Xiuxian: My skills have entries

Chapter 216 Accidental Discovery (4k)

"Why... why is this necessary?"

Yang Hao looked at the stack of talismans and hesitated slightly.

Although with his current essence, as long as he upgrades his talisman-making skills to level 3, he can basically make third-level talismans.

But at this level, what restricts Yang Hao is no longer the difficulty of making talismans, but rather the limitations of various talisman making methods and talisman-making materials.

"Hey, fellow Taoist, please don't refuse in a hurry. This stack of talismans of mine is not an ordinary thing sold in the market."

When Li Ruo saw this, he said with a proud look on his face.

"Oh? Then please give me some advice from fellow Daoist Li."

Yang Hao's expression changed and he asked aloud.

"Does Fellow Daoist Zhou know about the 'Pure Winding Talisman'?"

Li Ruo winked and gave it a try.

"Zhou is willing to hear the details."

Yang Hao raised his eyebrows and cupped his hands.

In fact, as a part-time talisman maker, he naturally knew that this pure talisman was a third-level talisman used to destroy spiritual creatures.

However, since Li Ruo asked this question in front of him, he obviously wanted to enjoy the joy of being a teacher, and Yang Hao would not dampen his interest.

"That would be a shame."

Sure enough, when Li Ruo heard Yang Hao say this, he couldn't hide the joy on his face.

"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Zhou has any experience in dealing with ghost-like enemies? Yin-hun enemies are basically immune to most physical attacks. If a monk with insufficient soul cultivation encounters them, it will really be a big trouble."

"And this pure entanglement talisman is exactly the third-level talisman used to deal with such enemies."

"The Pure Wrapping Talisman can add a layer of special power to the attacking magic weapon of fellow Taoists to defeat ghosts."

"With this kind of power, Taoist friends can cause considerable damage to the ghosts even with ordinary slashes."

"And this netting talisman below is even more outstanding among them."

"After using it, not only the damage to the ghosts can be increased by about 20%, but also a layer of shield can be added around the fellow Taoist to resist soul attacks. In addition, its duration is also greatly extended, reaching an astonishing half an hour. !”

"In this way, fellow Taoists will have the upper hand in future battles with ghosts."

Li Ruo spoke eloquently for a long time, and his words were filled with incomparable pride in his talisman-making skills.

"My fellow Taoist is so skilled? Isn't the value of this talisman very expensive?"

Yang Hao had a look of surprise on his face and followed the other person's words and praised the other person.

"How can the kindness of fellow Taoist protectors be measured by money?"

Li Ruo smiled shyly and stuffed all the net talismans in his hand into Yang Hao's arms.

"Fellow Daoist, there will be an appointment in the future!"

Li Ruo then said goodbye to Yang Hao and flew towards his mission location.

Yang Hao looked at the other person's retreating back and laughed dumbly.

Originally, he thought that the other party would attribute all the credit for his survival to the big boss he made up.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, I saw that this man was quite knowledgeable.

"If there is an opportunity in the future, I can help him."

Yang Hao thought to himself.

Although these things are a bit insignificant compared to the life-saving grace.

But this person's behavior made Yang Hao feel quite comfortable.

"Okay, it's time for me to carry out my own mission."

Yang Hao took a closer look at the Pure Wrapping Talisman in his hand. Seeing that the runes on its surface were full of aura and full of beauty, he knew that Li Ruo's words were indeed not too exaggerated.

Even if it is not as powerful as the other party said, the real effect should not be far behind.

……

After half a minute.

Turn cloud city.

In the center of the city, there is the shrine.

"Disciple Du Ruojun, pay your respects to Master Uncle."

A young man in floral robes was bowing respectfully to another bearded man in simple clothes.

This bearded man is naturally Yang Hao who transformed into Zhou Yi.

After saying goodbye to Li Ruo, he followed the mission instructions and flew all the way to the Enshrinement Mansion in Fanyun City.

The young man in brocade robes in front of him is Du Ruojun, a late-stage foundation-building disciple stationed here by Baguio Palace.

"Excuse me."

Yang Hao looked at the respectful Du Ruojun in front of him, and felt inexplicably happy.

There was a time when he, like the young man across from him, could only bow respectfully to other high-level monks without daring to say anything.

And now, he can finally enjoy the same treatment.

Sure enough, in this world of cultivating immortals, strength is still respected after all.

"Disciple obeys."

Du Ruojun slowly straightened up, but never looked directly at Yang Hao to avoid any possibility of disrespect.

"Uncle Master, it's not easy to come all the way. My disciples have prepared delicious food and wine, silk and bamboo orchestra, and are willing to help Master Master."

Du Ruojun cupped his hands again, lowered his head and said.

"Oh? You are really interested, please lead the way."

Yang Hao said lightly.

"Thank you for the honor, Uncle Master. Having a great man like you here really brings glory to this humble house."

Du Ruojun smiled slightly and praised him one after another.

"Ah."

Yang Hao was noncommittal.

To be honest, even though I know that such compliments are not very sincere, they do sound very comfortable.

I don’t stretch out my hand to hit anyone with a smiling face, and the ancients sincerely don’t deceive me.

……

Since both of them were monks, they didn't walk long before they came to a large and magnificent house.

"Master, please."

Du Ruojun made a gesture, with a smile on his face and enthusiasm in his eyes. No one could find fault with his etiquette.

"Ah."

Yang Hao didn't say much, strode inside, and had a good experience of the persona of a cold boss who was ruthless and didn't talk much.

Once inside, all kinds of splendid furnishings came into view instantly, even compared with the palaces in the previous movies.

Fortunately, Yang Hao was well-informed, but he was a little surprised in his heart, but there was no emotion on his face.

'This uncle is quite reliable. '

Du Ruojun, who followed closely, glanced at Yang Hao secretly and thought to himself.

In fact, this is not the first time Du Ruojun has received a Jindan monk.

He has been guarding Fanyuncheng for 30 years.

In such a long time, it is inevitable to encounter some strange things that need to be solved by Jindan monks.

During these events, as a foundation-building disciple guarding this place, he naturally had to fulfill his duties as a landlord and entertain these golden elixir monks.

Although those golden elixirs had a lot of experience, after seeing his layout, their expressions were more or less touched.

Unlike Master Zhou in front of him, he could really be called calm.

'Very well, this blood sacrifice incident of evil cultivators seems to be resolved soon. '

Du Ruojun felt a little excited.

After guarding this place for 30 years, even if he is an immortal cultivator, he still has some feelings for this place.

If the scourge of evil cultivators can be solved as soon as possible and fewer people die, even if it costs a little more, he is quite willing.

"Chunju, Qiulan, why don't you come up and serve the Lord?"

After inviting Yang Hao to sit down, Du Ruojun called two beautiful women and asked them to wait on Yang Hao.

Yang Hao sized up the two women with his blind eyes.

These two women are just mortals without any spiritual power in their bodies.

But looking at his Qi and blood, he is very strong and strong.

Presumably, these two women also practiced martial arts secrets of a high level.

If we put it in the martial arts novels of the previous life, it should not be a problem to become a little dragon girl, not to mention becoming a supreme master like Dugu Qiufei.

But in this world of cultivating immortals, such martial arts masters can only become maids of cultivators.

It can only be said that bad luck means that one is born at the wrong time.

"It doesn't have to be like this. Just explain to me about this evil cultivator's blood sacrifice."

When Yang Hao thought about it, he lost much interest and waved.

"Yes."

Du Ruojun was relieved when he saw this.

In fact, these two women are not ordinary maids. They were specially summoned by him this time in order to solve the evil cultivator matter as soon as possible.

It would be better for him and the second daughter if he could not pay this price.

"Uncle, please have a meal."

Du Ruojun clapped his hands and ordered his subordinates to serve tables of delicacies cooked with spiritual objects, and then explained the cause and effect of this matter to Yang Hao with a solemn expression.

……

Half an hour passed.

Yang Hao was full of wine and food, and also learned the details of the evil cultivation incident from Du Ruojun.

about a month ago.

In the slum with the worst environment in Fanyun City, there was suddenly a smell of blood that had not dissipated for a long time.

The yamen sent by the government to check on the situation all fell seriously ill when they came back and were unable to wake up for several days.

This unusual situation was immediately notified to Du Ruojun, who was guarding the place.

After sending someone to check, he immediately discovered traces of evil cultivators' activities.

While reporting the matter to Baguio Palace, he secretly pursued the matter.

Unfortunately, these evil cultivators are very cunning.

Du Ruojun tried his best but made no progress, and almost died because of it.

Since then, Du Ruojun has not dared to act rashly.

Fortunately, the group of evil cultivators seemed to know that they were acting too arrogantly, and no more blood sacrifices occurred in the following days.

Until five days before Yang Hao arrived.

A similar incident occurred again in Guding District, located in the downtown area of ​​Fanyun City.

But this time, the scale of the evil cultivator's blood sacrifice was even larger, and the movement was more violent.

For a moment, people in Fanyun City were panicked.

And it was this blood sacrifice that made Baguio Palace increase the importance of this mission.

Then, Yang Hao arrived.

……

"This group of evil cultivators are so arrogant, I'm afraid they have a lot of confidence. For the sake of safety, I'd better start the investigation from the first blood sacrifice site."

Yang Hao waved his hand and rejected Du Ruojun's proposal to see him off, and flew towards Fanyun City's first blood sacrifice site.

Fanyun City is not big, and Yang Hao only flew for less than half a minute before arriving at the slums located in the south of Fanyun City.

"Hiss, this smell..."

As soon as Yang Hao arrived here, an extremely foul smell of sewer rushed towards him.

Even, because the cultivator's sense of smell is more sensitive, the stench is super doubled.

He quickly released a first-level minor technique "Qingqi Technique" that he had learned before, and he felt much better.

Of course, given his physique, it wouldn't be a big deal if he smelled the stench.

However, why should he bear this stench when he can breathe fresh air?

We have all become immortal cultivators. There is no need to wrong ourselves in such a place.

"However, since this place is under the rule of Baguio Palace, why do there still exist slums?"

Yang Hao circled around.

The dirty and messy environment, as well as the poor people walking in ragged clothes and numb faces, are everywhere.

Yang Hao even saw a few devoured bones in some dark corners.

For a moment, he felt a little confused.

It stands to reason that with the ability of an immortal cultivator, it does not take much effort to produce enough food to feed a whole city.

This situation should not exist right now.

After all, the reason why Baguio Palace rules here is only to cultivate more talented disciples.

How do you know that among these poor people who are starving to death, there won’t be people with spiritual roots?

"It's horrible."

Yang Hao looked at the little boy who was robbed of steamed buns by a few tall boys not far away, and sighed repeatedly.

He didn't know if the upper echelons of Baguio Palace had any other ideas, but based on what he saw right now, Baguio Palace's policy of ruling Fanyun City was not very reasonable.

Moreover, if slums are eliminated, the soil for evil cultivators to survive will be greatly reduced.

Wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?
Why did Baguio Palace act like this?
Yang Hao was deeply puzzled, but now he was just a golden elixir, unable to influence the decision-making of such a giant as Baguio Palace.

All he could do was show his kindness to the little boy he met by chance.

"Thank you sir, thank you sir!"

The little boy devoured the fragrant white steamed buns. While eating, he kowtowed vaguely to Yang Hao to thank him.

"Eat slowly, don't choke."

Yang Hao smiled gently and stopped the little boy's kowtow.

He is not a saint, and he cannot eliminate poverty in the entire world of immortality in one fell swoop.

But it is still within our power to take care of the injustices we encounter personally.

"Kid, uncle wants to ask you something. Do you know what happened here a month ago?"

Yang Hao was about to leave when he suddenly thought that this little boy was a local here and might know some details that were easily overlooked at Du Ruojun's level, so he quickly asked.

"A month ago? Are you talking about the incident where the immortals sent disasters?"

The little boy had almost finished the steamed bun in his hand and looked at Yang Hao in surprise.

"The immortal brings disaster?"

Yang Hao repeated these four words repeatedly, and was both laughing and crying for a moment.

A farce caused by evil cultivators, in the eyes of ordinary mortals, turned out to be a disaster caused by immortals.

Somewhat ironic.

Speaking of which, this is also the reason why Baguio Palace has not publicized its existence among the mortals here.

Otherwise, even poor children in slums would not be so ignorant.

"Yes, that's what happened. Uncle wants to investigate the cause of this incident. I wonder what the children know?"

Yang Hao came back to his senses, smiled gently, and asked the little boy.

"My... my lord, you'd better not inquire about this matter, it's very... very dangerous."

Hearing this, a trace of fear clearly flashed across the little boy's face, and he shook his head at Yang Hao crazily.

"Oh? Danger? Where is the danger?"

Yang Hao narrowed his eyes and became interested.

Originally, he just asked casually and didn't expect the little boy to answer anything useful.

But looking at it now, it seems that there are indeed other tricks that are not known to the immortal cultivators.

"..."

The little boy was still shaking his head wildly without saying a word.

Seeing this, how could Yang Hao not know that the other party was worried.

He immediately took out three more fragrant big steamed buns from his arms and said seductively: "Kid, if you tell uncle, these big steamed buns will be yours!"

"Big steamed bun!"

The little boy sniffed the aroma from the big steamed bun, his eyes were full of longing.

"Huh? How about it?"

Yang Hao smiled slightly and turned the steamed bun in front of the little boy's nose, letting the aroma of the steamed bun fully flow into the little boy's nostrils.

"Gollum—"

The little boy couldn't help but twitch his Adam's apple, and the saliva in his mouth couldn't stop secreting.

"I……"

"Who are you and what do you want to do to my son!?"
