Chapter 8: The Green Spirit Array
Qingfeng Dao was taken aback: "Ah? Isn't this "Maoshan Technique" a book to coax children?"
There are all kinds of books in the study, such as "Maoshan Technique", which is a book that talks about chanting spells and spells, and Qingfeng Dao Chang has always thought that it is a book that fools children. He was also obsessed with this book as a child, because the exercises described in the book to exorcise demons and demons seemed to be extremely powerful.
However, when Qingfeng Dao grew up, he understood that these spells were unreasonable, and they could only be read as novels. I didn't want to see Ji Tianci cast these five thunder spells today, and Qingfeng Dao Chang's heart seemed to be thrown into a boulder, setting off thousands of waves.
Ji Tianci still looked down at his right hand at this time: "The records in "Maoshan Technique" are not very detailed, and I just understood it. ”
Qingfeng Dao Chang was shocked again: "Why not be detailed? I saw that you didn't chant a spell or draw a talisman when you cast the spell, and just waved this palm thunder with one hand and threw it out." Are you really a Five Thunder Mantra?"
Ji Tianci fell into contemplation again, he just thought about it in his heart, and thought of the spell and hand duel of the five thunder mantras, and the aura in his body began to flow towards the meridians of his right hand. The hand of the Five Thunder Mantra is like mobilizing the aura in the body to gather the palm, and the spell is to transform the aura into the spiritual power of the thunder attribute. Although Ji Tianci didn't really draw talismans and chant spells, he did all of them in his heart.
Qingfeng Dao Chang has some remorse in his heart, he once "loved" the "Maoshan Technique" was given up by himself, he once thought about going to Maoshan to visit the masters, but in the end he didn't believe in these spells, and now, he still clearly remembers the spells and hands of the Five Thunder Mantras.
"From Taishan Thunder in the east, from Hengshan Thunder in the south, from Huashan Thunder in the west, from Hengshan Thunder in the north, five thunders are fast. Qingfeng Dao Chang used his right hand to draw symbols in the palm of his left hand, and chanted the spell of the five thunder mantras loudly while drawing, his expression was serious, his movements were standard, and the mantra was recited in a subdued tone, and he really looked like a master casting spells.
After drawing the talisman and reciting the mantra, the Qingfeng Dao Leader also pushed forward with his left hand, and shouted loudly: "Hum, cry." ”
This "hum, cry" is indeed the last paragraph of the spell, but at this time, Qingfeng Dao long read it and made Ji Tianci feel a little funny, like children playing with each other.
The Taoist temple was quiet, and there was no thunder in sight, and the Qingfeng Dao Leader remained unmoved. Ten seconds passed, a breeze blew, and Ji Tianci finally couldn't help but laugh.
"Dad, that's not the case, these five thunder spells need aura to cast. ”
"Aura?" Qingfeng Dao Chang turned around and looked at Ji Tianci, his eyes revealing an inquiry.
Ji Tianci nodded: "Spiritual power is mentioned in the Maoshan Technique, but it does not say where this spiritual power comes from. I just got a lot of aura from the rain, and suddenly I thought of these five thunder spells, and I found that the aura in my body couldn't help but be converted into the so-called 'spiritual power' in the book, so I was able to cast this spell. ”
"Why haven't you done it before? Qingfeng Dao Chang asked again.
Ji Tianci sighed: "These five thunder spells are estimated to be cultivated to the transformation of Xiaocheng before they can be cast, just because the rain contains a large amount of heaven and earth aura, I can use this thick aura to be able to cast, at this time I am afraid that I will not be able to cast it a second time." ”
Qingfeng Dao Leader somewhat understood, the mutant is small, and a large amount of spiritual energy can be stored in the body, otherwise the spiritual energy will just enter and exit the body with the breath like air. And the aura of heaven and earth is very thin, and Tianci cannot quickly absorb enough aura to complete the spell. As for Fang Cai, it was like a high concentration of oxygen suddenly appeared around him, and Tianci took a sharp breath, naturally feeling "energetic". If the surrounding aura is sufficient, Ji Tianci should be able to cast spells at any time, or cultivate to the point of mutation, store the aura in his body in advance and then release the spell.
Thinking of the cultivation method of the transformation stage, Qingfeng Dao Leader shook his head again, he hadn't even cultivated to open the mansion, let alone the transformation. The heavenly endowment is the culmination of the opening of the mansion, but the cultivation method of the transformation period is to continuously introduce a large amount of spiritual energy into the body to refine the physical body, how can the spiritual energy between heaven and earth be thin and introduced into the body like a waterfall? Could it be that in ancient times, the spiritual energy of this heaven and earth was very strong, so the books left by the ancients did not regard this as a problem. Isn't there any other way to increase the concentration of the aura of heaven and earth?
Suddenly, the Qingfeng Dao Leader shouted loudly as if he had been awakened: "Formation!"
Ji Tianci watched suspiciously, Qingfeng Daoist ran into the study, and after a while, Qingfeng Daoist walked to him with a stack of books.
Qingfeng Dao Chang put down the book, Ji Tianci took a general look, except for "I Ching" and "Qimen Dunjia", I haven't read anything else. These unseen books are supposed to be books used to cushion table corners and shelves, and they are covered with dust.
Qingfeng Dao Chang picked up a copy of the "Ancient Formation Map" and slapped it twice, and suddenly, the dust raised choked him and coughed. The moonlight is shining tonight, and both of them can read the pictures and texts in the book clearly through the moonlight.
Qingfeng Dao Chang said while flipping through the book: "This book was brought back by your uncle when he went to Shushan in his early years, and I thought it was nonsense after reading it, but now I think that there is a chapter in it that writes a formation, called 'Qingling Array', which is said to be able to gather the spirits of heaven and earth." Yes, here it is. ”
Qingfeng pointed to a page in the book, which was yellowed, but he could barely make out the patterns and annotations on it.
Ji Tianci also came together to read carefully, the book introduced that this Qingling Array was a large array laid out when the Ancient Immortal Sect opened its sect, this formation is indeed very "big", according to the words described in the book, the entire Golden Bull Mountain can only be a formation corner.
Qingfeng Dao Chang quickly turned the whole chapter, and once again felt that this formation was nonsense, he smiled bitterly, and said to Ji Tianci: "Forget it, let's not read this book, the book says that this array contains the way of Tai Chi, and it is said that this array comes from ancient times, but how can there be a concept of Tai Chi in ancient times, isn't this nonsense?"
Ji Tianci pondered for a while and replied: "What this formation says is actually not unreasonable, but this book is a modern version, and it will be understood and annotated by future generations, and a lot of later concepts will be added. ”
Qingfeng Dao Chang thought for a moment and nodded again: "Well, you're right. ”
Ji Tianci continued: "In this commentary, it is said that flowers and trees all have spirits, and the five elements are born of gold, gold and water, and water and wood. In this way, we only need to put some rockeries and fake water in the courtyard, and we can also set up small arrays. ”
Qingfeng Dao Chief's eyes lit up: "Tonight, we will study the formation method, how about starting the formation tomorrow?"
"Hmm!" Ji Tianci was also a little excited, he was very interested in this formation, and even realized some chess principles from this formation.
This night, the father and son did not go to the top of the mountain to practice, they have been reading books in the room, Ji Tianci took out paper and pen and kept drawing patterns, and people who didn't know thought that they were drawing a house landscape design drawing.
Today, there are two beds in the room of the Breeze Chief, but they hardly ever sleep here.
As soon as the morning dawned, the father and son borrowed a shovel, an awl and a shovel from the old yellow head, looking like they were going to decorate the Taoist temple.
For the next week, Ji Tianci almost never sleeped, digging in the courtyard of the Taoist temple and laying stones, and Qingfeng Daoist only occasionally rested. The old yellow head watched the father and son busy every day with great interest, and sometimes gave advice and told them how to look better.
A week later, there are a lot of rockeries and fake water in this courtyard, obviously there are not too many plants, but at a glance it feels that the Taoist temple is full of greenery. It stands to reason that with more landscapes, this one should be more crowded, but as soon as you step into the gate, you feel like you have entered a world, and the landscapes seem to "come to life", as if they should have been here, as if they were in the middle of a smoky mountain.
In addition to being amazed, the old yellow head also said to Daoist Qingfeng: "Daoist, I think that if you go to that big city to decorate the villas of that rich and noble family, you will definitely be very popular, and maybe you can make a lot of money." ”
Qingfeng Dao Chang was a little ashamed after hearing this, he relied on the change in the merit box every day to live, and sometimes when he had no money, he ate and drank with the old yellow head, but fortunately, after cultivating the exercises, he didn't have to eat mortal food, otherwise he was really embarrassed to drag his family to eat together.
That night, Ji Tianci sat cross-legged in the center of the courtyard, which was the position of the eye of the Qingling Array. The courtyard is surrounded by a variety of strange-shaped boulders, which are simply carved with an awl and look like a hill. In the southeast and northwest corners of the courtyard, you can also see two small ponds, there are fallen leaves floating in the ponds, the fallen leaves are withered yellow, and they show a trace of green after floating on the water surface for a long time.
Ji Tianci sat in the position of the array with his eyes closed for more than half an hour, and the Qingfeng Dao chief stood beside him, his eyes revealing expectation.
Suddenly, Ji Tianci opened his eyes and his eyes were shining.
Before he could speak, the Qingfeng Dao Leader hurriedly asked, "How is it?
Ji Tianci turned his head, slightly excited: "I see that the green aura around me is really slowly drifting towards here!"
