"Mom and Dad, tomorrow is the Sky Lantern Festival. The Taoist Academy will be closed for three days. When I return to the Taoist Academy, I will discuss it with the instructor and see if she has any suggestions?"
"If there is really no suitable answer, then follow Dad's instructions and ask Uncle Chu!"
Zhou Ling did not want to put too much pressure on his parents and make them so hard. After all
, he has a talent. As long as he can cultivate to the late stage of Qi training and be independent in the future, he can find a way to change his cultivation method.
Li Ru and his wife looked at each other and nodded. This is the only way for now.
Li Ru showed a relieved smile on his face, touched Zhou Ling's head, and said softly, "Son, although tomorrow is a holiday, your parents are busy and no one will accompany you!"
The Sky Lantern Festival is a grand festival of the Taoist Alliance, similar to the Mid-Autumn Festival in the previous life. Most people in Lingxia Fairy City will have a holiday.
In these days, in order to earn more spiritual stones, Zhou Shan will go to set up a stall to sell spiritual herbs if he has time.
This is much more profitable than buying from the pharmacy.
Li Ru is even busier when he is on holiday.
"Mom, Huzi and the others asked me to go shopping in the market." Zhou Ling nodded obediently.
Although he is only four and a half years old, he is a monk.
His physical fitness is better than that of ordinary people in all aspects.
Therefore, Zhou Ling can now go back and forth to the Taoist temple independently every day without Li Ru's pick-up.
Li Ru nodded and reminded, "There are many people in the market, be careful!"
······.
The next morning.
Zhou Ling was eating breakfast, and a black little head popped out of the door. The thief's bright eyes looked into the house and saw Zhou Shan and Li Ru eating. He
walked in carefully and greeted with a smile, "Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou, hello!"
Yuan Hu lived in Xingyun Street not far away.
Both parents made a living by fishing.
Now every morning, he came to call Zhou Ling and went to the Taoist temple together.
He also became familiar with Zhou Shan and the others.
"Xiaohu, you came so early, have you eaten?"
Li Ru asked enthusiastically.
While speaking, he stuffed a bun into Yuan Hu's hand.
Yuanhu swallowed his saliva. Although he looked a little embarrassed, he took it without hesitation.
He took the bun and stuffed it into his mouth. He took a big bite and ate it with relish, saying, "Thank you, Auntie, your cooking skills are really great!"
During lunch at the Taoist temple, Zhou Ling would see that he didn't have much meat, so he would give him some.
He also missed the food cooked by Li Ru.
"You guys go play, I've prepared lunch for you, put it in the pot, come back and heat it up, and you can eat it!"
Li Ru smiled and reminded.
Zhou Ling nodded in agreement, and then walked out the door with Yuanhu.
He had no interest in shopping with Yuanhu and the others.
It would be better to practice at home with this free time.
But Wang Xin was going too, so he, a lazy thug, could only agree.
Not long after, they met Wang Xin at the gate of the Taoist temple.
The three of them discussed and walked towards the nearest market.
Yuanhu was very excited along the way and kept talking, as if his family had taken him out to play before.
Where are the lanterns, where are the variety shows, where are the delicious foods...
He made a very clear point.
But Zhou Ling was too lazy to pay attention to him, so he asked Wang Xin where she wanted to go
. Wang Xin didn't know where to go, so she let Zhou Ling decide.
Zhou Ling thought, since he was out, he might as well go around and see if there was anything he could do to earn some spiritual stones.
So as to reduce the burden on his parents.
Since it is the annual Sky Lantern Festival, most monks have holidays, and the streets are very lively.
Red lanterns symbolizing happiness and good fortune are hung in every house, in various shapes
. There are various forms such as flowers, spirit beasts, magic tools, etc.
From time to time, monks perform various spells on the roadside. These spells look fancy and dazzling, but they are not practical.
It's still okay to coax children. However, some puppet performances made by puppeteers and spirit beast performances tamed by beast masters made Zhou Ling watch for a while longer.
With the talent of [Primary Insight], he could see the trajectory of the dazzling puppets.
And the speed of the flying spirit beasts.
[You observed the trajectory of the puppets, primary insight +1]
[You observed the speed of the flying spirit beasts, primary insight +1]
[Cumulative observation times: 208/1000]
Yuan Hu and Wang Xin watched with great interest and thought it was so fun.
Yuan Hu danced with excitement from time to time.
Passing by a pastry shop, Wang Xin went in and bought some spirit food pastries.
The three of them walked and ate pastries while walking, feeling indescribably comfortable.
Zhou Ling walked and observed.
In his heart, he also paid attention to whether there was a good way to earn some spirit stones that was suitable for his current situation.
But after walking for a long time, he didn't have any ideas.
Those who could earn spirit stones were basically overcrowded.
He didn't have any skills for other skills.
Now he has a skill that can be put to use, that is, finding and identifying medicines.
But this requires going into the mountains, which is relatively dangerous.
"I still need to learn some practical skills!"
Zhou Ling thought to himself.
After looking around, Zhou Ling felt that it would be too dangerous to go into the mountains to collect herbs and sell them like his parents.
Although he has talents such as [Crisis Response] and [Searching Mountains for Treasures].
But this only works within a certain range and cannot ensure absolute safety.
In addition, if he wants to sell something, he has no money or time.
Therefore, he can only learn some skills.
It is true that learning physics, mathematics and chemistry will lead to traveling all over the world.
This principle is applicable everywhere.
Zhou Ling thought to himself.
"This, this little rabbit, the rabbit lantern is so beautiful!"
At this time, Wang Xin stopped at a stall selling lanterns.
The stall was filled with various beautiful animal-shaped lanterns.
And Wang Xin was looking at a blue-white jade rabbit lantern.
The blue-white jade carved body shone with dazzling light.
"Little girl, this is a blue-white jade rabbit lamp, engraved with colorful inscriptions, which can shine in five different colors. The price is twenty broken spirits."
The middle-aged stall owner introduced it to Wang Xin with a smile.
[You observed the colorful inscriptions, primary insight +1]
[Growth talent, preliminary analysis: logical analysis of the structure of things to obtain better results. Achievement requirements: Analyze the inscription structure of twenty magic tools. ]
As his eyes swept over the rabbit lamp, Zhou Ling could clearly see a colorful inscription carved inside the jade.
Inscriptions can only be mastered by weapon refiners.
As a fire attribute cultivator, the best choice for the future is undoubtedly to be an alchemist and a weapon refiner.
However, the investment in alchemy is too large and the cost is too high, which is not something that casual cultivators like them can afford.
The initial entry of weapon refiners is much simpler.
Zhou Ling thought in his heart and gradually had a direction for future cultivation.
Then he pointed to an eagle-shaped lamp and asked, "What is the inscription inside this lamp?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "It has two inscriptions superimposed on the colorful pattern of flying wings. The price is more expensive."
[You analyzed the inscription of the colorful flying eagle lamp, preliminary analysis +1]
Zhou Ling pointed to other sky lanterns and asked one by one.
