Chapter 329 Uncle is shocked
Jiang Yuwei was completely bewildered: "What stealing fortune? What array eye? What heavenly thunder talisman?"
Jiang Yuchuan said helplessly, "I've already discussed this with my older brother."
Jiang Yuchuan had already told Jiang Yuwei about what had happened on the mountain when Yu Zhiyi told him.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yuwei didn't believe it.
Judging from his current appearance, he not only doesn't believe it, but has also completely forgotten what happened that day.
Jiang Yuwei then remembered that his younger brother had indeed mentioned some kind of formation, but he thought it was too absurd at the time.
He believed that the Demonic Sect was secretly plotting to destroy the Martial Alliance, but he thought it was a pipe dream to think that someone wanted to use so-called formations to destroy the Martial Alliance.
If there really were a formation that could steal someone's luck, the world would have been in chaos long ago.
Today you set up a formation to steal from me, tomorrow I'll set up a formation to steal from him, and the day after tomorrow he'll steal from someone else. If this continues, who will bother to study hard, practice martial arts, and make money?
Just go and steal them all.
So Jiang Yuwei put the matter out of his mind as soon as he heard it.
Just as he was about to ask what was going on, he caught a glimpse of Yu Zhiyi's actions out of the corner of his eye and was suddenly startled: "Jin'er, what are you doing?!"
Then his little niece ran over and started digging at the corpse.
While it's true that people in the martial arts world don't care about formalities, this is just too shocking!
What little girl wouldn't run far away from a corpse?
She actually leaned closer and even touched him!
"I just wanted to see if this person had anything that could prove their identity."
Yu Zhiyi stood up nonchalantly and took out a handkerchief from her bosom to wipe each of her fingers clean.
Jiang Yuwei: "Leave this kind of thing to us. You're a young lady, so you should go back and get some rest. Don't get involved in these things."
Yu Zhiyi raised an eyebrow.
Before she could say anything, Jiang Yuchuan became displeased: "Big brother, can you stop treating women as weak and helpless? Jin'er is very capable, no less so than men. Besides, only Jin'er understands array formations, and no one else can handle this matter."
Jiang Yuwei remained silent.
The second brother is really praising his niece way too much!
However, considering that even Prefect Song had to give his niece some face, he didn't argue anymore and simply asked, "Did Jin'er find anything?"
Yu Zhiyi took out a token: "This should be able to identify the person, but it's also possible that this person used it to deliberately confuse the public."
She then took out a dagger: "This is the weapon this person uses, but he didn't attack me with a weapon just now. I'm not sure if this is his usual weapon; it might also be used to conceal his identity."
As she spoke, she took out another talisman, folded into a neat square.
"What's this?"
Jiang Yuchuan was curious.
Yu Zhiyi said, "Spatial talisman."
Jiang Yuwei: "?"
He understands each word individually, but why can't he understand them when they're put together?
What's empty? What's spaced? What symbol?
Yu Zhiyi explained, "As the name suggests, a spatial talisman contains a hidden space that can be used to store things. The size of the space depends on the skill of the person who drew the talisman and the runes used."
She unfolded the talisman in her hand and said calmly, "This is a low-level spatial talisman, containing only one cubic meter of space."
As she spoke, she wiped her hand on the side road, and then with a thought, the items in the spatial talisman fell to the ground.
This move of conjuring objects out of thin air stunned the two brothers.
Even though Jiang Yuchuan knew his daughter was capable and knew the power of metaphysics, he never expected that she could use metaphysics to store things.
If this kind of supernatural power could be widely adopted, wouldn't that mean that everyone would no longer need to carry a bag when traveling?
With just two extra space talismans, you can take everything in your home except for fixed buildings.
Jiang Yuwei, who had previously dismissed metaphysical abilities, was even more shocked.
Such supernatural power really exists!
Ignoring the brothers' shock, Yu Zhiyi glanced at the things on the ground and quickly locked onto her target.
The space talisman contained quite a lot of things, including tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Two fist-sized white crystals, emanating a rich spiritual energy.
Some miscellaneous books.
Many talismans.
A peach wood sword made from lightning-struck wood.
But what surprised Yu Zhiyi was not these things, but the pile of messy hidden weapons on the ground.
To be precise, it was one of those hidden weapons.
She stepped forward and picked up the hidden weapon.
"This is……"
Jiang Yuchuan looked at the hidden weapons curiously and asked, "Is there something wrong with these hidden weapons?"
Yu Zhiyi pursed her lips: "It's nothing, it just looks a bit familiar."
She picked up the two white crystals again, sensing the abundant spiritual energy within them, and her eyes flickered slightly.
“Uncle, this man’s target is Mingshan. Consider the gold and silver as his apology. As for the other things, you don’t need them, so I’ll take them with me.”
Although she spoke in a consultative tone, she didn't give Jiang Yuwei a chance to object and directly put away the two crystals, the appendices, the book, the peach wood sword, and all the hidden weapons.
Jiang Yuwei hesitated, then swallowed back what he wanted to say.
He was used to having absolute power in the martial arts alliance, and in the past, only his second brother would occasionally contradict his decisions.
During moments like when equipment drops, his subordinates would usually gather all the items and bring them to him for distribution.
This is all standard practice.
This situation, where subordinates bypassed him and distributed supplies directly, only notifying him after the distribution was complete, had never happened before.
But what could he say?
He didn't kill the person, and my niece is right, he wouldn't need those things anyway.
Moreover, the Martial Alliance's treasury received tens of thousands of taels of silver and at least hundreds of taels of gold for nothing.
He still made a profit, no matter how you look at it.
So in the end, he could only say, "I will put all the money into the treasury, and starting next month, everyone in the second branch of the family will have their monthly allowance increased by ten taels."
Yu Zhiyi didn't care about any of that.
Gold and silver are good things, but unfortunately he cannot obtain them through the Tongtian Pavilion or by improper means.
If Jiang Yuwei weren't here today, she could still hand him over to her own father.
But her uncle is still the one in charge of the martial arts alliance, and she can't let him hold a grudge against her own father.
Most importantly, the talismans, the two white crystals, and the hidden weapons are far more valuable than the gold and silver.
Jiang Yuchuan had no objection to his daughter's and his elder brother's arrangements. After the items were distributed, he said, "I will follow the clues of the token and the weapon to investigate this person's identity. Although it may be a bit troublesome, as long as there are clues, we will be able to find out the identity of the mastermind sooner or later."
Thinking of the hidden weapon she was particularly concerned about, Yu Zhiyi said calmly, "You don't need to worry about this."
Jiang Yuwei frowned.
Yu Zhiyi explained, "The Fortune-Turning Array is an extremely insidious array, which is intolerable to the Heavenly Dao. Now that the array has been broken, the person behind it will suffer a backlash."
Jiang Yuwei was shocked again.
