"As long as they are friends. I, an old drunkard, have always been very interesting to my friends."
The old drunkard laughed, changed the subject, and did not ask further questions. With a touch of wine, the fan appeared in front of him.
Li Jiumu was wary at first. When he saw the fan, he stopped thinking about it. He immediately stepped forward and took a closer look. After trying it out twice, he took it apart...
"The structure is so simple, but the effect is so wonderful."
"Our weapon makers have formations that can also generate gusts of cool breeze, and even directly adjust the heating and cooling to make the cave warm in winter and cool in summer."
"But those formations are all mobilizing laws, which directly generate cool breeze, or directly adjust the cold and heat. At least they are at the level of Taoist tools... This fan is different!"
"It uses the core formation to drive the mechanical parts, and uses the mechanism to drive the fan blades to rotate, thus generating cool wind. This is at the level of a mortal weapon."
Li Jiumu saw through the key at a glance.
"Wonderful! It's really wonderful!"
Then he clapped his hands and praised.
The biggest difference between Taoist weapons and mortal weapons is whether divine consciousness is required to activate the core formation when used.
When the Taoist weapon is used, it must be activated with spiritual consciousness. The core formation can directly produce thunder and lightning, etc., which is very powerful.
In other words, ordinary mortals cannot use Dao tools.
Mortal weapons only have a simple core formation and do not require divine consciousness to be activated in order to be used.
Moreover, the simple core formation cannot directly produce thunder and lightning, but can only generate general power to promote the operation of the mechanism.
For example, wooden ox and flowing horse are mortal weapons and can be controlled and used by mortals.
"This thing seems very simple, but the person who can think of this first must be a wonderful person!" Li Jiumu couldn't help but nod in admiration.
In fact, many scientific and technological achievements are like this.
For example, the Jenny Spinning Machine has no barriers compared to traditional spinning machines. Craftsmen can make it just by taking a look at it.
But it lacked that flash of inspiration, so it was not invented until the eighteenth century.
Li Jiumu is a master of tool making and loves novelty gadgets the most. He naturally understands this truth.
Things that seem simple and easy to explain are actually very rare.
"Who made this thing?" Li Jiumu asked.
"A friend of mine is a mortal, over sixty years old."
"Oh, that's such a pity!" Li Jiumu clicked his tongue with regret on his face.
A mortal who is over sixty years old has only a few years to live!
After a little hesitation, he said: "If you have a chance, you can bring him to my place for a chat."
The old drunkard grinned.
"good!"
This was what he was waiting for.
Next, when the time comes, it will be natural for him to bring Li Chengfei over.
…
Opposite the medicine field and by the river.
Several handymen in the dining room were busy fishing. From time to time they glanced at Li Chengfei, who was enjoying the shade and drinking tea in the yard, with displeasure in his eyes.
"spit!"
"A drug boy really thinks of himself as an uncle!"
"Don't worry! His good days will only be a few days away. Elder Tian has not come out of the practice room yet, and he is afraid that something has happened. Now he is just waiting for the elders' court to announce the news of his death, and he will become a lost dog. By then, he will not be left alone
Let’s knead it!”
"Elder Tian's nephews came yesterday. On the surface, they were concerned about Elder Tian, but they focused on asking about Elder Tian's property. Those nephews are all from the prefectural city. I heard that they are also tough in the local area. I saw them.
He is not someone to be trifled with. When they see this man surnamed Li eating from Elder Tian and lying down to rest instead of working every day, they will definitely not be able to spare him!"
"That's right! Other medicine boys are busy from morning to night, but this guy named Li is the only one. I see him sitting in the yard every day, and he is even more leisurely than the ones in our dining room... It really pisses me off!
"
"Huh? Why is he here? Let's leave quickly!"
"It's not that we're afraid of him, it's just that a good man doesn't suffer the immediate consequences! He's going to be unlucky soon, so there's no need for us to go head-to-head with a dying man!"
Those handymen had long been accustomed to scolding Li Chengfei every time they fished here.
Scolding Li Chengfei not only relieves anger, but also makes them share the same hatred and become more united.
Unexpectedly, while he was cursing today, Li Chengfei actually came over, carrying something in his hand... a mortal weapon!
The scene where the boss was knocked down with one blow reappeared in his mind.
Li Chengfei is very annoying, but he has a very powerful mortal weapon in his hand... and he really dares to hit people!
Therefore, the people in the dining room only dared to talk behind his back, and no one dared to trouble him again.
"Are Elder Tian's nephews coming to collect the property?"
Li Chengfei touched his nose.
He had sharp ears and eyes, and he heard clearly everything those handymen said.
This trouble comes one after another.
"Don't leave, guys! I don't know how to eat people."
Li Chengfei greeted.
The handymen looked at each other and stopped.
If they run away at this time, it will appear that they are too timid, as if they are afraid...
"What's the matter? We don't have anything to say to you." asked a leading handyman.
Li Chengfei glanced at him, smiled, and said:
"I recognize you. You were there last time. However, at that time you were a little follower following your leader. Now, you are the leader?"
"You have to thank me for this! If I hadn't killed your leader with one shot, how would you have gotten this position?"
The handyman who took the lead had a look of embarrassment on his face.
This is a fact.
The positions in the catering room are like carrots and pitfalls.
The last supervisor was injured by Li Chengfei. Although he did not die, his job was lost after he returned.
Handymen have no rights!
The Immortal Sect lets them in and lets them work, and they work for five or six hours every day.
He was injured and couldn't do any work. The Immortal Sect couldn't support a disabled person, so he was naturally sent away.
That's why he rose to power.
But it would be inappropriate to say this in public.
However, looking at the mortal weapon in Li Chengfei's hand, he did not dare to talk back and could only stare.
"I'm here to negotiate a deal with you. I want some blood eels. Can I buy a few from you? The price is easy to tell."
"You want to buy blood eel from us? Tsk! Why should we sell it to you?" the handyman in the lead curled his lips.
The other handymen also looked at each other with joking expressions on their faces.
This annoying old man Li actually begged them. Isn't this humiliating himself?
Whoosh!
Li Chengfei was too lazy to say anything more and just threw a small piece of gold nugget over.
The handyman who took the lead took it as a reflex reflex, took a look at it, his expression flashed with excitement, pinched it in his hand, put it to his mouth, and bit it with his teeth...
real!
"The blood eel should be priced at whatever price it deserves. For this nugget of gold, I want to apologize to my brothers. The last conflict was not my intention. You come here to fish every day. We can't see each other when we look up. There's no need to do so."
So stiff." Li Chengfei said.
Several handymen suddenly understood.
Li Chengfei wants to make peace with them!
It's right to think about it. Even if a little medicine boy has a sharp mortal weapon in his hand, how can he have the courage to go against the servants in their catering room?
"If you really want to apologize, your sincerity is a bit lacking! Our boss Wu spends more than this amount just to treat his injuries..."
"Hmph! Is a little handyman's life as valuable as this? I'm just a side job and don't know much. Don't lie to me!"
Although Li Chengfei said this, stroking the shotgun with his hand made several handymen tremble in their hearts.
"It's better to dissolve enemies than to make them! No matter how much, I don't have any more. This nugget of gold was given to me by my niece! She saved some money at Elder Libra's place. However, she hasn't come to see her for a long time.
I don't have much money." Li Chengfei changed his tone.
Combining soft and hard, give me another step...
Based on his life experience, it is not easy to tame these handymen.
Sure enough, the handyman who took the lead put a smile on his face and put away the gold nugget.
Gold is already in your hands. If you want to take it out again, you need great determination.
This is human nature!
"Yes, yes, yes! Lao Li, you are right, it is better to dissolve enemies than to end them! There was a misunderstanding last time. It was the guys in the alchemy room who bullied people too much. To save trouble, they dumped rubbish everywhere. Boss Wu didn't understand the situation either.
"
The handyman in the lead made a hahaha and got off the road.
"The blood eel is easy to talk about. However, the price of this blood eel is not cheap!"
