Only in this mountain, the depths of the clouds are unknown
Repeating over and over again the two words the mysterious old man left when he left last time, Ruoshui almost turned Baiyun Cave upside down, but he couldn't even see the old man's white hair.
"Isn't this old guy messing with me?" Ruoshui suppressed his anger and thought bitterly in his heart: "I've gone around three times now, and there are monsters wandering around here every once in a while. It looks like there's someone there.
How you live, you damn old man, don’t touch me, don’t make me go crazy, come out quickly, come out quickly..."
The area of Baiyun Cave is indeed not small, with seven floors in total, an area of more than 10,000 square meters, and countless maze-like paths. It is no wonder that Ruoshui spent n hours and searched up and down three times.
Finally I couldn't help but get angry
"Don't secretly scold me in your heart for lying to you. It's not that I don't come out, it's just that you arrived too early, and your eyes can't see that I've been sitting here all the time, and I'm still meditating.
"I've been used to it for so many years, so it's not convenient for me to greet you."
Just when Ruoshui passed by a stone wall on the first floor of Baiyun Cave for the fourth time, an old voice suddenly sounded like a ghost, and said something that almost made Ruoshui vomit blood and return to his hometown.
"Damn it, the NPC would actually think that I came early, what's the law of God! And you, an old guy, are hiding in the rocks like a ghost, how could I possibly see it!" Ruoshui thought about it and asked: "So you
Always there, old man, where are you hiding?"
"It's just a little trick to avoid being disturbed. Besides, why would I avoid you?" I don't know how this old man knew what Ruoshui was thinking. Anyway, with the words, the stone wall suddenly turned into a stone wall.
Rolling up the scroll, the old man Shi Shiran, whom Ruoshui had met twice, jumped down from the stone on the scroll. He stretched out his hand, rolled up the painting and put it in his arms. He looked at Ruoshui with a smile on his face, which was full of gray.
I don’t know why, but the old man who looked like an elder when we last met started talking about me this time, and his tone and style of speaking also changed quite a bit. Maybe it’s because there’s no one around. Could it be that this
The old guy is still a sullen type and only shows his true nature when there are few people around?
Ruoshui stared at the old man as if nothing had happened, his eyes almost bursting with fire, but he dusted his robe sleeves indifferently and asked: "Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"
"I'll endure it!" Considering that the task was still in someone else's hands, and that this old guy was obviously an unfathomably powerful character, Ruoshui had no choice but to warn himself over and over in his heart to be patient. It was strange to say that Ruoshui had courted him more than once.
This old man has had many identifications on his head, but his identity has never been successfully identified. He can't even tell his rank and name. This is simply ridiculous, if not for the benefit that can be obtained from him.
, Ruoshui almost went to GM to complain about this buggy guy.
However, it can also be seen from this that this old man is really a mysterious figure, so after Ruoshui stabilized his emotions, he respectfully took out the two pieces of ancient wood and a large handful of pine needles that he had obtained before, and handed them to
The old guy said: "Old man, I have found what you asked for last time. Please take a look."
It is said that children's faces change quickly, but this old man's face does not change slowly. As soon as he saw what Ruoshui took out, the old guy's smile immediately appeared on his face, "Good stuff, really good stuff, there are actually
Ancient pine wood, this is a good thing that is stronger than red pine wood. Well, there are so many pine resin needles, which are also very old and good things. I can't tell. So you know a little bit about making ink? How about that?
I will remember to bring back some pine needles.”
"I just saw a little introduction in the book, I'm overly praised," Ruoshui replied hypocritically, but he was cursing in his heart: "Oh, he is indeed a difficult master to serve. Fortunately, I was prepared. Why don't I finish you off this time?
"
"Okay, okay, okay!" The old man happily said three good words in a row, holding a pile of wood and rosin and looking at it non-stop. Finally, he was relatively single, so he took the initiative without waiting for Ruoshui to find a chance to mention the reward.
He took out a small picture scroll from his arms and threw it to Ruoshui without raising his head.
Character Vertical Scroll: Strange object, drawn by fairy magic. Character information can be filled in at will. The holder can change the image according to the information. It consumes a certain amount of mana per second. It can be used repeatedly. Those who are not higher than twenty levels of the user cannot see through it.
Painting, painted skin? Isn't this the kind of painting in painted skin that can be changed? Is this old thing Pu Songling's meal?
The old man raised his eyes and saw Ruoshui touching the scroll with an expression of disbelief on his face. He smiled slightly and said: "Little guy, the world is so big and the Taoism is so vast. How can you, a brat who has just glimpsed the world, do everything you can?"
You know?" This sentence brought back his previous behavior, but he had seen his old and disrespectful appearance before, and now Ruoshui simply decided to turn a blind eye to his image as an old man.
However, what this old guy said seems to be hiding something...
"Old senior, of course I know that I am young and have little knowledge. I wonder if the old man would be willing to give me some advice?" Although he has been unhappy with this old guy for a long time, at this critical moment, Ruoshui can still keep his posture very low.
, especially when it is possible to take advantage of others
"Little guy, while you are scolding me in your heart, you also want to get something good from me. You are really good at making your wishful thinking. Do you think I really don't know?" The old guy laughed and cursed, and turned Ruoshui's
Requested to block back
"This..." Ruoshui also knows that it is impossible for an NPC to see through the player's true thoughts, but this does not prevent them from making judgments based on the knowledge and intelligent modules given by the system. Moreover, Ruoshui was indeed not very respectful just now, and this does not matter.
There is nothing to say, but the vertical axis of this character is indeed too...
He's a bastard who doesn't take advantage when he has it. Seeing this awesome man in front of him, he might have some treasure in his arms. If he doesn't leave some benefits and let him run away, Ruoshui will regret it and slap his thigh to pieces in the future.
I can only blame myself, I can't blame others. So I think it's time to be shameless.
"Old man, I have nothing to do with you. Please forgive me for my young age and ignorance. The old man is immortal and profound. He must be a senior who has arrived early. Besides, I have mentioned him a few times. It shows that I have a lot of opportunities with you. I still look forward to my senior.
For the sake of being of the same monastic lineage, it’s better to promote those who are less advanced.”
No matter what you think in your heart, I will make you a bowl of soup and drink it down. There will never be anything wrong.
After listening to Ruoshui's words, the old man smiled slightly, and he was very satisfied with it. Although he didn't show it on the surface, his words were already loose, "That's natural. I have been cultivating Taoism for a long time, how can a young kid like you do it?"
Imaginary? It’s just that you, this kid, have a real destiny with me. First, you helped me solve the chess game, and then helped me find a lot of ancient wood rosin to make ink. There is no credit but hard work. If there is no reward, let those peers know about it.
, why don’t you laugh at me for being so petty and so petty that I can’t even spare the time to mention something about my descendants?”
Ruoshui was overjoyed after hearing this and said: "Thank you, senior! More seniors!"
The old man looked at Ruoshui and suddenly said: "This thousand-year-old pine wood is really an excellent product used to make ink in the world. It's a pity, it's a pity!"
What kind of smart character is Ruoshui? Of course he would take over the conversation at this time and say: "Why is it such a pity, old man?"
"It's a pity for me, old man. Although I have these two good materials and these many ancient pine resin pine needles, I can't make good ink. It's really a pity."
"Old senior, are you still lacking any materials? No problem, as long as you tell me, this matter will be taken care of by me!" Finding things is a player's strong point, and it is countless times more convenient than NPCs. Just imagine, so many players are playing in the game
Running around, are there any weird things that are not found in the auction house? The only difference is that they are high and low.
The old man stroked his beard, shook his head and said: "You have already sent the ancient wood rosin needed to make ink. I have all the medicinal materials and so on. But when making ink, I pay great attention to the source of fire. You must know that this ancient wood is burned into ink."
It is quite difficult to use pine charcoal. It can only be done by a non-famous expert with a very good fire head. My old man is naturally capable of making a good fire. It is not difficult to burn good pine charcoal.
I haven’t mastered the skills I can use yet.”
"What do I mean? It turns out it's a young fire-burning girl, no, a handsome fire-burning guy! This is simple, I can do it!" Ruoshui patted his chest and said: "I'm not bragging, I'm a closed disciple of the Samadhi Palace.
When it comes to the skill of setting fires in the world, I am afraid that no one can surpass the disciples of my Samadhi Palace."
Just kidding, this old man is very capable and has poisonous eyes. He doesn't know that Ruoshui is a member of the Samadhi Palace? So, what he just said was intentional. Ruoshui himself knew it well and knew it.
The old man wanted to use himself as a coolie, but he had to bow his head when he was under the eaves. Ruoshui still understood this simple truth, so he accepted the task of setting fire to his fate.
"I have heard of Mr. Lihuo God for a long time. If it is true, that would be great!" The old man expressed his surprise and happiness very hypocritically, and then said to Ruoshui directly: "Then you
Set a fire and let me, the old man, come and see if it’s suitable.”
Just let it go, if the water transports the fire clouds to dance, and gathers a large fire cloud together, using mana as the source, a large flame is born out of thin air
The skill of making fire with this hand is extraordinary. Not to mention ordinary players, ordinary NPCs can only sigh with admiration, but the old man is still very dissatisfied. "It looks good to light fire with mana, but it shows that the mana is not enough
It’s vulgar, but this firepower, tsk tsk, it’s much worse, it’s still an ordinary fire power.”
Ordinary fire power? What does Xiami mean? The studious and good comrade Ruoshui naturally asked, but the old man shook his head and refused to say anything. He just told Ruoshui: "Don't worry about this. If you add more strength, the fire will be stronger."
Some, otherwise the temperature is not enough and the pine charcoal will not be burned.”
I'll go! This fire is enough to burn three or four people, how come it can't burn out a piece of pine charcoal? However, Ruoshui dared to be angry and dared not speak out, so he had to work hard again, fully activating the Yuyang Heart Technique, and blessing it to the flames.
Above, the firepower suddenly became much stronger
The old man looked approving, but he was still not satisfied, "The fire is a bit fierce, but how can I control the distance from such a big fire? If it is not good, the pine charcoal will be burned out in one go.
"
A picky guy, Ruoshui gathered the fire cloud again and controlled the power within a fairly small range. Then the old man said that the flame was too unstable, swinging around, strong and weak, and asked Ruoshui to use the fire as much as possible.
controlled within a stable range
These things are simple to say, but when mixed together, it is quite difficult to do. You need to increase the firepower, control the range, and pay attention to stability. Even Ruoshui has already practiced the fire attribute spell to a very high level.
At this point, the mental skills are all at a very advanced level. I was sweating profusely even when I concentrated on them. It took me a long time to finally achieve the requirements that the old man said.
But in this way, the small flame quietly changed color, from pure red to bright red, then from bright red to orange, and finally stopped at the realm of orange and slightly blue.
"Yes, the little guy still has some future." The old man nodded with satisfaction and said: "You can actually get a glimpse of the door after doing it for the first time. It seems that the foundation is quite solid. Mr. Lihuo's disciple, set fire to it.
He does have some talent.”
By this time, Ruoshui had already understood that the old man was teaching his spell in a different way. Although it only changed the color of the flame, Ruoshui had already understood that the power of this flame was at least three times higher than the original red flame.
Four times as much. If the original fire was a match fire, the current fire can be said to be a blazing furnace fire.
Moreover, after this incident, Ruoshui understood a new development path. It turns out that this spell does not only rely on improving the skill level to increase its power, but also needs to think about the spell itself to make it more powerful. This old man's guidance is proof.
Although Ruoshui can't use it at will now, in time, when Ruoshui has mastered the method of gathering true fire and increasing the power, and can use it instantly, the power generated when he uses fire-attribute spells will inevitably increase three to four times out of thin air.
, it is not inferior to having more than ten levels of skills in Huoyunwu and Yuyang Xinfa.
