"Holy Maiden, please look." Yang Lan got up and approached Ye Qingyin, guiding Ye Qingyin to observe the small tick marks on the compass.

Then he said: "The ordinary chronograph compass has the number of twelve earthly branches, and this compass divides each hour into eight scales, that is, into eight quarters. ”

"Eight quarters of an hour?" Ye Qingyin was not very familiar with the new noun introduced by Yang Lan.

"Yes. The timekeeping we use on weekdays only speaks of the hour, such as sub-hour and noon. The saint must have understood that such a timekeeping is actually very rough. Yang Lan said for Ye Qingyin.

"Indeed." Ye Qingyin kept thinking in his mind, and nodded in response.

"If we further divide this hour, such as half an hour, half an hour of half an hour, then our usual timekeeping will become more accurate." Yang Lan introduced the concept of scales with simple divisions.

"What Senior Sister said is very true." Ye Qingyin is also an extremely smart person, and he quickly understands the joints.

"So, the compass divides each hour into eight parts, each for a quarter of an hour." Yang Lan pointed to the two adjacent scales on the compass.

"But that's not where the most important thing is." Yang Lan changed her words and said: "The concept of redivision has also been explored by predecessors, and it is not only at this time. ”

"Oh? So what's the point? Ye Qingyin wondered.

"Holy Maiden, please see, the number of earth branches on the original compass was marked by me, and if you look closely, you will find that the arrangement of these twelve words is not regular, and each word is relatively speaking, more or less deviated." Yang Lan continued to point to the words on the dial and said.

"Well, it's a bit messy on closer inspection." Ye Qingyin carefully distinguished, and could still see that it was a little crooked. However, she is also a well-informed person, looking at Yang Lan and saying: "I have also seen a lot of compasses, and the divisions on them are not very regular, senior sister, this one is already relatively perfect." ”

"That's the key, it's the shackles of the world right now, and no one can arrange these words perfectly." Yang Lan talked about refining weapons, and suddenly returned to the high-spirited seven-rank refiner.

Although Ye Qingyin doesn't know how to refine weapons, he still has some understanding of the basic situation of refining tools, and he also knows that if he wants to put every word perfectly in an equal and regular position, it is not something that people can do, and it takes luck.

And good luck only brings some better, but does not substantially change the status quo.

"Holy Maiden, if you look at these small scales, are they exactly the same at intervals on each line?" With a hint of excitement, Yang Lan introduced the most critical point to Ye Qingyin.

Ye Qingyin carefully examined each small tick mark, and looked at it with the naked eye, planning each interval was of average size, without the slightest deviation, and a monstrous wave turned in his heart: how could anyone draw such a perfect tick mark, the entire disc was divided into one hundred and ninety-two parts by these thin lines, and each one was exactly the same.

"Senior sister, who has such great power to be able to do this?" Ye Qingyin, who didn't care much about it, was also stunned. This is nearly two hundred copies, there is no deviation at all, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for my master who has cultivated to the top.

"No matter how high the cultivation is, I'm afraid it will be difficult to draw such a beautiful small scale with bare hands." Yang Lan shook her head, looked at Luo Yunjin and sighed.

Seeing Yang Lan's ambiguous eyes, Luo Yunjin felt a panic in his heart.

"It's indescribable." Yang Lan couldn't help but feel it, and then said: "It is the introduction of the concept of small scales, as well as the small scales that can be refined, which can increase the tighter and more stable joints between parts in the refiner, making me feel that the eight-rank refiner is only in a single thought. ”

Ye Qingyin pondered the key to what Yang Lan said, and had some understanding in her heart, so she couldn't stop nodding.

Luo Yunjin next to him was a second monk who was confused. She could understand what Yang Lan said before, and as for the last key, just like listening to the book of heaven, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart: What is the relationship between before and after?

Yang Lan ignored Luo Yunjin's helplessness, but turned around and took a piece of paper, and demonstrated the principle of equal division to Ye Qingyin with a ruler.

"I see." is worthy of being a scholar praised by Mu Heng, Ye Qingyin understood the principle after this prompt.

"It's really subverting the existing concept, no wonder Senior Sister you want to make this attempt." Ye Qingyin also had a new understanding of Yang Lan's adventure, and if he really refined the eighth-grade ice crystal cicada clothes, he could indeed provide him with a great boost.

And, again, as a seeker, any epiphany is worth trying.

"It's a pity, I'm still too anxious." At the mention of the ice crystal cicada clothes, Yang Lan's mood took a sharp turn again.

"Holy Maiden, Senior Sister, is this Taiyin True Water rare?" Luo Yunjin didn't understand much about refining weapons, but she understood the specifics very well. Thinking of the purpose of coming here, he asked strangely.

"Taiyin True Water is the water of origin produced at the beginning of the birth of heaven and earth, which is not only full of spiritual energy, but also contains the rhyme of the Great Dao, where it can be easily obtained." Ye Qingyin popularized knowledge for Luo Yunjin.

"I heard Senior Sister Yang Lan say, this Taiyin True Water is available in my Yuqing Xingzhai territory, in that Fog Hidden Heavenly Mountain, can't you take another copy?" Luo Yunjin was also strange about this, since he could get one copy, why not get a second one.

"The foggy hidden Tianshan Mountain is shrouded in clouds all the year round, and there is thunder and lightning in it, and it doesn't stop for half a moment, and if you rush in, you will only be struck by thunder." Ye Qingyin remembered his experience in the Fog Hidden Heavenly Mountain, and a trace of fear couldn't help but rise in his heart.

"Huh? It's so dangerous! Listening to Ye Qingyin's description, Luo Yunjin felt that it was no different from the region, and he also had a hint of retreat in his heart to get the Taiyin True Water.

"I didn't expect it. I wanted to take more Taiyin True Water to help me break through the Four Elephant Realm, but in the end, I only got one drop, which was of little use to improve the realm, so I entrusted my senior sister to refine a magic robe. Ye Qingyin took Yang Lan's hand and revealed the true thoughts in her heart as comfort.

"I see. Then Senior Sister Yang Lan, you really don't need to blame yourself, the seventh-grade ice crystal cicada clothes are of little significance to the saintess, but if you refine it to the eighth-grade, the effect it can play is unimaginable. Senior Sister Yang Lan, you did the right thing, we should thank you. Luo Yunjin took Ye Qingyin's words and continued.

Without waiting for Yang Lan to refute, Luo Yunjin asked again: "Then Senior Sister, did you break through without using the Taiyin True Water?" ”

Ye Qingyin, who was caught by Luo Yunjin in his words, somehow remembered the scene where he broke through, and his face suddenly turned red.

Looking at Ye Qingyin's inexplicable change in face, he was even more shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but guess: Is it related to senior brother?

"Xu is blessed by the heavens, without the Taiyin True Water, he has also broken through the Four Elephant Realm." Adjusting his mood, Ye said softly.

"By the way, Senior Sister Yang Lan, do you know who the master I just talked about is?" didn't want to continue to talk about the topic of his breakthrough, Ye Qingyin remembered what he said about the compass before, so he asked about the master of the compass and the ruler.

"This is for Senior Sister Yunjin, these three objects were brought to me by Senior Sister Yunjin." Under the comfort of the two, Yang Lan no longer cared too much about the consciousness of the ice crystal cicada, and instead looked at Luo Yunjin with a wicked smile.

Yang Lan also wanted to know the situation of the master in her heart, and there was no lack of admiration on her face.

"Yunjin? You know? Ye Qingyin was surprised, when did Luo Yunjin come into contact with such a master.

"Well, no, no, accident, accident." Luo Yunjin was thinking about how to make a fool of himself to get this matter over, but he couldn't tell Mu Heng about it.

Being stared at by the two of them, Luo Yunjin said hesitantly: "There is an old gentleman who passed by me Yuqing Xingzhai, and when he saw that I was smart and clever, he wanted to accept me as an apprentice, but I refused, so he gave me these two things later, and helped me modify the compass by the way." ”

I don't know how this lie is made, I raised my eyes and looked at Ye Qingyin and Yang Lan, and what I saw from their eyes was: We don't believe it, but we don't stop you from continuing to make it up.

Thinking of a better way, Luo Yunjin shouted at the top of his voice: "That's it, believe it or not." ”

"Poof." Ye Qingyin was amused by her childish temper, and seemed to blame: "If you don't want to say it, you don't want to say it, and you can't lie nonsense." ”

I knew in my heart that such a master must have no malice, and he no longer forced Luo Yunjin to confess.

"If I can get the guidance of a master, it may be much easier for me to be promoted to an eighth-grade refiner." Yang Lan had stars in her eyes, and said with regret.

Forehead! Luo Yunjin saw Yang Lan's nymphomaniac appearance, and a trace of cunning flashed in his heart: If you know that this master is a senior brother, I am really afraid that you will be laughed off by others.

"Senior sister, what does this Taiyin True Water look like?" Luo Yunjin extinguished the fire of entertainment in his heart, looked at the two people in front of him carefully, and played Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.

"Yunjin, what are you asking for?" Ye Qingyin saw all Luo Yunjin's expressions in her eyes, and kept scanning her and Yang Lan back and forth, but she was thinking about the things of the superior in her heart.

"No, I'm just curious, it's not bad if I can know this kind of natural treasure, and I won't miss it if I encounter it in the future." Luo Yunjin thought about it for a moment and made up a reason.

"Taiyin True Water, a natural treasure, has the characteristics of water impermanence, and cannot be distinguished from the appearance. However, if you meet it one day, you will know it. Ye Qingyin replied simply.

"Can I know each other?" Luo Yunjin was surprised, he hadn't seen it, how could he know it.

"Senior sister, what the Holy Maiden said is right, Taiyin True Water is really not easy to describe, but it is very easy to recognize." Yang Lan followed Ye Qingyin's words and put her hand on Luo Yunjin's shoulder and smiled.

"Why is that, Senior Sister Yang Lan?" Luo Yunjin was confused by the two of them, anxious in his heart, and asked with a pout.

Ye Qingyin seemed to be accustomed to her impatient habits, and with a hint of blame on her face, she said: "Knowing the origin is like human instinct, and the moment you see it, there will be enlightenment in your heart. ”

"So amazing?" Luo Yunjin exclaimed when he heard this, which was very incredible.
