Chapter 277: Teaching Art
After Ajiu moved away the wooden cabinet that closed the twin sisters, Aunt Mei immediately appeared beside Zhou Xuan. She showed a slightly concerned expression on her face and couldn't help but say to Zhou Xuan.
"Xiaoxuan, the two of them..."
She was quite concerned about the two sisters and felt a sense of mutual sympathy. Everyone was suffering, so naturally they didn't want to see them suffer.
Of course, Zhou Xuan understood what Aunt Mei meant and explained with a smile.
"Aunt Mei, don't worry. They won't have any trouble. You can save them tomorrow. But remember, you can't alarm that person. And you can't let him know that their sisters have run away."
He had no intention of abandoning the twin sisters, but he just gave them a moment of grievance to Ajiu's peace of mind.
"Okay, no problem."
Aunt Mei felt relieved after hearing this. If Zhou Xuan had really decided to give up the twin sisters, she wouldn't have much to say. She could only feel a little regretful, but now it's the best of both worlds.
Zhou Xuan sat on the sofa and thought for a while, then said to Aunt Mei who was cleaning.
"Aunt Mei, there is still something else you need to do tomorrow."
Aunt Mei put down the mop in her hand and walked over to ask lightly.
"What's the matter?"
Zhou Xuan leaned over and said in a low voice.
"That's how it is..."
The next morning, Zhou Xuan went to Ayou's house after having breakfast from Aunt Mei.
Ayou did not sleep in, but got up early. He packed up everything he needed and prepared breakfast. When he saw Zhou Xuan coming, he pretended to have just prepared breakfast and said to Zhou Xuan.
"Here, sit there casually. I didn't have breakfast, sit down and eat together."
He really values Zhou Xuan, and now he treats Zhou Xuan as his own. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten up early in the morning. In the past, he would have to sleep until the sun shines his butt.
Zhou Xuan said with a smile and waved his hand.
"No, I've eaten it."
Ayou glanced at Zhou Xuan and said.
"After eating, eat something more, you can see how thin you are."
Zhou Xuan was very happy with Ayou's care, so he sat down and had some breakfast casually.
After the two of them finished eating, Ayou also began to formally explain to Zhou Xuan how to become a qualified Taoist priest.
His family is not a great exorcist, and there are no special rules. If there are new disciples like those who have famous and upright schools, they will report to the ancestors to the list. Their small family will save a lot of trouble.
Ayou put some things on the table and then said patiently to Zhou Xuan.
"We Taoist priests mainly rely on three methods to expel evil spirits and catch ghosts, including magic power, magic tools, and magic talismans."
Zhou Xuan was also very clear about these, but he didn't understand the most critical magic power. He looked at the many magic weapons and yellow talismans on the table, looked up at Ayou and asked.
"How can you have magic power?"
Ayou smoked and explained with a smile.
"This is simple and difficult. Our family relies on a practice formula passed down from generation to generation, and then practice day after day to cultivate mana. It took my grandfather's father three months to refine mana, my grandfather six months to refine mana, and my dad six months to refine mana."
Zhou Xuan asked Ayou with a little curiosity.
"How long has it been, Master?"
He was very interested in the set of mantras that could cultivate magic power, but he was not anxious at this moment. Anyway, Ah You would teach him sooner or later, so there was no need to forget him.
Ayou sniffed a sip of cigarette and said with a slight smugness.
"Ten days."
Zhou Xuan looked at Ayou in a little surprised and asked.
"Really?"
Ayou said glaring at Zhou Xuan.
"Of course it's true. What do I lie to you? Mana requires long-term practice to be born. Some people with poor mentality and talent may not even be able to practice mana in their entire lives. The longer the mana is practiced, the more they will be."
In fact, it took him a month to cultivate magic power, but he said so just to shock Zhou Xuan. So that Zhou Xuan would not think that he was talented and proud. He definitely didn't say so for the sake of face, absolutely nothing!
Ayou continued to say earnestly to Zhou Xuan.
"The altars, magic tools, magic talismans, etc., all require magic power to take effect. So magic power is very important. Don't be lazy in the future. Taoist priests without magic power are all fake Taoist priests. Only by truly having magic power can they be considered a qualified Taoist priest."
Zhou Xuan nodded and said.
"I understand, where is that magic weapon."
Ayou held a cigarette in his mouth, then pointed to the magic weapon on the table and said.
"The magic weapon is very simple. Eight trigram mirrors, peach wood swords, and ink dou are all magic weapons. As long as something that can drive away evil spirits, it can be called a magic weapon. You will gradually understand in the future. I will tell you about the magic talisman first."
"People have good people and evil people, and talismans also have good characters and evil characters. But the darker the color of the talisman paper, the greater the power the caster borrows. The borrowing method itself is an extremely evil ritual, leaving no room for others, and also not for yourself, so you need to be extra careful when drawing talismans."
"In the past, there were many types of magic talismans, such as thunder talismans, corpse-suppressing talismans, evil-removing talismans, amulets, ghost-killing talismans, etc. But when it was passed down to my generation, there were actually only two or three talismans left."
In fact, he didn't know if those talismans still had any effect, after all, there was no object to verify.
Zhou Xuan didn't care much about these things, but instead asked the most curious questions.
"Master, have there really been zombies before? Have you seen them?"
He suddenly thought of a passage, so he let it go and continued to say to Ayou.
"I have heard others say that people divide good people into bad people, and corpses divide zombies and corpses and corpses. The reason why people become bad people is because they are not good at it, and the reason why corpses turn into zombies is because they have a breath. Before a person dies, he gets angry, holds his breath, and becomes stuffy. After he dies, he gathers in his throat.
If this breath has not dissipated, after the cultivation of the Yin land, the dead person will undergo corpses, the body will become very stiff and will not rot. Until the light of day is seen again, he will truly become a zombie."
Ayou gave Zhou Xuan a blank look, took a breath of cigarette and said.
"This is what you said in filming."
It’s not that he hasn’t watched zombie movies, so he naturally knows this line.
Zhou [Bayi Chinese website www.x81zw.xyz] Xuan smiled embarrassedly, then nodded and admitted.
"Haha, yes."
He didn't expect that Ah You had watched a zombie movie, but according to this parallel world, this possibility does occur.
Ayou sighed silently and said with a sigh.
"Actually, that's not completely wrong. The words [Zombie] were all called out by our ancestors. The meaning of zombies was just: the limbs were stiff, the head was not low, the eyes were not tilted, the legs were not separated, and the corpse did not rot."
