The disappearance of Elder Pingqi had a great impact on the Karakuri Sect.
Each denomination has its own way of doing things, like a mark, that influences the people in each denomination.
If it is Ying Longzong, I am afraid that it doesn't matter if he is a Zi Baifeng or not, he will go to the door first to ask for someone.
However, in the sect of the Karakuri Sect, there are more thoughtful technical and technical houses, businessmen who are thinking about the pros and cons, and their first reaction is not to directly find Zi Baifeng to ask for someone, but to subconsciously find a way to investigate what is going on.
Overnight, someone went to monitor outside the Zifu and reported the monitored situation to Elder Pingshang.
"After Zi Baifeng went home last night, he has been in the backyard, and the lights of Zifu have not been lit all night, and I have not seen the shadow of Uncle Pingqi. β
Elder Pingshang instructed: "Continue to monitor. β
Then, during the day, he reported: "Zi Baifeng's father, Zi Jian, went to the labor market, perhaps intending to hire workers. β
Elder Pingshang instructed: "Hire all the people you use, raise the price to sign long-term contracts, and don't give them a chance." β
Compared with their earnings, what is the salary of ordinary workers? Even if it is added ten times the salary, there is no problem, the key is to tie these people up, and not let them work under Zi Baifeng.
So, at noon, Zijian came back with a tired face, but his surroundings were empty, and no one came back.
"There is no one in the market who can use it, they are all crooked melons and cracked dates, and the things they make are not as good as those made of small stones...... "Zijian said to Zibai.
"This Karakuri Sect, how can it be to this point?" Zibai said, "But fortunately, I still have a backup plan...... Dad, if you can't help it, just use that. β
Zijian nodded, the one Zi Baifeng said, in fact, he has always carried it with him, but this is Zaitianfu, Zijian has not taken it out, so as not to be too eye-catching and cause any trouble to himself.
Zijian walked out of the room, opened his toolbox, and threw it out.
I've been with Zi Baifeng for a long time, but it's not just the axe and saw that the four little demons have become demons, most of the things around Zi Baifeng have actually become demons, but these demons whose bodies are non-living things are subject to their nature, and in most cases, they prefer to keep their original form.
For example, Uncle Qingshi, such as the Golden Sword Demon, Shu Yue, etc., like to exist in the form of an ontology all the time, and rarely transform into a human form.
And Zijian also has such a group of little demons by his side.
Zijian threw out the toolbox that had been lost, flipped it in the air, and shot out four white lights, and four children in silver shining clothes had already appeared in the courtyard.
Then there was another clanging sound, but dozens or hundreds of golden rays of light shot out and fell to the ground, turning into small people the size of peas.
Zijian's craftsmanship is amazing, he doesn't use a ruler, he doesn't use ink lines, he can make furniture very neat, all kinds of tools in his hands, has been simplified, basically only axe, saw, planing and chiseling four tools with different uses.
But there was one more thing he had to use, and that was nails.
In addition to nails, there are screws - in fact, the screws in this world were invented by Zi Baifeng, before because of the limited casting process, the precise screws could not be cast at all, and then after the knife Liu Village's skills advanced by leaps and bounds, there were a batch of qualified screws, but the price is very expensive, it can be called equivalent to gold, Dad is really reluctant to use, such a package of screws, Dad also put it in his own toolbox, I didn't expect that over time, it also became a demon.
These nails and screws have turned into little people less than a meter tall, some with straight hair and some with curly hair, looking like a group of little fat people who have eaten too well.
After these villains appeared, Zijian's toolbox rolled on the ground, and it also turned into a boxy man who was four feet tall and had a waist circumference of four feet, almost wider than standing.
Zijian's toolbox has already become a demon, and those screw and nail demons are also its subordinate demons strictly speaking, and their relationship with it is similar to that of the Golden Sword Demon to Uncle Qingshi.
Axes, saws, chisels, boxes, and a group of even smaller screws and nail demons are all the hands of Zijian now.
Zi Baifeng summoned the outer disciples of the Bird and Mouse Temple and assigned them tasks, each of them cooperated with a nail demon, and all went to the street to purchase materials, while Zi Baifeng himself went to the plot they got with Zijian to actually investigate.
The Karakuri Sect's watcher reported: "A group of Humpty Dumpty suddenly came out of Zifu, and together with the disciples of the Bird and Mouse Temple, they went to buy materials everywhere. β
Elder Pingshang immediately instructed: "Contact the major material suppliers immediately, and buy them at a higher price, so that they can't buy materials!"
However, this time, Zi Baifeng is also throwing money at all costs, raising prices on both sides, but he is fattening the supplier of Zaitanfu, and for a while, the prices of the entire Zaitianfu have skyrocketed, and even the standard of living has increased by several points.
That's an afterword.
Let's say that Zi Baifeng, Zijian and others came to the plot of land obtained from Wu Yunhou.
This plot is one of the first plots that Zibaifeng fancied, and it is not far from Zifu, at most two or three kilometers in a straight line.
Looking at this plot of land that almost suddenly changed from a bustling city to an empty field, Zi Baifeng shook his head slightly, there is no plan for Tianfu at all, if there is a plan, how can there be such a large plot of land that has not been utilized?
However, it is precisely because the utilization rate of Zaitianfu is not high that this has fattened Zibaifeng.
As soon as Zi Baifeng stepped into that empty field, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, this was the feeling of stepping into a brand new piece that had become his territory, as if the whole land was breathing, shouting, and cheering for him.
But in the same way, Zi Baifeng could also feel the weakness, powerlessness, and death that permeated the air from under this land.
Because there is no human activity around, there are no buildings, and even there are few plants and trees, so this is the thinnest place in the aura of the entire Zaitin Mansion.
Zi Baifeng also had a rough idea of what Lu Dao was for, and no one was active in this place, because this happened to be the place where the three large spirit gathering arrays of Zaitianfu converged on the periphery, and this place was like a spiritual energy vacuum well, and the spiritual energy had been completely emptied, and those who remained here were just dead qi.
Even if someone once settled here, they would get sick or leave because they couldn't stand the breath of death.
This is also the reason why Elder Pingqi promised to give him this piece of land and was willing to bet with him, because there was no use value here at all, and the cost of wanting to renovate it was too high.
However, this is only relatively.
Since Zi Baifeng dared to take over here, he naturally had his own plans.
Since Zi Baifeng's demon cultivation technique has advanced to the sixth order, he has the ability to compile laws, but in the same way, Zi Baifeng's laws are not perfect, and on the way from the sixth order to the seventh order, Zi Baifeng's laws are also constantly improving.
Now Zi Baifeng is also exploring his own law, and he finds that this law also has limitations, and it is not omnipotent.
For example, Zi Baifeng's card, theoretically speaking, should be all the people who have been turned into monsters by him should leave a mirror card.
But in fact, not all the monsters remained, and Zi Baifeng had not yet discovered the pattern, but the cards he had must be creatures, tools, or companions that were very important to him.
At present, Zi Baifeng's cards are divided into three types: skill cards, retinue cards, and weapon cards, and the skill cards are ten thousand sword rain, and the heavenly fire and falling sun arrows are the same; the retinue cards are divided into mirror cards and creature cards, the mirror card is the mirror image of the little fox, and the creature card is a variety of creatures captured by the net; and the weapon card is the weapon of Shuyue and the golden sword.
And in the past few days, when Zi Baifeng shuffled the cards, he shuffled out another kind of card, which Zi Baifeng called: resource card.
This kind of card has no attack or defense, and once used, it will generate a fixed "resource" for Zi Baifeng.
For example, this card: The Gift of the Danmu Sacred Tree.
The gift of the Danmu Divine Tree, with a speed of 50, produces 50 units of aura and 50 units of wood and fire dual-attribute jade every day.
This card, Zi Baifeng has never had a chance to use, Zi Baifeng is still shuffling the cards one day, and found that there is a card that grows very slowly, and it has not grown half a leaf for half a day, only to realize the difference of this card.
Zi Baifeng found that his cards were a highly conceptual existence, and it was not just a simple replication and simulation of reality, many of which were split into different cards.
For example, Uncle Qingshi, he left a mirror card, which can summon a golden sword demon with a little attack power every second, and can also turn into a meteor and use the "Sky Fire Falling Sun Arrow".
At the same time, he also produced two skill cards, "Ten Thousand Sword Rain" and "Heavenly Fire Falling Sun Arrow".
At the same time, Zi Baifeng was also wondering if Uncle Qingshi would also generate resource cards and contribute aura and jade to him every day.
So far, Zi Baifeng hasn't seen it, and he can only look forward to it.
Compared with other cards, the probability of swiping out the resource card is very low, Zi Baifeng washed it countless times, and he didn't wash out another resource card, so this "Gift of the Danmu Divine Tree" Zi Baifeng has been staying there and is not willing to use it.
Now, it's time to use it.
Zi Baifeng walked to the center of the barren land, stretched out his hand, and gently plucked the leaf-shaped card from the center of his eyebrows.
Then, with a flick of his hand, the "Gift of the Danmu Divine Tree" flew out of the sky and turned into a streamer of light.
"Boom", the earth seemed to shake, a dazzling light lit up, a transparent, like a crystal carving, but more crystal clear than the crystal phantom rose from the ground, from the seedlings, to the towering tree, in the blink of an eye, the crystal trunk shrouded the entire empty field.
A stream of aura slowly dispersed, nourishing the surrounding land, at this time it was already midsummer, but the grass and trees on the ground seemed to be dead trees in spring, from yellow disease, to green and vibrant.
Zi Baifeng took a breath, and the air seemed to have the unique warm and fragrant smell of the Danmu Divine Tree.
Zi Baifeng looked up at the phantom, the sunlight shone down through the phantom, casting a faint shadow on the ground, and a brilliant brilliance flowed inside the phantom, which was the veins in the body of the Danmu Divine Tree, transporting something that I don't know if the Dao was nourishment or aura.
Every leaf, every branch, is so delicate, as if it were completely real, but they are all transparent and have a unique charm.
Zi Baifeng was okay, Zi Jian, who was following him, was completely stunned, his mouth was wide open, and he couldn't speak for a long time, until a transparent caterpillar hung down the silk thread and almost landed in his mouth, he reacted and hurriedly retreated.
The "Gift of the Danmu Sacred Tree" is not as big as the real Danmu Sacred Tree, and this whole land cannot accommodate the trunk of the Danmu Sacred Tree, it is like a miniature version of the Danmu Sacred Tree, and the things that the Danmu Sacred Tree has, whether it is a bird's nest on the tree, or insects, are reflected one by one.
Zi Baifeng suddenly felt that maybe it was just a passage to the Danmu Divine Tree, or maybe it was just a real phantom of the Danmu Divine Treeβin the final analysis, it was still a mirror image.
Zi Baifeng suddenly felt that something was pushing his feet against his feet, he squatted down, and saw a crystal mixed with fiery red and cyan growing on the ground, which was the jade mentioned in the description of the card.
As Zi Baifeng's demon cultivation skills continue to improve, from the beginner of the sixth-order Ruo Weaving Net to a higher level, his cards are becoming more and more perfect, and he will explain by himself, unlike the earliest time, Zi Baifeng needs to guess by himself.
Zi Baifeng is looking forward to it, if he reaches the seventh order of pregnancy spirit, what will happen? Just thinking about it, it makes people look forward to it.
On the ground, the wood fire dual-attribute jade sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the aura quickly escaped out, like a spring constantly gushing out, flooding the surrounding land, until the edge of the land, it did not stop.
The aura generated by Zi Baifeng's demon cultivation technique was completely controlled by him, and he was confined to this area, whether it was the surrounding spirit gathering array or anything else, he didn't want to suck these aura away from his territory.
"I'm going to change the design and design a huge flower bed or fountain here. Zijian stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the thick crystal tree, but his hand passed through the phantom and touched the empty space, he sighed and said.
Zi Baifeng raised his head, looked at the gorgeous crystal tree in the sun, and imagined that if there was a huge fountain here, water droplets sprayed and splashed in the phantom of the crystal tree, turning into rainbows, and couldn't help but be stupid.
After a long time, the two of them reacted, and began to explore on the spot around the crystal tree, Zijian and Zi Baifeng are not strangers to this kind of project, they have built a lot of towns, and it can even be said that they are familiar with the road, Zijian nodded and said: "Our previous drawings basically don't need to be modified, and when the material procurement comes, we can start." β
By the time Zi Baifeng and they had completely surveyed this place, a few hours had passed, and this land had completely changed from the beginning, becoming vibrant, taking a breath, although it was still far away from Mengcheng, it was already the same as the original, and it had basically reached the level of the Marquis of Wuyun.
This fifty units of aura, I don't know how to calculate it, but in less than half a day, it has such a miraculous effect, which makes Zi Baifeng look forward to it even more.
Zi Baifeng and the others here are exploring, and the people who are in charge of monitoring them over there are also desperately sending messages to the Karakuri Sect to report the movements here.
"Zi Baifeng and Zi Jian arrived at their plot, what did Zi Baifeng do, and suddenly there was an extra tree in the plot. β
"The tree grew and looked like a decorative trick. β
"It's strange, the plants in that field are starting to grow, do you want to go inside and investigate?"
When Elder Pingshang received this message, he frowned and pondered for a while.
A crystal tree or something, in fact, is not unusual, there are countless ways to do it, but it is just a trick, or just a special preference, and it is meaningless.
But when the plants on the ground begin to grow, the meaning is completely different, and that means that the aura becomes abundant.
"That crystal tree may be a magic weapon that can store spiritual energy, look for an opportunity to investigate. "Elder Pingshang said, there are thousands of magic weapons in this world, although the vast majority of powerful magic weapons have disappeared with the departure of the immortals, but among the magic weapons that can be saved, there are still many strange existences, among which there are those that can store and produce aura, and it is not strange, like the legendary Zhenyuan Orb, which is an existence with an extremely large amount of aura stored inside.
Zi Baifeng and the others left the plot when the sun was in the west, and as soon as Zi Baifeng and the others left, the Karakuri Sect disciple who was in charge of monitoring Zi Baifeng and the others immediately quietly entered the plot.
At this time, the aura of the plot was not yet strong enough for Zi Baifeng to completely control the heavens and the earth, and Zi Baifeng could not control whether to let the disciples of the Karakuri Sect feel the aura, so as soon as he entered, he felt the rich aura permeate his whole body.
This kind of strong aura, after he arrived at Zaitianfu, he never felt it again.
The disciples of the Karakuri Sect stood there stunned, not knowing what to say, just this method had already surpassed their Karakuri Sect.
"There's a little mouse. Zi Baifeng said to Zi Jian, and Zi Jian was a little puzzled: "What?"
Zi Baifeng explained with a smile, Zi Jian nodded, and said, "Don't worry about him." β
In fact, they also sent people to probe the progress and various activities of the Karakuri Sect, and the open and secret battles had already begun.
"The aura of the Zibaifeng plot is completely bound in a piece of land, and it is almost not lost outward, and the crystal tree is suspected to be some kind of advanced formation, which can gather and restrain the aura, and the effect is excellent. This Karakuri Sect disciple sent a message.
This news finally made Elder Pingshang unable to sit still, and a few minutes later, he had already arrived here in person.
It was just that at the first glance of the crystal tree, Elder Pingshang knew that his previous guesses were all nonsense, this crystal tree was definitely not a magic weapon, but more like the effect of the formation tangled aura.
Different formations will have different appearances, and even some huge and complex formations can form "live" formations with their own intelligence.
The formation of the Danmu Sect that had appeared before was like this.
"What did this Zi Baifeng do?" Elder Pingshang immediately stepped forward to check, but he couldn't see anything, although he was an elder of the miscellaneous sect, he also had a certain attainment in the formation method, and at this time, he couldn't even see how it worked here.
"Could it be that this demon fairy Bai Feng has really reached the point where he can speak his word and create things out of thin air?" he was shocked in his heart.
