2208_ Free one piece

Without considering the spiritual veins, it is easier for the monks to move the location of the city than to move the spiritual veins, and there is no spiritual veins in the original location of Tongshu City, and the spiritual veins relied on here are near Tongshu City, so Changing the location of Tongshu City, it can still be in the vicinity of the spiritual vein, and can negotiate friendly with the huge Tongshu and its younger brothers, live next to each other, and take care of each other. Perhaps the popularity of the new Tongshu City will be even more prosperous.

After leaving the former Tongshu City and the current Tongshu site, I gave my brother a piece of delicious Tongmingguo petals, and asked: "The Suoxianzong held this competition, not only did they not make any money, but they also lost a lot?"

The old man disliked me for eating the petal stingily, he was stunned, and asked: "This is the Tongming fruit that you focus on refining in the competition? The taste is amazing."

Yeah?I haven't even eaten it myself.Although I can share all of Pei Bing's perceptions, including the delicacy he ate, the feeling I share this time is that although this delicious tongming fruit is a little tastier than ordinary ones, it is not enough to make Pei Bing roll and squirm the point.

Pei Bing: "So I always let you taste it yourself. Sharing perception, even sharing the perception of your Lingbao, is still different from personal experience, because you are only in the foundation building period, and the perception beyond your cultivation level is not real if you share it. .”

Blow you, I refined this thing, can it surpass the foundation-building level?

While questioning Pei Bing, I also put a piece into my mouth... Hey, this taste is a bit strange, it cannot be described simply as delicious, it is a kind of comfortable and transparent feeling all over the body, as if the brain is in an instant. Sober as if seeing through the whole world.

I asked Pei Bing: "Why is there no sense of sobriety in the eating perception you shared with me?"

Pei Bing: "Because I've always been sober."

Don't you blush when you say this?

Pei Bing: "Fake skin, not red."

I asked my brother: "After you ate it, did you feel that your brain was awake for a moment?"

The elder brother's answer was the same as Pei Bing's: "I've always been sober."

Me: "...what are you referring to as wonderful?"

Brother: "I can clearly feel its power flowing through my whole body, smoothing my still unsteady Nascent Soul power."

Me: "What does that have to do with taste?"

Brother: "Eat it and feel comfortable. It's an advanced version of the feeling of eating ordinary Tongming fruit. You have handled the chaotic power exchanged inside and outside the game illusion very well. Give me another one, a whole one, don't give me a piece of it. So petty."

2209_Look together

I said that I can only be stingy: "Most of them belong to Pei Bing, I only have three, and only one fur ball."

Brother: "... I remember that Pei Bing is still in a state of being overwhelmed?"

Me: "This advanced version of Tong Ming Guo will help Pei Bing straighten out his accumulated food and promote digestion."

Brother: "You just found out?"

Me: "But if it wasn't for Pei Bing's fuss, I wouldn't have thought that it could be refined like this. The finished product of Tongming fruit is used as the raw material for secondary refining. Pei Bing has opened up a new idea, and he should be rewarded."

Brother: "Can it be reproduced?"

Me: "Not sure. Taking this refinement as a reference, the second refinement seems to need to absorb a lot of aura, and there may be some other conditions, such as the aura must be very messy, such as a small helper in the Mahayana period."

Brother: "Mahayana period?"

Me: "Kunlun Xinge and Elder, I don't know what he did, but he must have done it. Without his foreshadowing, the second refinement this time would not be successful."

Brother: "Let me take a look... No, forget it, go back and find Dad, let's watch together."

Me: "Together? Aren't you going to find an apprentice?"

Brother: "It's not in a hurry for one or two days."

Me: "One day, two days, ten days, one year, two years, ten years, in fact, time can pass quickly. For example, I feel that the memory of the year I participated in the selection meeting is as clear as it just happened, but the reality is , Another round of selection conferences has been over for several years.”

The old man raised his hand: "Show off your memory?"

Me: "Don't do anything to my hair again. You haven't answered my previous question. Will Suoxianzong lose a lot if they organize the competition like this?"

The elder brother scratched his fur ball hesitantly, and replied: "Although Suoxianzong looks very embarrassed, in fact, what they have done is not beyond their ability or financial resources. Or, because They didn't do anything beyond that, that's why they looked embarrassed. Those excesses were made up by onlookers who wanted to watch the game and couldn't stand the chaos of Suoxianzong. These people who offered to help were not I will ask Suo Xianzong for a reward."

2210_ Wool comes from sheep

Brother: "We can calculate what Suoxianzong has paid in this competition. First of all, the most rigid ones are the phantom formation and the live broadcast formation. From the follow-up development, we can know that these two formations are very broken. It has not reached the boast of Suoxianzong at all, in fact, it is only at the level of Jindan, and it has not reached the peak of Jindan."

Brother: "In addition to the formation materials, the energy supply consumes the most, and whether it is recharged with spiritual stones or disciples' spiritual power, the part that Suoxianzong pays the most energy is only the moment when the formation is activated. The subsequent maintenance is actually mainly dependent on the audience, so the spiritual power paid by Suoxianzong is not very huge."

Brother: "Then, Suoxianzong still needs to pay prizes and some compensation to the participants, but note that many people gave gifts to the participants of the competition, and some people gave gifts to Suoxianzong, and some gifts were given directly For the Suoxianzong sect, in addition, Suoxianzong also has contestants in this competition. Although they did not get the top rankings, they got a lot of gifts. Although a large part of these gifts are curses, pranks, and punishments class, but, with a little modification, a bad thing can be turned into a good one.”

Me: "So, in fact, the wool came from the sheep. The Suoxianzong broadcast the game live to the whole world, and recovered the cost from the whole world."

Brother: "There are very few compensations for holding competitions in Smash Bros. The ticket fee alone can charge a lot of money. For live broadcasts like Suoxianzong, viewers have to pay them. Why do you think there are so many people?" Working together to maintain the illusion of the game so stable? Just because they want to watch the game? Some people do, and some people use spiritual power to pay for the viewing fee. For monks, paying with spiritual power is always better than paying with spiritual stones It’s more generous. It hurts to pay one low-grade spirit stone for a viewing fee, but it’s easy to accept paying the spiritual power that can fill three or five low-grade spirit stones.”

Me: "That's because the value of the spirit stone does not lie in the aura inside, but in the energy storage properties of the spirit stone itself."

My brother ignored my dismantling, and continued: "It will cost a lot to hold a decent competition in the mortal world, because the construction of the venue alone is a large expenditure, and it may also involve the coordination of traffic, the resettlement of nearby residents, etc. , but the monk's playing field does not need to consider any additional factors."

Brother: "The monk's competition field can be located in the barren mountains and mountains, and it can be built wherever there is space. The construction of the competition field can be done without spending a penny, using local materials and mobilizing spiritual power. It can be as short as a few minutes for one person. The arena can be built in a few hours, and the main body of the arena can be very simple, and it is enough to fool around with a magic weapon to add some decorations later, and you don’t have to worry about the danger of poor construction quality, you can save trouble.”

Brother: "So, the cost of organizing the competition itself is not much, and the biggest expenditure is often on the preparation of prizes. However, except for a few competitions such as the Medicine Sect Danxiu Competition, the prizes are very casual in the competitions of the Smash Bros. The things produced by the sect, if you pull a few weeds for you, it is considered the top prize."

2211_The safety of gifts

Me: "To sum it up, the cost of holding a competition can be more or less, the least case... is it not costing a penny?"

Brother: "That depends on how you understand it. A sect does not need to buy anything from outsiders to hold a competition. All materials and labor can be obtained by the sect in its own territory. If it is part of training, it is indeed possible. There is no additional cost, because even if there is no competition, the daily training and tasks of the disciples still require physical work and consume raw materials."

Me: "The Suoxianzong has provided a channel for receiving and sending gifts, but isn't it good for us to collect gifts in large quantities like this? Especially, some gifts are quite expensive."

Brother: "As long as you are sure about the safety of the gifts, don't worry about the others. If you are interested, you can write down who gave each gift, and return it when you have the opportunity, but it doesn't matter if you don't return it. The gifts in the live broadcast are all joking. As you can see, most of the gifts are actually worthless, and a few of the valuable ones are more malicious, so you don’t have to feel that you owe anyone. It’s not a gift you asked for, they are willing to give , you receive it passively, and you don’t have to throw it away if you don’t want to.”

Me: "It's okay, it's okay to leave it alone."

Brother: "Then remember to check the safety again after returning to the clan. The sources of gifts are too complicated. I am afraid that some things may look low-level and harmless, but in fact they hide deadly dangers under the surface disguise. You will be caught off guard if it explodes under certain conditions. Especially those gifts whose identity is hidden by the giver, you must be very careful, but the identity of the giver is clearly hanging, and it may not necessarily be the real identity. "

Me: "Sounds troublesome."

Brother: "It's very troublesome, so even if the audience wants to give gifts to the contestants in many competitions, the organizers will stop them, or say: You can give them, but please wait after the competition is over and you all leave the field. This kind of attitude is Beware of problems with the gift. If the gift is given during the competition, and the recipient is injured by the gift later, the organizer will bear more or less responsibility for the unfavorable supervision.”

Me: "The amount of gifts this time is so large..."

Brother: "Look at the luck of Suoxianzong. The gifts received by the top ten disciples will definitely be checked carefully. It is not a big problem; many casual cultivators are very cautious. When they see something that may be uncertain, they would rather throw it away than throw it away. Taking risks for the sake of cheapness; the gifts that mortals receive from Suoxianzong should be carefully checked, and most of the people who attack mortals are demons, with low cultivation bases and large flaws, and it is not easy to hide the truth. These three types have a very small chance of accidents , but the rest, the second- and third-rate sect disciples and casual cultivators who are not too cautious and prone to rash advances, are hard to say."
