Chapter 261 Danding Academy
The next morning.
Su Ruoli got up early in the morning and made breakfast. The ingredients were also bought from a nearby convenience market. In a supermarket, the price of ordinary ingredients is quite cheap. However, once it is contaminated with aura-related materials, as long as there is an extra The prices of suffixes and prefixes such as spiritual herbs, elixirs, and beasts' flesh and blood suddenly skyrocketed.
Almost all of them have to be purchased with credits, and ordinary money can't buy them at all... Even so, demand exceeds supply, and it was sold out by students not long after it was put on the shelves.
Everyone was eating a simple breakfast. Tao Rusu was a little uncomfortable at first, as if she hadn't had breakfast with others for a long time.
But after trying the craftsmanship, I immediately felt that there was nothing to be picky about.
"This is much tastier than the breakfast stall near my home." Tao Rusu sighed while touching her belly.
"You don't know how to do it yourself?"
"No." Tao Rusu said straightforwardly: "My housework ability is very weak." "
But since we live together, we all need to do the housework." Qin Xuezhao reminded: "We can be responsible for cooking, but you have to leave the cleaning on Saturdays and Sundays to you."
"Okay." Tao Rusu also agreed. Simple cleaning doesn't take much time, and you can have hot food for every meal. Hot food is a good thing that makes people happy.
When four people share a villa, there must be certain rules like a student dormitory.
For example, you have to turn in a certain amount of credits and money every month for food expenses.
Another example is arranging daily cleaning, etc...
It's not too much trouble to share it with everyone. Bai Yu is used to it, and Tao Rusu will need some time to adapt... She initially considered moving out, but After seeing the rental prices here, I gave up the idea and had no choice but to get used to it.
At half past seven in the morning, Bai Yu left the villa on time and went to Danding College.
He studied the student handbook in his hand and came to the bus stop. He glanced at the bus schedule and found that it was eleven stops from here to Danding College.
A student waiting for the bus asked, "Is this junior student a new student?"
Bai Yu looked aside, cupped his fists and said, "I am a new student, who are you?"
The person who spoke was a man wearing glasses. A young man wearing a white student uniform with a logo in the shape of a pill furnace.
"I am a second-year student at Danding College... Judging from your appearance, do you plan to go to Danding College?" "
Yes."
"In that case, why not let me take you for a ride." The young man said with a familiar smile. : "My surname is Cheng, Cheng Wanli."
"Bai, Bai Yu." Bai Yu clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, senior."
"You're welcome, I'm also a freshman here, and the basic transportation of Penglai College is indeed not friendly to newcomers. "The young man waved his hand: "Come with me, I just have time to explain it to you."
The two left the bus stop, and just a few dozen meters away, there was an open building that looked like an animal farm. Cowshed and stable.
But among them are beautiful white-feathered red-crowned cranes.
There is a student wearing the uniform of Yuling Academy who is taking care of five or six white cranes here.
"This is called the crane shed." Cheng Wanli introduced: "You can rent cranes here. They know the way and speak human language. If you speak to the hanging token, they will send you where you want to go."
"Sharing... cranes?" Bai Yu looked at these white cranes.
"Yes, it is indeed shared. Strictly speaking, it is leasing. Leasing starts from one day." Cheng Wanli said and walked up to the students of Yuling Academy. After paying the credits, the other party also came out with a crane and handed over the Yuling Order. The cards are handed to the opponent's hand.
The senior student in charge of the crane shed reminded: "Confirm that you have received three credits. The rental period is one day. Please return it on time before seven o'clock tomorrow. If there is any damage to the crane, you need to compensate it according to the market price." Cheng Wanli nodded
. He understood, and walked out with the crane in hand. The latter was indeed docile and made no movement after being touched. He was not afraid of strangers either.
The crane spread its wings, put the two of them on its back, and flew away easily, its target being Penglai Academy.
Baiyu himself has no flying ability, so this is his first experience. It is completely different from ordinary transportation. The crane's flight is very smooth and smooth.
"Penglai is a fairy island. Its layout is completely different from that of ordinary cities. It is scattered high and low. Therefore, the basic transportation is not viaducts, but cranes. Although cars can run, there are not many areas they can reach. On the contrary, As a shared mount, the crane can transport students to every corner of the college with ease." "
It's a bit interesting." Bai Yu stroked the crane's back: "Three credits a day is not cheap. Whose business is this?"
" Who else could it be?" Cheng Wanli was also quite envious: "It is also Yuling College that breeds cranes. This kind of crane rental service for freshmen, external customers, and family members of faculty and staff can provide Yuling College with considerable services. A lot of revenue."
"Every freshman has to use at least a lot of credits in this area. In many cases, public transportation is not convenient enough. This problem can only be solved after reaching the senior year."
Bai Yu asked: "How? Solved?"
Cheng Wanli explained: "Of course you have mastered the ability to fly freely...you can master the feathering technique and fly in the air at the fourth level of the extraordinary." "..." Cheng Wanli laughed: "Just kidding, it's
not
the fourth level of the extraordinary. level, but to solve the problem by raising spirit beasts. Currently, many students choose to start raising spirit beasts in their sophomore year. They can raise them through the infancy stage in about half a year. The growth stage spirit beasts are also completely sufficient as transportation tools." "All
students Everyone does this?"
"No, most weapon refining colleges don't raise spirit beasts." Cheng Wanli scratched his head: "It depends on individual circumstances. There are many spirit beasts in Danding Academy." "
Including seniors?"
"Me The one we raised is still in its infancy and cannot be used as a means of transportation." Cheng Wanli crossed his hands and said, "It will still take a few months." "
Raising a spirit beast also means providing a lot of resources... and it can become a spirit beast quickly. Isn’t it too wasteful to only use it for transportation, as it will not affect the improvement of one’s own realm?” Bai Yu asked again.
"Your question is indeed very tricky. It is true that for most students, their own resources are not enough. How can they feed the spirit beasts? If it slows down their cultivation speed, it will be more than worth the loss... However, for us As far as Danshi is concerned, this problem does not exist."
Cheng Wanli is obviously a talkative person, and he can't stop talking.
"The main responsibility of the alchemist is to make alchemy. Most of us are not good at fighting. We only study alchemy and cooking... At most, we can cooperate with the Yuling Academy to study the properties, origin and medicinal properties of the spiritual plant elixir." "So the combat effectiveness is good
. If there is no need, if you can cultivate a spiritual beast, even if it is only an ordinary grade, it will be enough to improve the Danshi's weak combat power."
"Besides, many of the spirit beasts provided by Yuling Academy can very well complement the Danshi's personal shortcomings... For example, the fire attribute spirit beasts can change the nature of the pill fire and help control fire; the wood attribute spirit beasts can help distinguish and astringent medicinal materials; there are naturally many benefits to this, and just hugging and kissing cute spirit beasts can relieve the psychological pressure caused by failed alchemy." "In short, although the initial effort is not small, the harvest is also huge
. , it is definitely a project with high investment and high returns."
Cheng Wanli has obviously weighed the pros and cons and made many judgments about this.
He advised: "If you want to raise and contract a spirit beast, you can go to Yuling Academy and have a look. Spirit beasts are good news for lazy people like us." Listening to Cheng Wanli's talk,
Bai Yu couldn't help but feel even more excited. Taking a high look at Yuling Academy, even ordinary students are full of praise, which shows that spiritual beasts are no longer rare.
It has begun the stage of popularization.
The focus of popularization lies in its cost reduction. Why do so many Internet celebrity milk tea shops die suddenly while Mixue Bingcheng is still alive and well?
Lower costs, lower pricing... This strategy can quickly penetrate the sinking market.
The lower the price, the higher its cost performance, and the faster it can be spread into every ordinary person's home.
An ordinary spiritual beast may be of little use to a high-level transcendent, but it is still a great help to a low-level transcendent.
Ordinary people are so keen on cats and dogs. If they could raise a spiritual animal at the same price, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?
If its cost can really be lowered to the point where ordinary families can afford it, I'm afraid... the sky will change in Daxia.
Bai Yu's thoughts wandered far away, and then he was pulled back by a word.
"Ahead is Danding Academy." Cheng Wanli said, "I saw you were distracted just now, so I didn't bother you."
Bai Yu looked around, and his eyes were immediately attracted by a huge thing.
Its appearance looks black, but the aura wafting out is white. The two tones, one black and one white, are integrated into one, just like the chaotic atmosphere seen in fantasy novels.
This huge object clearly looks like an alchemy furnace, and it is located in the center of the academy.
In addition, there are eight different small alchemy furnaces placed in eight directions of the big alchemy furnace.
If you look down from above, this terrain forms a complete Tai Chi Bagua diagram.
Bai Yu saw from the student handbook that each college has its own landmark building, which is a symbol and its core.
Chuanwu Pavilion in Chuanwu Academy; Seven Stars Palace in Tiandi Academy; Baicao Valley in Yuling Academy; Wanjian Mountain in Weapon Refining Academy... Danding Academy also has them.
"Is that the landmark building of Danding College?"
"Yes, that is the largest building of Danding College. It is also a huge alchemy furnace, which has not been extinguished for more than 1,600 years." Cheng Wanli said with a hint of emotion
. With a bit of pride, he said: "The Infinite Furnace of Creation!"
