Chapter 21 This puppet is very realistic
……

"Chen Jingyun, go on."

Wang Qianqian suddenly threw a spherical object over.

Chen Jingyun instinctively caught it when he heard it, but when he looked at it carefully, he suddenly felt numb all over and almost dropped the thing in his hand.

What Wang Qianqian threw over was actually a head!
It was a woman's head, with eyes, eyebrows, nose and mouth complete, very lifelike.

Except for the lack of hair, everything is very...beautiful...and weird!
Chen Jingyun said with some horror: "Miss Qianqian, aren't you imitating a Qi Refining Stage puppet? What's going on?"

"Isn't this my puppet project?" Wang Qianqian was proud but also a little helpless. "This project is too expensive. Just the preparation of these simulation materials and the nephrite jade I used cost me too much money."

Chen Jingyun was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and felt that Wang Qianqian seemed to have gone in the wrong direction.

Among the many in-laws of the Cangyi Chen family, there is one far away in the county town called the Hedong Gao family. They are very good at refining puppets. It is said that their family owns two foundation-building puppets.

More than half a year ago, Chen Jingrui, the son of fourth uncle Chen Daoyuan, married Gao Peilian, the second daughter of the Hedong Gao family. He wanted to bring happiness to ancestor Xuanmo, but in the end, the happiness failed.

As a cousin, Chen Jingyun also followed his fourth brother Chen Jingrui to go to the Gao family to welcome the bride and saw the Gao family's puppets.

Those puppets moved among the guests, acting as maids, which was truly an eye-opener.

But he had also heard that those puppets were extremely difficult to refine and were very expensive, with the cost far exceeding that of training a Qi Refining cultivator of the same level.

This is also the reason why Chen Jingyun turned around and left immediately when he heard Wang Qianqian say that she wanted to develop a Qi Refining Stage puppet project.

But even those low-level puppets of the Gao family were far from looking like real people, and were not as lifelike as the "beauty's head" in his arms.

Chen Jingyun paused for a moment and said kindly, "Miss Qianqian, the key to puppetry lies in practicality. No matter how realistic you make the puppet, it is still a puppet and not a person."

"Who said that?" Wang Qianqian retorted unhappily, "The puppet inheritance my grandfather left me said that a real puppet should be indistinguishable from the real thing. If it's not realistic, what fool would pay a lot of money to buy it? You are just an outsider, you know nothing."

Chen Jingyun was speechless.

What kind of radical puppet inheritance is this?
Anyway, Chen Jingyun never wanted to invest in this puppet project, and he doesn't want to invest in it even more now!
He changed the subject and said, "Miss Qianqian, let's focus on the small thunder and fire bombs. This thing is simple and makes money quickly."

"Of course." Wang Qianqian became excited when money was mentioned. In the studio, she opened another door and entered another secret room.

This secret room is slightly smaller than the outer room, and it has a built-in furnace, ventilation ducts, etc.

"This is my smelting room." Wang Qianqian introduced with a little pride, "Do you see that furnace? This furnace is the famous Jinyang furnace. I bought this repair shop because of this Jinyang furnace."

"Golden Sun Furnace?" Chen Jingyun paused for a moment, "I've also heard that there are three most famous beginner furnaces in the refining world. Among them, the Golden Sun Furnace has the best cost-effectiveness, the Quanshan Furnace has the most balanced overall performance, and the Dingkun Furnace has the strongest performance, but the construction requirements and cost are the highest."

"You actually know all this?" Wang Qianqian widened her starry eyes, a little surprised.

"Ahem." Chen Jingyun coughed twice, a little awkwardly. "To be honest, we have built a Dingkun furnace in our family's property [Fire Spirit Cave]."

At the beginning, the Chen family was ambitious to enter the equipment refining industry, and with their wealth and power, they naturally wanted to build the best.

As a result, the Dingkun Furnace is still sealed in the Fire Spirit Cave.

Wang Qianqian's eyes widened: "Dingkun furnace, that's a good thing, I must go and see it."

"Okay, after I finish all the miscellaneous matters in the market, I will take you to the Fire Spirit Cave to have a look and try out the Dingkun Furnace." Chen Jingyun said cheerfully, "It just so happens that the main material of this small thunder and fire bomb - phosphorus copper, comes from the Fire Spirit Cave."

After hearing this, Wang Qianqian seemed to be more motivated.

He asked Chen Jingyun for a spirit stone, activated the small protective formation in the smelting room, and began the tense and exciting process of developing the small thunder and fire bomb.

Grinding, weighing, mixing, smelting phosphorus copper... Wang Qianqian was busy and having a lot of fun.

Chen Jingyun, on the other hand, had nothing to do. He wanted to help, but he couldn't do anything.

Out of boredom, he found a place to sit down and began to think about some philosophical questions, such as, who am I? Where am I? What should I do?
Just when Chen Jingyun was drowsy.

Suddenly, Wang Qianqian exclaimed, "Young Master, be careful!"

Chen Jingyun woke up suddenly and saw that Wang Qianqian had a small flower umbrella in her hand. She ran towards him in small steps, then swung and opened the small flower umbrella, protecting both of them in the blink of an eye.

Chen Jingyun was a little confused and hadn't figured out what was going on. "Boom!"

There was a sudden loud bang, and the shock wave caused the small flower umbrella to tremble violently. The energy shield on the umbrella surface rippled and almost broke.

Chen Jingyun's whole body shook, his head immediately started buzzing, and the aftermath of the explosion continued to echo.

who I am? Where am I? What am I going to do?
"Young Master, are you okay?" Wang Qianqian put away the small flower umbrella, her innocent eyes full of concern.

“No…” Chen Jingyun shook his head violently, his eyes showing fear, “Wang Qianqian, what’s going on? Why did it explode?!”

"Master Jingyun, don't take it too seriously." Wang Qianqian relaxed when she saw that he was fine, and said calmly, "It's normal to have some explosions when doing research and development. Let's clean up and start the next round of experiments."

Such a relaxed attitude made Chen Jingyun feel suspicious.

Could it be that I really was making too much of a fuss?

Wang Qianqian cleaned up the mess quickly and immediately started the next round with full energy.

As Chen Jingyun watched, he fell into a drowsy state again.

After an unknown amount of time, he was awakened again by Wang Qianqian's scream.

"Be careful, son!"

Then, Chen Jingyun saw her running towards him with a small flower umbrella.

This time, Chen Jingyun didn't need her to remind him. He skillfully "slipped" and hid under her umbrella.

Then there was a loud "bang" and a violent shaking, and my head was buzzing.

After the explosion.

Wang Qianqian skillfully put away the small flower umbrella and began to clean up the aftermath of the explosion as if nothing had happened.

Only Chen Jingyun's mouth twitched slightly, and he suggested: "Miss Qianqian, how about we stop today's experiment and go back to Jintai Building for dinner?"

He had already made up his mind not to accompany her to the experiment tomorrow.

"Gudu!"

Wang Qianqian swallowed her saliva when she heard about dinner, but she quickly came to her senses and shook her head firmly, "No, how can you give up halfway? Besides, I've already touched the threshold. Sir, please bear with it, we can go back to eat in the evening."

Chen Jingyun was speechless for a while.

Then he spent the whole day in this state of "endurance".

When he and Wang Qianqian returned to Jintai Building, he felt numb all over and the sound of "boom boom boom" kept echoing in his head!
Wang Qianqian, on the other hand, was in high spirits the whole way: "Sir, let's get a few more materials tomorrow and try a few more times. Don't worry, I've already touched the threshold and will see results soon."

Chen Jingyun was as numb as a walking corpse and didn't want to talk to her.

But we arrived in front of Jintai Building.

But I found that there were many people gathered at the door, pointing at something.

Chen Jingyun was startled suddenly and woke up. He quickly pushed through the crowd to look inside, but the next moment his eyes widened in surprise.

Zhao Junfei, who had a serious conflict with him the day before, was now kneeling in front of Jintai Tower with his upper body naked and a thorny bramble on his back, his face full of shame.

Another elder of the Zhao family, who looked to be in his thirties or forties, bowed deeply to Chen Daoyuan in front of Jintai Building, with a look of deep sorrow and anguish on his face: "Brother Daoyuan, we in the Zhao family never thought that Zhao Junfei, this little beast, would do such a treasonous thing!"

"Fortunately, this little beast also knows that he is wrong and took the initiative to come forward to ask for forgiveness. No matter how the Chen family punishes him, we in the Zhao family will never say no."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a flood of discussion all around.
