At first, I thought that Master's refusal to deal with the zombies was a fight with Shengyu Po, but I soon found out that this was not the case, because his expression was painful and complicated.

On the day of his apprenticeship, he told me to do more good deeds, and now many innocent people are suffering, but he can't make a move. Not long ago, he told me not to meet with the woman's family, and with his temperament, he would never ignore the villagers' requests because of his anger with Shengyupo.

It suddenly occurred to me that his health was not good, tuberculosis had been an old problem for more than ten years, and he vomited blood twice a few days ago in order to save me, maybe he was really powerless.

After a while, someone came to knock on the door, saying that mirrors, brooms, books, glutinous rice, etc. had no effect, and the ink fountain line could not stop them, so they begged Mr. Zhou to help. Master said: "If you can't beat it, hide and close the door tightly, and the bitten person can apply glutinous rice to the wound to pull out the poison, and then burn the wound with wormwood." When the morning dawned, the zombies would run away and hide in a dark place, then they would follow behind, pile dry wood on all sides, and pour some gasoline on it and burn it. ”

The people who came to ask for help were very depressed and angry, and some of them even scolded my master, scolding my master for being a coward, having no eggs, etc., but the master just wouldn't open the door. He saw that I was a little breathless, and sighed: "I'm almost a waste, and you haven't learned yet, so we don't care about anything at the moment, let alone fight with others, learning skills is the last word." People who are not right-minded will inevitably harm others and themselves. ”

Lao Lin couldn't stand it anymore: "That old prostitute doesn't care if she gets into trouble, you can't leave it alone, I don't believe you won't be able to deal with even a zombie!" ”

The master was very calm at this time, and said lightly: "Things are far more complicated than you think, and I have my own sense of what to do." ”

There were still people chirping outside the door, and I was also angry, yelling: "Quarrel, my master and I were besieged by hooligans yesterday, did you come forward?" You can all see death and not save you, why should my master send you to death for you? Didn't Sheng Yupo have a fairy possession, and Weishenme didn't invite her? ”

Being scolded by me like this, no one dares to be verbose anymore.

What exactly is Master worried about? I suddenly thought of the words of the Blood Mist Shroud Village and the genius madman in my dream, could it be that all this is connected? The king is angry, and the king wants to eat people......

I suddenly asked, "Master, what is the 'Great King'?" ”

Master looked at me with strange eyes: "You are a teacher, will you not know?" ”

I told the strange dream and the words of the madman in the early hours of the day before yesterday, and Master's face became even more gloomy: "You have watched "Journey to the West", many spirits like to call themselves kings; Some small gods and evil gods in broken temples also like to be called kings; Every village and town of size and age has a patron deity called the blessed lord or the king......"

My mom looked horrified and asked, "Could it be that we really borrowed the bronze bell......?"

The master immediately said: "Don't listen to Sheng Yupo's nonsense, and the words of crazy people should not be accurate, there is absolutely no problem in borrowing the bronze bell, and this matter will be discussed tomorrow." Xuan Ming, if you can't sleep, I'll give you a lecture. ”

I was sweating profusely, the zombies outside were chasing people all over the village, and the whole village was jumping with chickens and dogs, and he was actually in the mood to give me a lecture? In such a race against time, he won't have a few days to live, right?

Master asked, "Do you know how to write calligraphy?" ”

"Yes, the school has a calligraphy class, and I won the first prize in the school's soft pen competition." I'm a little bit proud and I'm expressing my level at the same time.

"Good, good!" The master nodded, obviously relieved, "Although drawing talismans is a little different from writing, holding a pen is the same, and when writing, you need to be confident, concentrated, and penetrate the back of the paper, all in one go." You have this foundation, and you have no problem drawing runes, mainly in terms of tricks, footwork, spells, and knots. Before learning to draw talismans, we must first talk about the preparatory work, and there are 'ten taboos and eight precepts', 'three or five forbidden laws' and ......"

I couldn't help but interrupt him: "Master, didn't you say that as long as your spiritual power is strong enough, a fart can also deter the demons, and a few casual strokes can also subdue the dragon and subdue the tiger?" ”

The master was stunned for a moment, and immediately quibbled: "I mean that people with a high level of cultivation can use simple talismans and spells at will, for example, a person with the strength of a hundred catties can easily lift a weight of ten catties, and a person with the strength of a thousand catties can easily lift a weight of a hundred catties. Now you don't have a high level of cultivation, and the simplest talisman must be drawn honestly, and not a single step is missing. ”

I was speechless, being a master is having this privilege, he said that what is round is round, and what he said is square is square.

Then Master told me the precepts, the ten taboos are not to be greedy for money, blasphemous, killing for no reason, lustful and drunk, and so on. The eight taboos are to avoid women's scriptures, avoid seeing color and temptation, do clouds and rain in the name of making symbols, and avoid drawing talismans for non-villains......

Master said, "These taboos have been passed down from generation to generation, and there is always some truth. Let's talk about the topic just now, if it is some ordinary talismans, such as hemostatic talismans, bone-turning talismans, analgesic talismans, etc., as long as you concentrate on drawing them, those with high cultivation can directly draw talismans in the void. If it is a higher level of talismans such as summoning gods and serving ghosts, warding off evil spirits and dispersing pestilence, etc., before drawing talismans, you should fast, bathe your body, purify your mouth, prepare offerings, burn incense, pray and worship, and recite purification mantras, pen mantras, paper mantras, etc. When drawing talismans, you should think about luck, concentrate your thoughts, recite mantras in your mouth, step on your feet, and pinch the trick with your left hand. After the painting is finished, it is necessary to 'knot', what is the knot, what is the curse, what is the spell, and it cannot be messed around, 'the knife is not fast, and the charm is not evil'. If it's a more advanced rune......"

Master stopped at this point, and after not speaking for a long time, I asked, "What about the more advanced talismans?" ”

"More advanced talismans need to invite ghosts and gods to come up, but such talismans are basically lost, I can't teach you, don't talk about it."

I was studying modern knowledge, and I subconsciously didn't believe in these things that the gods were chattering, and I couldn't help but ask: "Is it so troublesome to draw high-level talismans in weishenme?" How does the talisman work, and I mean, is there any scientific basis for it? ”

Master shook his head and smiled bitterly: "In the past, I really didn't doubt these things, and I couldn't answer them, but I can try to explain them now." Now science has proved that there are magnetic fields, force fields, aura and the like, some are beneficial to the human body, some are harmful to the body, and the effect of the rune is to fix the spiritual power of the person who draws the talisman or the spiritual power between heaven and earth on the rune paper to form a magnetic field or aura. It is like a small formation that concentrates, transforms, amplifies, and so on, producing beneficial or harmful results for people, or achieving some kind of great change. ”

I nodded in understanding: "I know, many of the rules for drawing talismans are mainly to make people serious, respectful and sincere, and concentrate on generating positive energy. ”

"The children can be taught!" Master Daxiao was extremely pleased, "Most of the talismans are yang, and what is concentrated is the positive energy you said, while women's menstrual blood and the like are yin, which are extremely filthy and have the qi of death, if they are stained, they may be invalid, so they should be avoided." And the vast majority of immortals like righteous men and gentlemen, so if you want to borrow divine power from the gods, you have to be a righteous gentleman, at least when drawing talismans, you must be sincere and sincere like a righteous gentleman. ”

The messy rules and principles have been talked about for a long time, and finally the official art has begun, starting from the simplest "hemostatic charm".

There are many kinds of hemostatic charms, different factions are different, here is only one that does not need pen and ink cinnabar, simple and easy to learn, no pollution and no backlash, everyone can master the use, home travel must be the method: concentrate, the right hand pinched the sword trick on the paper or cloth to write a traditional horse character, each write a painting to read a branch. Twelve paintings of traditional horse characters, the twelve characters of the earth branch Chouyin Mao Chen Si Wu Wei Shen You Xuhai just finished reading, and then recited the mantra towards himself: a little oil in the east at sunrise, the horse character seals the door and does not bleed, and then press on the bleeding wound and shout to stop.

……

The noisy village gradually calmed down until almost dawn, and in the second half of the night, I had been meditating and practicing qi, and when I finished the exercise at dawn, I found that there was a slight sense of breath in the qi sea cave. This surprised me, Master said that it would take at least a few months to have a sense of qi, am I a genius?

Yang and Yin Jue is different from the vast majority of Daomen exercises, it is not Qi to go Zhou Tian to open up the two veins of Ren Du, but Qi to go through the twelve canons. At the beginning of cultivation, the mind gathers one's own essence in the Qi Sea Acupoint, which is called the natal vitality, and only after gathering a certain amount of natal vitality can one use it as a motivation to collect spiritual energy from outside the body. The collected aura is mixed and impure, and it needs to run along the meridians in the body, refining and purifying, and accumulating for later use.

Natal energy is rarely consumed when casting, and it is difficult to replenish when consumed, and if you use too much, it will directly damage your body and even your lifespan. When casting various spells, the aura is used, and the aura can be recovered quickly by meditating and practicing exercises, taking tonics, etc., and when necessary, it can also be converted into aura with natal vitality, but aura cannot be transformed into natal vitality.

When I told Master that I had a sense of qi, he said with certainty, "This is an illusion, even if you are a genius, it will take more than a month to have a sense of qi, and it is impossible to feel it in three days." Go, hang out with me. ”

Well, if I'm too anxious to have a delusion, I follow him out. There had already been a crowd of people gathered at the door of the neighbor's house, and everyone had a look of horror on their faces, and when they saw the two of us coming, they immediately shut up and did not speak, and looked at me with hatred, as if I had caused everything last night.

The master walked over with a calm expression: "How is it?" ”

The name of the son of the old man who deceived the corpse is Xu Jianmao, although he was very angry that my master "didn't save him when he saw death" last night, he didn't dare to offend him, and said with red eyes and a hoarse voice: "I can't catch up when I run outside the village, I don't know where I ran to." ”

Master let out an "um" and asked, "How many people are injured?" ”

"Maybe six, right?" Xu Jianmao pinched his fingers and counted them, basically they were all old people who couldn't run fast.

"Sir, what now?" Xu Jianmao was about to kneel down and kowtow, he scratched and bit someone, and he had to bear the consequences, if someone was infected and poisoned, his trouble would be even greater.

My master said, "First of all, I would like to state that I am not not helping in this matter, but that I should not bear it, ahem...... Your family is also a victim, since you asked me, I can't help but point out: go find it now, its ability has decreased during the day, it doesn't dare to appear under the sun, and if it is blocked, it can be burned with fire, if it is not solved during the day, there will be more trouble tonight! ”

Xu Jianmao agreed again and again, hurriedly called relatives and friends to find it, and asked the village leaders to mobilize the masses to help. He is not stupid, he heard the master's voice, but he can't ask Sheng Yupo for guilt without evidence, but he definitely wants to put pressure on her.

I followed Master out, and there were groups of people talking about me everywhere, both afraid and hateful, but some of Master's relatives and "fans" took the initiative to ask for advice, and told all kinds of rumors that it was said that when the corpse was scammed last night, Sheng Yupo suddenly fainted at home and is still lying in bed...... It seems that she has harmed me and has been counterattacked.

My master didn't make a comment, and took me to the crested hall outside the village, and as soon as I arrived at the door, I saw seven or eight old people rushing out of the temple screaming.
