Chapter 15: Drawing Symbols
The first time I draw a rune, I have to draw a thunderstorm rune that many runes don't dare to write, and even use rune ink made of thunder fruit, and the challenge is not ordinary.
Most people are so nervous that they can't move.
And Zhou Shu, who was sitting firmly, stroked the cuiyan in his hand, and faced the pressed rune paper, his expression was calm, without a trace of other emotions.
The drawing method of the thunderstorm charm and the flow of spiritual power had been calculated hundreds of times in his mind.
Have a well-thought-out plan.
He picked up the pen and gently put it into the ink bottle, as if he was attracted, and the thunderous rune ink scrambled to climb onto the pen's whiskers.
The tiny electric light is constantly flashing on the tip of the pen, moving the heart, and the slightest confusion of spiritual power will detonate the manic thunder power.
Zhou Shu turned a blind eye and just did the usual.
The tip of the pen was slowly put down, and it touched the blank rune paper lightly, like a breeze, leaving a faint and invisible trace.
With a subtle hook, the emerald smoke pen brought out an almost perfect arc, and the thunder light visible to the naked eye instantly merged with the rune paper. Immediately after that, Zhou Shu's wrist trembled slightly, and he suddenly exerted force, a horizontal skimming full of power, almost rushing out of the rune paper. But soon, Zhou Shu turned the tide, pulled the tip of the pen back, turned and turned, and the manic spiritual power also weakened, converging into a wonderful gossip semicircle.
At this time, Zhou Shu seemed to have entered a state of obsession, everything around him disappeared, and in his eyes, heart, and hands, there was only this pen and a talisman.
Gritting his teeth slightly, the tip of the pen turned out from the other side of the gossip, zigzag downward, like a snake crawling in a winding way. At each corner, the spiritual power that channeled the thunder force stagnated slightly, leaving a hidden node.
And when drawing an arc, the tip of the pen trembles slightly, sometimes light and sometimes heavy. If you look closely, you will find that these serpentine arcs are all composed of dots, and in the middle of each point, there is a trace as thin as a hair. These points all contain the rich thunder power in the thunder fruit, which is almost imminent.
The brush touches the middle and lower part of the rune paper, and the tip of the pen suddenly turns into a horizontal line, straight as a ruler, running through the left and right.
This is the main channel of the spiritual power flow, and it is also the focus of the rune explosion. This stroke seems to be ordinary and simple, but the requirements for the manipulation of spiritual power are extremely high, and most of the spiritual power input is completed in this stroke.
After Zhou Shu finished this stroke, the corners of his forehead began to sweat, and his usually calm and calm eyes were also slightly red.
But his arm didn't move at all, his spiritual power was as usual, and of course his talisman would not be affected in any way.
The thunder on the talisman kept flashing, and there was a faint killing machine lurking. At this time, at the critical moment of making this talisman, if you are not careful, the talisman will explode violently, and the talisman will be destroyed and injured.
And his pen doesn't stop, it's drawing circles. It was like a flowing stream encountering a reef, and under the influence of spiritual power, the tip of the pen swirled constantly, swimming back and forth on the rune paper, drawing a string of circles. These circles are connected to each other and do not interfere with each other, diverting the thunder that makes them gradually calm.
Although this calm, it is only to contain greater power, and exert greater power when it erupts.
It had been interpreted nearly a hundred times in his mind, but it wasn't until he actually drew it that Zhou Shu completely understood the beauty of the talisman.
He became more and more engaged.
Zhou Shu's mind was no longer tranquil and became excited, but this excitement was excellent for drawing talismans. It's a state of enchantment, as if you've dedicated your body and mind to the talisman you've written.
In this state, it becomes easier to draw symbols.
The nib of the pen is like a side of life, smart and lively, as if it is no longer controlled by Zhou Shu, but the nib itself is taking the initiative to walk. It's a feeling of fluidity that you can't imagine without being in it.
Not many runes can do it.
Complex and perfect lines continue to appear on the rune paper, dense like a spider's web, but every stroke is extremely clear. The mysterious pattern is gradually revealing its complete form.
With a pause in his wrist, he pressed down suddenly, and a powerful end point was drawn in the middle of the rune paper.
The most difficult thing to draw is to put the pen down.
As the cuiyan pen was raised, the spiritual power was withdrawn, and the entire rune paper suddenly thundered, like the dawn sun, and the rune paper that originally had a glimmer of light suddenly shining, as if the thunder was about to explode and blow up the entire hut.
But in the blink of an eye, it returned to normal, and the thunder disappeared in the rune paper, and in front of him was a normal-looking talisman.
Only the brilliance that bloomed in an instant remained in Zhou Shu's pupils for a long time.
Zhou Shu breathed a long sigh of relief and sat down on the ground.
His weak spiritual power had been exhausted, and his whole body was soaked with sweat, but his eyes flashed with great joy.
It's finally done!
It worked!
Countless calculations, hundreds of deductions, more than ten years of calligraphy and painting training, a successful realization! Zhou Shu's joy cannot be described in any words.
was as calm as him, and he couldn't help but let out a long howl and express his chest.
Ahh
The pent-up depression of months seems to have disappeared with this long roar.
When the qi veins were completely broken and the genius became a waste material, he did not become depressed, but found the right direction for himself to move forward, drew a talisman, and became a talisman master.
A quarter of an hour later, he regained his indifference, only in that indifference, but with a little arrogance.
He picked up the talisman in front of him and examined it carefully, the rune on the talisman was the same as the one he remembered, but it looked more perfect.
He doesn't know much about talismans, but no matter how he looks at it, this talisman won't be inferior.
Thunderstorm Talisman, a more complex first-order talisman, can form a certain range of thunderstorm area after casting, and the opponent in the area will be hit by dozens or even hundreds of thunderbolts continuously, and the duration and scope of the thunderstorm will be determined according to the quality of the talisman, as well as the power.
The low-grade thunderstorm charm is a range of a few feet in radius, but there are only three or five thunderbolts, and the time is only one or two breaths.
Medium grade, it can reach a radius of more than one zhang, more than a dozen thunderbolts, can last three to five breaths.
As for the top grade, it is twice as much as the middle grade in all aspects.
And the best ......
No matter what kind of talisman, the best is extremely difficult to appear, and many factors are required, such as rune ink rune paper and even weather geography, etc., all of which must be perfectly adapted, but can not be found, even if the excellent talisman master may not be able to draw one in his lifetime.
"It should meet the requirements of the middle grade, make a few more shots, and then go out to test it to see how it goes. ”
Zhou Shu made up his mind, and he didn't waste time, and immediately meditated and breathed to restore his spiritual power.
Half of his weak spiritual power was consumed by just making a talisman, but it recovered quickly. In less than half an hour, he sat down at the stone table again and began to draw the next talisman.
In two days, he drew ten thunderstorm talismans and failed five.
The success rate of fifty percent is already extremely high in the eyes of other talismans, and most talismans can't even reach the success rate of one percent when drawing thunder talismans, but he is a little dissatisfied.
Because the failure was not due to his mistakes, he had incomparably accurate calculations and spiritual control, coupled with a calm and calm state of mind, it was difficult to make mistakes in drawing talismans.
Most of the failures are due to rune paper or rune ink, these things are all handmade, and it is inevitable that there are some differences, uneven thickness and so on, and runes like thunderstorm talismans cannot tolerate a little mistake.
"In such a world, there is no way to solve this kind of thing for the time being, it can only be left to luck. ”
After thinking for a while, Zhou Shu smiled and didn't think about it anymore.
