I survive in the weird Liaozhai
Chapter 32 Preparation
After returning to Qingyang Temple, Gu Nian'an picked up the "Heavenly Questions" formation diagram and knocked on the old Taoist's door.
Click, click, click three times
Soon the old Taoist opened the door. He looked at his dusty disciple with some surprise. What was he planning to do?
The two entered the room, Gu Nian'an spread out the "Heavenly Questions" formation diagram on the table, and then explained his ideas to the old Taoist in detail.
After hearing his apprentice's plan, Taoist Master Qi Yuan was stunned.
He had no other intention in taking out the "Heavenly Questions" formation diagram. He just wanted to let his disciple see it. He had no intention of setting up the formation at all.
He has been studying this thing for decades. How could he not know how difficult it is?
Not to mention the area it occupies, just the pile of materials that have never been heard of before would be so confusing that even the current emperor would be dumbfounded when he saw it.
It's simply impossible to meet the requirements stated on the parchment.
However, his apprentice's amazing actions really opened the eyes of the old Taoist.
The peerless formation that was supposed to shock the heavens and the earth and make the gods and ghosts weep was turned into a little trick of playing house by him.
If the person who created the formation knew about this operation, he would have to climb out of his coffin and give him two big bags.
However, Taoist Qi Yuan knew that he was primarily responsible for this matter. If he hadn't pulled out the Heavenly Questions formation diagram to show off, there wouldn't have been such a big misunderstanding.
"Which Nian An, I..."
Before Taoist Qi Yuan could finish his words, Gu Nian'an waved his hand.
“Master, don’t worry. Although the formation is a little small and the materials are a little crude, I will restore it in proportion.
"I have cleared a piece of open space of about 100 meters on the mountain. I will speed up the preparation of materials and try to finish it before the New Year."
Upon hearing this, Taoist Qi Yuan was speechless. This disciple's ability to act was truly extraordinary. It had only been a short period of time and the venue was already ready.
But this is also the disciple's filial piety, isn't it? Taoist Qi Yuan is not an ungrateful person. The disciple has done so much for him, so there is nothing to say. He just needs to keep going.
So the two Taoists, one old and one young, started a heated discussion on the construction of the "Heavenly Questions" formation.
Qi Yuan said, "This is the ancestral vein of all mountains, the spiritual root of heaven and earth. I don't know if our little Qingfeng can do it."
Gu Nian'an: "No problem. Although our Xiaoqingfeng is not a fairy mountain, it is a place of outstanding people and good fortune."
Qi Yuan said: "Then how can we solve the omen of the sun and moon shining together?"
Gu Nian'an: "Find an auspicious day, when the sun sets and the moon is in the same sky, so it can be used."
Taoist Qi Yuan: "The Drum of the Prison Ox"
Gu Nian'an waved his hand and assured, "It's just a small matter. I have time in the next two days. It shouldn't be a problem to go down the mountain and find a big drum."
This heated discussion lasted until the evening, during which time the two of them ate casually in the room.
The final result of the discussion came out. Taoist Qi Yuan was responsible for preparing the clothes for the sacrifice and other miscellaneous small items, and also teaching the little girl Cai Xi to dance.
As for himself! The workload will be relatively large. In addition to preparing the materials for the formation, he also has to find a way to figure out the general outline of the formation.
In a blink of an eye, the middle of the twelfth lunar month has passed, and more than a month has passed since Gu Nian'an discussed the formation with Taoist Qi Yuan.
He had basically completed the general framework of the formation and was just looking at the small wooden figures and piles of earth standing on the open ground.
Gu Nian'an was also somewhat speechless. The more he looked at it, the more something seemed wrong. It felt a bit like a mass grave, eerie and gloomy.
But there was no other way. The space was limited and the materials were insufficient. He had done his best to make it into what it is now.
He almost vomited from carving wood this month. Fortunately, he practiced martial arts, so his hands were very steady and he could carve wood very quickly. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably vomit blood after seeing the workload.
Especially the big drum placed in the center of the formation, he spent a lot of effort on this thing.
At first, for this thing, he wanted to rush to the Langhuan County Government Office, pick up their redress drum and run away.
But Taoist Qi Yuan refused to agree. Finally, with the help of Taoist Qi Yuan, they got a smaller opera troupe from the next village to use as a makeshift.
Compared to his own side, Taoist Qi Yuan's work was much smoother.
The fabric was purchased from the county town. The old man has some experience in needlework.
After all, the clothes that the two children had worn since they were young were all sewn by Taoist Qi Yuan himself, stitch by stitch.
Now it’s just a matter of cutting a few pieces of clothing with some special features, which is not a difficult task for an experienced person who is skilled in manual work.
It is also worth mentioning that the little girl Caixi is absolutely talented in dancing. The old Taoist just gave her a little guidance, and now the little girl can dance very well.
Taoist master Qi Yuan and little girl Cai Xi had basically completed their work about half a month ago.
Now as long as I can finish my own part, I can start trying the "Heavenly Questions" formation.
After inserting the last wooden man, he breathed a sigh of relief; everything was ready.
Just wait for an auspicious day to officially start the battle. He has checked and the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month is a good day.
Besides, it is already the twelfth lunar month, and the Chinese New Year will be here in just over a month.
Thanks to the Li family, Qingyang Temple is relatively wealthy this year. When things here are settled, I will ask the old Taoist to buy more New Year goods and sew a few sets of clothes for the little girl.
As for himself, he has already dealt with most of the slightly dangerous wild animals on the nearby hills.
It seems that we can only go further, at least to hunt some decent prey before the New Year.
Ugh!
If I count carefully, it has been seven years since I came into this world. He came into this world in the early winter of the twenty-seventh year of Dingwu (now October), and now it is the thirty-fourth year of Dingwu. Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye. Time flies so fast.
But he didn't hate this kind of life. In his previous life, he had no time to rest for a living, money, fame and fortune.
He spent more than thirty years busy, but only after he traveled through time did he realize that he had lived those thirty years in vain and that in the end he had nothing.
Although the world may be a little dangerous now, as long as I don't go out and stay safely in Xiaoqingfeng, there shouldn't be any problems.
With the company of my master and fellow apprentice sisters, I won’t feel lonely.
Moreover, he can go hunting and practice martial arts in his spare time. He feels that he will never get bored of such days.
Looking at the sun gradually setting, Gu Nian'an picked up a long knife from the open space.
It's time for him to go down the mountain. He will take a day off tomorrow. After he has adjusted his condition, he will go with the Taoist priest the day after to witness what the "Heavenly Questions" formation he described is really like.
