Prosperity through farming

Chapter 57

Xiaohan shook his head and poured cold water on them, "You all forgot to think about it from Grandma Qiao's point of view, she already owes Patriarch Lu a big favor, if she chooses the master, and then troubles Patriarch Lu, if you are her , are you okay with it?"

"Eh? That argument makes sense," Han Lu finally calmed down, nodded and admitted, "That's right, there are quite a few people who have talismans, and she doesn't have to choose among those who don't have talismans. She owes an extra favor. "

"Brother," Jing Zhe was very unhappy, "Why do you..."

"Since everyone is concerned about the outcome of the magic weapon's selection, of course all aspects must be considered carefully." Han Lu glanced at Jing Zhe, "You can't just take it for granted." She stretched out her hand, "It's time for the private school, let's go in quickly. "

Stepping up the steps outside the private school, Xiaohan looked at the two brothers suspiciously, "It's so strange, I don't remember how I got into the private school a few days ago!"

"This is normal. When you enter tranquility, you only have a vague impression of everything you do, and you won't remember it very clearly." Zhang Hanlu smiled, watching Jing Zhe pull down the pebble hanging by the door first, and jumped in. The gate, I think he wanted to discuss what Xiaohan said just now with his friends. "Go in quickly, didn't you say that you still have to learn how to draw symbols from your husband today?"

"Oh, yes," Xiaohan jumped up the steps, stood in front of the gate and turned around again, "Brother, are my eyelids still swollen? Can't you see it?"

Han Lu laughed out loud, "Okay, I can't see it for a long time."

Sticking out her tongue at her elder brother who was making fun of her, Xiaohan pulled the pebble and stepped into the door.

Today, Xiaohan was running fast on the steps inside the door. She really couldn't wait to learn how to draw talismans. As long as she finished drawing the five talismans printed in her mind, she would be able to throw away the dirty cattail bag. This is the best reward.

Rushing into the room where the husband is, the husband is already waiting for her.

The first sentence is also, "I finally left the country," the gentleman smiled happily, "It's the first time I received a talisman, and I was able to enter the country for so long, and you were the only one in the past hundred years. Even your father was not so good back then Comprehension, it seems that Xiaohan is smarter than your father, well, he probably followed your mother."

Xiao Han also smiled happily, "Sir, should I teach me how to draw symbols today?"

"Well, don't worry, let's practice Qi first, and after training Qi, I will teach you how to draw talismans." The gentleman pointed to the futon on the ground.

Xiaohan sat down and meditated obediently.

It's strange, today's qi refining is very smooth, originally it took a lot of effort to concentrate to let the spiritual power in the body flow, but today it's just a thought, and the spiritual power flows naturally, and it goes round and round smoothly and smoothly. Hurry up, it's much stronger than before.

Unknowingly, Xiaohan made a breakthrough, and when she finished her skills, she suddenly realized that it seemed that the spiritual power flowed for more than nine weeks just now, right?
The husband smiled again, looking very happy, "Very well, after leaving the country, there will definitely be a breakthrough. I didn't expect Xiaohan's breakthrough to be so strong, and he has been able to practice for eighteen weeks."

No wonder, after receiving the exercise today, I feel that there is a lot of aura, and it even overflows to the upper side of the abdominal cavity except for the main exercise route. The feeling of the aura naturally overflowing is great.

"Hey, Xiaohan, you have to remember that you have to do two sets of physical exercises before practicing Qi in the afternoon, that is, in addition to the nine movements you are practicing now, you need to add another nine movements. Remember to let Zhang Si teach you when the time comes." Mr. with.

Xiaohan jumped up and nodded again and again, "Okay, sir, I remember it. Should I teach me how to draw symbols?"

"Well, it's time to learn how to draw talismans. If you learn the five runes soon, it's time to learn more advanced skills." The gentleman nodded, "Come on, Xiaohan, come to the desk. Take your talisman pen and blood bottle Take out the cinnabar and the talisman."

Xiaohan carried the dirty cattail bag, and took out the utensils for drawing symbols that had been prepared a long time ago.

"Pour some cinnabar on the talisman plate first." Mr. instructed, and Xiao Han obeyed obediently. The so-called talisman plate was just a white porcelain plate with a lid made of bamboo turned upside down.

Taking off the bamboo cover, pouring some cinnabar on the white porcelain plate, Xiao Han tilted his head and looked at Mr., waiting for him to continue.

"The blood in the blood bottle," the gentleman glanced at the desk, "Xiaohan remembers that when he gets the blood for drawing symbols in the future, he must store it in the blood bottle as soon as possible, because the blood bottles are all refined, which can ensure that the blood in the bottle The freshness of the stored blood. By the way, Xiaohan, do you remember which bottle is chicken blood and which bottle is dog blood?"

"Remember," Xiaohan took out one of the three blood bottles on the table with a dog-shaped pattern engraved on the cap, "this is black dog blood," and picked up another bottle with chicken feet on the cap, "this It's rooster blood," the last bottle had a cap in the shape of a rooster's comb, "this is the blood from the rooster's comb."

"I only use dog blood today," the gentleman nodded, "five drops will be enough."

Xiaohan poured blood obediently.

"Don't be in a hurry to cap the bottle, come on," the gentleman smiled, "The other use of this bottle cap is to grind and mix blood and cinnabar. Now you are using the most basic ordinary cinnabar, just use a bottle Just press the blood into the cinnabar. After a while, the talisman is well drawn. When you use the century-old cinnabar and the thousand-year cinnabar, you will know that the aged cinnabar will automatically condense into particles, and you need to use a bottle cap to put it into pieces. It needs to be crushed to mix evenly with the blood."

When the husband said this, Xiao Han was already stirring the cinnabar and dog blood with a bottle cap.

"Well," Mr. looked at Xiaohan's technique, "It's almost, Xiaohan, you move so fast, I haven't finished talking yet, stir the blood and cinnabar to transport the spiritual power to your hands, and then pass through the bottle cap to let yourself It’s a little trick, and I won’t tell anyone else, although it’s not necessary, but after doing this, it will be easier for you to use its talisman.”

Xiaohan was not amused, and gave Mr. a blank look, transported the spiritual power to the fingers, and then went towards the bottle cap through the fingers - no wonder the blood bottles are all refined, when the blood cinnabar was mixed with it, it was stained on the bottle cap The red stain at the bottom, when Xiaohan's spiritual power arrived, it automatically dripped towards the talisman plate. When Xiaohan touched the bottle cap with the talisman plate, it felt very subtle that the spiritual power was overflowing into the red liquid below.

"It's enough to mix it almost thoroughly. If you stir too many times and the talisman material is too dry, it will affect the drawing of the talisman."

Xiaohan nodded, put the cap back on the bottle, picked up the talisman pen, and looked at Mr. .

The gentleman pointed to the talisman paper on the desk, "Huh? The talisman papers are all loaded, that's good, remember to bring the loaded talisman papers in the future."

Xiaohan hadn't noticed it yet, but when her husband mentioned it, she realized that the talisman paper was packed in a square shape, which was different from the first talisman paper she saw that was the same size as rice paper and rolled up in a whole roll. It should be her mother who made it for her Loaded, um, go back tonight and learn to load by yourself.

"Here, take a piece of talisman paper and put it on the table," the gentleman continued, and Xiaohan continued to do the same.

"Fu pen, take the one that suits you," Mr. said a little vaguely, seeing Xiao Han puzzled, he elaborated, "It's the one with the most smooth spiritual power, no matter how big or small it is."

Xiaohan tried a talisman pen, and the one with the smoothest spiritual power was the second smallest one in a set of five.

"Come on, get the talisman material," the gentleman's expression became serious, "Think about the talisman you want to draw in your mind first, and then write."

Haven't taught strokes yet?This thought only flashed, and Xiaohan still followed the teacher's instruction, thinking about the first rune imprinted in his mind, and then, the tip of the pen fell on the rune paper, and it was done with one stroke.

"Okay!" Mr. nodded again and again, and patted Xiaohan on the shoulder, "It really is a good talent, not many people can succeed in drawing a talisman for the first time."

Xiaohan looked down, her face wrinkled into a ball, "Successful? So ugly?" She was about to scream, this is really called ghost painting.

"Drawing talismans is different from writing," Mr. laughed at her disdainful expression. "The criterion for the failure of drawing talismans is the uneven distribution of spiritual power. Can you use spiritual power to draw it?" He pulled a piece of talisman paper and took it After passing Xiaohan's talisman brush, I only tapped a little on it, and then pulled out a blank talisman paper, and pulled the talisman drawn by Xiaohan over, three sheets in a row, and put them on the desk, "Xiaohan, come, try it, Use your spiritual power to feel it, and you will know what kind of talisman it is, and the painting is complete."

Xiaohan listened to the teacher and obediently passed the three talismans one by one. There is no spiritual power on the blank talisman paper. She knows this. It is covered with a thin layer of spiritual power, and this layer of spiritual power overflows from the rune as the core, but every time it overflows to the edge of the rune paper, it is pulled by the rune to prevent it from leaving the rune. out of paper.

But the talisman paper that was only dotted a little, there is also spiritual power in that obvious spot, but the spiritual power on the talisman material is constantly spilling out, leaking out from the talisman paper into the air.

"I see," Xiaohan nodded, "The painting is completed if the spiritual power is evenly distributed and does not spread out? Sir, how do you use this talisman? And how do you know if the talisman is easy to use? "

The gentleman smiled slightly, "Girl, it's not good to be impatient. As for you, learn to draw first. Once you have drawn the first set of five talismans smoothly, I should teach you the second set of meridian movement exercises. Wait for the second set." Since the practice has started to change careers, you have to go to the talisman test room to practice talismans every afternoon. Remember to keep the talismans you draw now. When the time comes, put them together for a test. What is it like? There are many things about practice that cannot be explained clearly in words, and can only be clarified by proving them with facts."

"Huh?" Xiaohan understood a little bit, "It's like Dad put together the paper I practiced on the first day and the paper I practice now, so that I can know how much I have improved, right?"

"Yes, that's what it means," Mr. nodded, "So, Xiaohan, don't worry, draw the talisman first, and remember to put it away in the morning and evening when you finish drawing. Generally speaking, if you draw the talisman today, at night, use the normal Wrap the rice paper and write the date on it. Do this every day. After a long time, you will be able to compare the difference between the good and the bad ones. Come on, since Xiaohan draws Fu so easily, come on, put the last four Try a rune too, let me see."

Xiaohan nodded, licked the pen, closed his eyes, calmed down, and traced with one stroke. The three runes were very smooth, only the last one. The spiritual power twisted, and then, Xiao Han felt the spiritual power on the talisman paper, like a hole in a barrel, and it burst out.

"Aw!" Xiaohan picked up the talisman pen angrily, and patted his forehead with the other hand, "It was just a little bit." Grabbed a piece of talisman paper and continued.

On the third piece of talisman paper, Xiaohan finally successfully drew this rune. She let out a deep breath, so happy, and the "sense of accomplishment" is unparalleled!
Mr. nodded, "Not bad, I was able to draw all five runes for the first time, and you were also the first. Very good, Xiaohan, remember to practice when you go back. By the way, Xiaohan, do you know the five runes?" The meaning of the text?"

You didn't tell me?Xiaohan raised her head in surprise, met Mr. Shang's smiling eyes, and understood that Mr. was testing her, "I feel that the first talisman means soil, and the last four are also related to soil. Don't you, sir?"

Mr. nodded again and again, "It's good to have this kind of comprehension. What are the functions of these five talismans? You will know when you use them yourself. Don't worry, there is a reason why you are not allowed to try the talismans now. If it is not helpful to your practice, the private school will not make such regulations."

The husband put away the whole set of talismans for Xiaohan, "There is another rule, Xiaohan, you have to remember, in the private school, the students in the dormitory on the left, whoever wants to see your talisman, can't let them see it, remember?"

"Understood." Xiaohan nodded, this rule was counted when Zhang Si refused to show her the talisman he drew.

"Okay, then, Xiaohan, practice hard. You can't let go of calligraphy practice in the morning. Practicing calligraphy is also helpful for drawing symbols. Remember." Give up and go.

"Sir, now that I can draw five talismans, can I use the magic weapon for storage?" Xiao Han tentatively peeped at the face of the gentleman.

"This, sir, don't teach it. Go back and let your parents teach you. The usage of each storage magic weapon is slightly different, but after you have learned the five sets of Qi-refining meridian exercises, sir will teach you again." Teach it once, and what I taught at that time was the unified exercise that can be used by all magic weapons." The teacher smiled and watched Xiaohan push open the door of the schoolhouse, "I won't go in, you take the things in by yourself Bar."
