068 Back To Use Tools Because Of People, Not Magical Powers
As Feng Junzi spoke, the stone marrow in the air had almost been refined, and it had become a completely transparent and liquefied state, like a large drop of water suspended there. Feng Junzi let go of my left hand, and grabbed my right hand with his own left hand, stretched out his right hand toward the air, and asked me: "Shi Ye, do you know what Nanming Lihuo is?"
"I don't know, I haven't heard of it. Wait, it seems that it was said in "The Legend of Swordsman of Shushan", isn't that a literati's fiction?"
Feng Junzi smiled: "This is indeed a fiction of modern literati, but can't we, a practitioner of truth, turn the virtual into reality? Actually, I didn't know what the Nanming Lihuo was before, but after learning Samadhi True Fire, I created a refining spell and simply named it Nanming Lihuo. Do you know the meaning of the four words Nanming Lihuo?"
"I don't know, I don't know the owner of Huanzhu Lou. Do you want to tell me what you created yourself?"
Feng Junzi: "In the Book of Changes, Fuxi wrote the innate Eight Trigrams, Gan is in the south and Kun is in the north, King Wen wrote the acquired Eight Trigrams, Li is in the south and Kan is in the north. The Southern Ming Lihuo refers to the creation of all things in the world. In the Samadhi True Fire, the mind comes from the true nature of the innate manifestation, while the Southern Ming Lihuo stimulates the cleverness of all things and the different attributes of materials, so that the objects have their own unique and wonderful uses."
Feng Junzi pointed at the stone marrow and said this. When he spoke, the stone marrow was also changing. The color of the stone marrow was fading, from deep green to beautiful green, and from beautiful green to light green. While the color became light, the body was also shrinking, as if the ball of liquid droplets were constantly evaporating and shrinking, from the size of an egg to the size of a walnut. I was looking at it, Feng Junzi asked me again: "Did you learn it in Nanming Lihuo?"
This time it was strange. I had almost no sense. Unlike the way he used Samadhi True Fire just now, I could know what he was doing at the same time. I shook my head: "No."
Feng Junzi: "It's normal that you can't understand it. Because at this time, it's not your mind that is refining fossil marrow. Let me tell you, the second step in refining this weapon is to process it after the material is pure and can be formed, but this is not a random process. Refining the weapon not only needs to refine the material with pure thoughts, but also use your spiritual consciousness to experience this thing, experience its natural properties, and the changes after it is formed. You have to communicate with the weapon with the spirit. Only in this way can it become a magic weapon that is in harmony with the body and mind, and you can use it freely and make it a part of you. Although refining the weapon requires special materials, the magic weapon that everyone refines with the same material has different uses. Have you felt it now? Let it become a part of your body. Although it is suspended outside your body, you can control this thing as if you control your hands and feet."
I really experienced this when Feng Junzi said this. But it is difficult to say this. Let me describe it like this - if you imagine that you have three hands, of course it is not the meaning of a thief, but that you still have one hand that is not connected to your body. But it does belong to you, it has feelings and is controlled by you. In fact, this is already the mental method of the control weapon, and it is obviously different from the control objects I learned before. In the control object realm, I am me, stone or stone, but in the control object realm, I and the control instrument are one. Not everything can be used as a control object, it must be refined through human spiritual consciousness.
Seeing that I had some insights, Feng Junzi said, "In fact, this principle of unity of mind and matter cannot be understood by practitioners. It is also OK for ordinary people. Have you seen it?"
"Ordinary people? Let me think about it... There is a person named Shi Gan in our village who especially likes to plant flowers. He planted a pot of osmanthus flowers and wished he could sleep with him every day. According to him, he felt that flowers bloom and fall, and the villagers laughed at him as a flower slutty..."
Feng Junzi smiled again: "It's not bad, that's what I mean - Oh, it's not good! I've practiced!"
Feng Junzi didn't pay much attention to the stone marrow in the air when he talked to me. When he looked at the droplets of the stone marrow had become very small, and the green had almost receded, becoming a kind of blue-white. When he looked at Feng Junzi, he looked very regretful. He stretched out his hand and stretched out his ring finger like a raised orchid finger. The small drop of stone marrow slowly fell from the air, and the fingertips passed through, and the stone marrow stayed at the base of his ring finger. At this time, Feng Junzi let go of my hand, and the stone marrow stopped rolling, and circled thinly around his ring finger, forming the shape of a ring.
Feng Junzi took the stone marrow off his hand and put it in the palm of his hand. It was a ring. He looked at the ring, and his expression on his face was very bitter, as if he was about to cry. I asked him: "Feng Junzi, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with the stone marrow? Have you refined it into a ring?"
Feng Junzi: "It's a pity that this stone marrow is extremely precious. There is no place to find it. I finally got a piece, but I made it useless. It's all my fault for accidentally just now, just talking to you..."
"What's wrong? Isn't this very good? I see that this ring is similar to what is sold in the mall."
Feng Junzi: "We are refining magic weapons, not processing jewelry. If we really want to process jewelry, such a large piece of jadeite is worth a lot of money! But now, you can take it yourself and look at it at the light."
I took this ring and looked at the light between the vines outside the bridge. It was a blue-white translucent ring. Looking closely, the blue-white texture was covered with countless small patterns like spider webs, which was indeed much worse than the original exquisite jade. I didn't look at any tricks, and returned it to Feng Junzi and asked, "How come it is useless? Can it still be used now?"
Feng Junzi held this ring and played with it in his hand. He tried it with ten fingers on both hands. After almost the same play, he said to me: "How can such a good material, the magical powers of you and me be useless? But this thing is useless to you and me."
"How to say it? What's the use?"
Feng Junzi: "I use pure innate thoughts to refine it, so that the external demons can be invincible. Then, according to the properties of the stone marrow itself, process it to make it have its own wonderful uses. Don't forget that this is a diopyleite marrow, the essence of jadeite, which can lock the spiritual energy in mountains, rivers and mineral veins... This ring has two sides, inside and outside, this ring can block all the yin objects in the world, and the evil evil cannot invade; this ring inside can lock the essence of the wearer's body, so that there is no leakage of spiritual energy and soul. This is the use of this ring, but it is useless to you and me."
"It's amazing, why is it useless to you and me?"
Feng Junzi: "I haven't told you before. In fact, your alchemy cultivation level is not low at present, and it's only one step away from the great success of the golden elixir. Besides, your Yin God has been proficient in cultivation, and the excellent body of the Golden Dragon Lock Jade Pillar, so there is no need to use this ring. Have you forgotten that at the mountain temple that night, there were thousands of lonely ghosts and ghosts. You were all blocked by sitting alone at the entrance of the temple. You are much more useful than this ring. As for me, this thing is even more optional."
"Then who can use it? Don't waste good things." Feng Junzi said it was useless for me to hold it, and it was useless for him to hold it himself. I couldn't help but have other ideas. There are many people around me, what about them? Or what about them?
"Who can use it?" Feng Junzi suddenly smiled at the ring. The smile came suddenly. He was frowning just now, and suddenly he smiled again. He smiled and said, "So that's it! He really was unintentional! I'm so fucking genius!"
"So what's wrong? Why are you unintentionally planting willows?"
Feng Junzi: "Liu is Liu from the Liu family. Whether it is Teacher Liu Feier or your sister Liu Yiyi, they all need this ring. Have you paid attention to Teacher Liu? She has been very haggard recently, and this ring has a wonderful use on the hands of ordinary people, which is to calm the mind and not contaminate wind evil, and will not even have nightmares when sleeping. There is also Liu Yiyi. Although it turns out, once you enter the human world, the Yin spirit will consume its body and it will be difficult to condense. But if you have this ring, it will be fine. Although she cannot have a real human body, all behaviors should feel the same as the body of an ordinary person!"
I was so happy when I listened on the side. This is really a cycle of heaven. This stone marrow was originally stolen from the Liu family by Feng Junzi. Whether it was for Teacher Liu or Liu Yiyi, it was all considered as the original owner. I asked, "Feng Junzi, who are you going to give to? Teacher Liu or Yiyi?"
Feng Junzi looked at me: "Don't ask me this question, I'm going to give it to you! As for whether you gave it to your sweetheart, Teacher Liu, or the cute sister Liu Yiyi, that's your business. I won't cause trouble, and I don't have to think about it... But you have to pay attention, what is a ring? It's a ring. What does it mean for a man to give a ring to a woman? Hehe, you can do it yourself!"
He waved his hand and threw the ring over, and I quickly took it. He was very happy, but after hearing Feng Junzi's words, there was another problem in his heart. Who should I give it to? Logically speaking, I should give it to Liu Yiyi, because this thing is obviously more useful to her, but Feng Junzi said another word about the meaning of a ring, which is really difficult. After thinking about it, I should give it to Yiyi. There is nothing else, Yiyi needs it more, and I will definitely wear it to her. As for Teacher Liu, I don't have an excuse to give her such an inexplicable thing, and I may not wear it if I give it to her. Maybe it is not necessary to wear it.
Seeing that I put away my ring, Feng Junzi asked again: "There are names for magical instruments, what should this ring be called?"
"How about the Spirit Locking Ring?"
Feng Junzi nodded: "Okay, it's called the Spirit Locking Ring. I have taught you the general process of refining weapons. In fact, the methods of refining weapons in each sect are different. You can explore it slowly in the future. I am not too proficient in this, and I am not afraid of you making jokes. Today is the first time I have refined weapons in my life, but I didn't expect to get a bad product... The purpose of my training is to let you learn how to use magic weapons in this process. Have you known the mental method of controlling weapons?"
To be honest, Feng Junzi demonstrated the process of "refining weapons" in front of me, which is just a careless one. I dare not say that I have learned the method of refining weapons from now on, but I did understand the mental method of "refining weapons". Hearing this, I nodded and said, "Yes, I realized the realm of controlling weapons when you refine the spirit-locking ring."
Feng Junzi: "Very good, give me the Qingming Mirror now."
I took out the Qingming Mirror from my arms, and Feng Junzi took it over and played with it in my hand. I kept looking at his hand, thinking that he would use his magical powers again? However, he never reached out to grab me this time, but looked at the Qingming Mirror and said, "The Qingming Mirror is one of the three treasures of Zhengyi, and can be regarded as a magical artifact of heaven and earth. It is said to be infinitely useful. Unfortunately, this thing was not made by me, nor was it passed on to us by someone. It was picked up by you, and I don't know what it has."
“Didn’t you use it?”
Feng Junzi: "That was sensed by myself using the mental method of the weapon, and you can do it too. Unfortunately, this weapon is broken and no longer in its true form. Many magics may not be able to be used, otherwise I can figure it out if I give me time."
I suddenly thought of a question and interrupted him and asked, "Feng Junzi, wait, you said this is the incomplete Qingming Mirror, but Ze Nakaze Ren from Zhengyi said it was not. Why can't they recognize him? Would you make a mistake?"
Feng Junzi: "I can't make a mistake, this is Qingming Mirror! It's normal for them to not recognize it, because they dare not think that Zhengyi Sanbao would be like this, and it is completely different from the artifact records of Zhengyi Sect. If the head of Zhengyi Sect, Shouzheng Zhenren, would probably recognize this Qingming Mirror, but if it were He Chen and Xi, they wouldn't recognize it. Isn't this better for you?"
Feng Junzi said it right, and it would be better if it was done. Now the world of cultivation knows what happened to Qi Yunguan, and knows that my Shi Xiaozhenren's magic weapon is a worn-out ancient mirror. As long as no one says that this is the Qingming Mirror, I can take it out and carry it on my body so that I can not see it. Thinking of this, I asked Feng Junzi again: "Can it be repaired?"
Feng Junzi: "Repair can also be repaired, but it's best not to do this. Don't think that it took me a moment to get this ring just now. If it was seen by outsiders, it would be a mess and was ruining things. Do you think it's so easy to refine a magic weapon? The senior who refines Ziyingyi took thirty years! Treasures like Qingming Mirror are not ordinary kung fu, and it's even more difficult to repair. You should just use it!"
"So what's the use of it now? I've seen you do a lot with it."
Feng Junzi: "There are at least three wonderful uses of this Qingming Mirror. The first use is to collect and refine all the yin things in the world. After all, this is the Taoist thing, and it is very convenient to catch a ghost. The first time I used it was to bring Liu Yiyi's Yin Shen into the mirror."
"Catch ghosts! Why are you catching ghosts? The ghosts didn't offend me!"
Feng Junzi: "What's the hurry? I haven't finished talking yet. Who wants you to catch ghosts? If you have a profound magic power, you can use the Qingming Mirror to collect three souls and seven spirits. Even if you can't, you can hurt people's souls. This is amazing! However, when you use it, you should pay attention. If you encounter a person with a high level of cultivation, no matter whether it is a human or a ghost, it may not work. Another thing you should pay attention to is that this magic will harm the harmony of the sky. You must never use the Qingming Mirror for no reason. As for the three precepts of practitioners in the world, I don't need to say more."
"I understand. I'm not a person who makes trouble. What's the second use?"
Feng Junzi: "The Qingming Mirror is a mirror, which has the wonderful uses of absorption and reflection. It can absorb and hurt the gods themselves. Therefore, when you encounter all the magic spells that hurt the gods in the world, you can block or even reflect it with the Qingming Mirror. This is the reason why you use the Qingming Mirror to reflect the red light of the Lingbao Seal in the Zezhong in Qiyun Temple. It is also considered that the boy was unlucky. His cultivation was under you, so you injured him. Therefore, the use of the Qingming Mirror is mainly for self-defense."
"I understand, I won't have to teach me, but what about the third one?"
Feng Junzi: "The third use is the most wonderful. It can be used to create various real scenes and illusions. Do you still remember your lustful heavenly tribulation? The Qingming Mirror became the * in "Dream of Red Mansions" in my hand, which was an illusion. If you talk about the real scene, you have learned the magic of the round light mirror. Shang Yunfei once used a piece of white paper to cast the round light mirror in front of you. You can treat the Qingming Mirror as that piece of white paper. The magic of the round light mirror will be much easier. But this wonderful use is relatively reluctant for you, and you cannot use it casually now."
"Why?"
Feng Junzi: "If you want to see the real scene in the Qingming Mirror, it's fine. What you fear most is to create an illusion. Think about it, if someone creates an illusion like the lustful heavenly tribulation and leads others into messing around, then what's going on! Also, casting this illusion magic is not casual, it requires the mind to cultivate to a certain level, and it also needs to be based on the fate of each person. Don't worry now. There is a level of delusion-breaking skill in the Three Dreams in the world, similar to the Qingming Illusion. When your golden elixir is perfect, I will teach you that you can cast this magic in the future... Be careful, you cannot cast this magic on yourself, and you must remember it."
Feng Junzi's words make sense. Although no one in the world will be so stupid that he can use magic on himself, the illusion of Qingming Mirror is not necessarily true. For example, if a person likes a woman and cannot get it in reality, it is very likely that he will use an illusion on himself and be in love with this woman in the illusion. In this way, the consequences may be quite serious.
Feng Junzi finished talking about the wonderful uses of the Qingming Mirror, but did not demonstrate it to me, but asked me to study it myself in the future. He also told me that the three wonderful uses of the Qingming Mirror are one, for example, I can accept the Yin God from someone and give him an illusion at the same time. If he cannot break the illusion, he will be trapped in the Qingming Mirror. I was both happy and a little disappointed when I took the Qingming Mirror back. What I was happy was that I could finally use the Qingming Mirror today, but the Qingming Mirror seemed to be unable to use the active attack spell. However, the magic weapons in the world are used for practice and self-defense, and the purpose is not entirely to fight with others. The Qingming Mirror is already a treasure.
After talking about the use of Qingming Mirror, it was almost time to class in the afternoon. We were busy for a long time and didn’t even eat lunch. We got up and prepared to go back. Feng Junzi remembered something again, so he took out a very beautiful thing from his pocket and handed it to me: "Shiye, take this."
Feng Junzi's pocket looks like a treasure bag, and he can always take out strange things. This time he gave me a flat gourd-shaped glass bottle, which was painted with beauties in palace clothes on one side and finely brushed flowers and birds on the other side. The painting was very exquisite, not painted on the outer wall, but actually outlined in the bottle. This thing is very small, only the size of a palm.
"What is this?"
Feng Junzi: "This is a snuff bottle from the Qianlong period, and it is also an antique. However, the snuff inside is newly produced this year and is authentic German goods."
"Where did you come from? What did you do for me? I don't even smoke cigarettes, let alone snuff!"
Feng Junzi: "Don't worry about where it comes from. This is not for you, but for you to find a way to give it to someone... It's either someone else, or Yang Xiaokang, a classmate in our class."
"Give it to Yang Xiaokang? Why don't you give it to him yourself?"
Feng Junzi: "I'm helping you, don't ask, just do as I say. Don't tell Yang Xiaokang that it was on purpose, just say that this thing was left by the elderly in your village. He likes these things the most. Making friends with him will not harm you!"
...
Yang Xiaokang is a classmate in our class. He is more than one year younger than me. He has never shown any sign of his appearance in the class and does not deal with others much, but he is quite special. What makes him special is not that this person has something special, but the teacher’s attitude towards him. In middle school, every student will be criticized more or less, but no teacher has ever said anything about him. Even the teacher who is late and leaving early occasionally turns a blind eye. Only He Jun and Yang Xiaokang in our class can enjoy this treatment. He Jun is the son of Principal He. This is not surprising, but I don’t know what Yang Xiaokang is from?
But whether it is dressed or spoken or demeanor, Yang Xiaokang feels much better than He Jun. Maybe this is called temperament? He has a kind of confidence and maturity beyond his peers. Feng Junzi asked me to find a way to give the snuff bottle to Yang Xiaokang, but I was a little confused. Although this thing is not particularly precious, it can also be worth a lot of money. Why do you want me to give it to him? He is not a girl.
Giving the snuff bottle to Yang Xiaokang was much easier than I thought. The next afternoon after school, the students lined up to go to the toilet first, then went home from school or went to the cafeteria to get food. After coming out of the men's toilet, they happened to be with Yang Xiaokang. I was so mean, took out the snuff bottle, opened the lid, and smelled it in front of my nose, which happened to be in his sight. Yang Xiaokang's eyes immediately lit up.
"Ishino, Ishino, wait for me, what are you holding?" Without me to greet him, he took the initiative to push the bicycle and walked a few steps to catch up with me.
I pretended to stop unexpectedly and shine the snuff bottle on my palm: "This is a snuff bottle, do you know it too?"
Yang Xiaokang: "Show me if it's good... Of course I know things from the Qing Dynasty, from the Qianlong and Jiajia era, the inner paintings are very good... and snuff? Where did it come from?"
"This is given to me by an old Chinese doctor in our village, and left by his ancestors. He gave it to me to play with, and he pretended to snuff. The old man told me that sucking a little when you sneeze can open your orifices."
Yang Xiaokang asked enviously: "Why did he give it to you?"
"I often help him go up the mountain to collect herbs during holidays."
Yang Xiaokang: "Can you give me a try?"
"Just try it, what are you polite?"
Yang Xiaokang poured a little brown powder from the snuff bottle and put it on his palm, then dipped it with his fingers and applied it to his upper lip, took a deep breath, then opened his mouth and sneezed, with a very comfortable expression. I have seen this action on TV, but I didn’t know what it meant, but now I realize that it was snuff. After Yang Xiaokang tried it, he couldn’t let go of it, and he was a little embarrassed to ask me: “Ishino, how much do you think this snuff bottle is worth?”
He liked it very much and wanted to buy it with me, but it was hard to say it directly, so I asked me to tell you the price first. I simply said it clearly: "Do you like it? If you like it, give it to you. I won't snuff anyway."
Yang Xiaokang: "How can I be so embarrassed? This thing is going to be sold for one or two thousand on the market. Let's do this. When I save enough 2,000 yuan, will I give you the money?"
He wants to give me money? It's only 2,000 yuan. This is undoubtedly an astronomical figure for middle school students at that time. Anyway, it's Feng Junzi's thing, so he can do it to the end: "It's all classmates. For this little bottle, you can talk about money. If you like it, I won't give it to you."
Yang Xiaokang: "Okay, you are loyal enough, I want it. If you don't want to take yours for nothing, tell me what you like, and I'll help you with it. As long as there are ones in Wucheng, you will definitely get it."
I shook my hand: "Then I don't need it, I don't need anything."
Yang Xiaokang felt even more embarrassed: "Okay, I've made you a friend. I'll treat you to dinner on the National Day holiday tomorrow and go to the best hotel in Wucheng... I know where you are, is that noodle restaurant? I'll go find you tomorrow morning."
Before I could refuse, Yang Xiaokang walked away with a snuff bottle and walked away on a mountain bike. He seemed to be afraid that I would regret it. I looked at his back and felt very confused. I didn’t understand why Feng Junzi asked me to do this? Is it true that Yang Xiaokang is also a hidden master in our class? Why didn’t I see it at all? Yang Xiaokang looks very decent in his clothes and looks, and he uses all the high-end products. He should be a rich child, but his behavior is relatively steady and not frivolous. Who is he? Alas, I don’t care about my classmates too much!
...
The National Day holiday has arrived, and there was no Golden Week at that time. It happened to be the weekend. Our school had four days off, and the third year and the third year of high school were on vacation for one and a half days. During the holiday, I usually stayed at Sister Ziying’s noodle restaurant to help. That morning I went to the market to buy flour early. I could only go there alone, but Ah Xiu had to follow her. She seemed to be curious about everything in the market. Not long after she bought the flour, Yang Xiaokang came to me.
He put the mountain bike at the door of the store and shouted, "Shiye, you are there, let's go and invite you to dinner at noon today and go to Tianxiang Restaurant."
Tianxiang Restaurant? Isn’t this the place where Zhang Zhi invited us to dinner last time? The best hotel in Wucheng, Yang Xiaokang actually invited me there too. After Yang Xiaokang said hello to me, he saw Ah Xiu again and said, “Shi Zhixiu, are you here too? It’s just right, let’s go together.”
Unexpectedly, A Xiu curled her mouth: "What's the best place in Tianxiang Restaurant? The dishes cooked there are not as good as Sister Ziying. If you want to have a meal, just eat here."
People who don’t know will think that Ah Xiu is talking nonsense or is taking on business for the noodle restaurant, but I know she is telling the truth. Last time she ate a table of dishes at Tianxiang Restaurant, and I can’t say that the dishes are bad, but I don’t remember the other dishes except the Jiejinwouyu Pill. In comparison, the food made by Sister Ziying is more delicious.
Sister Ziying also heard the voices outside and walked out to say hello: "Ono, Axiu, is your classmate here? Hurry up. Axiu, this girl, always speaks to her own restaurant. My skills are not as good as the chef in the restaurant, but I can still make some dishes... Ishino, if you want to entertain classmates, just be here. I will make some special dishes for you at noon..."
Yang Xiaokang was about to speak when five or six young men in their twenties suddenly walked in from the noodle shop. These people dressed strangely and were also scattered. After entering the noodle shop, they didn't say hello, and knocked on the table of the noodle shop with their short sticks in their hands, and shouted to the guests who were eating: "Let's go, leave quickly, don't check the bill anymore. We have settled the account. Today, someone here will book a room, and the walk is slow and blood is splashed all over. Don't blame us for not saying hello."
At first glance, I knew that these street gangsters came to cause trouble. The guests in the noodle restaurant obviously didn't want to cause trouble, so they put down their chopsticks and left. A few of them were pretty good and put the money on the table when they left. When A Xiu saw the group of people coming in to make trouble, they drove all the guests away, and they brows raised and wanted to go up to argue. Sister Ziying pulled her and made a gesture to tell her not to speak. I saw clearly that these people were the ones who teased A Xiu at the door of the noodle restaurant last time, and this time they brought the guys to settle the accounts.
To be honest, I am not afraid at all, I just feel very disgusted! Why are there endless people like this? I don’t know about the four people in the noodle restaurant, except Yang Xiaokang, who would be afraid of me, Axiu, and Ziying? What’s the difference between provoking this place and seeking death? However, what’s annoying is that we can’t take them in this downtown city, and we can’t take out the Qingming Mirror and collect three souls and seven souls, right?
Sister Ziying grabbed Ah Xiu and was about to go forward to speak. At this time, Yang Xiaokang had turned around and said calmly in front of the group of people: "Why are you guys here? Go out quickly!"
Chapter completed!
