She looked at the crowd and saw Wang Changsheng. Her face was happy, and she hurriedly replied, "I still need 20 spirit stones. Seventh Brother, if you have them, lend them to me first, I will return them to you later. If you don't have them, quickly go to the Virtuous Gathering House to find my father. If Eighth Sister continues to make trouble, who knows what will happen!"
"20 spirit stones?" Wang Changsheng touched his chin. He still had more than 30 spirit stones, and the relationship between Third Uncle and his father was very good. Lending 20 spirit stones to Eldest Sister was not a problem. Besides, this was related to the family's face, so he couldn't just stand by and watch. Thinking of this, Wang Changsheng moved his lips slightly and sent a message to Eldest Sister.
After a while, Wang Zhangxue smiled and said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, we will buy this jade hairpin." Then, she took out a cloth bag from her sleeve and threw it to the shopkeeper.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper's face was happy. He took the cloth bag, opened it, and swept it with his Divine Sense. He frowned slightly, "Fellow Daoist, we agreed on 60 spirit stones. You only have 40 spirit stones here, so you still need 20 spirit stones." He looked a little unhappy. Although he couldn't afford to offend these disciples of the cultivation families, he wouldn't reduce 20 spirit stones for nothing. Did they really think he was easy to bully?
"The remaining spirit stones are here." As soon as the shopkeeper finished speaking, Wang Changsheng walked out of the crowd and threw a cloth bag to the shopkeeper.
"Thank you for your patronage, Fellow Daoist. This is what you want." The shopkeeper took the cloth bag, opened it, and nodded with satisfaction. He handed a black wooden box to Wang Zhangyue.
"Hmph, do you see, we have spirit stones." Wang Zhangyue shook the black wooden box and showed off to the beautiful woman.
Seeing this, the beautiful woman stomped her feet, glared at Wang Changsheng, and left quickly.
When the onlookers saw this scene, they consciously dispersed.
"Seventh Brother, fortunately you came." Wang Zhangyue walked to Wang Changsheng and said with a smile.
"That's right, Seventh Brother. Fortunately, you came. Otherwise, who knows how much trouble this little girl would cause!" Wang Zhangxue pointed at Wang Zhangyue and said with a smile.
Wang Changsheng was about to say something when a man's hurried voice came from afar, "Changxue, Changxue, I'm back."
"Hmph, this idiot definitely won't help. Big sister, seventh brother, let's go." Hearing this voice, Wang Zhangyue frowned and pulled Wang Zhangxue away. From her words, it seemed she recognized this man.
"Eighth Sister, don't talk nonsense. Fellow Daoist Huang and our Wang Family are old friends. We can't neglect him. Besides, he has good intentions. It's just that he came late," Wang Zhangxue explained.
"I don't know what's so good about this idiot that you have to explain for him time and time again," Wang Zhangyue said indifferently.
Hearing that, Wang Zhangxue blushed a little. She subconsciously glanced at Wang Changsheng, and found that he was looking into the distance curiously. She was relieved.
Soon, a young Confucian scholar appeared in front of Wang Changsheng and the other two girls. He looked at Wang Zhangxue breathlessly with a faint smile on his face.
"Idiot, why were you gone for so long? Do you want to embarrass us on purpose?" Wang Zhangyue rolled her eyes at the young Confucian scholar and said with dissatisfaction.
"Eighth Sister, don't be like this."
Hearing Wang Zhangyue's words, the young Confucian scholar noticed the black wooden box in her hand. He was a little embarrassed and hurriedly explained, "I don't have so many spirit stones at the moment. I borrowed them from a friend. I'm sorry. Oh, this is …" In the end, the young Confucian scholar noticed Wang Changsheng and asked casually. At the same time, he glanced at Wang Changsheng with hostility.
Facing the young Confucian scholar's hostile gaze, Wang Changsheng was confused. This was the first time he had seen the young Confucian scholar, and he had never offended him.
"What are you thinking? Idiot, this is my seventh brother. "Before Wang Changsheng could say anything, Wang Zhangyue explained first.
"Oh, it's Wang Daoyou. I'm Huang Qiping." Hearing that, the hostility in the young Confucian scholar's eyes disappeared, and he said with a serious face.
Let's stop here.
Chapter 21
Grand Meeting
At this time, how could Immortal Wang not understand?! It seemed that this friend of the Huang family regarded him as a rival in love. [No pop-up window.]
"Wang Changsheng." Wang Changsheng cupped his hands and reported his name.
"Anyway, thank you for your help, Fellow Huang," Wang Zhangxue said to Huang Qiping with a smile.
"Our families have been friends for generations. It's only right." Seeing his sweetheart's smile, the smile on Huang Qiping's face deepened.
The reason why the Wang family was able to stand in the Yueyang Mountain Range for hundreds of years was not only because they had a Foundation Establishment cultivator, but also because they had allies. The Wang family and two other cultivator families formed an alliance to resist foreign enemies together. Under the fear of outsiders, they did not make a move against the Wang family. This was also the method that most cultivator families used to protect themselves. The Huang family that Huang Qiping belonged to was one of the Wang family's allies.
"Okay, okay, we've bought the hairpin. We still have things to do, so we'll leave first. Idiot, we'll meet again if fate wills it." After saying that, Wang Zhangyue pulled Wang Zhangxue and left, not giving Huang Qiping any face.
"I'm sorry, Fellow Huang. My eighth sister's temperament is like this." Wang Changsheng said apologetically.
"It's fine. You can leave first if you have things to do." Huang Qiping did not show any displeasure, as if he was used to Wang Zhangyue's behavior. He looked at Wang Zhangxue who was walking away.
In this regard, Wang Changsheng smiled bitterly, turned around and chased after them.
"Seventh brother, do you need to talk nonsense with that idiot? Just leave. Looking at that idiot makes me angry. "As soon as Wang Changsheng caught up with them, Wang Zhangyue said to him. Her words were full of anger towards Huang Qiping.
"Eighth sister, no matter what, the Huang family and our Wang family are old friends. You've gone too far." Wang Changsheng said with a slightly reproachful tone.
Wang Zhangyue did not answer. She snorted twice and pouted her small mouth, as if she did not want to listen.
When Immortal Wang saw this, he didn't care. He was just casually saying it. He didn't expect this Eighth Sister to listen to him. If she gave in so easily, then her reputation in the family wouldn't be so great.
"That's right, Zhangyue. Don't always call Fellow Taoist Huang a fool. If father hears it, you will have a hard time." Wang Zhangxue gently touched Wang Zhangyue's forehead and whispered angrily.
"I didn't say anything wrong. Sister, you saw how he looked when he saw you for the first time. Isn't he a fool?"
Hearing this, Wang Zhangxue's beautiful face flushed slightly.
"By the way, eldest sister, eighth sister, have you had lunch? Do you want to go back to the Virtuous House for lunch?" Seeing this, Wang Changsheng hurriedly changed the topic.
"I've eaten with my sister. Seventh brother, you go back first! I'll go shopping with my sister for a while. "After saying this, Wang Zhangyue took Wang Zhangxue and walked towards a clothing store.
In this regard, Wang Changsheng shook his head and walked in another direction. Wang Hu hurriedly followed.
Not long after, Wang Changsheng walked into the Virtuous House. At this time, there were no customers in the store. Wang Changsheng did not see the figure of his third uncle.
Wang Changsheng greeted the green-clothed servant who was in charge of the store and walked toward the rear courtyard.
At a stone table in the backyard, Wang Changsheng and several clansmen were having lunch. There were seven or eight dishes on the table. Wang Changsheng smelled a tempting aroma from far away.
"Third uncle, it smells so good!" Wang Changsheng did not stand on ceremony and sat down on an empty stone chair. Wang Hu, who was at the side, fetched a bowl of white rice and handed it to Wang Changsheng.
Wang Changsheng had been hungry for a long time. He took the rice and ate it.
"Eat slowly. After eating, come to the secret room on the second floor to find me. I have something to tell you." After saying this, Wang Changzhan wiped his mouth and got up to leave. Wang Hu beside him also sat down and ate heartily.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Wang Changsheng rubbed his bulging belly and slowly walked towards the secret room on the second floor.
As soon as Immortal Wang walked into the secret room, a faint fragrance assailed his nostrils. He saw Third Uncle Wang Mingzhan was currently drinking tea. In front of him was an ancient tea set, and the fragrance assailing his nostrils was coming from this place.
"Good tea." Immortal Wang sat down on the stool, picking up a cup of tea and drinking it in one gulp. Once this tea entered his stomach, a wave of coolness rushed to his head, and then an incomparably fragrant taste entered his mouth. Immortal Wang couldn't help but praise.
"This is Snow Sprout Tea. It costs ten spirit stones a jar. It has the effect of refreshing the mind." Wang Changzhan explained with a smile. He took a sip and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.
"Third uncle, you didn't look for me just to drink tea!" Wang Changsheng poured a cup of tea for himself and asked curiously.
"Of course not. After some time, it will be the market square's grand event. I hope that you can stay in the market square to make charms. It will save you the trouble of sending people back and forth. It will be a waste of time and it won't be safe."
"Grand event?" Wang Changsheng was slightly surprised.
"Well, this is a grand event held by the market square to attract people. Many markets hold this grand event every once in a while. It's just that the time is different. During the grand event, many cultivators will flood into the market square. This is a good opportunity for us to increase sales and make a name for ourselves." Wang Changzhan's expression was somewhat excited.
"No problem. You just have to remember to tell father." Wang Changsheng thought for a moment and agreed. This matter was very beneficial to him and the clan, so he had no reason to refuse. "Great! You can start making charms now.
I'll order people to bring you food. You can drink as much Snow Sprout Tea as you want. Of course, you can draw as many charms as you can. I won't force you. As usual, according to the value of the charms, the clan will give you a certain amount of spirit stones as compensation. I'll tell your father about it. Right, do you have any other requests? I'll try my best to satisfy you. "A smile appeared on Wang Changzhan's face as he asked.
"Well, give me some blank charms first. Also, temporarily close the second floor and don't let anyone disturb me." After thinking for a moment, Wang Changsheng opened his mouth and replied.
"There are a hundred blank charms in this storage bag. Use them first. If it's not enough, I'll give you this storage bag. I still have some matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you." Wang Changzhan threw a blue cloth bag to Wang Changsheng. He drank the tea in the teacup in one gulp and left the secret room.
Wang Changsheng wasn't in a hurry to make charms after Third Uncle left. He poured a cup of tea and slowly savored it.
After half an incense stick's worth of time, Wang Changsheng took out the charm-making tools and began to draw charms.
Wang Changsheng held a piece of earth attribute spirit stone in his left hand and a black charm brush in his right hand. He steadily drew on the charms in a neither fast nor slow manner.
Soon, a charm character that was suffused with yellow light appeared on the charms. There wasn't the slightest sign of magic power instability.
Wang Changsheng only had spirit roots of metal, fire and water attributes. But, he could draw charms of other attributes with the help of spirit stones of other attributes. He wasn't very proficient yet. But, he decided to give it a try for the sake of the upcoming grand meeting. Success would be a good thing, but failure would be an experience.
The Earth Awl Charm was composed of six earth attribute charm characters. The charm matrix was somewhat complicated and difficult to draw. But, Wang Changsheng's expression was calm at the moment. The entire process was smooth and flowing.
The twisted and complicated charm characters appeared one after another under the black charm brush. Every stroke was clear and steady. There wasn't any sense of delay.
Wang Changsheng turned his wrist and drew the last stroke after a short while.
The charm character flashed slightly. Then, it calmed down. A faint yellow light was flowing on the charm characters.
