"I'll give you this spine."

Ink painting of Da Fang Dao.

Ouyang Mu was flattered for a moment and shook his head repeatedly: "I can't have it..."

"Don't you want to?"

Mo Hua shook the spine in his hand.

Ouyang Mu was completely attracted by the spine, his eyes swayed left and right along the spine, and he couldn't bear to leave.

But he still gritted his teeth and said firmly:

"I want it, but it's not something I got from hunting monsters. I can't have it."

Mo Hua said: "Senior Brother Feng took care of me before, and now I'll take care of you too. Just take it, it'll be fine."

Ouyang Mu still shook his head, "No reward for no merit."

The ink painting was a little surprising, and the eyes were a little appreciative.

Although this little piece of wood is a bit stubborn, he has a good heart, has principles in doing things, and doesn't like to take advantage of others.

"Yeah," Mo Hua nodded. "If you don't want it, forget it."

For the ink painting gesture, the backbone of the fire demon wolf must be collected.

But seeing that the spine at hand was about to disappear, Ouyang Mu was startled and became a little anxious.

He struggled for a long time and said quickly:

"Senior Brother Mo, can I buy it with merit?"

"Merits?" Mo Hua thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's okay, but the backbone of this fire demon wolf, according to the general market, requires 800 merits. Do you have it?"

"Eight hundred?!"

Ouyang Mu was stunned for a moment, then blushed a little, "I... don't have that much..."

"How many do you have?"

"Just...three hundred..."

Ouyang Mu muttered.

Although he is also a direct descendant of the Ouyang family, when he joins the sect, he must abide by the sect's rules and rely on himself in everything.

These meritorious deeds were accumulated little by little by forging iron and forging swords for others.

I used some before, but now I only have three hundred left.

"How about I sell you three hundred?" Mo Hua said.

Ouyang Mu shook his head repeatedly, "No, how can I let Senior Brother Mo suffer? I..."

He hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Can I owe it first and pay it back later?"

Mo Hua touched his chin, thinking about something and said nothing.

Ouyang Mu thought Mo Hua didn't believe it and quickly assured him:

"I will definitely pay it back!"

"How can you pay it back?" Mo Hua's eyes were intriguing and he was persuasive.

Ouyang Mu said: "I will work hard to earn merit..."

Mo Hua sighed, "It's hard to earn merit."

Ouyang Mu looked embarrassed.

Merit is indeed not easy to earn.

Good tasks are all up for grabs.

If you can't get it, you can only do some low-level tasks and slowly save up.

At the same time, there are many places where the sect needs to spend meritorious deeds, such as various exercises, Taoist methods, weapon refining manuals, elixirs, spiritual weapon inheritance, etc.

When merit is accumulated, it is like accumulated sand; when used, it is like running water.

Most of the disciples' achievements are due to their ability to make ends meet.

Generally speaking, in the middle stage of foundation building, disciples can enter Demon Refining Mountain.

Entering Demon Refining Mountain, as long as you learn quickly, gain experience, and successfully hunt monsters and extract materials, it is not difficult to earn merit.

But if it's the other way around, if you learn slowly and fail to hunt monsters many times, it will only make things worse, and it will become harder and harder to earn merit.

Ouyang Mu has no confidence at all in hunting monsters.

And he had saved these three hundred meritorious deeds for a long time...

If you buy this fire wolf spine, you will owe five hundred merits.

These five hundred meritorious deeds were accumulated little by little by doing tasks on weekdays. I don't know how long it will take me to save them.

He was not sure when he went into the mountains to hunt monsters. If something unexpected happened and he couldn't earn any meritorious service and couldn't pay the debt, wouldn't it mean that he had broken his promise and made Brother Mo suffer a loss?

Ouyang Mu lowered his head, his expression changed, and he hesitated.

Seeing this, Mo Hua smiled slightly and said in a kind tone: "If it's not enough, you can do something for me."

Ouyang Mu was a little stunned when he heard this, "What...can I do?"

Ouyang Mu thought for a moment and said slowly: "If Senior Brother Mo doesn't mind, I can refine weapons...I can also forge swords..."

Mo Hua raised his eyebrows. He had waited for this sentence, and immediately nodded and said:

"OK!"

Ouyang Mu felt guilty, "But my sword-making skills are average..."

"It doesn't matter," Mo Hua encouraged, "No one knows everything at the beginning. You can learn and practice slowly."

He was born in Tai'amen and has an orthodox sword-making heritage. He is better than himself, Master Gu, and other Taixumen disciples.

Moreover, Mo Hua felt that although Xiaomu was a little dull, he was sincere and had a good nature.

If you have a good temperament but lack of ability, you can exercise slowly.

But if your ability is good but your character is not good, then there is basically no need to make friends.

Ability can be improved, but once the character is broken, it basically cannot be changed.

As expected, Ouyang Mu was greatly encouraged and said solemnly: "Senior Brother Mo, don't worry, I will not let you down!"

Seeing his serious look, Mo Hua laughed and said:

"Just do your best, don't feel pressure."

"Um!"

Ouyang Mu nodded seriously.

Mo Hua thought about it again and said:

"You owe me five hundred meritorious deeds. Let's do this. Forging a spiritual sword for me is equivalent to paying back one hundred meritorious deeds. I will give you the materials."

Ink Painting offers general prices.

The bounties within the sect are generally second-grade spiritual weapons. Because they take a long time, the refining fee ranges from fifty to eighty merit points, with occasional fluctuations.

Spirit swords will be more expensive.

One hundred meritorious deeds is considered the normal price.

Of course, these are all ordinary spirit swords.

The orthodox inherited "sword weapon" with the sword array engraved on it is much more expensive, but it is not something that ordinary disciples can make.

Ouyang Mu is only in the middle stage of foundation building and is still studying in the sect, so he definitely doesn't know this kind of sword-making skills.

It is impossible for Tai Amen to teach them "Sword Formation" now.

He doesn't need to know how to draw ink, and what he needs is not the "inherited" spiritual sword.

Ouyang Mu can forge ordinary spiritual swords.

When Ouyang Mu heard this, he shook his head.

"Is the price low?" Mo Hua asked.

"No, no," Ouyang Mu said quickly, "I usually give people 40 merits for forging weapons, but only 60 for making swords. One hundred merits is too much. I have little experience and rusty skills, so I'm not worth that much.

.”

Ouyang Mu looked at the ink painting and said a little embarrassedly:

"Senior Brother Mo, I will charge you sixty, and I will refine eight...nine spiritual weapons for you to pay off your debt."

Mo Hua was stunned for a moment.

He often bargained with others, but this was the first time he encountered such reverse bargaining, and he was a little uncomfortable for a while.
