Chapter 12 Enduring Loneliness

Chapter 12 Enduring Loneliness

After finishing an order of business, Fang Chang did not stay in the store longer. After explaining a few words to Zhu Gui, he returned to the studio in the backyard.

"I've already gotten acquainted with it, now it's just a matter of time and effort."

Fang Chang did not waste the two days in vain.

At this time, he could already tie up a paper figure. Although he was not as smooth and skillful as Fang's father, he was making progress every day.

What was placed in front of him now was a tied paper figure.

He put his hand on the paper man's head and spit out a little bit of mana from his body.

Not long after.

The golden lines on the paper man's chest lit up, which was an unexpected success.

Fang Chang's lips curled up: "I am indeed a genius."

However, feeling the empty mana in his body, Fang Chang's expression fell again.

According to his current level of mana recovery, even if he doesn't rest, he can only make five puppets every day.

The success rate is only two to three percent.

In other words, you make an average of one puppet every day and gain a little experience.

If you are lucky, you can get two points of experience.

Well, if you keep practicing hard, you can still gain a little experience every day.

When the aura factor increases later, this experience will increase depending on the situation.

According to the levels in "Immortals and Demons", levels one to ten are ordinary people, and level 11 begins to enter the realm of practice, which is called the realm of refining qi.

Among people who practice martial arts like Bad Wolf, he is the so-called top master.

But the Qi Refining Realm cannot increase life span.

Only when you advance to the Foundation Building Realm after the Qi Refining Realm, that is, starting from the twenty-first level, can you have the ability to extend your life.

"Sure enough, practicing honestly will lead to death."

Fang Chang counted with his fingers.

Based on his current lifespan, if everything remains as it is, he will only gain about 12,000 experience points even if he practices until death.

It's more than enough to enter the Qi Refining Realm, but it's still a thousand miles away from the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Not to mention that in order to break through the foundation-building realm in the Qi-refining realm, you generally need the assistance of the foundation-building pill. According to the words in the game, it is proof of job transfer.

Not only is it necessary to break through the foundation building realm, but also the following golden elixir realm, Nascent Soul realm, etc. will need auxiliary items.

Of course, cultivation genius is another matter.

But looking at his sixty-six bones, Fang Chang fell into silence.

He thought that if the evil wolf was eliminated, everyone else's mouths were silenced, and no one would bother him, everything would be fine.

But when I think about the future, I can only see thorns along the way.

Fortunately, Fang Chang was mentally prepared for this.

He plans to work hard for two years first, and he will almost be able to enter the threshold of the Qi Refining Realm. By then, he should have the initial ability to protect himself and the confidence to contact the real world of cultivation.

When the time comes, the sky will be high enough for birds to fly, and the sea wide enough for fish to leap.

He once did not have the confidence to face the dangers of the world of cultivation, but the special puppet master gave him enough confidence.

If anyone dares to treat him as an ordinary puppet master, then he will understand what it means to be a puppet master who can beat the Wuzong.

but now……

"You have to endure loneliness."

Fang Chang said to himself in his heart.

then.

He cleared away his distracting thoughts, kept moving his hands, and continued to make his puppet model.

Three days later.

Fang Chang rubbed his wrist and stopped working.

I saw that the materials that had been piled up in the studio were now transformed into a dozen paper figures that were beginning to take shape.

Three of them are different from the other paper figures and seem to have a metallic texture.

It was the Jinxing puppet that Fang Chang was most familiar with at this time.

"Master, it's time to eat."

An old man's voice came from outside the studio.

"Here we come." Fang Chang stood up.



"Yes, Lao Zhangtou, you are worthy of being the former chef of Xinghua Restaurant. Your sword never grows old."

Fang Chang picked up a piece of plump and juicy braised pork, and it melted in his mouth. He couldn't help but feel a full sense of happiness, and the fatigue from the past few days of work was swept away.

Standing in front of Fang Chang was an energetic little old man with gray hair wearing an apron. When Fang Chang praised him, he smiled somewhat complacently.

“Master, this is not an old man’s boast, but with today’s meat, my skill is only 80% of what I usually do.

Next time I will go to the vegetable market to pick out a good piece of meat for you, and keep it so delicious that my boss will even swallow it on his tongue."

"Then I'll wait."

Fang Chang heard this and said with a smile: "Zhu Gui is afraid that you, the old man, will be tired from shopping for groceries. Since Mr. Zhangtou, you volunteered.

Then I’ll leave the grocery shopping to you from now on, and just ask Zhu Gui to pay the bill afterwards.”

Lao Zhangtou was the chef recruited by Zhu Gui.

He used to be the head chef of Xinghua Restaurant, but he retired because of his age.

But who would have thought that his son would not live up to his expectations, marry a prodigal wife, and lose all the family fortune he earned when he was young.

As a result, he had to find work while he was enjoying his old age.

Although he was good at cooking, he still had to cope with his old age. He really couldn't adapt to the high-intensity work in a restaurant, so he could only set up a stall on the street and sell some snacks to make ends meet.

I don't know where Zhu Gui heard the details about Lao Zhangtou, so he invited him over for three taels of silver per month and was responsible for three meals a day.

When Lao Zhangtou heard that Fang Chang had given him the task of buying groceries, he quickly refused:

"Master, I just said casually, let Xiao Zhu do the grocery shopping."

Purchasing has always been a busy job.

He is also a cook, so he has more opportunities to make profit from it.

Fang Chang smiled and said: "That's it. Zhu Gui has to manage the store and study and practice martial arts. Lao Zhangtou, you can help him share the burden."

Lao Zhangtou refused, but when he heard that Fang Chang was still willing to let him come to buy groceries, he was happy.

"Then the old man would be disrespectful."

Although there will be more work in the future, Fang Chang has high requirements for ingredients and a sufficient budget. He does not need to be greedy to earn extra money.

An extra ten cents a day will add up to three hundred cents a month. If you save some money, it will be enough to support the family.

"The soup is still simmering in the kitchen. I'll bring it to my employer."

Lao Zhangtou left with brisk steps.

Fang Chang didn't care that Lao Zhangtou benefited from it. Anyway, the money was given to him and he just had to be responsible for the quality of his three meals a day.

As for the extra, it can be regarded as Lao Zhangtou's ability.

He can buy ingredients that usually cost one hundred cents for ninety cents. Even if he gets five cents from it, what does it matter.

Of course, if Lao Zhangtou dared to deduct his food expenses, he would have to vomit out as much as he ate.

Although he respects the elderly, Zhu Gui does not.

At this moment, Zhu Gui came in a hurry.

Since arriving at Fangchangdian, Zhu Gui's daily life has been particularly fulfilling.

Working in the store, reading and writing, and practicing martial arts hard, there is almost no time for rest.

But only now does Zhu Gui feel that he is truly alive.

He didn't want to repeat the days he spent wandering around the streets in a hazy way.

"Boss, I have already checked everything you asked me to check."

Fang Chang put down his bowl and chopsticks and stretched out his hand for Zhu Gui to sit down.

"You haven't eaten yet, come and try Lao Zhangtou's cooking."

Zhu Gui shook his head and said: "Boss, Lao Zhangtou and I can just deal with each other in the kitchen. There is no reason to eat at the same table with the master."

But he was still quite moved.

Fang Chang was willing to let him eat at the same table, which proved that he did not look down on him.

"Okay, just say it."

Fang Chang is just polite and polite.
