Chapter 469: Concentration

"Forget it, let's try to draw the talisman smoothly......"

Tang Chen comforted himself and nodded to himself.

"Oh no!!"

Just as Tang Chen began to rummage through the pile of things, he found that he seemed to have missed something that looked inconspicuous, but the most important thing - a brush! "I remember that I thought I bought a brush?" Tang Chen felt that there seemed to be a fault in his memory, as if he had bought a brush, but he didn't seem to have bought it.

"How is it possible? We also went to Guo Lao's 'pen village', so it stands to reason that there is no way not to buy a brush?" Tang Chen put down the pile of things and thought about it, "Could it be that it was leaked in the car?"

Thinking of this, Tang Chen immediately stood up, opened the kitchen door, and shouted before he could see it clearly: "Elder Zeng, Elder Guo, did you miss the brush...... Hey, what about people?"

The living room was empty, and Zeng Lao and Lao Guo, who were still drinking tea and chatting just now, had disappeared.

"Strange thing, where can they go?"

Tang Chen walked up to the second floor in confusion, searched for every room, and knocked on the doors of the few rooms that had not been opened, but no one answered. "Elder Zeng, Elder Guo......?"

After several rounds of calling, Tang Chen finally gave up: "It seems that he is indeed going out......"

There was no way, Tang Chen had no choice but to take out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket and dial Zeng Lao: "Hey, Zeng Lao, where have you been?...... Oh, that's right...... I've worked hard for you, but I was negligent...... Where's the ...... Okay, I'm here waiting for you to come back......"

After hanging up the phone, Tang Chen patted his head with a wry smile, and laughed at himself: "It's ridiculous, I bought everything, but I didn't buy a brush, I didn't have a brush to draw a fart...... "No way, it's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, so she can't paint with her hands, right?"

In fact, this is also the strength of traditional Chinese culture, even if the ballpoint pen has replaced the brush, but in some specific occasions, such as drawing symbols, this brush is still a necessity. If you don't get away from the brush, it's not a drawing. And it should be noted that to draw powerful talismans, you must use the best brush. The best brushes are, of course, handmade brushes. In normal times, Tang Chen would of course be worried that Zeng Lao would not know the goods and buy high-quality counterfeit and shoddy products. But with a real pen-making expert Lao Guo by his side, what else did Tang Chen have to worry about?

After about twenty minutes, the door of the villa opened, and I saw Zeng Lao hurriedly walking in: "Master Tang, the brush is here!"

Tang Chen's eyes lit up, but he still said: "It's hard, it's hard, it's hard, Zeng Lao, Guo Lao." In fact, there is no need to rush so much, and it is not a very urgent matter. You must know that this "if you want to hurry, you can't reach it", the same is true for drawing symbols, if you are in a hurry, then I am afraid that it will fail. ”

After Zeng Lao adjusted his breath, he smiled bitterly: "Isn't this afraid that Master Tang, you can't wait!"

Tang Chen took the brush from Zeng Lao's hand, and Lao Guo said a little proudly: "Master Tang, this time I have taken out all my housekeeping skills, you can succeed once!"

Tang Chen carefully observed these brushes, and sure enough, the materials used were excellent. If you take it out and sell it, it is estimated that there will be people who want it for hundreds or thousands of dollars. Tang Chen was not a greedy person, so he took out the most suitable Zhongkai sheep's hair and said with a smile: "Guo Lao, accept your auspicious words, I will definitely go all out!" But this brush can't be used so much, just one." ”

With that, Tang Chen turned around and entered the kitchen, and took out the mixed cinnabar, hard yellow paper, bamboo stick incense, and the incense burner.

"Master Tang, are you going to start drawing talismans?" Zeng Lao couldn't help but swallow his saliva and asked a little nervously.

Tang Chen nodded: "If you prepare early, you can draw a few more talismans." The more runes, the better the odds. ”

The truth that quantitative change causes qualitative change is understood by everyone present, but I didn't expect that Fu Zheng also paid attention to this. Tang Chen ignored their expressions and followed his own plan, step by step. First of all, it is to restrain the mind and reach the realm of calm waves. In this regard, Tang Chen has a unique way. As long as he recites the "Taishang Induction Chapter", he can quickly enter the realm of selflessness and devote himself to the "career" of drawing talismans.

After reining in the mind, it is time to purify the body. Concentrating on the body is the most basic requirement for drawing talismans. If the heart is not quiet and the spirit is not condensed, it will not be successful.

Tang Chen had already washed his hands and dried them with a paper towel. The next thing is to burn incense, these bamboo sticks are found by Tang Chen and Zeng Lao in Feng Shui Street, which can be said to be the best bamboo sticks on the market. After lighting the bamboo stick incense with a lighter, everyone present smelled a faint fragrance. Tang Chen respectfully held the incense and bowed in the direction of the incense burner, and then respectfully inserted the bamboo stick incense into the incense burner that had just been added with fine sand.

I saw Tang Chen lift this new brush, and infiltrate the small dish with a soft brush, and the white milli blade immediately turned bright red, looking extraordinarily full and moist. The red pigment juice was like ink, and after Tang Chen dipped this brush in cinnabar, he carefully sketched it on a yellow note on the table. Between the strokes of the pen tip, red lines gradually appear, either straight or curved......

There is no doubt that Tang Chen is drawing talismans.

The origin of the talisman is very early, and the history is very long. Long before the pre-Qin period, there were talismans that were handed down to the world. At that time, the witches summoned the gods to impeach the ghosts, suppress the demons and subdue the demons through the talismans. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Taiping Dao arose, using Fu water to cure diseases and save people, quickly rallying the hearts of the people, and then opened the mighty Yellow Turban Army uprising, which led to the demise of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

However, it was at that time that the Fu Qi line became a thorn in the eyes of the rulers for a long time, and the target of key suppression. Over time, the Fu Gong faction slowly declined and could not become the mainstream. It has either developed lattently among the people, or it has become an auxiliary method of cultivation among the major schools of Taoism.

Now Tang Chen was holding his breath and concentrating, and he was concentrating, just outlining one of the very simple and practical runes. But before Tang Chen lifted the pen, his movements were still a little stiff, but as soon as the tip of the pen moved, it seemed to have been tempered a lot, and the movements became very familiar without the slightest hindrance.

The uniform and slender red lines leap on the hard yellow paper, as if flowing water, very smooth and beautiful, and they are pleasing to the eye.

"Master Tang is a powerful master, this action is simply ......," Lao Guo couldn't help but praise in a low voice.

Zeng Lao said a little proudly: "Then you have little knowledge, and when you see a camel, you have to say that the horse's back is swollen...... What is this, Master Tang's real ability, you have only seen the tip of the iceberg, let me tell you, when you were in Panzhou, you ......" Zeng Lao said Tang Chen's "glorious deeds" in Panzhou, Lao Guo's eyes straightened when he heard it: "Impossible, right?"
