Everyone's Suppressing Ghosts: Others Contract Divine Weapons, I Contract Blank Paper

Chapter 34 The Unclaimed Family Tree Stands True! Forgery Exposed!

"Now."

After Xu Du finished speaking, the cafeteria was quiet for two seconds.

The recording on the communication screen was still looping.

"Let's go take a look."

"Um.

""

"Can."

Three sentences were edited into a viral post.

[Xu Du sold? He received a late-night visit from the Shen family, suggesting he may have joined the Shen family!]

[Keywords: Shen Family Secret Treasury, Treatment of the Three Elders, Shared Research.]

The replies below were scrolling by incredibly fast.

[An annual salary of 80 million, who can afford it?]

Is the white paper soul-guiding lamp going to enter the Shen family?

Didn't they say he refused yesterday?

[The recording is already done, so what are you refusing for?]

The next reply suddenly popped up.

Xu Du has gone to the review room!

The post paused for a moment.

The forum exploded the next second.

[A review room?]

Why isn't he issuing a statement?

Is he going to re-examine abandoned town structures again?

[Sixth item: Unclaimed family genealogy!]

Lin Qingzhu stood at the entrance of the cafeteria and looked at Xu Du.

"Public records?"

Xu Du nodded.

"Um.

""

"public."

Lin Qingzhu directly connected to the main control terminal.

"The object verification room maintains public records."

Teacher Chen was taken aback.

"----Now?"

Lin Qingzhu said, "Now."

No one spoke in the cafeteria anymore.

This is not an explanation.

This is not a clarification.

The nucleic acid testing room was opened, and the test was conducted on the spot.

9:17 a.m.

The Jianggui Town Object Verification Room is now open.

The large screen lights up.

[Applicant for review: Xu Du.]

[Currently used item: White paper soul-guiding lamp.]

[Item Rating: Special Grade A]

Town Degree: 5.3.

[Pollution fluctuation: 0.]

[Current Merit Points: 7396]

Blank talisman inventory: 4068 sheets.

[Subject of this review: Unclaimed family genealogies.]

[Original rating: Discarded.]

[Original reason for abandonment: The automatic recording of the contact's intent resulted in confusion and caused three false alarms.]

[Original recommended action: Permanently archive.]

The four ports are connected in sequence.

[Jianggui Academy Main Control Terminal: Connected.]

[Jiangcheng Lingguan Bureau Recording Terminal: Connected.]

[Beijing Ghost Detective Exchange Group Observation Terminal: Connected.]

[Shen Family Representative Terminal: Connected.]

When Shenjiabu lights up, only one name is displayed in the corner of the screen.

[Shen Yan.]

The head of the Shen family personally received them.

In the last row of the observation area, Zhou Cheng held the thunder-patterned peach wood sword, his face cold.

Someone nearby whispered, "—Do you think that recording is real or fake?"

Zhou Cheng didn't turn around.

"Fake."

"—How can you be so sure?"

Zhou Cheng said coldly, "He doesn't sell lamps."

The man immediately shut up.

Zhou Cheng was not helping Xu Du.

He only knew that Xu Du would not hand over the white paper soul-guiding lamp.

Lin Xue was also watching on the Beijing Ghost Observation Platform.

Deng Qi stood behind her and whispered, "—Can this thing really detect it?"

Lin Xue said, "Watch."

Inside the verification room, a long, sealed container was pushed onto a track.

The three seals were unlocked one by one.

The external image lights up.

An old booklet appeared on the screen.

The cover is grayish.

No surname.

There is no ancestral hall name.

There is no family crest.

There were only four words, so faint they were almost invisible.

[Unclaimed family genealogy.]

It lay quietly on the isolation rack.

Teacher Chen glanced at the data.

[Spillover of mental pollution: 0.8%]

[Intent-driven: Not triggered.]

Paper activity: Low.

Lin Qingzhu nodded.

"Follow the usual procedure."

The bell to ward off evil spirits rings first.

The bell rang on the sealed box, and the unclaimed family tree only trembled slightly.

[Suppressing effect of the Soul-Suppressing Bell: Ineffective.]

The Buddha's light shone through the protective mirror.

As soon as the mirror surface brightened, the paper texture on the cover of the family tree became even clearer.

[Buddha's Light Mirror Examination: Results Unstable.]

[False intent afterimage detected.]

The third standard edge sealing seal is affixed to the isolation cover.

As soon as the runes lit up, the unclaimed family tree suddenly turned a page.

Wow.

Everyone in the review room heard the sound of paper being swished.

The large screen immediately turned red.

[Standard edge sealing: Failed.]

[Paper activity increased by 31%.]

[The intention to guide begins.]

On the blank page, the ink seeped out on its own.

Chen Qiu: I'm worried about a potential accident during the review process.

Teacher Chen's expression changed.

The next line appears immediately.

[Song Lin: I want to know if the recording is real or fake.]

The third line is faster.

Zhou Cheng: I don't believe Xu Du can enter the Shen family.

Someone in the observation area subconsciously looked at Zhou Cheng.

Zhou Cheng's face was cold.

"—Why are you looking at me?"

The fourth line floats up.

[Deng Qi: I want to see Xu Du make a mistake.]

On the other side of Jingguibu, Deng Qi's face stiffened.

The fifth line also appeared.

[Shen Yan: Investigate the Shen family's internal affairs.]

Shenjiabu was silent.

Teacher Chen's hand remained pressed on the testing table, not moving an inch.

A few seconds later, she raised her voice: "Stop."

"Stop the routine procedures."

She pushed up her glasses, stared at the screen, and lowered her voice: "It can write intentions."

"Can't tell the difference between real and fake."

"If we keep going, everyone in the port will be dragged in by it."

This is why unclaimed family genealogies were deemed invalid.

It can write.

But what I wrote was too messy.

True intentions.

False intentions.

The intention behind the afterimage.

Inducing intent.

They're all mixed up on one page.

The more I look at it, the more confused I get.

The more chaotic things are, the easier it is to make a misjudgment.

Someone in the observation area couldn't help but ask, "—So how exactly do you verify the recordings with this thing?"

"Even it can't tell the difference, bro."

"Another piece of trash."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Du moved.

He pulled a blank talisman from the box.

Lay the white paper flat.

A white paper lantern, meant to guide the soul, hangs beside it.

The black cloth was not removed.

A bluish-white light has already shone onto the paper.

A notification pops up on the main screen.

[White Paper Soul-Guiding Lamp: Self-responsive.]

[Paper reel forming conditions: Met.]

[Estimated consumption for this event: 1 card.]

Teacher Chen's eyelids twitched.

"—Just one?"

Xu Du picked up his pen.

The pen tip falls.

A word appeared on the paper.

【real】

The moment the words were written, all the screens in the review room flashed simultaneously.

The family tree without an owner has stopped turning pages.

The messy handwriting on the first page faded away line by line.

Home screen refreshed.

Paper activity: 31%.

Paper activity: 19%.

Paper activity: 7%.

[Intentional guidance: to stop.]

[Authenticity verification rules: Under construction.]

The observation area was deathly silent.

The family genealogy book, which had originally been deemed obsolete, now had an extra vertical line in the center of its pages.

It's like forcibly separating the chaotic ink marks.

The one on the left is fake.

The one on the right is true.

Xu Du glanced up at the recording input.

"Put that one down."

Teacher Chen immediately connected the forum recording to the verification terminal.

"Let's go take a look."

"Um."

"Can."

The three sentences rang out in the review room.

The unclaimed family genealogy has been turned to its second page.

The character "许" (Xu) first appeared faintly on the paper.

Soon, the character was crossed out with ink lines.

A black "fake" icon appeared next to it.

Main screen synchronized transcription.

[Voice imitation.]

The second line appears.

[Voice actor: Xu Du.]

Third line.

[The intention is not to allow passage.]

Fourth line.

[Seven instances of sound cutting.]

Fifth line.

[Three sentences of truth have been deleted.]

The ink suddenly darkened.

[Delete: Don't go.]

[Second deletion: No changes.]

[Third deletion: The blank paper soul-guiding lamp does not belong to any family.]

The review room exploded.

"Seven places?"

"Seventh Division, bro?"

Even the sentence "The white paper lamp doesn't belong to any family" was deleted?

"The voice is his, but the meaning isn't!"

"He really refused!"

"This isn't a misconception; someone is getting a haircut!"

In Jingguibu, Deng Qi's face turned pale.

Lin Xue only said one sentence: "————As expected."

Zhou Cheng stood in the last row without saying a word.

But the look in his eyes when he looked at the unclaimed family tree changed.

Abandoned town building.

It flipped over again.

The third page will expand automatically.

The cluttered intentions no longer appear on the paper.

There is only one ink line.

The ink line extends from below the two characters "false voice", one end connecting to "Shen Family Main Hall" and the other end falling to a name.

[Name of the person in charge: Shen Hewen]

In Shenjiabu, Shen Yan's voice finally rang out.

He paused for a second.

"----continue."

The unclaimed family genealogy continues to be exposed.

[The source of the false voice: the third branch of the Shen family.]

[The name that was chosen: Shen Hewen.]

[The sound was taken from the main hall.]

[To cut the real from the fake.]

[Judgment: Malicious forgery.]

The last four words fell.

Automatic archiving on large screens.

[The publicly reviewed chain of evidence is valid.]

[Jianggui Academy Main Control Terminal: Archived.]

[Jiangcheng Lingzhi Bureau Records: Archived.]

[Beijing Ghost Detective Exchange Group Observation Terminal: Archived.]

[Shen family representative: Received.]

The forum's synchronized area refreshed instantly.

[The recording is fake!]

[Seven parts of the audio were cut! Three sentences of truth were deleted!]

[Name of person mentioned: Shen Hewen, third son of the Shen family!]

Xu Du refused to sell the lamps!

[When others issued statements, he used items from an abandoned town to verify their authenticity.]

The key point is a single sheet of paper.

[This use: 1 card.]

[A single sheet of paper exposed the entire fake voice?]

The popular post about "Xu Du has been sold" was forcibly locked by the administrators.

The new clarification post surged to the top of the homepage within ten seconds.

The title is only one line long.

Xu Du didn't explain; the abandoned town artifacts spoke for him.

In the review room, Teacher Chen looked at the rating panel and pressed confirm.

[Results of the verification of the unclaimed family genealogy.]

[Original rating: Discarded.]

[Current rating recommendation: Special Grade B.]

[Functional Focus: Identification]

[Core capabilities: Authenticity assessment, intent analysis, and identification of falsehoods through deduction.]

[Side effect: It will still trigger intentional attraction when multiple people are looking directly at it; it needs to be used in conjunction with the White Paper Soul-Guiding Lamp.]

[New character added: 真 (zhēn)]

[Materials needed: 1 blank talisman paper.]

Blank talisman inventory: 4067 sheets.

[Pollution fluctuation in Xudu: 0.]

The word "abandoned" was crossed out.

The words "Special Grade B" were re-covered.

In the observation area, someone was counting in a low voice.

"White paper lamp".

"Mourning paper figures".

"Unnamed memorial tablet".

"A wooden comb with broken teeth."

"Half-face portrait."

"—Add another one, an unclaimed family genealogy."

Six items.

Six abandoned town artifacts.

In Xu Du's hands, they were all used differently.

Lin Qingzhu looked at the final panel.

"Suggested changes, revised."

Teacher Chen asked, "Should we change it to special observation?"

Lin Qingzhu said, "Prepare the resource pool."

Teacher Chen paused for a moment, then typed.

[Suggested renaming: Permanently archive → Prepare resource pool.]

[Calling Restriction: Available only with Xu Du's assistance.]

Independent use: Not recommended at this time.

Shen Yan's voice rang out again from the Shen family representative's seat.

"Jiang Gui"

"Shen family, all records have been received."

He paused for a second.

"The Shen family will provide an explanation for this matter."

No one answered in the review room.

Xu Du didn't have it either.

He simply took back the "true" note.

The edges of the paper reel have turned gray.

Teacher Chen asked, "Should we file this?"

Xu Du glanced at the paper.

"————It's been used."

"It can't be stored."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scroll of paper without fire turned into ashes.

The unclaimed family genealogy slowly closed.

The main screen has been refreshed for the last time.

[White Paper Soul-Guiding Lamp: Stable.]

[Unclaimed family tree: Stable.]

[New character added: 真 (zhēn)]

[Fake Recording Incident: Chain of Evidence Filed.]

[Current review complete.]

Xu Du picked up the white paper soul-guiding lamp and turned to walk out.

The observation area automatically made way for it.

No one asked him anymore whether he had joined the Shen family.

No one asked him again if he wanted an explanation.

Because the family genealogy for him has already been written out.

He didn't sell it.

He refused.

He also casually turned a discarded item into a special B-grade appraisal item.

Outside the building where the nuclear test was being conducted, the communication screen vibrated.

Lin Qingzhu sent a message.

[The Shen family has applied for a public statement.]

[The Bureau of Spirits Management's record-keeping system recommends adding a review contribution.]

[The academy's control panel suggests: Unclaimed family genealogies should be included in the abandoned town's resource pool.]

Xu Du glanced at it.

No reply.

Beneath the white paper lantern and black cloth, a bluish-white light gently illuminated.

It's like projecting an unfinished character onto a piece of paper.

He put away his communication screen and walked out of the building.
