It turns out that the water-avoiding talisman Yu Qingfu mentioned was just an excuse.
He invited Yun Que for another purpose.
After arriving at the quiet room, Yu Qingfu asked Yun Que to wait for a moment, then he turned around and went out. When he came back, he was holding a small wooden box in his hand.
The wooden box is rectangular in shape, the size of a palm, and contains a talisman.
The magic talisman is very old, it can be seen that it has some age, and the spiritual energy is dim, and it is on the verge of being scrapped.
Yun Que had never seen the talisman in the wooden box and couldn't figure out why it was related to him, but he could tell that the drawing of this talisman was much more complicated than the talismans sold outside.
The runes on it are densely arranged, and if you look closely, it gives people the illusion of a military formation.
It was as if those runes were forming an array, ready to attack at any moment.
A very murderous talisman!
Yun Que didn't ask anything, and looked at Yu Qingfu, waiting for him to tell the truth.
"This talisman is called the Thousand Army Talisman. When activated, it can transform into a thousand cavalry, which can fight in the air. It is extremely powerful."
Yu Qingfu looked at Qian Junfu and said with complicated eyes:
"These thousand iron cavalry are the souls of soldiers that I have collected and refined on the battlefield over the years, and I have spent several years refining them into spiritual talismans. They are my life's work, and they are also the highest-level talisman in the entire Qingfu Building.
"
"I was once kidnapped and killed by three monks of the same level. It was this Thousand Army Talisman that allowed me to escape. I killed two people and seriously injured one person. It can be said that without this Talisman, my life would have been sealed."
"However, the process of refining the Thousand Army Talisman was not smooth. In the final stage, I encountered a problem. No matter what, I couldn't imprint the Thousand Army Talisman in one place at the same time. I asked many people for advice, but the result was still unsolvable.
It wasn't until a formation master came to help that the Thousand Army Talisman was finally completed."
Yu Qingfu raised his head and looked at Yun Que, sighing: "That formation master is your father, Yanmen Hou Yun Changji."
Yun Que was very surprised.
Unexpectedly, Yu Qingfu actually asked his father for help in refining the talisman. Even Yunque himself didn't know that his father had attainments in the formation.
The good fortune of Yanmen Hou Yun is almost unknown to everyone in the Yan Kingdom.
When talking about Yun Changji, people's initial impression is that he is a master of military art and the number one military god of the Yan Kingdom. He has never lost a battle except for the battle of Hanshui City.
No one compares Yun Changji with a master of formations
"A master of formations?" Yun Que whispered softly.
"The art of war is deceptive. To use troops is to use formations. A single soldier is like a mantis's arm. No matter how strong he is, he can't stop a chariot. But if tens of thousands of elite soldiers line up in formation, they can make ever-changing changes and become invincible."
Yu Qingfu saw Yun Que's doubts and explained: "Everyone in the art of war must have attainments far beyond ordinary people in formations, let alone the number one military god in the Yan Kingdom."
Yun Que quickly felt relieved.
He never doubted his father's ability.
Yu Qingfu pushed the wooden box to Yun Que and said:
"Without your father's help, this Thousand Army Talisman that saved my life would never have been completed. Today is just a debt of gratitude. Although the Thousand Army Talisman consumes most of its power, it can still be used once. You can bring it with you.
It might be of some use to you."
Yun Que took the wooden box with both hands and thanked him solemnly.
The Thousand Army Talisman engraved with the power of his father's formation made Yun Que's mind spin and find it difficult to calm down.
He wanted to step into Hanshui City more and more to find out the truth about that year.
Formation path...
From the words "Array Dao", Yun Que thought of the reason why his father closed the city and did not come out. Is it related to the formation of the array?
Could it be that my father set up a formation in Hanshui City back then?
But where is the enemy?
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out. In the end, it was just a mess, and Yun Que had no choice but to let go of his thoughts.
After chatting with Yu Qingfu for a few words, Yun Que learned that the other party and his father were good friends. Since the talisman maker had a natural relationship with the formation masters, they knew each other, and there was no deep friendship.
It is this kind of friendship between gentlemen that allows the two of them to join forces to create rare spiritual talismans such as the Thousand Army Talisman without any conflicts of interest.
"I don't know who commissioned the sophora crystal collected by the shop owner. A friend of mine seems to have some sophora crystal. I'll ask him if he can sell it when I get back."
Yun Que changed the subject and inquired about the clues behind Huaijing.
"No store owner can disclose the client's information easily. If Yunhou's friend wants to sell Sophora japonica, he can come to Qingfu Tower. Don't worry, the price will definitely satisfy him." Yu Qingfu said with a smile.
Yun Que made an embarrassed expression and said: "My friend is used to being cautious. Regardless of buying or selling, he must deal directly with the buyer or seller. He will not see any middlemen."
"That's it..."
Yu Qingfuruo looked at Yun Que thoughtfully, pondered for a while, and said:
"The buyer who purchased Huaijing was known to many big shops in Fang City and called him a rich man. This person is very mysterious. He wears a mask when entering and exiting Fang City. I can only confirm that he is a woman. I can't see his appearance.
appearance."
After hearing about the woman, Yun Que immediately thought of a name.
Si Ruonan!
Si Ruonan was so eager to acquire Huaijing, and coupled with the clues Yu Qingfu deliberately revealed, it is almost certain that the 'rich man' is Si Ruonan.
What puzzled Yun Que was how could Si Ruonan be related to the barbarians?
It stands to reason that the weapon refiner, who has lived alone for many years and is an old acquaintance of Hu Tieshan, should not be related to the barbarians.
Did you guess wrong?
The 'rich man' who bought Huaijing in the market was not Si Ruonan, but someone else?
Yun Que pondered for a moment and then asked: "I wonder where I can see that rich man in person."
Yu Qingfu shook his head and said: "Her whereabouts are mysterious. Shenlong never sees her head. No one can find her. However, this person has a habit of coming to the auction every three months."
After a pause, Yu Qingfu stood up, made a pot of hot tea, and muttered to himself seemingly casually:
"It seems like I haven't been here for two months. Hey, as we get older, we tend to forget things easily. It's been too long and I can't remember them."
Needless to say, the shopkeeper of Qingfu Building has revealed enough clues to Yun Que.
He comes to an auction every three months, and he has not been there for two months. In other words, at the next Qingfu Building auction, he will definitely see the famous 'rich man'!
Yun Que didn't ask any more questions, put away the Qianjun Talisman and thanked him again.
Regardless of whether the rich man is Si Ruonan or not, he has to pursue it. This matter is related to the purpose of the barbarians hiding in the imperial city.
Yun Que can ignore other things, but the barbarians are Dayan's mortal enemies and his father's mortal enemies. The barbarians' conspiracy may be related to the cause of his father's death.
Return to the lobby on the first floor.
Han Jiao and Luo Xiaoyu each chose a low-grade talisman.
The former chooses a light body talisman, which can increase one's own speed, while the latter chooses a fire ignition talisman, which can burn into a small fire at any time.
Both of the two spiritual talismans cost ten spiritual stones, totaling twenty spiritual stones. After half price, Yun Que bought them with only ten spiritual stones and gave them to the two of them respectively.
Ten spiritual stones are like drizzle to Yun Que who currently carries more than a thousand spiritual stones.
Han Jiao chose the Light Body Talisman. Yun Que could understand that increasing speed and agility would be a natural advantage for monks to explore dangerous places. They would definitely use it in the subsequent sword fight.
However, the fire talisman chosen by Luo Xiaoyu is of no use except for igniting fire. It cannot attack or defend.
Basically similar to the effect of Huozhezi.
The only convenient thing is that the talisman itself can burn for a long time, which is equivalent to a torch that can be used for a long time.
Yun Que explained his confusion, and received an even more troublesome reply.
"Barbecue! Brother Yun, don't you think the fire talisman is very convenient for barbecue?"
Luo Xiaoyu vowed: "When we explore dangerous places in the future, we can eat barbecue anytime and anywhere!"
Yun Que wanted to slap Luo Xiaoyu on the head.
I was afraid that I would beat her even more stupidly.
Buying fire charms to use for barbecue, this girl's idea is really strange.
