Chapter 16: The Talisman

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, as soon as the sky showed the whiteness of the fish's belly, Hu Yan woke up. But it seems that Hu Yan is not the first to get up.

Outside the door, Zhuang Bai was sitting in the morning light, and Uncle Li was also busy in the kitchen. Wuqiu and Jin Ning'er didn't know why they were arguing.

This sleep was extremely heavy, and there were all kinds of things in the past of him and Wang Qi in the dream, happy, sad, everything......

Although Wang Qi is gone, there is no sadness in Hu Yan's heart at this moment, only endless memories of Wang Qi. Because there are more important things to be done for him.

Coming out of the thatched hut, Hu Yan stretched his waist, and a night's sleep made him feel unwell.

"You're awake!" Zhuang Bai seemed to hear Hu Yan's footsteps, and slowly opened his eyes and said.

"Brother Zhuang is early, didn't disturb you to meditate, right?" Hu Yan walked to Zhuang Bai's side and sat down cross-legged.

"No bother, I just woke up from my meditation. Zhuang Bai squinted his eyes, raised his head, and let the warm sunlight shine on his face: "How is it, okay?"

Hu Yan was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "I'm fine, let Brother Zhuang worry about it." ”

Zhuang Bai nodded: "It's okay, go clean up, we should be on the road in a while." He stood up from the ground as he spoke.

"Brother Zhuang...... I ......" Hu Yan looked at Zhuang Bai who got up, and stopped talking: "Thank you last night." ”

Zhuang Bai smiled, waved his hand, and walked towards the thatched house.

"Hey, stinky boy, you're awake. At this time, Jin Ning'er held a steaming nest head and walked over to Hu Yan with a smile.

Hu Yan glanced at Jin Ning'er and fiddled with his legs. Now he can't do it like an ordinary cultivator, he can only do a single cross-legged.

"Hey, talking to you, why don't you ignore people. Jin Ning'er saw that Hu Yan ignored herself, and walked over angrily.

Hu Yan doesn't have a good impression of this rude and willful eldest lady, not to mention that if it weren't for her, the master wouldn't be hurt. Although Hu Yan looked at Zhuang Bai's face and didn't have the same knowledge as Jin Ning'er, he didn't want to pay attention to this person.

Jin Ning'er saw that Hu Yan closed his eyes and ignored himself at all, so she couldn't help but be angry, stepped forward and pointed at Hu Yan and scolded: "You guy, why are you so ignorant." This girl kindly gave you something to eat. You're so rude to this girl. ”

Hu Yan opened his eyes and said with a calm face: "Then what do you want?"

"I ......" Jin Ning'er was slightly stunned: "Good sex is like a donkey's liver and lungs, and I hate it to death." She stomped her foot, threw the steaming head of the nest in her hand into Hu Yan's arms, and ran away in a huff.

"Inexplicable!" Hu Yan shook his head helplessly, picked up the nest, and hesitated whether to eat it.

For this rude and willful eldest lady, he avoided it, and it was good not to hurt others, could she suddenly be so kind to get food for herself? Didn't she scold her after doing it last night, and she wanted to poison and retaliate?

But then Hu Yan shook his head and denied it, although this girl was a little more temperamental, she acted a little recklessly. It's not so despicable as poisoning people.

Just when Hu Yan hesitated, Wu Qiu didn't know when he came over, and when he saw Hu Yan like this, he couldn't help laughing.

"Nonsense, what, are you afraid of being poisoned?"

Hu Yan smiled and pursed his mouth: "What kind of wind did that girl smoke today?"

Wuqiu shrugged and said, "The ghost knows what kind of wind she smokes, and she follows Uncle Li in the kitchen early in the morning, and she doesn't stop at all." This is not the first nest head that has just come out of the pot, and she also snatched it, and it turned out to be for you. ”

Hu Yan looked at Wuqiu in some surprise: "No, this is what the fierce girl did?"

Wuqiu nodded, squeezed his eyebrows and blinked, and leaned over to Hu Yan and said obscenely: "That's not it, Hu Yan, that fierce girl won't be in love with you." ”

Hearing Wu Qiu say this, Hu Yan couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine, and couldn't help but shudder: "Come on." That guy has eyes above the top, and you say she's trying to hurt me. I guess I'm going to live in the next life. ”

Wuqiu smiled and said, "Who can say exactly about fate." ”

Hu Yan glanced at him and said, "You guy, your hair hasn't grown yet, so you're embarrassed to tell me this?" I think you also took the wrong medicine." ”

Wu Qiu shrugged helplessly and said, "Believe it or not." Uncle Li told us about you and Wang Qi last night, and the fierce girl cried all night. One mutters to you, so pitiful. ”

Hu Yan was stunned and said: "Come on, eat your things, there is so much nonsense." ”

Wu Qiu smiled and said, "Yo, I'm still shy." You won't fall in love with that fierce girl too. ”

"Get out of ......" Hu Yan stretched out his hand to hit, but he reacted very quickly without asking, turned over with a snort and dodged, and ran away as if flying.

Wu Qiu shouted while running: "Hu Yan, this stupid melon is also rippling......

Hu Yan didn't have anything to do, he smiled helplessly, looked at the nest head that still had residual warmth in his hand, and was full of thoughts for a while. He didn't think that the fierce girl would take a fancy to him, but he felt that today's fierce girl was indeed a little different from yesterday, and he didn't know what was different.

Hu Yan shook his head with a smile and gnawed on the nest head in his hand......

After everyone finished breakfast and packed their bags, they left the thatched house under Uncle Li's reluctant gaze and advice, and left the chain bridge that made Hu Yan both happy and sad......

Along the way, Wuqiu and Jin Ning'er kept talking to each other, and Zhuang Bai watched the two laughing from the sidelines. Only Hu Yan followed behind and was silent. Suddenly leaving this village, where he had lived for more than ten years, he was more or less reluctant in his heart, and even worried about the unknown future.

Zhuang Bai seemed to see that Hu Yan had something on his mind, slowed down to Hu Yan's side, and said in a deep voice: "Hu Yan, what's wrong with you?"

Hu Yan glanced up at Zhuang Bai, shook his head and said, "Brother Zhuang, I'm fine, I'm just a little worried about the master." ”

Zhuang Bai smiled and said, "Don't worry, the seniors will be fine." Besides, we've already left him pictures and texts, and when he wakes up, he'll come looking for us. ”

Hu Yan nodded and said, "I know it too, but I'm still a little worried in my heart." ”

Zhuang Bai patted Hu Yan's shoulder and said, "I know what you're worried about, but since you have chosen this path, even if the road is difficult and full of thorns, you have to grit your teeth and go on." Cultivation is not that simple, but as long as you keep a true self, you will be detached. Now that the world is in chaos and there are many demons, it is the time for the people in my Taoist sect to subdue demons and eliminate demons to save the people. No matter how hard it is, we have to do it. Do you understand?"

Hu Yan nodded and said, "Brother Zhuang, I understand these truths, but I'm worried that my cultivation is still lacking, and my cultivation is very low, which will drag you back." ”

Zhuang Bai laughed and said, "Nonsense, you are arrogant." It's true that your cultivation is low now, but in time, you will be able to transcend things and cultivate to your true self. I'm very optimistic about you!" Zhuang Bai is not flattering nonsense when he says this, judging from his experience in practicing for many years, this nonsense has experienced all kinds of hardships in the world since he was a child, and he can still live so freely, naturally many ordinary people, not to mention that now he can worship the real person of Qingyuan Palace as a teacher, he will definitely be able to make a difference one day.

Hu Yan reluctantly showed a smile and said, "Brother Zhuang, thank you." I understand. By the way, I heard the master say that the Maoshan faction is a major sect in the cultivation realm, specializing in using charms to summon gods and ghosts, suppress demons and subdue demons. Your spells must be very powerful!"

Zhuang Bai smiled and said: "My Maoshan faction is actually called the Shangqing faction, because it is located in Maoshan Mountain, so it is called the Maoshan faction. It is also divided into north and south Maoshan Taoism, North Maoshan is the founder, and Maoshan in the south is today's Luofu Mountain in Guangdong, and the founder is Ge Hongxianshi. The Shangqing faction was actually created by Tao Hongjing Maoshan of the Southern Liang Dynasty. In the Northern Song Dynasty, it was the same as Longhu Mountain and Hesoo Mountain, which were the three major Taoist Fu Gong schools, known as the Three Mountains Fu Gong. Because I have sent many great cultivators, I guess I have a small reputation in the cultivation realm. As for the charms, they are the root of my sect to exorcise demons and suppress evil spirits. However, now many sects have also begun to use talismans to exorcise demons and demons, and the exercises are also different. For example, last night, the old-timers used the more powerful Nine Heavens God Thunder Talisman in the talisman, and it is not easy for ordinary people to refine this talisman, let alone use it. I'm afraid even I can't control the power of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Talisman. ”

Hu Yan thought for a while and said, "I've only seen yellow talismans before, is it that the more powerful the talisman, the color is different?"

Zhuang Bai nodded and smiled: "That's right, the talisman is divided into five categories: golden, silver, purple, blue, and yellow, the golden talisman is the most powerful, and at the same time, the caster's Taoism is also the highest, and the power consumed is also the largest, silver is second, purple, Blue is second, the lowest power is yellow, this is also the most common talisman, most of the Taoist priests due to the general understanding, throughout their lives can only stay in the use of yellow talismans on the Tao, if you forcibly cast a high-level talisman, in most cases due to insufficient mana and can not be cast, if it is a chance to successfully cast will also be subject to the crazy backlash of the talisman mana, the light meridians are disordered, half of the body is not successful, and the heavy ones bleed and died on the spot. So what you usually see is the lowest level of yellow symbols. ”

Zhuang Bai turned and said: "Of course, if the Taoist priest is rich, he can also buy expensive gems at a high price to increase his mana, but most Taoist priests spend their lives because they are obsessed with Taoism, they are poor and have four walls, and the money they come to buy expensive gems and high-grade rune paper can only use some yellow runes." The type of spell of the spell is mostly the same as the spell mastered by the caster, because the caster must cooperate with the corresponding spell when casting the spell before it can be cast, of course, there are some spells that do not need a rune or a rune that does not need a way, and the rune that does not need a way can be used by the general public, which belongs to the popular type of rune. However, most of these spells can only scare the little ghosts, and if they encounter powerful demons, they will not have much effect. ”
