Ning Zhuo stared at the tree fighting ape Dasheng who was sitting next to him.
The results of today's trip out of the city were beyond our expectations.
First, Ning Zhuo showed the Shuwu Fighting Ape Dasheng to the outside world, and showed the outside world the results of his act of collecting Yuan Dasheng's corpse.
Even though Shuwu Fighting Ape Dasheng’s materials did not use any of Yuan Dasheng’s corpse, it didn’t matter.
Ning Zhuo could have explained it this way to the outside world: the mechanical creations he made at first were all initial creations, which needed to be continuously improved and only after obtaining mature mechanical drawings would he actually use Yuan Dasheng's bones as the main material.
Second, Ning Zhuo tested the combat effectiveness of Shuwu Fighting Ape Dasheng through actual combat, and indeed found many areas that could be improved and optimized.
"Tree Fighting Ape Dasheng needs to add more places for the talisman engravings, but there are only six, which cannot fully demonstrate Yuan Dasheng's martial arts attainments."
At this point, Ning Zhuo had to admit that he underestimated Yuan Dasheng! The Tree Fighting Ape had constructed the most flexible skeleton, because it was spliced together, basically every bone could move.
Therefore, from the bottom-level design, Yuan Dasheng can be given full freedom to perform various actions.
But in actual combat, many of Yuan Dasheng's martial arts must rely on other parts to exert their due power.
The design drawings of the Tree Fighting Ape: Great Victory lacked the formation layout. This was mainly because Ning Zhuo lacked time, as the formation layout was much more complicated and sophisticated.
Ning Zhuo could only use the combination of talismans to increase the power of the mechanism as much as possible to meet Yuan Dasheng's fighting needs.
Thirdly, Ning Zhuo found a way to strengthen his control over Yuan Dasheng! That was Yuan Er.
When Yuan Er was assassinated, Yuan Dasheng was ready to take action. Under Ning Zhuo's order, he participated in the rescue. This action fully conformed to his spirituality! When Ning Zhuo gave the order, more than a dozen pieces of kraft paper were lifted away. After Yuan Dasheng killed several assassins and drove away the rest, more than 30 pieces of kraft paper were directly lifted away.
"As long as Yuan Er is assassinated a few more times, and I use the Tree Fighting Ape·Da Sheng to save him a few more times, then this matter will be resolved, right?"
That’s what Ning Zhuo thought at the time.
So, he deliberately let the rest of the assassins go.
"If these assassins don't do anything, I can carry out a few assassinations myself."
"Anyway, Yuan Er is hiding in the Monkey Head Gang's base, so it's easy to find him."
"This time, he was ambushed and assassinated. There must be a traitor in the gang. He will never trust these people again. He will only hide in the deepest part of the gang station, living in fear and struggling to survive."
"I didn't expect that such a person could be so valuable."
"Um……"
"If assassinating Yuan Er is not enough for me to completely control Yuan Dasheng, then can I dig up Yuan Yi's grave?"
"Robbing the tomb in front of the Shuwu Douyuan Dasheng, and then I ordered it to stop it, should it be in line with the spirit?"
"Um……"
"Find some people to attack the Monkey Head Gang, let the Tree Fighting Ape Dasheng see it, and then go to rescue it. After all, this is the foundation it founded when it was alive, so maybe it will work."
Ning Zhuo was inspired, his mind was opened, and he thought of many methods.
He was filled with joy and couldn't help but reveal an innocent smile.
“In fact, it is quite simple to follow spirituality.”
“Just find the real need.”
The carriage drove from the Monkey Head Gang’s base to the Ning family’s territory.
"Maybe I should go directly to Zheng's house? Uncle's house isn't a good place for making mechanisms."
Ning Zhuo changed his route midway and ended up being turned away when he arrived at Zheng's house.
The Zheng family said: The Zheng family is entertaining distinguished guests and there are many inconveniences. We hope you will forgive us.
"Who could the distinguished guest be?" Ning Zhuo felt a little regretful and had to go back home.
On the way, he deliberately turned to look at his own courtyard and home.
His house had been reduced to ruins since the last attack, but reconstruction began that day.
Now it seems that the foundation of the house has been built. The magic array protecting the house is several levels higher than before. With the help of the Ning family's relationship, it can be directly connected to the entire Huoshi Xiancheng array.
Ning Zhuo returned to the Ning family's land.
The family messenger had been waiting for him for a long time, asking him to hand over the items he had previously collected. These were the various life-saving items that the family had distributed to him when he was about to go out. The most valuable one was the directional escape talisman.
Ning Zhuo sighed and returned everything.
Ning Xiaoren heaved a sigh of relief when he received a report from the messenger, confirming that the life-saving supplies had returned to the clan treasury.
He got first-hand intelligence from the guards and felt complicated.
"This Ning Zhuo is really a mechanical seed!"
"The previous mechanical Infernape was already pretty good, and now we've designed the combat mechanical Tree Fighting Ape - Great Victory, which has extraordinary combat power!"
"The stronger he is, the more helpful he will be to the Ning family in the alliance of the three families."
"But...if this continues, can Ning Xiaohui suppress him?"
Ning Xiaoren is the main branch, Ning Zhuo is the branch, and Ning Xiaoren certainly prefers Ning Xiaohui.
He thought about it and sent someone to pass the news to Ning Xiaohui's grandmother.
Ning Xiaohui's grandmother is giving Ning Xiaohui secret special training.
Ning Xiaohui's throat was still wrapped in layers of gauze, and she stared intently at the basin full of ice in front of her.
At first, she was so cold that her whole body was trembling and her face was covered with frost.
Afterwards, her hands were blue and her body was numb from the cold.
And now, at the last moment, she actually felt a hint of warmth from her numb hands! It was like a seed of life in an extremely cold place, stubbornly sprouting green buds in the solid ice.
Ning Xiaohui suddenly had an epiphany and realized it on the spot.
Her hands also radiated a jade-like glow, instantly absorbing all the frostbite and coldness in her body, and then transformed it into a vibrant vitality and fed it back.
The next moment, Ning Xiaohui was radiant, and all the injuries on her body were completely healed! Including her broken throat, it was all back to normal.
"Grandma, I succeeded!" Ning Xiaohui tore off the gauze around her neck and laughed happily.
Her grandmother stood by and witnessed her granddaughter's breakthrough. She comforted her with tears in her eyes: "Okay, okay, grandma saw it. You are worthy of being my beloved granddaughter."
"You should have realized the profound meaning of the Ice-Fat Jade Hands by now."
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
Ning Xiaohui carefully considered her words and said, "This is like a tiny ray of life under the extreme cold and cruelty, a change after the extreme end."
Her grandmother nodded and said slowly: "Everything in the world has a spirit."
"A monk's talent is his innate spirituality. Spirituality is incalculable, and so are his talents."
"The reason why grandma asked you to stick your hands into the ice is to let you experience through this hard training that there is still hope for life in the face of extreme cold and cruelty."
"As the saying goes, there is always a way out! There is no dilemma that is absolutely impossible to escape. Even in the most desperate situation, there is always a glimmer of hope."
"This is the principle of the operation of heaven and earth. It is the truth that we cultivators pursue, and it is also the meaning contained in the Ice-Fat Jade Hand."
"Here is the message that the young patriarch just sent. Take a look."
Ning Xiaohui took a look and said, "I didn't expect Ning Zhuo to be so talented. The previous Mechanical Fire Monkey was not his limit. He created another excellent Mechanical Ape so quickly."
"But it's nothing."
Grandma Ning Xiaohui nodded: "Yes."
"Xiaohui, you have now mastered the Ice Fat Jade Hand. Your strength will improve by leaps and bounds."
"Although you have changed to practice the Five Elements Qi Law, the Five Elements magic power includes water, which can match your talent."
"In addition, there are earth magic and wood magic, which are also a good match for the Ice-Fat Jade Hand."
"If you obtain the subsequent skills of the Five Elements Qi Law in the future and surpass the upper limit of our clan's main practice, the Ice Heart Sutra, then changing your practice will be a better path for you."
"That won't work."
"Even if he has talent, our clan won't test it out for him now."
"Even if he finds out in the future, he won't have a good strategy to develop his talent."
"For example, during your hard training, grandma specifically blocked the information for you. In fact, the secrets of the Ice-Fat Jade Hands have long been recorded in the family's treasured manual."
"If you read it in advance, it will be a huge obstacle to your true understanding of asceticism."
"Only when you truly experience the hopelessness of life in the midst of the freezing cold can you further master your talent."
“This is the family heritage!”
"Ning Zhuo's talent is obviously not common in our Ning family bloodline. He will not receive the support and guidance of the family's ancestors, and he will definitely take many detours in the future."
"The future is yours, Xiaohui."
Ning Xiaohui nodded: "Not only the future, but also the present is mine!"
"Once I have mastered the Ice-Fat Jade Hand, I will return to the repair team and let everyone see the style of the Ning family's main branch!"
…
Accompanied by Wang Lan, Ning Zhuo entered Ning Ze's talisman-making room.
He looked around and sighed: "It can still be used after some modifications."
Wang Lan was angry in her heart, but she smiled apologetically: "Xiaozhuo, I'm glad I can help you."
"It's a pity that I am a woman and don't know anything about mechanical engineering. Your uncle is much better than me in this respect."
"If he returns home, he will definitely help you more with him around."
Wang Lan reminded Ning Zhuo in a roundabout way that his uncle was still being held in a private prison.
Ning Zhuo seemed not to have heard it. He took out the mechanism manufacturing tools one by one from his storage bag, cleared out some facilities in the talisman making room, and temporarily transformed it into a simple mechanism workshop.
Wang Lan witnessed and participated in the entire process. She felt more and more that the slaves were bullying the masters and that the villains were in power. She was filled with sadness and anger, but she could only endure it.
Ning Zhuo asked Wang Lan to leave, and left alone. He set up the Tree Fighting Ape·Da Sheng and began to dismantle it.
The most important change is to increase the engraving position of the talisman.
After some hammering, the number of Yuan Dasheng's talisman slots increased from six to ten.
"Next, we will refine the various talismans and adjust their combinations. This should be able to basically meet Yuan Dasheng's martial arts expression needs."
