Longevity: Starting from the Talent of Infant Growth

In the afternoon, as tomorrow was a ten-day holiday, Zhou Ling finished the technique class at the Taoist Academy ahead of schedule and came to the Lu family workshop.

Master Lu was sitting on a stone chair under a locust tree, fanning himself with a cattail leaf fan, his face flushed.

Seeing Zhou Ling coming, Master Lu hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother Ling, the order we received from Duobao Pavilion this time is a first-level medium-quality storage bag."

"It is made of cloud crystal stone with spatial properties and the hide of the first-level intermediate monster black rock sheep."

"It took me almost four days to refine these two storage bags alone."

"There are still seven days to deliver!"

Master Lu said as he handed two storage bag tires to Zhou Ling.

The appearance of this storage bag looks similar to a hot water bag, but it is slightly larger and looks like a matte leather material.

Zhou Ling took the storage bag and reached out to wipe the sweat off his forehead.

It is the dog days of summer now.

In the workshop, the stove is slowly burning.

The yard is really hot.

Zhou Ling sat on the stone chair opposite Master Lu, poured himself a cup of tea, and gulped down a few mouthfuls.

He was familiar with Master Lu and the others, so he was not shy.

Then he said, "The storage bag will take another seven days!"

Generally, drawing a storage bag requires a spatial attribute inscription.

Fortunately, storage bags are common magical tools in refining.

Among the inscription essences exchanged with the Taoist Academy this time, there is a virtual Yuan inscription for refining storage bags.

It's just fourteen inscription patterns.

It's still a bit difficult to draw it now.

But, I have already agreed, no matter whether it is difficult or not, I have to bite the bullet and take it.

After thinking for a while, he asked again, "Master Lu, do you have a first-level mid-grade storage bag?"

"It's mine!"

"Can I borrow it to take a look?"

Master Lu reached out, took off the storage bag on his belt, and handed it to Zhou Ling.

Zhou Ling took the storage bag and looked at it carefully.

The appearance of the storage bag is basically the same as the two tools just now.

"This is a storage bag with two spaces! The market price is also 70 or 80 spirit stones!"

"The cost of the materials alone is almost 30 spirit stones. If you can successfully draw the Xuyuan seal, I will pay you 15 spirit stones."

"But there are only two tools, both broken, you have to pay for the spirit stones."

Master Lu said seriously.

Zhou Ling did not reply to him, and carefully checked the storage bag in his hand.

[You are observing the Xuyuan seal, primary observation +1, Xuyuan seal proficiency +1]

[You are analyzing the Xuyuan seal, primary analysis +1, Xuyuan seal proficiency +1]

"Fourteen inscriptions, two nodes, diffuse structure."

"You can draw the structure first, and then draw it as two first-order inscriptions with seven inscriptions, but the connection between the nodes is difficult!"

With the analysis, Zhou Ling had a preliminary drawing plan in his mind.

Seeing Zhou Ling fall into thought, Master Lu did not disturb him, and picked up the tea bowl to drink tea.

Zhou Ling carefully looked at the Xuyuan inscription on the storage bag again, and tried to analyze the techniques and key points of the painting on it through [Primary Observation] and [Primary Analysis] for reference.

Generally speaking, even a first-grade inscription master may not gain much from looking at the inscription in this way.

It is even possible that the structure of the inscription cannot be seen clearly.

After all, different inscription masters have different drawing techniques, and even the same inscription may show different forms.

But with the blessing of two talents, Zhou Ling can clearly observe the structure of the inscription, the distribution of the inscription, the lightness and speed of the pen, the slowness and heaviness of the pen, and other details.

And [Primary Analysis] plays the role of analysis and summary, summarizing the disadvantages for him.

It can be said that every inscription he draws is a good experience accumulation for him.

Normally, the higher the grade of the inscription, the more difficult it is to practice and comprehend.

Without a perfect inheritance and the guidance of a famous teacher, it is difficult to achieve anything even if the talent is high.

But Zhou Ling is different. With the gift of [More courage after more setbacks], the more difficult things are, no matter it is a technique, an inscription, or other sword techniques.

As long as you persevere, you will gain something!

After watching for nearly an incense stick of time, Zhou Ling handed the storage bag back to Master Lu.

"Can it be completed in seven days?" Master Lu put away the storage bag and asked cautiously.

Zhou Ling pursed his lips, "I'll try my best!"

Master Lu fanned the cattail leaf fan and reminded again, "Be careful! One tool costs fifteen low-grade spirit stones!"

Zhou Ling nodded, bowed to Master Lu, and said goodbye and left the workshop.

When he walked out of the workshop, he thought about it and bought a jar of the best black rice spirit wine at the wine stall on the opposite street.

He planned to go back and make wine for his mother as a reference.

······.

As soon as he entered the house, a strong aroma of spirit rice mixed with the unique mellow aroma of spirit medicine came to his nose.

The small hall was filled with the pure aroma of wine.

"Ling'er, you're back, it's a good time to try the spirit wine your mother brewed!"

Three ceramic bowls were placed on the wooden table.

The spirit wine in the bowl was a crystal amber color.

Li Ru also smiled and said, "Ling'er, come and try it!"

Zhou Ling didn't expect her mother to be so efficient and brew wine in one day.

Perhaps practice makes perfect, and her skills from the past are not rusty.

Zhou Ling put down the wine jar in her hand, picked up a ceramic bowl, took a sip, and it was sweet and fragrant.

The fragrance of the spirit rice blended with the faint medicinal fragrance of the spirit grass, brewing the unique fragrance of the black rice wine.

"Mom, this is much better than what I bought!"

Zhou Shan also smiled and said, "I've said it before, with your skills and this winemaking furnace, it won't take long for you to brew better spirit wine."

Li Ru smiled and looked at the spirit wine in the bowl and said, "But why do I feel that the purity of the wine is still a little bit off, and the spiritual energy contained seems to be a little less."

"I don't know if it's a problem with the temperature? Or is my spiritual power insufficient?"

Zhou Ling felt that it was more than twice as good as the black rice wine he bought.

But seeing his mother's serious thinking expression, he didn't interrupt.

Thinking about it, he walked to the winemaking furnace.

Seeing that there was still spiritual rice mixed with the residue of Lingyun grass in it.

[You are analyzing the formula of black rice spirit wine, primary analysis +1, black rice brewing proficiency +1]

Soon, Zhou Ling had an improvement plan in his mind.

The main problem is the ratio of black rice. The ratio of new rice to aged rice is 7 to 3, and the wine brewed is the purest and the spiritual energy is the most concentrated.

The mother's recipe is roughly six to four.

But he didn't know how to tell his mother for a moment.

He thought for a while and smiled, "When I bought this jar of wine just now, the shopkeeper assured me that they used 100% new rice."

Li Ru smiled and said, "How can there be a 100% new rice recipe? This shopkeeper is cheating an amateur!"

Then he seemed to think of something, "By the way, this ratio is a problem!"

He looked up at the night gradually falling, and couldn't help patting his forehead and said, "Oh, I forgot to cook when I was busy!"

Then he hurried to the kitchen.

The father and son continued to taste the wine.
