The teaching lasted for a whole day, and Chen Ping felt that he was full of knowledge.
'Is this a half-step into the herbalist industry? , Chen Ping laughed at himself.
Too many skills don't overwhelm the body.
Although I would not go out to collect medicine easily.
But it never hurts to learn a little more.
On the way to Black Rock City, when I was hunting pangolin beasts, I didn't recognize the Seven Emotion Fruits in the cave. If he encounters a monster again now, he will know a lot about it.
Tuition ends.
Chen Ping went to Zhongyangfang City alone.
Many shops in Luoyue City have not reopened since the disaster, such as the elixir shop. However, the magic weapon shop, robe shop, and book book shop opened early and have continued to do so.
Chen Ping entered the magic weapon shop and wanted to buy another set of instruments for the Vientiane Array and the Five Elements Psychedelic Array.
When you are about to go out, if you really need to stay out overnight, two sets of self-defense equipment are very valuable.
Regrettably.
It's gone.
Even the formation equipment is sold out? Chen Ping was shocked:
"When will the supply be available again?"
The shopkeeper regretted:
"I'm afraid we may run out of supplies."
"Why?" Chen Ping was puzzled.
Refining weapons is different from talismans. During the Qi training period, a monk can draw talismans and become a true talisman master. However, weapon refining is relatively high-end and can only be done by building a foundation.
Chen Ping knew this.
The large Luoyue City has more than 200 foundations, not to mention two golden elixirs. Is it impossible to refine weapons? As long as there is demand, these foundation-building spiritual stones will not make any money?
Isn’t refining weapons better than going out to hunt animals?
It's unreasonable.
However, the shopkeeper doesn't seem to know the specific situation, or maybe he knows something but is unwilling to talk more about it.
Chen Ping could only give up.
It wasn't until the next day when Yun Haitang sent the Yun Family Hall Master's medicine collection notes that Chen Ping asked about it again that he learned the general situation.
Lingxiao Sect originally did not have many foundations, and there were even fewer formation masters. There was not much demand for formation equipment. Formation equipment is expensive, costing nearly a hundred medium-grade spiritual stones. Therefore, there is never much inventory of formation equipment in the shop.
When Luoyue City's magic weapon shop reopened, Luoyue City was still in a precarious environment. In this case, the demand for defensive formation equipment has greatly increased.
The store's supplies were quickly exhausted.
Among the foundation-building seniors of Luoyue City, there were indeed several weapon refiners, which allowed them to make a lot of money in the early days.
However, with the lack of Awakening Pills, the demonic intent grew and grew, and the demonic aura in the aura became increasingly intense. Even if the weapon refiner holds a large number of spiritual stones, he cannot obtain the Awakening Pill, and his cultivation is gradually hindered.
Refining equipment is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive job. A set of first-level formation equipment usually takes more than ten or even dozens of days to complete.
Not only that, refining array instruments is different from refining other magic instruments.
Refining array equipment requires extracting earth fire.
This process requires a great deal of spiritual energy from the weapon refiner, and requires the use of the soul to communicate with the earth spirit.
Under normal circumstances, this is no problem, it's just a little bit harder.
However, when demonic intentions are growing and cultivation is blocked, laboring to extract earth fire will only further deplete oneself and accelerate the growth of demonic intentions.
Accelerate foundation damage.
In this situation.
Who dares to refine the tools of the formation at will?
It is better to refine cheaper ordinary magic weapons, or even hunt animals and collect medicines.
"Chen Daoyou, do you want a set of tools for the Vientiane Formation and the Five Elements Psychedelic Formation?" Yun Haitang turned slightly to the side with a cold face.
Chen Ping smiled and said:
"Yeah, I originally wanted to buy one or two self-defense sets, but I didn't expect them to be gone."
Yun Haitang remembered that she still had a few sets of defensive formation equipment, but in the past few months, Luoyue City was in chaos, and the demand for such defensive formations had increased greatly. She
I couldn't help but help people arrange it out.
I was secretly happy at that time.
After all, I earned twice as much spiritual stone as the normal price.
Now that I think about it, it was a bit hasty.
More expensive now.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but blush with shame.
After a pause, he said:
"I do know a weapon refiner, but he may not be willing to refine weapons. If Fellow Daoist Chen needs it, I can introduce him to you."
"That's great!"
"..."
When Yun Haitang was free, he took Chen Ping to visit the foundation-building monk. His name was Liao Xiafu, and he was a guest of another small sect in the Qingyun Region. Due to a sneak attack by demonic cultivators, the sect fell, so he came to Luoyue City to settle down.
Now he is also one of the more than 200 foundations in Luoyue City.
Chen Ping was not only a little surprised when he saw Liao Xiafu, this old man gave him the same feeling as Ouyang Hong.
The whole body smells of decay.
I'm afraid I'm going to die soon.
Liao Xiafu is also a casual cultivator, but he is not alone. He is two hundred years old and has a six or seven-year-old son.
Yes, a six or seven year old son.
Seeing Yun Haitang and Chen Ping coming to visit, Liao Xiafu stood up to greet them and made tea for them.
After hearing Yun Haitang's explanation of his intention, Liao Xiafu flatly shook his head and refused:
"At my age, coupled with the growth of demonic power, it is no longer possible to repair the foundation. I am afraid that I will not live for a year or two, so what is the use of earning those spiritual stones? ...Oh, I feel sorry for my little son. After my death, I didn’t even have anyone to take care of him.”
"Fellow Daoist Yun, Fellow Daoist Chen, I'm really sorry."
Yun Haitang wanted to say something else.
Chen Ping secretly tugged on the hem of her robe, indicating that there was no need to say anything more, and then stood up to leave:
"Then I won't disturb Fellow Daoist Liao."
He pulled Yun Haitang away with a confused look on his face.
Chen Ping saw in Liao Shangfu's eyes his indifference to death, as well as his infinite doting, worry and reluctance for his son.
No wonder, old age brings children.
Who wouldn't be a treasure?
The problem is that Liao Xiafu is old, but his son has not grown up. At this time, he will definitely be thinking about how to find a way out for his son.
How could Chen Ping be able to take on such a heavy responsibility?
Behind Chen Ping, Liao Shangfu reached out his hand slightly and opened his mouth slightly, wanting to keep Chen Ping and Yun Haitang.
But in the end he didn’t speak
Just sighed slightly.
He didn't really want to reject Chen Ping, he just wanted to increase some bargaining chips. When it comes to his situation, it still depends on whether the foundation will be further damaged. But he hoped to use this as a condition to ask Chen Ping and Yun Haitang to take care of his son after his death.
I didn't expect Chen Ping to leave so simply.
"Oh, that's all. It's all life!"
…
Chen Ping came out of Liao Xiafu's house and walked in the cold wind. He glanced inadvertently and saw Yun Haitang's cheeks were flushed and she seemed to be breathing quickly.
It feels strange:
"What's wrong?"
Yun Haitang glanced at Chen Ping, then immediately turned away, his face even redder, and his voice was soft:
"You...you...still holding my hand."
"Ah?... I just said why my hands are not cold." Chen Ping grinned: "Sorry, I was so anxious to pull you out that I forgot to let go."
This hand…
...mistake me.
Yun Haitang moved his hand that Chen Ping let go of, hesitated, and finally put it back into his sleeve.
Walking in silence.
…
Chen Ping returned to the house and looked through the herb collection notes that Yun Haitang had borrowed. They were full of useful information.
The various drug-finding techniques are very nuanced.
In every industry, as long as you want to achieve perfection, it is not easy. There is a lot of knowledge.
After looking at it for a while, I put it on again
Practice while inserting.
Don't worry, it will still grow throughout the winter. Winter is not the best time to collect herbs. At least you have to wait until the ice melts.
This is just right, you can concentrate on practicing.
Third Turn Qing Yuan Gong +1, +1,…
