Chapter 50 The Old General on the Stage (Additional Update for the "Pharmacist Treasure Mirror" Alliance)

The mountainous area around Qingxiao Lake has become a swamp that blocks out the sun.

If you want to leave, there are two ways to go, one north and one west.

To report to Zixiao Sect as soon as possible, the west is the closest.

In order to leave as soon as possible, Qin Tao chose to go through the mountains in the west.

Lei Jun watched the other party choose the road mentioned in the middle and lower fortune, without saying much.

According to the description of this fortune, there is more than one crisis.

Going west, the middle and lower fortune, bad luck.

Going north, the worst fortune, very bad luck.

Staying in the same place and getting the middle fortune is not that great, but it is pretty good to avoid the first two big pits.

Let's see what Qin Tao, who is eager to run away, can find out.

Lu Zhaoqing suddenly looked hesitant: "Qingxiao Lake just re-set up the talisman array last year. I personally inspected it a few days ago. Everything was fine. Why did something suddenly happen today? Did someone deliberately destroy it?"

Luo Haoran frowned: "I'm afraid... it's true! Uncle Lu, Junior Brother Lei, follow me."

He took Lei Jun and Lu Zhaoqing to check several locations. Everyone found that the talisman array showed signs of being destroyed by humans.

"Looking at the traces, it was done by a martial arts practitioner." Luo Haoran said in a deep voice.

Lu Zhaoqing recognized it: "It looks like the family heirloom of the Dong family in the lower reaches of the Qinglan River!"

The Qinglan River is an important water system flowing through the Yunxiao Mountains. It is closely related to Qingxiao Lake. The lower reaches are east of the Yunxiao Mountains.

The Dong family is a local noble family that has passed down martial arts.

Physical martial arts is another path of practice different from Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. As the name suggests, the practice of physical martial arts focuses all energy on one's own flesh and blood, thereby gaining unimaginable explosive power and destructive power.

The so-called warrior, within a short distance, can rival a country.

However, Lei Jun and others are not concerned about the Dong family.

For the Zixiao Sect, the Dong family may be a worthy opponent, but it is not enough for the Tianshi Mansion.

Lei Jun and others noticed that the rumored Dong family and Jiangzhou Lin family, one of the few famous families in the Tang Dynasty, have a close relationship.

The five surnames and seven aristocrats in the Tang Dynasty, the seven famous families, such as the Fang family in Jingxiang and the Chu family in Suzhou, have relatively good relations with the Tianshi Mansion.

But there are also bad ones.

Jiangzhou Lin family and Xinzhou Longhushan Tianshi Mansion are a pair of enemies in the Tang Dynasty.

The reason is simple, they are too close to each other, and both families make each other feel unable to sleep.

Over the years, the two sides have been in constant conflict, and even suffered casualties, so the grievances have become deeper and deeper, and a major dispute broke out a few years ago.

"Did the Lin family instigate it?" Lei Jun asked.

Lu Zhaoqing said: "It may also be that the Dong family acted on their own, but even if the Lin family knew, they would only be happy to see it happen."

The Dong family is located in the lower reaches of the Qinglan River.

If the Qingxiao Lake upstream breaks its dike and releases floodwaters, it will flood the upper reaches, but it will reduce the threat to the downstream coast.

On the contrary, if the lake embankment upstream of Qingxiao Temple is consolidated, the water will continue to flow downward, and the Dong family must also work hard to control the water, otherwise they will have to bear the pressure of the flood peak.

Luo Haoran was angry: "For this, we have to destroy the upstream water conservancy?!"

Lu Zhaoqing was also a little unsure: "The Jiangzhou Lin family is the Lin family, and the Dong family is the Dong family. Do they have the guts to come and touch the tiger whiskers of the Tianshi Mansion?"

Lei Jun was silent.

He thought far away for a while.

The contemporary Tianshi has been in seclusion and retreating in recent years. His state is a bit abnormal, and it is difficult for the outside world not to notice.

The Jiangzhou Lin Clan and the Tianshi Mansion have a feud. After a few years of peace between the two sides, the other party may start to make plans again.

Maybe the Dong family was assigned to test the waters...

Lei Jun stopped thinking about it for the time being. In addition to being vigilant about any disturbances around him, he maintained the remaining talisman array with Luo Haoran and Lu Zhaoqing who also stayed behind, and continued to repair and reinforce it.

The three of them were responsible for a section of the lake embankment.

Lei Jun carefully reinforced the talisman array and used the power of the talisman to block the flood.

The flood combined with the turbulent flow of spiritual energy has terrible destructive power, constantly impacting the spiritual light of the talisman array, full of danger.

But in the dangerous marshland, Lei Jun suddenly had an idea.

He vaguely felt that his Fire Marrow Yang Fish and Weiji Bowl were touched by something.

Lei Jun searched carefully and finally found a strange spiritual stone under the lake embankment.

The spiritual stone is half black and half white, or black on top and white on the bottom.

The yin and yang in the stone communicate, and the spiritual atmosphere is somewhat like the cauldron furnace, Jiji furnace, that Lei Jun had taken for his master Yuan Mobai.

Jiji hexagram, water on top and fire on the bottom.

It is exactly opposite to the Weiji bowl.

"When the Qingxiao Lake Talisman Array was built, in order to balance water and fire, fire spirit objects were arranged in the Talisman Array..." Lei Jun was thoughtful.

The Talisman Array was damaged before, and the water and fire were out of balance, and it was in chaos.

Now the Talisman Array is barely repaired and maintained, and the fragile balance is restored, but there is a danger of overturning again at any time.

This chaos is once again righted, and in the process of containing a new chaos, perhaps such a Jiji stone was accidentally born?

The lottery mentioned that there is a sixth-grade opportunity and a seventh-grade opportunity. This should be one of them...

There are many things to do now, so Lei Jun will not think about it for the time being. He puts away the spiritual stone and continues to inspect the work of reinforcing the Talisman Array on the lake embankment.

After a busy trip, the three people have a huge loss of mana and energy.

Lei Jun and Luo Haoran recovered most of it after a short meditation.

Lu Zhaoqing still looks weak.

He always had white hair and youthful appearance, and he looked very good as a Taoist priest, but now he showed an irresistible old age.

"I am old, not as good as you young people." Lu Zhaoqing sighed.

Lei Jun and Luo Haoran both said that they would do the rough work, and Uncle Lu would just give guidance from the side.

Although, in theory, Lu Zhaoqing is the one with the highest cultivation among the three.

But as far as Lei Jun knows, the other party is already over 150 years old.

For the 200-year life span of a cultivator in the Altar Realm, this means that Lu Zhaoqing has entered the final twilight stage.

Not only has the hope of reaching a higher level been completely cut off, but the state of all aspects will also decline rapidly, and even fall to the realm.

Even if the realm does not fall, the ability of all aspects cannot maintain the original level.

Although Lei Jun choked Qin Tao half to death with his words at the beginning, he would not say the same thing in front of Lu Zhaoqing.

This old Taoist priest allowed Lei Jun to see for the first time up close that practitioners will also age and become weak.

It is necessary to improve cultivation as early as possible.

Comparing the aging Lu Zhaoqing with the young and vigorous Yuan Mobai, Li Ziyang and others, the difference is vividly displayed.

"Brother Luo, I see that your water-repellent talisman seems to be particularly powerful?" Lei Jun changed the subject.

Luo Haoran smiled: "There is nothing to hide. I chose the Water-Repellent Talisman for my third natal spell."

Lei Jun and Lu Zhaoqing had guessed before. Luo Haoran admitted it frankly at this moment. They all thought it was true, but they were more curious.

There are many kinds of talismans in the Tianshi Mansion. The Water-Repellent Talisman is not unpopular, but most of the time, everyone regards it as a functional or tool-type talisman.

I have never heard of anyone refining the Water-Repellent Talisman as their own natal spell.

After all, for cultivators at the level of the Three Heavens Altar, there are only three places for their natal spells. The options include Thunder Talisman, Wind Riding Talisman, Golden Gate Talisman, Divine Fighting Talisman, Tiangang Talisman, Evil-Repelling Talisman, Flame Talisman, etc., which is really a lot of problems.

In this case, wasting a place on the Water-Repellent Talisman is almost unheard of.

"My hometown was often hit by floods when I was a child."

Luo Haoran explained simply: "Didn't I talk to you, Junior Brother Lei, about this before? My family almost went to Guanlong to seek refuge with relatives because of this reason."

Lei Jun: "So, Senior Brother, you chose the water-avoiding talisman as your natal talisman to control the water?"

He remembered that when he was still in the Taoist Temple, he had dealings with Luo Haoran. Once he went to the Qingyundang River Beach to provide disaster relief and eliminate epidemics.

It was also the summer flood season, and the floods disturbed the people.

"Well, it's my own little ambition."

Luo Haoran looked up at the talisman array in front of him: "To some extent, it still comes in handy."

Lei Jun and Lu Zhaoqing both nodded.

The old Taoist sighed: "Nephew Luo, today is thanks to you and Nephew Lei."

Luo Haoran said a few polite words and said he didn't dare.

He felt that his magic power and energy had almost recovered, so he stood up again: "I still dare not be careless, I will look around again, now we have to guard against the Dong family's destruction again."

Lei Jun: "I will go with you."

Lu Zhaoqing: "Don't worry about this. The old Taoist has laid some spiritual talismans nearby to serve as a warning. If the Dong family attacks, we can prepare in advance."
