"Here is a blade." Xiao Hui dug out a black blade from behind a stone and said, "You use it every day to carve words on the stone. The font should be based on the ancient seal script. The ancient seal script is most particular about abbreviations, hooks, and horizontal strokes.
Wait for the strokes. You will often use these strokes when carving talismans in the future, so practice them in advance."
Tang Lin bent down to pick up this ordinary piece of iron and asked in surprise: "Using it to carve words on stones can exercise your finger strength?"
"Yeah." Xiao Hui said without any doubt: "Let's start now. You must carve ten complete characters today before you are allowed to rest. From now on, there will be two more words every day!"
"Ten!" Tang Lin was stunned. If he just used a brush to write, ten thousand words would be fine. But using this small piece of iron in his hand to carve words on a hard stone, not to mention ten, he could carve even one word.
is the problem.
"Do you find it difficult?" Xiao Hui looked at him indifferently.
Tang Lin nodded, then grinned, "Although it is difficult, I will work hard. My father said that where there is a will, there is a way!"
"Then let's get started." Xiao Hui said with satisfaction.
Tang Lin picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground next to him, placed it on his lap, held the blade tightly in his left hand, and carved hard on the stone.
Chacha~~
The sharp blade carved a faint white mark on the stone. Tang Lin increased the strength in his hand and soon carved a shallow horizontal line.
Thin white stone powder fell on his body. Tang Lin didn't care. He was still concentrating on carving. A few minutes passed——
"It's carved!" Tang Lin exhaled softly and looked at the word "Tang" on the stone.
Xiao Hui came over to take a look and nodded: "The carving is good. Although the handwriting is a bit ugly, it is still complete. However, the carving is too shallow and needs to be deepened three times!"
"Too shallow?" Tang Lin looked down at the writing on the stone. Indeed, although it was a bit hard to carve just now, he didn't expend too much effort. How can the ten characters carved in this way exercise his fingers?
Three times is three times!
Tang Lin continued to invest.
Xiao Hui nodded secretly after seeing it. The number of strokes in each character was different. Although he did not specify which character he wanted to depict, he was still pleased to see that Tang Lin chose a character with complicated strokes.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines in this forest.
Tang Lin was bathed in the warm sunset, not disturbed by the passage of time at all. He was still carving the stone with concentration. At this moment, there were four more words on it.
Tang Lin! Tang Lin!
"My hands are so sore." Tang Lin felt that his wrists were so sore that he was about to lose consciousness. He kept lowering his head to write, and his neck was also sore. He shook his hands and stopped to rest.
"Don't be lazy, continue!" Xiao Hui said sternly.
Tang Lin smiled bitterly, looking at the warm sunset in the distance. Suddenly, his father's lonely cheek felt a pain in his heart. He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and painted hard again.
When night fell, Tang Lin went to the kitchen to finish his meal quickly and brought some leftovers for Xiao Hui to eat. Then he picked up the stone and continued carving.
One stroke after another!
There seemed to be a strong energy in Tang Lin's bones. He gritted his teeth and kept carving. The place where his fingers held the blade had already been rubbed into blisters. Soon the blisters were broken and water vapor leaked out.
Xiao Hui didn't expect that Tang Lin would work so hard. He originally thought that he would complain about hardship and tiredness, or even give up midway. He thought of a way to coax Tang Lin, but he didn't expect that Tang Lin had never said a word of hardship to him until now!
"Hard work is the most important step to become a strong person." Xiao Hui secretly said: "But talent is also indispensable. It's a pity that you are not a born genius with two tasks. Otherwise, you will definitely have great achievements in runes. But if you follow this
If you continue practicing like this, you can still hope to become an excellent demon-suppressing master in the future, at least your attainments in talismans will not be too bad."
It's late at night and the moonlight is cold.
Tang Lin took the stone back to the house and continued to carve it. It was not until early in the morning that he finished carving all ten characters.
"Huh!" Tang Lin let out a long breath, twisted his neck, and made a clicking sound, "I'm finally done carving it, my neck and hands are so sore."
Tang Lin has never suffered so much.
However, he could feel the progress today. Although the skin on his fingers was scratched and there was a dull pain, the strength of his wrist seemed to be much stronger.
The most important thing is...
"I've been exercising for so long and I didn't even faint." Tang Lin's eyes were shining. He used to often faint when exercising, but today he was fine.
"That's right." Xiao Hui looked at the stone full of writings and said, "Let's rest today and continue tomorrow. Tomorrow we will carve twelve characters."
"Take care of a dozen or so." Tang Lin didn't have the strength to go straight to the bed, "That's for tomorrow, let's go to bed first."
Xiao Huibo was dumbfounded. In the end he could only give a bitter smile and said nothing more. After all, Tang Lin was only twelve years old. He carved ten words today. He was really exhausted. Not only his fingers, but also his body and mind. He was carving the handwriting.
Sometimes, people will subconsciously concentrate their mental energy to a high degree, so even if the body is not tired, the brain will be tired.
"Go to sleep." Xiao Hui waved his paws, picked up the quilt and covered Tang Lin with it.
…
The next day, Tang Lin came to the academy. His fingers still had not recovered. There was a dull pain and he was shaking a little when he held the pen. This was because he had exhausted too much strength yesterday.
Thinking of the twelve words after returning home today, Tang Lin felt a little weak. Only then did he realize that the real difficulty was not the first day of exercise, but that in the next few days, his body could not adapt and would collapse.
, various thoughts of giving up and retreating.
The difficulty lies in overcoming these thoughts and persisting bravely.
Ten days later.
In the small woods next to Wolong Pond, Tang Lin's little hand held a blade and carved hard. After ten days of practice, the number of words he had carved now reached as high as twenty-eight!
After five or six days, he gradually adapted to the exhaustion of practicing finger strength every day. Although he still feels strenuous, he will not have thoughts of giving up or being lazy.
After so many days of exercise, Tang Lin could clearly feel the increase in his finger strength. When holding the pen, it seemed as if there was no weight. His calligraphy had greatly improved, and his handwriting was like flowing clouds and flowing water, freehand and freehand, without any delay.
There is motivation when you are effective.
Tang Lin is now very diligent in exercising every day.
"I didn't expect you to progress so quickly." Xiao Hui looked at Tang Lin carving out the twenty-eighth character. The handwriting was neat and elegant, without any distortion. He couldn't help but nodded, "Now, your finger strength is about the same as that of a young man.
Starting from tomorrow, when you exercise your finger strength, you must also exercise your arm strength!"
"Arm strength?" Tang Lin's eyes lit up.
"When your arm strength and finger strength reach five times that of an adult, you can start carving talismans." Xiao Hui glanced at the moonlight and said, "It's not early today. Let's rest first. Tomorrow's exercise will be much more difficult."
"Five times as much as an adult?" Tang Lin was full of expectations.
After these ten days of painful training, although he felt as if he had been in hell and almost cried from exhaustion several times, when he heard Xiao Hui say that his finger strength reached the level of a young man, he couldn't help but feel hot in his heart.
The strength of my fingers is actually comparable to that of an ordinary young man!
Exercise arm strength?
Really looking forward to it!
…
After returning from the academy the next day, Tang Lin knew how to exercise his arm strength. He followed Xiao Hui's instructions and found four small sandbags in the martial arts hall, each weighing about five kilograms. He tied the two sandbags together.
Lift your arm like a shoulder pole.
Ten pounds in each hand!
"You have to stand and carve words, ten per day, the same as before, two more per day!" Xiao Hui looked at the sandbags in Tang Lin's hands, "With these sandbags hanging on your hands, your mind is completely focused on carving, and your arm strength will
It grows invisibly, and the effect is better than doing push-ups."
"Indeed." Tang Lin thought about it carefully and felt so.
Although doing push-ups is a kind of exercise, if you concentrate on it, you will feel tired, and your arms will also be sore, so you need to rest frequently.
If you hang the sandbag directly on your arm and focus on other things, your body will automatically adapt to the weight.
Adaptation is human nature.
Moreover, this method does not require strenuous activities and is the only way to exercise people like him who are born with weak blood and blood.
Immediately, Tang Lin took Xiao Hui through the woods and saw a straight arch bridge. There was a rockery to the west of the bridge. In front of the rockery was a pool of about three feet in size. The water in the pool was clear, bottomless, and floating on top.
With a few lotus leaves.
This treasure land that was once famous as Longxiang City has now become an ordinary pool.
Tang Lin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
