Chapter 10: Chi You

Jiang Luo asked curiously, "You want to buy my talisman?"

He's more like, "Can I sell this?" He'd rather ask, "Can I sell this charm?

Ge Zhu couldn't avert his eyes, "I, I want to buy it, but I don't have the money ......"

Jiang Luo: "......"

Ge Zhu's words sounded very much like he was playing a trick on Jiang Luo, but his expression suggested otherwise. Not one to miss the subtle look on his face, Jiang Luo gently put down his pen and picked up the talisman.

Ge Zhu's gaze moved with the talisman, and Jiang Luo, after ascertaining the authenticity of his expression, dryly handed the talisman over to him, "It's yours."

Ge Zhu is flattered, "For me?!"

Jiang Luo shrugged, "Well, there you go."

The raw materials used to draw this talisman are all on the table, Jiang Luo didn't even have to put in much effort, so it's worth it to give it away for a favor when it's so easy to make.

Ge Zhu was at a loss for words, holding the talisman paper and movingly said, "Jiang Luo, I can run errands for you, although I don't have any money, I can wash your clothes and scrub the dishes, I'm very experienced in doing this."

Jiang Luo looked at him in a fairy style, and then looked at Lu Youyi not far away who was overflowing with rich people's breath, and could not help but sigh at how colorful the world is, "No need, you teach me more about my studies, that's enough."

Ge Zhu's tears were coming out, "Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Father, there are really more good people in the world. Jiang Luo, you can come and ask me anything in the future, I will tell you whatever I know."

After saying that, Ge Zhu couldn't help but scrutinize the talisman paper again, "The runes are dynamic, the air body is flowing, not to mention that the force contained everywhere is even and the same, it is definitely a rare top quality talisman."

Jiang Luo silently took his words to heart.

This did not happen when the original wrote the talisman, and, thinking about the black qi he had seen earlier in Hotel 129, Jiang Luo felt that these changes were closely related to his own soul.

He may indeed be a little genius.

Ge Zhu looked at Jiang Luo with joy, "Jiang Luo, how is it that all of a sudden, you are able to write such talisman paper?"

Jiang Luo's face did not look different, and just when he was about to flirt, Ge Zhu's expression became a sudden realization, "You must be trying to avenge Chi You's death, so you're getting stronger, right?"

As he said this, he confirmed his suspicions and couldn't help but exclaim, "So love really can inspire human potential."

Jiang Luo's eyes curved into a crescent moon, looking at it one could feel his happiness, "Yeah, he made me get off my ass."

Eighteen times the fetus has been shed, eighteen times the bones have been changed.

Oh.

The movement of the two of them attracted the old gentleman, who frowned as he walked over and said seriously, "What are you doing here if you're not writing talismans?"

Ge Zhu : "Old sir, we ......"

The old gentleman suddenly interrupted him, staring in surprise at the talisman held in his hands, unable to contain his joy, "Ge Zhu, your talisman-writing prowess has improved again!"

Ge Zhu apologized, "Old sir, I didn't write this talisman, Jiang Luo did."

The old gentleman froze and looked sluggishly at Jiang Luo, who clearly saw the heavy suspicion in his eyes.

Jiang Luo's head did not even sweat, the next person has just begun, difficult to move forward, he has already finished writing?

This is like someone telling an old gentleman that "sows get on trees", is this not a joke?

"Really?" Although the old gentleman didn't say anything, his demeanor and mannerisms already indicated disbelief, and he faintly said, "Not bad not bad, Jiang Luo, could you write another one for me to see?"

Ge Zhu hesitated, "It takes a lot of strength to write down this talisman, sir, it's better not to let Jiang Luo write it."

Jiang Luo answered with a smile, "Write another one just like this one?"

The old man looked straight at him, his gaze oppressive, "Right."

Jiang Luo laughed, "Such a simple thing, of course I can."

Disappointment once again filled the old gentleman's eyes when he heard the loud words, "Then write."

Jiang Luo really drew out a yellow talisman and put down his pen easily and casually.

This talisman paper happened from start to finish right under the old gentleman's nose. His eyes slowly widened as he glanced at the talisman paper, then at Jiang Luo in shock.

Jiang Luo half a drop of sweat did not come out, and even feel that drawing charms than drawings much simpler, drawings size precision can not be wrong at all, drawing charms on the more casual, "This is okay?"

Ge Zhu was stunned, "Blessed is the Infinite Heavenly Father ah ......"

The old man was awakened by this sound, abruptly eyes glowing with Jiang Luo just painted the talisman paper in front of his eyes to look hard for a while, laughing turned around and ran out of the class, the rapidity of the action, so that the class of people jaw-dropping.

A group of people gathered around Jiang Luo, who had to draw another one in front of them.

Lu Youyi looked at the talisman he drew, tears almost came down, choking, "You even secretly worked hard behind my back, this time you're no longer the bottom one, the bottom one is going to be me."

Jiang Luo: "......"

Lu Youyi was too sad, he took off his watch from his hand and handed it to Jiang Luo, "Come on, exchange your talisman with me to mend my broken heart."

Jiang Luo glanced at the six-figure watch and instantly turned back toward Ge Zhu.

Ge Zhu alertly tucks the talisman into his shirt and flashes a saccharine smile towards him.

Careless.

It turns out that just this one talisman can be worth six figures.

Jiang Luo immediately shoved this talisman to Lu Youyi, stuffing his watch into his pocket, "Anyone else want it? Cheap sale cheap sale, just this one chance ah."

Zhuo Zhongqiu asked, "How many more can you draw?"

Jiang Luo said, "I don't know."

Holding his chin, he looked at the stack of yellow paper for a moment and mused, "I'll draw one and you guys take one?"

"Yes," Zhuo Zhongqiu reminded, "but first things first, you have to stop in time when you reach your limit."

Jiang Luo: "Good."

As he drew, he listened to Zhuo Zhongqiu and Ge Zhu explain the difficulty of talismans to him.

With the decline of the esoteric world, not only were there fewer weapon smiths, there were also fewer talisman masters. Nowadays, the talisman masters have all entered their old age, and they inevitably have no strength when making talismans. The younger generation did not have any pillars that could stand up, so it was the time when there was a shortage of youth.

At this moment, if you want to buy a good talisman, you need more than just money, you also need connections. The market was in short supply, so most of the talismans that people used were their own drawn talismans, which were of mediocre quality and could only be considered barely passable. Those who really struggled with talismans would buy some worse quality ones from their classmates for daily use.

Jiang Luo listened while he drew the talisman, knowing that things are rare, he drew seven talismans and then put down his brush, "No more, I can't draw any more."

But drawing seven talismans in a row was already a miracle, and maybe the teacher of their talisman class couldn't do this either.

Zhuo Zhongqiu muttered, "Just how long have you wasted your talent before ......"

Seven talismans, in addition to Ge Zhu and Lu Youyi, who already had them, five of them were taken by the rest of the people, one for each. Zhuo Zhongqiu was the most direct, transferring money to Jiang Luo on WeChat, while the others did everything they could to get one for one.

Ye Xun : "I'll fill you in."

That's fine, Jiang Luo nods in agreement and looks to the next person.

Kuang Zheng said with restraint, "I can refine your weapon."

This is very doable, he's been eyeing Ye Xun's grudge dolls for a while now.

Wenren Lian smiled and said, "I can take you to a place where you can buy refining materials and spend very little money to buy the best."

Jiang Luo: "Deal."

Sai Liaoer enthused, "I can teach you, dancing, drumming, singing."

Jiang Luo: "......" what the hell?

"Sai Liaoer is a shaman clan that can invite the gods to his body," explained Wen Renlian, "He needs to dance, beat drums, and sing when he invites the gods to his body, which he uses as an invitation to the gods for the purpose of out-of-body experience."

Sai Liaoer nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I can teach you, I'm very good at it."

Lu Youyi moved to Jiang Luo's side and whispered, "Sai Liaoer can't sing well, I guess it's because it's too hard to hear, so he's never succeeded in invoking the gods, so don't learn to sing from him. Do you know the music room in our school? That is specially built for Sai Liaoer, the sound insulation is very good, just afraid that when he opens his mouth he will scare us."

Jiang Luo was silent for a while and asked Sai Liaoer, "You were the bottom three in your class?"

Sai Liaoer showed a goofy smile, "Yeah, yeah, Jiang, I'm third, Lu is second, you're first, you're the best!"

Jiang Luo's expression twisted for a split second as he shoved the talisman paper into the hands of this foolishly deficient child, "Take it away."

Seeing as he was about to become the second to last, Jiang Luo would not bother with him.

The remaining two talismans Jiang Luo put away by himself, he wanted to try to see if he could deal with Chi You.

All morning, the talisman teacher did not come back. Jiang Luo thought that there was no follow-up on this matter, and when he ate a difficult cafeteria lunch with his classmates at noon, in the afternoon Feng Shui class, the school suddenly gave the news.

Jiang Luo, Lu Youyi, and Ye Xun's points for completing their commissions came down, and because the difficulty was beyond expectation and they brought back a severed ghost that was kept in a flower pot, their points were doubled, and the original four points became eight, and Ye Xun and Lu Youyi's credits were fully sufficient to participate in the competition in Yunnan.

In the whole class, the only one who didn't have enough credits was Jiang Luo, and even with these eight credits, his credits were still a pitiful eleven. However, because he had written a superior talisman, the school gave Jiang Luo an extra ten credits as a first-time reward for the student.

Students with 20 credits will be enrolled in the Yunnan competition, which means that Jiang Luo will have to participate in the National Natural Science Competition for College Students in a month's time.

That night, Jiang Luo moved back to his dormitory, where he checked the windows and doors, and placed a knife under his pillow, along with two suppression charms he had drawn during the day.

I don't know if it's because of the blessing of the two talismans that Jiang Luo slept through the night.

Early the next morning, Jiang Luo opened his eyes, he stretched his back and lazily pulled open the curtains.

Halfway through stretching, Jiang Luo slowly stopped moving.

On the balcony, the corpses of more than twenty birds were lying messily on the ground, and the glass windows were full of blood marks made by the birds, which, at first glance, looked like the scene of a horror movie.

Jiang Luo crouched down and coldly looked at the bodies of these small birds.

What kind of situation would make these little birds crash into his room without a thought for their lives?

Jiang Luo reached out and brushed his hand over the glass window, which was already slightly cracked, and took out two suppression talismans from underneath his pillow.

One of them had turned to dust and the other was slightly burned.

I didn't expect the talisman he drew to be able to withstand the birds and birds manipulated by the Puppet Soul Refining Technique.

Jiang Luo hooked up his lips, re-stood by the window, condescendingly looked at those bird carcasses, suddenly seemed to smile and not smile, "Chi You, so you love me so much."

The tone was fake, "You haven't seen me all night, are you in such a hurry?"

Jiang Luo's own face is reflected in the glass.

Long hair down her back, sarcastic eyebrows, and in her pajamas.

He said slowly, "You're going to get me in trouble for liking me so much. Crushes have to have rules for crushes, you know?"

Jiang Luo turned around with pleasure, and had just taken two steps when a loud crash against the glass suddenly came from behind him.

He looked back instantly.

Only to see a dead bird on the ground, surprisingly re-stood up, they dragged the broken wings and skinned head, don't know the pain seems to hit on the glass crack one by one.

The image, like a zombie bird that would only appear in a movie or novel, was frightening and bizarre.

Jiang Luo's expression sank as the suppression talisman in his hand suddenly burned and turned into ash that slipped down through his fingers. At the same time, those dead birds on the balcony fell to the ground lifelessly as if the thread controlling them had been severed.

Chi You has gotten stronger.

Why?

Jiang Luo suddenly remembered something.

Tonight, it seems to be the seventh day of Chi You's life.
