On this day, Tang Ping opened Qian Chao's courtyard door again, but this time Qian Chao was not in the courtyard.
Hearing the knock on the door, Qian Chao in the room saw Tang Ping through the window, and said, "Here."
"Shouldn't you be refining weapons in Chengqi Hall? How can you hide and relax at home?"
Tang Ping walked in while talking. She saw Qian Chao standing behind the desk, holding a pen in his hand and holding his breath to write something. The unusual paper placed on the desk was a piece of paper. There was no ink in the yellow talisman paper, but the inkstone next to it was replaced by a tea cup. In the tea cup, Qian Chao didn't know what kind of cinnabar was mixed, and it was as red as blood.
Qian Chao seemed to be showing off, or perhaps he really had to concentrate on drawing the talisman, but he didn't answer. He was holding the pen in his right hand, and making seals with his left hand. The tip of the pen dipped in cinnabar was still trembling slightly when he moved towards the talisman paper. , but after putting down the pen, it became very smooth. Tang Ping didn't recognize what Qian Chao wrote on the talisman paper. He saw that the ink pen was turning around on it, and it looked like writing and painting very quickly. A full picture.
After finishing the painting, Qian Chao breathed a sigh of relief. Tang Ping looked at the things on the paper and then glanced at Qian Chao. Only then did he realize that Qian Chao's face was slightly red.
"Is this making talismans? Why is your face so red?" Tang Ping asked.
"Drawing this thing is much more labor-intensive than drawing a fan. Every time you draw a picture, you lose some spiritual energy, so naturally you will be a little tired."
Qian Chao put down his pen as he spoke, picked up the talisman, blew on it gently, and then looked at it, seemingly satisfied.
"Then what's the use of this talisman?"
"When this talisman is used, it will be terrible if it sticks to people's bodies. It can attract thunder from the sky. If this talisman is stuck to the body, it will have to bear the impact of the thunder."
"Is it so powerful? Have you tried it?" Tang Ping looked a little unconvinced.
Qian Chao smiled and shook the talisman in his hand. Then Tang Ping saw that the winding runes on the talisman began to light up, and the talisman paper suddenly stood as straight as an iron plate. , as if it could fly out at any time, and then Qian Chao stopped his hand, and the brilliance on the talisman dimmed.
After doing this, Qian Chao said: "Of course I have tried it. Oh, by the way, give me some more of your spiritual wine later. Ordinary water, spiritual spring water, spiritual tea and spiritual wine. I have tried them all. Only The best talisman is made by mixing spiritual wine with cinnabar. Well, you can actually make it with the blood of monsters, but that's the way to make a 'dirty talisman', and I don't want to use it."
Then Qian Chao suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and said a little embarrassedly: "Well, the pens used to make talismans are also particular. The hair used on the pen tip is naturally taken from monsters or spiritual beasts. The quality of monsters The higher the grade, the better the pen will be. I'm thinking about your little white tail..."
"Shut up! Don't even think about it!"
"How stingy!"
After the joke, Qian Chao glanced at Tang Ping and asked, "You don't look right today. What happened?"
"I'm afraid you don't know yet, but that Han Tian is back!"
"Well, I already know about this. The senior brothers in Chengqi Hall said it."
"Oh, what about the two brothers Luo Ying and Luo Bin going to find Han Tian? Do you know that?"
"Well, that's what the senior brothers in the Chengqi Hall were talking about. I heard that Han Dan knelt down in front of Luo Ying and Luo Bin, kowtowed and confessed, begging for their forgiveness, and said that Luo Ying and Luo Bin were the last ones. I scolded Han Tian and then left, right?"
Tang Ping asked curiously: "Your Chengqi Hall is really a well-informed place. Hey, what do you think when you hear this news?"
Qian Chao said: "Don't talk about me first, let's talk about you first. What do you think about this matter?"
Tang Ping heard Qian Chao's tone, looked at Qian Chao's eyes again, and asked: "It seems that you are not going to do anything anymore? Is it possible that we let him assassinate you outside once and forget about it?"
Qian Chao smiled and said: "I remember the last time you came to my place and told me about this, Han Tian had not shown up at that time. In fact, even if we go to find him now, believe it or not, this Han Tian will definitely be in front of you. I can’t afford to kneel down and then beg for your forgiveness? If that’s the case, what will you do?”
"Hmph!" Tang Ping said bitterly, "Even if I can't do it, I can still find a way to get rid of him!"
The last time she went out, she experienced life and death. Tang Ping still felt hatred in her heart when she thought about Han Tian behind the scenes.
Qian Chao naturally knew that Tang Ping could indeed do it. Tang Bonian had many apprentices, including Fairy Guhuo. If Tang Ping had this intention, as long as he was willing to open his mouth and ask for help, Han Tian would definitely disappear without a sound. Lose.
But this girl is just talking happily. If she really had such thoughts, she would not come to Qian Chao to talk about this matter.
"If you really have this idea, I'm afraid Han Tian has disappeared by now. You have also said more than once, 'There is no need to ask our elders for things we can do ourselves.' You are not willing to ask your elders. Your senior brothers and sisters You'll be even less willing to speak there, right?"
Tang Ping nodded after hearing this.
Qian Chao asked again: "Putting aside these issues, do you think this Han Tian will attack us again?"
Tang Ping had never thought about this question. She was stunned and said, "How can he attack us now?"
"Suspicion, I said it. You see, you came to me now to talk about this matter, and you feel happy thinking about how to retaliate against him. This shows that you are still thinking about him, and he is not the same. With his intelligence, it is natural I can also guess what you are thinking. Instead of being plotted by you in the future, why not eliminate you in advance?"
Tang Ping immediately said after hearing this: "Yes! According to what you said, we should find a way to deal with him."
"So you don't plan to ask for help from your elders or brothers, but we are going to find a way to get revenge on our own?"
"Well, if you want to take revenge, you will naturally feel happy if you take it yourself."
After hearing this, Qian Chao smiled and said, "Well, I quite agree with what you said."
But when the conversation changed, Qian Chao said again: "But if Han Tian has been in the sect for a long time and we never have a chance, what will you do?"
"Then just wait, sooner or later he will go out one day."
"Well, that's true. If we intercept Han Tian outside the sect in a few days, think about it. If he kneels on the ground, he will first slap himself with his bow from left to right, and then burst into tears. I beg you to let him go, what will you do?"
"This..." Tang Ping was speechless. Yes, if it was true as Qian Chao said, could she really harden her heart and kill Han Tian at once? It's one thing to be annoyed and angry, but it's another thing to actually get blood on your hands and take someone's life.
"Can he do that?" Tang Ping asked again.
"Why not? He has already knelt down to Luo Ying and Luo Bin, and he did it in front of everyone. Why do you think he can't kneel down to you?"
"No, do you know something? Why did you say something so strange today?" Tang Ping asked.
"It's not surprising," Qian Chao said, "I do know some things about Han Tian, but I don't know much now. Only when I find out in the future can I know more about this guy. But I bet that this guy Han Tian will stay in the sect for a long time, Luo Ying and Luo Bin, well, and Wenyuan and Lu Shuang. It is not difficult for him to deal with these people. He is only afraid of us. He will observe us for a while. time, and then make plans.”
"What about our time? Also, what do you know, and who did you find out from?"
"There is a female disciple in Bibotan in Shuiyun Valley named Han Ning. She was selected into the sect by the Han family in Xuanzhou. She and Han Tian are brother and sister. Well, they are very similar to the relationship between Wen Zhang and Wenyuan, but these two The relationship between individuals is both secretive and strange. It is supposed to be the relationship between brother and sister, and there should be nothing else involved. However, Han Tian seems to have other thoughts about this sister. The key is that Han Ning is actually... , this point... I can't figure it out, can there be such dirty things that go against normal ethics in this family?"
At this point, Qian Chao stopped talking. He saw Tang Ping's brows also wrinkled, and it seemed that he understood what he meant.
"No way, brother and sister can still be together... Where did you get this information from?" Tang Ping said with some disgust.
"A man named Cai Jian is well-informed and likes to inquire about other people's private matters. I learned about it from him."
After Tang Ping heard Cai Jian's name, a look of disgust appeared on her face. She had obviously heard of this man's reputation, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you associate with such a guy?"
"Actually, I have been curious from the beginning. Han Tian is certainly not a kind person, but based on my several experiences of dealing with him, this person is a person who thinks very highly of himself and is quite conceited. But he is just such a person. An arrogant person is willing to stoop to the side of a guy like Wen Zhang. Why? Is it just so that he can become the disciple of Senior Wen Mian through Wen Zhang? I don’t think so. This guy must have other plans. I have already known this. I doubt that, looking at the ideas he gave Wen Zhang, they were all bad ideas that made Wen Zhang fight. It was just that he ignored us in the process of acting and screwed up. In the current situation, we have to deal with him and It's not difficult, even if he starts to fight, he may not be able to win Brother Li, but I really want to know his background, why he is following Wen Zhang, and what is his real plot? So I found some... Well, a well-informed person can find out what Han Tian's real plan is by asking around and asking around, and whether there are any accomplices helping him behind the scenes. If what he plans is harmful to the sect or harmful to the sect, Of course we have to stop Shang Tianhe, and then someone will naturally deal with him. If what he is planning has nothing to do with the sect, and it is not a bad thing, then that’s it. If he is willing to be more calm in the future, it will be okay if he avoids us. It's not impossible to let him go, but if he still wants to have bad ideas on us, then we have to settle the accounts with him."
Tang Ping was still a little hesitant about whether to let Han Tian go, but she was more interested in what Qian Chao said about Han Tian's plot, so she asked: "Then... what do you think he is plotting?" ?”
"I still don't know much about it, so I can't deduce it. You don't have to inquire about the Han Ning I just mentioned when you go back, let alone get close to her. I have my own way to inquire about the information. Don't alarm her. Han Tian's In the planning, I estimate that this woman must be involved."
"It's not that Cai Jian who lied to you about spiritual stones and made up stories for you, right?"
"Don't worry, he's not the only one I'm asking for information about. We can corroborate each other, so I don't have to worry about him lying to me. And..." Qian Chao looked at Tang Ping, "Han Tian is just the first person to really plot against us, and the few of us The road in this world of spiritual practice has just begun. I will probably encounter people like this again in the future. Being more informed and knowing more things will be good for us all. Therefore, you don’t count those people who gave me information. Like it, I still want to continue dealing with them.”
"Well, that makes sense. Among us, you are probably the most suitable."
"There is something else I want to tell you. Recently, I met a person named Shang Jie, who opened a shop in Ruixuan Town outside Zong. I am now trying to find out about this person. If he is suitable, I will I plan to sell some of the spiritual weapons I refined through him. As I said last time, I don’t want to be sent by Keishiyuan. It is always not good to let others know our whereabouts. When we go out again, we will I refined the materials that came back and asked him to sell them. The spiritual stones we get will be divided among us. It will definitely be more than the spiritual stones we get from doing errands. Besides, those materials were originally obtained by everyone's efforts outside, so we can't Let me get it alone, don’t forget, Sister Yan’s elixirs are still distributed to everyone.”
"Well, that's fine. Are you going to tell Brother Li, Brother Lu and Sister Yan before you go out next time?"
"Yes, if you don't go to the Imperial Academy to receive orders, everyone must agree."
…
Time passed very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day of Zongnei Helou Small Market. As usual, Qian Chao and other five people gathered again at Lu Pingchuan's place.
This time Qian Chao took out a piece of armor that he specially refined for Lu Pingchuan. The protective power of this armor was much stronger than the one Lu Pingchuan wore before. Qian Chao referred to his own shield refining method. A lot of work was put into this piece of armor. Qian Chao arranged a formation to restrain the five elements on almost every armor piece. Several layers of armor pieces were stacked on top of each other, making them extremely tight but not affecting Lu Pingchuan's punching and kicking. The leather armor is also made of the evil insect leather obtained last time. The evil insect leather is far tougher than the ordinary monster leather. It is more than enough to make leather armor alone, but Qian Chao uses it as an armor material. Inside, therefore, Lu Pingchuan's armor was unparalleled in terms of protective power alone in the sect.
"Hehe, it's really good. Brother Qian, I think this armor is much stronger than the last one."
Lu Pingchuan ran into his room and put on the armor anxiously. He was immediately satisfied and then kept showing off in front of everyone.
"Brother Li, this is yours. This leather armor is also made of the leather of the evil insect. It is much stronger than the one you are wearing." Qian Chao took out another leather armor and gave it to Li Jian.
Li Jian smiled and took it, and when he touched it with his hand, he knew that what Qian Chao said was true.
"Hey, Mr. Qian, where's ours?" Tang Ping said from the side.
"Both of them are. The ones worn by Girl Tang and Sister Yan are much stronger than the ones they wore before."
The armors given to Tang Ping and Yan Xuan are naturally much lighter, and the protective power cannot be compared with Lu Pingchuan's, but in terms of protective power, it is also a rare and superior product.
Qian Chao then said two things.
The first thing was the matter of Han Tian. Qian Chao told the story about Han Tian's appearance in the sect again. He also told the story about Luo Ying and Luo Bin going to find Han Tian. He also told how he found out about Han Tian. He also said that, in the end, he said that there is no need to trouble Han Tian for the time being. If he gives up from now on, they can live in peace with each other, but if he has evil intentions again, he will have to settle a general account with him no matter what. .
Regarding Qian Chao's statement, Yanxuan was the first to nod. She was relatively soft-hearted, but she hoped that Han Tian would return to his lost ways and stop causing trouble.
Li Jian didn't care. He made up his mind that if that person came to cause trouble again, he would stab him to death without leaving any further trouble.
Lu Pingchuan first scolded Han Tian, and then fell silent. He always followed Qian Chao's lead.
Tang Ping nodded when she saw this. She knew that Qian Chao had plans for Han Tian, so she asked Qian Chao to get things done first and dig deeper to see what Han Tian was planning.
The second thing is that Qian Chao proposed that he would no longer go to the Jingshiyuan to receive missions when he went out in the future. He would refine the materials obtained from outside the sect into tools and sell them, and the resulting spiritual stones would be divided equally among several people. First of all, there are not only a lot of spiritual stones, but also people with ulterior motives cannot find traces of several people outside the Jingshiyuan.
After Qian Chao finished speaking, Li Jian, Yan Xuan and others did not speak, so Tang Ping spoke first.
"I think Qian's method is okay. Anyway, those materials were all obtained by all of us outside. It's just a matter of Qian's refining. There's no such thing as anyone taking advantage of others. This way, we can make a lot of profits. When I go out, I no longer have to be restricted by those missions. I can go wherever I want outside. I feel more free than before. Moreover, I don’t have to hand over the spiritual herbs I got outside to Jingshiyuan. Sister Yan can still Make a few more batches of elixirs."
When Tang Ping said this, Li Jian and Yan Xuan both nodded. As for Lu Pingchuan, he didn't care about this.
A few people had lunch at Lu Pingchuan's place, and then Tang Ping took them to the Crane Tower for a walk before leaving.
