Leisurely fairy way

Chapter 113 Puppet Doll

The first heavy snow in early winter came later than usual. Xiaochun heard the sound of snow crushing dead branches in the middle of the night. Feel.She used to live in the country with her grandmother, and when it snowed, it meant that the New Year was coming, and the children always liked to celebrate the New Year.

In the early morning, she opened the window and found that the courtyard was already white, but the snow had stopped for a long time, and a little sunlight slanted in from the window.She opened the door and walked out, taking care of the spirit grass as usual, and went to Ji Qingfeng's cave after clearing the snow in front of the court.It has been almost half a month since she came to Liusu Peak. In the past half month, she has been going deep into the extremely cold place, collecting snow lotus and ice, and has basically been able to complete the task within the stipulated time. After half a month of soaking in the medicinal liquid, she has absorbed the medicinal properties of the snow lotus. And Lingli, the many small scars left on her meridians have healed after going through various catastrophes this year.

The medicinal properties of snow lotus nourish the mind and warm the veins.Her five senses are now more sensitive than before, and the things that her spiritual sense can feel are also more subtle.In fact, this kind of nurturing is good for her. Her cultivation level is always too fast, and now she is deliberately suppressed at the eighth level of Qi refining, Xiaochun is not in a hurry to break through.Her ideal foundation building time is after she turns [-], so that she won't attract attention.

Ji Qingfeng told her yesterday that she doesn't have to go to extremely cold places anymore.

In other words, she has just officially started her life as an inner disciple.

"Master." Xiaochun bowed his hands respectfully to Ji Qingfeng. He sat on his stone platform and raised his hand slightly to signal her to kneel on the futon in front of him. Ji Qingfeng said, "Xiaochun, your exercises are for The teacher has already seen it for you."

He paused, then continued: "This exercise is extremely subtle and mysterious, and I can barely comprehend it. It won't do you any harm, so don't worry about it. I called you here to teach you your first spell, puppet According to the material used to make the puppets, the energy used to drive the puppets, and the different methods of making puppets, the grades of the puppets produced are also different. Have you seen Tianbao’s scarecrow magic circle, it is the puppets he refined.”

He waved his hand and released a puppet. This puppet was forged from black gold, with two blood-red monster inner pills embedded in its eyes. It actually exuded the pressure of the early foundation establishment period! "This is a puppet made for the master. Take a closer look." Xiaochun stood up, touched the puppet's arm, and patted its shoulder. This puppet is very strong.

"When you are fighting, the puppet can help you. It has no sense of pain, no five senses, and has fewer weaknesses than monks, but you have to separate the spiritual sense to control it. It has no thinking and cannot be flexible. This is also the biggest weakness of the puppet. And to drive the puppet to move, you must use spirit stones of the middle grade or above. As a teacher, this puppet must be driven by a high-grade spirit stone every time..." When he said this, he saw Xiaochun's eyes widen. A... high-grade spirit stone?Isn't that [-] low-grade spirit stones, she has never seen so many spirit stones, master, you are really rich.

"This is the basic refining method of puppet art. The selection of materials and fusion methods are all recorded in it." Ji Qingfeng handed over a jade slip, asked her to go back and sit down on her knees, and said solemnly: "There is a special type of puppet art. The material does not use heaven and earth spirits, but human beings, the flesh of monks, their flesh already has strength and will not consume spirit stones, this is something only demonic cultivators do, and I am an upright monk who must never do this."

"Yes, Tuer knows." Xiaochun kowtowed, and Ji Qingfeng told her some other things before letting her back out.Xiaochun went back to her room to watch the puppet art for a while, and then wanted to find something to try when her hands were itchy. She went out of the room to find Tianbao who was practicing kung fu with the scarecrow.

The surrounding branches were all bare. Xiaochun saw a flash of light in that open space. Ji Tianbao's swordsmanship was surprisingly good. Many puppets turned into scarecrows surrounded him to attack, but they still couldn't get close to him. That's not even 1.5 Mi's child swung his green sword, which was three inches long, and caused great confusion in the surrounding aura.Ji Tianbaofei stood on a small branch, holding a long sword, and said very dissatisfied: "Mighty General, please hurry up, I have to go to play after I finish my sword skills!"

"Xiaobao, who is the mighty general?" Xiaochun walked into the open space, Ji Tianbao immediately stopped the puppet technique and jumped off the branch.Xiaochun saw the puppets around them turn back into scarecrows in a flash of inspiration.He put away his sword, pointed to a scarecrow with pigtails not far from him, and said, "That's it. I chopped it down not long ago and haven't repaired it yet."

Xiaochun looked at the mighty general in a flowery skirt and pigtails, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he turned to ask Ji Tianbao: "By the way, I want to ask if you have any materials for making puppets. I'm learning how to make puppets."

Ji Tianbao lowered his shoulders in frustration: "I thought you came to play with me...the straw used last time is gone. If you want it, we can go to the old farmer outside Xingxian Gate to buy some."

Xiaochun said: "Who asked you about the straw, I was asking if you have any middle-grade spirit stones."

"Oh, there are indeed." Ji Tianbao took out his storage bag, took three of them and put them in Xiaochun's hands, Xiaochun said, "Thank you, I will return the spirit stones to you when I have them in the future."

"No need, which one of us is with whom?" Ji Tianbao followed her into the woods, saw her chopping down two fir trees with a dagger, and asked her, "Xiaochun, do you want to make a wooden doll?"

Xiaochun said: "It's just for fun, it's better to be more delicate, you wait for me to be a little girl of your age." She cut off the redundant branches of the tree, and cut off the upper half of the trunk, leaving only three feet long the main wood, and then she swung the dagger and began to carve the wood.Ji Tianbao didn't bother to practice kung fu anymore, he spent three days fishing and two days drying nets.Xiaochun saw him these days, he practiced swordsmanship for a while every morning, spent the rest of the time playing, and then meditated for a while at night, he didn't even bother to go to the Martial Arts Hall.Mostly, he plays with his sables, makes scarecrows, puts pigtails on them and dresses them up.

Ji Qingfeng will only teach them the cultivation methods he thinks are right. As for how they learn and whether they are lazy, he doesn't care.As long as they don't cause trouble, he won't scold them easily.

Xiaochun used to learn kitchen knives well, and now that set of knives is still in her storage bag.Xiaochun was carving a wooden figure, and suddenly thought of the senior brothers and sisters in the dining hall. She would go back to see them when she had time, but she didn't know if anyone died after the catastrophe of the Ten Thousand Devils Black Mountain. The senior brother Zhao who was with her at the beginning died. Among them.

When Xiaochun finished carving, he saw a three-foot-tall wooden man standing on the ground, wearing a short robe, with a round face and big eyes, he was just like "Ji Tianbao".Ji Tianbao touched it, and said curiously: "It's so pretty, but why does it look familiar?"

Xiaochun continued to make puppets. She drove middle-grade spirit stones into the puppet's heart. With a flash of inspiration in her hand, she used a spell to refine the internal structure of the puppet. It needs to support various movements. The inside of the puppet is also very complicated. Fortunately, this puppet is only Refining to play is easier than ordinary puppets.A faint light appeared on the pine puppet, and it disappeared into the interior again.

After the refinement was completed, Xiaochun finally shot a ray of spiritual light into the puppet, and said with a smile, "Okay." The puppet turned into a fat, white, three-foot-tall 'Ji Tianbao', with its mouth flattened, as if Crying is not crying, his expression is a little stiff.

Ji Tianbao was frightened: "Xiaochun, this...isn't this me?" He took the puppet's hand again, touched the puppet's face, and laughed, "That's right, why didn't I expect to be able to practice Control myself, Master, and Uncle Dumb. If Master punishes me again, I will beat his puppet to vent my anger!"

Xiaochun carefully looked at the puppet he made and said, "It's just... this puppet is still too stiff, and it's alive without you. Xiaobao, can you make his expression more natural?"

Ji Tianbao said: "How do I know, the master gave me the jade slips and let me refine them myself. Look at those scarecrows of mine, how ugly they are refined."

Xiaochun asked suspiciously, "Haven't you ever asked Master for advice?"

Ji Tianbao curled his lips and said, "I'm not going to ask him, it doesn't matter if he looks ugly."

Xiaochun put away the wooden puppet he made, held Xiaobao while walking and said, "Then let's go to the master and ask him how to make the puppet's expression more vivid."

"Hey, let me go, I don't want to go." Ji Tianbao grabbed Xiaochun's hand, Xiaochun pulled him to the front, and patted his head with a smile, "Be good, be obedient."

Ji Tianbao muttered and walked behind her, rubbing the wrist that Ji Xiaochun had pinched, she was quite strong.Seeing her walking towards Master's cave, he said behind her: "Master is not in the cave, follow me."

Ji Tianbao led her through the woods, reached the other side of the mountain wall, and climbed the stone ladder. Ji Tianbao told her softly: "Master likes to come here when it snows, and it takes a long time to sit here. There are everywhere in winter. It's bare, so there's nothing to see." The two climbed to the top of the mountain, and Xiaochun saw that Ji Qingfeng was indeed sitting on the boulder on the top of the mountain. There were many black bamboos planted here, and the bamboo leaves were green in winter, but there was a lot of snow. The surrounding area was also pure white, with the light blue figure facing away from them.

The mountains and rivers are lonely, the rolling hills in the distance are pale in color, the sky is soft, and the open wind is blowing.Xiaochun saw Master's blue Taoist robe being slightly blown by the wind, she took Ji Tianbao to walk behind him, and called softly: "Master, we have questions to ask."

When Ji Qingfeng turned around, it only made people feel that the desertedness on his body had dissipated a bit. "What's the problem?"

Xiaochun handed him the puppet he made, and said, "The puppet made by my apprentice has a dull expression and stiff limbs. I want to ask Master to see how to improve it."

Ji Qingfeng played with the puppet she made in his hand for a while, and said, "It's just that the method is definitely not right. If you look carefully at the master's method, you should make fine adjustments to the method according to the different types of puppets you refine. "He grabbed some snow at random, kneaded the snow into a doll prototype, put it into a middle-grade spirit stone and entered it into the spell. Xiaochun and Ji Tianbao watched carefully.

But after a while, the puppet was refined, and Ji Qingfeng entered the spiritual light to activate the puppet. The foot-long snowman turned into a fat doll, crying and crawling on the ground. Xiaochun looked at the doll in amazement. The snow was too cold, and he crawled towards Xiaochun, hugging her leg, babbling, and teary-eyed, as if he was saying something.

This puppet can talk!Xiaochun picked it up, and the baby stopped crying immediately, and smiled instead of tears, playing with Xiaochun's hair, the tears on its pink face were still wet, it was really vivid.

Ji Tianbao felt a little itchy when he saw it, he pulled Xiaochun's clothes and said, "Xiaochun, let me hug you too, it's so cute."

Xiaochun put the doll into Ji Tianbao's arms, and asked Ji Qingfeng: "Master, why do the dolls you refined can still talk? They don't have consciousness, how can they be able to speak?"

Ji Qingfeng said lightly: "This doll can't speak, but it can make sounds. You should study the puppet art carefully. This puppet art was obtained when I was traveling abroad in the early years as a teacher. There are not many people who know it. If you It must be a great help to be able to refine puppets with advanced cultivation bases."

Xiaochun nodded to show that she understood. After carefully consulting Ji Qingfeng's method, she and Ji Tianbao walked down the mountain holding the doll.

After a while, Ji Tianbao came to her with the doll in his arms, and said anxiously: "Xiaochun, the doll is getting smaller, look, it's sweating non-stop! Help it!"

The doll is indeed much smaller than before, and it keeps getting smaller, but the doll is still babbling and laughing, opening its small hands for Xiaochun to hold it.Xiaochun shook his head and said: "It was originally made of snow, and it will melt naturally. Don't be sad, Xiaobao, I will make another one for you later." Ultimately unreal.

Ji Tianbao let out a sigh of frustration, and sat down beside him holding the snow doll, watching Xiaochun continue to practice making puppets, but after a while, the snow doll completely melted away, leaving only one middle-grade spirit stone in his arms, which was consumed by the snow doll. There is not much energy, and the spirit power of the middle-grade spirit stone is still sufficient.
