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

Chapter 712 The Great Settlement
After Er Ya finished recounting the story, Jingming closed his eyes and concentrated for a moment. Then he opened his eyes, his gaze filled with determination, and said to the King of War, "Your Highness, I have already figured out how to set up this formation. Now I need to provide the necessary materials and seven absolutely loyal warriors."

The War King nodded slightly and called out towards the outside of the tent, "War One!"

"Your subordinate is here!" Zhan Yi quickly responded and entered, kneeling to pay his respects.

"Your subordinate is here!" Zhao, the adjutant who had been waiting outside the tent, immediately responded and entered.

The War King swiftly issued the order: "Take the jade pendant you use for coming and going, and immediately prepare the following items: seven ten-foot-long red ropes soaked in rooster blood; seven 'Yongchang Tongbao' coins bearing the founding reign title of this dynasty; and summon seven secret guards! They must be the most menacing and resolute!"

The most elite and fearless under the War King's command are the Dark Guards. They are the most determined and each of them has crawled out of piles of corpses. Their murderous aura is so strong that even ordinary little devils would give them a wide berth!

Zhan Yi had already been working outside and was no longer a bodyguard, but this time when he came to the Southern Desert, the War King made him a bodyguard again.

In terms of loyalty, the first principle is absolute loyalty.

He's not usually on the same side as the personal guards, so it wouldn't be appropriate to put him in the personal guards' camp.

Since they wanted to keep him with them, they decided to let him go back temporarily to work as a bodyguard.

"Yes!" Zhan Yi carried out the order without hesitation and turned to leave.

While waiting, the War King looked at Jingming and slowly said, "Daoist, do you remember the positions of the seven soldiers, the arrangement of the jade and copper coins, the order in which the red rope was wrapped and connected, and the incantation for activating the formation? Do you need me to repeat it? Or write it down on paper?"

Upon hearing what the War King said, Jingming quickly replied, "That would be wonderful. Let this young lady repeat it again, and I will write it down!"

The formation was a bit complicated, and he was worried that if there was even the slightest mistake, it would cause trouble.

If the War King agrees to write it down, that would be for the best.

Ideally, you could write down your own information and take it with you, so that you can pass it on to future generations.
Although he thought this way, it didn't show on his face.

The War King nodded slightly, and Jingming stepped forward to take the writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone from the table as instructed by the War King.

Then he politely said to Er Ya, "Miss, could you please repeat the details of the formation we just discussed?"

While Zhan Wang and Jing Ming were talking, Er Ya had already contacted Tang Wan.

Of course, they got in touch very quickly.

Tang Wan had no interest in doing anything else after the War King's formation failed.

I've been waiting for news from Er Ya.

Er Ya was recounting the story, while Jing Ming was taking notes.

When it came to the final step, Tang Wan suddenly remembered that the final activation of this formation required forming hand seals, but without spiritual power, forming hand seals would just be a fancy trick, good-looking but not practical.

No, we have to do it the same way as last time.

So Er Ya instructed Er Ya, "Have Master Quan Shi draw four spirit-gathering talismans and place them around the array's core. Also, find the Heavenly Gang Spirit-Protecting Talisman from last time, and then activate the array."

After saying all this, Tang Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She had felt something was off, but couldn't quite put her finger on it until just now, when she realized that the two Taoist priests didn't have much spiritual power.

There might be a tiny bit of spiritual power in the spring stone, but Jingming couldn't detect any at all.

However, this time, apart from forming hand seals, no other spiritual power is needed. There is another key factor: the essence blood of the War King.

So four spirit-gathering talismans should be enough.

After Er Ya finished relaying the message, Quan Shi got up to draw a talisman.

Before he came this time, he brought all the necessary items for drawing talismans, such as cinnabar and yellow paper.

Thank goodness it came in handy, otherwise he would have brought it for nothing.

Of course, the most important thing is that even if he comes, he has nothing to do and can only watch, which is also quite uncomfortable.

Meanwhile, the War King got up and went inside to find the jade that Tang Wan had mentioned.

The War King found a total of ten jade stones, some large and some small.

The War King remembered what Er Ya had told him: to prepare seven pieces of jade of any size, and also one slightly larger piece for his own use. So the War King picked and chose, eventually selecting eight pieces of jade.

When the War King came out with the jade, he learned that he still needed to draw a talisman with the spring stone and find the talisman from last time.

So he took out the bundle again and asked Jingming to find the talisman.

Jingming had just found the Heavenly Gang Protective Talisman, and Zhan Yi had also prepared all the necessary materials.

At this moment, Jingming spoke up: "The copper coins have just arrived. We need to carve grooves into these jade stones so that we can put the copper coins in."

Upon hearing this, the War King ordered Zhan Yi to take the jade stone and carve it.

Zhan Yi returned quickly.

These things were certainly not carved by him alone; these small dents were nothing to them.

Only then did Quanshi draw a talisman.

However, he said to Jingming, "I just heard that there is a lot of preliminary preparation work. Why don't you arrange the necessary steps first? By the time you have finished arranging them, I estimate that I will have finished drawing them as well."

Jingming thought it made sense and nodded in agreement.

So he ordered the War King to bring out the seven warriors needed for the formation.

Upon hearing the War King's command, seven guards exuding a chilling aura stood solemnly inside the tent in a short time.

This includes, of course, Battle One.

Jingming took the array formation steps he had just recorded, compared them with the array diagram and directions given to him by Tang Wan, and then took out his own compass to search for the location little by little.

Once a location was determined, a bodyguard would be sent to stand in that position.

It took Jingming quite a while to get the seven guards to stand still.

After completing this step, Jingming looked up at Daoist Quanshi and could tell from the Daoist's expression that he had not finished painting yet.

Jingming was still worried, so he went over and asked in a low voice, "Daoist Master, how much longer?"

"This is the last one, it'll be soon, don't worry." Master Quanshi reassured Jingming while continuing to draw without stopping.

Jingming felt greatly reassured after hearing this.

Then he turned around and went back to doing his thing.

He placed the jade stone, which had just been embedded with a copper coin, in a specific spot on the sole of each person's foot.

Just as it was placed, Quanshi's delighted voice came from the other end: "It's done! It's finished!"

Jingming turned back to the spring and rocks, nodded, and smiled knowingly.

Then he addressed the King, saying, "Your Highness, it is time for you to make your appearance!"

The War King knew he needed him; Wan'er had told him before.

Moreover, he heard Er Ya repeating the steps.

So he didn't resist and walked over as instructed.

As the core of the formation, the War King must also stand in the same position, but his position is different from the others.

Jingming used his compass to repeatedly confirm the location before letting the War King stand at the position he designated as the array's core.

Once the War King had settled, Jingming used the blood-soaked red rope to follow the specific and complex path Tang Wan had described, placing the jade stones beneath the feet of the seven people and the War King...
Connect the positions of the key points in the formation.

A red rope was wrapped around the tent, forming a mysterious seven-star pattern on the ground.

Master Quanshi and Master Jingming breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the previous steps had all gone smoothly.
