Chapter 61: Cursive Limitations

"Why are you looking at me? Talking about you." Li Ranran, who was eating fruit, saw Liu He looking over and said indifferently. But seeing that the two of them were not talking, he wiped his mouth and asked, "What? You want to talk?"
What? Am I inconvenient?"
Seeing this, Liu He shook his head and said to himself: Just now, he was talking about how he had tricked someone, but now the real person is sitting here in front of him without changing his expression. He is indeed worthy of the little devil of Rongcheng.
Liu He thought about it as he opened the letter and said, "You can do whatever you want, there's nothing inconvenient about it."
Zhang Lin looked at the general furnishings in the room, made a general evaluation of Liu He, and said, "I didn't expect that a person like Master Liu would actually know Teacher Li."
"Hey!" Liu He didn't say anything, but Li Ranran was unhappy when he heard the words: "Little brat, tell me clearly, what do you mean: a person like Master Liu actually knows me?"
"Isn't it?" Zhang Lin recalled his words with confusion, and then said seriously: "I was right!"
"You..." Li Ranran was about to get angry. Liu He looked at Zhang Lin and smiled slightly: "He asked you to come? Do you want to learn Kuangcao?"
"He..." Zhang Lin reacted and said, "Are you talking about Grandpa Jue? This is the letter he wrote."
When he heard it was Zhang Jue, Li Ranran also stopped. Liu He said: "You haven't said it yet, why do you want to learn Kuang Cao? His calligraphy is not bad, and his handwriting is more suitable for a general like you than Kuang Cao."
Students, after all, most of the people you have to deal with in the future are people in the officialdom, writing documents, so calligraphy such as regular script and running script is better, and cursive calligraphy is somewhat inappropriate and requires a lot of force."
"Oh! This!" Zhang Lin said: "Personally, I feel that the wild cursive writing makes it look domineering."
"Zhang Jue said everything!" Liu He shook the letter in his hand and looked at Zhang Lin with a smile.
"Um..." Zhang Lin rubbed his nose in embarrassment and smiled. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jue actually explained everything, so he had to answer honestly: "I've been learning how to make talismans recently, but I can't get it right, so I want to start with calligraphy.
…”
Liu He frowned and said: "So you want to learn Kuang Cao? Use Kuang Cao to make talismans in one stroke?"
"Is there something wrong?" Zhang Lin frowned and said, "I think if the talisman is made in one go, the talisman patterns will flow smoothly and the quality may be improved to a higher level."
Li Ranran on the side said: "Little kid, you are not the only smart person in this world. You are not the only one who has thought of this trick for thousands of years, but no one does it now. Do you know why?"
Zhang Lin wondered: "Why?"
"Why?"
Li Ranran said: "Let me ask you, what is the most important step in making a talisman? It is to inject spirit into the pen.
This is a piece of talisman paper. The most important step is to seal the god into a talisman. If it fails, the talisman paper will spontaneously ignite and explode. At worst, the talisman pattern will be broken and the talisman will be invalid.
When writing to inject spirit, you use your spiritual thoughts to seduce Qi to form rune patterns on the talisman paper, so that the Qi in the rune patterns resonates with the Qi between heaven and earth.
When used, the qi on the talisman will detonate the qi of the same attribute between heaven and earth to achieve various effects we need.
Kill enemies, defend, teleport, heal, etc...
Therefore, making talismans is a process of consuming one's own God and Qi to build a resonance frequency with the Qi between heaven and earth. When a qualified Talisman Maker makes a talisman, his own God and Qi and the rune patterns on the talisman paper are
Inevitably linked.
Therefore, if the talisman maker fails to make the talisman when making the talisman, he must withdraw his spiritual thoughts as soon as possible and cut off his connection with the talisman pattern.
If it cannot be retrieved immediately and the talisman-making fails, the talisman-maker will not only have to face the violent explosion caused by the failure of the talisman to seduce the energy between heaven and earth, but the divine will will also be affected by the inability to control the explosive energy at the first time.
Injured, I say that, do you understand?"
Zhang Linda said: "I understand, but what does it have to do with me learning cursive writing? As long as I make the talisman in one go, it will naturally not cause any spiritual thoughts to go out of control and energy to explode."
Liu He said: "This student, making talismans requires extremely spiritual energy. What you draw now are at most some high-grade mortal-level Taoist talismans, and you may have also used some spiritual-level Taoist talismans.
The reason why you don't feel it is because you are born with strong spiritual thoughts, but as the level of drawing talismans increases in the future, the powerful spiritual thoughts cannot support you.
Let’s take the introductory talisman seal script and five-element talisman for making talismans as an example. If you only draw ordinary fire talisman, wooden talisman and the like, you may be able to draw more than ten talismans in a row, but for water and fire talismans that are incompatible, you may not be able to draw them.
Unable to write, let alone the three-talent talisman of earth, fire, and wood, and the ultimate five-element talisman.
The essence of cursive writing is to complete the work in one go. If there is any pause, the success will be ruined. Using it to draw symbols is tantamount to asking for death.
When you draw a symbol in cursive, you have only two choices left at the beginning, either not to draw it, or to draw it in one stroke.
Once you pause or break in the middle, a violent backlash awaits you. With the wild speed of cursive writing, you will not have time to take back your spiritual thoughts."
Li Ranran said: "If Qi is compared to fierce horses, then the spiritual thoughts are the reins that tie the horses. If Qi is compared to the torrent, then the spiritual thoughts are the flood dams. The runes only guide the fierce horses in which direction.
Chong, where does the river flow?
When making talismans, once your spiritual thoughts are exhausted and you are still unable to decide how the fierce horse will rush or how the river will flow, the Qi will become violent, like a fierce horse breaking off its reins and a river bursting its banks.
Let me ask you, once you fail to make the talisman, how can you control those runaway horses and burst the river with your few remaining spiritual thoughts?
At that time, your mind will be like a broken rein and a washed-out dam.
If others fail, they will be injured. If you fail, you will be an idiot at the least, and die on the spot at the worst.
Oh, by the way, let me tell you, the reason why the death rate of Talisman makers is so high when making Talisman is because they need to immerse their spiritual thoughts into the Talisman when making Talisman. Therefore, once the production fails, it will be like you using wild grass to make Talisman, and you will become an idiot.
Or die suddenly. Therefore, I am not completely sure that a talisman maker will never make a talisman, even if it is very powerful and can be used repeatedly."
Zhang Lin sat down frustrated, "So, this way won't work."
Li Ranran shook his head and said: "Young people should not aim too high. The most important thing is to be down-to-earth. Learning cursive script is not useless, at least when you draw a talisman of the level of Fanpin, you will definitely master it quickly.
Therefore, learning cursive writing is the basic combat method for every Talisman master. We tell you this because we are afraid that you will be desperate to draw advanced runes after learning cursive writing.
I think your grandpa Zhang Jue asked you to learn cursive writing just because he wanted you to learn the fighting methods of a Talisman Master.
But the difference between the two, judging from the carelessness of that old guy, he definitely never told you."
"You guys seem to know Grandpa Jue very well?"
Recalling that Zhang Jue really only asked him to learn cursive writing, but did not warn him of the dangers of making talismans, Zhang Lin believed Li Ranran and Li Ranran.
But between the lines, Li Ranran seemed to know Zhang Jue better than she did, having been with him day and night for more than ten years.
"Understand?" Li Ranran said: "Little brat, where does our seniority come from Zhang Jue? You have to call us grandma, because we are both in the same ancient cultivation class as him.
Liu He is still his deskmate, do you think we can't understand him?"
"Ah..." Zhang Lin looked at the two people dumbfounded. They looked like they were only in their twenties, but they were actually his grandmothers. Sure enough, for a woman who cultivates the world, you would never guess her age by looking at her appearance.
