Chapter 7: The Palace of the Carving Formation

Sitting in the carriage back to Nangong Ze's house, Yang Cheng was full of thoughts.

In the entrance session of Handan College, Yang Cheng, who was only eight years old, was excited and worried.

If he couldn't be admitted to Handan Academy, wouldn't it be even more difficult for him to see his father? Although Mayor Nangong Ze took care of Yang Cheng in the face of his father, this kind of feeling under the fence was not pleasant now. Especially when Yang Cheng heard about the registration fee and tuition fee, it was really an astronomical amount for himself.

When he had just eaten, Yang Cheng remembered it very clearly. Uncle Ping said that after entering Handan College, there are no special circumstances, students can only go home once a month, and they can only stay in the dormitory of the college, no matter who it is, even Nangong Ge as the mayor and as the patriarch of the Nangong family, his children have no privileges.

Mom is gone, Dad is gone, and there is nothing left at home. For Yang Cheng, he hopes to stay at school as long as possible. At least you don't have to endure the gaze of others. In his bones, Yang Cheng has a strong spirit that does not want to rely on others.

Handan College is a relatively fair place for the current self.

While thinking, Yang Cheng felt a gaze on the side. Turn your head to look. Soon he was attracted to the girl in front of him, this was definitely the best-looking girl Yang Cheng had seen so far.

Her eyes were bright and clear, as bright as stars. As if he still remembered the way Yang Cheng gobbled it up just now, his crescent-like eyes were bent, as if the spiritual rhyme was also overflowing from his eyes.

Her mouth is red and white, and her thin lips are delicate like rose petals. The fine long black hair fell on his shoulders, his small hand supported his chin, and he looked at Yang Cheng with a smile. Although he is only nine years old, this cute appearance really makes people want to pinch the little face of the puff puff.

"Look at what you see. Look at Yang Cheng looking at himself blankly, and muttered.

"Uh......" Yang Cheng realized his faux pas.

"Hahaha, don't bully you, my name is Nangong Yuhan, and I'll call me Sister Yuhan in the future. ”

"My name is Yang Cheng and I am from Qingshan Village. Facing this cute little girl, Yang Cheng's face was slightly hot.

"I heard that you are also going to be admitted to Handan Academy, and I will cover you when you come to school in the future. ”

The appearance of the eldest sister's head made Yang Cheng laugh, and the momentum of this eldest sister's head was somewhat similar to Nangong Qi. The difference is that Nangong Qi's eldest sister relies on momentum, while Yuhan's eldest sister relies on cuteness, giving people more of a feeling that she is scaring people.

Nangong Ze also smiled, he really knew his daughter too well, and he wrecked at home every day. If you are deceived by her cute appearance, then the price paid is very heavy, Nangong Ze himself has suffered a lot of losses, whenever the house smashes things and does something wrong, as long as the little girl is coquettish and admits her mistakes, the cute appearance really has no courage to scold, and it is over.

This day was too tiring for Yang Cheng, after a full meal, sleepiness came all the time, and the servant had just made the bed for Yang Cheng, and fell asleep.

The next day, Nangong Ze woke Yang Cheng up and asked Yang Cheng to go to the palace of the carver division in Handan City to determine the level of the carver division. to obtain a badge for the Carver.

The carriage slowly drove through the street, and Nangong Ze also brought his only daughter Yuhan.

The so-called city. The streets are lined with shops, grocery stores, clothing stores, weapons shops, fruit stands, and inns. Bustling crowds roam the streets. From the secluded countryside to the bustling city. Yang Cheng was gradually attracted by this prosperity.

Against the backdrop of the blue sky, the golden glazed tile heavy eaves of the palace appeared in Yang Cheng's field of vision, the outer wall of the palace is black, and the square giant pillars stand in the four corners of the palace, which is magnanimous but does not lose the sense of mystery. The palace is extremely high, and it is the tallest building that Yang Cheng has seen so far. Needless to say, this is the seat of the revered profession - the Palace of the Carving Formation. Although it was not the first time for Nangong Ze to come, when he approached the palace, he still let out bursts of admiration. The five big characters of "Carving Array Division's Palace" are carved on the plaque.

Yang Cheng and his entourage entered the palace, the hall was carved with beams and paintings, resplendent with gold, and the spiral staircase in the corner led to the higher floors. A girl about twenty years old stood at the front desk, and her light makeup made her look very moving, but if anyone caused trouble in the palace of the carver division, it meant that they would be the enemy of the entire palace of the carving array.

"Ask her about the services you need, such as the carver level test, the replacement of the carver's badge, and the conditions for hiring the carver. Nangong Ze introduced.

Without waiting for Nangong Ze to ask, Yang Cheng stepped forward and asked the young lady:

"Hello sister, I want to take the test of the carver level. ”

"Okay, little brother, you come with me alone. The young lady's voice was as beautiful as a silver bell, although this younger brother was not very old, and when he heard that he was going to carve the badge of the formation master, he fully demonstrated his professionalism.

Yang Cheng followed the young lady at the front desk to the second floor, and the space on the second floor was as large as the first floor. The difference is that the lighting is dim, giving people a sense of seriousness and tension. An old man sat at the table, closed his eyes and recuperated, as if he didn't hear the sound of Yang Cheng and the young lady at the front desk going upstairs. Behind the old man were rooms, which, according to Yang Cheng's guess, should be the place where the level test of the carver array master was conducted.

"My lord, there is a visitor who wants to get the Carving Array Badge. Sorry for your help. I'll go down first" As the young lady went downstairs and left, the old man opened his eyes and said:

"Oh, it's been a long, long time since I've seen such a young child take the test, kid, come here, fill out a form first. This form is the file of the carver, which will be recorded in the hall of the carver, which is common to all the halls of the carver master in the continent, and you can change the level of the carver badge anywhere. He spoke very quickly, and it was obvious that he was already proficient in these few words and could not slip anymore. ”

Name: Cheng Yang. Age: Eight years old. Address:Qingshan Village... The level of the carving array division that I want to apply for for the first time: the seventh-level carving array master of the white light pu array, after filling in a series of information. The old man was obviously surprised by the level of the carver array master that Yang Cheng applied for for the first time, and he didn't say anything. He pointed to a door at the back, and showed it to the old man when he was done, and if he passed the audit, he could get a badge.

Gently pushing the door open, the room was brightly lit instead of being dimly lit outside, and a simple stone table was placed in the center, with a piece of wood and drawings on it. Coincidentally, Yang Cheng has only carved wood formations at present, and he has not tried other items, and today's test of the seventh-level white light pu formation turned out to be the wood that Yang Cheng is most familiar with, and Yang Cheng has a little more grasp when he thinks of this.

In fact, before going to the Carving Array Master's Palace, Yang Cheng had thought about what level of Carving Array Master he would apply for for the first time, and after careful consideration, he decided to challenge the seventh level of the White Light Pu Formation, not only because Yang Cheng liked to challenge, but also because he wanted to prove himself, proving that he did not need to rely on the strength and help of others, and he could also achieve achievements by himself.

He touched the wood in front of him and gently took out the carving knife. I was not in a hurry for a while, observing the texture of the wood, and Yang Cheng from Qingshan Village, which is famous for processing wood, naturally knew the characteristics of wood well.

Yang Cheng's eyes locked on a certain place in the wood, and with a lift of the carving knife, he began to carve. The first thing to do was a fawn-like pattern, which seemed to be running in panic, as if it was trying to escape from the wood. This formation is called making a fire, and it only needs to inject a trace of force into the wood, and under the effect of the formation, the wood will burn. This can be useful when hunting in the wild and when light is needed. The most important thing is that this formation can be extinguished at any time and reused. This is also the reason why this formation can become a seventh-level white light pu formation. The wood carved by Yang Cheng is also the most resistant to burning of all woods.

The pattern of the dragon and phoenix dance stretched out on the small wood, and after a while, a circular pattern appeared in the square, and the pattern of Qiyi seemed to disrupt the previous pattern, but Yang Cheng knew that this was a necessary step. Because the next step is related to the success or failure of the formation.

Seeing Yang Cheng go upstairs for a while. Seeing Yang Cheng go upstairs before, Yang Cheng clenched his fists nervously, all of which was seen by Nangong Ze. Nangong Ze had a feeling of looking forward to this eight-year-old Yang Cheng, who was younger than his daughter, carving for the first time in the palace of the carver array.

Is Yang Cheng nervous?

Of course he was nervous, he was more excited, excited about testing his abilities.

The fine beads of sweat condensed into drops of sweat, dripping from Yang Cheng's sideburns, the most difficult step had been half completed, and the distance that the carving knife had moved on the wood could only be described in millimeters, Yang Cheng was very cautious, and he also understood that his limit was almost reached. If Yang Dao is here, he must not hesitate to praise Yang Cheng's performance. The delicate formation gradually took shape on the wood, and the moment the sweat dripped into Yang Cheng's eyes, the most difficult step had been completed. Looking at the pattern carefully, some are delicate and exquisite, some are rough and unrestrained, some are flexible and stretched, and some are complex in twists and turns. They reflect how difficult the process is.
