Chapter 15 Making a Talisman
He Changyou asked Zhuang Yunde to register the various distributions he had just made with jade slips.
The location of the spiritual field assigned to each person was clearly defined, and the seeds were taken out of the storage bag and distributed to everyone.
However, when it was Chu Ning's turn, he did not give it to him, but said:
“I really didn’t expect that any of you would choose to plant the seeds of the Black Spirit Bamboo, so I didn’t bring them with me. You can go back with me to get them.”
With that said, He Changyou turned and left, and Chu Ning quickly followed.
Looking at the backs of the two people, others started talking.
“I didn’t expect Chu Ning to choose to plant black bamboo!”
“Yes, the black bamboo is difficult to grow. Senior Brother Yuan, it is even more difficult to grow than the purple sweet potato fruit you chose.”
…
The words of several people fell on Yuan Guang's ears, which immediately made Yuan Guang, who looked arrogant and unsmiling, very unhappy.
“It’s really overestimating one’s ability to cultivate the Black Spirit Bamboo even if you are on the second level of Qi Refining!”
Hearing what Yuan Guang said, everyone else asked what was going on.
Yuan Guang was about to speak when he saw Zhuang Yunde still standing beside him. The arrogant expression on his face suddenly calmed down and he said respectfully:
“Senior Brother Zhuang, I remember that if this Black Spirit Bamboo wants to grow well enough to meet the requirements for making talisman paper, it must be continuously improved with the Aoki Chunhua Technique.
I don’t know if I remember correctly? "
Zhuang Yunde, who had a round figure, nodded and said with a smile:
“This junior brother remembers correctly, this Mo Lingzhu and Chi Lingmi are still very different.
Even if Sekiremi uses the Aoki Chunhua Technique, the upper limit of the quality that can be improved is there, and it cannot be much higher.
But the Mo Ling Bamboo is different. There is a huge difference between those whose quality has been improved by using Qingmu Chunhua Technique and those whose quality has not been improved.
However, it is too absolute to say that you must use Aoki Chunhua Technique to improve the quality before you can make a talisman.
As long as the talisman maker has good skills, he can still make talisman paper, but the quantity of talisman paper produced will be much smaller.
So if the quality of the Mo Ling Bamboo planted is not good, the amount turned over to the sect will be larger, and you will hardly be able to keep anything.
This Junior Brother Chu now chooses to plant Black Spirit Bamboo on the second level of Qi Refining..."
Zhuang Yunde said this, but did not continue.
But Yuan Guang did not think about it carefully. He turned his head and looked at everyone, with an expression on his face: "You have all heard it?"
Everyone also started to compliment him one after another at this moment.
“Senior Brother Yuan, your choice is safer.”
“Tsk, tsk, has Senior Brother Chu forgotten this?”
…
Everyone's expressions were somewhat of a spectator, except for Qiu Shunyi and Zhuang Yunde.
Qiu Shunyi had a worried look on his face, while Zhuang Yunde had a thoughtful look on his face, but his expression flashed past.
Immediately, Zhuang Yunde said: "Let me show you your respective spiritual fields and residences first."
On the other hand, Chu Ning certainly doesn’t know this.
The reason why I chose Mo Lingzhu was naturally because I had refreshed the talent of Fuyuan Spirit Body.
The next step is definitely to choose the talisman path, so you have to build some connections with this path first.
As for Mo Lingzhu’s need to cultivate Qingmu Chunhua Technique, Chu Ning had already thought of an explanation.
The same reason is that he is more compatible with the Qingmu Changchun Technique, and he has already started to use the Qingmu Chunhua Technique.
What surprised him was that He Changyou never mentioned this matter, nor did he ask Chu Ning why he chose to plant black bamboo.
When he arrived at the location, he took some bamboo rice from Mo Lingzhu and sent Chu Ning away directly.
Chu Ning thought about all this on the way back. As he thought about it, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was still too worried before.
Qingxi Sect will have new disciples every once in a while, and naturally there are all kinds of people among them.
As the deacon of Baiyi Hall, He Changyou naturally meets countless people.
After all, I am just a handyman disciple of the "Second Level Qi Refining". Even if the other party guesses that I may be capable of Qingmu Chunhua Technique, it is not a big deal.
After all, with so many disciples, there are always some who perform better. Although the Black Spirit Bamboo is a little more difficult to grow, it is not too rare.
Although I got a little limelight today, as long as I keep a low profile and don't show off, there should be no problem.
On the contrary, after planting the Black Spirit Bamboo, how to get in touch with the talisman making process is something that I have to consider later.
At present, it is better to take one step at a time and do the things in front of you first.
When Chu Ning returned to the original place, everyone had already dispersed, and Chu Ning didn't know how to find the spiritual field assigned to him.
Thinking about it, he walked to Cao Dongxin's residence, preparing to pack his things first.
What surprised Chu Ning a little was that Qiu Shunyi was waiting for him outside the yard.
As soon as he saw Chu Ning coming back, Qiu Shunyi rushed to Chu Ning and asked anxiously:
“Chun Ning, you really want to plant that Black Spirit Bamboo. I heard that it’s not easy to grow…”
He crackled on and talked about what everyone was discussing just now. After hearing this, Chu Ning just said calmly:
“Shunyi, thank you for your concern. I’ll give it a try. If it doesn’t work, I’ll just treat it as a smaller harvest this season.”
“Oh, you, forget it, you have already received the seeds.”
Qiu Shunyi sighed and said nothing more. Then he remembered something:
“Oh, by the way, that Senior Brother Zhuang asked you to wait for him here. He will take care of the others first and will come to take you later.”
Chuning, who was worried about who to look for, heard this and quickly went back to the room to pack his things.
After he packed up his things and came out, he found that Shang Zhaoxiang and Cao Dongxin had also returned from the fields.
Seeing Chu Ning come out, Shang Zhaoxiang was the first to speak with a smile:
“Junior Brother Chu, I have heard what Shunyi said. Congratulations. You have 2 acres more of the top-quality spiritual fields in Ding District than we do.”
Shang Zhaoxiang's words made the expression on Cao Dongxin's face become more complicated.
The two of them also farmed 10 acres of spiritual land in District D, but they only had 3 acres of high-grade spiritual land, 5 acres of medium-grade spiritual land, and 2 acres of low-grade spiritual land.
Now, Chu Ning’s starting point is higher than them.
This is also the consistent rule of the sect. For disciples with strength or potential, resources will be given extra weight.
Chuning heard this and arched his hands towards the two of them.
“Thanks to my two senior brothers for their support during this period.”
Shang Zhaoxiang said polite words, while Cao Dongxin wanted to say soft words to ease his previous harshness towards Chu Ning, but in the end he still couldn't save face.
Chun Ning was too lazy to pay attention to the other party.
Although Cao Dongxin has been a bit harsh in the past three months, driving him to the fields also made him discover the benefits of Qingmu Chunhua Technique in helping him practice.
It can also be regarded as an unexpected surprise.
At this moment, Zhuang Yunde came, and Chu Ning said goodbye to the three of them and left.
The two walked for a while, and a smile appeared on Zhuang Yunde's round face, and he asked softly:
“Junior Brother Chu chose to plant Black Spirit Bamboo, so he must be familiar with Qingmu Chunhua Technique, right?”
When Chu Ning heard this, he did not hide it and admitted directly: "I have just started, and I still need to practice more."
Zhuang Yunde nodded.
“I just watched my junior brother perform the activation and clearing techniques very skillfully. It must be very consistent with the wood attribute techniques.
By the way, Junior Brother chose to grow this Black Spirit Bamboo. Could it be that he is interested in making talismans? "
After hearing this, Chu Ning suddenly became wary and asked:
“Senior brother, why do you ask this?”
Zhuang Yunde smiled and said, "This kind of black bamboo is not easy to grow, and there are generally few candidates.
Junior brother has just joined the sect, so if he wasn't interested in making talismans, how could he have thought of this thing. "
Chun Ning did not admit it this time, but shook his head and said:
“I just heard that this black bamboo can be used to make talisman paper, and the harvest is good, so I want to try it. I don’t know anything about this talisman making process.”
Zhuang Yunde smiled again when he heard this, "Don't worry, you might as well see how Junior Brother's Mo Ling Bamboo is doing."
Chu Ning's heart moved. Could it be that there was something behind Zhuang Yunde's words?
However, after saying this, Zhuang Yunde stopped talking about this topic, and talked about other things that should be paid attention to when planting spiritual fields alone.
Then he took Chu Ning to identify the spiritual field and the courtyard, and then left directly.
After seeing Zhuang Yunde off, Chu Ning looked up at his separate yard, with a smile on his face.
“I finally have my own one-third of an acre of land, oh, no, it’s ten acres!”
