Chapter 147: Spelling
(This chapter is a bit short, I owe you a thousand words, and I will definitely pay it back tomorrow...... )
……
The curse of Slaanesh is unsolvable, but the desire generated by the curse is not unbreakable.
The Sigil of Slaanesh is like a cup, and the desire in it is like water, and if the water expands every day, it will soon turn into a devastating flood, but if the water is drunk before it overflows the cup, then the so-called expansion is not a problem.
It's a simple truth, but it's extremely difficult to implement.
Many people think that people are just tools dominated by desires, and the so-called love is only the manifestation of the desires in the body, but in fact, above the desires, people have a higher, overriding consciousness, which is not a separate thing from the body, but the self itself. The curse of Slaanesh is imprinted in this consciousness.
To dissolve it, one must have a knife sharp enough to pierce the deepest part of the mind.
The heart of the Hehuan Sect is exactly such a knife.
When Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan sat opposite each other and practiced the mental method on the ancient scroll together, their spiritual world had a strange resonance - at first, they practiced their own ways and did not interfere with each other, but gradually, the true qi in the two of them was pulled by a certain force, and it slowly flowed out of the shell, connecting with each other, forming an external circle.
There was a candle flame between them, and the orange flame floating on the candle oil kept shaking, and when the true qi was in a ring, the trembling candle flame also stopped, motionless, like the petals of a flower with smooth curves.
Their clothes are black and white, and when the yin and yang qi are harmonized together, their clothes seem to be dissolved with the true qi and turn into two intertwined lights.
When the two opened their eyes, the smoke vanished.
"Desires vary from person to person, but the essence is the same, they are the rivers in our bodies, and the Law of Accord is a waterwheel erected between two rivers, which can transmit the desires in your body into my body, and I will refine them into pure true qi with my inner ding, and cross them back into your body."
Lin Shouxi said his thoughts in general terms, and Chu Yingchan nodded lightly after groaning, agreeing with this opinion.
Lin Shouxi didn't expect that the crooked and evil techniques in other people's mouths had a natural restraint effect on the curse of slackers, and this nightmare problem that plagued them was about to be solved in an unexpected way......
Of course, they just chose the right path, and there are still many difficulties to overcome in real implementation.
The flames fluttered again.
The two of them quietly stopped their practice, pretending that nothing had happened.
"I'm only on my first day of cultivation, and I'm very unfamiliar with this kind of mental method, and if I really want to implement it at that time, it's very likely that something will go wrong." Chu Yingchan said the first difficulty, looking worried.
"This is not a difficult mental method, you can practice it to such a point just by reading the ancient scrolls roughly, it shows that you are very talented, and I will teach you the key to my own mental method later, you listen carefully." Lin Shouxi lowered his voice and said.
"Is it very talented......" Chu Yingchan was not sure if this was a compliment.
She ran around a lock of green silk with her fingers, wanting to say something, and the red mark on her eyebrows flickered, as if a warning.
Although this spell is not a living creature, it is entered into the rules, constantly monitoring the legitimacy of their master-apprentice relationship, and warning if there is a sign of transgression.
Luckily, it's also very rigid, so it's easy to fool.
"Presumptuous, you have only worshiped the teacher for a few days and learned a few catties of tricks, and you dare to get carried away like this and talk to the teacher on an equal footing?" The hesitation and hesitation between Chu Yingchan's eyebrows vanished, and it was as cold as the snow of the Immortal Tower in the Sky Mountain.
"The disciple doesn't dare, the disciple knows that he is wrong." Lin Shouxi reacted and leaned over to salute.
"Hmm." Chu Yingchan nodded with satisfaction, "How did you practice the Yin and Yang technique that you practiced last time?" ”
"Master has an order, how dare the disciple slack off, these three days and three nights, the disciple can't sleep at night, he has cultivated it completely, and he asks the master to check one or two." Lin Shouxi had a respectful attitude.
"Okay, then memorize it with the teacher first, and if you make a mistake in memorizing a word, you will be beaten ten times." Chu Yingchan said coldly.
Lin Shouxi saw her cold and arrogant appearance of the ice sculpture and snow sculpture, and suddenly returned to the rainy night of the Wu family, he thought about it and said, "Why don't you let the master memorize two sentences first and help yourself get started?" ”
"Less nonsense, fast memorization." Chu Yingchan didn't give him a start, but didn't hesitate to pick up the ring ruler and hit him on the head.
The situation is stronger than people, Lin Shouxi sighed helplessly, and slowly carried it.
"The change of yin and yang, between obscurity, the sun and the moon are light, and the spirit swallows the spirit and flies ......"
Chu Yingchan held the slender black ring ruler and stared intently at the beautiful young man in front of her, her posture was tall and her expression was solemn, but she was engrossed in listening.
Gradually, Lin Shouxi also forgot his mind, and he remembered the scene when he first read this scripture. When he was young, he was not very peaceful, and when he went to the Demon Gate Library to look for books to read, he also liked to buy books from the corners, and when he turned over those ancient scrolls that no one cared about, he always had a nameless joy, as if he had discovered a treasure that no one cared about. But the Hehuan Sutra was not discovered by him from a corner, but he learned it when he was literate.
That day, the senior sister who taught him literacy had something to go out, and put the bookcase in his hand on the table at random, he was curious about what the senior sister looked at on weekdays, so he went to flip through it, and the Hehuan Sutra was harvested at that time, when the senior sister came back, he was reading the book with his hand, and the senior sister did not disturb him, standing quietly beside him, waiting for him to finish reading.
Later, he asked his senior sister why she didn't blame him, and she just said plainly, "All laws have mysteries, and the roots are hidden in them, and the dates you swallowed when you were young will sprout when you don't expect them, and one day you will understand." ’
Lin Shouxi didn't take his senior sister's words to heart, he just felt that the elders liked to play tricks, and always said things that were rough and reasonable, and thought about nothing.
The past came to mind, making people's hearts sway, but Lin Shouxi only recited it expressionlessly. People always exude a unique charm when they focus on doing one thing, Chu Yingchan listened to him quietly, without disturbing, she looked at the young man's handsome face, and slowly, she felt like a flat boat, carrying ups and downs in the rhythm of Lin Shouxi's words.
"That's it."
Lin Shouxi exhaled softly, "Master can hear me clearly." ”
Chu Yingchan closed her eyes, and quickly memorized it silently in her heart, admiring the mysteriousness and magic of this mental method, she also nodded: "Well, there is nothing wrong with it, although you remember it well, you must not get carried away and be lazy in cultivation." ”
"Well, the disciple doesn't dare, as the saying goes, a famous teacher makes a high apprentice, and there is a master three feet above his head......"
"Alright, shut up." Chu Yingchan didn't give him a chance to be angry with himself, "It's not too early, I'm tired of being a teacher today, I'm tired of being a teacher, let's rest first, and the rest will be discussed tomorrow." ”
"Yes, Master." Lin Shouxi replied.
It's really not early.
The watermill has reached the top. On the sundial, this is the sub-hour, and the twelve hours are headed by the sub-hour, which is the beginning of each day.
At the same time, the red mark between Chu Yingchan's eyebrows flashed, deepened by a point, and became more and more demonic, this is only the second day, although the red seal has deepened, Chu Yingchan does not have a special feeling, and it is still demure and ethereal.
She lifted some sleeves, extinguished the candle, and then sat quietly by the window for a moment. The eyes of the high places are open, and the immortal city is reflected in her eyes, like a black and oppressive mountain range, and the tall buildings around them are like peaks, there are countless hidden piles, and birds with wings like pelvic fins are hovering in the air, monitoring their every move.
The giant building has a lot of space, but they only have a one-bedroom living room, and when you open the door of the room, there is a bed inside. The bed is not narrow, but it is only one.
Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan looked at each other, and couldn't help but think of the snowy night when the cloth tent was crushed.
"Luo Chu'e wouldn't have been invited by Chu Miao too, right? I think she is much more reliable than the drama girl. Lin Shouxi couldn't help but say.
"My mother...... I don't think I have that much power. Chu Yingchan thought about it seriously and rejected this speculation.
Speaking of this, Chu Yingchan couldn't help but think of her mother, and she didn't know if the unreliable cheap troupe had told her about it back, although she had never believed in her mother's ability, but after all, her mother had a good relationship with her master, and if she could make her master aware of it, the possibility of them turning the danger into a disaster would be much higher.
Of course, she has learned since she was a child that when she is in a dangerous place, she must not blindly pin her hope for life to others, which can easily turn the dangerous place into a place where bones are buried.
"I'll go out to sleep." Lin Shouxi said immediately.
But there were only two chairs in the hall, and the floor was cold and hard, so there was no suitable place to sleep.
"Forget it, we are all tired all the way here, and now that the catastrophe is coming, why hesitate for these details? It's important to get a good rest, not to mention ......"
Chu Yingchan paused and said, "Anyway, it's not the first time, you and I have a clear conscience, what is there to be afraid of." ”
"Well, Master is right." Lin Shouxi was not hypocritical.
Chu Yingchan slept inside, she put the black ruler between herself and Lin Shouxi, which played an isolating effect, this was the taboo ruler of their master and apprentice, and no one was allowed to cross it.
Of course, they didn't have the heart to go beyond it.
After coming out of the inn, they had not slept peacefully, at this time, their heartstrings that had been stretched to the extreme were finally relaxed, and the feeling of exhaustion came up, occupying every corner of the body, and Qingming's consciousness became blurred and groggy, and it was not long before the two of them fell asleep together.
A dreamless night.
Early in the morning, Lin Shouxi was the first to wake up, he opened his eyes, hesitated for a while before thinking clearly about the current situation, he rubbed his temples, glanced at the white-clothed fairy next to him, Chu Yingchan took off her coat, only wearing a thin plain shirt and a close-fitting white skirt, she was lying flat, her soft facial curve was as quiet as the autumn moon, she closed her lips, and her long and curled eyelashes trembled with her breathing.
He watched quietly for a while, not feeling taboo, but instead gaining a kind of unexplained calm, like lying on the grass, bathing in the spring light, listening to the murmuring of the flower stream by his side.
Chu Yingchan was still asleep, he knew that she was tired, and he was afraid of disturbing her, so he didn't get up and waited quietly for her to wake up.
Then he noticed that the black ruler between them had somehow been skewed.
What happened at night was unknown, but it was by no means a big deal, Lin Shouxi quietly stretched out his hand, straightened it out, and pretended that nothing had happened.
Chu Yingchan's eyelids moved, as if she was asleep and woke up.
Half an hour later, they opened their eyes tacitly, said good morning, and got up to stay.
Chu Yingchan closed the door and tidied up her clothes before letting Lin Shouxi in, she sat in front of a dark mirror, gathered her long hair to her chest, and combed her hair with a wooden comb, the woman's long hair was like water, and the wooden comb slid through it, as if the moon was passing through the clouds.
Immortals have always had no requirements for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and for a long time, Chu Yingchan even replaced sleep with meditation, but last night, she slept exceptionally well after not experiencing the joy of sleep for a long time, and she also had a long dream.
In the dream, she rode on a horse that spouted thunder and lightning from her mouth and nose, stepped through the sky full of tombstones, and ran into the radiant sea of fog, and suddenly, she felt that someone hugged her from behind, and looked down to see that it was a pair of clumsy and immature hands of a little girl, and the little girl called her mother, she was stunned, and also called the little girl's name, and then she woke up from the dream.
"Master, morning."
Lin Shouxi said hello, but saw that Chu Yingchan's expression was not good, as if she was angry about something.
Chu Yingchan sat down quietly, wiped her hands, and turned on the lamp...... Although it was early in the morning, the room was still dark.
"Did you sleep well last night?" Chu Yingchan asked.
"Also...... Good. Lin Shouxi felt a little wrong, and immediately said: "The precept ruler can be learned, the disciple should not have done anything out of the ordinary last night." ”
"Don't be afraid, the teacher just asks casually, don't be nervous." Chu Yingchan said lightly.
"Hmmm......"
Lin Shouxi just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but heard Chu Yingchan say again: "You have been reading a person's name last night. ”
"Who?" Lin Shouxi was stunned.
"Who else can you read," Chu Yingchan asked rhetorically.
Lin Shouxi was also smart, and he quickly understood, and he immediately said, "Disciple, please punish the master." ”
"Reprimand? What's wrong with you? Chu Yingchan asked.
"The disciple dreams at night and recites his name, disturbing the master's rest, and he should be punished."
If you want to confess your sins, there is no excuse...... Lin Shouxi casually gave a reason.
Chu Yingchan was also not polite, seeing that he took the initiative to ask for punishment, she took the ring ruler and slapped his palm, and asked while beating: "Will you still read it in the future?" ”
Lin Shouxi had to answer: "I don't read it." ”
Lin Shouxi was punished again, and sighed in his heart, he only felt that Chu Yingchan's master's temperament was becoming more and more skillful...... It's been like this in just one day, and it shouldn't be like that in a month.
Then, Lin Shouxi practiced a set of rules and etiquette, and Chu Yingchan sat upright and began to instruct him on the cultivation tips of the Hehuan Sutra.
Chu Yingchan is a nominal guide, in fact, she just pretended to say the questions in the name of 'testing him', and then Lin Shouxi answered them for her one by one.
Obviously, Lin Shouxi is the teacher, but he has always been crushed to death, after he finished his painstaking explanation, he had to thank the master for his cultivation, in order to show Chu Yingchan's majesty of the teacher, he even deliberately said two wrong sentences and then took the initiative to correct them, in exchange for a few clear voices from her.
They tacitly performed, becoming more and more proficient, and even the red seal recognized their performance, and rarely flashed again.
From the explanation of the Heart Sutra to the cultivation of sitting on the opposite side, the two of them indulged in it all day, studying the mystical mental method together, completely forgetting themselves, and even forgetting about the Slaanese curse seal.
There are fewer and fewer strangers and mustards between them, and on the third day, Lin Shouxi even helped her comb her hair, and he proudly told Chu Yingchan that Xiao He used to praise him for combing his hair, and when Chu Yingchan heard this, he immediately took back the wooden comb, thinking that he was not combing well.
These occasional bickerings are a short period of relaxation, and other than that, they even sleep thinking about spiritual matters.
Finally, late at night on the third day, the two of them through a whole night of discussion and discussion, based on the Hehuan Sutra, constructed a set of methods for unsealing the seal, and they were about to try it, and the time passed.
Chu Yingchan, who was sitting opposite Lin Shouxi, suddenly froze.
When Lin Shouxi approached, he found that her snow cheeks were red, her shoulders trembled, and her body trembled like a weak willow in the wind.
The Mark of Slaanesh struck for the first time.
