Holding a piece of jade less than the size of a palm, Zhou Tai walked back to the courtyard where he rented. When he first came to this city of jade, he stayed in an inn, which was convenient for getting some information and also helped to quickly understand the place.
After I learned a lot about it, I found a house with a courtyard to rent for two months.
There is a lot of preparation work to do, and it is very inconvenient to go in and out of the inn.
Take the jade I just brought back, for three days in a row. Although this is a stone gambling paradise, it is normal to bring jade back, but there are many people in the inn, people coming and going, many people will see it, and it is inevitable that Xiaoxiao people will show up.
Different thoughts.
According to Zhou Tai's idea, since the requirement to enter the stone gambling place is that you must gamble once, you can just buy a smaller rough stone. There is no need to untie it. You can do it when you use it, and it will save other people's attention. Let's go.
When the time comes, just take the original stone back.
But, no.
It is required that the rough stone of the gambling stone must be unlocked inside.
It was the first time he was trying to solve stones. When he walked to the place dedicated to solving stones, Zhou Tai was stunned for a moment. He just forgot about the queue. The place where the stones were solved was like a hall, with the stones in the middle and people all around.
Seeing that every time someone cut the rough stone in front, there were people behind him who placed bets before. Zhou Tai understood that stone betting is both a buyer's bet and a peripheral one.
Because the larger the rough stone, the more expensive it is. When it was Zhou Tai's turn, he slapped the big rough stone upwards, and some of the people around him booed.
If it weren't for the requirement to come here before he could get in, Zhou Tai wouldn't even want to buy something as big as a palm. In his mature heart, he can turn a blind eye to such boos. Maybe if he has a bad mentality, he will pick bigger rough stones next time.
purchase.
I hate the feeling of being watched by a bunch of people, which is inconsistent with my preference for a low-key lifestyle, but in order to have a good time here, I can only suppress this disgust.
When I returned to my rented yard, I seemed to feel relaxed. After entering the house, I threw the jade I cut today to the bedside and mixed it with the two pieces of jade from before.
Lying in bed, start thinking about something. If you want to do something, the more careful and rigorous you have to do, the more preparation work you have to do.
This step is just a simple step, and there are many troubles and tedious considerations behind it. Thinking about it gives Zhou Tai a headache. Many things can be done in just a few simple steps in imagination, but in reality, there are many things to do in each step.
question.
For example, what Zhou Tai wants to do is only three steps in his imagination.
Step one: Get a lot of jade.
Step 2: Use strengthening points to turn the jade stone into a spiritual stone.
The third step: Lie on the pile of spiritual stones to practice, and directly practice the ninth level of Qi.
But things are not that simple. The total number of free strengthening points now is only over 1,000, close to 1,100.
Calculated based on one strengthening point and one spiritual stone. There are only 1,000 spiritual stones in total, plus the more than 3,000 strengthening points that can be retrieved from the body, the total is more than 4,000, but the calculation is not like this.
Each piece of jade must be strengthened three times to restore spiritual energy as quickly as possible. In other words, one spiritual stone requires 111 strengthening points. Zhou Tai can only plant about forty spiritual stones at most at one time.
Moreover, the cultivation speed of a body with full strengthening points and a body without strengthening points is different. When practicing, you must practice with full strengthening points. I don’t know what the impact of ordinary training will be, but it still needs to be enabled to cheat.
During practice, the forty or so strengthening points that maintain the existence of spiritual stones are removed, and the idle strengthening points are over a thousand. These can be used to plant nine spiritual stones.
Therefore, we need jade that can produce at least 49 spirit stones. If these are just the spirit stones, which are not too many, Zhou Tai can buy them, but he doesn't really want to do this.
According to pure cultivation, the fastest time to practice one level of Qi is five years. Assuming that one ray of spiritual power can be cultivated in five days, then a total of 365 rays of spiritual power will be needed for the first level of Qi training. If each of the nine levels of Qi training requires this much spiritual power,
Power, that is 3285 rays of spiritual power. One spiritual stone provides a ray of spiritual energy, which is 3285 spiritual stones.
But the actual situation should be more than this. As the number of Qi training layers changes, the demand for spiritual energy should be more and more. For the time being, it is calculated as 4,000 spiritual stones.
It takes about five days to create spirit stones at a time. Forty spirit stones at a time, 4,000 spirit stones, is 500 days. This is still a conservative estimate.
During these five hundred days of cultivation, you must have a safe place. You can rent a small courtyard in other cities, but you are always worried about being disturbed by others. Moreover, such disturbance is inevitable, and the secret of your own spiritual stone cannot be disclosed.
found.
Or you can find an inaccessible place to stay for 500 days, but for such a long time, food and clothing is definitely a big problem.
Compared with stealing the jade, what happens afterward is more troublesome. Although it is a huge temptation to reach the ninth level of Qi training in less than two years, it is not easy to do.
Moreover, Zhou Tai also needs to do an operation. He must always take out all the strengthening points on his body and add them to his body when he is practicing. Normally, it doesn't matter, but after he starts practicing, is it really good to go back and forth like this?
?
Suppose you have reached the eighth level of Qi training. Because you have to plant spiritual stones, all the strengthening points have been withdrawn, and your body has become weaker, but the level of Qi training still exists. Isn't there any hidden danger?
And this kind of thing has to go back and forth a hundred times in cultivation, and it doesn't feel good even thinking about it.
Zhou Tai's ideal idea is to collect enough spiritual stones little by little, 4,000 directly, and then start practicing.
If after the training, 4000 spirit stones are not enough, just practice with a small amount of spirit stones little by little, and try not to use the strengthening points used on the body in the future.
But in this way, we have to get enough jade for 4,000 spiritual stones. How many times does it take this weight to carry back and forth? Once you get it, running away with it is a problem!
If you don’t want to be a cultivator who has gone back and forth more than a hundred times, you have to find a way to solve these problems. If you don’t solve them, the matter of the jade thief can only be postponed.
bother!
As I lay down, I couldn't help but think of the storage bag from before. It would be great if I had a bigger bag, then everything would not be a problem, and I could choose to practice in the way I like.
Huh? At a certain moment, an idea came to me. What would happen if I found a bag that could be strengthened and strengthened it four times? I dare not strengthen it four times with spiritual stones? I haven’t tried other things yet, how about giving it a try?
Is it possible to turn into that kind of storage bag? Although I know that the storage bag should be made through methods, it may also involve formations and other messy things.
But if you don’t try it out of curiosity, how can you know? There’s not much loss.
As soon as this idea came out, you couldn't hold it any longer?
Although he really wanted to give it a try, Zhou Tai also knew that the most difficult part of this matter was to find this kind of bag that could be strengthened.
If you really can't find it, just use materials that can be strengthened to make one. However, because the items in your hand that can be strengthened are all made of iron, Zhou Tai feels that it is unreliable to make one with iron, and it doesn't count as a bag.
