Chapter 23 Mother's Request

"Is this Five Thunder Talisman blessed?" someone asked.

Huibin subconsciously clenched the talisman paper.

Taoist Master Yihong nodded. "Yes, but it's not very effective anymore. I guess it won't work in a month or two. That's why I thought some master gave it to him a year or two ago."

Huibin breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little disappointed.

"The consecrated ritual implements can only be preserved for one or two years?" someone else asked.

Taoist Master Yihong pointed at him and said, "Human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant. One or two years is already very good. Maybe peach wood, jujube wood, bronze, jade and the like can be preserved longer, but consecrating them is more time-consuming and laborious, which will delay your practice."

The man lowered his head in shame and dared not ask any more questions.

But even so, many people have become active.

Although the effect of this amulet can only last for one or two months, it does not mean that the young man is not powerful, because the young man just drew the amulet casually and gave the amulet paper to Huibin.

If he consecrates it seriously, wouldn't it be easy for the amulet to maintain its effect for one or two years?
Taoist Master Yihong was an old and experienced man. He knew what everyone was thinking at a glance. For a moment, he regretted that he had said too much and praised the young man too much.

"You've been lonely for too long." Taoist Master Yihong sighed, then instructed, "This young man is close to nature and has advanced spiritual attainments despite his youth. He's a natural talent for cultivating the Dao. If you find him, be sure to notify me immediately."

"Of course."

"sure."

"A young man like this might be the son of a famous family."

"Seeing how skilled he is in drawing the Five Thunder Talisman, perhaps he's a Taoist priest ordained at Longhu Tianshan."

"If he comes to Yuanfa Palace again next time, we will definitely call you first."

Although some people thought of checking the surveillance, they quickly gave up the idea.

There was no other reason. Even if they knew what the other person looked like through surveillance, they did not have the manpower, material resources and information resources to continue tracking him down. Should they tell the security guard that this person could consecrate magical instruments and was a natural-born cultivator, and ask him to help find him?

At this point, even religious people should talk about traditional culture and believe in science. They should not spread feudal superstitions, okay!

"That's good." Taoist Master Yihong chuckled, "Now that we've had tea and told stories, let's go to the Sutra Library and read some books."

"Good good!"

"Please!"

……

Of course, Gu Zhao didn't know what was happening in Yuanfa Palace, and he didn't know that the ineffective Five Thunder Talisman he had left in the cinnabar yellow paper was actually used as a talisman.

After he spoke with Zhang Hang on the phone, he was about to cross into another world to continue his cultivation when he received another call from his mother.

"Son! Have you found a job?"

"No."

"Are you still looking?"

"I can't find it anymore."

"Great!" A cheer came from the other end of the phone.

Gu Zhao: ???
"Come back to Chengdu with me this weekend." Gu Zhao's mother Li Man is a decisive person.

Gu Zhao couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything wrong with grandpa and grandma?"

"No." Li Man replied, "The son of one of my best friends is getting married, and she invited me to attend the wedding." "Won't my dad go with you?" Gu Zhao asked subconsciously.

"Your dad wants to go, so why should I take you with me?" Li Man snorted, "Isn't it good for us to just be alone?"

Gu Zhao, “…”

"Dress yourself up nicely and try to outshine the groom!" Li Man ordered. "You're always showing off in front of me that you're tall, fair, handsome, and married to a beautiful, rich, and beautiful woman. She's so beautiful!"

"That's your best friend..."

"Illegible bestie! My son is much better than her son. He's taller, whiter, and more handsome than her son, but..."

Li Man couldn't help but sigh when she said this. "What kind of Taoism are you practicing all day? If I hadn't found normal study materials in your computer, I would have thought you were affected by those summers in Chengdu."

Gu Zhao was stunned. "You actually went through my computer? How did you know my password?"

"79531, gold, wood, water, fire, earth, what's so difficult about that?" Li Man said indifferently.

Gu Zhao: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Li Man ignored Gu Zhao's embarrassment and said to herself, "Oh, by the way, aren't there those girlfriend-for-hire websites online? Why don't you take some time these two days to interview a few and pick the one with outstanding looks to take home. If you're shy, I can help you choose."

"If you help me choose, I won't go!" Gu Zhao said angrily.

"Then you choose it yourself?" Li Man asked.

"How about I seduce the bride at the wedding without my girlfriend?" Gu Zhao said fiercely.

"Hiss—" Li Man was also surprised, "I seem to have seen similar questions in your study materials!"

Gu Zhao felt his face smoking and his hands shaking, "Did you read it all?"

"I haven't finished reading it yet." Li Man said honestly, "There's too much."

At this point, Li Man's joke concealed a hint of worry. "I see in your study materials that there are more 2D questions than 3D ones. You can't be like those fat otakus in Yinggao Country!"

Gu Zhao took a deep breath and said honestly, "Mom, I'm normal. I will definitely find you a normal daughter-in-law."

"That's good. I told you that your grandfather, your father, also got married normally, and your family doesn't ban this kind of thing!" Li Man also breathed a sigh of relief, and then did not forget to remind him, "Remember to hurry up, I can't wait to go shopping and get a manicure with my daughter-in-law."

……

After hanging up the phone, Gu Zhao couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

I feel that talking to my mother on the phone is more exciting than fighting the ghosts a few days ago.

"No wonder my dad is so controlled." Gu Zhao sighed, "It's not easy to live off your parents these days!"

With a sigh, Gu Zhao looked at the time, then went to the tea restaurant downstairs to cut a pound of braised beef and packed a braised pork elbow.

Gu Zhao discovered that perhaps because of the lack of oil and water for many years, He Laozhang's family and Baihu had relatively heavy tastes and preferred northern-style meat. Five-spice roast chicken was more popular than boiled chicken.

Perhaps influenced by the taste of his mother's hometown, Gu Zhaoze has a special liking for Sichuan and Hunan cuisine.

Gu Zhao traveled through another world and walked out of the forest carrying two portions of food. He saw the embroiderer standing next to a big tree at the entrance of the village, standing on tiptoe from time to time and looking in his direction.

A snow-white fox lay on her shoulder, its tail swinging and lifting the girl's hair, and it yawned boredly.

The sun was setting behind the village, casting thousands of golden rays of light. The rays shone through the smoke curling from the scattered houses in the village and the gaps between the branches and leaves of the nearby trees, and shrouded the girl in an orange halo, like a warm and colorful two-dimensional painting.
