My Scales Can Make Equivalent Exchange-Chapter 36 - Eating Sugar to Cure Disease

······

After the exchange was complete, Wang Zijia once again withdrew into the Sea of Consciousness, pulling out his newly acquired talisman-making tools.

He rummaged through his storage bag and found a piece of earth-based spiritual material. This was a liquid, similar to asphalt, in a dirt-yellow shade. Combining it with a little clear liquor, he carefully crafted it into talisman ink using the sealing spiritual plate.

Then he picked up the talisman pen. Amidst the flickering spiritual light, he dipped the pen into the ink.

Right after that, he invoked his Rune Perception Technique. Runes swirled in his eyes, and the Earth Spear Spirit Arrow Technique filled his mind. An odd rune appeared before him.

Wang Zijia began to mark out this rune.

The Rune Perception ability let him see the foundational form of the rune of other spells, which he could then use in talisman-making to etch it onto talisman paper, forming a rune circuit.

Once that was done, anyone could use the talisman by infusing it with mana, even if they did not know the spell themselves.

To put it simply, casting a spell required mana to form the spell through a “template”. A normal spell cast was like obtaining this “template”.

A talisman, on the other hand, was like an external “template”. All one had to do was simply infuse it with mana directly.

And creating a talisman was about externalizing this “template” onto talisman paper. This required first being able to see the template. That was where the effect of Rune Perception Technique came in.

As Wang Zijia began to outline the rune, it slowly took shape on the talisman paper. Just when it was about to be completed, however, it suddenly became disorderly.

“Pop!”

With a light sound, the spiritual light dispersed. The rune on the talisman paper blurred, ruining the card’s spirituality and causing it to become a chaotic mess.

Despite having a mastery of the spell to the extent of sixty percent, and these talisman-making tools giving close to seventy percent probability, it still ended in failure.

Perhaps, this failure could be attributed to the nerves of the first attempt.

Without wasting time, Wang Zijia began drawing again. Between the dragon and snake-like strokes of the pen, the fundamental rune of the Earth Spear Spirit Arrow technique was inscribed onto the talisman paper.

With the last flicker of light, the spiritual light on the card converged, and a talisman card was presented before him.

He spent a long time admiring the card, his face full of joy, before he bent down and started making another one.

The consumption of mana was less than that of making talisman cards, but it was much more time-consuming. In two hours, he could only make about twenty, of which only fifteen were successful.

The cost of one blank talisman paper plus talisman ink was half a magic coin.

A First Grade low-level talisman could be sold for one magic coin, mid-level ones for two magic coins, advanced ones for four magic coins, excluding special cases.

The Earth Spear Spirit Arrow Talisman fell into the category of a mid-level talisman, selling at two magic coins each.

By this calculation, ten pieces had a cost of five magic money, with about seven succeeding, making a total of fourteen magic money.

If I pushed myself harder every day and worked overtime for five hours, I could earn at least twenty magic money!

Compared to this, even the rune perception I just mastered, my daily profit already slightly exceeded the manufacturing of Great Mastery talisman cards.

If I converted this money into elixirs, in two or three days I could accumulate a year’s worth of Dao cultivation, my cultivation would practically skyrocket!

Of course, the accounting definitely couldn’t be this straightforward, after all, this wasn’t directly recovered by the sect, I needed to consider how many I could make and sell daily.

But even after considering all the circumstances, on average I could make over ten magic money a day, that was certain.

So, I truly had found a way to make a fortune!

After a night of testing, I could confirm that I could now stably do the talisman-making business.

Therefore, Wang Zijia started working tirelessly again, continuously making Earth Spear Spirit Arrow Technique Talismans, in fact, the profit from making advanced Clay Shape-Shifting Stealth Technique should be slightly higher.

But the Earth Spear Spirit Arrow Technique was a common spell, whereas this Clay Shape-Shifting Stealth Technique was a less common spell, it was too easy to trace back to him, after all, Luo Qing had seen him cast it with his own eyes.

…

“Good morning, Auntie Wang!”

“Good morning, Auntie Wang!”

“Good morning, young master, and good morning Miss Bai Qian!”

Early the next morning, as soon as Auntie Wang entered the courtyard, she saw two people, one big and one small, under the peach tree in the courtyard, greeting the morning sun with Tai Chi Fist.

Bai Qian, who only had one and a half arms, was seriously focusing with an intense expression on her face.

She was still constantly chewing something in her mouth, and in her left hand, she held onto a half piece of dried meat.

“Miss, your eyes?” Wang Dan, who was slow to realize, entered the kitchen and saw Bai Qian, who had stopped practicing her fists and was eating dried meat while entering the kitchen to help, asked with astonishment.

“The young master healed me last night and let me gain weight in order to treat my other injuries.” Bai Qian answered while chewing the dried meat with effort.

With a pair of clear big eyes, although she still looked ugly, at least she didn’t look like a ferocious spirit anymore.

“Oh!” Auntie Wang no longer expressed surprise upon hearing this, after all, she knew that Wang Zijia was a cultivator, an Immortal.

After both the big and the small had prepared the meal, Wang Zijia slowly finished his work.

While eating, Wang Zijia glanced at Bai Qian, who was eagerly chewing her dried meat with porridge, paused for a moment, and said to Wang Dan, “Auntie Wang, when you are free during the day, take Bai Qian out to buy some candies and sweet pastries.”

“Mister, I am not greedy…” as soon as Bai Qian heard this, she wanted to say something.

“The effect of meat cannot compare to that of sugar, sugar is the food closest to pure energy. Your digestive system at this age is the same. If you want to gain weight and recover quickly, eating sugar should be the fastest way.” Wang Zijia interrupted her before she could finish.

“Oh!” Bai Qian did not quite understand what Wang Zijia was saying, but she understood the meaning, eating sugar was for her treatment.

What kind of cultivation does the young master have exactly? Why can’t daddy use sugar for treatment when he is sick, just like her?

“Alright, I will come to get Miss Bai after I finish work at noon!” Auntie Wang did not understand what the two were talking about, but she did understand the instructions, so she nodded in response.

After settling things, the trio stopped talking. After finishing the meal, Auntie Wang and Bai Qian cleaned up. Auntie Wang then clocked out and left.

Bai Qian continued practicing her Tai Chi Fist in the courtyard while eagerly eating her dried meat, concentrating deeply, looking rather awkward and cute.

Before leaving, Wang Zijia looked at her and said, “That’s enough, don’t eat until you can’t digest it. If you get diarrhea, you will lose even more weight!”

“I got it!” Bai Qian replied.

Seeing this, Wang Zijia said nothing more and turned to go to work.
