Chapter 35: A Family of Stonemasons (Part II)
"Meet Master Qin. ”
After the old man walked over, he immediately gave Qin Bai a bow, and as soon as this frame came out, Du Xinlian and Lei Shasha were obviously brightly eyed.
Those who can give a set of ancient rituals to the original, then there are only people in the rivers and lakes, especially the old man, although he is thinner than the boy who follows him, but looking at the skeleton, he was definitely the kind of tall and strong giant when he was young.
Qin Bai glanced at the old man with some doubts, he could feel that the old man's appearance here should not be so simple.
Sure enough, the old man Lin on the side quickly spoke: "This master Shi is a family friend of our Lin family, and the Shi family has been a stonemason for more than a thousand years. ”
For more than 1,000 years of stonemason families, even Qin Bai was stunned, because this kind of craft family has a fundamental difference from the Jianghu family, that is, stonemasons have always belonged to the lowly industry in ancient times, and most of them are the older generation who will let future generations change their careers after earning the family business with their craftsmanship.
In most cases, the older generation buys the land with their craftsmanship, lives two generations, and the family has a good life, and immediately passes on the craftsmanship to a rich man with peace of mind, so that most of the heirlooms with craftsmanship in ancient times will not exceed three generations, unless the craftsmanship is too poor, and the ancestors can only rely on this for generations.
But to be able to become a world friend with a big family in a provincial city like the Lin family, it is naturally impossible to be an ordinary stonemason.
Seeing Qin Bai's expression, Old Man Lin hurriedly said: "It is rumored that the ancestors of the Shi family were from Lubanmen, so they have always maintained their status as stonemasons from ancient times to the present, but more of them are actually related to Feng Shui Yin House. ”
Qin Bai was stunned, "Feng Shui Master?"
Unexpectedly, the white-haired old man shook his head directly when he heard this, "It's not a feng shui master, it's just that the ancestors have built a lot of tombs and have some expertise in feng shui yin houses, so they have been using this to pass on the family." ”
Although the old man said it lightly, Qin Bai still heard the meaning of the words, what is a big tomb, and he knows what this word means as soon as he uses it.
Being able to do that in this industry is undoubtedly the top in this industry, especially since Qin Bai had studied this industry a few months ago.
Feng Shui can't get around yin and yang, although Qin Bai's main attack is the yang house, but if he really wants to figure out what feng shui is, this yin house can't be avoided.
At this time, Du Xinlian on the side suddenly spoke: "Let's talk about other things later, let's get the exercises done in advance." ”
Only then did Qin Bai realize that the people around him had gathered more and more, and it was very likely that someone from the previous audience was calling friends.
When Qin Bai saw it, he dared to drag it any longer, and directly took out a small notebook in the front pocket of his chest.
As a cultivator, he must record his feelings at any time, and he doesn't dare to write them down on the Internet at will, so including Qin Bai, the Qi refiners of the Wang Du family almost have a small book in their hands, and they even take out a small book to remember while chatting during ordinary exchanges.
Cultivation is not the kind of practice that is said in the novel, just practice according to the picture, especially the visualization technique of Xuanyang Da Zhou Tianguan, which pays more attention to the perception of the soul, and sometimes the text cannot describe all the content at all, so there is the so-called master who leads the door to practice and see each person.
Qin Bai wrote down the blood alchemy technique that Qin Bai had sorted out in the process of teaching Du Xinlian in his small notebook, including some of his own cultivation experiences, as well as some cultivation experiences generated in the process of teaching Wang Du's several Qi Refiners.
Qin Bai behaved very atmosphericly, and directly handed the small book in his hand to the white-haired old man, in short, the content in it was all fragmentary, and outsiders couldn't see anything famous at all.
The only thing that is complete is the one that was produced in the process of teaching Du Xinlian, which he and Du Xinlian called blood alchemy.
Even this blood alchemy technique can be called a simplified entry version of Du Xinlian's cultivation technique, as for comparing it to Qin Bai's own cultivation, it is at least three layers worse.
The white-haired old man took Qin Bai's small book with a respectful face, and he didn't turn it too far, he only opened the first page, and Qin Bai's blood alchemy was recorded in the first few pages.
Compared with those ancient qi alchemy techniques found by Wang Du's family, Qin Bai's blood alchemy text was nearly three times more, because almost all of the ancients' qi refining classics were written in ancient Chinese, and if there was no certain family history, even if it was handed over to an ancient literature professor, it might not be able to really understand it.
However, the blood alchemy technique that Qin Bai came up with by himself was completely written in modern vernacular, so although the content was not much, there were many words, nearly three thousand words, including a simple picture like a baby crow.
Although Qin Bai's blood alchemy technique was not heavy, it was the same as the Xuanyang Great Zhou Heavenly Meditation Technique, and it belonged to the relatively old visualization cultivation method.
Therefore, the cultivation of this blood alchemy technique not only requires exercises, but also a visualization diagram, and this visualization diagram was drawn by Qin Bai himself through his own dreams.
But compared to the reality of his dreams, the painting was just an outline, and it didn't even show what happened.
Qin Bai naturally wouldn't show the real visualization map, otherwise, with the current technology, let alone a dream, even if he talked about the sky and night, he could copy the picture into a hundred and nine.
The white-haired old man carefully flipped through it, probably roughly calculating the number of words, but the corners of Wang Huai's mouth twitched when they saw the pattern.
The reason why no one in the Wang Du family was willing to follow Qin Bai and Du Xinlian to practice this qi refining technique, the biggest proof was this picture.
Therefore, those who embark on the path of qi refining will know that the most important thing in a visualization technique is the visualization diagram, if the diagram is not good, no matter how good the visualization technique is, it will not refine anything.
Therefore, when they saw this visualization diagram given by Qin Bai, when everyone was directly defeated, this diagram was too abstract.
When Qin Bai saw this picture, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, although he really didn't want to paint the scene in the dream too real, but it was really not his intention to paint it like this.
So when the white-haired old man turned to this page, he couldn't help but say, "When I can draw this visualization, I will tell you about the figure I want to draw." ”
The white-haired old man closed his eyes and seemed to think in his heart, and finally just nodded calmly.
"Master Qin, I don't know where you want to engrave this exercise?"
Qin Bai hesitated a little when he heard this, and he didn't know if it was inspiration or other reasons, he couldn't help but think of the pillar with several black lingzhi flowers.
Qin Bai had been to that pillar no less than ten times during this time, although this pillar had not changed much in the recent period under the suppression of the nine Zhenlong Ding, including a few black lingzhi flowers on the column, Qin Bai could still truly feel the extraordinary features of this pillar.
Perhaps it is indeed as the Du family guessed, this pillar that penetrated into the underground dark river was directly inserted into the dragon vein that was restored later, which could bring such earth-shaking changes to it.
Therefore, Qin Bai has always paid great attention to this column, including the entire column connected to it.
This column may have brought great trouble and even fear to the builders of Jianghai Square back then, so this column is not only thicker than the rest of the columns with the same effect, but the steel and cement used are also obviously different, and even if it reaches the fifth floor of the ground, the size of this column still looks so special.
After thinking about it, Qin Bai finally said directly: "Just engrave it on that pillar." ”
Qin Bai directly pointed to the pillar located in a rest ground not far away, that pillar may be because of its own particularity, so in the later divisions, this pillar has not been enclosed in the wall, but directly established an empty rest center around it, as for the first, second and third floors below, it is mainly used to sell ice drinks.
The white-haired old man naturally couldn't know the special nature of this pillar, he looked at the pillar and nodded directly, and then walked directly to the pillar with the young boy behind him.
Following the footsteps of the old man, the surrounding crowd hurriedly made way of a passage, and Qin Bai and the others simply followed along.
The white-haired old man was worthy of a thousand-year-old family of stonemasons, and when he carefully examined the pillar wrapped in black and bright natural marble, he quickly took out a nail and a hammer from the wooden box behind the stout young man, and then struck it quickly in everyone's face full of surprise.
Qin Bai's mouth opened wider and wider as the white-haired old man tapped.
If Qin Bai's words are just introduced to kindergarten, then the words engraved by the old man on the marble slab are ten out of ten bachelor's level, especially the old man did not use the carving that ordinary people often see, but in a point carving method.
This scene can be said to have shocked the audience, especially Qin Bai, who studied architecture, and it was almost a worship.
Qin Bai directly extended a thumbs up to the old man Lin next to him, and when the old man Lin saw it, he was so happy that he laughed directly.
The white-haired old man's hand was fast and steady, but it took more than 3,000 words for almost three hours, but when the white-haired old man finally left a blank space to stop, the audience couldn't help but burst into cheers and applause.
Even Qin Bai couldn't help but praise the white-haired old man who was a little tired: "The old gentleman's hand is really worthy of a thousand-year-old stonemason family, and when I see you, I know how superficial my understanding of ancient craftsmen is in the past." ”
