Chapter 6 Prosthetic Limbs.

Su Qing's heart sank after hearing Ge Changyuan's words. Lingtian District is vast and sparsely populated, and most of it is outside the city. It is not uncommon for monsters to harm people.

For someone like Ge Ling to be able to escape from the monster's mouth is already a great blessing among misfortunes.

And being mutilated is not a big deal in the world of immortality.

The superior method is to use the regeneration technique of severed limbs to restore them to their original state, but these methods are only available to major repairers in the later stages of foundation building. Ge Changyuan and Su Qing obviously do not have the qualifications to allow such beings to come forward, and they have to pay Can't afford the corresponding price.

According to the method of the middle vehicle, if the severed limb remains intact, you can seek help from a spiritual doctor to sew the severed limb together. After several months of recuperation, it should be fine. However, according to Ge Dayuan's description, the monster tore off its leg and scared away. Now the broken leg , I am afraid it has been digested into dregs.

The inferior method is to modify prosthetic limbs, replacing part of the functions of the missing limbs with foreign objects. This method can be done by some puppet master apprentices and weapon refiner apprentices.

However, due to different techniques, the effectiveness of prosthetic limbs is also very different.

The weapon refiner treats the prosthetic limb as an independent individual and refines the prosthetic limb in the same way as a magic weapon. The prosthetic limb itself may not have many shortcomings, but the sluggish feeling when used always reminds the patient that what he is wearing is a fake. A prosthesis.

In contrast, the puppeteer treats the patient as a whole, and the prosthetic limb is just a part of the whole. After being installed, it not only seamlessly connects with the patient's physical body, but also has a certain degree of intelligence. If the prosthetic limb is not installed, it will no longer be possible to practice. , the prosthetic limbs refined by the Puppet Master can really compete with the regeneration of severed limbs by Foundation Establishment Overhaul.

In the past, Su Qing's main means of making a living in Lingtian District were repairing farm tools for the Lingzhi farmers, and occasionally making prosthetic limbs for the Lingzhi farmers who had lost their limbs.

At that time, he was just an apprentice puppet master, but because of his carefulness and ability to meet customers' imaginable or unexpected needs, coupled with his unique attainments in bionic runes, the prosthetic limbs he made were praised by customers who used them. .

No, Ge Changyuan came over overnight and asked him to refine a prosthetic limb for Ge Ling, which was proof of his good reputation in the past.

Of course, part of the reason is that he is now a first-level mid-level puppet master, and he is the only first-level puppet master that Ge Changyuan can possibly recruit.

"Ling'er has loved beauty since she was a child. The old man was reluctant to let her use those crudely made prostheses. He also asked fellow Taoists to come over. The reward has been prepared for the old man. Fellow Taoists, see if these are enough. If they are not enough, the old man can still get them. The old man's The spiritual field is worth more than a thousand spiritual crystals.”

Although Zeng Rong kept Su Qing at home for several years, there was a certain friendship between the two parties.

However, the friendship between cultivators is weak. After Su Qing was promoted to the first-level puppet master, the two sides rarely interacted with each other. Whether Su Qing still missed the old relationship or not, Ge Changyuan was worried in his heart.

Concerned and confused, he was afraid that Su Qing would not like this small order, so before Su Qing agreed, he thrust the money bag into Su Qing's hand.

Su Qing did not refuse. He reached out to take the purse and weighed it. There must be more than four hundred spiritual crystals in it.

This is not too little.

For a spiritual cultivator like Ge Changyuan, after working for a year and eliminating various expenses, he will only have two to three hundred spiritual crystals left. If he adds some farm tools and family expenses, there will be very little left for the year. This bag The spiritual crystals inside have been accumulated by him for many years.

But for Su Qing, going back and forth from the living area to Lingtian District, not to mention the risks involved, is just a waste of time. With his current efficiency in refining puppets, he will only lose money.

What's more, now is the critical stage for him to achieve the perfection of the Burning Secret Puppet. If others come to ask for help, he will definitely refuse.

But the status of Ge Yuanyuan's family in his heart was naturally different from that of ordinary people.

"Fellow Taoist, go out and wait for me to prepare."

Seeing Su Qing take the money bag, Ge Changyuan felt at ease, secretly thinking that the Taoist mother-in-law was right, this fellow Taoist Su is a person who values ​​friendship and loyalty.

Within a moment, with the help of the wood spirit servants, Su Qing tied all the puppet-making tools to the iron-legged horse and walked out of the yard.

The living area was quiet late at night, and few monks went out to avoid encountering evil spirits.

As soon as Su Qing walked out of the yard, she frowned slightly.

This life is no better than the previous one, and the theory of evil spirits is not a false fantasy of ignorant people, but a reality.

As far as Su Qing knows, evil spirits belong to Yin. Wherever evil obstacles and unjust accusations occur, the probability of evil spirits being born is greater. They follow certain rules. If they encounter one, they will get seriously ill or die.

Around Baiyunfang City, people gather, and the peace lasts for a long time. In addition, every six months in the city, an exorcism ceremony will be held, and evil spirits rarely appear.

But even so, casual cultivators try to go out as little as possible if they can't go out at night.

He did carry an exorcism talisman bought from an old Taoist, but with his and Ge Changyuan's low level of cultivation, even if they had the talisman to protect themselves, they would not be able to escape evil spirits if they encountered them.

In addition, Su Qing was even more worried about the robbery cultivators lurking within the hundred-mile journey between the living area and Lingtian District.

Since the disaster happened, Ge Changyuan only came to find Su Qing. All he thought about along the way was what would happen if Su Qing didn't agree, but he didn't care about the risks along the way.

At this moment, when he saw Su Qing holding the iron-legged horse and looking at the dark night silently, he was shocked and broke into a cold sweat.

"The old man deserves to die, but he didn't expect the risks on this road. He didn't dare to let fellow Taoists follow the old man into danger. Should I wait until dawn before setting off?"

Ge Changyuan slapped his head in annoyance, and after saying that, he squatted by the courtyard wall. Although he was extremely anxious, he did not dare to rush Su Qing at all.

"Install the prosthesis, the faster the better. The longer you delay, the worse the effect of the prosthesis will be. You can't wait until dawn!"

Su Qing put the iron-footed horse aside and walked to the outside of Tang Wanqing's yard.

Without waiting for him to knock on the door, Tang Wanqing, who was wearing plain robes and seemed to have been listening to the noise outside, pushed the door open and walked out.

After the two whispered a few words, Su Qing hired Tang Wanqing, a late-stage Qi-refining cultivator, as a bodyguard at the price of a high-end secret doll.

Although Ge Changyuan didn't know how much Su Qing paid to invite Tang Wanqing, he also knew that he did this for his daughter's consideration. After being moved, he patted his chest and said that he would bear the hiring fee.

Su Qing nodded slightly, ready to symbolically collect some spirit crystals from him at that time.

The three of them didn't say much. Ge Changyuan led the way on a short-legged horse, Su Qing on the iron-footed horse was in the middle, and finally, Tang Wanqing activated the robes and flew several feet into the air.

Along the way, perhaps because of the chaos caused by the demon cultivators today, the robbery cultivators chose to wait and rest for a few days, or perhaps Tang Wanqing's cultivation in the late stage of Qi Refining was enough to deter.

Anyway, the three of them had a peaceful journey and did not encounter any evil robbery cultivators, which made Su Qing, who was controlling the wood spirit servants to be alert along the way, secretly relieved.

When the night faded and the sun was about to rise, the three people who had been running all night finally arrived at the territory of Gejia Village.
