Chapter 70: Secret Investigation
Sun Yi'an naturally didn't know that he just bought some materials, and he attracted the secret snooping of people with intentions.
After returning to C16, he once again devoted himself to the great cause of talisman making.
However, the middle-level runes are much more difficult to depict than the low-level runes, and the success rate is only five or five open. In addition, although the Yinhao pen belonged to the category of top-level spiritual weapons, it was somewhat difficult to deal with the middle-level talismans.
Rao is like this, if other talisman makers learn that Sun Yi'an has such a high success rate in less than a year since he started learning talismans, I am afraid that he will have to find a piece of tofu and kill him.
Another few months passed, Sun Yi'an consumed all the talisman materials he had purchased, and there were more than thirty more middle-level talismans in his hand, he kept a few of the ones he was most satisfied with separately for his own use, sorted out the rest together, and slowly walked down the mountain.
However, today, he had restored his cultivation to the level of the late stage of Qi refining.
Because of the proximity to the ceremony, there are more monks in the Hidden Dragon City at this time, perhaps in order to alleviate the problem of insufficient stalls, or perhaps the organizers take the opportunity to make money.
Originally, no matter what kind of cultivation he did, a stall was ten spirit stones, but now he needs twenty spirit stones in the middle stage of Qi refining, and the monks in the late stage of Qi refining still only need ten pieces.
Sun Yi'an had already had enough of the hardships of not having spirit stones, if he could have thousands of spirit stones when he crossed the Jinyang Mountain Range back then, he would not have been blocked from the Divine Punishment Ridge for several months.
Therefore, for each spirit stone, he was eager to break it in half and use it.
Moreover, now with the late-stage cultivation of Qi cultivation that he revealed, the mass of monks who were mixed with tens of thousands of people was not at all inconspicuous, after all, there were even one or two hundred monks in the foundation building period.
However, the talisman he took out today was not very easy to sell. It's not because the talisman is not good, but the price of the mid-level talisman is still too high for a Qi refining stage cultivator. There is no shortage of talismans among the disciples of the great sects who can really afford the spirit stones, but the ordinary Qi refining stage cultivators and casual cultivators cannot take out enough spirit stones.
Then there is the grand Wanbao Conference, before which all the monks have to use their experience carefully so as not to consume the spirit stones in advance. At that time, when you encounter the treasures you really need, you will not have spirit stones to buy.
After guarding the stall for half an hour before selling three talismans, Sun Yi'an shook his head, put away the stall and walked towards the west of the city again.
Today's Po Wah Street is obviously much busier than the last time he came.
When Sun Yi'an entered the Duobao Pavilion, there was another foundation building in the store, and two Qi Refining Stage cultivators were inspecting all kinds of treasures and materials accompanied by Xiao Xiao's courtesy.
As soon as he saw Sun Yi'an come in, a little guy immediately came to greet him, but before the little guy could speak, the middle-aged man in the brocade robe who received Sun Yi'an last time stopped him.
"You stand down, this fellow Daoist will be personally received!"
"Yes, Pavilion Master!"
The little guy respectfully received the order.
Sun Yi was slightly surprised, but saw the middle-aged man greet him with a slight smile.
"Hehe~ Thanks to Daoyou for coming to this pavilion again, it's noisy here, why don't Daoyou go upstairs with me and talk about it?"
"Then there is Senior Lao."
Sun Yi'an glanced at the store, nodded and agreed.
Although it costs money to do anything in this Hidden Dragon City, there is no need to worry too much about safety, after all, there are four late-stage monks in it, and anyone who wants to break the ban with their strength must first weigh whether they have the ability.
The decoration on the second floor is quite elegant, and on the two Bogu shelves on the left and right, there are some top-level spiritual weapons and medicine jade boxes and other items placed in a staggered manner, which are not ordinary things for Qi refining period cultivators.
Directly opposite the entrance, four carved chairs of extremely elaborate workmanship sit side by side, separated by a small coffee table of equal elaboration.
"Hehe~ I don't know if you come to this pavilion this time, do you still want to buy talisman materials?"
The middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"Yes, I really need to buy some materials for refining talismans, but this time I didn't bring too many spirit stones with me, but I was going to exchange them."
Sun Yi'an nodded slightly.
"Oh? I don't know what you plan to exchange for the talisman materials of this pavilion? Can you give me a look at it first? ”
The middle-aged man looked at Sun Yi'an with interest.
Sun Yi'an smiled slightly, raised his hand and took out a stack of middle-level talismans that had been prepared a long time ago, and took out one of them at random and handed it to the middle-aged man.
"Oh, as expected, it was really good, but I didn't expect Daoyou to be really a talisman maker. Presumably, these talismans were carved by Daoyou with the materials you bought last time, right? ”
"Hehe, this little skill of carving insects is not enough to worry about, I don't know how many spirit stones can be worth in this kind of talisman in the next step?"
Sun Yi'an replied humbly.
"Hehe~ Daoist friends are too modest, and can become a unique talisman maker, which one is not a person with outstanding talents? Moreover, the last time Daoist friends came, they were still in the middle stage of Qi refining, and in just a few months, they had already become a late stage of Qi refining. The advanced speed of Daoyou is really embarrassing! ”
Sun Yi was taken aback, in order to save some spirit stones, he only restored his cultivation to the level of the late stage of qi refining today, and he forgot about this stubble in a hurry this time!
After a moment of thought, he spoke:
"Hehe~ I have been trapped in the middle stage of qi refining for many years, and I only broke through to the late stage of qi refining not long ago, which is not unusual, how can I compare it with a foundation building stage cultivator like my predecessors."
"I think that Daoyou is not only quite accomplished in talisman making, but now he is already in the late stage of Qi refining, and I am only in the early stage of foundation building, you and I can intersect with each other, and you don't need to be called a senior!"
Sun Yi'an was originally a monk in the early stage of foundation building, and if he was a profound cultivator, he was afraid that he would be much stronger than the person in front of him, so he didn't shirk it, and nodded slightly.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man smiled slightly:
"Although I am the master of this pavilion, the acquisition of this pavilion has always been the responsibility of another elder, so as for the value of these talismans of Daoyou, that elder has to see it! Why don't you sit down for a while, and then call the elders of this pavilion? ”
"In this way, there will be Lao Daoyou!"
Sun Yi'an nodded slightly.
The middle-aged man took out a sound transmission magic disc and bowed his head and said a few words, and then smiled and poured tea for Sun Yi'an, who tapped the table with his fingers together.
Not long after, a beautiful woman in her thirties, who was also in the early stage of foundation building, walked upstairs with a silk scarf in her hand.
When Sun Yi'an saw this person, he was shocked in his heart.
With the power of his current divine sense, although he didn't deliberately investigate, he didn't even notice this person before this beautiful woman went upstairs!
If the other party didn't cultivate any hidden exercises, he would definitely be cultivating much higher than himself, and he couldn't help but raise a little vigilance in his heart.
"Hehe, let me introduce you to Daoyou, this is the Elder of this Pavilion Jianbao, Yao Daoyou"
With the words of the middle-aged, the beautiful woman saluted Sun Yi'an, and Sun Yi'an bowed slightly.
"By the way, my surname is Tang Mingyuan, and I haven't asked for the name of the Taoist friend!"
After introducing the woman, the three of them sat down one after another, and the middle-aged man never mentioned the identification of the talisman, but inquired about Sun Yi'an's name.
"Hehe, play in the next grandson."
Sun Yixin was slightly surprised, and at this time he also sensed that something was wrong with this person. It was as if the two of them didn't care much about the deal, but were interested in him personally.
At the beginning, the middle-aged man said that he would invite an elder who specializes in treasure appraisal to come and check the talisman, Sun Yi'an didn't think much about it, just thought it was the rules of the Duobao Pavilion, but at this moment, he was slandering the two of them in his heart.
It's just a mid-level talisman, although it is precious, but it is not an extremely rare treasure, even if it is a Qi refining period cultivator, you can know its authenticity at a casual glance, and you can't afford to drive a foundation building stage elder to come and check it.
It seems that Tang Yuan summoned this woman to come, not really for any treasure appreciation, but for other purposes.
Sure enough, after listening to Sun Yi'an, the two glanced at each other, and listened to the beautiful woman's red lips and said lightly:
"Thanks to Sun Daoyou taking care of the business of this pavilion, according to the rules, I shouldn't have inquired into Sun Daoyou's private affairs, but the concubine heard Brother Tang say that Sun Daoyou is a talisman maker, and he is still free, dare to ask Daoyou can be interested in joining this pavilion and becoming a dedicated talisman maker of this pavilion?"
