Chapter 181: Lin Xiao made a talisman

In the morning, a group of foreigners came to the temple, about a dozen people, who looked like they had come from the United States.

Basically, everyone has a DSLR camera around their neck, and they are tall and big, and they carry a backpack on their shoulders, which looks like they can hold 40 kilograms.

When they came, they were just in time for dinner here, so they unceremoniously begged for some food and ate with the medical staff.

It seems that they heard that the Americans were coming, and many young people and children came from the village one after another to watch them play monkeys.

Foreigners don't mind being watched by the locals at all, as if they have long since gotten used to this kind of gaze, on the contrary, they are a little happy, and from time to time they pose all kinds of ghost horse poses, making the people around them laugh.

"What kind of paint is this?" A foreigner asked curiously when he saw the yellow paint on the girl's face.

"Tanaka." The 'girl' replied in English.

As one of the lingua franca of Myanmar, English still has a very wide range of applications, at least for young people here, who can basically have a simple daily conversation.

"It turns out that this is Tanaka......" Lin Xiao had heard of this thing, and when he noticed this pale yellow 'color' pigment, he felt a little curious.

The 'girl' children told these foreigners that Tanaka is a kind of traditional novel xstxt cosmetics, a kind of neem tree produced in the mountains and forests of central Myanmar, which is made by cutting the sun-dried neem tree into sections, and then using a special stone grinding disc to grind the powder and mix it with water to make a paste and apply it on the face.

It is said that this yellow wood powder can protect from the sun, prevent acne, and keep the skin delicate, and it is an all-natural cosmetic.

Generally, unmarried girls will paint all over their faces, forehead and nose, married women and women will only paint on their cheeks, and children can paint all over their faces.

When this group of foreigners entered the temple, they happened to encounter the ritual of chanting.

At the 'gate' on the west side of the tower, the people's 'flower' ceremony is being held.

In the surrounding naves, there are many devout devotees sitting on the ground facing the pagoda, spreading their hands, closing their eyes, and meditating.

There were also many young girls who knelt down in front of the older monks, not knowing what they were doing, only to learn later that the common people here had to kneel down when they saw the older monks and wanted to solve their 'doubts' or give alms, as a sign of reverence for the Buddha and the monks.

A group of foreigners here, somewhat at a loss, don't know what they should do, one by one just holding their cameras, clicking and clicking busy releasing the fast 'door', recording the most real everything.

After Lin Xiao and others received hundreds of patients, there was basically no business.

After eating, Lin Xiao took He Wei and the Sun brothers to borrow a few machetes from the locals, and then went to the nearby bamboo forest, cut the bamboo, and then dragged it back.

"Boss, what's the use of you cutting so much bamboo?" Sun Quan was a little curious about this.

Although it is said that there are bamboo forests everywhere, and cutting it for a year may not be able to cut down all the bamboos on a mountain, Lin Xiao asked them to carry back hundreds of bowl-thick bamboos in one breath, and did not say what they would use it for, which made people feel a little strange.

"We'll find out later." Lin Xiao didn't say anything, just asked them to carry the bamboo back, and then found a place to stack the bamboo.

After a while, Lin Xiao began to command them, carved out a place for Abbot Xu Fangyuan, and then built a platform for the bamboo, which was about more than a zhang high.

"Is this going to be a Dharma platform?" When He Wei saw it, he asked with some curiosity.

Lin Xiao smiled, shook his head and said, "What kind of Dharma platform, it's just to facilitate things later." ”

When He Wei heard this, he was a little suspicious, he was not an uninformed person, at least looking at the platform built by Lin Xiao, it was a bit like the platform used by Taoist priests in Hong Kong and Taiwan movies, but it was just that he didn't 'plant' the flag and paste the charm.

Lin Xiao himself began to use a machete to split bamboo.

He split the bamboo into one by one, about two feet long and two inches wide, and sharpened the top of the bamboo, which looked like an arrow, and he split hundreds of them in a row, and piled them into a pile.

"What's next?" Looking at these things, Sun Ce asked.

"Next, polish it, then burn it with fire to bake out the sweat inside the bamboo, and then leave it for later use." Lin Xiao instructed, "Let someone get some cinnabar again, and get a few 'hair' pens." ”

Sun Quan wrote these down, and then asked, "Do you want to buy some more incense, candles, paper money, black 'chicken' dog blood or something?"

"What are you doing with that, you treat me as a ghost hunter?" Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "It's just cinnabar and 'hair' brushes, if there is a strong 'sex' liquor, you can also get some back." ”

Sun Quan was very neat in his work, and soon bought back cinnabar, 'hair' brushes and strong 'sex' liquor.

A few others began to light a fire, then scorched the pieces of bamboo, polishing the edges slightly.

The so-called bamboo sweat is actually the moisture in the bamboo.

In the previous poem, it was said, "Keep Dan's heart and sweat." In fact, in order to write words on the bamboo pieces and preserve them for a long time, the ancients deliberately removed the moisture in the bamboo by baking it to facilitate preservation.

"Cinnabar is to be melted with strong liquor and ground into puree." Lin Xiao said to them, "This thing is the best material to restrain all Gu magic and evil arts, the liquor helps to concoct, and it also has a strong yang energy, which has an innate restraining effect on these evil spirits. ”

"Really? That's going to have to be a little bit more spare. When Sun Quan heard this, he immediately started to grind the cinnabar and then soaked it in spirits.

After tossing for a while, Lin Xiao began to make charms, he first used a carving knife to carve a string of seemingly unclear symbols on the burned bamboo pieces, which was neither like the ghost drawing talisman of the Taoist priest, nor different from the mantra symbol of the Buddha's 'door', more like an oracle bone inscription.

"What is this?" When everyone saw it, they all felt a little strange.

Because after dinner, there was nothing left, so everyone heard that Lin Xiao was doing something strange here, so they came over one after another, wanting to see what was going on.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiao not only built the Dharma platform, but also personally 'operated' the knife here and carved spells.

Sun Quan grinds cinnabar into powder, then mixes it into a puree with spirits, and puts it in a jar for later use, and when the lid is lifted, you can smell a very strong aroma of wine and mineral powder.

Lin Xiao didn't hide anything, he just sat there and carved the charm, his movements were very fast, and he carved hundreds of them in a short time, and then asked Sun Quan to throw them into the jar to soak.

"You don't need to apply cinnabar?" Sun Quan asked with some surprise.

He also thought that Lin Xiao had decided to use cinnabar mud to smear the notches of those charms, but he didn't expect that Lin Xiao just asked him to throw the bamboo charms into the wine jar

"That's not necessary, there are too many things now, everything just needs to be simple." Lin Xiao replied, "But you can prepare some dry cinnabar powder, wait until the bamboo has been soaked in the wine jar for two hours, take it out and roll it on top of the cinnabar powder, dip as much as you can, and then put it aside to dry."

Sun Quan nodded and agreed, but he was very skeptical in his heart that this thing could work, and it felt a bit like a child's play.

However, when Master Gangcuo in the temple heard the news, he rushed over to take a look, and he was a little surprised.

"What does the master think?" Commissioner Penlap Natsingh stood aside and asked him with some curiosity.

"It's a very interesting charm, although I don't recognize what it is, but I can feel the power coming from it, very powerful, very dignified." Master Gangcuo picked up a piece of bamboo charm, carefully felt the breath coming from it, and praised it, "I believe that this kind of charm should have a miraculous effect when used to deal with the head descending master." ”

"Is it more effective than the Buddhist vessels in the temple?" Commissioner Penlap Natsinghe listened and asked.

When Master Gangcuo heard this, he glanced at him, obviously thinking that he shouldn't take out the Buddha artifact and compare it to the bamboo charm that Lin Xiao had made improvise.

As a government official in a Buddhist country, Commissioner Penlap Natsinghe didn't sit up straight.

"Gaffes, sins, sins." Commissioner Penglap Nasinghe suddenly came to his senses, folded his hands repeatedly, and bowed down to apologize to Master Gangcuo.

"The role of Buddha artifacts is many, covering almost any direction." Master Gangcuo didn't blame him, but just explained, "But the bamboo talisman made by this Mr. Lin is a very strong 'sexual' weapon against 'sexuality', and it is very effective in dealing with head-lowering masters and evil arts. From this point of view, Mr. Lin's bamboo charm is the go-to thing. ”

The Buddha's 'door' pays attention to a responsive request, so although the Buddha has been worshiped for a long time and is almost a panacea, it is impossible to be all-encompassing and outstanding. UU reads books.

However, these bamboo charms made by Lin Xiao improvised were prepared to deal with the evil descending and descending masters, and their natural effects were more significant.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Lin not only has excellent medical skills, but also can do such thaumaturgy." After listening to Master Gangcuo's explanation, Commissioner Peng Lap Nasingh looked at Lin Xiao and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"The land of China, outstanding people, and geniuses are numerous, which is also normal." Master Gangcuo replied, "You must know that the Gu art itself comes from the land of China, and they have authentic Taoism over there, and they also carry forward the Dharma, which is indeed not to be underestimated. ”

"I hope these spells will work on that evil head descender." Commissioner Penlap Natsinghe folded his hands in prayer.

If Lin Xiao can really rely on these things to dispose of the head descending master, then it is really thankful.

After all, with such an unreasonable evil guy by his side, everyone felt a little uneasy.
