Since Tuoba Danqing left, Li Huowang was alone in the inn and naturally had nothing to do.

He learned a lot today and wanted to go back and digest it.

At this moment, Red's clapping came from beside him, "Not bad, not bad. It's really worthy of being one of the three great tiles. You mixed truth with lies so well that even that old man won't find any doubts."

Li Huowang glared at him and was about to say something when the waiter with a white towel on his shoulder walked in.

Seeing the waiter bowing to him, Li Huowang didn't say anything and walked outside. But at this moment, the voice of the waiter came from behind him.

"Sir, you haven't touched a lot of food today. Do you want to take it away in a food box like last time?"

Li Huowang's expression instantly turned cold, "Take what away? I'm not taking it!"

The waiter looked at Li Huowang with a face of grievance as he left. "He clearly took it last time, why not this time?"

The next day, Li Huowang sat in a carriage and headed down the spacious street towards the City God Temple of Yinling City, which was naturally very conspicuous.

He soon found it, a tall and magnificent temple located at the intersection.

Sitting in the carriage and looking up at the panorama, the temple was surrounded by green trees and flowers, with apricot yellow walls and blue-gray ridges. It was hard to imagine that such a magnificent temple was not a religious temple, but a City God Temple that every city had.

"Amitabha, Amituofo." The monk beside him clasped his hands together and devoutly worshipped the City God Temple.

The whole temple was filled with incense, and the residents of Yinling City came here one after another.

After standing there for a while, Li Huowang found that the most common visitors here were the prostitutes with blue patterns on their faces in the Linglong Tower.

These women were extremely devout, with their hands clasped together, raised over their chest, forehead, and head, and then laid flat on the ground. They did this every day, causing many places on the stone slabs to sink.

Li Huowang's keen hearing caught their prayers.

"City God, please, let any man take me away as a concubine."

"Please, City God, pity me, let me be born as a man in my next life and let me be a man!"

Li Huowang stood outside the City God Temple and looked inside from afar. The three black-faced City God with crescent-shaped cards in their hands sat in the center of the temple. The huge and oppressive Niu Tou Ma Mian stood on both sides of them. No matter how you looked at it, these City God didn't seem like an existence that would fulfill their wishes.

Li Huowang whipped the horse's butt and the carriage slowly headed towards the City God Temple. There were a few people selling fortune-telling and writing letters to home on the side of the road.

Li Huowang soon found Blind Chen, whom he had met once before. He was squatting there fortune-telling for a woman.

"Your fate...is not good~. Women who violate the hurtful officer will harm their husbands. The lotus cannot grow in a dry land. Even if you eat at two families, you still have to cook at three."

When Blind Chen finished shaking his head and talking, it naturally provoked the other party's angry scolding. He sat there calmly and waited for others to finish scolding.

After the woman left, he looked at Li Huowang with his white eyes. "Don't look at me like that, hehehe, I only read fate, not solve it."Although the other party was blind, Li Huowang felt like he was being watched.

"Hehehe, young man, if my calculations are correct, you must be the benefactor who came to give me the Bagua Mirror, right?"

Li Huowang hurriedly walked over and didn't want to waste time talking to him. He took out the mirror from the cart and placed it on his stall.

Two wrinkled hands reached out and when they touched the Bagua Mirror, Blind Chen's old face immediately showed an ugly smile.

"Not bad, not bad, this is the one I lost. By the way, where is the Taoist sect that pretended to be my granddaughter?"

"He's dead, I killed him."

Upon hearing this joyful news, Blind Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Hahaha~ Good! He deserved to die! He bullied me, a blind man, and pretended to be my granddaughter to deceive me! He got what he deserved!"

Seeing this scene, Red sneered disdainfully. "A defeated subordinate!"

"Master Chen, you mentioned it to Brother Tuoba before, please keep your promise."

"Naturally, naturally, how could I fool around with the people from the Monitoring Bureau." After speaking, he lowered his head and picked up a bamboo basket to search for something.

Soon, a dark blue book bound with thread was placed in front of Li Huowang by Blind Chen.

"This is a technique that our sect has never passed outside before. Ah...it's a pity...since our ancestor went crazy for no reason, the sect has declined and the hearts of the people have scattered."

Li Huowang opened the book and found that the talisman drawing method, pronunciation, uses, and even the blood and turmeric paper needed were all clearly recorded.

It had a wide range of functions, from warding off evil spirits, to divination and even helping people with medical problems. It could even be used to help the Liang family.

The functions were comprehensive, and the only things needed were one's own blood and turmeric paper, but he didn't know how effective it was.

However, this talisman was a bit strange. Unlike the talismans of the previous Luo sect, each twisted character contained a very obscure and distorted face.

Just as Li Huowang was asking about it, Blind Chen spoke. "Young man, I don't make jokes. The things I give you are definitely useful, but there are taboos."

"First of all, you can't use any of these talismans more than three times a day, and whether you're drawing or using them, you can't look at them."

"What if I do?" Li Huowang asked.

"Look?" Blind Chen chuckled softly and stared at Li Huowang with his white, sightless eyes.

"Then the talisman will come to life and it will be fixated on you. If you want to survive, you can only end up like me, with these skills gone."

After thinking about it, Li Huowang nodded without any change in expression. "That's fine."

After saying that, he patted the horse's butt with his hand and was about to start his journey.

"Huh? Is this okay?" Blind Chen was taken aback and clearly didn't expect such a reaction from Li Huowang.

"Hey, don't be in a hurry. Since you helped me avenge my grievances, I owe you something. I don't like to owe others things, so let me help you calculate your fortune."

"No need!" Li Huowang instinctively reached for the copper coin mask on his face.

But Blind Chen suddenly lunged forward and touched Li Huowang's shadow on the ground.

"Um... um... um..." He carefully touched Li Huowang's shadow, as if he was thinking about something.Li Huowang, with a slight frown, looked at Blind Chen's strange behavior for a while. Seeing him motionless, he led his horse away with a cautious expression.

Just as he was about to walk a few yards away, Blind Chen's voice came from behind him.

"The full moon wanes and waxes again, a few cold stars surround the remaining moon. The sand lamp in front of the door shines high, while the empty bag inside counts the passing seasons..."
