My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 151 Bystander
"Okay, here are four candidates." King Pingyuan said to Wang Rong, Wang Yan, and Zhang Hua, "I also ask San Gong to choose one to be the test subject of King Yuzhang."

After Wang Rong, Wang Yan, and Zhang Hua talked with each other for a few words, Wang Rong said, "The three of us choose the second one."

Wang Huangfu of Pingyuan took out the second blank paper dryly, coughed a few more times, and then said: "Recommended by King Zhao Huangfulun, Zhongshan Liu Yueshi!"

As soon as Huangfu Gan read out this name, there was an uproar in the four seats.

There is no other, just because: Zhongshan Liu Yueshi is full of talent in Luoyang!
"The huben in front of the palace, Zhongshan Liu Yueshi, has met His Royal Highness King Yuzhang!"

"I've heard that Zhongshan Liuyue Stone has three specialties, Yinjue, Jianjue, and Fujue. In the past, Xiao Wang only saw Yueshi's Yinjue and Jianjue. Today, I can see Fujue, which is a great comfort to my life!" This Liu Yueshi is One of the 24 Shangluo friends is someone Huangfu Mi is very familiar with, Zhou Xing immediately imitated Huangfu Mi's tone and said politely.

"Your Majesty is too famous." Liu Yueshi replied respectfully, "Yueshi is also proud of being able to compete with the King on talismans."

This Liu Yueshi was only 27 or [-] years old, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, square face and wide mouth, with righteousness between his brows, thick but not messy beard, very neatly trimmed, which set off his extraordinary appearance.

While the two were talking, an eunuch had already moved over two tables.There are five stacks of talisman papers placed on the left side under the table, they are cyan, red, yellow, black and white.On top of the talisman paper were placed five cups made of black jade with a circumference of more than two inches. Inside the cups were some thick blood-red liquid.There is a note under each cup, on which are written Yimuye, Lihuoye, Gengjinye, Guishuiye, and Xutuye.Looking to the right, there are five cyan jade bowls in order. Inside the jade bowls are cinnabar, yellow alum, Bailingsha, Zeng Qingshi and Fenghuang.Immediately after was a stone mortar, which contained a stone pestle that was as thick as a baby's arm.Next to the stone mortar is a small scale with a tray.There is also a row of talisman pens of different sizes with black rods and pekoe in the middle of the table.

"It's broken!" Seeing this, Zhou Xing couldn't help crying in his heart.

He originally thought that he just used the prepared talisman liquid to make talismans on talisman paper, although he had never touched a talisman after coming to this world.But he was originally a god-level player in talismans, and his familiarity with making talismans was unmatched by anyone.He firmly believes that as long as he holds the talisman pen, he can quickly find the feeling of drawing talismans in that world in the past.This is like walking and swimming. Once you learn to get used to it, your body will never forget it no matter how long it takes.

Can you prepare the talisman liquid yourself?
The reason why talismans are difficult to learn is that the requirements in every aspect are very delicate and complex.There are many ores in this world that contain aura, and the properties of each ore are different. This world classifies them as the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.When it comes to each type of ore, there are also quality issues, that is to say, for different quality ores, the purity and concentration of the aura contained in it are different.What can be crafted is rigor and precision.If the concentration of aura contained in the talisman liquid is low, different problems will occur. At least, the talisman fails to be made, and at worst, the aura collides and explodes.

"Create two different types of talismans within two hours, and the one with the better quality wins." Huangfu's breathless voice sounded again.

Zhou Xing is not a person who likes to blame others, since he has chosen the talisman, since the matter cannot be changed, it is useless for him to regret it.Zhou Xing tried his best to calm himself down, closed his eyes, and carefully recalled the proportion of the quality of various spirit stones in the online game world before, and recalled how much the talisman liquid should be added.His incomparably transformed divine consciousness showed powerful effects at this time. As he tried hard to recall, the pictures and data appeared frame by frame in his mind, unexpectedly so clear.

The situation on the field at this time was very strange.

Zhou Xing just stood there with his eyes closed, motionless, as if he was sleepwalking rather than just testing grades.

And Liu Yueshi's side was indeed proceeding in an orderly and orderly manner.It depends on how he first weighed different quantities of cinnabar, yellow alum and Fenghuang, put them together into the stone mortar, and then poured a certain amount of Lihuo liquid into it.Then began to grind vigorously with a stone pestle.When the ores are crushed, the aura in them will be released, and then be sucked into the liquid above.The aura-filled liquid is the talisman liquid for the talisman makers.

There is no rush in this process, if the grinding is fast, the spiritual energy will evaporate too quickly, and the liquid will not be absorbed in time, and the excess spiritual energy will be wasted.Liu Yueshi's hands are very white, but full of strength.Seeing that he was not in a hurry, he was grinding the spirit mine in the stone mortar one by one, with a concentrated expression, and he didn't even look at the situation on Zhou Xing's side.

At this time, Empress Jia looked at Zhou Xing with sparks in her eyes. She didn't expect that the person she had placed high hopes on was so stupid that he changed the plan temporarily. "I was born as a commoner, and I really don't have any rules for doing things! After thousands of reminders, how could a commoner dare to ignore the words of a dignified queen like himself. What a trick!" She cursed bitterly in her heart.

If eyesight could kill, Empress Jia's eyesight would have killed Zhou Xing countless times.

All the people present, except for the emperor Huangfuzhong who was sitting on the dragon chair with a dazed expression that had nothing to do with him, everyone had different expressions when they saw this situation.

The three court princes on the left, Wang Rong, Wang Yan, Zhang Hua, and the others still had the calm look on their faces, as if no matter what strange things happened on the field, the three of them would not change.

As for the princes and kings on the right, King Pingyuan is still coughing from time to time with his old eyesight.King Zhao Huangfulun kept smiling and exchanging opinions on Liu Yueshi's skillful talisman making technique with Shen Xiu behind him.Huainan Wang Huangfuyun looked at Zhou Xing with mixed emotions, a little disappointed, but also a little unbearably excited.Qi Wang Huangfu 囧 looked at Liu Yueshi, his gaze was full of thirst for talent, and he just shook his head at Zhou Xing.

Inside the palace, the gilt engraving on one corner made a constant beeping sound, and time continued to pass.The eunuch who told the time drew his voice and shouted: "The hour has come."

Looking at the field again, Liu Yueshi had prepared five kinds of talisman fluids, holding the talisman pen in his hand, and was meticulously drawing runes on a piece of yellow talisman paper.The most critical step in the final quality of a talisman is the depiction of the rune, and every stroke shows the skill.The vellus at the front end of the talisman pen is filled with aura-filled talisman liquid, and these talisman liquids pass through the talisman paper drawn by the talisman pen.Which strokes use a thin pen, which one uses a thick pen, which pen is dipped in Yimu liquid, and which pen is dipped in Lihuo liquid.Whether each rune should be depicted with Xutu liquid, Guishui liquid or Gengjin liquid, all of these must be done exactly.

It is precisely because of the esoteric and difficult study of talismans that among monks, talisman masters are extremely rare.Among a hundred monks, there are about three or five talisman masters.And every talisman teacher will be respected and sought after by everyone.As big as armor and weapons, as small as portable talismans, talismans are extremely versatile.

Just when Liu Yueshi was concentrating on drawing the first talisman, Zhou Xing finally opened his eyes, and there was a flash of light in his eyes, and there was no trace of panic on his face.

He took out a little cinnabar from the jade bowl containing cinnabar without haste, weighed it carefully, put the weighed cinnabar into the stone mortar, and added some measured Lihuo liquid, Then began to grind up.He added a very small amount, and after grinding for a while, he stopped.First, I took a piece of talisman paper, dipped it in the talisman liquid with a thin talisman pen, and drew a few strokes on the talisman paper.The talisman liquid was drawn on the talisman paper with the tip of the pen, and was quickly absorbed by the talisman paper.Zhou Xing stretched out his left hand, and gently stroked the drawn rune with his index finger, a faint fluctuation of spiritual power was transmitted from his fingertips to the brain through the nerves.

"The aura concentration of the talisman liquid has weakened." Zhou Xing immediately judged the result.

He also weighed some cinnabar, added it into the stone mortar again, ground it finely for a while, and repeated the action just now.

"It's still faded."

After repeating this three times, Zhou Xing finally nodded in satisfaction.He raised his eyes to look at the engraved leak in one corner, and it has been an hour and a half, and it is already too late if he wants to completely mix the five talisman liquids of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.He glanced at Liu Yueshi next to him again, and found that he had already drawn one talisman, and now he was concentrating on making the second one.

When everyone on the field saw this situation, they were all powerful people, they had experienced many storms, and they would not easily speak up and make a decision until the last moment.But everyone has basically judged that Zhou Xing has failed, and time is far from enough.As for Liu Yueshi, everyone praised him highly.

The production of talismans requires very delicate techniques, and no mistakes can be tolerated, so its failure rate is very high.It is rumored that Liu Yueshi's talent in making talismans is unparalleled, and now it seems that the rumors are true, it really is Liu Yueshi from Zhongshan who is full of talent in Shangluo!
Looking at Zhou Xing over there, he still has that unhurried expression. He is starting to make Xutuye.It can be seen that the number of spirit mines he weighed is far less than the amount Liu Yueshi weighed.Everyone was an expert with sharp eyes, and Xin Dao's talisman liquid was probably not enough to make two talismans. It seemed that King Yuzhang was about to give up.

Zhou Xing didn't pay any attention to everyone's eyes, and he didn't have time to pay attention.After making Xutu Ye, he no longer made Rune Liquid.Picking up a talisman pen and a piece of talisman paper, he began to draw the runes.

This move immediately made Situ Wang Rong's eyes brighten, who had always seemed to be wandering away, and his body couldn't help leaning forward slightly!
Among the three lords, Situ Wang Rong is recognized as the world's number one talisman master.

The production of this talisman, such as the fireball talisman, not only needs those combined runes that can form a fireball, but also needs an initiator, a buffer, and a protection talisman.Otherwise, it is just a fireball rune. When the talisman is made, it will burn or even explode.Therefore, most of the runes needed on a talisman are runes with three or four five-element attributes, not just a single attribute.But Zhou Xing now needs to use a single five-element talisman to make talismans!
Wang Rong's change was immediately noticed by Wang Yan who was beside him.Wang Yan's accomplishments on the talisman were not comparable to his third brother Wang Rong, but with his knowledge of cultivation as a first-rank grand master and the strong foundation of the Jinyang Wang family, he thought of a possibility.At that moment, Shu Yin transmitted his voice to Wang Rong and said, "Third brother, could it be that this son wants to use..."

Wang Rong turned his head to look at him, smiled slightly, and said in the same voice: "That's right, there is only one possibility, using ancient runes to draw symbols!"

Legend has it that the runes were issued by the great sage Fuxi according to the Hetu Luoshu.The runes that are circulating now are almost completely different from the runes in ancient times.The runes in the ancient times were more complicated and profound, and very few could understand and learn them.In later generations, there were countless talented geniuses who gradually issued new simple runes to replace the ancient runes because the ancient runes were too esoteric.Therefore, there are two versions of ancient talisman and new talisman in the talisman world.It's just that after the ancient runes passed through Daqin's burning of books and pits, there are very few people in this world who understand ancient runes.

Runes are divided into ancient runes and modern runes.The ancient runes are profound and difficult to understand, and the advantage is that each rune is almost a talisman.Moreover, the quality and power of talismans drawn with ancient runes are generally much higher than those drawn with modern runes.

Not to mention that Wang Rong and Wang Yan looked at Zhou Xing expectantly. Zhou Xing in the field was a little obscure at the beginning, and he had thrown away three failed talismans at hand.But at this time, Zhou Xingyun's brush was like swimming in the water, and the familiar feeling in the past had already returned to his body. In less than three quarters, he had finished drawing the two talismans.When I looked up, the missing time at that moment was still two quarters of an hour away, and it was only two hours.

"Papa papa." Everyone in the hall was shocked by Zhou Xing's mythical speed, and when they were stunned, they heard a person's applause.Everyone followed the voice and saw that it was Liu Yueshi who had already drawn two talismans. "His Royal Highness's skills are extraordinary and refined, and Yue Shi admires it!"

Zhou Xing had a good impression of this man named Liu Yueshi, and when he heard the other party's praise, he nodded and smiled at the other party, his behavior was quite in line with his status as the King of Yuzhang.

"The two princes and Duke Zhang," Zongzheng Pingyuan King Sima Gan said again, "You three are recognized as great masters in the world, so it's up to you three to judge the quality of the talismans of King Yuzhang and Liu Yueshi."

"As for the talisman, with Wang Situ around, I'll just be a bystander." Sikong and Zhang Hua laughed.

"Zhang Sikong is too polite." Wang Rong also responded with a smile, "Come on, we three old fellows will see how the younger generation's talismans are."

Everyone first came to Liu Yueshi's table. Wang Rong picked up a talisman with a faint red light on it, and gently stroked the surface of the talisman with his fingertips, feeling the spiritual power contained in each rune of this talisman. Nodding his head in satisfaction, he said: "The brushwork is round and proficient, and the spiritual power is evenly distributed. The connection of each rune is seamless, and the layout is reasonable without being complicated. It is obvious that the understanding of the runes is very deep. This fireball talisman is definitely of the middle grade Medium, there is only a slight gap from the middle grade. Good! Good! Good!"
