Chapter 65 Making Puppets

In order to sell the dim sum, Wang Changxue yelled loudly.

The effect was not bad. In half a day, three catties of snacks were sold.

Wang Mingzhan and Wang Changsheng will not leave Bailong Valley in a short time, they need to help Wang Changxue settle down before they can leave with confidence.

Wang Changsheng looked at the monks all over the street, and had an idea in his mind.

He bought a copy of "Mu's Artifact Refining Secret Code" from Mu Yuyan before, the end of the page recorded the making of puppets, maybe he could make some puppets and sell them.

All the spirit stones on his body were given to Wang Changxue, so he could only ask Wang Changxue for help.

After Wang Changxue came back from setting up a stall, Wang Changsheng told Wang Changxue the whole story.

"Ninth brother, do you want to make puppet beasts for sale? How sure are you that you can make them?"

Wang Changsheng thought for a while, and said: "50%! In these four months, we will eat and sleep in the open air. When I have nothing to do, I will read the method of making puppet beasts. The making of puppet beasts is similar to that of refining weapons. Now I can only refine them." Low-grade spiritual artifacts, let alone low-grade spiritual artifacts, even middle-grade spiritual artifacts are not easy to sell. I have observed in the past few days. In Bailong Valley, only Tianbinglou and Bailianfang have puppets for sale, and reservations are required. I I want to give it a try, but I don’t have any spirit stones on me.”

"How many spirit stones do you want?"

"One hundred and fifty spirit stones, making a puppet requires a lot of tools."

"I'll give you three hundred spirit stones. Don't refuse in a hurry. I don't give it to you for nothing. If you earn spirit stones, we will get four or six points."

Wang Changsheng was a little moved, he patted his chest and promised: "Second Sister, don't worry! I won't let you down."

Wang Changsheng took the three hundred pieces of spiritual stones given by Wang Changxue, and bought back the tools and eight materials for making puppets.

Puppets are made of metal or spirit wood, and are divided into three steps: engraving shape, imprinting spirit, and possessing soul.

What he wants to make is a first-grade low-grade puppet ape puppet. The main materials are 30-year-old hemlock wood, jade and silver powder, and the first-grade low-grade demon mouse spirit. These three things cost 33 yuan of spirit stones. The price of refining a middle-grade spirit weapon has already fallen.

After buying back the materials, Wang Changsheng was not in a hurry to make the puppet beast, but repeatedly watched the method of making the puppet beast.

Wang Mingzhan learned that Wang Changsheng wanted to make puppet beasts, and he didn't stop him. He and Wang Changxue took turns to keep the stall and sell dim sum.

Seven days passed quickly.

Wang Changsheng fixed his eyes on a piece of wood in his hand, holding a small knife in his hand, and carved it carefully.

There were a lot of spirit wood fragments scattered on the ground, and there were a few lifelike little monkeys with twisted spirit patterns on their bodies.

There is a lifelike one-legged monkey on the table, and Wang Changsheng is carving the last foot.

As time passed, the wood in Wang Changsheng's hand turned into a small foot. He attached this small foot to the one-legged monkey, and an ape puppet took shape.

In order to save costs, he bought some five or six-year-old spiritual wood to practice his hands. After practicing many times, his carving skills improved.

Sculpting a puppet beast is only the first step in making a puppet.

After carving a little monkey, Wang Changsheng took out a two-inch long silver knife and carved it on the little monkey.

A faint aura emanated from the silver knife. This is a low-grade spiritual weapon, which is specially used to engrave spirit patterns, also known as the spirit pattern knife.

The first-order low-grade puppets have to engrave spirit patterns of different attributes, and the specific spirit patterns to engrave depend on the maker.

Wang Changsheng planned to carve three kinds of spirit patterns: Quick Step, Strong, and Strong. The Quick Step spirit pattern was carved on the monkey's legs, the Strong spirit pattern was carved on the monkey's chest and head, and the Strong Spirit pattern was carved on the monkey's arms.

The swift spirit pattern can speed up the monkey's running speed, the strong spirit pattern can weaken the enemy's attack, and the strong spirit pattern can make its attack stronger.

He held his breath and concentrated, picked up the spirit pattern knife, and injected mana into the spirit pattern knife according to the method of engraving spirit patterns recorded in the ancient books. The spirit pattern knife suddenly shone brightly, and small spirit patterns appeared one after another on the monkey's legs.

When he was carving for the first time, he was very cautious. Because of his caution, he did not perform at his best level, but failed instead.

He has failed four times and this is the fifth time.

He took a deep breath and stared at the little monkey in his hand.

A little bit of time passed, and a thin layer of sweat oozed from his forehead.

The little monkey has two arms, three powerful spirit patterns carved on each arm, three strong spirit patterns carved on the chest and head, and three fast walking spirit patterns carved on each foot.

After carving the spirit pattern, he took out a white porcelain bottle and a porcelain bowl.

He moved his lips a few times, and blue light appeared out of nowhere in the room, turning into a puddle of clear water and falling into the porcelain bowl.

He picked up the white porcelain bottle, poured some silver powder into the porcelain bowl, and muttered something in his mouth.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the sound of incantations in his mouth stopped, and several formulas were thrown into the spiritual water in the porcelain bowl.

The spirit water dripped around and flew into the air.

Wang Changsheng threw the little monkey puppet forward, and manipulated the spiritual water with his spiritual consciousness to wrap the little monkey puppet.

As if under some kind of guidance, the spirit water rushed towards the spirit pattern on the little monkey, and the volume of the spirit water shrank rapidly.

Not long after, the spirit water disappeared, and the little monkey was suspended in mid-air, with shining silver spirit patterns appearing one after another on its hands, feet, chest, and head.

He showed a bit of joy, took out a black porcelain bottle from his arms, opened the bottle cap, and a ball of green light the size of an egg flew out of it.

The silver spirit pattern on the little monkey seemed to have some kind of special attraction, and the green light ball slowly flew towards the little monkey, and finally sank into the little monkey's head and disappeared.

The green light group is actually the spirit of a first-order low-grade monster mouse, and every puppet beast must be refined into the spirit of the monster beast to drive it.

Wang Changsheng couldn't wait to pat the little monkey puppet on the back, and there was a muffled sound, revealing a secret door, he put a low-grade spirit stone in, and closed the secret door.

The little monkey seemed to come back to life, growing to the height of a person, lifelike, with empty eyes.

Controlling a puppet is the same as manipulating a spiritual weapon, requiring the consciousness to be attached to the puppet.

Wang Changsheng used the method of manipulating the spirit weapon to control the puppet beast.

Under his control, the ape puppet took two steps forward.

This feeling is very strange, as if there is an extra self.

Wang Changsheng observed carefully and found that the actions of the ape puppet were not very natural. Obviously, the quality of this puppet was not good, but it should be able to sell.

At this moment, a chirping sound came from the spirit animal bag on his waist.

Wang Changsheng smiled lightly, opened the mouth of the spirit beast bag, and the spirit beast bag crawled out and landed on his shoulder, making a chirping sound, as if asking for something.

In the past two years, Wang Changsheng's life has been much better. Every once in a while, he will use the first-grade low-grade spirit grain to feed the double-eyed rat.

The Double-eyed Mouse ate a lot of first-tier low-grade spirit grains, and became closer to Wang Changsheng, often begging him for spirit grains.

Wang Changsheng took out a yellow wooden jar and poured some low-grade first-grade spirit valleys on the table.

The double-eyed mouse smelled the alluring fragrance from the spirit valley, and immediately jumped off Wang Changsheng's shoulder and landed on the table.

Soon, Erliang Linggu was eaten up by it.

Wang Changsheng fed it some water and put it back in the spirit animal bag.
