After Ji Xia dealt with the restrictions on the Tibetan empty gourd, she felt a little more at ease.
He was just about to suspend his practice of the Way of Restriction and study the classics of exercises, but Jing Ye came to the door and said loudly: "My lord, Tianfu Pavilion seems to have something, I want to meet the lord."
Ji Xia nodded secretly. It has been more than ten days since the establishment of the Tianfu Pavilion, and everyone in the Tianfu Pavilion has been studying runes in the Zongfang sandalwood. Now that they want to meet him, they should have gained something.
He opened his mouth softly, but his voice floated out of the door, and rang in Jing Ye's ears outside the door.
"Let them come here and meet me."
Jing Ye bowed and saluted, then turned and left.
Not long after, Jing Ye and the old man Zhong Quan appeared at the door.
"Chen Zhongquan sees the lord." Zhongquan bowed earnestly outside the door.
"come in."
Jing Ye and Zhong Quan entered the room and saw Ji Xia sitting on a wide stone chair. The table in front of him was full of jade slips and books. At this moment, Ji Xia was carefully flipping through a book in his hand.
Zhong Quan didn't dare to hesitate, he said loudly: "My lord, I was elected by my colleagues in the Tianfu Pavilion, and I came here to report to the lord the progress of the research on the rune technique."
Ji Xia nodded casually, motioning for him to continue.
Zhong Quan said: "After eleven days of research and practice, day and night, I, the members of the Tianfu Pavilion, have fully grasped the basic principles of Fu, and I also have a deep understanding of Mingguang Runes and Furnace Furnace Runes, and I can start classes at any time. "
Ji Xia raised his head and glanced at Zhong Quan, and said, "Do you have a model?"
Zhong Quan took out two talisman jades from his bosom and handed them to Jing Ye, who passed them to Ji Xia.
Ji Xia took the two pieces of talisman jade and examined them carefully, and found that on the talisman jade, there were two runes constructed with ink. Looking at them with the big day spirit eyes, there was spiritual energy flowing on the runes, exuding strange power.
Ji Xia tried to slowly inject spiritual energy into the talisman jade, and immediately a little warmth came from a talisman jade. The warmth was gentle, but very penetrating. In a short moment, Ji Xia felt the temperature of the room increased. A little bit, but it didn't cause him any discomfort.
This is the Furnace Ascension Rune. It is not effective if used alone, but if supplemented with a furnace fire, it can make the flames in the furnace warmer.
On the other talisman jade, however, a bright light radiated, the light was very dazzling, illuminating the entire dark room, and the light shone from the window, illuminating the pitch-black courtyard as well.
Looking at the two talisman jades, Ji Xia was quite satisfied with the effect of the talisman jades.
He thought for a while, then frowned and asked: "If you use runes to engrave runes, the power of rune spells will definitely not be weak, but I, Taicang, don't have so many runes to supply all the people of Taicang. Do you have any?" Method?"
Zhongquan bowed and said: "My lord, the effect of talisman jade is naturally the best, and the spiritual yuan needed for the follow-up will be much less, but if we don't have enough runes, we can use the special secret method recorded in the book of talismans to use spiritual energy Jing makes a large amount of spirit ink, and then uses spirit ink to draw runes, although the effect is not as good, and it will consume more spirit crystals in the follow-up, but it is still much more affordable than rune jade."
The spirit talisman divine strategy is naturally the spirit talisman Xuance. Ji Xia changed the name of this jade slip because he was afraid that it would leak out and be discovered by the big talisman, causing unnecessary trouble.
While speaking, he handed out two flat stone slabs to Jing Ye again, which were square and about half the size of a palm.
Ji Xia took the stone slab from Jing Ye's hand, poured spiritual energy into it, and immediately knew that the stone slab was very ordinary, exactly the same as the stone slabs used to build the room.
The runes on the stone slab flickered as Ji Xia injected spiritual energy, and the effect was not weak.
"If it is the residence of the Taicang people, the house is far less spacious than the prince's bedroom. This rune constructed with spiritual ink must be enough."
Ji Xia nodded, and then looked at another stone slab, on which the Mingguang Rune was built.
The light was on, only slightly weaker than the Mingguang Rune, but the gap was not too big.
"How about the daily consumption of these two runes? How many spirit crystals do you need to brew spirit ink?" Ji Xia asked.
"Compared to drawing with talisman jade, the consumption of runes drawn on stone slabs is slightly higher. A spirit crystal furnace rune can be used for 24 months, and a bright light rune can be used for 48 months. The consumption of brewing spirit ink spirit crystals is also very good. It takes about ten The spirit ink of Dao runes requires a spirit crystal."
Ji Xia still remembers that he briefly flipped through the spirit talisman Xuance before, and knew that if he used talisman jade to draw the furnace rune, one spirit crystal can last for 36 months, and using lingmo to construct the rune is indeed inferior to the talisman jade .
However, although there are many talisman jades in Ji Xia Youkong Ring, if it is to supply the entire Taicang, it is not enough.
The spirit crystal consumed by Lingmo is obviously much more cost-effective than the value of talisman jade.
"For the two runes of Shenglu and Mingguang, about 18 households across the country need 36 spirit crystals for heating and lighting, and the spirit ink brewed by one spirit crystal can construct ten runes. About thirty-six thousand spirit crystals."
"The rune is successfully constructed and can be used almost unlimitedly. A spirit crystal can provide heating for 24 months and lighting for 48 months. If the rune is only opened in the coldest two months of the year, a spirit crystal can Heating for 12 years; using the Mingguang rune for three hours every night, one spirit crystal can illuminate for 15 years, so it is still a good deal.”
Ji Xia secretly calculated an account in his heart. It would take about 40 spirit crystals to construct the Furnace Rune and Bright Light Rune for the entire Taicang.
After paying 40 spirit crystals, within ten years at least, the people of Taicang will no longer need to fear the cold and the darkness of daily life.
Is it worth it?
Of course it's a bargain!
In Jixia Youkong Ring, counting the spirit crystals looted from Zhang Yi's Zangkong gourd, the total number of spirit crystals has exceeded 100 million.
These spirit crystals are basically useless to Ji Xia. As the lord of Taicang, he has issued Hongyuan many times. He wants to make Taicang prosperous, but he is reluctant to give up some mere spirit crystals.
Thinking of this, he put the slate on the table, took a blank jade slip, wrote a few lines, handed it to Jing Ye and said, "Go and order someone to hand over this royal decree to the star of the Taicang Academy." , Let him immediately start the class at Tianfu Academy, no matter how many people there are, let them all attend classes in the same open area, with a member of the Tianfu Pavilion as the teacher."
Speaking of this, he looked at Zhongquan again: "Remember, as Mr. Tianfu this time, you don't need to teach your disciples the principle of magic charms. You just need to let them master the construction of the two runes of Shenglu and Mingguang. method."
Jing Ye and Zhong Quan agreed to agree, and Jing Ye took the jade slip and left with Zhong Quan.
Sitting alone in the room, Ji Xia rubbed his chin with his fingers, and thought to himself: "The progress of my study of classics is a lot slower now due to the restriction, and I need to speed up the progress."
He thought of the map of Xunkong that he saw just now, and the vast territory of Baimu and Qiling, and felt a little strange: "I went to Dafu before, and I only felt that Dafu was peaceful, and it seemed that there was no war. Keynote, Dafu is such a sweet pastry, why would Baimu and Qiling let him develop safely?"
"Maybe there are many secrets in it, which makes people a little confused."
The collection of books in the treasure house of the sacrificial gods is not only the secret books of exercises, but also many lonely copies of secrets.
Ji Xia has read a lot, and her vision is no longer as narrow as before, and she feels a little weird in her heart.
He shook his head, put aside the doubts in his heart, and thought to himself: "It is still necessary to develop the national power as soon as possible, otherwise, if there is a huge turmoil between the big countries, and the sky is affected, it will inevitably be lost!"
Chapter 169 The Order of the Royal Court
An old man was preparing meals in his house in the dark.
In the room, there were two children, one big and one small, curled up beside an old stove, still shivering slightly.
Nearly half of the day's death has passed, and this year's day's death seems to be colder than in previous years.
"Grand grandson, grandpa can't walk now, and he can't see many scenes of Taicang. Can you tell me about what you saw when you followed the street pavilion officials to pick up the wood that day?"
The old man turned his head, the dim yellow light from the stove shone on his face, making him look even older.
The older child, about eleven or twelve years old, sniffled and said in a childish voice, "Grandpa, you've heard it many times, why do you still want to listen?"
Before the old man made a sound, a younger girl, about five or six years old, raised her head, trembling, and said in a childish voice, "Brother, please say it again, my daughter wants to hear it too."
The boy heard Nannan's words and saw Nannan constantly breathing out with his hands, so he couldn't help but put her hands in his arms with distress.
