Chapter 4 Let's wait and see
"Mom's friend?"
Wen Ruyu bowed slightly, as if acquiescing to the identity of 'mother's friend' in his mouth...
"Your father Ji Pingchang is an eight-layer cultivator of qi refining and auxiliary cultivation of Danshu, and your mother Ning Chan is a seventh-layer cultivator of qi, and she is a Yanshu master, has there ever been a mistake?"
"Correct..."
"I've been on the same team as your mother many times, and I didn't have you back then..."
"It turned out to be a senior face to face~"
Ji Bo often pretended to be abrupt, and then said with a look of concern: "My mother has been dead for more than 20 years, and the younger generation is lonely and helpless, and today I know that there are still relatives alive in the world." Luckily~Luckily~"
"I'm not your relative..."
Wen Ruyu frowned slightly when she heard this: "My mother and I are just simple friends, and I am looking for something to ask for today, not to find relatives." ”
"It's the juniors who are abrupt."
Ji Bo often saw that his relatives were rejected, but he did not show disappointment, and then asked: "I don't know why my predecessors came here today?" ”
His voice paused, and he said with a sincere expression: "Although my mother has been dead for more than 20 years, my predecessors and my mother are old friends, and Bo Chang, as a junior, should do his best." ”
“……”
Wen Ruyu didn't rush to reply, but looked around the courtyard and said meaningfully: "You only have these things left in your house?" ”
"Not bad."
Ji Bochang also knew that his family was poor, and explained with a wry smile: "My parents died early, the younger generation has a pseudo-spiritual root, and the cultivation qualifications are too poor. ”
"It's not easy for the pseudo-spirit root to feel the qi, and you can practice so far, but you have also worked hard."
Wen Ruyu bowed slightly, and then asked sharply, "Is your family's "Yanshu Basic Essentials" still there?" ”
"In..."
Ji Bo often saw her talking about "The Basic Essentials of Yanshu", and there was no surprise on her face, and she quietly took out a yellowed ancient jade slip from the storage bag.
"That's what my predecessor said?"
"Not bad..."
Wen Ruyu bowed slightly, seeing that he seemed to be well-behaved, but in fact he was restrained, she couldn't help but smile a little, and asked, "Do you know I want this thing?" ”
"My parents died young, and my family was poor."
Ji Bochang handed over the jade slip and said: "The seniors are the old friends of the mother, and in addition, the younger generations really can't think of anything else in the family that is worth remembering the seniors." ”
"You're smart..."
Wen Ruyu took the jade slip and played with it to confirm the authenticity, and wanted to replace it with some pills, but suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked, "How much have you learned about the art of making puppets?" ”
"Ah, this ......"
Ji Bo was often slightly stunned when he heard this, he can't say that he has made a lot of realistic 'playmates' in his spare time, right?
He pondered for a while, and said half-truthfully: "The younger generation has been learning behind his mother since he was a child, and he has also helped to create some Yanshu puppets, and he has studied this technique for more than ten years after stepping into the practice. ”
His voice paused, and then he continued with some shyness: "Although I have learned seven, seven, eighty, eight, or eight, after all, I only have the second layer of qi refining, and I have no spirit stones to purchase materials, so I haven't actually operated it." ”
"Learned seven, seven, eight, eight?"
Wen Ruyu glanced at him in disbelief and said, "Although Yanshu is a small minority in the cultivation world, the threshold for entry is really not low.
As far as I know, the caster needs to have requirements for talismans, patterns, arithmetic, formations, mechanisms, etc., and higher-quality Yanshu puppets even require forbidden matches with refining weapons, can you learn seven, seven, eight, eight? ”
"Yanshu is indeed a cultivation skill with a high threshold, as the predecessors said, and it is indeed extremely complicated to learn, but it is ......."
Ji Bochang said: "The younger generation is just poor in cultivation qualifications, and they are not stupid. Since childhood, I have been exposed to it since I was a child, and I have been exploring it for more than ten years, and the younger generation asks himself to have some research on Yanshu! ”
"Oh?"
Wen Ruyu was a little surprised, "Really?"
"Seriously!"
Ji Bo's heart was pounding, and even the fingers in his sleeves trembled slightly...
He didn't say empty words...
After realizing that this is a world of cultivating immortals, he likes to lean behind his parents since he was a child, his father is alchemy, and he is a fan boy by the fireside; His mother made a puppet, and he became an apprentice to deliver tools.
As an adult's soul, while stealing a skill, he is also examining the differences between the two worlds.
He does know a little bit about it, as evidenced by the realistic 'playmates' on the top and at the bedside...
And when he entered just now, he knew that the cultivation of the woman in front of him was much higher than his own, and the blade around his neck disappeared in an instant, which was very likely to be a magic weapon.
Although he couldn't see what kind of cultivation it was, he clearly knew that his mother was a late stage of Qi cultivation more than twenty years ago!
And this woman is her mother's old friend, and her cultivation more than 20 years ago will definitely not be lower than the late stage of Qi training, and now, maybe it is already the foundation building period!!
Judging from the current situation, it seems that she wants to make a puppet, and the cultivation skill of 'Yanshu' belongs to a small minority in the entire cultivation world, and there are not many people who know it.
I happen to know some...
If you start to sell your favor from this aspect and get their help, won't the 'Taoist problem' that you were worried about before be solved?
Ji Bochang has been a human being for two lifetimes, and now he is middle-aged, although he did almost lie flat because of his poor cultivation talent before, but after all, it was helpless...
Now that I have found the correct use of gold fingers, I feel that the future is promising, how can I be willing to be subordinate?
Therefore, he clearly knew that the first priority at the moment was to be well-behaved, and on the premise of saving his life, it would be better if he could earn the favor of a foundation building monk...
He took a deep breath to calm down his emotions, and said without changing his face: "If the seniors don't believe it, you can buy a few materials, and the juniors can make a puppet of the fifth layer of qi refining on the spot!" ”
“……”
Wen Ruyu saw his sworn appearance, and for no reason, a kind of 'Could it be that this kid is really good at puppetry?' ' thoughts.
She seemed to think of something and asked, "Why can you only make a puppet of the fifth level of Qi training?" ”
"The cultivation of the juniors is too low, and making a puppet in the middle stage of Qi cultivation is already the limit."
Ji Bo saw that there seemed to be some disappointment in her expression, and hurriedly added: "If you want to make a puppet in the late stage of Qi training, it's not impossible, but some links need to be done by the seniors themselves..."
"Late ...... Qi Training"
Wen Ruyu frowned slightly, and subconsciously asked, "What if I want to make a puppet in the foundation building period?" ”
“……”
Ji Bo often heard that when his breath was stagnant, the frequency of his heart seemed to miss a few beats, and he was nervous and worried.
The tension is that the other party has a ninety percent probability of being a monk in the foundation building period;
I'm worried that I can't help, I can't sell favors, and I can't get help...
"That might disappoint the seniors..."
After he came back to his senses, he didn't choose to be strong, and said regretfully: "The younger generation's "Yanshu Basic Essentials" only records the production method of the puppet in the Qi refining period, and there is no foundation building period. ”
"I have a method for making a foundation period puppet."
Wen Ruyu took out a jade slip with a sense of age from the storage bag, handed it over and said, "This puppet in the foundation building period is quite special, you can see if you can make it with my help." ”
“……”
Although Ji Bochang was surprised in his heart, he didn't dare to say anything, he just nodded, took the jade slip and put it in the center of his eyebrows, and carefully observed it with his divine sense...
It's just that the more he looks, the deeper his brow furrows...
After reading it, he took a long sigh of relief and said, "To make this puppet, you need a core made of Tongxin wood, and this core needs to be taken by the second refiner, and it needs to be supplemented by prohibitions, I, no..."
"Second Refiner Refiner..."
Wen Ruyu bowed slightly when she heard this, and was not surprised, and asked, "What about the kernel part?" ”
"Except for the kernel part..."
Ji Bochang looked at it with a slight gaze...
He had also seen the Yanshu puppet in the foundation building period just now, and the difficulty was that the kernel that was refined by Tongxin wood could not be refined by a second-turn refiner at all.
Although there are also difficulties in other auxiliary materials, I can understand it to some extent, and if I spend some time researching it, and someone can help me, I may not be able to try it...
As if he had made up his mind, he said, "Three years!" ”
He was afraid that he would not be clear enough, and explained: "With the help of my seniors, it will take me three years to make this puppet except for the core!" ”
"Three years?"
Wen Ruyu muttered in a trance, and asked, "Then what if I only give you two years?" ”
“……”
Ji Bo often looked embarrassed, but after seeing the trance-like state of the senior, he gritted his teeth and responded: "If you can get the help of the seniors, it will be two years!" ”
"Two years is fine?"
"Yes!"
“……”
Wen Ruyu almost gritted her teeth when she saw him say 'but', and she didn't know what she thought, so she couldn't help but smile with a smile.
"You said yes?"
She said with a smile: "Don't be too full of tickets, I don't know if you are really good at martial arts, or if you are open-mouthed." ”
"I want three materials!"
Ji Bo Chang Zhengse said: "Two parts of fault tolerance, you will know it when you try it!" ”
"Okay!"
Wen Ruyu casually threw the jade slip that recorded the "Basic Essentials of Yanshu" back into his hand, and said, "I'll go and prepare three materials for you, if you can really create a puppet in the middle stage of Qi cultivation, I will believe your words; If you find out that you are talking ......"
Her voice paused, and she said with a cold face: "Then it's no wonder that I don't miss my old friends." ”
Ji Bo often looked directly at her beautiful eyes, nodded solemnly, and said, "Please wait and see!" ”
