The next skill hall that Ningxia passed by was the Bailian Hall, the legendary cradle for cultivating alchemists. The queue of people could be said to go from the street to the end of the alley. At least she walked along the queue for so long and still didn't see the end.
This is too scary, is everyone so eager to become an alchemist?
She knew that the heroine was treated favorably because of her status as an alchemist, and she also knew that there were very few alchemists. But little did he know that the art of alchemy would be so coveted by people.
Ning Xia thought about the two unpopular venues she just went to, and then looked at the threshold that was almost broken in front of her. She deeply felt that there was no difference between the ancients in the world of cultivation and modern people, and they all liked popular majors.
There were too many people, so Ningxia could only avoid the spotlight temporarily and diverted to Fudaofang. There were quite a few people waiting in line at this technique hall, but it was still within the normal range. She waited for a long time.
After observing a few fellow Taoists who came out, Ning Xia began to feel a little restless again. She always felt that this assessment was not a fuel-saving lamp.
This time she was not so stupid. After learning the lesson from Duobao Pavilion, Ningxia decided to shamelessly ask the fellow Taoist who came out about the situation.
However, the fellow Taoists in this world of cultivation are still quite unique, and their attitude is a bit unfriendly? After Ningxia was given cold looks several times, finally a senior brother with a kind face and kind eyes was willing to answer her questions.
"Oh, you're asking this. There are no special requirements for Fu Daofang's assessment. It's just like that. Those with talent will go, and those without talent will leave. Junior sister, don't be nervous." The senior brother in brocade smiled and touched Ningxia's hand. head.
She put down her anxious heart and shook her head uncomfortably. For the sake of a kindhearted person telling her the information, she tolerated touching her head.
Ningxia continued to slowly advance with the team with great expectations. To be honest, making talismans was really the skill she wanted to learn the most - before receiving the inheritance of formations.
In the eyes of a modern person like Ning Xiaoxia, talisman and other treasures have simple raw materials, low cost, and can be carried around. They are essential self-protection weapons in the world of cultivation.
Therefore, she is still looking forward to the assessment of Fu Daofang. She does not need to be proficient or even familiar with it. She is satisfied as long as she can make a rough talisman and sell it for a little money. Ningxia, don’t you think your demands are a bit high?
Soon the cruel reality will shatter her delusion.
The environment inside Fu Daofang is very quiet. There are many white jade bookcases placed in the yard full of peach trees, which is quite interesting to look at.
Entering the house, there is an air of bookishness. It doesn't look like a spiritual practice place, but more like the study room of a scholarly family.
The Ningxia group was arranged next to a separate pear wood desk. The table was clean as if it had been wiped several times and was shiny. In such an atmosphere, she didn't know where to place her hands.
I don't know if it was the influence of the environment, but even the uncle who was doing the assessment seemed to have strong pressure. Ningxia felt as if she was at the scene of a leader's lecture.
"When you come to our Fu Daofang, you must abide by our rules." He glanced at the silent crowd below with satisfaction and said: "Then I will talk about the rules of our assessment. First of all, everyone who participates in the assessment must pay five A piece of spiritual stone is used as a subsidy for materials..."
Will it hurt your conscience to treat them like this? Ningxia was also stunned by the first sentence of the rule, and didn't want the next words to make people kneel down. Is it really okay for a wealthy Six Technics Hall to be so stingy?
I don’t know if it’s good or not. Ningxia had to bite the bullet and could only use the materials exchanged for five spiritual stones to start the assessment. Oh, I forgot to mention, there is only a piece of talisman paper and a writing brush.
It is said that this talisman paper is made by a special process, so it is expensive. The writing brushes were rented to them, and if they were damaged during the assessment, they would have to pay twenty-five spiritual stones.
Ah! Robbery? Anyway, she felt that this talisman paper was no different from ordinary paper. That pen looked like an ordinary low-quality brush! It's still a small bag of broken spirit stones and a dozen.
Ning Xia was calm on the surface but broke down inside and destroyed the only talisman paper. She seemed to have forgotten that her hands were "semi-crippled" when she was forging iron, so she simply destroyed the sky-high price talisman paper with a shake of her hand.
What an injustice! Can you add another talisman paper? Can't she buy it?
"Uncle Master, can I add more talismans?" The chubby boy in front bravely raised his hand and asked before her. This guy entered Baiji Peak with Ningxia, and his name seems to be Xie Feng.
When they were in the Fengwu Hall, Ningxia successfully remembered him because of his protagonist-like name and contrasting appearance. What a good man!
"Okay, five spiritual stones a piece." That's enough. Talking about money hurts feelings. Fu Daofang, you will lose her if you do this again!
After spending five spiritual stones again and failing, Ningxia gave in and couldn't afford to make talismans. If you keep trying, maybe the few spiritual stones that are already there will bottom out.
Ning Xiaoxia, who failed because of poverty, left Fu Daofang with a pale face, and was greeted by a long line of expectant examiners.
"..." She finally understood why the faces of the people who came out just now were all bad. When she saw that there was a large group of people outside waiting to take the cheating assessment just now, her stomach hurt a little.
So the Taoist fellow in Jinyi who answered her just now is probably extremely rich? ! She was stupid for believing it!
Ningxia's back is walking on the road bleakly. What is this called? Is it bad to go out? Not only were the five spiritual stones obtained in vain gone, but five more were attached, which was inhumane.
From the assessment at Ten Thousand Beasts Garden this morning to the Fu Daofang just now, whether or not he passed the assessment was secondary, but why do he always encounter strange things?
Finally, she walked and arrived at her final destination, an unattractive courtyard with a plaque at the front door that read "Formation Hall". But why is there no one in this technique hall?
