The blood and dead people that appeared in the alleyway of the old house last night made the Shui family in the old house worried for half the night. Later, it was Shui Mingdong who came forward to invite a group of elite city guard warriors to patrol the surrounding area, which made everyone feel more at ease.
Qin Yun did not disturb many people when he returned to the Shui family's old residence from Wanhua Tower. It took him a whole night to completely remove the poison that invaded his body and restore his strength to its peak state.
Although Yunxiang was seriously injured and escaped, she was definitely not the only Dachu spy lurking in Lingyang City. There was no guarantee that there were also powerful people among them. When the Lingyang War was about to come, it was very important to maintain full strength.
The sky finally dawned, and Lingyang City, bathed in the morning light, was quiet.
Qin Yun woke up from his trance. He opened his eyes, stood up, and left the quiet room where he had been sitting all night.
In the front hall of the room, two pretty maids were preparing hot water towels for washing and breakfast. When they saw Qin Yun coming out, they all saluted and greeted him, and respectfully presented him with green salt and wooden wickers for brushing his teeth.
Now Qin Yun can be regarded as a distinguished guest of the Shui family. Even Shui Mingdong is polite and does not regard himself as Qin Yun's master, let alone others.
When Qin Yun finished the carefully prepared breakfast, a maid bowed and said: "Mr. Qin, the commander of the Wei army, Mr. Li, sent someone to deliver the first batch of materials for making talismans. He also left a message saying that the rest will be collected as soon as possible.
arrive."
Talisman materials? Qin Yun suddenly became energetic and said: "Great, you can have them all sent to the room!"
After a pause, he said again: "You two stay here and be my helpers."
As soon as he finished speaking, a clear and sweet voice came from the door: "Brother Qin Yun, is there anything we can do to help?"
Qin Yun turned around and saw that Shui Shengnan walked in with a group of people smiling.
Most of this group of people were boys and girls between the ages of thirteen or fourteen to seventeen or eighteen. He recognized a few of them as direct descendants of the Shui family, but most of the faces were relatively unfamiliar.
The expressions of these boys and girls are different, some are awe and respectful, some are curious and fresh, and some are complicated and difficult to understand. The eyes looking at Qin Yun have a sense of challenge that they are eager to try.
Shui Shengnan introduced him carelessly: "Let me introduce to you, this is my third cousin Shui Siyi, my fourth cousin Shui Sicheng, this is my seventh cousin Shui Ying, and this is my cousin."
She introduced a dozen people to Qin Yun in one go, all of whom were Shui family disciples and relatives. They were undoubtedly the leaders of the younger generation of the Shui family, and most of them were warriors or sword cultivators with martial arts skills.
No matter what their views on Qin Yun were, these children came from a wealthy family. After Shui Shengnan's introduction, they all saluted politely and thoughtfully, and Qin Yun returned the greetings with a smile one by one.
His age is actually not much older than these young men and women, but in terms of experience and experience, he far exceeds everyone else.
After the introduction, Shui Shengnan asked curiously: "Brother Qin Yun, what do you need help with, can I help you?"
Qin Yun smiled and said: "I asked Lord Li, the commander of the guard army, to purchase a batch of materials for refining talismans. I plan to refine some talismans today for use in defending the city. The helpers are also dipping ink and handing out paper next to them. The two of them are enough."
Already."
"Refining a talisman? What talisman? Is it a yellow talisman or a cloud talisman, a fireball talisman or an explosion talisman?"
A young girl stood up and asked, "Aren't you a sword cultivator? Why can you still refine talismans?"
This girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and her appearance was much better than that of Shui Shengnan. She stood out among a group of young men and women and was very eye-catching. She looked at Qin Yun with some confusion, surprise and curiosity.
"Shui Ying is a disciple of Qi Refiner, and studied under Taoist Master Tianyin of Huilong Temple," Shui Shengnan explained quickly and glared at the other party, fearing that her words would cause Qin Yun's displeasure.
Of course, Qin Yun's mind is not that narrow-minded. He smiled and said: "What I refine is the Fire Gathering Talisman. All roads are open to it. Sword cultivators can also learn the art of Talisman. As long as you learn it and apply it, you can do anything!"
Qin Yun's last sentence was completely inspired by his feelings. Although sword cultivators are very particular about specialization and uniqueness, and many sword cultivators want nothing more than swordsmanship, he doesn't really agree with that extreme way of practice.
As the saying goes, different paths lead to the same goal. No matter whether you are a warrior, a swordsman or a Qi practitioner, there is no essential difference in the magical abilities you possess after reaching the highest level. It is not a bad thing to master some other skills by analogy.
He encountered danger several times, but relied on the talisman to turn the situation around.
The girl seemed a little unconvinced and wanted to refute Qin Yun, but Shui Shengnan winked hard, so she could only shut her mouth angrily.
At this time, two maids came in carrying a wooden box each.
They placed the wooden boxes on the table and opened them, only to see that one box contained thick yellow talisman paper, and the other box contained talisman pens, cinnabar, animal blood and other objects and tools for drawing talismans.
Seeing these two boxes, Shui Ying was stunned and asked: "There are at least a thousand sets of yellow talisman materials here. Are you planning to refine hundreds of talismans?"
Although the yellow talisman is the lowest level talisman, there is also a problem with the success rate. High-level talisman masters can have an 80% or 90% success rate, and ordinary talisman masters can have a success rate of 50% or 60%. As for those who are just getting started, within ten
It is normal to fail seven or eight times.
Qin Yun took out the talisman paper and pen from the box and replied casually: "This is the first batch, there will be more later, as many talismans as you can refine, and you can refine as many talismans as you have with the materials!"
Shui Ying wrinkled her nose, looking like she was teasing Qin Yun for "bragging and not drafting".
Refining talismans requires a lot of energy and spirit. Even a qi refiner who is proficient in talismans can only refine a limited number of talismans in a day. Even the lowest level yellow talismans are not very many.
As a sword cultivator, Qin Yun is already very surprised that he actually needs to use so many materials to make talismans. Could it be that his success rate is too low and he relies on quantity to accumulate?
But how many talismans can be refined in this way, and what use can they be used for? The girl thought with disdain.
Although she doesn't doubt Qin Yun's strength in martial arts, when it comes to refining talismans, huh!
Qin Yun didn't want to think about the thoughts of the girl next to him. He asked the maid to clear the desk, put talismans and other utensils on it, and said to Shui Shengnan: "I'm going to start refining the talismans. You guys
If something happens, you don’t have to stay with me here.”
Shui Shengnan rolled his eyes, turned to the others and said, "I want to accompany Brother Qin Yun here. You can go and have fun on your own. Anyway, you have all met Brother Qin Yun now."
The boys and girls looked at each other, and Shui Ying said: "I will stay too to see how capable Brother Qin Yun is. Ying'er needs to ask for advice!"
With Shui Shengnan's carelessness, he could also see the girl's true thoughts, and he immediately smiled: "That's fine!"
Among all the people in the Shui family, she admires and believes in Qin Yun's strength the most. This is due to the shocking battle that Qin Yun killed Tu Wanxiong in the ancient temple, so she doesn't think Qin Yun will brag.
The two of them stayed, and the others didn't want to leave either. They all expressed their desire to study.
Qin Yun couldn't force them to leave. After all, he was just a guest in the Shui family. There was no reason for a guest to drive away his master.
In addition, he doesn't mind letting others see the process of refining the talismans. Anyway, the fire gathering talismans will be continuously refined in the future. Instead of letting others guess the secret of how he can refine so many talismans, it is better to show them openly now.
.
Ignoring them anymore, Qin Yun sat in front of his desk, picking up his talisman pen and concentrating.
The most taboo thing about refining talismans is being upset. If you have distracting thoughts in your mind, it will be difficult to write, and the probability of failure is extremely high. Logically speaking, it is not suitable for people to watch. However, Qin Yun's state of mind is deeply tempered, and he can quickly enter a state of concentration.
After brewing for a moment, he dipped his pen into the talisman ink mixed with cinnabar and monster blood, and immediately started to fly on the talisman paper. It only took him less than twenty breaths to complete a piece!
So fast! Others looked at it as nothing, but Shui Ying was shocked.
As a universal basic yellow talisman, she has also refined the Fire Gathering Talisman, and knows that the Fire Gathering Talisman is not very easy to refine.
Not to mention herself, even her master could not draw the fire gathering talisman so quickly.
Could it be just a ghost drawing a talisman? The girl who did not believe in evil could not wait to take the talisman paper that Qin Yun had just finished in her hand to see if it was what she thought.
After just one glance, she was completely stunned.
I saw that the yellow talisman paper was covered with complex runes. The bright talisman lines were dense but extremely clear. They stood out through the back of the paper, and there was some mysterious law hidden in them.
Holding this yellow talisman, Shuiying clearly felt the hot power contained in the talisman, as if it would break out at any time, and even made her feel a little hot!
The best yellow talisman!
As a Qi Refiner disciple who specializes in talismans, even though Shuiying has just started refining talismans, she still has good eyesight. She can tell at a glance that this is by no means an ordinary or even top-grade yellow talisman, but a top-quality yellow talisman!
Could it be that all current sword cultivators are so powerful?
The girl's mind went blank. She couldn't believe her eyes. Her stupid look made Shui Shengnan beside her snicker.
Qin Yun, on the other hand, didn't notice Shui Ying's shock at all. All his thoughts were concentrated on the tip of the talisman pen. The true air flow was transformed into Yuanli and injected into the talisman paper. One after another, the fire gathering talisman was completed under his hands!
Shui Shengnan, who was standing next to her, finally knew what she was going to do. She took away the talisman that Qin Yun had refined, put it aside to dry, and then carefully put it back into the wooden box. This was originally the maid's job.
Enjoy it with relish.
Under the astonished gazes of others, Shuiying finally woke up from her shock and surprise, and her first reaction was to activate her true energy to release the fire gathering charm in her hand!
