A plump young woman who looked to be about thirty years old appeared in front of Zhao Yu and asked with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.

"I should ask you, this house is my ......"

Zhao Yu took out the token and threw it over directly.

The woman took a look and immediately showed an embarrassed look, "This house has not been inhabited for many years, so I occasionally dry my clothes, but I didn't expect ......"

She coughed, then returned to normal, and smiled: "My name is Liu Wenxuan, and I live next door to you, what do you call this little Taoist friend?" ”

With her cultivation, she naturally saw at a glance that Zhao Yu only had the realm of practicing qi.

"Zhao Yu!"

The two got to know each other briefly, and Liu Wenxuan began to move the clothes that were placed in this house.

Zhao Yu noticed that there was a small pink bed in the bedroom, and judging from the futon, the woman had obviously lived here for a long time.

But what puzzled him was that all the disciples of Shushan, even if they didn't have money, could apply for a free house here, why didn't she apply for one?

"Okay, my things are put away, you can move in directly......"

Liu Wenxuan had a storage bag, and in just three or two clicks, she cleaned up the house.

"Thank you!"

Zhao Yu arched his hand and watched the other party leave, and then looked around in the room.

The house is not big, only more than 30 square meters, but it was cleaned by the nun and clean, which was better than expected.

Zhao Yu didn't bother to think about why the other party didn't apply for housing, but ran here to live, cleaned up a little, and lived directly.

After getting familiar with it for a few days and figuring out the surrounding environment, Zhao Yu resumed his previous itinerary and began to travel back and forth to the Medicine Valley.

But what made him a little disappointed was that Mo Cai'er, the little witch who had been violent before, had never come again, and seemed to have lost interest in stepping on medicine.

"It's normal to lose interest, after all, for her, it's just for fun......

Zhao Yu tried to obtain energy points from other people, but the effect was minimal.

However, during this time, Zhao Yu's aura was refined to the extreme.

His aura was originally born through energy, and he belonged to the most pure ranks, and now he had reached the level of pure aura that others would take years or even decades to achieve.

Seeing that there was nothing to gain in the Medicine Valley, Zhao Yu also had the idea of leaving here.

Who knows, as soon as the medicine valley was over that day, and was about to leave, Mo Cai'er suddenly appeared and stopped in front of Zhao Yu.

"Foolish!"

As soon as Mo Cai'er met, she shouted directly, and there seemed to be a little smug in her eyes.

"Something?!"

Seeing her appear, Zhao Yu was also slightly happy, which meant that he could gather wool again.

However, he didn't show it on the surface, because he knew very well that he couldn't be too polite when dealing with such a big family.

"Humph!"

Mo Cai'er was a little displeased, and immediately said proudly: "You have been here to cultivate for so long, how is the spiritual power refining?!" ”

"It's okay!"

Zhao Yu said casually.

"Hehe, what do you mean it's okay?!"

The girl next to Mo Cai'er took the initiative to say: "Spiritual power refining, there are three realms in total, either one of them has not arrived, or it has reached a certain realm, there is no transition stage, you are okay, could it be that you have reached a certain realm?!" ”

"Look at you like this, you know that you have wasted your time in the past few months!"

"But it's normal, a poor kid like you, coming here, it's a waste of talent and a waste of time......"

Mo Cai'er continued: "No, waste talent, that's for those who have talent, like him, a waste who only practiced qi at the age of eighteen, what is it not for nothing?!" ”

"Hmmm......"

Zhao Yu pondered for two seconds and said, "You guys came here, just say this?!" ”

[Anger from Mo Cai'er, +99 energy]

"What kind of attitude do you have, you, you you......"

Mo Cai'er was a little angry, in her opinion, Zhao Yu should be angry when he was scolded like this.

Who knows, people just have a plain face, which makes her feel like a clown.

The girl on the side couldn't help but be anxious when she saw Mo Cai'er's anger, and showed off: "Boy, you don't know what it means to be talented, our Cai'er is only fifteen years old today, and now we have already refined our spiritual power to the refining stage of the first realm......"

Mo Cai'er suddenly showed a triumphant smile on her face, looking like she was waiting to see Zhao Yu's shocked expression.

"Refining stage, is it powerful?!"

Who knows, a scene that shocked the two of them appeared.

Zhao Yu casually released a little spiritual power, and an extremely pure fluctuation came out.

"This is ......" Mo Cai'er's eyes widened, looking at the fluctuation of spiritual power in disbelief, suspecting that she was dazzled.

"I'm sorry, I've already practiced to the highest level of refinement, this Pill Valley, I don't plan to come, you guys practice slowly!"

After speaking, Zhao Yuyun left lightly.

To be reasonable, he can continue to stay here and harvest energy with Mo Cai'er.

But he knows very well that there is a difference between a saturated meal and a full meal, and a big clan lady like Mo Cai'er has to fish like this in order to attract the other party and achieve the purpose of continuously gaining energy.

Sure enough, long after he left, Mo Cai'er and her little friends did not recover, and their eyes were still full of confusion and shock.

"He's really in the refinement stage?!"

"It seems like a real ......"

"It can't be fake, right?!"

"No, it's true!"

Mo Cai'er shook her head, "I've seen my uncle's alchemy, and spiritual power fluctuations are like this......"

The girl next to her was stunned, "Could it be that that fool has really cultivated spiritual power to the refinement stage?!" ”

"How did he do it?!"

"You know, you have just refined now, and you are only able to make talismans, and when he reaches refinement, isn't he already able to refine weapons and alchemy?!"

In this world, talisman making, refining, and alchemy also have a certain threshold, and in addition to a large number of resources to practice, it is also necessary to refine spiritual power to a more pure realm.

"My grandfather said when I was young that I had a talent for alchemy, but he ......"

Mo Cai'er's brain was a little down, but she didn't expect that a guy who practiced qi at the first level would reach the realm of spiritual power refinement in such a short period of time.

"Cai'er, don't think too much, you're only fifteen years old, and he's eighteen years old, it's normal to refine three years older than you......"

"That's not right!"

Mo Cai'er shook her head and said, "Didn't we investigate his identity, a subordinate from a subordinate background, and he only reached the first level of Qi cultivation in the last three months, which is three months slower than my promotion to the Qi cultivation period......"

"This means that in three months, he has refined his spiritual power to the realm of refinement......"

Talented!

In Mo Cai'er's mind, such thoughts kept flashing.

But she was a little unwilling, she broke through to the refining realm a few days ago, but she was praised by a bunch of people in the family as a rare genius in a hundred years.

Even, grandpa personally held a celebration banquet and invited many celebrities to celebrate for her.

But now, Zhao Yu's appearance completely made her a little desperate.

"I cultivated to the refinement of spiritual power in three months, but he cultivated to the refinement of spiritual power in three months, two stages behind......"

"If I'm a genius, then what is he?!"

The girl on the side listened to Mo Cai'er's muttering, and was speechless for a while.

"Cai'er, such a person does have a talent for alchemy, why don't you notify your family?"

"No way!"

Mo Cai'er suddenly came to her senses, "This guy is now a pure spiritual power, once it is known, he will definitely be fought over by the major families......"

"In that case, how can we get revenge?!"

She clenched her fists and said, "Therefore, about the purity of his spiritual power, it must be concealed, and no one else can know about it, from today on, I will keep an eye on him to prevent him from being discovered......"

"But what if he says it himself?"

"He dares!"

Mo Cai'er was a little weak, and said in a weak voice: "Anyway, stare at him......"

……

On the way back to Jiuliufang, the corners of Zhao Yu's mouth kept rising.

Coming back from the Pill Valley, his energy prompt sound didn't stop along the way.

Mo Cai'er and her little friends contributed a lot of energy, which made him happy.

"There's no need to go to the Medicine Valley, if nothing else, since she has refined her aura, she should be able to learn the talisman......"

Zhao Yu touched his chin and thought about where to go to learn talismans.

On Shu Mountain, the Qi training period is generally based on the cultivation realm, from top to bottom, and the focus is also on what kind of cultivation realm is achieved at different ages.

Like stepping on the Medicine Valley and cultivating the Immortal Baiyi, there are generally no requirements, like elective courses, put them there, and choose freely.

However, this kind of skill is mostly taught by the children of large clans, and few ordinary disciples will learn it, so most of the private classes are very expensive.

"No money......"

As soon as Zhao Yu touched his pocket, it was like a breeze on his sleeves, except for some daily necessities and meal tickets, there was not a single spirit stone.

He scratched his head, feeling as if he had been a little naïve.

Thinking that if he had energy, he would not need spirit stones and cultivation resources, but now it seems that it is too extreme.

If you have cultivation resources, even if you don't use them for cultivation, you can use them to buy other talisman magic weapons, or pills to heal injuries.

"Cultivating Immortals and Hundred Arts, what I can get in touch with now are the three major items of civilians, talismans, refining tools and alchemy......

"This is one of the few skills that can be cultivated by civilians, among which the alchemist has the highest status, the refining weapon is second, and the talisman is ...... again."

"If you go to learn alchemy......

"No!"

Zhao Yu shook his head slightly, these days, he has also understood that if you want to make a talisman, you need to reach the refinement level of spiritual power, if you want to refine a weapon, you need to reach the essence level of spiritual power, and if you want to refine the pill, you need to reach the pure level of spiritual power.

If he directly displayed his spiritual power in the pure realm, he would naturally be regarded as a super genius of alchemy, and a large number of people would rush to take him as an apprentice.

But this is too high-profile and too ostentatious, and Zhao Yu is reluctant to enter the eyes of some powerful people too early.

"The essence level is not good, so it's best to just show the refinement level and learn the talisman ......"

"The eighteen-year-old refining level should not be particularly outstanding, it can only be regarded as a little genius......

After thinking about it, Zhao Yu felt that it was better to simply learn how to make talismans, master a craft, and then earn some spirit stones, so that it would not be like now.

For him, when he doesn't need to cultivate, time can really only be consumed by thoughts, rather than wandering around with nothing, it is better to learn a few crafts.

"Yes, I just don't know where to find a place to teach how to make talismans......

Zhao Yu thought about it, went straight to the streets of Jiuliufang, and began to wander around.

Soon, he saw a sign for apprentices in front of a shop that sold talismans.

Zhao Yuxing rushed in, and a quarter of an hour later, he walked out disgraced.

"Phew, it takes so many spirit stones to recruit apprentices, so that you have to sign a deed of sale, it's really ...... to cut the door."

Zhao Yu was a little helpless, and went to several stores in a row, the conditions were almost the same, the apprentice needed to pay a one-time payment of one hundred spirit stones to apprentice, and then sign a twenty-year contract.

The content of the contract is like a contract of sale, all of which are overlord clauses.

But what Zhao Yu didn't expect was that even so, there were many apprentices in the shops he went to, and his eyes were still full of disdain when he looked at him.

Then, Zhao Yu thought again, why don't you just learn to make talismans by yourself.

After a few turns, I found that there was no self-study book for making talismans at all.

After understanding, I learned that in Shushan, any self-study books on cultivating immortals and hundred arts are all sold in official stores, with copyright protection, and others will be held accountable for selling them.

As for the price of self-study books in the official store, that is a figure that Zhao Yu dare not think of now.

"It's so bad......"

Zhao Yu looked up to the sky and sighed, his spiritual power was pure, and he could theoretically refine the pill, but he couldn't even afford to buy books for making talismans.

was about to go back, suddenly, Zhao Yu found an acquaintance.

"Liu Wenxuan?!"

Zhao Yu noticed that Liu Wenxuan, a neighbor of his new home, was setting up a stall not far away selling talismans.

"She's a talisman master?"

Zhao Yu was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the neighbor of Ninth Street turned out to be a talisman master.

In his impression, the kind of place on Ninth Street should be a place where rookies like them who practice qi for one or two floors will go.

Fu Gong Master, even if it is the lowest end of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals, it is also a profession that can earn a lot of spirit stones.

Any Fu Master, not to mention the first and second streets, at least the third and fourth streets can afford to live.

With a hint of doubt, Zhao Yu walked over.

Liu Wenxuan's stall has three kinds of talismans, and there is a sign hanging next to it.

"Cleansing Talisman, a spirit stone."

"Golden light runes, five spirit stones."

"Golden shield talisman, ten spirit stones."

"Recruit apprentices, fifty spirit stones, and the contract can be negotiated."

"Are you...... Zhao Yu?! ”

Liu Wenxuan naturally saw Zhao Yu as well, and a smile appeared on her face, "What a coincidence, you are also shopping here?" ”

"Liu Daoyou didn't expect to be a talisman master, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

Zhao Yu said politely.

"Haha, how about it, do you want a talisman, we are neighbors, sell you cheaply!"

Liu Wenxuan's face was a little proud, as a talisman master, this was one of the few places she felt proud.

"I don't have any spirit stones to buy these!"

Zhao Yu shook his head bitterly, and said casually: "Liu Daoyou, do you know where you can learn talismans for free?!" ”

"Learn talismans, you also want to be a talisman master?!"

Liu Wenxuan looked at Zhao Yu, shook her head and said, "You better forget it, you are young, you will be abolished if you learn this......"

Zhao Yu was a little helpless, since he went to Shushan, he was about to become cocooned when he heard this kind of words.

But it's normal, ordinary people have already exhausted all their energy and time just to improve their cultivation, how can they have extra energy and time to learn the hundred arts of cultivating immortals.

Over the years, I don't know how many people have delayed their cultivation because of cultivating immortals, and finally died of depression.

Seeing that Zhao Yu didn't speak, Liu Wenxuan hesitated for a moment and said, "However, if you want to learn, you can also find me......"

She originally subconsciously saw that Zhao Yu was young and had a promising future, and advised the other party not to go astray.

But after thinking about it, she was not close to Zhao Yu, and it was meaningless to say that it was better to treat him as a normal customer.

"I don't have fifty spirit stones, can I pay them on credit?" Zhao Yu coughed and asked slightly embarrassed.

"On credit?!"

Liu Wenxuan froze for a moment, instinctively wanting to refuse, but thinking that Zhao Yu was now a neighbor, she couldn't look up and see her, so it was not good to refuse directly.

"If you owe on credit, there is no precedent for this, the apprentice of the Fu Master has never seen anyone who owes on credit, but it ......"

She thought for a moment and said, "However, if you really want to learn, it's not impossible!" ”

"What do you say?!" Zhao Yu came to the spirit, and when he went to the Fu Gong shop before, he was angry one by one, and he wanted spirit stones and signed a deed of sale, and he was annoyed to death.

"If you become my apprentice, I will teach you to study ink ...... in the first three years"

"If you can train your spiritual power to the refining level within five years......"

Liu Wenxuan put forward a lot of conditions, and it sounds like she basically wants him to be a free laborer.

The only thing that sounds good is that after the spiritual power is refined, he will start to teach the production of runes, and the made runes can be divided into three percent after they are sold.

If you are an ordinary person, you will waste a few years, and your spiritual power will not reach the level of refinement, so you will basically leave.

But Zhao Yu is different.

I saw him raise his fingertips and release a little spiritual power.

"Spiritual power refining?!"

Liu Wenxuan's eyes widened and she looked at Zhao Yu in disbelief.

Zhao Yu nodded, put away the spiritual power at his fingertips, and asked, "What are the conditions for someone like me to reach spiritual power refining in less than five years?" ”

Liu Wenxuan quickly looked ecstatic after a short stunned moment, but she seemed to be afraid that Zhao Yu would see something and tried to hide her smile.

But her acting skills were not good, and she was exposed all of a sudden, and in the end, Liu Wenxuan slapped the table and put away the stall directly.

"Let's go, Zhao Yu Daoyou, let's go back first, go back and talk about ......"

She also deliberately looked left and right to make sure that no one noticed this, especially when she noticed the spiritual power refining level of Zhao Yu's fingertips before, so she breathed a long sigh of relief.

Zhao Yu thought about it, if he had the opportunity to learn talisman with Liu Wenxuan for free, as long as the conditions were not too excessive, he could accept it, so he followed Liu Wenxuan all the way back to Ninth Street.

Back on Ninth Street, Liu Wenxuan took Zhao Yu directly to her room.

The same residence of more than 30 square meters in size is densely packed with all kinds of talisman tools, and there is only a small bed in one corner.

After looking at Liu Wenxuan's environment, Zhao Yu suddenly realized why the other party still occupied his room when he had a room.

"Liu Daoyou, I have a question for you......"

Zhao Yu was a little puzzled and said, "You are a talisman maker, how can you live here?!" ”

"I'm going to save money!"

Liu Wenxuan's face was filled with a happy smile, and she said: "My Taoist is a nine-fold Qi practitioner, and I am not yet thirty years old, so I have a great chance of breaking through to the foundation building period......

"We're saving up now to buy a Tsukidan, and when he builds the foundation, our days will get better......"

"When the time comes, if you want to see me again, then you will have to go to Yijie or even Mingyuefang......"

Zhao Yu of Mingyuefang knew that next door to Jiuliufang, the environmental grade was higher, and even the aura was more abundant than here, and the same price was also very high.

"I see!"

Zhao Yu nodded slightly, and went straight to the point: "Let's talk about Fu Zheng......

"Good!"

Liu Wenxuan restrained her emotions for a moment and said, "Since you have refined your spiritual power and have the qualifications to make talismans, then it is not appropriate for me to accept your spirit stones as an apprentice......

"I can teach you for free, and after you learn it, I will draw seventy percent of every talisman I make...... No, fifty percent! ”

Hearing this condition, Zhao Yu nodded slightly, it was much better than those black-hearted talisman making shops.

"What is the time limit?"

"Three years, how?!" Liu Wenxuan asked with some apprehension.

For her, this transaction is not a loss, even if a first-order junior talisman maker gives her a part-time job, it is not a small amount after three years.

As for the teaching of talisman making, isn't that just a waste of time to move your tongue?

Zhao Yu thought about it slightly, according to his plan, he would also practice Qi Nine Levels in three years, almost over.

"Yes!"

"Good!"

Liu Wenxuan was overjoyed, and hurriedly took out an agreement and began to draw it up.

After a while, she drafted the agreement and said: "This is an agreement certified by the protection of Shushan, if you sign a breach of contract, I will find the Shushan Precept Division to arbitrate!" ”

"When the time comes, not only will you compensate me many times, but you may also face a fine!"

In fact, she hadn't been to the Precepts Division either, but she knew that most people didn't dare to disobey it, after all, here, Shushan was bigger than the sky.

"Good!"

Zhao Yu nodded slightly, and according to the instructions, he imprinted his spiritual power fluctuations.

The fluctuation of spiritual power is like a person's fingerprint, with a personal characteristic mark, and basically no two people are exactly the same.

"Good, good!"

After seeing Zhao Yu sign the agreement, Liu Wenxuan blossomed, "Let's check the time and see what the free time is for both parties......"

"And what do I call you, Sensei?"

"Don't be so polite, you just call me Aunt Xuan, look at your appearance, I'm much older......" Liu Wenxuan said happily.

"Okay!"

Then, the two of them checked the time, mainly on Liu Wenxuan's side, she got up in the morning to make talismans, which took nearly a morning.

At noon, I had to rush to the market to set up a stall to sell talismans, and I didn't have time until the evening.

"Then teach ...... evening"

Zhao Yu was a little hesitant, the other party had a Taoist couple, and they were alone in the same room, which didn't seem to be suitable.

He spoke: "If you want to teach at night, is it convenient for you to be on the Taoist side?" ”

"Hey, I'm not afraid of what you're afraid of?!"

Liu Wenxuan smiled, "Don't worry, we have a deep relationship, he won't care about this!" ”

Seeing her say this, Zhao Yu didn't mind anything, and nodded directly.
