Qingshi Town, within a courtyard that exuded an ancient charm.
As the Ancestor of the Luo Family, Luo Changfeng,
was currently sitting in quiet meditation under a stone pavilion.
In his hands, he continuously toyed with a tuft of deep black, Yellow Grade inferior Beast Fire known as Black Crow Flame.
After half a month’s time of nurturing, he had gradually developed a deeper connection with the Beast Fire in his hands,
and his affinity with it had also reached an extremely high level.
Although, he hadn’t quite reached the point where he could wield it as if it were an extension of his own arm,
he felt that using this Black Crow Flame to refine elixirs shouldn’t pose too great a problem now.
“Hmm?”
“Is someone coming?”
Upon sensing someone approaching his courtyard,
Luo Changfeng withdrew the tuft of Black Crow Flame back into his body.
Then, he slightly narrowed his eyes,
and looked toward the direction of the incoming person.
“Luo Ping?”
“What could this youngster possibly need from me so suddenly?”
Beneath the stone pavilion, Luo Changfeng thought to himself quietly.
But before he could come up with an answer,
Luo Ping, the Current Patriarch of the Luo Family, had already arrived in the courtyard.
With his head slightly bowed and waist bent, he called out with a respectful tone, “Patriarch Changfeng…”
“What is it?”
“You needed to see me?”
As Luo Changfeng poured himself a cup of cold tea, he took a silent sip before asking.
“Patriarch Changfeng, there is something that I truly don’t know how to deal with…”
Luo Changfeng silently lifted his head and glanced at Luo Ping before asking, “What is the matter?”
As Luo Ping laid out the concerns in his heart,
Luo Changfeng’s expression remained remarkably calm.
From time to time, he even took a sip of the cold tea in his hand,
as if the issues before him were nothing challenging at all.
“The Luo Family from one of the four great families in Jiangnan Prefecture?”
Luo Changfeng murmured softly.
But soon, he stopped concerning himself with the so-called Luo Family.
“Merely issues with climate temperature, water resources, and locusts?”
Luo Ping was slightly stunned,
yet he nodded in response.
“This is simple, come find me again after three days.”
“By then, I will have resolved the high temperature, the water resources, and the locust problem for you, one by one.”
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, you may leave…”
Luo Changfeng waved his hand.
Afterward, he no longer paid attention to Luo Ping, who was at his side.
And although Luo Ping was a bit puzzled,
he still slightly bowed his head,
then turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
…
Perhaps, for ordinary people or cultivators,
locust plagues, droughts,
and the so-called high temperature issues,
are exceedingly difficult to solve, even impossible in some cases.
But to Luo Changfeng, who studied many strange and odd things, these were not difficult at all.
With the art of talisman crafting, he could easily resolve these three problems.
Cooling Charms, Rain Seeking Talismans, and finally Locust Removal Talismans.
He had crafted Cooling Charms before with great effectiveness.
Although he had never attempted to create the Rain Seeking or Locust Removal Talismans, judging by the standard of the Cooling Charm…
The effectiveness of these two types of talismans shouldn’t fall far behind.
“Just not sure how many I will need?”
“Nevermind, let’s just make a bunch and be done with it…”
Thinking like this to himself, Luo Changfeng then took out all the materials needed for crafting talismans,
along with the precious brush stored within his storage bag.
“Cooling Charms are simple to make, but I need to think about how Rain Seeking Talismans and Locust Removal Talismans are crafted…”
Luo Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly.
After pondering for a short while, he began to write,
his body moving as his right hand, holding the brush, danced up and down.
The talisman-crafting Luo Changfeng looked calm,
yet his movements were erratic, like that of a neurotic patient,
making his every pause and gesture seem bizarre and somewhat irregular.
Similarly, the talismans on the paper,
though they seemed as if a ghost had drawn them,
often exploded with miraculous effects that were difficult for ordinary people to imagine.
“Both the Rain Seeking Talisman and Locust Removal Talisman are complete.”
“It seems simpler than I had anticipated…”
Luo Changfeng casually picked up a Rain Seeking Talisman from the table,
then activated his internal Qi-Blood Force,
and channeled it into the talisman in his hand.
Once the Rain Seeking Talisman was activated,
it slowly floated upward into the sky.
The special features of the Rain Seeking Talisman, somewhat similar to the Cooling Charm,
allowed not only control over the amount of rainfall but also its range,
making it particularly convenient to use.
As for how long it could be used?
That depended entirely on the grade of the talismans and the extent of the heavenly and earthly authority they could usurp.
The more authority usurped, the longer the duration;
the less authority usurped, the shorter the duration.
…
Thus, under the effect of the Rain Seeking Talisman,
light drizzles began to fall across the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
The amount of rain was not heavy,
but in such dry and hot weather, the light rain still brought great comfort.
“Not bad at all…”
After nodding quietly to himself, Luo Changfeng then increased the amount of rainfall.
As the rainfall quantity was adjusted,
the light drizzle gradually turned into more common rain.
