The two of them had made up their mind and set off immediately. The destination of their trip was Weinan, which was 800 kilometers away from Dongdu.
Hua Lao originally planned to take a carriage to the train station and take the Beijing-Guangzhou Line.
The Beijing-Guangzhou Line is an arc, and there are no direct trains to Weinan. You have to transfer twice on the way. Including the time to board the train, it takes at least two and a half days.
In Xu Shu's opinion, these two and a half days were just the right time for him to ask Mr. Hua for advice on the art of talismans.
He called Lu Jingxing directly and informed him of his route.
Half an hour later, he received a reply from Lu Jingxing, saying that all the itinerary along the way had been arranged, and that the whole journey would be connected by Tenglong vehicles, all the way to the destination.
An hour later, a Tengron car stopped in front of Hua's hometown.
The wide car body was unforgettable. A capable young man in formal attire came out of the cockpit and greeted Xu Shu diligently. He said that the boss of their Lida car dealership had given him five-star VIP service throughout the journey. What did Xu Shu have to ask for? , just give orders.
Xu Shu knew that it must be Lu Jingxing who said hello. Since all the favors were spent, there was no need to hold on to them.
After entering the cockpit, not only Hua Lao was shocked, but Xu Shu was also surprised.
This Tamron car lives up to its name. It is completely equipped with the top luxury cars of previous generations. The spacious cabin is equipped with five luxurious soft seats. The cockpit and cockpit are directly separated, providing excellent privacy.
In addition, there is a bar in the carriage, which is filled with drinks, snacks, and fruits.
What makes Xu Shu most satisfied is that the vehicle's shock absorption is excellent.
More than a hundred meters west of Hua's hometown, there is a washboard road. He didn't feel much bumps while sitting in the car.
"It has to be a big shot within the system. With just one phone call, all these resources can be deployed."
Hua Lao's eyes were full of envy.
Xu Shu took out a glass of red wine from the bar, gave Hua Lao a glass, and then turned to the topic, "I would like to ask Hua Lao if you can analyze the refining of the talisman for me in detail."
Xu Shu had read some notes about talismans, but most of them were about the application of strange talismans, which made him confused.
Now, since Xu Shu is determined to make talismans, naturally he can no longer move forward with his head covered.
Hua Laodao said, "I have only just had a first glimpse of the Tao of Fu. Fortunately, there are some like-minded people who gather together from time to time to strengthen each other and barely gain some experience in picking up the wisdom of others.
The so-called talisman actually attracts the power of heaven and earth into a square inch. "
Xu Shu nodded, "The mysterious combination of talisman paper, cinnabar, energy source, and talisman master can achieve great power within a small area. It is indeed an amazing method.
Dare I ask, is the talisman paper really just ordinary paper if it can hold the power of heaven and earth? "
Hua Lao shook his head and said, "Of course not. Before Yuanli was born, drawing talismans on yellow paper was just a trick to deceive ignorant women and children.
After the birth of Yuanli, there was a real talisman.
The so-called talisman paper is a special paper with the magic circle outlined.
In the early days, drawing talismans and making talisman paper were also insurmountable difficulties for the talisman masters.
Later, there were more talisman masters and the process of making talisman paper was industrialized, which saved a lot of trouble for those of us who are studying the art of talisman. "
Xu Shu nodded and said, "How did the great power of heaven and earth enter the talisman paper? What is the specific process?"
"The cinnabar is the guide and the magic power is the root. This magic power is the source of the Yin Discerner. Of course, the soul power of the day wandering soul in the Yin Soul Realm also counts.
Magic power cannot directly contact the mighty power of heaven and earth, so it can only use cinnabar as a primer. You can even understand the mighty power of heaven and earth as a red-hot iron and the cinnabar as special gloves.
It is with the help of cinnabar that mana can draw the mighty power of heaven and earth and guide it into the talisman.
The above is a popular explanation of the process of making talismans. "
Mr. Hua said that his mouth was dry. He picked up the red wine and took a sip.
Xu Shu nodded and said, "Then what is the difficulty in making talismans? The technical difficulties I am referring to have nothing to do with resources."
Hua Laodao said, "There are three difficulties: pulling, separating, and refining."
"What is traction?"
"The mana uses cinnabar to pull the required energy out of the energy source. At this speed, it may not be able to pull it, or it may pull too much energy source, causing the talisman paper to be destroyed."
"What is separation?"
"Successfully pulling a certain amount of energy source into the talisman paper, the separation of cinnabar and mana is another difficulty. If the separation is not good, the energy source that is absorbed only after shaking will also destroy the talisman paper."
"What is sacrifice?"
"After the separation is completed, the magic circles inherent in the talisman paper will merge.
In this process, rejection reactions inevitably occur.
It requires mana to refine the talisman. The so-called ritual talisman refining refers to this process.
Once the sacrificial refining fails, the magic circle and the energy source that guides the talisman paper will not be harmonious, and all the hard work ahead will be like drawing water from a bamboo basket. "
"Drawing, separating, and refining, I dare to ask, why are these three so difficult?"
"Of course it's pulling and training!"
"What's so difficult about pulling?"
"There are thousands of talismans in the world, and most of them are in the diversification of methods to draw energy sources. Different talismans, the amount of traction, and the details are all different, which creates different talismans.
For example, the fire energy source, the fireball talisman and the flame talisman are obviously the same energy source, but in the end there is an obvious difference, which is that the pulling method is different. "
"What difference does the amount of energy source pulling in make?"
"This involves the quality and grade of the talisman. The more energy sources the same type of talisman contains, the higher the quality and grade will naturally be."
"What's the difficulty in performing sacrifices?"
"The refining of talisman rituals mainly consumes energy and requires high mana. This hinders many talisman masters from refining high-quality talismans."
"Are Talisman Masters also divided into levels?"
"nature!"
"How to divide it?"
"There are special testing institutions. Of course, if you don't want to take part in the test, just practice the talisman once and your peers will know the quality.
The entry-level Talisman Master is a junior Talisman Master who has wasted sixty-three years. He is now a Junior Talisman Master. The Intermediate Talisman Master can at least draw talismans of medium difficulty. As for the Senior Talisman Master, he can already draw advanced Talisman Masters. .
Brother Xu, it’s too far away for you to ask these questions now, so you’d better focus on what’s in front of you.
I have a few notes and experiences on talisman refining here. You might as well look through them carefully first. If there is anything you don’t understand, we also have time to answer questions. "
With that said, Mr. Hua handed Xu Shu several thick booklets.
The reason why Mr. Hua donated so generously was not only because he gave Xu Shu a white demon core, which made him realize he was making a lot of money, but also because he did not believe that Xu Shu, a physical practitioner, could rely on the Lonely Talisman Refining, let alone a physical practitioner. He can do things that many Yin Discriminators cannot do.
Xu Shu got Hua Lao's notes and began to read them quietly. Even though he had superpowers, he still read very slowly. From time to time, he frowned in thought. If he couldn't understand after thinking, he would ask Hua Lao questions.
