Chapter Seventy-Three: Rune Paper Making Skills

Time is in a hurry, and more than half a month has passed in a blink of an eye.

On this day, the new copy time was refreshed, and Hou Jiuming couldn't wait to go to Fang City.

In the past half month, Hou Jiuming has not been refreshed because of the copy.

Therefore, I bought three bottles of Biling Pill in Fang City and stayed at home to bury myself in penance.

Now, when the time comes, I naturally can't wait to go to Fang City, wanting to copy the method of making talismans of a higher grade.

Huajiangfang City is no different from half a month ago.

It's still the monks who come and go.

After entering Fang City, Hou Jiuming purposefully went straight to a stall in the square.

This is a figure he has investigated and copied in the past half a month.

The other party also sells talismans.

But there are occasionally a few medium-grade talismans interspersed with them.

As a result, his business was much better than that of other people who only sold elementary grade talismans.

After inquiring with He Yinong, it was confirmed that the other party was indeed a talisman maker.

It's just that the skills are not very exquisite, although they have been able to draw medium-grade talismans, but the success rate is very touching.

It's good to be able to sell 20 sheets a month.

Because the medium-grade talisman is a more popular thing.

So, the other party's booth is placed in the center of the square.

It was an old man in his fifties, with gray hair and beard.

However, his complexion is as ruddy as a baby, and he has a hint of crane hair and childish face to get the image of a master.

As for cultivation, it is the sixth level of Qi training.

Hou Jiuming did not rush to the stall, but pretended to look at the old man inadvertently when passing by the stall.

"Found a special skill, do you want to copy it?"

Yes/No

"Yes~"

In an instant, the light curtain exploded, turning into a majestic memory that flooded into his mind.

But Hou Jiuming's footsteps did not stop and walked towards the innermost part of the square.

Where is the location of He Yinong's stall.

But after taking a few steps, his steps suddenly stopped for a moment, and then continued on as if nothing had happened.

"Gan, what's the matter, why hasn't it been copied to the talisman technique?"

Combing through the things in his mind, Hou Jiuming scolded in his heart.

Because I didn't copy the talisman just now, I copied the method of making blank rune paper.

For him, who continued to earn spirit stones, the blank rune paper could not solve the current problem at all.

But what the system replicates is not something he can control at all.

I have no choice but to wait for the next refresh to copy.

"Hey, forget it, making blank rune paper is also a skill, it's better than nothing, at least you don't have to buy rune paper in the future."

After comforting himself in his heart, Hou Jiuming cleaned up his disappointment and walked to He Yinong's stall.

It's a bit unreasonable to come here, don't set up a stall, and leave directly.

"Hou Daoyou, you're here!" Seeing him, He Yinong greeted him warmly, the location of his stall was in the middle of nowhere, and few people usually visited.

It's often just a night of doing it alone.

Now, if there is someone to talk to, it is naturally much happier.

"Hmm~" Hou Jiuming nodded with low interest, and then asked, "How's the business, He Daoyou!" ”

As soon as Hou Jiuming's words came out, He Yinong's face immediately collapsed, his business belongs to the kind that does not open for three days, and eats for three days when it is open, but it has been very strange recently,

It's been a month, and no business has come to the door, so he was not very happy because of this, but now when he hears this, it is strange that he can be happy.

Seeing his expression, Hou Jiuming's mood immediately balanced.

People's joys, sorrows, and sorrows are not connected, and happiness is often based on the pain of others.

An uneventful night passed.

There is no difference from the first time to set up a stall, a business has not been done, and the two of them have been idle until the end of the stall.

Although I didn't copy the skills I wanted, I was still curious about the new blank copy production method.

So, in the next few days, Hou Jiuming fell into a busy situation.

While making talisman paper tools, he is looking for spirit trees that are more than 100 years old.

The tools for making rune paper were simple, and it only took two days for a huge stone platform and stone basin to appear in Hou Jiuming's courtyard.

Rune paper is not as simple as making paper, making wood into wood pulp, then processing it to cool it, and cutting it.

Instead, it must be cut directly into thin slices according to the texture of the log, and of a specific size, and then attached to the spirit stone and some special herbs, and refined with spiritual fire.

It's easy to say, but the real process is very troublesome.

If you want to make a batch of rune paper, it is impossible to make it without two or three days.

As soon as the tools on his side were ready, the news of the century-old tree came.

However, whether it was a spirit wood or not, he still needed to go and check it in person.

…………

Morning.

The north gate of Linjiang City, in the opposite direction of Huajiang.

Hou Jiuming rode a horse and went out of the city.

After deciding that he wanted to make talisman paper, he commissioned the tooth shop that sold the house.

Let them look for news of the hundred-year-old tree.

I thought it would take a long time, but I didn't expect that it was only three days, and Yaxing sent seven or eight news about the century-old tree.

He came back to his senses afterwards.

Hundred-year-old trees may be very rare in modern times, but in ancient times, they did not seem to be unusual.

Many of the ancestral houses have century-old trees.

And the people of this era were very superstitious, and they were in awe of the animals and plants that lived for a long time.

Therefore, the hundred-year-old tree he was worried about was difficult to find, and there was no need at all.

Out of Linjiang City, I rode all the way to the north, and walked for about an hour before I came to the first target town, Jiangbei Town.

This town may be the reason for its proximity to Riverside City, which is larger than many small towns.

A long street runs from north to south, and jagged houses spread out on both sides around the street.

It was already noon, and there weren't many pedestrians on the streets.

Most stay at home and eat.

Those who hang out outside are either rich people who are ready to go to restaurants, or poor people who are busy with their lives.

"Phew~"

When he arrived at the entrance of the town, Hou Jiuming grabbed the reins, turned over from the horse, looked up, and saw a grocery store selling firewood, rice, oil and salt next to him, so he led the horse forward.

The shopkeeper of the grocery store was a middle-aged man, and after seeing him, he immediately asked enthusiastically.

"What do you need from the guest officer, I have everything here......

Hou Jiuming, who originally wanted to ask directly and then leave, was embarrassed to speak directly when he heard him say this.

So, I suppressed my eagerness to inquire and made a lot of noise in the store.

Not to mention, this shop is not very big, and at the front entrance is a large wooden box, divided into a grid, which is full of all kinds of grain.

Inside the store, in front of the three walls, there are shelves filled with all kinds of high-quality products.

Not only the firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea that the boss said, but also the non-staple food of rice cakes, rice crackers and other grains.
