The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 112: Wang Lingguan's Thunder Method Inheritance
In the room, Zhang Jiuyang sat cross-legged.

There were only ten days left in the Hundred Days Pass. He thought he would accomplish it within the first hundred days, but he didn't expect that the visualization diagram gave him a surprise.

Perhaps it was because this "Ghost King" had caused panic among the people of Qingzhou, the number of people praying to gods and Buddhas in Qingzhou increased significantly during this period, and "The Record of the Spiritual Official Conquering the Demons" became completely popular.

In addition to storytellers, there was even a theater that staged a play specifically for Wang Lingguan, hoping to dispel the evil spirits in Qingzhou. Every show was packed and it was hard to get a seat.

In such a hot atmosphere, the visualization picture in his mind actually accumulated enough power of incense and was about to start the second inheritance.

As that vast and powerful consciousness descended, Zhang Jiuyang hurriedly communicated with it and took the initiative to put forward his request.

"Master Lingguan, my disciple Zhang Jiuyang is about to break through the third realm. I hope Master Lingguan can grant me the method of the Heavenly Eye to help me continue to subdue demons and monsters..."

But this time, the visualization picture that always granted prayers fell silent.

After a long time, a consciousness came. There was no sound, but Zhang Jiuyang could understand its meaning.

Not enough incense...

To put it simply, the power of incense accumulated this time is not enough for Him to bestow the inheritance of the Heavenly Eye.

It’s not that Lord Lingguan is stingy, but he seems to have to follow certain rules.

Zhang Jiuyang was not disappointed. If it doesn't work this time, then he will try next time.

The next moment, that consciousness brought down the inheritance, and what surprised Zhang Jiuyang was that this time, there were actually two types of inheritance!

"Five Thunder Talismans!"

"Thunder in the Palm!"

Zhang Jiuyang could hardly suppress his inner excitement.

Thunder method, it’s actually thunder method!

In Taoism, thunder magic is the most important!
Thunder is the command of heaven, which obtains the energy of heaven and earth. According to the Jade Sutra of Thunder of the Supreme Nine Heavens, Jade Purity, Great Brahma, Ziwei, and Mysterious Capital, there are three in the east, two in the south, one in the north, and four in the west. This is the origin of the large numbers, and the center is five.

Therefore, the thunder method is also called the Five Thunders Orthodox Method, which is the innate way. Those who master this method can drive away thunder and lightning, pray for rain and clear weather, cure demons and save ghosts. Its pantheon includes Thunder Ancestor Emperor, Yushuyuan, Five Thundersyuan, Five Thunder Generals, etc., and its strength is very powerful.

Wang Lingguan is the god of thunder, and is revered as the Three-Five Fire Train Thunder God and Taiyi Thunder Sound Yinghua Tianzun.

Jade Pivot Heavenly Fire and Five Thunders Righteous Law are his two great magical powers to subdue demons and monsters.

The thunder magic inheritance that Zhang Jiuyang obtained was the Five Thunder Talismans and Palm Thunder. Although they were not the core principles of thunder magic, they were also two extremely lethal skills.

Thunder magic is the supreme technique and the Five Thunder Talisman is the unique one among all talismans.

This talisman can attract thunder and subdue demons, can be worn to protect the body, and can also be taken internally to ward off evil and eliminate disasters. It can be said to have endless uses.

Zhang Jiuyang considered himself a Taoist priest, but he could not even draw a talisman. Now that he had inherited the Five Thunder Talisman, he had filled the gap in this area.

As for the other palm thunder inheritance, it is the magical power to emit thunder from the palm of the hand. The energy of thunder is contained in the palm. When it is not released, it is nothing. But when it is released, there is a whistling sound, which can shake open the cloud barriers and kill ghosts. It is incredibly powerful.

In "The Investiture of the Gods", Jiang Ziya liked to use palm thunder. In order to make the Pipa spirit show its true form, he put out both hands at the same time, and there was "thunder and lightning, a loud sound, the fire was extinguished and the smoke disappeared", and the Pipa spirit showed its true form.

It can be seen that the power of this palm thunder is quite powerful.

However, this method is quite troublesome to practice, and one needs to cultivate thunder energy first.

Zhang Jiuyang couldn't help but be overjoyed. Master Lingguan was very generous. Although he didn't pass on the Heavenly Eye, he gave him two unique thunder skills in one go, which greatly enhanced his fighting ability.

Ever since he saw Yue Ling perform thunder magic with such earth-shaking power, Zhang Jiuyang has been craving for thunder magic for a long time.

Now he finally got it.

After opening his eyes, he called the housekeeper A Li and ordered, "Go buy some of the best cinnabar, yellow paper, and pine soot ink, and a few top-quality wolf hair brushes. It would be best to use the ones from the tip of a wolf's ear. If you don't have that, you can also choose crane feathers, eagle feathers, or goat hair brushes."

He couldn't help but show off his skills and started drawing talismans.

Naturally, the more Five Thunder Talismans you have in stock, the better. If one is not enough, use two. If two are not enough, use three. There will always be a time when the enemy can't withstand it.

However, the butler gave him a blow on the head.

"Brother Jiu, we have no money!"

Zhang Jiuyang was startled and asked, "How can there be no money? Where was all the gold before?"

He remembered that Mr. Zhou had given him a hundred taels of gold. Adding the money he had earned from fortune-telling in the past, he was more or less a small wealthy man.

Later, he found it troublesome to manage the accounts, so he gave them all to A Li for safekeeping and appointed her as the top housekeeper of the Zhang Mansion. At that time, the little girl was so happy that she jumped up and down, holding the gold and refusing to let go.

Ah Li nodded vigorously and said aggrievedly: "Brother Jiu, you have spent all of it. You spend money so lavishly!"

"It's a waste of money..."

Zhang Jiuyang pinched her wrinkled nose, then shook his head and smiled. He hadn't been troubled by money for a long time and actually forgot how much money he had spent.

Before the battle of Chenjia Village, he bought various poisonous powders and made the statue of Zhong Kui, which was a considerable expense.

In Luotian County, buying covering paper from major coffin shops is another expense.

Adding the daily medicinal food, a hundred taels of gold may seem like a lot, but after lasting until now, there is little left.

The good deeds of the Imperial Observatory could be exchanged for gold and silver, but he had just exchanged them all for materials for refining Yin rice not long ago.

As for the money earned from selling books, it will be paid in March, so the earliest it will be paid is next month, but there are still many days left in this month.

In other words, he, the outer member of the Imperial Observatory, the ninth heavenly stem of the Yellow Springs, the black-robed ghost king who was feared by all in Qingzhou... had no money.

"Is there really nothing left?"

Ah Li covered her belly and shook her head vigorously, "No more, not a single bit!"

Zhang Jiuyang smiled meaningfully, then picked her up by her feet, lifted her upside down, and shook her vigorously.

Crackling!

First, two pink kitchen knives fell from her mouth, and then a copy of Journey to the West written by Zhang Jiuyang, and then various paper figures she had folded, Yin Fu written in black on white paper, and even cooking pots, shovels, and salt...

Zhang Jiuyang found it somewhat amusing.

Did this little girl think she was Doraemon? Why did she put everything in her stomach? What fell out in the end was a bulging purse embroidered with a steamed bun pattern.

Zhang Jiuyang let her go, opened his purse, and found some small change and a considerable amount of copper coins inside.

Sure enough, he secretly hid some.

"Brother Jiu, you can't touch this money!"

Ali tried to get back her own small treasury with her claws and teeth, but Zhang Jiuyang easily held her head down, and her arms and legs could only wave in the air.

"Oh why?"

Ali's head suddenly separated from her neck, and her headless body leaped forward, snatched the purse, and held it in her arms like a treasure, humming.

"This is the money I saved for you to be your wife..."

"It's for Ali to marry a sister-in-law!"

Zhang Jiuyang was startled, and he calmed her head down and pinched her puffy face. The little girl turned her head away fiercely, deliberately not looking at him.

"Brother Jiu, you don't know how hard it is to make money!"

Ah Li said like a little adult: "Recently, someone asked me to do divination through a spirit writing board, so I went over to tell their fortune and charged them a penny afterwards. If they didn't pay, I would show up to scare them!"

The so-called Fuji is a divination ritual, which can be understood as the ancient people's game of writing pens.

Ali is equivalent to the "Pen Fairy" who is invited by those people to tell fortunes.

However, Zhang Jiuyang was somewhat surprised that Little Ali had become famous. After all, a nameless ghost would not be asked to have his fortune told through a planchette.

He felt a little guilty. During this period, he was busy lurking in the underworld and neglected Ali.

"Brother Nine, I said my name is the Great Sage, but they insisted on calling me something else... Little Goddess, humph, humph, I'm not little at all!"

Zhang Jiuyang was stunned, and then burst into laughter.

"Xiaogu" is a dialect in Qingzhou, referring to a very young and somewhat aggressive girl.

"Why is it only one penny?"

He asked with some curiosity.

After all, Ali is a ghost that is about to become a vicious level ghost, and she is in charge of hundreds of soldiers. The divination fee of one penny is really not much.

"Because most of the people who ask me to do divination are children, and one penny is already a lot for them."

Zhang Jiuyang shook his head and said, "Starting tomorrow, we will set up a stall again and continue to do our old business in Qingzhou City."

Ali's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly.

"But you have to lend me some today. I'm in a hurry to draw the talisman."

"Brother Jiu, but..."

"Nine out, thirteen back."

"make a deal!"

……

In the evening, Ali finally returned from shopping.

Zhang Jiuyang carefully sorted out the information about the Five Thunder Talisman in his mind, making sure that there were no omissions. Only after he had memorized it by heart did he open his eyes and pick up the wolf hair brush to prepare to draw the talisman.

Many people think that writing talismans is the privilege of high-level masters. In fact, it is not true. As long as you understand the talisman method, have a righteous heart, clean hands and mouth, use clean items, have a harmonious relationship with your heart and mouth, have the right direction, and do not commit evil deeds, you can write talismans.

Zhang Jiuyang picked up his brush and began to draw the talisman.

A talisman has a talisman head, a talisman body and a talisman tail. The use of the brush is very particular and there must not be any slightest change, otherwise all the previous efforts will be wasted and the talisman will become waste paper.

The most important of these is the talisman.

The so-called talisman orifice refers to the hole that is injected with spirituality when writing a talisman. It is the truest of the trues and the core of the core when drawing a talisman.

The Dao Fa Hui Yuan states: “If you don’t know the secret of drawing talismans, you will only make ghosts and gods laugh; if you know the secret of drawing talismans, you will make ghosts and gods scream.”

Fortunately, with the talisman technique inherited from Master Lingguan, Zhang Jiuyang is already familiar with the Five Thunder Talisman. It seems like he has been drawing it for decades without any deviation.

Soon, a talisman came to an end.

When the last stroke was completed, there was a faint sound of thunder in the sky, and a huge, masculine aura arose spontaneously. This small talisman made Ali feel frightened.

She poked her head out to look at the intricate patterns on it and asked curiously, "Brother Jiu, what kind of talisman did you draw? It looks so powerful!"

Zhang Jiuyang wiped the sweat from his forehead. Not only did he consume about one tenth of his magic power, but he also needed to concentrate fully when drawing the talisman, which was also a huge drain on his spirit.

He gently blew away the cinnabar and pine soot ink on the Five Thunder Talisman and said with a smile, "This is the Five Thunder Talisman. Even though it's only a small one, it can summon the thunder from the sky to help me defeat the enemy!"

Ah Li asked in surprise: "Five Thunder Talisman? But why is there no word for thunder on it?"

Zhang Jiuyang laughed loudly upon hearing this and said, "This is called Thunder Seal, also known as Heavenly Book Thunder Seal. It is not human writing, but the traces left when the thunder strikes the evil spirits or evil people. Do you think it is powerful?"

There are six types of Taoist writing, collectively known as the Six Characters, and Lei Zhuan is one of them.

In addition, there are phoenix seals, dragon seals, cloud seals, etc., which are said to be the characters of gods and contain the power of "Tao", so they can mobilize wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and have all kinds of incredible powers.

Ali opened her mouth wide and stretched out her hand to touch the Five Thunder Talisman, but the next moment she pulled her hand back in pain. Her fingers felt as if they were burned, and even with the nourishment of Yin Qi, it would be difficult to recover for a while.

Thunder magic is extremely powerful and masculine, and has great destructive power against mountain spirits, ghosts, demons, and evil cultivators.

This is because Ali has become a powerful ghost and is one of the best among the evil spirits. If an ordinary ghost encountered this Five Thunder Talisman, it would probably be reduced to ashes in an instant.

"It's a pity that there is no Dutian Great Thunder Fire Seal, otherwise, if I put it on the talisman, the power of the Five Thunder Talisman would be even greater!"

Having said that, Zhang Jiuyang happily put away the Five Thunder Talisman, rested for a while, and continued to pick up the wolf hair brush.

Tonight, let’s set a small goal and draw ten of them!
