Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Test of Entry 1
As the saying goes, nothing is light. I don't have any worries now, on the contrary, my heart is full of joy and nervousness about the unknown trial. No one knew what it was, except for Master Fang. I don't know if I can pass it tomorrow.
With this in mind, I quickly fell asleep in bed.
There was no word all night, and it was dawn in the blink of an eye. I didn't need anyone to wake me up, I woke up on my own when the rooster crowed. According to Master Fang's instructions, he hung the wooden sign that had been prepared with 'Rest Day' on the door, and then locked the door. After all, most people will return the same way when they see the wooden sign, but it is not excluded that some people want to break in, so it is better to do it properly.
Anyone who has common sense in life should know that the time when the rooster crows is actually three or four o'clock in the morning. It's summer, and it's getting early in the morning. Looking up at the sky, gray clouds can be seen slowly appearing.
As I mentioned earlier, the back hall of this courtyard is actually just a wooden wall separating it from the lobby. However, the door leading through the lobby to the back hall was covered by a thick black curtain. As a result, the back hall is almost invisible all year round. And here, it is usually the place where Master Fang casts spells on others and asks the gods.
Ruth opened the curtain, and a familiar smell of incense and candles came to my nose, and when I looked at it, Master Fang was indeed waiting for me here.
It seems that Master Fang woke up much earlier than me, and the candles and incense burning on the desk were already half burned.
"Master! I'm coming!"
"Hmmm! You go out first to put incense on the statue of the ancestor and remember, this will be the first thing you do every morning in the future, and when you finish the incense, we will start testing you when you come back. ”
Master Fang glanced at me and instructed me while grinding the cinnabar ink on the table.
"Oh! I remembered! Master!" In response, I immediately set out to the bronze statue of the god on the table of the Eight Immortals above the lobby, picked up the incense that was always prepared on the table, lit it, bowed respectfully to it three times, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.
When I was done, I went back to the inner hall. In just a moment's work, Master Fang's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, and a thick stack of yellow talismans with undried ink had been piled up on the desk.
Seeing my return, Master Fang motioned to me to sit on the wooden floor, and then began to bury his head in his own business.
After waiting for fifteen minutes, Master Fang took a deep breath, "It's finally done!" Shugui, visit these yellow talismans according to the shape behind you, remember, put ten in each direction. ”
"Okay!"
I agreed, picked up the thick yellow talisman on the desk, and turned to look behind me. Just behind where I was sitting, I didn't know how to draw a large circle with a diameter of two meters, and in the center of the circle there was a small circle with a diameter of half a meter. In the middle of the small circle to the large circle, there are 16 straight lines, which are divided into eight cones of equal area, and each cone has eight big characters written on the inside: Qian, Kun, Kan, Li, Zhen, Xun, Gen, and Dui.
Even if I don't understand the Yin and Yang secret technique that Master Fang said, I can see that these eight words are in the gossip. No wonder Master Fang asked me to put the yellow talisman on these words, it turns out that this is what kind of magic circle.
Honestly, every ten yellow symbols are stacked, put on the top of the font, after doing all this, I found that there is not much more yellow symbols in my hand, and there is a lot less than one, it seems that Master Fang has already calculated.
"Master! It's all set!"
I clapped my hands, but alas, the undried cinnabar ink stained with the yellow fu on it was not so easy to shoot.
"Excellent! Shugui, you sit in that small circle, you have to make the Dharma seal in your hand, and close your eyes. Remember, I don't tell you to open your eyes, don't open them, or you will be at your own risk. Do you hear that?"
While Master Fang instructed me to take precautions after entering the magic circle, he made a magic seal on my hand. I know that this is the Dharma seal that taught me to tie it with my hands after entering the circle. Therefore, I did not hesitate to follow the master's hands superimposed, and after a while, a Dharma seal that looked like a decentness appeared on my hands.
Following the master's instructions, I sat cross-legged in the small circle in the middle of the array, folded my hands on the mudras that the master had taught me, and closed my eyes tightly.
Probably out of an inexplicable fear of the unknown, the closed eyelids fluttered uncontrollably. After all, if I can make the master say these precautions so seriously, there may be something in the circle, so the master will let me be like this.
I can't imagine what might happen later, what would happen inside the circle. The master outside the magic circle said loudly: "The tree is expensive! I'm going to open the circle, and you have to remember what I said to you. Remember!"
"Hmm!" I whispered back to the master.
Soon, a scent that was familiar to me and a little unfamiliar came to my nose. Why do I say that? Because my sense of smell tells me that this smell is the unique sandalwood fragrance after the incense is burned, and I have been here for several days in the master's place, and I smell this fragrance all the time every day, so naturally it is familiar and can not be more familiar.
So why do I say that this smell of all the time makes me feel a little unfamiliar? The most important thing is that I don't know what's mixed in this sandalwood scent, but after I smell it, I feel that my brain is extraordinarily clear, and the whole person feels a little light.
At that moment, a voice seemed to burst out of my head.
"Trees are expensive! The circle has been activated, and it all depends on your own creation, remember what I told you. Bai Ze's heirs, the phantom array test the heart, up!"
With the master's 'up', my whole body woke up at once.
Looking at the small circle where he was sitting in the circle, all the furnishings around him were exactly the same as just now, the yellow talismans in the eight directions placed in the array still hadn't moved, and the incense candles on the desk on the side were still burning. Only the master has disappeared and does not know where to go.
"Strange! Didn't the master say that the circle was activated? How is it that this circle is still intact and here? And didn't the master tell me not to let me open my eyes! They also said that opening my eyes would have negative effects, so why did I open my eyes and do nothing?"
As my eyes opened, a series of questions came to me, leaving me confused. What the hell is going on?
"Master! Master! Where are you?"
I stood there and yelled a few words, but unfortunately, there was silence around me, and there was no sign of me. I don't know where the master went, hey, what should I do now?
Since I couldn't figure it out, I had to go out of the back hall and plan to look in the other places in the courtyard to see if there was a master.
As soon as I lifted the thick black curtain, I was startled by the sight in the lobby.
I saw that there were many people in the lobby of only more than 40 square meters at this time, and it was initially estimated that there were at least about twenty or thirty people, and the entire lobby was about to be occupied.
When these people saw me coming out of the back hall, everyone had a bright smile like a chrysanthemum on their anxious faces, and shouted respectfully at me: "Master Liu, you can figure it out!" We've been waiting for you for a long time, so help us!"
"That's right! That's right!" The rest quickly echoed what the previous one had said.
But they fooled me like this, 'Master Liu'? But how can I be respected as a master! I haven't even succeeded in apprenticeship myself!
"Guys, are you mistaken! What should you do to find my master, I'm just an apprentice, where can I be worthy of the honorific title of Master Liu in your mouth, it's really a sin, fortunately the master is not here, otherwise I would have suffered!"
Shook his head slightly, although it feels very good to be called a master, but I still know very well how many catties and taels I have, so I can't do that kind of porcelain work without that skill.
Maybe these people are all famous, and they all know that there is a master in this courtyard, and when they see me coming out of the back hall, they all regard me as my master. This is the only reason that can explain the current situation.
