Chapter Twenty-Six: Fu Xin
didn't make the multiple-choice question of whether to "admit that the dwarf is a friend", and the silver wolf rarely didn't go to Liu Ci to enjoy the food for several days.
Since the dwarf went crazy in the middle of the night and cried wolf howl was stopped by it, the silver wolf has inexplicably lost sleep, and it is subconsciously a little afraid of seeing the dwarf.
On this day, the heavy snow stopped, and the silver wolf suddenly missed the energetic dwarf all day, so he didn't continue to dwell on the multiple-choice questions that he didn't come to a conclusion, but first ran to a few mountains and hunted a fifth-order "thorn civet" with a green body as a gift, and slowly paced down the mountain from the forest all the way to visit Liu Ci.
The blue thorn civet is full of lean meat, and it really doesn't taste much oil and water, but I like this product with a good green and smooth fur. Liu Ci already had a pure white rabbit fur coat and a fiery fox fur, and the silver wolf thought it would be good to add a piece of green. As for when he started hunting only to pick meat and delicious food, to spending more effort to catch those with magic cores, and even now deliberately picking a prey for dwarfs that can be used as clothes, the silver wolf didn't pay attention to it, and he didn't bother to think about it with his emotional intelligence.
Of course, whether it is a white rabbit skin, a red fox fur, or a blue vitex civet, in the eyes of the silver wolf, the color is vulgar, and the silver is naturally beautiful, so you can't pull out your own skin, right?
The silver wolf was taken aback when he saw Liu Ci's appearance, he hadn't seen it for a few days, and the dwarf's white face had two black circles under his eyes, as if he had been beaten by some magical beast.
And seeing it coming with the Bijing civet, Liu Ci had words in his mouth for a while, and lowered his head in contemplation for a while, not noticing the beautiful Bijing civet with its fur and the magic core under the fur that was definitely not low.
The dwarfs are sick?
The body of the monster is strong, and it will only get injured and never get sick, but the fragile body of human beings is often tormented by various diseases, otherwise the clergy of the monastery would not have relied on the "light magic" they learned to pass through the continent unimpeded. The silver wolf threw the blue vitex civet down, looking at Liu Ci with some concern, and couldn't think of any potion to cure the dwarf's strange behavior for a while.
"You're here, big wolf." Liu Ci turned his head to say hello, and in an instant, he lowered his head and squatted on the ground to write and draw on the branches.
Oh, it's really strange for humans to always give it a new name, calling it "grandma's" at first, "wolf god" halfway, and now it's simply "wolf big"?
The silver wolf was psychologically active, and when he saw Liu Ci frowning and wiping the traces of the snow surface, he didn't raise his head and added: "I don't have time to do it today, wolf, you go home and eat yourself!" ”
Do you go home and eat yourself? The silver wolf was eager to smash Liu Ci to death with the hunted "Bijing Raccoon", and after holding its breath for a while, it realized that the dwarf was not sick, but seemed to have encountered a problem.
One of the cooing birds it knew was like that.
Obsessed with the mathematical problems of the human world, it begins to go crazy when it can't figure out the answers, and at first the symptoms are to hit the stone with its head, and then it becomes the king of the mountain, and it is specially guarded on the road to the mountain that human adventurers must pass, and the mercenaries who can't answer its questions eat it all. How many of the poor mercenaries are not big and coarse? Fortunately, no adventurer survived the repeated challenges of Gollum, and the rumor that "there was a monster in the Moloch Mountains that only spit out people and love mathematics" did not have a chance to spread, so they acquiesced to Gollum's madness.
The dwarf looks like a cooing bird smashing its head against a stone.
If it wasn't long before the dwarfs went completely insane, they would stop the passing monsters from asking for answers...... With her strength, isn't it the right to send her to death?
No, it must be saved by the special little cook, and there is no second dwarf in the Moloch Mountains who is willing to cook for the monsters.
So the silver wolf deigned to come forward to watch what Liu Ci was writing and painting.
Twisted and strange line patterns, the silver wolf blinked, could it be the latest math problem? It hesitated, considering whether to catch the cooping bird to "treat" Liu Ci, forget it, let's ask first.
"What are you drawing?"
Beast God bless, don't answer it and say it's doing a question!
The beast god rarely responded to the silver wolf's prayer, and Liu Ci lowered his head and popped out two words: "Draw a talisman!" ”
"What is a charm?" Tsk, another new term.
How did the wolf god, who is usually regarded as a guest, now switch to the "100,000 whys" style? Liu Ci felt that it was squatting next to her and hindered her concentration, so she simply dropped the branch, rubbed her eyes and wrists, and explained to the silver wolf what a talisman was by the way. If you want to explain the white talisman, you have to explain the aura, and even her origin, damn, it's too troublesome.
She simply pointed to the talisman pen and yellow paper on the stone table, "It's too complicated to explain in detail, simply put, it is to use a unique text and graphic to guide the power in my body, and write it on the yellow paper with cinnabar ink, and if it is successful, the paper talisman will produce various effects!" ”
After listening to this, the silver wolf thought about it for a few seconds, and made a very precise definition: "Isn't it similar to a magic scroll, why can't you explain it clearly?" ”
Liu Ci was stunned for a moment, and she heard a new term from the mouth of the silver wolf: magic scroll.
"To put it simply, human magicians use some special magic patterns to channel the magic in their bodies, and use the blood of magical beasts to draw on parchment or animal skin, and if successful, the scroll will produce a variety of different magical effects as soon as it is shaken open! Do you understand? ”
A cloud of hot air came out of the silver wolf's nostrils, and she was dumbfounded with Liu Ci's sentence - you know a fart, haven't you seen that she hasn't even finished the earth's talismans, a dead wolf who loves to hold grudges!
However, it sounds like the magic scroll and the cultivation talisman have a lot in common, but you can learn from the experience.
Liu Ci changed his previous attitude of ignorance, and praised the silver wolf for a long time, and finally begged it to be willing to talk about the "magic scroll" of this world.
It turns out that once the magic power in the body of a high-level magician is consumed, it can only be recovered through "meditation", and there are often battles between magicians, and the enemy can't let you shout to pause when the magic power is not enough in the middle of the fight, so meditate for a few hours before continuing to fight, right? That's where the magic scroll comes in.
Using the blood and leather of demonic beasts, coupled with a special rectangular array, alchemists among humans would create scrolls sealed with different magic, which were not only portable and could be used by ordinary people without magical powers, but despite their high prices, they were still popular with magicians and wealthy nobles. The large demand for magic scrolls also stimulated the high demand for mathematics and physics, which made ordinary people who did not have magic talent methods study mathematics and physics one after another, which greatly added another path to the common people.
High requirements for mathematics and physics? Liu Ci grasped the key point at once, if the blood and skin of the demonic beast are equivalent to the yellow paper and cinnabar in the talisman, the effect of the rectangular array is similar to the rune, right?
The strange thing is that the maker of the magic scroll is not a magician but an alchemist, and has a high demand for mathematics, obviously the magic materials are only for the storage of magic power, and the real effect is the rectangular array calculated by those mathematical theorists! That's why magic scrolls can be mass-produced...... But why is the talisman in the cultivation civilization secret?
She intuitively figured out the difference between the two, and maybe she could understand why she failed to draw the talisman.
Liu Ci's discarded rune paper was piled up on the stone table, and the silver wolf didn't bother her when he saw that she seemed to have an understanding.
Thinking of the dwarf's demeanor when he lifted the pen on the day of the first snow, the silver wolf involuntarily picked up a large piece of paper pressed at the bottom. It didn't know the ancient Chinese characters, but as soon as this piece of paper full of ancient Chinese characters came into view, a picture flashed in front of the silver wolf's eyes: the charm of the dwarf's gestures, the laughter of the pen at the end of the book, the blurred and elevated back, and the eclipsed world background......
"Ah, these lines are alive!" The silver wolf pointed at the famous Taibai and couldn't hide his surprise.
Liu Ci was awakened by the voice of the silver wolf, and secretly gritted his teeth: Silly wolf, how can the lines be alive? But it's really cool to bully Warcraft and not know Chinese characters! She laughed twice, quietly laughing at the noble Silver Wolf Great Demon Beast.
In order to prove his argument, the silver wolf put down the famous Taibai chapter, and asked Liu Ci to see the waste rune paper she had drawn.
"These, and these, are all dead."
Nonsense, if the scrapped rune paper is "alive", what is the purpose of her entangled days? Liu Ci thought so, but still listened to the silver wolf's words and looked at the table. The opinions of high-level demonic beasts should not be underestimated, and the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and the silver wolf must have discovered something that she ignored.
"Come on, draw a talisman and take a look."
Seeing that the silver wolf said formally, Liu Ci took the pen with doubts, injected the aura into the talisman pen, and drew a "primary water gathering talisman" that had been studied for several days and could not be grasped, the tip of the pen was lifted one by one, the rune lines were clear and accurate, and the glimmer of the spirit was like a broken light bulb, which flashed twice and was completely extinguished.
It's another scrap talisman!
The silver wolf slapped the ancient tree with its paws, and the snowflakes were shaken everywhere.
"I see...... Dwarf, you don't draw symbols the same way you write. When I write, my eyes are glowing, and when I draw symbols, my face is ugly. ”
Do your eyes glow when you write?
Liu Ci was stunned by what the silver wolf said, she felt happy when she wrote, even if she was in a bad mood, most of the chest tightness would disappear when she was in a wild grass! And when drawing the runes, I trembled, either worrying about the shade of cinnabar ink or thinking about whether the rune lines were wrong.
Calligraphy is written with heart, and the pen moves freely.
On the contrary, the drawing talisman is trapped in various restrictions, and the drawing is a prison.
Liu Ci realized something, spread out the rune paper, and closed his eyes to imagine the lines of the water gathering talisman. Her vision blurred, and the runes swam freely in her mind as if they had come to life. The red cinnabar ink turned into flowing water, the water rippled, the green willows on the lakeside, the vast mountains disappeared, and the undulating blue waves that Liu Ci saw were clearly from the frolicking Dongting Lake.
The steaming clouds and Mengze, the 800-mile Dongting waters that shake Yueyang Tower, are they considered "gathering water"?
I don't know when to start with the rune pen, the beautiful scenery of the virtual cave court makes Liu Ci linger, dip the ink and put the pen, the lines like flowing clouds, and draw more than a dozen runes in one breath, the rune light gradually brightens, except for the last one because the aura in her body is exhausted and unsuccessfully enlightened, and when Liu Ci comes back to his senses, the dozen or so primary water gathering talismans on the stone table flow with a blue glimmer - are they all successful?
She put down her pen and reminisced about the mood she had just drawn the talisman.
In contrast to magic scrolls that can be mass-produced, drawing runes obviously requires the monk to comprehend the world of runes with his heart.
Cultivators seek the Dao heart as stable as a rock, why don't they need a pure "talisman heart" that moves with the mind when drawing the talisman?
