Chapter 52
Chapter 52
It's an invitation, but it's just a random letter. At least in Jing Chen's opinion, this small note is dispensable. It's true after seeing Yu Liuqing's dog crawling.
It said that the entrance examination of the Menwu Academy is coming soon, and the black market has also specially launched auctions on related topics, such as pills for improving cultivation and talismans for improving strength, which are specially prepared for the admitted monks.
Obviously this is another good excuse to make money, Jing Chen thought secretly, I don’t know how much money he made for the black market this time, he didn’t forget that the wild purple heart fruit cost him as much as 16 last time, although Later, it was paid by Ke Shu, but it still hurts to think about it, okay? !
Before going to the auction, Jing Chen cleaned up the things in the storage.
He used up all the medicinal materials, so there are naturally a lot of elixirs that have been refined, some of which are not needed, so he can take this opportunity to sell them and enrich his small treasury by the way, so that he won't lose confidence in what to look for in the auction.
The black market is still full of people, but their faces are generally young. Don't think about it, these should be the same students as them.
Not long after entering the box, the auction started.
There are three kinds of seats for guests. One is the most common seat, which is close to the auction platform and is easy to be exposed. It is an ordinary box, which is reserved for most ordinary members. The third is the VIP room, which has a good view and excellent service. thoughtful.
The three of Jingchen had Yuliuqing and Keshu as backup, so they entered the VIP room. Looking down, through the special window, they could see the situation below at a glance.
The first exhibit is a six-star high-grade armor, made of stone-cracked armor and animal skin. of light.
There were exclamations from the audience, this armor is a good choice for those with tight cash.
Seeing that the atmosphere was heated up, the host offered the reserve price with satisfaction.
Just for the first exhibit, the scene was extremely hot, and the price went up all the way, which made the host laugh from ear to ear.
Jing Chen leaned back on the seat, and lost interest when the talisman array on the armor was activated and displayed.
The array pattern on the talisman is not the more the better, the more important is the precision, the outstanding talisman master can connect several basic rune arrays together, linking each other, and exerting the full or multiplied power of the runes , this is the best work.
As for this piece of armor, even if he can't refine five-star or higher talisman now, but the vision of the master craftsman is still there, naturally there are many shortcomings.
Time flies, the auction has been halfway through, and all the pills that Jing Chen brought for auction have been auctioned off, leaving nothing to be seen.
Just when Jingchen hung his head down and was drowsy, the host's words came over, "The following thing is rather rare. It is a jade slip for making puppets. I don't know how to introduce it... Oh, everyone, please take a minute." Wait a moment."
The host stopped at this point, and looked to the left side of the curtain, as if waiting for something.
The people on the field didn't understand the situation and whispered to each other.
Auctions with such an unclear situation are rare, so what is the host waiting for?
Jingchen straightened his body, and he became interested after hearing the word puppet.
In his storage ring, there is also a puppet from the stomach of Leiyin's claw crab, but he has never figured it out. I don't know if this jade slip can give him any inspiration.
"Da da da." Footsteps sounded, and a figure came out from behind the left curtain.
It was a person made of wood, which could be seen from the texture of its appearance, but its limbs were not controlled by wires, and it walked quite flexibly. If you ignore the appearance, it looks like a human.
The host was a little surprised. After all, he was a person who had seen the world, and his expression quickly returned to normal. He smiled and said, "This is the puppet provided by the master of the jade slip. It is intended to let everyone see the effect. The jade slips will be auctioned together, well, the starting price is [-] runestones, and the price will increase by no less than [-] each time, and the auction starts now."
After the words fell, there was a brief silence on the field. Unlike other sales, no one moved for a while.
"What kind of shit, buy it back and use it as a servant?"
"[-] runestones, how much wood can I buy..."
"Who would buy it? It's not a skill or a elixir. There is wool for it. You're stupid."
Whispering was heard everywhere, and the host was a little embarrassed.
Making puppet figures is quite a curious secret technique. It would be fine if there were explanations about the puppet array, but when the items were brought, no information was provided, and on the other hand, jade slips could not be used to inspect the goods first.
With [-] runestones, no one is willing to take the risk if they don't know what the value of the contents is.
The host sighed, this was probably the first exhibit that failed to be auctioned in the evening.
In the box, Jingchen endured his excitement, and added a thousand runestones at the last moment.
The extra puppet also had crystals in it, which was almost the same as the one in his storage ring. No matter what was in the jade slip, this intact puppet for his research was worth it!
But he has to be calm, and he doesn't want to make extra troubles, so that it can't be seen that he wants this.
"Boom." The auction hammer fell, the host heaved a sigh of relief, and so did Jing Chen.
Jing Chen didn't pay much attention to the next auction. After the waiter brought the jade slips, he couldn't wait to penetrate his spiritual sense.
After a while, Jingchen showed a smile, these fifty-one thousand runestones are so worth it!
……
When Jingchen got up the next day, he was in a trance. He studied the wooden puppets all night, and he gained a lot, but he suffered even more.
It turned out that his puppet formation can only be regarded as a simple puppet possession formation.Hence the name Siyi is to stick the spiritual consciousness to a certain object through the array to achieve the control effect, and the method is single.
Regardless of whether it is a wooden puppet, or the human skin puppet he got in the belly of Lei Yin's claw crab last time, the nameless driving formation in each bone and the countless control lines connected to the joints make Jing Chen was astonished as a celestial being, and he was so impressed that he threw himself to the ground.
Ling Yi flicked Jing Chen's forehead to help him regain his senses, half-jokingly and helplessly said, "If I had known that you used all your energy for other things, I shouldn't have let you go. Forget it, tonight... "
Jing Chen covered his forehead and shuddered when he heard the words.Although you only spoke halfway...Where did you touch your claws?Is the little brother most vulnerable to teasing you in the morning? !
After tidying up everything, we arrived at Menwu Academy, it was almost noon.
At first glance, there was a sea of people, if it weren't for the signboard with "Men Wu Academy" hanging high enough, I'm afraid it would also be drowned in the sea of people with the welcoming staff in front of the academy.
"It's too exaggerated." Jing Chen opened his mouth and turned to Huo Zhiyou, "How many people did you say to recruit last time?"
"Wufu College has 3000 people, and the other three colleges have [-] people each."
Jing Chen stepped forward and looked forward, the big square in front of the Men Wu Academy was overcrowded, at least tens of thousands of people.
But this is only the first day. After the three days are over, the number of applicants is uncertain.
After finally squeezing through the crowd, I came to the queue for freshman registration.
Compared with other teams that needed to be tested, this team had significantly fewer people. Ling Yi and Huo Zhiyou showed the certificate issued by Heiyun College, and the girl who took the record looked up and glanced over casually, and was momentarily stunned.
"You, please wait a moment." The girl's eyes fell on Ling Yi, her face flushed slightly, "Someone will come and take you to the test."
"Excuse me, how long will it take?" Ling Yi's lips curled up slightly, and he said with a smile, "My partner is still waiting to take the test at the Array Academy."
"No, no need, too, too long." It is undeniable that Ling Yi's smile is amazingly lethal, the girl blushes, and directly ignores the word "partner" in the other party's words, "The registration form is a common Wufu Academy and array The Fu Academy tests are all conducted in the back mountain. If you don’t mind, I can have someone take you and your companions in together.”
Jing Chen, "..." What about the pause?Didn't you stutter just now? !
Ling Yi took the registration form and smiled slightly, "Thank you."
"Senior Sister? What's wrong with you, Senior Sister?!" A male student had just turned around when he saw the girl who was receiving the freshmen with him had already passed out.
At this time, the three of Jingchen were already on their way to the back mountain.
"Desperate!" Jing Chen stared at Ling Yi, gritted his teeth and said, "You betray your lust, you beast!"
Ling Yi raised his eyebrows, "Who do you think I am for?"
Huo Zhiyou walked quickly a few steps silently, caught up with the leader, and avoided the "battlefield".
"Are you still reasonable?" Jing Chen tugged at his sleeves, "Too disobedient to 'husband', even winking at people in front of me, are you forcing me to 'domestic violence'?!"
Huo Zhiyou staggered, chatted with the senior who led the team, and led them away.
Ling Yi caught Jing Chen's fist, took him into his arms, and said with a smile, "If you don't like it, I will only smile at you from now on."
Jing Chen was stunned. In fact, he just wanted to express his protest of "why you can laugh at soft girls but I can't look at soft girls", so as to defend his legitimate rights to appreciate soft girls when encountering incidents like Zhou Xiao in the future.
But now, what kind of divine development is this?
Ling Yi's smile is like the warm sun in March, so soft that people are willing to take out their heart and liver, and Jing Chen is at a loss for words before he can speak.
Huh, don't bring such a beauty trick.
Although the tests of Wufu Academy and Zhenfu Academy are both in the back mountain, one is on the south side and the other is on the north side. Therefore, the three of them had to separate when they reached the intersection.
There were other people on the road who also came to test. They were all about the same age as Jing Chen, and most of them were around three or four stars.
Of course, this is only the Zhenfu Academy. Jing Chen hasn't seen other academies, so he naturally doesn't know.
"Ten rune stone test fee." The man in school uniform sat at the table, took Jing Chen's registration form and looked up, frowning slightly, "Only one star?"
It is true that the depth of the formation cannot be judged from the cultivation base of the talisman, but according to the usual practice, the difference between the two will not be more than two stars. The best cultivation is at Samsung.
This strength is simply not enough for the talented Men Wu Academy.
"Go in." The man didn't say anything, he wrote down Jing Chen's name and waved his hand.
Jing Chen touched his nose, well, he was disgusted.
There were many people waiting inside. Dozens of small wooden houses were built on the open space. The back of the wooden houses was covered with a long black cloth, which led directly to the small house on the other side, so that people could not see clearly what was going on inside.
I saw someone entering from this wooden house, coming out from the opposite wooden house, and someone was recording at the exit.
