The rising sun shatters the darkness!

Chapter 205 Teacher's Favor

Gu Pan rolled his eyes.

It’s actually quite pleasing to see the other person being unable to let go of the gift you gave him/her. It makes people feel a sense of pleasure in helping others.

But his true face revealed made her very unhappy.

Oh, when you ask for help, just call me teacher, and when you get something, just call me by my name, right?

There is no polite stuff.

A traitor who destroys the bridge after crossing it!

She was thinking of this angrily, but saw Xu Shu click on the upgrade driver. After operating it for a while, he stared at the interface with a sad look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Gu Pan asked curiously, wanting to get closer to see what was going on.

However, Xu Shu decisively turned away, not allowing her to peek, and said with a look of despair, "It's nothing, I just suddenly felt that life has been full of ups and downs, and after decades of hard work, I'm back to the time before liberation."

"What?"

Gu Pan wrinkled his nose and thought, you are only eighteen years old, why are you so sad?
Her thoughts raced as she discovered that a mysterious light suddenly fell in front of Xu Shu, and then a small incense burner the size of a palm condensed out of thin air.

It is small and exquisite, quaint and lovely, with lines of inscriptions engraved on the edge of the stove, densely packed together, forming a dizzying pattern;
There were two sandalwood sticks, one foot long, in the incense burner, waiting to be lit.

Because it appeared inexplicably, it seemed both mysterious and weird.

"Could this be... the Heart Fire Incense Burner used to enter the ruins?"

Gu Pan was knowledgeable and experienced, so he guessed most of the information right away.

However, Xu Shu shook his head: "Almost, but not completely. This thing only has half the function of the Heart Fire Incense Burner."

Seeing that the contribution points he had worked so hard to accumulate for half a month were directly cut by 186 points from 100 points to 86 points, Xu Shu's heart was filled with unspeakable grief.

It hurts so much, it really does!

However, the situation is special at this moment and this is a necessary expenditure.

Just think of it as an investment in yourself.

Xu Shu comforted himself like this, and mentioned the brand new blue talisman and the old sword mark that Gu Pan gave her, and said seriously: "I am grateful for your kindness. I will definitely repay you for this in the future. Let's not talk about it now, teacher, the next night watch will be left to you!"

"Huh? What are you going to do now?" Gu Pan suddenly became suspicious.

"It's almost dawn. There's no time to explain now. You'll know after it's done. Just wait and see." After saying this, Xu Shu ran away to the quiet little room upstairs.

Seeing that he was mysterious and unwilling to speak, Gu Pan had to sit down by the campfire reluctantly, cursing in his heart: "Damn it, you're calling me teacher again because you need something from me, you snob, I hope you give birth to a son without an asshole before you finish your sentence!"

……

……

On the second floor, Xu Shu randomly found an empty room, locked the doors and windows, made a clean area on the abandoned old bed, and sat down.

"I never thought that Gu Pan is so rich. I really underestimated her before."

"Well, come to think of it, she must have chosen the path of a martial artist. This mark must be the advancement material that her family originally prepared for her. It's just that she got the epic curse mark by chance, and this thing just happened to be vacant."

“Hey, with this thing, Wang Teng finally has a foolproof way to get the materials to advance to the first level!

Xu Shu's "beacon" Wang Teng had been stuck at the first level for a long time due to the lack of a suitable martial artist's curse.

Originally, he planned to try to use the epic-level physician's curse and add Xuan Zhang's [Bloodline] to synthesize it, but in this case, the uncertainty would be too great, because both entries were epic, so the result would definitely not be a pure martial artist's curse.

Therefore, Xu Shu had been thinking that he would buy it once he had accumulated enough contribution points, but he found that he could not find the purple seal in the trading area.

Unexpectedly, Gu Pan actually had such a copy. It was like a pillow coming to me as soon as I fell asleep, solving my urgent problem.

And by using a purple curse seal of lower quality in combination with a golden mysterious seal, you can upgrade it to a golden curse seal. What you get is a 100% pure martial artist curse seal.

For Xu Shu, this is already a relatively good choice.

Although it is not a legendary curse, but because Wang Teng has the destiny of being "born with diamond", he does not need a legendary curse.

"Just give this item to Curse Fetus Wang Teng, and I will follow the original plan to carry out some operations and obtain the required materials. In just one day, I will be able to directly upgrade. In this wasteland, strength is everything..."

Xu Shu was eager to try it out, his eyes shining with the thought.

Of course, the "this and that" is easy to say, but it is very complicated to actually do, and may not succeed the first time.

But now that things have come to this, Xu Shu will naturally not let go of even the slightest chance.

Anyway, there will be no mistakes in the first step. As for the second step, we’ll talk about it when the time comes!

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and immediately took the ancient-shaped small sword mark, and at the same time held the "talisman" which was similar to the curse crystal, and carefully and cautiously inserted the small sword into the talisman.

When it comes to synthesizing seals, Xu Shu is no longer a novice, but a veteran with extremely rich "practical experience".

According to the known "chemical" formula he discovered through his own experiments, mark + talisman or spell crystal equals a complete spell mark.

Among these, the quality of the mark can at most be one level higher than the carrier [Talisman] that carries it.

And now these two things just happen to conform to the basic theorem. The mark of the small sword is purple, and the talisman is blue.

As the front end of the small sword broke open the hole in the talisman and inserted from the bottom, filling it up tightly, the runes inside the entire talisman began to shake on their own, completely wrapping the blade of the small sword.

Not long after, the latter suddenly reached its limit and exploded, transforming into one wriggling spell after another, filling the positions that originally belonged to the runes, replacing them all.

This talisman, which was originally azure and transparent, completely completed the fusion and turned into a curse seal surrounded by purple air.

This thing is a small piece the size of a palm, long and rectangular, like a small wooden sign. It is a first-level "Martial Artist" seal, a flawless seal.

The grade of the curse is determined by the mark, and the level depends on the level of the carrier itself.

Therefore, when a first-level talisman is made into a finished product, what is obtained is a first-level curse seal, and it cannot be transformed into a second-level one.

Then, without any hesitation, Xu Shu took out a strangely shaped object that looked like a twisted mask, with spiral serum circling upwards inside.

It is Xuan Zhang: Bloodline (Epic)!

Xuan Zhang is a thing that seizes the fortune of heaven and earth. Its function is to be used to engrave the curse and add an entry.

Each curse can only be engraved once at most.

"Hey, I wonder if the curse seal that has been contained can be engraved? I have an extra blood relationship here. Since Gu Pan is so generous, it's not impossible for me to try to give her an opportunity. Whether she can grasp it depends on her own ability."

Xu Shu took out one of the [Bloodline].

Although Xu Shu had only learned the method of engraving the curse by accident once, he was still confident about it.

He held the [Bloodline] seal in his left hand and clenched it tightly; and the newly acquired purple "Martial Artist" seal was placed on the palm of his right hand.

A faint erosion of cursed power and an almost visible purple aura permeated the surface of the curse seal, burning Xu Shu's palms and causing him to feel waves of tingling pain.

After a few breaths, Xu Shu discovered that the [Blood Relationship] suddenly disappeared. It used his own blood as a medium of transmission and entered the curse in an instant.

The golden tadpoles quickly suppressed the purple light.

At this point, an epic "Martial Artist" curse was completed.

Xu Shu was not too happy because there was still a lot to do.

He quickly put this "hot potato" aside. [Bloodline] itself can be stored in the Taichu Volume prop bag, but once it is fused with something not produced by the Taichu Volume, it can no longer be put back, which is exactly the same as when the Black Widow cursed it.

Then, Xu Shu once again turned on the upgraded network's light-quality screen, and among many unchecked friend requests, he opened the chat with "my sister's bride" Xie Xiaochan.

As soon as he opened it, Xu Shu was suddenly stunned to find that the other party had more than a dozen messages, which he had never seen.

What caught my eye was a sentence: "Of course I can do it. Making talismans is the main job of us Taoist nuns. It's just that our jobs were taken away by those stinky orphans." - Xie Xiaochan, a second-level seven-color Taoist nun.

"Why are you asking this? Did you get something good and want me to help you? Let me make it clear first. If you let me help you, the labor fee will be 88 points per time. No cheating!"

"How about it, do you want to do it?"

The date showed about a week ago.

Xu Shu was stunned for a moment.

Is there anything to be done? What is she talking about?
He suddenly remembered the first time he and Xie Xiaochan met by chance. She sent him more than 88 friend messages, which made him shudder. He couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that she is short of money recently and wants to make some pocket money by helping me remotely? Damn, 88 points for one time is too shady. That's equivalent to in cash!"

Bah, you damn, depraved fellow, you still say you are not a slutty nun?!

I'll think about it once more!
Xu Shu first cursed her in his heart for this improper behavior, then flipped through the pages and saw his own question. The content was: "Sister Xie Xiaochan, I want to ask if you can make a talisman?" - Gu Pan.

The dispatch date is the same day.

Xu Shu:?
Hiss, such a flattering tone... This, this is me?

He leaned back slightly, shocked at his own audacity.

"Oh, now I remember. It was the day after I killed the vampire lord and his little maid that I asked her if she knew how to cast spells." Xu Shu recalled and suddenly realized.

He looked at the following conversation again:
"Why don't you say anything? Can you give me 70 yuan cheaper?"

"say."

"65, I'll take the loss."

"What about people?"

"Brother Pan, I treat you as my own brother, so I'll give you a friendship price of 50! 50 can't be lower!"

"Why are you ignoring me? Did you go to find another Taoist priest to make a talisman?"

"Forget it, forget it. I'm not the kind of person who would take advantage of such petty gains. I won't charge you any money. Just send it to me."

"Where are the people? Beep beep beep beep~~"

"Drip drop~"

——The above were all sent by Xie Xiaochan alone, and Xu Shu did not reply even once during that period.

While she was making the "beep beep" sound, Xu Shu recalled that it seemed that he was busy killing Su Ji Herrera's head that popped out of the Book of Demons that day.

After that, he was caught up in a battle of wits and courage with Dizang, and had no time to read the news.

"It turns out that she had already told me that she could make spells."

Xu Shu's eyes lit up. This saved him the trouble of asking again.

However, the most urgent thing is to trick her into accepting the "bloodline" seal that he made.

This is actually very simple, and Xu Shu naturally has a good idea.

He typed with both hands and quickly sent the message:

"Good night, are you asleep? I have something urgent to talk to you about. Hurry."

After sending the message, there was no reply for a few minutes, so Xu Shu began to imitate others and kept typing the same sentence:

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!" *555!

Thank you, Xiaochan. Just don’t turn on the do not disturb mode.

-

In the northern border, in the Nuxu Palace, in the disciple residence, in a pink boudoir, Xie Xiaochan, who was lying on her back and sleeping soundly, kept feeling a buzzing vibration.

She scratched her body randomly for a while, trying to get away with it, but the buzzing sound was too persistent and annoying, so she finally had to get up with a red face from her earlobes to her neck, and turned on the driver fiercely.

"I want to see who dares to disturb my sleep in the middle of the night!"

Xie Xiaochan's eyes lit up red as she saw Xu Shu's message as soon as she opened it.

She was slightly stunned, and after thinking of certain things, her anger suddenly disappeared a lot.

"He has been ignoring me for a few days. I was almost able to break through this barrier. Why did he do this suddenly?" Xie Xiaochan bit her lower lip and flipped through dozens of pages of "Hurry Up" until she saw the incoherent sentence on it.

In desperation, she could only reply, pretending to be cold: "What?"

the other side.

Having finally succeeded, Xu Shu first breathed a sigh of relief and immediately typed the sentence he had carefully considered:
"Two things. The second thing is to ask you to do me a favor and make a second-level purple spell."

Xie Xiaochan was stunned for a moment: "Second-level purple talisman? That requires a second-level erosion crystal of the same quality. Although I promised not to charge you for the labor, you don't want to get the materials for free, do you?"

Xu Shu said: "Of course not. I will provide the materials and an erosion crystal."

"That's amazing. You can get such good stuff. Oh, I see. You want to upgrade to the second level, right?" - Xie Xiaochan.

"You guessed it right. How long will it take to be completed? I'm still waiting for your invitation to go to the ruins together." Xu Shu adopted the strategy of giving sweets.

Xie Xiaochan was young and ignorant, and was fooled: "Well, I guess you have a conscience. Okay, leave it to me. With the main materials in hand, it can be done in two hours at most. But let me make it clear first, I won't charge you this time, but if you ask me to do work next time, I will charge you more. What else do you want?"

How many hours will it take to make?
Very efficient...

Xu Shu touched his chin and continued typing: "The second thing is, I will give you something later. My teacher calculated that you will have a bloody disaster in the near future. Only this thing can save you. Hey, in order to help you, I have bled a lot. You must keep it a secret for me."

Xu Shu told her to keep it a secret for him, but in fact he was not afraid of her leaking the secret. With Wang Teng around, he actually had a strong control over Xie Xiaochan to a certain extent.

As for how to control it, it is difficult to say. You can only experience it yourself in the legend.

While he was feeling proud of his "control ability", Xie Xiaochan on the other side was so frightened that she woke up from her doze.

She did feel unwell recently. Could it be some disaster?
People who practice Taoism believe in fate the most. Her heart was suddenly in her throat, and she asked hurriedly: "What bloody disaster? And who is your teacher?" - Xie Xiaochan.

Xu Shu pretended to be mysterious and said, "It is not convenient to tell you the identity of my teacher. He is a big figure in the extraordinary world. You will be scared if I tell you. Anyway, I will send something to you before dawn. Remember to go to the Star Tower teleportation point in time to receive it. Please also help me make the talisman in time and mail it to me by the original route. Which district are you in?"

He has a stove and two sandalwood sticks, and can send and collect them on the spot, which is just right for collecting the finished props.

"District D2B9, but who is your teacher? Does he know me?" Xie Xiaochan was quite anxious. She hated being kept in suspense the most.

After learning the "delivery address", Xu Shu sent another message: "Your cooperation will save you. By the way, a friendly reminder, no matter what happens, please do not open the package casually or show it to anyone, otherwise you will be greatly hurt. As for the use of this life-saving straw, if you feel severe pain tomorrow, put this thing on your stomach and use it as a warm baby."

Xie Xiaochan was confused: "??? What is this hot pack? And why will I have severe body pain tomorrow? Explain yourself clearly!"

“The secret cannot be revealed. Remember to go to the Star Tower to receive the goods, otherwise even my teacher can’t save you!” - Gu Pan.

After pretending to be a charlatan, Xu Shu did not reply any more. He said this on purpose because he was not afraid that Xie Xiaochan would not go.

Seeing that it was almost dawn, he quickly walked to the roof, walked to an open area, set up the incense burner, and lit one of the sandalwood sticks.

Amid the curling smoke, an invisible wave descended directly from the sky, and the light spread in front of Xu Shu's eyes.

[You have chosen the Star Tower Tour, and are requesting array authorization for you...]

[Array authorization successful, building a temporary launch device for your tour...]

[Warning, this tour can only carry non-living objects, please be sure to abide by this rule...]

[Construction successful, generating a disposable aircraft for you...]

【success. 】

【Please choose your destination!】

brush!
A radar-like pattern appeared in the smoke, building a temporary delivery launch platform, something like a small rocket launcher.

"Sure enough, it's a bit similar to when I flew directly back to the Star Tower from the ruins before."

"The transmission provided by the array is naturally safe."

Xu Shu chose a destination from the virtual world, and then wrapped the second-order erosion crystal from Lance and the [Bloodline] seal he had just made in a torn bed sheet he found on the spot, tightly fitting them together, and wrote "Received by Xie Xiaochan of Nuxu Palace" on the outside.

After waiting for a long time, until the night turned into the last darkness before dawn, Xu Shu stuffed the "express package" into the light-like space rocket, watched it fly into the sky, and completely disappeared from sight.

Afterwards, he cleaned up the scene, quickly returned to the first floor, found Gu Pan, and muttered a few words.

The latter's eyes widened: "You mean, you want to practice now? You can directly obtain the second-level materials through practice???"

At this moment, Gu Pan was completely confused.

Now, she has completely changed her mind about Xu Shu's "esoteric religious secrets", and no longer regards them as something deceptive from a cult, but as something with real knowledge.

But aren’t you going a little too far this time?

How could you possibly cultivate the material? Wake up! You are becoming more and more like a neurotic cultist!
However, the next moment, after Xu Shu asked her for a favor, he saw a hint of paleness in the east, and then he walked to the corner and sat down cross-legged on the spot.

Gu Pan followed and wanted to persuade her again, but suddenly, she trembled and said, "Wait, wait a minute! Wait a minute, let me..."

Before she could finish her words, she saw clouds of smoke rising from the spot. Then, Xu Shu once again gave way to her and disappeared from the spot.

——Legend mode, continue the legend, start on the spot!
