Chapter 346: Small Bag and Small House

Chapter 346: Small Bag and Small House The fight lasted less than a quarter of an hour, but repairing the house took several days. However, the Ministry of Rites invited an old craftsman, and Wan Xinrong also brought Taoist Master Tao and others to help. Together with the calm Mr. Luo, the little junior sister who got excited when she saw physical work, and Mr. Lin Jue and Mr. Pan, the courtyard has been quite lively these days. Everyone was working hard in the cold winter. In a trance, it seemed as if they were helping their fellow brothers repair and paint the Taoist temple on the way down the mountain. A period of peace followed. The news of the magic fight in the palace spread outside the palace, and the fact that the Dazu magic warriors attacked Master Lin's residence at night could not be concealed from those who were interested. These two things began to spread in the capital, and it happened that the Spring Festival was not long after, so they became the topic of conversation for the people of the capital after dinner, and became a good remedy to relieve their embarrassment and depression. Instead, it helped to promote the reputation of "Master Lin". It vaguely has the meaning of overshadowing "Master Fan". After the Spring Festival, Junior Sister and Xiaohua also returned to the mountain. Lin Jue was still writing in the quiet room.

“Thus, we do not seek small balances at every moment, but seek great balances within a day, which is the great yin and yang method.” As the last word was written, a wind suddenly blew in the room. It was the early spring of the third year of Jingping. There were several sunny days. The cold winter had just passed, and the late spring cold had not yet arrived. Lin Jue was not wearing thick clothes and had just washed his hair in the good weather. At this time, his thin clothes and fresh hair were all blown by the breeze that came from nowhere, and the white gauze outside the quiet room seemed to be dancing. "Wow..." The papers were rustling in the wind, as if the world was being flipped through one by one. "Ok?" Lin Jue reached out and held it down. The wind gradually died down. Lin Jue took out all the papers of the Great Yin-Yang Method that he had written in the past six months, put them together neatly in order, added the wordless book covers that he had prepared long ago, and sewed them up carefully with needle and thread. Fortunately, he has done this kind of thing more than once or twice, and now his self-installation skills are pretty good. It didn't take long before a book of spiritual skills was bound. Although there was no breeze again, the book gradually gained spiritual charm. All this happened unconsciously. When Lin Jue finished sewing the book, he realized something was wrong. He picked it up and examined it carefully. The paper of the book had become extremely tough, as if it could not be cut by a knife and was immune to water and fire. "really……" Both spiritual methods and magical methods are in line with the great principles of heaven and earth, especially the "Great Yin and Yang Method", which is extremely mysterious and rare. I wonder how many copies of the "Great Yin and Yang Method" are left in this world, but there should be very few anyway. When I write it down myself, it becomes strange. Just like this ancient book of his, which recorded too many spells and magical powers, he himself became extraordinary. Lin Jue took the book and flipped through it for a few times. He couldn't think of anything missing for the time being and was quite satisfied. He put it away and took out the book on magic. Several new pages have already been added to the book. "Wow..."

Painting a canvas into a river is an ancient theatrical art. It is said that there was an excellent painter in ancient times who was good at painting dragons. His paintings were so lifelike that he could not paint the eyes of the dragons, otherwise the dragons would come alive and fly away. It is said that there were also painters who could make the things they painted come true. They could paint tigers that would come out of the painting and hurt people, paint mountains and rivers that could enter and exit, and paint rivers that would pour enough water to flood a hundred miles of plains. Later, someone invented a theatrical trick based on this, which was called "Painting Canvas into a River", which refers to all the theatrical tricks in which the fake is indistinguishable from the real or the fake becomes real. When one's attainments are shallow, one takes the false as true; when one's attainments are deep, one becomes half true and half false. If one can reach the level of the ancients, even the false can become true. "What's false can become true..." Lin Jue naturally knew that the ancient people mentioned here were the two painters in the legend who could make things come to life. But is there really such a strange thing? Lin Jue's eyes turned, and he first saw the ancient book, and then he saw the Great Yin-Yang Method that he had just written down. He did not actively give it any spiritual magic, but he had to believe it. This world is truly mysterious. "Wow..." A sleight of hand is an illusion or magic trick. Anything that causes the scene before people's eyes to change without any other strange appearance is an eye-smoothing trick. From small things like making grass bloom to big things like dragons and phoenixes dancing together, to changing the heavens and the earth and hanging the stars upside down, all the changes only occur before people's eyes and there is no real wonder. Lin Jue looked at it and turned another page. "Wow..." Seven Arrow Curse, a curse technique. This method originated from the seven arrows with nail heads combined with a doll. It can curse a person to bleed from all seven orifices and die, but it is ineffective against gods, ghosts, and immortals. "Wow..." Entering the water, five elements magic. Beginners can enter the water without drowning, for a moment or a day. With more practice, they can breathe freely in the water and move freely, like fish and dragons. "Wow..." The earth escape method is one of the five elements escape methods. Heaven produces five elements, and the earth bears yin and yang, all of which can be used as paths. Therefore, yin and yang and the five elements all have escape methods, which are inspired by heaven and earth and born from the great way. If you practice, all things in heaven and earth can come and go freely. If you practice to a high level, you will be in harmony with all things when you practice, and you will be the same as all things. Nothing can hurt you, and you can walk between gold and stone and walk on water and fire. If you want to learn the Five Elements Escape Technique, you need to have a sense of the Five Elements and be in harmony with the Five Elements. You cannot learn it if you are not compatible with them, and you cannot learn it if you have distracting thoughts. "Junior sister is definitely suitable for this." My junior sister has no distractions and is in harmony with the earth element. Plus, she’s now practicing the Five Elements spiritual arts, so she’ll probably learn faster than I do. Lin Jue turned another page. "Wow..." Wall-walking, a method of moving with divine powers. Practitioners can walk on sheer walls, walk on cliffs as if they were walking on flat ground, or even hang upside down on their heads.

Lin Jue flipped the page again and found that there were still two blank pages emitting a faint golden light, which made him want to take notes. It should be that in the previous fight, it realized that it had been hit by a spell, and this spell should be from Dazu, and not from the Central Plains. It is unfamiliar to the ancient books, so when it saw the unfamiliar spell, it wanted to collect it and write it down. Unfortunately, Lin Jue did not obtain that kind of magic. "I'm sorry. I'll have to wait until I become enlightened and have more time to travel around and slowly collect them for you." Lin Jue had a vague feeling—— This ancient book must have had several owners before me, so I cannot be its final destination. Either I cannot achieve immortality, then I will surely reach the end before the ancient book. If I achieve immortality, then one day this ancient book will no longer be of any help to me, and then it will be time to let it go to find the next destined person. Before that, we should do what other predecessors have done and create more opportunities for the next person who is destined to meet us. Even if the predecessors have already written about most of the magic in the world, how can they write about all the magic in the world? Lin Jue looked at it for a long time before putting the ancient book away. The weather is so nice today, especially after the cold winter. It is not a good time to stay at home reading, but a time to go out for a stroll. Lin Jue went out and walked to the lake. Sure enough, Master Fan was playing chess with Mr. Pan. Before I came to the capital, these two people didn't talk much. Master Fan thought that Mr. Pan had a bad temper, so Mr. Pan set up a trap for Master Fan to find the Crocodile King. I didn't expect that after I came to the capital, these two people had reached the point where they would sit here and play chess when they had nothing to do. "Fan Daoyou." "Eh? Brother Dao!" "benefactor!" They both stood up immediately and saluted him. "You don't have to be so polite." Lin Jue said, "The weather is good today, I want to go out for a walk and make two small bags. I want to ask Fellow Daoist Fan, which shop nearby does good needlework?" "Needlework? Zhou Sanniang from Jinyunfang in the streets around here was very good at it. Everyone praised her. Not only did many rich people go to her for work, but some dignitaries also invited her to work in their houses, and even asked her to teach their daughters." "Fan Daoyou actually knows this kind of thing so clearly?" "Alas, there are many demons and ghosts in the city. Among them, there is a group of foxes who like to eavesdrop on other people's homes and talk everywhere. If they accidentally overhear something, it's not worth mentioning." Fan Tianshi waved his hand and said to Lin Jue, "I have warned them many times not to listen to, look at, or say anything indecent, but their nature is not so easy to change." "Jinyunfang, Zhou Sanniang." Lin Jue wrote it down. "I want to make some small things. I wonder if there is a good carpenter nearby?" "Small items?" Tianshi Fan pondered. "As for the local carpenters, whenever the nobles want to make tables, chairs, and beds, they will ask Zhang Daizhao from Qiongzhifang to make them. It is said that even some beds in the palace were made by him. But when it comes to making small items, it is the other Liu Daizhao who makes them exquisitely and quickly." "Liu Daizhao..." "Although I know the place, it's not easy to find. Today's weather is really good, and Lord Pan's defeat is certain, so I might as well take you there." Master Fan said, standing up. "That's not necessary." "I want to take a few steps, too." "Well."

Lin Jue said, looking towards the courtyard: "Fuyao!" Unexpectedly, the willow branches above his head shook, and the fox fell from the sky and landed on the ground. "Let's go! I'll make you a bag!" "Hey!" The fox was stunned at first, then quickly became interested, but then became a little confused again. I have a fox, what do I need to do with it? In short, they followed Lin Jue in small steps, and Lin Jue followed Master Fan. The two of them and the fox walked through the streets and alleys. There were always people on the road looking at them, some of them saluted from a distance, and some greeted them. When they arrived at Jinyunfang, they found Zhou Sanniang. When the fox was lying on the ground wonderingly, he was picked up by the Taoist priest. The Taoist held the fox in one hand and the cloth bag in the other, and said that he wanted to make a bag that could hold the cloth bag. It had to be made of the best and softest material, and there had to be a small bag on the outside. No matter how much he ran or jumped, the bag would not move too much and the things would not fall out. Fortunately, there are many people in the capital who are obsessed with material things. Most of the wives and daughters of high-ranking officials and nobles like to keep cats and dogs, and make clothes and bags for them. Zhou Sanniang is familiar with this. However, the people standing in front of her were Master Fan and Master Lin. Zhou Sanniang respected them even more than she respected the princes and nobles, so she asked more detailed and attentively. Then he made another small cloth bag suitable for the egret to hold or carry. After deciding, we went to Qiongzhifang. Find Liu Daizhao. After arriving here, Lin Jue asked a carpenter to customize a small house that was the size of a palm and about two inches high. He made it with the best wood and placed a bed, table and chairs inside like an ordinary house. Liu Daizhao had made many similar ornaments. Although he didn't know what this Master Lin was going to use it for, he tried his best to ensure that it would be made to look exactly like the real thing. (End of this chapter)
