Chapter 303: Practice

Depicting this "Purification Talisman", Tang Chen gained a lot.

Not to mention that he seems to have seen the highest level of drawing talismans, just his understanding of the drawing talismans is enough for him to figure it out for a while.

It turns out that the most miraculous Taoist talisman is not the so-called "divine text", but those seemingly inconsequential patterns of the sun, moon and stars. Perhaps Taoism pretended to be mysterious, and cleverly hid the key points of the runes from the words. People in the world must subconsciously feel that the Indian text is the key, so they study the text on it wholeheartedly, and then they are fooled.

At the beginning, Tang Chen felt strange, how could this rune be a little wrong. After many studies, Tang Chen found out that in fact, these cloud seal characters were just a cover-up. The sun, stars, and moon symbols on it are the real key to the rune.

Tang Chen couldn't figure it out at first, but then compared his heart to his heart, and he suddenly realized.

Since ancient times, there are not many ways to make a living in Taoism, one is Taoism, including alchemy or something, to attract believers to worship, that is, to rely on incense to beg for food; the second is to do the law, but whenever there is any white joy, it is a good time for Taoist priests to go out, don't think that only Buddhism can be exceeded, in fact, the people believe more in Taoism's excess; and the third is to farm by themselves. And the talisman is also a kind of Taoism, which cannot be learned unless there is a master and a professor.

In Taoism, apprenticeship is the key to the transmission of Taoist scriptures and the passing of wisdom and life. It's not just as simple as understanding. The relationship between master and apprentice is like father and son, but different from father and son. In Taoism, in a broad sense, all the senior masters of the Taoist sect are teachers, and the great heavenly lords and the ancestors are also teachers. And the master here refers to the master who took refuge.

The inheritance of Taoism in Taoism is based on "Tao", and the knowledge of the Tao taught by the master to the next generation is called "transmission", and the disciple takes refuge in the "Tao" as the foundation, and accepts the master's teachings as "inheritance". The teacher "transmits" the apprentice "inherits", so it is called "inheritance". The lineage of apprenticeship must require the lineage of orthodox Taoist schools and masters.

In order to prevent the means of livelihood from leaking, the Taoist priests tried every possible way, and even moved on the runes of these runes, that is, they gradually evolved into "divine texts", and the most critical graphics have always remained the same. Perhaps this can be simply understood as the fact that these "divine texts" are equivalent to the garbled code of the encryption program, and only the unchanging pattern is the key to unlocking the talisman.

Of course, this is not to say that these "divine texts" are useless. The symbol of the sun, moon and stars is of course the key, but some lines of the "divine text" are also a bridge to form a rune paper. As for how these words evolved into this, it is no longer possible to test. However, it can be confirmed that after thousands of years of experience, the rune paper drawn in this way is indeed effective. Even if it has not been enlightened, because of its own symbols, coupled with the evil spirit warding effect of cinnabar, it can also deter some filthy things.

But then again, why did the pattern of the sun, moon and stars become the key?

Tang Chen thought about it for a long time before he came up with an ambiguous answer.

Like Feng Shui, Taoism is born from Taoist thought, that is to say, Taoism is the same as the "Tao" as the universe ontology, the law of all things, is a mysterious existence beyond time and space, to put it bluntly, Taoism has a deep study of celestial phenomena, and believes that the power of the stars has some mysterious connection with people. In addition, the Taoist classics are voluminous, including doctrines, canons and precepts, cultivation of spells, Zhai Jiao rituals, preaching and Feng Shui calculations, etc., Feng Shui is born from Taoism, so this is why many Feng Shui masters in history are Taoist priests.

As the saying goes, the first-class gentleman watches the stars, the second-class gentleman looks at the water mouth, and the third-class gentleman walks all over the mountain.

Stargazing is a very high level of feng shui masters, as long as you pierce a little more, you can reach the realm of feng shui masters. Like Taoism, Feng Shui also believes that the sun, moon and stars have a great influence on the earth, and humans on the earth are naturally not immune. Science has also proved that the earth cannot exist independently of the sun, moon, or even the solar system. The movement of the sun, the movement of the moon, and even the movement of the stars have a great impact on human beings.

And in the "Yin Fu Sutra", it is also said, "Heaven kills, the stars are easy to stay, the earth kills, the dragon and snake rise to land, the man kills, the heaven and the earth repeat, the heaven and man are combined, and the foundation is determined by all ......" This is the Taoist worship of the sun, moon and stars, and it is also admiration. In this way, it is logical that the sun, moon and star pattern on the rune is the key.

Thinking of this, Tang Chen seemed to have a similar bypass, and his understanding of feng shui was deeper.

Everything in the world is connected, and it also has an aura. Aura can affect people, there is a good side, and naturally there is a bad side.

Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs. Nature is emotionless, and it is an altar tribute to all things. If people want to live in harmony with nature, they have to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Rune paper, in fact, is a means for human beings to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but because of the secrecy of Taoism, it has been mystified.

Tang Chen's eyes flashed with a look of insight into everything, and he slowly calmed down his mood and continued to sketch with his pen.

As he expected, it was not so easy to do with an aura. Tang Chen even drew a few talismans, but there was no unexpected failure. But he doesn't mind, as long as he puts these talismans away and turns around and hangs them in this "Seven Star Robbery" Feng Shui Bureau, he will definitely be able to condense his aura smoothly.

Once raw and twice ripe, there are many times of failure, and there are times of success. After drawing twenty or thirty talismans without aura, it may be that God felt sorry for Tang Chen, and finally gave him a chance to succeed......

"Brush!"

With one stroke, Tang Chen quickly withdrew his hand, and the pen did not glue the page, but when Fu Cheng, the aura naturally condensed, and the page also floated out of thin air, slowly rising more than ten centimeters, and then fell naturally.

"It's just a perfect defilement talisman......

Tang Chen had no choice but to paint again......

Pure water charm, treasure mirror charm, Taishang Laojun's edict seal...... Tang Chen was like a printer, slowly drawing pieces of rune paper from the brush in his hand. It's a pity that the success rate is too small, and it is often dozens of drawings before one is lucky.

This painting lasted for a long time, and it wasn't until the evening that Tang Chen's arm was so weak that he couldn't even lift the pen, so he stopped. The process is very boring, bitter and tiring. However, looking at the thick stack of talismans, as well as the few pieces of rune paper that were separated, he felt that this talisman drawing practice was very worthwhile, at least the success rate of his "one aura" had improved from dozens to dozens, and even when he drew the "Taishang Laojun Imperial Decree Seal", he actually succeeded once!
