Chapter 17 What is the drawing?
Jiang Chen had already given himself a definition of "no talent for drawing talismans" in his heart, and at this time, he was ready to make up for his clumsiness, staring at Zhang Xuezhou on the stage with full attention.
Zhang Xuezhou is worthy of being Xia Mai's father, and his appearance is also very stable, I saw him standing on the stage and talking eloquently, exuding the temperament of a romantic and talented person, and many female cultivators in the audience stared at him for a moment.
"Let's start drawing the Dunhuang amulet. There are two orthodox Dunhuang amulets, the first one is used for self-protection, please see the projection for details, and students can also turn the book to page 35 to view. ”
After that, a photo of a symbol was released in the projector, the top of this symbol is a "mountain" character, the middle is like the word "day", surrounded by four "light" words, and the next book "There is a canopy marshal on the left, and there is a black killing general on the right". Just listen to Zhang Xuezhou's further explanation:
"The word 'mountain' on it represents the place where Sanqing lives. This place is in the Xijiang River, and there is a holy place called Sanqing Mountain. And the word 'day' in the middle surrounds 'light', which means that the sun is shining. The ancestors believed that the ghosts and spirits were all yin, and they were most afraid of light and fire, and writing light on the charm could make the ghosts dare not get close. After a pause, he reminded everyone: "Maybe some students think that the analysis of the content of the charm is meaningless, but the fact is often the opposite, the drawing of the charm can not help but seek to understand, in the process of drawing, should be the 'meaning' and 'spirit' combined, when a deep understanding of the idea of a charm, and then to draw the natural can achieve twice the result with half the effort." ”
Xia Mai didn't give his father face, and whispered beside him: "In fact, whether you need to comprehend the 'meaning' to draw a talisman has always been one of the points of debate in the academic community of talismans, and many people think that as long as there is enough 'spirit' injected, it can become a talisman. My dad is the type of demon who belongs to the realm, just listen to it. ”
I didn't expect Zhang Xuezhou to be an old artist in the world of charms? Jiang Chen even looked in awe.
I saw Zhang Xuezhou on the stage with his hands on the stage, and the talisman saw that it had been formed, and he continued to tell: "In the "Taoist Spiritual Experience", it is said, 'The Emperor is the Emperor Taidi of the Ziwei Upper Palace in the Beidou, Xuanqing in the Palace, and the Emperor of the Upper Palace. The emperor is the general of the emperor's department, that is, the marshal of the emperor. This is the Generalissimo of the Canopy. And the Black Killing General is also said to be the division of the Big Dipper Star God. ”
As soon as the words fell, a complete rune paper had been drawn, this charm was drawn with cinnabar, and the moment it was completed, the whole classroom was a little brighter, and it gradually dimmed after a while, and finally Zhang Xuezhou folded it up and let the students pass it on. When Jiang Chen took it in his hand, he was surprised to find that this Dunhuang talisman was heavy, and there was even a hint of metal to the touch, as if the rune paper that had been infused by the 'spirit' had even changed its texture.
The students at the bottom were also eager to try, and they all picked up the pen and started to move.
The situation of the four people here has not changed much, the clouds and rivers are flowing in the summer, it is strictly forbidden to work neatly and fish, and there are messy ghosts to draw Fu Sun Fatzi, only Jiang Chen stared at the Fu Paper with a distressed expression.
He was a little afraid to put pen to paper, if he broke the second desk in the school again, he was afraid that he would be kicked out of class......
"You can't do that. Zhang Xuezhou's voice came from the front, Jiang Chen happened to not know what to do, so he simply followed, but it was the table of the hooded man and the glasses man, only to see Teacher Zhang pick up a piece of talisman paper and say to the hooded man: "In this one of yours, there is no 'spirit' at all, it is not much help to exorcise evil spirits, and it can basically only be regarded as good-looking." Draw two more pictures to appreciate the relationship between the 'spirit' and the pen. ”
This made him a little surprised, originally thought that he had the courage to pretend to be his identity to enter the school, how to say that he also had some real skills, who knew that this person actually couldn't even draw a primary charm, could it be that he was deliberately clumsy? I couldn't help but look at the hooded man a few more times, the other party really just looked like he was studying hard, which made him even more puzzled.
In any case, I can't see what it is, but I still transfer my energy to the rune paper in front of me. Looking at his right hand, he was still a little frightened when he thought of the feeling that even his soul had been drained just now.
At this time, Yu Guang seemed to have a gaze towards him, and he pursued the source, but it was Jingyu. This person has already drawn his talisman, although he does not have the feeling of being full of brilliance after Zhang Xuezhou finished painting, but it is also shining, obviously successful, and he is putting down his pen at this time and staring at himself.
Jiang Chen suddenly remembered what Jing Yu whispered when he changed seats just now: "Change hands."
Thinking like this, he tried to hold the pen on his left hand and gestured twice, but it was really awkward, and then looked at Jingyu, but the other party had already looked away from his gaze and began to practice the next rune paper.
Dip the pen in the cinnabar with gilt powder, close your eyes slightly, feel your left hand slowly start to get hot, and the feeling of gathering 'spirits' begins to rise again, so I pick up the pen again.
After a moment of hesitation, the paper finally fell.
This experience was completely different from the last time, he could feel the slight numb heat flow down his fingers into the tip of the pen, and then spread to the paper, at that moment his arm seemed to be one with the pen and paper, although his eyes were closed, he could still feel the touch of every pen, every piece of paper. Slowly moving his wrist like this, the pen is like an uncontrollable naughty boy, dodging his manipulation, gently shaking his pen, but after all, under his push, leaving vermilion marks on the paper.
I feel very clearly in my heart that this is done!
Slowly opening his eyes, he saw bursts of golden light on the rune paper, illuminating several tables around him. With the comparison of the previous failure experience, Jiang Chen's progress can be said to be obvious to all, even Zhang Xuezhou saw the changes here, walked towards their table, and said in his mouth: "The spirit overflows but does not disperse, the colored light is gilded, and the evil spirit is exorcised and the yin is avoided, which is great!
Jiang Chen had just opened his eyes, and when he heard that he was praised by the teacher, he couldn't help but feel a little proud, and he also looked at the rune paper on the table. It doesn't matter what he looks at, he and Zhang Xuezhou, as well as a few onlookers around him, were stunned.
"Brother Chen......" The fat man said bluntly: "What are you painting here......"
Xia Mai snorted and laughed: "If I didn't know that you drew a talisman, I would have thought you were a master of abstract painting!"
Zhang Xuezhou was silent for a long time, probably thinking about how to be decent and not embarrassed to take back his praise just now, and finally gave up after thinking for a long time, and said: "Although the response was good when it became a talisman, it ...... This aesthetic also needs to be considered more, otherwise it will be very inconvenient if different rune papers are put together, and if they can't distinguish their uses......"
I saw a few strokes twisted and wound on Jiang Chen's rune paper, and he couldn't see a single handwriting at all, each stroke shook into wavy lines, and there were a few words and words that were completely intertwined, messy and messy, and I couldn't see what it should have been, more like a child's meaningless graffiti. Compared with his finished product, Sun Qian suddenly had a lot more confidence in his ghost talismans.
Hearing Zhang Xuezhou's comments, a few people also came around to take a look, Jiang Chen felt embarrassed, and hurriedly folded the rune paper into a small triangle according to the steps in the book, and put it in his pocket.
Then he tried to draw two more pictures, but found that no matter how he opened his eyes and closed his eyes, the things that came out in the end were unsightly, worse than children learning words, as more and more paintings, the consumption of "spirit" became more and more large, and it became more and more difficult to control the way of putting down the pen, and in the end the painting was all black paint and blackened, and it was shining, which made him feel very complicated.
At this time, he knew that Xia Mai's beautiful and fast drawing process not only contained a deep "spirit" reserve, but also skillful guidance and use, so as to achieve open source and reduce expenditure, moist and inexhaustible.
In the rest of the time, Zhang Xuezhou demonstrated several common exorcism talismans in the classroom, such as the "Nine Phoenix Breaking Talisman" and "Seven Star True Monarch Demon Elimination Talisman", Jiang Chen followed and drew them one by one, and finally said that he really realized what it meant to "seem to have been hollowed out of the body", and he couldn't mobilize the last bit of "spirit" until he used it, and the light of the drawn talisman was getting weaker and weaker, and it was difficult to continue.
Finally, the bell rang for the end of class, and Jiang Chen lay on the table with a decadent face to rest. However, he was not the only one who reacted in this way, and several other students painted sallow faces and empty eyes, sitting in their seats and adjusting their breath in various ways.
Sun Qian didn't change much, he was still alive and trembling, and comforted him: "Brother Chen, don't worry, I've read the class schedule, and the next two courses are nothing particularly laborious." ”
Jiang Chen didn't have the energy to take care of him, but he was unexpectedly picked up by Jingyu and walked out: "Change classrooms." ”
Jing Yu looked very thin, but he was afraid that there was a body of tendon flesh hidden in his clothes, and Jiang Chen couldn't break free at all, so he was simply dragged forward.
The fat man and Xia Mai followed behind with a grin.
