Chapter 199
The Bai He Master Master Tongzi was a little suspicious for a while, who is the fake between himself and the one opposite?
Why, it even has talisman needles!
Li Zhuiyuan's hands were still continuing to form seals, while his eyes were staring at the talisman needles in the masked person's hands.
The sealing and breaking evil talisman needles were exactly the same.
But this, how is it possible!
Li Zhuiyuan's own talisman path was lacking. The talismans he used were all drawn by A-Li, and the three talismans of calming the heart, sealing, and breaking evil originated from the records in Wei Zhengdao's book, which were created by Wei Zhengdao himself.
In the world, there must be many talismans with similar effects to these three, but if even the appearance and patterns look exactly the same, that is absolutely impossible.
Therefore, Li Zhuiyuan guessed that this talisman needle might just be a facade.
The speed of those hands on the coffin increased again. Looking from a distance, there were already afterimages.
Li Zhuiyuan forced himself to keep up. He could feel that the deduction amount had risen to a level at this moment.
The teenager raised his eyes, the doubts in his eyes faded, replaced by certainty.
That's right, the talisman needle is indeed fake.
If the talisman needle were real, then next, things could be left to the effect of the talisman needle to play itself out, and there would be no need to suddenly increase such a large deduction amount.
Talisman paper, formations, aren't these just for convenience and labor-saving?
How come when it gets to you, it becomes more tiring and cumbersome?
Because what you are deducing now is actually the effect after the talisman needle enters the body.
This Nuo opera puppet technique, all forms are just forms, including the footwork of the three-step praise and the phantom of the trident. They are just for presentation, just taking a shape. Their actual effects are all forcibly replicated by deduction.
It's like a piece of wood being randomly chopped with a knife to make a dent, and if you want to replicate it, you have to measure it precisely, carve it carefully with a small carving knife bit by bit, and then patiently polish it, finally perfectly restoring this dent.
Deduction speeds up, and the black shadows integrated into the white cocoon are tools and raw materials.
This is really... so extravagant and wasteful.
Compared to it, Xu Yijin's heavy suitcase seems as light as a feather.
Her suitcase can at least be carried or shouldered, but he can't stay here forever without going out or moving this place away.
Then what is the point of him learning this Nuo opera puppet technique?
It is very mysterious, but for him, it has no value at all.
This approach of using a cannon to hit a mosquito is really too detached from reality.
Li Zhuiyuan's eyes gradually turned red, and his brows wrinkled.
Zhao Yi noticed this and was immediately shocked: Is this a loss of heart and a deviation into the devil?
This situation is not uncommon when realizing and learning. Once it happens, it can be as serious as fainting immediately or as light as being confused.
Hey, don't scare me. If something happens to you, what should I do?
Zhao Yi reached out to pull Li Zhuiyuan, but even if he grabbed his arm, the teenager's hands were still continuing to form seals, as if he had fallen into it and couldn't stop at all.
Below, the masked person stabbed the talisman needle into his body, and his breath climbed rapidly. In comparison, the Bai He Master Master Tongzi, who only inserted three sticks of incense to ask for the way, had no improvement other than extending the duration for a round.
The masked person rushed up again. This time, when the two sides fought, the boy was completely at a disadvantage and was beaten to the point of only being able to defend and dodge. Forced, he fought hard to eat a kick from the opponent, borrowed strength to bounce himself away, and pulled away the distance.
He also took out a handful of talisman needles, come on, let's insert needles together.
Being beaten by a fake, the boy was really angry.
Behind, a wisp of blood overflowed from the corner of Li Zhuiyuan's mouth, but the red in his eyes was fading rapidly, and his eyes returned to calm and clarity.
Zhao Yi, who was preparing to forcibly wake the teenager, saw this scene and blinked in disbelief.
No, you recovered so quickly after deviating into the devil?
Zhao Yi was worried about Brother Xiaoyuan before, but now seeing that the Li surname was fine soon, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Li Zhuiyuan didn't have time to pay attention to Zhao Yi in front of him and shouted to the boy in front:
"Don't insert the talisman needle!"
Although the Bai He Master Master Tongzi didn't understand, he chose to obey and took back the talisman needle.
The gap previously gained by being kicked was also wasted.
The masked person attacked again, and the Bai He Master Master Tongzi could only try his best to deal with it, struggling to support.
It won't work to fight like this. He might not be able to hold on until the opponent's time ends.
However, soon, a turning point appeared.
The masked person's body began to crack, the sound of cloth breaking came out, and the whole person was like a deflated ball.
It happened that the two sides exchanged fists again. The boy was already prepared to suffer losses and injuries, but he didn't expect that when the two fists met, he stood still, but the masked person's arm broke.
Even if he didn't know exactly what happened, the boy wouldn't let go of this opportunity.
He immediately took the opportunity to press forward, and the trident stabbed the masked person fiercely. The masked person waved the phantom trident in his hand to block, but before the phantom made contact, the technique effect dissipated, and the trident also disappeared.
"Swish..."
The Bai He Master Master Tongzi cut off the masked person's head.
The headless masked person staggered back. During the retreat, parts of his body began to fall off.
In some fragments, Li Zhuiyuan saw human white bones.
These white bones only revealed themselves for an instant, and soon flames rose, burning all the fragments into ashes.
The Bai He Master Master Tongzi stood on the spot with a trident, panting, a little confused.
Today's fight was confused from beginning to end.
But fortunately, he followed the teenager's words and didn't insert the talisman needle for himself, otherwise his spirit boy would have to lie down again.
It is very unwise to faint in such a weird place and become a burden to the team.
The boy is very concerned about Lin Shu now. If Lin Shu has an accident, the bond between him and the teenager will be broken.
Li Zhuiyuan: "Did you see it just now? White bones."
Zhao Yi: "Saw it, it's human bones, so, these black shadows inside the walls are all people."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Are dead people."
Zhao Yi: "Seems like there's no need to deliberately emphasize this."
Having been soaked here for so many years, it's unrealistic to want to live very healthily.
"No, need to emphasize, dead people!"
Previously, Li Zhuiyuan did deviate into the devil, because his thoughts went into a dead end and kept bumping around.
He knew that this Nuo opera puppet technique was very mysterious and profound, otherwise he wouldn't have insisted on imitating and learning until now, but when its practical value was severely splashed with a basin of cold water, Li Zhuiyuan fell into deep self-doubt.
Fortunately, he figured it out soon.
This puppet technique is indeed excellent. The reason why there is a gap with reality is that one is because those hands on the coffin performed very well, and the other is because they performed too well.
The former is because those hands present the most standard and perfect Nuo opera puppet technique, and the latter is because the special environment here allows it to be calmly extravagant and wasteful.
But this does not mean there is no solution, that is... cost reduction and efficiency increase.
It is known that those black shadows are corpses. Although they have undergone some changes after being soaked here for a long time, corpses are corpses after all. There are many here, but there are more in the outside world.
Theoretically speaking, as long as it is a relatively complete corpse, this Nuo opera puppet technique can be applied.
As for the huge consumption in deduction, it is even easier to solve.
Influenced by the records of the dead Xu Yijin, the puppets pinched by these hands can only replicate the abilities used by the imitator under the current rules, because they know the what but not the why, which leads to a huge increase in deduction costs.
He doesn't need to do this.
For example, the previous "Puppet Bai He Master Master Tongzi," when Li Zhuiyuan performed this puppet technique, many things didn't need to be deduced, because he already knew them.
The "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Sutra" he mastered is more complete and comprehensive than the official general system.
If it weren't for the fact that those Yin gods were unwilling to descend on him, he could completely become a better spirit boy than Lin Shu.
A long time ago, when the two sides clashed on the playground, he pretended to invite General Sun, and the Bai He Master Master Tongzi couldn't tell the truth from the fake.
As for the talisman needle, there is no need to deduce it. He has it in his hand, just equip the puppet directly.
I know this technique, I have the equipment, I am familiar with the fighting style and routines. Isn't the maintenance cost of this puppet suddenly pulled down?
By analogy, for the "Qin Family Dragon-Watching Method" body-refining technique practiced by Runsheng, he understands the deep meaning of the qi gate operation better than Runsheng himself, and he is more familiar with the distribution of evil spirits in his body than Runsheng. After all, he personally helped Runsheng suppress it, so he can also follow the pattern and make a Runsheng puppet.
Next is Tan Wenbin. Tan Wenbin's ghost-controlling technique was also designed by himself. It's just that those two resentful infants are not easy to find. If he can't catch a lonely ghost nearby, he won't pinch Tan Wenbin out.
Finally, Yin Meng...
Well, forget about Mengmeng.
In short, pinching puppets based on his partners is the most cost-effective.
"Snap!"
Above the coffin, the ten fingers clasped tightly again.
At a green stone cone above, ten black shadows slid down, all integrated into the white cocoon at the tip below.
Why did the masked person in the previous round collapse? It was because it was made of five black shadows, and the quality could not support the load pressure after the talisman needle was inserted.
Li Zhuiyuan analyzed based on the number of black shadows and their strength in the first two rounds, and predicted this point in advance, which is why he notified the boy not to insert needles for himself.
But right now, the opponent has improved the teaching quality. Ten black shadows condense the next masked person, and the quality will definitely pass, and it can withstand the effect of the talisman needle insertion.
Zhao Yi: "Why don't we just end it like this? I just discovered that this puppet technique is good, but it doesn't seem practical at all."
Li Zhuiyuan didn't speak.
Zhao Yi continued to persuade: "I know you may not be reconciled in your heart, but sometimes, this is something that can't be helped. This opportunity is not very satisfactory, isn't there the next one?
I suspect that the reason why the previous masked person exploded by himself is because the number of black shadows used for condensation was not enough. Look now, ten slid down in one breath, the white cocoon was stretched so big, and it hasn't fallen down yet. The new one that comes out, I'm afraid it should be able to perfectly exert the previous strength.
Even if this one is solved... it can continue to come out. Maybe next time it will use more black shadows to condense and make a bigger one."
Runsheng shook the Yellow River shovel in his hand and said: "We can go down and help."
Yin Meng nodded.
Tan Wenbin supported his chin and was thinking. He felt that the three of them couldn't go down, just a feeling, he hadn't thought of the specific reason yet.
Zhao Yi: "You must not go down now. Those hands are following its rhythm step by step. If you go down, you may disrupt the rhythm of the questions. It was originally one-on-one, but after going down, it will become two-on-two, three-on-three, and it will completely become a big melee."
Tan Wenbin nodded suddenly. This is why Brother Xiaoyuan only let Lin Shu go down to fight at the beginning.
This Zhao Three-Eyes brain is really good.
He is considered the smartest person he has ever met besides Brother Xiaoyuan.
Runsheng reached out and patted Tan Wenbin's shoulder, saying:
"It's okay, no matter how good the golden mule and silver mule are outside, they can't compare to our own earth mule."
"I really didn't think that way."
Tan Wenbin had no jealousy towards Zhao Yi, and even felt a pity because he had already lit the lamp and walked the river, because Tan Wenbin's own positioning was shouting at the bow of the boat, not a wise general. The reason why he often guest-starred was not because he was smart, but purely because of the lining of his peers.
Zhao Yi pointed to the white cocoon that had hung down and was pulled very long:
"Look, that thing is having a difficult birth. By the time this masked person comes out, the situation will be relatively difficult. At most, we will carry over this round. Beyond this round, the situation will fall into loss of control."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Hmm."
Seeing that the persuasion worked, Zhao Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Why don't we rush over before that thing comes down and seal the coffin lid back?"
Li Zhuiyuan shook his head: "It hasn't been fully performed yet, and I haven't fully learned it. I want to finish this round."
Zhao Yi: "Whether you learn this or not, it really doesn't make much sense, unless you..."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Hmm, I have improved it."
Zhao Yi: "..."
Young Master Zhao clenched his fists and wanted to beat his chest, but when he thought of his fragile heart now, he was afraid of beating himself to death, and finally could only beat the ground.
Li Zhuiyuan: "This is a good opportunity, I don't want to miss it, I want to learn it completely."
Zhao Yi raised his red fist and blew it by his mouth. Thanks to the reopening of his life-and-death door seam, his whole body was soft and weak. This fist had been hitting the ground for so long, but it didn't even break the skin.
"However, have you ever thought that if it still hasn't finished performing in the next round?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Then find a way to urge it to finish performing."
The teenager raised his head and looked at a green inverted cone high in front.
His stopped hands began to form seals. This time, however, he was no longer following the rhythm of those hands on the coffin.
This is his own rhythm.
Zhao Yi's lips began to twitch.
He actually learned a lot, but he didn't have the courage and courage of the teenager to dare to use it directly like this.
Inside the green rock wall above, a black shadow seemed to be drawn and began to move towards that inverted cone.
When he first started, Li Zhuiyuan was still a bit raw, mainly because he was not familiar with the terrain and environment here. He tried three times in a row, but failed to make that black shadow slide down.
However, by the fourth time, it finally entered the hole.
The black shadow slid down and entered the white cocoon at the tip.
Zhao Yi: "You can get it down and pinch the puppet."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Not enough."
The teenager began to continue to draw the second black shadow, let it slide down, and immediately, he began to draw the third one.
The raw materials here are rich and can be obtained locally. If you miss this village, there will be no such classroom.
Third... fourth... fifth!
Li Zhuiyuan was not greedy. He didn't follow the opponent's number of ten black shadows to condense, but only chose five, which was the number used by the opponent in the previous round.
Five black shadows have now all entered the white cocoon.
The teenager crossed his ten fingers and arched upwards!
"Snap!"
The white cocoon fell and smashed on the ground.
The hands above the coffin in the distance also made the same movement, and the white cocoon containing ten black shadows also fell down.
On the ground of the circular hall, two white pools appeared, both in crazy wriggling.
It should be stimulated by this situation. The hands above the coffin actually performed movements that had never been seen before at this moment. Between the changes of the hands, there seemed to be faint white light flowing.
Zhao Yi: "It worked."
Li Zhuiyuan continued to form hand seals while looking at his own pool of white cocoon, and at the same time had to continue to pay attention to the movements of those hands to learn.
One mind and three uses, the teenager can do it, but under this high-intensity situation, efficiency will inevitably decrease, and this pressure is really too great.
In the opponent's pool of white cocoon, there was already a human shape to stand up, while in his own pool, it was still kneeling, and it was still a bit swaying, and the center of gravity was unstable.
This is a very awkward situation. If the opponent can run, jump, and fight next, but his own puppet hasn't taken shape yet, then the opponent just needs to walk over and stomp his puppet to pieces.
Li Zhuiyuan forced himself to keep up, squeezing his brain power. Sure enough, his pool began to stand up, but at the same time, he felt liquid flowing out of his nose. This was a nosebleed.
This is still in the puppet pinching stage, and hasn't started fighting yet, and he already has a nosebleed. If he forces himself to finish, I'm afraid it won't be long before his eyes bleed or even overdraw to blindness.
Mainly because learning this aspect involved too much energy, but the problem is that his original intention was to finish learning this set of puppet techniques. If he doesn't focus on it, where else can he focus?
And this is not like a book, where written records are there, and you can read them slowly and repeatedly;
The performance of those hands, many parts may only have this one time. If you miss it, it will be forever.
Need to find a way.
Li Zhuiyuan turned his head to look at Zhao Yi beside him. Fortunately, the way is right in front of him.
Zhao Yi was looked at by this gaze and couldn't help but shiver, asking: "What are you doing!"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Borrow a brain."
Zhao Yi: "Why?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "You are idle anyway."
Zhao Yi: "This is not a reason."
Li Zhuiyuan: "If I overdraw and faint, what will you do when I meet the Yu family next? What's more, there are more dangers behind. If I am not awake, my people will only focus on protecting me and leaving."
Zhao Yi: "You... are really shameless."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Speed."
Zhao Yi sighed, stood up, his right hand pressed against the life-and-death door seam on his forehead, and his left hand placed on Li Zhuiyuan's head.
Li Zhuiyuan and Zhao Yi closed their eyes at the same time,
Walk Yin!
