Industrial Cultivation

Chapter 188: Selfie

Views:

Ever since he found out Xiaohua's true identity, Sibao has been in a depressed mood.

Zhu Changyang knew that she was reluctant to leave Xiaohua, so he solved the problem with Su Jiao and took the opportunity to make a camera while Li Ying was setting up the party venue.

The working principle of traditional film cameras is very simple. In fact, it is to use optical characteristics. The structure only has lenses, dark boxes and photosensitive materials. The lens is equivalent to a convex lens, which focuses the light reflected by the object on the film, and then the film can be washed out.

In order to facilitate use, Zhu Changyang directly made a Polaroid camera.

Polaroid is a one-time imaging device that uses machine-loaded film and comes with transfer and crushing kits.

A pair of stainless steel rollers are installed inside the camera. After shooting, the film comes out from the middle of the rollers and is immediately produced after being rolled.

However, the photos taken by Polaroid cameras generally have poor accuracy and tend to turn yellow and fade.

To this end, Zhu Changyang added spiritual materials such as mermaid tears that can fix colors and display images into the photosensitive agent to solve these shortcomings.

As expected, when Sibao saw the image on the "paper", he couldn't take his eyes away, "Is this a drawing?!"

Venerable Lihua leaned his cat head over to take a look, and couldn't help but meow, stretching out his claws to scratch the photo.

It moved rashly and accidentally sent the photo flying, causing Sibao to scream "Ah!" again.

"Meow!" Venerable Lihua jumped up quickly and chased after the piece of paper.

Jiufang Ruo shook his head helplessly, raised his hand and took the piece of paper in his hand: "You are so reckless all day long..."

Before he finished speaking, he paused, a look of surprise in his eyes, "Ah, this?"

Without waiting to ask, Li Ying, who came to deliver the grilled fish, took a deep breath and said, "Oh no, Sibao and Xiaohua have been captured in the painting—"

Jiufang Ruo: “…”

He picked up the junior brother who rushed towards him and said calmly, "What nonsense are you talking about? Xiaohua is here."

Li Ying looked at the piece of paper, then looked at the Lihua Reverend who was still jumping around on his senior brother's lap, "Huh?"

When the others saw this, they were all very curious and came closer, showing the same shocked expression as Li Ying.

"How, how is this done?"

"It looks like the Mirror Flower and Water Moon Technique, but the Mirror Water Technique is not that clear."

When the immortal master reaches a high level and transcends the calamity to ascend to heaven, his image will briefly remain in the movie of lightning, in the clouds and mist.

Some monks were inspired by this and used the blue sky as a mirror and the clouds as a medium. They developed a magic spell that could record fleeting glimpses of things, which was called the art of mirror flowers and water moons.

This kind of magic is not easy to practice and requires a lot of cultivation. The shadow left behind is often hazy and can only last for a very short time before quickly dissipating, so few people practice it.

"This is not magic." Zhu Changyang said with a smile, "It's just a light and shadow technique."

He raised the Polaroid camera in his hand and pressed the shutter button towards everyone. Soon, another photo popped out from the bottom of the camera. "Here."

He said it lightly, but everyone's eyes widened when they saw the image on the paper.

"Ah, how come we are on the paper too?!"

"It's amazing that it can reproduce my appearance exactly."

It's not just their appearance, but also the surrounding background - the table, the food, the barbecue grill next to them, and the eaves and colorful lights behind them.

Every object is vividly reproduced on the "paper".

Since ancient times, everything in the world has been like a passing cloud, fleeting.

Therefore, people study brushes and ink carefully and practice painting diligently just to capture the illusion of a moment. However, no matter how refined the brushwork is, there will always be a difference between it and reality.

And those who are good at painting are even fewer.

Afterwards, countless cultivators placed this thought on immortal arts, but were limited by the realm of their skills. They were always like flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water, and could hardly achieve the eternal path.

The "camera" made by Zhu Changyang does not require any profound Taoist techniques. With just a light press, it can preserve the scenes of the human world.

Although everyone present had seen many of Zhu Changyang's creations, they were still amazed at this moment and were eager to try.

Jiufang Ruo took a step forward and said, "Can you let me have a try?"

Dong Yaoyan refused to accept: "I want one too."

The others followed suit and raised their hands silently.

"Don't worry, everyone." Zhu Changyang was well prepared and took out a thick stack of "papers" from his pocket. "There are plenty of photos. I guarantee everyone will have a chance to experience it."

Jiufang Ruo nodded: "All is up to you."

Dong Yaoyan made an OK gesture: "Okay."

Thus, under the coordination of Zhu Changyang, these big names who were famous outside lined up in a rare and polite manner and took turns to experience taking photos.

Ranked first is Jiufang Ruo.

He took the camera, learned how to use it, and then pointed the lens at Reverend Lihua without hesitation.

Studio:

[Master... don't love me too much! ]

[He even squatted down! What a standard mage posture! ]

[To be honest, I thought Chang Yang would make a camera, but I never thought I would see the leader of a cult taking pictures of cats... ]

"Why is he the first to experience it?" Jun Shu crossed his arms, looked at someone who had just finished explaining how to use the camera, and complained in a low voice, "What about me?"

The developer squatted on his shoulder and shouted in solidarity: "Meow meow meow!"

And I!

"Got it." Zhu Changyang shook his head with amusement.

It must be said that although Jun Ge is still overbearing, his temper has improved.

He just complained and didn't try to cut in line.

Then he took out another Polaroid camera from his pocket and said, "Here, I made one just for you."

Jun Shu's eyes lit up, he took the camera reservedly, and nodded with satisfaction: "This is pretty good."

Zhu Changyang coughed lightly and took out another photo, "And this one."

"Hmm?" Jun Shu took it and looked at it, and was stunned.

This is his photo.

It was a snapshot of him just drawing his sword to save Qiao Muxing.

"This is the first photo taken after the camera was made." Zhu Changyang raised his eyebrows at him, "It's very memorable."

Jun Shu couldn't help but raise his lips: "I knew..."

Before he could finish his words, the cat on his shoulder suddenly pawed at the air, meowing and cursing: "Meow meow meow!!"

Xuan Yang leaned over and translated, "It said the first photo was of Daddy, so why is the second photo not of it but that stupid cat?"

Zhu Changyang: “…”

As expected of a cat raised by Jun Shu, it has the domineering nature from beginning to end.

"Where!" He wiped his face and pointed to a spot in the photo. "You're in the first photo too. Look, here."

"Meow?" The developer Tan looked suspicious and leaned over to take a closer look. Sure enough, he found a pair of round green eyes in the corner at Jun Shu's feet.

That’s right, because it is too dark, its body blends in with the black background of the Demon Palace, and it is really not easy to spot at first glance.

The developer was very satisfied, his big eyes curved into a crescent shape, "Meow~"

He screamed and opened his mouth wide, ready to swallow the photo.

"Go away!" Jun Shu quickly took the photo back, "This is mine."

The developer had no choice but to shut his mouth in grievance: "Woo!"

Zhu Changyang was very confused.

It was hard to say who was more childish.

Just as he was speechless, Jun Shu suddenly reached out and put his arm around his waist, picked up the developer with his other hand, and leaped to the dome of the hall.

Zhu Changyang:

Without waiting for a response, he was forced to sit down.

Jun Shu pointed the Polaroid camera at him: "If we take pictures here, there won't be any messy people getting in the way."

Zhu Changyang: “…”

My brother knows how to frame a scene.

Jun took two photos, studied the finished film, and when he felt it was almost done, he stuffed the camera into the developer's hands and said, "You, take a photo of me and Chang Yang."

Zhu Changyang:

Developer:

Studio:

[? ? Brother Mozhong, please be a human being! I’m just a little kitten! ]

[This is too much! The leader over there is patting the cat, and the demon over here is letting the cat pat itself! What kind of suffering is this?! ]

Developer Tan's face was blank, holding the Polaroid camera, at a loss: "Meow meow?"

"How can you embarrass a cat like this?" Zhu Changyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He took back the camera with one hand and lifted the developer onto his lap with the other hand. "It can't even hold the camera."

"Okay." Jun Shu could only give up and wrinkled his nose, "Then wait a moment, I'll go downstairs and grab someone at random..."

"No need." Zhu Changyang hurriedly stopped him, then turned the Polaroid camera over and held it in front of the two of them, "We can take a selfie. Come, look at the camera."

Jun Shu looked over subconsciously.

With a "click", a photo slowly came out, which was a close-up photo of the two of them.

Jun Shu suddenly realized what was going on and immediately moved closer to Zhu Changyang, "Another one!"

After thinking for a while, he still felt it was not enough, so he grabbed the black cat's two front legs, held the cat to his chest, and rested his chin on the cat's head, "shoot like this."

Zhu Changyang: “…”

Brother Jun’s learning ability in this area is always so outstanding!

He sweated a little and pressed the shutter button silently.

Just at this moment, a shadow flashed by, "Masters, I have something to ask..."

There was a "click" sound and the flash went off, just in time to capture the person who suddenly appeared.

"… "

Zhu Changyang and Jun Shu slowly turned their heads and looked at the uninvited guest in confusion.

Jiufang Ruo was choked on the spot. He hugged Reverend Lihua and stared at the two of them silently, coughed dryly, and said, "Sorry to bother you."

The camera just happened to spit out a photo, and on the screen, three people and two cats were all captured.

However, there is an obvious gap between the one person and the calico cat next to them and the two people and the black cat in the middle, which makes them look a bit disharmonious.

"Meow!" Reverend Lihua was overjoyed and immediately stretched out his claws to scratch, "Meow meow!"

Jiufang Ruo quickly held down the cat's paw: "Junior brother, how many times have I told you not to lose manners in front of others."

"It's okay." Zhu Changyang took out the photo and handed it over. "It's just a photo. You can take another one if you like it."

I guess Jun Shu and the developer don’t want such a poor composition.

Venerable Lihua raised his head and looked at his senior brother intently.

"Then take it." Jiufang Ruo had no choice but to let go of the cat's claws, and reminded, "Pay attention to etiquette."

Venerable Lihua has always been domineering in the religion and doesn't care about etiquette at all.

Facing the developer's family of three at this moment, he was surprisingly a little shy. After a while, he clumsily raised his two front paws, put them in front of his chest, and bowed.

Jiufang Ruo was delighted when he saw this, and couldn't hide his excitement as he held the cat's paw: "Junior brother, you have improved!"

Zhu Changyang: “…”

Aren’t the leader’s requirements too low
