that can be called 'food'.
Is this the heritage of a big family?
Do they carry a few props that are rare for ordinary people to see on their bodies?
The four major Onmyoji families are richer than imagined!
Jason nodded as he thought.
"Um."
No more was said.
Toward a stranger, Jason's attitude was basically vigilance, vigilance hidden under indifference.
Don't talk to strangers.
In the 'city that never sleeps', this is well known.
For Jason, he needs to be even more vigilant when facing a stranger with ‘food’ in his arms.
After all, 'food' is delicious.
But, it's equally fatal.
However, this young man from the Huakaiyuan family seemed unable to see Jason's indifference and vigilance. After Jason nodded in response, the young man immediately said: "Have you discovered anything?"
Ryosuke, who looked more professional, was not asked.
He also did not ask the old monk Tongshou Temple who should have been asked.
He didn't even look at Hui Lijing.
Just ask Jason...
Ryousuke looked indifferent.
Hui Lijing gritted her teeth in anger.
The old monk Tongshou Temple shook his head slightly.
Obviously, this is a common problem among young people from big families.
Compare!
This young man from the Huakaiyuan family is currently comparing himself with Jason.
In other words, the other party wanted to see why Jason could become the heir to Tongshou Temple.
And Jason?
"have."
A concise and concise answer.
"Excuse me, what is it?"
The young man became interested and asked more questions.
"Why should I tell you?"
Jason asked rhetorically.
The young man was startled.
He looked at Jason in a daze. The development of the matter seemed to be a little wrong. Shouldn't he be honest? Then he found the flaw in his words, ridiculed him, covered his face and ran away?
Why hasn't it started yet, but I feel like it's about to end.
This makes young people very unwilling.
After frowning slightly, the young man spoke.
"How can you tell me?"
As he spoke, the young man pretended to be sincere and looked at Jason.
Nowadays, there is no shame in being humble and petty.
After a while, he will take back his capital with interest.
"Do you know alchemy?"
Jason asked a seemingly abrupt question.
"alchemy?"
"Know."
The young man nodded.
Although they belong to an Onmyoji family, they are familiar with the alchemy skills of young people overseas. Especially some of the alchemy skills that are rumored to be able to break through the 'life taboo' make people even more curious.
"Then do you know the most famous words in alchemy?"
Jason continued to ask.
The young man frowned.
There are many famous sayings in alchemy.
Such as——
One is the whole, and the whole is one.
The other side of the door is not Shambhala.
Nothing is perfect, the world is not perfect, that's why it appears beautiful.
These words can be regarded as famous quotes in alchemy.
However, soon, the young people from the Huakaiyuan family reacted.
"Principle of Equivalent Exchange?"
"You mean if I want to know what you found, I have to pay for items of the same value?"
The young man is not stupid. He quickly came up with the answer based on the scene that happened in front of him.
Jason didn't deny it.
This in itself was the answer he wanted.
"Everyone needs to pay the same price to get something!"
"This is the principle of equivalent exchange! At that time, we believed that this was the truth of the world - but the real world is not perfect! There is no principle that can explain everything, and the same is true for the principle of equivalent exchange!"
"But we are still willing to do it sometimes."
"Because, most of the time, we don't have a choice."
Jason said.
"very good."
"Then if I want to know what you discovered, what will it cost?"
The young man from the Huakaiyuan family nodded slightly and asked.
He recognized Jason's words very much.
Most of the time, they have no choice.
He also became more and more interested in Jason's discoveries.
"A prop on your body."
Jason said.
Although the young man in front of him had more than one item, Jason also wanted them all.
But he knew even more clearly that this was impossible.
Don't say you want them all.
Even for one of these items, Jason was ready to bargain.
It was just beyond Jason's expectation that the young man in front of him nodded without hesitation.
"good."
"Using a prop on my body as a bargaining chip, you tell me what I found."
The young man nodded happily.
Jason was even more happy and said directly.
