"Old man Mo, the Xuangu Ice Crystal that emitted the wind is yours." As soon as he saw the people, Suzaku opened his mouth, "Is there anything else, give me two pieces." ”
Jing Chen, "......" is such a faceless and skinless guy who asks someone for something as soon as he opens his mouth, I don't know!
"Okay." Mo Fei replied simply, "When you get the first place in this ice exhibition, I will present it with both hands." ”
He turned around, his gaze fell on Jing Chen and Asura, and a burst of light erupted in his eyes, "Where did you find the baby, give me the person, and the Xuangu Ice Crystal belongs to you!" ”
Suzaku pouted, this sale and purchase loss is big.
Jing Chen is a disciple he has been waiting for for thousands of years, and although there are few Xuangu Ice Crystals, when he completes Nirvana, he can go to the Fenggu Hall to find it by himself.
"Hmph, even if I agree." Suzaku raised his chin slightly, arrogant but couldn't hide his smugness, "At the beginning, my apprentice cried and begged to worship me as a teacher, how could he fall in love with you, a bad old man." ”
Why don't I understand a word of what you said...... Jing Chen's gaze turned to the old man who was elegantly dressed and had wise eyes...... Please send me away.
Jing Chen's little wish Suzaku naturally couldn't help him realize it, but he saw that Mo Fei was silent, thinking that he had the upper hand, and the whole person rippled, and said, "I have a gift for apprentices after a while, and your congratulatory gift can't be lighter than the one you gave to Gu Yi." ”
Jing Chen hid his face, daring to say that he was asking for gifts more blatantly.
Mo Fei smiled at the corner of his mouth and nodded slightly.
At their level, a congratulatory gift is nothing more than something outside the body, not to mention that he has a good relationship with Suzaku, and he knows that the other party has only accepted such an apprentice for thousands of years, of course he will not be polite.
But the surging heavenly fire aura on Jing Chen and Asura's bodies really made him love talents, and the previous sentence of exchanging Xuangu Ice Crystal was by no means a joke.
Obviously, the two heaven-level talisman masters were talking and arguing, but Jing Chen couldn't interject at all, and stood silently to the side to make a wallflower.
After not seeing each other for many years, the two finally dismantled each other, and Mo Fei invited people to his residence on the ice tower.
Walking into the hazy maze of the same direction again, the six senses were obscured, only the back of Mo Fei walking slowly not far ahead.
When I became a little conscious, I just started to explore, and my face suddenly opened up.
There are no display cases and wandering crowds, and a small square courtyard is located.
It is also snow-white with the ice tower, the building structure is calm and atmospheric, and there is no lack of refreshing and exquisite carvings in the corners and hidden places, the knife skills are sharp and concise, and the various beast shapes carved on it are about to come out.
Jing Chen took out the carving of the castle protection beast that he got when he first entered the exhibition, and observed it carefully, and found that it was indeed not his illusion, but the two came from the same source.
That is, the carver of the castle guard is the same person who built the house.
Then his eyes fell on Mo Fei again, because there was no one else in the courtyard, but there were ice sculptures scattered on the open space that had not yet been completed, or were only half-carved, and the traces were extremely new.
Then the answer of the engraver is obvious.
Suzaku seemed to have something to say to Mo Fei, and the two entered the inner hall and left Jingchen in the hall.
"Yikes." Asura shrunk in Jing Chen's arms, although the ice tower was not cold, his eyes were full of white, but he was extremely uncomfortable, and it was rare to be quiet.
Jing Chen touched Asura's head and walked around the hall.
In fact, the room is not big, and you can see it all at a glance.
If you want to talk about any characteristics, I think it is the large and small Xiaoice sculptures placed around, all of which are lifelike.
Especially the one in the center of the quadrangular courtyard, which is more than ten meters high, is about the same size carving of some kind of demon beast, and when it gets closer, the surging aura comes to the face.
Jing Chen only felt that a snowfield was unfolding in front of him, and on it were chasing and hunting demon beasts.
Each leap showed the perfect lines of the beast's muscle contractions, and each claw was powerful and powerful, as if it could tear through the void.
Inner nave.
The layout in the room must be a lot more attentive than the outside, compared to the Qinglong residence, there is leisure everywhere here, as if every object has been carefully measured, and there is a faint way of heaven and earth.
Suzaku sat opposite the tea house, his eyes were rolling around, and he was finally attracted by Mo Fei's pot of tea, and sniffed hard, "The tip of the Xueshan needle in the Lingmu Realm has been a hundred years." ”
Mo Fei smiled and said nothing, only said, "If you don't beat me up with the idea of the collection in the house, I can give you two taels." ”
Suzaku immediately raised his eyebrows and slapped the table, "I'm such an unparticular person, at least five taels!" ”
"Three or two."
"Four, two, five!"
"Three, two, six, at most." Old God Mo Fei was holding the teacup freely.
"Deal!" When the words fell, Suzaku was remorseful, why did he forget that he was still an apprentice, and taking out a random thing in this room to Jing Chen was extremely inspiring for refining weapons, and it was a loss.
"By the way, you haven't given the elders a meeting gift for my newly adopted apprentice." Suzaku rolled his eyes, "You can't pay the bill, you have to let me take the things in the house." ”
Then there was another gag, and since he came, Suzaku felt that he had to catch two pieces, and his empty hands were too faceless.
After talking for a while, the two finally got to the point.
"The seal of the Beast Control Sect has been loosened." Suzaku said, "Before I came here, I went to Sin City, and the situation there was okay, but I don't know how the other places are. ”
"Have you seen the Four Voids Venerable?" Mo Fei raised his eyes.
"Yes." Suzaku responded, as if he remembered something, and stopped talking, "It's just ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted, "Caution." After that, Mo Fei slowly changed the topic, "I can leave you one of the top ten places this year." ”
The claw shadow is very huge, and it is in front of you in an instant, and the four claw marks are extremely sharp, locking all the dodge space, and you can't dodge it at all!
Jing Chen took a step back abruptly and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Look at the ice sculpture again, it is still intact.
"This is the power of the Celestial Rune?" Jing Chen didn't sense any formation from above.
The appearance of the illusion was only due to the fact that Mo Fei incorporated a trace of spiritual power into the carving, even if it was not deliberate on his part.
"It's just scratching the surface." The Wind Festival scoffed.
Jing Chen shook his head, not daring to get any closer, and looked up in confusion when he saw the Asura in his arms.
Suzaku soon came out of the hall, and Mo Fei was nowhere to be seen.
Consciously climbing onto Jing Chen's back, Suzaku yawned, "I'm tired of being a teacher." ”
So does this mean that you can go home? Jing Chen helplessly lifted the person up.
As soon as I walked through the gate of the courtyard, the sound of everyone talking came to my ears.
Jing Chen was stunned for a moment, and looked back, where were there still houses and tiles, and there were columns of display cabinets around him, and people kept passing by him, taking a quick look, and did not stop.
When he returned to the rented hut in Ice Wave City, Suzaku took out a spar and threw it to Jing Chen, "This is the ice condensing chalcedony from last time, I asked the old guy to refine it, and I will use it for you in this ice exhibition." ”
It is slightly cool to start, and the temperature is no different from ordinary ice condensation, but the color is particularly deep, almost purple blue, crystal clear from the outside to the inside.
At a glance, one can see how the ice pith is different from other ice stones.
Cryolite is ore, while ice pith is more like ice.
"Refining?" Jing Chen was surprised, "Are you sure you want to use it in this ice exhibition?" ”
In fact, the object he conceived was only a small object, which was acceptable to reach the top ten, but it was a bit difficult to get the first place.
If it is refined with ice pith, it will inevitably be a bit tyrannical.
"Otherwise, I'll buy it and come back and do something." Suzaku pursed his lips and said nonchalantly, "If it weren't for the rules that limited the main material, there would still be ...... for the teacher Damn, that old guy wouldn't have put on such a competition just to increase the income of the mining area, right?! ”
Oops I've been pitted! Suzaku slapped his thigh, no wonder he took chalcedony and asked Mo Fei to refine it when the old guy was so simple, and his feelings were "supporting services"!
"......" Jing Chen silently put away the ice pith. Well, he really didn't hear anything.
The Ice Weapon Exhibition will last for three days, and the fourth day will start the trial competition, which will take another three days.
In other words, wait until the seventh day until the people vote, so as to know who the Xuangu Ice Crystal Flower will be.
In the two days of waiting for the game to start, Jing Chen was not idle. With the ice chalcedony in hand, the gadget that was ready to be refined could naturally be improved and refined.
Maybe there's a real chance of getting the top spot.
At that time, he will have enough materials to refine the part of the chess pieces that belong to water in the Vientiane Nine Chess, and when he needs to fight, the talisman will no longer be overstretched.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for the refining competition.
The kilometer centered on the ice tower is forbidden to those who have a token to enter.
Suzaku and Asura, like most people, were kept out because the talismans displayed on the seventh day needed to be refined on the spot, and in order not to affect the refiner's performance, the rest of the idle people were forbidden to enter.
The materials were in the storage ring, and Jing Chen went up to the ice tower alone.
The platform has shrunk much from what you saw on the first day of the exhibition, and the display cases have long since been removed and turned into numbered independent venues, bounded by nine small ice condensation stones at the edges.
After finding the place according to the number on the token, Jing Chen realized that the nine ice stones were not just for demarcation.
There is a closed isolation formation in each small area, making the space completely independent.
When a person enters it, it is like entering a secret room, but when you look at it from the outside, you can see what the people inside are doing, which means that the viewability of this secret room is one-sided.
Sit down slightly, and in front of you is a furnace, which can be borrowed by a refiner who does not have a furnace.
Immediately afterward, the organizer's explanation of the rules came from the ears, and some anxious monks had already begun to refine the weapons.
Jing Chen's heart sank, and he took out the ice condensing chalcedony in the storage ring.
Outside the ice tower, Suzaku smiled at the ignorant Asura on his back, turned around and walked out of the crowd, "I'm going to train you little guy next." "The smile is evil.
Thousands of miles away in the ice condensate mining area.
The cave is not as dirty and black as imagined, but the stone walls are white, shiny and shiny, like a passage opened up by someone with ice sealing.
The clanging sound of mining was non-stop, and the old man put down the mining shovel and sat down to make up two sips of water.
That's when his years of mining career made him feel that something was wrong.
There was a sound of sucking from the depths of the mine, intermittently, as if the ball had been punctured and deflated, which was extremely weird.
"Who?!" The old man paused, a look of horror flashed on his face, and he staggered to his feet and took a few steps back.
The pumping sound did not stop, but became louder and louder, like a dilapidated bellows being pulled, harsh but very regular.
Until, several people near the mine noticed something unusual.
"Roar!" The dust that erupted from the mine engulfed everyone like a beast's mouth.
The moment came so suddenly that no one had time to send out a distress signal.
Only Mo Fei on the ice tower seemed to feel something, tilting his head in the direction of the mining area, his brows furrowed slightly.
