"Miss, the guest is here."
Seeing that Elder Lingxin was still focused on engraving the talisman in her hand, the old servant in blue coughed softly and said respectfully.
The woman paused slightly, put down the light gray jade talisman in her hand, and nodded to the old servant. "Thank you for your hard work."
"This is what I should do."
The old servant bowed respectfully, then turned and left. The woman glanced at Shen Hou with her sparkling eyes and gently nodded her head.
"You can call me Elder Lingxin. I'm very busy now, so let's make it short. On this trip to the Western Wilderness, the long journey is secondary. The most important thing is that it is extremely dangerous, with wild beasts running amok. You only have the cultivation of the Spirit spring stage, if you enter rashly, you may lose your life at any time. Are you prepared? "
Shen Hou's simple and honest forehead overflowed with a drop of sweat again. He could not help but smile awkwardly. "The person going to the Western Wilderness is not me."
"Oh?" Elder Lingxin's beautiful eyes revealed a trace of surprise. Her gaze swept over Chu Chen, and she frowned slightly. "Could it be him? Then he can go back. "
"Why?" Chu Chen shrugged helplessly. After not seeing her for so long, Elder Lingxin's temper was still the same. She was not polite to people at all.
"The Western Wilderness is not suitable for you." Elder Lingxin did not raise her head, and her attention once again turned to the talisman in her hand. "Your legs are inconvenient, and you can't walk. You'll only be a burden in the team. Even if you're willing to pay double the travel expenses, I won't agree to let you go. In such a dangerous place, the slightest carelessness may lead to a disaster. At that time, everyone can't even take care of themselves, and will be distracted to take care of you. It's very likely that you'll implicate the whole team. "
"Although my legs are inconvenient, I don't need anyone to take care of me." Chu Chen's mouth twitched slightly.
Lingxin's face turned cold, and a trace of impatience flashed across her eyes.
"It's easy for you to say. If you encounter danger, you can't even escape. At that time, do you want us to leave you behind? I can't do that. If you pass the interview, I have to be responsible for you. So there's no need to say anything more. You can go back. "
"I can go, but I want to remind you of something before I go." Chu Chen shrugged his shoulders.
Lingxin did not even bother to ask this time, and directly waved her hand, as if she did not want to talk to him.
The corners of Chu Chen's mouth curled up slightly as he said in a calm voice, "Your Desolation Talisman was inscribed incorrectly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Chen gave Shen Hou a look. Shen Hou immediately understood what he meant. With a chuckle, he pushed the wheelchair and walked out.
"Wait …" Sure enough, before Shen Hou could push the wheelchair a few steps, Lingxin's voice came from behind, "Little brother in the wheelchair, do you know Medicinal Charms?"
Shen Hou's smile slowly widened, and he pushed Chu Chen back. He saw Chu Chen's indifferent face. "You've seen my information, so you should know where I come from."
Lingxin was stunned for a moment before she nodded her head gently. Her eyes were filled with doubt as she said, "I know that you're from the Medicine Palace Earth Court, but I didn't know that you knew how to refine Medicine Talismans."
"It seems that Elder Lingxin doesn't know enough about the Medicine Palace."
Chu Chen's expression became more and more calm. His eyes were calm, and revealed a sense of wisdom. "Even in the Earth Courtyard, once we've studied for a certain period of time, every disciple will begin to learn how to make Medicine Talismans. Not only do I know Medicine Talismans, but I'm also very proficient in it. "
"Oh?"
Hearing Chu Chen's words, which sounded like self-praise, Elder Lingxin raised her eyebrows. "Then tell me, what's wrong with my Medicine Talisman?"
"First of all, this Medicine Talisman can only be considered as a low-level Medicine Talisman."
Chu Chen spoke with confidence. "The Western Wilderness is different from the Eastern Wilderness. Deserts are everywhere, so the air contains a large amount of Desolate Qi formed by Fire Qi, Earth Qi, and Death Qi. This Qi originated from ancient times. If people don't live there for a long time, people from other places will not be able to adapt to this Desolate Qi. They might even be poisoned and fall sick."
"The Medicine Talisman is made to resist this Desolate Qi. First of all, there's no problem with the material of your Medicine Talisman. It's the precious Grey Crystal Chalcedony, which can be said to be the best material for Medicine Talismans. However, the formation inscribed on it is wrong. There are three wrong lines. "
Chu Chen pointed at the crisscrossing lines on the Medicine Talisman.
"They're located at the Kanli, Xuangen, and Guqian positions of the Talisman. These three lines are the main lines of the formation. If you make the Medicine Talisman according to your method, not only will it not be able to get rid of the Desolate Qi, it will even cause the Desolate Qi to explode. "
Lingxin was stunned for a moment. Her eyes carefully looked at the Medicine Talisman again, and she suddenly understood.
In fact, she had been carving this Medicine Talisman for a while. She always felt that she was wrong, but she didn't know where she was wrong. Now that Chu Chen reminded her, she immediately understood. Her expression couldn't help but become a little gloomy.
"This Grey Crystal Chalcedony is the best material among Medicine Talisman weapons. It's expensive and very rare. If it's ruined, it'll be a pity. Give it to me." Chu Chen secretly shook his head and looked at Lingxin calmly.
"What do you want this for?" Lingxin frowned. "It's already ruined. It's useless to give it to you."
"Just give it to me." Chu Chen's voice revealed an unquestionable decisiveness. Lingxin sighed and waved her hand. The Jade Talisman in her hand turned into a grey light and flew into Chu Chen's hand.
Chu Chen picked up the Jade Talisman without even looking at it. His right hand shook slightly and took out a black carving knife from his Storage Ring. With a whoosh, he started carving on the Jade Talisman.
Looking at his posture, it didn't seem like he was carving a formation. Instead, it looked like he was cutting vegetables. His actions were rough and simple. He directly changed the formation beyond recognition.
Lingxin, who saw this scene, frowned again. "Although this brat has some knowledge, he's too reckless." One had to know that making a Medicine Talisman was a delicate job. Every line of the formation had to be extremely precise. Even the slightest deviation could cause the entire formation to be destroyed.
Therefore, any Medicine Master with some common sense would be extremely careful and cautious when carving a Medicine Talisman.
Some people even burned incense and bathed in it to make sure that their minds were empty and their minds were free of distracting thoughts. Who would be like this brat, cutting this Medicine Talisman like it was cabbage?
But then again, since this Medicine Talisman was ruined, let him be.
