Longevity begins with loose cultivation

Chapter 108

At night, Lu Zhong sat cross-legged.

Just now he had already refined a Jade Condensation Pill.

The effect is gratifying, comparable to refining two Peiyuan pills in the past.

Different from the elixir refined by the fire refining method, the spiritual energy of the water refining elixir is obviously much softer, and the impurities contained in the elixir are more than half less than that of the fire refining method.

Regardless of the price, this Yu Ning Pill is indeed a good medicine.

After carefully comprehending the changes brought about by the improvement of cultivation base, Lu Zhong saw that it was just late at night, and there was still a long time before dawn, so he dug out the "Introduction to Puppet Mechanism Beast" and read it.

It's not that he wants to take the path of puppet mechanism master, but just wants to understand the way of puppet.

If you know more about puppet mechanism masters, you will have a better chance of winning against such monks in the future.

Turning to the first page is mainly an introduction to the Way of Puppets.

After reading it briefly, the more than [-] words at the beginning are basically about one thing, that is, the way of puppet is a way comparable to the way of sword practice, and you can also achieve something after you go to the end.

This confirms the old saying, the more there is nothing, the more emphasis there is on something.

Lu Zhong was noncommittal about this, and continued to read, and turned to the principle of the way of puppet.

Although puppets and mechanism beasts belong to the same group, there are actually quite a few differences. If the strength of mechanism beasts driven by machine souls comes from the accumulation of rare materials, then puppets controlled by spirit pivots are the opposite. Pay more attention to the cultivation of spirituality.

"The cultivation of spirituality is somewhat similar to the refining of spiritual weapons." Thinking of this, Lu Zhong couldn't help but think of his Wutu Ruimu spiritual ring. He still doesn't know how to start with how to cultivate its spirituality.

"Perhaps the puppet's way of cultivating the puppet's spirituality can also be applied to this precept."

With this in mind, I turn another page.

In order to prevent missing important information, he did not skip pages.

As the pages of the book continued to be turned, Lu Zhong had a deeper understanding of the way of puppets.

Soon, he saw what he wanted.

Spirit sacrifice method.

Through a special magic weapon called "sacrifice vessel", the puppet mechanism master can sacrifice the collected souls and integrate the spirituality in the souls into the puppet body, so as to achieve the purpose of cultivating the spirituality of the puppet.

Turning to the back, it is about the refining of sacrificial vessels, and there are special templates for reference.

After looking at it, Lu Zhong found that ordering a sacrificial vessel didn't seem to cost much.

"If you have time, you must try the spirit sacrificial method."

After all, spiritual weapons are not as easy to refine as magical weapons, so the price of each piece starts with five-figure spirit stones. If he can really cultivate the spiritual ring into a spiritual weapon, then he will definitely be able to make a lot of money.

……

After dawn, Lu Zhong started to debug the printing tools, and based on his previous experience in machinery, he made some improvements to the tools, which improved its printing efficiency a lot.

Tried it to make sure the tool can print smoothly.

"Come on, try it." Lu Zhong said to Xunlingshu.

Yongling City is not like Yanlingshanfang City. The surrounding spiritual veins have been occupied by the Xiuxian family. After hundreds of years of pioneering and development, there are no monsters and beasts within a hundred miles, and the elixir is only stored in the elixir garden. , so the spirit-seeking talent of the spirit-seeking mouse is useless in Yongling City.

Before developing new uses, it can only be allowed to work first.

After all, food can’t be eaten for free, it has to be paid for by hard work.

The spirit-seeking mouse rubbed its paws, stood up and walked in front of the printing tool, its dark eyes were full of bewilderment, its little head didn't know what to do next.

"Squeak..."

Lu Zhong sighed and didn't blame it.

"Look, I'll just demonstrate once."

The movement is slow and standard, and the steps are disassembled step by step.

Now, the spirit-seeking mouse finally understood.

Let's start to operate again. Although there are still many mistakes in its movements this time, after some corrections by Lu Zhong, a talisman-making book is still printed.

Without letting the spirit-hunting mouse continue, he flipped through the talisman-making book.

The purpose of this move is not only to check for omissions and fill vacancies, but also to adjust the layout of the book by the way, so as not to look extraordinarily cheap and affect subsequent sales.

After some adjustments, a new talisman-making book was printed.

There is no problem with the talisman making book this time.

"From now until sunset, you have to print five copies, do you understand!" Lu Zhong gave a relatively low task load, so as to give the spirit mouse some time to adapt to his identity.

"Squeak!"

The spirit-hunting mouse has a miserable face. It has not yet understood how it became a working mouse, but it can still understand what its master said with the help of the slave contract.

So nodded.

Lu Zhong, who had arranged the task, was not idle, and was going to go out to inspect the stalls in the city.

I'm new here, and I'm not familiar with the place.

If you don't do some research in advance, you may get into some trouble because of this.

The first is the small internal market of Changle Square. Whether it is a merchant or a casual repairman who sets up a stall, the market sells some low-level talismans such as cleaning talismans and disease-dispelling talismans. The consumer groups do not match Lu Zhong’s target talismans. If you sell the Qingyang amulet here, it is estimated that the sales at the beginning will be terrible.

After leaving the small market, Lu Zhong came to the big city of Nancheng.

The positioning of Nancheng City is slightly lower than that of the central area, but it is also a very prosperous commercial area. Even in sunny daytime, the neon spirit stone lights here are still dazzling.

Compared with the small market in the square, the value of the goods sold in the shops in the big market is obviously much higher than the former.

When he came to the stall area here, he had the feeling of being in the Yanling Mountain stall area. The only difference was that the bargaining here was louder and more intense. This may be due to the huge life pressure in Yongling City. As a result, both buyers and sellers want to achieve their own goals.

This also made him secretly think about how he should set the price of the secret talisman so that he can maximize the benefits of selling talismans with less effort.

"Oh, it would be great if I could be a hands-off shopkeeper..." Lu Zhong thought with a sigh.

He recalled his purpose of coming to Yongling City. At first, it was to solve the hidden dangers of the Four Spiritual Art, and even to find a way to join the Helingzong. earn on.

Sometimes, Lu Zhong wondered whether he should change his way of life.

Or make a living by hunting animals, or simply like a storybook novel, actively or passively involved in a series of troubles, so that whether it is cultivation resources or opportunities, they will come to your door by themselves. Live so tired.

"It's a pity that reality is not a script, so there are so many inexplicable troubles."

He has heard a lot about the Great Cultivator's Cave Mansion in the ancient secret realm. Don't look at one or two that are passed on miraculously. There are many crises and tests along the way, and it will take a narrow escape. You will not know until the final harvest. It's not as much money as the talisman pills that were consumed on the way.

Even, the biggest harvest is very likely to come from the legacy of his companions.

Just as Lu Zhong was thinking, he suddenly heard a burst of sobbing from the side, and it sounded familiar.

"Oh, it's her?"

Move your eyes to the side alley, and you can see a thin girl inside, the little girl of the father and daughter who kindly sent him off that day, and now she is crying on a dead body, which has not yet solidified from the ground. Judging from the fresh blood, the man should have died not long ago.

Is it a vendetta, or...

Whatever the reason, Lu Zhong did not intend to intervene.

In this human-eating world of comprehension, there are many mortals who are worse than the little girl. Take the struggling mortals in Yanling Mountain as an example, any one of them will be more than ten times worse than her.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw a big man with a scarred head coming from the end of the alley.

That demeanor was obviously intended to be detrimental to the little girl.

"Hey, can't you come out after I leave?" Lu Zhong sighed.

Originally, he could pretend not to know, but now he couldn't ignore it. After all, he took a ride with them at that time, so there was no reason not to do a small favor.

"Help... help, daddy save me!" The heart-piercing cry came and reached the ears of passers-by on the street.

A mortal stopped in his footsteps, showing a look of unbearable expression, but his companion stopped him with his eyes.

If you meddle in your own business, the dead body may appear in the gutter tomorrow.

As for the monks who passed by, they first cast interested eyes, and after seeing that they were just mortals, they all lost interest.Although it doesn't show it on the face, in the eyes of most monks, mortals are not of the same race at all, they are basically tool people.

In the case of no benefits to be obtained, the monk's attitude towards mortals is definitely called cold-blooded.

"It's a pity, this bone is still a beauty embryo, but it's a pity that it's still too small to grow, so I can only sell it to Mama Zhang for a few talismans to spend." The little girl in linen mentioned it, looked at it a few times and said disappointedly.

But when he turned around, he saw a young man dressed in black with a pure demeanor.

And the long sword that radiated azure blue light and exuded a dangerous atmosphere.

"Immortal... Master Immortal, please forgive me!"

How did the big man with a swollen head know that he could provoke a high-ranking immortal teacher by picking up a trick? He was so scared that he was so scared that he was so scared that he was out of breath before Lu Zhong could make a move.

"Scared to death like this?" Lu Zhong scattered Chi Yang's sword, a little dumbfounded.

But this is also good, saving him a lot of trouble.

Looking at the little girl tied up on the ground, Lu Zhong condensed a spiritual force from his fingertips, and cut the hemp rope with a single touch. This was an extra help he gave.

Didn't say anything, just turned around and left.

"Gululu..." came the sound of wheels.

A stooped white-haired old woman in black came pulling a cart. She was in charge of collecting corpses in Yongling City. When she saw the corpses of two strong men on the ground, she couldn't help but secretly said bad luck.

Originally, this trip only needed to pull one corpse, but now it has become two.

"Bah, bah, bah!" She spat on the dead man's body a few times, and stomped a few more feet in frustration.

Her gaze shifted to the little girl with dull eyes. Greed flashed in the old woman's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by the fear of death. She could see the scene clearly just now, and knew that the little girl might have something to do with the immortal master. Relationships are not something you can provoke.

It should be noted that Lutou is a lesson learned from the past, but even the blood is not cold.

……

I went to the central area again, where there are also stalls
After careful investigation, Lu Zhong finally decided to set up a stall in Nancheng Dashi first.

The reason for this decision is because of the booth fee.

Setting up a stall in Yongling City is different from that in Yanlingshanfang City, that is, you need to pay a stall fee for setting up a stall here. a small amount.

Compared with the price of one spirit stone each time in the central area, the price of ten talismans in the big city of Nancheng is cheaper.

However, he also intends to try them separately to see how the sales of talismans will be different if they set up stalls in two different places. If the gap is huge, then he has to reconsider.

Back to the small courtyard by the river, the river in the setting sun is dotted with golden light, which can be regarded as a beautiful scene.

But soon, his good mood was gone.

It may be that the mouse's intelligence is not enough, and it is really unable to support it to complete the complicated task of printing a book, so that it has set five printing goals, but only one is the final product.

The other four books all started to make mistakes as soon as they were printed, and the mistakes became more and more outrageous.

Analyzing the cause of the problem, it is probably that the spirit mouse can only imitate, but does not understand how to print the book correctly, so that it gradually makes mistakes in the imitation process.

"It's really embarrassing for your little head." Lu Zhong said while touching the bewildered spirit mouse.

So, how to solve this matter?
It is impossible to do it yourself.

Limited by the crude printing tools, the printing speed is doomed not to be fast.

Selling talisman books can also be regarded as a way to earn spirit stones. In addition to selling Qingyang body talisman secret talisman books, Lu Zhong also plans to expand his business. When he successfully buys a shop in the future, there may be sales such as seven Xuan avoid arrows rune book, the possibility of cleaning rune book.

"Perhaps it's time to support and cultivate a force."

Lu Zhong already had this intention in his heart. After all, what a monk has to do is to continuously increase his cultivation base, and then continue to break through the realms, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of longevity.

In the process, it is not advisable to do everything by yourself.

Many things can be done with less time and effort with only a small price.

In this way, more energy can be put on the improvement of cultivation.

"So, how to proceed?"

As Lu Zhong thought about it, a figure appeared in his mind.

Well, the first tool person is you.

Turning around and coming to Nancheng Dashi, the little girl was nowhere to be seen in the alley.

"It's really troublesome, so use it to test the psychic tracing technique." Lu Zhong picked up the rags that were stained with the little girl's breath, and used the psychic tracing technique he had just learned.

It took a little spiritual power to cast the spell three times before it succeeded.

Due to the weak connection between the medium and the target, the trace aura that appeared was very weak. Fortunately, it seemed that the distance was not too far, so it didn't take much time.

All the way to trace and trace, the trace of spiritual light finally pointed to a pavilion named "Yichun Court".
