"What? You said that there was a thief in your house, and then the master Xie comforted you with ten bottles of elixir and a thousand elixir?" Wei Tian almost fell to the ground with his chin.
"Yes. I didn't expect that the Master Xie would be such a good person. He really cared for the students. I was lucky enough to meet such a good teacher." Tang Jie replied sighfully.
"Hey!" Wei Tian shouted, pounding his chest, "Why didn't the thief enter my house?"
Ten bottles of elixir, a thousand spiritual money, even if it is necessary for the Wei family to use this resource, it will be painful!
"What can you steal from here?" Tang Jie said with a curled mouth.
"Is there anything worth stealing from you?" Wei Tian was angry.
"At least some vegetables were grown."
"Who is such an idiot to steal food!" Wei Tianchong was going crazy.
"Be careful when you speak, you can offend a large number of people." Tang Jie muttered softly, and by the way grabbed a handful of spiritual money and handed it to Wei Tianchong.
Wei Tianchong was overjoyed: "You divide me?"
"No, I paid you back." Tang Jie replied with a smile.
Wei Tianchong's face sank immediately, he snorted, took the lingqian, and counted it repeatedly, only to find that there were a few more coins, and then he nodded with satisfaction: "You still count on your acquaintance."
Tang Jie couldn't laugh or cry: "Master, you are a young master, and you have great wealth. As for the money, are you so happy?"
"Oh, if you don't cultivate immortals, you don't know if you don't know how to use money." Wei Tian sighed, "How about my Wei family's big business? This bottle of medicine is so expensive that it can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Who can buy it? Get up. Don't you say that it just takes a stove to make alchemy? Why is it so expensive? Isn't it possible to use all the treasures of heaven and earth?"
Tang Jie said with a smile: "The young master does not know that the reason why this medicine is expensive is actually not a matter of material, but the main reason is that it is expensive. After all, immortals and mortals are different. In the eyes of mortals, a piece of spiritual money is just a few taels. Silver is big money. But in the eyes of the immortal, it is about the value of a copper coin, and the spiritual jade is equivalent to the value of silver. So the cultivator does something casually, and it is calculated based on the basic unit of spiritual money. Yes. Offering the immortal with the power of a mortal is like using the income from a servant to provide for the life of the young master. After all, it is incomparable."
"That's true." Wei Tianchong murmured. He also understood the truth, but he had been accustomed to relying on his family, and was accustomed to the value of money from the perspective of mortals, so that everything in front of him was extremely expensive.
If you think of spiritual money as copper coins, then hundreds of thousands of spiritual money are really the case.
Because of this, Xie Fengtang would have ten bottles of elixir and a thousand remedies when he shot it.
For him, this sincere heart is nothing great. Considering what he is trying to do, this effort is too small and too small.
"So we will still have to make money on our own in the future." Tang Jie has persuaded.
"I said so, but now I will also be a spiritual guide, what can I earn for it?" Wei Tianchong said helplessly.
"Of course it is a puppet." Tang Jie said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the carving skills of the young master are almost the same? You should also be able to engage in puppet production. As long as you can make a decent puppet, whether it is for sale It's use, it's all wealth."
"But the puppet needs to refine formations and materials?"
"Formation training is simple. Young master can learn it by himself first, and even if he doesn't, he can ask a senior who knows the way to help. As for the materials, just buy some and do it. Isn't this what Young Master is best at right now?"
The biggest characteristic of puppet art in the world of cultivating immortals is that its own strength has nothing to do with the cultivator itself.
As long as there are enough materials, supplemented by suitable formations, the cultivator can have a powerful puppet that surpasses his own strength and become the most loyal and reliable bodyguard.
Therefore, for college students, puppetry is actually a very practical choice, at least in the early days, it is of great value. It's just that it involves too many categories, and the wealth needed is too large, and not everyone can afford it, so there are not many people who are enthusiastic about it.
But in Tang Jie's view, the two most important technical foundations of puppets: carving and forming formations. He and Wei Tianchong have been solved, and the rest is only the problem of money.
Cha Cha Wei Tianchong also has the ability to meet this condition.
"That's it." Wei Tian touched his chin: "Well, just do as you said. It just happened that my mother just sent me some money a few days ago, so let's use it for this."
"That's it, if it's so, let's buy it now."
Just do what you say, and the three of them went to the shop.
As far as Wei Tianchong is concerned, since it must be done naturally, it must be done well.
He couldn't wait to use top spiritual materials such as mica fine gold to create a powerful and unparalleled battle puppet, so he glanced at the good thing.
It was just that when I saw the price of those materials, I was shocked.
"Hey, why does this fist-big piece of purple turquoise cost two hundred dollars? That hundred-year-old green tongmu actually costs five hundred dollars? Isn't this too expensive?"
Walking in the shop, looking left and then again, Wei Tianchong felt that anything was too expensive, and grabbed Tang Jie's hand and said, "It's amazing, Tang Jie, these things are too expensive. I just calculated it. After a while, do you know how much it would cost me to be a puppet? Eighty thousand! Eighty thousand fortunes!"
Tang Jie smiled bitterly when he heard it: "Little Master, who made you look at those things, you have all the good things in your eyes, and naturally you can't afford it anyway."
"No." Wei Tianchong felt aggrieved: "I also plan to be a third-grade puppet..."
"Second product?" Tang Jie was so angry that he wanted to laugh.
Puppets in the world of cultivating immortals are also divided into ordinary, spiritual, and immortal products. The ordinary products are not equal, that is, they can be formed long ago with ordinary materials and activated by refining formations, such as the tiger made by Wei Tianchong in Weifu. It can be a puppet after being activated with a refining formation, but because it is made of a common wood, its combat power is extremely low, and it is a common product, and it is infinite.
And the spirit grade is divided into nine grades, the nine grade is the highest, and the strength is straight up to Sendai.
The third rank mentioned by Wei Tianchong is equivalent to the existence of the Transcendence Realm.
Hearing that Wei Tianchong wanted to be a third-rank battle puppet, Tang Jie had no choice but to shook his head and said, "Third-rank... you really don't have a big appetite!"
Wei Tianchong was embarrassed by him and scratched his head: "Isn't it said that the biggest advantage of puppets is that they can surpass the refiner, so..."
"So you are aiming at the Transcendence Realm?" Tang Jie couldn't laugh or cry: "Young Master, let's be more down-to-earth. We are just starting from the first grade. The cheaper two or three thousand will be enough. It's done well, too. But it can be used as a Linghu stage."
Hearing that only one Linghu-level helper could be "hired" for spending two thousand fortunes, Wei Tianchong was very unwilling to do so, but he could only nod his head.
Tang Jie took him around the shop, and finally came to a student’s shop, pointed at a piece of burnt wood and said, "Brother, how do you sell this wood?"
The senior brother looked at Tang Jie and said, "Eight hundred dollars."
Tang Jie shook his head: "It's expensive."
The student immediately hummed: "You kid really doesn't know the goods. I am Lei Shanmu. After being bombarded by the sky thunder, I absorbed a trace of lightning power. If it is used to make war puppets, it is born with thunder and lightning attacks. It is extremely powerful."
Tang Jie already laughed and said: "Lei Shan wood is not fake, but it depends on what wood it hits. Every wood has no sex and cannot absorb the power of thunder and lightning. Only spirit wood can be used. Even if it is a spirit wood, there are advantages and disadvantages. It also depends on the attributes. Those who live by attributes are the best, if they are the ones who resist the attributes, they will be worse. It also depends on what kind of thunder is. Finally, it depends on the split. Lei Shumu is precious because it absorbs Lightning attributes, but it doesn’t mean that the more rotten the hack, the better..."
As he said, he pointed to the Lei Shan Mu and said, "This Lei Shan wood should be a century-old water jersey. It is not a good wood in itself. It was struck by lightning and half of it was smashed. What can be used is probably the following part. It is too small to be the backbone, and too much to do the rest. Eight hundred dollars...really worthless."
The student was dumbfounded by what he said, and looked at Tang Jie in surprise: "You can actually see so much?"
"Reading more is good." Tang Jie said lightly, holding up a slap: "Three hundred."
"The price is lower." The student shook his head repeatedly and refused.
The two bargained, and finally fell on the price of five hundred.
Wei Tianchong felt strange holding the piece of wood, and asked Tang Jie, "Didn't you say that Lei Shangmu is too small as the backbone? Why buy it?"
Tang Jie smiled and replied: "It's too small to be a backbone. It means a war puppet equivalent to a human being, but what if it is not that big?"
"Huh?" Wei Tian stunned, "Don't be a humanoid war puppet?"
"Yes, why does it have to be a humanoid?" Tang Jie asked, "The strength of the puppet depends on the material, not the size. However, the cost of making the puppet is often related to the size. The cost of using more materials will naturally High. In that case, why can't we be small and fine?"
Hearing this, Wei Tianchong suddenly became clear-cut, and exclaimed, "You are right!"
Then he reacted again: "No!"
"What's wrong?"
"It's too small to engrave."
If the material is the flesh and blood of the puppet, then the refining formation is the soul of the puppet. These souls must be carved on the puppet through complicated techniques to play a unique role. The smaller the volume, the harder it is to engrave. After all, the space for engraving is limited.
In fact, the level of the puppet depends on the level of the refining array.
The higher the rank of the refining array, the higher the rank of the puppet.
The grade of the refining array depends on the material. The better the material, the better the refining array that can be used.
The cost of materials determines the size of the puppet, and the size of the puppet is directly related to the number of refining formations-under the interaction, the change in the strength of the puppet is also significantly different.
Therefore, it is also a first-grade puppet, which can be completed with two to three thousand coins, or it can be made for seven to eighty thousand.
According to Tang Jie's meaning, it is to be small and refined first.
At this moment, hearing Wei Tianchong say this, Tang Jie smiled and said, "Then find a better skilled formation master."
"Will the effect be too good?" Wei Tianchong asked suspiciously.
Tang Jie said sternly, "Leave it to me, Young Master. I promise that the completed puppet will satisfy you!"
…
After searching the shops and buying the materials needed to make puppets, Wei Tianchong went back to make puppets first.
The actual production of puppets is also quite troublesome. Sculpting is only the basis. Before making it, you must first conceive what kind of puppets are needed and what functions they have, so that the production can be arranged step by step.
Xiang Wei Tianchong didn't know what to do before he bought the materials. It was a kind of layman's performance. Fortunately, Tang Jie had already planned everything for him, so he didn't need to worry about it.
As he got along all the way, Tang Jie, a servant student, now helped Wei Tianchong gradually focus on his cultivation, but instead, everything in life was basically left to Shi Meng. Although reluctant, Shi Meng could only admit his fate, otherwise he would not be able to learn cleansing skills.
Sending Weitian back, Tang Jie also returned to Tao Ranju.
Different from the past, as soon as I stepped into Tao Ranju, I saw the surrounding wind and clouds suddenly change. The original hut disappeared without a trace, and the road became extensive. No longer knowing where to lead, there are countless black clouds covering the sky, and electric light jumping and light are hidden in the sky. Point straight down.
However, after the light hit the score card on Tang Jie's body, Fengyun disappeared without a trace.
This is exactly the serial formation that Xie Fengtang had set up here before, responsible for psychedelic, blocking, attacking and warning.
When you enter this formation, you will only fall into the puzzle first. This is also a setting to prevent students from entering it by mistake. Only after attacking the maze, the subsequent formation will be activated. At that time, the big formation will be fully activated immediately to block incoming enemies and warn the Academy at the same time.
"The formation of this formation is very good, it has a trigger effect, and I must study it when I have time." After walking through the formation, Tang Jie said to himself.
Under normal circumstances, it is not easy to study a well-arranged formation.
But he was the target of the protection of this large formation, and no one would hurt him in this formation. Naturally, he could study as much as he wanted.
But before that, he has to do another thing.
Opening the package, Tang Jie took out some things, which were the materials he had bought when shopping with Wei Tianchong.
When Wei Tianchong bought the materials, Tang Jie also bought some by the way, but they were hidden in the process of helping Wei Tianchong to buy materials, and no one noticed. Wei Tian rushed to ask him, and he only said that it was the materials that he needed to use when refining the formation in the future.
It is indeed the material needed for the formation, but it is not the formation, but the formation.
