The leisurely life of Lin Yuxi

Sure enough, Yuxi found a way in the ghost eye talisman based on his impression, the spirit art, which can turn the inner strength into mana after practice.

Dazhu tried it, and it was really successful. The transformed mana is extremely weak. Although it can't do anything, it is still possible to resist the evil force. At least the previous situation will not be easily overwhelmed by the force. arrive.After Da Zhu succeeded, he taught Er Fatty and Xiao Gang this spiritual art.Because Xiaogang doesn’t have much internal strength in his body, it doesn’t work. Erpang is stronger than Dazhu. His saber technique itself is as rigid as it is yang. It's perfect, the effect is excellent, Yuxi feels that if the second fat brother practices Taoism, he may get twice the result with half the effort, but it's a pity that he has no interest in that kind of practice, and it is better to practice a few more moves than to sit there and get lucky.

The next day, Dazhu and Erpang accompanied Yuxi to Daji.Thanks to the two of them accompanying them, otherwise Yuxi might return without success.Yuxi needs to buy a lot of things, other than the yellow paper on the set, it cannot be used. The quality is too poor. The yellow paper used to make talismans needs to be reprocessed by Yuxi. If the quality of the paper itself is too poor, it will be processed Simply unbearable.It was the second fat brother who found an old man on the set who showed people his bones and drew talismans by the way, and bought a batch of good-quality yellow paper.Yuxi saw that the old man didn't have any magic power, and the talisman he drew had no spiritual power, but the talisman itself was correct, it was the exorcism talisman used by Yuxi, the heart-purifying talisman, but unfortunately it lacked aura, this talisman was useless .

In addition, there are some materials that Brother Dazhu and Brother Erpang went to the city to get them. It was very troublesome and cost a lot of money.

If you want to make talismans, first make paper. Although this talisman paper is essentially the most primitive yellow paper, but the talisman paper needs to absorb the real energy and even absorb spiritual power by itself, which cannot be tolerated by ordinary talisman paper.

Yuxi first made a potion with more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials. When the potion was boiling hot, he soaked the bought yellow paper in it. The quality of the yellow paper was already soft and easy to break. Rotten, but the fact is not like that, the paper floats in the potion, and as the potion rolls, some impurities on the yellow paper can be seen falling off, and finally a yellow translucent paper is left. Take it out and spread it on a flat wooden board, and then sprinkle sulfur powder, tin powder, copper powder, gold powder, sycamore tree powder and more than [-] kinds of powders with different properties on the top, and these powders are evenly sprinkled on the paper. , absorbed by the remaining medicine on the paper, and then placed in the sun for an hour at noon.At this time, the paper is dry, take it off and shake off the excess powder that has not been absorbed by the paper, and a piece of yellow paper for making talismans is ready.

At this time, the yellow surface paper is light yellow with gold and silver light, delicate to the touch and has a certain toughness. The side that has not been exposed to the sun forms a special natural pattern, with yellow and red light-colored lines appearing naturally.At this time, the yellow paper is very suitable for making talismans.Because the production is a bit troublesome and the failure rate is also high, Yuxi only made 27 pieces in three days, and each piece of talisman paper can be cut into six small pieces, which is enough for the time being.

Drawing talismans on the talisman paper is also a relatively delicate matter. Control the aura, unite the mind and mind, and there must be no slack in the middle, so that Yuxi can succeed in six out of ten.The produced talisman paper can be used for active attack or passive protection. Like an amulet, as long as the user wears it close to the body, it can help the owner resist an injury.Active attack, just like his Void Talisman before, the talisman paper needs the user to activate it with real energy.

With the weak mana of Brother Dazhu and Brother Erpang, they can only use three attack symbols.

With this talisman, when encountering the previous situation, the problem can be solved almost without consuming Yuxi's true energy.It is really convenient.

Seeing the benefits of this talisman, Yuxi paid more attention to the talisman-making methods in the Taoist scriptures and ghost-eye talismans, and began to ponder over wooden talismans and jade talismans.

Wooden talismans and jade talismans are much simpler than paper talismans. Whether it is wooden talismans or jade talismans, as long as the original material is fine, no processing is required. However, the quality of the talisman is also limited by the material. The better the material, the better the material. The better the effect is.In addition, jade talismans and wooden talismans need to be carved, and the process of making talismans is from flat to three-dimensional. It is even more difficult to carve talismans on wood and jade materials, and they will be scrapped if you are not careful.Fortunately, Yuxi has the experience of carving, so it is not difficult to do it.

He can't get jade now, so he uses wood carvings. The camphor trees and pine trees in their forest are all excellent materials. It's a pity that they don't have peach trees here, otherwise the effect of peach wood would be better.

Yuxi has made a lot of camphor wood amulets, which are easy to make if you are familiar with them, but the effect is mediocre due to the limitation of materials.Each slap is wrapped with a red thread and given to close people, even Deputy Director Wang of Harbin City also gave a lot.Let him help distribute it to those who helped him in the first place.

Yuxi also knew that most people would regard this as a superstition, so he only said that it was his own intention, a small carving.As for the result, it depends on fate.

He didn't expect that this amulet really saved Deputy Director Wang's life. After receiving it, Deputy Director Wang thought that the small card was very beautiful, with smooth lines and complicated patterns on it, which was quite artistic. I didn’t hang it around my neck and put it on the key to make a key chain. The rest were distributed to the colleagues in the institute. The one who couldn't survive was only slightly injured.Everyone thought it was a miracle, so he didn't think much about it. The only pity was that after the accident, the wooden plate on the key broke.

Time has entered the twelfth lunar month, and the second child has already been on vacation. Under the urging of several phone calls from her uncle, Yuxi took her two younger brothers on the road to Beijing.

Brother Dazhu and Brother Erpang took care of the family affairs. The two of them, together with Brother Xiaogang, moved to Westinghouse the day before they left.Several people took this opportunity to live away from home.With a free mind.The second fat brother Wu is good at swordsmanship, and he claims to be a martial artist, but the people in the village see him wielding a sword, and some people say that he is not doing his job properly.It's too big to do serious business.It's better to go to Yuxi to be clean than to be difficult to display at home.Brother Dazhu is also a bit worried, the yard at home is too small for him to practice arrows well.On the first day I arrived at Yuxi's house, I set up a target in the west yard.Finally, there is a training ground.As for Brother Xiaogang, he was just joining in the fun.

Zhang Zhihui and Zhao Lihua stood on the platform watching, saw Yuxi and Erwa from a distance, and ran over a few steps, "Aren't you tired?" Zhang Zhihui reached out to take the bag from Yuxi's hand.

"Uncle. Aunt." Yuxi said hello to the two of them first.

"Where is the third baby?" The eldest aunt put her arms around the second baby and looked around and asked.

"Hehe, I'm here. Are you looking for me?" The little guy held back for a while, and when he heard someone ask, he poked his head out from behind Yuxi.Uncles and aunts were amused when they saw this little guy sitting in the basket behind Yuxi. The basket was full of things, and Sanwa didn't know whether to stand or sit in it. A small head was exposed, with a black fur cap on it, the bear-like cap made by the third aunt, it looked completely different from the white and fat one half a year ago.

"Hey, our third baby is here." The aunt said and carried him out. The little guy was wearing suspenders, cotton trousers and boots, and a lambskin coat on top.Originally quite rustic, it made him look very cute.The little face is rosy.

"Hey baby, what did your brother feed you? Why are you so fat? My aunt can hardly hold her.

"Eat meat, there is a lot of meat, rhubarb caught it." Sanwa gestured with her hands, but she didn't recognize it.

"Eating meat, what else does the third child like to eat? When I get home, my aunt will cook something delicious for you." After the aunt finished speaking, she took the second child by the hand, bowed her head and said to him, "Your uncle knows you like donkey meat. There are quite a few, and they are kept in the car."

"What you are holding here is so heavy. Didn't you let you take things?" Uncle said to Yuxi with some reproach.

"Nothing is from home, bring it to uncle for you to taste." Yuxi smiled.

When the group left the station, Zhang Zhihui came to a jeep with a few nephews, "This is specially borrowed by Uncle Fan to pick you up. He also wants to treat you to dinner, but he is busy these days, so I will make an appointment with him." Well, I’m treating guests at the restaurant on the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month, so I’ll introduce you to some of my uncle’s good friends, well, they’re all from the old school, and they have a very good relationship with your mother.”

Yuxi nodded and got into the car.The aunt and the two younger brothers sat in the back, and after a while, they both took the donkey meat and gnawed on it. "Elder boy, you can eat one too. There is still a while before dinner. You must be tired after driving all day." Aunt Fire the first one to the front.

"It's okay, we don't feel too tired when we sit on the sleeper." Yuxi took it over and said.

"Is there anything going on on the road?" the uncle asked.

"Auntie, we ran into a thief on the train." Erwa said with a bulging mouth, obviously Erwa already regarded uncle and aunt as very close people.Only people who are close to them can let go.

"Really? Are you all right?" My aunt asked in surprise.

Erwa shook her head, "It's okay, but a big brother got his money stolen." This incident obviously left a deep impression on the child.

"What's going on, big boy?" My aunt asked quickly.

Yuxi turned around and said, "Last night, two men stole money in the carriage and stole a big brother from the middle bunk opposite us. At that time, they had knives in their hands and we didn't dare to speak. In the end, the big brother was taken away." About two hundred dollars."

"Didn't you make soft sleepers?" the uncle asked.

"No, I didn't get a soft sleeper ticket." Yuxi said.

"It's really messy." The aunt said and patted Erwa's head, "You are not scared, are you?"

Erwa shook her head, "I'm not afraid, my brother is here." After speaking, she continued to eat a big mouthful of donkey meat.

"You child, I believe in your brother. Your brother is only so old. If he meets a bad person, there is nothing he can do. I just said how good it is for you to live with us. I am quite afraid of walking back and forth like this. Look at how many Dangerous."

"It's okay, those people didn't do anything when they saw us as children." If Yuxi didn't have two younger brothers by his side, he would dare to fight with those people, but he had to be careful with everything when there were two children and three children, let alone these few Personally, I think it is a gang committing crimes. Yuxi also knows something about the situation on the train. These people are active between one or two stations. There are about ten people in a gang on a train. If you fight this person, more than ten people may come out at once. Personally, last night those people didn't touch the few people who were awake. There were two people who came to them, one with a knife, forcing the woman in the lower berth, and the other stealing the pocket of the man in the middle berth. Yuxi saw that the person took out more than 200 yuan from his wallet, and returned more than 30 yuan to the person in the middle shop.It looks like it's a regular job.At that time, besides the Yuxi brothers, there were three other people around, two men and one woman, none of them moved.Later, when these people left, the person in the middle shop woke up and someone told him that he had lost the money, and that person didn't think about calling the police or anything. It seemed to be a common occurrence.I've heard of it before, but I didn't expect it to be so rampant.

Yuxi knows that there is a bright side and a dark side in this world, he can't be a hero, even if he has the ability, he can't put his two younger brothers in danger because of his passion.So there was nothing he could do at the time.It's just that sometimes there are many ways to punish a person.

Misfortune Talisman Yuxi has always thought that this is a relatively magical talisman. Even though he is already a practitioner, he is still very curious about this kind of problem that cannot be explained by theory. Time is plagued by bad luck. Yuxi doesn't quite understand how the bad luck charm works, but there is a comment in the Taoist scriptures that the bad luck charm is related to merit. If a person has merit, then the bad luck charm will not work to a certain extent, or The effect is very small, otherwise the effect will increase.This may be the so-called role of heaven.

Yuxi has seen the emphasis on merit and virtue in the Taoist scriptures, and has emphasized the role of merit and virtue in practice several times.He didn't understand very well, but he knew very well that those people who stole money on the train had absolutely no merit.

When I came to my uncle's house, Sister Yunduo was still in class. She was already a sophomore in high school this year, and she was very busy with her studies.

Yuxi took out all the things she brought from home, some mountain goods and a set of yellow leather knee pads for her uncle, who had frostbite on his front legs and felt uncomfortable when it rained on cloudy days, which was the most suitable.

"Uncle, these are the salted duck eggs I made. Try it when you eat and see how it tastes?" Yuxi took out a large package from the bottom of the basket, which contained fifty salted duck eggs.When the salted duck eggs were ready, he gave away a lot, ate some by himself, and kept the rest here.

"Oh, let me take a look." After Zhang Zhihui finished speaking and opened the package, he was stunned when he saw that the duck egg turned out to have a dark green skin. If he didn't know it and took a quick look, he would think it was jade.It also has a smooth and round feeling to the touch. "How did you make it into this color? They all look the same, like jade. It looks pretty good regardless of the taste."

"Try it. I think it should be delicious." My aunt stood up holding a duck egg, walked to the kitchen, and heard her cry in surprise after a while.

"Zhihui, look at this color. It's so beautiful. Is this a duck egg?"

"Bring it here and let me see."

Zhao Lihua took the duck egg that had been cut in half and handed it to her husband. Zhang Zhihui saw that the duck egg was really beautiful. The outer skin was dark green with a jade-like luster, but the egg white inside was as white as snow, and it was a little elastic. The feeling, the polish on it seems to be flowing.As for the egg yolk in the middle, it is brighter in color, like a burning flame, the dancing color between golden orange and golden yellow, which is like a fire when paired with the white egg white next to it. enthusiasm.

"It's pretty good just by looking at the appearance. I'll try it." Zhang Zhihui said, holding a piece of egg heart with his chopsticks.As soon as the egg yolk was in the mouth, I felt a burst of aroma rushing straight to my forehead, just like eating caviar for the first time, and the taste buds suddenly burst.

Zhang Zhihui closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, then opened his eyes.

"How is it?" Zhao Lihua asked.

Zhang Zhihui shook his head, "Taste it yourself, I can't describe the feeling."

Zhao Lihua also took a bite, and she couldn't believe it immediately, "This is so delicious, how can salted duck eggs make such a taste." After speaking, she looked at Yuxi.

Yuxi smiled, "When the duck eggs are marinated, more than ten kinds of spices and herbs are added. There are two additions during the marinating process. It is quite troublesome, but the taste is really good. I didn't I thought it would be really successful like this.” In fact, the ultimate secret of this duck egg does not lie in what ingredients are used in it, but the biggest secret lies in the formation pattern carved on the salted duck egg jar when it is stored.That's right, the array.

Yuxi has always felt that "Miscellaneous Notes of the Four Seas" was buried in the Qing palace, and the person who got that book may not have really studied it. The author of this book should be a practitioner, and he is still a person who likes to enjoy The book records some things in a mess, including some messy runes. Yuxi didn't recognize it before, and thought it was drawn by the author at random, because each rune appeared at the end of the article. Later, Yuxi The writing method of runes is found in the ghost-eye talisman and the Daoist scriptures. This is a unique writing method of Taoism, Yunzhuan.

If you want to learn this kind of cloud seal script, you must first understand Taoist talismans, and the two complement each other.Indispensable.Yuxi has been studying for a while, but she doesn't know much about it. Fortunately, it's not difficult in this chapter, all she needs is a spiritual water talisman.

Yuxi felt that she wanted to learn too much, just like the stewed pork that she made before was not as good as it was in the book.No way, who told him that he didn't know Yun Zhuan at all at that time.Of course, he also admires the person who wrote this book, who is so persistent in enjoying it.

"The salted duck egg you made is not troublesome, will it take you a long time?" Zhang Zhihui asked Yuxi after eating half a salted duck egg.

"No, this kind of duck eggs can be stored for half a year as long as they are unopened in a jar after they are made, and can be stored for a month after being opened after washing off the skin. So you can make a lot at one time. It only takes half a day to make all the ingredients." Yuxi thought for a while that if she could do a lot at one time, the problem of production time would be solved.

"That's good. I think this duck egg is very good for takeaway. As long as everyone eats it, they will definitely become repeat customers." Zhao Lihua said with her arms around Sanwa.

"Well, that's for sure. I think this business can be done. How much is your cost?" Zhang Zhihui took out a notebook from under the coffee table, and wrote something on it with a pen.

"When I bought the duck eggs, it cost [-] cents, and the other materials were less than [-] cents." The pickle jar was included in the [-] cents.

"The cost is not high, but each of these eggs should be sold for one piece." Zhang Zhihui wrote and painted.

"I'm willing to sell it for one yuan. But you have to taste it, otherwise it will be a bit expensive. Now the salted duck eggs are only fifty cents." Zhao Lihua nodded and said.

"We're not afraid of word-of-mouth, but we've accumulated little by little." Zhang Zhihui calculated, "I'll have a rest the day after tomorrow, and the eldest child will follow me to have a look. Let's choose a better store. You see, if you are in the capital, you can open it earlier. "

Yuxi felt a little headache seeing her uncle mentioning the old things again, and the uncle almost repeated it every time he wrote a letter or made a phone call. "Uncle, in fact, this matter is no better than me. Some spices needed for this duck egg can be prepared in advance. Afterwards, I don't need to watch the marinating process. Anyone can do it." The most important thing is the problem of the tank itself. As long as the secrets in the vat are not discovered, even if there is a method of pickling, it will be much worse.

Zhang Zhihui frowned and thought for a while, "Can you guarantee that the secret recipe will not be discovered?"

"Absolutely not." Yuxi shook her head.

"Well, let's get this matter resolved as soon as possible." Zhang Zhihui made the final decision.Speaking of which, the salaries of him and his wife have increased again in the past six months, and he himself is better off as a surgeon in all aspects. Not to mention raising three nephews, he can afford to raise three more nephews, but that's not how it works of.

They have exchanged a lot of phone calls and letters in the past six months. His nephew is definitely a self-reliant person, especially with his two younger brothers, he has feelings like parents raising children.He even has a strong desire to control his own family.He hopes that everything in his family can be controlled by him, even if it is his uncle, if you treat me well, I will accept and remember, and one day I will repay it.This keeps others out.

Although Zhang Zhihui felt a little sad thinking about it this way, in the end he still wanted to respect his nephew's ideas, not to mention he also hoped that he would succeed.If the store here opens, will the three brothers be able to enter Beijing sooner?

The author has something to say: The thing about the thief here was experienced by Qiye. It happened 20 years ago, and I still remember it very clearly. At that time, Qiye was very young, so I didn’t understand it at the beginning. I know my aunt, who threatened the aunt next to me with a knife, with a smile on his face, just like talking about homework.The other person took out the wallet on the opposite student's body, took a lot of money from it, and finally left fifty. The college student slept so badly that he was woken up by the person next to him when the two people left. .Qiye was too stupid, he waited for the people next to him to talk about it before he realized that the two were thieves.I was terrified.
