Zhao Hai waited until the man left, then he turned to those who were following him: "Everyone will try to make a substitute yourself. There is no need to proceed to the third step. As long as you can combine the first two steps.
Just finish the steps, let’s get started.” Everyone agreed and immediately started making the straw man.
It is actually not difficult to make a straw man. It is not difficult even if it is divided into three layers. The most difficult one is probably the outermost layer. The main reason why we need to weave that layer together is also for the second step.
The substitute array is convenient, so it is really not difficult to make this straw man. After a while, everyone has made a straw man. This straw man may be ugly, but it is beautiful in different ways, but Zhao Hai did not
Not caring, he glanced at everyone and said: "Actually, I'm afraid you won't need to make this kind of straw man in the future, unless there are special circumstances, because even if this kind of straw man needs to be mass-produced and made, it will not be used in the future.
You can let the farmers make it. You just need to make a request, and they can make a qualified straw man. Today I let you make a straw man, just to let you feel the process of making a straw man.
Of course, the more important thing is to allow you to make the second step. In fact, in terms of the entire substitute production, the second step is the most critical, because if you have not drawn the substitute circle, then the substitute will
Absolutely no use."
Everyone agreed, and Zhao Hai then took out a large piece of paper with a substitute array drawn on it. Zhao Hai then said: "You must memorize this substitute array and draw it.
Come down, because you will always need this magic circle in the future. I know that some of you can draw this substitute magic circle, but even if you can draw it, you have to draw it again, and you must draw it well.
." Everyone nodded, and then began to draw this substitute magic circle on the straw man.
After they finished drawing all the substitute arrays, Zhao Hai looked at them carefully and finally pointed out their shortcomings. Some of the symbols on the substitute array would break when they were drawing them.
There are many reasons why this phenomenon occurs. One of the important reasons is that the quality of the straw figures they make is not good, and the outermost layer of straw is not flat enough, so it is easy for the pen to break.
Apart from these, they did not make any mistakes in drawing the substitute magic circle. Zhao Hai asked them to practice the substitute magic circle again until they all memorized it, then they stopped.
Just when those people learned how to make a straw substitute, the warrior who Zhao Hai had made for him came in from outside. After he entered the room, he saluted Zhao Hai and said: "Sir, just now
I have already tested it, and the substitute you made for me is indeed effective. I just killed a person from the demon path, and the demon curse on the master did fall on the substitute, not me." After finishing speaking,
He also took out the straw man substitute that Zhao Hai had made for him before. On the left forearm of this substitute, there was indeed a grimace.
Zhao Hai glanced at the substitute, then nodded and said: "Okay, you can keep this substitute with you for a few days, and then burn it at some time." The warrior responded, then turned around and left, and this
At that time, everyone in the room had their eyes shining brightly. For them, seeing it with their own eyes really made them believe in the role of the substitute even more.
Zhao Hai glanced at everyone, and then said: "Then I will talk about how to make a clay avatar. This kind of avatar is relatively more advanced. I am just demonstrating it to everyone."
Zhao Hai walked to the side, where there was prepared clay, and Zhao Hai started to make it directly. After the making was completed, he directly drew the substitute magic circle on the clay stand-in.
After the production was completed, Zhao Hai then continued: "At this point, the stand-in can only be considered half-finished, because it must be burned in the fire, which will make the stand-in harden.
, after it is burned, and when it is time to use it, put the user's birth date, blood, and hair into the avatar, so that it can be used, and this avatar can absorb ten curses. After absorbing ten curses,
This avatar will break into pieces on its own, and the birthday characters inside will also be burned away. This is a relatively high-level avatar. It is said that the production is more complicated and more expensive than a straw avatar, but this
After the avatar is made, there should be no chance of it being unusable, and more curses can be absorbed. We will not burn the avatar. You can conduct experiments in this area on your own after you go back."
Everyone nodded, and Zhao Hai then said: "The biggest use of the substitute is actually this, it is to help you absorb the curse of the devil, so that the curse of the devil will not fall on you. Of course, the substitute also has shortcomings.
His shortcoming is that you can't take out the curse of the devil in the avatar again and refine it into your true body-protecting spirit. I think this is a bit useless for you. You probably don't know how to use it.
There is a substitute."
Everyone chuckled. They have high status in their respective families. Naturally, it is impossible to use a substitute. What they are more interested in is the Ghost Control Card. That is their goal.
, so they all looked at Zhao Hai, because they knew that Zhao Hai might be talking about the Ghost Control Card next.
Zhao Hai glanced at them, then smiled slightly and said: "The reason why I told you about the substitutes is actually not to let you use the substitutes, but to send money to your family. When I say this, you may not be very familiar with it.
I understand, but think about it, the fact that avatars can block the curse of the devil has not spread yet. Only you know about it, and your family should have a chamber of commerce, right? If you make a large number of avatars, then
Take it to the Chamber of Commerce and buy it. Whether it is straw substitutes or clay substitutes, you can make a large number of them. When selling, you can tell the other party how to use and activate the third step. I believe that
There will definitely be a lot of samurai coming to buy it. This is a big business, and a substitute is a consumable and can be treated as a long-term business."
When everyone heard what Zhao Hai said, they were stunned at first, and then their eyes lit up. They really had not thought of this before, but now they suddenly thought that this could indeed be regarded as a business.
, and it is also a long-term business. This business will bring huge benefits to their family, which is definitely a good thing.
Zhao Hai looked at them and didn't talk about this matter. Instead, he continued: "Okay, I'll tell you about the substitutes here. Next, let's talk about the Ghost Control Card.
The Ghost Card is actually just a name I made casually. Its main function is similar to that of a stand-in, helping you absorb the curse of the devil. However, the Ghost Control Card has one advantage over the Stand, that is, you can use the Ghost Control Card to
The curse is released and then absorbed into one's own body, refining it into a true body-protecting spirit. This is the greatest benefit of the Ghost Control Card."
When everyone heard what Zhao Hai said, they all became energetic and looked at Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai smiled slightly, then pointed to a piece of wood placed in the room and said: "It is best to use locust wood to make the Ghost Control Tablet."
It is made from a locust tree that is more than a hundred years old. The reason why locust wood is used is that locust tree is a shady wood. It is easier to attract ghosts, so it will be more attractive to curses. This kind of locust wood token is made.
It's very simple, just take out a piece of wood, make it look like you like, and then carve the substitute circle on it. When it's time to use it, you put a drop of blood on the wooden sign, and then use your own mental power and true energy.
, just refine the wooden sign, no need for hair, no birth date, it’s that simple.”
When everyone heard what Zhao Hai said, everyone was stunned. They really didn't expect that making the Ghost Control Card would be so simple. Zhao Hai looked at their expressions and smiled slightly: "Of course, I want to make it."
There are also certain things to pay attention to when it comes to the Ghost Control Card. The most important thing is that the magic circle on the Ghost Control Card is best drawn with cinnabar. Even if you engrave a substitute magic circle on the Ghost Control Card,
It would be better to put a layer of cinnabar on the magic circle, so that the effect will be better. Other than that, there is not much else that needs attention."
After finishing speaking, Zhao Hai said to everyone: "What we are going to do now is actually another experiment, that is, to see if we can make the ghost-controlling tablets without using locust trees or cinnabar, but only using metal.
Make suitable ghost-control cards, and what kind of ghost-control cards have the best effect. Of course, because these ghost-control cards are defensive, it is best for us to make more ghost-control cards.
Then let outsiders test it to see which kind of ghost control card has the best effect. After all, we can't create a demon curse out of thin air."
Everyone was stunned, and then they all nodded. They understood what Zhao Hai meant, and wanted to test the effect of the Ghost Control Card. In fact, the most important thing was to see if the Ghost Control Card was really easy to use, and if they wanted
To carry out such an experiment, one must go to someone who is a demon-killer. There is no one here who can release the curse of the demon.
Then Zhao Hai gave the order and they started making the ghost-controlling tablets. Of course, the ghost-controlling tablets they made this time were very simple. All kinds of metals were used to make the ghost-controlling tablets.
Then carve a substitute circle on it, and inlay other metals in the substitute circle.
But making such a ghost-controlling tablet is not as good as making a substitute. Making such a ghost-controlling tablet is a delicate job, so it will take longer. One day is not enough, so wait until night,
Before the metal ghost control cards were produced, everyone went back.
Zhao Hai returned to his study and began to write a report, including the production of the stand-in and the stand-in business. He even wrote down the entire process of the stand-in business. In Zhao Hai's opinion,
This stand-in business is a big business, and it is a big business that can bring livelihood to many people. Take straw stand-ins as an example. The making of straw figures can be done by farmers, and the drawing of stand-in circles can be done by the city.
It is done by some people who can draw, and they only need to sell it. In this way, both farmers and those in the city who can draw can make a living. This is definitely a good thing.
