Chapter 29 The first spell
To draw talismans, the necessary one must be a brush, ink, paper, spirit, that is, brush, cinnabar, talisman paper, gods, and the last one is the most critical. There must be a god into the body of the talisman, so that the power of the talisman will increase greatly. However, the ritual of drawing talismans will definitely not be so simple. There are 108 talismans, and the master ordered me to count the talisman papers neatly before the sun sets, then grind the cinnabar, and prepare the brush. Of course, the altar is used to use the incense burner of Tian Xiaosan's family to invite the gods.
Bu Yique felt comfortable. As an excuse for a foot injury, he slept easily for most of the day. When I was depressed and prepared everything, the red clouds in the sky gradually fell into the west mountain.
I guess the hour of You was about to pass, and when the hour of Xu was approaching, the master slowly walked out of the room. At this moment, Tian Xiaosan was also busy with dinner. No one said anything during the dinner because I didn't know what talisman to draw later. I really wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, because under normal circumstances, the master kept the traditional idea left by his ancestors, that is, not to eat or sleep or not.
After dinner, the master pushed away his bowl and waited for Tian Xiaosan to clean up the end of the table, and we gathered in the main hall again.
I was about to ask, but my master seemed to have foresightedly reached out and ordered: "There are two things to do tonight. We must finish all the two things before dawn tomorrow morning, so everyone should act separately. Miss, you must find a papermaker tonight and ask him to work one hundred and one pair of paper shoes overnight."
"Paper shoes?" Tian Xiaosan opened his mouth in surprise, then nodded and said, "There is a land temple at the eastern end of the town, next to the land temple. An old man living in the land temple, surnamed Duan, is very respected in our Tongyao Town, and has the longest generation and the oldest age. His name is Duan Huaien. Of course, our descendants call him Grandpa Duan. With this skill, Grandpa Duan is not young. It is said that he just passed his 70th birthday. I don't know if he can do so many things overnight..."
The master's face turned solemn and said, "You must be driven out before dawn, and you cannot let anyone know about this. You must also make Mr. Duan keep his mouth shut. At least in the past few days, you can't let him do one hundred and one pair of paper shoes. You can also make it yourself after watching it. But these paper shoes must be particular. They must be sticky with raw paste. The grain noodles cannot be used. They must be pure white flour. The paper shoes are also made of blue paper. Only the two pairs outside the ninety-nine pairs, the edges of the shoe are the uppers, and the cloud heads on the toe should be circling. Remember these two points, go."
Tian Xiaosan grabbed the back of his head in confusion, but the master had already explained the method and workmanship very clearly. What he didn't understand might be the purpose of this thing, and of course I don't know it now.
Looking at Tian Xiaosan walking out of the door excitedly, I immediately asked, "Master, those paper shoes..."
The master smiled mysteriously, interrupted my words, and then said coldly: "It's not to be said now. You will understand in three days. By the way, you can't sleep tonight. Tonight is the first time you have given you important tasks since you practiced Taoism with your master. I will give you a few curse of killing ghosts and cursing evil spirits. You will draw them into 108 pieces. Open the altar and decree talisman at midnight. Don't be lazy!"
I felt excited. Can I really draw talismans? Hehe! It seems that I still have some effect around my master!
I had learned the ritual of drawing talismans when I was in Ma'an Village, but I had never really learned how to draw talismans. I didn't expect that I would draw more than 100 pictures at once. I really wanted to draw 1,000 pictures in one go to make it satisfying. As for what Master said about being lazy, it was absolutely impossible.
Perhaps seeing the excitement on my face, Master stood up with a smile. I asked cautiously: "Master, then what are you doing tonight? Is it dangerous?"
The master was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and immediately said seriously: "It's not dangerous, it's just that there is something dangerous when sleeping..."
As he said that, under my stunned gaze, the master slowly walked into the room. It turned out that he was going to sleep?! I suddenly felt that it would be very tired to draw more than a hundred talismans? It seemed that on weekdays, the master was so tired that he sweated heavily after only drawing a few talismans. Then I...
I looked at Bu Yique unconsciously. Bu Yique immediately spread his hands and smiled, then pretended to be solemn and said, "Good brother! It's up to you tonight to show off your skills! My foot injury has not healed, so I can only keep leaking. I can't help you, so I have to endure the pain and go to bed."
"I..." Why do you seem to be in a dilemma? I suddenly felt a little tricked.
Just as Master was about to close the door, I finally couldn't help saying, "Master, I'm drawing talismans alone, but you all go to sleep. Isn't that fair?"
I thought my master would come up with a normal reason, and said that I could do more tempering and training. But my master smiled for the first time and said, "Who told me to be the master and you are the disciple? As the saying goes, the master moves his mouth and the disciple runs off his legs. You kid, just wait for hardship in the future. I will go to bed first for the master!"
After the master finished speaking, I closed the door, and I sat in the main hall, feeling extremely frustrated but didn't know how to vent. Hey! What's this?! I didn't expect that the master's Yin disciple had no discussion, and he was so cruel that I was speechless.
Suddenly, the supreme title buried deep in my heart finally broke through the ground and returned. I held my breath and shouted softly at the door of my master: "Big face!"
Of course, the volume of this sentence is also symbolically smaller, and I didn't even hear it clearly myself, but I thought my mouth was wide open enough. After a bombardment, I felt much calmer. Then I closed the door of the main room, found a clean piece of land, sat cross-legged, and pinched the finger of the Taoist finger with my left hand. At this moment, it is definitely not possible to draw the talisman. I must calm my mind first. Alas, it is all for this big face to be angry.
Who makes me be the master? I can only accept reality silently, and self-comfort gradually works. When my mind is concentrated, I open my eyes. At this time, about the hour of Hai and Zi, I pick up the talismans prepared by my master for me, first silently remember them, then ignite three pillars of incense and put them in the incense burner, respectfully telling the gods of heaven and earth, and all the ancestors.
Below are the edict pens and edict cinnabar. This is a must-have for drawing talismans. According to the talisman drawing ritual, if you do not practice enough, you must first entrust all objects, otherwise the power of the talismans drawn will not reach the expected effect.
He pinched out his sword with one hand and pointed at the brush. At the same time, I hurriedly recited: "The five thunder gods will light the light of the light, and the whole body will save their lives. They will tie ghosts to subdue evil and destroy all the Tao. I will die in a hurry as the law!"
After passing the brush, I took a breath, pointed at the cinnabar again, and said at the same time: "Danshi Shuo Feng Demons and Destroy Ghosts and Deadly Yanshu Ling Talismans in the Three Realms are urgent and as the law command!"
Why does the master not have such cumbersome rituals? Sometimes he can do it at will. In the final analysis, he still practices profoundly and has a high level of Taoism!
After all the tedious procedures were completed, I guess that the time of Zi is approaching. Speaking of Zi, it is the time when yin and yang alternate, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is the purest and most prosperous time, and there is another time that is noon. But in comparison, most ordinary practitioners choose to practice or draw talismans in Zi, and they will only use noon unless the situation is urgent.
Below are the drawing talismans. During the period, the requirements for starting and stopping the talisman are extremely strict. They must be completed in one go. Such a talisman is coherent up and down, so that the spiritual energy above can be round. In addition, if the left hand does not hold the pen, you must also pinch out the three finger techniques of "Ri Jun Jue", "Moon Jun Jue", and "Tiangang Jue", the so-called "Ri Jun Jue" is to change the finger tips of the four fingers on the left hand, only the second finger is stretched flat, and the fingertips are facing upwards. The Yue Jun Jue is to slightly bend inwards except for the fourth finger, with the fingertips facing upwards, and the other four fingertips are slightly bent inwards. Finally, it is Tiangang Jue: the second finger is stretched flat, the fingertips facing upwards, and the other four fingertips are slightly bent inwards.
The purpose of using these three finger techniques is to take the true qi of the sun, the moon, the moon, the yin and yang, and the qi is drawn into the talisman, use the gods to cheer, drive away evil spirits, and increase the power of the talisman. The Tiangang Art, which is finally pinched out, commands ghosts and gods. When drawing the talisman, use the Tiangang finger to obtain the qi and introduce it into the talisman, which can greatly increase the power of the talisman.
This Tiangang Art is naturally different from the Tiangang Hand Seal used by the master before, but the power of the Gang Qi is also different.
I spread out the first talisman paper, lifted the brush to moisten the cinnabar, then concentrated my whole body and mind on the tip of the pen, and connected my mind, body, and spirit into a line. I stared at the talisman paper for a short moment. I immediately wrote down the pen and wrote the first talisman in my life under a regular ritual, a spell of killing ghosts!
At the same time, I pinched the Sun Lord's Dharma with my left hand, and the moment I finished writing, I recited a spell at the same time: "The Supreme Lord taught me to kill ghosts, and with my gods, call the jade girl up, collect the ominous, climb the mountain rocks, wear seals, wear a canopy, step on the head, support Kuigang, support Liujia on the left, and Liuding on the right guard, there is a yellow god in front and Yuezhang on the back, the divine master kills and does not avoid the powerful, kill the evil ghost first, and then kill the Yasha. Why not the gods do not subdue, and why dare to stop? As the law and orders!"
As soon as the tip of the pen stopped, the spell was chanted urgently at this moment. This talisman was finished. I put away the brush and immediately pinched out the Vajra Commander Talisman, and pointed it at the talisman, and then clicked it three times. Only then did the first talisman be truly completed!
Sensing the strong aura of divine spirit revealed on the talisman, I felt excited and looked happily, looking up and down, looking left and right. After being beautiful, I finally reluctantly put the drawn talisman aside, and then continued to draw the second talisman-
Chapter completed!
