Chapter 241 Refining Amulet

"Zhang Zeduan, there should be hope to reach the level of 'Scholar'. Just an amulet may not be enough."

After staring at the talisman in his hand for a long time, Lin Dong shook his head and turned to leave.

In ancient times, there was a kind of person who was terrible.

The name of such a person is called "shi".

How terrible are they?

The description of the Four Great Assassins in the Historical Records already speaks volumes, and there is another sentence, which is also their belief.

This sentence is very famous.

It is...

If you treat me with a state officer, I will repay it.

Anyone who agrees with this sentence and has won the appreciation of the superiors, most of them are absolute desperadoes.

Lin Dong wondered if Zhang Zeduan would ignore the beggars on the street and the endless sick people, and then swear allegiance to the Seventh Prince and repay him with a national soldier.

But in his opinion, Zhang Zeduan, who was able to reject him in order to stay, might really go that far.

So, one or two amulets are pretty much useless.

When the time comes to a crisis, these "scholars" can definitely take out all their own things to save the life of the "jun".

Even if they lost their lives because of this, they would not hesitate.

The current situation in the Seljuk Empire is very dangerous. The eldest prince and the third prince are very powerful, and they may fight back to Damascus someday.

Therefore, if only one or two amulets were left for Zhang Zeduan, he might eventually give the amulets to the Seventh Prince for use.

Of course, it's just possible.

But most of the people who regarded themselves as "scholars" in ancient times were able to do such stupid things.

People like Zhang Zeduan, who have not been used for a long time but have been highly valued in a foreign country, will easily embark on this path.

……

Walking on the streets of Damascus, Lin Dong looked at a beggar with a yellow and emaciated face, and shook his head silently.

In fact, as far as the gap between the rich and the poor is concerned, the whole world is the same.

Otherwise, Huaxia would not have such poems as "The rich wine and meat stink, and the road has frozen bones" that have been sung through the ages.

It's just that the people of the Seljuk Empire are obviously worse.

It's not that Lin Dong loves Song Dynasty more, or is an imperial man, but that's the way it is.

Zhao Gou dared to go to Goulan every day without doing his job, but if someone told him that there were tens of thousands of refugees in the capital and tens of thousands of people outside the capital were infected with the plague, would he be able to remain still?

No.

As long as he knows and has the strength to make a change, he has to do it whether he wants to or not.

Otherwise, those ministers in the court would dare to tell him that he is a faint king, a tyrant, a king of Jie and Zhou...

As the emperor, except for some weird ones, who can stand up to these evaluations?

Therefore, he has to take care of it, and he has to take care of it.

Although in the end, half of the money and food may go to the greedy people, but he still has to take care of it...

This is the responsibility of being an emperor.

But, those in power in the Seljuk Empire have no such responsibility.

Looking at the misery of those people on the side of the road and the lack of care is enough to prove this point.

If this was in Bianliang City, Lin Dong believed that the governor of Kaifeng would have already started working.

At least the number of deaths from illness and starvation will be controlled within a certain range.

Even if it's just pretending...

But Damascus can't even make appearances.

So, they are miserable.

However, Lin Dong has not yet reached the step of helping the world, and he can't help many people, so he can only keep silent about it.

"Shopkeeper, please help me wrap these two gems."

After walking through a few commercial streets, shaking off and scaring away some gangsters, Lin Dong came to a gem shop, and after choosing two at random, he smiled and said to the shop owner who looked at him vigilantly.

While speaking, he took out an ingot of gold.

Lin Dong is not very poor, but he is not very rich either. At best, he can only be regarded as having no worries about food and clothing.

This time for Zhang Zeduan, he can be said to have paid a lot of money.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Seeing the gold that Lin Dong took out, the shopkeeper swallowed hard, then quickly controlled his greed, wrapped up a few gems and handed them to Lin Dong: "The gems you want need a total of 27 gold coins... If you use this account, I will give you 31 pieces."

"Okay, please trouble the store." Lin Dong handed out the gold with a smile, and after receiving the 31 gold coins recovered by the store, he walked out slowly.

"What a luxurious guest..."

The owner of the gem shop sighed at Lin Dong's back, and then a sense of greed suddenly arose in his heart.

But soon, he shook his head again, and said to himself: "Forget it, judging by his face, he should be a distinguished guest entertained by the Seventh Prince..."

The store finally dismissed the idea of ​​letting Lin Dong keep the money and goods.

He didn't know it, so he escaped unharmed.

After all, Lin Dong is in a bad mood right now.

……

"It's time to start."

Back at the luxurious residence arranged by the Seventh Prince, Lin Dong closed the door, put the jade aside casually, and sat cross-legged on the bed.

Afterwards, his gaze was fixed on the index finger until a drop of blood was forced out.

With the appearance of this drop of blood, Lin Dong's fingers instantly turned pale. Although he recovered quickly, anyone can tell that he must have suffered some trauma.

However, Lin Dong, who didn't care much about this, turned around and got out of bed. After getting the jade stone aside, he shook his head and muttered: "Zhang Zeduan, Zhang Zeduan, Pindao wasted a drop of essence for you." Blood."

After long-term experiments, Lin Dong has already determined that jade is the best source of vitality.

Then, on the basis of the formation, he tried to carve some small formations into it.

Many successes, very few failures.

What's more, some small formations can be combined to form a large formation with considerable potential.

However, it was Lin Dong's first time for a big girl to make amulets out of jade... for the first time.

But for the sake of Zhang Zeduan's life, he could only try.

By the way, if jade is the best source of vitality, then his blood is the best "ink".

Chi Chi!

During the movement of the fingers, a piece of jade has gradually become a thin piece.

"It's almost there." Holding the drop of blood essence in his left hand, he slowly and carefully combined it with the thin slice of jade, and at the same time controlled the drop of blood essence to change its shape, gradually forming a formation.

Jade quickly changed.

Among the translucent jade, strands of red threads around the hair began to appear.

When the silk threads were formed under a certain trajectory, the jade suddenly burst into a dazzling light.

However, the radiance dissipated quickly, and the remaining jade, except for some bloodshot inside, had nothing special about it.

"That's about it."

Lin Dong breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, picked up the jade, and walked towards the palace.

When he saw the drunk Zhang Zeduan strolling outside the door, he walked straight over and slapped Zhang Zeduan on the back.

Snapped!
This slap was very powerful, and the sound was extremely crisp.

When the pain came, Zhang Zeduan was half awake from the wine, he turned his head blankly, looked at Lin Dong behind him, and asked in fear, "Xian, Master Xian, are you...?"

"These two amulets are for you. If you encounter a crisis in the future, you can open them, and they should be able to save your life."

Lin Dong didn't explain that he punched the amulet into the opponent's body, and there was no need to explain.

Silently took out the two amulets and handed them over.

"You..." Zhang Zeduan really woke up now.

However, when he wanted to ask more questions, Lin Dong was already flying with his sword.

Pfft!
The next moment, Zhang Zeduan knelt on the ground, and said to the direction Lin Dong left: "It's not because I don't want to, it's because the Seventh Prince didn't repay his kindness, I really..."
