Chapter 73 Drawing Talismans on the Body
Liu Xingchen's idea of drawing talismans on people was not a wild fantasy; he had a basis for it.
Tie Zhu was born different from everyone else.
Not to mention his innate superhuman strength, he can even increase his appetite by cultivating immortality.
For Tiezhu, what others cannot do, he may not be unable to do.
Liu Xingchen remembered that when he was practicing drawing talismans with Tie Zhu, he unexpectedly discovered that the cinnabar ink that accidentally splashed onto Tie Zhu's hands would slowly seep into his skin and then disappear, as if Tie Zhu's body had some kind of mysterious attraction to these inks.
This small discovery aroused Liu Xingchen's curiosity, and he began to try drawing talismans on Tie Zhu's body.
At first, he didn't have high hopes, but the result surprised him greatly.
Although it wasn't easy to draw talismans on Tie Zhu's body, he could indeed feel the talismans gradually taking shape on Tie Zhu's skin.
But the human body is not a talisman paper, and it's not so easy to draw. He always failed at some crucial points and couldn't draw a complete talisman.
However, he believed that with more practice, he would definitely be able to draw talismans on Tie Zhu's body.
However, before he could master the technique, he arrived at this trading place, so whether he could draw the talisman on Tie Zhu's body was still unknown.
But now that things have come to this, we can only give it a try.
There's no harm in giving it a try.
Seeing Liu Xingchen take out talisman paper and start mixing cinnabar ink, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"No, are you serious? It's rare to see a gambling arena like a children's game."
Old Hua immediately retorted, "None of your business! Don't forget, you just promised that you could draw talismans."
"Alright, alright, you can draw."
Qian Duo stood back to the side, arms crossed, watching Liu Xingchen busy as if it were a joke.
Liu Xingchen was skilled; he quickly prepared the ink and was about to begin drawing the talisman.
There's a specific rule about where to draw the Vajra talisman on the iron pillar.
Find a flat surface that is convenient for drawing talismans while also maximizing their effectiveness.
Without saying a word, Tie Zhu took off his Taoist robe, revealing his strong upper body, and patted his chest.
"Come on, Brother Xingchen, draw it here."
The chest? That's fine too. It's flat and easy to draw, and it can also protect his vital parts.
Without further hesitation, Liu Xingchen picked up his pen and began to draw on Tie Zhu's chest.
The moment he picked up his pen, the clamor in the room fell silent.
Those present were all independent cultivators, and they were all poor. This meant that in order to save money, they had to be able to do everything themselves.
Drawing talismans is an essential skill for everyone, and they could tell at a glance that the talisman Liu Xingchen drew was promising.
With each stroke of the talisman brush, streams of spiritual energy remained on Tie Zhu's chest, beginning to outline runes brimming with spiritual power.
"This person can actually draw talismans on his body!"
"Is this even human? Could it be a talisman that has come to life?"
The chaotic gossip among the people was making Qian Duoduo (meaning "too much money") very upset, which meant that everyone had high hopes for the two boys, and the talisman might actually work.
He was so overwhelmed by the amount of money that he was completely flustered. Even with such a perfect plan, something unexpected still happened. Who would have thought that this strange kid could draw talismans on his body?
He regretted agreeing to draw talismans for them.
Master Hua smiled, clearly in high spirits.
He had no idea that his two apprentices had developed this unique skill of drawing talismans on their bodies without him even noticing.
If he succeeds, not only will he have a better chance of winning the bet, but he will also feel proud.
Under the tense gaze of everyone, Liu Xingchen carefully drew the talisman, but when he made the last stroke, the spiritual power suddenly stopped, and the entire talisman was ruined.
A collective sigh rippled through the audience, with many expressing their regret for them.
Too much money immediately jumped out:
"Haha, I told you it wouldn't work. Fine, you guys just have to accept your fate."
“If you get beaten up, you can admit defeat and everything will be fine.”
"It's just a year's work, it'll be over soon."
Liu Xingchen ignored him, wiped the cinnabar ink off Tie Zhu's body with a towel, and began a new round of drawing talismans.
"Again? I think you won't turn back until you hit a brick wall. I'd like to see what you can draw."
He muttered a few words about how much money he had, then stepped aside to watch.
Unfortunately, this second attempt at drawing the talisman failed again.
Undeterred, Liu Xingchen continued drawing a third time.
I'm quitting because I have too much money.
"Hey, are you ever going to stop? So many people are waiting to watch the betting, who has time to wait for you? You're wasting everyone's time, ask them if they agree or not."
To his surprise, the audience did not comply with his wishes and instead shouted:
"It's okay, we have plenty of time, take your time."
"That's right, there's still a long time before the trade fair tonight. We're all very free, so please take your time drawing, young friend."
“Draw it well. I’ve lived this long and I’ve never seen anyone draw talismans on a person before. Let us see something new.”
The more money someone has, the angrier he gets; it's all contradicting him.
"This is the last time," he said, and sullenly stepped aside.
The third attempt at drawing the talisman finally lived up to the audience's expectations. When Liu Xingchen finished the last stroke, the entire talisman emitted a dazzling light, indicating that the talisman was complete.
The crowd erupted in cheers, people were as happy as if they had drawn a talisman themselves.
This is a rare sight indeed! Drawing talismans on a person's body is something you can brag about to others.
The man with too much money had a face as black as the bottom of a pot, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Tie Zhu chuckled with delight and used his spiritual power to activate the talisman on his chest.
The Vajra Talisman is activated.
Tie Zhu stood shirtless in the center of the arena, waiting for the Mighty Demon Ape to come and fight.
This scene drew cheers from the audience, much to Qian Duoduo's dissatisfaction.
He shouted angrily, "Give this kid a good lesson!"
As if sensing its master's anger, the mighty ape roared to the sky, its voice shaking the entire arena.
Then, it began to approach the iron pillar step by step, each step like a heavy hammer striking the ground, producing a dull sound and giving people an indescribable sense of oppression.
Anyone else would probably have been so intimidated by this aura that their legs would have gone weak.
But Tie Zhu stood firm like a mountain, unmoved, without the slightest fear in his eyes, head held high, waiting for the demonic ape to come and fight.
The gambling match was about to begin, and betting tables had already been set up outside the arena.
People weren't betting on who would win or lose. Even when Tiezhu used the Vajra Talisman, no one believed he would win. No one doubted the outcome anymore.
People were betting that he could withstand a few punches from the demon ape.
Qian Duoduo had already accepted everyone's bets and was just waiting to collect his winnings after the betting match.
He had already planned it all out. He figured the big guy would be defeated in three punches at most, and then he could collect both money and the man, making a fortune.
Compared to Hua Laodao's anxiety, Liu Xingchen was quite calm, as he believed in Tie Zhu's abilities.
rumbling...
The demonic ape finally reached Tie Zhu, raised its enormous fist, and with a whooshing sound, smashed it into Tie Zhu's chest.
