How to use "Jinghong Pen" to construct a new spell?
Gu Xu had been pondering this issue for a long time.
As a time traveler, he has many excellent poems and poems from his past lives in his mind.
He originally thought that as long as he casually copied a poem with the "Jinghong Pen", the corresponding image would immediately appear, producing extremely terrifying power.
Just like the "Everything is empty and silent" method he used in Lu's old house.
As long as you write "Thousands of birds fly away, thousands of people disappear", you can turn into a vast white snow scene and erase all the extraordinary elements on your opponent - such as the monk's true energy, the special attributes of the magic weapon, and the ghost's Mana and more.
But after that, he copied many more poems from his previous life, but unfortunately the "Jinghong Pen" didn't react at all, as if it had turned into an ordinary brush.
until today.
When he watched Shi Xiaohan dressed in black and finally walking into the "Mingzhi Hall" without hesitation, the song "The Sapphire Case" written by the Song Dynasty poet He Zhu involuntarily appeared in his mind.
In this poem, the beauty drifts away in late spring, "stepping slightly on the waves, and dust in her socks". Only spring knows her whereabouts.
Of course, the reason why Gu Xu thought of this poem was not because of the idle worry of "longing for a beautiful woman but not having the chance to meet her".
He just felt that the feeling of loss in the words was very similar to his own state of mind at this time.
Like a steady spring rain.
Like catkins flying in the wind in Yishui County.
So, at this moment, he vaguely understood the essentials of using the "Jinghong Pen"——
It lies in true feelings and comes from the heart.
Because of this, simple and crudely copied words have no effect.
It’s no wonder that many years ago, the ancestors of the Lu family were able to achieve enlightenment through poetry and painting without practicing spells or martial arts, and eventually ascended to immortality.
It turns out that in his eyes, the process of writing poetry and painting is a process of understanding the true meaning of the great road and asking one's own inner voice.
"Jinghong Pen" was once the birthright of the ancestors of the Lu family.
Naturally, it also inherited the way of enlightenment from the ancestors of the Lu family.
So, in this bitter cold winter, Gu Xu sat by the window of the library, looking out at the empty and lonely courtyard, and used the "Jinghong Brush" to construct its second spell——
"The city is full of wind and catkins".
…………
The cold wind howled and the snow fell.
Time flies.
Unknowingly, more than ten days had passed since Shi Xiaohan entered the "Mingzhi Hall" for retreat.
It was soon time for Gu Xu to leave Yishui County and go to the Laoshan ruins, and she didn't come out from there either.
And Gu Xu is still the same as usual.
Eat, practice, and do tasks.
The life of a practitioner in the Exorcist Department is always like this, simple, boring and boring.
It wasn't until the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, when the "Realm of Taoism" opened again, that new waves appeared in his life.
Gu Xu sat on his bamboo mat, holding the "Magic Token" in his hand, and once again stepped onto the arena floating in the endless darkness.
This time, the opponent he matched was called "Kun".
Of course Gu Xu remembered that "Kun" was Chu Fengge's code name.
In particular, as soon as this opponent entered the ring, he started to announce his poem number with his head held high, which made Gu Xu confirm his identity 100%.
I saw Chu Fengge holding his hands behind his back and reciting impassionedly: "I have a sword to kill the enemy. The jade edge is like a white rainbow. Thousands of armies are destroyed while talking and laughing, and the cold light breaks through the sky."
"Isn't that guy Chu Fengge a fourth-level monk? If I remember correctly, the 'Realm of Discussing the Tao' is a duel between monks of the same level, but why am I matched with him?" Gu Xu felt this in his heart Somewhat confused, "Is it possible to open a small account to fry fish in this 'realm of discussing the Tao'?"
Chu Fengge on the opposite side quickly told him the answer: "There are currently too few fourth-level monks in the 'Shenji Camp'. I waited for a long time and couldn't find anyone, so I was asked to suppress the level and follow you." Let’s fight this second level monk.”
Hearing his words, Gu Xu nodded, feeling that this arrangement was quite good.
After all, the original intention of the saints of the Daqi Dynasty in creating the "Realm of Taoism" was to help the young monks in the reserve force of the "Shenji Camp" to hone their practical abilities.
After defeating "Qilin", "Bifang", and "Qingluan" in succession, Gu Xu felt that there should be no monks of the same realm in this "Realm of Taoism" who could compete with him.
Continuing to bully the weak will obviously not help improve one's fighting ability.
It would be better to compete with a high-level monk like Chu Fengge in advance.
"That's a coincidence, Mr. Chu." After hearing Chu Fengge's words, Gu Xu smiled and said in a joking tone, "In addition, Mr. Chu, in my personal opinion, your poem title this time is , the standard seems to be somewhat inferior to last time!”
Before attacking your opponent, find a way to distract him.
This is a tactic Gu Xu learned from "Qilin".
The sweet and clear "good brother" in "Qilin"'s mouth, for ordinary people, is as lethal as mental attack spells.
For Chu Fengge, one of the most lethal words is undoubtedly his latest poem.
Sure enough, as soon as Gu Xu finished speaking, Chu Fengge immediately raised his voice and said angrily: "That's not because my subordinates are too useless! If they have you... no, have half the literary talent of Miss Lu, I Why worry about not having a good poem title?"
"Then Mr. Chu, do you need me to send you a message?" Gu Xu said with a smile, "For example, 'autumn frost cuts the jade sword, and the setting sun pearl robe'——"
"Shut up! Stop talking!" Chu Fengge immediately interrupted him sharply.
If Gu Xu continued to talk like this, Chu Fengge was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the temptation, so he put down his dignity and asked Gu Xu to help him write a new poem title.
He, Chu Fengge, wanted to be the best man in the world, how could he do such a self-destructive thing?
This time, Gu Xu planned to fight with the technique of talisman and seal script.
Although he could not bring the "Jinghong Brush" into the "realm of discussing Taoism", he planned to try to use the technique of talisman and seal script to simulate the meaning of "the city is full of wind and catkins".
He already understood at this time that the "Jinghong Pen" was not only a weapon for fighting, but also a magic weapon that could help him understand the great truth and explore his true heart.
Although he is only a second-level monk now, with the "Jinghong Brush", he can already vaguely feel the breath of "Tao".
Whether it is "the sound is empty" or "the city is full of wind and catkins", they are all concrete products of "Tao".
So Gu Xu wanted to do a small experiment.
He wanted to reproduce this trace of "Tao" without getting rid of the "Jinghong Pen".
This may sound overconfident.
However, Gu Xu knew that his future goal was to become a saint.
"Tao" is an important hurdle that cannot be avoided on the road to sainthood.
