The Rise of the Marquis

Chapter 80
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall." In the courtyard corridor of the Heyin official mansion, Liu Yu sat opposite Wang Jian, and the two leaned against the railing of the corridor. Falling into a strange flower and grass in the middle, those flowers are a bit like orchids, with beige and lavender petals, and the stamens are bright yellow.

"A general takes the lead, but a leader shouldn't put himself in a dangerous situation, that is to be irresponsible to the people under his rule." Liu Yu's complexion was not good, and his delicate face clearly showed his unhappiness.

"With you here, Zuoqiu Fufeng and Sun Difang can assist you in internal affairs, Wu Yi can lead troops, and Heyang has Uncle Gong in charge; the most important thing is that Lord Wu'an has resumed food assistance to us, which shows that he doesn't want to get nothing, He The enemy that Yang will deal with next is not us, but the Duke of Wu'an in the north, who will at most take a defensive position on the southern border, and we are temporarily safe in this situation." Wang Jian analyzed one by one, not [-]% sure but [-]% sure Eighty percent.

"This is not a safety issue, you will at least be the sheriff of the Han side in the future, you must obey my orders." Liu Yu spoke in a louder voice: "No one can say what is in those swamps.

What's more, folk rumors are not all gossip, and sometimes they are more or less mixed with truth. Our military scouts have indeed disappeared in the swamp. Whether they got lost or strayed into the swamp, it shows that there is full of danger. "

Liu Yu looked at him and saw that he was silent, so he couldn't help but continued: "Do you understand what I mean! Although the lives of soldiers are precious, these are far from putting you in danger. You can send a team of scouts to If you are afraid that they will lose contact or meet the aborigines in the swamp, send more people."

"So concerned about me?" Wang Jian asked jokingly.

"No!" Liu Yu subconsciously denied, and then continued: "Your talent. The big man can't lack talents like you if he wants to advance eastward. I would rather have a few thousand troops need your support. Compared with losing some soldiers, you are more important to the big man. Your hegemony is more valuable. As a Han princess, I naturally have to consider the interests of the country, so no matter what, I can't just watch you take risks and remain indifferent.
I have already written a letter to His Majesty to report your contributions and courage. As long as you continue to stabilize Heyang and Heyin and wipe out the aliens, you will at least be the county guard when the Han army advances. It is not impossible if you want to go further. It all depends on you Performance. "

Wang Jian looked at her dodging eyes, "Not only to remove the hidden dangers in the swamp, but also out of curiosity, I also want to find out what is in the swamp, whether the local legends are true or not."

"Do you have to risk yourself for this?" Liu Yu asked.

Wang Jian nodded, "All adventures have a price."

Liu Yu stopped talking, and she could see from her face that she was very angry.

Wang Jian understands her disappointment. She may think that Wang Jian will be a qualified politician and can become a pillar of the great man in the East. However, Wang Jian is not a complete politician at heart. All the wonderful political and military operations so far are just In order to protect himself, the adventurous and enterprising spirit of the cultivators has always been his background.

In the end, the conversation with Liu Yu broke up badly, and soon the year ended with the joy of the people of Heyin. The locals lit a kind of leaves that would crackle when burned, and danced around the fire to celebrate. Listen to the crackling sound to welcome the new year.

The kind of shrub that can explode when burned is called the fried leaf tree by the local people. Every time the people go up the mountain or go to the forest to cut firewood, they will bring it back and hang it on the eaves to dry. It has a light fragrance and can be burned during the celebrations at the end of the year. The crackling can be heard from a long distance. It turns out that the love of excitement and the sound of hearing is the same everywhere. These fried leaf trees are similar to the role of firecrackers in later generations.

However, people's sorrows and joys are not interlinked. The people who were celebrating happily burned those things and almost stunned Wang Jian, because the shrub that would crackle and explode when burned had another name in the previous life-longxiancao. An important material for refining Jidan.

In those previous lives, they worked so hard, and the priceless treasures were burned and played by the common people. For a while, Wang Jian didn't know what kind of mood he was in, whether he was happy or angry. In short, he had mixed feelings
Afterwards, he immediately ordered Sun Difang to buy those fried leaves and branches from the people on his behalf.

The branches that were only used to burn and play for the children on weekdays were worth money and could be exchanged for food. The people were naturally very happy and rushed to the government to sell the fried leaf branches hanging at home, for fear that the government would not want them if it was too late.

In addition, Wang Jian also made sufficient preparations for the next thing. Thanks to the sufficient spirit stones provided by the Heyin Spirit Mine, he was able to try to make talismans.

The production of talismans does not have high requirements on the carrier, paper or silk can be used. The key is that the ink for writing is actually made of ground Lingshi powder, glutinous rice water, carbon ash, etc. Its essence is a kind of miniature ink. , a one-time small formation that requires spiritual power to activate.

For reasons of confidentiality and other reasons, Wang Jian only recruited Dongfang Jin who had practiced Hehuan Jue to help him grind spirit stone dust to make spirit ink, while he himself continued to practice writing and experimenting. In fact, drawing talismans and seals is similar to that on a small piece of silk Formation is quite difficult when you are not proficient at first, but you will become proficient soon.

On the first day, Wang Jian tried the relatively simple Qingxin Talisman and Borrowing Wind Talisman.

One of these two kinds of talismans can make people calm and concentrate without being disturbed by illusions, and the other can make people feel like they are riding against the breeze for a short period of time, and they can walk like flying. They are the lowest level of talismans.

After getting acquainted with these two simple talismans, he began to try the more advanced wooden armor talismans. This kind of talisman essentially forms a weak aura barrier around people, which can last for about 15 minutes and can resist weak arrows. Arrows, etc., and the more advanced ones are iron armor talismans, etc. These things are not commonly used among monks in later generations, because even though the most powerful Xuanjia talisman seal can be invulnerable to swords and guns, the aura barrier can resist almost all swords and guns, but it is still blocked. Doesn't hold medium to high caliber bullets.
But there are no guns in this world!
Therefore, Wang Jian keenly discovered that if he could make high-grade iron armor talismans or even black armor talismans, it would be equivalent to a quarter of an hour of invincibility in this world.

If he can make a certain number of Xuanjia Talismans, he can create an invincible army. There were not so many spirit stones before, so it was difficult to make one, but now the problem is solved!
Afterwards, Wang Jian tried the ordinary offensive seal talisman, spirit fire talisman and ice gun talisman, with success and failure.

On the last day before departure, Wang Jian came directly to the university. He tried to make the Yujian Talisman. Although his cultivation base was only Qi training, his spiritual consciousness was at the level of Jindan, which should not be a problem in theory.A Sword Controlling Talisman can use the Sword Controlling Technique once, which is a spell that can only be used in the later stage of foundation establishment, and its power is very terrifying. If it succeeds, it will be enough for him to face many risks.
