Chapter 30 Puppet Technique
"What if I'd better eat it." Zhang Jidong said.
"You know that if you eat, you will be gone in one meal. If we raise these loaches, we can give birth to many small loaches in the future. When the small loaches grow up, we can catch them and sell them, leaving some large loaches as seeds. We can buy meat frequently." Zhang Jiling said.
It is a good thing to eat meat frequently, and it is also very tempting for Zhang Jidong. For Zhang Jidong's young heart, eating meat every day is a very happy thing. Zhang Jidong is really not envious of other parents. At home, two more people beat people, and I don't know how many more they will be beaten.
Zhang Jidong and his sister dug for a long time, but they only dug out a pit the size of a water tank. Zhang Jidong was a little tired and felt that such a big pit could raise these loaches.
"Sister, why don't you get some water first and raise these loaches first?" Zhang Jidong suggested.
"Why are you so lazy? How many loaches can you raise with such a small puddle? You have to dig up all the pieces here." Zhang Jiling said.
When Zhang Jidong saw his sister's grand blueprint, he was stunned. Are you digging such a large pond and preparing to build a swimming pool?
"Do you still want to eat meat often?" Zhang Jiling asked.
"Think." Zhang Jidong nodded vigorously.
"Don't be afraid of hardship if you think about it." Zhang Jiling said.
When it was dark, Zhang Jidong had a few blood bubbles on his palm. He threw down his hoe and refused to move. He pitifully showed the blood bubbles on his palm to his sister.
"Sister, my hands are rotten." Zhang Jidong said pitifully.
"Look at mine, there are a few more than yours!" Zhang Jiling also had several blood blisters on her palm. She worked harder than Zhang Jidong, and there were several more blood blisters on her hands.
"Sister, why don't we dig this big? When there are too many loaches, we will expand." Zhang Jidong suggested.
Zhang Jiling shook his head: "Whatever you do, do it at once."
At night, Zhang Jidong ran to ask his master: "Is there any magic to help me dig a hole?"
Luo Chengxuan thought for a while and nodded: "It really is. It depends on whether you dare to learn."
"What spell?" Zhang Jidong asked.
"If we were in our Great Luo Mon, there were people who would do chores specifically for us. But now the situation is different. There is no Taoist boy to do these chores for you. However, in the past, some monks had no Taoist boys around them, so they would let the ghost slaves do the chores around them. It would be nice to raise a ghost slave, you don't have to worry about food or clothing, and you can work hard and complain." Luo Chengxuan said.
"I met you ghost. I raised a ghost and put it next to me. Then wouldn't I be scared to death?" Zhang Jidong immediately started yelling. When he heard this, there is no such unreliable master in the world, how can he specifically harm his disciples?
"I can do whatever you want or not. You ask me if I have any spells to dig a hole for you. There is no such spell, but this is the method." Luo Chengxuan said.
"Is there no better way?" Zhang Jidong asked.
"No, you can't learn it even if you have it." Luo Chengxuan said patiently.
"I don't believe it anymore. You should teach it. Let me see if I can learn it!" Zhang Jidong said dissatisfiedly.
"Puppet technique is impossible to achieve with your cultivation level." Luo Chengxuan really told Zhang Jidong the tricks and key points of the puppet technique. The puppet technique is complicated but not complicated. On the contrary, it may be simpler than raising ghost slaves. The easiest thing is to use yellow paper to make a small paper man. Being a small paper man is very particular, but it only takes some time to make it. The difficulty lies in drawing a puppet talisman and casting the puppet talisman on the small paper man, and the small paper man will become a puppet. The monk can use the mental method of controlling the puppet to control it, and do whatever you want the puppet to do.
How could Zhang Jidong understand? After listening for a long time, he couldn't even make a small paper man.
"How is it? Have you learned it?" Luo Chengxuan asked with a smile.
"Master, when you were an apprentice, how many times did you learn it before you learned it?" Zhang Jidong asked.
"I learned it at that time... I learned it once." Luo Chengxuan's old face turned red. He learned this as if he was scolded by his master and his grandson, so he doubted his life.
"Why do you say it again, Master, I might learn it if I say it again," said Zhang Jidong.
"Okay, I'll tell you one more time. If I can't learn, I won't care about you." Luo Chengxuan said.
Luo Chengxuan said it again, Zhang Jidong naturally did not learn it. He had never had an experience that he could learn it once.
Luo Chengxuan had known this result for a long time, but he didn't know if this strange apprentice could "sleep" at this moment.
Zhang Jidong learned twice and was scolded by his master countless times. He had no idea of continuing to bother his master. Forget it, I would rather go back to sleep. Anyway, I can't raise a ghost slave. How ugly it is to keep a ghost slave by my side!
"Brother, do you still have the disease cure talisman?" Zhang Jiling asked.
"What are you going to do?" Zhang Jidong asked in confusion.
"Doesn't your hands hurt?" Zhang Jiling asked.
"Why doesn't it hurt? My blood blisters are broken, and I feel very uncomfortable." Zhang Jidong turned his hand over to show his sister.
"Mine is broken, it hurts so much. Please give me a disease-removing talisman to see if it can cure the blisters." Zhang Jiling said.
Zhang Jidong's eyes lit up. This method was good, so he hurriedly drew a few talismans to cure diseases. Zhang Jidong's current skills in drawing talismans are very good, and the speed is very fast, and the talismans he draws are becoming more and more exquisite.
He used a disease-relieving talisman to himself and his sister, and most of the pain in the hands of both of them immediately disappeared.
"Sister, will we continue to dig tomorrow?" Zhang Jidong asked.
"Of course. We must dig out the pool as soon as possible, otherwise these loaches will not be able to be raised for too long." Zhang Jiling said worriedly. The little girl finally found a way to get rich, so she could not give up easily!
Zhang Jidong was really tired today. After taking a shower, he climbed onto the bed and fell asleep. The scene of learning the puppet talisman appeared in his dream again.
Luo Chengxuan didn't explain clearly to Zhang Jidong in the day that when he learned puppet art, he was actually in the foundation-building stage. With his cultivation in the switch stage, it was not easy to learn puppet art. The difficulty was that the puppet talisman was difficult to draw. First, the puppet talisman was very complicated, and ordinary monks could not understand the structure of the puppet talisman, let alone draw the puppet talisman. Second, the spiritual power required when the puppet talisman was formed was huge, and the spiritual power level of the switching stage cultivation was not supported at all. Therefore, Luo Chengxuan concluded that Zhang Jidong could not learn it.
