Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master/
Chapter 6: I Would Rather Be Mediocre
Chen Cha, who was suspicious, asked Ning Zhuo a few questions.
The question involves many aspects, and unless it is the real producer, it cannot be answered.
Of course, this was difficult for Ning Zhuo.
After some communication, Chen Cha dispelled her doubts. She couldn't help but be shocked." He really designed and made this?"
"Isn't he a disciple of the Ning family? When did Master Ning become so good at mechanism arts to actually nurture such an outstanding young cultivator?"
"If this continues, this child will definitely become a great person in the future!"
Chen Cha was completely impressed by Ning Zhuo and was extremely interested. She could not help but ask a few more questions.
The answer is: "This year's exam, I've left school. Senior has a keen eye. I really like mechanism techniques and have always been interested in them. On weekdays, he would try his best to collect some books and study them privately. It has nothing to do with the Ning Family School."
Chen Cha stroked her beard and deliberately asked," Among the Hundred Arts of Cultivation, the top four arts are alchemy, refining, making talismans, and formation. The mechanism technique was at the bottom of the hundred arts, and it was a partial subject among partial subjects. Why do you like that?"
Ning Zhuo's heart skipped a beat. He realized that this exchange had reached the most critical moment!
He had a plan for coming into contact with Chen Cha. Moving out the monkey was part of his plan.
The young man pondered for a moment, his expression turning serious, and solemnly said,"I believe that so-called cultivation is to cultivate the truth between heaven and earth." The Hundred Arts of Cultivation are the application of these truths, essentially tools."
" Pills are tools, magic tools, flying swords are tools, talismans and formations are tools."
" Using these tools will make it easier for us to cultivate and increase the success rate of various actions."
" And the ultimate tool is none other than mechanism techniques!"
"The new material on a mechanism was refined using alchemy. The structure of the mechanism is shaped by refining techniques. The magic formations and talismans on the mechanisms all involve the skills of formation and talisman making."
" An excellent mechanical creation is a clever combination of cultivation techniques."
Ning Zhuo paused for a moment." As for why mechanism arts are at the bottom of all arts, it belongs to a side school. It's because it's difficult to learn and master. The threshold is the highest!"
"On the one hand, constructing mechanical objects requires cultivators to master a variety of cultivation techniques. Alchemy, weapon refinement, talisman making, and formation setting were all basic. After mastering it, you have to select and combine countless materials and techniques."
"On the other hand, designing machinery is harder. The test is the monk's thinking, talent, inspiration and imagination. A good design plan could take cultivators more than ten years to complete. In this process, we are often stuck at a point and cannot make any progress for many years."
" Only excellent designs can produce excellent mechanical artifacts."
Hearing Ning Zhuo's words, Chen Cha looked back slightly. Her eyes lit up and she sized up the youth in front of her. She could not help but clap." Well said, well said!"
His attitude towards Ning Zhuo changed again.
From appreciation and interest just now, it turned into kindness to people of the same kind!
Human interaction is wonderful. Some people get along day and night, but they are the most familiar strangers. Some people are only communicating for the first time, but they can resonate and identify with ideas.
Chen Cha and Ning Zhuo became more and more interested in each other and naturally changed their titles.
Chen Cha affectionately called Ning Zhuo "Xiao Zhuo", Ning Zhuo was renamed each other "Chen Lao".
Chen Cha pondered for a moment and gave Ning Zhuo three solutions.
Normally, he would at most take out a set as a puzzle. But facing Ning Zhuo, he made no reservations.
Ning Zhuo listened to these three plans and immediately asked countless questions.
Chen Cha answered all of them, and her attitude towards answering them was quite enthusiastic. She had long forgotten about the charges.
Ning Zhuo continued to make suggestions and modify these three sets of plans.
Chen Cha couldn't help but be immersed in the process of discussing with her colleagues, feeling very happy.
In the discussion between the two people, the plan was rapidly improved and optimized, and finally decided to add blood to the hot monkey, and set up a dynamic matrix in the blood to stabilize the body. At the same time, the blood evaporated and dissipated heat, which could greatly relieve the heat borne by the hot monkey.
Chen Cha judged," Based on my many years of experience, once the Hot Monkey is on the market, it will definitely be popular."
"Little Zhuo, why don't you give the Flaming Monkey to my Frisbee Workshop to make?"
"As for you, how can you personally produce a large number of explosive mechanism monkeys? We have to entrust workshops to manufacture large quantities."
" My Frisbee Workshop has enough cultivators and equipment to meet your manufacturing needs."
" At the same time, I've been operating in Fire Persimmon Immortal City for decades. I have sufficient sales channels and some background in the City Lord's Mansion."
"On the one hand, I can rely on my connections to reduce taxes to a certain extent, allowing you to earn more."
"On the other hand, it's a form of protection. Once the mechanism is invented, it will seriously harm the interests of the Monkey King Gang."
"This gang raises spirit pets and monkeys. Their biggest business is to order monkeys to pick explosive fire persimmon."
"We need to take precautions against this."
Ning Zhuo blinked and pretended to hesitate." This…"
Chen Cha smiled and said sincerely,"Little Zhuo, I'll tell you the truth."
"This is also extremely beneficial to me."
"My Frisbee Workshop hasn't produced anything eye-catching for many years. Your hot monkey is just what I need."
" In the future, the better the Hot Monkey sells, the more famous my Frisbee Workshop will be, and the more convenient it will be to do business."
"Therefore, our workshop will only charge you 30% of the profits from the hot monkey. All production costs will be borne by me!"
Ning Zhuo scratched his head." Elder Chen, I can feel your sincerity. It's just…"
And he said,"This is a great thing to think about." Maybe, junior, you should ask your family. However, although the Ning family was a great cultivation family, they did not have much strength in the machinery industry. It was not good to rely on the family to do this business. In fact, they probably commissioned the mechanical workshop to do it."
"This old man will tell you the truth. Little Zhuo, you can go and inquire!"
Ning Zhuo waved his hand and said,"Old Chen, my parents died when I was a child, and I lived in the house of my uncle and aunt." Now that I have graduated from school, I have completely left and lived alone."
"I can make my own decisions about these things. I never thought of handing this mechanism over to the Ning family."
"I just have a small request."
Chen Cha: "Oh? Just say it."
Ning Zhuo: "I want to join your workshop and participate in all kinds of work in the mechanism workshop to help me gain experience." I would also like to ask you a lot of advice, Mr. Chen. I have so many problems, I've accumulated them. As for the consultation fee, I'll deduct it from my Hot Monkey's earnings. How about that?"
Chen Cha laughed out loud,"Xiao Zhuo, it is a blessing for the Frisbee Workshop that you can come to me." I welcome you very much!"
"Based on your talent, you can be the Deputy District Master directly."
Ning Zhuo quickly waved his hand:"This can't be done!" I have little talent and knowledge. What I need is to learn and ask for advice. I'm just an ordinary Ning Family youth. With my ability, how can I be the Deputy District Master?"
"Ordinary? You are too modest!" Chen Cha shook her head and sighed. She mistook it for the Ning family's tradition.
Ning Zhuo's true thoughts are:"The reason why Old Chen praised me so much and gave me courtesy should be to see the profits of consulting business and organs."
" I've only had a small success in mechanism art. Whether it's the upper and lower Wishchain or the fiery monkey, there's a huge gap between them and those classic mechanism art."
"Take the design of the mechanical monkey for example. I spent several years and stumbled along the way. This difficulty was solved only after consulting Elder Chen."
"I still need more and greater progress in my mechanical arts."
" Elder Chen's praise isn't true. I don't deserve such an evaluation!"
Little did they know that Chen Cha's evaluation had never been exaggerated. It was completely based on reality and rich life experience.
Ning Zhuo did not know that these were Chen Cha's true words.
On the one hand, Ning Zhuo had been hiding his true self. He had never had such a similar exchange like today, and he was not clear about his exact position.
On the other hand, Ning Zhuo obeyed his mother's dying instructions and had been cautious. In order to hide his self-knowledge, he had always been doing psychological construction.
Even if he had made some achievements, he would try his best to criticize himself from all aspects, find out all kinds of shortcomings, and make sure that he did not fall into complacency.
For fourteen years, he kept telling himself: I am ordinary and ordinary. Even if I do this, someone else can do it. I still need to work hard. I can't slack off…
Over time, countless times of persuasion, let him form a very modest character, do not see their own excellence, from the bottom of his heart that there is nothing great, he still needs to work hard in many places.
That night, Ning Zhuo put the hot monkeys that had been arranged into the furnace and baked them again.
"There is a high probability of success this time."
Ning Zhuo was quite confident about this.
"This is all thanks to Chen Cha. This person's experience is ten times more than mine, at least a hundred times more."
"In the future, when you work in his mechanical workshop, you must make good use of this opportunity and ask him for more advice."
Ning Zhuo had investigated Chen Cha for many years and had a good understanding of her personality.
Just like Chen Cha had a high opinion of Ning Zhuo, Ning Zhuo also had a high opinion of Chen Cha.
" If there's no problem with this crucial link, then the next step is how to contact the Lava Immortal Palace."
The Lava Immortal Palace was hiding in the mountain of Fire Peristle Mountain, hidden in thick lava.
Ning Zhuo first had to arrive at Huoshi Mountain.
This path exists. First, they arrived at the top of Mount Huoshi. Then, they set off from the crater and drilled into the Red Flame Demon Cave. Choose the correct path from the thousands of passages, and then continue to go deeper, you will reach the place where you can see the lava palace.
"But if I drill for the first time, there will be problems with the Lava Fairy Palace. This is a bit too conspicuous."
"After all, I've never entered the Flaming Demon Cave in all these years. The act of entering a cave suddenly is abrupt."
"I should have found cover."
Thinking of this, Ning Zhuo's big uncle Ning Zhe's image appeared in his mind.
For a moment, he had a plan.
