Volume 1: Ashes Chapter 42: Abrupt Request
Small deep courtyard, old locust tree.
Ling Xiao took a sip of fragrant tea and sighed, "Dao Chief, it took me a full month to increase the power of the Fireball Technique by about 20%, and the success rate of talisman making is still less than 30%. I want to continue to improve, but I seem to have encountered a bottleneck. ”
These are his gains in the past month.
Practicing so desperately, only increasing the success rate by less than 10%, Ling Xiao was very dissatisfied.
Who knew that Xuan Jizi heard this, but frowned and said: "Ling Xiaoyou, the success rate of thirty percent is already extremely good. ”
"Huh?"
Ling Xiao was stunned.
"Presumably, Xiaoyou's attainments in the fireball technique have also reached an extremely deep realm. Your understanding, poor Dao life only seen, admire! Xuanjizi said solemnly.
"Huh?"
Ling Xiao was stunned for a while before asking, "I read the book that an excellent talisman maker can achieve a success rate of about forty percent in making a first-order talisman!" ”
Xuan Jizi smiled dumbly, "What you said is the standard of a mana monk. The Body Forging Monk is a little constrained in mana comprehension, and the success rate of thirty percent is enough to show that your comprehension is extraordinary! ”
Ling Xiao smiled bitterly secretly.
I see.
It's really not that he is in Versailles, but he doesn't understand that forging the body is different from cultivating the law.
[This kid, really doesn't have a teacher's guidance? 】
[I can't believe it! 】
The old locust tree snorted, his tone a little complicated.
It has lived for thousands of years, and has seen all the amazing and brilliant disciples of the Qingfeng View in the past dynasties, but at this moment, it has to admit that Ling Xiao's achievements are not inferior to those people and the mysteries in front of him.
Hearing these words, Ling Xiao couldn't help but see the shadow of the Shen Flower in front of him.
He only realized at this moment that in fact, Yu Shenhua had instructed him a lot.
Although most of these points were made through ridicule, it was true that they really helped Ling Xiao!
It's a pity that Ling Xiao was immersed in the obsession of proving it to the Shenhua Xu, and ignored this point, until he listened to the words of the old locust tree, and then realized it!
This guy ......
Ling Xiao gritted his teeth secretly.
Pointing is pointing, mocking something!
No wonder the grass edge is so bad!
"I always thought I was far from it." Ling Xiao sighed.
"Hehe, don't be presumptuous. Xiaoyou's comprehension in the talisman is enough to laugh at the windy city. ”
Listening to people praise themselves is cool!
Ling Xiao was cool for a while, and he didn't forget the original intention of coming over today, and asked, "Dao Chief, I want to ask, can I make talismans in Qingfeng Guan?" ”
Xuan Jizi was a little confused by this request, and asked, "Where are the talismans, aren't they all the same?" ”
Ling Xiao said solemnly: "No! When I was at home, there were too many mundane things to distract, so I always wanted to find a secluded place and devote myself to the study of talisman making. It's good for me to see the clear view of the wind, can the Taoist master grant me this request? Even if you want to collect my rent, it doesn't matter! ”
Xuanjizi smiled: "I see. Okay, anyway, in the Qingfeng Temple, there are many spare rooms, and the little friend can choose at will. As for the rent and the like, there is no need to mention it! ”
"When the Taoist chief usually makes talismans, do you usually make talismans? Is that all there is to it? ”
Seeing Xuanjizi nodding, Ling Xiao made an inch, and asked cheekily, "Can I also make talismans here?" Then he looked at Xuanjizi with a blank eye.
"It's not impossible...... Does the poor road need to be avoided? ”
"Everything."
Ling Xiao was overjoyed, and then immediately took out the talisman drawing tool, and actually began to draw the talisman on the spot, looking impatient.
Xuan Jizi was at a loss by his series of strange behaviors, and he couldn't leave, nor did he stay.
No, this is my Taoist temple!
Xuan Jizi figured out this section, so he simply stayed and saw what Ling Xiao was going to do.
Talismans do need to be pure, but they also need to be in a familiar place, right?
Xuan Jizi was very suspicious that Ling Xiao had another purpose, but he didn't debunk it for the time being, and waited and saw what happened.
However, Ling Xiao is really just a talisman.
The drawing is still his most proficient at the moment, the fireball talisman.
As soon as the pen moved, the old locust tree next to it began to comment.
[The penmanship is smooth and skillful, rare, and it is a ...... who has worked hard]
[This stroke is not good enough, the divine sense is too restless, and it seems that it is going to fail......]
[Huh? Actually adjusted back? Interesting ......]
Pen, stop.
A fireball charm, drawn successfully!
Ling Xiao was ecstatic.
Sure enough, as he expected, the old locust tree easily understood his many problems in talisman making!
The reason why he made such an abrupt request to Xuan Jizi was for this!
That's great!
Ling Xiao was overjoyed, but he did not forget his original intention, closed his eyes, and silently comprehended the process of drawing the talismans just now, especially the points raised by the old locust tree, which were very easy to ignore.
Although he corrected it in time, the quality of this fireball talisman was also slightly affected, and it was not so perfect.
In order to avoid such a problem next time, it is essential to keep it in mind!
Xuan Jizi looked at this fireball talisman and then at Ling Xiao, and the suspicion in his heart became even worse.
Is it really just a talisman?
A first-time success?
It's a bit lucky, but I almost failed several times just now.
After thinking for a moment, Xuan Jizi's heart moved slightly, and he got up and said: "There are still things to deal with in the poor road, Xiaoyou just need to draw a talisman here, if there is any problem, just go out and find a disciple to convey it." ”
"Good!"
Ling Xiao agreed, but did not open his eyes.
Xuanjizi left with doubts, and after going out, he called Ma Ying.
"What? Is he going to make talismans in the view? ”
When Ma Ying heard Ling Xiao's request, she was also stunned, and immediately thought: "Master, could it be that he is a spy sent by another to steal the inheritance of my Guanzhong?" ”
Xuan Jizi said in a deep voice: "It is indeed possible. ”
Ma Ying's eyes were shining, and Sen Ran said: "Since this is the case, why don't we ......"
"No!"
Xuan Jizi interrupted him with a wave of his hand, shook his head and said: "It is indispensable to defend against people, but you can't wronged good people for no reason." You wait here, wait and see, find any problems, and report to me in time! ”
"Obey the Master's orders."
At the same time as the master and apprentice of Xuanjizi were talking, Ling Xiao's second fireball talisman drawing was also over.
This time, it still worked!
And the old locust tree also gave him different guidance this time.
Ling Xiao realized that his previous talisman making process had so many luck elements!
He never noticed these problems pointed out by the old locust tree!
Sometimes if you're lucky, you get it right, and if you're unlucky, you get it wrong.
Then he ignorantly called himself a talisman maker, and he didn't understand the key to it.
Thinking about it now, Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Go on!
The production of the fireball charm is far from the limit!
……
Time flies.
More than 1 hour later.
The mana in Ling Xiao's body was exhausted, and the talisman system was interrupted.
It's not too early, it's time to go back.
Ling Xiao got up and packed up his tools.
[Something is wrong with you kid! 】
[Something is wrong!] 】
[Didn't you say that your success rate is only 30%?] 】
Beside it, the old locust tree let out an incredible exclamation.
Ling Xiao made a total of 11 talismans and succeeded 5 times!
There is obviously a huge gap between this success rate and the success rate mentioned by Ling Xiao!
