Chapter 7: Purple Talisman
All the onlookers had left, and only Butler Zhang and Jiang Chu were left in the living room.
Just now, Butler Zhang was very cooperative. Jiang Chu saw that he was blessed with great fortune and had a hint of golden light, and was a good man with great merits, so he told him a fortune.
Jiang Chu: "Butler Zhang, please go home before July 15th."
Butler Zhang was stunned for a moment: "Is there something you want me to do?"
Jiang Chu did not explain, but only said: "A son wishes to support his parents, but they are no longer around."
A smart person will understand after a reminder.
Butler Zhang was stunned. When he wanted to ask more, Jiang Chu had already gone upstairs.
He hadn't been home for two years and had planned to go back at the end of this year, but Jiang Chu's words reminded him that his mother might not have much time left to wait for him to come home.
Jiang Chu’s reminder was correct. His mother’s health was indeed getting worse year by year. She had gone out to work just to earn more money to improve the family’s life.
Before leaving, he wore the new clothes that his mother had made in three days under the light, carried the cloth bag that his wife had sewn by hand, and set out on the journey with all the family savings.
His wife and children were brought over as soon as he settled down, but his mother could not leave the land and stayed in her hometown.
Over the years, regardless of whether he needed it or not, his mother insisted on having people bring things to him.
But he was very confused. How did Jiang Chu know?
No one in the Fu family should know that my mother is ill.
This was of course calculated by Jiang Chu. She saw from Butler Zhang's face that his parents' palaces were dark, which was a sign that a relative was about to die.
According to the calculation, he will pass away on July 15th.
When Butler Zhang received the news, his mother had already been buried for three days. Not even being able to see her for the last time became an eternal pain in his heart.
Jiang Chu returned to the room and took out the talisman paper from the space. He used the melon seeds he picked up downstairs to set up a formation to calculate the good and bad luck of the night.
Fu Ciyan's bloody disaster is about to come true tonight, she has to go and keep an eye on it, otherwise that kid will lose his life.
Although her strength is only one tenth of what it was now, ordinary Taoist priests and evil spirits cannot hurt her.
The result is good luck, which means there is no worry about life and there will be opportunities.
Jiang Chu did this divination just to be on the safe side, and also to calculate when he could recover his original strength.
The hexagram of restoring strength allowed her to let nature take its course.
These are the four words Jiang Chu hates the most. The last time she calculated that she should let things take their course, she was forced to endure the tribulation. Why is it happening again this time?
Jiang Chu angrily ate all the melon seeds used for fortune-telling!
After eating the melon seeds, she started drawing talismans.
This time she painted with a pen instead of her hands. She had been in the store before just to hide her strength, otherwise it would be too conspicuous and might bring about fatal disaster.
Although the talisman pen is not as high-level as the one she had in her previous life, after being refined by Jiang Chu's spiritual energy, it can be considered a spiritual weapon.
Dip a little cinnabar, inject spiritual power, and the strokes drawn with the cinnabar will have a strong golden color.
Spiritual energy gathered towards Jiang Chu, and thunder rumbled in the sky.
Jiang Chu seemed unaware and finished the painting in one go.
When the pen tip was raised, the rune turned completely golden, and the yellow rune paper was dyed purple.
Jiang Chu sighed: "My strength is limited and I can only draw purple talismans, but it will work."
If other Taoists heard this, they would probably scold Jiang Chu to death.
In their eyes, the purple talisman is a legendary talisman, and they actually say they will just make do with it?
Dark clouds are gathering in the sky and a storm is about to come.
Listening to the thunder in the sky, Jiang Chu sighed, "I still have a few more talismans. I'll strike them all together after I finish drawing them."
Every purple talisman must undergo the tempering of thunder tribulation before it can be considered truly complete. Ordinary talismans do not need this. Only heaven-defying things like purple talismans and gold talismans need to undergo thunder tribulation.
It goes without saying who Jiang Chu was talking to.
The sound of thunder from above grew louder, as if it was dissatisfied with Jiang Chu's meddling in his affairs.
Jiang Chu threw another purple talisman in his backhand, and Tianlei completely shut up.
He still knows whether to chop it all at once or in several times.
The sound of thunder became much quieter, and it was quietly waiting for Jiang Chu to draw the talisman.
Jiang Chu quickly drew two more purple talismans. Drawing quickly does not mean less consumption.
This body was too weak and its strength was far less than before. Once these four purple talismans were drawn, almost all of his mental and physical strength was drained away, leaving only a trace of spiritual power.
But she was very happy, because these five were all thunder talismans with extremely strong attack power, which could save her life at critical moments.
This was only the first day. First, there was Tao Wan's jade Buddha, then the 79-transfer formation, and finally the Mu family who were set up by someone. She had to go and rescue Fu Ciyan later in the evening.
She didn’t use the donkeys in the production team like this!
Qianqian complained a few words, and the thunder above her head became louder.
Jiang Chu used his remaining spiritual power to draw a teleportation talisman and teleported thousands of miles away to survive the tribulation.
It was afternoon and the Fu brothers and sisters hurried back.
Fu Ciyan gasped: "Why did it thunder so suddenly? It was so loud. I was scared to death."
Fu Qingan looked down on him: "You were scared by a thunder. You are so cowardly."
Fu Ciyan was about to retort when Fu Qingan went upstairs with her schoolbag, not giving him a chance at all.
Fu Ciyan was so angry that he jumped up and down, but he couldn't do anything to her. He grabbed the nanny next to him and asked, "Where are the others?"
Nanny: "Madam went out to look for Madam Lin. The young lady came back at noon and has been upstairs ever since."
Fu Ciyan didn't expect Jiang Chu to be so quiet today: "She didn't cause any trouble today, did she?"
The nanny was silent for a moment and said, "It's not really a fuss, it's just that Li Zhao was fired by her."
Fu Ciyan remembered Li Zhao's words. When her elder brother was alive, she would get close to him every day. When her elder brother left, she would get close to him every day.
Sometimes he woke up in the morning and saw Li Zhao lying next to him, which scared him so much that he woke up immediately.
He also told Tao Wan about the situation many times, but Tao Wan said that Li Zhao was too pitiful and that if she was kicked out, she would probably die outside. She didn't do anything excessive and just wanted to show her own value.
Fu Ciyan was just guessing, and without any actual evidence he couldn't fire someone for no reason.
Now that Jiang Chu has fired the man, he is happy to have some peace and quiet. He is finally safe.
Fu Ciyan: "Tell me, how did Li Zhao offend her?"
The nanny was also a gossip lover, and she explained everything that had happened in a short while.
When Fu Ciyan heard that Jiang Chu had pinned Li Zhao down with a stool, his eyes widened. "Jiang Chu's tiny body actually has so much strength!"
"That's right." The nanny handed him a handful of melon seeds. "Li Zhao is tall and strong, and he works hard all year round. His strength is no less than that of many men, but he was subdued by the young lady in just a few moves."
"Later, Li Zhao, unable to see the situation clearly, insulted her. We were all shocked. We usually thought Li Zhao was dishonest and liked to talk bad about people behind their backs, but we didn't expect her to be so brave today."
Fu Ciyan beat his chest and stamped his feet: "Why wasn't I there today? I really want to see it with my own eyes."
The nanny chuckled and kept eating melon seeds.
After eating the melon, Fu Ciyan also thought of the important matter: "Is there anything made of peach wood at home?"
The nanny thought for a moment and handed him the broom: "This one is made of peach wood."
Fu Ciyan hesitated: "Anything else?"
The nanny shook her head. "The rest of the furniture is made of yellow pear wood, and this broom is the only one made of peach wood."
Fu Ciyan could only accept it with tears in his eyes.
He made an appointment with his friends to visit the campus at night today because someone had heard crying in the school at night recently.
They became curious and made an appointment to go to the school tonight to see who was playing tricks.
He wasn't afraid at first, but the thunder today was too strange, making him want to back off.
However, if he didn't go, he would be laughed at to death by them.
After much deliberation, he decided to take the peach wood.
Ghosts are afraid of peach wood swords, so a mop made of peach wood should have the same effect.
