How can there be such a strong superpower?

The conference room door was pushed open again.

Zhang Xiufeng suddenly appeared in front of them, but he didn't even look at the other three women. He immediately looked at Chen Lusi and asked anxiously, "Why did you come out? Come in quickly, let's do another experiment."

Say it.

He pulled Chen Lusi and was about to go in.

Chen Lu thought for a moment, motioned him to wait a moment, then took the cat from Lin Wan's arms, asked the two sisters to wait for him for a while, and then followed Zhang Xiufeng back into the meeting room.

Lin Ying watched Chen Lusi leave, and then thought about how to spend time with her sister later.

And just then.

Ji Xin suddenly took the initiative to ask, "Are you Lin Ying?"

"Ah."

Lin Ying looked at Ji Xin and nodded.

Ji Xin thought for a moment and was about to introduce herself: "I am..."

"I know you, Ji Xintiance."

But Lin Ying shook her head and interrupted her directly. Then she smiled at her gently, turned around and pressed her sister's head, glared at her with disappointment, and turned away.

Ji Xin was slightly startled, then looked at Lin Ying's back, slowly raised his hand, and gently bit his fingers.

Obviously.

This is not a role like Xia Panqiu.

……

the other side.

Chen Lusi returned to the meeting room.

Several Taoist priests seemed to have controlled their emotions.

Of course, the excitement on their faces still couldn't be concealed...

As soon as Chen Lusi came in, they all looked at him, just like before, except that their gazes were even more fiery.

Chen Lusi had just finished listening to Ji Xin's words and probably understood the feelings of the Taoist priests at the moment, so he didn't mind too much. Instead, he took the initiative to ask: "So now let me try other talismans?"

"Yes, we discussed it and found several representative ones. I hope you can try them."

Zhang Xiufeng replied on behalf of the other three people, then handed three talismans to Chen Lusi: "They are the immobilization talisman, the floating talisman, and... the protective talisman."

Chen Lusi placed the cat on the conference table, then took the talisman from Zhang Xiufeng's hand and nodded, saying, "I understand. I'll give it a try later. In the meantime, please take a look at the cat on the table to see if you can tell anything."

Hear this.

The three of them turned their heads to look at the white cat standing on the table.

Chen Qing couldn't help but ask, "Is this the scene?"

"Ah."

Chen Lusi responded and then looked at the talisman Zhang Xiufeng gave him.

As soon as he saw it for the first time, Chen Lusi was stunned.

The three talismans were covered with dense special symbols, which looked like seal script but were difficult to recognize.

...the level of complexity is astonishing.

Chen Lusi: "..."

"The one on top is a talisman for immobilization."

Zhang Xiufeng did not follow Chen Qing and others to see the cat, but stood next to Chen Lusi and explained to him.

He also knew that it would be impossible to understand talismans without someone to guide him.

Not to mention that Chen Lusi is a complete layman.

"...Is it that complicated?" Chen Lusi raised his head, feeling somewhat helpless.

"Complicated? This is very simple. The top is the talisman head, representing the Three Pure Ones. The middle is the imperial decree, drawn using the Zhengyi School's painting method. Following that are the talisman core and the talisman foot. All you need to do is..."

Zhang Xiufeng showed a surprised expression when he heard this, then pointed at the talisman and explained it to Chen Lusi carefully.

It seemed like he really wanted to teach him.

Obviously.

For them, although Chen Lusi's graffiti-like talismans were useful, deep down they still felt that the way they drew them was wrong.

After all, they are traditional Taoist members, or the highest level, some things are engraved in their bones...

Chen Lusi: "..."

Zhang Xiufeng talked about it all in one breath, then took him to the table and demonstrated how to paint himself.

The other three, perhaps because they had just made an agreement, did not interrupt. They also knew that teaching would take a certain amount of time, so they did not disturb the audience.

Instead, he looked at the cat on the table, which was said to be Jing.

The white cat wagged its tail and was not panicked by the gaze of the three Taoist priests. Instead, it lay down on the spot and took a nap.

"This is really Jing... No matter how you look at it, it looks like an ordinary cat."

Zhang Yunzhong's eyes turned azure blue as he looked at the napping cat, frowned slightly, and then reached out to touch it.

But as soon as he reached out his hand, he froze in place.

"what happened to you?"

Chen Qing felt a little strange, but as soon as he said that, his body suddenly stiffened.

Li Feng was the last one and his performance was about the same.

The main thing was that the cat, which had been harmless just a moment ago, suddenly turned into a hideous sight in front of them, wagging its tail and deliberately sneering at them. Being suddenly faced with such a scene... it was really hard to react.

But the illusory scene was fleeting.

The cat is still the same cat.

But Zhang Yunzhong didn't dare to touch it, but looked at Chen Lusi in shock.

The other two also turned their heads.

It's actually a scene...

But Chen Lusi just brought it in.

the other side.

Chen Lusi didn't notice the other people's gazes. After Zhang Xiufeng drew the immobilization talisman again, he couldn't help but say, "Master Zhang, I'm sorry, I really can't learn it."

Zhang Xiufeng: “…”

"My foundation is very poor, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come up with the idea of using a ballpoint pen dipped in cinnabar. If you ask me to learn traditional painting techniques now, I probably won't be able to learn how to draw a talisman in a day."

Chen Lusi hesitated for a moment, not caring about what he thought was a heinous crime. He explained and then repeated the nonsense he had said to the two sisters yesterday.

Simply put, modern times have modern practices.

What era is it?

Still painting traditional talismans.

Almost there.

After all, the talisman is just a "bridge". No matter how ugly the bridge is, as long as people can pass through it and as long as the message can be passed on, that's enough.

Zhang Xiufeng: “…”

The other three: "..."

You know what, what Chen Lusi said makes quite a bit of sense.

However, the three of them still found it hard to accept.

After all, this is far from the education they received since childhood.

So Zhang Xiufeng hesitated for a moment, and still advised: "What you said makes sense... But since the talisman has evolved into its current form, there must be a reason. I know that the shrinking talisman you just drew is effective, but it may be a low-probability event. I still hope that you can learn a little bit of the orthodox drawing method.

This will also help us figure out...why the talisman you drew was effective. Was it because of that scene, or because of...you?"

"..."

Chen Lusi was silent for a moment after hearing this, then he looked around at his Taoist priest and said, "Can you let me draw according to my own ideas first? If I can, then it proves that it is not a low-probability event. If not, then I will work hard to learn the talisman drawing methods taught by the Taoist priests.

Actually, I've been wondering... Taoist priests, have you overcomplicated the talismans? If I weren't an Enabler, I might not feel this deeply, but ever since I became one, I've always felt that time is truly precious during battle.

Often a lot of things can be decided in just one second, but your talismans now are really too complicated. Can they really work in actual combat?

I know that this thing can be drawn in advance, just like the parchment in the church system, but there is no guarantee that there will not be a need for on-site drawing. What's more... does it mean that there is no time cost if it is drawn in advance?

Since it is used in actual combat, the simpler the better... Of course, if you just want the talisman to look mysterious and want to give good men and women a convincing reason, then perhaps the more complicated the better.

After all, the other party is seeking psychological comfort, so drawing it like graffiti is definitely not acceptable. But do you really just want to make the talisman look mysterious?"

"..."

Zhang Xiufeng and the other three were stunned when they heard this, and then fell into silence.

They don't think the current talismans are difficult.

Because they are not young anymore, even the dumbest person can become a master if he is willing to put in the effort, not to mention that they are smart people.

From their point of view, there is indeed no problem with the current talismans.

But what Chen Lusi said just now made the four of them react suddenly.

The Taoist tradition has been lost for a long time.

Did they... or more precisely, did the dozens of generations before them deliberately complicate the talismans because the Taoist tradition was cut off and the talismans were useless?

I guess there is, because it has no effect. If the talisman can still be drawn with just a few strokes, how can we convince good men and women?

of course.

The most important thing is the practical issue that Chen Lusi mentioned.

The four were very excited.

I'm really excited.

So I didn’t think about more realistic issues at the first moment.

Just as Ji Xin said, they are still at the stage of "witnessing the birth of a newborn baby at home."

But if we consider actual combat... Chen Lusi's words are undoubtedly extremely reasonable. If there is no effect, they can draw however they want, but once there is an effect, there will be more things to consider.

Chen Lusi's graffiti-like painting style is undoubtedly more valuable! Extremely valuable!

After all... even the church system's enablers are simplifying the techniques!

"You try it."

Zhang Xiufeng was silent for a while, then finally spoke and made up his mind.

He is not one to cling to tradition.

not to mention.

What he wanted was never traditional.

"it is good."

Chen Lusi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that, then thought about it and this time did not take the A4 paper, but picked up a piece of talisman paper.

It's mainly meant to be a form of compensation.

After all, these people are the leaders of Taoism... It is really difficult for them to accept my sophistry.

I found Chen Lusi picked up the talisman paper.

Although he still used a ballpoint pen, he would just dip it in cinnabar and draw.

But Zhang Xiufeng and the other three were still stunned for a moment, then smiled gently and looked at Chen Lusi's profile.

They also knew that Chen Lusi had deliberately left the meeting room just now.

But soon.
