Chapter 666: Successful Training, Paper-cutting into Soldiers
"Master, I have memorized them all!" Lin Hao's voice came.
"Puff!" Uncle Jiu spat out a mouthful of tea, seeming to feel that he had lost his composure, and quickly sat up straight and asked.
"Did you really write it down? You know, you can't be careless when it comes to cultivation. You can't make any mistakes!"
He really couldn't believe that in such a short time, in less than an hour, Lin Hao had memorized the entire "Shangqing Dadong Sutra".
"Master, of course I memorized it all!" Lin Hao asked, "Is it difficult to memorize it?"
Uncle Jiu was speechless. He still didn't believe that Lin Hao had memorized the "Shangqing Dadong Sutra". He was not someone who could be easily fooled, so he said:
"Okay, then recite the technique to me!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Hao didn't say much, but recited it word for word from beginning to end in front of Uncle Jiu.
Qiu Sheng and Wencai were dumbfounded by this scene.
"Wow, this, this, this, this~! Could it be that Junior Brother is the reincarnation of a demon? He memorized such a complicated scripture in just one hour!"
Wencai and Qiu Sheng looked at each other, and then they were both dumbfounded. It seemed that this little junior brother would not be so easy to bully in the future.
"It turns out that Qiu Sheng is not the only genius in this world!"
"It seems that Master will focus on Junior Brother from now on. Then we can be free in the future!"
Qiu Sheng was not jealous. Instead, he was very happy, like a poor student who was tired of studying.
"You two, look at your junior brother. Aren't you two ashamed? Why don't you learn from your junior brother!"
There is no harm without comparison. When Uncle Jiu saw Lin Hao's genius and then looked at his two stupid disciples, Qiu Sheng and Wencai, he felt displeased with them.
"Junior brother, are you ashamed?" Qiu Sheng asked Wencai, but Wencai just shook his head stupidly.
"Master, we have no shame!" Qiu Sheng did something reckless, and the master would definitely be very happy.
"You two are going to piss me off to death!" Uncle Jiu simply picked up the cane and started chasing after them.
To be honest, Lin Hao was quite envious of the relationship between them as master and disciple. Unfortunately, he was not a funny person after all, so he couldn't fit in.
In short, just do your best and don't force yourself to imitate others.
Afterwards, Uncle Jiu began to teach Lin Hao, explaining the "Shangqing Dadong Sutra" in detail to him and teaching him some Taoist secrets.
Afterwards, Lin Hao practiced under the guidance of Uncle Jiu. However, he was extremely clumsy when practicing the techniques and was unable to perform them successfully. This was completely different from the previous breathing method and the difficulty was completely different.
In this case, don't blame me for cheating, so after Lin Hao finished his work, he said to Uncle Jiu:
"Master, I just don't seem to be getting the point, how about you show me how to do it?"
Uncle Jiu didn't think much after hearing this, and immediately led Lin Hao to practice the technique. Lin Hao also took the opportunity when Uncle Jiu started practicing the technique to quickly use the solidification skill.
"System, solidify the extraordinary ability used by Uncle Nine!"
Ding: "Skills are solidifying!"
"Congratulations on obtaining the universal skill: The Great Cavern Scripture of Shangqing!"
Ding: The Shangqing Dadong Sutra and the Basic Breathing Technique are of the same origin. The Basic Breathing Technique is a simplified version of the Shangqing Dadong Sutra, and therefore it has been replaced by the Shangqing Dadong Sutra!
Shangqing Dadong Sutra: Through this practice, you can develop your own meridians, quickly absorb external energy, and convert it into mana storage, driving various Taoist techniques and spells!
Special note: Long-term practice of this technique can enhance the host's mental strength to gain additional attribute points, improve the host's physique to gain additional attribute points, and have a slight amplifying effect on agility and strength.
"I'm rich!" Practicing "Shangqing Dadong Sutra" for a long time can actually increase additional attribute points of mental strength and physical fitness!
Big profit! This was Lin Hao's first reaction, but Lin Hao quickly calmed down and looked at another key word, long-term operation of the technique?
For this long-term practice, how long is considered long-term?
Also, "Basic Breathing Technique" is actually a simplified version of "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing". Are other Maoshan exercises also simplified versions of "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing"?
There are too many questions and many things that need to be explored, but Lin Hao has to calm down and wait until he has time to study them slowly.
Then Lin Hao directly ran the "Shangqing Dadong Sutra" through the system. After a while, a pure magic power was born from the meridians.
"As expected, he is worthy of the qualification of building a foundation in 100 days!" Uncle Jiu thought with emotion. He just practiced the exercises and Lin Hao quickly learned and developed magic power.
At this moment, Uncle Jiu secretly felt that it was a pity. If he had known that Lin Hao had such extraordinary talent, he should have accepted Lin Hao as his disciple and taught him the "Shangqing Dadong Sutra".
"Alas, it's a pity that the book I passed to you yesterday was not the Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing, otherwise the results you achieved in your first meditation would definitely be much greater than the basic breathing technique."
Uncle Jiu felt it was such a pity and felt quite guilty.
Lin Hao heard this and said, "Master, you don't have to be like this. As the saying goes, no gold is pure, and no one is perfect. This may be the arrangement of fate!"
"Why do you have to be so fussy about such trivial matters?" Lin Hao said comfortingly.
Uncle Jiu was not the kind of person who complained about himself. After Lin Hao comforted him, he quickly got rid of the feeling of pity and had a higher opinion of Lin Hao in his heart.
If he were a narrow-minded person, he would definitely be dissatisfied, but Lin Hao comforted him instead, which shows Lin Hao's character.
Just kidding, Lin Hao has experienced so many worlds and his character is so strong. Although he is still cautious, he is not the kind of person who is never satisfied.
When we were practicing the exercises until four o'clock in the afternoon, Uncle Jiu started to chase people away.
"Okay, you've been at the charity cemetery for two days now, and you still have work to do with the security team. You don't need to stay at the charity cemetery today. Go back with your senior brother Qiu Sheng later!"
"Okay, Master!" Although he didn't go back to the security team the whole day, Lin Hao was not worried because he had already made arrangements for the security team.
······
In this way, after Lin Hao finished his official duties in the town every day, he would come to Uncle Jiu's charity cemetery to practice. It was not until Uncle Jiu was sure that he could practice on his own that Lin Hao began to practice magic.
The first thing he practiced was the art of cutting paper into weapons. Lin Hao felt that this spell was very interesting.
Lin Hao took a piece of talisman paper from Uncle Jiu's desk, picked up a pair of scissors, and with a few clicks, it turned into a paper man, which he then used magic power to drive.
Seeing the paper man jumping around and exploring everywhere, Lin Hao thought this thing was very interesting. He then drove the paper man to squeeze through the crack in the door and enter the hall full of coffins.
After it was out of his sight, Lin Hao focused his attention on the paper man, then looked around, and occasionally moved some paper. Unfortunately, it was only limited to thin paper, and he could not move other heavier things.
After operating for a while, Lin Hao summarized the uses of the paper man.
This thing is like a camera. It can be used to eavesdrop on intelligence or explore terrain. It is absolutely useful!
If that were all, then there would be nothing special about this paper-cutting technique of making weapons. However, since Uncle Jiu described it as an unorthodox technique, there must be another reason.
It turns out that it was an unknown Taoist senior who combined the normal paper-cutting technique with the Five Ghosts Moving Technique and improved it into the Paper-Cutting Weaponry Technique, which was naturally classified as a unorthodox technique.
The improved paper-cutting technique is actually driven by capturing the souls of animals. For example, capturing the soul of a dog and giving it to a paper dog for driving, or capturing the soul of a cow to drive a paper cow.
So is it possible to drive paper soldiers by giving them souls?
"Hmm~!" Lin Hao swallowed his saliva. It turned out that he also had the potential to do evil. After Lin Hao got the art of cutting paper into soldiers, his first reaction was to use it in war, using paper soldiers to fight.
Fortunately, Lin Hao is not an evil person, and the Taoist senior did not improve it into an evil magic.
But, I'm really curious!
He suppressed this evil thought, picked up the talisman paper again, folded it into the shape of a horse, then injected the soul of a horse into it, and then used magic power to activate it.
Then he threw it to the ground, and it turned into a tall horse with a high-bridge saddle and a red rope bridle. It was very gorgeous, and Qiu Sheng and Wencai were stunned by the sight.
The two men immediately went forward excitedly to check it out, and found that the horse looked just like the real thing, except that there was not much steam coming out of its nasal cavity.
If someone gets closer and looks carefully, they will find that this horse is just a bare, empty paper horse.
"Master, it turns out that this secretary who can make soldiers out of paper is so powerful! Didn't you say before that this was just an unorthodox technique?"
Qiu Sheng, who was standing by, started yelling:
"Turning into a horse out of thin air, it seems we don't have to walk to the town to buy rice in the future!" Wencai thought about his daily life and finally freed his feet.
Uncle Jiu shook his head and said, "If you two had the same talent as your junior brother and could work as hard as him, you could do it too!"
In fact, Uncle Jiu was also quite curious about how quickly Lin Hao mastered the technique. Not even he could master the art of making weapons out of paper to such perfection.
"Ahem, you've done a pretty good job of making soldiers out of paper, but it's just an unorthodox path after all. The fundamental way to practice the great path is to follow the Great Cavern Sutra! Don't be fooled by these external things and go astray!"
"Yes, disciple will keep it in mind!" Uncle Jiu was warning himself not to use paper-cutting military tactics to do evil.
Although he felt that Uncle Jiu was just trying to save face, Lin Hao also felt the concern of the novice village chief.
"Junior brother, can you please make a paper horse for me? Otherwise, my bicycle won't be able to keep up with your speed!"
Qiu Sheng was filled with envy and ran over to talk to Lin Hao with shining eyes, but what he was thinking in his heart was that riding such a majestic BMW, he was the most handsome guy in Renjia Town.
What a pity, Lin Hao shook his head and said.
"Brother, with my current magical power, I can only conjure up one horse, and I have to keep injecting magical power into it, otherwise it will dissipate quickly!"
"Oh, so that's it. Then junior brother, please conjure up a horse for me next time!" Although Qiu Sheng was disappointed, he also understood.
After all, Lin Hao had only been practicing for a few days, so he definitely didn't have much mana stored.
However, what Qiu Sheng didn't know was that after this period of practice, Lin Hao was only one step away from the realm of a human master.
It's not that Lin Hao is selfish and only cares about his own enjoyment. Lin Haozhi gave Qiu Sheng a paper horse. Once this loophole is opened, it will be bad if people become greedy.
It can be imagined that Lin Hao must be annoyed to death with Qiu Sheng pestering him to help fold paper horses every day.
Then Lin Hao climbed onto the horse, said goodbye to Uncle Jiu and Qiu Sheng Wencai, and rode the paper horse to Renjia Town.
"Alas, the limelight has been stolen by my junior brother!" Qiu Sheng sighed as he watched Lin Hao galloping away on his horse.
I can only ride my bicycle with a squeaking sound and collect dust behind others.
"The captain is back!" As soon as he returned to the security team's office, soldiers saw him from a distance.
"Captain, where did you get this tall horse? It looks so majestic!"
You know what, if you don’t look closely, you really can’t tell it’s a lifelike paper horse. Even the security team didn’t recognize it.
Just now when passing by Renjia Town, he shocked everyone on the street, and they looked at Lin Hao with awe and envy.
"What are you all doing here? Don't you have anything to do?"
As soon as Lin Hao arrived at the gate of the yamen, he saw the security team members crowded at the door looking in, and immediately frowned.
"Captain, you are finally back. Let me help you lead the horse!"
Relying on his familiarity with Lin Hao, Ah Fang flattered him shamelessly. He looked at the majestic tall horse and prepared to lead it.
Just like people in later generations, when they see their acquaintances buy a limited edition luxury car worth tens of millions, they can’t help but go up and touch it.
"No need!" Lin Hao waved his hand, and the majestic figure turned into a palm-sized paper horse and fell back into Lin Hao's palm.
This is the paper horse he carefully made. As long as it is not damaged by water or fire, it can be reused.
Over time, as his magic power continued to be nurtured and refined, it could more or less be considered a magic weapon.
After a long time, maybe even some spirituality will emerge.
When the security guards saw the tall horse turned into a thin paper horse, they knew it was a Taoist magic.
After all, it was no secret among the security team that Lin Hao was learning Taoism from Uncle Jiu in the charity cemetery.
"Congratulations, Captain, you have returned from studying Taoism! You are so charming and suave, you have accomplished both literary and martial virtues, and you have unified Renjia Town!"
Ah Fang's eyes lit up, and he suddenly wanted to use all the nice words he knew to flatter the boss.
"Go away, what a mess! I wasn't here these few days, have you guys trained seriously?"
Lin Hao didn't care about their lame flattery and was directly concerned about the training results of this team.
After all, they are our team in this world, so we can’t be too incompetent.
"Don't worry, captain. Now everyone knows how to form the array and formation. As for our shooting skills, we can hit the target with every shot, not to mention hitting the target from a hundred paces away!" A Jiang said proudly.
During this period, the security team of Renjia Town walked side by side on the streets. Their imposing appearance received rave reviews from the residents of Renjia Town.
Lin Hao nodded. It was already very good that he could hit the target with every shot. If he could fight in actual combat one or two more times, he would be considered an elite unit.
"Okay, everyone, go away and get busy with your own things!" He was too lazy to talk nonsense with these team members and just dismissed them.
These team members knew that Lin Hao had now achieved great success in Taoism, so they dared not disobey him, and they looked at him with even more awe.
After all, this is an age full of zombies and ghosts, and Lin Hao has excellent martial arts skills. Now he has learned Taoism. From now on, Renjia Town will be able to do whatever it wants.
The next morning, when Lin Hao was about to go to the charity cemetery to continue learning Taoism from his uncle Jiu, Ren Fa sent someone to invite him.
