Chapter 94, Consummation of the Little Acid Rain Technique!
I have been concentrating on drawing talismans these past few days, and I have used about 7,788 pieces of leather paper and talisman ink. I still need to buy more.
"I wonder how that woman is doing now? I hope she won't lose her life!" Suddenly thinking of Li Yuan, she couldn't help but sigh.
After all, we have been together day and night for several months.
Although I guessed that Li Yuan had some background, I couldn't help but worry when I didn't see anyone.
······
The next day, Lu Nan went out to the market. He wanted to walk more and see if there were any other stores selling leather paper, but he found that there were not many, and the price was a bit more expensive than the one he bought before.
“It’s better to go to that store to buy it!”
Lu Nan found the old shop, and when he entered the door, he saw the female nun bending down to clean the messy floor, constantly cursing under her breath.
"Fellow!"
The female cultivator turned her head, saw Lu Nan, and immediately smiled and said: "It turns out we are a regular customer!" She quickly put down her tools and walked over, "Do you still want the paper?"
"Yes! Buy more this time!"
"There isn't much left! It was bought by someone, but if you want, I can leave some for you next time!"
Lu Nan frowned and said, "Isn't Tianshou City specialized in producing general spirit animal skin paper? Why are the quantities so small?"
"Yes! However, it also depends on the time. There are not so many spiritual beasts in the mountains every day. Sometimes there are more and sometimes there are less! Especially in winter, many spiritual beasts will not come out.
It’s good if it doesn’t stop shipping!”
"Alas~" Lu Nan sighed and said, "Then you can leave the paper to me, I'll charge a premium!"
"Ah? How much does one cost?"
"4 yuan and 5 yuan!" I originally wanted to give 5 yuan, but I still felt a little worried about the money.
Sure enough, my layout is not big enough!
"Okay! I will send it directly to you when the time comes! Where do you live?"
"No, I can just come and get it myself!" Lu Nan thought it was better to keep a low profile.
The female cultivator covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Taoist friends are cautious, but Liuyunfang is not very big, and we live there. As long as we pay a little attention, we can know where the Taoist friends live!"
"Ahem~ Okay, okay! Send it to me when you have the goods!"
Lu Nan walked away slightly embarrassed. He had become a habit of being cautious. He didn't expect that he was a blind man holding a lantern, and he was blind in vain.
The female cultivator watched him leave. After a while, she seemed to remember something and slapped her forehead suddenly.
"I forgot to ask, how much do I want?"
If their hunting team is lucky, they will produce dozens of pieces of leather paper at one time, which even those who are studying to make talismans can't eat.
"Forget it, let's go over there tonight and ask!"
·······
I couldn't find any store that sells elixirs. There are a few shops that sell elixirs, but they are not the main ones, and the varieties are very simple, with only a small amount of Qi-tonifying elixirs.
This elixir has no effect on him now, so Lu Nan can only give up.
The resources in this small place are too scarce. Let’s talk about it later when we go to Fairy City.
Returning to Liuyunfang, he passed by a small stream. On the corridor, there were several female nuns in simple clothes pointing at him and letting out low laughter from time to time.
"Do you have a crush, fellow Daoist Lu?" Suddenly, a female cultivator called out.
Lu Nan quickly put away his eyes and replied: "Yes, yes!" After that, he hurried away.
These man-eating goblins made him angry. Let them take a good look at what it means to be successful in physical skills!
When he arrived at the door and was about to enter, he suddenly heard someone calling him, "May I ask who you are, fellow Taoist Lu?"
Lu Nan turned around and saw an old man with a somewhat vigorous figure smiling and asking with his hands behind his hands.
The other person is tall and has thick arms. If it weren't for the wrinkles on his face and gray hair, you would have thought he was young.
"Who is your Excellency?"
"My name is Liu Yifeng!"
Lu Nan quickly said: "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Liu!"
After all, he was still a little surprised. Someone had mentioned the name Liu Yifeng to him before he came, because he was the real owner of Liuyunfang.
"I didn't expect that fellow Taoist would hear my name just a few days after arriving. I'm so thoughtful! I came here this time to invite fellow Taoist to attend the banquet at Liuyunfang!"
"Will everyone go?"
"Yes! Everyone gave me face!" Liu Yifeng said with a smile.
Having said that, how could Lu Nan refuse?
“I’ll definitely go there then!”
Liu Yifeng walked away with satisfaction and went to the next door to inform others.
"This guy doesn't have any airs about him. He personally handles things like notifying people to attend banquets!"
Lu Nan glanced curiously, and his eyes stayed on the other person's strong body for a while. For some reason, he always felt that there was a powerful force in that body.
Maybe he also practiced physical skills!
Looking at his arms, he didn't look very strong. Judging from his appearance, you wouldn't necessarily think that he had practiced taijutsu.
"That's good! Otherwise, the enemy can see it at a glance, so what's the point of having fun?"
Returning to the yard, I took out the leather paper from the storage bag, then cut it into pieces, took out the talisman pen and talisman ink, and drew carefully.
Perhaps due to being promoted to the seventh level of Qi Refining, or due to the lack of skills, the speed of improving the realm has slowed down a lot. Lu Nan can only temporarily compress the time to improve the realm, and spend most of his energy on drawing talisman paper and practicing.
In magic.
He is about to go to the fairy city, and he needs to prepare a lot of wealth so that he can arm himself as soon as possible.
······
The banquet was held on the fifth day, and its destination was in the middle of Liuyunfang. There was a large courtyard there, where Liu Yifeng and his friends lived.
Like many casual cultivators, when Liu Yifeng first arrived here, he teamed up with other casual cultivators to hunt spiritual beasts in the mountains, and later founded Liuyunfang.
On the road, I saw other monks from time to time and greeted each other.
"Friend Lu?"
When Lu Nan was greeting a monk whose name he didn't know, he heard someone calling him. When he turned around, he saw that he was a shopkeeper selling leather paper, and there were several monks standing beside him, obviously they were together.
"Fellow Daoist Han!" Lu Nan greeted.
Several people got together and walked inside while talking. They met many familiar people on the road and greeted them one after another.
"Fellow Daoist Han is so popular!" Lu Nan couldn't help but sigh as several people found a seat to sit down.
His greeting was a nod of acquaintance, but Han Ping's greeting was truly friendship.
"Fellow Taoist, you are joking. I envy you even more. You don't have to make connections like us. You have a lot of things to do and you get a headache when you get busy!"
"Where? People like me can't make money, so my practice will fall behind!" Lu Nan said quickly.
Several people are smooth people, they speak tactfully, and they are quite happy.
Seeing that everyone was almost here, people began to serve food. The table was full of dishes, which made people's appetites whet their appetite.
As the owner of this place, Liu Yifeng and two old men wandered among the monks at each table, drinking and having fun, extremely enthusiastic.
"I heard that Fellow Daoist Liu had a rough background before, and he was quite enthusiastic, righteous, and generous! Now that I see him, it's true!" said a monk sitting next to Lu Nan.
"Fellow Taoist is also new here?"
"Yes! I only came here more than half a month earlier than you, Taoist fellow Taoist, and this time I came with fellow Taoist Han to see the world!"
These words naturally caused other people to express different friendly opinions.
"Have you seen the two people beside Daoyou Liu? The one on the left is Feng Ming, the ancestor of the Feng family in Tianshou City, and the one on the right is Yan Zhan, the ancestor of the Yan family. They are both monks in the late stage of Qi refining! Unfortunately, it is not clear which level they are.
Got it!"
······
Everyone was drinking heavily, when suddenly, a loud laughter came.
"You didn't even notify me of the gathering at Liuyunfang. Fellow Daoist Liu is a bit unkind!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a tall-looking old man walked in with the support of several women. The monk guarding the door did not dare to stop him and could only cast a questioning look at Liu Yifeng.
Lu Nan keenly noticed that there was a slight change in the atmosphere.
Just when I was about to ask, I saw that the bustling table had become quiet now.
In the entire courtyard, only a few sounds were heard.
Han Ping and others at the table looked a little restless.
The weird atmosphere lasted until the end of the banquet. Everyone left one after another. When they went outside, they could hear long exhales.
The monks left in a hurry one by one, completely different from the relaxed appearance when they arrived.
"Fellow Daoist Han, why have you become like this?"
"Alas~ Fellow Daoist Lu didn't know that the person who came after the banquet was the ancestor of the Wang family. Under his control, the Wang family behaved domineeringly in Tianshou City. Especially after being promoted to the ninth level of Qi Refining in the past two years, it became even worse.
Many of Tianshou City's common industries are monopolized by them! The market originally wanted to do this, but Liu Daoyou and the other two companies joined forces to stop it!"
"Otherwise, we all have to look at the Wang family's face now!"
"In the past few years, the ancestors of the Wang family would be invited to Liuyunfang's banquets, but then they stopped coming for some unknown reason! This is the first time this year!"
"I guess my ambitions have become bigger!"
"Don't think so much. Don't forget that the ancestors of the Feng Yan family and Liu Daoyou are still supporting you! The Wang family has had this idea for a few days, but when do you think he will dare to take action?"
"That's true!"
Several people felt a lot more relaxed.
"By the way, friend Lu, how much leather paper do you want to buy?" Han Ping asked.
"As much as you want! If possible, you can collect some paper for me! Let's do this. The price of 4.5 yuan mentioned last time does not count. Now I will give you 5 yuan a piece!" Lu Nan thought for a while.
, said.
Liuyunfang doesn't seem to be very level either. It would be nice to get some more parchment paper to avoid any trouble and still allow us to sit on the Diaoyutai safely.
Han Ping and others were overjoyed when they heard this and hurriedly responded.
After the two parties separated, Lu Nan was walking back when he saw a figure standing under a tree, looking like he had been waiting for a long time.
Just as he was hesitating whether to pay attention, the other party spoke first and shouted: "Friend Daoist Lu!"
"It's Fellow Daoist Xu! Are you waiting for someone here?"
Xu Shan thought to himself: Aren't you the one waiting?
Said: "During the banquet just now, I was busy chatting with fellow Taoist Liu and the ancestors of Yan and Feng. I didn't notice fellow Taoist. I'm really ashamed!"
"It's okay!" Lu Nan didn't expose him. During the banquet, this guy secretly looked over at him several times.
It's just that I don't know what the plan is for waiting for me here?
He was still a little resistant to this somewhat strange uncle.
"As long as you understand! By the way, I just saw you and Han Ping and the others together. What were you talking about?" Seeing Lu Nan look over in confusion, he smiled lightly and said, "I don't want to inquire about anything, I just want to
Let me tell you, I have been dealing with them all year round and have a very good relationship. If you need my help in any way, you can just ask! Of course, if it exceeds my bottom line, then it won't work!"
"Fellow Daoist, you are righteous!"
"Say it, say it! As a man, do things more simply!"
"Okay! I told them they needed some parchment paper!"
"Parchment paper? Are you trying to learn some small talisman-making skills? How can it be that simple? I have been in this business for more than thirty years, and I have only just achieved a small amount of success!"
A small achievement? It should be at the proficiency level?
Lu Nan nodded secretly. However, depending on what kind of talisman it is, the proficient-level Xiaoyunyu Talisman and the Little Diamond Talisman are not the same concept.
Of course, he is also very powerful, better than most Talisman Makers.
Seeing Lu Nan's brooding look, Xu Shan felt proud, stretched out his hand to stroke the three-inch goatee he had specially grown, and said: "It's just paper. I have plenty there. How much do you need? I can give it to you!"
"
Lu Nan's eyes lit up, and he looked at the other person much more pleasantly.
"One hundred and eighty!"
Don't be a lion and make reasonable demands.
Xu Shan's jaw hurt, but he accidentally tore off a small piece of beard. He almost screamed in pain, but he still tried his best to steady himself, and said calmly: "Why do you want so much paper? This is the first step of learning to hoard too much paper."
Lots of paper, be careful of losing money!"
Lu Nan probably knew that he probably didn't have that much paper anymore, so he was slightly disappointed, "That's what fellow Taoist said!"
The banquet did not have any impact on him. He ate what he should eat every day and practiced what he should practice. The progress of the Little Treasure Elephant Technique was slow, and he could not even improve a proficiency point for several days. Lu Nan could only put it down temporarily and choose the Little Golden Body Technique and
Little Acid Rain Technique, I plan to practice these two spells to perfection first.
After this period of practice, the attack spell Little Acid Rain is gradually moving towards the stage of perfection.
······
Crackling.
Raindrops as big as black beans fell from the dark clouds faster than ordinary rain, and even Lu Nan felt a sharp breath in them.
This rain brings out the sharp edge of the sword?
"Is this the Perfect Little Acid Rain Technique?"
Standing on the edge, there was a black shadow in front of him, almost forming a line.
"In this way, the attack frequency of acid rain will be higher and stronger, and there will be thunder in the clouds!"
Under the astonishing perception, every drop of rain falling, there will be a small section of gray thunder mixed in the raindrops, and there will be a slight bounce after falling to the ground.
In addition, the mana consumed during driving is greatly reduced, making it almost worth mentioning.
After thinking about it, I took out a small amulet, activated it, and threw it into the acid rain strike range.
Crackling!
The mana aura condensed by the small amulet was quickly covered in jet-black color, and in just one second, the talisman inside burned with a hiss.
The magic shield is broken!
Throw out the activated small golden amulet again.
With his current financial resources, it wouldn't hurt to use one. He was still willing to spend a small amount of money for the first perfect level 0 mid-grade attack spell.
When the faint golden light fell into the range of the acid rain, it suddenly surged, and the golden light almost solidified. However, after only three seconds, it immediately weakened.
Then, it burns directly in the fourth second.
"The little golden amulet explodes with all its strength, and its defense strength is no weaker than ordinary level 0 high-grade defense spells! But it can't last for less than five seconds under acid rain!"
This kind of attack power is already equivalent to a high-grade attack spell.
"If there were high-quality spells to buy, why would we do this?" Lu Nan sighed.
The talisman paper cannot test the thunder effect contained in the spell, but its power is worth looking forward to.
With Gray Thunder, the Little Acid Rain spell can be considered a qualified attack spell. Otherwise, the enemy will easily escape the range of the acid rain.
After changing my clothes, I returned to the practice room and used the next time and mana to draw a small golden amulet.
After settling down, he schedules a full schedule every day, trying not to waste any second.
After drawing for a while, looking at the progress of the spell on the panel, I felt a little hesitant.
"The progress is a bit slow! Could it be that I haven't mastered some skills?" Lu Nan suddenly thought of Xu Shan next door, and was thinking about whether to go over and ask for advice when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Fellow Daoist Han, Fellow Daoist Yang!"
The visitors are Han Ping and her husband Yang Yuan.
The two of them were here to deliver parchment paper.
"A total of 100 yuan! This is the first batch, and there will be more in the future!" Han Ping's face was slightly red and she looked in high spirits.
"Okay! Sorry for bothering you two!" Lu Nan turned around and entered the room, took the spirit stone and handed it to the two of them.
"By the way! I wonder how good your fellow Taoist is at making talismans?"
"It's okay!" Lu Nan hesitated and said.
"Can you draw a small golden amulet?"
"Very reluctantly!" Lu Nan replied.
"That's ok! Can you ask Taoist friends to customize a few for us? We'll buy them at a premium!" Han Ping said.
"Okay! I've got some inventory these days!" Lu Nan took out a few small gold amulets.
I originally wanted to keep these on my body for self-defense. After all, it takes a while to take them out of the storage bag, so I just happened to trade them out now.
