Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 52: Emergencies

   He wanted to say of course, but he couldn't talk about it for a while.

   Xia Fan asked himself, his original intention has not changed, but to this day, some things that are not clear and unclear, are in front of the goal.

   For some reason, an old lady thanked him with joy suddenly appeared in his mind.

"I think it's better for you to think less about this kind of problem." Shangguan Cai said abruptly, "The Privy Council's arrangement naturally makes sense. You may have your ideas, but why should it listen to you? Can you still Let it look at you with straight eyes, can't it?"

   "Sister Shangguan, what are you talking about?" Luo Youer asked in confusion.

"It's nothing, I lived in Gyeonggi before, and I have seen too many people who don't know the heights of the sky. I have an idea, but I don't have the power to realize it. In the end, it only increased my troubles." She shrugged, "In fact, I am the same. Will be assigned to Shenzhou."

   "I don't understand what you mean..." Xia Fan shook his head.

"Actually, you understand, but you just don't want to admit it. In more layman's terms, it means to recognize the reality and avoid competing with the Privy Council." Shangguan Cai walked forward with her hands behind her back. "Our alchemist, listen to it honestly. It’s fine to help ordinary people when you have time. It’s good to make some extra income. Maybe you’ll be tired of it in a few years.”

   "Can he stay for a few more years?" Luo Youer was deeply suspicious, "At that time, I suspected that the master would kick him out on the spot."

   "It's normal to drive away, but since Master Zhang didn't do this, I guess he wanted to give him another chance to see the after-effects?"

   Shangguan Cai turned her head and raised her mouth, "However, no matter what the Privy Council is like, you will not be willing to give up everything you have. Am I right, Xia Gongzi?"

   Being so excited by her, Xia Fan's mood calmed down instead.

   That's right, fantasy is meaningless. He can't change it now doesn't mean it will be the same in the future, besides, there is no conflict between studying alchemy and eliminating evil, he doesn't need to be stuck for a while.

   "What I do has nothing to do with you, thank you for your concern."

   "You're welcome." She didn't mean to evade anything.

   "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little weird, Wei Wushuang offered to take the initiative, "Should we have dinner together today? I'll treat it as the first batch of alchemist squad in Jinxia City.

   "Agree!" Luo Youer immediately echoed.

   "I don't care," Shangguan Cai glanced at Xia Fan, "it's this one."

   "Brother Xia..." Wei Wushuang winked his eyes.

   Xia Fan sighed. Although Shangguan Cai was choked by Shangguan Cai, if it were not for her, she would not have recovered so quickly. Now that he refused, he seemed a bit stingy. In addition to the face of his fellow townsman, it is fine for him to accompany him.

   By the way, I can also pack some delicious food for Li.

   "I know, let's go."

  ……

   In the following week, Xia Fan's life became unexpectedly regular.

   Similar to civil servants clocking in at work, the alchemist has to report to the Privy Council every morning to confirm whether there are new tasks that need to be handled today. The newcomers have to spend a morning to receive training. For example, some surgical techniques and how to distinguish evil and attack its weaknesses.

In particular, the Privy Council has made quite a few improvements in surgical techniques. For example, there are six to eight pockets in the alchemist's suit, which can be divided into different categories to put medicinal materials; there are corresponding regulations for the movement of digging out the materials, and the two-finger and four-finger can be used in single Two or four different types of materials were found under the hand. Compared with the various postures of the candidates during the examination, these quick twitching movements are actually a kind of chivalrous confrontation.

   More extreme, it is to mark the talisman on the arm, so that the alchemist can perform the dual technique without medicinal materials. It's just that this approach is contrary to the concept of "skinning the body and receiving the parents", and once the tattoos are unimproved, there are not many alchemists who choose to do this.

   In addition, Xia Fan discovered that repeatedly casting Alchemy can indeed strengthen the effect of the spell. For example, since performing an earthquake without reservation in Qingshan Town, he found that his magical ability had once again been improved. This is not a vague feeling, but can actually be observed.

   When he used to perform a heavy operation without the help of introductory and talisman paper, he could only feel a slight numbness on his skin, but now, he can pull out a small electric light from his fingertips, accompanied by a tingling.

   This is a little bit different from the common sense he used to know-the controlled variable method does not work here, or the most important prerequisite of the spell: "thinking" is also added to the variable. It's a pity that the energy consumed by the first and triple techniques is basically the same, and the improvement in effect is close to nothing.

   After the morning class is over, the afternoon is free time.

   The most frequent place for their group is the Recording Department, where many books and secret records are stored, but the number of spells is not as many as Xia Fan imagined. For example, in the area of ​​vibration technique, apart from the thunder technique he has mastered, there are only two complete secret records, namely streamer technique and snake shadow technique.

  Master Zhang explained that most of the basic spells circulated in the world, after long-term use and understanding, these spells will be personally branded, and they will have their own characteristics when used. As for what improvements the surgeon has made and what experience they have accumulated, only they know whether they are willing to publish it or not. It is entirely up to the individual, and the Privy Council cannot interfere.

This statement also confirms from the side why the shaking technique is the least among the eight magic arts. It takes tens or hundreds of taels to test new insights on weekdays, and it may not produce results. Normal people probably will. Retreat in the face of difficulties.

  The newly learned vibration technique "Streaming" is well understood. It is almost a weakened version of thunder technique. It is not affected by the terrain. It can be performed normally even in caves and other places isolated from the sky. The effect is an electric arc bursting out of the palm.

   The shaking technique "Snake Shadow" is very rare. The material it needs is actually fresh snake spine. According to the secret record, this technique can improve the body's reaction speed and the acuity of the five senses in a short time. It's a pity that this medicine is really biased, and he couldn't get started even if he wanted to experience it.

  Compared with the high cost of learning Alchemy, another type of books aroused Xia Fan's interest.

   He discovered that a lot of martial arts were collected in the recording department.

   There is the body technique Luo mentioned gently.

   It’s just that these body techniques are not so mysterious that they can fly into the sky by stepping on the back of the left instep and making a leap. Most of them are the coordination of pace and breath to achieve higher efficiency of action.

   In addition to the common body techniques and fist and club kung fu, Xia Fan even found a few books titled "Acupuncture Point", "Secret Biography", and "Divine Art".

   It's just that on the cover of these books, there is a bold red note with the words "Unverified, lack of principle description, and doubtful effects, please practice carefully."

   It seems that the scientific literacy of the Privy Council is quite high.

   In addition, in the recording department, he also found a few books introducing the family-it turns out that no matter the Fang family or the Luo family, they all originated from the heroes who had the merits of Conglong. In order to protect his family's everlasting prosperity, the Holy Admiral delegated the responsibility of recruiting people in the world to these meritorious men, and also reduced the burden on the Privy Council in a disguised form. The prohibition of the spread of magical knowledge made it impossible for aristocratic families to exist independently of the Privy Council. If they want to climb up, they must become alchemists in the system.

   In other words, Luo Youer and Luo Qingming are not related in any way, they just happen to be included in the Luo family in Youzhou. This can be regarded as answering another question in Xia Fan's heart: Since feeling qi is a natural decision and cannot be controlled by humans, how did the aristocratic family accumulate a large number of qi people.

At the same time, the existence of Sanmen is easy to understand. Either someone like him was picked up early and came into contact with the magical world from another way; or just like Wei Wushuang, he has some background in his family and does not want to entrust his son to the family. , Even if you fail to learn, do not want to change your surname.

   He even has reason to suspect that even if the truly powerful children of the rich family do not rely on the noble family, they can still get an alchemy education of the same level as Luo Qing, or they can enter the Privy Council directly without the exam.

   After all, this kind of special recruitment ~www.ltnovel.com~ exists in any era.

After a week, Xia Fan has been greatly supplemented in the common sense of alchemy, basically catching up with the progress of the disciples of the aristocratic family. After all, most of the knowledge of magic arts is monopolized by the Privy Council, the latter's first-mover advantage lies more in Literacy enlightenment and enlightenment time.

   Apart from studying, he also took time to visit several blacksmith shops in Jinxia City two or three times, and split his hole cards for them to build. The price of pure copper-that is, red copper is not high, it is cheaper than wrought iron, and the price of cabbage is magnetized. The material cost is less than a fraction of the cost of lightning.

  The only difficulty is to smelt copper into copper wire. There was no special wire drawing equipment in ancient times, and it could only be polished by hand by a blacksmith. As a result, the efficiency drops a lot. In seven days, he prepared a total of four copper magnet rings, each at an average price of half a tael of silver, of which the vast majority was manual expenses.

  The regular life after joining the Privy Council makes Xia Fan seem to have returned to college time. Hunger and running are away from him. He no longer has to wear clothes while sleeping, and always beware of attacks by wild beasts or other refugees.

   Just when Xia Fan thought this would be the life content for a long time after becoming an alchemist, an urgent news that entered Jinxia City broke the calm.

   When reporting in the morning, Master Zhang brought them to the headquarters.

   A sixth-rank alchemist took over the position of leader.

"I am a judge of the Privy Council, my surname is Zhang, and I am good at Kunshu. You can call me Zhang Shenzheng. Yesterday, I received a report from Gaoshan County, Shenzhou. There was a suspected evil case in the county, which has threatened the safety of the whole county." Looking around the crowd, he slowly said, "Lord Fang ordered me to lead the team to deal with it. This is also a good opportunity to test the results of what you have learned. I will give you half an hour to prepare, and we will start on time!"
