195th time, you must choose a village to travel to the countryside. You are good at liking things and don’t hurt your behavior.

(Preface: Xunzi said, "A gentleman is not born differently, but is good at using things." "A gentleman must choose a hometown when he lives, and must be a scholar when he travels, so he is preventing evil and avoiding others and being close to the right and right.")

The condensed furnace was scattered and refined. It was Mei Zhenyi's turn to ask Zhang Xiu for advice on the formation and talismans. However, he did not rush to ask for anything directly. Instead, he asked Zhang Xiu to drink and chat in various places in Jiulian Mountain, Wanjia Hotel, and Wuzhou City, and talk about the formation whenever he had time. Zhang Xiu was a distinguished guest from afar, so this was a good hospitality. Mei Zhenyi was not the only one who drank and chatted with him, Qu Zhensheng, Li Lan, Jihai Zhenren, Mei Yi, and the Mei brothers, and often sat together.

The basis of the formation starts with the Qimen Technique. This cannot be finished in one or two days. Moreover, the Qimen formation technique is also very helpful for the construction of the Xianjia Cave Heaven. Zhang Xiu taught the Qimen mysteries to all colleagues in a very relaxed and comfortable drinking trip. Mei Zhenyi had some research on this aspect before traveling through time. He thought it was just a way for people from the martial arts world to fool people. After hearing what Zhang Xiu said, he realized that it was really profound.

Mei Zhenyi often spoke and discussed with Zhang Xiu on his own initiative, asking for advice and praise from time to time, not giving a completely one-sided lecture. This kind of communication made Zhang Xiu feel very natural. Li Lan and Qu Zhensheng also had some foundation in Qimen art, and they asked more questions. When Zhang Xiu visited various parts of Qingyi Sanshan, he explained Qimen and Geometricalism in combination with the earth and terrain. Coincidentally, Mei Zhenyi was also good at geometricalism, so he had more topics, and the more he talked about it, the more he became more and more involved.

These basic mysteries are not secrets that are not passed down among practitioners, but for a real expert to tell them, there are more mysteries that outsiders do not understand. The group accompanied Zhang Xiu around like stars and moon-holding the moon. He was very interested and explained in detail. Everyone in the Qingyi Mountains had gained something, and even learned to read Feng Shui. The one who gained the most was naturally Mei Zhenyi.

Of course, this kind of communication is not just Zhang Xiu teaching Qimen alone. Li Lan introduced how to cultivate spiritual medicines, Qu Zhensheng introduced how to diagnose and treat various injuries, Mei Zhenyi even introduced how to make wine. There are various topics that Zhang Xiu is very interested in, and it seems that each has gained something.

Zhang Xiu also felt embarrassed. He owed Mei Zhenyi a great favor. He took the thirteen jade talismans and specially taught Mei Zhenyi how to use them to arrange the thunder-induced formation. At this time, Mei Zhenyi took the opportunity to ask for advice.

Although Zhang Xiu was talkative, he was also very sensible in his opening. The basic mythology of Qimen Technique can be explained in detail, but he would not teach the various formations secretly passed down from Longhu Mountain, and these formations are the basis for making various talismans. However, Mei Zhenyi already had the thunder-induced formation talisman in his hand, so Zhang Xiu was embarrassed not to teach it. He only broke this example and could explain it to his father when he went back.

At the beginning, Zhang Xiu only taught Mei Zhenyi how to use these thirteen jade talismans to set up the array. Mei Zhenyi was very clever. Combined with the strange skills he had learned, he asked Zhang Xiu for the principle of the thunder-induced array while setting up the array. Can you set up the array in other ways, etc.? Zhang Xiu thought that since he had taught all the formations, he would better teach them all, and he didn't want others to say that he was a half-baked one, so he taught Mei Zhenyi as much as possible the principle and method of setting up the array to be as detailed as possible.

As for other magic arrays, Zhang Xiu didn't teach them, but it was enough for Mei Zhenyi. The Qimen formation was almost done, and Mei Zhenyi began to ask for the talisman technique again. She didn't ask about the secret techniques, but just asked about the details and learned a lot of things she didn't know before.

There are many types of talismans made in Longhu Mountain, and their uses are different. Among them, talismans that fight with people or subdue demons and eliminate demons. The most powerful one is the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman. This thing looks easy to use, but it is actually very dangerous to use, and the magic power consumed is also very large. The disciples of Longhu Mountain use whether they can use the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman as a hurdle to measure their cultivation, just like the "primordial spirit appearance" of Donghuamen's disciples, and whether they can make the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman is another hurdle, just like the "Purple Gold Pill" of the Donghuamen's disciples.

Whether it can be used and made does not depend on the talisman itself, but on the cultivation level of the "Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Dharma". The conditions for making the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman are not only the cultivation of Taoism, but also the thunder-induced formation. Zhang Xiu will never pass the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Dharma to Mei Zhenyi, and of course he will not teach Mei Zhenyi how to make the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman.

But Mei Zhenyi already has two talismans. In order to avoid any surprises in the future, Mr. Zhang Xiu has to teach him how to use it. He used the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman to attack Yaohuang in the West Sea. If he hadn't flashed fast in advance, he would have almost slashed himself. Anyway, the thunder formation has been taught, so it would be natural to teach him how to apply the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman.

After teaching, there was a little trouble when it needed to demonstrate. Zhang Xiu did not have the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman on his body. Mei Zhenyi took the initiative to propose using the talisman in his hand to demonstrate it so that all the practitioners in Qingyi's Three Mountains could see the power of the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman in Longhu Mountain. Of course, Zhang Xiu agreed to such a shameful thing.

On the huge square platform on Fang Zhengfeng, Zhang Xiu demonstrated the power of the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder in public. Everyone was amazed and praised it. While the iron was hot, Mei Zhenyi took out another Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman and demonstrated it in public. Of course, the power is not small, but compared to Zhang Xiu's technique, the control is not exquisite enough. Zhang Xiu comforted him not to be too disappointed, it was quite difficult to be able to do this for the first time.

After the demonstration, a new problem arose. Mei Zhenyi no longer has the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman in her hands. What's the use of learning to apply it? He didn't mention this, and Zhang Xiu took the initiative to tell Mei Zhenyi that after returning to Longhu Mountain, he would send someone to send a few Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman.

Qingyi Sanshan Fengshui and scenery are first-class. The owner has the elegance of hospitality, as well as various magical medicines and fine wines. Zhang Xiu was very happy here. He lived there for half a year. It was not until almost five months later that Zhang Shiyuan, the head of Longhu Mountain, wrote a letter to urge him to go back. Then he packed up his luggage and prepared to say goodbye.

Before leaving, Zhang Xiu took the initiative to propose that he would become brothers with Mei Zhenyi, so Mei Zhenyi agreed immediately. The Zhang Tianshi lineage of Longhu Mountain is a lineage inheritance, and Zhang Xiu is Zhang Shiyuan's eldest son. As long as he did not make any big mistakes and his practice was quite outstanding, he would not have unexpectedly become the next generation of Longhu Mountain leader in the future. In terms of sincerity, Mei Zhenyi had a very good relationship with him. This person is gentle and kind, and a brother who can make friends with him.

The two of them became sworn brothers, so they naturally held a banquet to celebrate in the courtyard of Xiaozhu. During the meal, everyone was in high spirits and drank a lot of wine. Zhang Xiudi blushed and patted Mei Zhenyi's shoulder hard and said, "Brother, I have been disturbing for so long. Brother, I finally have to say goodbye. When you have time, don't forget to visit Longhu Mountain."

Mei Zhenyi held the cup and said, "It must be sure, drink and drink."

Zhang Xiu: "After I go back, I will send someone to send you a few more purple thunder talismans. You must pay attention to using this kind of talisman in the future. You must only defeat the enemy at critical moments and must not rely too much on it. The purple thunder talisman is not a fun place."

Zhang Xiu also talked about many things to note when Longhu Mountain disciples use the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman. When using it, you must be careful not to force the talisman. This happened once. An elder from Longhu Mountain fought with a demon and issued dozens of Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talismans in a row, and later he died.

This senior was not killed by a demon, but fell to death. What's going on? Using the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman also consumes mana. And it was suddenly one-time, which is different from the gradual depletion of spirit during the battle. When the senior threw out the last Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman, his spirit was exhausted and he could not display any magical powers. He fell from the sky.

Mei Zhenyi took the opportunity to ask how many purple thunder talismans can be used at a time for cultivation? Zhang Xiu couldn't say it clearly, but he told Mei Zhenyi that his father Zhang Shiyuan had a perfect cultivation level and could emit ninety-ninety-one purple thunder talismans in succession at a time. The power was really shocking the world and the ghosts and gods were sobbing!

Mei Zhenyi secretly deduced it in his heart when she heard this. If he was just like a demonstration on Fang Zhengfeng, he could also emit seventy or eighty purple thunder talismans with his own cultivation. If he was fighting with the Western Sea Monster Huang, there was a thunder cloud full of power, he could only emit at most a dozen at a time. He had to use the talismans with the help of the right time and place, and the greater the power, the more magic power was consumed.

When the wine was over, Mei Zhenyi made a clear request for the first time: "Brother. I have seen the power of the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder, but I have not yet appreciated the wonder of making talismans. Before my brother left, could I make a Purple Mansion Divine Thunder talisman on the spot to open my eyes?"

The question of this sentence is wonderful. Knowing how to use does not mean knowing how to make talismans. Making talismans is much more difficult than using talismans. In the inheritance of Longhu Mountain, being able to make the Purple Palace Divine Thunder Talisman means that you can pass on the Dharma and accept disciples. Now Zhang Xiu's cultivation can barely be made. He has not passed the formal assessment in the sect. But he is confident that he has this confidence.

Young people are all competitive, and there are so many pairs of expectant and admirable eyes at him during the meal. How could Zhang Xiu refuse? He nodded immediately and said, "You must be sincere and honest in making the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman. This is the case. It doesn't matter how many days I'll leave late. I'll drink a lot today. I'll take a day off tomorrow to nourish my spirits. The day after tomorrow I'll draw a Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman on Fangzheng Peak."

The next day, when Zhang Xiu was resting, Mei Zhenyi specially sent a box of "dried smoked fish" to help Zhang Xiu replenish his vitality. On the third day, when the sun rose, a table was placed in the center of the platform of Fang Zhengfeng Square. There were paved yellow silk and adjusted cinnabar on the table, but there was no pen. The talisman pen was also a special magic weapon, and Mei Zhenyi did not.

Zhang Xiu used the thirteen array talismans to arrange a thunder-induced array five meters in a circle around the table, and then walked to the table to arrange the strokes.

The jade talisman is just a dead object. It needs to be cast to draw its magical use before it can form a formation. Zhang Xiu stood in the formation to cast spells. Mei Zhenyi was carefully experiencing it with his spiritual consciousness in the distance. He found that this formation attracted the sharp energy of the earth in the spiritual hub of the heaven and earth, but it was attracted but not emitted, and it was all condensed on Zhang Xiu's pen. Zhang Xiu looked solemn, and this talisman was drawn very slowly. If you do not observe continuously, you almost suspect that it is a statue that cannot move.

This talisman was painted for two days and one night, from the early morning of the first day to the dusk of the next day, a purple palace divine thunder talisman was completed. There are several requirements for drawing this talisman. First, the cultivation of the talisman is the higher the cultivation level, the faster it will be. If the cultivation level is not even able to lift the pen, Zhang Xiudi's cultivation level is just on the threshold.

The second is how much sharp energy condensed by the thunder-induced array. If it is the fastest when the sky is covered with thunder and clouds, it does not mean that the more, the better. It must be released slowly through the pen tip to the talisman within the range where the magic power can be controlled but not emitted.

Mei Zhenyi sat at the peak of Fang Zhengfeng for two days and nights, gathered her mind and looked at Zhang Xiu carefully, imprinting his every move, every step and mystery in his heart. Some mysteries can be seen, such as Zhang Xiu's pen, some mysteries can sense the earth, such as the subtle changes in the thunder position, but some mysteries cannot be seen or sensed.

After all, Mei Zhenyi had never learned the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Dharma, nor had he learned the basic methods of making various talismans. He could not draw out a purple thunder talisman in the same way. No matter how smart he was, he could not have read it once on the surface, otherwise Zhang Xiu would not have agreed to demonstrate it on the spot.

But Mei Zhenyi gained something else. He thought about it in his mind that he had realized the thunder thunder technique. Zhang Xiu arranged the thunder thunder array and used his pen to condense the sharp energy of the world and all things on the tip of the pen. Mei Zhenyi's thunder of the divine night can be completely learned from its use. Zhang Xiu did not have a pointing needle, but used a formation and a pen to exert similar magical powers. Moreover, the consumption of magic power was much more relaxed, but he kept drawing for two days and one night!

When Zhang Xiu put down his pen, he withdrew the spell, and the sharp energy condensed by the thunder formation was exhausted. He was so tired that he could hardly walk. Two servants carried him down Fangzhengfeng in sedan chair. Back to Tingsong, there were naturally "dried smoked fish" that replenishes vitality. It was a benefit for Mei Zhenyi, and there was no shortage of various spiritual medicines to assist in practice.

Although Zhang Xiu was exhausted, he was very excited and seemed particularly excited. There was one thing he did not tell Mei Zhenyi. Although he had learned how to make the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman and was confident that he was sure to make it, it was the first time he had made the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman himself. He was reluctant to give this Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman. He wanted to stay by his side as a souvenir, and he also took it back to express his merits to his father. He was not in vain for the past five months in Qingyi Sanshan, and he successfully made the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman.

Zhang Xiu was about to say goodbye the next day and left. When he returned to Songju to rest for a few hours, he was relieved a little, and he was still very excited. He sent his servant to Xiaozhu Suiyu to invite Mei Zhenyi, and he must talk with his brother Zhangzhuan. Just talk. Mei Zhenyi ordered people to make some medicinal snacks and came to talk to Zhang Xiuye.

Zhang Xiu finally told the truth and admitted to Mei Zhenyi that this was the first purple thunder talisman he drew. Mei Zhenyi congratulated him, and Zhang Xiu was very happy. During the chat between the whole world, Mei Zhenyi asked: "Brother can condense the magic power he cast into a talisman and then trigger it in one go. The power is really great. Is there a limit to using this method?"

Zhang Xiu smiled and said, "Of course there are limits. It is very difficult to control the spell in this way. The carrying capacity of a talisman is also limitless. In terms of practice, it has reached the extreme. If it is used too much, it will deviate from the original intention of practice... Brother. I ask you, why is the purpose of drawing talismans?"

Mei Zhenyi: "I think there are three points, one is to facilitate the use of magic, two is to protect the disciples, and three is to practice one's own cultivation."

Zhang Xiu slapped the table: "It's right. Just like the way you mentioned a few days ago, refining weapons is also a kind of cultivation process. Look at my talisman drawing process, which is also a kind of cultivation process. Although it is very tiring, it also helps in practice. If it exceeds this level, it will harm ourselves. Since we are practitioners, there is no need to harm ourselves due to external talismans, right?"

Mei Zhenyi: "Yes, talismans are useful, but the way to make talismans is cultivated by the body, which is connected with the way to refine and control weapons. You cannot be addicted to the use of external objects and forget the original intention of practice... Brother, I would like to ask, is there anyone who makes talismans just to make talismans, but deviates from the original meaning of practice?"

Zhang Xiu: "Of course there is. In fact, as long as the practice of various methods involves supernatural powers and uses, disciples are prone to such deviations. When teaching the way of talismans, the master must first remind the disciples of this issue... There is another situation where some sects only make talismans, only seeking their use, and even consuming their own vitality to draw a rare talisman."

Mei Zhenyi: "Why haven't I heard of which school?"

Zhang Xiu: "It is not my Taoist, but Nestorian monks have this saying, but the talismans they painted are not called talismans, but scrolls. I wonder if you have heard of it?... These people are also interesting. They believe in the only highest god and all glory is returned to the Lord."

Have Mei Zhenyi heard of the scroll? Of course he has heard of it, but that was the first time I read mysterious novels before traveling through time. It was Zhang Xiu’s first time since traveling through time to the Tang Dynasty. The so-called “the only highest god” is called “God” in modern Chinese, but in the original meaning of Western text, it is a very primitive word “God”, because in the teachings of Nestorianism, God is the only supreme god, and there is no need to use any special noun.

In modern history, Western missionaries translated "God" in the Bible into "God" because there are too many gods in the Chinese language system to show the difference. In fact, this is a misunderstanding and stealing of names. If you mention the word "God" among Taoist monks, no one will think it is Jehovah. In traditional Chinese, God refers to Mr. Sui - Xuanqiong Gao God, which is his exclusive title in the heaven and earth.

The prosperous Tang Dynasty was full of softness and a broad mind. There were monks from various religions in Guanzhong, including Nestorians. Nestorians also went to Longhu Mountain to preach the missionary sites. The local people did not like it. Zhang Xiu had contacted and communicated privately, and learned some details and told Mei Zhenyi as a story.

Mei Zhenyi asked with interest: "How powerful is the scroll they made?"

Zhang Xiu: "The power is similar to ordinary talismans, and they usually do not hurt themselves. However, it is not ruled out that they specially process a very small number of extremely powerful scrolls by using methods that consume their essence. If the power is too great than one person can carry, the production and use process may hurt themselves, and it is very difficult to make, just to pursue the ultimate use of things. But according to my understanding of the way of talismans, no matter how extravagant material desires, the scroll itself has its limit to carrying."

Mei Zhenyi: "How powerful is this scroll that is close to the load limit than the Purple Palace Divine Thunder Talisman?"

Zhang Xiu smiled: "The power of the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman can be large or small. You should have experienced it yourself. One should see the right time and place, and the other should see how capable you are. This is in line with the way of controlling weapons, and it is not entirely in the talisman itself. If you make a scroll with the most powerful power, it may be worse or stronger. Therefore, the Purple Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman is already the ultimate of the talisman technique, which refers to this state, rather than the power of a certain talisman when it is used."

Mei Zhenyi bowed and said, "Listen to my brother, it's better to read a thousand-year-old book. There is one thing I finally understand."

Zhang Xiu: "Brother, you are too exaggerated. How can you describe it as the word "thousand years"?"

Mei Zhenyi: "If you exaggerate, just exaggerate. I really feel deeply moved!"

The next day, in front of the gate of Wuhu Villa, which had not yet been fully built, Zhang Xiu boarded the ship and left, left Qingyi Lake and entered Qingyi River and walked along the waterway. Mei Zhenyi led everyone to wave goodbye until the shadow of the sail disappeared into the sky.

When everyone was about to turn around and leave, they swiftly floated over and said, "Mr. Mei, when will you go to Longhu Mountain as a guest? Can you take me with you? I also want to go out to watch the fun, just like last time I went to Danxia Peak."

Mei Zhenyi snorted and said, "I just want to go out to watch the fun, but don't want to practice well? You can gather into a solid form as soon as possible, so it's convenient to go out, otherwise it's not easy to boast about the majesty of the Sanshan General Manager."

Ti Liuliu and pestered Mei Zhenyi and said, "Since you said that, there must be a more sophisticated Taoist teaching me."

Mei Zhenyi: "Do you want to learn? Let me get a big bowl of sand by Qingyi Lake first and deliver it to Qiyunguan's kitchen."

"What did Mr. Mei want me to make a bowl of sand to deliver to the kitchen? I can't cook." Ti Liuzhuo was puzzled, and the others next to me were also very curious.
Chapter completed!
