In a warehouse in a courtyard behind a street store, Zhou Tai was lying on the wooden bed at the door of the warehouse, playing with a three-inch jade stone in his hand.
The reason why he is willing to spend a high price of one or two silver to buy jade is because this jade can be dotted. Zhou Tai discovered that jade with good texture can be dotted, but jade with too bad texture and too many impurities cannot be dotted. The jade in his hand is
The cheapest jade that can be added is the cheapest, and no points can be added to the cheaper jade.
He didn't know how long he waited, but it was already dark in the warehouse. According to experience, no one would come to the warehouse again. Zhou Tai locked the door of the warehouse from the inside because it was usually locked like this, even if someone came suddenly.
You won't feel anything is wrong.
Add some more!
Zhou Tai, who had been waiting for too long, immediately added a little more to the jade in his hand. At first, he only added a little.
There was no fire or candle in the warehouse, and it was not allowed. However, it was quite dark inside, so it was difficult to see what changes had taken place in the jade.
However, it is impossible to find a place with light at night. Such a secret thing must not be discovered by others.
Some people may think, why not find opportunities to add more points during the day? There are indeed opportunities during the day, but it is not safe. In this populous South China City, for Zhou Tai, the truly safe and undisturbed place is at night.
, I live in this warehouse.
In other places, even if there is no one around when you look, you may just lower your head for convenience, but it is very likely that someone will pass by you the next moment, or you may see someone walking by from a high place not far away.
Feeling the darkness, Zhou Tai gave up the idea of going out. He was anxious! Go to bed first.
When lying down, Zhou Tai habitually felt the presence of spiritual energy before going to bed. It didn't matter if he didn't feel it. Once he felt it, he discovered the problem.
The spiritual energy around the body is still there and disappearing, heading in the direction of the jade stone that just added a few strengthening points.
Is this a spiritual stone? Because there is no spiritual energy in the spiritual stone, so it starts to absorb spiritual energy? The absorption is so slow. If you don't feel sensitive, you won't be able to notice that it is absorbing spiritual energy. Is this a low-grade spiritual stone?
Soon, Zhou Tai thought that according to what Mr. Sun said, in a low-spirited land, it would take decades for a low-grade spiritual stone without spiritual energy to recover. If he just waited until this spiritual stone was available, it would take dozens of years.
years later.
This is mixed news for Zhou Tai. The good news is that strengthening points can turn jade into spiritual stones. The bad news is that spiritual stones do not contain spiritual energy.
It's right to think about it, spiritual energy cannot be generated out of thin air. If the jade stone with strengthening points is turned into a spiritual stone, the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone will be full. Then after using up the spiritual energy, collect the strengthening points, strengthen the strengthening points, and then it will be full again!
This saucy operation is so outrageous.
It would take decades for this low-grade spiritual stone to recover. Time makes people grow old, and time waits for no one. There was no way Zhou Tai could wait that long.
Zhou Tai, who had some ideas in his mind, casually took back this strengthening point and started to sleep.
When it got dark, things could be seen clearly in the warehouse, and Zhou Tai also opened his eyes.
First, select a jade, add some strengthening points, and then observe the jade in your hand that has been added with some strengthening points. Compare it with the other two pieces. The result is that the jade as a whole becomes somewhat transparent and milky white.
Then after adding a few strengthening points to the second piece, the same changes occurred as the first piece of jade. Another ten strengthening points were added. As a result, the inside and surroundings of the jade became more transparent.
Then the third piece begins to strengthen the points, and ends when the third piece is added to 100 points. The entire jade becomes crystal clear, almost completely transparent, just like glass.
The weight and shape of the three pieces of jade with strengthened points have hardly changed in the hand, and there is no special feeling.
But when Zhou Tai entered the state where he sensed the presence of spiritual energy, he could clearly feel that the three jade stones were slowly absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy at different speeds. Among them, the jade stone that had been strengthened three times absorbed the fastest.
It was dawn, and it was very close to the time to start work. It was inconvenient to carry the jade with strengthening points on the body, and it was not very safe to put it in the warehouse. Therefore, Zhou Tai simply decided to take back the strengthening points, even if someone discovered it.
Couldn't find anything.
This time, when I took it back, I found that one of the three pieces of jade had changed significantly. It was the piece that had been strengthened three times. Compared with the other two pieces, it was obvious that the quality had become much better.
Zhou Tai soon thought that the spiritual energy could not appear out of thin air, nor could it disappear out of thin air. It was possible that the strengthening points were withdrawn and the spiritual energy was still inside.
In an instant, Zhou Tai thought of a sexy operation.
One high-grade spiritual stone is equal to twenty-one middle-grade spiritual stones, and one medium-grade spiritual stone is equal to fifteen low-grade spiritual stones. Then one high-grade spiritual stone is equal to 315 low-grade spiritual stones.
Under the same spiritual energy conditions, the recovery speed of high-grade spiritual stones is ten times that of low-grade spiritual stones. In other words, at the same time and in the same spiritual energy environment, the speed of absorbing spiritual energy by high-grade spiritual stones is 3150 times that of low-grade spiritual stones. One day for high-grade spiritual stones is equal to
More than eight years for a low-grade spiritual stone.
After a series of calculations in his mind, Zhou Tai got the answer.
If you first use strengthening points to strengthen the jade three times, what will happen if you withdraw the two strengthening points a few days later? Will you be left with a low-grade spiritual stone full of spiritual energy?
After having this idea, Zhou Tai took the time to go outside the city and found a place to bury the three jade stones. One of the jade stones was left unchanged without any changes. The other two jade stones were strengthened to level three with strengthening points and placed separately.
different places.
Why is it buried outside the city and there are fluctuations in the spiritual energy absorbed? I don't know much about this world. What if it brings danger to myself, so I'd better throw it away.
As for burying it, firstly, it is not easy to be discovered, and secondly, it is made old. Even if the newly cut jade has been slightly changed under the aura, it is safe to make it older.
Bury them separately, because the spiritual energy in low-spirited places is thin. Putting them together will only affect the efficiency of absorbing spiritual energy. Moreover, if something happens to one piece, there will still be another piece.
Although Zhou Tai is impatient to cultivate immortality in his heart, he still seeks stability in everything. Anyway, he has not learned all the characters yet, so he is not in a hurry. If the jade he strengthened is a spiritual stone, and the strengthening level corresponds to the upper, middle and lower grades of the spiritual stone, then
When I exchange my spirit stones with Mr. Sun for exercises, no matter whether I succeed or not, I have no chance to learn calligraphy again.
So after Zhou Tai returned to the city, everything went as usual. He went to work as usual. When he had time, he went to learn calligraphy from Mr. Sun, and paid Shu Xiu another one or two taels of silver. He even drank with him twice more.
, asked some questions about the world of immortality.
Although everything seemed normal on the surface, Zhou Tai was thinking about some problems all the time. He didn't want anything to happen to him when he was about to become an immortal.
For example, he thought that the jade should not be buried for too long. If it absorbs too much spiritual energy and strengthens it from three times to one, either the excess spiritual energy will escape or the jade will burst due to insufficient strength.
And the facts also proved his suspicion. When he took out the first buried strengthened jade and recovered all the strengthening points, the jade directly broke into countless small pieces.
When the second strengthened jade stone was retracted, one strengthened point was left behind. Zhou Tai found that in addition to the jade returning to the state of a few strengthened points, something like a mist-like structure appeared inside the jade. This
It should be a low-grade spiritual stone that is about to be fully restored?
Very good. An empty low-grade spiritual stone would be suspected of being used up just now. There is no way to explain why the nearly full spiritual stone has existed in this low-spirited land for decades, but I am not as big or perfect as it.
As for the third piece of jade that was buried, Zhou Tai did not move it. It was a hidden danger when he carried it with him, so he just left it where it was.
Returning to the city with this special piece of jade, Zhou Tai did not act immediately. Instead, he continued as usual and continued to age the jade in various ways. Until one day, when he felt that it was almost done, he bought a live baby.
wild boar.
Everything is ready now. Whether the big roc can rise with the wind in one day depends on whether the east wind can be relied on and whether it can give it its strength.
