Chapter 39: Drawing Symbols
Fifteen tricks of ghosts, learning one move, is also unlimited. I said happily, one move is fine, but which one to learn? Zhong Ling'er asked me to choose by myself, and I looked at her in surprise and asked, "Do you know all these tricks?" Zhong Ling'er said lightly: "I know a little bit about it." I was surprised and asked her how she knew so much, but she didn't answer me directly, but explained to me: "These fifteen tricks of ghost art are yin and evil, so you can't learn more." ”
I see.
I said that since you know these fifteen tricks, then you are still afraid that you will not be able to subdue the Water Saint? Zhong Ling'er said, in fact, she only knows how to use these fifteen ghost tricks, but whether they are useful or not, she doesn't know, because she has never tried it, so she can teach me to try one trick and try it. I asked her how she knew these fifteen tricks, Zhong Ling'er told the truth, it turned out that a few years ago there was a Taoist priest who came to visit her and loved her very much, Zhong Ling'er accidentally saw a similar manuscript, and felt very curious, the Taoist priest asked her if she wanted to learn, she didn't want to learn, but the ghost made her god, she actually nodded. The Taoist priest was very happy and taught her all these fifteen tricks, but before she could fully learn them, she was known by Li Shenpo, who was furious, and not only reprimanded Zhong Ling'er fiercely, but also drove the Taoist priest away. She had never seen the Taoist priest since.
It turned out that there was a master who taught it, so these fifteen tricks of ghost art must be true, I was very excited, and I couldn't wait to ask Zhong Ling'er to teach me quickly, but Zhong Ling'er said: "Before I teach you, you answer me honestly a question." I asked her something, and she stared at me and asked, "Who the hell is the witch doctor between you and your friend?" ”
I was stunned for a while, and asked her why she asked, and how she learned that one of us was a witch doctor, and did we have the aura of a witch doctor?
Zhong Ling'er said: "You only answer who it is." ”
I said we're nobody.
"Really?" Zhong Ling'er obviously didn't believe it. I said don't be grinding, teach me ghost arts, before the arrival of the Water Saint, we also have a winning move, otherwise our lives will be lost. Zhong Ling'er said unhurriedly: "If you are not honest, I can't teach you, this ghost art is extremely evil, and if there is a mistake, it will go mad and cause trouble." ”
I really can't stand her ink, I said okay, I'll tell you the truth, I'm really not a witch doctor, neither is my friend, I just have yin and yang eyes to see ghosts.
"Sure enough." Zhong Ling'er asked again: "Where do your yin and yang eyes come from?" "I said I don't know, after I married that Wu Lele, I can see the hell. Zhong Ling'er thought for a moment and said that Wu Lele was already dead, and after marrying me, he was actually alive, and Mrs. Li was also surprised by this matter, but she went out before she investigated the matter.
I was shocked, could it be that Wu Lele really died? So how did she come back from the dead? Could it be that after sleeping with me, a strange man like no other, he came back from the underworld?
It's a bit of a fantasy.
"Maybe Wu Lele isn't dead," I guessed, "Could it be that your mother is wrong?" Wu Lele said with certainty that her mother would never be mistaken. I don't want to dwell on this matter anymore, so let's say okay, don't worry about that Wu Lele, let's talk about our business, when will you teach me ghost arts? Zhong Ling'er told me to choose a move by myself.
I took out the book, and read the fifteen ghost tricks again, Zhong Ling'er said that these tricks are yin to evil, because they need blood, and there is a trick that does not use blood, that is, the third trick, the third trick, the ghost mastery, the use of spirit runes to ban ghosts for their own use, I think instead of killing ghosts, it is better to collect ghosts, I heard that many people raise ghosts, such as those rich and celebrities, once they have ghosts, they will make money every day and become famous all over the world, although I don't raise ghosts, but if I subdue the ghosts and let the ghosts obey my orders, then wouldn't it be more enjoyable not to kill ghosts?
So, I said I wanted to learn how to harness ghosts.
Zhong Linger said okay, just learn this trick. The prop for this move is a spirit rune, so I have to learn how to draw a rune first.
There is a certain procedure for drawing symbols, and it is never possible to do things simply and reverse the order.
From a general point of view, the altar must be set up for the painting of symbols, especially for Taoist priests, there is a so-called "general altar style". The general mantra in the general altar style is written with the gods that Taoist priests usually believe in - the land, the city god, the Eastern Blue Emperor, the Southern Red Emperor, the Western White Emperor, the Northern Black Emperor, the Vermilion Bird General, the Xuanwu General, the Black Killing General, etc.
There are also those that do not have a "general altar style" or an altar, such as "please immortal method" and so on.
Before drawing the talisman, one should first purify one's mind - concentrate, be sincere, clear of distracting thoughts, concentrate on one's mind, and purify one's body, face, hands, and mouth, and prepare offerings such as fruits, rice wine, incense and candles, as well as pen and ink, cinnabar, yellow paper, etc. For these supplies, the Taoist priest first used a divine spell to make it have divine power).
There are five types of mantras, namely: pen spells, water spells, inkstone spells, ink spells and cinnabar spells.
Before drawing the talisman, it is necessary to offer incense and bow down, bless the gods of heaven and earth, and express the main prayer. After the congratulations, take out the paper, ink or cinnabar, sit upright, think about luck, and draw the talisman in one go, without any interruption in between. When drawing a talisman, blow into the talisman and gently recite the mantra with your mouth while drawing. In addition, the left hand that does not hold the pen should make gestures such as the Rijun Jue, the Moon Jun Jue, and the Tiangang Jue that are necessary when writing calligraphy.
There are generally regulations on the materials used to draw the symbols; Draw symbols must use ink or cinnabar, especially cinnabar. The reason why cinnabar is used more is that the ancients thought that cinnabar had the effect of suppressing evil. The carrier of the talisman is mostly peach board, because in ancient times, it was thought that peach wood had a strong divine power to drive away demons. Secondly, there are cypress boards, jujube boards, stones, bricks and yellow paper. In addition, the use of cloth and silk is also widespread.
Zhong Ling'er was like a book, and she said a lot, and I was stunned when I heard it, but I was afraid that it would be dark if she continued to talk like this, so I interrupted her and said I saw those Taoist priests in the movie, didn't they bite their fingers and draw the talisman on the yellow paper, didn't it come out? How can there be so many famous halls?
"A movie is a movie, reality is reality, and a movie has an exaggerated plot, how can it be the same as reality?" Zhong Ling'er was very dissatisfied with my interruption of her words, and I was worried that she would not teach me because of this, so I seemed to have an understanding and said: "I see, I ...... so."
Zhong Ling'er said: "Of course, there are several special ways to draw symbols, one is the tip of the tongue. Tongue notes are different from pen letters. Pen writing is written with a brush, while tongue writing is written directly with the tongue as a pen. The reason why the tip of the tongue is used is because the note written on the tip of the tongue has a strong calming effect. The second is to use his fingers to write imaginary drawings out of thin air. This kind of character is not written on any object, the key is to draw the symbol, so the action requirements are extremely complex and strict. The purpose of this sigil is not to be long-term defensive, but to require immediate effect in an emergency, so the importance of the sigil is far less than that of drawing a sigil. Since there is no need for the rune to exist for a long time, it is enough to draw it with only the air with your finger. ”
This reminds me of the first move, the ghost killing technique, isn't it just to draw talismans in the air? Busy said: "This method of drawing talismans is very good, you can teach me this trick." ”
Zhong Ling'er said that she wouldn't do this trick either.
Therefore, I had to draw cinnabar water on paper with a pen.
According to Zhong Ling'er's show, I first drew on the white paper, and then painted on the yellow paper when I was proficient, and then painted on the yellow paper, I don't know how long I painted, and finally found a trace of feeling, seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Zhong Ling'er said, drawing talismans is not something that can be learned in a day, so today is over, after speaking, he took out a talisman and handed it to me and said: "You put this talisman on your body, in case the water saint son really comes, you can use this talisman to try." ”
I took the spell, and the boss in my heart was not happy, I drew so much, and I had to use yours in the end, I was so depressed!
But depressed to depressed, I have to ask some questions, I said that the water saint son is extremely fast, but I am afraid that my talisman will not be able to stick to him, Zhong Ling'er said: "So, your speed has to be faster than him, and this talisman is not only on him, you also have to recite a spell." "Saying that, he taught me another trick of the ghost spell, telling me to memorize it by heart, otherwise there is no ghost spell, and it is useless to have an empty charm. I said that this ghost spell is easy to remember, the key is the speed, the water saint is like an arrow, and he slipped in front of him with a snort, and this charm is completely unattachable to him. Zhong Ling'er said: "In this case, you have to improve your speed and reflexes. Then he looked out of the house and said, "All right, it's getting dark, go back." ”
I sighed softly, since it was dark, you didn't leave me for dinner?
After thanking her, I put away the charm and prepared to go home, just walked to the door, suddenly a gust of wind blew, I couldn't help but shiver, Mom, it's so cold!
It's yin!
