Chapter 219 Drawing talismans? I am the most professional! (Subscribe)

Yu Linglong didn't buy it at all and immediately asked the paper man to pin the incense figurine to the ground and beat it up.

A quarter of an hour later, the incense man became completely obedient. He knelt on the ground in a proper manner, put his hands on his knees, and said with a wry smile on his face:
"My Immortal, hiss~ If you have something to discuss, we can talk about it. Don't be so angry, hiss~!"

Yu Linglong snorted coldly and said, "I have nothing to discuss with you. As a city god, you have made this wedding dress city miserable and full of disasters. How dare you talk to me?"

She had not forgotten the tragedy in Wedding Dress City, nor had she forgotten how this guy had swindled money from them and the people yesterday.

You should know that the City God of a city is not only in charge of local floods, droughts, epidemics, the underworld, etc., but he is also the patron saint of the land.

Now that Wedding Dress City has become half a ghost town, this incense-mongering villain is still wantonly collecting money for incense, candles, and talisman paper?
Does he deserve respect?
Pooh!
Yu Linglong showed a hint of disdain at the corner of her mouth, and she almost wanted to beat this guy up again.

The incense man was about to say something but stopped himself. He gritted his teeth and said, "My Immortal, you are wronging me. It was not me who made this Wedding Clothes City into such a mess. It was Ye Xian!"

"Ye Xian, who is that?"

A hint of doubt flashed across Yu Linglong's brows.

The name sounds like someone from the Ye Mansion, but according to the information sent by Lin Mo, isn’t the Jindan cultivator in the Ye Mansion called Ye Junliang?
How come another Ye Xian suddenly appeared?
The incense man had a gloomy face and said, "Ye Xian, the ancestor of the Ye family."

Isn’t the ancestor of the Ye family Ye Junliang?

The more Yu Linglong listened, the more confused she became. This was completely inconsistent with the information Lin Mo had sent her.

"Ye Xian is the only cultivator in the Ye family with the surname Ye. Although he was not the one who caused the tragedy, he was the one who created the bride in the wedding dress, and he was also responsible for the half-ghost town."

The incense man said in a cold tone: "Even the extermination of the Ye family was a tragedy caused by him personally!"

Hearing this, Yu Linglong suddenly felt a chill spreading rapidly from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

The Ye family was wiped out, the ghost town...

What is this little incense man saying?
Isn't there only one descendant left in the Ye family? How did they get wiped out?

Who is the only little boy mentioned in Lin Mofei's letter?

……

Yu Linglong narrowed her eyes slightly, her heart beating slightly, vaguely aware that this matter was unusual.

Next, she heard a completely different version of the story from the incense man.

Qin did sell herself to bury her father before she died.

But she did not marry the third young master of the Ye family, but married the ancestor of the Ye family as a concubine of who knows how many rooms.

Ye Xian is not some wandering cultivator who has returned home from a long journey. He has been dominating and bullying in Wedding Dress City for many years.

He could be said to be the biggest bully in the area, and even the government officials dared not provoke him.

The Wedding Dress City was named after him.

The reason is very simple. He is best at the art of dual cultivation. Over the past hundred years, he has married at least eighty concubines, if not a hundred.

And this daughter of the Qin family was also forced to marry into the mansion as a concubine.

The only difference between her and other ordinary concubines is that Qin's daughter was born with an extremely yin body, which made her one of the best cauldrons for dual cultivation, so he valued Qin's daughter very much.

After marrying her into his mansion, he even spent a large amount of money to train her.

If nothing unexpected happens, perhaps thirty or fifty years later, the Qin girl might even become Ye Xian's true "Taoist companion" on the path of Taoism, practicing Taoism with Ye Xian and forming the golden elixir together.

But the problem was caused by a new groom in the Ye Mansion.

The identity of this groom is actually the senior brother of Qin's daughter's childhood sweetheart. They were all brought to Wedding Dress City by Qin's daughter's father.

However, Qin's father met with an accident, and this childhood friend also disappeared, and the entire troupe was disbanded.

Out of desperation, the Qin girl, who was in a foreign land, chose to sell herself to bury her father.

Unexpectedly, a few years later, her childhood sweetheart became a groom and brought her a shocking news.

It turned out that her biological father was actually killed by her husband, Ye Xian, the ancestor of the Ye family, who had always doted on her, through coercion and frame-up.

When she learned about this, she was so heartbroken that the first thing she wanted to do was to take her son and escape from the Ye Mansion.

But in the end the escape plan failed as he was discovered in advance by Ye Xian and put under house arrest.

The two were entangled for several years, and it finally ended with Qin's daughter committing suicide in despair.

If that were all, it would be nothing more than a tragedy at most.

Unfortunately, Ye Xian did not want to see the excellent Taoist partner he had found with great difficulty die, so he found an evil method from somewhere and collected the soul of the Qin girl, intending to refine it into a ghost that he could control, so as to break through the golden elixir.

As for the final result, it can be said to be a success or a failure.

"Did it succeed or fail? Explain it clearly!"

Yu Linglong asked.

The incense man laughed and said:

"Ye Xian succeeded in reaching the Golden Core stage, but during the promotion process, he was devoured by the resentful woman of the Qin family, and his physical body was destroyed."

"He had no choice but to use evil methods to occupy the body of his offspring, but this method is not a long-term solution after all."

"His offspring are like consumables. He has used them up one by one. Now there are only two left. No, one and a half."

Yu Linglong's eyelids twitched, and she suddenly remembered what Lin Mo said in Fei Xin about the only child in the Ye family:

"So, Ye Junliang is Ye Xian, and the only child of the Ye family is the last child born to him and Qin's daughter!?"

The incense man said without comment:
"After the Qin family's resentful woman broke free from his restraints, she gathered the evil spirits of the mass grave and completely turned into a ghost. She was originally a ghost transformed from an extremely yin body, so her strength increased very quickly."

"In just three years, Wedding Dress City has been turned into a half-ghost town." At this point, he said angrily:
"But the people of Jiayi City don't take me, the City God, seriously at all. When something goes wrong, they actually think of asking for help from the culprit!"

"It's useless to beg him. Now he is being targeted by the Qin family's resentful woman, and he doesn't even dare to take a step out of the Ye Mansion..."

He muttered a lot.

In short, it was because the people in the city did not burn enough incense to worship him, which led to his weak strength.

Not to mention fighting against the resentful woman, if it weren't for the special features of the City God Temple, even he wouldn't be able to hold on for so long.

The incense, candles and red talisman paper he sold were all items for warding off evil spirits that he made using his merits and vows.

The reason why he sold it at a high price was not because he was really greedy for money, but because all of this was in order to gather the incense money to accumulate merit and vows.

The incense ash in Yu Linglong's mouth is also one of the physical objects condensed from merits and vows. It can be used to make guiding incense and can also be used to draw talismans. It is an extremely scarce material for drawing talismans.

"If everyone believed me at the beginning and didn't believe that damn Ye Xian, a mere resentful woman, wouldn't I, the great City God, be able to deal with her?"

As he spoke, he stood up excitedly, drooling.

"Um!?"

Yu Linglong glared, and the arrogance of the incense man disappeared immediately. He knelt down again and forced a smile on his face:
"My Lord, I really can't give you these incense ashes. If we wait until the full moon night and the resentful woman and Ye Xian start a decisive battle, I will have to rely on these incense ashes to protect the people in Wedding Clothes City..."

Yu Linglong frowned, even though she really disliked this despicable little man.

But in a sense, he was indeed considering the people of Wedding Dress City.

"As you said, I can just kill both Yuan Nu and Ye Xian!"

Yu Linglong said very confidently.

His army of paper figures should have no problem dealing with two useless golden elixirs.

"Humph, you underestimate Ye Xian too much, and you also underestimate the resentful woman too much."

The incense man didn't think so, but knelt down and said:

"I've seen your paper figurine. It's amazing that it can surpass its level and win. However, the resentful woman has gathered countless evil spirits in one body. When the full moon night comes, she may be promoted to the strongest green ghost and become the ghost king who truly rules over a region!"

"As for Ye Xian, haha, this guy is no simple person either. Even though his golden elixir is a bit weak, the wealth he has accumulated over the past hundred years is not to be underestimated. It is much more glorious than my broken City God Temple!"

His tone was a little sour, but he was speaking the truth.

Being able to build an array formation with pure gold and give away magical tools at will is enough to show how wealthy Ye Xian is.

"You might be able to deal with one, but both at the same time?"

The incense man shook his head and was not very optimistic about the other party.

"You know nothing! I'm not afraid even if you come at me together!"

Yu Linglong was still very confident and added: "Besides, I didn't come here alone."

"Those who are in the middle stage of foundation building?"

The incense villain didn't regard Lin Mo and the others as human beings at all.

It’s okay to deal with some little ghosts, but how can they, who are in the middle stage of foundation building, participate in the battle between Jindan stage?

Just before Yu Linglong was about to get angry again, the incense man immediately spoke:

"Also, I don't really care about the war between you. What I care about now is how to protect the people of the city before the final war comes!"

His expression was extremely serious, without any of the jokes he had shown before.

"Compared to you who are extraordinary, these common people are the ones who need these incense ashes the most."

Yu Linglong was silent. It was rare that she didn't get angry with the incense man. Finally, she muttered:
"These may not be useful in the end..."

The incense man subconsciously wanted to refute, but when he saw several paper men take a step forward, he quickly shrank his neck and weakened his tone:

"Well, Immortal? Can you let me go? If not, take some incense ash, but no more than half a bowl, otherwise you'd better kill me!"

Yu Linglong glanced at him and said,
"Do you think I'm stupid? As long as this city doesn't become a ghost town, you will be the city god of this city."

"If I kill you, I will be the first one to be attacked!"

The incense man rubbed his hands together and once again showed a sly smile on his face:
"Then just let me go, Immortal. Anyway, Immortal has great magical powers. It's no big deal for him to deal with a local ghost king and a fake golden elixir!"

Yu Linglong ignored him and fell into deep thought.

"Immortal?"

The incense figurine looked at her curiously.

After a moment, Yu Linglong raised her head and said:

"You still have to give me all your incense ashes."

"Ah? I want more, but..."

"Don't talk nonsense, this is for your own good. The manufacturing process of your red talisman paper and incense candles is too poor!"

Yu Linglong showed a trace of disdain on her face and said:

"I am the most professional in drawing talismans to ward off evil spirits!"

Incense Man: "..."
