On September 17th, Lin Jie spent a day or two familiarizing himself with the process and techniques of making talismans. I chose a relatively simple and versatile magic walking charm and attached it to my feet to increase my walking speed.
First try it out with some ordinary paper.
The painting was very abstract at the beginning, but it became more or less the same later on, but fortunately it was not superfluous.
On September 18th, the first time he drew the talisman, he failed and wasted a piece of spiritual paper. Lin Jie was a little sad and decided to keep it as a souvenir.
Fortunately, it was successful the second time. Although it didn't look very good, seven of the next eight were successful and one failed. The success rate is quite impressive.
Recently, Lin Lanlan sent me meals. She is so good at taking care of others. I gave her two magical talismans as reward.
On 9.19, I took Lin Lanlan to the small town market to sell the talismans.
I harvested 240 spirit stones, and then bought 20 pieces of talisman paper, which cost 200 spirit stones. It seems that making talismans is much more profitable than refining elixirs.
The remaining 40 spirit stones were used to buy one or two colorful chickens. The price was not cheap, but the merchant claimed that they were specially raised by the sect and fed with spirit energy melons and fruits.
It's a great gimmick, but I don't know if it's true or not. Lin Lanlan's rice is delicious, but too vegetarian. I'm not a monk.
In the evening we had roast chicken, one per person, it was really delicious.
On September 20th, the elixir obtained in the small courtyard today is mature and can be started to make elixirs.
9.21. This time the alchemy was much smoother than last time. It only took one day. I feel that the quality is better than last time.
During this period, Lin Lanlan came to me and told me that a senior brother asked her to work in a small elixir garden, and she was given fifty spiritual stones every day.
There are many spiritual medicine gardens within the sect, and the small ones can generally be obtained by disciples with some merit points. However, meritorious deeds are much harder to obtain than spiritual stones. Only tasks assigned by the sect may have merit points.
He really couldn't bear to part with his lovely junior sister. Without her by his side, he simply couldn't bear to cook by himself. Of course, it wasn't that it was unpalatable, but that he was lazy. After all, a monk's body is very resistant to hunger.
On September 22nd, I went to the market alone to sell elixirs. Xu Linfan didn't know where to go to get some shit. He had been away from home in the past few days.
The elixirs were still very popular, and they were all sold out in a short time. Ten spirit-gathering pills and ten awakening pills were sold.
I harvested 750 spirit stones, then bought some seeds, which cost 500 spirit stones.
Because I wanted to try the second-level elixir, I bought two seeds of Purple Air Grass. One hundred and one seeds, Lin Jie took a breath when buying them.
…
On September 26, three days had passed since the seeds were planted. All the other seeds had germinated, but the purple spirit grass showed no signs of germination.
In addition, the spiritual stones used to set up the spirit-guiding array had been scrapped and lost their spiritual energy. He spent ten spiritual stones to repair them again.
Something is wrong, nine out of ten times something is wrong. Lin Jie sat meditating on his bed and looked at his own cultivation. He concentrated on practicing for a few days, and his spiritual power increased so much.
It seems to be close to the middle stage of foundation building, although there is an element of taking the Spirit Gathering Pill in it.
After Lin Jie practiced hard all night, when the next day came, spiritual energy circulated throughout his body. The last spiritual energy circulated in his body and slowly spit out.
I'm in the middle stage of foundation building, can my body be considered mediocre? Was the elder who recruited the disciples at the beginning blind?
However, it seems that in my memory, my speed of cultivation improvement is indeed mediocre. Otherwise, it would be impossible to reach the early stage of foundation building in more than ten years.
Hey, just think of it as a blessing given to me by the God of this world. There is no point in thinking so much. I went out for a walk, but I was so exhausted at home.
Then he followed his habit and went to Xu Linfan's yard first.
Coincidentally, the other party happened to be at home.
"Where have you been these past few days?"
Lin Jie saw Xu Linfan opening the door. His eyes were sleepy and there were black lines under his eyes.
"Forget it, I accepted a sect mission. I need to capture a night owl alive. It's really uncomfortable. I haven't caught it for several days. If I hadn't been cautious, I might have returned empty-handed."
The name sounds like the pUlS version of an owl, but I thought of this creature's habits and keen vision. The adult Night Owl's cultivation level can reach the early stage of pill formation. Xu Linfan couldn't hunt alone, so he thought it would be a team task.
"If you get it, it will be done. How many spiritual stones are there?"
Lin Jie asked curiously.
"200." He was a little frustrated.
"A little less." Lin Jie frowned. Thinking he was bullied by his teammates.
Who knew he was serious.
"There are two junior sisters in the main team, so we gave them a little more points."
Haha, how did this guy awaken the dog-licking attribute? I'll give a junior sister a punch.
"Okay, you're fine today. Come accompany me to the town."
"What are you doing? I still want to take a rest?"
After that, close the door.
"Listen to the music."
"Let's go, don't keep the girls waiting."
…
It was still early in the morning, so Lin Jie went to the "talisman-making shop" first. The last time he made talismans gave him the idea that making talismans was simpler and more profitable than refining elixirs.
He just wanted to buy some more difficult talisman drawing techniques. However, after searching for a long time, I only found a picture about "Thunder Drawing Talisman." The painting method is exquisite.
Moreover, the price of three middle-grade spiritual stones also made him take a breath of cold air. His net worth is only about three middle-grade spiritual stones. Could it be that it is for me?
Well, all causes and effects are coming to my body.
While walking with the talisman drawing method in hand, I thought, today's trip to Qingyue Pavilion seems to be Xu Linfan bleeding. Xu Linfan on the side was stupidly picking up a novel, looking quite interested.
The old man handed out the "Exquisite Drawing of Thunder Drawing Talisman". The old man was smoking a dry cigarette. When he saw it, he looked at Lin Jie with strange eyes for a moment.
Why are you looking at me like this again? It was the same way last time.
"As a merchant, I need to remind you that the pen you bought last time cannot draw thunder symbols. So think carefully before making a decision. The three middle-grade spiritual stones for the foundation-building monk are already a lot, and you should spend more on more Wherever needed.”
It's quite conscientious, but I like it that a lot of money can't buy. Lin Jie just hesitated for a moment and bought it.
When I think about facing the enemy in the future, I will wear a dark robe and a mysterious mask, and quietly watch the enemy rush toward me. And I quietly took out a shiny thunder talisman from my pocket and snapped my fingers beautifully.
"Thunder roared with power, the darkness was instantly destroyed, the sky exploded, and a fierce thunder struck down, leaving only the trembling afterimage of the enemy."
Thinking about the picture in my mind, yes, it’s very cool.
The old man didn't try to persuade him any more. After Lin Jie paid for the spirit stones, he only had more than two hundred spirit stones left. Once back before liberation. Hold the book in your hands and stand at the door.
Xu Linfan bought two story-telling novels and looked at Lin Jie curiously.
"What did you just buy? Why is it so expensive?"
"How to draw the lightning talisman."
"The thunder talisman is very handsome, but it's a pity that I don't have the talent to draw talisman."
Xu Linfan tried formations, talismans, and alchemy, but nothing worked. He could only say that he was born to work hard.
"But I just heard the old man say you can't use it. Why did you buy it?"
"I came up with an idea and I'll be able to use it soon."
Lin Jie showed a sly smile and his eyes shone. Thinking about your own ideas.
"What do you think? Tell me. Do you need my help?"
Xu Linfan put his arm on Lin Jie's shoulder and asked with a smile.
"You'll know after a while."
Lin Jie kept quiet and kept silent about this. Then the two of them went to Qingyue Pavilion.
Lin Jie waited until sunset before heading home, while Xu Linfan stayed there drunkenly, treating it as his home.
