Chapter 14: Arduous Practice
Seeing Zhong Cang's surprise, Gu Lingling crossed his hands on his hips and became proud.
"Hmph, I'm shocked, this is your aunt and I came up with the attention myself."
"It's really smart."
At this moment, Zhong Cang's impression of Gu Lingling has completely changed.
I thought she ran out every day to play, but I didn't expect that she was making money.
This is stronger than the original owner, and even Zhong Cang.
At least until now, he hasn't found a way to make money.
"How much can you earn? I'm talking about incense money. ”
"A lot, if you're lucky, you can make two or three hundred small dollars a month."
When it came to business, Gu Lingling instantly became active.
"I asked Xiao Lei and Xiao Ju to find rich and noble people, some generous, and you can reward several incense money at one time......"
"There are also shops on Ping'an Street, I have cooperated with them, I lead people over, every person I go to, is counted as a corner, if we are moved, buy things from them, you can get a small amount of money......"
“……”
Slots, small money, big money, this is the division of incense money.
10 dimes for a small penny, 10 dimes for a big penny.
And the price of the spiritual cultivator Zhong Cang also inquired during this time, and a small bowl of blood rice (the amount of food for a twelve or thirteen-year-old child) is three small yuan.
Two or three hundred small coins is 100 bowls of blood rice.
For Zhong Cang, this is not a small number.
"100 bowls of blood rice is 20 potential points, if all ......"
As soon as this idea appeared, Zhong Cang saw more than a dozen children behind Gu Lingling.
Then, his interest dropped instantly.
100 bowls of blood rice, one point for more than a dozen people, Zhong Cang found that he couldn't even get 10 bowls.
As for eating alone, Zhong Cang didn't want to die yet.
Every child here knows a little bit of Taoism, and it is obvious that the reason why Gu Lingling can lead a group of people to act as guides on Ping'an Street, but there are no adults to snoop on, is because these children are the disciples and heirs of the adults on Ping'an Street.
Zhong Cang dared to blackmail everything today, not tomorrow, that night, he might encounter misfortune.
Sensing that Zhong Cang's interest was not high, Gu Lingling instantly became anxious.
"50, I'll give you 50 small dollars in January, and I don't want you to take care of things, how about it."
"60, no more, this is the limit I can give you......"
"You, 80, I'll give you my share too......"
"Forget it, it's 60, you're still in charge."
"Then it's settled."
Zhong Cang agreed, which meant that his territory was saved, especially Zhong Cang didn't care about anything, he was still the eldest sister, which made Gu Lingling very excited.
Looking at her happy expression, Zhong Cang was a little envious.
For a twelve- or thirteen-year-old child, 60 small dollars is equivalent to about 20 bowls of blood rice, which is not a small amount...... Well, Zhong Cang is the boss, so he can get so much, and the others only have twenty or thirty small money.
But whether it was twenty or thirty, or fifty or sixty, it was satisfying to Gu Lingling, but it couldn't satisfy Zhong Cang.
"Alas, the childlike innocence is gone."
Zhong Cang, who didn't stay with Gu Lingling and the others for a long time, and couldn't find a way to make money, returned home directly and reviewed the knowledge of the talisman, which was to prepare for the study of the talisman in the future.
Soon, the time for the rotation of heaven and earth has arrived, and the sound of chanting resounded from every household on Ping'an Street.
Zhong Cang also recited the Huang Ting Sutra silently alone.
With the recitation, the Jade Emperor was activated, and Zhong Cang's comprehension was naturally raised to the level of peerless Tianjiao.
In this state, recalling the knowledge of the talisman he had learned, endless insights came to his heart.
"Fu Zheng, the heaven and earth combed by the saint ......"
Different from the paper figure technique, the talisman is broad and profound, and even, some people have become immortals with the help of the talisman, and therefore, Zhong Cang can't learn all the talismans, he doesn't have the time, and he can't collect all the talisman knowledge.
Zhong Cang can only learn one talisman at a time.
"In the true solution of the talisman given to me by my grandfather, there are thirteen complete talismans, among them, there are nine kinds that can be learned during the qi consumption period, healing talismans, sharp gold talismans, divine walking talismans, vajra talismans, ......"
"I can't learn all of these thirteen talismans, it's too late."
Although the Jade Emperor, the god of the Purple Mansion, could greatly enhance Zhong Cang's learning efficiency, it was impossible for Zhong Cang to spend all the time activated by the Jade Emperor learning talismans.
He still has to practice, and learn the art of paper figures.
"The talisman I learned should be combined with the paper man's technique, so that I don't need to learn the fire cloud talisman, the wind spell and the like......"
Flexible thinking made Zhong Cang quickly choose four out of the nine kinds of talismans that could be learned.
"The Divine Talisman accelerates, the Vajra Talisman protects the body, the Ruijin Talisman increases the attack power, and finally there is an Evil Breaking Talisman to increase the special attack on the evil spirit."
These four kinds of talismans can take care of almost all aspects of Zhong Cang, so he chose these four.
Once chosen, it's time to practice.
Just like when he was learning the art of paper figures, with the blessing of the Jade Emperor, Zhong Cang was still successful even if it was the first time to draw talismans.
And in the process of drawing talismans, the perception is like a clear spring, and a steady stream of emerges, once the talisman is drawn, Zhong Cang's perception is added to a full thirty points.
After the talisman was written, Zhong Cang took out the folded paper figure and tried to write on it with a talisman pen.
The first attempt, of course, failed.
But even if it fails, in the process, countless perceptions have emerged, and this time, it is the paper figure technique and the perception of the talisman that have increased together.
Writing down these feelings, Zhong Cang began the second, third, and fourth experiments......
After seven consecutive failures, Zhong Cang realized something, and after thinking for a while, he took out a blank rune paper (paper figure) and wrote a talisman on it.
After the writing was completed, Zhong Cang began to origami with this talisman paper.
A few minutes later, a paper figure covered in runes appeared in Zhong Cang's hand.
It's just that after blowing a breath, Zhong Cang found that the two were mixed, not only did the talisman fail, but even the paper figure was not formed.
"Failed again."
Not discouraged, he wrote down the emerging insights, and Zhong Cang began to write for the second time.
In this way, time passed in Zhong Cang's study, or drawing symbols, or origami, or both, Zhong Cang began to experiment again and again.
In the following days, Zhong Cang has also been busy with this matter.
Of course, except for the first day, the rest of the time, he did not neglect the cultivation of mana.
When there were two rotations of heaven and earth in a day, Zhong Cang divided this time into two, and after reciting the Huang Ting Sutra in the morning, he devoted all his mind to breathing and breathing.
In the evenings, his attention was focused on the practice of talismans and paper figures.
The rest of the time, either practice the Five Fowl Opera, or continue to study the talisman and paper figure technique.
It's just that without the assistance of the Jade Emperor, Zhong Cang is just a middle-aged person, and there are very few proficiencys gained in these times.
There are no years of practice, and when Zhong Cang was working hard to practice, eight or nine days passed.
