Asking about longevity

Chapter 34 Formation Construction

It turned out to be a molten fire array... Mo Hua said.

That's right, Master Chen nodded. When he saw Mo Hua, he recognized the formation at a glance. He somewhat recognized it in his heart, and his tone became more solemn:

Brother Mo, look to see if there is something wrong with this formation. I don't know anything about this and can't tell anything.

Master Chen asked someone to wipe away the black ash on the furnace, while Mo Hua lay on the furnace mouth and carefully looked at the molten fire pattern on the furnace wall.

Although he couldn't draw it completely yet, he practiced day and night, and he was already familiar with the painting method of formation patterns. After a while, he pointed to a few places and said to Master Chen:

It is indeed a problem with the formation. These formation patterns are worn out, spiritual power cannot be transmitted, and the formation is ineffective.

Master Chen couldn't help but look at Mo Hua's words in an orderly manner, and then frowned again:

Then I have to ask the formation master to help me repair it. Alas, the market was not very good originally, and I don't know how many more spiritual stones it will cost this time...

Mo Hua asked: Is it expensive to ask a formation master to repair the formation?

That's natural, Master Chen replied: There aren't many formation masters. If the formation requires special repair, we need to give more spirit stones, otherwise others won't be willing to come.

Mo Hua considered it and said, How about I give it a try?

You? Master Chen was shocked, Are you already a formation master?

Mo Hua waved his hands modestly and said, That's not all. I just learned the formation from the master of the sect, and I just happened to learn this formation.

Master Chen looked at the ink painting, which was half a man tall and had a childish look on his face, and said tactfully: Let's forget it. You are a child, so don't tire yourself out.

Mo Hua knew that Master Chen still had concerns, so he turned his eyes and asked, Uncle Chen, the person you are going to invite may not necessarily be a real formation master.

This... Master Chen said: That's right. Some of them are actually just apprentices and are not considered formation masters. But if you want to ask someone, you naturally have to say something nice. Regardless of whether they are formation masters or not, it is always good to call them formation masters. Yes, they sounded happy, and things went smoothly. We don’t know much about the rest, and it’s not easy to ask. We just need to fix the formation.

So do they fix it every time?

Master Chen thought for a while and said: Sometimes it went smoothly and the repair was completed quickly. Sometimes it took a long time to fix it, but it still didn't work. Finally, someone else came in to fix it.

That's it. Most of these people are just apprentices. Even if their formation level is higher than mine, it's not much higher. Mo Hua said confidently.

Of course, the standard of a serious apprentice should be higher than that of Mo Hua, but the level of some apprentices may not be as good as him.

Mo Hua added: They are still cultivating when they come here, and I am also cultivating when I am cultivating. At most, they cannot cultivate well. You just need to invite them again.

This makes sense...it seems to make sense...

Master Chen was somewhat moved, but still hesitant. Seeing this, Mo Hua continued:

Even if you invite an array master, you won't be able to come immediately. It depends on whether others are available. If you delay for one day, the weapon refining shop will lose a day's income. After a long time, it will be unable to make ends meet.

The business of the weapon making shop is okay, but the profit is not high, and Master Chen is not willing to cut corners, so all he earns is hard-earned money. What's more, we have to provide food and drink for these apprentices. Once the shutdown time is long, it will really be difficult to turn around.

Master Chen had a headache, and finally gritted his teeth and said, That's it, little brother, you give it a try.

After speaking, he warned carefully: But just give it a try, don't force it, don't damage the formation...

Mo Hua assured: Don't worry, at best it won't be repairable.

Master Chen felt comforted, but he didn't seem to be comforted.

Mo Hua asked Master Chen to wait, and went home first to get a pen and fire ink, and then took the molten formation diagram with him. When I arrived at the weapon refining shop, I first showed Master Chen the array diagram.

Master Chen saw that the formation on the picture was indeed similar to the one on the refining furnace, so he was somewhat relieved, at least it was not completely unreliable.

This is the first time I have drawn formations on a spiritual weapon. I am a little nervous about ink painting. Fortunately, I have practiced molten formations many times, and my mentality calmed down after I started writing.

Repairing the formation is different from painting the formation. It does not require much spiritual energy. Because the formation itself is complete, you only need to reconnect the damaged parts of the formation with ink.

What is tested is the formation master's vision, carefulness and familiarity with the formation.

Mo Hua was lying beside the stove, concentrating on painting.

In less than half an hour, Mo Hua finished repairing the formation, and then spent a cup of tea checking it again. After confirming that there was no problem, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Master Chen was watching nervously, fearing that Mo Hua would damage the formation. When he saw this, he hurriedly asked: Is this... repaired?

Mo Hua's clothes were dirty and there were a few dust marks on his face. He was not sure and said: It should be fine. Why don't you light a fire and try it?

Master Chen's expression was a little complicated, but he still worked with several apprentices to re-seal the formation, install the refining furnace, and then embed the spiritual stone into the furnace to stimulate the spiritual power to ignite.

But the fire was not lit.

Mo Hua was stunned and touched his chin. His face, which was originally stained with dust, was now even more dirty:

Why is there no fire? The formation should have been repaired.

Master Chen asked: Little brother, are you sure there is nothing wrong with the formation?

Mo Hua pulled out the molten fire formation diagram, compared it carefully, and then nodded: There is no problem with the formation.

Master Chen touched the refining furnace with his hand, felt the temperature, and said to several apprentices: The spiritual power is not enough. Put a few more spiritual stones, then burn a soldering iron and throw them in.

Several disciples did as they were told, and sure enough, the temperature of the refining furnace gradually increased.

After a while, fire popped out.

Master Chen was overjoyed, Okay!

Several disciples were also happy. If the refining furnace could be used, they would have work to do and learn from their master, so they all looked at Mo Hua with admiration.

Mo Hua was also very happy and said: Try refining a spiritual weapon and see if there are any problems.

Master Chen casually threw a knife into it, and after practicing it for a while, he said with a little regret: There is no big problem with using it, but the firepower is a little smaller than before, and it may take longer to refine the weapon.

Mo Hua was a little confused, With the same formation, why is the firepower so small? Will the effectiveness of the formation be reduced after it is repaired?

Master Chen shook his head, I have repaired it several times before, but the firepower has not dropped much.

Why is that?

Mo Hua frowned, wondering if the formation was not drawn well enough.

Master Chen thought for a moment, pointed to the ink in the inkstone and said:

Maybe it's an ink problem? I asked someone to repair it before, and the ink they used was obviously darker than yours. It was bright red and looked like it was burning.

Mo Hua suddenly realized that he had bought the cheapest fire-based ink for convenience and saving money. It was okay to practice the formation on weekdays, but the actual painting effect on the spiritual weapon would definitely be relatively poor.

For the formation to be effective, it requires higher-grade spiritual ink.

Mo Hua silently wrote it down, and then said a little embarrassedly: That must be the problem with the ink. I bought a cheap one, and the spiritual power stimulation effect may not be very good.

Master Chen said: Why are you saying this? Although the firepower is a bit small, it is good if it can be used. After all, I still want to thank you, old man.

Master Chen thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: There is no need to pay for the refining fee for the stove you want. I will help you make the stove for free. Of course, I will not refund the material fee. After all, I am a big group of young men. , you still have to leave something to eat.”

Mo Hua looked at the spacious but simple weapon-refining shop, then at the dark-skinned Master Chen and the weapon-refining disciples who were covered in sweat and with black ash on their faces. He knew that it would be difficult for them to earn some spiritual stones. sidewalk:

Uncle Chen, just give me a 50% discount on the weapon refining fee.

Master Chen shook his head, That won't work. I still have the advantage. Asking others to practice this formation will cost at least one or two hundred spirit stones.

You don't have to give so much.

Master Chen's temper became fierce, Being a monk means integrity. You spit and nail every time. How can you take back what you have said so easily? Since I said I won't take your spirit stone, I definitely can't take it!

This temper is too upright...

Mo Hua had no choice but to change his mind and said with a smile: Well, let's do this. I won't pay you for the refining of the weapon. After the furnace is refining, I will give you some spirit stones. Let it be regarded as your and everyone's hard work.

this……

Master Chen didn't understand it for a while. The weapon refining fee and the hard work fee seemed to be the same, but they felt a little different.

Even if you ask friends for help, sometimes you have to pay for your hard work. Mo Hua added.

Oh well.

Master Chen thinks this is indeed reasonable.

Several disciples also looked at the ink paintings with gratitude.

Their family is not wealthy, so they can earn some money to supplement their family income by working as disciples. If they cannot earn spiritual stones, their originally difficult life will become even more difficult.

And if you can earn spiritual stones, even if you earn one more, your life will be easier.

Then it's settled! It's getting late, I have to go home for dinner!

Mo Hua waved his little hand to say goodbye.

Master Chen told Mo Hua to be careful on the road, and said: If you want to refine weapons in the future, just come to me and I will give you a discount!
