Chapter 61 Bell

Bronze bells appeared as early as primitive societies as ritual bells.

At that time, the bell was made of wood, bamboo, or pottery, and was a simple percussion instrument. With the beginning of the bronze culture, bronze bells appeared during the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Like the Ding, the bell is also a symbol of the royal power of the ruling class, and the "Zhong Ming Ding Food" is a sign of power and status.

Hanging bells, there are strict rules of etiquette and music: the heavenly palace hanging (four-sided hanging bell), the princes Xuan hanging (three-sided hanging bell), the Qing doctor sentence hanging (two-sided hanging clock), Shite hanging (one side hanging clock).

The feudal rulers cast a giant bronze bell to symbolize the royal power, this kind of bell is also called "the bell", "depending on the court, the official office, must be used to gather the public." ”

The bell is also a symbol of the noble, just and virtuous Chinese civilization in people's minds.

Zhang Liang chose to cast a bell as his own utensils.

There are two kinds of shape of the bell, one is a cylindrical button with a height, and the lower mouth of the bell protrudes on both sides like a crescent moon; the other is the upper end of the button is flat, and some of the buttons are in the shape of a beast, and the lower mouth of the bell is flat.

Zhang Liang chose the first one.

Zhang Liang visualized in his heart the vessel he was about to cast, a bronze bell.

The Divine Pattern was constantly combined over the Sea of Bitterness, but it was extremely difficult, and it took Zhang Liang a lot of effort just to get the Divine Pattern together.

In the end, he slowly smelted dozens of "divine patterns" and sacrificed them into a fist-sized ball, but it was difficult to cast, could not be transformed, and no matter how you looked at it, it had nothing to do with the "bell".

Zhang Liang tried many times, not to mention tempering it into the shape of a bell, even if it was carved with some patterns, it was really difficult and difficult to sacrifice the bell.

However, Zhang Liang is not anxious, it will be a long process, and the complex tool is not so simple to complete.

Zhang Liang hunts some prey in the mountains every day, and he lives freely in the town.

The small shop where Zhang Liang temporarily lives is opened by a middle-aged couple, and the couple wandered outside in their early years, hoping to give their offspring a future.

It's a pity that I didn't achieve anything in my life outside, but I learned a lot of cooking.

When he got old, he was tired and thought of his hometown, so he packed his bags and used the couple's savings for many years to open a small shop.

The town is remote, people's minds are relatively simple, and they are not polluted by this world, Zhang Liang lives extremely comfortably in such a day.

And the cooking skills of these two couples are really good, although Zhang Liang has not been here for a long time, but he has been overwhelmed by his craftsmanship, and he is a little curious why they don't open stores in some big cities.

After a long time here, I have known these two couples well, and occasionally chatted during meals every day.

"Shopkeeper, let's come and eat together, they are all laymen, not so particular, and it is thanks to you for so many days, otherwise I would have slept on the streets. ”

Zhang Liang beat a roe deer and added food in this small shop, there were no customers in the store, only Zhang Liang was eating alone, which was also strangely lonely.

"The young man is too polite, you also gave the store money, and thank you for taking care of our business?"

The man in the store was enthusiastic and very friendly to Zhang Liang, but he didn't come over, just thanked Zhang Liang for his kindness.

No one came to enjoy this meal with him, and Zhang Liang didn't care, it was just casually sent just now, since the owner didn't come, there was no need to force it.

After dinner, I went straight back to my guest room, and instead of sleeping, I continued to practice.

Subsequently, he continued to meditate on the Tao Sutra, each time with a different feeling, and only after a long time did he stop and began to temper the "bell" above the bitter sea.

Dozens of "divine patterns" are smelted together, like a piece of divine iron lump, shining brightly, let Zhang Liang temper it thousands of times, but it is always difficult to turn into a bell.

During this period, Zhang Liang once tried to cast a halberd, although the result was not a complete success, but it roughly had the appearance of a halberd embryo, and if it was tempered slowly, it would succeed one day sooner or later.

"Why is the bell so hard to sacrifice?"

Zhang Liang smelted the red halberd embryo and restarted casting the bell, but after trying again and again, he failed again and again, and could only temper it into a lump, which could not be formed, and even the rough embryo was difficult to form.

Zhang Liang finally felt the deep malice of the world, there was a small tree before, it had always been smooth sailing, and it was incredible, but now it seems that he is really not a genius.

It's still a lot worse, but Zhang Liang didn't give up, Guoshu taught him a lot, and Xiaoshu didn't show his extraordinary, low-key and low-key words in the Guoshu world.

And the world of national arts has also brought great changes to Zhang Liang, making Zhang Liang realize his true heart and have the heart to seek the Tao.

The world of national arts is pure, any master of the transformation realm is pure and terrifying, Zhang Liang reached the peak of martial arts in the world of national arts, this is the only time he has achieved an achievement by himself, without relying on external objects.

Although Xiaoshu's strengthening on Skull Island gave him great help, the world of national arts finally relied on him to punch and kick, and he realized in the fight between life and death, and was no longer so confused.

has his own pursuit, honing his heart.

The divine patterns are constantly combined, but unfortunately it is always difficult to form, and after all, it cannot become the clock imagined in Zhang Liang's heart.

However, Zhang Liang was not discouraged, kept trying, repeatedly condensed, and Zhang's spirit was strengthened several times, and a small red lake was opened up in the center of his eyebrows.

If it is an ordinary person, he is almost tired of lying down after condensing dozens of times, and he has no choice but to give up, but for Zhang Liang who has reached the peak of the other side, and his spirit has been condensed into substance, this is just an appetizer.

However, such repeated failures are not fruitless, and the red divine iron seems to have the appearance of some bells.

It's a pity that this is more like a failure, and suddenly Zhang Liang's heart moved.

He saw the little tree, the mysterious little tree was originally deeply rooted in the void of Zhang Liang's mind, but since Zhang Liang opened up the Bitter Sea Divine Spring, the mysterious little tree has been transferred to Zhang Liang's bitter sea.

Zhang Liang's mind moved, and all his spirits gathered in the bitter sea, the red bitter sea tide soared into the sky, and in the sky above the red bitter sea, black lightning crossed from time to time, which was the spatial cracks that were constantly impacted by the red bitter sea.

The small tree is rooted in the middle of the bitter sea, and it exudes a strange rhyme.

It seems to occupy the center of the whole world, and involuntarily gathers all the human spirit on the fruit of the small tree.

Zhang Liang could clearly see that inside that mysterious fruit, there were endless Dao patterns.

Endless Dao patterns all gathered on the mysterious green lotus.

There is no "road pattern" on the surface of the mysterious fruit, only the green lotus inside the fruit is densely packed, the road pattern is dense, complex, and unfathomable, and it is impossible to understand it at all.

Although it is mysterious and mysterious, it has a kind of natural charm of Taoism, which makes people deeply touched at a glance.
