Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?! - Chapter 161

Chapter 161: Chapter 159: The Plant Autonomy Talisman? Mine!
After getting the idea about the “Bridge-crossing Talisman” from Yue Linger, Jiang Cheng immediately rushed to Lotus University’s library without stopping.

The Bridge-crossing Talisman was not a name, but a general term for a type of talisman that could transmit power.

Such talismans were uncommon, and ordinary textbooks hardly mentioned them, making them a niche and obscure type of talisman.

However, with the collection size of Lotus University’s library, Jiang Cheng wasn’t worried about not finding the appropriate references.

But just as Jiang Cheng arrived at the library, he received a communication talisman from Yue Linger.

“Hello?”

“Jiang Cheng, do you remember Shen Menghan, the Alchemy Department senior I introduced you to last time?”

“Yeah, what about her?”

“She needs to see you, are you available to meet her?”

Jiang Cheng actually wanted to deal with the issue of the Bridge-crossing Talisman first, but as an excellent young person of the new era, Jiang Cheng always understood the principle of “repaying a drop of kindness with a spring of water.”

Last time, Shen had helped him with the ingredients of the Qi Blood Pill, and this time, he should also lend a hand to her.

“Sure.”

“Okay, then I’ll give her your number.”

“Sure.”

“Um, do you need me to come with you?” Yue Linger tentatively asked.

Jiang Cheng didn’t want to trouble Yue Linger, so he said, “It shouldn’t be necessary.”

Yue Linger: …

I knew it! I should have just said I wanted to go!

After hanging up the communication talisman, Shen Menghan soon called Jiang Cheng, and they agreed to meet in the library’s rest area.

Shen Menghan had learned from her father that Jiang Cheng seemed to have invented a talisman that could increase the yield of Blood Orange Trees.

As a fellow Alchemist, Shen Menghan naturally understood the importance of this.

For individual Alchemists, the price of alchemy materials wasn’t very sensitive, as individual Alchemists wouldn’t be producing the same elixirs continuously over the long term.

But for Alchemist Shops, fluctuations in material costs often meant huge profits and business opportunities.

If Jiang Cheng had really come up with something revolutionary, then Miaodan Workshop had to seize the opportunity!

Jiang Cheng arrived first at the library’s rest area, and soon, Shen Menghan also appeared.

Different from their last meeting where she was blunt, this time upon seeing Jiang Cheng again, Shen Menghan smiled the entire time, her face practically broadcasting the word “pleasing.”

“Jiang, long time no see.”

“Shen.”

“You don’t need to be so formal, just call me Menghan.”

Since Shen Menghan was Yue Linger’s friend, and because she had helped him before, and considering that Jiang Cheng always disliked failing to reciprocate warmth and kindness.

After weighing the pros and cons, Jiang Cheng nodded and said, “Okay, Menghan.”

“Junior, I hear you’ve created a talisman? One related to Spirit Plants.”

“Right.”

“Can you tell me more about it?”

Jiang Cheng didn’t think much of it; after all, it was normal for an Alchemist to be interested in Spirit Plants.

He simply said, “No problem.”

In the library study room, Zhu Hongcai’s fighting spirit burned out after ten minutes.

His progress in reading “Talisman Master’s Introduction” stopped on the third page of the index, which meant that after ten minutes, he still didn’t know where the door was.

“Guangming, reading is too brain-consuming, it’s made me hungry. Wanna go out and grab something to eat? My treat.”

Ding Guangming said speechlessly, “Hong Cai, are you afraid of learning too much and it entering your brain?”

“What are you saying? I, Zhu Hongcai, have never been afraid! By the way, what flavor did you say ‘cheese’ was? Is it tasty?”

Ding Guangming felt that Zhu Hongcai was a good guy, never stingy and not a stickler for details, though he did have a minor flaw—doing everything except what he should.

Song Junsheng stood up and said, “Study for another twenty minutes, then go out for a walk to relax, it’s good to alternate work and leisure.”

Seeing that both his roommates had decided to continue studying, Zhu Hongcai also had to uphold the spirit of dormitory unity and made an effort to return to reading “Talisman Master’s Introduction.”

Then, ten minutes later, Zhu Hongcai dreamt he was holding hands with a senior sister.

The adjacent Ding Guangming and Song Junsheng couldn’t bear it any longer. It was one thing for Zhu Hongcai to sleep, but the key issue was his snoring!

They were directly labeled the enemies of the quiet study room, leaving them with no choice but to leave.

“Hong Cai, I beg you, please stop studying for now, let’s go out and take a break, maybe get something to eat,” urged Ding Guangming, pulling Zhu Hongcai out of the study room.

Five minutes later, the three arrived at the library’s rest area.

Here, there were quite a few small shops selling milk tea, coffee, and desserts. It wasn’t enough for a full meal, but it sufficed to stave off hunger.

As Ding Guangming lined up for milk tea, he suddenly noticed a familiar face not far away: “Hey? Isn’t that Cheng over there?”

Zhu Hongcai, without looking back, said: “You must be mistaken. When would Jiang Cheng have the time to come to the library? Doesn’t he have trees to plant?”

Song Junsheng said, “The cultivator opposite Jiang Cheng is quite pretty.”

Zhu Hongcai immediately turned his head: “Where?”

Ding Guangming secretly admired Song Junsheng’s approach.

After purchasing their milk tea, the three found a spot to sit not too far from Jiang Cheng in the rest area.

Jiang Cheng and Shen Menghan seemed to be talking about something related to alchemy, so the three tactfully did not disturb them.

Even so, Zhu Hongcai’s gaze never strayed from Jiang Cheng’s direction from start to finish.

Seeing the beautiful Shen interact closely with Jiang Cheng every so often, the envy in Zhu Hongcai’s eyes was almost tangible.

Eventually, even Song Junsheng couldn’t stand it and took the initiative to say, “Hong Cai, why don’t we go and sit over there?”

Zhu Hongcai immediately scoffed and said, “Hmph, she’s just an Alchemy Department senior. She just looks like that, nowhere near as good as our Talisman Department’s Cheng. It’s like who cares anyway.”

After speaking, Zhu Hongcai still worried his roommates wouldn’t believe him and couldn’t resist adding, “And even if he has an Alchemy Department senior, it’s only a tie against me. Keep in mind, school has just started, and I haven’t even begun to try yet.”
