[017] Knife test, drawing talismans is not a dinner party!
There was a delay of nearly an hour, and it was not until three o'clock in the morning that I finally arrived at the house of the little bolt again. It was discovered that Brother Zhou and the mother of the plug had already prepared black dog blood and chicken blood.
In addition, a table was set up in the room, as well as some tools needed to draw talismans, such as yellow table paper and talisman pens.
"Where's the stuff?"
As soon as he arrived, Brother Zhou couldn't help but hurry up and said with an expectant face: "How is it?" Did you get it? ”
"Fortunately, I was not dishonored! Let's see if it works? ”
Nodding affirmatively, I didn't dare to hesitate, put down my shotgun, and quickly took out cinnabar, saltpeter and other things from my pocket.
"Great! Just know you kid has a way! ”
Seeing this, Brother Zhou was immediately pleasantly surprised, and quickly took it, opened it and took a look, but then couldn't help but gasp on the spot: "Hiss-"
"What's wrong?"
I was taken aback by his actions and hurriedly asked, "Isn't it?" Can't any of these things be used? ”
"No, no, no!"
Brother Zhou hurriedly waved his hand, nodded hurriedly and said, "It can be used, it can be used, it can be used!" ”
"This ...... This is simply superb! ”
While speaking, Brother Zhou even danced with some joy, and couldn't help but hurriedly put the cinnabar, saltpeter and other things in his hand on the table one by one, and then pointed to the brightly colored cinnabar on the table and said: "Look at this cinnabar, the color is pure, the color is gorgeous, and it is also pregnant with a layer of rich metallic color!" ”
"If I'm not mistaken, this is definitely the best cinnabar from the old sand bed of the Wanshan mercury mine in Qiandong!"
Then, he pointed to the saltpeter next to him and said: "Look at this saltpeter again, it is absolutely natural, through the kraft paper, I can feel the pure yang qi contained in it!" This is not something that can be produced domestically, eighty percent of it is imported from Chile, and only Chile has such a purity of natural nitrate in the world! ”
"Look at this realgar ...... again"
"Stop! Stop! ”
Looking at Brother Zhou's unfinished face, I couldn't help but quickly interrupt him: "It's almost there, just use it!" It's not too early, so let's hurry up and prepare to draw talismans! ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
After I reminded him like this, Brother Zhou seemed to have just reacted from the "shock" just now, nodded and said, "To be honest, I wasn't sure at all before!" But now that there are so many excellent materials, as long as we can use them properly, I believe we can definitely defeat the mandrill! ”
As soon as the words fell, he couldn't help but hurry up and get busy, and unlike when my master drew talismans, Brother Zhou's process of drawing talismans was extremely cumbersome.
It was burning incense again, and it was bowing three times and nine times to the land of all directions, if it wasn't for the conditions, he even wanted to bathe and change clothes.
And no matter what he does, almost every step, he needs to chant the mantra in advance!
For example, when using water, you need to recite the "Water Mantra"; When using paper, you need to recite the "paper mantra"; Even when holding the pen, you have to recite some "pen mantra". It just annoyed me, and I said that when my master drew talismans, he didn't have as much trouble as him?
I've never eaten pork, and I've always seen pigs run.
Although my master had never allowed me to participate in this before, he never stopped me from watching, and I didn't see him bow three times and bow nine times, and I didn't see him recite any incantations, and didn't he draw the sigil in the end?
Could it be that it is because the rune paper drawn by Brother Zhou is actually more complicated than that drawn by my master?
With such suspicions, my eyes never left Brother Zhou, and when he finally finished reciting the "Clear Pen Mantra", and dipped the talisman pen in the cinnabar ink that had been adjusted, he finally lifted the pen!
At the same time, there were words in his mouth: "The sky is round and the place is round, the nine chapters of the law, I write today, ten thousand ghosts are hidden, and I am as urgent as the law!" ”
As soon as the words fell, he couldn't help but quickly knock on the three links, took a mouthful of water, and suddenly sprayed eastward. Holding his breath and concentrating, almost in one go, the dragon flew like a phoenix, and directly left dense red runes on the yellow table paper!
While drawing the talisman, his mouth was still not idle, so he continued to read: "Hehao Yin and Yang, the sunrise in the east, collect this talisman, sweep away the ominous!" Spit the water of samadhi in the mouth, shine like the light of the sun, catch monsters to make the canopy of the sky, break the disease with the suppression of King Kong, subdue the monsters, turn into auspiciousness, urgent as the law! ”
"Edict!"
With a categorical "edict", Brother Zhou finally completed his first rune paper, and at this time, dense beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead, obviously extremely consumed!
The moment he put away the pen, he even stumbled under his feet, if I hadn't been quick to see and help him in time, he would probably have sat on the ground with his butt a long time ago.
"I'll go!"
I cursed, and I couldn't help but mutter, "Isn't it? It turns out that drawing talismans is so difficult? ”
"Nonsense!"
Brother Zhou gasped heavily, and said angrily: "What do you think? Drawing talismans is not a meal, so naturally there are many taboos! What's more, now is not the best time to draw talismans, so it naturally seems even more troublesome! ”
"But don't worry! As long as you successfully draw the first one, the rest will be easy, and you can watch it with peace of mind! ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but wave his hand at me, signaling me to let go of him first, and continued to draw talismans while picking up his pen, while explaining some knowledge of talismans to me.
According to him, the runes can generally be divided into five grades according to color, namely: gold, silver, purple, blue, and yellow!
Among them, the "Golden Fu" is the highest, the "Silver Fu" is the second, and the "Yellow Fu" is the worst.
Of course, don't underestimate the "Yellow Fu", because even the lowest "Yellow Fu" is not something that anyone can draw!
As Brother Zhou has repeatedly emphasized, drawing talismans is not a dinner party, it has quite a lot of rules and taboos, and at the same time has extremely high moral requirements for the person who draws talismans, which can be divided into "ten precepts and eight taboos" in general.
Therefore, it must come from the hands of a formally trained "high way" in order to be effective.
Those who have not received a position, have no support, and have no power to serve all spirits cannot draw talismans, because the talismans they draw have no attachment to the aura of heaven and earth at all, and they are basically like waste paper, with no effect at all.
What's more, because of the different cultivation of the people who draw the runes, the rune paper they draw, even if it is of the same level, will have a very big difference in power. For example, some talisman masters, the "yellow runes" drawn by their hands may even be even more powerful than ordinary "blue runes"!
Brother Zhou is a good teacher, and while talking endlessly, he has already drawn ten rune papers in one go!
At this time, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, lost a lot of physical strength, and there was an injury on his body, as soon as he stopped writing, he collapsed on the ground.
And I was so attracted by the knowledge of the talisman that I forgot to help him for a while, until he was already sitting on the ground, and I suddenly woke up.
I was about to step forward to help him, but he couldn't help but wave his hand at me, took out a cigarette, and smoked it to himself.
I was a little itchy by what he said, looking at the cinnabar ink on the table that had not been used up, and said with a look of eagerness: "That...... It's not as good as ......."
"Huh-"
Seeing this, Brother Zhou couldn't help but smile slightly, he couldn't guess what I wanted to do, and quipped: "What? Do you want to try it too? ”
"Hmm!"
Nodding affirmatively, I couldn't help but look at him expectantly, of course I don't know how to draw runes, but because I often watch my master draw runes, I also keep in mind a kind of runes that my master often draws on weekdays.
From the pen to the pen, almost every detail is imprinted in my heart, almost ready to come out!
"Okay!"
Nodding slightly, Brother Zhou didn't refuse, but said with a smile: "Anyway, I don't have the strength now!" It's a pity that such a good material is wasted, and it's good to take it for you to practice the pen! ”
Then he asked, "Do you remember my spell?" ”
"Remember!"
I nodded subconsciously, but I was a little unimpressed, because my master had never recited a mantra when drawing talismans, and what I wanted to draw, since it was the kind of runes that my master often drawn, naturally I didn't need to recite a mantra either.
"That's fine! Feel free to do so, I'll watch it for you from the side! ”
Having said that, Brother Zhou actually didn't look at me at all, but smoked a cigarette next to him, obviously not expecting me to draw a reason.
And I said, "Well, can I use my own pen?" ”
As I spoke, I had already subconsciously taken out the talisman pen left by my master from my pocket, and showed it in front of Brother Zhou.
"Oh?"
When Brother Zhou heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned on the spot: "You still have your own talisman?" ”
As he spoke, he took a closer look at the talisman in my hand, and didn't see the reason, so he said, "As you please!" ”
"Great!"
When I heard that Brother Zhou did not object, I immediately felt happy in my heart, and I took the talisman pen and stained the bottom of the bowl with cinnabar. After taking a deep breath, the right hand holding the pen couldn't help but tremble faintly.
After all, this is my first time drawing a talisman, and it would be a fake to say that I was not nervous!
However, when I thought back to the rune that was about to be put down in my mind, my mood suddenly calmed down again.
It was a strange feeling, and I felt as if I had an inexplicable affinity for the talisman in my hand, as if it had become a part of my body.
There is no need to deliberately control it, as if as long as my mind moves, it can draw any pattern I want directly on the yellow sheet paper as I wish.
I didn't know what this meant, and thought it was just a normal phenomenon after a high level of mental concentration, so I didn't tell Brother Zhou. If not, he will definitely be shocked, because my state at this time is actually the legendary "unity of man and pen"!
The power of the rune paper drawn in this state will often undergo an astonishing transformation, and it will get a power bonus in the world and the underworld!
"Up!"
After a little brewing in my heart, I immediately did not hesitate, the pen moved as I wished, and this began to move rapidly on the yellow table paper.
"Hey?"
Brother Zhou looked at me in surprise and said with a smile: "It's a pity that you forgot to recite the mantra......
Before he finished speaking, a complicated rune had already jumped on the paper, and it was actually done in one go, like a swimming dragon, through the back of the paper! Seeing that it was only the last "finishing touch", this rune was about to be completed, but at this moment, something happened suddenly......
I had just finished the last process when I was about to finish the last process, but at the tip of the pen, I couldn't help but produce a huge suction force out of thin air, and I almost didn't suck my soul in!
"Not good!"
Brother Zhou's eyes were quick, and at the same time as his face changed drastically, the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground in an instant, and he couldn't help but quickly pushed me, and shouted at the same time: "Be careful!" ”
