Chapter 32: Talisman Master

Lin Chongchang fumed with rage, never expecting that his daughter would turn out to be totally besotted. She’d been played around for a fool, but she even covered up for Fan Ming repeatedly, and because of her connivance, it almost caused a catastrophe and killed Haoxing. He seemed utterly disappointed as he spoke, “Lin Jingshi, how did my daughter, whom I raised wholeheartedly, turn out like this?”

“Dad, y-you know?” Lin Jingshi panicked. “It’s all because of that mistress who took advantage of my quarrel with Fan Ming and seduced him. In fact, it’s all my fault for having a bad temper, and Fan Ming wouldn’t do such a stupid thing either. Dad, don’t worry. He broke it off with that mistress long ago and will return to the family. Besides, I’m doing it for Xingxing, for our family. He can’t live without his dad.”

Lin Chongchang sighed deeply, turned his head and closed his eyes, not even bothering to look at her. Then, he pointed to the door and blurted out, “Fine, good going, Lin Jingshi! Go spend the rest of your life with the accomplice who hurt your son, and I’ll pretend I never had a daughter like you!” He instructed the butler nearby to kick her out, turned his back, and ignored her.

Lin Jingshi was appalled at once and hurriedly asked, “Dad, what do you mean? What accomplice?” Eventually, she was thrown out without clarifying anything.

In a small villa in Lanting Bipo Park.

“Zhenbai, are you feeling better?” Zhu Bocheng asked. Yesterday, Qi Zhenbai took medicine according to that prescription and suddenly passed out, scaring Zhu Bocheng’s soul away. He thought something was wrong with the prescription until the speechless Dr. Li informed him that Qi Zhenbai was asleep. Only then did he let out a small sigh of relief.

Qi Zhenbai nodded slightly, lifted the covers, pulled the curtains open of the floor-to-ceiling windows, craned his neck, and stretched his muscles languidly. He hadn’t slept so soundly until dawn in a long time, and he felt so refreshed.

Seeing Qi Zhenbai like this, Zhu Bocheng finally put his mind to rest and said happily, “I didn’t expect that this prescription would really be somewhat effective. You might get over your cold ailment in a few days.”

Dr. Li, who entered just in time to hear Zhu Bocheng’s assumption, immediately refuted, “This prescription is indeed good. It can relieve Young Master Qi’s cold ailment, but curing the root cause might be a bit difficult. By the way, didn’t you say that this prescription is from a peerless doctor? Can you ask if he can cure you once and for all?” Speaking of this so-called peerless doctor, Dr. Li’s eyes glowed in an instant.

Zhu Bocheng’s mouth twitched. This peerless doctor was actually something he said in jest. But when he showed the prescription to Dr. Li, he didn’t expect him to constantly praise the ingenuity of the prescription, and ask breathlessly who the expert was who prescribed it. It really shocked him, but to think that a little girl actually gave this prescription, Zhu Bocheng still found it inconceivable. Where did that little girl get the prescription? Or were there experts in her family?

Zhu Bocheng shook his head and knitted his eyebrows, chagrined. “Had I known where she was, I’d have gone to ask her in the morning. The problem is, I don’t know where she is.” He and Zhenbai didn’t take her seriously in the first place, so naturally, they didn’t take her contact details. Where could they find her whereabouts? Zhu Bocheng slapped his forehead and really wanted to curse his pig’s brain.

Dr. Li was regretful. “That’s troublesome. The prescription is most effective at first, more times than not, but I’m afraid it still can’t contain the outbreak of your cold.”

“We’ll cross that bridge when we get there, so don’t worry too much about it.” Qi Zhenbai slightly parted his sultry red lips indifferently, relaxed as if the topic had nothing to do with him. He had been wracked by cold ailment since childhood, and was once told by a Master that he wouldn’t live past 30. His family had hired many doctors and masters and they’d barely been able to delay the onset of his cold ailment, so the years of torture had trained his rock-solid will to accept the worst and face death with ease. He didn’t want to get his hopes up for anything; the more he hoped, the greater the disappointment. And then although the prescription was from the little girl, Qi Zhenbai naturally didn’t think that she had prescribed it herself. Maybe there was indeed an expert in her family, but curing him would be difficult and unlikely! Why bother!

Hearing him say so, Zhu Bocheng and Dr. Li sighed in silence.

Ringggg!?

Zhu Bocheng took a look at the phone screen and picked up the call. “Hey, what’s the matter Yuanlin? Yes, Perfected Zhang from Longhu Mountain is arriving today? What? You’re coming over? What are you going to do here?” Zhu Bocheng became even more baffled.

“What’s wrong?” Qi Zhenbai asked at Zhu Bocheng’s inquiry.

“He said that he’d already found Elder Lin’s grandson, then if Perfected Zhang arrives, he asked me to give him a call to let him know.” Zhu Bocheng was bemused. “Didn’t he believe in these? Why was he asking about Perfected Zhang all of a sudden?”

Qi Zhenbai mused for a moment and raised his slender eyes. “It may have something to do with this search case, maybe he needed to identify some kind of magic weapon.”

“How’s that possible? He’s as stubborn as an old geezer. If he comes to appraise a magic weapon, I’ll rip my head off and use it as a stool for you guys.” Zhu Bocheng rolled his eyes.

Feng Yuanlin hurried over as soon as he received a call from Zhu Bocheng.

“Perfected Zhang, can you help me take a look at this talisman?” Feng Yuanlin exchanged a few pleasantries with Perfected Zhang, and then directly cut to the chase. The moment Feng Yuanlin spoke, he felt like the air suddenly stilled. Zhu Bocheng looked at him with a pair of grumbling eyes and a flushed face.?What’s with this man’s sudden change of character? A cop in perfectly good condition, isn’t promoting science, but believing in something feudalistic?

Perfected Zhang and his disciple had clearly heard of Zhu Bocheng’s ‘lofty remarks’ moments ago, so everyone exchanged looks again and smiled; even Qi Zhenbai smiled meaningfully.

Feng Yuanlin noticed them smiling bizarrely, and noticed Zhu Bocheng’s dry red face. As childhood friends who grew up together, naturally he knew his true colors. He instantly guessed that this blockhead, Zhu Bocheng, must have said something stupid before he arrived.

“You wouldn’t have said that if I came to find Perfected Zhang to appraise a magic weapon, you’d do something, right?” Feng Yuanlin also laughed. He would have brushed it off if it were someone else, but facing Zhu Bocheng, he wouldn’t miss a chance to taunt him.

“He said that if you ask Perfected Zhang for an appraisal, he’ll rip his head off and use it as a stool for everyone.” Dr. Li laughed.

Zhu Bocheng glared at Dr. Li and gritted his teeth.?It’s just a joke. Is there any need to be so serious?

“Forget it. If you wring it down, it’d only be used as a football.” Feng Yuanlin scoffed at him before converging his emotions and continuing to ask, “Perfected Zhang Real, may I know what you make out of it?”

After examining the talisman carefully, Perfected Zhang was astonished and said, “Although the arrays on this talisman is a bit strange, it’s abundant in spirit qi and was done in one go. Is this a Talisman Master’s handiwork?”

“Perfected Zhang, you mean the person who drew this talisman is powerful?” Feng Yuanlin inquired.

Perfected Zhang nodded, confused. “Doesn’t Young Master Feng know? I haven’t seen many talismans of this type, but I can still feel the spirit qi fluctuations that filled it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to tell. In other respects, I dare not say, but this person should be quite accomplished in talismans. In the entire country of China, it’s probably hard to find many such Talisman Masters.”

Zhu Bocheng, Qi Zhenbai and the others were shocked. They’d seen what Perfected Zhang from Longhu Mountain could do, but even he praised it. They thought this talisman might not have been real. It turned out to be extremely good.

“F*ck, Feng Yuanlin, when did you meet such a Talisman Master?” Zhu Bocheng was amazed.

Feng Yuanlin shook his head helplessly. “How would I know? Do you remember what I told you? This Talisman Master saved Elder Lin’s grandson from the kidnapping, but she didn’t show up. She just stuck talismans on the two kidnappers, and they turned themselves in.”

“Holy sh*t, that’s magical! When did such a character exist in Fuzhou?” Zhu Bocheng was aware that those masters were hardly ever easy to tackle. Many of them were arrogant, with varying natures and personalities. Anyway, they were all impossible. Perfected Zhang was considered a good-tempered expert.

Perfected Zhang just felt that Feng Yuanlin didn’t seem to know this Master. He thought it was the Master he had paid a high price to bring back. He was going to ask for an introduction, but Feng Yuanlin hadn’t even met the person. Now that he heard Feng Yuanlin’s account and knew the function of the talisman, he was even more amazed. He only made out the spirit qi of the talisman, but never considered that the talisman could have such functions. Even the most powerful Talisman Master on their Longhu Mountain wasn’t capable of this.

“Yuanlin, then you guys should buy more of these talismans in the future, then you’d be able to solve cases at will.” Zhu Bocheng was struck with the clever idea, while Feng Yuanlin’s tiger eyes burned radiantly as he looked at Perfected Zhang.

Perfected Zhang smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly. “Not to mention the abundance of spirit qi on this talisman, few powerful and deep-seated Celestial Masters can gather this. This type of talisman is rare even to me and extraordinarily nonmainstream. I’d like to ask Young Master Feng if we could take this talisman back and study it.”

Naturally, Feng Yuanlin agreed to his request. Deep inside, he clicked his tongue in wonder. It seemed that they still underestimated that Master. Elder Lin’s grandson was truly blessed for having run into such a rare Master even when kidnapped.

“Perfected Zhang, can you spare some time to see Elder Lin’s grandson?” Qi Zhenbai asked.

“Of course, I’d give Young Master Qi this face.” Perfected Zhang smiled sage-like and promised to do so.

After Perfected Zhang left, Zhu Bocheng lamented, “If I had asked, Perfected Zhang probably wouldn’t have given a damn about me. Zhenbai’s face is still big!”

Qi Zhenbai shook his head, a reserved smile hanging from the corner of his mouth. “He was giving me face there, and wanting to ask Elder Lin’s grandson something.” Qi Zhenbai thought to himself that he might have some stature towards mortals, but he didn’t think he had that kind of prestige towards the Celestial Master circle.

In fact, he was undervaluing himself. If Chi Shuyan had heard him, her head would have fallen off.

Qi Zhenbai’s little nudge instantly enlightened Zhu Bocheng. He too noticed that Perfected Zhang seemed a bit interested in that Talisman Master.
