Talisman feet usually appear in the form of patterns.
It is mentioned in the Qixuan Talisman Scripture that the talisman feet of low-level talismans have no meaning at all. They are basically the kind that can be painted or not. If they are missing, it will not affect the talisman.
The reason why it is said that talisman feet will affect learning to draw new talismans is because on those high-level talismans, the talisman feet usually appear in the form of cipher text, that is, the talisman maker will use the talisman feet to encrypt the talisman.
After encryption, it takes a lot of time to decrypt it before it can be learned.
The lower part of the gall bladder of the Qixuan Arrow Avoidance Talisman can actually be regarded as a type of encryption.
Since the arrow avoidance talisman is relatively low-level, Qixuanmen dared to boldly add it to the lower part of the talisman gall. Moreover, in order not to affect the effectiveness of the talisman, they also deliberately kept away from the upper part of the talisman gall.
This encryption method is extremely difficult to use after reaching advanced levels.
The talismans of high-level talismans are extremely complex and precise, and it is almost impossible to change them.
Talisman of this level are all encrypted through the foot of the talisman.
As for the specific encryption method of the talisman feet, Lu Zhong has not seen the Qixuan Talisman Scripture explain this in detail, probably because it is only an introductory inheritance, so the knowledge that is used by high-level talismans is basically covered in one stroke.
Turning the page further, you will find the six basic skills of a Talisman Maker.
They are to master the runes, the "eight methods of Yongzi" and the brush strokes, as well as the method of making rune paper from rune grass, making rune skin from animal skin, and the method of mixing rune ink.
"So this is the so-called basic skill?" Seeing this, Lu Zhong thought that this basic skill is really basic enough.
However, it is indeed necessary to master these six basic skills.
As long as they master them, the Talisman Maker can be said to have sole control of an industry chain.
In this way, we can produce and sell our own products without having to worry about being controlled by others.
Flipping further back, they are all fragments of pages with unclear content.
Burned by fire and eaten by insects, it is not difficult to imagine what this "Seven Mysterious Talisman Sutra" has experienced before.
There were several pages in the middle that were complete. Lu Zhong took a closer look and found that they were the methods for making the Qixuan Arrow Avoidance Talisman.
"His Qixuan Arrow Avoidance Talisman really comes from here!"
After reading the Qixuan Talisman Scripture, Lu Zhong felt that he had gained a lot.
There is no doubt that as long as you calm down and master the six basic skills, it is estimated that there will be no difficulty in the first-level talisman.
Without further ado, he immediately started learning the runes.
…
Early the next morning, Lu Zhong chose to go out early and went straight to North Street.
If he wanted to get some information, Tongfu Tea House was his only choice.
As soon as I entered the door, I received several looks.
Someone recognized that it was Lu Zhong who came in. They sensed the fourth level of Qi Refining in him, and their expressions changed slightly, but they immediately thought of Lin Zhongze's disappearance.
There are many people who are concerned about Lin Zhongze's disappearance.
Especially those casual cultivators who have swallowed up a lot of benefits are even more concerned about this.
There have been many speculations about this matter. Some say that Lin Zhongze was picked up by a monster when he went out at night, and his life and death are still unknown. Others say that he was fascinated by the ghosts wandering in the wasteland, and may still be lost in the wilderness.
Somewhere in the wilderness; what's even more outrageous is that some people actually say that he died on the belly of the young lady of Yichunyuan.
As for Lu Zhong, many people also doubted the talisman maker.
After all, his story of killing the Chihu Assassin was widely spread in Qingliufang.
However, suspicion was suspicion, and no one would go through the thankless task of reporting Lu Zhong. After all, doing so would not only gain no benefit, but would also offend a Talisman Maker who was in the middle stage of Qi Refining.
If he really did it, someone might one day be behind his back and use his head to please Master Lu Fu.
The purpose is probably for a few free talismans.
Things like this have not happened before, especially the enemies of weapon refiners and alchemists, as demand has always been in short supply.
"It turns out it's Master Lu Fu. You're welcome from afar... You're welcome from afar!" The teahouse owner, who usually didn't show up at all, showed up at this time and said politely with his hands in hand.
The monks in the middle stage of Qi refining are all important figures in Qingliufang and cannot be treated like the monks in the early stage of Qi refining.
"You're welcome, Shopkeeper Tong, I just want to inquire about some information." Lu Zhong returned the greeting with an cupped hand.
"No problem!" The chubby shopkeeper Tong said with a smile on his face: "Come, please invite me to the private room upstairs!"
Dong Dong Dong went upstairs, and the two of them soon arrived at a tea room.
When a pot of tea is brewed, the aroma of tea fills the room.
"Master Lu Fu, please have some tea!"
"Then I'm not welcome!"
Lu Zhong lightly opened the tea cup and took a sip. His eyes suddenly lit up and he couldn't help but praise: "Good tea! The aroma is fresh and tender, the taste is fresh and sweet, it is indeed a good tea!"
To be honest, although this tea is ordinary tea, the taste is so good that the price is probably as high as that of Qing Bi Ling tea.
"Good tea must come from someone who knows tea..." Hearing Lu Zhong's praise, shopkeeper Tong's face lit up with joy. After all, he grew this tea himself.
After some tea tasting, we got to the point.
"News about the general's tomb?" Shopkeeper Tong frowned when he heard this. He thought for a while before replying: "I have a lot of relevant news here, and there are also many contents that are relatively secret. I will wait for you later.
I’ll have someone make a copy and send it to fellow Taoists, and I’ll take it from you...the Five Spiritual Stones."
Before Lu Zhong could say anything, he continued: "But it's not a good place there. I advise fellow Taoists not to go there, especially the area of the main tomb. Qingyang Gate seems to have some conspiracy there.
Well... this message is for those who know tea. I hope fellow Taoists can come over for tea when they have time... That's it for now. Fellow Taoists can make a decision after reading the information."
After listening, Lu Zhong said nothing.
Judging from the information revealed by shopkeeper Tong, the general's tomb is most likely a dangerous place.
In particular, it also involves Qingyang Gate.
No matter what they are planning, it's not going to be a good thing.
"Thanks for the reminder, I will consider it carefully!"
…
Not long after returning to the courtyard, shopkeeper Tong sent someone to deliver a piece of information.
After paying for the five spiritual stones, Lu Zhong sat in the living room and looked at it carefully.
First of all, the origin of the general's tomb is actually left by the human race when they first colonized the southern barbarians. According to records, there was a war between humans and monsters at that time, so a large number of corpses were left unclaimed.
So a large cemetery was opened to bury the dead.
The so-called general's tomb is actually just a rumor.
In fact, it is more appropriate to say it is a burial ground.
Since many of the buried corpses were monks' corpses, the cemetery was divided into several areas.
They are the main tomb area with the highest standards, a gorgeous underground palace specially built to bury the corpses of monks; and the auxiliary tomb area with side halls opened on both sides of the underground palace corridor to bury mortal generals and soldiers; and the auxiliary tomb area for burying those who died
Mass graves were dug separately for the civilian laborers and other victims.
After reading it, Lu Zhong had a general understanding of the general's tomb.
Obviously, the most dangerous area is of course the main tomb area.
Secondly, there is the auxiliary tomb area.
As for mass graves, the risk level should be the lowest.
The information also mentioned the strength required to explore different areas.
There have been second-level zombies in the main tomb area, and there may also be zombie ghosts and other difficult things. Therefore, you need strength in the foundation building stage, or a team of monks in the late stage of Qi refining to explore.
The auxiliary tomb area is slightly safer and is mostly filled with rotting corpses. However, exploring alone requires cultivation in the late stage of Qi refining, or forming a team in the middle stage of Qi refining to ensure that you can escape smoothly when encountering danger.
Mass graves, on the other hand, are relatively safe.
The information makes it very clear that 99% of them are skeleton monsters. As long as they have a certain amount of fighting ability, they will basically be fine.
"I don't know how reliable this information is..." Lu Zhong decided to communicate with Li Dong again tomorrow. If the other party is willing to only explore mass graves, then there is no harm in agreeing.
At most, I just need to prepare more exorcism charms.
But if you go to the auxiliary tomb area, or even the main tomb area...
