Shang Xia returned to Futang station one day early. In addition to preparing to start making talismans tomorrow, another reason was to get several other third-level martial talisman making methods from Futang.
Among the several production methods of third-level martial talismans collected by Futang, the one that currently makes Shang Xia the most coveted is the production method of "Broken Void Green Spirit Talisman".
This third-level martial talisman can break the seal on the surface of storage items without damaging the items contained therein, and Shang Xia has been coveting it for a long time.
But before that, Shang Xia needs to find Ren Huan first and get a few third-order talismans from him that belong to him.
Returning to Futang Station again, when the people here saw Shang Xia, their expressions showed a bit of awkward respect.
A few days ago, Shang Xia made third-level talismans. The success rate of 50% was not only high for a young, newly promoted third-level talisman master, it was simply amazing!
This matter was publicly recognized by Gong Hang, Fan Yuanhui and Zhang Haogu, and there was no doubt about it.
The status of people in the Talisman Hall is naturally determined by their level of talisman-making skills.
As the only three third-level Talisman Masters in Futang, Shang Xia should be respected by the entire Futang.
It's just because Shang Xia is too young. He is still a senior student in the college. There are many people here when it comes to seniority and seniority, and almost everyone is above him. Therefore, this respect is mixed with A bit embarrassing.
Shang Xia didn't care about other people's thoughts, and he only responded calmly to other people's complicated emotions.
However, Shang Xia's plan to find Ren Huan ultimately failed.
"What, he is not here now and was invited by people from the Jintang?"
Shang Xia looked at the third-level talisman craftsman named Qiao in front of him with some surprise.
This person has extensive experience in the Talisman Hall and is very skilled in making talisman paper. He is currently in charge of the talisman craftsman making talisman paper in the Talisman Hall.
"Mr. Qiao, do you know what the Jintang people asked Brother Ren to do?"
Shang Xia asked politely to the talisman craftsman named Qiao in front of him.
Talisman Master Qiao smiled bitterly and said: "Little Talisman Master Shang, Qiao doesn't know about this matter, and no one from the formation hall will tell me!"
Shang Xia asked again: "Who knows about the Talisman Hall at this time? Mr. Zhang and the two Talisman Masters Gong and Fan?"
Talisman Master Qiao said: "General Manager Zhang was also invited by the people from the formation hall, and Master Gong Talisman was also there. Master Fan was in seclusion in a secret room to make talismans, so he was not disturbed."
Shang Xia looked slightly disappointed and said, "I would like to trouble Mr. Qiao to have someone send all the materials needed to make the talisman to my secret room. I plan to start making the talisman tomorrow."
Qiao Talisman Master smiled and said: "This is what you have to do, so Xiao Shang Talisman Master can rest assured."
Shang Xia was about to say goodbye when he suddenly remembered something and said with a smile, "There is one more thing I want to ask Mr. Qiao."
Talisman Master Qiao quickly waved his hand and said, "There's no such thing as 'asking for advice'. If you have any questions for Xiao Shang Talisman Master, just ask him. Qiao will definitely tell you everything."
Shang Xia smiled and said, "Mr. Qiao, does he know a deacon named Gai Qingzhu in the college?"
Talisman Master Qiao laughed when he heard this and said, "The little Talisman Master Shang is also trying to cover the lotus in the deacon's hand?"
Shang Xia was stunned and said: "Why, it seems that many people are looking for him recently?"
Qiao Fujiang smiled and said: "There are indeed so many that Deacon Gai has been hiding recently and cannot be found."
After leaving from Qiao Fujiang, Shang Xia originally planned to go
Looking for a way to make the "Breaking Void Green Spirit Talisman", but gave up because Zhang Haogu and the two Talisman Masters were away, so they could only temporarily return to the talisman-making secret room that they had rearranged for themselves.
Qiao Talisman and others were very fast. Not long after Shang Xia returned to the secret room, someone quickly sent him all the materials needed to make the talisman.
Shang Xia already knew through understanding that the third-level talisman masters in Futang, according to normal procedures, would not make third-level talismans more than three times a month.
That's three times, not three.
This frequency of making talismans usually does not have any adverse effects on the third-level talisman masters themselves.
Of course, if necessary, a third-level talisman master can easily increase the number of talismans per month to four, and can maintain this frequency for a long time.
In an emergency, a third-level talisman master can actually increase the frequency of talisman making one more time, but this will inevitably cause a certain amount of harm to the talisman master himself, which will not last long, and will require a long period of training afterwards. recover.
However, the current situation in Zuowangpo is even more urgent, which forces the two third-level talisman masters, Gong and Fan, to produce third-level talismans in an overloaded manner.
Although the difficulty of making the third-level talisman itself is the lowest among all third-level talismans, and Gong and Fan can be regarded as senior third-level talisman masters, and their talisman-making skills are extremely sophisticated, but at present, this level of talisman-making At such an intensity, it will definitely severely damage the vitality of the two of them.
In this case, the two third-level Talisman Masters had to use some potions to recover.
In fact, Shang Xia was able to use convincing talisman-making techniques to join in the production of talisman, which actually greatly reduced the burden on Gong and Fan.
After the visitor left, Shang Xia looked at the materials for making talismans that were delivered one by one, and soon noticed a palm-sized round jade box containing medicine.
This is the second-level potion "Qianji Yangshen Powder" specially used by Tongyou Academy for Futang Talisman Masters. It can not only speed up recovery after the martial arts will is depleted, but also has a certain nurturing effect on the martial arts will.
This potion is not of high grade, it seems to be only second grade, but its value has increased sharply because it has a miraculous effect on restoring martial arts will.
The two third-level talisman masters, Gong and Fan, maintain a high-intensity production frequency of third-level talismans within two or three months. Their biggest reliance is the monthly supply of a box of "Qianji Yangshen Powder".
After Shang Xia re-adjusted his condition to the best, he directly opened the seal of the secret room and began to retreat to continue making the third-order talisman.
…………
Just when Shang Xia was in seclusion to make talismans, in the Taihang Mountain area at the junction of Cangyu and Jizhou, Shang Ke met Shang Pei who was hurriedly returning from the southern border of Sizhou.
"So, did you encounter any dangers on this trip?"
Shang Ke couldn't help but asked worriedly when he saw that Shang Pei was dusty and still full of evil spirits.
"It's just a few little thieves, don't worry about it!"
Shang Pei waved his hand carelessly, then took out a wooden box covered with seals, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I picked a glazed daisy during the autumnal equinox."
Shang Ke knew that the dangers Shang Pei encountered on the way must not be as downplayed as she showed, but since she did not want to say more and had returned safely, Shang Ke did not ask any more questions, but said happily: "Okay! Such a good thing Come, Xiaoxia has gathered one more advanced material. The rest depends on whether we can find another dragon-headed wintersweet for him before the winter solstice."
Shang Peidao said: "Dragon-headed wintersweet mostly grows in Yangzhou and Jingzhou. Although it is said that there are traces of this thing in the south of Xu and Yanzhou, after all,
It's rare, so it's probably not easy to get this thing. "
Shang Ke nodded, but then added: "Fortunately, there is still time. There are still three months until the winter solstice, which is enough for you and me to make a trip to Jingzhou and Yangzhou respectively."
…………
The location of the Formation Hall is actually not far from the Futang, and because the arrangement of the Futang is currently the top priority of Tongyou Academy, there are people coming and going here, and it is actually more lively than the Futang.
However, in a newly built large room in the center of the formation hall, several people are surrounding a simple sand table, and this sand table looks like a "Zi Wang Slope", but it is densely marked with many "Zu Wang Slope" Something that wasn't there originally.
"Manager Zhang, please tell me frankly. A good talisman formation must have some kind of wind and thunder power. Isn't this an extraneous problem in your talisman hall?"
The person who spoke was Ma Mingzheng, the third-level formation mage of the formation hall, who is currently in charge of all affairs of the formation hall.
This person has considerable seniority in the Formation Hall, and his status is similar to Gong Hang's position in the Fu Hall.
Zhang Haogu also said helplessly: "I have finished setting up the talisman array earlier. I am in a hurry than all of you! However, the time is too short, and it is not easy to raise such a large number of third-level talismans. Fortunately, Mr. Ren has it in his hands. This batch of wind and thunder leaves is a complete surprise. But if these leaves containing the power of wind and thunder are made into ordinary third-level talisman paper, it will really be a waste of this batch of good materials."
Ma Mingzheng said: "If we really want to add the power of wind and thunder to the talisman formation, the plan that our formation hall has prepared in advance will have to be significantly modified. Even the completed formation disk will have to be modified. It is too troublesome! "
As soon as Ma Mingzheng finished speaking, he heard Gong Hang's faint voice: "If the formation hall does not make changes, we will not have enough talisman paper to complete the production of the talisman, and the arrangement of the talisman array at Zuowangpo will have to be postponed. But if the talisman is Adding the power of wind and thunder to the formation may make everyone in the formation hall feel a little tired, but it will increase the power of the talisman formation considerably. Please consider the priorities here."
Ma Mingzheng was immediately dissatisfied when he heard this: "Mr. Gong, what you said is so reasonable..."
"Hey, don't be anxious, don't be anxious!"
Zhang Haogu saw that the momentum was not going right and spoke immediately, eliminating the quarrel that was about to break out. Then he looked at Ma Mingzheng and said, "Brother Ma, is there really nothing you can do?"
Zhang Haogu, Ma Mingzheng and Gong Hang are similar in age, and they were originally friends with each other.
It's just that now that Zhang Haogu has been promoted to the fourth level and the general manager of the Sutra Pavilion, and now has an overview of the layout of the talisman array, the status of the two parties is naturally different.
It's just that Zhang Haogu didn't want to put on airs in front of the two old brothers, and he still focused on persuasion in his words.
Fortunately, Ma and Gong would not really take Zhang Haogu's words seriously because of Zhang Haogu's politeness.
Just when Ma Mingzheng was pondering how to reply, a voice had already sounded: "It is not impossible to add the power of wind and thunder to the talisman array. You have to first let me see the power of wind and thunder contained in the wind and thunder leaves." How big! If it is enough, it is not impossible for us to make certain changes to the talisman array. Anyway, your talisman hall will not be able to gather a sufficient number of talismans for a while. But if the power of wind and thunder is not enough, it will not be worth the gain to modify the talisman array. ”
Zhang Haogu looked away when he heard the reputation, but saw that the speaker was Chu Jia, one of the three third-level formation masters in the formation hall. Ma Mingzheng also nodded slightly when he saw this, obviously agreeing with Chu Jia's statement.
Zhang Haogu gestured to Ren Huan, the third-level talisman craftsman who came with him, to hand over the wind and thunder leaves and several third-level talisman papers to the three third-level array masters in the formation hall for inspection, while secretly thinking that he had heard this a long time ago The old horse wanted to give way, and it turned out to be the case today.
