Master Liu said that this "spiritual shell drop" cannot be solved for the time being, that is, there is really no way to do it, but as long as all my spiritual power is not absorbed, and I can still support my Taoism and move forward, I will be satisfied for the time being.
When I was shirtless in a daze, Master Liu slapped me on the head and said, "Don't be naked, get dressed and come into the house with me, and don't embarrass me when we talk later."
"Yeah!" I agreed and hurriedly sorted out my clothes.
When we entered the room, Sima Shibo, Cao Tianshi, and the old man I didn't know were chatting and laughing at a jujube wood tea table. As for Zuo Qingmu and the little girl Cao Yunuo, they were sitting on the couch in the corner of the room. , but that little girl Cao Yunuo would take out her phone from time to time to play for a while.
Master Liu took us into the room, and Cao Tianshi was the first to say: "Lao Liu, everything is done, come and sit down. I haven't seen you for so many years, let's talk about the old days."
Master Liu asked me to go over there and sit next to Zuo Qingmu, and then he sat down beside the jujube wood tea table, he took a sip of tea and said, "Reminiscing about the old, if there is anything to continue, let's talk about this deserted village. thing."
Sima Shibo didn't speak, Cao Tianshi smiled and said: "It is true that there is nothing old to continue, no one knows what happened when we were young, and we haven't seen each other for so many years, and no one is involved, and we are not next to each other. It's really boring to talk about it, come on, let's talk about this trip to the deserted village."
After Cao Tianshi finished speaking, none of the three Tianshi I knew said a word, but the old man I didn't know took out a talisman and put it on the jujube table and said, "This time in the deserted village, this old bone of mine is I can't go, but you hold this talisman, it is of great use."
As soon as the old man took out this talisman, Sima Shibo, Liu Shifu, and Cao Tianshi simultaneously showed extremely surprised expressions.
Although I wasn't sitting next to me, I could immediately identify the type and rank of the talisman from my years of experience in drawing talismans—the golden rank thunder talisman.
This was the first time in my life that I saw a golden-ranked talisman, so I felt very excited. I could not wait to touch it. Seeing how excited I was, Zuo Qingmu asked me, "Xiaoyong, which thunder talisman is there? What is the rank?"
When Zuo Qingmu asked this question, Cao Yunuo also looked at me curiously, as if he also wanted to know the answer to this question, so I whispered four words: "Golden Rank Thunder Talisman!"
Although my voice was very small, the four people on Master Liu's side could still hear it, so the old man who showed the talisman said: "You can see the level of the talisman so quickly at such a young age. Is that Liu Chunan's adopted son?"
The identity of someone who can sit at the same table with Master Liu is naturally not simple. Now that I was ordered to death, I quickly got up and said respectfully, "Senior has won the prize!"
Master Liu also smiled satisfactorily and said: "Xiaoyong, come here, let me introduce to you, the old guy who praised you just now is called Yuan Yan, and he is one of the few master-level talisman masters in the world. Without a celestial master, the ability to draw talismans is unmatched by few people."
After Master Liu's introduction, I quickly said respectfully, "Master Yuan!"
Yuan Yan smiled and said, "You Liu Chunan, let me introduce you, and you don't have to talk about me not breaking through the boundaries of the Celestial Master, right?"
People also introduced me, so I knew I had nothing to do with me, so I obediently returned to Zuo Qingmu and sat down next to him.
Zuo Qingmu smiled at me and gave me a thumbs up, while Cao Yunuo continued to play with the phone.
Then I heard Uncle Sima say, "Old Master Yuan Yan, if you can donate this golden talisman, I'm afraid you will take out most of your net worth?"
Yuan Yan said: "I invited the Patriarch in my life, and I have painted three golden talismans in total. The first two golden talismans have been used in the deserted village. I hope this third one will give a thorough understanding of what's going on there. ."
After saying that, Yuan Yan pushed the talisman to Master Liu: "Liu Chun'an, you are the highest Taoist here, so you can save this talisman."
When Yuan Yan said this, I was extremely happy, and sure enough, my adoptive father was the strongest of the three Celestial Masters.
Looking at Sima Shibo and Cao Tianshi, they were both smiling. It seemed that no one was denying Yuan Yan's intention. Instead, Liu Shifu pushed the talisman to Cao Tianshi and said, "I'm not bad when it comes to Taoism alone, but I am a person. I am impulsive and like to go it alone, so I am afraid it is inappropriate to take this golden talisman, so give it to Cao Jian.
After Master Liu finished speaking, Uncle Sima and Yuan Yan also looked at Cao Jian.
Before Cao Jian could speak, his adopted daughter Cao Yunuo suddenly said: "Well, that Liu Tianshi is right, my adoptive father is indeed a cunning old man."
What Cao Yunuo said really surprised Zuo Qingmu and I.
Cao Tianshi stopped talking nonsense, put away the talisman and said, "Okay, since Liu Chunan has praised me so much, I'll be welcome."
Then a few people discussed the time and number of people for the trip to the deserted village. Through their conversations, I also know that our operation time is on the first day of the new year. Take me, Cao Tianshi takes Cao Yunuo, and there is no one else.
This barren village is so cruel. Back then, six celestial masters brought a large number of people, and half of them died when they entered. Now we only have three celestial masters and three followers. I am afraid that we are a little weak, right
So I couldn't hold back my "嘚嘚" mouth and asked, "Are the six of us too few?"
Hearing my question, Master Liu said: "The barren village has been to countless great powers over the years, although they have not been able to eradicate the 'killer', but it has reduced its power to a certain extent. That's enough, no matter how many people you call, I'm afraid it will become a burden, and there are not many people who are willing to go to the deserted village."
When I heard Master Liu say this, I said again: "It's not bad for the six of us to go, but one of them..."
As I said that, I looked at Cao Yunuo.
Hearing my question, Cao Tianshi smiled and said, "Don't worry, my adopted daughter will not hold you back. Although she is only eight years old and her Taoism is not as good as you and your brother, she has a magical power that you and your brother don't have. of."
I hurriedly asked what it was, and before Cao Tianshi could answer, Cao Yunuo said from her young left hand: "The left hand is born with a lightning talisman, an ordinary ghost, I can slap it away with a slap, and with this talisman, what? Even ghosts can't get on my body, so I'm a person who will never be blinded by ghosts, and when I go into a deserted village and fight against that illusion, I can't be without me."
The palm pattern of Cao Yunuo's left palm is indeed very peculiar, with the same lines but skillfully delineating a talisman of the Extreme Thunder Talisman.
Zuo Qingmu and I were also amazed by this.
Sure enough, a person who can be adopted by a Celestial Master as an adopted daughter will not be an ordinary person, just like Master Liu accepted me as his adopted son, it is because, because, er, because I have a kind of "spiritual eye" that will kill people. sick.
He meow, why do I sound so sad for this reason
The time and personnel were all negotiated, so we did not get together again, but dispersed to prepare some things, and waited for the day before departure to gather at the Temple of the City God.
That day, Tianshi Cao said that all his things were ready, so he planned to take his adopted daughter to live directly in the Temple of the City God, while Uncle Sima led Zuo Qingmu to go back to the Taoist temple, saying that he still had to deal with it. Housekeeping.
As for me and Master Liu, we went back to my hometown by car.
Master Liu has not been to our place for a long time. I believe that my father and mother will be very surprised.
However, on the way home, I still couldn't help calling them and asking them to prepare some delicious food. Master Liu has not been here for a long time, so I can't be neglected.
When my father received my call, he was naturally very happy. He also said that we must keep Master Liu at our house for the Chinese New Year. I thought at the time, let alone Master Liu, even I can't celebrate the Chinese New Year at home.
Of course, I'll tell them about these things in a few days. After all, I just came back from the provincial capital, so it's better to let them feel at ease for a few days.
When Master Liu and I got out of the car, I saw my father, mother, Xiaowen, and Zhao Laohei all came to pick us up, including Zhao Yuan, whom I have admired for a long time, and Zhao Yuan at this time. She has become prettier and more mature, wearing a red down jacket covering her knees and kicking these long boots, her hair is also loose, no matter how you look at it, she is so beautiful.
After meeting and saying hello, a group of people entered our house. My father said, let Zhao Laohei’s family come to my house for dinner today, Zhao Laohei smiled and said: "My uncle Liu is here, you hurry up. Let's go, and I won't go either."
When the adults got together to chat, our children went to my house to stay for a while.
My house was cleaned up very cleanly, as soon as I entered the house, Xiaowen took my hand and said, "Brother, look, I cleaned it up, you are not here, Xiaowen sleeps in my brother's house every day, and it is clean. already."
I patted Xiaowen on the head and said, "Xiaowen is good!"
Xiaowen said, "I'm already in the fourth grade, brother, don't keep complimenting me with the words you used when you were young."
At this time, Zhao Jie and Zhao Yuan also came up to say a few words, and I asked them how they were doing in Shanghai, and Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "I work as an intern in my boyfriend's father's company, and Zhao Jie's school is too high. Poor, now I can only hope he fights a little bit and takes a book after graduation."
It seems that Zhao Yuan has found a rich boyfriend.
After a few simple chats, Zhao Jie said to me: "By the way, Xiaoyong, You Xiaoqing asked about you a few days ago. Didn't you all go to school in the provincial capital? Why haven't you contacted me?"
I just said: "I've been busy for the past six months, so I didn't care."
You Xiaoqing, I don't know what she has changed now.
We were chatting vigorously here, and I heard my father call us to come over in the outhouse. After we went over, we found that the atmosphere in the room was a little wrong. The adults were sitting there, but everyone was silent, and the expressions on their faces were also different. He looked extremely serious, as if he had just quarreled.
I asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
No one said a word at first. After a while, Master Liu sighed and said to me, "Xiaoyong, kneel down!"
