In the Wuling Sect, the cave of Senior Tian Zhi'an, and the door of Ma Hu's residence.
Of course, senior Tian Zhi'an is no longer in the cave. As a master of Jiuxuan's alchemy formation, Tian Zhi'an also rushed to the border with Muyang Sect along with the large group of people to confront many master monks of Muyang Sect. But today, for some reason, three women were standing at the door of Ma Hu's residence. They were Luo Ying, Wenyuan and Lu Shuang. The door was ajar, but these three women were standing there. Wait there.
Qian Chao came here because he helped Ma Hu repair the armor that was somewhat damaged in the battle and then sent it back. When he saw the formation at the door, he couldn't help but was stunned and secretly thought that these three senior sisters had nothing to do. Ma Hu is here. Could it be that Senior Brother Ma caused some trouble that made these guys come to his door?
Just as he was thinking about it, Luo Ying glanced at him and said hello:
"Boy Qian, are you here to see Ma Hu?"
"Uh...yes, why are the three senior sisters here? Are they also here to see Senior Brother Ma? Why don't you go in?" Qian Chao asked curiously.
"The three of us..." Luo Ying wanted to laugh when she heard that, "If the three of us come to find him together, wouldn't it be so beautiful that his liver trembles!"
Lu Shuang laughed when he heard this and said:
"Well, maybe that kid is having liver tremors right now... Ha!"
"Ah?" Qian Chao was confused after hearing this.
"Junior Brother Qian, please wait a moment," Wenyuan said from the side, "Yan Shuang is talking to Ma Hu inside."
"What!" Qian Chao was even more curious now. Didn't it mean that Yan Shuang's eye was injured and she was recuperating? Why did she come to Ma Hu so well, and they were still talking alone inside? Luo Ying and the three people stayed outside. What on earth is going on?
Seeing Qian Chao's expression, Luo Ying curled her lips and said:
"Boy Qian, don't tell me that you don't know what boy Ma is doing behind the scenes?"
Ma Hu had an idea behind his back... What other ideas could Ma Hu have? Are you just trying to do everything possible to make Yan Shuang his Taoist companion? Of course Qian Chao knew this. Hearing what Luo Ying said, Qian Chao felt embarrassed. After all, Yan Shuang was a stunning beauty in the world, and Ma Hu... Although he was also a disciple of a famous teacher... But no matter in terms of appearance, methods or His character is really far different from that of Yan Shuang, but who made Qian Chao and Ma Hu have a good relationship? Now that Luo Ying said this, Qian Chao felt that he was accomplices with Ma Hu. Somehow I felt a little embarrassed.
"Uh...hehe, didn't that girl Yan Shuang have an eye injury? Why did she come to Senior Brother Ma?"
"Hmph! Haven't you heard the rumors within the sect?" Luo Ying heard what Qian Chao said and knew that this kid was also a bit unsophisticated.
"Rumors...oh...I heard some, but they are just rumors after all, so I didn't pay much attention to them."
When Lu Shuang heard this, he suddenly remembered the rumors about Ma Hu, couldn't help but laugh, and said:
"The rumors say that Ma Hu is very unfavorable! How dare he take advantage of others' misfortune, and take advantage of others' unpreparedness. They say that Ma Hu repeatedly took advantage of Yan Shuang during the fights and attacked Yan Shuang. It's the feet, that's why I was caught with the injuries on my face, ha..."
Luo Ying also smiled and said:
"If I hadn't participated in the Cold Spring Valley tide, I might have believed what I heard. Who knew that Ma Hu was always like this..."
Naturally, Qian Chao had heard of this. At that time, he lamented that Senior Brother Ma's reputation was really not very good. He had obviously been fighting to protect Yan Shuang and had repeatedly risked his own life to save her. If he hadn't given her a gift in advance, Give him the armor, maybe this Ma Hu is either dead or seriously injured and is bedridden now. How come the news has been spread back to the sect, and what has been passed around has changed, and it has become like this?
Of course, Qian Chao later figured it out. If this was to blame, it was probably because of Ma Hu's poor reputation.
Wenyuan also smiled and said:
"Well, speaking of Junior Brother Qian's part, it's much more exciting. Wow, when Junior Brother Qian faced a powerful enemy, he was carefree and free-spirited with a feather fan and a silk scarf. While talking and laughing, he made the Dusha spin around, and with just a few clicks, he Let him disappear into ashes, haha!"
It was rare that Wenyuan also made a joke about Qian Chao.
"Uh... are they rumors after all? Dealing with Du Sha is not that easy. If I hadn't seen Senior Brother Cheng Qantang fighting with Du Sha and putting his life in danger, I might not have had the guts to provoke him."
Luo Ying said:
"Whatever you say, Mr. Qian, but if Dusha didn't bother Cheng Qantang at that time, but went directly to our place, well... that would be really difficult. Although Senior Brother Fan brought a few treasures, He went out, but in the end he used one to kill the fused guy and he also suffered some injuries. It can be seen that those treasures are not easy to use. For us Qi refining disciples, the burden is still too heavy. If Dusha were to kill us directly, and Brother Fan killed Dusha with the treasure he brought, then it would be difficult if the last guy who could merge came out. Well, since you can kill Dusha Except for one big enemy, we all have to thank you, but... Mr. Qian, I have never seen the formation you used to trap Du Sha. It seems to be related to spiritual veins. Alas, come to think of it, Those are supposed to be advanced formations, but I haven’t learned them yet, yet you actually know how to arrange them. What surprises me most is that you can actually change formations... This really impresses me!"
Most of what Luo Ying learned was related to formations, so she could also see some of the formations that Qian Chao originally used to deal with the evil beast and later trapped Dusha. At least she could see that Qian Chao finally saw it. When she killed Dusha, she had to use the power of the formation to strengthen herself to do it, but she couldn't understand it more deeply. Because of this, she valued Qianchao even more, especially this time. She also benefited from Qian Chao's spring valley tide. In the past, she had never thought that the Soul Locking Array could be jointly arranged like this. Moreover, the small wooden sign given by Qian Chao also inspired her. She used to use the Soul Locking Array in the past. At that time, he never dared to set foot in the formation.
Qian Chao didn't want to say more about this, and he couldn't say it. Could it be that he told Senior Sister Luo that he had a unique spell called "Blue Eyes Technique". Thanks to this spell, he could refine weapons, formations, and talismans. Have you made any achievements? The Blue Eyes Technique is as important to Qian Chao as Xiaobai is to Tang Ping. Therefore, even if Qian Chao can accept a disciple one day in the future, he must secretly observe the disciples for many years before choosing one with good conduct, strong character and thoughtfulness. Of course, the teaching of sensitive talents cannot be told to Senior Sister Luo in front of me.
"Uh...those are all..."
When Qian Chao was about to say something to stop him, Luo Ying interrupted him.
"Okay, I don't want to get to the bottom of it. You don't have to be so nervous. It's not that I want to steal it from you. If you want to learn that kind of formation, I can learn it, but it is too complicated for me and I have never been able to master it. , Hmm...I really envy your cleverness, Mr. Qian!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Chao immediately wanted to change the topic, so he asked again:
"Then why did Miss Yan Shuang come to see Senior Brother Ma?"
"Oh," Luo Ying glanced at Qian Chao, "You are so smart, why can't you even figure this out?"
"Understand what..."
Lu Shuang interrupted and said:
"Let me tell you, don't make it difficult for him. It seems that Junior Brother Qian has not experienced enough. Well, that's the case. Rumors about that boy Ma Hu have spread a lot, and somehow they have spread to Yan Shuang. She was very angry when she heard it. After all, this was completely opposite to the situation at that time. What's more, Yan Shuang was already angry at herself for scratching Ma Hu's face when she was hit by the opponent's spell and lost control... She was already very sorry, and now there were such rumors, which made her even more uneasy. She felt that it was necessary for her to come to Ma Hu, whether it was to thank or apologize, after all, Ma Hu was in the fight at that time. She has always protected him, but now she has been smeared by such rumors. Yan Shuang is also a soft-hearted person, so she made up her mind to do it once. We can't stop her. She said to take a look at Ma Hu. In addition to thanking him, , maybe she can put those rumors to rest and clear Ma Hu's innocence."
"So that's it." Qian Chao finally understood.
Luo Ying suddenly said:
"Hmph, what does Ma Hu want to be clean about? In my opinion, maybe he started this rumor and deliberately forced Yan Shuang to feel guilty and come to him this time."
Lu Shuang laughed again:
"Well, I believe he has this intention, but I don't believe he has this mind, ha!"
Wenyuan said angrily:
"You, don't think of him so badly. By the way, Junior Brother Qian, I have something to ask you."
Although Wenyuan said this, she had no intention of moving. It seemed that she was not carrying the two companions beside her.
"Oh, Senior Sister Wen, please tell me something."
"That's it. Junior brother Qian helped Yan Shuang a lot when he was in trouble twice. Among them, your talisman skills made me very envious. I have been practicing talisman skills for several years, but I didn't expect that. Compared with Junior Brother Qian, there is still a big gap, which makes me, a senior sister, a little ashamed. Well, recently my grandfather also heard about you, Junior Brother Qian, which touched him a lot. , reconsidered his rules, and then made some changes. At least he now allows me to communicate with Junior Brother Qian more and exchange ideas, so..."
"Oh?" Qian Chao still doesn't quite understand.
"Is there any exchange? Don't you understand, Mr. Qian? It means that Senior Sister Wen can teach you her methods, but you have to use your own methods to exchange them. Do you understand?" Luo Ying said from the side.
Only then did Qian Chao understand, and looked at Wenyuan with some surprise: "Is it true?"
"certainly."
"That's great," Qian Chao said happily. "Senior Sister Wen, tell me, which of my talismans do you like?"
Wenyuan's grandfather, Senior Wen Mian, experienced ups and downs in his early years, so he was a bit weird and mean. However, what he represented in Jiuxuan was the authentic learning of talismans. If he could learn a thing or two from Wenyuan, it would be as good as having something in his hands. This was a stepping stone to open the door to the art of talisman, so Qian Chao became very interested after hearing it.
Wen Yuan felt a little embarrassed, because although her grandfather Wen Mian had loosened up on her, he still had restrictions. There were several kinds of talismans that Wen Yuan was not allowed to reveal, and other than those, she didn't know about Qian Chao. Is she interested in the remaining ones, and she doesn't want to force Qian Chao, so although she said the words, she is still a little embarrassed, or a little embarrassed. What she is interested in is Qian Chao's most powerful one. That kind of "thunder talisman", and the method she was allowed to exchange with Qian Chao, was an ordinary talisman technique that she felt was a little difficult to use.
"Your kind of talisman that can attract thunder..." Wenyuan said tentatively.
"Well, I call it the 'Thunder Talisman'..."
As he spoke, Qian Chao took out a talisman from his storage bag. The light yellow talisman paper was covered with crooked runes, and then Qian Chao generously handed the talisman to Wenyuan. Senior Sister Wen has also been practicing the art of talismans for many years. As long as you get this talisman paper, even if you still can't understand it now, or even don't recognize the runes on it, you only need to go back and study it carefully, and then master it. It’s not difficult to become proficient.
Wenyuan didn't expect Qian Chao to be so happy. He actually took it out without even asking what he was willing to give in exchange. He couldn't help but feel a little dazed. He looked at the "Thunder Talisman" still in Qian Chao's hand, and then looked at it again. Qian Chao said: "Junior brother Qian, don't worry, you haven't asked me what talisman I can exchange with you?"
"Well……"
Qian Chao was also stunned for a moment. Yes, what kind of means did he want to get from Senior Sister Wen?
Got it!
"I remember that Senior Sister Wen has a method that looks like a spell, but I think it must be the magic of talismans. It was the method that Senior Sister Wen used to injure the fused guy in the end..."
Seeing that Wenyuan was still a little confused, Qian Chao took a bow and arrow posture and added:
"It's Senior Sister Wen's method like archery."
Wenyuan understood that it was "Arrow Talisman Technique", but...
"Why did Junior Brother Qian fall in love with that method?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Chao thought that the method was important. The "Thunder Talisman" he took out was not enough, so he prepared to increase the amount:
"Uh...how..."
"Junior Brother Qian, don't get me wrong. The method you are talking about is called 'Arrow Talisman Technique'. It is indeed a Talisman Technique, but it is not a powerful method. Speaking of which, my grandfather created the 'Arrow Talisman Technique' himself, but later He felt that this kind of talisman would not do much, so he only regarded it as a small means, so he did not continue to spend time on it. For example, we can still use it in the Qi refining stage, and its power is pretty good, but for foundation building After that, this method is basically useless, or my grandfather and other old people have no interest in this 'Arrow Talisman Technique' and if you continue to work hard, you will not be of much use in the future if you learn it."
"Hey, Senior Sister Wen," Luo Ying took Qian Chao's thunder talisman and stuffed it into Wenyuan's hand. "Since this 'arrow talisman' isn't enough, then take out more and pick up Wen Yuan." It’s okay to give this kid as much as the senior allows.”
In fact, Luo Ying's original intention was: once a spell is created, it will always be useful. Although senior Wen Mian is unwilling to continue to work on this "Arrow Talisman Technique", if Qian Chao can rely on his intelligence to If you improve it, it might become a powerful method!
"Then... what does Brother Qian mean?" Wenyuan asked.
"No problem, then I'll bring out a few more."
In this way, Qian Chao took out almost all the talismans he had now, such as the "Qianjun Talisman", "Woodvine Talisman", "Hanguang Talisman", "Wild Fire Talisman", and of course Wenyuan's most powerful Talisman. The cherished "Thunder Talisman".
In addition to the "Arrow Talisman Technique" that Qian Chaoxiang had in mind, Wenyuan also took out five or six kinds of talismans. The two parties exchanged them, and everyone was happy.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Wen." Qian Chao said happily.
"It's me who wants more money, junior brother," Wenyuan said.
Wen Yuan's sincerity is actually related to her current situation. The Wen family's family affairs have been explained before, so I won't go into details again. The relationship between this senior Wen Mian and the Wen family from which she was born can be said to be weak, even to the point of He was indifferent to the point of indifference, so he was also the same with Wenyuan. He was always wary of Wenyuan in terms of cultivation. He was even more attentive to Wenyuan than to the disciples he accepted. The reason was that he was worried that Wenyuan would secretly reteach the methods he taught her. To the people of the Wen family. Although it is difficult to tell that this girl has this intention after a long time, Old Man Wen's vigilance has not diminished. As for the magic methods passed down by Wen Yuan, it cannot be said that Senior Wen did not teach her real things, but what he passed on was also Most of them focus on defense. I just hope that this girl can protect herself. The most powerful "Ivy Talisman" is not allowed to be exchanged with Qian Chao. The rest are just some small tricks he created in his early years. For example, although the "Arrow Talisman Technique" is powerful, after the Qi refining period and once the foundation is established, this method is useless, which shows the deep intention of this old man.
Wenyuan also understood Wen Mian's thoughts, and she was helpless. Therefore, she was moved after seeing Qian Chao's methods. She went to Wen Mian to beg, and finally persuaded the old man Wen Mian. According to the old man Wen Mian's thoughts, anyway, What you exchanged from Qian Chao was definitely not the authentic knowledge of this talisman, and what you exchanged to Qian Chao were all trivial tricks. As long as he didn't teach Qian Chao the few things he told you, then it would be fine. That's why Wenyuan and Qian Chao communicated with each other today.
In fact, there is Luo Ying who has seen through this matter. She has long been dissatisfied with the old man Wen Mian. Even if Wen Mian experienced great changes in his family in his early years and is therefore full of resentment towards the Wen family, what does this have to do with Wenyuan? Woolen cloth? Senior Sister Wenyuan has been with that old guy for so many years. Could it be that this old guy can't see clearly Wenyuan's character and character after all this time? Although she is not a biological granddaughter, she is always related by blood. This old guy has been teaching Wenyuan for so long. They are hidden and secretive, and they don't look like elders at all. Therefore, Luo Ying encouraged Wen Yuan to exchange more with Qian Chao before this, and she should do the same in the future. Since old man Na Wen always taught her some things that were of little use, she had to think of more ways on her own.
From Luo Ying's point of view, if Senior Sister Wen wants to completely change her situation, she may have to wait until the day when she and her brother Luo Bin become Taoist companions. At that time, old man Wen will not teach Wenyuan the real thing. If so, you can ask your grandfather, Old Man Luo, who also has a bad temper, to have a fight with Old Man Wen, and the matter will be resolved.
As for Luo Ying herself, it's not that she has no intention of communicating with Qian Chao, but her grandfather has no reservations about her, so what Luo Ying has learned is considered to be authentic formations. If she communicates with Qian Chao, it is estimated that Old Man Luo is probably She disagreed, and besides, in her opinion, Qian Chao's formations were all things she could learn from her grandfather in the future, so she was not in a hurry.
