"Yes!" I answered, and took out a stack of talismans from my magic cloth bag. Some of them were given to me by Master last time, and now I can finally put them to use.
I took out a piece of talisman paper and stuck it on the elevator wall on the second floor. As soon as my hand touched the elevator wall, a burst of green smoke immediately rose up and made a "chichichichi" sound. The talisman paper looked like
It seems like it might burst into flames at any time.
"Very good! Let's do it like this. We put a five-thunder evil charm on each floor. After cleaning the evil spirit in the elevator, we go down to the elevator shaft. Xiaoru, press the elevator button." Master.
Chaolian Xiaoru warned.
After Lian Xiaoru pressed the elevator button, the elevator quickly headed towards the third floor. Next, I posted a five-thunder evil-suppressing talisman on the third floor. Following the method my master taught me, I climbed all the way up.
When we posted the talisman on the eighth floor, I suddenly heard Master shouting to me: "Eight Stop!"
"What's wrong?" I asked Master with some confusion.
"Seven up and eight down. After going up to the eighth floor, the evil spirits here are basically very weak. All the evil spirits will only go downwards. Now you don't use the talisman drawn by the master, just use the talisman drawn by yourself. I think you
Can you suppress these evil spirits?" Master warned me.
"Okay! Let me try to draw a talisman." After that, I took out a blank talisman paper from my French cloth bag, and then took out my cinnabar pen and drew it on top of the blank talisman paper.
I drew the talisman.
When Master saw the talisman I drew, he couldn't help but shook his head, "Oh! Master thinks highly of your talent, but ignores your laziness. The talisman you have drawn now has even one-third of Master's spiritual power."
Not even half of it can be achieved. It seems that your boy must not have worked hard during this period of time."
"Master, the conscience of heaven and earth! You can't say that to me. Disciple, in the past few months, I have killed more ghosts than I can count on my ten fingers." I replied to the master.
The master shook his head, sighed and said: "From the perspective of normal people, you are far beyond the level of ordinary Taoist priests. But don't forget that you are a disciple of Xia Maoshan, and the master personally taught the Dharma.
A disciple of Xia Maoshan. In addition, your talent is not bad to begin with. If you had been more diligent, you would be far from what you are now. I think that starting from tomorrow, you will just draw talismans at home and don't go anywhere. You will intensively train for a month.
Draw two hundred pictures every day."
"Master, no way! I can draw some basic talisman now! And I have already read the two books you gave me. There is no need to practice drawing talismans any more!" I said to the master.
.
The master rolled his eyes at me angrily, "What do you know, kid? As the saying goes, drawing a talisman a thousand times will make you successful. A person's skill in drawing a talisman must be drawn at least a thousand times before he can see it. If you want to see the talisman in your hand,
To have a superb effect, you need to draw it at least ten thousand times. Remember, when I say ten thousand times, I mean the drawing method of a single talisman. Not all talismans can be drawn ten thousand times. From Master's point of view, you kid
The talisman I have drawn now is probably less than two hundred times."
"This..." Master said this, and I really had nothing to say. I did draw a lot of talismans during this period of time. In fact, I'm afraid there is no single way to draw each talisman.
There are more than one hundred and fifty, especially the Five Thunder Suppressing Evil Talisman, which is probably less than fifty.
"What? Are you still not convinced?" Master glanced at me and said, "If you are not convinced, you can see the effect by sticking the talisman paper in your hand on the inner wall of the elevator."
"Okay! I'll give it a try and see how strong my talisman is." After that, I clicked the Five Thunder Suppression Talisman I had just drawn in my hand and pasted it on the inner wall of the elevator.
"Strange, why is there no response?" I couldn't help but ask. Because when I pasted Master's talisman just now, the talisman looked like it was burning, and even smoke was coming out.
"How's it going? Do you feel like your talisman power is getting worse?" Master asked me. I didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.
Suddenly, I saw the master taking out a piece of talisman paper from his pocket, and then facing the inner wall of the elevator, he pasted the talisman paper in his hand on the inner wall of the elevator, and soon a strange scene happened.
, I saw bursts of green smoke rising from the inner wall of the elevator, and from time to time, there were bursts of "chichichi" sounds.
"See, this is the effect. The difference between us can be seen at a glance." Master said to me.
"Master, why don't the talismans I posted produce smoke? But your talismans emitted smoke as soon as I pasted them." I asked.
"This is the difference in basic skills. Generally, in a place like this where the Yin energy is extremely strong, there will be a reaction when the talismans are posted. Some talisman papers will have blood marks, and some will appear smoking. If there is no reaction, there are two reasons.
There are two possibilities. One is that the Yin energy here has dissipated. Another possibility is that the power of my talisman is not enough to suppress the Yin spirit here."
Master explained to me.
I had no choice but to take out the stack of talisman papers that Master gave me again and stick them on the elevator one by one. When I reached the sixteenth floor, Master called me to stop again.
"Try it again!" Master glanced at me and said.
"Okay!" I had no choice but to take out another blank piece of talisman paper, and then used a cinnabar pen to draw a Five Thunder Suppressing Evil Talisman on the talisman paper.
After gathering my energy and concentration, I pasted the talisman paper I had just drawn on the inner wall of the elevator.
There was a "pop!" and soon I saw a burst of green smoke rising from the edge of the talisman paper. When I saw this phenomenon, I couldn't help but feel excited, and I couldn't help shouting to Master.
: "Did you see that I can finally show off my spiritual power now?"
"Yeah! It's okay. I guess your current spiritual power is only a quarter of my master's, because this evil energy comes from the ground. The higher it goes up, the weaker it gets. And your spiritual power is only on the sixteenth floor.
The way he looks, and he’s a little reluctant, shows that he’s still very weak!” Master replied to me.
After listening to Master's words, I felt my face was burning. I felt that my efforts during this period were in vain.
At this time, Lian Xiaoru smiled at me.
"Qiao Yang, don't be too sad. In fact, it doesn't matter. The spiritual power of the talisman doesn't mean everything. Like me, I don't know much about talismans at all, but I can still cultivate the Tao. Besides, you are already a pretty good practitioner.
Of course you are much worse than your master. You should compare with your peers."
Lian Xiaoru smiled and comforted me.
"It seems that I can only compete with that boy Fang Tao." I smiled, and while I was talking, I drew a five-thunder evil charm and posted it on the seventeenth floor.
Next, I posted it on the 18th floor.
"Change to another elevator and let's continue." Master warned me.
This time, we started from the 18th floor. I drew the talisman myself along the way. The strange thing is that this time the talisman I drew myself was posted from the 18th floor to the 7th floor in one go. Every talisman
Paper can consciously emit smoke.
When the master saw it, he finally smiled, put his hand on my shoulder, and praised: "Okay! Boy, you have made such rapid progress. You have risen several levels in such a short time. However, this kind of progress
It’s not yet stable. Only when it stabilizes at this level can it be considered a real improvement.”
I smiled and continued to post it. However, when I reached the sixth floor, there was no sign of smoke no matter how I posted it.
The master smiled and persuaded me, "Forget it, let me draw a few talismans myself!" After saying that, the master picked up the cinnabar pen and drew the talismans himself.
This time he drew the talisman very fast. I felt that it was many times faster than before he went to Xiangxi. In the past, it always took a long time for the master to draw a talisman, but now with only a few strokes, the entire talisman shape is completed.
It was sketched out, and it was completed in one go, with great momentum.
No wonder I feel that the gap between Master and me is getting farther and farther. It turns out that it is not that my progress is small, but that he has also made great progress. In this way, my progress is not obvious.
"Master, have you recently intensively trained your drawing skills, so you can draw talismans faster?" I asked the master with some confusion.
"Well! This is all you can see. Yes, Master did suffer a lot when he went to Xiangxiang this time. I was trapped in the Cave of Injustice for half a month. During this half month, Master had to go to Xiangxiang every day.
I just used to draw talismans to pass the boring time. And it was in a dark world, where I couldn't see my fingers. That's where I learned my skills in drawing talismans. Maybe it has a lot to do with the resentment in that place."
Master replied to me.
After listening to Master's words, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart. It seems that I really need to strengthen my training and practice the skills of drawing talismans. Once the spiritual power of drawing talismans increases, my ability to exorcise ghosts will naturally improve.
It's stronger.
"Okay, after pasting the last talisman, we can get out of the elevator." Master shouted to me, slapped a talisman in his hand on the inner wall of the elevator, then turned around and looked at the elevator with a serious face.
's door.
He whispered to me and Lian Xiaoru: "Everyone, get ready. We are about to get out of the elevator. When you leave, don't look back. At the same time, you must pick up the peach wood sword in your hand to prevent the Yin Qi outside from coming again."
Come in."
"Yes!" Lian Xiaoru and I answered at the same time, then picked up the peach wood swords in our hands and pointed forward.
"Ding!" The elevator door opened. Master took the lead and jumped out of the elevator. Lian Xiaoru and I also jumped out.
The strange thing is that the moment I jumped out of the elevator, I suddenly saw a black shadow jumping down from the top of the elevator door, and then I felt something hanging around my neck.
"Qiao Yang, what's wrong with you?" Lian Xiaoru asked with concern when she saw that I was holding my breath. As she spoke, she immediately picked up the peach wood sword in her hand and pointed it at my back, slapping me with the sword.
Come down.
The sound of the sword fell, and a scream of "Ah" was immediately heard. He lowered his head and looked at the ground, and saw a dead woman immediately fell to the ground. Lian Xiaoru picked up the peach wood sword in his hand and pointed it at the female ghost's head.
The throat was pierced. There was another scream, and the female ghost's face widened in horror. After a while, it turned into a puff of smoke and completely dissipated in front of us.
"Done!" Lian Xiaoru clapped her hands and smiled at me.
The master just glanced at it indifferently, and then his eyes fell on Secretary Wu's face, and told him: "Get ready to open the elevator, now you can take a look at the situation down the shaft."
"Yes!" Secretary Wu responded and immediately ordered the two electricians, "Open the elevator shaft and go down and take a look!"
"OK."
"Um!"
The two electricians nodded and prepared to use the keys to turn off the elevator.
"Wait!" The master took a step forward, took out two Liuding Liujia talismans from his French cloth bag, handed them to the two electricians, and warned seriously: "Put them on, these can protect your body.
