"I bought it! The best cinnabar, and these blue frost papers."
Yu Meng immediately put away the smile on his face, and hurriedly took out a jade bottle the size of a bowl and a stack of green papers from his arms, and handed them over with both hands raised high.
He looked a little nervous, and his eyes secretly glanced at the old man through the gap between his hands, as if observing the old man's expression.
Shen Luo casually glanced at the thing in Yu Meng's hand, and his heart moved.
He was very familiar with the paper; it was the talisman paper used for drawing talismans.
However, this green talisman paper was thicker than the yellow paper he used, and was obviously of a much higher quality.
The old man in golden robe waved his hand, and the thing in Yu Meng's hand rose into thin air. Pulled by an invisible force, it crossed a distance of three or four feet and fell directly into the old man's hands.
"Telekinesis!" Shen Luo's eyes widened a little and he shouted inwardly.
He had seen a description of this method of telekinesis through magic in a magazine or book in Chunqiuguan. He had been yearning for it at the time, but he had never known whether it was true or not. Now that he had observed a real person performing it from such close range, he couldn't help but feel excited.
The old man did not pay much attention to the green talisman paper, but was quite concerned about the jade bottle. He pulled out the cork and looked inside.
Then he picked up a tiny bit of the red powder with his little fingernail, smelled it, and finally tasted it with his tongue before he said "hmm" with satisfaction.
Yu Meng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
"The cinnabar we bought this time is pretty good. Follow this standard in the future. Don't get inferior goods again, or I'll show you how I'll deal with you... Well, who are you?" The old man was halfway through his words when he noticed Shen Luo standing behind Yu Meng.
"Father, this is Brother Shen Luo, who fought against the wolves with me on the city wall today. He just arrived in the city and hasn't found a place to stay yet, so I invited him to stay at my home. Brother Shen, this is my father Yu Yan, whom you have met during the day." Yu Meng introduced hurriedly.
"Shen Luo meets Uncle Yu." Shen Luo stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
Yu Yan glanced at Shen Luo, nodded casually, and put the talisman paper and jade bottle in his arms.
"Today on the city wall, I had the honor to see my uncle and several immortal masters in action. It was really an eye-opener. Especially my uncle's talisman technique, which was incredibly powerful. I admire him very much." Shen Luo wanted to get closer to the immortal master in front of him, but when he saw Yu Yan's cold expression, he changed the subject and changed the topic to talismans.
"Do you know the art of talismans?" As expected, when talking about talismans, Yu Yan's eyebrows twitched and he took a look at the tattered Chunqiu Taoist robe on Shen Luo.
"I only know a little bit. I am dull and have not made any achievements in the art of talismans after years of practice. My magical powers can never compare with my uncle's." Shen Luo said with a bow.
"The art of talismans is different from other Taoist methods. It is obscure and boring. It takes a lot of time and hard practice bit by bit to achieve something. If you can really persist until now, this kind of mentality is really rare." Yu Yan nodded slightly and glared at Yu Meng beside him while speaking.
Yu Meng scratched the back of his head and turned away guiltily.
When Yu Yan saw this scene, he snorted heavily.
"Uncle, you are too kind. I was once possessed by evil spirits and could not find a cure. Fortunately, a master saved me with talismans. Since then, I have been yearning for the art of talismans and want to achieve something." Shen Luo saw the expressions of the two men and said humbly.
