Chapter 359 Volume C Entering the Pit, the Battle Begins
After rebalancing his breath and feeling the smoothness of the spiritual power, Chen Huaisheng silently recited the divine rune, imprinted it in his heart, and urged the water and fire spiritual power to be injected into the ghost scissors.
The dim light flowed, and the ghost scissors cut along the Taiyin yellow talisman paper again.
The aura was round, and a pattern began to slowly form on the yellow talisman paper. Chen Huaisheng was fully focused, trying to recall the cutting techniques recorded in the book, trying to keep the cutting force balanced without any anger.
Seeing that the whole human-shaped pattern was about to be formed, but the yellow talisman paper trembled slightly, Chen Huaisheng was startled and tried his best to stabilize it, but the aura was affected by the fluctuations and swayed immediately. The ghost scissors tilted and were useless again!
Chen Huaisheng, who was very annoyed, knew that he had not practiced the art of combining water and fire to the extreme. This was extremely challenging for the harmony and parallelism of these two spiritual powers, and he still lacked some fire.
After calming down, Chen Huaisheng rested for a while, relaxed his mind, and took another Zuoyuan Pill before starting again.
…
The seventh one.
Chen Huaisheng’s forehead was covered with sweat, his eyes were like torches, and he stared at the ghost scissors in his hand.
His movements were extremely skillful and smooth, and the coordination of water and fire spirit power had reached the best state. The ghost scissors made no pauses or delays. As the head of the portrait was cut smoothly, the ghost scissors slid down the neck to the shoulders, and then to the waist,…
When he finally cut to the feet, Chen Huaisheng was shocked and felt that he was almost fainting. The ghost scissors in his right hand were heavy.
Finally, after the last cut, the paper man landed gracefully, floating in the candlelight, just like a real person.
Putting down the ghost scissors with trembling hands, Chen Huaisheng picked up the paper man from the ground, and felt the vigorous spiritual power on the paper man with his fingers. He knew it was done.
He had to waste six pieces of Taiyin Huanglu paper before he could successfully cut a finished product.
But Chen Huaisheng was sure that if he continued to cut the same puppet next time, he could double or even triple his success rate, that is, he could cut out a successful work with two or at most three pieces.
But if it was other pictures in the book, I'm afraid the success rate would be similar to that of this paper figure.
But no matter what, he finally succeeded in one, and this finished product was completely in line with his current situation, that is, no one could cut out a puppet paper figure that was more suitable for him.
Holding the paper figure with his fingers, Chen Huaisheng knew that the main process was completed, but there were still secondary processes.
Grind the ink, pick up the pen, draw on the paper figure, and finally add the finishing touch.
This is also a craft specially taught in the Ghost Scissors Secret Art.
However, Chen Huaisheng was obviously stronger in drawing and adding ink, and he finished it in one go.
This was due to the good qualities brought by his predecessor. In his previous life, he was a strong calligrapher. After the infusion of spiritual power, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone worked, and it was quite touching.
After the last stroke, the whole paper figure almost came alive, with a vivid appearance, even the eyebrows and eyes became clear and lively, as if it could fly and jump in the air.
This is a puppet protective paper figure. Chen Huaisheng gave it vitality and then attached it to his chest.
Once it encounters the most dangerous time, as long as the spiritual power is activated, it can turn into a clone and take on the blows and injuries that should have been borne by its own body.
But this does not mean that you can sit back and relax. Once the intensity of the blow exceeds the intensity, it will be instantly destroyed, and the blow that should have fallen on Chen Huaisheng's body will also penetrate into his body.
But in any case, such a puppet paper figure can give people great comfort. After all, it can suddenly burst out a Taoist body with the same spiritual power as its own to protect.
Seeing Chen Huaisheng coming out exhausted, Min Qingyu hurried over to him: "Brother Sheng, did it work?"
"It worked, but my success rate is too low, and I lost a lot." Chen Huaisheng helplessly supported his forehead, "Maybe the time is too tight, I am a little anxious to succeed, in fact, I should study it carefully for a few more days."
When Min Qingyu heard that it worked, she felt relieved and shook her head to express her disagreement: "Brother Sheng, as long as it works, it's fine, practice makes perfect, and you also said that we don't know when the war on Wei Huaidao's side will start, it's always good to have more protection. As for the Taiyin Yellow Scroll Paper, there will always be a chance to find it in the future, let's get through the difficulties first."
Min Qingyu was thinking about Chen Huaisheng with all her heart.
Chen Huaisheng attached great importance to the possible battle with Yuelu Sect, and even hatched the Winged Fire Snake as soon as possible. At the same time, he spent so much effort to learn and study this kind of strange art that she thought was more like a side door, just to have more protection.
This made her realize that this battle might be quite dangerous, and might even endanger Chen Huaisheng's life.
Going to Peach Blossom Island was so dangerous, but Chen Huaisheng was not so nervous. Once this battle broke out, people like them would not be qualified to go to the battlefield.
"That's all I can think of." Chen Huaisheng also understood this truth.
If it wasn't so urgent, he would actually prefer to slowly figure out this strange art. Taiyin Huanglu paper is not easy to make, and it's even harder to buy. If he wants to make it himself, the spiritual materials are also quite complicated.
But now, in order to have an extra life guarantee, he can only do this.
Three days later, the winged fire snake opened its eyes and began to devour various fire spirit herbs crazily, entering a period of rapid growth.
Looking at the winged fire snake that opened its mouth and ate greedily every day, Chen Huaisheng deeply realized that the eggs of this thing were not actually expensive, but why not many people were willing to feed it.
It was really too greedy.
I stored five or six types of fire spirit plants in my storage bag for several seasons, about five or six hundred kilograms, and this guy ate eight kilograms in one meal.
According to this posture, it should be easy to lose 20 to 30 pounds a day.
This really scared Chen Huaisheng.
According to this way of eating, the five or six hundred kilograms of fire spirit grass that I thought could feed it for at least three months would probably not be able to sustain it for even one month.
The problem is that these fire-type spiritual plants have a growth period. Even the smallest white sun grass takes at least two months to harvest. For example, edelweiss takes eighty days, and fire cloud vines ninety days. Chunyang Zizhi takes nearly five months, while Jin Yandou takes half a year.
This can only be achieved if there is enough red rock elemental magma to supply heat.
Without the Red Rock Essence Magma, these fire spirit grasses would not be able to be grown in Hebei.
In Da Zhao, even in a place with abundant spiritual power, the growth period has to be doubled.
In Nanchu and Wuyue, the growth date may be only 30% longer than when the red rock magma supplies heat.
Similarly, Yin Ling Cao is more suitable for growing in the north than in the south.
Chen Huaisheng realized that he had fallen into a trap.
He was also a little confused and puzzled.
He had inquired about the Winged Fire Snake egg before hatching it, and had also heard about it when he was a spiritual farmer at Qingmumen. The Winged Fire Snake was indeed unpopular because of its tricky appetite, so almost no one was willing to tame it.
But Diao Zhuan has long known that it is nothing more than not being able to stop eating or eating other spiritual food, otherwise the quality will be irreversibly degraded, but such a large amount of food is a little different from what he has heard before.
He had heard that the Winged Fire Snake did eat a lot during its youthful growth period, but one meal only required about two or three kilograms of spiritual grass (edelweiss), depending on the quality of the spiritual grass.
For example, about three kilograms of white sun grass, two kilograms of edelweiss, two kilograms of Lihuoyunteng, and about one kilogram of pure Yangzhi and Jinyan beans are enough.
If it is fire monster meat, the quality is average, such as the Tianyang rat among the ungraded monsters, which weighs five or six pounds, which means one can be treated for a day. The better ones, such as the red-eyed exquisite rabbit, can be treated at about three or four pounds in one meal. one day.
But now it seems that this is not the case at all. This guy's appetite has at least doubled. If this continues, he will not be able to feed him at all.
It's not just a matter of cost, the key is to have enough fire spirit grass and animal meat on hand at all times.
This land in Hebei is not as prosperous as Da Zhao in terms of trade. You have to rely entirely on planting or hunting by yourself. The risk is too great. If you don't catch up with Duan Dun, won't this precious precious thing that you have worked so hard to tame for so long be destroyed?
But now is the time to let it go? That's such a shame.
dilemma.
"Brother Sheng, are you feeling a bit overwhelmed?" Min Qingyu also felt a little surprised.
This baby fire-winged snake was indeed different from what she had heard about. It ate much more, but what she could feel was that the fire energy permeating its body was stronger.
"If we only rely on the fire-natured spiritual grass we planted, it will be a bit unsustainable." Chen Huaisheng calculated and nodded.
"Brother Sheng, would you consider catching some Tianyang rats or red-eyed exquisite rabbits to tame them?" Min Qingyu suggested: "It is actually not difficult to catch such unqualified monsters, but they are not produced here, but in There are a lot of them in Baima Mountain, Shizhu Mountain and Changfengbo area on the Tangshui Road. You need to capture some to tame them. You only need to feed some fire spirit grass appropriately, and usually support some other spiritual plants. They grow very fast and reproduce astonishingly..."
The reproduction rate of rats and rabbits is astonishing. The domesticated monsters of most sects are mainly pig-like rats and rabbits. Chen Huaisheng certainly knows this.
It's just that the Chonghua sect has never paid much attention to this industry. His Bailu Cave has just set up a shelf. He hasn't thought of starting to tame monsters for food, but he didn't expect that this winged fire snake would force him to advance in advance. Considered.
"Tang Shuidao?" Chen Huaisheng nodded: "We can only wait until the Lingyun Sect is over. Fortunately, I still have several hundred kilograms of spiritual grass in my hand. I can still carry it for twenty or thirty days. I'm afraid..."
Coming from Da Zhao, you have to pass through Tangshui Road. Baima Mountain, Shizhu Mountain and Changfengbo are all places where Tangshui Road is close to the river. If you can catch some and tame them, it can solve a big problem. Anyway, these Taoist species have been busy recently. For example, planting millet, jade and wheat is almost the same.
I'm afraid that things on Lingyun Sect's side will be dragged on like this, which will be really difficult to handle.
But the war obviously came faster than Chen Huaisheng imagined, and when it came it was an unusual explosion, without any feeling of breathing.
