Lucky Farmer Girl: I rely on metaphysics to support my family

Chapter 707 Shocked
Jingming was greatly alarmed and went to look at the Taoist Quanshi beside him.

The Taoist priest followed Jingming's gaze to Er Ya, feeling somewhat puzzled. However, he was not skilled at physiognomy, so he did not notice anything unusual about Er Ya's appearance. He only felt that Er Ya's aura was a bit strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.

Moreover, this person was a guest of the War King, so he dared not go too far.

So he gestured to Jingming, telling him to be patient and observe carefully before making a decision.

The subtle conflict between Jingming and Quanshi was resolved in an instant.

Er Ya wasn't paying much attention; she was communicating with Tang Wan.

The War King did notice, but he didn't say anything.

Given Er Ya's condition, it's normal for someone knowledgeable to see something amiss.

However, with him here at the moment, it's alright. As for the future, there probably won't be many more times like this.

So the War King slowly spoke, "Er Ya, you speak!"

"Yes!" Er Ya replied readily. While the War King was sending someone to summon the two sorcerers, Er Ya had already contacted Tang Wan.

“Master Jingming is skilled in setting up formations. I wonder if you could set up a defensive formation?” Er Ya asked neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Master Jingming paused, realizing he had just said he would listen to the person in front of him.

Why are you asking me now? Jingming paused slightly before saying, "Although I know how to set up formations, I only know some simple confusion formations. Please don't hesitate to teach me."

Tang Wan heard Er Ya say that this Master Jingming only knew simple confusion formations, and that it was even more impossible for the other party to have a high priest.

Tang Wan originally wanted to set up a defensive rune array.

Such a formation only requires finding the talismans that I gave to the War King before, placing them in the east, west, south, and north, and adding the magic artifacts that I had the War King give to the two Taoist priests before, and the formation should be successful.

However, considering the final step, which requires activating the rune array, this step requires both spiritual power and runes.

The fear is that these two Taoist priests don't have enough spiritual power to form a complete formation.

After thinking for a while, Tang Wan felt that time was running out and she still had to try. If it didn't work, she would think of other ways.

So he said to Er Ya, "The formation I'm going to teach you is called the Defensive Talisman Formation. This formation is generally unbreakable. As for whether the High Priest can break it, I can't be sure yet, but in any case, it will definitely buy you time."

Er Ya relayed these words to the War King and the two Taoist priests exactly as they were spoken.

Then Tang Wan began to teach how to set up the formation: "Have the War King find the bundle I initially gave him, and have the two Taoist priests find four defensive talismans from the bundle. Although my defensive talismans are not quite the same as the ordinary ones, Taoist Quanshi should be able to recognize them."

Er Ya relayed the message to Zhan Wang as before, and Zhan Wang went inside to find the bundle that Tang Wan had originally given him.

Bring the bundle, but Er Ya doesn't get close.

Although she appears normal now, and ordinary talismans don't usually affect her, her master's talisman is particularly powerful, and she feels somewhat uncomfortable.

The War King opened his bundle and beckoned the two Taoist priests forward.

Master Jingming was somewhat bewildered after seeing so many talismans.

Although he is not good at drawing talismans, he recognizes most common talismans.

But there were many symbols here that he didn't recognize.

Fortunately, he had some knowledge of springs and rocks. As he searched through the bundle, he became more and more alarmed. Many of the talismans were ones he had never seen before, but he could recognize some of them. He found quite a few legendary lost talismans in this bundle.

Following Er Ya's instructions, he found four defensive talismans, examined them carefully, and sighed inwardly, but did not show it on his face. Instead, he respectfully handed them to the War King: "Your Highness, these are the defensive talismans."

The War King took the talisman and looked at it. Although he couldn't make out anything, he couldn't help but look at it again and again because it was drawn by his beloved.

After a moment, the War King looked at Er Ya again. Er Ya had already told Tang Wan when she took out the bundle.

Tang Wan had already begun instructing her on how to set up the formation: "Have the Jingming Dharma Master, who is skilled in formations, place the four talismans you found in the four directions of east, south, west, and north respectively. Then place a magic artifact in the northwest direction, and also place a magic artifact at the core of the formation."

Er Ya relayed Tang Wan's instructions verbatim.

"Let them set it up first, and we'll talk about the next step after they're done," Tang Wan instructed.

Upon hearing Er Ya's words, Master Jingming looked at Quan Shi, who nodded. Although he didn't know if the formation would work, the defensive talisman was genuine.

Moreover, he examined it carefully and found that the talisman was full of spiritual energy. The defensive talisman itself could play a role, not to mention the formation that needed to be set up.

Jingming took out his compass, holding it in one hand and a defensive talisman in the other. He walked around the tent, stopping and starting, and after a while, he placed the four talismans around the tent.

Then he looked at the War King and said truthfully, "Your Highness, I am ashamed to say that I do not currently possess any decent magical artifacts as the young lady mentioned."

It's fine to fool around normally, but in such a critical moment, the quality of this ritual implement could be the key issue.

I don't have a single decent item on hand. If something goes wrong because of this, I could lose my head. I can't afford to be reckless.

"I have some here. The magical artifact that the master you met last time asked me to give to you two. I brought it with me on this trip." After saying this, the War King got up to find another bundle.

The War King returned, carrying two boxes in his hands.

One big and one small.

The War King handed the box in his hand to Master Jingming and said, "Use these two magical artifacts for now, and you can divide them up later when you've used them up."

"Yes!" Jingming didn't dare to say anything, took the box with both hands, and replied.

After the War King left, Jingming gestured for Quanshi to open the box.

Quanshi opened the box on top. As soon as the box opened, Quanshi could feel a pure spiritual energy rushing towards him. It turned out to be the "Emperor Bell". The "Emperor Bell" is a common ritual implement in Taoism.

However, very few people possess truly spiritual magical artifacts.

Most of them are just similar in appearance. I didn't expect the fellow Daoist I met last time to be so generous, giving away such a powerful magical artifact so readily.

When Jingming saw that Quanshi had opened the box, he quickly opened the rest of his own box as well.

Inside is a furnace or cauldron.

This furnace is no ordinary object.

The fellow Daoist had said he would give them two magical artifacts as a gift, but they hadn't received them and thought he was just saying it casually. They didn't expect it to be true.

Although Master Jingming was not as skilled at drawing talismans as Quanshi, he was able to read faces.

So you can tell that he's angry.

Whether a magical artifact possesses spiritual power can also be discerned.

This furnace clearly has abundant spiritual energy; that fellow Daoist is truly generous.

Jingming and Quanshi exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

However, he still had to put the magical artifacts away and wait for the next steps.

Master Jingming took his compass, found the northwest direction, and first put down the furnace.

Then, he began to search for the location of the array's core.
