Chapter 28 Harvest
Chapter 28 Harvest
Before Yan Jun's life force had completely dissipated, Du Jianyuan reached out and grabbed Qin Mo's slender waist, quickly hiding behind a tree and silently observing the surrounding situation.
After a long time, everything in the dense forest remained the same, unchanged.
Du Jianyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Mo thought something had happened and held her breath, afraid to move. Feeling her waist loosen, she cautiously said:
"Master... has something happened?"
"no."
Du Jianyuan shook his head, slowly walked out, and smiled:
"I'm just worried that Yan Jun might have some family trickery involving connecting life tokens..."
"Now it seems that either the Yan family doesn't care about this person's life or death, or they don't have such mysterious methods... neither you nor I need to worry about being exposed and having our faces exposed, and people coming to seek revenge."
"Our master is far too cautious!"
Qin Mo sighed, her gaze falling on the gradually cooling corpse on the ground. The hatred in her eyes remained undiminished, and she gritted her teeth, saying:
"Killing him like this is far too lenient!"
If she could, she would even like to tear this thief to pieces and torture him to death, only then could she slightly relieve some of the hatred in her heart!
Then, she took off the two storage bags, took out the talisman pen, and planned to draw a fierce fire talisman on Yan Jun's corpse, turning all his flesh and blood essence into the power of the talisman.
Du Jianyuan raised his hand to stop her, saying:
"His flesh and bones are as hard as iron; it would be a waste to use him only as a talisman... You should learn the art of puppet making; perhaps you can turn him into a mid-grade puppet and make the most of him."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mo was taken aback for a moment, and then a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
If this corpse is turned into a mid-grade puppet, then in the future, when encountering some dangerous situations, Du Jianyuan might only sell the puppet, not her.
"Yes, Master!"
Qin Mo was also a cautious person, so she burned the skin off the corpse to prevent it from being recognized as Yan Jun.
Du Jianyuan nodded slightly, indicating his approval of her approach, and used some cleaning talismans to erase the traces of sword energy around him.
……
Cave No. 3, Class A.
After returning safely and smoothly, Du Jianyuan felt a little more at ease.
Once Yan Jun dies, he will no longer be a threat after he finishes absorbing the Qi, and his life will be easier afterward.
Although it is unknown when Ling Yue will return, as long as he breaks through to the fourth level of Qi Refining and demonstrates a mid-grade talisman technique, he will be directly under the command of the Talisman Room Manager, rather than a servant.
"I just hope nothing goes wrong during the next energy gathering..."
Du Jianyuan sighed inwardly. Deep down, he had always been wary of the matter of the Yin fetus, but he simply didn't have the ability to inquire about more related matters.
However, as long as one's cultivation level is continuously improved, there will eventually be a way to solve this problem.
Then, Du Jianyuan turned his gaze to Yan Jun's two storage bags and noticed that there was something wrong with one of them, so he frowned slightly.
"The magical imprint hasn't faded yet... Could that bastard Yan Jun have left something hidden inside?"
Normally, when the owner dies, the magical imprint on the storage bag will slowly dissipate; this was the case with all the storage bags he had obtained before.
However, he also knew that some of the more valuable storage bags contained small arrays.
If a stranger forcibly opens it, the internal mechanisms will immediately activate and lock onto the other party's magic to hunt them down, which is extremely brutal.
Upon hearing this, Qin Mo noticed it as well, and after careful consideration, she said:
"I'll investigate this matter later and see if there's a solution."
"No need, I have a way to solve this."
Du Jianyuan smiled, first untied the storage bag without any magical markings, and upon closer inspection, his expression turned to surprise:
"Wow! Yan Jun is quite capable, managing to embezzle so many spirit stones..."
There are a full 186 spirit stones inside!
He couldn't help but sigh that the position of head of the yamen was incredibly lucrative, and it was no wonder that one needed connections and a powerful background to get it.
Qin Mo, standing to the side, also widened her eyes; it was the first time she had ever seen so many spirit stones!
"In this way, the master will also have the resources for the mid-stage Qi Refining."
Qin Mo smiled, showing no intention of taking a share of the profits.
Now that she is a servant, as long as she always considers things from Du Jianyuan's perspective, he will certainly not skimp on her supplies.
Having another devoted person around to help with things is always more convenient.
"Let's not be too happy yet. At least the spiritual energy hasn't been fully extracted, and we don't know when Ling Yue will return..."
Du Jianyuan carefully put away the spirit stones, sighed softly, and then said:
"We'll be reporting back in a few days. Then we'll go to the talisman room together and see who has taken over Yan Jun's position."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mo nodded solemnly, but looking at that well-defined profile, she felt a little more at ease.
Du Jianyuan noticed her restless thoughts, glanced at her sideways without saying anything, picked up the storage bag and headed towards Cave No. 4.
Since Qin Mo became his servant, this cave dwelling has been rarely inhabited.
Du Jianyuan went directly to the door of the meditation room, tossed his storage bag inside, and, with three mid-grade cleansing talismans tucked between his fingers, said:
"Hide behind the door and use your magic to slowly erase the marks from the storage bag."
"..."
At this moment, Qin Mo knew exactly what he meant. Her eyes held a hint of resentment, but she had no choice but to obediently comply.
Du Jianyuan didn't care what she was thinking; he just stared intently at the storage bag.
If even a cleaning talisman can't erase something, then he can only make Qin Mo suffer a bit.
As the magical imprint was gradually erased, the bag opened, and a cloud of bluish-black mist suddenly shot out, rushing towards the flow of magical energy.
Qin Mo's expression changed drastically. Her evil fire ignited almost simultaneously, but it couldn't extinguish the dark blue-green mist at all!
Without hesitation, Du Jianyuan threw out the two mid-grade cleansing talismans in his hand and took a step back.
"Hiss hiss hiss..."
Fortunately, thanks to the cleansing talisman, the dark blue-green mist was gradually dissipated and did not harm Qin Mo.
"As expected, the purifying power within the cleansing talisman can still erase some of the hidden attacks."
Du Jianyuan smiled, but did not rush into the quiet room.
Qin Mo's chest heaved slightly. Realizing that everything was alright, she breathed a small sigh of relief and said with a hint of resentment:
"Would you like me to retrieve the storage bag now, Master?"
"No rush, use your magic to activate it a few more times, and wait for half an hour."
Du Jianyuan shook his head. If Qin Mo were to get hurt, no one would be able to draw the talisman for him.
Time passed little by little.
After the storage bag remained still, Qin Mo took it out.
Upon opening it, there were only about thirty spirit stones, four mid-grade explosive talismans, some tea and wine, and two jade slips inside.
Du Jianyuan scanned the two jade slips with his spiritual sense; they were titled "The Method of Body Tempering with Blade" and "The Art of Puppets and Talismans."
The former uses swords and blades to temper their bodies, and when the metal and iron energies intertwine within their bodies, they can consume the internal organs of others to nourish themselves.
"This saves us the trouble of buying spirit stones for puppetry techniques; there just happens to be one here."
Du Jianyuan smiled and realized that these two items were of little use to him, so he gave them both to Qin Mo.
"Thank you for the gift, Master!"
Qin Mo's eyes lit up as she realized that this "Puppet Talisman Control Technique" was no ordinary puppet technique. Her resentment vanished instantly, and she smiled brightly, saying:
"If there is anything this servant does not understand, I hope that my master will patiently guide me."
"Um."
……
a few days later.
Fu Fang.
Du Jianyuan and Qin Mo came together to hand over the token.
Upon seeing a graceful figure in a moon-colored robe sitting in the workshop's main hall, the two men were taken aback and stepped forward to bow respectfully.
"Greetings, Lord Shen."
