Chapter 104: Who is the Fool?

  "Nonsense! If you don't understand, what's the point of me being here?"

  "Ascetic?" Upon hearing this, Wan'er was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and blinked her beautiful eyes repeatedly, asking "Are you a Taoist?"

  "Look for yourself." Tang Jing held the yellow banner and turned it over, with a few big words on the back: "Hanging pot to save the world, treating diseases and warding off disasters, the 88th generation successor of Longhu Mountain."

  "You say you're a descendant of Longhu Mountain? Haha, you're really interesting." Yu'er's smile grew even brighter. Wang Daoshi, who was standing beside her, also burst out laughing at the sight of the yellow banner. He thought to himself, "This generation's swindlers are indeed not ordinary, their audacity is impressive!" Longhu Mountain was a famous place for cultivation in ancient times, renowned for its talismanic techniques. However, with the end of the ancient era, Longhu Mountain had long since disappeared. In the thousands of years that have passed since then, there has been no mention of any legacy or inheritance from Longhu Mountain.

  "Are these your talismans?" Wan'er girl looked at the three talismans on the stall with great interest, picked up one of them and examined it carefully. Her eyebrows furrowed as she muttered to herself, "Strange, the symbols on these three talismans for dispelling cold, dispelling poison, and dispelling stasis seem a bit different."

  Master Wang also came over, took a glance at the three talismans, and saw through their secrets. He shook his head and said, "Miss Yuanyuan, why don't I take you somewhere else to have some fun?"

  Wan'er girl didn't respond to him, but instead continued to examine the talismans on her own. After a while, she asked, "How much do these three talismans sell for?"

  Upon hearing this, Master Wang felt a sense of absurdity and thought to himself that Miss Yuanyuan was also from a prestigious family with a noble background, yet she couldn't see through such a trick. He quickly said, "Miss Yuanyuan, the talismans on these three papers are not quite standard. If I'm guessing correctly, they should be residual talismans, which is a common trick used by swindlers to deceive ordinary people."

  "Hehe..." Yuanner smiled ambiguously and continued to ask about the price of the talisman, while Wang Daishi sighed inwardly and stopped trying to persuade her. He wondered if Miss Yuanner felt sorry for the young man because he looked pitiful, after all, he was too young and didn't know the dangers of the world. Too young!

  "A piece of 500 spiritual stones."

  Next to him, Wang Daoshi heard the three hundred spiritual stones and was so surprised that he almost jumped up. His small eyes, which were not originally big, were now wide open, and he shouted loudly, "Three hundred spiritual stones! You must have never seen money in your previous life! Why don't you go rob it!"

  Ling stones are the transaction currency of this era. An ordinary family can live a comfortable life with an expenditure of 50 ling stones per month. To put it into perspective, a cleansing talisman only costs one ling stone, and most everyday talismans are priced similarly. Only some combat talismans are considered expensive, but they won't exceed the price of 50 ling stones. The prices of healing talismans and combat talismans are roughly the same. Talismans like those for dispelling cold, poison, or blood stasis also cost around 50 ling stones. Even the renowned and priceless Sacred Light Talisman only costs 200 ling stones. No wonder Master Wang lost his composure - a price of 500 ling stones is indeed a bit outrageous.

  Wan'er, who was standing beside him, was also startled by the price. Her extraordinary eyesight allowed her to see the peculiarities of these three talismans, and she wanted to buy them back for further study, but she didn't expect them to be so expensive.

  "Little one, perhaps you don't know yet, but I am the Great Master of the Beacon Fire Symbol Tower." The Great Master's expression was stern and somewhat menacing. "Miss Yuanniang took pity on you and saved you, so don't be ungrateful."

  Tang Jing, reclining on the soft couch, raised an eyebrow and glanced at him with a gaze that seemed to regard him as nothing more than an ant. He didn't even bother to acknowledge him, then closed his eyes again and said indifferently, "Not one less, want it or not, don't bother asking."

  "Good you little cheat!" Master Wang didn't expect to reveal his own identity, and this kid actually dared to be so arrogant. He was about to scold him, but at this time, Yuanyu stopped him and said to Tang Qing, "If you are really a disciple of Longhu Mountain, then these three talismans must be worth the price. One talisman is 500 beads, three talismans are 1,500 beads. Take them well."

  Wan'er was about to take out the Ling Stone, and Master Wang called her a silly girl, but he only dared to scold her in secret and didn't dare say it to her face. Seeing Miss Wan'er directly taking out three Easy Cards worth 1,500 yuan, Master Wang hurriedly said, "Miss Wan'er, you mustn't be deceived! These street swindlers are all cunning and have endless tricks up their sleeves. If you buy from them, you'll definitely be cheated."

  "Master Wang, I have a plan." Yanyu handed over three Easy Cards and said softly, "Here! This is 1,500 Spirit Stones!"

  Tang Qing smiled and put away the three Easy Cards, glanced at Wang Da Shi, and sneered, "Look at you, so big and tall, but you don't even have this much discernment. You dare to call yourself a master? From now on, follow this little girl and learn from her."

  "You!" Master Wang was furious, but he couldn't afford to blow up at Miss Wan'er here.

  "Hehe...... You're really interesting." Yuanyu smiled and asked, "My name is Yuer, what's yours?"

  "I am Taoist Priest, Dragon Tiger Heavenly Master!"

  "Hehe... Dragon Tiger Heavenly Master."

  Yuer took the three talismans and smiled as she walked away. Master Wang glared at Tang Qing before hurrying to catch up with Yuer, saying "I'm ignorant, I really don't know why Miss Yuer wanted to buy these three talismans." Thinking of the 1,500 spirit stones, Master Wang felt a pang of pain, even though the spirit stones weren't his. "That little scoundrel is obviously a swindler! Miss Yuer, you've just arrived in Tianqi County and don't know the situation here. These swindlers are cunning and pretend to be pitiful to gain your sympathy..."

  "A cheat? I don't think so."

  Yi Wei'er smiled mysteriously, and for some reason, she no longer looked as innocent and pure as before. Her pretty face was filled with a strange smile, and even her tone of voice had become extremely eerie. She said leisurely, "Master Wang, I think he's right in what he said. You're the appraiser of the Symbol Tower, how could you not have this much discernment?" As she spoke, she handed over a Driving Cold Talisman to Master Wang, who was shocked and took it carefully to examine it.

  Yuer's strange and ancient voice came again, "Can you see the several kinds of law ink used in this cold-driving talisman?"

  Master Wang observed with his spiritual power, and his expression couldn't help but show surprise. "Wing Water Law Ink, Zi Qing Law Ink... Six kinds of law ink were used together, how could this be?" Master Wang was very clear that this kind of cold-driving talisman usually required twelve kinds of law ink to be successfully refined. He thought for a moment and said confidently, "Using only six kinds of law ink, although the symbol has been formed, it must be a defective talisman."

  "Hehe……" Yuer's mysterious smile took the driving cold talisman, and said very seriously, "Go back and poke your eyes blind, anyway, it's useless to keep them, you can't even see the profound techniques contained in it, really disappointing for Yuer."

  "Exquisite Hand Technique?" Master Wang's expression changed greatly in shock.

  "Six kinds of Fa Mo, the driving cold talisman... what is this if not the ingenuity of Wan Luo?..." Yi Yu'er raised her arm and placed the driving cold talisman under the sunlight. A hint of a sly smile floated in her eyes, "It's really... making Yu'er too excited, hehe..."

  "What's so special about Wan Luo? Miss Yuanyuan, you're saying... it can't be, right? How could he possibly understand the subtleties of Wan Luo?" As a connoisseur of the Symbol Tower, how could he not know the profound techniques of Wan Luo.

  "Huh? Did Yanyu say it was his refinement?" Yanyu smiled and said, "There's not even a hint of spiritual fluctuation on him... Heh heh, I don't know where he got these three talismans that contain the wonders of Wan Luo. Although he's a bit foolish, his luck is quite good, heh heh... Unfortunately, it's still not as good as my luck, heh heh..."

  "It's really too exciting, I didn't expect to have such a big harvest as soon as I arrived in Tianqi County, it's... it's making Yanyu can't help but laugh!" Yanyu stood on the street like this, laughing to herself, laughing so happily and recklessly, that passersby nearby couldn't help but frown, does this beautiful girl with blue long hair have a problem?

  "Miss Wan'er, you..." For some reason, upon hearing Miss Wan'er's laughter, Master Wang was shocked and lost his composure. He felt that his spiritual energy was trembling uncontrollably, and as her laughter grew louder, Master Wang's spiritual energy trembled even more violently. This caused him to break out in a cold sweat. He never could have imagined that Miss Wan'er's spiritual energy would be so terrifying.

  "Hmm... Yanyu is really too excited, Master Wang shouldn't mind. " After laughing, Yanyu left by herself, but suddenly seemed to realize something and turned around, her beautiful eyes blinking as she said softly, "Don't tell others about this, okay?"

  Looking into those deep blue eyes, at this moment, Wang Da Shi only felt that his soul was as if grasped by something, suddenly tightening, his heart racing with fear, he hastily bowed his head and respectfully nodded in response.

  "Hehe——" Yu'er didn't say anything else and left with a smile.

  Yellow flag, stall.

  Tang Qing lay on the soft chair, stroking his chin, gazing in the direction where Yuer had left, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "This little girl's spirit is quite strong, she actually has such a large spiritual power, hmm... however..." As he spoke, a sly smile spread across his mouth. "However, she's just too stupid, her brain isn't quite normal either. Does she think that Master's Wan Luo's mystery can be easily snooped on?"

  He stood up, put the three easy cards into his pocket, and muttered, "Today's fishing results are not bad, continue tomorrow."

  At this time, an old man walked over. As he approached, he looked around cautiously, as if he was doing something sneaky, poking his head out and asking, "Little Daoist, can you really catch ghosts?"

  "Oh?" Tang Jing stared at the old man, nodded lightly and said, "Of course."

  "My son is possessed by a ghost, can you drive it out without harming him?"
