Chapter 345: The Eighth Elder
Lu Yang reckoned that if Tao Yaoye defected to the Nine Nether Sect, the Nine Nether Sect leader would probably enshrine Tao Yaoye as a saint, or directly let Tao Yaoye be the leader.
This way of making money was faster than Qin Yuanhao's loan. It was no exaggeration to say it was a profit without investment.
Without investment, there was no need to worry about losing money.
There was no need to hire actors, and no need to shoot dozens of times repeatedly. Illusions could be thought of at will, and special effects didn't need to be said; they were absolutely real.
If you were caught in an illusion during battle, and you died in the illusion, it was a real death. The hallucinations brought by the illusion were absolutely more real than the real ones.
There was no need to worry about the plot. The things that happened in the Cultivation Realm every day could be used as material. With a little interpretation and processing, they could be movies. If the plot was too long, they could be TV series.
Not to mention far away, Master's storytelling "Legend of the Congwendao Sect" could be used as a movie.
"It's a good thing, but there are areas that need improvement."
Lu Yang pondered for a moment and pointed out the shortcomings of Tao Yaoye's illusion casting.
"You realized that relying on fighting alone is not attractive enough, and adding a short plot is a good idea, but it's still not enough."
"An attractive plot must make people feel hearty, make people have endless aftertaste after watching, have foreshadowing, and have reversals."
"Hmm hmm." Tao Yaoye nodded repeatedly. It was worthy of being a senior brother. His brain turned faster than hers. He could think so far just after coming into contact with it.
"The plot is secondary for now. The main thing is how to cast the illusion."
Tao Yaoye was puzzled, not understanding the meaning: "I can cast the illusion myself."
Lu Yang shook his head: "Of course you can cast it, but you can't cast illusions everywhere. That would tire you to death."
"You also said that you want to rely on this way to make money. If you want to make money, you need to promote it. If you want to promote it, you need a more convenient way to cast illusions."
"For example, talismans."
"If I remember correctly, talismans are the most common carriers for illusions."
Tao Yaoye lowered her head and thought about who to ask for advice: "For talismans... the Sect Leader is skilled in sword techniques, the First Elder is skilled in dream making, the Second Elder is skilled in formations, the Third Elder is skilled in body refining, the Fourth Elder is skilled in Confucianism, the Fifth Elder is skilled in artifact refining, Master is skilled in immortal bodies, the Seventh Elder is skilled in pill refining, the Eighth Elder is skilled in swindling."
"It seems that no one among the elders is skilled. Should I find senior brothers and sisters for help?"
Lu Yang was silent for a while and couldn't help but say: "... Is it possible that the Eighth Elder, besides swindling, is also skilled in talismans?"
Although there was a rumor that when the Unspoken Daoist first went up the mountain, he was brought up by the Eighth Elder, laying a solid foundation for the Unspoken Daoist to grow crooked in the future.
Although nine hundred years ago, the Eighth Elder swindled the Nine Nether Sect until its treasury was empty, forcing the previous leader to commit suicide.
Although the Eighth Elder sold Meng Jingzhou the exam questions from twenty years ago.
Although the Fifth Elder desperately wouldn't let the talisman cultivator Qin Yuanhao find the Eighth Elder to learn talismans, fearing she would learn crookedly.
But it couldn't be denied that the Eighth Elder was indeed a talisman master.
"Discuss with the Eighth Elder, but for the sake of stability, it's better to call the Sixth Elder." Lu Yang suggested cautiously and got Tao Yaoye's approval.
On the top of Wuchen Peak, the Sixth Elder, who was beautiful to the point of suffocation, sat cross-legged. Under the effect of the Immaculate Immortal Body, the surroundings became a vacuum zone.
She tried her best to gather the range of the immortal body. She found that the smaller the range of the immortal body, the stronger the repulsive effect. The best state was to let the domain of the Immaculate Immortal Body attach to the body surface, a thin layer, so that she could fear no attack.
It was just that according to the records, no generation of Immaculate Immortal Body had achieved this level.
She noticed someone coming not far away, opened her beautiful eyes, and saw Lu Yang and Tao Yaoye.
"What's the matter with you two?" She transmitted sound and asked.
"Disturbing Master's cultivation, it's like this, the disciple recently had new ideas about illusion..." Tao Yaoye explained the discussion process with Lu Yang in detail.
"The idea is good. If it's based on Old Eight's talisman level, it should be no difficulty to operate." The Sixth Elder also realized what kind of business opportunity Tao Yaoye's idea contained, and felt a little proud in her heart.
Tao Yaoye's idea was much more profitable than the Ninth Junior Brother's "Size As You Wish (Partial Version)".
Look, this is the good disciple I taught!
"Go, I'll take you to find him." The Sixth Elder raised her hand, and a strange energy wrapped Lu Yang and Tao Yaoye, taking them directly from the top of Wuchen Peak to the nearby Fumen Peak.
Fumen Peak was the mountain peak managed by the Eighth Elder.
The three landed. Lu Yang and Tao Yaoye came to Fumen Peak for the first time. They found that there were runes everywhere, even on the leaves, and the shapes formed by various plants were also vaguely like talismans.
"Old Eight, come out, let you help with something!" The Sixth Elder transmitted sound to the Eighth Elder.
"Senior Sister is looking for me?" The Eighth Elder walked out of the cave with a surprised expression. In his impression, the Sixth Senior Sister rarely asked him for help.
"Is it that Senior Sister was swindled by someone who didn't have eyes outside, and needs me to swindle it back? This is probably not possible. I haven't gone down the mountain to swindle people for decades."
Lu Yang thought to himself, Eighth Elder, have you forgotten that you just swindled Meng Jingzhou a year and a half ago?
Tao Yaoye didn't know about this and thought the Eighth Elder had washed his hands of it.
"But don't worry, if anyone dares to swindle Senior Sister, even if I don't go down the mountain, I can send disciples to swindle him until he doesn't even have underpants left!"
"I am different from the Ninth Junior Brother. I have swindled people for so many years and have never been caught!"
"The disciples I taught are the same, all quite reliable, and won't be caught by the government!" The Eighth Elder patted his chest to guarantee, quite emphasizing the friendship between senior and junior sisters and brothers. He was taken care of by the Sixth Elder a lot when he was young.
Lu Yang was in awe. He didn't expect the Eighth Elder's swindling skills to be so brilliant that he had never been caught. Even Master couldn't compare to this!
You know, Master was a ruthless person who could pit the Minister of Justice into the big prison.
Optimistically, Master hadn't been released yet.
Lu Yang heard that since the Minister of Justice was locked in the big prison of Dayan County, the Ministry of Justice collectively went to Dayan County to work, and the public security of Dayan County was unprecedentedly clear. Not a single illegal or criminal thing happened.
Bad people weren't stupid. The Ministry of Justice was collectively stationed in Dayan County. Who would be so stupid as to commit crimes under their noses?
They weren't the Unspoken Daoist.
However, there was a price. Lu Yang heard Meng Jingzhou say that officials in the Imperial Capital, even if they asked for leave, had to go to the prison in Dayan County to take a look, seeing something new.
It was called caring for colleagues.
By the way, they suggested to the Dayan County Magistrate to sentence the Unspoken Daoist to death.
The Sixth Elder rolled her eyes at the Eighth Elder. They had been senior and junior sisters and brothers for two thousand years. She knew exactly what the Eighth Elder was like.
"Right, you indeed haven't been caught. You all surrendered yourself, saying that this could reduce the sentence."
"Also, don't think I don't know why you don't leave the sect. Isn't it waiting for the statute of limitations to pass?"
The Great Xia Criminal Law clearly stipulates that if the crime has exceeded the statutory statute of limitations, the criminal responsibility of the criminal will no longer be investigated.
