Chapter 49 Business is booming
As soon as the flag was raised on Yunqi's side, a strong Miao man came over immediately. He also had red hair and must be a disciple of Hongmuling.

He handed over a long-handled golden hammer stained with black dirty water and said:

"Little Taoist, my hammer was contaminated with black mud by the demons from Baiman Mountain. Now my magic power doesn't flow smoothly when I activate it. Can you please refine it and clean it?"

Yunqi took it and held it in his hand. It was extremely heavy. There were many gold characters engraved on the melon hammer, but at this time, it was contaminated by the fishy and dirty water and its spiritual light was dim.

This is a dirty trick that the Southern Wilderness Demon Cult is very good at. They take the blood of black snakes, gray foxes, long-bearded rats, three-legged jackals, purple water toads and other Yin creatures, and mix it with some Yin stone rot grass, and use secret methods to concoct a venom that can contaminate spirituality. It is called Corrupted Spirit Water. No matter if it touches talismans or tools, their power will be greatly reduced. If it is sprinkled directly on a person, the person will shed a layer of skin if he does not die.

The people in the Southern Wilderness call this water "rotten spirit water". People in Miaojiang regard this water as rotten and smelly like mud, so they contemptuously call it "black mud".

No matter it is the current war or the daily confrontations, this kind of thing is the most troublesome and the most disgusting thing for the Miao people. What they hate is not only the corrupting effect of the black mud, but also the fact that the Southern Wilderness Demon Cult sees this method as profitable, so not only do they not kill those evil creatures, but they also feed them and extract their blood.

It is precisely because of this that there is naturally a way out in Miaojiang, that is, the monks of thunder or fire magic use thunder and fire, two very yang things, to burn away the stains on the surface of the magic weapon. This requires the quality of the thunder and fire and the caster, as they must remove the dirt without damaging the object itself.

However, due to the inheritance of Hongmuling, most people in Miaojiang use fire magic, and fewer use thunder magic.

At this moment, the Miao people asked, "Young Taoist, are you going to use fire or thunder?"

The clouds naturally replied that the method used was fire.

After saying this, he asked the Miao people to wait for a while, then he glanced around and saw a straw mat for resting on the floor of the thatched hut. He picked up the mat and hung it up as a door curtain to keep the Miao people out.

Seeing Yunqi hanging up the door curtain, Bai Gouer immediately stood outside the curtain and looked around.

"Little Taoist, what are you doing?"

Yunqi took the weapons of the Miao people of Hongmu Ridge and said with a smile, "Uncle, I was sent by Qinglong Temple. This stall is also Qinglong Temple's stall. How can I steal your things? Don't worry, I have some secret recipes here. I guarantee that I can clean all the dirt on your things."

The Miao man was skeptical, but after thinking about it, he felt that since he had come from Qinglong Temple, he would have to pay for any damages.

But he was still worried, so he reminded him, "My golden hammer is made of Yaoshan gold. Although it is hard, it cannot withstand fire. Don't damage my thing when you refine it with black mud. If you can't refine it, don't force it. I will find someone who can use thunder magic, okay?"

Yunqi smiled and nodded, telling him to wait outside without worry.

Yunqi sat in the hut, circulated the fire magic in his body to summon flames. His fire control technique was now quite exquisite. A small flame appeared on his fingertips, and the flame carefully approached the dirty water on the surface of the hammer, making sure to burn only the dirty water and not the golden hammer.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak——”

The sewage made a hissing sound, and a string of tiny bubbles appeared on the surface, and a fishy smell spread.

Yunqi counted the time, and it took only a cup of tea to burn away a piece of dirt as big as the nail of his little finger.

So he put away the flame, and used his magic power again, and the color of the flame on his fingertips changed to gold.

It is the Sun, Fire.

He used the same trick again, slowly bringing the Sun Fire closer to the stain on the golden hammer. At this time, the black stain melted quickly like ice and snow seeing the sun, and then turned into wisps of black smoke that rose up. The black smoke that left the surface of the golden hammer was quickly burned into nothingness by the Sun Fire and never appeared again. Even the fishy smell was burned away completely.

Yunqi saw that using this solar fire to deal with dirt was more than ten times faster than the flames produced by ordinary fire magic.

This is the natural aversion of the Sun Fire to filth.

So Yunqi switched to using the sun's Bing fire to burn it. In less than half a quarter of an hour, the golden gourd had been restored to its original state, and all the dirt on the surface was gone. Yunqi also discovered that in addition to the Yaoshan gold that the Miao man had just mentioned, many other sundries were mixed in when the golden gourd hammer was refined. These sundries could still match the Yaoshan gold when they were first used, but their quality was not as good as the Yaoshan gold. Now they have decayed and become a flaw on the golden hammer, which is worse than nothing.

He decided to be a good person and burned some useless gold with fire, and tempered the gold hammer.

Then Yunqi lifted the door curtain and saw the Miao people milling around in front of the stall.

Yunqi smiled and handed the golden hammer over, saying, "Uncle, try injecting some more magic power into it and see how it works."

The Miao man saw the golden hammer shining brightly, and he was convinced of Yunqi's craftsmanship. After taking it, he tried to inject his magic power into it, and saw the restrictions on the golden hammer shining. He was surprised to find that it was smoother to mobilize magic power than before the weapon was contaminated. He was shocked and asked Yunqi how he did it?
Yunqi waved his hands and smiled without saying anything.

The Miao man realized that he had said something wrong, so he stopped asking questions and kept thanking him.

Yunqi took out a book from a wooden shelf in the thatched cottage and handed it to the Miao man.

The Miao man naturally knew the rules. He took the manual and picked up a pen to fill in the four columns of date, sect, name, and achievement: December 4, Gonggong Village, Hongmuling, Guaixi, Yin, Jia. Yunqi bowed to the Miao man.

The Miao man picked up the golden pumpkin and was about to leave, but he paused. He stood in front of the stall and suddenly shouted loudly,

"Everyone, everyone! This young Taoist from Qinglong Cave has superb skills. Not only did he refine the filth on me, but he also tempered me. Now my magic power is even better. Everyone, come and try it!"

Yunqi was a little surprised to see this, but he also stood up, walked to the side of the Miao man, and bowed to all directions.

Everyone was excited when they heard this, because there had been no news from the previous stall owner of Qinglong Cave for two days, and everyone's belongings were more or less stained by black mud, so when they heard the Miao man's call, they all came over, and Yunqi naturally accepted everyone and asked everyone to line up.

He now consumes energy through visualization, and although his mind has not yet opened and the magic power stored in it is not much, so he cannot cast powerful spells. However, the process of converting spiritual power into magic power is continuous, so it is extremely convenient for him to perform this small technique with little loss.

As Yunqi refined three or five magical instruments, his fame gradually spread, and more and more people came. Then someone discovered that the flag in front of this stall was not only for refining magic weapons, but also for drawing talismans. So they immediately asked Yunqi to draw a talisman, and he drew a fire talisman.

Yunqi agreed with a smile. He knew that most of the people in Hongmu Ridge practiced Yang Fire Method, while most of the people in Baiman Mountain practiced Yin Water Method, so the fire talismans here were the most sought-after. This was also the reason why he received this order.

Seeing someone asking Yunqi to draw talismans, some people who were queuing up for defecation were no longer in a hurry. They hurried to have a look and asked Yunqi to draw the talisman first while they could wait.

Yunqi agreed with a smile. Qinglong Temple naturally did not let the stall owner pay for the materials for drawing the talisman. There were talisman paper, talisman ink, and talisman pens in the hut.

There was no need to avoid people when drawing talismans with clouds. It would be useless for people who did not understand the meaning of the talismans to just look at the talismans. So he sat down on the table and chairs in front of the door curtain and began to draw talismans.

He drew a Yang Fire Demon-Destroying Talisman, which was most effective in dealing with the evil demons in Baiman Mountain.

Yun Qi finished the talisman with a wave of his hand and handed it to the person who requested it. He said
"This fellow Taoist can give it a try. This talisman is free. I paid for it myself."

Yunqi told him how to use it: pinch the talisman head with fingers, inject fire magic power from the talisman head, recite the command, and throw out the talisman paper.

The man nodded when he heard this. Of course, the talisman must be tried before use. Otherwise, if the power is too great or too small, it can be fatal on the battlefield.

He took the talisman paper, looked around, and set his eyes on a stone in the center of the river.

He jumped onto a rock, facing the river downstream, holding a talisman in his hand and reciting an imperial decree.

"The blazing sun patrols the sky, the blazing fire clears the way, go!"

He threw the talisman paper and immediately saw:
The talisman paper burned in the air, and instantly two fire dragons spewed out and shot into the air, at least seven or eight feet away!
Just like the ruts left by the legendary sun chariot rolling through the sky, they linger for a long time.

The heat wave radiated to both sides of the stream. The ice in the river near the shore melted instantly, and the snow on both sides turned into water, revealing bushes and grass.

The flames were shooting directly in the direction of the clean lake surface, which was empty and had no idea of ​​its power.

Both sides were quiet.

Their market town is prepared for the cultivators in the lower reaches of the First Realm. They are all people who have been working in the lower reaches of the First Realm for a long time.

Logically, the people sent by Qinglong Cave should also be of this level, but looking at this fire talisman, it doesn't seem to have the power of the lower level!

"Master, I want five!"

Someone broke the silence.

"Seven!"

"Two! Just two will do!"

……

Both sides of the strait suddenly became lively.
