Chapter 46: Prelude to the Tempest
The tiger cat and the little demon haven't seen each other for a long time, and they don't see it, and they pinch it when they meet, and they don't agree with each other, so it's a noisy conversation, but the fat hen is still no match for her sister-in-law, and she is defeated, hanging a war-free card, and shouting stupidly: "Mom, I'm just too tired, adult, too lazy to bother with your little girl, forget it, forget it." ”
The little demon pinched his waist proudly, and said that you are a fat hen, what kind of big-tailed wolf you are, you will anger me, and you will be abducted away, so that you will die in a hurry.
The little demon said this sentence so that the tiger cat suddenly wilted, looked at the little demon hatefully, shook his head, and said, this girl is getting more and more powerful, and no one can really control it in the future.
After some noise, the tiger cat was eating the Longjing tea we brought to it, while listening to us tell it about the encounter at night, nodding from time to time, after it was over, it nodded, saying that in this way, Luo Eighteen should be buried here. Luo Eighteen was buried here, this is a sure thing, but whether he died in the mouth of the true dragon, or died fighting those abyss monsters in that spatial rift, this can only be a mystery.
However, the deceased is gone, although he may be my last life, but as Lu Zuo, I don't have too much thought to find out the roots, so I put it aside and talked about the most fundamental purpose of coming to Dongting Lake this time.
Lord Tiger Cat said: "Ambergris liquid is the condensation of the essence of ancient true dragon flesh and blood, born between the leylines of the earth, and a few will emerge on the surface of the earth, and have long been exhausted by people to explore and collect thousands of years ago. However, this island is in the depths of Dongting Lake, surrounded by dense fog, and the maze is shifting. ”
If you say so, then in the next few days, we may have to visit every inch of this lake island and try to find out the precious and rare ambergris.
Everyone gathered together, except for the fat insects, they were all neat, and the small cabin was very lively, but the miscellaneous hairy trail also began to get busy, ready to take advantage of the quiet time of the night to make some talismans that could be taken out of their hands.
As I said before, this drawing talisman seems simple, but in fact it is quite complicated, just the preparation work needs to put incense on the table, incense, please God, pre-cleanse the body, and clean hands, clean mouth, clean pen, paper, ink inkstone, after all kinds of forgiveness and prayer, take the pen and wave it, spray the water, and then pray, and then bow and send God, all of which are indispensable.
The way of drawing talismans lies in the communication between heaven and earth and the gods, and in honesty - sincerity is spiritual, heaven and earth are moved, faith is clear, and magic is boundless.
Beginners need to go through the above complicated rituals to make themselves engrossed and calm like water, but such as the miscellaneous hair trail can draw talismans in the air, but it does not need to be so complicated, and the material is a bone piece, and it has nothing to do with ordinary paper talismans, just use the carving knife in hand according to the characteristics of this bone, seal carved out the appropriate rune guide groove, and then use cinnabar, animal blood, pure water, gold crushed and many other mixed things, dipped in the talisman pen, the capacity of a stroke, this is the so-called "a little spiritual light is the talisman" in the innate talisman.
There are a lot of secret mysteries and quirky exquisiteness, and there are even secrets inherited from Li Daozi, although the miscellaneous hair trail does not shy away from me, but it also does not explore too much with me, so I don't know much, and look at it with interest for a while, seeing that although he is not disturbed, it is too slow, it is rare for this guy to be so jumpy, he can calm down, and embroider as fine as a little girl, it is really rare.
Miscellaneous Xiaodao was busy and actively preparing for the war, and we didn't want to quarrel with him, so we restrained Duoduo and the little demon, and everyone began to practice cross-legged, and for a while the room was filled with all kinds of atmospheres, and the tides of the Qi field were superimposed, which made people feel excited and magical.
Sitting cross-legged on the wooden bed, just by the window, the crescent moon hung high in the sky, while I closed my eyes and quietly walked the number of Zhou Tian, digesting the monkey brain that was forced to swallow, so that the essence and power contained in it were decomposed for my use.
Carefully calculated, although today's battle is hard, but I also have a lot of gains, aside from the little demon awakening, as far as my personal cultivation is concerned, those monsters that died, the power that escaped from their bodies was attached to my demon witch hand, making it more powerful and more restrained from all kinds of monsters.
In addition, frankly speaking, the monkey encephalopathy is not delicious, but in the end, it can still be written into the Buddhist scriptures and legendary texts, with the operation of Zhou Tian, I can feel that the terrifying force has slowly precipitated in my sea of qi, and it is constantly tempered by the yin and yang fish cyclone, I believe that over time, my strength will definitely go to a higher level.
By then, hey, hey, hey......
There is also the dead man in the cave, as well as the words, will be the dust of the past scene by scene, when Luo 18 fell here, and I magically came here, such a connection, I really dare not think, I just feel that the creation is too many, fate is so magical, everything seems to be predestined.
The practice day is short, the time is in a hurry, there is no word all night, the next morning I woke up, the sky is not bright, the candles in the room are like beans, the bone scum foam on the ground, the faint yellow light shines on the resolute and focused side face of the miscellaneous hair path, a pair of eyes are bright, unaware of the distraction, just staring at the carving knife in his hand, stroke by stroke, is so serious.
There was only a knife in his eyes, only the next rune, and that was his entire world.
I sat up straight, stretched, and asked him, "Didn't sleep all night?" ”
Miscellaneous Xiaodao nodded, and said with an unscanning gaze: "Hmm...... Almost, but I dozed off a few times in between. There are three bone talismans on your left hand, which are engraved with the Falling Banner Spell, the Nine Star God Spell, and the Ghost Killing Spell, you should know how to use it, keep it, use it in a critical moment, and it can also enhance some combat effectiveness. ”
I nodded, picked up the three pieces of white bones that had been removed and were only the size of a baby's palm, and squinted at them, the runes inside were smooth and natural, combined with the strength of the beast bones themselves, full of mysterious power, crystal clear, and chic, like a work of art.
Put away the ape bone talisman, I chatted with him for a few words, and then went out, at this time the lake breeze was blowing, the sky was dawning, and the golden sunlight in the east was gradually born, but it was full of vitality, and it also swept away the haze in my heart.
As I walked to the front deck of the Dragon Hunt, I accidentally ran into the little princess of Ciyuan Pavilion, who was holding a tray with empty tea cups in her hand, and when she saw me, she came over to say good morning. I asked her what she was doing with tea and water so early. Fang Yi yawned, saying that her father, Uncle Liu, and Wei Daochang were observing Xunlongyi in the room, and she was afraid that they would be sleepy all night, so she got up early, boiled some ginseng tea, and gave them to nourish their spirits.
After that, she remembered, and said that when she passed by our room, she saw that the lights inside seemed to have been working all night, did she also stay up late?
I stretched my waist and said that I slept soundly with a snoring heart, Lao Xiao drew a talisman all night, please ghost please God, busy all night, if you still have ginseng tea, leave some for him in a while. Fang Yi said "ouch", she was so distressed that she had to send it over now, I stopped her and said that she was most afraid of disturbing Qingjing, I was fine, if you went, where would he still have the mind?
I said this cleverly, this little girl immediately heard the sound of the strings, and her pretty face flushed, saying yes, his heart will be confused?
This has nothing to do with my half a dime, so I bragged nonsense, saying that of course, he didn't sleep all night, didn't he do it to please your father, so that he could hand in the errand as soon as possible? If you go and his mind wanders, then he will not be able to do any work, and it is still early, so you can rest first, and when he is finished, you will give him a drink.
Fang Yi listened to my words and happily went back to his room to rest, while I subconsciously glanced towards the cabin of the Ciyuan Pavilion Master.
It stands to reason that since everyone is in the same boat, it is natural to be open and honest, and there is no distance between each other, but the matter of the Lord of the Ciyuan Pavilion looking for the dragon has never let us participate, and it is always discussed in the cabin.
But even if I don't ask, I can guess from the attitude of Ciyuan Pavilion towards the bag of ape bones yesterday that they have planned so thoroughly, and they have invited one of the top ten masters in the world, and what they are looking for may not be just that wisp of dragon whiskers. Entering Baoshan and returning empty-handed, the master of Ciyuan Pavilion, who has been stumbling in the mall all year round, should not do such a stupid thing, but he just hides it from us, and even seems to have hidden his own son, which is a little suspicious.
Of course, whether to slay the dragon or not, this has nothing to do with me after all, I pretended not to know, and after greeting the sailor on duty on the bow deck, I took care of myself and used the solid method.
This is a means of stretching muscles and bones, strengthening the body, a set of solid methods down, the sun is born, everyone has gotten up, the miscellaneous hair trail is cleaned up, after drinking ginseng tea, I practiced some fighting skills, and then had breakfast with the people of Ciyuan Pavilion.
At the end, everyone discussed today's affairs together, and decided to divide into two groups of people, one led by a word sword, and together with the Shaodong family, go to meet with the people of Longhu Mountain to negotiate and see if they can reach an agreement; The other team, together with Zamao Xiaodao, Liu Yongxiang, and Shopkeeper Tian, began to search for the dragon's lair.
As for the pavilion master, he still sits in it and guards this retreat for everyone.
The trip was carefully discussed, but when he was about to land on the island in batches by dinghy, news suddenly came from the opposite side: Jiao Zhang, who was stationed on the shore, was missing.
