Text Chapter 21, Drawing Symbols
"You don't care how tall it is, it's very high, it's unimaginably high, it's better than—okay." Sun Shouwu looked at Liu Wei'an's skeptical eyes, paused, and said seriously: "Know the immortals, ancient Chinese mythology, with a wave of your hand, moving mountains and reclaiming the sea, the sun and the moon have no light, after the ancient scriptures are practiced, it is probably this effect, you can pick the stars with your hands, and your body crosses the universe——"
"I know it's amazing." Liu Wei'an interrupted him, "However, what does this have to do with you. ”
"It doesn't matter, it's a big deal." Sun Shouwu waved his arm vigorously and said, "Do you think, the six great families, as well as those of us, have formed a relatively stable situation after hundreds of years of development, everyone knows how much ability they have, what if someone suddenly gets the ancient scriptures?" ”
"The balance is broken?" Liu Wei'an seemed to understand something.
"That's right, once the balance is broken, what we are facing is a new round of reshuffle, and when the time comes, the situation will be turbulent, and it will be a bloody storm, and it will be the people who suffer." Sun Shouwu showed a compassionate expression of compassion for the heavens.
"Pretend, keep pretending!" Liu Wei was contemptuous, and he didn't believe that Sun Shouwu was so kind when he was killed. Looking at Sun Shouwu's contrived appearance, I almost wanted to vomit.
"So, I have to stop the ambitions from getting their hands on the ancient scriptures." Sun Shouwu looked at Liu Wei'an's suspicious eyes, his old face turned red, and he coughed, "Of course, it can't be ruled out that there are some selfish motives, I also want to see what the legendary ancient scriptures look like." ”
"And then?"
"Everyone has their own abilities, you chase me and grab it, the person who grabbed it fled in front, and the person who didn't succeed chased behind, fought all the way, I don't know how many people died, ran from the northeast to the west, ran from the south to the north, and changed hands several times-"
"And then you came to Stone Town?" Liu Wei'an didn't know that Sun Shouwu was a chatter.
"How do you know?" Sun Shouwu glared at him.
"You have a lot of people crowded here, and the blind have seen it." Liu Wei'an rolled his eyes.
"Uh-is it that obvious?" Sun Shouwu smiled embarrassedly, "Okay, after going around for a few months, everyone has lost patience, so they didn't deliberately hide their traces, of course, the main thing is that they can't hide it, and in the end they did chase it to Stone City, but after that, the thing disappeared." ”
"Gone? What do you mean? Liu Wei'an looked at him puzzled
"Who knows." Sun Shouwu was quite depressed.
"What do you mean by not knowing?"
"It's just that something is lost, I don't know where it went, it may have been lost on the ground, it may have been taken away by a tiger, it may have been destroyed, anyway, it is gone. However, everyone unanimously guessed that it was quietly taken away, the old Zhao family thought it was in the hands of the old Liu family, and the old Liu family thought it was in the hands of the old Wang family, suspicious of each other and guarded against each other. But there is also a speculation that maybe it was accidentally picked up by the people of Stone Town, after all, the place where the ancient scriptures disappeared is the closest to Stone Town, and the so-called people are mixed, maybe someone happened to pass by. This one is hand-in-hand, fishing in troubled waters or something. Sun Shouwu babbled.
"So-" Liu Wei'an's face remained unchanged, but his heart suddenly jumped, and he seemed to understand what was going on.
"Well, that's right, so!" Sun Shouwu nodded.
Several major families in order to find the lost ancient scriptures, do not hesitate to kill, just because there is no clue, the nearest stone town has become the first object of suffering, so the corpses are all over the field, blood flowed like a river, at the beginning it is estimated that it is just a simple search for the ancient scriptures, after the killing of the eyes, it is inevitable that there are more other thoughts, take the opportunity to destroy, you smash my shop, I rob your caravan, public anger and personal vendettas, it is estimated that this is the main reason for the intensification of the turmoil and out of control.
Otherwise, no matter how powerful the six families were, they would not dare to be so unscrupulous.
"Ask you a question!" Liu Wei'an looked at Sun Shouwu, "What does the ancient scripture look like." ”
"I don't know!" Sun Shouwu was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a long time before saying, "It should be the appearance of a book." ”
"You've been chasing for months, and you haven't even seen what the book looks like?" Liu Wei'an's face was incredulous.
"You know, what our Sun family said is also a big family, but in fact, it is still a little worse than the six major families." Sun Shouwu's old face flushed, "That's why I said I was troubled." ”
"Ask another question, what is the name of the ancient scripture, it can't be called the ancient scripture, right?"
Sun Shouwu's old face turned even redder, and he coughed: "This ...... Since I found it in the Dark Sacred Mountain, it should be related to the darkness, that, I still have something to do, the chat is over, I'll go first. Seeing that Liu Wei'an still had a problem, Sun Shouwu fled in despair.
Looking at Sun Shouwu's back, Liu Wei'an was almost sure that the piece of amber he grabbed was the so-called ancient scripture, and he was the last beneficiary, but was the ancient scripture so magical? He didn't feel it, but he suffered a lot. Shaking his head, he walked out of the 'Doctor of the Immortal' pharmacy and suddenly woke up, he planned to talk to Sun Lingzhi for a while. I was embarrassed to go in again, so I had to leave in a huff.
The shops on the street have opened, the aftermath of the Holocaust has almost subsided, and there are more pedestrians on the road, but there are not a few old faces, all strangers, either wandering from somewhere else or new players entering World of Warcraft.
Material shop.
The decoration of the shop is simple and simple, there are many goods, and the shelves are almost piled up, there are all kinds of things, there are everything, animal skins, hair, horns, bones, nails, unknown bark, roots, leaves, seeds, red stones, white earth, pet eggs, iron nails, ropes, paper, pepper, soybeans, jade, shells...... Some materials are unheard of and unseen, Liu Wei'an looked at them from shelf to shelf, but most of them did not recognize.
"Hello, what do you need?" The shopkeeper appeared, a smile on his face. Before the massacre, there was a lot of people, and Liu Wei'an couldn't enjoy one-on-one service, but in the past few days, there were two or three kittens in the store, and the attitude of the store guys was particularly enthusiastic.
"Cinnabar and brushes, are there?"
"Yes." The shopkeeper immediately replied, skilled in business, and stretched out his fingers, "This way, please!" ”
Walking a few steps inside, Liu Wei'an saw a large bucket of red powder, cinnabar, in the corner.
Cinnabar, also known as cinnabar, dansha, red dan, mercury sand, is a natural ore grinding, bright red, with metallic luster. Sandwiched with realgar, apatite and asphaltene. Cinnabar has the effects of sedation, hypnosis, detoxification and antiseptic, sterilization and insect control. However, the main role is to draw symbols.
The high-quality cinnabar can remain unfading for thousands of years, bright red as blood, and bright luster. However, Liu Wei'an can't tell what is superior and what is inferior, and there is only one kind of cinnabar here, so he can't pick it if he wants to. Weighing a catty, it is scary, 100 copper plates a tael.
"We have a full range of brushes here, including wolf pen, rabbit pen, mouse pen, fetal pen—"
"Get me 10 bristle pens." Liu Wei'an interrupted the introduction of the shop guy. If you are a master of calligraphy, it is chic to buy a wolf hair and rabbit hair, and he is a novice who is just starting out, and a bristle pen is enough.
It's not that the bristle pen is cheap, but the bristle pen is hard, not as soft as other brushes, Liu Wei'an hasn't even touched the brush a few times, if you take a brush with a lot of softness, the ghost knows what it will look like.
Drawing talismans is a very sacred thing, you must clean your hands, purify your body, meditate, bathe, dress up, put incense halls, worship the heavenly master, etc., after a series of complex and solemn procedures can be carried out, Liu Wei'an is just getting started, no one teaches, and he only masters a charm, and it is the simplest disintegration talisman, so everything is simple.
found an inn, opened a room, Liu Wei'an took out fifty arrows, reconciled cinnabar with rooster blood, and began to concentrate on drawing talismans.
Having professional tools is different, drawing is much smoother, and it is not with your own blood, and it is much more comfortable to smell.
In less than three minutes, the spell was completed, the yellow mangs flashed, and the spell disappeared into the body of the arrow, leaving only untraceable traces.
Good signs.
The second and third teams were all successful, in one go, three in a row, this was the result of a few hours in the morning, Liu Wei'an was happy, and the fourth team failed.
Liu Wei'an wasn't sure if it was because of his lack of skill or what was going on, and after failing once, the arrow couldn't draw a second time.
The fifth, failed, the sixth succeeded......
An hour later, Liu Wei'an successfully drew a corpse removal charm on the thirteen arrows, failed seven times, and then, no matter how attentive he was, he couldn't draw the talisman, just like in the morning, to a certain limit.
I can only draw 10 times in the morning, but now I can draw 20 times, I don't know if it's because my proficiency has increased or because I have the tools at hand. When I put things away, I found that there was too much cinnabar, and I poured half of it out and two of it, and one-third of it was not used, and I felt distressed for a while.
Out of the room, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, so I ordered two small dishes at the inn, and ate a meal beautifully.
In the afternoon, I went to a small forest, it is worth mentioning that the two uncles of the black cow, because of the remoteness, usually no one comes to this place, they actually escaped the storm of the massacre, these days have been making arrows, when Liu Wei'an went, he saw a mountain of arrows, and thought that there was only a cubic meter of space ring, and he was quite proud before, but now he found that it was too small, and poured out all the rotting corpse nails, walking corpse nails and zombie nails inside, and left with half a cubic arrow.
Before leaving, I told the two uncles that the arrows made were still hidden and safed, just in case, if a player accidentally broke in, wouldn't it be taken away. As for the arrows,,It's still going to continue to be made.,Although this kind of arrow can't kill zombies.,But he doesn't stay in the cemetery all his life.,The monsters in the cemetery are killed.,Still have to come out.,Kill other monsters in the future.,Just use it.。
It took more than three hours, shooting more than 200 walking corpses, more than 100 rotting corpses, thirteen zombies, and when it was over, three more zombies appeared, which frightened Liu Wei'an and fled, and waited for an hour to wait until the zombies left and picked up the corpses.
