Chapter 6 Competition
New book! Old friends, please support, collect and recommend it!
Xu Ziyan sighed slightly in his heart. When he first came to Zhongdu City, he thought that with his own ability, he should have no problem supporting his parents. He didn't expect that after coming here, he found that five taels of money was a lot of money in his eyes.
Money can't buy anything at all, and there is no capital for refining elixirs and making talismans. So Xu Ziyan is also helpless now. She knows in her heart that she needs the job of the guest elder of the Xu family. If she doesn't have this job, I'm afraid her future life will be ruined.
Unsustainable, this is the tragedy of the poor!
Thinking of this, Xu Ziyan turned his gaze to Lin Pinghai, and met Lin Pinghai's disdainful and mocking gaze. Xu Ziyan's heart sank. In her previous life, she was the pinnacle figure in the archaeological world and a very proud person. This pride lasted for many years.
It has seeped into her soul. Even if her future is full of difficulties, she is unwilling to let go of her pride. If she turns around and walks away at this time, wouldn't it be equivalent to admitting that she is the liar Lin Pinghai said. But if
In this situation, he showed his ability to make talismans and fell into the inferior position, as if he was eager to recommend himself to the Xu family.
But now the atmosphere in the room is very strange. Xu Haoran is silent, with expectation in his eyes, while Xu Haobo has a look of helplessness. Xu Ziyan knows that these two people can't talk anymore, and thinks to herself, it seems that this matter
Only you can solve it yourself. Since you, Lin Pinghai, are so arrogant, let's see who is more arrogant.
Xu Ziyan, who had thought everything through, turned around and focused on Lin Pinghai's face. She looked at him lightly without saying a word. His eyes were very quiet, heavy and steady, like a superior looking down at his subordinates. Xu Ziyan
In his previous life, he was a peak figure, and he naturally carried the aura of a superior person. Now he consciously released it, which instantly caused the expressions of the three people in the room to change.
Xu Haoran's eyes flashed with wisdom, and thoughts flashed through his mind: Who is she? This temperament is definitely developed by occupying the top position in a certain field for a long time. Where does she come from? Which big family does she belong to?
Disciple? Or a disciple of which sect? This kind of temperament is definitely not something that a casual cultivator can cultivate!
Lin Pinghai was just looking at Xu Ziyan. He thought that Xu Ziyan couldn't stand the pressure on him and was about to beg for mercy. His eyes couldn't help but reveal more ridicule. He just wanted to ridicule the other party a few more words, but he saw the scrutiny of the superior in the other party's eyes.
With such a look in his eyes, he was startled, and immediately a surge of anger rushed into his chest. Seeing that it had been so long since he came in, and he had said so much, but the head of the house didn't say a word to support him, he couldn't help but feel sorry for the head of the house.
After complaining for a while, he turned towards Xu Haoran and said:
"Please ask the patriarch to punish this liar."
After listening to Lin Pinghai's words, Xu Haoran was feeling embarrassed, but he heard Xu Ziyan's cold voice:
"Clan leader, who is this person?"
"Oh, this is the enshrined elder of our family's Talisman Hall, the first-grade Talisman Maker Lin Pinghai." Xu Haoran had a bad feeling in his heart when he saw Xu Ziyan asking about it, but he still answered gently.
"Oh~~" Xu Ziyan made a long sound, and then said lightly: "First-grade Talisman Maker? Is he worthy?"
When he first heard the patriarch introduce himself as a first-level talisman maker, Lin Pinghai proudly straightened his chest. He indeed had the capital to be proud. On this continent, in addition to those sects, among all the families, first-level
The Talisman Maker is the master. But before he finished his proud posture, Xu Ziyan's voice was heard in his ears:
"Is he worthy?"
Lin Pinghai immediately felt like vomiting blood, and his face immediately turned red. The patriarch Xu Haoran who was sitting on top couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, thinking that it seemed that Xu Ziyan was preparing to have sex with Lin Pinghai.
"Little liar, what did you say?" Lin Pinghai jumped and pointed at Xu Ziyan and cursed.
"Oh, you didn't hear clearly? Do you want me to say it again?" Xu Ziyan said with a serious expression, word by word: "What I just said is: you! Are you worthy?"
"You...you...do you dare to say it again?" Lin Pinghai's body began to tremble.
Xu Ziyan put on a sympathetic expression, and her tone suddenly became gentle: "Oh~~, I didn't expect that your ears are not good either. It turns out that you are a disabled person. Well, I will tell you again,
Are you worthy?"
"Boom~~"
An angry breath burst out from Lin Pinghai's body, and his fifth-level cultivation in the Qi-refining stage instantly reached its peak, and he rushed towards Xu Ziyan as soon as he moved. At the moment when Lin Pinghai's momentum exploded, Xu Ziyan also raised his fifth level in the Qi-refining stage.
The first level of cultivation reached its peak, but she sadly found that her cultivation was too far behind that of her opponent. Under the pressure of the opponent's momentum, her body was unable to move at all.
"Am I going to die here like this?" Xu Ziyan thought sadly: "This Lin Pinghai is too self-righteous. Even if I die, I can't weaken my momentum."
Thinking of this, Xu Ziyan looked directly at Lin Pinghai, his eyes full of ridicule and disdain.
A figure suddenly inserted in front of Xu Ziyan, and heard a "bang" in his ears. Then Xu Ziyan saw Lin Pinghai staggering back two steps, looking at the person standing in front of Xu Ziyan with disbelief.
Xu Haobo said in a trembling voice:
"you you……"
"Lin Gongfeng," Xu Haobo said in a deep voice: "Even if you want to teach this little girl a lesson, it is because she questions your talisman-making skills, and you have been accusing this little girl of being a liar, so the two of you have
The conflicts are all doubts about the other party's ability to make talismans. I think the only way to solve this problem is for both of you to show your skills and compare them. Then everything will be clear, right?"
Xu Ziyan's move was to force Lin Pinghai to compete with her, so that she would not be making talismans like a disciple, but Lin Pinghai would be inspecting them like a master. Although in the end, his talisman-making skills would definitely conquer this place.
Everyone, but in that case, their status will be very low, and I am afraid that they will be bullied in the Xu family in the future. You must know that although Xu Ziyan is better than anyone in the Xu family in the art of making talismans, but in cultivating
Wei Shang is still a rookie. Since he has decided to join the Xu family as an elder of the guest family, in order to have an easier life in the Xu family in the future, he must fight for his own status.
Now seeing that Xu Haobo was finally forced to say what he expected to Lin Pinghai, he was naturally very happy, but his expression remained disdainful, looking at Lin Pinghai indifferently, stimulating the other person's emotions, and adding more fuel to the fire.
, I hope Lin Pinghai can agree.
Sure enough, Lin Pinghai did not disappoint Xu Ziyan. Listening to Xu Haobo's words and looking at Xu Ziyan's mocking eyes, Lin Pinghai felt aggrieved and angry at this time. What aggrieved was that he was completely well-intentioned for the sake of his family and was afraid of the family.
He was too eager to recruit talents and fell into the trap of a liar. Angryly, the clan leader and hall master clearly did not believe his words, but rather protected the little liar in front of them. There was a surge of blood in his chest, and he blurted out:
"Okay, I will draw a paper talisman right here. If that little liar can also draw a paper talisman that is more advanced than me, no! As long as she can draw a paper talisman that is the same as mine, no! As long as she can draw a paper talisman
If she can't draw the paper talisman, I will kowtow to her and become her teacher. If she can't draw it, she will kowtow to me to apologize, and then crawl from here to the street."
"Okay!" Xu Ziyan answered decisively. She had been looking forward to this moment for a long time, fearing that Lin Pinghai would regret it, so she immediately spoke out to finalize the matter.
There was silence in the main hall, so quiet that one could hear the sound of people's heartbeats. The atmosphere was depressing and solemn. Lin Pinghai and Xu Ziyan stood on both sides of the main hall, one on the left and one on the right. Under Xu Haobo's instructions, disciples from the family immediately came.
Xu Ziyan and Lin Pinghai each placed a table in front of them, and then placed talisman paper, talisman pens and cinnabar on the table.
Xu Ziyan and Lin Pinghai looked at each other. At this time, Lin Pinghai, who had picked up the talisman pen, had regained his composure. He had been making paper talismans all his life. As soon as he picked up the talisman pen, he would immediately forget everything and devote himself to making talismans.
within the realm.
Seeing Lin Pinghai who had completely calmed down across from him, Xu Ziyan couldn't help but secretly nod his head, and his eyes showed appreciation. Although the person in front of him was arrogant, he did have something to be proud of. He withdrew his gaze towards Lin Pinghai, Xu Ziyan was deeply moved
Taking a deep breath, my heart immediately became calm. I gently picked up the talisman pen on the table, dipped it in cinnabar, and evenly penetrated the spiritual energy in my body into the talisman pen, and then evenly spread it from the tip of the pen.
It was revealed that in an instant, the pen moved quickly and smoothly, without any pause in the middle, and a top-grade paper talisman was created.
Gently putting down the talisman pen and looking at her work, Xu Ziyan was very satisfied. She found that her level had improved again, and she had the potential to break through the first-level talisman-making technique and reach the realm of the second-level talisman-making master. Smash it, smash it, and then
He nodded, still not fully satisfied, and then looked up at Lin Pinghai opposite.
At this time, Lin Pinghai also happened to put down the talisman pen in his hand and looked up. Seeing Xu Ziyan standing there leisurely, with a touch of pride in his expression, he couldn't help but be startled:
"Has she finished painting? Can she really make talismans?"
Seeing both of them put down their talisman pens, Xu Haoran asked softly: "Have you two finished it?"
Xu Ziyan and Lin Pinghai looked at each other, and then nodded.
Xu Haoran stood up from his seat. Out of respect for Lin Pinghai, he came to Lin Pinghai's table first. Although he already knew Lin Pinghai's talisman-making skills, he still looked at it seriously and then clicked gently.
