Chapter 10: The Difficult Path of the Skeleton Restorer!
"Come on, let's start with the simplest undead creatures, let's start with this skull snake, which is made up of seventy-five bones."
Lao Di took He Ruozhi to the edge of the battlefield, and a bone snake stiffened motionless on the battlefield.
"This bone snake has been robbed of its soul by light magic, and its body is still intact, so it is very suitable as a teaching material. Your lesson is to take all the bones apart, look at them one by one, and put them back together.
"This, so difficult?"
He Ruozhi carefully picked up the bone snake, but he didn't expect this thing to be so fragile, and it fell to the ground like a broken frame when he touched the bone slightly.
"Oops!" He Ruozhi looked at the scattered bones in frustration.
Lao Di squatted down, put on leather gloves on both hands, and said slowly: "Look carefully, I'll show you in slow motion first, and then use fast techniques to complete the whole set of movements." ”
He Ruozhi nodded, staring at Lao Di's technique with wide eyes.
The old skeleton took a deep breath, and the yellowish ghost fire in his eyes shrank into a small dot for a moment, and then exploded violently.
"Let's go!"
Lao Di's hands seemed to have turned into a gray mist, and he couldn't tell the specific position of the ten fingers at all, only listening to the crisp and crisp sound of the skeleton clicking, the whole bone snake appeared again!
"This ...... Is it 'slow motion'? He Ruozhi was stunned.
Lao Di nodded very sincerely.
"Can you slow down a little more, use super super super super slow motion, please, Lao Di!"
……
After Lao Di left, He Ruozhi began to think slowly about the bone snakes scattered all over the place.
Old Di's lightning-fast movements still echoed in his mind, causing him to have an indescribable admiration.
You must know that in the mechanical maintenance industry, no matter how rich the theoretical knowledge of the scholars, can not compare with a master with excellent skills, this kind of practical experience of seniors, is definitely He Ruozhi This kind of junior learning example.
He Ruozhi has seen so many highly skilled mechanics since he was a child, and they may be able to control large electronic instruments, but in terms of hand speed alone, absolutely no one can surpass Lao Di!
Lao Di later practiced five more times, and it was not until the end that He Ruozhi barely managed to see Lao Di's movements clearly.
According to Lao Di, this is already his slowest limit, no matter how much his consciousness is controlled, it is impossible for his body to slow down anymore.
He Ruozhi's heart lit a fire!
If you can master this method, then when you return to the human world, you can become a superb mechanical repairman!
It's much more practical than learning any skeleton martial arts!
So He Ruozhi didn't rest for a moment, just frowned and stared at the bone snake tightly.
He watched motionless for three days and three nights, never even standing up in between.
The size, color, hardness, and position of the seventy-five bones had been firmly imprinted in He Ruozhi's mind.
He Ruozhi suddenly reached out and messed up all the bones, piled them up, and then slowly put them back in their original positions.
There was nothing wrong with it!
He Ruozhi nodded with satisfaction and began the difficult assembly process.
He started with a simple spine and tail, and divided the entire bone snake into more than a dozen parts, each of which consisted of five or six small bones.
The small bones are made into simple parts, which are then put together to form a complete bone.
It sounds very simple, but it is not so easy to do it, because bones are different from machinery, and machines can use rivets or welding methods when splicing, while bones are connected to each other by structural bending, and the slightest carelessness will completely fall apart.
Fortunately, He Ruozhi has time.
Anyway, he can't do anything in this canyon, and mechanical maintenance happens to be what he likes, He Ruozhi's whole mind is immersed in the small bone snake, and every day in addition to absorbing some resentment, it is to assemble the bone snake, and he can't even take care of sleeping.
"That's how it should be...... This bone serves as a link between the upper and lower body...... But if you rub it here a little more, it should increase the friction of the body and increase the crawling speed......"
He Ruozhi didn't know that when he was obsessed with bone assembly, the bone dragon Geralt had woken up twice.
The irascible bone dragon didn't get angry, it looked at He Ruozhi who was studying hard, snorted in his nose, flapped his wings in boredom, and fell asleep with his head down.
What stupid human beings, what a ...... O hardworking humans!
Two months passed quickly, He Ruozhi's hands were already covered with calluses, and the fingerprints were not visible by rubbing, and the skin on them didn't know how many times it had been wiped off, and I don't know how many times it had grown.
That bone snake is finally complete!
"Lao Di, Lao Di—" He Ruozhi began to summon the old skeleton with some shame.
Lao Di crawled out of the ground hunched over, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong with the young man, have you encountered any difficulties?" ”
He didn't know why this young man summoned himself now, according to the usual practice, it would take about three years for an apprentice who had never been exposed to bone repair to complete a bone snake repair, and even Lao Di himself, because of his experience in striking iron, had spent a full year to complete his first work.
He Ruozhi lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Lao Di, I can't use your method to complete the bone snake." ”
"Oh?" Lao Di said, "Don't be discouraged, young man, the first time is always very difficult, or I'll show you again?" ”
He Ruozhi shook his head and said cautiously: "Well, here's the thing, I really can't repair the bone snake with seventy-five bones, because I don't think these bones are enough to support the bone snake to move in the most efficient way, so I polished some of the bones, and threw away some others, and then I found some suitable bones in the battlefield and modified them, so it took a total of one hundred and twenty-seven bones to complete the final assembly." ”
He Ruozhi blushed and took out the final work.
"What!"
Lao Di was completely stunned, the bones of his whole body trembled in disbelief, and he took over He Ruozhi's work in a trembling manner.
This bone snake looks narrow and ferocious, and compared with when Lao Di took it out, it presents a more streamlined and light body, and a lot of auxiliary bones are added to the joints, making the final movement more efficient and better protecting the body.
The mouth, which used to have only two teeth, has been transformed into a sinister triangle, and a total of eight sharp teeth in the mouth are shiny and sharp as jagged teeth.
Lao Di is also an expert, so he can naturally see the doorway, and he almost can't control his surprise and scream.
It's perfect!
Lao Di sent a wisp of soul power into the body of the bone snake, and the bone snake immediately became shiny, crawling quickly on the sand, and even the sound was much weaker, which was very suitable for secret assassination.
Lao Di was completely speechless.
He Ruozhi saw that the old skeleton was silent, and thought that Lao Di was very disappointed in himself. He was very embarrassed and said: "I'm sorry Lao Di, I haven't been very smart since I was a child, and I can't finish such a simple thing for two months, I really live up to your expectations......"
Lao Di smiled bitterly, he really didn't know what to say, Lao Di sighed, and depressedly withdrew his soul power.
"Now why don't you take it apart and reassemble it?" Lao Di wanted to see how He Ruozhi did it.
"Oh."
As soon as it came to the stage of actual operation, He Ruozhi became excited.
He stared at the stiff bone snake, his hands frozen in mid-air, and even his breathing was much weaker, like a dead corpse.
The intact bone snake had gradually decomposed and decomposed in his eyes...... Turned into individual bones.
Half a minute passed, and Lao Di was about to ask out loud, when He Ruozhi suddenly snorted softly, and his hands suddenly moved.
His movements are not as skilled and fast as Lao Di, but his posture is extremely gentle and delicate, as if there are not cold bones under his hands, but the warm skin of his lover.
If Lao Di's movements are a dazzling storm, then He Ruozhi's movements can only be described as a gentle breeze.
The breeze that can't be seen or touched, but inadvertently blows the leaves on every branch!
Finish!
It took less than three minutes for the bone snake to be disassembled into separate pieces of bone.
Now Lao Di can see more clearly, many of the bones are very different from the original, some have been polished and transformed, and some have been replaced by more suitable parts.
Lao Di was stunned: "Where did you learn these methods?" ”
He Ruozhi smiled embarrassedly: "These are all some methods taught in school, I usually don't listen carefully, what I learned is just some skin, and now I know where the fun lies." ”
For an introvert like He Ruozhi, inanimate bones and machinery are much more appealing than the deceitful real world.
Lao Di continued to ask: "Why are you acting so ...... So gentle? ”
He Ruozhi touched the back of his head: "I don't know, I just think...... Each bone has a soul of its own, and it is only by dictating them together with a gentle hand that these bones willingly exert all their strength. ”
"Every bone has a ...... Your own soul? ”
Lao Di repeated in despair, and suddenly laughed: "I understand, I finally understand, every bone has its own soul, this is the biggest secret of bone repair, I understand!" ”
There was a flash of ghost fire in his eyes, and he also learned He Ruozhi's gentle movements to reassemble the scattered bones.
This time, the time was much slower than before, Lao Di quietly realized the temperature and feeling between the bones and bones, and completely let go of his soul fire, so that the bones naturally combined together.
The Bone Serpent is back!
"That's amazing!" He Ruozhi couldn't help but scream.
This modified version of the bone snake, Lao Di only saw that he had disassembled it once, and he was able to completely assemble it with his own experience, which is not bad at all, which shows that he is indeed a well-deserved skilled craftsman!
Lao Di smiled slightly: "Since the course of the bone snake has been completed, then let's have something more complicated, the bone dog comes out!" ”
A bone dog missing a leg appeared in front of Lao Di.
"Your task this time is to completely understand this skull dog, and then use the discarded bones over there to make a suitable hind leg for it, and see my disassembly process clearly, there is only one demonstration!"
Lao Di's hands were running at high speed again.
As a result, He Ruozhi once again entered the strange world of bone transformation......
