Chapter 26 Secretly Earn Some Private Money

Pei Ruxi frowned and said, "A basic talisman is so expensive?"

She calculated the account, "A hundred water-gathering talismans can only cost 180 spirit coins at most. Even if I succeed every time I draw the talisman, after deducting the cost, if I earn 330 spirit coins from [-] water-gathering talismans, I still have to draw [-] four to get my money back."

"The basic talismans of the clan are actually very cheap. If you buy them outside, you won't be able to buy them without more than a dozen spiritual stones." Uncle Pei Ba said.

"Can the clan be the same as outside?" Pei Rushi asked his father, "I practice the mental methods given by the clan and learn the clan's spells, but the clan also needs spiritual stones?"

"The Hua Rong Yue Mao Heart Technique was accidentally obtained by our ancestors through their experience outside. Our ancestors asked you to practice it. You don't need to give clan spirit stones." Pei Xiangrong replied, "The spells I teach you are small spells. Some of them don't need to give clan spirit stones. Some of them don't need to give clan spirit stones. Dad has given you the clan spirit stones, so you can learn from them without any worries."

"Where are the others?" Pei Ruxi asked again, "Brother Xiaozhi, do you want money to learn the art of avoiding dust? What about learning the art of silence?"

"Of course I have to give it." Pei Xiangrong touched his daughter's head and said to Uncle Pei, "You can draw talismans, but I can't. You tell Xixi about the talismans you can draw. If she wants to learn, you teach her."

Uncle Pei Ba said in embarrassment: "Second brother, my niece's talent is so outstanding, should we inform the clan?"

Pei Xiangrong had a harder time than him, and whispered: "I asked the eighth brother to hide the secret from the clan on behalf of Brother Yu. Xixi has a talent for drawing talismans. I'm worried that the clan will require her to draw talismans every day and waste her practice. You also know that Xixi was almost cut off last year. She has spent all her cultivation resources, and this year she has almost no spiritual food to eat. Please pity her..."

These words blocked Pei Bashu's unspoken excuse. The clan had indeed gone too far, and he had no way to defend himself.

Uncle Pei sighed silently, picked up the pen for drawing talismans, and taught Pei Ruxi how to draw talisman. While teaching, he said: "The clan rule is that every time you learn a kind of talisman, you must bring your own pen, ink, paper, and inkstone to draw a hundred pictures of that talisman." Plant talismans and give them to the clan. If you don’t want to draw talismans, you can give them to spiritual stones. For side branches, you need to draw two hundred."

Pei Rushi: "Who made these rules?"

Uncle Pei: "Old ancestor."

Pei Rushi: "The talismans we learned were also given to the clan by our ancestors?"

Uncle Pei: "No, the talisman was left by the great ancestor who died more than 100 years ago."

Pei Rushi: "What are the rules set by Emperor Gaozu?"

Uncle Pei: "Learn one kind of talisman and draw twenty talismans."

Pei Ruxi: "I like Gaozu's rules."

Uncle Pei also liked Gaozu's rules.

Day and night changed. Pei Ruxi stayed at home for one day and went to school as usual.

She wanted to see the Su family's collection of talismans, so she went to the Su family's library and found that it was cheaper to exchange the talismans with the Su family than with the Pei family. Eighty talismans could be exchanged.

Is Su so generous?

Pei Ruxi didn't believe it and asked again and again, admitting that Su was so generous.

Or to put it another way, Pei was stingy and squeezed his tribe members too hard.

Considering that Pei Xiangrong did not want his talent for drawing talismans to be made public, Pei Ruxi did not exchange talisman drawing techniques with Su, but borrowed a book and went to the school.

She went to her husband and said, "The morning classes at the school are too simple. I don't want to go to class. Please allow me to practice at my residence."

Sir: "Isn't it allowed?"

Pei Ruxi said: "It's up to you whether you allow it or not. It's up to me whether to go to class or not. You can't influence my decision."

The husband knew that she had her own opinion, but he couldn't resist and said: "Today you can practice at your residence. I have to ask the patriarch's wife if you can do it tomorrow. If the patriarch's wife refuses, you have to go to class tomorrow."

Pei Ruxi thought to himself that maybe he didn't know the word "truant".

Pei Ruxi, who did not go to class, was drawing talismans at her residence. Uncle Pei taught her three types of offensive talismans, namely: sharp blade talisman, fireball talisman and water gun talisman.

The market price of these three types of talismans is two spiritual stones each. Pei Ruxi draws four to six of ten successfully. He can get ten talismans in one morning, which is much more cost-effective than raising fish.Since there is no need to remove the spiritual attribute when drawing water gun talismans, Pei Ruxi drew ten water gun talismans in one go. He calculated the time and found that lunch would be eaten in half an hour.

She raised her chin and thought for a moment, picked up three water gun charms, and used the True Water Escape Technique to shuttle into a drop of water.

Water drops hang on the leaves of the big tree, which is located outside the Su family's ancestral home. People from the Su family's side tribe who have no spiritual roots live nearby.Under the tree were several four or five-year-old children playing, laughing and joking, carefree.

Pei Ruxi, who turned into a small puddle of water, stopped on the tree and watched for a while. He changed from liquid to thin gas, floated slowly to a place where no one was around, and landed on the ground to regain his human form.

His heart was beating wildly, and Pei Ruxi stroked his heart, feeling nervous and excited.

He actually slipped out of the Su family's ancestral home.

So exciting!

She calmed down, put the three talismans in the inner pocket of her sleeves, and used the light body technique to go to Jinfang, where elixirs, talismans, magic weapons and other items were circulated in her memory, intending to sell the three water gun talismans.

Jinfang is not the most prosperous place in Luoxia City. The Huizi Street outside Jinfang is full of people and lively all year round.

Pei Ruxi did not want to use her identity as Miss Pei Wu to sell talismans. She bought a cloak, shoes and gloves for children on Huizi Street, and also bought rouge and gouache for makeup, spending a total of twenty spiritual coins.

Her spirit coins were pocket money given by Pei Xiangrong and Liang Jianan, and she used them for the first time today.

There was an inn nearby. Pei Ruxi went into the inn and asked for a room. He used the makeup skills he learned in his previous life to paint his face in a way that even Pei Xiangrong could not recognize. Then he changed his hairstyle and shoes and put on gloves.

Take a look at the water mirror. The person in the mirror is very strange.

She grinned, tied the bindi on her arm, put on her cloak, covered her face, and walked to Jinfang in a swaggering way.

Most of the people who came in and out of Jinfang were monks, and Pei Ruxi was not the only one wearing a cloak. However, she was short and her cultivation level at the fifth level of Qi Refining was neither high nor low, which attracted some probing eyes.

Pei Ruxi looked at them.

Their cultivation levels were generally at the third or fourth level of Qi Refining. When she looked at them, they all averted their eyes and walked away pretending to be casual.

With the defensive weapon given by his ancestor on him, Pei Ruxi went straight to a shop without thinking about whether these people had malicious intentions.

The owner of this shop is a foreigner. The shop sells a variety of things, including tools for refining alchemy and drawing talismans, as well as finished elixirs and talismans. It also buys medicinal herbs, spiritual herbs, the skin, flesh, blood and bones of monsters and other miscellaneous things.The counter is about three feet high, and behind it sits a thin, middle-aged man with an abacus and a tenth level of Qi Refining. He is the shopkeeper.

Pei Ruxi, who was four feet tall, walked towards the counter.

The shopkeeper raised his head while calculating the accounts and said with a smile: "What do you want to buy, sir?"

Pei Ruxi used his spiritual power to change the frequency of his voice and uttered low and hoarse words: "I sell talismans."

The shopkeeper looked at the talisman and said, "Five hundred spiritual coins, do you want to sell it?"

Pei Ruxi said: "We won't sell less than five spiritual stones."

Spirit stones are more valuable than spirit coins. Five spirit stones can be exchanged for [-] spirit coins, but there are very few people willing to exchange them.

The shopkeeper held the water gun talisman and took a closer look. The spiritual patterns were painted very smoothly. It was a good talisman.He asked: "Can you draw talismans? Next time you sell me talismans, I will give you five spiritual stones."

The implication is that this time he is only willing to give her five hundred spirit coins.

Pei Ruxi had short hands and couldn't reach the water gun talisman in the shopkeeper's hand, so he simply used the ability to control objects to get the talisman back, turned around and left.

Go to hell with your five hundred spiritual coins, and slaughter us like a fat sheep. We won’t sell the talismans anymore!
