Chapter 375 Making Charms

Uncle Zhang, who was obviously taken aback by his unconventional behavior, forced a stunned expression on his serious old-fashioned face and then said methodically, “Young Master, it’s already 3 o’clock in the afternoon, and we have already had lunch.”

“Oh, then do what you should do, and you don’t need to stay here.”

Ding Ning said casually.

“That’s not suitable. The noble etiquette education I received teaches me when the master is eating…”

Uncle Zhang stubbornly rejected Ding Ning’s kindness and began to talk ceaselessly about the noble etiquette he learned.

Ding Ning gave a wry smile but had some slyness in his eyes. “Uh, Uncle Zhang, I have something to discuss with my sisters. All of you, please leave.”

“This… all right!”

Uncle Zhang froze. Although nobles generally didn’t have discussions at the dining table, he knew the situation of Shenzhou Country: Even business was negotiated at the drinking table.

The master wanted to discuss something at the dining table. As a servant, he could not say anything to protest. With a wave of his hand, he left with these maids.

Ding Qianlie relaxed her straightened waist immediately, leaned back on the chair, and patted her chest with a relieved wry smile. “Oh, my God, is he a housekeeper or a father I invited? Don’t those nobles feel tired to live this way?”

Luoxue covered her stomach to giggle, and Ding Ning also felt helpless. “Sister, you just made trouble for yourself. You should have invited a random housekeeper, you shouldn’t have invited a housekeeper for nobles, and we are not nobles.”

“I just wanted to experience something novel. I never thought that Uncle Zhang is so old-fashioned and is not flexible at all. Since he came, I have been more tired at home than in the company. I have to keep manners all the time, or Uncle Zhang will nag about my postures and correct them again.”

Ding Qianlie had a depressed expression on her face.

“Just change to another one.”

Ding Ning also had a headache about it. “A home is a place to relax, right? With such a strict and rigid housekeeper, we will have to suffer in the future.”

“I disagree. Uncle Zhang is in demand in the talent market, and many people want to hire him. I defeated many rivals and hired him with a high salary through bidding.”

Ding Qianlie pouted. “But in fact, although Uncle Zhang is a bit strict, he is a very professional housekeeper. Every day, he orderly assigns tasks to the servants and also deals with everything in the family in an orderly manner. It’s a pity to replace him.”

“It’s up to you. At most, we will have to discuss things when we eat in the future.”

While eating and drinking, Ding Ning came up with a lousy idea.

Ding Qianlie rolled her eyes. “Once or twice, that’s okay, but we can’t have discussions every day when we eat.”

“Sister, I think you are in the thing and so you get confused. Uncle Zhang is a housekeeper you invited with a high salary, not someone to manage us, and we are the masters. You have to learn to say no to him. Otherwise, a long time later, if he gets used to the habit of managing everything, it will be troublesome.”

Ding Ning opened his mouth to enjoy Luoxue’s diligent feeding. “You are the goddess of business, so you have to show your authority as a master. Otherwise, I will not dare to eat at home in the future.”

“Well, when I come back, I will talk to Uncle Zhang and ask him to only carefully manage the servants and not to care about the masters’ affairs.”

Ding Qianlie had a headache and rubbed her temples. During this time, she was so busy. The development of the old district was one of the biggest municipal projects this year. She must not make mistakes and had to watch it herself.

“Sister, let me give you a massage in a while. You look tired, and you have been very tired these days, haven’t you?”

Ding Ning looked at her with distress and said.

Ding Qianlie was shocked, and her face turned pink. “It’s okay, but I have to keep an eye on the development of Fuxing Road Old Area myself. I have to go to the construction site every day, and that’s a little tiring.”

But she was full of anticipation for the following massage. She had no choice. Although she had reached the Earth Martial Arts Realm, she did not have any practice method, and her only way to improve her power was to double-practice the Great Happiness Zen with Ding Ning.

“Oh, I nearly forgot one thing.”

Ding Ning patted his forehead suddenly and extended his hand happily. “Sister and Luoxue, give me your pendants.”

“Why? This is the gift you gave me. Want to take it back? No way.”

Luoxue handed over the jade carving to Ding Ning unhesitatingly, but Ding Qianlie held the Sagittarius pendant tightly and looked at him vigilantly.

Looking at her anti-thief-like expression, Ding Ning suddenly couldn’t help feeling helpless. “Sister, how can I take back what I gave to you? I just want to add something to it.”

“Really? Not a lie?”

Ding Qianlie looked at him doubtfully, but when she saw his sincere eyes, she reluctantly took off her pendant.

Ding Ning took out his burin and carved the red coral for a long time. Without changing the original shape, he carved a Mind-refreshing Charm and a Vajra Charm on it and then carved a Water Charm and a Thunderbolt Charm on Luoxue’s jade carving. After that, he took out a Spiritual Crystal of Water and a Spiritual Crystal of Thunder and injected their Spiritual Power into the charms.

They were all basic charm matrices, but compared with the Magical Charm with the help of foreign objects, Ding Ning was more inclined to use the more powerful Spiritual Charm. Yet, he knew that the amount of his True Qi might not provide enough Spiritual Power that the charm matrices needed. Thus, he had to cleverly replace it with spiritual crystals. The reason why he dared to make such an attempt was that he had learned the basics of matrices. As for making the Deity Charm, he could not desire for that now.

With the injection of the Spiritual Power, the charm matrices on the two pendants gradually brightened and kept flickering along the mysterious lines. When the Spiritual Power that the two low-quality spiritual crystals contained was nearly used up, Ding Ning opened his mouth, bit the tip of his tongue, and spat out two drops of his Essential Blood into the charm matrices, which flickered for a while and disappeared gradually as if they had never appeared before.

“Finished!”

Ding Ning was a little pale, but he handed the pendants back to them with so much joy.

“Are you okay? Why do you look so pale? Also, what were you doing just now…hey, how could this happen? What did you do?”

Ding Qianlie looked at him with some distress. As she nagged, she took her pendant, and a trace of refreshing air permeated her, who became refreshed and did not feel tired anymore, so she couldn’t help crying out with a “hey”.

“I did the research for seven days and seven nights, and I have just learned how to make charms. I drew two charms on your pendant. One is the Mind-refreshing Charm, which can nourish your spirit and eliminate your fatigue. The other is the Vajra Charm, which can protect you when you are in danger. Unless the enemy can attack you with the power beyond the endurance limit of the Vajra Charm, or it will keep you safe.”

Ding Ning explained with a smile. This was the first time that he had made charms, but it went smoothly beyond his imagination, so he was extremely satisfied.

“Then why did you spit blood on it? Warriors’ Essential Blood is very precious. In the future, don’t randomly waste your Essential Blood because it will hurt your vitality.”

Looking at him with a touch of emotion, Ding Qianlie could not help but remind him.

“Once a charm matrix has my blood, when you are in danger, I will sense your danger when the charm matrix is turned on. It also has the positioning function, so I can rush over to save you at the fastest speed.”

Ding Ning explained with a smile.

“You, you are so nice to me.”

Ding Qianlie’s mind was full of sweetness, and she said a little lovingly.

“You are my sister. If I am not nice to you, whom should I be nice to?”

Ding Ning grinned, but Ding Qianlie rolled her eyes with dissatisfaction, and he was confused. “What happened? Did I say anything wrong? Her reaction is strange.”

But he didn’t know that Ding Qianlie was aggrieved and muttered inwardly, “I’m not your sister. I am your future wife.”

“Brother, what charms on mine? I feel the Water Spiritual Aura has become richer.”

Luoxue put on her pendant joyfully, blinked her big eyes, and asked curiously.

“One is a Water Charm, which can attract the surrounding water elements and gather them around you, then it will help speed up your practice.”

Ding Ning rubbed her head and said with a smile, “The other is powerful. It is the Thunderbolt Charm. When you encounter a strong enemy, it can send out a powerful thunderbolt to hurt the enemy.”

“Wow, that’s very powerful.”

Luoxue could not help but play with the pendant and said with a look of admiration.

“But the Thunderbolt Charm has a flaw. Once it is activated, your jade carving will also be broken, so you should not use it if you are not in real danger.

Ding Ning smacked his lips, thinking secretly, “Do I need to make some cheap jade carving charms in the future? Otherwise, it will be too wasteful?”

“You’re partial. I also want a Thunderbolt Charm!”

Ding Qianlie pouted like a child fighting for a toy and shook Ding Ning’s arm to play coquettish, and her “magnificent mountain peaks” were undulating. Seeing that, Ding Ning almost had a nosebleed.

Hurriedly, he ran the Heart Sutra of Bodhi to keep himself calm and avoided showing his disgusting manner in public. “My evil sister is so tempting.”

When he calmed down, he found that Ding Qianlie was pouting, with an angry expression that she was very unhappy and needed someone to coax her. Ding Ning could not help but have a headache and quickly explained with a smile, “Sister, it’s not that I don’t help you make the Thunderbolt Charm, but that the pendant is too small and can only contain two charms at most. Luoxue has been in practice and has the self-protection ability, so I made the Thunderbolt Charm used for an attack. Sister, you are not in practice, so I made the defensive Vajra Charm for you. More importantly, even if I make a Thunderbolt Charm for you, you cannot turn it on. This charm needs to be activated with the True Qi.”

“Who says I have no True Qi? I have reached the Earth Martial Arts Realm.”

Ding Qianlie grumbled with dissatisfaction and raised her small fist as a protest.

“Sister, you are an Ancient Warrior?”

Ding Ning grabbed Ding Qianlie’s wrist in surprise, feeling her True Qi, but then his expression became extremely weird. “Sister, you have also practiced the Heart Sutra of Bodhi?”

“What Heart Sutra of Bodhi? No.”

Ding Qianlie looked blank.

“If you have not practiced the Heart Sutra of Bodhi, why is the True Qi in you the same as mine? Then, what is your practicing method?”

Ding Ning believed that his sister would not lie to him, but this was so strange. Was there another practicing method in the world the same as the Heart Sutra of Bodhi?

But this was impossible. The truth was that the True Qi gained through each practicing method was unique. This was the reason why when a Warrior’s True Qi entered his enemy’s body, it would hurt his enemy.

Ding Qianlie knew nothing about the common sense of practice, but she was always smart. Soon she realized that the reason must be the double-practice Great Happiness Zen that they experienced last time.

After his grandmother’s powerful Spiritual Power entered Ding Ning’s body and was transformed, he could not fully absorb it, and the rest entered her body through their double practice and rapidly transformed her to an Earth Martial Arts Realm strong figure from an ordinary person.

In other words, the True Qi in her and Ding Ning’s True Qi shared the same source, so Ding Ning thought that what she practiced was also the Heart Sutra of Bodhi.

Although she knew it, it was shameful for her to admit it, so she could only play dumb and said, “Grandma once said that I was born with a Buddha body. Maybe my inborn True Qi is from this.”

“Inborn Buddha body?”

Ding Ning nodded thoughtfully, “Maybe the inborn Buddha body is relatively special. Apart from this, there are no other ways to explain it.

“By the way, I forgot to tell you. Your phone has received numerous calls these days. You can take a look in a while and see if there are urgent matters for you.”

Ding Qianlie was inexplicably flustered, pretending to change the topic calmly.
