36 Earn Spirit Stones
That night, Ye Chen, Yan Han, and Wei Xuanyu rented three rooms in a small inn in the southern district of Xiancheng for a period of one month. "Rent three rooms?" Xiao Er looked at them with some surprise, but didn't ask much.
Ye Chen came to his room, lying on the bed and preparing to rest, but he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning.
He took off the scroll of the ancient painting of "Xianfu" tied around his waist and admired it.
In the ancient painting, there is a floating fairy island, a main mansion on the island, an acre of medicine garden, alchemy pavilion, refining pavilion, animal pen, etc., as well as a large open space, a little fox with a strange expression.
Ye Chen was very familiar with the things on it, and he could even think of every detail in the painting with his eyes closed.
"This ancient painting scroll of "Immortal Mansion", which can grow herbs, must be a magic weapon used by immortals, and I accidentally discovered it in the academy! It's just that I am still a secular martial artist, and I don't have the magical power of immortals, so I don't know how to use this ancient painting scroll of Xianfu. ”
"Now I am at the ninth level of the body refining period, and when I arrive in the Heavenly Mist Immortal Yuan City, I am only one step away from cultivating immortals. ”
"You must become an immortal cultivator as soon as possible!"
"What should I do next?"
"There is no shortage of medicinal materials for my body quenching, but I can't arouse the suspicion of others. If you concentrate on cultivation but don't make any money, I'm afraid it will attract speculation. Therefore, you must find a job, and you must also pay close attention to your cultivation, and break through to become an immortal cultivator as soon as possible. ”
"This ancient painting also has to be careful not to be discovered, the status of the warrior is too low, I can't fight the immortal now. ”
Ye Chen pondered wildly and fell asleep
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Ye Chen got up and looked for work in the Heavenly Mist Immortal Yuan City to earn spirit stones. Yan Han and Wei Xuanyu also went to find work separately, but the jobs they wanted to find were different, so they didn't go together.
Ye Chen has been doing odd jobs in Beilu Academy for ten years, and he is also familiar with finding work. He asked the innkeeper and learned that the requirements of the big shop Daxian Pavilion were too high, and the people hired were all immortal cultivators, and only small shops and small workshops would hire ordinary martial artists to work.
From the mouth of the innkeeper, he also knew that looking for work in the city, the warrior did the hardest, most tiring and dirtiest work, but the monthly salary was only one spirit stone. It is rare for a proprietor to hire more than one spirit stone.
This salary is just enough to rent the cheapest independent room in the inn in the city. Most of the warriors actually live together with several people, saving rent money to cover the expenses in the immortal city.
"I said, why did the innkeeper see us open three private rooms yesterday, and his eyes were a little strange. ”
Only then did Ye Chen remember this.
It's just that it's too late to regret it now.
Ye Chen went directly to the small shops and workshops in the city, and asked from door to door if he wanted to hire someone to work. It's a little hard to find, because he doesn't know anything about all walks of life in the fairy city, and can only do the simplest physical work.
"We want to recruit people here, do manual work, you don't seem to be very old, how much strength do you have?!"
A small refinery, the owner asked.
"Nine layers in the refining period, nine hundred catties of strength!"
Ye Chen hurriedly said.
"Okay! You go to the backyard to find Foreman Zhang, and let him arrange work for you, and try it for a day or two! Don't worry, the wages in my workshop will not be less than those of other families. ”
The owner was satisfied.
The strongest martial artist is the ninth layer of the refining period, and the strength can be about nine hundred catties. If the strength is more than 1,000 catties, he is an immortal cultivator, and the price of employment is completely different. Small workshops don't hire high-paying immortal cultivators to do rough work, and it's not cost-effective.
Ye Chen came to the backyard of the refining workshop.
The backyard is not big, only about one or two acres.
More than a dozen young men and men were immersed in their work, wielding hammers and pounding the dark ore, and the courtyard was full of bells.
Ye Chen went into the courtyard to ask someone, and found Foreman Zhang, who was in charge of the backyard, a thick-eyed man with a big hammer, and informed him of his intention.
"Young man, you should have just come to Xiancheng, right?!Which immortal did you take the way to enter the city?"
The thick-eyed man patted Ye Chen's shoulder vigorously and asked with a smile.
"I am a close entourage of the disciples of the Jinding Immortal Sect, and I followed the owner to the Immortal City. I can't go to Xianmen, so I can only stay in Xiancheng to find work. ”
Ye Chen felt his shoulders sink slightly, and said quietly.
"Jinding Gate?!"
More than a dozen men in the courtyard stopped one after another, wiped their sweat, and looked at Ye Chen one after another.
Martial artists are mixed in the Heavenly Mist Immortal Yuan City, and there is one thing that is very important, that is, the introduction of immortal cultivators who enter the city, or the token of which immortal family. The strength and status of the warriors themselves are almost the same, and they only look at the background background. The background is hard, and others will naturally look at it a few points higher. There must be a difference in status between one who is recommended by an unknown immortal cultivator and one who is recommended by an immortal sect.
The thick-eyed man tried Ye Chen's physical strength, felt that it was okay, and said, "Are you taking the path of the Golden Ding Immortal Gate?" Okay, our job is to smash these ores! You take this heavy hammer, and smash these ores hard until they are smashed into broken sand." ”
The thick-eyed man handed over the hammer in his hand.
"What a heavy hammer, hundreds of pounds!"
Ye Chen took the heavy hammer, and suddenly felt a sinking in his hand, and couldn't help but be taken aback.
It's not that if a warrior has a strength of 900 catties, he can use a weapon of 900 catties. On the battlefield, with a weapon that is too heavy, I am afraid that if you don't wield it more than ten times, your strength will be exhausted and you can't lift it, and no matter how heavy and domineering the weapon is, it will be a waste.
The steel knives and treasure knives that Ye Chen used before weighed only one or twenty pounds. Practicing martial arts for three or four hours a day, the strength of the whole body is exhausted, and the skeleton of the whole body feels like it is about to disperse.
This hundred-pound hammer, I'm afraid he can only use it for an hour.
"Why, you can't use this hammer?"
Thick eyebrows big man said.
"It works!"
Ye Chen gripped the handle of the heavy hammer tightly and swung it.
Now is not the time to pick and choose, it would be nice to find a job.
Ye Chen raised the hammer and slammed it into a fist-sized black ore on the ground.
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud, a small amount of black ore was smashed away, but the whole piece was still intact.
The hammer bounces up.
"Why is it so hard, what kind of ore is this?!"
Ye Chen was taken aback, and felt that his arms were a little numb. With his current strength of 900 catties, not to mention stones, even iron can be flattened.
The courtyard suddenly resounded with the laughter of all the warriors, and the newcomers were almost taken aback when they first came here.
The thick-eyed man explained with a smile, "This is a very hard dark iron ore, the ore raw material used by refiners to quench spiritual weapons and magic weapons. The work we do is a process of preparing the raw materials for refining. Let's smash the ore first and grind it into fine sand, and the refiner will quench the fine placer, which is easier and more convenient. If the refiner directly refines a large piece of raw ore, it will consume too much mana. ”
"This dark iron ore can withstand the strength of two thousand catties. With 900 strength, you need to pound about dozens of times to break a small piece of ore the size of a fist little by little. If it is beaten into fine sand, it will take hundreds or thousands of efforts. At the end of the day, if you can break a fist of ore and grind it into fine sand, you're done. The salary is one spirit stone per month, not including food and housing. ”
Dahan said in detail.
"A spirit stone is so little!"
Ye Chen grinned and muttered.
Dahan smiled, "Don't be too little. You are at the ninth level of the refining period, and you only have a spirit stone. There are still several martial artists in our courtyard who are at the seventh and eighth levels of the body refining period, and they can't even earn one spirit stone per month, and they can only earn two spirit stones in three months. ”
Ye Chen didn't have anything to say, he held the hammer and posed to make it easier for him to hold it. He meditated in his heart for a moment on the key to the Tiger Leaping Knife Technique. The posture of using a hammer is the same as that of a knife, but the weight is different.
"Tiger Leap Triple Slash!"
Ye Chen raised the hammer, poured his own energy into the hammer, and slammed it down on the iron ore. When he was about to hit the ore, his hand shook slightly, and a triple shadow appeared in the heavy hammer, and two thousand seven hundred catties of violent violence smashed on the black iron ore in an instant.
"Bang!
The whole fist-sized piece of dark iron ore completely shattered, shattering into more than a dozen small pieces of gravel.
"Triple Strength!"
Dahan was stunned for a moment.
The entire courtyard was suddenly silent, and all the warriors looked over in surprise. "This kid actually smashed the dark iron ore with a single hammer!" "How powerful is this?I'm afraid it's at least two thousand catties or more, what kind of martial arts is he cultivating?!"
Ye Chen stopped the heavy hammer, took a breath, rubbed his slightly numb arms, and then continued to perform the Tiger Leap Triple Slash, hammering the Xuaniron ore.
Ye Chen secretly said in his heart, "The Tiger Leap Triple Slash is really effective, and it can quickly break the ore into crushed sand. However, this requires a lot of energy, and it will be exhausted in a dozen strokes. You need to stop and slowly regain your energy. But even then, it's at least three times faster than a simple hammer. ”
"Good job! I'll tell the owner when I go back, and give you processing money, two or three spirit stones a month!"
The foreman couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Ye Chen's work speed was at least three times faster than that of others.
"Work, work! The owner hires you with a spirit stone a month, but it doesn't make you lazy here! Whoever of you has the same ability as him, and he can also process money. ”
The surprised warriors in the courtyard of the Great Han Dynasty shouted loudly.
