The essentials were taught all morning long, and many people fell asleep after listening to them.
But Chen Ping listened with gusto.
Such popular science may be boring to those monks who have already started, but for Chen Ping, these explanations gave him a very comprehensive understanding of the entire theoretical knowledge of talisman making.
Most of the things Master Qi taught are in books, but being in books and speaking out are two different things.
Chen Ping's previous life was included in the nine-year compulsory education knowledge books, but in the end only a few people could take the Qingbei exam.
So Chen Ping listened with great interest.
During the tea break, he did not miss the opportunity. He pestered Master Qi and asked him this and that, trying to squeeze Master Qi as much as possible.
During the afternoon practice, Chen Ping discovered that his 'anatomy technique' was indeed of great benefit to leather making.
Many things have been figured out.
This surprised him greatly.
But he didn't show it, and he still worked hard to learn how to make talisman skin bit by bit.
Whenever you see Master Qi free, stop him and ask him relevant questions.
"You kid, can you let me have a sip of tea? Master, I teach five students at a time, and I feel like I spend more time on you alone than the other four combined." Qi Jianglun scolded.
Chen Ping smiled apologetically and said:
"Master, they are talented and smart, and they can understand everything you ask. But I am different. If you don't ask for details clearly, you won't be able to learn."
"How is your cultivation?" Qi Jianglun's face turned dark.
Chen Ping said with a sad face:
"I have been practicing Qi for a long time, but I haven't made any progress for many years."
"No wonder you haven't been able to master these simplest essentials and techniques." Qi Jianglun said this, as if he felt sorry for Chen Ping. But I was secretly relieved.
Just now, he saw that Chen Ping kept asking this and that, and the questions he asked were from very tricky angles. He was afraid that Chen Ping would learn everything.
Now it seems that Chen Ping's cultivation level is too low and his qualifications are not good enough to master so much.
"Hey, what are you doing? Master, have you forgotten what I just taught you? When picking out the hard sutra strips, you should lift them gently and don't damage the surrounding cortex. After picking them up, you should repair the grooves, otherwise when you draw the talisman later, these grooves will The marks will automatically slip out of the ink, and one talisman skin will be completely destroyed." Qi Jianglun said angrily.
I thought how could anyone be so stupid.
He was so angry that his teeth itched.
"After you graduate, don't say you learned from me."
Qi Jianglun added another sentence.
Chen Ping smiled inwardly. The reason for this was to figure out how to fill in the dent.
During the lecture just now, Qi Jianglun was evasive on this point.
Obviously I don't want to teach it so deeply.
Chen Pingshun pole climbing:
"Master, how to fix it?"
Qi Jianglun was stunned for a moment and wanted to evade it, but he had already taken the initiative to talk about it here, and he didn't feel very good.
I can only give Chen Ping a general explanation of the techniques and essentials.
"You are still a beginner and your cultivation level is low. Don't think about this." After finishing speaking, Qi Jianglun said with some regret.
Chen Ping sneered:
"Yes, yes. The student is just a little curious."
"..."
After a day of study, Chen Ping felt that he was about to touch the threshold, but there were still many details and skills that needed to be squeezed out by Qi Jianglun.
Fortunately, there are still two days left, so there is still time.
After leaving Qi Jianglun's house, Chen Ping returned along the way he came.
Night had fallen by now.
Chen Ping secretly thought that something was wrong... he had learned too late and wanted to leave early in the next two days. It was too unsafe to walk on the road after dark.
It would be troublesome if they were robbed.
Fortunately, I didn't worry too much and the journey was uneventful.
Didn't encounter any danger, got home safe.
But just when he was about to push the courtyard door, Chen Ping's hand stopped.
...There was a feeling that something wasn't quite right.
...Has anyone been in there?
Chen Ping bent down warily, holding the hilt of the sword tightly with his hand.
The cat bent forward and crawled towards the side and rear of the house, and walked around the yard of Yu Qingyi's house.
After waiting for a while and not hearing any movement, he gently jumped onto the low courtyard wall at the blind spot of a house window and glanced around. There was no one in the courtyard.
Could it be that I am overthinking it?
He lightly jumped into the corner of the yard and crawled to the corner of the house.
...The door to the house was not damaged and the lock was still there.
...but the window had been tampered with, and the piece of grass he had placed in the gap fell out.
A thief?
then what?
Could there be anyone else in the house?
Chen Ping was alert and motionless in the corner, wanting to hear if there was any movement inside.
But after listening quietly for half a finger of fragrance, there was no sound.
Chen Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
If it was just a thief during the day, he wouldn't feel too bad. He had all the valuable things with him. The only expensive things in the house were the spiritual rice and animal meat.
But thieves generally don't break into houses to steal spiritual rice and animal meat.
Because it is too heavy to be taken away quietly.
But just when Chen Ping was about to let down his guard, he suddenly heard a soft conversation coming from inside the house.
Chen Ping's scalp was numb.
His body tensed up instantly.
"Brother, I clearly saw that kid walking down the street just now. Why hasn't he made any movement for so long? Did he see it wrong?" A soft voice said.
"Damn it, did you see it wrong?" The other voice was rougher, but also very quiet.
If Chen Ping hadn't been in the corner outside the window, he might not have been able to hear it.
"Hey, maybe I saw it wrong. It's dark and I can't see clearly."
"Be smarter, don't get caught."
"Brother, don't worry. The younger brother only made a small hole in the window. It's impossible for the outside world to notice."
After saying this, the room became quiet again.
Chen Ping suppressed his heartbeat and his brain quickly analyzed the current situation.
Judging from these two voices alone, the first thing Chen Ping thought of was the bearded group of meat sellers.
The sound matched perfectly.
The names also match.
Chen Ping just didn't know what the other party was going to do, so why was he targeting him?
Just because I helped He Xianxiang sell meat for a few days?
Then you want to kill me?
While Chen Ping was thinking, the sound of slight conversation inside appeared again.
"Brother, could it be that Yu Qingyi came back just now?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sound of something being knocked over.
Then there were muttered curses.
After a while, the younger brother's voice came:
"Brother, no, the lights are not on at Yu Qingyi's house."
"Mom, don't be surprised, kid, you're going to scare me to death." Then there was a heavy gasp from the bearded man as he relaxed.
The scene fell into silence again.
There was silence inside, and Chen Ping didn't say anything. He was patiently waiting for the best time.
Not only that, he also silently calculated their respective positions based on the conversation sounds of several people. He was rehearsing in his mind what moves he should make to defeat the enemy quickly.
Until the sound rings again:
"Brother, are we sure we can kill this kid?"
"What the hell do you mean? Didn't you find out through investigation that he was a servant who was kicked out of the Ning Mansion? He has no relatives and is only at the level of Qi training?" Brother Bearded Beard said in a dissatisfied voice.
"This is natural and cannot be wrong." A third voice said: "I'm just worried about He Xianxiang."
The bearded brother said:
"You don't have to worry about this. He Xianxiang is out on business and won't be back for a few days. By then, this kid will have been chopped into meat paste and sold by us. How can we pursue He Xianxiang without evidence?"
"That's true. When big brother, you and I get that set of sword skills, and after learning it, we can continue selling meat in another city. Then the business will be prosperous. That set of sword skills, tsk, tsk, tsk, I'm in Lianyun City I have been selling goods for decades and I have never seen such exquisite knife skills.”
"Second brother is right, this kid can learn it at the first level of Qi training, and we can learn it too."
The bearded brother’s voice rose one level:
"Damn it, it's my brother who's learning from me, not you."
"...I know, I know, brother is right."
"Stop talking and be smart."
