Chapter 17 Amulet

Chapter 17 Amulet

Chapter 17 Amulet

Although buying glutinous rice is a pressing matter, the two towns are indeed quite far apart.

It takes a whole day to go back and forth.

Moreover, as Uncle Jiu's Taoist temple, although the Yizhuang does not have a lot of glutinous rice reserves, it is not so bad that it cannot be used in emergencies.

It's no problem to hold on for a day or two.

The real problem is that the glutinous rice in the charity cemetery is not enough to help Wencai take a glutinous rice bath.

This is the real key to saving Wencai.

Although the zombie issue kept Uncle Jiu busy, he was reluctant to let his beloved apprentice leave with an empty stomach.

After breakfast, Qiu Sheng took action.

However, just as he was riding his bicycle and walking towards the charity cemetery with the money given by Uncle Jiu.

Song Feng, who had recovered from his sleep and did not need to catch up on his sleep, called out to Qiu Sheng from a distance:

"Qiu Sheng, come here first."

After hearing what his seventh uncle said, Qiu Sheng stopped his bicycle and ran over:

"Seventh Uncle, do you have any instructions for me? Is there something you need to buy that I haven't bought yet?"

When he arrived near his seventh uncle, Qiu Sheng's first reaction was that he did not buy everything, which made his seventh uncle unhappy.

But if you think about it, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

After all, Seventh Uncle has lived outside for so many years, he must have his own little habits, which he has not considered fully.

"Don't worry. I didn't ask you to come here to ask you to spend money to buy something."

"Renjia Town is now plagued by zombies. Since you are out buying sticky rice again, I will naturally give you something to protect yourself."

When he said this, he took out a necklace that looked like an amulet that had been carved out with a carving knife:

"You should be able to handle zombies, but take this acacia wood amulet just in case."

"I can't say about other effects, but at least if you encounter some little ghosts, I believe they won't dare to embarrass you."

Looking at the amulet that was obviously just carved by his seventh uncle, Qiu Sheng felt warm in his heart.

After all, even though his seventh uncle was in such a bad health, he still cared so much about him. How could he not be moved?
However, when he reacted, he was stunned for a moment, and then he held up the amulet in front of him with both hands, hesitating:

"Seventh Uncle, you said this is made of locust wood?"

"Didn't Master say that you, Seventh Uncle, were seriously injured and your magic power was gone? How could you still make an amulet?"

When he said this, he slapped himself as if he had realized what was happening, and then quickly explained:

"Pah! Uncle Seven, I'm not doubting you, it's just that this locust wood nourishes yin, and I'm also afraid that you've spent too much effort and hurt yourself..."

Looking at Qiu Sheng who was holding the pendant and explaining hurriedly, Song Feng showed a hint of smile in his eyes:

"Although Sophora japonica wood nourishes yin, it is also more convenient to use as a material for refining magic tools."

"Besides, my magic power has indeed dissipated, so naturally I cannot cast a spell to refine an amulet for you." "The reason why it is called an amulet is that this amulet is only for ghosts and monsters, and has no effect on other monsters."

Seeing the confusion in Qiu Sheng's eyes, Song Feng shook his head, and then planned to talk more with the little guy:

"Maoshan Sect, a great and righteous sect, does prefer grand and righteous things, and most of them like to use cinnabar peach wood as their magic tools."

"But everything in this world has its value. Some things are good if they are kept right, and there is no need to stick to the materials."

When he said this, he used the amulet in Qiu Sheng's hand as an example and began to explain:

"To be honest, the amulet in your hand is just a piece of locust wood carved by me, with a few strokes and a mark."

"Under normal circumstances, it has no effect in exorcising evil spirits, and it can even nourish yin and attract souls to a certain extent."

"But if such an item is carried by a cultivator and stimulates his blood and qi, and then encounters Yin Qi, it will naturally have extraordinary magical effects. Do you understand?"

After hearing his seventh uncle explain the mechanism of action of the locust wood amulet to him, Qiu Sheng suddenly realized:
"I see, it turns out it can be done this way!"

"No wonder people say that having an old man in the family is like having a treasure. Even if I rack my brains, I probably can't imagine that there is a magical instrument that can be used in this way."

"Hehehehe... Thank you, Seventh Uncle..."

No wonder even the master has a vague respect for Seventh Uncle, it turns out Seventh Uncle is so capable!

Seeing that his seventh uncle didn't seem to have anything to tell him, Qiu Sheng happily hung the amulet around his neck, then rode away on his bicycle:

"Seventh Uncle, I will go buy some glutinous rice for Wencai first. You must have a good rest in the charity cemetery~"

Looking at the figure going away and listening to the words coming from afar, Song Feng always kept a smile on his face.

From a distance, he seems friendly.

However, just across the wall, Uncle Jiu, who had heard Song Feng's words about Qiu Sheng, was a little curious:
"The amulet itself has no effect. It needs to be worn on the body at all times and intertwined with the blood and qi. Only when it touches the yin energy can it have a magical effect?"

"If that's the case, then the person who carved this amulet must have a deeper understanding of qi, blood, and ghosts than most people can imagine."

When thinking about this, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but become more cautious and serious:
"From this, it seems that Uncle Seven has profound attainments in many areas of cultivation. Even if his magic power is completely gone, he still has many methods."

"It seems that I have to be more cautious in the future. I just don't know what kind of background Seventh Uncle has..."

He originally thought that as long as he was watching over his seventh uncle, he would be able to prevent any accidents, but now it seems that his seventh uncle's abilities are far beyond his imagination.

He was able to achieve the effect of casting spells simply by using ordinary objects, and this was when his magic power had dissipated and his own energy and blood had been depleted and he was extremely weak.

If he had full magical powers, Uncle Nine couldn't even imagine what kind of abilities Uncle Seven had.

Thinking of this, Uncle Jiu took a deep breath:

"It seems that we can't wait any longer. Tonight I will use my magic to go into the underworld and find the ancestor to find out about the past of my seventh uncle."

It is extremely worrying to have an unfathomable old monster of unknown origin, good and evil by your side all the time.

Just when Uncle Jiu left.

Song Feng, who had been looking into the distance with a smile on his face, twitched his ears slightly, and the corners of his mouth slightly curved up:
"The breathing sound is too obvious..."
