Chapter Eighty-Three: Exchanging Jade Janes
Fang Yan didn't go far, but came to a place with few people, and found an old jade slip in the storage bag, which was the travel notes of an old monk, Fang Yan had long erased the contents of it, and Fang Yan engraved some basic methods of talisman making, along with some of the experience of the talisman maker, which was also mixed with some of the dialect's experience, all engraved on the jade slip. In the end, Fang Yan also attached the method of making three kinds of talismans, such as the Shenxing talisman, and forged it into a family inheritance jade slip, ready to use it to exchange it with the monk.
With these preparations in mind, Fang Yan bought a cyan robe from a nearby vestment shop, dressed himself up on the spot, dressed up as a talisman maker, and walked out of the shop with a lively spirit, returning to the stall.
This time the dialect came prepared, pretending to walk to the stall casually, picking and turning over a few almost identical, all of them were shoddy ground trap charms, and sighed from time to time: "Alas, it's a pity, what a pity." ”
How could the stall owner sit still after talking like this, and quickly got up to speak, only to see a young Taoist, who looked like a talisman maker, shaking his head there. Fang Yan was also the stall owner at this time, a middle-aged Qi refining fifth-level cultivator, similar to Fang Yan's cultivation, but his face seemed to have been cut and chiseled with a knife, and deep wrinkles were densely covered on his face, coupled with an extremely serious expression, he was a judge who was alive.
"Dare to ask what Taoist friends have to say, and cultivate Kong Qingyuan in the next place. Seeing that the dialect was so young and that his cultivation was indeed not low, he didn't know who the dialect was, so he asked politely.
Fang Yan didn't answer, took out three talismans made by himself, and handed them to the stall owner, who didn't know what the dialect meant, so he subconsciously took it and held it in his hand. When he was about to speak, he suddenly reacted, blushed and said angrily: "It's really bad in my hands, but I don't know Daoist friends, and I haven't offended, why do you want to deliberately ridicule me?"
"Kong Daoyou misunderstood, in the following words, it is also a loose cultivation, this is not to ridicule Daoyou, but I want to ask Daoyou to give you some guidance, I don't know if the talisman making technique below can still enter the eyes of Daoyou?" Fang Yan said calmly, his eyes were clear, and his words made Kong Qingyuan stunned.
Then Kong Qingyuan was even more angry, if it weren't for the fact that he was of the same level, and he was in this Burning Sun City, he would almost have attacked violently. "Fang Daoyou's talisman making skills are far beyond those below, so why ask knowingly, is it to give up this place under the next place, and send it to Daoyou to set up a stall?"
Fang Yan smiled, deliberately pretending to be a master, and said to Kong Qingyuan lightly: "No, I just want to exchange talisman-making skills with Daoyou, and I don't have the idea of cutting off Daoyou's financial route." On the contrary, if I want to make a deal with Daoyou, if it is successful, Daoyou will definitely make a lot of money in the future. ”
"Deal, what do you mean, except for a poor talisman making technique, there is nothing else, there is really nothing to trade with Fang Daoyou. Kong Qingyuan, who said this, was even more confused, and said in a daze.
Fang Yan didn't answer, and asked again: "This earth trap talisman is made by Daoyou himself, how to make this earth-attribute talisman, Daoist friends can have other methods?"
"It's ??? Don't hide it from Taoist friends, the method of making this talisman is passed down from the lower master, and you can't transfer it to others casually. Kong Qingyuan hesitated slightly, and then said categorically.
"Hehe, Kong Daoyou doesn't have to be like this, I don't want Daoyou to cede to me, but I want to exchange talisman making techniques with Daoyou. This is the experience of the seniors in the lower clan in the early years and the method of making talismans, and after asking the Taoist friends to finish speaking, Fang Yan handed over the jade slip that had been prepared a long time ago.
Kong Qingyuan took the jade slip in disbelief, and put it on his forehead just to engrave it, then suddenly opened his eyes wide, and said in a stunned voice, and said with some excitement: "Daoyou turned out to be a family monk, are you going to use this jade slip in exchange, this is the inheritance of the talisman family, isn't Daoyou afraid of being punished by the elders in the family?"
"You don't have to worry about this, since you dare to take it out, you won't be fine. Besides, this is just the early age of a senior monk in the family, and it can't be considered profound, as long as the Taoist friends don't spread it after the exchange. ”
"This, Daoyou is enthusiastic in the heart, but this thing is the master's thing, please let me think about it carefully. After speaking, Kong Qingyuan returned the jade slip to Fang Yan.
Fang Yan didn't say anything more, just stood there and waited quietly, and the wrinkles on Qingyuan's face gathered together and twisted into pimples.
After a long time, Kong Qingyuan let out a long breath and said with some pain: "If it is exchanged, Daoist friends must make a poisonous oath, and they must not spread the method of making talismans below, and of course, they will never pass on the things of Daoist friends in the next, please rest assured that Daoist friends are here." ”
After speaking, Kong Qingyuan was ready to take something from the storage bag and exchange it with Fang Yan on the spot. Fang Yan hurriedly stopped him and said: "Don't worry, fellow Daoists, this is not a place to trade, or it is better to find another place in the next place, I don't know what the friendship will do?"
Kong Qingyuan also realized that he was in a hurry, and he was so out of shape in front of a hairy boy who was twenty or thirty years younger than himself, that he couldn't help but blush. Fang Yan looked around, pointed to a tall teahouse and said: "Kong Daoyou, how about going to that teahouse to trade, this time let me do the east in the next, after the transaction is completed, and then exchange talisman making experience with Daoyou, isn't it beautiful?"
Kong Qingyuan was embarrassed again, Fang Yan had already been embarrassed, and he was afraid that he couldn't afford to go to the kind of teahouse with ten spirit stones and a pot of tea. However, the dialect is also a little strange, this Kong Qingyuan is a monk in Burning Sun City, and he has been here for decades, and if it is not good, it will not be like this.
Fang Yan didn't look down on him, you must know that his father Fang Tong was probably just like this a few years ago, and he might not even be as good as him, if it was just because he was a little wealthy, and others were shy in his pocket, then he was afraid that it would not be a dialect. At this time, through Kong Qingyuan, the monks who were struggling at the lowest level of the immortal cultivation world like him, the prosperous immortal city would sometimes be their sad place.
With deep sympathy and questions in his heart, Fang Yan took Kong Qingyuan to the teahouse and asked for a private room on the second floor, and Fang Yan and the two went to the private room under the leadership of a maid. Fang Yan instructed the maid not to wait in the room, and the others not to disturb her, so he threw over a spirit stone and closed the door.
The two sat down, this room is not big, there is a table and a few chairs, there is a flower table against the wall, there is a pot of low-level spiritual flowers, and there are a few landscape paintings on the wall, the furnishings are simple, but very elegant. There was a tea set on the table, and the dialect brewed on its own.
After a cup of tea, Kong Qingyuan took out a simple jade slip, put it on the table, and said in a somewhat low tone: "Don't hide it from Fang Daoyou, the talisman making technique is learned in a jade slip left by the master, and practicing this technique is actually to fulfill the master's last wish." ”
Then Kong Qingyuan talked about the matter of their master and apprentice, it turned out that his master accidentally found this jade slip when he was looking for fate, the simple appearance of the jade slip, his master firmly believed that the talisman making technique in it must be great, so he put down other things and changed to learn talisman making. In fact, this is also the helplessness of casual cultivation, there are very few inheritances that can be obtained, and it is easy to get such a jade slip, of course, it is regarded as a great opportunity.
The next thing can be imagined, the monk who has never made a talisman directly starts to make it from the ancient talisman, and the earth trap talisman is still a medium-level talisman, and the result is that within a few years, he lost all his money, and his life became more and more miserable. However, his master was unwilling to give up, so he began to go deep into all kinds of dangerous places, until one day he was seriously injured and died.
But before dying, this stubborn monk still asked his apprentice Kong Qingyuan to continue his talisman making path and fulfill his own wishes, and Kong Qingyuan had followed his master since he was a child, and of course he didn't want to disobey him, so he agreed. It's a pity that he didn't have the talent to make talismans, and he didn't have the master's cultivation, so his life was even more difficult than when the master was there, and he soon became destitute because of the talisman making matter.
There were many times when Kong Qingyuan couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to sell this jade slip, but the master's deathbed instructions made him always unable to make up his mind. Now the dialect is just exchanging with him, and the jade slip of the dialect is indeed of great help to the improvement of his talisman making skills, and this exchange is not a violation of the master's order, and he really can't support it.
After saying this, Kong Qingyuan sighed, picked up the jade slip on the table and handed it to Fang Yan, and said to him with a serious face: "Fang Daoyou, this is the jade slip left by the family teacher, whether it is really as Daoyou Yi said below, but before the transaction, I also asked Daoyou to make an oath that he would never pass on the content of the jade slip, and he would also swear a poisonous oath in the future, and he would definitely not let Daoyou's family inheritance to others." ”
Fang Yan also took out his jade slip, and after exchanging them with each other, the two solemnly swore that they would never reveal the contents of the jade slip to others, and then Fang Yan put the jade slip on his forehead and came seriously. This jade slip was beyond the expectations of the dialect, in addition to the ground trap talisman, there were two other ways to make the talisman, namely the ground explosion talisman and the thunder stone talisman, and the thunder stone talisman had reached the level of an intermediate talisman.
In fact, the first time in the world of cultivating immortals was to divide the talisman into four levels, namely low-level, intermediate-level, high-level and top-level, among which there was no distinction between the upper, middle and lower levels, and later with the increasing scarcity of talisman materials, some talisman making techniques were gradually lost, and the high-level and top-level talisman production methods were already difficult to find, even the intermediate talismans were rare, most of them were treasured by the sect and the big family, and they were usually rare to see.
As a result, the common ones on the market are low-level talismans, which were not valued before, and have become the mainstream of the market, gradually filling the entire immortal cultivation world. Later, the makers and some merchants felt deeply inconvenient to trade, so they divided the low-level talismans again, divided into low-level, middle-level, high-level, top-level, etc., in fact, these are all in the scope of low-level talismans.
The method of making this thunder stone talisman alone is already worth the value of the jade slip in the above dialect, and it is more than enough, so obviously taking advantage of people, and it is a loyal person like Kong Qingyuan, the dialect is really difficult to feel at ease. After thinking about it, Fang Yan said: "Kong Daoyou, the value of this jade slip is far greater than the one below, and it would be too unfair to trade it on this one." I am willing to add two thousand spirit stones, and then take three of each of the several talismans I made before as compensation for my fellow Daoists, I don't know what to do?"
Of course, Kong Qingyuan knew that he had suffered a loss in this transaction, but his talisman making life for more than ten years had already made him miserable, and it was so easy to meet this opportunity today, so he forcibly held back and didn't say much. Now that Fang Yan said this, he was really relieved, Fang Yan was not a treacherous person, which also made him have a good impression of Fang Yan.
Besides, he is now in urgent need of spirit stones, and with the sample of the talisman given to him by Fang Yan, Kong Qingyuan believes that he will definitely be able to make a decent talisman to comfort the master's spirit in the sky. Thinking of this, Kong Qingyuan was a little excited in his heart, so he nodded and agreed to Fang Yan's conditions, and glanced at him with some gratitude.
So the two of them each copied each other's jade slips, and Fang Yan took out two thousand spirit stones and more than ten talismans and handed them to Kong Qingyuan, and the transaction was completed. Subsequently, the two chatted in this teahouse, mainly talking about some talisman making techniques, the talisman made by Bei Yuan was very bad, but more than ten years of accumulation and research still could not be a villain, but the villain talked about it for a long time, until late at night.
