“Why are you standing there like an idiot? If you want to learn to make incense, you must first learn to distinguish incense. Come and smell this incense.” As soon as the beauty spoke, her demeanor instantly changed from gentle to like a queen.
This was the first time she met such a skilled teacher. Those who taught cooking would first tell her which cuisines they were good at, and those who taught sewing would first tell her what they could make. But this white beauty didn’t say anything and let her smell it first.
Was this the style of Level 5 – 99% of the incense masters?
Yi Qingqing walked over obediently.
This incense looked quite normal, at least, it wasn’t joss sticks, but more like proper incense sticks. She felt at ease knowing it wasn’t burned for the dead.
Yi Qingqing went over and sniffed for a while, “It seems to have the smell of cypress and bamboo, and I can’t quite smell the others.”
That’s right, it felt a little similar to the smell of Yun Guyuan.
“Yes, this is bamboo incense. The incense bone is made of bamboo. The incense powder contains cypress bark and a little magnolia. The main spice used is agarwood.” Bai Meiren1美人, Měirén: beautiful woman; belle said.
“What are the effects of bamboo incense?” Yi Qingqing asked.
She didn’t know much about the art of incense, but she knew that different incense had different effects.
Bai Meiren shook her head. “Efficacy? This bamboo incense is a sacred incense. If you want to talk about its efficacy, it is probably used to worship the gods, maybe? Maybe it also has some effect in repelling mosquitoes.”
Yi Qingqing: “…”
It was actually not for human use, and what the hell was the effect of repelling mosquitoes? Was God afraid of mosquitoes?
“I want to learn how to make some incense to use for people. Is that okay? Just start with the simplest ones.” Yi Qingqing said helplessly.
“Okay, you can change to an entry-level incense. In fact, it doesn’t matter what kind of incense you make. The first thing you need to learn is the shape of the incense and then the smell of the incense.”
Bai Meiren was very easy to talk to. She waved her hand and the incense in front of her changed.
“This is a mosquito repellent incense. The materials are simple and easy to get. The main ingredient is mugwort. It is a must-have in summer.”
Yi Qingqing looked at this incense, which was almost the same size as the previous one, but with a slightly different color. She nodded with difficulty.
However, after seeing the mosquitoes simulated in the skill teaching mode all run away in a daze after approaching the fragrance, she said it smelled really good.
Not only did she need it in her house, but she also needed it in the vegetable garden in the backyard.
Bai Meiren also knew many incense recipes. She made a living by making sacrificial incense for the dead, but she was also good at other kinds of incense, even medicinal incense.
There was a book of incense handed down from generation to generation, which recorded many lost ancient incense recipes.
She herself was also very knowledgeable in the art of incense and had made some innovations, creating locust incense. She said that every incense maker should have an incense of her own, and locust incense was what she made for herself.
Not to mention anything else, just this unique fragrance was quite appealing. And those medicinal incense could even cure diseases, and some of them had miraculous effects.
The Level 5 skill was really amazing. Bai Meiren could be called a master of incense. Although she was somewhat unprofessional, with this skill, she could open a funeral shop and deliver incense to the dead.
Even though it was a skill signed in from an unlucky sign-in location, a Level 5 skill was still a Level 5 skill, very powerful!
Moreover, this incense-making master was too good-looking, pleasing to the eye (???)!
She also had to take the remaining sign-in location at the funeral shop, which required 5 sign-in points.
