I became an old man in my leisure time

Without salt, salty soy milk cannot be made. Gu Ke doesn’t drink salty soy milk either, so… long live sweet soy milk!

He likes salty tofu pudding, or the kind with chili oil and kohlrabi grains. It’s definitely not going to work in a short time, so it’s better not to torture yourself.

With the expectation of soy milk, Gu Ke fell asleep.

When he got up the next day and signed in, he ran to the field to see the soybeans he had planted without washing his face.

In just one night, a little bit of bean sprouts appeared.

But only three sprouted, and the two bad beans had no reaction. Obviously, the perception of plant affinity was correct.

There is no need to regret the expected things, as long as it is not a solitary product.

The yellow millet and black millet have not emerged yet, perhaps because the growth cycle is longer. This can be seen tonight.

He poured a little water on these sprouted and unsprouted new grains, and it was indeed what they needed for growth, and then he went back to wash with peace of mind.

On the other side, there was the sound of Bai Suqing calling Xiaoman to get up, and the little girl cried out.

He used his perception to "take a look" and found that Bai Suqing was swinging his hand and slapping Xiaoman on the butt to stop this guy from staying in bed.

It's funny to say that Xiaoman knew that he would be served by Bai Suqing's "slap of love" every morning, but he never changed his ways and even enjoyed it.

Maybe this is the life of a child. After all, a childhood without being slapped by his mother to get up is incomplete.

The mother's loving slap, broom, shoe soles, and feather duster are the "beautiful" childhood memories of many people.

But why did Xiaoman's flesh swell up like it was inflated? When Bai Suqing slapped him, Gu Ke could "see" circles of waves in his perception.

Thinking that the little girl practiced martial arts and worked every day, she had enough exercise, so she should not be fat, but normal development.

Her birthday was in spring, which meant she was still a few months away from turning fifteen. Gu Ke felt that the food had a huge impact on the child's physical growth.

Counting the girls on Miss Qin's side, only the hidden Sister Bai could suppress the fourteen-year-old Xiaoman.

So Xiaoman's talent was so extraordinary that Daman was not enough to describe it, or should it be called Taiman?

After breakfast, Gu Ke took Xiaoman to sort out the sundries brought back from the washing.

First, a large number of pots, bowls, and pans made of ceramics, wood, and porcelain were put into the "fully automatic washing bucket" one by one, and the water did not even need to be changed during the period.

Dust-repellent +1 will automatically wash the stains and dirt on the items into the water at a slightly farther distance.

As long as you don't feel disgusted, a bucket of water can wash a lot of things.

Gu Ke certainly wouldn't be so unsophisticated. The water for pots, bowls, and pans, pots, and cups was changed once, which was more acceptable psychologically.

But the messy sundries at the back, such as tables, chairs, and cabinets, were removed by Xiaoman with a thatched brush.

He brought these back mainly for reference.

After all, he had never worked as a carpenter or potter in his life. Thinking with his brain alone was not as efficient as imitating real objects.

As long as he had a clear starting direction, with his small hatchet and black evil palm, it would be easier for him to make anything than a simple craftsman.

The two of them cleaned up everything in the morning and put them in different categories.

After lunch, they each went to the workshop with a basket full of pots and pans.

Juqin waited at the door early again and took the basket from Gu Ke: "How about it, what are you going to do today?"

Gu Ke gestured at the things in the basket: "Refurbish them, maybe you can get some good things."

Juqin looked at the pots and pans in the basket and found it a little difficult to understand: "Refurbish?"

Gu Ke smiled and said: "Let's try it first."

Entering the south workshop, Miss Qin was waiting at the workbench.

Gu Ke couldn't help but secretly complain that this young lady was becoming less and less reserved. Did she really want to play?

Sure enough, Miss Qin's question was exactly the same as Juqin's, and he could only repeat the answer.

After sending Xiaoman to practice martial arts, he took out the items in the backpack one by one and put them on the workbench.

After a while, he chose a pottery jar with a hole on the edge and started making it.

Under the small hatchet, the pottery jar was neatly cut off a circle, and the hole disappeared naturally.

Gu Ke used the black evil palm to roughly grind off the roughness of the edge and chose to end the manufacturing.

The system prompts: "This manufacturing is completed, and a small pottery jar is obtained, and the basic attribute constant temperature +1."

Gu Ke curled his lips and handed it to Juqin casually: "It only has a constant temperature effect, keep it for water."

Juqin didn't dislike it.

They have two large vats, but they definitely can't put them in the bedroom and living room.

The diameter and height of this pottery jar are about seven inches, and now it has been cut one inch shorter, looking chubby and cute.

Miss Qin may dislike it, but Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju don't mind having such a water jar.

Put it beside the bed, and you can get hot water at night.

Take it outside, and you can drink purple leaf tea or sweet soup at any time when practicing martial arts, which is very convenient.

Gu Ke didn't want to waste too much time on these old objects, and almost all of them were done in the same way, basically maintaining the original state, only cutting off the gaps and damage, or polishing the irregularities.

Except for the smaller volume, there is almost no change in other aspects.

The basic attributes of constant temperature and purification of these utensils appear the most, while the basic attribute of pots is umami.

A polished small iron pot has a basic attribute of umami +1, and another small clay pot has a basic attribute of umami +5, which is considered a small top-grade product.

A larger clay pot has a basic attribute of only umami +1, but it has an additional attribute of toughness +1.

In addition to the basic attribute of purification +1, a teacup and two ceramic bowls also have the additional characteristic of clearing the mind +1.

Umami is an excellent basic attribute, especially for Gu Ke.

It does not provide any taste, but only amplifies the umami of the food itself.

Clear water will definitely not taste like chicken soup, but it is entirely possible to taste old hen soup from ordinary chicken soup.

After this basic attribute, he washed the cup on the spot and made himself a cup of purple leaf tea. The originally faint fragrance of the purple leaf became richer.

Considering that most of the food in the valley is boiled in water, for Gu Ke who urgently needs to improve the taste of food, this basic attribute is more practical than the characteristic.

For example, the characteristic of clearing the mind added by the teacup and ceramic bowl is a bit like a weakened version of Bingxin.

It can reduce distracting thoughts, be pure and natural, and accelerate martial arts training by 30% to 50%.

It is not as domineering as Bingxin's characteristic, and it does not have the magical effect of inner vision, but... it is convenient.

As long as the tea soup is placed in the cups and bowls for a cup of tea time, taking a big sip can achieve a state of clear mind, which lasts for about a cup of tea.

Xiaoman and the five maids who practiced martial arts were lucky. Two ceramic bowls were enough for each of them to take a big sip.

Martial arts practice only lasted for two hours a day. Excluding the rest time, each person could maintain a clear mind while practicing martial arts by drinking about half a catty of tea.

The tea cups were naturally shared by plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. The style and treatment of being a master should indeed be a little higher.

Miss Qin and Bai Suqing were forgotten.

Unless they had no choice, these two would definitely not use such things that had been passed through countless hands.

Gu Ke would not use it either. The characteristics had a very ordinary effect on his martial arts practice, and he was too lazy to use such N-hand goods.

Before dark, these bottles and jars were processed for the second time and left to Chunxiaqiudong and the others.

Xiaoman wanted to take a few back, but he grabbed the back of his neck and dragged him away.

The old ones at home will be eliminated sooner or later. If they are sent back at that time, what will people think? It would be better to just give them a gift.

There are ten people here, excluding Miss Qin, and dozens of bottles and jars are far from enough.

...

In the following days, Gu Ke looked after the three seedlings in the field every morning.

In the afternoon, he used the opportunistic method of minor repairs and modifications to put all the pots, pans, cups, plates, bowls and chopsticks at home and in the workshop on the workbench and "manufactured" them again.

The two steel pots used on both sides have an additional umami +1.

The small stone pot that Gu Ke used at first was too rough. After being refined, it got the basic attribute umami +5 and the characteristic solidity +5 double-top attributes, which made people laugh and cry.

This small stone pot is almost relegated to the third line and reduced to a water pot.

Watching it accompany Gu Ke through the hard days when he just crossed over, it was the first "gift" "sent" by Bai Suqing, and he paid a little attention when repairing it.

As a result, this small stone pot once again became the "number one" in the kitchen at home.

Fortunately, after the fine-tuning, it is simple and low-key, black, short, and with two stone handles, it feels a bit ugly.

More importantly, Bai Suqing will never refuse to eat the food made by it. After all, the family has been using it to boil water and cook porridge, and it is too late to dislike it.

This is the hypocrisy of people-many things can only be rejected and countless times, and countless times often start from the first time.

Miss Qin also gained a small teapot for her personal use-the kind that can boil water and make tea, or hold the spout to drink, and obtain the basic attribute of freshness +1, the characteristic of clear mind +5, an absolute small top-grade product.

Use this teapot to fill water and pour water to drink, and you can get the blessing of the clear mind +5 state.

If the benefit of clear mind +1 to martial arts practice is only one or two percent of the ice heart +5 bathtub, then the clear mind +5 is nearly one tenth.

And compared with fighting with the eldest lady for a bathtub, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum pouring water from this small teapot is not a big deal.

Of course, Gu Ke still got himself a little "benefit" and took all the bamboo cups at home for secondary manufacturing.

Most of them got the basic attribute of water purification, and a few got the characteristic of clear mind.

Anyway, there is no shortage of bamboo tubes, so if there is no characteristic, just process it a few more times, and it will be smaller at most.

The bluestone bowl given to Bai Suqing did not escape the fate of "re-melting", but it was successful at once and added the characteristic of clear mind +5.

Such a large number of secondary manufacturing allowed Gu Ke to touch the rules of basic attributes and characteristics.

When he was refining the small stone pot, he appeared in the state when he made the Bingxin bathtub. He was focused and devoted, and felt slightly tired afterwards.

When he repaired Bai Suqing's bluestone bathtub and bluestone bowl, he also felt tired, but at that time he thought he was too devoted and didn't care much.

Miss Qin's small teapot did not have this feeling, but the small teapot itself was made by a master.

Before the secondary processing, the small teapot was a work of art, simple but not simple, which made people feel comfortable when they saw it, which was a bit similar to Bai Suqing's bluestone bowl.

He speculated that perhaps the characteristics depend on the degree of fit between the material and the object after it is formed, and also test the degree of investment of the maker.

The smoother and more natural the manufacturing of the object, the easier it is to obtain the characteristics.

Having a direction and taking chances are two different things. After mastering this rule, it will be much easier for him to add characteristics to the object in the future.

As for the basic attributes, it is likely related to Gu Ke's own understanding of the object.

He thinks that if he is making a bathtub, then the basic attribute of constant temperature will appear after the manufacturing is completed.

If he thinks that a large vat can be used as both a bathtub and a water vat, he will randomly choose between constant temperature and purification.

If it is a pot, it will produce umami, and if it is a teacup, it will produce purification.

Miss Qin's small teapot can be used to boil water and drink water, so he prefers it to be a water-boiling item, so the basic attribute is still umami.

From this, it can be inferred that the basic attributes can also be affected by him, and they are simpler and more direct than the characteristics.

With these inferences, he decisively made a batch of bamboo chopsticks with bamboo, because a single piece can be made quickly enough.

Under his deliberate "misleading" situation, the basic attributes of bamboo chopsticks are different.

Some have obtained purification +1, which is to be used as chopsticks, which must be clean and hygienic.

Some have obtained firmness +1, which is to use it to hang heavy objects.

Some have obtained sharpness +1, which is to use it to pierce food.

During this period, two bamboo chopsticks with characteristics were even produced, one for testing poison and the other for warding off poison.

When he was doing this, he inexplicably thought of the scene in martial arts novels where silver chopsticks were used to test poison, and he ended up with this pair of rather bizarre "combination" chopsticks.

After thinking about it, he decided to give them to Bai Suqing.

A good horse should be matched with a good saddle, and good chopsticks should be matched with a good bowl.

The bluestone bowl has characteristics, so shouldn't it be matched with a pair of purple bamboo chopsticks with characteristics!

While he was busy farming and secondary processing, some other things happened, such as... Miss Qin and Bai Suqing went out to fight alone.

Of course, the two women obviously didn't want to be noticed by others, so they walked a distance to the top of the peak, and the noise of the fight was also controlled very little.

But this couldn't be hidden from Gu Ke's constantly expanding and increasingly keen perception.

And when they started, the feedback of their perception was quite strong, and he couldn't help but pay attention.

Two figures, one blue and one red, flew and leaped on the snowy Yulong Peak, and the blue and red blood intertwined and offset each other, making a hissing sound.

Bai Suqing's voice was clear and agile, passing through the snowflakes at will, penetrating every hole.

Miss Qin's swiftness was accompanied by a hint of softness, and her domineering attitude revealed a sense of ease and control.

The green air was like waves, and the red was like clouds, fighting evenly between the white snow and the black mountains.

This fight lasted only a cup of tea, and the final result was a draw.

Gu Ke simply relied on his own perception and felt that Miss Qin was definitely stronger, taking the initiative and having a clear advantage.

However, now they are companions, and the two women only fought for a short cup of tea to test each other's strength and stop there.

In addition to talent, there is only one main reason for the difference in strength between the two women, that is - the Lieyang Sutra.

The Lieyang Sutra is also unique among the top martial arts, and has achieved many seventh-turn martial arts masters, many eighth-turn martial arts masters, and the founder is even a ninth-turn martial arts saint.

The Blue Sea and Blue Sky method that Bai Suqing practiced was only of the middle grade. Only a few of the ancestors in the past had the opportunity to become martial masters, and the rest stopped at the sixth level.
