Jin Ming is a Fu boy and Wei Chang's confidant, so his knowledge must be limited.
As for hypnotic questioning, the subject basically answers based on instinct and memory, without the ability to think.
Therefore, Xu Shu’s questions were also subject to considerable restrictions.
At least, Xu Shu figured out that Wei Chang and Xing Kaiding were basically the same person, and their plans were not trivial.
As for the Flame King Talisman, it actually needs to contain the energy of an entire earth vein.
Even if the quality of this earth vein seems to be poor, so much fire energy gathered in a strange talisman, you can imagine how terrifying it will be with your toes.
Seeing that he couldn't find any other useful information, Xu Shu stood up and left, leaving Jin Ming alone in the bath.
This kind of questioning-level hypnosis is a mild hypnosis, and it won't take long for Jin Ming to wake up on his own.
Xu Shu returned to the room and had a good night's sleep.
Early the next morning, just after breakfast, I saw Mr. Hua returning with a happy face.
His face was red, with spring hidden in the corners of his eyes, and he slapped a stack of green paper on the table, "Xiao Xu, you are here this time. Did you see that Qi coins, genuine Qi coins, belong to you?" "
Xu Shu had seen Jin Ming and Yi He delivering Qi coins in the hot spring pool, but this was the first time to actually hold them in his hands.
He grabbed the Qi coin and rubbed it carefully, but he couldn't tell the material of the Qi coin.
The Qi coin has a double dragon pattern on the front and a mountain and river shape on the back. On the four sides are the emperor's title of the Qin Dynasty and the reign title of the current emperor of the Qin Dynasty "Yongping 23rd year."
Obviously, these are Da Qin Qi coins circulating on the black market.
The stack of Qi coins in Xu Shu's hand had different denominations, including two yuan, one yuan, and the largest was five yuan, totaling more than twenty yuan.
Xu Shu knew that this was the piece rate salary that Xing Kaiding cashed in after they turned in the fireball talisman.
After careful counting, the number was wrong, more than half missing.
"Wei Chang said, we Talisman masters work hard, please give us more, Xiao Xu, do you have any objection?"
Hua Lao looked arrogant.
"No objection, I can give it all to Mr. Hua. Anyway, I have learned a lot this time."
He realized that Hua Lao's mentality had changed a lot.
Obviously, this was the illusion that Xu Shu gave Hua Lao an expert in weaving and making talismans, which made Hua Lao's self-confidence explode and began to swell.
Xu Shu didn't want to cause more trouble, and he tolerated even Xiao Xu's embezzlement of Qi coins.
Near noon, a new notice from Wei Chang came out, and everyone went underground again to continue the sacrifice.
After completing the training, Xu Shu's energy was restored. Hua Lao, who thought that his skills in making talismans had greatly improved, was even more confident and determined to compete for the first place in the list of the most talismans made.
Before Mr. Hua rolled up his sleeves, Xu Shu gave him a sleeping gift package, and then changed their Huohuan clothes.
With this rare opportunity, Xu Shu continued to refine the advanced fireball talisman.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.
This morning, in the secret refining room in the southwest corner of the cave, Wei Chang, who was dressed in black robe, stood opposite Xing Kaiding, who had a dark face.
In front of the two of them, a surging ground fire glowed brightly.
This secret refining room belongs exclusively to Wei Chang, a senior talisman master.
Also owning a refinery is Luo Shida.
The two refining rooms are exactly the same, but the earth vein in Wei Chang's refining room is the eye of the entire earth vein, and the energy is purer.
The earth fires in other places were as dim as white light, but the earth veins in Wei Chang's refining room were shining brightly.
Wei Chang and Xing Kaiding faced each other for a long time. Seeing the knot on Wei Chang's brow getting bigger and bigger, Xing Kaiding finally couldn't help it anymore, "Old Wei, how long will it take?"
Wei Chang muttered something in his mouth, and with a big move of his hand, a jade-colored hairpin came out from the earth veins. When he saw the dark gray color in the hairpin, Wei Chang took a breath and said, "We can't wait any longer. Wait any longer. If the earth veins continue to weaken, it will be impossible to support the sacrifice to refine a Flame King Talisman."
Xing Kaiding said coldly, "I know I can't wait, but I want to know what is going on. How can the earth's veins weaken for no reason?
Almost none of the collected fireball talismans were retained, and all were released. This refining and releasing consumed a lot of resources in vain.
Now, you tell me that the ley lines are still weak. Why is this? "
Wei Chang shook his head, "I don't understand, I really don't understand. Logically speaking, the energy of the earth's veins is extremely restrained and will not be released easily.
Unless someone is secretly stealing energy from the earth's veins, such as refining other talismans. "
"Then what are you waiting for? If there is a problem, it must be Luo Shida. No one else has this ability except him."
Xing Kaiding moved and left.
Wei Chang blocked the door, "Envoy Zuo, don't act blindly. Even though Luo Shida is a high-level talisman master, I understand his level. Even if he is lucky enough to refine an advanced talisman.
It is absolutely impossible to refine so many advanced magic talismans in a short period of time.
What can weaken the earth veins here by an order of magnitude cannot be done by just one or two advanced magic talismans, let alone more than ten.
Luo Shida has no such ability. "
"In addition to Luo Shida, will there be other experts sneaking in?"
Xing Kaiding's ideas immediately get to the root of the problem.
Wei Chang said, "Logically speaking, the possibility is not high. I used a jade fire hairpin to quietly track it, and I didn't find any high fire energy fluctuations here. In other words, no one hid the magical talisman.
However, in this chaotic world, any evil things may happen. Ten thousand times of caution is not too many times, but one carelessness may kill you. "
"check!"
Xing Kaiding said, "There is no point in internal investigation. We can only investigate externally and check the relationships between the characters to see what the activities of this group of people are since they came here. What are the trends in the circle of friends?"
Wei Chang nodded, "I agree, but will the movement be too big? We have managed to save this little capital in Dongdu over the years. It would be a pity if it was wasted on this matter."
Xing Kaiding shook his head, "Is this a small matter? If there is a problem with the Flame King Talisman, the president will be without a helping hand, and the hope of entering the secret realm of rotation to snatch the treasure will be drastically reduced.
This matter is related to our life and death, how can we say it is trivial? "
Wei Chang said sternly, "This is a dereliction of duty. What should we do now? Will Yan Wang Fu Lian stop practicing?"
"Of course I have to practice!"
"If you want to practice it, you have to practice it immediately. If you delay it, no one knows whether this earth vein can still support the Flame King Talisman. There is another problem. Once the Flame King Talisman is started to be refined, it will be a big treasure to have it. Probability, but the talisman machine is easily difficult to control. If it is not done properly, these talisman masters..."
"Do I need to say more about what is more important? There is nothing with a higher priority than the sacrifice and refining of the Flame King Talisman. Even if it costs Xing's life, Xing will not hesitate."
"Since you don't care about the lives of these Talisman Masters, there's nothing to investigate."
Wei Chang's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
"How to say?"
Xing Kaiding became interested.
Wei Chang said, "I originally thought that I would try my best to control the talisman machine and prevent it from being released randomly. If I tie these guys back, they can be used as talisman-making machines, which is also a huge resource.
But it is not easy to control the talisman machine, since Zuo Shi means that he will only try his best to ensure that the talisman is completed.
I expanded the formation and moved all the talisman boys in, catching them all in one fell swoop. "
