Nine Mountains Sect, dock.

Zheng Fa is sending Han Qi three people off.

Senior Sister Zhang is probably the type of leader who acts vigorously and resolutely. Jieyin Ship was ready in just a few days.

Because it was their first attempt, Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang were cautious - they only sent out one ship, and they only planned to go to a few nearby sects and Marketplace, which would take about half a month to go back and forth.

In addition to the people from Senior Sister Zhang and several senior brothers from Marketplace, there were also three people from Han Qi specially arranged by Zheng Fa.

The three Han Qi were not put in by Zheng Fa in order to fight for power, but after two days of discussion with Senior Sister Zhang, he refined his previous idea - now there are many Talisman in those empty guest rooms, all of which were collected from Marketplace.

The current model of Jieyin Ship is to go there pretending to be Talisman and bring customers back, trying not to waste transportation capacity.

Han Qi The three of them are not very good at cultivation, but they do have some business acumen. Zheng Fa intends to let them help sell goods.

"Senior Brother Han, this is just a try, don't put too much psychological pressure on you." Zheng Fa saw that Han Qi's expression was obviously very nervous, so he comforted him.

"Junior brother..." Han Qi smiled bitterly, "Such a big sum of money Talisman is under my control. If something goes wrong..."

Senior Sister Zhang was very courageous. He recommended the three of Han Qi. Senior Sister Zhang actually handed over the talisman on the ship to Han Qi directly. He decided how to sell it and how much to sell it for.

Han Qi has always been at the bottom of the Nine Mountains Sect. How could he ever bear such a big responsibility?

It is normal to worry about gains and losses.

Zheng Fa patted his shoulder, thought for a while and said, "As long as you work hard, no one can do anything to you. I am above you, and Senior Sister Zhang is above me."

Han Qi nodded when he heard this, and the uneasiness on his face became a little less.

The boat gradually rose from the water, and Han Qi watched Zheng Fa's figure on the dock getting smaller and smaller, as if watching him go away.

He turned around and walked towards the cabin with the two junior brothers beside him.

While going upstairs, the three of them met two senior brothers.

These two people used to patrol Marketplace, and they are very familiar with Han Qi.

In other words, in the past, they were very respectful - they were afraid of offending the other party, but also wanted to curry favor with the other party, and given their previous status, they could not find a way to curry favor with them.

Now that they met the two of them, the three of them stopped in their tracks, with their usual flattering smiles on their faces, and saluted each other.

Unexpectedly, the other two senior brothers also stopped and smiled kindly at them, "Junior Brother Han, please stop being so polite!"

"Senior brother?"

"We are all from Junior Brother Zheng..." A senior brother gently held Han Qi's shoulder, as if he was very familiar with him. "You have been following Junior Brother Zheng for a long time, and you have gained a lot of face in front of him. This whole boat of spiritual talismans has been handed over to you! Please give me a few kind words for Senior Brother in the future."

"... Yes!"

After a few cordial conversations, the two senior brothers took their leave.

The tall and thin man next to Han Qi looked at the disappearing figures of the two senior brothers, smacked his lips, and said a little proudly, "Are we... so proud of ourselves now?"

"... That's because Junior Brother Zheng is so proud!" Han Qi shook his head.

"Brother, I'm afraid we can make a fortune this time!" The tall and thin man suddenly changed the subject and said excitedly, "It was just a small fight before, but this time... it's a boatload of talismans!"

"... If you want to die, don't take me with you!" Han Qi slapped the other party on the back of the head.

"..."

"We have just lived for two days, and you are going to die!" Han Qi took two deep breaths and shouted angrily in a low voice, "Do you really think those brothers on the ship won't keep an eye on us? As polite as they are to us now, they want to take our place!"

"This..."

"What kind of future does Junior Brother Zheng have? Where are you now? If you are so short-sighted... don't follow me next time!"

After saying that, he gave a few more words of advice. "We are not good at cultivation, so we can only work hard. I have been sleeping with one eye open these past few nights."

The tall and thin man touched the back of his head and grinned. "Senior brother, after following Junior Brother Zheng, you almost don't look like you anymore."

"..." Han Qi glanced at him, then at the senior brother in the distance, and suddenly said softly, "Follow Junior Brother Zheng, and I will look like myself."

"?" The tall and thin man had a puzzled expression, as if he didn't quite understand.

"Isn't it good now?" Han Qi didn't bother to explain.

"Okay."

"Then you talk so much nonsense."

The moon was waning in the sky, and the night was getting dark.

In a slightly larger courtyard two streets away from Zheng Fa's small courtyard, Sun Daoyu and Zhou Ganyuan were sitting on the attic.

Sun Daoyu kept looking in the direction of Zheng Fa's small courtyard.

"Brother? What are you looking at?" Zhou Ganyuan asked.

"Look at Zheng Fa."

"Zheng Fa?" Zhou Ganyuan was confused and looked at Zheng Fa's yard, but saw nothing.

When he turned around, he realized that Sun Daoyu's eyes had changed color. The originally black pupils were now dyed with silver light, looking mysterious and unpredictable.

"Void-Piercing Spirit Eye?" Zhou Ganyuan looked surprised, and a somewhat terrifying suspicion suddenly came to his mind...

He took three steps back slightly, a little further away from his senior brother, and then said, "Senior brother, are you... a bit rude?"

"It's a bit rude." Sun Daoyu sighed, "I can't go in front of him and stare at him."

"Actually... this is not a wrong thing. Aren't there many ordinary young masters who have similar hobbies to you, senior brother?" Zhou Ganyuan pursed his lips and suggested dryly. "We cultivators don't have so many prejudices. Why don't you just go and express your feelings to Junior Brother Zheng?"

"... your thoughts?" Sun Daoyu was stunned and slowly looked at Zhou Ganyuan.

Zhou Ganyuan looked at him with encouragement and understanding.

Sun Daoyu's face showed a look of thinking, as if he finally understood the meaning of the word "heart", his face slowly fell apart.

"I'm here for Millennium Purple Bamboo Tears!" Looking at Zhou Ganyuan's doubtful expression, Sun Daoyu gritted his teeth and explained, "Senior Sister Zhang went to see Master a few days ago and said he wanted to use <Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method> in exchange for Millennium Purple Bamboo Tears for two people."

Zhou Ganyuan looked at his senior brother with a somewhat disbelieving expression. "What does this have to do with Zheng Fa?"

"It's Senior Sister Zhang who said that Zheng Fa's cultivation progress of <Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method> has improved extremely quickly. It can even double the cultivation speed after condensing Origin Talisman Dao Foundation."

"... So powerful?"

"Not only do you not believe it, Master doesn't believe it either." Sun Daoyu shook his head and said, "And I don't want to give Millennium Purple Bamboo Tears to two people."

Looking at Zhou Ganyuan, he was still a little confused. Sun Daoyu explained softly, "Master's Millennium Purple Bamboo plant can produce less and less purple bamboo tears. Now we only have two people's share."

"Because of me?"

"Yes, if you give Senior Sister Zhang two people, you have to wait at least ten years." Sun Daoyu explained.

"..."

"And <Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method> is defective, so it's not worth so much."

Sun Daoyu's words made Zhou Ganyuan stunned and couldn't help but ask, "Then Master has always wanted this technique."

"On the one hand, this technique is really amazing and very suitable for Talisman Master to practice. Master once said that Senior Sister Zhang can't make up for the shortcomings of this technique. It doesn't mean that he can't do it. He actually already has a clue." Sun Daoyu smiled, "And master also has the idea of overcoming the other lineage by repairing <Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method>."

"... Senior brother, are you coming today?"

"Master asked me to see if Junior Brother Zheng is practicing so fast. More importantly, see if Senior Sister Zhang has fixed the shortcomings of <Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method>, which makes Zheng Fa practice so fast."

Zhou Ganyuan looked a little confused.

Sun Daoyu smiled when he saw it, "Junior brother, don't worry, no matter how fast he cultivates, I will tell the master, <Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method> is not worth two people Millennium Purple Bamboo Tears."

Zhou Ganyuan nodded a little shyly and said in a low voice, "Thank you, senior brother."

"You are my junior brother! Of course I will use you first." Sun Daoyu smiled gently at his junior brother.

Zhou Ganyuan pursed his lips, his expression a little touched but not as if he dared to be moved.

He whispered, "Senior brother, junior brother... I only have respect for you."

Sun Daoyu:"?"

Zheng Fa didn't know that someone was spying on her, or it was a man.

He has come to modern times in a dream.

At Old Man Bai's house, there is a laptop in front of the three of them. On the screen of the laptop is Talisman Diagram, which is divided into categories.

"Not very good."

Zheng Fa frowned and looked at the results sent by Han Xiaobai, feeling a little disappointed.

"I have tried all the algorithms that can be tried." Han Xiaobai's reply was also a little aggrieved, "The training set you gave me is still insufficient."

Zheng Fa I don't think this person is shirking responsibility.

Indeed, there are not many yin and yang Five-Element Talisman Diagram that Senior Sister Zhang can classify well, and some of them need to be set aside to verify the accuracy of the Han Xiaobai classification algorithm.

This is even less.

"How about not classifying them in such detail?" Zheng Fa suggested after thinking about it.

"You're right!" Old Man Bai clapped his hands and nodded in agreement. "There are few samples, so let's divide them into major categories!"

The meaning of Zheng Fa is very simple.

Since it is divided into ten categories, Yang Five Elements, I can't tell much.

Then divide it into two categories: Yin and Yang, or five categories: Five Elements, and see if you can find some clues.

Obviously, the number of samples divided into Yin and Yang is the largest.

"Try positive Talisman Diagram first."

Han Xiaobai on the other end of the notebook sent back several results more than an hour later.

Zheng Fa looked at it for a long time without seeing anything, so he turned to look at Old Man Bai.

Old Man Bai looked at it for a long time and shook his head.

"Try the negative one again."

Zheng Fa's heart sank and he said to the other person.

"Still can't tell."

Looking at the result sent from Han Xiaobai, Old Man Bai sighed.

"Try following Five Elements and try the water spiritual talisman first."

Zheng Fa feels calm now.

After all, cultivation is not a temporary thing, and it really cannot be rushed.

Probably Senior Sister Zhang is water Spirit Root. She has tested the most water spiritual talismans.

After struggling for so long, the night is getting a bit late.

While waiting for the results, Old Man Bai couldn't help but yawn.

Zheng Fa turned to Tang Lingwu and asked, "Don't you need to go back first?"

Tang Lingwu thought for a while and said, "I will leave when the results come out."

"How about you go back first? I don't think there is much hope." Old Man Bai opened his mouth wide and squeezed out a few tears from his eyes, muttering, "This thing still depends on some luck."

Tang Lingwu shook his head.

There was a new message notification sound coming from the laptop. Zheng Fa clicked on it and saw that it was Han Xiaobai who gave the result this time.

Zheng Fa frowned and turned the mouse wheel, looking at these Talisman Diagram that were classified as water by the computer one by one.

"Wait! Look back at those pictures." Old Man Bai suddenly shouted.

Zheng Fa turned around and looked at Old Man Bai with a little surprise.

Old Man Bai wiped the corners of his eyes and muttered, "I just yawned and cried. My eyes were a little blurry and I couldn't see clearly."

"..."

"Wait!"

"Dazzled again?"

"This structure appears very frequently in this category."

Old Man Bai pointed at the computer screen and said.
