In the great world of martial arts, you use the Tao of Talisman to rule the ages

Chapter 20 Master’s Test (please follow up)

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

The sun is rising high, and the sky and the earth are so hot that even on the mountain, it feels like you are in a steamer.

After Chen Lin finished his breakfast, he wiped the slight sweat from his forehead, got up and went back to his house on the mountain to continue studying hard.

"I've memorized the basics of Talisman and Sword Techniques. I'll just consolidate my memory next. I have to find something useful to do in the remaining half of the month. I can't waste time on the mountain."

"Today's basic training has been completed. There is no need to continue practicing hard. This body's physical qualifications are too poor and its efficiency is too low."

"So what can we do next to maximize the use of the remaining time?"

Chen Lin lowered his head and pondered.

As soon as I returned to the mountainside, I suddenly heard someone calling me:

"Chen Lin!"

Look up.

It was the "Lao Ba" who was only thirteen years old among the eight apprentices.

The progress of their cultivation was close before, and they were both on the verge of entering the Tao, so they had the best relationship.

However, after entering Taoism, Chen Lin has been focusing on talismans, and it has been a long time since I met him on the mountain.

I don’t know if he has successfully entered Taoism now.

Traces of the wind, frost, and bitter cold can already be seen on the thirteen-year-old boy's face, and there is a special determination in his eyes, which usually look bright and bright.

"Ye Xuan."

Chen Lin nodded and called the boy's name.

The young man walked over quickly, raised his head slightly and asked him: "Have you entered the Tao now?"

"Well, I refined my magic power a few days ago."

There was nothing to hide, Chen Lin nodded generously and admitted.

The boy's body slumped visibly, as if he was a little discouraged: "I haven't been able to break through the bottleneck until now!"

"It's just the last step. Maybe we will have a breakthrough tomorrow."

Chen Lin patted Ye Xuan on the shoulder and went up the mountain with him.

Along the way, I also told him about my previous feelings when I entered Taoism.

He has accumulated the experience of entering the Tao twice, once through a drop of water, and once through a smooth process. The two processes were extremely valuable.

He told the similarities between the two entrances, and Ye Xuan soon showed a thoughtful look.

Seeing the young man frozen in place, his eyes were in trance, as if he was mumbling to himself.

Chen Lin smiled and planned to go back to his room to continue his endorsement.

As a result, a bell suddenly sounded from the top of the mountain.

dong dong!

The bells echoed.

Chen Lin looked up.

"The top of the mountain is the Master's residence. Will the Master continue to teach us?"

Since the last time he passed on the skills, Master Xuanfu has not taught them any more lessons and is usually in seclusion.

This was the call after more than a month.

Ye Xuan behind him was also awakened.

He cast a questioning look.

Chen Lin nodded: "Let's go up together."

The two went up the mountain side by side.

I soon met other people on the way.

First, Li Tao and Sikong Lianyu, a man and a woman, looked at each other.

Ye Xuan glanced at it and muttered something.

Chen Lin turned his attention to the third person behind the pair of dogs...the adulterer and the adulteress.

It was a boy about fourteen years old, huddled at the back, timid.

It was the "Old Seven" who was persuaded by Li Tao not to practice anymore.

Chen Lin still doesn’t know his specific name.

Nodding to him in greeting, he buried his head deeper.

Soon we arrived at the Master's house on the top of the mountain.

Only then did everyone realize that someone had been waiting here for a long time.

There are two figures in total.

One tall and one short, one fat and one thin.

The tall one is fat, the short one is thin.

"You people don't take the Master seriously. The bell has been ringing for so long, and you are just here so slowly!"

"That's it!"

Li Tao smiled generously and took the initiative to talk to the two people. Ye Xuan, who was next to him, whispered: "These brothers are here to watch every day, and they even bring food to eat. I guess the master is annoying them to death when he is in retreat!"

Chen Lin suddenly understood.

This is the "fourth" and "the fifth".

The two were cousins, a natural alliance among the eight, and their qualifications were only lower than those of Li Tao and Sikong Lianyu.

He glanced around and found that there was only one person left.

"How long will Li Mingzhang make Master wait? He won't be unable to enter the Tao forever and run away secretly!"

Sikong Lianyu suddenly shouted.

What she called out was the second child's name.

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sound of thunder from down the mountain road:
  "Baba, shut up!"

The sound is really loud!

Like a tiger roaring in the forest!

Chen Lin watched Li Mingzhang walking up from the mountain. He had a body as solid as an iron tower and a rough face with beards like iron thorns, pierced on his chin and cheeks.

He walked slowly over and stared at Sikong Lianyu with his big eyes: "No matter how big or small you are, how can you scream your father's name?!"

"you!"

Sikong Lianyu's eyes almost bulged out, and she was about to reach out to touch her arms for the talisman.

The door of the room in front of everyone was suddenly blown open gently.

"come in."

The master's calm voice came slowly.

The scene calmed down instantly.

Sikong Lianyu could only restrain his temper.

Li Tao glanced at Li Mingzhang behind him, unable to tell what he meant, and then entered the room first.

Others followed.

Chen Lin wanted to go in, but was pulled away by Ye Xuan, the eighth child.

The young man asked him gently, unable to conceal his shock:

"Chen Lin, it turns out they have a father-daughter relationship?!"

???

……

A small half stick of incense.

Everyone sat down in the quiet room.

The master walked in slowly. He was neatly dressed and meticulous. Although his head was full of gray hair, his face was rosy and he could be described as a childlike face.

"I called you here today to see the results of your cultivation this month."

"Come forward and show me the talisman."

The master's sleeves gently brushed the desk in front of him, and talisman, paper, pens, cinnabar and other objects appeared.

Li Tao was the first to stand up and salute:
  "Master, I come first."

"Ah."

The master nodded and asked Li Tao to step forward and draw the talisman.

The quiet room suddenly became quieter.

Chen Lin turned his head slightly and scanned the expressions of others.

The current scene is very similar to the teacher in the previous life who checked and recited one by one in the classroom...

Regardless of whether they are Taoists or not, everyone can see a bit of anxiety on their faces.

For example, the big man next to him, Li Mingzhang, could scold Sikong Lianyu angrily just now, but now he clenched his teeth unconsciously, obviously feeling nervous.

After a moment.

Li Tao put down his brush.

The Master glanced at it and nodded:
  "Not bad, I have finished drawing the tracing talisman. Keep working hard and go back."

Hearing the familiar words, Chen Lin probed his head.

Sure enough, I saw a charm on the case that I was so familiar with.

He has been using this charm in the martial arts world for a month, and he has to draw several pictures every day.

At this time.

Li Mingzhang stood up next to him, lowered his head and sighed: "Master, my disciple has not yet entered the Tao, so he cannot draw talismans."

The master couldn't see any expression on his face, he just calmly moved his eyes to Chen Lin.

Chen Lin immediately stood up and stepped forward.

Li Tao next to him just sat back down and immediately glanced at Li Mingzhang.

Seeing this person's expression of embarrassment, he couldn't help but smile. He felt really happy...
