Chapter Seventy-Six: The Seven Demon Charms
Hong Jun and Jiang Mingyu each put away the spirit stone, and they were all happy.
Jiang Mingyu was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Now that Daoyou's net worth is already considered a rich person among the monks in the Qi refining period, I think I joined the sect at the beginning of the year, and I began to struggle for more than ten years, I don't know how much hardship I have endured and how much effort I have put into it in order to earn spirit stones." ”
"It's all a gift from the master, but I'm sitting back and enjoying it, and I won't have such good luck in the future. Hong Jun's face was indifferent, and he didn't feel very proud.
"Not really. Jiang Mingyu sighed: "If you are a beginner in refining qi, you will be able to worship the next Jindan Zhenren's disciple, this is your chance, this spirit stone is very important to Daoists, and the help is immeasurable, and all future achievements will be attributed to this good start." It's a pity that although my sect has thousands of years of inheritance, the patriarch of the sect is a monk in the Zifu period, and there has never been a Jindan real person after the patriarch has been seated, otherwise it would not be trapped in a corner of Qingguo, and it will intersect with several surrounding sects, and it is also trembling, walking on thin ice. ”
Hong Jun was a little surprised, he didn't know much about the True Sect, and asked, "Isn't there even a Jindan monk in the senior sect?"
"Naturally not, the Jindan period monk can be called a real person, which means that the person who really sets foot on the road of immortality, even in the big sect is the mainstay, indispensable, not to mention me and other small families, hundreds of thousands of years may not be able to produce one, once there are monks in the door to condense the golden pill, it is the time for the sect to take off! Jin Dan real mana is all over the sky, can collect more heavenly and earthly treasures for the sect, and can also bring up the juniors, with a little guidance, it can drive the cultivation of all the people in the sect to rise together, so that the probability of later people when condensing Jin Dan will increase by one or two points. When Jiang Mingyu said this, he seemed to remember his own cultivation path, and he didn't have the slightest grasp of the condensing golden pill, which could be described as a bleak future, and he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
After being silent for a long time, Hong Jun saw Jiang Mingyu's thoughts, stopped bothering him, and left after bowing silently.
In the early morning of the next day, Hong Jun informed Jiang Mingyu and went to the secret tower puja alone.
Walking across the sky trestle bridge again and stepping on the top square, Hong Jun looked around and found that there were more monks in the mountains, thinking that it was getting closer and closer to the day when the pagoda appeared, and the monks from all over Xuanzhou kept coming, I really don't know what a grand occasion it will be when the pagoda appears!
Hong Jun walked leisurely around the trading places one by one, and casually, walked to the stall of Fu Xiu that he had visited the day before yesterday, and sure enough, Fu Xiu was still there, as if he had never left here.
There were seven or eight monks in front of Fu Xiu's booth, some of them were watching, and some were asking for the price, all of them were surprised by the exquisiteness of the other party's Fu Gong Dao. After comparing it before, in addition to the Dao pavilions of the various sects, among the scattered cultivators in the festival, if you talk about the quality of the talismans, none of them can compare to this talisman cultivator, and other monks have also discovered this, so the business of this stall is very good, and the sales of those expensive talismans are very good. Hong Jun estimated that after deducting the cost, this Fu cultivator would still be able to earn a lot of spirit stones, and his net worth was so thick that he might be able to rank among the Qi refining period cultivators.
Fortunately, this talisman cultivator is a fourth-level cultivator, and the talisman technique is so amazing, the strength must be extremely powerful, far beyond ordinary monks, and few people dare to think crookedly above this secret pagoda puja.
Hong Jun didn't rush forward, he first wandered around the stalls for a while, saw the opportunity when there were few people, pretended to pass by the stall of Fu Xiu unintentionally, stopped, and said loudly: "Senior, how do you sell this cinnabar spiritual liquid and rune paper?"
Fu Xiu glanced at Hong Jun, his appearance was very young, with a neat short beard under his chin, long hair was jet black, and he couldn't tell his real age, but the fourth-layer cultivation of Qi refining was really placed there, which still made Hong Jun's heart slightly frightened, but he didn't show a little panic, and his face was as calm as water.
"A jar of cinnabar spirit liquid is priced at three spirit stones, a stack of rune paper is ten pieces, and the price is two spirit stones. Fu Xiu replied lightly.
Hong Jun was prepared for this price, the things in the Fu Xiu booth were more than thirty percent higher than everyone else, even the ordinary cinnabar spirit liquid and rune paper, others only sold two spirit stones for a jar of spirit liquid, and a stack of rune paper and one spirit stone, but his price was fifty percent higher. However, looking at the way Fu Xiu naturally looks, his cinnabar spiritual liquid and rune paper should have something commendable.
"Senior, I want two jars of spiritual liquid and ten stacks of rune paper. Hong Jun took out the spirit stone and prepared to trade, a jar of cinnabar spirit liquid was enough to draw a hundred runes, he just wanted to practice his hands, and there were a hundred pieces of ten stacks of rune paper, which was more than enough.
Fu Xiu raised his eyebrows, he had already seen that Hong Jun only had the cultivation of the first level of qi refining, and he could actually have the financial resources to buy so many things, so he couldn't help asking, "Do you want to learn the art of drawing talismans?"
"That's right, and I ask my seniors for advice. Hong Jun bowed his hand and generously admitted that he had bought so many things at one time just to attract Fu Xiu's attention.
Fu Xiu nodded, he had a good impression of Hong Jun, his face was no longer as cold as before, and he stroked his beard and said: "Advice is exempt, the way of Fu Zheng is broad and profound, it all depends on your own understanding, learn more and practice more, your choice is right, I hope you can persevere, don't rush for quick success and give up halfway." Thinking that your cultivation is low, it is not easy to earn spirit stones, so I will give you a discount today, two jars of cinnabar spirit liquid and ten stacks of rune paper, sell you twenty spirit stones, and only earn you a little cost price. ”
"Thank you for your generosity. Hong Jun pretended to be full of gratitude, but he was calculating in his heart, something that cost twenty spirit stones would be sold for twenty-six spirit stones, and the profit would be one-third, which was really a huge profit!
Seeing his expression, Fu Xiu asked again, "What else do you have to do?"
Hong Jun seemed to have made a decision, deliberately lowered his voice, and said in an inaudible voice: "The junior had unintentionally obtained a talisman painting method not long ago, which seems to be very profound, but the younger generation has a low cultivation and does not know much about the talisman, so I don't recognize this talisman, so I want to ask the senior to identify it on my behalf, maybe I will gain something." ”
"Oh? Fu Xiu suddenly became interested, but he didn't pay special attention to it, a monk who was only a first-level cultivator, how advanced the talisman could get, it was very likely that it was just a junior talisman, and he had no knowledge, but he was regarded as a treasure.
Hong Jun took out a piece of paper and respectfully handed it to Fu Xiu.
Fu Xiu took the page, only glanced at it, and was immediately surprised. This piece of paper is faced with a half-page copy of the talisman, at first glance there is no peculiarity, but he has studied the art of the talisman for decades, and is well versed in this way, and he can see at once that this talisman is by no means a primary, but a rare intermediate talisman! Unfortunately, the paper is not completely drawn, more than half is missing, and the copying technique is also very rough, completely losing the charm of the intermediate talisman, if it is not for his unique eyesight, he may have missed it.
Fu Xiu became serious and studied carefully for a while, then he reluctantly returned the page to Hong Jun, and asked a little eagerly: "You copied this talisman, right?
"Seniors can see what kind of talisman this is?" Hong Jun asked with a look of hope, but he was smiling secretly in his heart, this is one of the three intermediate talismans that he copied from the Five Elements Yuan Miao Fu Sutra, called the Seven Demon Talismans, deliberately incomplete, just to lure the other party into the bait, and now it seems that things are going well.
Fu Xiu shook his head and said: "Your talisman is too poorly drawn, and most of it is missing, I can't see what the specific talisman is for the time being, but it should be an intermediate-level talisman, and the paintings on the talisman are all yin, which can be seen to be related to the power of yin ghosts, plus it has a bit of the effect of condensing the yin body, so it should be a talisman for summoning ghosts." ”
This time it was Hong Jun's turn to be really surprised, the other party actually guessed that eight/nine was not far from ten, which was very close to the truth. The Seven Demon Talisman can indeed summon seven Yin Demon Demons to fight against the enemy, and the strength of each Yin Demon is equivalent to a monk who has perfected the fifth layer of Qi refining.
The Seven Demon Talismans are so powerful, but unfortunately the mana consumed when refining them is extremely high, and the difficulty of drawing them is far higher than that of the primary talismans, only the Jindan monks who are good at the art of the talismans can refine them, but the monks in the Qi refining period are not able to catch them, and it is almost impossible to succeed. However, for a talisman cultivator, the attraction of an intermediate talisman is extremely great, even if he knows that he can't draw it, he must collect it in his hand first, and it may be useful in the future.
"Do you have a complete talisman in your hand, can you sell it to me?" Fu Xiu couldn't wait to ask again.
Hong Jun understood the other party's feelings, and no longer sold Guanzi, and replied: "The juniors do have the complete painting method of this talisman, and they are willing to sell it to the seniors, but I don't know how much to make the price, please ask the seniors to make a price." ”
Fu Xiu was overjoyed, groaned a few times, and said: "Although the value of the intermediate rune is high, it is tantamount to chicken ribs for the monks in the Qi refining period, I can't draw it, it must be a loss-making deal, but I won't lie to you, you can choose five primary runes on this stall, plus double the cinnabar spiritual liquid and rune paper you just bought, and a copy of the "Elementary Rune Collection" in my handbook, which is extremely helpful for you to study the art of runes, what do you think?"
"Does the primary talisman set include all the primary-level talismans that the predecessors will know?" Hong Jun was secretly happy in his heart, his purpose today is for this, the general primary-level talismans he can learn in the "Five Elements Yuan Miao Fu Ying Jing", what he wants is a few rare primary talismans that the other party will know, such as flying talismans, fixing talismans, and Dunjia talismans.
"Naturally. Fu Xiu nodded, a two-finger-thick book appeared in his hand, and said: "This 'Elementary Rune Collection' is a collection of my life, there are a total of eighty-three primary runes, more than twice as many as the primary runes that ordinary runes will do, and there are several very rare, enough for you to use endlessly in your life." ”
"Okay, the juniors have changed!" Hong Jun wanted this, and immediately agreed to the deal.
