Wang Ban sighed and continued: "What a pity. In the past thousand years, several emperors have entered Yunmeng Mountain, but they have never been able to crack the [Three Emperors Formation]."
"Is this happening? Why haven't I heard of it?" Fan Li didn't believe it.
The original owner of the body he traveled through was also considered to be extremely knowledgeable.
Before my group, had an emperor ever visited Yunmeng Mountain?
Why have I never read about it in a book?
"It's only normal if you haven't heard of it."
"Throughout the ages, how many emperors have been able to put down their dignity and admit that they have failed or made mistakes?"
"It's like the Edict of Sin, a rare thing that can only be seen once in a thousand years."
After Wang Ban finished speaking, he seemed to regret a little and looked at Fan Li cautiously.
Seeing his calm expression, I dared to continue speaking.
"I remember very clearly that two of the later kings of the Chu Dynasty have been to Yunmeng Mountain."
"One of them relied on the Overlord Spear to reach the [Three Emperors Formation]."
"The other one hasn't even broken through the Five Elements Formation."
Fan Li understood instantly, but was speechless.
Face, face again.
The [Three Emperors Formation] is a matter of face. There is no record of emperors visiting Yunmeng Mountain in the past dynasties. It is also a matter of face, because they all failed to enter the formation.
"A bunch of idiots and selfish people."
"Even if you record your own failures, future generations can learn from them. What if they succeed?"
Fan Li complained in his mind while looking Wang Ban up and down.
"So, your parents ascended to the immortal world, and then you succeeded the third generation of Guiguzi?"
Unexpectedly, Wang Ban shook his head.
"Bound by the [Three Emperors Formation], my parents cannot leave the top of Yunmeng Mountain. Their cultivation realm has stopped at the Mahayana realm, and they have not been able to survive the catastrophe."
"Finally, a hundred years ago, both elders passed away."
As he said this, a few tears fell down Wang Ban's honest face.
Fan Li was trying to comfort him, but suddenly he felt something was wrong.
"A hundred years ago?"
"Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Zhou Yu...and Yichuan, don't they call themselves disciples of Guigu?"
"Except Yichuan, how old are the other three guys?"
Fan Li looked Wang Ban up and down.
This guy doesn't look like a famous teacher!
But from a time perspective, it was impossible for those four people to be disciples of the second generation Gui Gu.
"My grandfather learned from hundreds of schools of thought, which is rare in ancient times."
"Once my father became enlightened, his knowledge and practice spread rapidly."
"Guigu has been passed down to my generation, but it has not been able to recreate the style of its ancestors."
"Not only can I not compare with my grandfather, but my father is also far inferior."
"An unworthy descendant like me who has insulted the family tradition is not worthy of calling myself Guigu..."
Fan Li couldn't bear to hear that Wang Ban kept denying himself.
He was about to say a few words of comfort when he heard Wang Ban continue:
"I refined my Qi when I was one year old, built my foundation at the age of three, formed the golden elixir at the age of six, formed the Nascent Soul at the age of ten, and transformed into a god at the age of fifteen."
"It wasn't until I was twenty-two years old that I entered the Hedao realm."
"woo woo woo woo……"
"My grandfather and father were so amazing and talented back then, yet they gave birth to unworthy descendants like me who entered Hedao at the age of twenty-two."
"Mr. Jin, what do you mean by my living?"
Fan Li: "???"
After hearing what Wang Ban said, Fan Li felt that his life was meaningless.
At the age of twenty-two, in the Hedao realm, what exactly was he dissatisfied with!
For a moment, Fan Li really wanted to pick Wang Ban with a sword.
So angry!
Fan Li pressed his right hand to the hilt of his sword when he saw a figure walking out of the courtyard in the distance.
When the man walked, he also made strange noises like "crunching" and "crunching".
When he got closer, Fan Li finally saw clearly that what was coming was actually a doll?
The doll is exquisitely made, with a body shape like a girl, very flexible movements, and a faint aura.
Reiki?
Fan Li took a closer look and found that the puppet girl's realm was still higher than his own. Could it be that she was in the Golden Core realm? ?
"Mr. Jin, please have tea." Wang Ban said with a tearful voice.
How could Fan Li be in the mood to drink tea?
He kept staring at the doll, but Wang Ban misunderstood it.
He said shyly: "I have not been good at cultivation since I was a child, but I prefer the mechanism art. I have made a lot of these mechanism dolls. I am responsible for washing, folding quilts, cleaning, cooking, etc. on weekdays."
Mechanism?
Like Lu Fubao?
No, Wang Ban's skills in mechanism skills are obviously far superior to Lu Fubao!
"Is it a golden elixir?"
"Nascent Soul."
Wang Ban shook his head, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone, as if he had been underestimated by Fan Li.
Fan Li swallowed hard.
How could he underestimate Wang Ban?
Even the golden elixir stage doll is shocking enough!
And judging from Wang Ban’s tone, there are quite a few!
Fan Li immediately thought of a keyword: mass production!
"Old Wang, let me ask you something!" Fan Li said excitedly.
"Well, you say?"
"How many of these dolls can you make? No, I mean, can they be mass-produced?"
"Mass production?"
Wang Ban had never heard of such a word, but he understood the meaning.
He nodded: "As long as there are enough materials, of course you can. However, mechanism skills are very expensive..."
Fan Li slapped Wang Ban's shoulders heavily with both hands!
"money is not a problem."
How many resources can a Yunmeng Mountain produce?
But looking at the entire Chu Kingdom, all the mountains, rivers and rivers within the country's borders were available for Fan Li to use at his will.
What resources are needed for mass production?
What a joke!
Fan Li asked again: "Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Guo Jia, and Yi Chuan are all your students?"
"yes."
"After my parents passed away, I wanted to imitate my ancestors and have a few disciples."
Preaching and receiving vocations are obviously a topic that Ban Wang is not interested in.
He grimaced as he recalled.
"Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, and Guo Jia are all very smart. I take the notes left by my grandfather and father and read a sentence, and they can understand it."
"Seeing how successful they were in their studies, for a while I even gave up on the mechanics and thought of leading a group of apprentices."
"Unexpectedly, Rushan's disciples became more and more disgraceful later on, and their character and qualifications were extremely poor!"
"Especially that Yichuan. I have taught him for more than ten years, and what I have learned is only about 30% of what Zhuge Liang and his friends did. I was so angry that I kicked him out of Yunmeng Mountain."
Wang Banzhen became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, his face turned red.
But he was a wilted cucumber after all, and he immediately became discouraged.
"After driving Yi Chuan away, I will continue to focus on the machine arts."
“After all, it’s something you’re interested in, and you’ll be happier if you do it.”
"It's a pity that there are too few materials in the mountains. I designed many machine drawings, but the materials are only enough to make these [maids]."
After all, it’s a Nascent Soul doll, but it doesn’t have a domineering name?
Maid?
It's really aggrieved.
Fan Li asked: "How many of these Nascent Soul dolls have you made?"
"Fifty." Wang Ban replied casually.
Fan Li's mouth twitched.
Good guy!
Fifty Yuanying realm men serving tea and pouring water were sent to raid the Dachu Palace. With any luck, they could kill Xiang Chong.
"By the way, Lord Jin."
"Since you broke the [Three Emperors Formation], Wang Ban is willing to serve you from now on. But you are a Chu minister. From now on, should Wang Ban be loyal to you or to the Emperor of Chu?"
Wang Ban asked sincerely.
He didn't have any ideas. No matter what Fan Li arranged, he would abide by it.
Even when Fan Li said, "Money is not a problem," Wang Ban was already eager to go down the mountain as soon as possible.
"Ahem, Lao Wang, regarding your allegiance..."
Fan Li just wanted to say a few words for the occasion, such as that my family, Fan, has been favored by the emperor for generations.
But before he opened his mouth, he heard a 'ding' sound.
So familiar.
It’s a system prompt!
"Congratulations to the host, for completing the task [Talent Recruitment]."
"Mission reward: founding of the country."
Fan Li was silent for a long time.
"Old Wang, you only need to be loyal to me..."
