Chapter 40: Received Talismans (Mid-Autumn Festival)
Chen Lie fell straight down a highway at the southern end of Feiyundu, and then walked in with Chen Shou, which was also a sign of expressing enough respect to the Baigesi of the Witch clan.
They were not here to do business, so Chen Lie only looked for inns in the ferry. Because it was the first time Chen Shou came to such a place, he kept looking around.
I saw that there were shops and vendors selling talismans, elixirs, food, cloth, and even magical instruments on the street, which really opened Chen Shou's eyes. However, he kept remembering Chen Lie's advice. In fact, he had already realized that although it was his first time here, he pretended to be like an old man on the surface and seemed quite steady.
Soon the two of them entered an inn, and Chen Lie asked directly: "Shopkeeper, how can you ask when the next Pingchao Tower ship heading north will set off?"
"It's a coincidence that you two have come here, and there will be one tomorrow."
Chen Lie and Chen Shou were both shocked when they heard this. It was a coincidence that they would have to wait ten days later if they had to wait one day later!
"Okay, do you have free rooms in your store?"
"have!"
"Come to two rooms, stay for only one day."
"Okay."
After that, Chen Lie arranged everything and quickly booked two rooms, and then Chen Shou and Chen Lie went back to their houses.
The world of prehistoric world is a world of witches and demons. Both like to transform into human forms. Some of the witch clans are even born with human forms. According to legend, "people" are the original form of Pangu God who created the world. Since the ancestor Hongjun taught all things, they have become the first choice for the transformation of prehistoric creatures. It is not only out of commemoration and remembrance of Pangu God, but also contains a layer of decentness, just like Chen Shou's suit and lace in his previous life, which is a formal etiquette for contact with people.
Therefore, most inns in this world are built according to the specifications for people to live in. After entering the house, Chen Shou lay on the wooden bed, with thick and soft quilts underneath, which made him feel so comfortable that he almost moaned...
How long has it been since I had such a comfortable bed? Outside of their Gou Chen tribe, the Qi Refining Stage Little Demons like him were basically hanging upside down on the stone beams in the form of beasts. Even if there were beds in the cave, they were all stone beds, and it was luxurious to put some hay. Although Chen Shou didn't pay much attention to these things, lying down still made him feel relaxed and happy. He thought that he would pay attention to it in the future and improve his living standards.
Not long after lying down, he heard the knock on the door. Before Chen Shou could ask, Chen Lie's voice came from outside.
"Uncle San." Chen Shou shouted immediately after opening the door.
"Well, you are leaving tomorrow. I'll give you a few more words and give you what the Great Elder gave you."
"Um."
Chen Lie was just his experience in dealing with things. Chen Shou listened carefully and just talked so much. When he finished speaking, it was already dark outside. Chen Lie has always been a very cold person and didn't talk much. This created a majestic and stern image among the young people of the whole clan. Now he has said so much to Chen Shou in one breath, which shows that he really cares about Chen Shou.
At the end, Chen Lie reached out and took out a small piece of golden leaves and handed them to Chen Shou.
When Chen Shou saw the golden leaves, he exclaimed in surprise, and his eyes quickly turned to Chen Lie's face and stared blankly.
Chen Lie smiled bitterly and said, "This is the wish of the Great Elder, just accept it."
"But, isn't the Great Elder just this flying magic weapon?"
Chen Shou's heart was beating wildly, just because he knew the origin, power and importance of this golden leaf!
"When the Great Elder handed over this Lingfu Jinye to me, he said that for many years, you, the only one in my clan, entered the Xuandu Zi Mansion. Although his realm is still low, he has a bright future. If you don't give this magic weapon to you..." Chen Lie said with a wry smile.
"What about him?"
"Just use talismans to transport it, take it quickly."
Chen Shou knew that he could not refuse at all now, so he reached out to pick up the Lingfu Golden Leaf.
The leaves are long, about six inches long and less than one finger wide, but they are quite heavy and are covered with natural texture and spiritual energy. They are obviously not ordinary things at first glance.
Chen Shou grew up in the Gou Chen clan, and even knew that the Lingfu Jin Leaf was a Lingfu Jin grass when the Great Elder was middle-aged, and then he spent a lot of money to refine this magic weapon! The Lingfu Jin Herb is extraordinary, and the magic weapon refined is even more extraordinary. Although this thing can only fly, it has excellent performance. The Yuanhu clan and the Gedan clan once wanted to buy it for a high price, but the Great Elder was not willing to take action.
Now, this magic weapon that had been with the Great Elder for at least a hundred years was actually in Chen Shou's hands, which really made him feel mixed emotions.
"It's not as good as the tribe outside. You must have to use this Lingfu Golden Leaf, so don't be more mother-in-law and mother. You must work hard outside to live up to the great elder's painstaking efforts."
"Yes." Chen Shou nodded heavily.
Then Chen Lie reached out and took off a small gray cloth bag on his waist and handed it to Chen Shou, "You have extraordinary talent in making talismans, and you naturally consume a lot of money when studying talismans. I don't have magic tools to give you, so I replaced all the money I had with these talisman jade for you to study talisman techniques."
"Thank you, Uncle San." Chen Shou took it and said.
"Why are you polite to me?" Chen Lie said with a smile.
"Hey..." Chen Shou scratched his head embarrassedly with a smile.
The two chatted for a few more times, and then nothing happened. Chen Lie asked Chen Shou to rest earlier, and he walked towards the door.
Chen Lie had just arrived outside the door and suddenly remembered something again, and turned around and said, "This Baigesi is a serious business, and no one on the boat dared to cause trouble. But this time, if you happen to be on the same boat with Yuan Hu Kun and Geshuqi, you must be careful of those two people, especially Geshuqi."
"Well, I know." Chen Shou nodded.
Seeing that Chen Shou was naturally in his expression and seemed to have made enough preparations, Chen Lie felt relieved and turned around and left.
After Chen Lie left, Chen Shou stayed in the house for a while, then simply opened the small cloth bag that Chen Lie had just given him and poured out all the talismans inside.
For a moment, the bright light shone brightly, almost dazzled Chen Shou's eyes. At that moment, his nose also felt sore and almost burst into tears...
There are thirty or forty talisman jades, but most of them are third-grade talisman jades, and there are three or four fourth-grade talisman jades!
He knew very well that Chen Lie had always been selfless in the clan and did not have much family background. These third and fourth-grade Fu Yu were definitely exchanged for all his belongings...
Chen Shou originally thought that the bag should be mostly second-grade talisman jade. Now in this situation, he finally knew that he had greatly underestimated their weight and was really grateful.
The second elder in the clan had already given him some things, but he had given them to him personally before he went out.
He was just a poor boy who had gone out of his family and had no achievements, but he had made the three elders of the clan pay so much. For a moment, Chen Shou felt heavy and even more moved.
Before this, he really didn't think much about spending his energy to repay the kindness of the Gou Chen clan for raising him... In his mind, his biggest wish was to untie the black fire and the mystery of time travel, and everything else was to be ranked behind... This time, the Gou Chen clan finally left a deep touch in his heart.
There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, Chen Lie and Chen Shou left the room and hurried out of the inn.
As soon as I arrived on the street, I saw that it was a witch, a tide of monsters, all of whom were moving northwards. Not only on the ground, but also in the sky, there were also many people, and some demons simply turned back into beastly form, with large and small figures, and all of them were rushing northwards.
"This..." Chen Shou opened his mouth but couldn't answer the words.
Isn’t it just a flat-tide tower boat? There are so many people?!
At this time, Chen Lie pulled Chen Shou and urged: "Go away quickly."
"Um."
The two quickly merged into the crowd and headed north with the travelers who were rushing.
It was obvious that Chen Shou was not the only one who saw this grand occasion for the first time. During the journey, he had heard all kinds of sighs.
But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that this is reasonable. There is only one ferry in a radius of tens of thousands of miles. If all the witches and demons want to go north, they are the fastest and safest way to travel. It would be strange if there are not many people here.
The closer you get to the ferry, the more people you get, the road becomes crowded quickly, and it feels like you can't move.
Chen Shou was anxious, and Chen Lie suddenly reminded him in his ear: "Be careful of your own things."
"Well, don't worry, Uncle San." Chen Shou said with a smile.
Without storage talismans or magic tools, he put everything in his arms instead of hanging it on his waist. It was not so easy to be stolen in front of him, not to mention that he has always been careful.
Just as he was worried that he could not walk forward, for some reason, the front suddenly became quiet. Chen Shou looked at Chen Lie, but saw Chen Lie shook his head, not sure why.
Then, the witches and monsters in the sky actually fell down or flew away, which soon restored the sky to its bright light.
