All Heavens: I teach Pangu to create the world

The sun is rising.

When Qiu Sheng arrived at the charity cemetery, he saw Wencai practicing martial arts outside the cemetery with a sad face and a bruised face.

"The sun is rising from the west, and you're actually practicing here?"

Qiu Sheng looked at the sun in the sky with an exaggerated expression and exclaimed.

"Oh, don't mention it. It was Master who saw Xiao Ran getting up at five o'clock to practice, so he insisted that I practice too. I was lazy for a while, so I got beaten. Master also made me practice until noon!"

Wencai covered the red marks on his face and said with tears in his eyes.

He has never gotten up so early to practice martial arts since he was a child.

"You deserve it! It's your fault for always being so slacking when practicing martial arts that you can't even do the Seven Star Steps properly!"

Qiu Sheng rolled his eyes at him. He had been practicing hard before, but Wencai was just slacking off and laughing at him.

Just as Qiu Sheng was about to walk into the charity cemetery, Wencai stopped him.

"Don't go in either, let's practice together. Master has instructed that you must practice until noon as well!"

"Oh, I want one too?"

"Yeah, it's your fault that you are not as skilled as others!"

Wencai grinned, thinking that it was pleasant to have someone to share the misfortune with.

Inside the Yizhuang.

Xiao Ran was asking Uncle Jiu about the problems he encountered during his practice yesterday.

"Very good. At this rate, you'll be able to get started soon."

Uncle Jiu was very satisfied with Xiao Ran and had a constant smile on his face.

"However, you can't chew too much. You have never been exposed to talismans before, and your use of magic power is relatively superficial. You can put the art of talismans aside for now."

"However, Master Ren told me yesterday that the house-guarding talismans will expire in a month, so he asked me to draw twenty more. You can watch them from the side for a while."

Xiao Ran nodded. He had seen Mu Sichen draw the tracking talisman with his bare hands before, and he was very interested in the art of talismans.

"To draw a talisman, you first need to calm your mind and have no distractions. Only then will the success rate of drawing the talisman be high."

Uncle Jiu prepared the tools for drawing talismans while explaining to Xiao Ran.

"Drawing a talisman requires brush, ink, paper, inkstone, cinnabar, and talisman cloth, also known as talisman paper."

"Talisman paper can generally be made of peach wood, cypress wood, jujube wood, stone, brick, yellow paper, etc. Cloth and silk are also common choices. Different talisman cloths are used for different purposes. For example, peach wood boards are often used to drive away evil spirits, while paper talismans can be worn or burned into ashes and swallowed with water."

"Master Ren sent a batch of high-quality peach wood and asked me to help carve two peach wood talismans. The other twenty can be made of ordinary yellow paper."

Xiao Ran looked at the peach wood that Uncle Jiu took out. It was one meter long. Uncle Jiu carefully cut off two three-inch pieces of peach wood and quickly made it into the shape of a wooden sign.

"Once everything is ready, it's time for the second step: requesting a brush, ordering ink, ordering water, ordering paper, ordering cinnabar, etc. Each step requires a pure and sincere heart."

Uncle Jiu demonstrated the entire process and injected magic power into each material.

"Of course, these tedious steps can be omitted in emergencies or when one's magical powers are extremely high."

"The house-guarding talisman is relatively simple. Just make sure your mana is evenly distributed. You need to concentrate your mana at these nodes, linking the entire talisman to form a crude deterrent formation."

Uncle Jiu drew the talisman very slowly and explained the key points to Xiao Ran in detail.

Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes and quietly used his dragon blood to engrave Uncle Jiu's movements in his mind, and his wrist kept imitating Uncle Jiu's movements.

Uncle Jiu quickly carved the two peach wood talismans. The brush was soft and could actually carve the talismans deeply into the hard peach wood.

Then Uncle Jiu began to draw the talisman quickly. Xiao Ran took out a piece of white paper and imitated it on the peach wood talisman.

"Master, can I try the last two?"

Soon Uncle Jiu finished drawing eighteen, leaving only the last two.

"Okay, but don't worry, it's okay to fail."

Uncle Jiu looked at the house-guarding talisman that Xiao Ran had copied, which was exactly the same as the peach wood talisman, and nodded with a smile on his face.

Xiao Ran took a deep breath, picked up the pen and concentrated, trying to keep his wrist as steady as possible.

A trace of magic power flowed down Xiao Ran's arm into the talisman pen and fell onto the talisman paper. A talisman to ward off evil spirits quickly took shape in Xiao Ran's hand.

boom!

Suddenly, the talisman paper started to burn.

"What a shame, you were a bit anxious at the end. Don't be anxious. Slow down."

Uncle Jiu looked at Xiao Ran, his eyes unable to conceal shock. It was his first time drawing a talisman, and if he hadn't been a little anxious at the last moment, he would probably have succeeded on the first try.

What a monster!

Xiao Ran took another breath, and golden light appeared in his eyes, which made him absolutely calm. He picked up the pen and drew the talisman again.

This time, Xiao Ran's hands were steadier.

"Candle Dragon bloodline have this use?"

Uncle Jiu watched from the side and was greatly surprised.

"It's done!"

Xiao Ran put down his pen, and a brand new house-guarding talisman appeared in front of the two of them.

"Not bad!"

Uncle Jiu picked up the house-warding talisman, looked at it carefully, nodded with satisfaction, and then said.

"You've used too much mana. Ordinary talisman paper is only valid for one year. Using too much mana is a bit of a waste!"

Xiao Ran nodded. He used more mana for the first one to ensure success, but used one-third less mana for the second one.

"Very good, let's stop here for today. You can't bite off more than you can chew. Go back and practice more, and drawing talismans will become much easier in the future."

Uncle Jiu was very satisfied with Xiao Ran's performance.

"Master, Master, something bad has happened!"

Just then, Qiu Sheng and Wencai suddenly rushed in, followed by an honest man.

"I'm fine!"

Uncle Jiu glared at the two of them fiercely. When they were asked to draw talismans, they couldn't draw a single one in ten days or half a month, but Xiao Ran drew two in just half a day.

"No, Master, something happened. The kid from the Zhang family went into the water at Qingshui Bay yesterday and has been unconscious for a whole day. He might have been possessed by a water ghost!"

Qiu Sheng said hurriedly.

"Uncle Jiu, you've got to be careful, because my Zhang family only has this one son!"

Old Zhang looked anxious and knelt down in front of Uncle Jiu.

"Don't worry, it's only been one day. Normally, it takes seven days for a soul to leave the body before something bad happens."

Uncle Jiu quickly put on his Taoist robe, Qiu Sheng and Wencai picked up various props with ease, and under the leadership of Lao Zhang, they quickly ran towards Qingshui Village.

Xiao Ran also suppressed his curiosity and followed.

This was his first time dealing with non-human monsters.

Everyone quickly arrived at Lao Zhang's house. At this time, Lao Zhang's house was full of people with anxious looks on their faces. They only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Uncle Jiu coming and made way for Uncle Jiu and others.

Loach was about ten years old. He was lying on the bed with a pale face. He was covered with three quilts but was still shivering from the cold. However, he could not wake up.

"He lost one soul and three spirits, and he has a lot of yin energy. It seems he encountered a water ghost."

"Strange! I just recently cleared out the water ghosts near Clearwater Bay. How come there's one here so soon?"

Uncle Jiu frowned, reached out for the talisman paper, drew a talisman on the spot, lit it, dissolved it in hot water, and gave it to Mudfish.

The evil energy wrapped around the loach's body quickly dissipated, and the loach's face slowly began to show color, but it still did not wake up.

"Let's go to Clearwater Bay!"
