Chapter 269 Enlightenment
It took a lot of effort for everyone to pull the two apart.
Fortunately, this is the Juxian Mansion. Even if there are many counterfeit goods, even these counterfeit goods can know a lot by listening to people's stories every day and learning from them, not to mention others.
Immediately, an old man took a sip of water, silently chanted a spell of the god he had worshipped and practiced for a long time, and sprayed it on one person's face. Then a Taoist priest put his fingers together and chanted a spell, and tapped the center of another person's eyebrows, using a common court spell. The two men slowly woke up.
Seeing the other person's appearance, the scars on his face, and the torn clothes, he was a little stunned.
When everyone asked them, they found out that—
It turned out that the two of them had spoken rudely to the real person and the fox fairy in his family behind his back, offending the real person, so the fox fairy cast a spell on them and punished them slightly.
These two people also have some skills.
One of them had seen ghosts from time to time since he was a child. When he grew up, he got drunk one day and made a bet with his table mates to spend the night at a mass grave. The stakes were only ten cents, but he actually went.
That night he really encountered several ghosts in the mass grave, but he was not harmed by them. Instead, he found that ghosts were not as scary as he had imagined, and gradually he dared to deal with them. After a few times, he not only learned how to see ghosts at any time and how not to be confused by the breath of ghosts, but also developed the ability to deal with ghosts.
The other person had a bond with a monster outside the city. Whenever he had problems, he could ask the monster for help. He could even learn breathing techniques from the monster and was not afraid of ordinary monsters and ghosts.
But these two people were only facing the fox from the real family, and they had no power to resist.
Now all the previous doubts about whether the young Taoist was a real person or a fake one, and whether the demon king by the Weishui River was eliminated by him, all disappeared, leaving only a lot of ridicule and jokes:
"I say you two are really stupid. We can't tell whether that real person is real or fake. How can Master Fan not tell it?"
"Didn't you see that Master Fan was quite polite to him? How could he live in the same house with Master Fan?"
"Let's not talk about Master Fan, just the protector beside the real person, based on the skills he showed today, I think he can kill demons and monsters with a sword."
"I can tell at a glance that the immortal is extraordinary. How many ordinary people can be so calm when walking beside Master Fan? Moreover, Master Kong Jing demonstrated Buddhism before, and other masters showed their skills. But I have been paying attention to the expression of the immortal. He is not surprised at all. I am afraid that he has seen through our foundation a long time ago."
"A true man is a god. You are disrespectful to a god. This is just a minor punishment. It is good that you are not sent to reincarnation. Just be thankful."
"Yeah yeah……"
But at this time, Master Fan and the Immortal had already disappeared.
Most of the extraordinary people in the academy have demonstrated their abilities today, so Lin Jue naturally has no reason to stay any longer.
As for the two people who were fighting, Lin Jue felt guilty and had to teach his fox a lesson. As for whether he had offended the Crown Prince, even Master Fan didn't care, so he didn't care even more.
Of course, Master Fan pretended not to care.
Lin Jue really didn't care.
The three men and the fox walked out of the government office of Juxian Mansion. Only the fox was reluctant to leave and kept looking back every few steps, eagerly looking forward, as if it wanted to look beyond the wall of Juxian Mansion and continue to watch the excitement inside.
The fox didn't understand why the Taoist didn't look.
"You might as well just jump up and see!" Lin Jue next to it said to it helplessly.
"?"
The fox was stunned and was awakened by him.
Just as he bent his legs and prepared to jump, he was stopped by Lin Jue's words:
"Are you really going to jump?"
"?"
The fox was stunned again and stopped moving, turned around and stared at him, unable to understand for a moment whether he should jump up and see by himself or not.
"Come on, you're not a three or four-year-old kid anymore, why are you still acting so recklessly?"
"..."
The fox stared at him blankly, still not understanding.
Then came a lecture.
But the fox listened to a few sentences carefully at first, but after that, he kept his head down and looked at the road as he walked, without even raising his head.
Lin Jue was also helpless when he saw this.
But I'm in a good mood today -
I was regretting not finding a spell that suited my taste, but I found it the next moment.
Not only does it suit my taste, but it also suits my taste very well.
The method of controlling objects with incantations was originally the magic that he most often used to fight against the enemies, but the method of controlling objects with incantations required chanting, which was a bit lacking. The method of controlling objects with incantations performed by this Taoist priest Tao did not seem to be the original one, but it did not require chanting incantations, but was controlled by the mind, which was like sending a pillow when one was sleepy.
And it is my favorite pillow.
Just this one gain makes it worthwhile not only to spend half a day in this compound today, but also to come to the capital city in general.
The three of them quickly walked back to their own houses and separated again by the lake.
Lin Jue, Luo Gong and Fu Yao returned to their own courtyard.
Because this place is next to the government office of Juxian Mansion, the first thing Fuyao did when she came back was to jump onto the courtyard wall, then walk onto the roof next to it, stand on the roof and stretch her neck to look down.
"Ugh……"
Lin Jue shook his head and said to Luo Gong: "This little thing is really getting more and more ideas of its own as it grows up."
“Isn’t it the same with humans?”
"That's true." Lin Jue smiled. He also knew this truth and was not worried about it. He just asked Luo Gong again, "Are these the only people in Juxian Mansion?"
"of course not."
Luo Monk still hung his hat on the crabapple tree and placed his long sword on the stone table:
"There are thousands of people in Juxian Mansion, but how many are here today? Let's not talk about those who have no ability. As for the extraordinary people and famous monks with real abilities, only a small number of them in the capital are here at most, and many people with real abilities are outside."
"Um……"
Lin Jue nodded, thinking of Master Yunchan. He hadn't seen him today. When he asked Master Fan, he said he was not in the capital. The people in the Juxianfu government office today either lived in the government compound, or came here specifically for the prince, or to curry favor with the prince, or to show their magic to get rewards.
There must be some people with real abilities who are unwilling to do such things, and there must be some people with real abilities who come to the Juxian Mansion not for fame and fortune.
"Does Luo Gong know much?"
"Not much. After all, I was only the county lieutenant of Changning County for two years. I didn't go to Juxian Mansion every day, and those people didn't come back to Beijing every year. Some of them didn't come back for several years, and I haven't seen them."
Luo Seng paused and said:
"But as far as I know, there are several people with good skills who are not in the capital. There are rumors that some of them have gone to the north, and some have gone to the southwest."
"I see."
Lin Jue chatted with him for a few words and then returned to his room.
The fox seemed to know what he was going to do. It turned into a white shadow and jumped back from the roof lightly, entering the room before he closed the door.
Lin Jue lit the night lamp and took out the ancient book.
The fox lay nearby, watching quietly.
In fact, it doesn't know what people are looking at, and it doesn't even know why it is guarding here. It has been like this since it was a child.
Since the Taoist priest was young, he would lie down next to the book when the priest read it. As time went by, it developed a habit and it knew that it had to lie down next to the book when the Taoist priest read it.
Lin Jue turned directly to the latest page.
"Wow..."
The blooming and spreading of leaves is a magic trick.
In ancient times, an immortal walked the world to demonstrate his magic. He used a seed to germinate and grow. In an instant, it grew into a vine and a tree, blossomed and bore fruit, and was shared with the world to eat. Because the story was widely spread, later generations often imitated it, using magic tricks to make dead trees blossom and bear fruit, or to make seeds sprout into vines. They often performed on the streets, hence the name "Flowering and Spreading Leaves".
Beginners can only cover their eyes. If they want the illusion to be real, they need to work hard and reach a high level. When they can perform this technique, they can touch and smell anything and make the fake look real.
"Flowers and leaves..."
In fact, Lin Jue had not come into contact with this magic at that time.
Even when the plum blossoms withered, the petals fell and were blown away by the wind, but none of them fell on him.
But he had also learned the method of sending illusions to dreams, which was to create scenery in dreams, and he had also been exposed to the method of illusion play, and had learned several other techniques. Although there were differences among them, most of the principles were the same.
At that time, he saw the yellow-robed monk performing a spell with his own eyes, and naturally saw the ingenuity in it, and also vaguely understood the principle behind the spell.
This, in turn, triggered a reaction from the ancient books.
But Lin Jue is not interested in it for the time being.
If I could achieve enlightenment in the future and live a long life, I could slowly study various magic skills.
Now the spells that I haven't learned and the things that I haven't done have piled up, so I'd better take it easy.
Lin Jue turned another page.
"Wow..."
Blood control, use blood to control things.
This technique, which is modified from the method of controlling objects and talismans, is simpler to practice than the method of controlling objects. Although it controls objects with the mind and is flexible and unpredictable, before performing the technique, one must use his essence and blood to draw talismans on the object. Not only is it detrimental to oneself, it also takes time and is afraid of heavy rain.
This method is good at fighting, but it has flaws. If there is no bodyguard, one will need to practice other advanced methods of protecting the body or hiding.
Practicing this method is also helpful for practicing the true art of controlling objects. If one has profound attainments and outstanding talent in this area, perhaps he or she can use this method to realize the true art of controlling objects.
"Blood Control..."
As expected, it is not the original object control technique.
Lin Jue knew at a glance that this spell was not only written by the same author as the "Curse", but it was also very likely that they were written at the same time.
For this purpose, he turned to the previous few pages and found the method of "curse control". After comparing them, he found that the introductions were indeed very similar.
Lin Jue frowned and thought.
Both of these spells are derived from the method of controlling objects, but have been simplified and each has its own characteristics.
It seems that spell control is prepared for serious practitioners, who only need to attach some magic power to control objects. Blood control seems to be prepared for strange people in the martial arts world. They often have not practiced orthodox spiritual methods, but only simple qi-cultivation methods, or only half of the qi-cultivation methods. Therefore, they need to consume essence and blood, and rely on the spiritual power in the essence and blood to control objects. Because the essence and blood are related to themselves, they can control objects with their thoughts.
Blood Control is controlled by mind and is more flexible. Its disadvantages are that it consumes blood and essence, and one must draw blood talismans first. It is also afraid of heavy rain.
The Curse Master is controlled by spells, which do not cause any harm to the master when cast, and his mana is not afraid of rain. However, the disadvantage is that the spells are difficult to practice, and the control is not so flexible and arbitrary.
Both have their own advantages and disadvantages and are almost complementary.
"If one has profound attainments in this art and is gifted, perhaps one can use this method to comprehend the true method of controlling objects..."
Lin Jue muttered to himself.
This is his plan!
If it was only the spell control, with his current attainments, it would be difficult for him to comprehend the true method of controlling objects by himself. But if these two skills were combined, and there was also this spell book, then he felt that it was almost just a matter of time.
The real art of controlling objects...
In Lin Jue's opinion, this spell is completely comparable to the real spell of turning beans into soldiers. It may not only have the advantages of curse control and blood control, but also have stronger power to control objects.
If I could figure out the true method of controlling objects, I would have another spell of the same level as Hua Kai Qin Mo.
In this way, today's harvest can be considered great.
So he studied hard, forgetting to eat and sleep.
Even in the middle of the night, I am unaware of it.
