Chapter 56: Learning Never Ends
"Master, tell me, how can I help the pumpkin?" I asked.
My master Ma Hongji smiled knowingly and said lightly, "It's the time!" ... When the time comes, you can help him. And if the time is not right, you help him, but it may be counterproductive. ”
I don't understand what my master Ma Hongji meant by "timing", it feels quite mysterious.
So I asked Pumpkin, "Pumpkin, what is your obsession in your heart?" Tell me about it. ”
But before the pumpkin could speak, my master Ma Hongji glanced at me and interrupted, "Don't say it!" Didn't I just say that you can help him when the time comes. And if he reveals the obsession in his heart to you, with your kid's character, he will definitely think about helping him all the time. This is not good, not only will it affect the timing of what I say, but it may also sink you into it. ”
The pumpkin lowered her head and said nothing.
But I can feel from the words of my master Ma Hongji that the obsession in Pumpkin's heart must come from a small thing. And he wanted to learn the Tao from my master, but maybe this "not small thing" was related to ghosts and the like.
That's what I came up with.
"Okay, Yuyang, you don't have to rack your brains to know what your friend Zhao Liangcai's obsession is, just follow the trend. The two of you have opposite fates, but they do come together. And this intersection is the biggest opportunity. ”
Well, as mysterious as it sounds, you can only listen to my master.
"Zhao Liangcai, if it's okay, you can go back to school first, I will teach the Taoism of the Yuyang Lushan Sect well these days, don't disturb us." If he wants to be able to help you, Yuyang must have a certain ability. With his current ability, it is not enough. ”
Pumpkin nodded, threw a grateful glance at me, and said, "Brother Qin, then I'll go." ”
With that, he walked towards the door with a slight disappointment on his face.
I jerked at Pumpkin, "Pumpkin, you wait." ”
When the pumpkin turned around, I could clearly see that his eyes were already red, and it seemed that he was about to cry again.
I let out a sigh of relief and comforted him, "Don't worry, your business is my Qin Yuyang's business, and I will help you." Don't worry, when the time comes, let's unravel the obsession in your heart together. ”
The pumpkin couldn't hold back after all, and tears poured out of her eyes.
He walked up to me and gave me a big hug: "Thank you, Brother Qin, you are my good brother Zhao Liangcai for life." ”
I reached out and patted him on the shoulder.
Looking at the appearance of the pumpkin, I still felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.
Soon, the pumpkin left room 202.
My master, on the other hand, did not care about me, and picked up the lunch box by himself, ate the food, and feasted on it. Because I knew that my master Ma Hongji didn't eat meat when he was ordinary, I didn't buy meat dishes, they were all very ordinary dishes.
I leaned over with a smile on my face and said, "Master, you eat first, I'm not hungry yet, I'll sleep later." ”
But Ma Hongji slapped the chopsticks on the top of the cabinet, glared and said, "What are you sleeping!" Industry is good at diligence, and it is ridiculous to play ...... I don't have much time left here, and I still have to clean up our traitor Jia Xuelin of the Three Mountains Sect, as well as find the Yin Yang Scripture of the Spiritual Weapon, so I don't have much time to waste here. ”
"From today onwards, we will sleep during the day and practice drawing talismans at night. I will try to let you cultivate your mana as soon as possible, and I will also teach you the basic rituals and methods of exorcising ghosts and monsters on the yellow booklet. Don't be playful, you kid, study hard. ”
"Otherwise, when the time comes, you don't have the ability, and you can't help that Zhao Liangcai."
Belch!
Well, my master Ma Hongji has said it to this point, even if it is not for myself, I have to fight for the pumpkin.
So with my master Ma Hongji, I also ate a little food.
After eating, my master took out the yellow sheet paper and cinnabar water from his cloth bag.
The "cinnabar water" is not only cinnabar, but my master told me that black dog blood and rootless water are also added to it, so that when the ghost is exorcized, the yellow charm can show the greatest power.
There is also the drawing of yellow runes, not only cinnabar water and brushes, if you are a Taoist priest with high mana, you can use mana to draw runes out of thin air.
But this method is still more mana-intensive. Therefore, for me, a beginner who has no mana, it is the most correct choice to draw yellow symbols on the yellow table paper.
Then there is the drawing of runes, which requires concentration and concentration. In one word, the heart is like stopping water. When drawing talismans, you need to get rid of all distractions and do it in one go.
The runes are coherent, and there can be no break in the middle.
Once a rune is broken, the entire yellow rune will have no effect. This is equivalent to the series connection of the circuit, if there is a disconnection in the middle, the current will not flow in the line.
The principle is the same.
My master told me a lot of the basics of drawing yellow symbols, but it sounded simple, and when it came time to draw them, I was a little confused.
The first yellow talisman he taught me to draw was the Fire Talisman.
To put it simply, as long as the fire talisman is drawn and does not need to be activated by mana, it will show its own power. Of course, you have to go with the mantra.
There are quite a few talismans similar to the Fire Talisman, but they are much less powerful than using mana to induce Yellow Talismans.
Watching my master sprinkle and draw a fire talisman in one go, I felt envious in my heart.
But when it was my turn, my arms trembled as I stared at the intricate runes.
"What are you shaking! ... Hold the brush well, this hasn't allowed you to fight ghosts alone, just draw a yellow charm and you'll shake, you're still a little out of ......"
My master, Ma Hongji, did not hesitate to "ridicule" me and criticized me all the time.
It's an embarrassment in my heart.
"Master, I'm just a little nervous! It seems impossible to concentrate. I said with a wry smile.
Unexpectedly, my master Ma Hongji sat on the edge of the bed and said to me, "Since you are nervous, then you should first tie up the horse for two hours!" ”
Belch!
Don't! Zamabu is tiring enough.
In a hurry, I said, "Don't don't...... Master, I'm not nervous anymore. I'm not nervous, don't worry, I'm sure I'll study hard. ”
But the more I said that I wasn't nervous, the more nervous I became. I took the fire talisman handed to me by my master Ma Hongji, and compared it with the rune patterns on it, I began to simulate it.
However, just after drawing a little rune, the lines on it will break.
I had no choice but to replace it with a piece of yellow sheet paper.
After trying seven or eight sheets of yellow paper, my hands were not shaking. But halfway through the drawing, it seems like it's out of my control, and it always breaks.
My master's eyebrows were locked, and he said unhappily: "Stinky boy, let you concentrate, why don't you concentrate." Only when you concentrate and work with your heart can you easily draw runes. The runes of this fire talisman are the simplest of them, and it would be too stupid if you couldn't even draw them. ”
I was told by my master that I was angry in my heart, but I could only endure it.
After two days and more than 100 sheets of yellow paper, I was finally able to draw the fire talisman.
But the speed at which I draw a fire talisman is pitifully slow. This made my master Ma Hongji even more angry.
You must know that according to him, each of the yellow sheet paper used to draw runes is expensive.
He told me that if I bought yellow paper at the ghost market, it would cost fifty yuan a piece. And I spent more than a hundred, which is not more than 5,000 yuan.
In two days, 5,000 yuan was wasted, and there was no one left.
"No, it's still too slow! ... Keep practicing for me. My master Ma Hongji urged.
I could only lie on the round table I bought and continue to draw the runes of the fire talisman.
However, I have to mention that during this period, my master also taught me the method of cultivating the Tiangang Decision. This also made me know that although the Tiangang Qi absorbed by Tiangang Decision is blended with the air, the source of the real Tiangang Qi is everything in the world.
According to my master, Ma Hongji, everything has a spirituality.
And this so-called "spirituality" is the source of Tiangang's qi.
Tiangang is divided into three realms, the initial realm, the Tongmai realm, and the final Guiyuan realm.
When I saw these three realms, I thought I was practicing a set of martial arts methods.
But this is by no means a martial art, it is the Taoism of the Three Mountains Sect, a branch of our Lushan Sect.
My master, Ma Hongji, is not bad at his Taoism, but he has only only reached the realm of the Pulse Channel. And from the realm, you can see the strength and weakness of a Taoist priest. For example, there is a big difference between the initial realm and the passage realm.
The specific difference is embodied in the mana of a Taoist priest.
There are many more meridians opened up by the Tongmai Realm than in the Initial Realm, which also makes the storage of mana more abundant. And the Tongmai Realm is only a level in the middle.
There is a more advanced one, the Guiyuan Realm, which is even more powerful.
According to my master Ma Hongji, the ancestor of our Three Mountains Sect has reached the realm of returning to the Yuan, and his mana is constant, destroying evil spirits, and he is invincible. The Tianwei altar arranged by the ancestor is even more fearful of even the Lord Hades of the Yin Division.
And the reason why I mentioned "Tiangang Decision" is because in the past two days, I have memorized all the cultivation methods of Tiangang Decision.
I'm sure it won't be long before I'll be able to have a little mana.
Thinking about it, I'm quite happy in my heart.
"What do you think! ... Don't get distracted, hurry up and draw a fire talisman. You'll need to speed up, and it's best to be able to draw this simple talisman in a breath or two. Otherwise, when dealing with ghosts, you are too slow to draw talismans, and before you can finish drawing talismans, the ghosts will take your life. ”
My master Ma Hongji's mouth, although a little sour, but I know that he is also for my good.
So I can only try to draw the fire charm.
Fortunately, on the third day, after my unremitting efforts, I finally shortened the time to draw the fire talisman in half, and drew another fire talisman.
As for the mantra for prompting the talisman, it is not difficult, it is all a few short sentences, as long as it is recited.
And just as I was concentrating on drawing the fire talisman, my mobile phone next to the bed suddenly rang.
Originally, I was concentrating on drawing talismans, but suddenly my phone rang, which scared me into a spirit. Directly, the end of the pen is crooked, and the runes of the fire talisman are abolished and are not connected.
"Who? ... Call me if it's okay! I muttered angrily.
My master glanced at the caller ID on the phone, and said lightly: "It's that little baby Zhao Liangcai!" ”
It turned out to be a pumpkin.
I walked over, grabbed the phone, and picked it up.
Unexpectedly, before I could speak, a man's gloomy voice came from the other side of the phone: "Qin Yuyang, your good brother Zhao Liangcai is in our hands." Tonight, you come to No. 12 Bayun Road alone, and we will wait for you in the building opposite. You can only be alone, if you don't come, or call the police, you just wait to collect Zhao Liangcai's body. ”
