Chapter 127 This Item Had Great Potential
The words ‘little friend’ stunned both Yin Jianghong and Jiang Beiran. The former was surprised that this old fellow had actually opened his eyes and paid attention to a little disciple whose cultivation was only at level five of the qi refining realm, while the latter was upset. His trip to the Sect of Masked Moon this time had truly been a disaster! He was getting the attention from the management level of his sect. How could he still liv a carefree live in the future?
“Sigh, I made a terrible mistake.”
Although Jiang Beiran really wanted to use illness as an excuse to go back home, the option clearly told him to help Yin Jianghong and Guan Shi’an for the investigation. If they could not find any clue, it was very likely that the system would give him options with higher difficulty. “It’s a flash of insight.” Yin Jianghong exhaled happily. He pulled Jiang Beiran and said, “You’re indeed a smart person. No wonder you so good in Go. Do you want to play a game with me at my place? We can discuss the ins and outs of this matter at the same time.”
After saying that, Yin Jianghong looked at angry Guan Shi’an and said, “I’m not trying to poach him. This kid is so smart. If we talk to him more, we might be able to figure this out. Don’t you think so?”
Guan Shi’an stroked his long beard and replied, “You can talk to him, but I have to be there.”
“Why do you have so little confidence in your righteous sect disciple?”
“I’m just worried about you, the devil.”
“Okay, okay, okay. Let’s do it together.” After saying that, Yin Jianghong hooked her arm around Jiang Beiran’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Actually, when I first started cultivating, I could not increase my cultivation for a long time. However, after I fell off a cliff, I accidentally picked up a powerful cultivation technique. Using that cultivation technique, my cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds. Your situation is quite similar to mine, actually…”
“Cough!” Guan Shilan coughed heavily. “What? Don’t you care about this kid’s future, Sect Master Guan?”
“When have I ever said such a thing?”
“Then keep coughing. I just think it’s a pity that such a good talent is wasted. When the time comes, it will be beneficial to the righteous section to nurture him.” “Don’t worry, Cult Master Yin. We will nurture our righteous sect disciples properly.” Guan Shi’an said as he pulled Jiang Beiran to his side.
Jiang Beiran, who was caught in the middle, could only smile. There was nothing he could
do.
“Sigh… forget it. Since I might get another yellow grade magical item, I’ll just endure this period of time.”
After discussing until midnight, Jiang Beiran finally dragged his exhausted body out of Guan Shi’an’s residence.
The plan was not hard to make, and the discussion should have ended sooner. It was because Yin Jianghong would always try to headhunt Jiang Beiran from time to time. Then, Guan Shi’an became worried. He would pull Jiang Beiran to the side to talk to him about a lot of things. Jiang Beiran was exhausted after dealing with the leaders back and forth.
Stretching his back, Jiang Beiran took out the Ruyi Fortune Bucket from his storage ring after making sure there was no one around.
To be honest, Jiang Beiran was still a little surprised that Guan Shi’an would give him a yellow grade magical item. Even though this yellow grade magical item was a little weak, it was still a yellow grade magical item.
After witnessing the auction of the Illusory Spirit Treasure Flag at the auction house, Jiang Beiran was already very clear about the value of this yellow grade magical item in the eyes of the mystic emperor.
However, Guan Shi’an really gave it to him, a disciple at qi refining realm. Moreover, Guan Shi’an did not intend to tell anyone. Or that it was just as Yin Jianghong said, it was a gift out of their conscience. They were really grateful that he had prevented a catastrophe
Looking at the Ruyi Fortune Bucket in his hand, Jiang Beiran suddenly thought of Guan Shi’an’s words. This Ruyi Fortune Bucket was most effective for people who were good at divination. In other words, it was possible that he was too casual in the afternoon, which caused the Ruyi Fortune Bucket to have a weaker effect.
“Hmm… I’ll just try once.” Divination was a matter that was very particular about the sense of ceremony. One’s heart had to be sincere when one prayed, but that was how everyone did. So, if you wanted your prayers to be answered first, you naturally had to find a way to “cut the line”.
And a perfect ceremony could do that.
Therefore, Jiang Beiran quickly returned to the guest house. He looked at Mo Xia who was about to rush towards him with the basin and said, “Put the basin on the side first.”
Mo Xia nodded after listening and placed the basin on the cabinet next to him. Then, he picked up the Go board and held it in his arms. He looked at Jiang Beiran with anticipation.
“I have something to do. You should go for a walk. Come back here after two hours.”
When Mo Xia heard that he was going to be chased out of the door again, he felt he had been struck by lightning. He stood there like a statue.
“When you come back, I can play two games with you.”
“Yes!” After saying that, Mo Xia held the Go board and rushed out. Just as he was about to close the door, he suddenly asked in a pleading tone, “If I go for another hour, can you play three games with me?”
After hearing that, Jiang Beiran couldn’t help but smile and nodded. “Yes.” “That’s great! I really love walking!” After saying that, Mo Xia closed the door and ran downstairs.
“Sigh… I didn’t make up my mind.”
Jiang Beiran was now certain that he wanted to accept Mo Xia as his underling, so he wanted to cultivate a superior-subordinate relationship with him first. He wanted to slowly familiarize himself with Mo Xia. Mo Xia’s pitiful appearance made Jiang Beiran hard to reject his bargaining “There’s no rush anyway. I’ll teach him slowly in the future.’
After thinking about it, Jiang Beiran began to prepare for the fortune-telling. Since he wanted the yellow grade magical item to achieve the best effect, he had to prepare a perfect prayer ceremony. First, Jiang Beiran lit a candle, which meant that the silver shadow would shine brightly in the sky, illuminating the silver rainbow. He piously offered the candle.
Then, Jiang Beiran took out a handful of incense from his storage ring. This incense was specially requested by Jiang Beiran from the Sect of Tranquil Heart. Because the prayers of the Sect of Tranquil Heart were particularly efficacious, and its incense had always been very popular.
In addition, his incense was the most efficacious incense in the Sect of Tranquil Heart.
When offering the incense, three sticks formed one column, which meant “Three treasures incense”. It was placed on the candle and lit.
In addition, there was also a particular way of offering incense. One had to use the left hand to offer incense. Because in divination, the left hand was the lucky hand, and the right hand was the unlucky hand.
Next, the first incense was inserted in the middle of the furnace, then another incense was inserted on the left, and the third was inserted on the right.
The three incense sticks had to be separated by an inch, representing the heart of the believer.
Then, he spent another few minutes to finish the other steps. Jiang Beiran slowly knelt on the futon and relaxed his body. This was because the most taboo thing in drawing fortune stick was to make the process very tense or rushed, he had to calm his mind first. Only when his heart was as still as water could he shake the bucket.
as
Kacha, kacha, kacha.
After he was ready, he shook the bucket three times in a row. At the same time, he prayed in his heart, “All mighty heaven, please bless me to turn misfortune into luck. Give me a defensive treasure.’ After the third shake, a stick that was emitting brown light fell out. Just like the golden stick that Guan Shi’an had drawn, this brown stick also floated in the air.
However, Jiang Beiran wasn’t in a hurry to get the stick. Instead, he picked up a pair of moon blocks on the table and threw them up.
The first time, there was one yin and one yang.
The second time, there was one yin and one yang.
The third time, there was still one yin and one yang. “It worked.” Jiang Beiran was really flattered.
If he could not get one yin and one yang three times, then he had to draw another stick. If he still could not get it, then it meant that it wasn’t a good day to draw fortune stick.
“Hu…” Jiang Beiran exhaled lightly and reached out to grab the brown stick that suspended in the air. Then, he imitated Sect Master Guan and shouted, “Change!”
In an instant, the brown stick blossomed with a brilliant but not dazzling light. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a leather cloak and rest on Jiang Beiran’s body
Jiang Beiran pulled the cloak in front of him to examine it, and he was surprised.
“Peerless tier!”
The defensive power of this cloak had definitely reached the level of a peerless tier. Moreover, it contained a large amount of spiritual energy. It should have a special miraculous effect.
Although the peerless tier still made Jiang Beiran somewhat disappointed, it was already much better than the scale-armored cloak that Guan Shi’an had conjured. Moreover, he could now certain that Sect Master Guan’s words were correct. The better he was at divination, the better the item he would get.
“If I can prepare a little more complete and have a higher divination point, I might have a chance to get a magical item!’
If it could really be done this way, then the value of this Ruyi Fortune Bucket was definitely not just a low tier yellow grade magical item! Having it was equivalent to having all sorts of yellow grade magical items.
The moment he understood the value of the Ruyi Fortune Bucket, he felt sorry for wanting to ridicule Sect Master Guan in the afternoon.
“He gave me a magical item with great potential!”
However, there was a troublesome restriction. If he encountered an unexpected situation, the opponent wouldn’t give him so much time to finish the ceremony before drawing fortune stick. Therefore, the effect of the Ruyi Fortune Bucket would still be greatly reduced in an unexpected situation.
However, it was not a big problem. This Ruyi Fortune Bucket still received high praise from Jiang Beiran.
“Sect Leader Guan is too generous. He’s a good person. I will definitely not go to the demonic cult!”
The next day, under the organization of Guan Shi’an and Yin Jianghong, everyone from the righteous sects and demonic cults were questioned one by one according to the order given by Jiang Beiran.
During this time, Jiang Beiran reminded Guan Shi’an and Yin Jianghong to keep their mystic sense fully open at all times. It was to prevent the mole or those who were still mixed in the crowd from killing themselves before being captured.
For the powerful mystic master, it was no problem for their mystic sense to cover the entire Sect of Masked Moon. But if they kept doing this, they would still exhausted even if they were mystic masters. So, the two discussed the time and took turns to open their mystic sense.
Jiang Beiran couldn’t help much in interrogating this matter, so he chose to wander around the Sect of Masked Moon to see if he could find anything.
After passing through an arch bridge, Jiang Beiran turned into a small alley.
Soon after, another figure also entered this small alley.
“Eh… where is he?” Kong Qianqian stood in the middle of the alley and looked around for a while, but she didn’t see anyone. “I clearly saw him walk in here.”
“Is he looking for me?” At this moment, Jiang Beiran jumped down from a roof and stood in front of Kong Qianqian.
“I have to say, I’m really not tired of this kind of dramatic entrance.”
