out of cage

In the eyes of ordinary people, Luo Kingdom is an independent vassal state within the Dazong court.

2000 years ago, when the emperor was riding his horse across the world, a good brother fought with the emperor. After the emperor achieved hegemony, the three rich counties in the south were entrusted to this good brother and made him the side-by-side king.

But if you are a real person in the cultivation world, you can know that this matter is by no means that simple.The good brother of the founding emperor of the Dazong Dynasty was a cultivator of immortality.Immortal cultivators do not admire imperial power, but considering the understanding of mortal cause and effect, they let their descendants without spiritual roots enjoy this fiefdom.

This is Mount Luomang, there is a spiritual vein on the mountain, and a family of cultivators is located here, and the family name is "Zuoqiu".It is said that the ancestors of his family were the ancestors of the Jindan period. Of course, this Xiuxian family is affiliated with Zhu Mingzong.

It is worth mentioning that in the mortal world, the Dazong Dynasty divided the three southern counties into the Luo Kingdom. The reason behind this is also related to the Immortal Cultivation World, a cultivating family that has taken refuge in Zhumingzong.

After Wei Keng arrived here, he soon saw the local casual cultivators. Oh, it was because of Wei Keng's excellent spiritual perception that he noticed the Xiuxianfang City on the top and bottom of Luoyuan Mountain. The whole city is located on the remaining aura of the mountain. .

In the eyes of mortals, this mountain is shrouded in a layer of mist all the year round. When the hunters entered the mountain, they suddenly found themselves unconscious at the foot of the mountain.At the same time, there are no wolves, tigers or leopards to be seen in the vast mountains.

But this is the most famous square city for the scattered cultivators in the entire Da Zong facing southwest.

The square market is co-hosted by "tea, wine, soup" three monks who are all foundation-building period monks.Its name is also related to its good skills, "spiritual tea", "spiritual wine" and "spiritual soup".

These three are side-doors of cultivating all kinds of arts. Compared with those orthodox "dan", "talisman" and "sword", they are completely partial. Compared with other sects, this kind of casual practice is much more peaceful.

This is the reason why the Zuoqiu family on Mount Luo could allow these three casual cultivators to open a market on this small spiritual vein.

Speaking of which, each of the arts of cultivation has its own value, but as the aura of heaven and earth weakens, those cultivation arts with too single value face the problem of inheritance.

For example, the line of alchemy, because it is most suitable for the various needs of contemporary monks about "recovering mana", "recovering blood essence" and "breaking through cultivation", so it is chosen by a large number of practitioners as a minor, and the inheritance of "alchemy" is not a problem .But in fact, is alchemy the best solution for all kinds of cultivation?
In terms of restoring mana, "spiritual wine" is better than panacea, unless the pill is top-grade.There is more or less a trace of erysipelas in it. If you drink pills continuously to restore mana, you will experience tearing pain in your meridians, but spirit wine is much better.

In terms of warming and nourishing mana, spiritual tea is the best.Relying on elixir to increase mana is a bit confusing, but the supplementary increase in spirit tea is much gentler.

On healing: decoction is the best.Because whether it is treating losses or detoxification, it is necessary to take care of it carefully, otherwise it will leave blemishes. The healing of the elixir is to force the spiritual power to repair the wound. In the belly, the surging aura directly fills the tendons, and it must be regulated by luck to be effective.The decoction spiritual power is much milder, and at the same time it will pull out the pathology, whether it is poisoning or loss, it has a good effect of regulating the essence.

But now it is obviously not the prosperous age of cultivation in ancient times, and there has long been no detailed division of labor in the cultivation world.Danxiu's panacea can cover everything, and other cultivation arts are abandoned in the same quality competition.

Now, those sects with Yuanying old monsters will raise some monks who are good at "spiritual tea", "spiritual wine" and "decoction". Of course, most of the time, this is only a hobby of high-level cultivators, such as Yuanying Lao After the ancestors have no hope of advancing, they always have to do some research, which is better than nothing.

Aside skills lack a foothold, the Zuoqiu family seems to be magnanimous, allowing three casual cultivators to open the market, in fact, the calculation is very subtle.For the casual cultivators, lack of means of fighting skills, gathered with three sidemen of the Foundation Establishment Period, and were deliberately led to these side arts, helped the disciples of the Zuoqiu family to buy these cheap items when they went out to practice.

…Wei Keng: Oh, it’s similar to the operation of the global division of labor on the other side of the earth, which is not good at playing with scissors. …

After Wei Keng entered Fangshi, he rented a house with five spirit stones for one year.Afterwards, Wei Keng buckled and quickly calculated how much Lingshi he could spend.

Wei Keng has no shortage of spirit stones now. The half-human, half-bird guy who licked his bag earlier and died of "scourge" is in the foundation building stage.

Wei Keng buried most of his things somewhere, and it took several years before he opened his storage bag.At that time, I was afraid that there would be some "ghost" playing in the house, and the filth would eat back.

There are more than 1000 spirit stones in the storage bag, and two or three of them have obviously higher spiritual power than ordinary spirit stones.

Now Wei Keng himself began to awaken his "treasure hunting talent". Some of the spiritual stones were buried shallower, only about fifty feet away, and Wei Keng also picked up 23 of them!
During the qi training period, the spirit rats are patrolled, and the search for spirit objects is done by monks using things like feeding spirit pills to lure them out to do business. As for the conscious enhancement of abilities, animals do not have that spirituality and can only rely on awakening.

Wei Keng's "spiritual perception" has been accumulated positively through data analysis in the past few years. It has long been much stronger than the spirit patrol mouse, and its usage is not only "spiritual search"

Wei Keng predicted that he should be very rich among junior cultivators.

However, Wei Keng didn't know if he was "out of line".Out of money not to leak out!Wei Keng only showed up bit by bit.

Facts have proved that Wei Keng is still rich. He entered Fangshi and took out five spirit stones, which had attracted all kinds of attention. Then he took out two spirit stones to buy [-] pieces of talisman paper, a book of true interpretation of runes , As for the paints and pens needed to make talismans, Wei Keng himself has them.

After purchasing all these, Wei Keng returned to his residence under the eyes of almost everyone.

Later, Wei Keng learned that for the introductory disciples of the Martial School, the monthly spiritual stone welfare in the early stage of Qi training is only one Lingshi, in the middle stage of Qi training is two, and in the advanced stage of Qi training is four. Xiu was envious.Many casual qi practitioners can't save three spiritual stones in Fangshi within a year.Wei Keng threw out ten of them at once, no less than the pocket money of twenty to thirty thousand in front of college students who had just entered the job with a salary of four to five thousand in modern times.

After diving headfirst into his own market, Wei Keng began to study spiritual energy.

When it comes to the talisman pen, although it must be the fur of the spirit fox as the nib, and the spirit wood as the pen rafter (big pen is like a rafter).

As for the principle, the natural channels on the fur of the spirit beast will guide the spiritual power as if converging to the tip of the pen, and the compressed spiritual power will form multiple strings during the process of condensing the spiritual power at the tip.These fluctuating lines form a loop as the pen falls, forming a temporarily stable closed loop, that is, a rune.

After figuring out the principle, Master Wei's thinking does not stick to the fixed runes of "true interpretation of runes".

Thinking is very biased, but Wei Keng was very conservative in the beginning, trying to learn all the successful operation experience stroke by stroke.Then try in the direction of various "error rates" that you have.

Some of these directions with a high "error rate" can increase the stability of the talisman, but reduce the power, and some can increase the power, but increase the loss of the talisman.

...If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools...

On the way to the south, Wei Keng wandered through cities, and when he passed some antique markets on the street, he would find some indestructible artifacts.

In the long history, it is very common for immortal cultivators to fight with each other. The magical weapons that are broken by their fighting skills will flow into the mortal world and be collected.But for the human world, a few percent of these dilapidated fragments can be used, some will be decorated as swords, and some will be hung on the roof as tiles. Wei Keng has even seen a certain The nails on this magic weapon were picked up by mortals and nailed to the coffin board.

Wei Keng's talisman pen, the pen holder, is an "arrow shaft" picked up. When Wei Keng found this arrow shaft, it was already embedded in the stones in the mountain.

The pole is Thunderbolt willow with perfect energy lines running through it.

As for the fine hair on the nib, Mr. Wei raised a strand of hair himself, and selected even sections to make the nib.

In this way, Wei Keng formed his own exclusive talisman pen.

Of course, making talismans requires the blood of spirit beasts as a spiritual power stabilizer. When Wei Keng bought the talisman paper, he asked the merchant to give him two bottles. Of course, these are the most basic monster spirit blood.

Everything was ready, only the east wind was needed, Wei Keng calculated the time of day, and one morning, he faced the sun and inhaled a large amount of morning dew.This way of eating is already Wei Keng's daily homework. This day after day of absorbing the energy of the sun and the moon, the internal energy is much stronger than those so-called innate masters in the mortal dynasties in the world!

Innate zhenqi is a kind of power that even innate warriors are not confident in facing cultivators, because it is said that even innate warriors cannot hold a small fireball.

After grasping it repeatedly, Wei Keng determined that the innate qi structure in the late stage was relatively fragile and could not block the energy structure of the aura.After encountering it, it was like melting ice and snow.But this innate qi can be used to neutralize the instability caused by a wrong operation of the spirit technique.This is very useful. For example, talisman making and alchemy require a fault tolerance rate.

...There are many ways to improve the fault tolerance rate, but most of the steeped monks may not be able to draw inferences like Wei Keng...

Before drawing the runes, Wei Keng chose the best time for the sky and began to adjust the stability of his body. According to the situation of some rune masters, the success rate would drop significantly after drawing hundreds of runes every day.

This reduced success rate may seem metaphysical at first.But after in-depth research, when the entire rune is drawn, the stability of the spiritual power comes from itself in the final analysis. After drawing hundreds of times, the entropy accumulates to a certain level and cannot be stabilized. Of course, the rune cannot be determined.

For those teenagers in the Jianghu, when the first ray of warm inner breath flows in the body, most of the warriors who have just entered the inner energy, the expectation of the inner energy is to let it grow stronger, and then grow stronger!Can explode with greater power.

Wei Keng's requirement is "fit": fit with body movement, fit with day and night, fit with the cycle of four seasons, fit with the rotation of heaven, earth and stars.

Over the past few years, Wei Keng's true energy has not grown very strong, but it is getting faster and faster!The wisps of innate air currents can already shuttle through the body like bullets, and now they can burst out like bullets and stop suddenly at the same time!

It can be said that Wei Keng's current body is a precision lathe compared to those who wield knives and guns.

...Actually, Wei Keng cannot be superficially said to be Xiuwu, but belongs to Xiuyuan...

In the temporary residence, Wei Keng felt that the time was good, and he gradually became familiar with the rules of rhythm. Wei Keng began to draw runes.

The rune had to be drawn, it couldn't be cleverly printed.This is like a chip, which must be engraved by a lithography machine instead of being branded on a branding board.Because each stroke must be intended to guide the energy path of the "one-dimensional line" to advance, and then finally complete the closed-loop cycle process.

The entire immortal way is authentic, so many geniuses since ancient times, Wei Keng is a middle-aged man, he can only follow the direction of their efforts, constantly fill in the gaps, and make up for it with more efforts.

In the room, Wei Keng concentrated his attention and began to write. The spiritual power on the pen tip gathered and began to form a "spiritual focus" point. This point fell on the material, and then began the "one-dimensional" line. The "one-dimensional" energy activity of the line has always come from the infusion of spiritual power from the tip of the pen. Once the infusion disappears, the energy of the entire line will collapse instantly.

But fortunately, the first talisman in actual combat, with the pen tip ending and starting point perfectly closed, after Wei Keng's first rune was successfully condensed, the three-dimensional aura suddenly became two-dimensional, and the aura fluctuated like a dragon condensing on the talisman At that time, Wei Keng stared at the talisman paper in amazement, as if he saw a beautiful woman jumping into the paper and becoming a part of the scroll.

Previously, Wei Keng had deduced countless times in the system, and he must succeed in the process of attacking!
Of course, in Wei Keng's eyes, there is still room for improvement in this kind of success. The whole rhythm can be a little faster, the energy accumulation of the pen tip can be more concentrated, and if the stabilizer such as spirit beast blood is reduced by three points, the cost can be better. control.

Ever since, Wei Keng's rune-making process is like a nuclear bomb test. After the first nuclear test was successful, he began to continuously streamline the process based on basic data.

Six times in No.30 and two times in No.70, two runes failed to be constructed, one of which was directly abolished, and the other rune structure was drawn wrongly, and one-third of the raw materials were used to remedy it.

Then Wei Keng became more comfortable with this first-level rune.Gradually start adding energy details,
For example, in the fireball technique, Wei Keng added a little bit of wood augmentation technique, which can make the fireball technique contaminate (this is the concept of gasoline bombs), and like the most difficult ice cone technique, Wei Keng crystallized inside it A large number of ice needles are added inside, which can have the effect of cluster bombs.

Wei Keng began to ponder the experience of these runes and the feeling of getting more and more proficient in his hands.

On the Talisman, it is called "inspiration" by the monks.At this time, Wei Keng's speed of making talismans was definitely at the genius level.

But in the words of Wei Keng, a middle-aged man, it is all about the total amount of data and energy, and the research of the development sequence is in place, and the detailed steps are honed every step of the way, so you can learn quickly.

Wei Keng: In the words of modern times, if the funds, personnel, and policies are in place, the technology will be in place for you.

Wei Keng only makes runes for one hour a day. It’s not that he can’t do runes at other times, but that his body adjusts periodically to make his work the most efficient during this time. Time to do other things.

Even though it was only done for one hour a day, all four hundred talismans were finished in three days.

After the fourth day, Wei Keng walked out of his alley and returned to the store with the goods.Only then did Wei Keng confirm that the name of the shop was "Zhiwu Pavilion".

There happened to be two monks, a man and a woman, waiting in the shop. Oh, they were sitting in the VIP Pavilion beside them.

Master Wei is not interested in drinking tea there, just like a boy visiting a supermarket, the distance from the gate to the shelf cabinet is a straight line.

Wei Keng came immediately, and knocked on the door of the cabinet selling rune paper: "Boss, I'm here to buy."

The person on the counter was a third-level qi training apprentice, a clever ten-year-old child.Of course, there are also beauties in this store, but that's not on the counter.At this time, Wei Keng's spiritual cultivation has been suppressed in the early stage of Qi training due to the cover of innate qi, but in fact Wei Keng is at the sixth level of Qi training (and all attributes).

The qi training apprentice said: "Here, fellow daoist, this is? Huh? Last time, did you use the talisman paper?" (He wanted to say that the waste was over, but he stopped talking)
Looking at this cautious little doll, Wei Keng couldn't help thinking of teasing him.

Wei Keng: "It's all used up, buy some, and give me four thousand primary talisman papers, and thirty bottles of blood from first-order monsters."

The apprentice paused: "Fellow Daoist, you are asking for too much, and these are fifty spirit stones, you...?" He wanted to take a look at Wei Keng's spirit stones.

Wei Keng: "You accept it, the goods for the goods, right?"

The apprentice said: "Of course."

Wei Keng: "That's good." Speaking of this, Wei Keng opened the storage bag like a nouveau riche, and took out a stack of first-level runes, just like a bundle of hundred-dollar bills, of course he took out At that moment, a terrifying pressure caused the apprentice on the counter to stagger immediately.

Runes are offensive bullets in the world of comprehension. I took out a large stack. How should I put it, this is similar to the squad heavy machine gun with a belt loaded in an American gun shop.

Wei Keng asked suspiciously, "Can't you be in charge of this amount?"

The apprentice stared at Wei Keng's talisman papers. From the shape and quality of the talisman papers, he knew that this was the paper they sold, and only [-] pieces were sold at that time, and now they are all here!This means that the symbol making rate is over [-]%?He realized a possibility - "Fuxiu".

"Muchia, go prepare spirit tea." At this time, the shopkeeper's voice came from the back hall, and relieved the little apprentice who was serving Wei Keng.

However, Wei Keng was narrow-minded: "Muchia, I don't drink tea, I just stay by the side."

The little apprentice froze slightly, Wei Keng smiled at him, and then suddenly threw him a spirit stone, the apprentice froze suddenly.Wei Keng: "Seeing that you are destined, let's go."

This kind of meeting gave him a spirit stone. Of course Wei Keng saw that he was destined to see him. Of course, to reflect his current mystery, there are other people in this shop.

The shopkeeper was a female cultivator. The shopkeeper was sitting in the shop. She bowed slightly to the two family immortal cultivators who were serving in front of her, and said that she would deal with Wei Keng's business first.However, the monk from the Zuoqiu family also seemed to be interested in the outside world and wanted to come out.

…Wei Keng: If I choose alchemy, I have to think about how to escape when I leave this door. …

The female cultivator said: "Little girl, Qingyao, this fellow Taoist just came to Sanyoufang City, so he really can't be judged by his appearance."

Wei Keng was a little embarrassed by the nun's enthusiasm: "I've been busy recently, so don't make an appointment, let's finish the business, I want the materials for making talismans."

The female nun in the shop asked, "Can I test your rune?" She came over lightly, and Wei Keng smelled the fragrance of a woman head-on.

Wei Keng was confused: "Yes."

At this moment, the young man from the Zuoqiu family stood up: "This fellow Taoist, shopkeeper of Qingyao, if you don't mind, can you let me participate?"

Wei Keng was stunned for a moment and immediately recovered, glanced at him, and thanked him slightly in his heart: "Fellow Taoist is interested, that's natural." Do not admit that I have low concentration)
At this time, another female cultivator of the Zuoqiu family also said: "Is Taoist friend a talisman cultivator? If you are free, can you sit at the house. As for your batch of goods, I will add [-]% to the price."

The price of two spirit stones in the market is the price of the spells of the elementary spells in the Qi refining period.This is not uncommon in the market.

However, in the rumors of how many casual cultivators fight, when the two sides fight to the last breath, often a spell becomes the straw that crushes the opponent, which makes buying amulets the only way for kryptonites.

In the talisman market, the most important factor for each store to consider in terms of low-level runes is "stable shipments", and the effectiveness of low-level runes is only eight years.During the time of hunting monsters every three years, or rewarding trials such as Foundation Establishment Pills, the market needs a large number of runes, and the price will double at that time.Therefore, it is a gesture of favor for this family nun to add [-]% to the current price.

Qingyao said displeasedly: "Sister Qiangxuan, this is my guest." After seeing Wei Keng holding his breath, she didn't use the trick just now.

Wei Keng interrupted the argument, and said to the shopkeeper, "At the moment, let's settle this business first."

Wei Keng is very business-minded.
