Chapter 116: Making Incense and Drawing Talismans
Night, Luohe City.
After Princess Qingyuan came back from Qianyuan Mountain, she carefully explained the information she had obtained to King Li.
After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, King Li was immediately overjoyed. It seemed as if the invisible mountain that had been weighing on his heart had dissipated!
"Okay! You've done a great job. I will immediately order people to collect what you need and bring it directly to you when the time comes!"
"Thank you for the compliment, Father!"
Upon hearing King Li's words, Princess Qingyuan smiled and thanked her. If she had the strong support of her father, she would soon have the opportunity to let the senior take action.
"This matter is kept confidential and must not be leaked. Huh, I didn't expect that this person is not the one who suppresses the evil forces..."
As Prince Li's somewhat moody voice gradually disappeared, Princess Qingyuan stood up straight.
"Princess Princess, have you really met that senior?"
Then a female voice came from behind her, her tone full of curiosity.
"I haven't seen it, it's just a puppet left by the other party on the mountain."
Upon hearing the other party's voice, Princess Qingyuan's expression became much gentler, she turned around and shook her head and said.
"As expected of a senior expert, his behavior is really mysterious!"
"Haha, only a little girl like you can say that!"
Princess Qingyuan walked up to the other party and nodded her forehead with a smile.
"However, those who can become saints in troubled times must be those who have great courage and perseverance to shoulder the destiny!"
"It is truly an honor for us to be in contact with such a person. If we can get the other person's promise, then you and I will be equivalent to having a gold medal to avoid death!"
Princess Qingyuan's eyes were deep, and her expression revealed a melancholy that was completely different from her age.
When she was talking to King Li just now, she deliberately concealed something. For example, Lin Feng asked her to provide ten special items to get a chance to take action.
But the number of things she relayed to King Li turned into twenty... Naturally, some of her thoughts were mixed in among them.
In this troubled world, women like her seem to have a high status and enjoy all the glory and wealth, but in essence they are still other people's puppets.
If you want to control your own destiny, you must either be strong enough or find a safe enough way.
At the same time, Li Yanbing was also communicating with Li Changge, the head of the Suppression Division.
"The inheritance of the strange blacksmith? Is it what that senior needs?"
"yes!"
"There is indeed this inheritance in the Zhengui Division. I will send someone to deliver it tomorrow."
Li Changge is now more and more satisfied with his niece, and even has vague plans to elect her as the next generation head of the family.
"Is there anything else you need?"
After saying this, Li Changge continued to speak to Li Yanbing.
"Uncle, Princess Qingyuan, the daughter of King Li, also paid a visit to the senior tonight. She has what the senior needs in her hands. I was afraid that if I blocked him without authorization, I would offend the senior, so I took her with me. …”
Li Yanbing took a deep breath and told the other party what he was most worried about.
"You did nothing wrong in this matter. Now that the senior has achieved the status of Semi-Saint, it will definitely attract the attention of many parties, so it is better to avoid it than to block it, so as not to become the target of public criticism!"
"But that senior is still thinking about his old relationship. In this case, you should be careful and remember that in today's troubled times, the one with the strongest troops and horses is the king!"
"This Liuzhou rebellion has made everyone in the world see the reality of the imperial court..."
Next, Li Changge told Li Yanbing some secrets about the capital, which made Li Yanbing feel even more anxious.
"Tomorrow the children of the family will come together. Then you can send them as you wish. Don't treat them equally just because they are of the same clan!"
"Yes, niece understands!"
Li Yanbing bowed deeply to the front. The worries and doubts in her heart gradually turned into a firmer belief after this conversation!
——————
The next day, Lin Feng buried the body that Li Erniu and the others had brought over and started working.
"Sasha~"
All kinds of weird-looking medicinal materials were cleaned, cut into pieces, and dried in a unified manner by him.
There are also some finished medicinal materials that he puts on a stone mill and slowly grinds them into fine powder, and then puts them into different jars by category.
The old lame man next to him also rolled up his sleeves to help, but what he did was clean the collected medicinal materials.
"Hey, I remember when I was young, I would grind the mill every day. Sorghum, millet, millet, etc. had to be ground out before we could eat them!"
Lin Feng slowly turned the small millstone and said casually: "If there are soybeans, they can be ground to make tofu and soy milk."
"Tofu is good, tofu is good!"
"I haven't eaten tofu in years, especially tender tofu curds with some soy sauce and chopped green onions. Drink it in one gulp. Wow, the taste is so delicious~"
The old lame man was obviously more interested in the food. He was shaking his head while washing the medicinal materials.
"You can find food in the city. I remember there was a stall selling it."
Finally, Lin Feng ground all the medicinal materials in his hand into powder, and then used a small broom to sweep all the powder off the millstone.
The paper assassins he arranged to go out last night visited five strongholds in the Xiang Temple and finally harvested a large amount of ready-made medicinal materials.
"With this amount, you can make thousands of incense sticks. Tsk tsk. Sure enough, a man will not be rich without windfall, and a horse will not be fat without night grass!"
"What the ancestors said is true!"
After taking the jar in his hand and putting it away in the wooden house, Lin Feng would start making incense at night.
"By the way, when did you learn to make incense? This craft is not easy to learn. I have heard people say that this is a skill that requires concentration!"
When Lin Feng came out of the house, the old lame man who had just washed the herbs couldn't help asking Lin Feng.
"A kind-hearted person taught me!"
Lin Feng was too lazy to talk to him about this, and walked over to put the freshly washed herbs in the dustpan to dry.
These herbs were collected by the wooden man. Lin Feng had been leaving them alone before, and today was the right time to pick them up at once.
"Kind-hearted people? Are there still kind-hearted people these days?"
The old lame man was confused by what Lin Feng said, but it didn't matter to him. He shook his head and stopped asking.
After processing the herbs, Lin Feng directly moved a small stool and sat down in the yard.
Then he took out the booklet given to him by the old Taoist priest and read it carefully, and from time to time he picked up a piece of wooden stick to draw on the ground.
The old lame man's face turned green instantly when he noticed the booklet in Lin Feng's hand!
Then he asked Lin Feng nervously: "This, this thing was also given to you by a kind person?"
"Not a kind person, he owed me first!"
Lin Feng looked up at him, and was quite surprised by the old guy's reaction.
"Oh, so that's it! It's like this!"
The old cripple had a somewhat embarrassed smile on his face, but he cursed the old Taoist priest in his heart.
That old cow nose dared to compete with him for the successor! This matter can be tolerated by uncle, but aunt can't!
"I have something to go to the city in the afternoon, so I have to trouble you to guard this cemetery!"
"No problem!"
After hearing Lin Feng's agreement, the old cripple picked up his crutches and walked towards Luohe City. He couldn't help but go to settle accounts with the old cow nose!
