Chapter 100 Elder Yu (3rd Update)
After that, every now and then, someone would come to Mo Shan and ask Mo Hua to draw a formation. And they all drew an iron formation on the rattan armor.
Mo Shan was the one who handled all this, and Mo Hua only had to draw the formation, which was not too troublesome, and there was no need to show off.
The iron formation only had six formation patterns, which was not difficult for Mo Hua, and it was very fast to draw. Occasionally, someone asked him to draw it, and he didn't waste much time.
Drawing an iron formation could get five spirit stones and half a bottle of spirit ink.
Mo Hua drew for a while and saved some spirit stones and spirit ink, but unfortunately the spirit ink was of gold and stone attributes, so it could only be used to draw gold formations, and could not be used for other formations.
The iron formation only contained six formation patterns, which was suitable for cultivators in the middle stage of refining equipment, and basically only novice demon hunters used it.
A cultivator in the late stage of Qi refining like Mo Shan could not use it at all. In front of a late-stage first-grade monster, even a rattan armor with an iron armor array is as good as paper, not much stronger.
But among monster hunters, the majority are in the middle stage of Qi Refining, and new cultivators become monster hunters every year. These monster hunters also need iron armor arrays the most.
Although the strength of the iron armor array can only block the monster's attack once more, but blocking one more attack often means the difference between a minor injury and a serious injury, or even the difference between life and death.
Mo Hua would like to draw more iron armor arrays, so that young monster hunters like Da Hu can get less injured.
For ordinary casual cultivators, they can still bear a minor injury, but it is very difficult to live with a serious injury, and if they die unfortunately, it is basically a disaster for the whole family.
Among the monster hunters in Tongxian City, only a few have friendships with Mo Shan, and most monster hunters will not specially ask someone to draw a formation, because the formation is difficult to draw, the formation master is difficult to hire, and they can't afford the spirit stone. Therefore, there are not many people who really ask Mo Hua to draw an armored formation.
That day, after dinner, Mo Hua was reading a formation book in the house. After a while, he heard someone coming. Mo Shan was very enthusiastic to greet the guests, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
Mo Shan was usually generous and had many friends, but it was the first time that Mo Hua saw such enthusiasm.
After a while, Mo Shan called Mo Hua and asked him to come and meet the guests.
Mo Hua lifted the door curtain and saw a monk with a long beard and a long age, sitting upright on the wooden chair in the middle. This monk with a long beard was wearing the clothes of an ordinary demon hunter. He looked serious and intimidating without anger. He didn't look easy to get along with.
Mo Shan said: "This is Elder Yu, Hua'er, say hello to Elder Yu."
Elder Yu? The elder of the Demon Hunting Hall?
Mo Hua politely said hello, and then he realized that the elder Yu in front of him had a strong aura and a faint sense of oppression. Mo Hua used his spiritual sense to secretly peek, but found that his spiritual sense could not see anything. He could only vaguely feel that there was a person sitting there.
When Mo Hua's spiritual sense was peeping, Elder Yu's eyes were slightly bright and he glanced at Mo Hua.
Foundation Establishment cultivator! And he should not be an ordinary foundation establishment cultivator!
His spiritual sense alone is much stronger than Mo Hua!
Mo Shan touched Mo Hua's head and said, "Hua'er, Elder Yu wants to see you for something. You two can talk. I'll go to the front to help your mother clean up."
"What does Elder Yu want to see me for?"
Mo Hua was a little confused, but nodded.
After Mo Shan got up and left, Elder Yu got straight to the point:
"I heard from Mo Shan that you can draw an armored formation?"
Elder Yu's voice was a little hoarse and a little stern, which should be a habit formed in daily life.
"Yes." Mo Hua said.
Elder Yu nodded slightly, "That's good. I have something here that I want to talk to you about."
"Elder, please speak."
Elder Yu nodded secretly. He had heard that Mo Shan's son was already a formation master at a young age, but he didn't believe it and thought it was too outrageous.
Later, more people said this, and he believed it a little, but he also felt from the bottom of his heart that young and talented people must be arrogant because of their talents, especially formation masters. The formation masters he had met were all arrogant. Regardless of their abilities, their tempers were bigger than each other.
He didn't have a good impression of Mo Hua at first, but now he found that Mo Hua was pretty and cute, and very polite, and his expression eased a lot.
"I plan to ask you to help draw a batch of formations, all iron armor formations, drawn on rattan armor. When the monster hunting ceremony comes, give each of the young monster hunters a set, so that they can go into the mountains to hunt monsters, and there will be some protection."
Mo Hua suddenly realized that after a period of time, it would be the monster hunting ceremony, and then a group of young monks would become monster hunters.
Elder Yu is an elder of the Demon Hunting Hall. He has to uphold the rules of the demon hunters and protect the safety of the demon hunters, especially those young demon hunters who are new and have not seen the ferocious appearance of demon beasts. They are newcomers who need protection now, and in twenty or thirty years, they may be the backbone of the demon hunters.
"How many sets do you want?"
"About a hundred sets." Elder Yu said.
"A hundred sets..."
Mo Hua was surprised. This is enough for him to draw for a while.
"Is it okay?" Elder Yu asked tentatively.
Mo Hua hesitated for a moment, "When do you plan to get these formations?"
Elder Yu thought for a while and said, "Before the Demon Hunting Festival, there should be three months left."
Three months is plenty of time. Mo Hua nodded and said, "No problem."
Elder Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He saw that Mo Hua's realm was low, his spiritual awareness was limited, and his concentration might not be enough. He was worried that Mo Hua would not be able to finish drawing so many formations within three months.
At this time, seeing that Mo Hua was confident and didn't seem to be lying, I felt relieved.
Even if I couldn't finish the painting in the end, it would be good if I could finish 70% or 80%.
Elder Yu hesitated, thought for a while, and said:
"I heard from Mo Shan that you only charge five spirit stones for a set of iron armor formation when you draw formations for others. These cultivators have a friendship with your father, so you charge less spirit stones, which is reasonable. But for these 100 formations, I won't talk about these friendships. I will give you eight spirit stones for each set of iron armor formation. What do you think?"
Eight spirit stones are not many. For a formation master, his spiritual awareness is limited, and the formations he can draw every day are also limited. Naturally, he hopes that the price of the formation he draws is as high as possible.
Normally, this price is not enough to invite a formation master to draw a formation.
But this is the limit for Elder Yu. The monster hunters are a big business, but the whole family is poor and independent cultivators. Everything depends on him, and everything needs spirit stones. These eight spirit stones are the highest price he can offer.
"Eight spirit stones..." Mo Hua frowned.
Elder Yu saw Mo Hua frowning, his expression did not change, but his heart was a little cold.
Array Master is really not easy to deal with.
Elder Yu said silently in his heart.
