Looking at the mountains and rivers looking at herself, her face was full of expectation, Zhu Ying smiled slightly, nodded and replied:

"Okay, I'll pass you on the illusion technique now!"

Hearing the other party's promise, Shanhe suddenly became overjoyed, sat opposite, and eagerly waited for Zhu Ying's next words.

But who knew that after waiting for a long time, Zhu Ying did not start teaching, but raised three fingers and asked Shanhe with a smile:

"You've completed the transformation of your physique, and you can practice the illusion technique. But before you practice, you have to tell me what kind of illusion technique you want to learn?"

"Which one?" Hearing this, Shanhe was stunned on the spot, and asked with a twisted eyebrow:

"Master, there are several types of illusion techniques, and what are them?"

"Well, there are three of them. They are high, medium, and low, and the higher the level, the stronger the function, which one are you going to choose?"

The opportunity to study after a lot of hard work, Shanhe certainly does not want to waste it easily. After hearing this, he replied without even thinking about it:

"Of course you have to learn great! I'll choose the advanced one!"

"Well, that's good! It's very discerning!" Zhu Ying nodded solemnly, and then continued:

"The high-level illusion technique is the most powerful of the three. After completing the course, not only can you change nine different appearances, but there is no limit to the shape and gender of the body, and you can change as you like, which is very convenient. Just like the boy who changed the day before yesterday, is a good example. ”

Speaking of this, without waiting for Shanhe to respond, I saw Zhu Ying smile and ask Shanhe:

"Hehe, my grandson Xiaoguang and daughter Zhuxiu were actually played by me. You...... I guessed it a long time ago, right?"

Hearing Zhu Ying ask about this, Shanhe didn't hide it anymore, and immediately nodded. Then, I heard Zhu Ying say again:

"Well, when you asked about Xiaoguang yesterday, I guessed that you were suspicious. Hehe, in fact, I don't have any malicious intentions, it's just that living here for a long time is too boring, and it's not easy to tolerate someone, so I can't help but make a joke with you, you don't mind. ”

"Hehe, Master, you think too much! It's really nothing, I think it's funny. Shanhe shook his head unmindfully, and brought the topic back to the topic:

"Master, can you teach me the high-level illusion technique now?"

"Well, of course. Zhu Ying nodded and explained:

"Although this method is a high-level technique, as long as you have taken the heart of the red-maned beast, it is not too difficult to learn, probably ...... After two or three years of study, you can achieve a small success. ”

"What?"

As soon as he heard that it would take two or three years to achieve a small success, Shanhe was deflated on the spot, as if he had gnawed a bitter gourd, and said with a drooping eye:

"Isn't it? It takes so long to study? Master, as you know, there is only one and a half days left before the selection meeting of Nangongmen, and I, I don't have time to wait for another two or three years. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Ying had an expression of what to do with me, shrugged her shoulders and said:

"If you want to cultivate a high-level illusion technique, it will take such a long time. No matter how talented you are, it can't be less than two years, and I can't change that. ”

"Really, then, how long did you use it in the first place?" asked Shanhe unrelentingly.

"It's a shame to say that it took the old woman nearly three years to master this technique. Compared to my grandfather, it was more than eight months late. As for him, he is the one who took the shortest time in my memory. Zhu Ying replied truthfully.

After learning that the fastest one had also taken more than two years, Shanhe's face suddenly showed a look of disappointment.

He understood that this high-level illusion technique seemed to have no chance for him. I had to retreat and say:

"Then, then I won't choose the high-level one, let's change to the middle-level one!"

"Well, actually, the intermediate level is not bad, it must be enough for you. After nodding slightly, I heard Zhu Ying talk to Shanhe about the efficacy of the mid-level illusion technique.

The mid-level illusion technique can transform a total of five different appearances.

There is still no restriction on the choice of gender, but there is a limit on the caster's body shape, and no major changes can be made.

In other words, the caster can only transform into someone of similar stature. The transformation from an adult to a child like Zhu Ying before can't be carried out.

After listening to Zhu Ying's explanation, a question suddenly popped up in Shanhe's heart:

"By the way, Master, why is there a limit to the number of changes in the illusion technique?

In fact, this question has been formed in Shanhe's mind as early as when he listened to the explanation of the high-level illusion technique. It's just that I forgot to ask for a while, and I didn't say it until now.

Zhu Ying quickly gave Shanhe an explanation:

Illusions are not like illusion-type disguises, and you can change your appearance at will. Because in principle, it's actually closer to dress-up disguise.

It's just that it doesn't rely on props to pretend to be an appearance, but uses mental methods to create a new image in advance, and directly calls it when needed.

Therefore, every "image" of it must be prepared in advance.

The number of spare images is related to the level of the mind. The high-level ones can create nine alternate avatars, and the mid-tier ones have only five.

"Oh, I see!"

After hearing this explanation, Shanhe Fang tilted his head sideways and suddenly said:

"It turns out that the illusion technique is not a temporary change of appearance, but a few 'heads' are prepared in advance! No wonder it's stronger and more durable than several other disguise techniques, so that's the truth!"

Although the metaphor of mountains and rivers is a bit rough, it does not take into account the changes in body shape and voice.

But the general meaning was correct, so Zhu Ying didn't pick any more thorns, nodded and said:

"Well, almost. Okay, have you thought about it, do you want to learn the middle-level mental method?"

Compared with the high-level illusion technique, although the middle-level heart method is missing four changes, and there are also restrictions in the body shape, it cannot be too big or too small.

However, compared to spending two or three more years practicing the advanced mental method, Shanhe was still willing to accept this loss, so he nodded and agreed to the plan.

However, not long after he nodded, he heard extremely depressing news:

The mid-level illusion technique is faster to learn than the high-level one, but it will take at least a year to complete, otherwise it will not be able to cultivate.

This also means that for mountains and rivers, this method is still impossible to practice!

Although he felt helpless, in order to participate in the selection meeting the day after tomorrow, Shanhe had no other choice, so he had to inquire with Zhu Ying about the news of the low-level illusion technique.

And this time, he can be considered smart after the first two lessons.

Before asking other questions, the first question he asked was - how long will it take to learn?

When he heard that the low-level illusion technique could be learned in just a day or two, he breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Zhu Ying about the details:

"Master, that low-level illusion technique...... How many variations can there be?"
