Chapter 41 Appeared
For the entire morning, both Lin Xiaoman and Li Ling were busy painting, not even having time to look up and drink a sip of water.
Li Ling wanted to draw more and get more rewards. Yuan Zheng said that if they completed the task on schedule this time, each of them would be rewarded with 30 spirit stones.
Lin Xiaoman wanted to quickly draw the talisman she was about to draw, and then learn new talismans. She wanted to learn the talismans in the talisman book as soon as possible.
The higher the quality of the talisman, the more spirit stones you can sell it for.
Around noon, she received a message from Li Li saying that all the monsters they hunted in the mountains had been sold, and he invited her to have dinner at Xiuzhenlou.
She had seen Xiuzhenlou and knew where it was. It was a place to eat.
"I'm going out for a while at noon."
After saying goodbye to Li Ling, Lin Xiaoman ran out at the appointed time to have a meal at Xiuzhenlou.
Li Li offered to treat her to a meal, so of course she didn't refuse.
Xiuzhenlou has three floors. Li Li asked her to go to the second floor. When she arrived, they were already sitting there waiting.
"Xiaoman, sit down."
Li Qingyue saw Lin Xiaoman coming and stood up to greet her.
"Qingyue, Fellow Daoist Li, Fellow Daoist Hu."
Lin Xiaoman bowed to them and then sat down.
"Hurry up and sit down. We have obtained a total of 1,500 spirit stones from the monsters we hunted this time. According to the proportion we agreed upon, this belongs to you."
Lin Xiaoman's eyes lit up. She took it and saw that there were 400 spirit stones in the bag. She poured them into her own bag.
"Thank you very much, I got a great deal."
"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to hunt so many monsters."
After returning the bag to Li Li, Lin Xiaoman took out a few bags from his own bag and said, "This is the magical rice I grew in my field. Take it back and try it."
She prepared ten kilograms for each of them, and Lu Youling delivered the ten kilograms when she came in the morning.
"Did you grow it yourself?"
"Well, I have a piece of land in the village, and the spiritual rice I harvested this time is pretty good."
"Thank you very much for that."
Lin Xiaoman thought of the talisman that Li Li had ordered from him, "Oh, by the way, it will take a few days to get all the talismans that Daoist Li ordered from me."
"No hurry, no hurry. I don't plan to go out recently."
As they were talking, the dishes they ordered were served.
Looking at the unrecognizable dishes on the table, Lin Xiaoman's eyes widened, "What is this?"
"This is the Golden Skylark, made with ingredients from the second-tier monster Golden Skylark."
Lin Xiaoman opened his mouth in surprise. A second-level monster?
"Brother Li is very generous."
"This chestnut stewed chicken made with the first-level demon beast, the seven-colored pheasant, is absolutely delicious."
Hu Jianghe pointed at the stewed chicken and said, "Don't underestimate it because it's a first-level monster, but the taste is much better than the others."
Lin Xiaoman's eyes lit up. After tasting it, she made up her mind that she would hunt a few more of this first-level monster, the seven-colored pheasant, and she didn't know if she could raise them herself.
After Lin Xiaoman specifically asked Li Li and others, he learned that Mo Qingshan also had colorful pheasants, so he wrote down the approximate range of their appearance.
She currently has no vacation to go hunting in the mountains, so she will first complete the talisman task this month.
After eating and drinking, and saying goodbye to each other, Lin Xiaoman returned to the shop.
In the following days, Lin Xiaoman's life returned to its previous routine.
Every morning she would make porridge at home, then go to the fields to cast Spirit Rain and the Five Elements Technique on the cabbages and radishes, then use spells to catch insects and other things. Then she would go to the market to "work", focusing on drawing Speed Talismans, Fire Bomb Talismans, Water Arrow Talismans, Earth Wall Talismans, and Diamond Talismans. She could now successfully draw at least 50 talismans every day, so she would definitely complete her task within a month. However, was completing the task enough for her? Of course not. She wanted to earn spirit stones, so she had to draw more talismans.
Of course, Lin Xiaoman did not give up practicing every night. However, after reaching the second level of Qi Refining, Lin Xiaoman found that his practice speed had slowed down a lot. Although he felt that he could make progress every day, it felt like he used to feel a little increase in spiritual power after practicing every night, but now he could only feel a half-a-point increase.
Lin Xiaoman has no other choice for the time being, he can only work hard to earn spirit stones and buy an intermediate spirit gathering array to practice as soon as possible. Then the speed of practice will naturally be different.
These days, every time she went home to eat, she would prepare another portion and leave it in the kitchen. The food would basically be eaten, but she never found out what this thing was.
After observing for a while, she found that this guy had no ill will towards her and just gave some things out every day, so Lin Xiaoman simply ignored him.
After half a month, Lin Xiaoman finally drew enough basic talismans required for the task, including water arrow talismans, diamond talismans, and earth wall talismans. Then he concentrated on drawing intermediate speed talismans and intermediate fire bomb talismans.
Lin Xiaoman attached great importance to this matter. If he could draw an intermediate-level talisman, he would have a better chance of escaping or fighting against monsters in the future.
After ten days of hard work, he finally learned the two talismans. Then he hurried to draw, wanting to draw 100 intermediate speed talismans and fire bomb talismans in the remaining five days. However, Lin Xiaoman was unable to complete it, so he had to take the talisman paper and run to Li Ling for help.
"No problem, leave it to me. It's already amazing that you can learn the Intermediate Speed Talisman and the Intermediate Fire Bullet Talisman so quickly."
Li Ling really thought Lin Xiaoman was amazing. It took her a month to learn these two kinds of talismans.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Li. I'll treat you to barbecue someday."
Lin Xiaoman would occasionally bring some homemade dishes to share with Li Ling and Tang Chengchao, and they quite liked them.
Li Ling's smile grew even brighter upon hearing this. "Okay, I'll be waiting for you."
"Okay, how about I bring you spicy diced rabbit and chopped pepper fish head?"
Li Ling's eyes lit up, "Okay!"
Lin Xiaoman never expected that in the end, the one who liked spicy food the most was Li Ling.
With Li Ling's help, Lin Xiaoman felt much more relaxed. For the next few days, she just had to focus on drawing talismans. Although the success rate was only 20%, every talisman she could draw was a good one.
At the end of the month, the two handed in the talismans required for the task and received a reward of 30 spirit stones each, as well as a three-day holiday.
When he got home, Lin Xiaoman did nothing but lay on the bed and wanted to have a good sleep.
The weather is getting colder, and there is a cold wind outside. It is too comfortable to hide in the house and sleep under a warm quilt.
Lin Xiaoman plans to take a break and have a good sleep today. She can talk about cultivation tomorrow.
Holding the soft quilt, Lin Xiaoman fell asleep in a short while. She didn't notice that after she fell asleep, the window was opened, and a pure white little animal came in and jumped silently onto Lin Xiaoman's bed. It turned around and stared at Lin Xiaoman's face. There was a flash of doubt in its round eyes, and it moved back and forth between Lin Xiaoman's face and the door.
