After my grandmother called me home in my dream, my spiritual energy revived

Chapter 46 Aura Halo
Song Miaozhu searched for more videos related to handicrafts.

In recent years, intangible cultural heritage has been a hot topic, and there are many related short videos.

As she scrolled through the pages, she discovered that there were quite a few examples of spiritual energy being activated.

An old farmer making bamboo weaving, a Miao grandmother making batik, an uncle making oil-paper umbrellas, an old grandfather making clay sculptures...

Most of them are elderly craftsmen.

There are also many young people who shoot such videos. They are more familiar with the Internet, and the videos they shoot are more attractive and more popular.

There are several bloggers in this field with millions of followers.

But unfortunately, there is basically no phenomenon of spiritual energy gathering in their recent works.

Song Miaozhu guessed that there was still a gap in craftsmanship.

Each video challenges the production of a traditional handicraft, and the finished product looks amazing, but it is ultimately a quick creation.

I learned a lot, but not in depth.

Similar in appearance but not in spirit.

Reiki doesn't lie.

It seems that this time when spiritual energy is revived, the practice rules are undoubtedly to make handicrafts.

The better the craftsmanship, the stronger the attraction to spiritual energy, so the first people to change nowadays are the old craftsmen.

They have devoted most of their lives to studying a craft, and it is not easy for later generations to catch up with them.

But there is one strange thing.

Whether it is Grandpa Zhao, Master He Zhen, or the veteran craftsmen seen in the short videos, the level of their skills in their respective fields is definitely incomparable to her, who has picked up paper-making again for less than a month.

It is normal for them to attract more spiritual energy.

It has been nearly a month since the spiritual energy was revived. With their ability to draw spiritual energy, they have absorbed more spiritual energy, but for some reason, they have not yet opened their third eye.

It is obvious from the video that they are completely unaware of the existence of spiritual energy.

Most of the spiritual energy was integrated into their limbs, but not into their eyes.

Song Miaozhu compared the appearance of these old craftsmen in the videos since their spiritual energy was revived, and asked Zhao Mumu uncertainly:
"Sister Mu Mu, look at these people. In the videos they've posted over the past month, don't they all seem to be getting younger?

The old Miao grandmother's hunched back straightened a little.

This old farmer who makes bamboo weaving still works in the fields every day, but he seems to have become a little whiter.

This uncle who makes oil-paper umbrellas had white hair when he was young, but in recent videos, he has less white hair.

And this one, this old man who makes clay sculptures would start panting after kneading the clay for a while in previous videos. He has asthma, but in the latest video, he can knead the clay in one go."

"It seems so," Zhao Mumu said. "Master has always been in good health, but the changes in his hair are quite obvious. Could it be that spiritual energy has the effect of strengthening the body?"

"It should be." Song Miaozhu said.

She also had some guesses about the fact that the old craftsmen absorbed more spiritual energy but seemed to be unaware of the existence of the spiritual energy spots.

It is very likely that the original physical condition is not good, so more spiritual energy is needed to improve the body.

Song Miaozhu remembered that when she absorbed spiritual energy, it initially merged into her body and limbs.

Yesterday was the first time I looked into her eyes.

Every time a bit of spiritual energy merged into her eyes, she felt her vision became clearer and her observation of spiritual energy became more subtle.

Haven't had time to try it today.

After the plaque was installed and Zhao Mumu left, Song Miaozhu quickly printed out the information for the purchased goods and put them in the ghost shop. Then she cut some gold paper and started making golden lotus flowers.

At first, the spiritual light spots were directed into her eyes.

Song Miaozhu felt that the patterns on the gold paper in her hand became extremely clear.

As more spiritual light spots merged into her eyes, her vision began to change again.

Suddenly, a thin halo appeared on the nine-petal golden lotus in his hand, appearing and disappearing like a firefly.

It is clearly still of the first rank, but it looks different.

Looking closely, the halo is not quite the same as the halo of the first-grade golden lotus, but is somewhat similar to the colorful light emitted by spiritual energy.

It wasn't just the golden lotus she had just made that was like this. All the golden lotuses she had made before, whether they were of good quality or not, were like this.

The halo of a good quality golden lotus is slightly stronger, while that of a poor quality one is slightly weaker.

She took out the gold ingots she had made from the ghost shop and took a look at them, and saw the same thing.

They all have this halo, and the higher the quality, the more obvious the halo.

However, there was no trace of this halo on the gold ingots left to her by her grandmother.

Given the quality of those gold ingots, this shouldn't be the case, unless... these halos are related to spiritual energy.

Song Miaozhu got up and went outside to look at the sign of her own paper shop.

Sure enough, there was also a thin halo on it.

The halo is the strongest at the relief of the gold-painted ingot.

Turning around and looking at the door of the escape room store next door, I saw that there was no such halo on their sign.

There are two plaques, one was carefully made by Grandpa Zhao, and the other was a casual practice work by Zhao Mumu.

Then go watch the handmade videos of veteran craftsmen and internet celebrities with millions of followers on the Internet.

The video was shot with a crude technique and a messy background, but the result had a thin halo.

The other video was beautifully shot, every frame was of movie quality, and the work was quite realistic, but there was no halo on it.

Song Miaozhu was almost certain that this aura halo was the proof of the spiritual energy being integrated into the handicraft.

Let’s call it the aura halo for now!
If you look closely, handicrafts with aura have an indescribable charm and appear more lively than those without.

She hadn't seen it before, maybe her eyesight wasn't good enough.

Song Miaozhu went to look at the little paper figure in the trash can under the counter.

These little paper figures are the result of her paper-cutting practice during this period.

But it has no spiritual power and is always controlled by Yin energy. It also uses ordinary white paper. The little paper man can't move for long and becomes motionless.

At this point, these little paper figures have turned into ordinary white paper, without any spiritual halo on them.

But when she was cutting the paper figures, it was clear that there was spiritual energy incorporated into them.

Song Miaozhu tried cutting the paper figure again. This time, after the spiritual energy was absorbed, she could clearly see an extra layer of spiritual energy halo on the paper figure.

As she used her Yin Qi to control it to move around the shop for a few rounds, the spiritual halo on the paper man became weaker and weaker. When it lost its vitality and became motionless again, the spiritual halo disappeared completely.

Only then did Song Miaozhu realize that the paper figures she cut always lasted shorter than what was described in the "Secret Art of Paper-making". It was not because of the Yin Qi, but because there was not enough spiritual energy in the paper.

The little bit of spiritual energy she incorporated into the origami process was not enough to turn ordinary white paper into spiritual white paper.
