Chapter 555

Er Gouzi successfully won a half-year ceasefire.

The next day, he left only a small number of people to guard the border and took the others back to Sanyang County.

On the way back, Er Gouzi really took time to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers for a while.

At that time, he also wore the clothes of ordinary soldiers, ate the same food as ordinary soldiers, and treated the wounds of many soldiers by the way.

His behavior of sharing the joys and sorrows with the soldiers immediately moved many people to their death.

And he was not just pretending. After he ate the soldiers' meals, he found that the diet was still too poor.

Most of the time they ate some ordinary rice or marching pills, not even spiritual rice, and even less meat.

Immediately, Er Gouzi took out a lot of dried salted fish and piled them up in front of the army into a small mountain.

And these salted fish are not ordinary sea fish, they are all rich in spiritual energy, eating can replenish spiritual energy and increase cultivation.

The soldiers were even more excited to tears when they saw Er Gouzi taking out so many precious spiritual objects.

Er Gouzi usually scraped the land wherever he went, which was still very useful. No matter what it was, he put it into the gourd, maybe he would use it someday.

He went through hardships with the soldiers all the way, and returned to Sanyang County before separating from the soldiers. He and Zhu'er first went to the government office of Sanyang County City to meet Huang Laocai.

During this period, Huang Laocai saved a lot of spiritual stones through black market trade.

In the future, when large-scale battles occur, consumables such as spiritual stones and elixirs will be used up very quickly.

Fortunately, Qingzhou is very rich now, and many things produced can be sold at a good price.

You can earn spiritual stones or other resources continuously.

After communicating with Huang Laocai for a while, he went to Huang Fugui's workshop to see the magic tools, spiritual tools and puppets he had refined.

He has more than 1,000 refiners under him, and the speed of refining tools at the same time is still quite fast.

Now these magic tools are enough to equip the newly added foundation-building monks under his command.

"How many puppets have you refined now?"

Er Gouzi is more concerned about the output of puppets.

The strength of his army is still a little weak. The training process of a high-level cultivator requires a lot of materials and a long time.

It just so happens that there are a lot of materials in hand. If these materials are refined into puppets, they can quickly form combat effectiveness.

"There are more than 1,000 puppets listed in total, but there are only more than 100 with the strength of the foundation-building stage, and the rest are puppets in the Qi-refining stage."

"All the puppets are stored in the warehouse over here. I'll take you to have a look."

Huang Fugui said, and took Er Gouzi to the puppet warehouse to check.

When Wang Fugui pushed open a door, rows of neatly arranged puppets came into view.

It was like an army waiting for inspection.

Er Gouzi walked to the puppets and looked at them carefully.

The workmanship of these puppets is generally rough, and the formation design in some places is not even very reasonable.

Compared with the puppets made by Er Gouzi himself, they are naturally far inferior.

However, the weapon refiners under his command are still in the initial stage, and their skills are not mature enough, so it is understandable that they are slightly inferior.

Moreover, these puppets are consumables when placed on the battlefield. They will be broken after a few battles, so there is no need to make them particularly beautiful.

When he first started making puppets, the puppets he made didn't even have faces.

These puppets, which are only in the Qi Refining Stage, can be used as cannon fodder, and can also undertake transportation, miscellaneous tasks, etc.

The puppets in the Foundation Establishment Stage are arranged separately in a small warehouse.

The materials used in these puppets are higher-level, and the formations used on them are also more complex and sophisticated, requiring a higher level of formations.

Anyway, refining puppets is a fusion of several crafts such as refining, formations, and runes to make them.

It is difficult to get started, and it is even more difficult to master.

"How many people can refine this kind of foundation-building puppet at present?"

"For the time being, there are only me and an assistant. The more than 100 foundation-building puppets here were refined by me and my assistant."

"Others can only barely refine some Qi-refining puppets."

"And the foundation-building puppets have relatively high material requirements. There are not many materials that can be used to refine foundation-building puppets."

Er Gouzi gave him a lot of materials last time, but they had to practice magic tools and refine several magic treasures, so the consumption was also relatively large.

The reason why Huang Laocai was able to earn so many spirit stones from the black market was that most of them were exchanged for the magic tools and magic treasures they refined.

Now that the Great Zhou Dynasty is fighting everywhere, the sales of magic tools and magic treasures are particularly good. As long as they are put on the shelves of the black market, they can be sold on the same day.

Refining magic tools, plus refining more than 100 puppets, those high-level materials have been almost consumed.

"Very good, keep working hard, especially for this kind of puppets that make machines, the more the better."

"As for materials, don't worry at all, I've stockpiled some."

Er Gouzi emptied the entire Dragon Blood Palace City, so he has no shortage of materials.

In addition to the Dragon Blood Palace, he has also visited several sea clans' old nest warehouses before, and has accumulated a lot of good things.

"Take me to the material warehouse."

"Okay."

The two walked all the way to the material warehouse, which was still full of a lot of materials, but mainly ordinary basic materials, and there were indeed not many high-level materials.

Er Gouzi looked around the warehouse, picked out a few pretty good materials, and put them into the gourd.

Any material that has been improved by the gourd cannot be improved by the gourd again.

The materials he picked up should have been purchased from the black market. If he put them in the gourd for a few days, the quality can be greatly improved.

After picking up the materials he wanted to collect, he waved his hand, and countless refining materials emerged, and soon filled the warehouse.

"Use these materials first, and come back to me when you run out."

After Er Gouzi left the warehouse, he looked around Huang Fugui's several workshops again.

He found that the scale of the workshop has been getting bigger and bigger. From mining, refining, to preliminary refining, and then to subsequent processing and production, his workshop can do everything.

Before leaving, Er Gouzi gave Huang Fugui another batch of pills and asked him to distribute them to those refiners.

Only when the cultivation level is improved can the refinement be better.

After leaving Huang Fugui, Er Gouzi was preparing to go to Shexi Village.

The snot bag brought a group of talented little geniuses and had been practicing there.

He had just left the house when he found that the snot bag had come to him.

"Boss..."

The snot bag stood in front of Er Gouzi with a happy face.

When this guy learned that Er Gouzi was back, he rushed over as soon as possible.

"You kid, I was just planning to go see you, but you came here on your own initiative."

"Did you take the pill that I sent someone to bring to you last time?"

Er Gouzi took a look at the snot bag with his spiritual sense and found that he was already in the early stage of the golden elixir.

Because his subordinates were short of manpower, in order to cultivate talents, he had recently spent a lot of money, took out a lot of rare resources, and found various opportunities to give them to his subordinates.

The snot bag in front of him was the one who benefited the most.

"Of course I took the pill given by the boss, but the side effects of that pill were indeed a bit big..."

The snot bag remembered the embarrassment after taking the pill, and did not continue to talk about it. The past was unbearable to look back.

"After you finish eating, I will give you another pill. Go back and refine it well. I will need you to show your skills after a while."

Er Gouzi took out another kidney pill and threw it to Snotbag. Then he went to Shexi Village with Snotbag to visit the geniuses he trained.

At the same time, the big white goose that has been living in his gourd recently has been fed a lot of kidney pills by him, and its strength has also improved by leaps and bounds.

Just the day before yesterday, Er Gouzi was studying the big crab Yuanying that he had obtained before in the gourd.

When a cultivator breaks through from the golden elixir to the Yuanying, the golden elixir will break and turn into a very pure energy.

Then this ball of energy will merge with the consciousness, spirit, and soul to become a new individual.

The entire Yuanying period is like pregnancy, cultivating this Yuanying.

After the Yuanying is cultivated and strengthened in the body, it can be transformed into the original god. This process is called the transformation period.

The big crab Yuanying in his hand has been wiped out of his consciousness, and now it is a very pure energy body.

When Er Gouzi was holding the Nascent Soul in his hand to examine it, the goose raised its head beside him, looking like it wanted to eat it but pretended not to take another look.

"Do you want to eat this?"

"Quack..."

The goose only quacked once, and then continued to raise its head, unwilling to beg for food from Er Gouzi.

"You want to eat it but you don't want to admit it!"

"If you are confident that you can refine this Nascent Soul, then eat it."

When Er Gouzi asked it in this tone, the goose swallowed the Nascent Soul in one bite without any hesitation.
