Chapter 49: Wage Increase
Everyone at the scene was shocked, and some even screamed in trembling voices.
"Dead, dead?"
Even Song Yi's face suddenly turned pale and he stood there in a daze. Wang Musen's teammates on the opposite side also changed their expressions and some of them hurried forward to check.
"Brother Wang."
One of the three people sitting there drawing talismans quickly stood up and ran over, throwing an intermediate fire bomb talisman at Song Yi who was in a daze.
Zhou Yadong quickly stepped forward to help, "Senior Brother Song, be careful."
Song Yi finally reacted and quickly responded to the attack with Zhou Yadong.
Lin Xiaoman herself didn't expect that the sleeping talisman would be so effective. She almost forgot about it.
To this day, she still has 100 sleeping talismans in her storage bag.
Of course, the other person was not dead, but was hit by her sleeping charm and fell asleep.
But in just a moment, the cultivator who was hit by the sleeping talisman woke up, so the sleeping talisman can hypnotize a cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining for about five breaths. This amount of time is already very powerful.
Because once you learn this talisman, it is very easy to draw and consumes very little spiritual energy.
Lin Xiaoman quickly started drawing the talisman. On the other side, Song Yi was relieved and ecstatic when he saw the monk wake up.
"Junior Sister Lin, quickly draw the talisman you just drew."
"good."
While Lin Xiaoman was speaking, he had already drawn another sleeping talisman and threw it to Song Yi.
The judges who were watching the competition, especially the white-bearded old man sitting in the middle, couldn't help but stroke their beards and nodded when they saw this, looking at Lin Xiaoman with a smile. He remembered that this girl had learned the sleeping talisman during the competition for new monks in Andu City. He didn't expect that she was practicing this talisman and the effect was quite good.
When the disciples of Tianyan Sect saw Lin Xiaoman throwing another talisman at them, their faces changed slightly. They still didn't know what kind of talisman it was. Moreover, although Senior Brother Wang was fine, he had been unconscious for five breaths, which was a very deadly danger during the battle.
"Back off."
I originally thought that I could easily resolve this competition, but I didn't expect such an accident to happen in the middle.
Wang Musen over there had completely regained consciousness, his face grim. He stood up and stepped forward, "You guys continue drawing the talisman, I'll do it."
After being hit the first time, it was no longer so easy for Song Yi to hit the disciples of Tianyan Sect with the sleeping talisman again, but even if he didn't hit them, he could buy them time.
Song Yi's team lost in the end, of course, but the expressions on their faces were relaxed, especially Song Yi, whose eyes were full of joy. They had held out for the time of an incense stick, and were the first team to hold out for this time so far.
When they got off the stage, Song Yi looked at Lin Xiaoman and said with a smile, "Junior Sister Lin, what kind of talisman did you give me? How come it's so powerful?"
"Yes, yes, Junior Sister Lin, your talisman is amazing. I see that you draw the talisman very easily and succeed very quickly."
Zhang Shanshan was also excited. They had held on for an incense stick, and there were only seven teams left. They still had a chance to win first place.
"It's a sleeping talisman, a very basic talisman that makes people fall asleep easily."
Lin Xiaoman had nothing to hide. Since the talisman was so useful, she thought of selling it for money. However, she had never seen this talisman in the talisman book, and she got it from that senior, so she didn't know if she could sell it for money.
Lin Xiaoman turned to look at the white-bearded old man on the stage, hesitant and tangled in her heart. Should she ask him about this matter? Or, would she have the chance to approach him and ask him?
"Sleeping charm? I've never heard of it."
He Xiu walked over and exclaimed in surprise. Their group had done very well in this competition, and everyone was in a relaxed mood. Regardless of whether they won first place or not, they had already given it their all. Regardless, they would receive the top ten prizes, as well as a prize from the shop for their ranking. If they were lucky enough to take first place, Senior Song would definitely reward them, and when Song Yi entered the Tianyan Sect's outer sect in the future, he would remember their kindness.
After that, they watched the competition between other teams and the Tianyan Sect team with peace of mind. Well, only Lin Xiaoman and the others were at ease. Song Yi was still very nervous, especially when he saw that the team from the Beifang City Talisman Shop had actually lasted for an incense stick of time and was still going on, which was obviously longer than their team's time. Song Yi's face became extremely ugly.
At that moment, Lin Xiaoman and the others looked at Song Yi silently, and they could no longer laugh easily.
Afterwards, another team came from the City Lord's Mansion, and they also lasted for an incense stick of time, which was also longer than theirs.
In the end, the Talisman Shop in Beifang City won the first place, the City Lord's Mansion won the second place, and the Talisman Shop in Dongfang City won the third place. Each of the third place winners received a bottle of Yuanling Pill, a piece of yellow-grade high-level talisman ink, and a yellow-grade high-level talisman pen.
Lin Xiaoman was so happy holding the new reward that she walked with joy. If Song Yi hadn't looked so unhappy, she would have laughed out loud.
She hadn't used the high-level yellow-grade talisman ink and brush yet. She wondered if drawing talismans with it would be easier, and if the success rate would be higher. Would she be able to successfully draw the intermediate-level water arrow talisman soon?
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, the group hurried back to the shop. No matter what, their performance this time was not bad. It could even be said to be the best performance of the talisman shop in Dongfang City in the past ten years. After all, the best they had ever achieved was only third place.
When they returned to the shop and learned that they were third, everyone who should have been happy looked at Song Yi and Senior Song. There was no place for outer disciples for the third place.
Lin Xiaoman hurriedly and silently walked to Li Ling's side. She thought, "Isn't her performance okay this time? Even if Senior Song is angry, he probably won't take his anger out on her, right?" In fact, she felt that everyone had done their best.
Although Senior Song looked very unhappy, he didn't say anything and took Song Yi and Zhou Yadong back to their courtyard.
Lin Xiaoman and the others breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other. Zhang Shanshan walked up to Lin Xiaoman with a smile and said to the shop owner.
"Shopkeeper Wang, this time it was thanks to Junior Sister Lin's sleeping talisman that we caught the Tianyan Sect off guard, so we were able to hold out for so long."
"Okay, okay, thank you all for your hard work. You all performed very well this time. Everyone's wages will be doubled, and each of you will be rewarded 50 spirit stones."
Lin Xiaoman and Zhang Shanshan looked at each other and cheered. Their wages had increased. Her original salary was 600 spirit beads, but now it would be 1,200 spirit beads a month.
After everyone left, Lin Xiaoman was called into the house by Yuan Zheng. "What kind of sleeping charm did you draw today?"
"A talisman that makes people sleep easily, a very basic talisman. I got it when I participated in the last competition and was asked to draw a talisman on the spot."
She recounted the details of the day's competition, and Yuan Zheng nodded. "I see. This talisman is indeed simple. Are you willing to sell it to the shop?"
