Cheng Tianle had never seen or heard of the scroll, but he was not completely unfamiliar with this method of casting spells, because he had seen the unparalleled Shenxiao Tianle Thunder Talisman in the light and shadow recorded by the Mirage Light Pearl. Zezhen unzipped the talisman seal and cast the Shenxiao Tianle Thunder, the power of the Shenxiao Tianle Thunder was equivalent to the full blown attack of the Shenxiao Tianle Sword when the real person guarded the Zhengzheng period.
Shouzheng Zhenren made seven Shenxiao Tianle Thunder Talismans in his life, which is a memorial for the seven disciples. Although Zhengyi Sanshan has this inheritance, disciples rarely fight with people with the Shenxiao Tianle Thunder Talisman. On the one hand, it is because this talisman is too difficult to make. Not only does it require practicing the Shenxiao Tianle Thunder Talisman for many years and having superb ability, but also during the refining process, the Shenxiao Tianle Thunder magic spells need to be continuously condensed into the talisman in a special way. If you are not careful, all your previous efforts will be wasted. The out-of-control Shenxiao Tianle Thunder may hurt the maker himself.
With the ability of a real person in Shuzheng, if you need to use such a magic, you only need to take a full blow; but if you want to make a talisman and hand it over to your disciples, it will cost many times the effort. The Shenxiao Tianlei Talisman made by Shuzheng is already the best in the world, and it is almost equivalent to a one-time use artifact. Even with his ability, it will take at least half a year to make one, because Shuzheng cannot do anything else, and only concentrate on making talismans. This kind of thing cannot be bought, and it is impossible to deliberately seek it. It is entirely based on fate.
When a disciple travels around the world, he does not rely on the Shenxiao Tianlei Talisman, but also on the other hand, for a more important reason. After all, this Shenxiao Tianlei Talisman is an outsider, neither a cultivation skill nor a magic he casts himself. It is okay as a symbol or a means in an emergency, but as a reliance, he loses the original intention of cultivation. After all, the powerful Shenxiao Tianlei Sword requires oneself to cultivate to control and perform as he wishes. Otherwise, it is not enough to have so many talismans, and it is impossible to have so many Shenxiao Tianlei Talismans.
The principle of making scrolls is similar to that of talismans. It also seals a certain kind of spell, and uses magic power to unlock and control the spell. As long as the user can unpack the seal and control the scroll, he can display powerful magical powers that he does not have. The scroll is a disposable consumable like the talisman, and it will be gone after using it.
Cheng Tianle has also seen experts who are proficient in the ways of talismans, such as Mr. Zhang Ledao from the Zhang family in Wucheng. In Zhang Ledao's hands, talismans are just means to understand and transform the spiritual breath of heaven and earth. When practicing the way of talismans to a profound realm, there is actually no need to use talismans. Zhang Ledao once drew talismans on the spot outside the finishing touch of the dragon mountain, drawing talismans and arrays to make the portal of the finishing touch of the small building. This is what Cheng Tianle saw with his own eyes. It is also the fundamental difference between the way of talismans and the scroll technique.
The way to cultivate talismans can make talismans similar to the function of scrolls, but they do not pursue a certain talisman itself; the purpose of making scrolls is different, it is to purely pursue this means and effect. On the basis of various types of "divine arts", various types of scrolls have appeared. There is a type of monk who is specifically called "scrollers". Only when they can cast spells themselves can they make corresponding scrolls, so this is not simple.
It is quite difficult to make a high-level magic scroll, and the scroll master himself needs to have this kind of cultivation magic power. It is rare and rare to imagine. The flying scroll mentioned by Bai Shaoliu is a more common advanced scroll. Based on Cheng Tianle's familiar theory of cultivation realm, as long as it is equivalent to breaking through the demon realm and being able to condense the demon pill, you can fly with this scroll.
After listening to Qiao Caifeng's introduction to the scroll, Cheng Tianle exclaimed: "This is too exaggerated! Let's just find a little demon outside and give him a flying scroll. Can he fly from Nanjing to Beijing?"
Bai Shaoliu glared and said, "You are exaggerating. Flying from Nanjing to Beijing! How effective is a flying scroll? First, it depends on how powerful the magical powers and magic powers the scroll makers themselves are; secondly, it depends on whether the user controls are exquisite and how high the cultivation is. Under normal circumstances, it is good to be able to fly from Nanjing to Suzhou. After all, it is not to use his own magic power. Moreover, the flying scroll is an advanced scroll. Do you know how precious it is? Almost impossible to buy, it is usually exchanged with rare things that help you practice. The scroller is not a cabbage, and the scroll is not a big road product."
Cheng Tianle blinked and said, "Does it cost to go from Nanjing to Suzhou? I think it's better to take the high-speed rail, and it's done with RMB 100."
Qiao Caifeng laughed and said, "Life is as real as Cheng Zheng!... But, scrolls are usually only used in specific situations, such as during the battle and tracking, a person who could not fly suddenly flew away. He could fly so far from Nanjing to Suzhou. If you didn't catch up at that time, where would you find him?
Besides, you can't carry a high-speed rail station and airport with you, but you can carry a flight scroll with you. Mr. Bai mentioned this just to remind you that if you encounter some monks of unknown origin, you must be careful that the other party may suddenly use magical means that they did not have."
Cheng Tianle nodded and said, "I understand, thank you two! Are you trying to remind me that when dealing with some strange demon cultivators, be careful of their use of scrolls?"
Qiao Caifeng smiled again: "Brother, you still don't understand! How can the high-end products such as scrolls be used, such as monsters that live in the mountains or hide in the world? Even if there are a very small number of monsters with great powers who can make scrolls, they are still their own magical magical spells. There is no need to spend so much money to make them.
People who carry various scrolls with them may not be monsters in most cases, but people with identities or backgrounds and belong to powerful forces in a certain sect. Most of their scrolls are not made by themselves, either exchanged for income at a large cost or provided by the organizational forces they belong to. Some huge cultivation organizations will specially train scrollers."
Xiao Shao also nodded and said, "So that's the case, we will be careful."
Bai Shaoliu reminded again: "You don't have to worry too much. With your cultivation level, even if you encounter someone who uses high-level scrolls, you should be able to deal with it. You just need to understand these methods in advance. If a special opponent suddenly casts magical magic that does not belong to you, you will not be caught off guard."
They had a lot of chatting that night, and it was already dawn. The residents far away outside the house had already finished their breakfast, and those who should go to work and those who should open the door to do business. In the Wanbian Sect Taoist temple in a residential area, the monsters were also quietly busy. Under the leadership and command of the masters of Wanbian Sect, they began to build various spiritual hubs again. According to the plan of Wanbian Sect, it may take more than ten years to complete the scale and internal structure of the sect Taoist temple. This is a long accumulation effort, and it is impossible to be impatient at all.
Some of the sects and temples of various sects have been in operation for thousands of years. When they were first mowed, most of them took a hundred years of hard work. When Wanbian Sect was first established, everything had to be started from scratch. This sect temple was built in ancient alleys under the name of the "Suzhou Garden Scenery Research Association". The process of mowing must be very clever and hidden, and cannot alarm the outside world.
The busy morning inside and outside the dojo has arrived, and the ancient house back garden has become the quietest place within a few miles. Qiao Caifeng and Bai Shaoliu are finally going to say goodbye. Bai Shaoliu just stood up and said softly, "I'm here, I've walked into the ancient alley outside."
The Wanbian Sect’s dojo is in a crowded city. The alley passed through the dojo building complex is not closed. Nearby residents still walk around every day. Some people walk into the alley and it is not worth making a fuss about it, but why did Bai Shaoliu react like this? Qiao Caifeng also frowned slightly and said, “Well, someone is here. He has already walked in!”
Cheng Tianle and Xiao Shao were both puzzled. Who was the sacred place they were talking about? Although the sect temple has not been completely completed, the outer magic array has been built long ago. If something special happened, I should have been alert!
Although Cheng Tianle was in the pavilion in the backyard, the exterior of the soul could clearly sense the situation within a few miles. He then cast a spell to check, and "see" two acquaintances in surprise. These two were as different as the residents who came and went to the ancient alley every day. If Cheng Tianle had not known them for a long time, he would not have paid special attention. It was Li Wan, who sent the scroll to the TV station to "appraise treasures", and Wang Sishui, the owner of the calligraphy and painting shop who sold it to Cheng Tianle.
Such two people should not be so surprised by Bai Shaoliu and Qiao Caifeng? Cheng Tianle introduced the identities of the two who had just walked into the ancient alley with his divine sense. He asked in confusion: "I know them, so I am a friend, but why are you two masters so surprised?"
Bai Shaoliu asked back: "Two people? They are clearly three people! Didn't you see it?"
Cheng Tianle shook his head and said, "I really didn't see it. They have passed through the outermost sensing array of the sect. No matter what kind of hidden magic is used, they should be discovered. I didn't see who is still hiding? It's really two people!"
Bai Shaoliu smiled: "Chen always checks in the outdoor scene of the soul, of course he didn't find it. Don't use any magical means, just go out and see it with your own eyes!"
Xiao Shao said inexplicably: "I only see two people in my soul. Is there such exquisite hidden magic in the world? There is no flaw in the disturbance of the magic circle. This is impossible!"
Bai Shaoliu: "They don't use magic at all, nor do they hide their bodies. Unless they are blind, anyone can see them! But you are in the backyard, you have to see him when you go out. We won't go out. This is probably not a coincidence. He should have come to find Mr. Cheng."
Confused Cheng Tianle and Xiao Shao left the backyard, walked through the ancient house and went out to the stone alley. When they looked east, they were surprised to find that there were really three people coming, and they all knew Li Wan, Wang Sishui, and Feng Junzi.
Feng Junzi said to his two friends while walking: "The ancient city of Suzhou is full of scenery. There is such a scenery in this inconspicuous alley. I see that the flowers, plants, trees and courtyards are different. In fact, things from various places and eras are so cleverly built together. This is not a simple piece together, just like having a complete life."
Li Wan explained: "This is Suzhou Garden Landscape Research Association. They built this exhibition venue and collected a lot of things to concentrate all the characteristics of Suzhou, but they have never been opened to the public."
Wang Sishui: "No wonder I didn't find the ticket office! Does Mr. Feng want to go in both sides to take a look?"
Cheng Tianle saw these three people walking through the ancient alley and closed his eyes involuntarily. With his cultivation, the inner and outer scenes of the soul had already blended without any obstacles. As long as the soul was within the range of perception, there was no barrier to ordinary sight when seeing the soul, even the situation behind the surrounding buildings was as clear as possible.
Of course, Li Wan and Wang Sishui "see" clearly, but in this way, they can't see Feng Junzi. When Cheng Tianle opened his eyes and looked like an ordinary person, Feng Junzi was no different from the ordinary people who walked through the ancient alley every day, so he walked over with a smile. Cheng Tianle turned his head and looked at Xiao Shao. The two of them had a secret communication with each other's spiritual thoughts. Cheng Tianle asked Xiao Shao, "Did you see it?"
Xiao Shao replied, "I saw it when I came out and stood here. It turned out to be Mr. Feng, no wonder Mr. Bai and Brother Qiao were surprised."
Cheng Tianle: "I just saw him with the eyes of mortals. You are a spirit body, so how do you see it?"
Xiao Shao replied: "No magical powers are used, just like looking at ordinary people, it seems to have nothing to do with whether I am a spiritual body."
Just when they were puzzled, Li Wan had already seen Cheng Tianle and greeted him from afar: "Cheng Cheng--!"
Cheng Tianle walked forward and said, "Mr. Li, it's you! Why did you have time to come here? Isn't this Boss Wang and Mr. Feng?"
Li Wan: "So you know Mr. Feng too? We just finished breakfast and walked around casually. Mr. Feng thought this old alley was very interesting and wanted to come in and take a look. He saw that he met Mr. Cheng. It was such a coincidence!"
Feng Junzi came over and said, "Isn't this Xiaocheng? Oh, it should be called Cheng Zong... We know each other, we have met and dealt with each other."
Li Wan also introduced: "Mr. Cheng is the chairman of the Suzhou Garden Landscape Research Association, and this is his territory."
Wang Sishui: "That's great! Cheng Zheng, can you walk through the back door? Let's visit?"
Cheng Tianle quickly said, "Of course there is no problem. They are all old friends, and welcoming!" Then he turned around and said, "Let me introduce you to you. This is my fiancée Wen Xiaoshao. She was away from home and just came here."
Xiao Shao also came forward to greet the three of them. Feng Junzi smiled and said, "Xiao Shao. You are not like an outsider. This temperament is completely the charm of Gusu... All the way to heaven. You are so blessed!"
Xiao Shao nodded slightly and said, "Thank you Mr. Feng!"
Feng Junzi asked with a smile: "What are you thanking me for the first time today?"
Xiao Shao: "Thank you Mr. Feng for your praise."
Cheng Tianle said on the side: "Let's stop standing here and talking. Don't you three want to see? I'll take you to visit."
Feng Junzi: "Please accompany Mr. Cheng himself, why are you so embarrassed?...I see that the people here are very busy, so we don't bother you. Do whatever you should do. Let's just visit."
Xiao Shao smiled and said, "You guys and Lele are old friends, so you don't have to be so polite."
While talking, Cheng Tianle and Xiaoshao led Li Wan and three others to visit the complex. They only found out why they came here today during chatting. Feng Junzi came to Suzhou to have fun this time and suddenly wanted to try the traditional snacks of Suzhou shrimp and poached eggs, but few restaurants are now making. Li Wan asked Wang Sishui for inquiries, and Wang Sishui led them here to have breakfast, which was the old-fashioned small restaurant at the entrance of the alley.
After breakfast, Feng Junzi felt that this ancient alley was very distinctive. A few people came in and walked around, but happened to meet Cheng Tianle. Then, accompanied by the chairman, he visited various exhibition venues of the Suzhou Scenic Garden Research Association.
When it comes to familiarity and understanding of various scenery in Suzhou, no one in the world can compare to Xiao Shao. Xiao Shao explained the traditions, characteristics, meanings, and various allusions and legends of various landscapes. The three guests were very interested in listening. The elders of the Wanbian Sect had already greeted him secretly, and all the demon cultivators in the sect temple knew who was coming.
Although Feng Junzi didn't disturb everyone's work, he just looked at it, but wherever the few people passed, all the demon cultivators were curiously watching and were extremely careful to restrain their spirits. Cheng Tianle not only took the three of them to visit the exhibition hall, but also walked around the inside and out, and finally entered the ancient house and went all the way to the back garden. They climbed the rockery pavilion to rest, and Xiaoshao personally made tea and served guests. Bai Shaoliu and Qiao Caifeng were also in the back garden just now, but they didn't know where to hide.
Originally, they were just passing by, but they met the warm reception from the chairman Mr. Cheng Tianle, which made Li Wan and the other three feel embarrassed. They thanked each of them repeatedly. Cheng Tianle also gave each of them an exquisite commemorative album, which was specially produced by the Suzhou Garden Landscape Research Association to introduce various garden landscapes. He and Xiao Shao sent the three of them to the gate of the ancient house.
Before leaving, Feng Junzi stuffed the album into the bag that Wang Sishui carried, and then pulled out a book from it, handed it to Cheng Tianle with a smile and said, "Zheng Cheng, Xiao Shao, I am so grateful to you today. I didn't prepare any other gifts, so I'll give Cheng Cheng a book."
Cheng Tianle took it and saw it, it was an ordinary book of the Book of Songs. It was published in the late 1980s and has been a long time ago, but it has been well preserved. The back cover is covered with a sales stamp from the Xinhua Bookstore in Wucheng.
Cheng Tianle thanked him and flipped it around casually, suddenly said in shock: "Mr. Feng, what is the one in this book?"
Feng Junzi replied with a smile: "Oh, are you talking about that bookmark? This book was bought at Xinhua Bookstore downstairs in my house when I was in middle school. Later, a teacher named Tang Qing in our school borrowed it and returned it only when I graduated. Teacher Tang picked up a bookmark in it and gave it to Mr. Cheng today."
After Feng Junzi finished speaking, he waved his hand and walked through the ancient alley with Li Wan and Wang Sishui. Cheng Tianle stood there holding the book that was opened in both hands, and had not spoken for a long time.
Cheng Tianle had never seen such a "bookmark". It looked like a piece of paper the size of a palm, but the texture was a special treasure of heaven and earth, with very complex patterns on it. If you want to see it clearly, you will inexplicably feel that the soul is in a daze. Although Cheng Tianle had never seen this thing, he had sensed the familiar thunder sound that was faintly heard from the soul of the sealing magic power and the familiar sound of thunder that came from the soul of the soul. This was the Shenxiao Heavenly Thunder Talisman! (To be continued...)
