Chapter 17: The Gathering Talisman

In the tea room on the second floor of the antique city, Sha Bai was drinking tea, and Ye Ning was reading a newspaper.

Ye Ning held up the newspaper in front of Sha Bai's eyes and let him read it, "Look, the robbery in the antique city the day before yesterday was in the newspaper." The most valuable Song Dynasty calligraphy and painting of "Lin Yunzhai" in the calligraphy and painting city was snatched away, and the proprietress was injured and is still in the hospital. ”

"Well, what a mess. Sha Bai replied casually.

"There's no way, the antique city is full of valuable things, and it must be dangerous. Ye Ning suddenly made a pitiful expression and looked at Sha Bai, "Can you help me?"

"Hmm, what are you going to do?" Sha Bai showed a wary face.

"It's not peaceful now, and my antique shop has to have some security measures. ”

"So what?"

"So, can you come to me and be a security manager? Protect my property, there are millions of jade in this store, and if something happens, I'll have to jump into the river." Ye Ning exaggerated a diving move.

"For the sake of a few million, you Ye landlord will jump into the river?I'm afraid you won't blink your eyes, right?!" Sha Bai pouted.

"Don't think I'm as rich as I think, it's not easy to make money. Ye Ning blinked his eyes and continued his weak expression, "Shabai, I really begged you this time, do you know how much security a fierce man like you, who can fight against Tarzan of the Apes, can bring a weak woman?"

"Tarzan of the Apes?" Sha Bai sneezed.

Thinking of the giant ape's glare at him before jumping off the cliff, Sha Bai couldn't help but shiver.

That's Tan Fei. Although Tan Fei would never be so tall, so strong, and so hairy, Sha Bai could still see from those eyes that it was Tan Fei.

Seeing that Sha Bai was a little hesitant, Ye Ning pursed his lips dissatisfied. "What do you want? Is it so uncomfortable for you to be a security guard? It's been a friendship for almost ten years, and you will ignore me if I am in danger? Even if you only protect me for a while. ”

Sha Bai smiled bitterly: "This kind of robbery only happens occasionally, in fact, you don't have to be so nervous." ”

Ye Ning, who was sitting opposite, immediately glared, looking like he was going to pounce and strangle Sha Bai to death.

Sha Bai looked at the fierce expression of the royal sister and sweated. He hurriedly relaxed, "Shall I help you for half a year temporarily?"

"Oh yes!" Ye Ning raised his fist and jumped up excitedly. "The salary is 8,000 yuan, no bargaining!

Sha Bai sighed. This time I came to Jiangnan City, hoping to get clues about Lin Fei from Tan Fei. But so far, instead of making any progress, things are becoming more and more complicated. According to Shabai's original plan, he was to return to Linhai City and look for a new job. He came to the jade shop today, originally to return the money for Ye Ning's jade plate. Unexpectedly, before he had time to say anything about repaying the money, Ye Ning brought up the matter of security.

Sister Yu is not so easy to refuse. There's no way, let's work as a security guard for half a year first. So Sha Bai became the security manager of the "Gu Yun" jade store.

Three months later, in the evening, in the small courtyard behind the jade market.

Sha Bai put down the pen and lifted up, letting out a long breath.

After using nearly two hundred jade cards to practice, after advancing to a junior spirit disciple, Sha Bai finally made the first Qi Gathering Talisman.

Sha Bai took the spirit gathering talisman in his hand and looked at it carefully. The edges of the jade rune are covered with intricate but soft curves, each curve is like a graceful river, and these long rivers converge in the center of the jade rune, converging into a beautiful lotus flower. Holding the jade talisman in his hand, he could feel that there seemed to be a faint air current, constantly following the long rivers on the edge of the jade talisman and converging into the lotus flower in the center.

To be able to make a jade talisman, I have to thank this job as a security manager.

This job is too leisurely, most of the time every day is to drink tea in the tea room on the second floor, and sometimes I pretend to go around the door of the store, but there is not even a shadow of a thief. Sha Bai even looked forward to a few thieves so that he could do his duty.

After he went to work, Ye Ning decorated the tea room on the second floor and announced that it was his exclusive office, and others could no longer use it. This completely facilitated Shabai, he simply closed the door, and practiced drawing spirit talismans in the tea room with peace of mind, every day from morning to night without interruption, more than three months, today is finally the first time to make a successful talisman.

It took almost a whole day to draw a Gathering Spirit Jade Plaque, and after four days, Sha Bai finally drew four more Gathering Spirit Talismans.

After returning to the small courtyard after work, Sha Bai began to look for a suitable place in the courtyard. According to what Gray Shadow taught, you only need to bury these five-sided jade talismans in the courtyard according to the five directions of the southeast, north, west, and north, and you can gather a certain amount of spiritual energy in this small courtyard.

Sha Bai was looking around for a suitable place when the sound of cars sounded outside the courtyard.

Sha Bai walked out of the door and saw that it was Ye Ning who drove and brought more than a dozen pots of flowers.

"What kind of flower is this?" asked Sandbag curiously, staring curiously at the pot, which was not tall and had two or three pale red flowers. The surrounding leaves are ovate, with a pointed tip and a rounded tail, and the leaves are covered with a network of fine scaly veins, which appear shiny.

"Clematis can purify the air. It smells good in the courtyard, don't you meditate in the courtyard sometimes? ”。 Ye Ning jumped up and spread the flower pots in the yard, and then urged Sha Bai to cook, "Go make dinner, I brought so many flowers, why don't you have to ask for a meal to thank you." ”

Sha Bai and Ye Ning finished dinner and drank tea for a while, and then Ye Ning said that he wanted to watch a TV series.

After watching TV, it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening.

"You're not going back? It's late. Sha Bai glanced at Ye Ning, who was still lying on the sofa and did not move at all.

"What are you doing, drive me away, are you going to draw ghost talismans on those jade plates?" Ye Ning rolled his eyes at Sha Bai.

"How do you know?!" Sha Bai was taken aback.

"If no one knows, he must not do it. Ye Ning shook his head and said, "You paint in the office every day, are you blind when others are blind?"

Shabai was dumbfounded.

He makes talismans in the office every day, and it is inevitable that others will see it, and he deduces that he is practicing the craft of jade carving, which is a hobby, and it seems that he has attracted the attention of others, and he sued the landlord of Ye.

"You're going to draw a talisman for me today! I want to see what you're doing!" Ye Ning added.

"Impossible!" Sha Bai was categorical.

Then the stalemate began.

Sha Bai wanted to meditate, but Ye Ning wouldn't let him sit.

Sha Bai wanted to go to sleep, but Ye Ning didn't let him sleep.

"Anyway, you have to tell me what to do with this on the jade plate, you have to draw it for me!" Ye Ning did not relent. "Don't hide anything important from me!"

Sha Bai suddenly felt that one head was two big.

In the middle of the night, Sha Bai finally surrendered.

He thought about it for a while, and told Ye Ning about spiritual power and gray shadows.

promised Liao Jiang not to talk nonsense to others, and Sha Bai attributed everything about spiritual power to the teaching of Gray Shadow.

Ye Ning was very curious about the gray shadow: "Can I meet him?"

"This," Sha Bai scratched his head, "usually he comes to see me, and I really don't know how to meet him." ”

"Oh, then, bring me the Gathering Talisman. Ye Ning stretched out his hand.

Sha Bai took it out helplessly.

"This jade plaque is so beautiful, you really painted it? If you sell it, it will definitely sell for a lot of money. Ye Ning took the jade plate in his hand and looked at it carefully, and kept sighing.

Sha Bai almost fell, "Please, eldest sister, is this good for gathering aura?

Ye Ning glanced at him and put the jade plaque in his pocket: "This jade plaque is very fond of this girl, and it belongs to me." Anyway, you can draw, just a few more pieces. ”

Sha Bai looked at the jade plate into Ye Ning's pocket, and sighed, he knew that it was impossible for Ping Bai to come back, so he asked tentatively: "Can you give me back this piece today?" Let's try to arrange the Qi Gathering Array. I'll draw a new one for you another day, okay?"

Ye Ning tilted his head and thought about it, then took out the jade card and returned it to Sha Bai.

The bright moon hung in the sky, and Ye Ning and Sha Bai in the courtyard each held a shovel, sneakily like two thieves.

After more than an hour, the two of them dug five deep pits in the courtyard and arranged the five spirit gathering talismans in the four corners of the courtyard and in the middle of the courtyard.

"Is that okay?" Ye Ning asked.

"I guess so, that's what Grey Shadow said. You can gather a certain amount of aura overnight, and you can try it tomorrow, he said that the effect will be very fast. Sha Bai replied.

Ye Ning showed a look of envy, "I also want to cultivate spiritual energy!"

Sha Bai pouted: "Then you have to be taught by a master, who called you?"

Ye Ning glanced at Sha Bai, and suddenly showed a mischievous smile, she walked up to Sha Bai lightly, suddenly hugged Sha Bai's waist, leaned on Sha Bai, leaned on his ear and asked, "Master Sha, you are idle when you are idle, teach me." ”

Sha Bai felt the two softness on the girl's body coming from his chest, and looked at the girl in his arms with silky eyes, and began to breathe a little short.

He worked hard to calm down, then leaned down and said to Ye Ning gently, "I practice this exercise, the master said that there is a taboo, that is, those mature women who are obsessed with lust must not practice, otherwise they will vomit blood and die." ”

Ye Ning raised his left foot and stomped on his white toes.

Yes!... , the miserable cry of the young man Shabai almost woke the entire antique city from their dreams.
