Chapter 20 The Four Treasures of the Study
The main hall is extremely wide, and the volume is even larger than the square outside, even if hundreds of people gather at its entrance, it does not seem crowded.
There is not much furnishings in the hall, and there is a square table facing the temple door, on which is placed an incense burner for incense and candles.
In front of the square table are several prayer mats for people to kneel, and on the left side is a merit box.
To Zhang San's horror, there were no statues of gods in the hall, and there was only a blank wall behind the square table.
"System, what's going on? Why isn't there a god enshrined in this hall?" Zhang San asked the system suspiciously.
"Host, the main hall is not dedicated to gods, and no god in this world dares to be enshrined here. ”
"What should the main hall enshrine, should the believers worship the white wall?"
"Host, the main hall is dedicated to the [Dao]. The Tao needs to be written by the host himself. ”
"I'll write it, what's wrong?"
At this moment, Zhang San is really a one-meter-eight Taoist priest who is confused.
"To write the word [Dao], you need to use [Dao Paper], "Dao Ink", "Dao Pen", "Dao Yan", collectively known as the Four Treasures of the Study, if you want to obtain it, the host needs to complete the task released by the system. ”
"Damn, it's so troublesome, and I still have to complete the task. ”
Zhang San's brows furrowed, but then he suddenly remembered something, "System, if I'm not mistaken, this building a Taoist temple is my novice task! ”
"What nonsense is the host talking about, am I that kind of unification? How can a system like me be greedy for the host's rewards. ”
"Ding! The novice task reward has been distributed, please check it as soon as possible, count down to 5 seconds, 5, 4, 3 ......"
"it, get it!"
After seeing that the system shamelessly started the countdown, Zhang San hurriedly shouted.
"Ding! The novice task reward Gu has successfully claimed. ”
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a copy of the Golden Pill Treasure Book. ”
"Congratulations to the host for getting a copy of "Talisman Making Tips". ”
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a set of the Four Treasures of the Study. ”
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the treasure weapon 'Ten Square Shoes in the Sky'. ”
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the supernatural power "Demagoguery". ”
"Hahaha, it's all good stuff. ”
Listening to the reward of the system prompt sound, Zhang San laughed happily.
Then, Zhang San carefully inspected the reward again, "System, tell me what that "demagoguery" is all about, how does it sound a bit of a villain." ”
"Host, "demagoguery", as the name suggests, is the ability to exude a mesmerizing power when the host recites the Taoist scriptures, which can make the listener even more obsessed with the host. ”
"Damn, this is really not a good thing, it seems that it will be used more in the future, and it is better to develop trillions of believers, and then the merit will be endless. "Zhang San is very evil and imagines a bright future.
"Host, this magical power hurts the heavens and can only be used three times a month, so it is still a little difficult for the host to brainwash trillions of people. The system immediately poured cold water on Zhang San, breaking his beautiful illusion.
"Humph!"
Zhang San snorted arrogantly, and did not continue to talk to the system, but took out the "Four Treasures of the Study", one of the rewards this time, from the system space.
When the so-called "Four Treasures of the Study" that could write the word "Dao" was taken out, Zhang San was immediately disappointed.
Because of the "Four Treasures of the Study", except for the paper in it, which is three meters long and three meters wide, the other three are similar to the ordinary Four Treasures of the Study.
"System, these things aren't fakes, why don't they have any special effects?
"Host, I'm a system, not a movie, what special effects do you want, is there a lot of merit?"
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you, do you want me to write the word [Dao] on paper?!"
"Yes. ”
After receiving a positive response from the system, Zhang San immediately spread the 3×3 square paper on the wide and clean ground.
Then he took some water from the nearby lotus pond and put it on the inkstone, and began to grind the ink.
As a Taoist priest who has been in Taoism since he was a child, Zhang San naturally learned some calligraphy from his master.
Although his calligraphy is not very good, it is definitely a hundred times better than those calligraphy bricks who rely on grandstanding and background background.
This is not a random blow, as for those so-called calligraphy brick spray books, shooting books, ugly books, cheap books, dog books and other stupid books, Zhang San can write better than them with his hair.
After a while, the ink was polished, and Zhang San immediately opened the shelf, lifted the so-called "Dao Pen" and dipped it on the ink.
And then...... And then it's embarrassing.
Because the pen can't be stained with ink, the bristles are still white and flawless.
"System, what's going on?" Zhang San immediately asked the system.
"Host, this Dao Pen is naturally not a mundane thing, and spiritual power must be injected into it in order to make it stained with ink. If it weren't for the fact that the host happened to use the water of the lotus pond when grinding the ink, the host would not be able to grind the Dao ink. ”
"Premium goods are really different. ”
Zhang San sighed, then threw the system aside, and the spiritual power in his body penetrated into the "Dao Pen" in his hand, and then dipped it into the ink.
Sure enough, this time, he managed to get the ink on.
Everything was ready, and just when he was about to put pen to paper, Zhang San suddenly thought of something, and then asked the system, "System, do I have to inject spiritual power into the [Dao paper] to get the pen down?"
"The host is so smart, that's it. ”
"Hehe, I'm so smart, I'm really annoyed. ”
Zhang San was shamelessly narcissistic, and then threw the system aside.
Then, he stepped on the "Dao Paper" with one foot, penetrated the spiritual power in his body, and held the "Dao Pen" in one hand to show his talent on the paper.
And then...... And then it was embarrassing again.
The pen touched the paper, but the paper was still white and flawless, and not a trace of ink appeared on the paper.
"System, what's going on? Didn't I infuse my spiritual power into the Dao Paper?"
"Host, it is true that you can write on the Dao Paper by inputting spiritual power into it, but this [Dao] character is too special, with the host's current cultivation, it is not enough to be qualified to write the [Dao] character on the [Dao Paper]. ”
"I'm grass, and I have to look at the cultivation when I write a word, it's really ...... There's really nothing to say. ”
Zhang San was almost stunned, but he still held back, and then asked again: "System, what kind of cultivation do I need to be qualified to write the word [Dao]?"
"Host, according to the estimation of this system, when your cultivation reaches the Jindan stage, you will be qualified to write the first stroke of the [Dao] character stroke order. ”
"I ********"
Zhang San was full of harmonious words, this is too contemptuous of people, and he can only write a stroke order when he breaks through to the Jindan period.
(To be continued, the follow-up will be more exciting)
