Prosperity through farming

Chapter 113

Master Xing Ming's face flushed, and he looked at Zhang Hoe with a troubled expression, obviously wanting him to make up his mind.

Zhang Hoe really didn't know what to say, "Uncle great-grandfather is still so sincere."

"Not really." Master Xingming stroked his beard and replied honestly, "Actually, my accumulation of merit is not too slow, and I don't need to take special care of it in the village. Therefore, since your daughter came up with this idea, the merit should be counted. on her."

Zhang Hoe was speechless again, looking at Zhong Lanyu with a wry smile.

If Master Xing Ming wasn't so sincere, he wouldn't have been thrown into Shang Kingdom to be the national teacher.

In the land of wealth and honor, practitioners have strong spiritual consciousness. Just by scanning the spiritual consciousness every night, they can learn about the private affairs of many rich and noble families, and it is easy to shake their minds.

Of course, there are also benefits. After all, in the human world, and the practice of the city god in the capital of the Shang Dynasty is carried out by the practitioners of the Zhong family, it is very easy for the city god and the national teacher to join hands to accumulate merit.

Because of this good and bad, and the fact that Shang Guo has a relationship with Zhang Tianshi, the person who takes on the role of the national teacher must be the person with the most simple heart and the most determined heart in the village. , People who have difficulty accumulating merit and virtue.

For 60 years like this one, I found real Xingming after picking and choosing. This person is very famous among the elders and juniors in the village school. He is too honest. It is rare to touch the threshold of "Tao" in the late stage of Jindan - it is precisely because he has found his "Tao" and is going to be a national teacher that the village school will make an exception and let him who has not entered Yuanying be appointed. Dao number!

The most irritating thing is, now that the beard is covering him, he can't tell, but he still has a baby face!Coupled with that honest face, it is so difficult to go out to accumulate merit. Everyone just wants to love him and protect him when they see his appearance, and no one will ask him to help him with difficult things.

In addition, he started with astrology and divination, and no one was willing to take him on missions in a team—no way, from his appearance to the direction of his practice, he gave people a feeling that he needed to be taken care of carefully.

Obviously his practice direction is very useful when traveling in the mainland, but he is clumsy and can't explain clearly.

He could only stay in Xiaotian Village and practice until he entered the late stage of Jindan, and he could no longer accumulate merits. It would be difficult in the future, and it happened that the term of the first national teacher was up, and his practice direction was also suitable, so the village school let him go. Arrived at the position of the national teacher.

Every national teacher will serve a term of sixty years, and his cultivation is basically in the Jindan period, because the Yuanying period is a relatively special stage. When entering the Yuanying period, he can reshape his appearance, and this is the real stage The sign of the Dao of cultivation, the reshaped body at this time, will be this appearance until the Ascension to the Immortal Realm, so before the Nascent Soul Stage, no matter how old you are, you are not afraid.

When he really reached the position of the national teacher, his merits increased rapidly. Astrological divination is very useful for sensing disasters in various places. Often, before the disaster occurs, he can see from the astrology that King Shang can do it in the first time. With good preparations, and the help of practitioners from Xiaotian Village who traveled in the Shang Kingdom, except for those who are destined to die, it can be guaranteed that all the people who have not yet reached the time of reincarnation will be saved.

In this way, his merits and virtues will be considerable.That's why he said what he said now.

Seeing that her parents had nothing to say for a while, Xiaohan looked at Master Xingming, "Bo Zeng Gaozu, when I came up with the idea of ​​this utensil, I already got a first level of merit. It’s too much, it’s not necessary.”

"Eh? The merits have increased again?" Zhang Hoe and Zhong Lanyu were stunned for a moment, "Why didn't you tell us?"

"Eh? Didn't I tell you guys?" Xiao Han was also taken aback, "Didn't the big brother and the second brother rush to tell you that night at dinner?"

"What you said that day was just a few things you came up with," Zhong Lanyu remembered most clearly, "Didn't you say that the invention of these utensils would increase your merits?"

"Huh? Didn't you say it?" Xiaohan didn't remember clearly, "I didn't say it, maybe it's not important?" She really didn't think it was important.

"Cough." The clear cough was made by Zhang Tieli. Seeing that the family of three was talking on their own, leaving Daoist Xing Ming aside, he, a junior, should help a little, right?He would follow because he was afraid that uncle great-grandfather would be too clumsy to get things done.

"Oh," Xiaohan finally turned his eyes to Uncle Bo Zeng Gaozu, "If you really want to thank you, then send me a made utensil and ten matching portraits? That's enough, I also I didn't come up with this utensil just for Bo Zeng Gaozu, but just happened to think of it."

"Little girl's random thoughts," Zhang Hoe continued gently, "Don't worry too much about Uncle and Great Grandfather, she has already gained merit for it, so it's not something you imagined that the secondary school did to increase your merit. , Therefore, cause and effect are not involved, if you really feel uncomfortable, just wait until later, when she travels abroad, I will calculate the luck for her."

Reverend Xing Ming was obviously relieved, especially when he heard the words "I didn't do it specially for you", he smiled happily, "That's good, that's good," he wiped his forehead, "We still have to count I owe the little girl a favor, if there is anything I can use, please don't be polite."

When encountering such an elder with extremely low EQ, who speaks directly and acts out of order, Xiao Han feels sorry for Uncle Tie Li, and his throat is about to burst from coughing.

"It's okay," Zhang Hoe looked over with a smile, and said to Uncle Tie Li at the same time, "Everyone knows Uncle Great-Grandfather's temperament."

is not that right?Even the court of the Shang Dynasty knew it well - if it wasn't for the cultivator's strong spiritual sense and the protection of the city god, he would have been deceived into breaking the harmony of heaven.

Finally, Uncle Tie Li said a few suitable words, and left with Master Xingming. No matter how you looked at it, his back seemed to be running away.

After they all ran away, the four people present, including Lu Zesen, laughed loudly. This national teacher is really...

囧!

Apart from this word, there is really no other suitable word to describe him.

"Why are you smiling so happily? Huh? Ze, you came here before us? Could it be that you have something to do this afternoon, so you came to our house?" Han Lu and Jing Zhe walked in, and they also came back from school.

"I was brought out by my uncle. I didn't expect my uncle to find me. In addition to bringing me something from home, he also brought me to your house." Lu Zesen turned to Zhang Hoe and his wife at this time, after all Both of them were older than him. When they were talking, it was completely out of his turn to intervene. Now that their business is done, and Han De Jingzhe has returned, it is his turn to talk about his visit today. Purpose, "Now I know, he mainly wants to give me the newly refined device that can automatically pull hair, and he also wants to give me a little advice on the refining device. However, in fact, if my uncle didn't bring it, I would be the same today. I’m here to find Han Lu and Xiao Han.” He smiled at Zhang Hoe again, “Uncle Hoe must be interested too, the kind of thin-headed talisman that Xiao Han envisioned last time has already been refined. Today uncle helped me bring the finished product A big bag, but this is something I designed, of course he won't take it verbally."

"The fine-tipped talisman, have you refined it?" Zhang Hoe and Zhang Hanlu said in unison, very pleasantly surprised.

"Yes," Lu Zesen blushed with excitement, "If it wasn't for the fine-tipped talisman, my uncle would use it, and he wouldn't think I'm qualified to listen to his teachings, now," appeared out of nowhere in his hand A wooden box, open it, "I specially left this for Hanlu Xiaohan and Uncle Hoe. Of course, I also prepared a box at the Sun's house, and I will send it to them later. This kind of talisman is not only used in battle It is very useful in the design of the method, even in the design of the utensils in our Lujiazhuang, it is much more delicate than drawing with a brush."

Before Xiaohan saw what was inside the box, he saw his father and elder brother holding the box and studying the contents carefully.

"It's good if it can be used." Xiaohan also walked up, poked his head to look, it was his own idea anyway, "Huh? It looks like this."

That pen was covered by a pen cap, and the eldest brother had already taken out one, which was thicker than ordinary writing brushes and longer.

Han Lu took off the cap of the pen and looked carefully, only to find that the whole pen looked like a jade tube, only the nib was made of metal, "How do I use this? Is it a talisman pen? Can it be filled with ink?"

"It's all right," Lu Zesen was very proud, "We have tested both, and both are fine. Just dip the nib into the talisman material or ink, and it will automatically absorb the talisman material and ink until the storage space inside is filled. , "Flipped over and took out a box, "Hey, in order to match this kind of pen, we also developed this kind of ink together with the Ge family. It can be used directly without grinding, and it is specially used for this kind of fine-tip pen."

"Huh? Only ink, no special talisman material?" Jing Zhe asked carelessly.

The three people who had studied the formation all gave him blank looks and talked nonsense.

"Everyone has their own favorite consistency and ratio in blending ingredients, so there is no research on this aspect yet." Lu Zesen shrugged at him.

Jing Zhe "cut", "Since the ink has been prepared, why don't you think of a way to make a talisman that everyone will like? Didn't you think of it?"

Lu Zesen looked back at him innocently, "This kind of ink is also the secret recipe of the Ge family. It is said that it is specially prepared from the fat of several kinds of plants. The talisman can only be prepared with cinnabar and animal blood. The family has not studied this aspect, and the Lu family can't think of anything that can replace these two..."

"Jing Zhe, don't force your words." Zhang Hoe looked at the pen and was very satisfied.

try it?Xiao Han and Han Lu looked at each other with this meaning in their eyes, and they started to attack very simply, completely ignoring the fighting spirit of Lu Zesen and Jing Zhe.

Xiaohan took out a jade bottle from the ink box, tsk, it was the same as olive oil, five hundred catties a bottle.

Opening the mouth of the bottle, a faint smell of grass and trees came out, which was quite pleasant. She put the pen in her hand, and the tip of the pen penetrated into the bottle, and the metal part at the front was completely submerged in the black water. Soon, the jade bottle The ink in the tank dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In less than half a minute, the drop of the ink level stopped, and the black ink could be faintly seen in Ruyu's pen barrel.

When Xiaohan took the pen out of the jade bottle, the metal of the pen tip was as clean as if no ink was left, and it was not stained by black at all.

Pulling out a piece of rice paper, Xiaohan took a pen to write on it. The tip of the pen was more flexible than the pen in the previous life, more like a disposable ink pen with a soft plastic tip. The thickness of the written characters was not much different from the pen in the previous life. Very comfortable and smooth.

really not bad!
When Xiaohan tested the pen with black water, Han Lu was already grinding the talisman material, but how much talisman material does it take to grind this kind of pen to fill it up?

Zhang Hoe directly gave him a porcelain brush that was placed on the desk. Tsk, this is the first time he has adjusted such a large amount of talisman materials. He used to be afraid that the talisman materials would dry out after a long time. This time, Han Lu ruthlessly poured down three catties of black dog blood, half a catty of cinnabar and kneaded it into powder, drew a rune in the air, squeezed a formula with his hands, and the red viscous liquid in the brush He began to roll it up, and to be on the safe side, he let it stir for nearly 5 minutes before poking the tip of the pen into the talisman material.

In less than 2 minutes, the barrel of the pen was faintly red, and all the talismans in the brush were sucked out. Han Lu couldn't help asking her friend, "How much can this barrel hold?"

"Ten catties," Lu Zesen said lightly, "Even if you draw a high-level formation, you won't be afraid that half of the drawing will run out of symbols."

"Will the talisman stick?" What Zhang Hoe was worried about was this. "If you use it once, you have to clear the tip of the pen the next time you use it, that would be boring."

"No," Lu Zesen was confident, "We have tried it. The material for the nib is specially selected by the Elves, and a special formation is set on the cap to prevent it from condensing, but just to be on the safe side." , For a pen filled with talismans, before opening the pen cap, inject some magic power into the end of the pen barrel, and there will be no problem in using it."

"Really?" Zhang Hoe really didn't believe it, "The talisman Yi Ning is an old problem, can it be solved so easily?"

"Yes," Lu Zesen's face was still blushing, "I only thought of it when I made this kind of pen this time. In the past, the Lu family also made special ones for the Jing clan that were filled with sun essence, moon dew, and even emperor liquid. Containers, you know that those two are also very easy to dissipate spirit matter. This time, this method is used on the pen barrel, so that it does not leak at all except for the nib. Just pay attention, once it is not used, immediately cover it back With the cap on the pen, the talisman will not freeze."
