Elder Fu didn't care what he was thinking. He pulled him to the front, stood aside, took out a few low-level talisman papers and placed them on the table. He said seriously, "Come, show me these paintings again."
There was an imperceptible tremor in his voice.
If this child is really talented, then he will take him as his personal disciple. Even if he dies in the future, he will not feel any regrets.
Jiang Sheng picked up the talisman paper and looked at it carefully, especially every stroke of the talisman was clearly imprinted in his mind. He took a deep breath, picked up the cinnabar pen, and began to draw on the talisman paper.
The moment he put pen to paper, the fluctuation of spiritual power was palpable. Everyone unconsciously held their breath and stared intently, as if trying to see something. Soon, the spiritual power disappeared after the stroke of the pen was finished.
A familiar rumbling sound was heard, and everyone stared with their mouths open.
This... This is right in front of them, and they can draw it just by looking at it. Then what are they? They are useless. Why can't they be taught?
Elder Fu looked at the top-grade gravity talisman and gasped, "This is really your first time drawing a talisman. Has anyone taught you how to draw talismans before? This is incredible, truly incredible."
Jiang Sheng shook his head: "I haven't learned to draw talismans, but I have learned to paint. Aren't these two the same thing? The only difference is that one is painted on rice paper, and the other is painted on talisman paper."
Everyone: ...What he said makes me angry. Why do you want to beat him to death? You are so jealous. It makes me so jealous.
"Come, continue drawing other talismans."
After an incense stick of time, several top-grade talismans were placed on the table. Elder Fu looked at the top-grade talismans with a complicated look, and then looked at Youkong who looked like nothing had happened, and his eyes became even more complicated.
"Don't you feel tired? Do you feel like your spiritual energy is not enough? How can it be so easy to draw?"
"Come on, try a more difficult talisman, the Heavenly Thunder Talisman."
Jiang Sheng looked at the talisman with an obviously complex pattern, hesitated for a moment, then picked up a pen and started drawing. This time, there was no rumbling thunder.
Elder Fu looked at the intermediate-level Heavenly Thunder Talisman and suddenly laughed crazily: "Haha, God has not abandoned me. Finally, I have been blessed with a good seedling. I don't have to face those idiots every day anymore."
Everyone: ...Idiot, you are talking about them!
Jiang Sheng was patted on the shoulder several times. He looked at the old man with a somewhat crazy expression, and his mouth twitched. He said seriously: "I don't want to be a true disciple. Can I still learn to draw talismans?"
When Elder Fu heard this, his laughter stopped abruptly.
She looked at him in shock. "What? What did you just say? Why don't you want to be my personal disciple? Do you know how safe it is to be a talisman master? You are respected and don't have to go on missions."
"I know, but I still don't like being bound. I just want to be able to attend classes like them and learn some talismans."
How could he possibly recognize someone from the temple as his master? What is a master? It is for life. You can't just recognize anyone. A master is more important than your biological father.
Besides, he would be leaving in the future and was destined to be a mortal enemy of the temple. He didn't want to get involved too much with the people here, lest he would not have the heart to kill people in the future.
Elder Fu asked in confusion, "Why?"
Jiang Sheng said calmly, "Because I still want to learn alchemy. I'm interested in both talisman alchemy and talisman alchemy, but I don't want to be trapped in one place. It's that simple."
"Alchemy? It's difficult for one person to learn just one. You'd be crazy to learn two. You might not be able to master either. Every profession has its specializations, and your talent lies in drawing talismans."
"Even if you don't want to be my true disciple, there's no need to be so desperate as to learn alchemy. You know how dangerous alchemy is. If you're not careful and the furnace explodes, it can be fatal."
Jiang Sheng nodded: "I understand, but I still want to go and make the elixir. I have to try it to know if it works. If I become a true disciple, I can't make the elixir anymore."
If you don't want to be a true disciple, you can go anywhere as long as you are interested. As for how much you learn, it depends on your own ability.
He really wanted to know what alchemy was that the emperor was obsessed with. As for the talisman paper, it looked simple enough. Comparing the two, he wanted to learn alchemy more.
Elder Fu's face darkened upon seeing this, and he said unhappily, "Then you better think carefully. If you miss this opportunity, and you fail to refine pills in the future, you won't be able to come back and become my personal disciple."
Jiang Sheng hummed and said seriously, "I know. Thank you for the reminder, Elder."
"You...are so stubborn and stubborn, wasting your talent in vain, humph!"
After saying that, he shook his sleeves and sat on the chair, glaring: "Why don't you go back and sit down? If you don't want to be one, then don't be one. You really think I'm precious."
He has been in the temple for so long, but this is the first time he has been treated so humiliatingly. There were so many people vying to be his true disciple, but he just turned them down. Now he finally meets someone he likes, but the other person is still unwilling to accept him.
Ahhh, my heart feels so choked up just thinking about it.
Jiang Sheng stood up and walked to the back calmly, sat down at the table in the corner, holding a book in his hands and reading it seriously, not being affected at all.
The others had complicated expressions and didn't know what to say.
Soon the class ended, and Elder Kong followed behind Jiang Sheng. The two looked at the people chasing them, quickened their pace and left, their backs looking a little panicked.
"Huhu, sir, Elder Fu is considered to be one of the best-tempered elders, and he doesn't have any personal disciples. Why don't you agree to his request?"
"If you accept Elder Fu as your master, no one in the temple will dare to make things difficult for you in the future. You can walk sideways. Even though you are an elder now, there are differences between elders."
"Elder Fu, Elder Dan, Elder Zhenfa, and Elder Gu, the status of these four elders far exceeds that of the other elders. No one dares to provoke them."
After listening to him, Jiang Sheng said calmly, "No reason. Becoming a disciple is not such a casual thing. I just draw talismans casually. I really don't think I need to become a disciple."
"Okay, let's go back and have dinner. I'm going to the library this afternoon. You can plant flowers and plants in the yard. You don't have to stay by my side."
Elder Kong quickly stopped talking and said tremblingly, "Yes, I was too talkative. My Lord must have his reasons for doing this. I will definitely not say much in the future."
Jiang Sheng nodded, went back to the hall to eat something, closed the door, and slipped into the bamboo house to take a nap. Half an hour passed in the outside world during this sleep.
After coming out, he went to the library with ease. With the elder's token, he could go to the ninth floor this time. As expected, the higher he went, the more precious books he found.
He found a complete collection of talismans, squatted down, took out a blank book, and began to copy it carefully. It would be good if he could bring something back, otherwise the Central Plains would really be suppressed by the temple.
Everything here is like another country. The Central Plains is like a child in front of them. Now that the Temple has taken action against the Central Plains, it is impossible to expect them to let the Central Plains go.
Instead of being bullied passively, it is better to take the initiative to learn more.
