Chapter 17: The System Descends
In the past few days, Ji Yuan has been in a very bad mood. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Well, pretty bad.
His skill in drawing runes has not improved, and the runes he draws are still ridiculed by Xia Jiuling as a level only for kindergarten children, and he even dislikes ghosts.
"We have to do more! Although the teacher promised to teach me the art of talisman making, and also promised to provide all the talisman resources, if I want to become a time walker, I need to earn the life points I need! ā
Regarding Xia Jiuling's request, Ji Yuan had no opinion, and he was embarrassed to ask for more.
It takes time to draw talismans, and it takes a slow improvement in experience, which is not facilitated overnight, Ji Yuan is very anxious, he is afraid that his parents will not be able to wait that long.
"Ji Yuan, come to buy rune paper again."
Fushou Market, at the door of a rune paper specialty store, a man greeted Ji Yuan with a smile.
"Yes, Uncle Chen, the old price is three bundles, and the money is deducted from the teacher's card," Ji Yuan said with a smile.
"Okay, give it," the man grabbed three stacks of red talismans and handed them to Ji Yuan, "If the nine ghosts come to buy it, I will definitely slaughter him for three or four percent, since it is Xiao Ji, you can forget it, do you really plan to follow that pit goods?" ā
"Well, the teacher taught me a lot," Ji Yuan said with a smile and took the rune paper, "But it's true that the teacher is unreliable." ā
After three days, Xia Jiuling not only didn't teach him any means of making talismans, but also sarcastically said a few words from time to time, saying that his understanding was too poor, it was purely a waste of life, and that mouth was too damaged, if it weren't for Ji Yuanken to sink down and think about Xia Jiuling as air, he would have run away as someone else.
"Okay, okay! 100-year-old silk out of the pot! If you want to buy it, hurry up and line up! ā
Just as Ji Yuan was walking back with the talisman paper, there was a loud shout from the other end of the street.
"100-year-old silk!" He was stunned.
There are several mobile stalls selling 100-year-old silk in the Fushou Bazaar, but most of them are in the depths of the bazaar, and it is rare to encounter them on the periphery.
"This hundred-year-old silk noodles, I heard that it is difficult to make, go over and take a look," Ji Yuan was also curious, and squeezed over.
This hundred-year-old silk silk is actually a kind of longevity noodles, which is said to be silk silk, just because the noodles can flutter in the wind like willow silk silk, so it is named.
Longevity noodles, with the same effect as longevity peaches, you can give longevity when you eat it, but compared to the longevity of longevity peaches, longevity noodles are really low, the highest is only half a year, generally in the hotel as a signature dish, ordinary people are willing to give up some money can also eat.
But the hundred-year-old silk silk is different, its price is far more than ten times that of ordinary longevity noodles, and it is the object of enthusiasm for the years walkers.
Just because it has a peculiar effect, it can cancel out the countdown of life points for a certain period of time, so that the life of the noodle eater remains the same number.
It doesn't seem to be of much use, but it is of great use to the years walker who has reached the age of 100 and is about to break through the thousand-year-old.
The 100-year-old silk is made by a man of age, dressed as a chef, the wheel of years behind him turns, and the power of Shou Yuan continues to flow into the dough with his technique, making the dough have a touch of pale red.
The other party seems to be kneading the dough, but the technique is indeed as exquisite as carving, because it is made of longevity noodles, the noodles cannot be broken, and the evenness must be equal in length, which is a great test of the strength and technique of the noodle maker.
Ji Yuan's gaze fell on the man's ever-changing techniques, and he couldn't help but see it.
Rubbing, kneading, twisting, pressing, squeezing, pulling, pushing...... The pair of hands almost all the movements that could be done with his hands were redundant, he seemed to see a series of butterfly-like ghosts, in the butterfly wings, the changeable dough always remained in a stable shape, and then, an extremely thin line like silk flew in the air, like a spring silkworm spinning silk, in the air through a crystal light, flowing into the cauldron on the side.
This technique......
Ji Yuan's eyes lit up.
It's actually a longevity technique!
For the comprehension of the longevity folding technique, Ji Yuan was already profound and sensitive, and after a closer look, it was easy to fall into it, and the overlapping hand shadows turned into memories that remained in his mind, the kind of constant and eternal realm, as if one inspiration after another, enlightened him again and again.
It's how it feels!
Ji Yuan's eyes lit up, and he only felt that he had suddenly become enlightened, he had been drawing talismans for the past few days, but he had always felt as if he was missing something, but he was caught in the entanglement of talisman making at that time, and he didn't care too much, until today, he watched the production process of the hundred-year-old silk, and then he had an epiphany.
What is missing is the longevity folding technique!
In other words, the ruthlessness in the longevity folding technique is missing!
Drawing talismans looks simple, but the real test is not how exquisite the technology is, no matter how high the person's technology is, it is definitely not comparable to the longevity system, but there is only one thing, which is owned by the life-making craftsman, and the longevity system does not have.
It's ruthless!
If you want to draw a suitable rune paper, you naturally have to think of a way to break your lifespan, and be ruthless to yourself, without the belief that you will be indomitable and give up everything and even your own life, you can't go far on the road of making life.
After figuring this out, Ji Yuan had a good idea, and he didn't go shopping on the street, so he immediately went back to the shop and drew talismans!
ā¦ā¦
"This kid, why did you draw it again," Seeing that Ji Yuan didn't say a word, and sat down to draw talismans as soon as he came back, Xia Jiuling wondered, he just saw that Ji Yuan was too persistent and too hardworking, so he ordered him to go to the street to relax, but he didn't expect the latter to go out and come back after a while.
"Forget it, just paint, what should be yours is yours, it's up to you how far you can go," he shook his head, and didn't dissuade the apprentice much.
On the other side, Ji Yuan was engrossed, and at the same time, he kept hinting at himself in his heart.
Vicious! Be cruel to yourself!
Even with him, there was a kind of "leave everything behind and let it go" in his eyes.
Isn't it fatal, just give it to you!
Staring at the rune paper, he started to use the technique and concept of folding longevity.
The first stroke, the hand is very steady, and the power of Shouyuan flows thinly.
Folded Shou!
Fold my life!
Fold my life! Lives to you!
"-1 year!"
"-1 year!"
"-1 year!"
ā-1ā¦ā¦ā
Ji Yuan's eyes were bright, he felt that he had found the right feeling, and he didn't even need to look at it, he knew that the reduction of life points was very stable.
The runes that are like a labyrinth are flat and stable, and the strokes are continuous, like a pot of hundred-year-old silk.
In this process, the Shou Tao rune paper is also undergoing subtle changes, as if it is not the ethereal and difficult power of Shou Yuan that falls on the paper, but the bricks and tiles that can be seen and touched, and a miniature labyrinth is built on it.
That's how it feels! Don't think about anything, go forward, abandon everything!
It's so comfortable, it's so enjoyable!
"Hmm!"
Although Xia Jiuling was doing his own work, most of his mind had actually been paying attention to Ji Yuan, and at this moment he also noticed that something was wrong with him, his eyes glanced at random, and when he saw the fine runes that were printed out, his eyes immediately widened: "This kid, is it really going to succeed?" ā
Originally, according to his estimate, it would take at least a week or two for Ji Yuan to become proficient, and if his comprehension was slow enough, it would be possible to practice for a few months or a few years.
"I didn't even teach him the tricks of drawing talismans, I originally wanted to expose him, and wait for him to beg me to teach him again," Xia Jiuling muttered, feeling that the apprentice was too smart, and he was not good as a teacher, so he was slightly unhappy in his heart, and got up and came to Ji Yuan's side, going around and around for a while, "This kid ...... Steady, even the folding life skills have been used! He really groped it out. ā
Ji Yuan completely ignored Xia Jiuling's fragmented thoughts, and at this moment his whole mind was on the longevity talisman that was about to be completed.
Only a few furrows are left to return, and the entire miniature longevity maze pattern is completed.
"The last stroke!"
He hooked his fingers, and the whole rune finally became a whole, but on the palm-sized rune paper, it seemed that there really existed a miniature complex labyrinth, in which the power of Shouyuan was trapped, forming a special magnetic field, making the rune paper, which originally had no special features, seemed to have spirituality, and the quality had risen to a higher level.
Call!
Then, the plane maze disappeared completely, and in its place, the word "longevity" appeared on the red symbol.
Ji Yuan smiled slightly.
Longevity charm, success!
Rumble!
But before he could relax, almost at the moment when the rune paper was made, Ji Yuan's whole body trembled violently, trembling from the depths of his soul.
"Here," Seeing this, Xia Jiuling smiled slightly.
In the dark, Ji Yuan seemed to feel that there was an incomparably magnificent behemoth, breaking through many obstacles, casting his eyes on his body, and even the surrounding space, as if he was imprisoned.
Ji Yuan knew that the longevity system had come.
For a moment, his consciousness seemed to travel thousands of miles, and at this time he was obviously still in the repair shop, but when he raised his head, the ceiling disappeared, and an illusory space appeared.
The illusory space was foggy, the clouds were overturned, and only some rays of light broke through the clouds, forming an endless aurora above Ji Yuan's head, and the aurora rippled, like a huge and deep corridor.
Ji Yuan was shocked, this aurora corridor was exactly the same as a certain part of the longevity rune he had drawn.
More aurora lights were still falling, spreading across the sky.
Sky!
After looking at it for a while, Ji Yuan finally reacted, and exclaimed in his heart, this aurora covering the entire sky was actually an unimaginable longevity rune!
Ji Yuan was shocked, and couldn't tell whether it was in reality or illusory at the moment.
The light in his eyes that made him tremble before came from behind the aurora, above the layers of clouds and mist.
I can't imagine how magnificent the body of the Wanshou system is, just a ray of light leaking from it, and the aurora projection formed in the air shocked him.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Yuan was stunned, and a vague idea came into his mind, although there was no verbal communication, he instantly understood that the system was asking for his opinion, whether he was willing to become a life-making craftsman.
As long as the talisman is successful, it is equivalent to drawing up a contract with Wanshou Company, since there is a contract, there are naturally benefits.
The longevity system will be the first to come, giving the Craftsman a life-making talisman paper that will exist forever unless he dies.
As long as Ji Yuan nodded, the life-making talisman paper immediately condensed.
It's just that at this moment, he was a little hesitant.
"Once you become a life-making craftsman, you are destined to live and die in this life, and the road ahead, although broader, is also extremely difficult."
On the first day Ji Yuan met Xia Jiuling, the latter said to him that the heavy responsibility of the life-making craftsman was much heavier than that of the years walker.
In the sky, the aurora was rippling quietly, as if waiting for Ji Yuan's answer.
Half an hour later.
Fight!
Hardly thinking about it, Ji Yuan gritted his teeth, and his eyes burst out with unprecedented brilliance: "I am willing!" ā
The pinprick feeling in Rumang's back suddenly receded, and he seemed to be satisfied with Ji Yuan's answer, and the invisible gaze from behind the clouds also softened a little.
Immediately after, the entire illusory space brightened, and the endless aurora actually fell towards him.
