Longevity begins with the sword of ignorance

Chapter 113 Meeting Yan Lingwei Again (3300 words)
Five-element spells can operate on their own and automatically increase experience.

What Zhong Cang needs to practice now is kendo and Tianxin.

Hmm... Now add one more talisman.

As for the latter, Zhong Cang quite liked it.

This is a skill that can earn spirit stones.

Although Zhong Cang now has the blessing of his master, he does not lack any resources.

But he can't always rely on his master, and he still remembers his promise to his uncle Zhong Kangping, so Zhong Cang is very interested in the talismans that can earn spirit stones.

The next day, at dawn, Zhong Cang went down the mountain and came to Sihai Pavilion.

The reason why I come here is that the things sold here are the most complete and guaranteed.

And when Zhong Cang was choosing the talisman paper and spirit ink, to his surprise, a familiar figure broke into his eyes.

"Lingwei, are you here to buy something too?"

"No, Miss Ben came here specifically to find you idiot. Four days later, our disciples who entered the inner sect of the same class will hold a banquet in Tianxiang Tower, and I will inform you to attend."

"Not interested in."

Compared to banquets, Zhong Cang prefers cultivation.

His reply also made Yan Lingwei sigh.

"I knew you would say that, but this time, you must participate. Knowing a few more fellow students will not do any harm to you, an idiot!"

After finishing speaking, finding that Zhong Cang still hadn't changed his mind, Yan Lingdie said something that made Zhong Cang narrow his eyes.

"You don't want to repeat the mistakes of your master, do you?"

"What do you mean?"

Seeing that Zhong Cang finally responded, Yan Lingwei shrugged and said:
"Although Mr. Qin is obsessed with formations, and his cultivation talent is not extreme, but with his talent for formations, there are many people who want to make friends and invest. If he accepts these things, he has a great chance to gather golden cores. But, When he was young, his personality was the same as yours now. He only cared about studying and ignoring the secular world. He ignored people’s invitations to parties. He thought they were stupid and refused to go when he was invited to discuss the Tao. Someone asked him to go to the cave, Looking for resources in the secret realm, he also feels that it is better to study at home."

"There is no fellow daoist, no friends, not even a master. A formation genius like him has only been wasted for a hundred years and has delayed the condensation of pills. Don't you want to do the same?"

"Besides, this party, there will be a reason for the loud noise in the sky, and a great opportunity, aren't you curious?"

"..."

These words made Zhong Cang silent.

He had to admit that what Yan Lingdie said made sense.

Although Zhong Cang would not be delayed in the golden elixir because of the real shape map of the Five Viscera Shrine, but getting to know a few more people might indeed make his path of cultivation smoother.

However, Zhong Cang also knew his character.

In his previous life, he was an otaku, and he was not good at talking with people.

In this world, Jianxin and Tianxin, although Zhong Cang's cultivation base increased rapidly, it also made his emotions more indifferent and more straightforward.

In this case, it is very difficult for him to make a close friend.

Being so troubled, Zhong Cang finally chose to refuse.

"Thank you for reminding me, but with my personality, I can't make many friends even if I go there. It's better to practice at home."

These words didn't dispel Yan Lingdie's idea of ​​pulling her away, instead she puffed out her chest and laughed.

"Aren't you good at talking? It's not a problem. Miss Ben is still here. Then, you will stay with Miss Ben, and I will introduce the people around you."

"..."

Such concern made Zhong Cang's eyes a little strange.

And this kind of gaze made the fox-like Yan Lingwei feel a little embarrassed.

"Shh..."

After opening the folding fan and half covering her face, she smiled and said: "Why, because of my understanding, do you like me?"

"But it's not enough, you didn't confess your love to me, my girl, and you didn't show enough sincerity..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhong Cang said in a speechless voice: "I like... I should say this sentence, right?"

"Both of us, obviously you are more enthusiastic."

"Snapped!"

The last sentence made Yan Lingwei unable to hold back.

The folding fan was put away, and even though the smile on her face hadn't faded yet, for some reason, this smile always gave Zhong Cang a dangerous feeling.

After staring at Zhong Cang for a while, Yan Lingwei smirked and said, "Zhong Cang, has anyone told you that you are very bad at talking?"

"...Yes, I said it myself just now, I'm not good at talking, and I can't make close friends. It's better to practice at home than to go to gatherings."

"..."

Such an unexpected answer silenced the angry Yan Lingwei.

She closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before she calmed down, and said to Zhong Cang with a smirk, "You are right, you really can't speak, but this girl is open-minded, and I don't, mind, care about these small things. , I will help you."

When saying the last few words, Yan Lingwei gritted her teeth.

And this also made Zhong Cang shake his head, and sighed in his heart.

"The status of old disciple Qin is more attractive than I want."

That's right, Zhong Cang took Yan Lingwei's win over as his respect for old disciple Qin.

As for falling in love with herself, it is still possible for the pure Yan Lingdie. The fox-like Yan Lingwei has always been a scheming and ambitious girl in Zhong Cang's eyes.

He will never forget that the reason why Yan Lingwei first found herself was to use herself to ruin Yan Lingdie's reputation.

She is absolutely impossible to act emotionally like this.

And thinking of the flame spirit butterfly, for some reason, Zhong Cang suddenly had a feeling in his heart, which made him turn his head to look to the side.

However, when he turned his head, he saw nothing except the bustling figures.

Just when Zhong Cang was debating whether to activate Tianxin or Jianxin to sense the rhythm of the people around him, Yan Lingwei's voice sounded beside him.

"By the way, why did you buy so many talisman papers and Lingmo?"

This voice made Zhong Cang give up the opening of Tianxin, and replied casually: "The three are closely related, you know."

"Of course I know... Wait, your master, you won't let you learn to draw symbols first, then learn how to refine weapons, and finally learn formations, right?"

"Is there a problem?"

"The problem is big!"

Covering her face, Yan Lingwei said tiredly: "I finally understand why Mr. Qin's talent is so good, but he has been delayed for a full 100 years... whoever cooks a meal, but also grows vegetables!"

"Uh...it's different, the master said, learning talismans and then learning how to refine weapons can deepen my understanding of the formation."

In this regard, Yan Lingwei did not refute, she nodded and said: "It is indeed feasible. After learning this way, you will indeed understand more deeply than others. But the key is time. The formation is difficult to learn. Do you know how much time you will waste if you are distracted to learn talismans and weapon refining? Doing so, it is far better to find a few confidant smiths and talisman masters to cooperate... Oh, Mr. Qin has no confidant refiner friends."

"..."

This time, Zhong Cang was also silent.

Division of labor and cooperation is indeed feasible.

In the previous life, many great inventions and theories were derived from the division of labor and cooperation of human beings.

Even a god-man like Einstein borrowed Riemann's mathematical tools when deducing the theory of relativity.

This kind of situation where a physicist is looking for a mathematician to cooperate is no different from that of an array mage looking for a refiner.

But Master Zhong Cang is not good at talking and doesn't have many friends, so he chooses to deduce everything by himself.

And because he was used to this situation, he taught Zhong Cang in this way.

Now, after figuring out the reason, Zhong Cang fell into a tangle.

"Do I need to find a craftsman to cooperate with the formation like an ordinary formation master, instead of doing everything by myself?"

After careful consideration, Zhong Cang finally chose to follow in the footsteps of his master.

The reason for doing this is that Zhong Cang needs the help of his master, and if he does not follow his path, it will be easy for the master and apprentice to be distracted.

The other is that there are few formation masters and even fewer formation masters, but Mr. Qin has become a formation master after walking like this, which shows that his path is correct.

Of course, the most important reason is that Zhong Cang felt that with the attribute panel, he would have one more talisman drawing skill, which would not waste too much time.

After telling Yan Lingwei about his final choice, Zhong Cang, not surprisingly, saw the expression of 'children can't be taught' on her face.

Surprisingly, in this situation, she still did not part with Zhong Cang.

Instead, she found out that Mr. Qin felt that drawing talismans was a trick, and after letting Zhong Cang teach himself, she grabbed Zhong Cang and took him to meet the master of talismans.

"Don't listen to your master, people will defend their own way and despise others."

"Sword cultivators think they are invincible, Lei Xiu thinks everything under me is rubbish, alchemists think that alchemists are just blacksmiths, and they rely on foreign objects, it is difficult for them to enjoy the road. And alchemists jokingly call alchemists It is a group of medicine pots, and they say that the medicine is three-point poisonous. They take medicine every day, and their bodies become poisonous. It is proficient in everything, but not in everything.”

"Even though Mr. Qin is a master in the art of formation and has also cultivated talisman weapons, he has never studied these two paths carefully. Not to mention that he doesn't teach it himself, even if he goes into battle in person, it is not as good as studying the talisman way of talismans. Master's."

Zhong Cang agrees with this statement.

It's just, why did he ask Master Fulu to teach him with all his heart.

Such considerations made Zhong Cang not want to waste time.

But Yan Lingwei pulled him over.

"Don't worry, there is me. That talisman master is my aunt, who loves me very much. As long as I beg, she will definitely teach you with all her heart."

"...Don't you feel that you have invested too much in me? Are you afraid that I will be a white-eyed wolf, and if I don't repay you, I will let you fetch water from a bamboo basket?"

"Brother Cang, I believe in you. Moreover, even if I am deceived by you, I am willing."

These words made Zhong Cang's heart tremble, although Zhong Cang felt that the girl in front of him would never trust her so purely.

But if a beautiful girl said this, even a man would not be indifferent.

The same is true for Zhong Cang.

"...Don't have so much confidence in me, I don't think I'm a good person myself."

"Hee hee, it's okay, I'm not a good person either."

With Yan Lingwei's support, the conversation between the two became better and better.

However, just when she thought she could continue like this, Zhong Cang's next words made her face darken.

"It is true that my character is indeed noble compared with yours."

"boom!"

Holding the folding fan tightly, a cold smirk appeared on Yan Lingwei's face again:
"Zhong Cang, should I remind you that you still have to ask me now."

"Sorry, I was wrong."

When he clasped his hands together to apologize, seeing Yan Lingwei's familiar 'smile', Zhong Cang also heaved a sigh of relief.

"It smells right, the familiar feeling is back."

"The girl just now made my heart flutter for a moment. It's really dangerous."
