As one would expect, the days of leisure are short-lived.
On the fourth day after arriving at Feiyu Village, Jiao Yu and Mo Xiao summoned everyone to lecture. The general meaning is that Xuanli Sect invaded the countryside, killed innocent people indiscriminately, violated the rules of immortality, and caused the death of ten Yunchuan Immortal Sect disciples, so they should be punished in the most severe way. For the sake of morality and justice, Yunchuan Immortal Sect General and Feiyu Zhuang joined forces to uproot and eradicate Xuanli Sect.
However, in a battle two months ago, although the Xuanli Sect also suffered heavy casualties, there were still sect leader Wen Hong, two foundation-building monks, and more than thirty Qi Refining disciples. In order to win the final battle, careful planning and preparation must be made. Three days later, Mo Xiao led people to Xuanlimen first, and Jiao Yu and Master Ji followed them, each memorizing the map, formations, etc. of Xuanlimen.
After the lecture, everyone dispersed.
Yu Ye also returned to the room, sat at the wooden table in front of the window, and looked at the jade slip in his hand.
The jade slips were refined by Feiyu Village, and included the map, formations, and related matters of the Xuanli Sect. Master Ji and Jiao Yu made thorough preparations and took great pains!
And uprooting and eradicating the Xuanli Sect would mean destroying the sect, right? Didn’t the former Daze Dao Sect also suffer the same unreasonable disaster? But he said it nicely, what is morality and what is justice? Such self-deceiving lies are just fooling ghosts.
Yu Ye dropped the jade slip, with a self-deprecating smile on his face.
The various evil deeds of the disciples of Yunchuan Immortal Sect once made him hate him to the bone. Who would have thought that as time passed, he would also become an accomplice of evil people.
Is this a cycle of heaven or a trick of fate?
"Tuk, Tuk—"
The door was not closed, and there was a knocking sound on the door. Then someone walked in, raised his hand and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Yu, excuse me!"
Ji Guan?
Yu Ye once liked Feiyu Village's wealth and comfort, and envied Master Ji's good fortune. However, when he heard about the origin of the feud between Feiyu Village and Xuanlimen, the view he had three days ago no longer existed.
The cause of the feud between the two families was that the children of the Ji family met a female monk when they were out, and they teased and humiliated her. Unexpectedly, she was not an ordinary casual cultivator, but a female disciple of the Xuanli Sect. As a result, she retaliated and lost her life. Lord Ji Zhuang was eager for revenge and was afraid of the power of the Xuanli Sect. He happened to get a piece of news, saying that Wenhong of the Xuanli Sect had a close relationship with the enshrinement of Lanling City in Qi State and had obtained a rare treasure. Lord Ji Zhuang sent a message to Yunchuan Xianmen about this, and took the opportunity to invite strong reinforcements to help him deal with Xuanlimen. As expected, Jiao Yu led people to Feiyu Manor, and then aggressively attacked Xuanlimen. Unexpectedly, Wen Hong, the head of the Xuanli Sect, was extremely tough, and the two sides started fighting, and now the quarrel has become unmanageable.
Just imagine, such a Feiyu Village, although it has green mountains, green waters and pastoral scenery, is also a place harboring filth and evil.
"Oh, Brother Ji, what are your orders?"
Yu Ye stood up.
"no no!"
Ji Guan waved her hands repeatedly and said with a humble smile: "Senior Brother Yu is an expert in the Immortal Sect. How dare I entrust you to someone else? I'm here specifically today. Please give me some advice!"
"Advice..."
Yu Ye wanted to say a few perfunctory words before closing the door and thanking the guests. Suddenly, his mind suddenly moved and he said, "I have something to do. I wonder if Brother Ji can help me?"
"It's a great honor for me!"
"I still need a few things to refine my talisman. Can you help me buy a jar of cinnabar and some animal skins?"
"It's a small matter, please wait a moment, Senior Brother Yu!"
Ji Guan cupped his hands, turned around and walked out.
Yu Ye was a little surprised.
There was not much left of the armor-breaking talisman refined last time, so he wanted to refine more and keep them for later use. However, he never found the spirit beast skin. Unexpectedly, Ji Guan agreed to his request.
"Little junior brother!"
Another figure flashed at the door.
Leng Chen walked in and asked suspiciously, "What are you and the Ji family master doing sneakily?"
"What does it have to do with you!"
Yu Ye sat alone at the table, unwilling to pay attention.
"hehe!"
Leng Chen smiled, twirled his beard and said, "Junior brother, you are too worried. I have no intention of supervising and keeping track of you. I am just a little curious when I see the young master of the Ji family coming to visit!"
He was ignored and didn't mind. He stretched out his hand to pull the stool and sat down, then said: "Let's go to Xuanli Sect. A fierce battle is unavoidable. If I can make a great contribution, I will be of great use in the future!"
This senior brother likes to meddle in other people's business and actually worries about the future of his younger junior brother
Yu Ye didn't appreciate it, and sarcastically said: "You and I came all the way here just to eradicate a fairy sect that behaves well and is not afraid of force. It's okay not to take such credit!"
"This statement is biased!"
Leng Chen shook his head and said: "The Xuanli Sect killed the disciples of Feiyu Village, resulting in the death of ten of my disciples. If you are neither fearful of authority nor immoral, how can you call it a good conduct?"
Yu Ye asked back: "Should this lead to the destruction of the family?"
"There is no way for misfortunes or blessings, only people call it upon themselves!"
"If I was the one who killed ten immortal disciples, should I cut their bodies into pieces and die as atonement?"
Leng Chen turned around and looked.
Yu Ye was sitting at the wooden table nearby, playing with the jade slips in his hand, looking absent-minded.
Leng Chen quietly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "You kid, you talk so freely!"
Yu Ye said meaningfully: "Good deeds and evil deeds are rewarded, and reincarnation is the way of heaven."
"Senior Brother Yu..."
Someone walked into the room.
"Senior Brother Leng is also here. Allow me to introduce you to this—"
Ji Guan not only left and returned, holding a bunch of things in his hands, but also followed behind him a thin-looking middle-aged man, who introduced him: "This is my family uncle..."
The middle-aged man bowed his hands and saluted, saying: "Ji Yang, I have met two fellow Taoists!"
Yu Ye and Leng Chen had no choice but to stand up and return the courtesy.
Ji Guan put the things in his hands on the table.
He brought two clay pots, a clay bowl, a pen, a stack of talisman paper, and a stack of cut animal skins.
One pottery pot contains cinnabar, but what does the other pot hold?
Ji Guan stretched out his hand to signal and said: "My family uncle likes the art of talismans, and all the talismans in the village are refined by him. I heard that Senior Brother Yu is also a master of this art, so he came with me to ask for advice."
"ah……"
Yu Ye was stunned.
The Ji family is a cultivating family, so naturally there is no shortage of items for refining talismans. And he just wanted to ask for a few animal skins, but he actually recruited a master of talisman refining.
And Leng Chen also stared.
The little junior brother he was familiar with actually knew the art of refining talismans?
"Friend Yu!"
Ji Yang took a step forward, raised his hand and said: "This cinnabar is the top grade of cinnabar. It has the blood of the white tiger and the skin of the spirit fox. I have collected it for many years. The wolf pen and talisman paper are also good. I wonder if it applies to you?"
"Of course it applies!"
Yu Ye hurriedly raised his hand to thank him.
He also heard: "While my Taoist friend is refining the talisman, I want to observe and learn..."
"this……"
Yu Ye was stunned and speechless.
Ji Yang smiled apologetically and said: "Of course I understand the truth that the Dharma should not be spread to the outside world, so I prepared a hundred spiritual stones as a thank you gift and watched my fellow Taoists refine a talisman. Regardless of whether I gained anything or not, I immediately turned around and left." He He took out a ring and put it on the table, then bowed respectfully and said sincerely: "I live deep in the mountains, and it is rare to meet a master of the same Taoism. This opportunity is hard to come by, so I ask my Taoist friends to help me!"
"Senior Brother Yu!"
Ji Guan also bowed and saluted, begging Yu Ye to fulfill his uncle's wish.
Yu Ye looked at the uncle and nephew in front of him, as well as the pile of things on the table, and the ring containing one hundred spiritual stones, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Oh, it's not a bad idea to learn about Taoism, and you can also earn spiritual stones. It's a wonderful thing that kills two birds with one stone!"
Leng Chen said something sour, turned and walked towards the door.
"It's inconvenient for Leng to watch, sorry!"
Ji Guan was quite sensible, so he said goodbye and left, gently closing the door to prevent others from disturbing senior brother Yu while he was refining the talismans.
Ji Yang took a few steps back and said expectantly: "Fellow Taoist Yu, please——"
Yu Ye hesitated for a moment and nodded helplessly.
In the Immortal Sect, it is common to discuss Taoism and Dharma. And now that the matter has come to this, it seems that we can only show off one hand. One hundred spiritual stones should not be a loss.
Yu Ye composed himself and opened two clay pots.
Cinnabar is nothing more than cinnabar, similar to cinnabar. The tiger blood should be specially made. Even though it has been collected for many years, it is still bright red and has a strong fishy smell.
I haven’t used tiger blood before, so I’ll give it a try.
Yu Ye took the cinnabar and tiger blood and put them in a pottery bowl, squeezed out a drop of blood essence to mix it, then spread out a piece of animal skin and reached out to pick up the wolf pen.
"I only refine one talisman?"
"It's a deal!"
After receiving the confirmation, Yu Ye took a breath, then held his breath and concentrated, raised the wolf pen and quickly dipped it in the cinnabar. Then his wrist shook, the pen moved, and then the light flickered slightly, and a talisman was formed in an instant. He slowly put down the pen in his hand and said with a guilty conscience: "What a joke!"
In order to avoid suspicion, Ji Yang stood five feet away, but his eyes were blank, and he said to himself: "With tiger blood, why use essence blood? Taoist friends' refining method is different from the Lihuo Talisman and Dragon Subduing Talisman." The symbols are quite different..."
Yu Ye shrugged his shoulders, noncommittal.
The first time he tried tiger blood, he couldn't explain why. And he only knows how to refine armor-breaking talismans and doesn't understand other talismans.
"You are worthy of being a high disciple of the Immortal Sect. At such a young age, your talisman refining techniques are already so skillful and quite ancient!"
"Tai Shang Ling Fu" is quite old, but it has nothing to do with the Immortal Sect. And if you draw a talisman all year round, how can you not be skillful?
"Can I ask for the name of the talisman?"
"Break armor."
"Armor-breaking talisman? I have never heard of it. It must be an ancient talisman. I don't know what it is used for..."
Before Ji Yang finished speaking, he bowed deeply and said apologetically: "Forgive me for being abrupt, take my leave!"
He turned and opened the door.
Since there was an agreement in advance, and now I have watched the refining of a talisman, although I still haven't fully understood it, I can only keep my promise.
Yu Ye then saw each other off without forgetting to pick up the ring.
I accidentally earned a hundred spiritual stones, plus a jar of cinnabar, a jar of tiger blood, and more than 20 animal skins.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, walk slowly!"
Yu Ye walked outside the door.
Ji Yang and Ji Guan have gone away in a hurry.
But he saw that the yard was full of people, not only the two seniors Mo Xiao and Jiao Yu, but also senior brothers and sisters such as Leng Chen, Che Ju, Chen Qi, Bai Zhi, Pu Tong, Liang Qiao, etc., all of them were staring at him. But his eyes are very different and his expression is inexplicable.
The uncles and nephews of the Ji family made a lot of noise, and now everyone knows that there is a master of talisman refining in the same sect.
Yu Ye raised his eyebrows, threw up the gift ring in his hand, grabbed it again, and said with a smile: "I am refining the talisman. I don't mind your observation and advice, and the price is one hundred spiritual stones..."
