Chapter 18 Sapphire Talisman Pen
At the stone table in the courtyard of the blue-tiled brick house, two figures sat down one after another.

Feeling the unchanging gentleness and concern of the other party, Li Zhengran hesitated for a moment, and finally called him respectfully and sincerely:
"Uncle Qingshan."

"Eh."

Hearing this, Yang Qingshan, who was wearing a cloud-patterned white robe, smiled and nodded, seemingly very satisfied.

Three years later, time still has not left any traces on him.

Even though he is nearly 47 years old, his tough middle-aged face is still in his 30s, his tiger eyes are shining brightly, and the fluctuations of energy, blood and spiritual power hidden in his burly body are still in the prime of life.

Perhaps because he was worried that Li Zhengran would think too much, he said with a smile: "In the past three years, the area around Baiyunshanfang City has not been very peaceful."

"It's Uncle Qingshan's fault that I haven't been able to take the time to come see you."

Hearing this, Li Zhengran quickly shook his head, respectfully poured him a cup of hot tea, and said gratefully: "Uncle Qingshan, don't try to hurt your nephew."

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to live such a stable life today."

"Ha ha."

Yang Qingshan smiled and said nothing, looking around the courtyard before taking a sip of the hot tea.

The atmosphere was a bit silent for a moment, Li Zhengran lowered his head slightly, not showing much expression.

Immediately, after the teacup was put down, Yang Qingshan broke the silence and said straight to the point: "I heard that you are now a beginner in Fu Dao?"

After finishing his words, Li Zhengran smiled helplessly.

He knew that after making the decision to trade with the Yang family, it was only a matter of time before the other party learned about it.

Thinking of the wording he had prepared before, he scratched his head and said with a little embarrassment: "I just had the help of the first-order talisman paper, and I was lucky enough to understand it."

"Not bad!"

Unexpectedly, Yang Qingshan seemed to be very satisfied, nodded and said seriously: "Cultivation of the various arts is difficult and obscure. No matter which path you take, being able to get started means you have the corresponding qualifications."

"It's normal to use first-level talisman. Even my daily breathing and breathing have to be supplemented by pill practice."

Yang Qingshan looked at him and said in a serious tone: "So there is nothing shameful about borrowing foreign objects, and you must not belittle yourself because of it."

Seeing the serious concern and consolation in his eyes, and thinking of the protection he had given him over the years, Li Zhengran felt warm in his heart, nodded heavily and said, "Thank you, Uncle Qingshan, for your teaching."

"Haha, if you really want to thank me, try to become a first-level Talisman Master as soon as possible."

Yang Qingshan smiled slightly and said as if expecting: "At that time, I will have an explanation to brother Tianfeng and sister Xiyue."

Li Tianfeng and Xu Xiyue were the original parents. They had passed away long before Li Zhengran traveled through time, and they only survived in his memory.

For a moment, after hearing the other party's emotion, Li Zhengran, who had taken over his original body, remained silent, not knowing how to answer.

"Hey, as I get older, my speech becomes a bit stale."

Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, Yang Qingshan quickly waved his hand, patted the storage bag with a gentle smile, and took out an item from it.

"Now that you have entered the Tao of Talisman, there is hope for you to become a first-level Talisman Master."

"Then this sapphire talisman pen can be regarded as a famous instrument with an owner."

Looking at it, a brand-new and intact sapphire-colored talisman pen was suspended in the air. Its full spirituality almost overflowed. Even if you haven't touched it, you can feel that it is extraordinary.

A first-level high-grade talisman pen is worth at least 200 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones.

Seeing this, Li Zhengran froze on the spot, with mixed feelings in his heart.

All along, he had been deliberately avoiding owing any debt to the Yang family and his son.

But both he and Yang Dahai have provided him with protection and resources in the past three years without asking for anything in return, and there has never been a single complaint.The person who occupies the magpie's nest is actually not related to them, so how can he receive such favor?
Although he really needs new talisman pens at the moment, Li Zhengran knows very well that even with Yang Qingshan's ninth-level Qi training level, apart from magic weapons and elixirs, his spiritual stones can only cost more than 1000 yuan at most.

It will undoubtedly cost a lot to buy such treasures.

The thought flashed across his mind, and he quickly stood up and said respectfully and seriously: "Uncle Qingshan, this thing is too valuable."

"For my nephew, it is really a waste of natural resources."

"I hope you will"

However, before he could finish his polite words of rejection, Yang Qingshan pretended to be displeased on his face, snorted and raised his hand to interrupt: "Expensive?"

"In terms of my life, Yang Qingshan, how much is this thing worth?"

Li Zhengran was startled, but he still insisted on explaining: "Yes."

"If it weren't for Brother Tianfeng and Brother Xiyue, I, Yang Qingshan, would have turned into a pile of bones in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range."

Yang Qingshan ignored it, his attitude changed from his previous gentleness, and he said almost forcefully: "It's just a first-level talisman pen, is it possible that it can be more valuable than my life, Yang Qingshan's?"

Hearing this, Li Zhengran stood there, speechless and choked again.

Seeing him like this, Yang Qingshan's expression softened slightly and he said again: "For a Talisman Master, the Talisman Pen is his magical weapon."

"If you don't have something to take advantage of, how can you truly ascend the Talisman Master's Road?"

The words were not loud, but they seemed to be deafening and enlightening, causing Li Zhengran's head to hang slightly, with a vague realization.

All along, in order to keep a low profile and avoid favors from others, he could be said to have given up a lot of resources that he should have obtained sooner.

Just like the previous hesitation about the broken talisman pen, if he was willing to take the initiative to find the Yang family and his son, why would he be so entangled again.

But being low-key doesn’t mean hiding in plain sight and disappearing from the public eye, nor does it mean having no desires or seeking and rejecting good fate.Rather, we must devote ourselves to practice to show weakness to the enemy, and operate steadily to achieve good results.

For this reason, it doesn't hurt even to form some favors and karma, as long as the strength is enough to repay them one by one in the future.

For a moment, with happiness in his heart, Li Zhengran's eyes brightened slightly, and his originally agitated mood gradually calmed down and became more stable and solid.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and immediately bowed deeply and saluted, with a serious look in his eyes and said: "I solemnly thank Uncle Qingshan."

"The kindness you receive today will be repaid in the future."

Seeing him like this, Yang Qingshan knew that he had figured it out, his face became gentler, and he smiled and cursed: "There are so many twists and turns between uncle and nephew. If you want to repay the favor, wait until you become the foundation builder."

"In comparison, Lin Han is more enlightened."

Hearing this, Li Zhengran smiled helplessly, but he knew what the other party was referring to.

When Lin Han left Baiyun Mountain alone, he naturally received a lot of favors from Yang Qingshan. Otherwise, how could he have overcome thousands of miles of obstacles and successfully reached the peak of Xuanjianmen.

Even the other party's ability to stand out among the outer disciples in the past three years is also due to the support of Yang Qingshan's spiritual stone.

Thinking of this, Li Zhengran was completely relieved, smiled slightly and said: "Uncle Qingshan, my nephew understands."

"I hope you, sir, will not care about the villain's faults and never take them to heart."

"Hehe, you kid."

Yang Qingshan raised his hand and nodded at him, a little surprised by how quickly he changed.

However, seeing that he had finally figured it out, he didn't care too much. Instead, he nodded happily and smiled heartily:
"It's so good, so good!"
