Chapter 27
The Feather Stone transformed into countless crystalline feathers, which fell upon the infant spirits, dispelling their resentment. This process lasted two hours, and I was already somewhat exhausted, but the Feather Stone was delighted. These many infant spirits, while dispelling their resentment, also repaired the Feather Stone itself.
I wiped the sweat from my forehead until the last infant spirit was liberated.
The ritual of salvation is an extremely serious and boring matter. He Man watched for a while and then left. Now I was the only one left in the entire Fayan Temple.
Now that the matter has finally come to an end, I dragged my tired body out of the temple.
He Man was waiting for me outside. When she saw me coming out with a tired look on my face, she quickly came over to support me.
Two days later, He Man and I went to Bangkok for another two days. When we first arrived, we thought it was very unique, but after a long time, we became aesthetically fatigued and felt it was just so-so.
We returned to Chiang Mai that day. He Man's original plan was to sell the ritual implements in bundles with He's Jewelry. But now that something happened at Wat Phra Dhammyan, the reputation of Kumantong is not very good. He Man seized the opportunity, using public opinion to build momentum while paving the way for the ritual implements. All the ritual implements we made were sold out.
As a last resort, I plunged back into crafting instruments. Practice makes perfect, and this time, I was noticeably faster than last time. In a week, I'd made over a hundred instruments, doing everything from carving the jade to consecrating it, all by myself. When He Man received the instruments, she praised me for my jade carving prowess, saying I was a true master.
This jade carving skill was taught to me by Mr. Meng, who was introduced to me by He Man.
In the evening, He Man and I were having a midnight snack outside. Across the road, I saw a dark shadow hiding behind a tree, as if looking at us.
He Man saw that I was looking over there and asked me, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay. By the way, Sister Man, my family will come over in a few days, and I will teach them how to make magic tools. Don't worry, the quality will definitely not be bad." I said.
"That's better. It saves you from being tired every time." He Man said.
"Sister Man, please find me a jade bead in the next two days. The higher the quality, the better." I said.
"We can go and choose now. My shop is also here." said He Man.
After having dinner with He Man, we drove all the way to He’s Jewelry.
I have known He Man for so long, but this is the first time I have seen He’s Jewelry.
This shop is located in Chiang Mai's affluent area, and the decor is magnificent. Compared to my Fuyuantang, the decor is truly on a different level. The dazzling array of jewelry on the counter overwhelmed me. However, my purpose this time wasn't to pick out jewelry, but to find a high-quality bead.
I carefully felt the aura of each jade bead, and finally picked a white jade. After getting the jade, we prepared to go back and rest.
Alone in my room, I took out my carving knife and meticulously began carving. This time, a sudden inspiration struck me, and I decided to carve it in the form of a Thunder and Fire Bead. I used lightning patterns at the top, fire patterns at the bottom, and a formation in the center to store spirits. This time, I carved the formation with extreme precision, only finishing when I felt it could hold the energy of a single Thunder and Fire Bead.
I infused the spirit into it, and the entire white jade instantly transformed into a pearl, gleaming with silver light. Tiny lightning flashed from the top, and a faint glow of fire could be seen at the bottom. While this bead was certainly not as powerful as the Thunder and Fire Bead I had directly condensed, it was still about 60% as potent.
I looked at this work with satisfaction. It was the most successful magical instrument I had ever created. It was a pity that ghost spirits were unique to our ghost tribe. Otherwise, I could have carved a self-generating magic circle on it. Then it would truly be endlessly reborn, making it an extremely powerful magical instrument.
The more I looked at the silver beads, the more I liked them. Finally, I strung them together with a red string, played with them carefully, and finally put them in my pocket.
I knocked on He Man's door and placed the jade bead in front of her.
Her eyes were immediately attracted by the jade beads.
"How can it be so beautiful!" she said in surprise.
"Sister Man, I really don't know anything else. The only thing I can appreciate is making magic tools. My family will come over in a few days, so I'll leave everything to you," I said.
He Man suddenly looked at me seriously and said, "If you gave me the beads for this matter, then you should take them back. Didn't I promise you last time? Don't you trust me?"
I am so worried that I have been distracted by my family these days. I don't have any other skills, and the only thing I am interested in is making magic tools, so I want to make a powerful magic tool as a thank you gift.
Unexpectedly, He Man was a little angry.
"Sister Man, I'm not..."
"It's nothing. Are you afraid that I won't care about my uncle and aunt?"
My face turned red, that's indeed what I meant.
"You, you, I don't know what to say to you. If it weren't for you the last time I went to BJ, I would have died long ago. In my heart, I already regard you as my best friend. I know you work in the Xuanzhen Bureau, and I also know that the operation of the Xuanzhen Bureau also requires funds. Many people heard that our He family wanted to enter the magic weapon business and came to me to discuss cooperation. Why should I do it with you?"
"Sister Man." I looked at her in surprise.
"As long as you cooperate with me, no matter it is the Xuanzhen Bureau or any other bureau, you will be treated like a lady. Do you understand what I mean?" He Man said confidently.
Given the status of the He family, they are indeed qualified to say this. Now I understand why He Man directly excluded Xinhai Bank when she was in Shi City and instead worked with me alone. It turns out that she is at this level.
"Don't worry, I will let your family be the direct person in charge of my He Group in Southeast Asia. I can assure you that no one in Southeast Asia dares to take advantage of them." He Man said domineeringly.
At this moment, I saw a side of her that I had never seen before.
"I'm sorry, Sister Man, I just care about my family too much. I lost them when I was young, so I don't want them to get hurt." My eyes turned red.
Seeing this, He Man hugged me and said, "It's not convenient for me to meddle in your clan's affairs, but once they become the head of my He family, even if your clan leader comes, he can't take them away as long as I don't let him go."
I nodded.
He Man let me go.
"Then let this little Thunder and Fire Bead be given to Sister Man as my apology just now. That should be fine, right?" I said.
Sister Man smiled and said, "To be honest, I really like this bead. I fell in love with it at first sight."
"Of course, this bead is not only a talisman, but also a talisman to ward off evil spirits. Ordinary ghosts dare not approach it." I said with a little pride.
I do feel a great sense of satisfaction from making this little thunder and fire bead. I found that I am quite suitable for making magical instruments. I often have sudden inspirations and make something unique.
