Chapter 81: Fighting Methods
84_84257 "Okay, I'm ready to eat this bowl of wine today, Brother Dao, please!" After Uncle Li finished speaking, he walked straight to the offering table in the north, only to see that candles, yellow paper, copper coins, apricot yellow flags and other things were placed on it, and the most striking thing was that there were four white paper figures in front of the Dharma platform, and their figures were the same as real people.
Tie Zhu and I have never seen such a formal fighting method, and we are very excited, but seeing the confident appearance of the old man in white, we are very worried about the safety of the master, although the two are of the same age, but Uncle Li's body is obviously much thinner than the old man in white.
Watching the master walk up to the Dharma platform, the two of us quickly followed, standing on both sides of the Dharma platform on the left and the right to act as Dharma protectors.
Seeing that everything was ready, Uncle Li began to light candles and set up the altar.
First, light 36 sticks of incense to worship heaven and earth, insert them above the incense burner to stabilize the foundation; then take three coarse incense sticks to light and worship Sanqing, and insert them below the incense burner as a backer; take eight yellow flags as arrows, and line up the ghosts and gods on both sides; take two large flags as the spirit, and stand on both sides of the offering table as the guide; and finally take a bowl of glutinous rice, boron beans, cinnabar, rice wine, and clear water, and place them in front of you for calling.
I saw Uncle Li tied a hemp rope around his waist, held a bell in his hand, stepped on his feet, recited a mantra in his mouth, and began to ask God to do it.
In the end, I only heard the bell ring, the spirit flag moved, Uncle Li stood firm in T-shaped steps, successfully raised the altar, and stared at the old man in white opposite with his eyes tightly.
At this time, the old man in white had also finished raising the altar, and the two looked at each other, both wanting to grasp each other's inner thoughts from each other's gaze, looking for flaws and attacking.
Judging from his dress and temperament, the old man in white is calm, very steady, and has a very common demeanor, and his body naturally exudes a proud posture.
And Uncle Li looks more like a fashionable little old man, the floral shirt on his body and the hemp rope just tied around his waist do not match at all, and with jeans and Nike shoes, a cynical look, but from his confused eyes, it is difficult to judge his thoughts, let alone when he will attack, it is appropriate to describe him as wise and foolish.
The two sides were at a stalemate for two minutes, and suddenly, the old man in white smiled slightly, his right hand was pinched into a sword finger, and he quickly drew characters on the palm of his left hand in the air.
"Palm talisman!" Uncle Li immediately judged the move used from the other party's movements, and hurriedly picked up a copper coin with the index finger and middle finger of both hands, put it into the water at the same time, recited the incantation, and then threw it at the same time, only to see two golden rays of light coming straight to the eyes of the old man in white.
The old man in white did not panic, waved the palm talisman of his left hand, and a wave of qi immediately shook the first copper coin, and at the same time, his right hand quickly stretched out, opened the sword finger, and firmly clamped the second copper coin, but the copper coin was just dipped in water, and a drop of water on it hit his face, although there was no harm, but it made the original red face even redder.
"I'm sorry, I came in a hurry this time, I didn't bring a gift, this copper coin is even a meeting gift from me to Brother Dao, please don't dislike it!" Seeing that the other party caught his copper coin, Uncle Li said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll take it!" I saw that he really put the copper coin in his pocket, and then took out a talisman from it, and said in a very slow tone: "Since you are guests, then drink some water!"
After that, he suddenly lit the talisman, put it into the water bowl before it burned out, and then quickly took it out and threw it at Uncle Li, only to see a thin line of water flying out of the bowl, closely following the half of the talisman thrown at Uncle Li, like a talisman head water dragon, flying towards Uncle Li quickly.
Seeing the water dragon flying towards him, Uncle Li grabbed a handful of boron beans, grabbed them hard, and turned them into powder, and then quickly threw them into the candle flame.
"Haha, I'm not used to drinking cold water, let's help you warm it up!"
I saw that the water and fire intersected, and a trace of white smoke came out, and the half of the talisman was also burned to ashes, and the waterline that followed immediately lost its strength and fell to the ground.
After two rounds of tentative competition, from the angry expression on the face of the old man in white, there was a hint of appreciation, "It seems that Brother Dao is not a virtual person. Sure enough, there are some skills. ”
"Brother Dao is serious, it's just a small trick, I think so, since it's a competition, then you and I have to show our true skills, how about a happy competition?" Uncle Li said loudly.
"It's exactly what I want!" said the old man in white: "Then let's win or lose in one game, I'll set up a formation here, as long as you break the formation, you will win, how about it?"
"That's a great idea, but I don't know what the rules are?" asked Uncle Li.
"The rules are very simple, my formation is composed of paper figures, talismans, my apprentices, and the formations carved on this bluestone ground, and I am in charge of commanding on the altar. You and your two apprentices, no matter what method you use, as long as you break the formation, you will win!" the old man in white explained.
"Okay, that's it, I've heard that the stone carving formation of the Maoshan faction is very powerful, today I will be taught and taught, please set up the formation!" After Uncle Li finished speaking, the old man in white answered and began to set up the formation.
Most of the formations of the Maoshan faction are based on the formation of characters carved on the ground or on the wall to change the aura of the five elements, and combined with the use of charms and spells, it can produce considerable power.
Because it has low requirements for the environment, is powerful and not easy to be discovered, is very hidden to use, and is easy to be used to do bad things, so the formation of the Maoshan faction is never passed on, from this point of view, this old man in white must be a disciple of Maoshan authenticity.
I saw that he used the seven-star sword to take the Dharma platform as the center of the circle, and began to carve characters on the ground, the movements were very chic, as if practicing calligraphy, and soon a huge circle of characters was distributed, occupying almost half of the entire room.
After that, he returned to the Dharma platform, punctured the index finger of his left hand with a needle, dripped four drops of blood into the cinnabar bowl, stirred well, put his hands together, put the brush in the palm of his hand, and began to draw talismans on the white paper figure.
Cooperate with the action and read in the mouth: "Open your eyes, left yin and right yang, open your ears, you can hear and look at it, copper armor is the shoulder, iron heart ......"
But seeing that his hands were staggered, the tip of the pen was like flowing water on the white paper figures, and on the four white paper figures, characters were drawn from head to foot.
At this time, Uncle Li was not idle here, first studied the character array on the ground with me, and when the old man in white drew talismans on the white paper man to ask God, he also began to draw talismans on the white paper man.
Asking God means summoning some mysterious power through a guò charm, and attaching it to the corresponding person or thing for control according to the requirements of the person who asks God.
The method of the old man in white to ask the gods is the orthodox method of inviting the gods of the Maoshan School, which can give the white paper man a very powerful strength and a strong body, but it lacks flexibility, and it completely follows the content of the characters on the body and the spell of the mage.
The more characters on the body, the greater the range of movement, so each paper figure is densely painted with characters.
And Uncle Li's method of inviting the gods comes from the "Kong Ming Eight Laws", just draw a few simple characters on the paper figure, you can attach the yin spirit to its body, and the action is flexible, only time limit, no range of activity limit, when there is no command of the spell, you can move autonomously, but the disadvantage is that it is not strong and easy to be destroyed.
Tong guò studied the formation on the ground, Uncle Li and I have already worked out a plan to break the formation, and the role of these paper figures is only to interfere with each other, so there is no need to be so strong.
At this time, the old man in white has set up the array, the whole large array is divided into nine small arrays by two horizontal and two vertical four straight lines, the Dharma platform is in the center, and each of the three small arrays in front of it is a paper figure, and the apprentice of the old man sits in the small array at the bottom left of the Dharma platform and closes his eyes and is silent, and a paper figure is placed next to him.
I saw the old man in white standing in the middle, holding three sticks of incense in his hand, and began to worship the heavens and invite the gods, and read in his mouth: "The sky is clear and the earth is spiritual, the blood spirit listens to the order, and you are the god, in line with the decision, borrow the spirit of the law, the spirit and blood general, obey the law and listen to the order, and immediately follow it, and the divine soldier is as urgent as the law!"
After reciting, he stomped on the ground with his right foot four times in a row, only to see four white paper figures move at the same time, asking God to succeed.
"Brother Dao, I've kept you waiting, now that the formation is complete, I'm waiting for you to break the formation at any time!" said the old man in white with a peachwood sword in his hand.
"Okay, then I'll start breaking the formation!"
After that, he lit the four spiritual runes in his hand at the same time, recited the incantation silently in his mouth, and finally shouted loudly: "Hurry, Disease, Disease!" I saw the spirit flag move, and the four paper figures seemed to be injected with souls, and followed my iron pillar to the front of this method.
According to the plan just discussed, I took the sky thorn in my hand and attacked the paper figure on the right.
It turned out that that direction was where the "opening" of the entire large array was located.
"Open the door" is the northwest corner in the direction, and it is the "dry" position in the Nine Palaces of Luoshu, which makes great use of the march to fight.
Zhuge Liang led his troops to attack the Central Plains, and the reason why he had to send troops from Qishan was precisely because Qishan was the northwest corner of Middle Earth;
During the Long March, it also launched a counterattack from Yan'an in the northwest.
Therefore, even if you don't know the formation laid out by the opponent, you can't go wrong by choosing to attack from the open door.
Seeing someone break into the formation, the paper man immediately reacted, waving his arm and hitting me horizontally on the shoulder.
I hurriedly dodged sideways, and at the same time tentatively slashed at the paper man's arm with the sky thorn, only to hear the sound of "dang", and actually hit, but I felt that my arm was numb, and the sky thorn was almost touched.
I thought to myself: "This is a paper man, it is clearly a steel monster, although it is clumsy, but it will be dangerous if it hits it!"
Thinking of this, I had an idea, and I took out a fire spirit talisman from my waist, and after dodging an attack, I quickly knocked out the talisman and stuck it on the paper man's chest.
On the fourth floor of the Tower of Death, a great battle between the Maoshan faction and the Taiping Gate is unfolding.
I was the first to enter the battle, engaged in a fierce battle with the steely white paper figures.
At this moment, he waved his hand, and a fire spirit talisman was hitting the white paper man's chest.
"Poof!", I saw a golden flame burst out of the yellow rune, burning on the chest of the paper figure full of characters, but it was extinguished in an instant, and it seemed that the fire did not work on the paper figure with the talisman on it
