Chapter 40 Master Zhou

"Master Zhou, Dafu is bothering you, and I hope Master Haihan."

Looking at the respectful Boss Zhou, the gray-clothed old man waved his hands casually without paying much attention. His gaze was only fixed on Xu Chen in front of him. After a while, he suddenly Stretching out his withered fingers, he kept forming seals in the void, then pointed at Xu Chen and shouted, "Rope binding!"

Seeing the actions of the gray-clothed old man, Xu Chen was startled. He wanted to dodge, but he was shocked to find that under the void seal of the old man, he was imprisoned by extremely strange entanglement forces!

Then the old man's eyes flickered with terrifying lights, and Xu Chen could clearly feel the extremely strong mental fluctuations emerging from the old man's body, which was even bigger than his own!

"Little guy, are you interested in becoming an inscriber?"

The next sentence of the gray-clothed old man directly made the smile on Boss Zhou's face stiffen, and he was a little surprised that Mr. Xu was so favored by Master Zhou.

"Scribe?"

Xu Chen was also taken aback when he heard the words, and looked at the old man in gray. He didn't expect that there would be such a hidden expert hidden in this extremely remote place in Yuanwu City. Inscription master can be regarded as an extremely rare profession. Attach the mastered talisman to a certain utensil, then this utensil will have a special ability.

For example, the gold-type talisman has the effect of sharpness and damage bonus, and the poison-type has the effect of corrosion, weakening, and blood loss.

For this Master Zhou, Xu Chen was a little wary. It would be too unrealistic to say that he was willing to promise you a fortune when he met an old man casually.

"Master Zhou, my boy's strength is low now, and he has to concentrate on refining medicine. If he learns the inscriptions again, there may be something wrong. I hope you will forgive me."

When Xu Chen quickly rejected Master Zhou's benefits, all kinds of colors appeared in the eyes of Boss Zhou who was beside him. How many members of their Zhou family were begging to become disciples of this Master Zhou in front of them?In the end, he couldn't get what he wanted, and he dared to refuse? !
"Hehe, it's true that there is a specialization in the arts. Together with a talisman master, if you want to achieve something, even if you spend your whole life, it is very difficult to do it." The straightforward refusal obviously made the old man in gray stunned, and then smiled. , "But stones from other mountains can be used to make jade. If you learn some knowledge of inscriptions properly, you may be able to get some inspiration. It will be of great help to you in learning the knowledge of refining medicine."

How could Xu Chen not know?However, the more enthusiastic the old man was, the more he dared not agree. The old man's terrifying strength is also a very extraordinary figure in the entire Yuanwu City. Why did he live here and carve jewelry? for a living

"Old man, don't you allow the younger generation to go back and ask the teacher before coming to worship the senior as a teacher?" Xu Chen replied cautiously.

Xu Chen's evasion stunned the old man for a moment, and then a huge but extremely gentle mental power enveloped him.

Xu Chen didn't feel the slightest malice, so he let the old man go.

After a while, the gray-clothed old man shook his head dejectedly: "I didn't expect that you would be the disciple that man favored. Although his strength is not very good, the power behind him is extremely troublesome. Not right, not right!"

I have a teacher?Xu Chen was taken aback for a moment, but bowed his head in thanks: "Thank you, old sir."

"Seeing that you are so polite, I will give you some small gifts for the old man, which is better than it will be buried with me in the future." The old man seemed to really give up, and he took out an item from his bosom with some disinterest. Xu Chen took a closer look. A jade tablet with a very simple style.

Xu Chen took the jade token from the old man's hand, and was extremely curious. He swept it slightly with his mental strength, and his face immediately became extremely exciting: "This, this..."

Master Zhou waved his hand: "Since you are the disciple of those characters, how can I win the love of others, but your kid's aptitude is really enviable. Although you can't be the one who inherits the mantle, it can still be regarded as making the old man popular." continued."

"Is there any difficulty with Master Zhou?"

No matter how stupid Xu Chen was, he also felt a sense of twilight from Master Zhou's behavior.

Master Zhou waved Zhou Dafu out, and then said: "The grievances between the talisman masters let them know that it is a disaster rather than a blessing. Although you are not my successor, you are also a person who continues the incense. Let me tell you, if you regret it, there is still time to return the jade tablet in your hand."

Xu Chen heard that there seemed to be something hidden in it, and asked, "What's going on? If there is something that the boy can help, the boy will definitely not refuse!"

Master Zhou sighed: "This can be regarded as the old man who was young and frivolous. He valued fame and fortune too much, which eventually led to disaster!"

"Oh? What's going on?"

"The old man once went on an adventure in a ruins and obtained the jade tablet in your hand, and then his talisman skills have greatly improved, and he is respected as the master of inscriptions."

It is not unusual for an unknown person to turn around after a sudden encounter. Xu Chen himself did the same, and he didn't think it was a disaster.

"After the old man became famous, he was a little smug, until one day, something happened that completely changed the situation of the old man's life.

That was 30 years ago, the old man made a breakthrough in the inscription by researching the jade pendant, and reached the level of an inscription master in one fell swoop. At this time, the Inscription Masters and Talismans Guild held the Inscription Masters Competition once every ten years.

The old man immediately signed up for the competition with great ambitions. During the competition, the old man relied on the knowledge in the jade pendant to pass all the way and finally reached the top ten.

This is the time when the old man is proud of his spring breeze, and he never imagined that a conspiracy is approaching the old man..."

When Master Zhou said this, he also became a little angry.

After a pause, he continued: "After the competition, Ouyang Yi, the elder of the Inscription Guild, sent someone to inform the old man that he had performed well during the competition, and he wanted to accept the old man as a closed disciple."

When Xu Chen heard this, he probably understood that Ouyang Yi might have taken a fancy to the inscription skills displayed by Mr. Zhou, and he was intent on seizing it.

Sure enough, Master Zhou said angrily: "I, Zhou Hai, never imagined that as the elder of the Inscription Masters Guild, he would be such a despicable villain. After he deceived the old man, Ouyang Yi immediately took me down. The inheritance jade pendant was found on me.

Only later did I know that Ouyang Yi had been thinking about inheriting the jade pendant for a long time, but there was no clue, but he found a clue in the old man, so he naturally refused to miss it. "

"Since Master Zhou has passed on the jade pendant to him, then this one in my hand..."

"Haha! Ouyang Yi never imagined that my inheritance jade pendant would have two pieces, and the one he took away belongs to the middle part. Without the front part in your hand, it would never be untied!"

Xu Chen nodded clearly. Ouyang Yi's original goal was probably Zhou Lao's inherited jade pendant. In this way, Ouyang Yi must have found the same one in his hands.

"The old man was worried that Ouyang Yi's heart would not die, so he rushed here from Tianyuan City all the way, and lived in seclusion here to make a living by carving utensils. In the end, he discovered that the old man had been viciously restrained by him, and his talisman cultivation base was no longer there. I can't make the slightest effort, but the old man has also lost his ambition to compete for power, and he is lucky to be able to live a mediocre life!"

After Xu Chen heard this, he was also a little bit embarrassed. He also had an adventure, but Mr. Zhou had such an end!
"The jade pendant in your hand contains the old man's understanding of talismans and inscriptions all his life. Now the old man gives it to you, not because he wants you to seek revenge on that old man Ouyang Yi in the future, but because these old men have also learned something. Comprehension, I can't bear to cut off the inheritance."

Hearing that Daoxi would die in the morning, Xu Chen did not expect that Zhou Hai had devoted himself to studying the inscriptions for more than [-] years. Not only did he let go of his hatred, but he made rapid progress.
