The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 477 Mr. Shen, you don’t have to turn yourself into a garbage collector!

It’s broken after repair...it can only be broken after repair.

Fortunately, Yun Kun was very patient with Shen Le's clumsy hands and broken repairs, and he did not argue or make a fuss, nor did he ask Shen Le to pay for it.

Shen Le guessed that it was probably because he had done many experiments and made many failed attempts in the process of repairing the wooden boat, which the little wooden boat saw and knew that repairing things was not that easy?

Or maybe, the items to be repaired are large enough in quantity, so it wouldn't be a big deal if they were damaged a little bit?

Well, from the perspective of the little wooden boat, it might not be a big deal if everything is broken. At worst, he can just go to the sea to fish it out again. It doesn’t cost anything anyway…

However, Shen Le did not dare to mess around. He had never seen these things that originally had spiritual energy but dissipated and decayed over a long period of time.

How to pull it up? If he wanted to pull it up by inputting spiritual energy, to what extent should he input? He had no idea and no experience at all.

Shen Le had no choice but to put down the things in his hands and ask his relatives and friends one by one:

"Boss lady, have you ever come across...something like this? Is there any way to deal with it?"

"Doctor Qin, have you ever encountered this situation? How can we repair it or save it?"

"Old Jin, have you ever encountered this? ... Can you help me ask?"

"@Gu Yulin, can you help me ask the Special Affairs Bureau? Does your repair department or spiritual material excavation department have relevant experience?"

He asked them one by one. Soon, all parties gave feedback:

"Yes! Those spiritual medicines and elixirs, if not stored properly, will lose their spiritual energy and rot and deteriorate. Repair? That's impossible. Who dares to repair something that has gone bad and make another elixir?"

Well, the boss lady has no relevant repair experience. Shen Le shrugged, sent a few words of thanks to the boss lady, and secretly wrote down one:
The boss lady has channels to get rotten and spoiled elixirs and magic pills. If you need anything to practice in the future, you can ask her.

As for now, should we wait for news from others?
"Of course I have encountered it, but I'm a doctor. To be precise, I only treat living monsters." Doctor Qin replied after a long while.

Moreover, he sent a very long voice message. I don’t know if he was busy or just not used to holding his phone all day long:

"Repairing the magic tools of the monsters is not my responsibility, and repairing the spirits of the tools is even less my responsibility. So when can you master your skills and help Miss Yaoyao repair her body?"

Uh, it feels a bit difficult.

Shen Le thanked him, and as for the repair of the Yaoqin, he simply pretended not to see it and ignored it.

Your Miss Yaoyao is not in a hurry and doesn't want to come to your house to ask me to repair it. Should I take the initiative to go to her house?
And it’s all to help you chase girls - but it still doesn’t seem very hopeful, the success rate is very low, it’s completely a self-paying form of chasing girls!
no way!

Doctor Qin probably can't even provide a channel for rotten spiritual materials. Shen Le crossed him out in his heart and continued to record and clean up the other things that Yun Kun brought.

Halfway through the work, the Alloy Boss called me in a hurry and called me via video:

"What's the matter? Do you need my help? If you have any metal materials, just give them to me. I'll swallow them in one gulp and let them roll around in my stomach. I guarantee they'll be shiny and bright!"

Ah... that's not necessary. Shen Le wiped the sweat off his face, put on a smile, and politely declined:

"Thank you very much... But I really can't use this for the time being. By the way, how did you manage to swallow this rotten spiritual gold and spit it out?"

"Just swallow it!" Alloy Boss answered without thinking. Seeing Shen Le's smile froze, he scratched his hair and said embarrassedly:

"You mean how to fix it? Let me think... Actually, just swallow it into your stomach, and then think 'fix it', and then your stomach will naturally start to move..."

It is indeed a natural born divine creature, working based on instinct without considering the operating mechanism behind the instinct.

——The Special Affairs Bureau is not very effective either!
How does the alloy master work? You can at least ask for more advice and apply this working mechanism to metallurgy.

Even if it is used in smelting magical instruments, it will be good!

However, now that he couldn't get the details, Shen Le could only rely on his imagination. He silently calculated in his heart:
I assume that the gurgling thing is your gastrointestinal tract. So, the work of gurgling can be divided into two parts:

One part is physical movement, decomposition + combination, kneading the metal into a ball and then unfolding it, similar to forging;
The other part is chemical movement, such as gilding the silver sheets before. Of course, injecting spiritual energy into it is probably also involved?
"So when you repair the decayed spiritual gold, do you inject spiritual energy into it? How do you control it? How do you make sure the amount you inject is just right, so that it can be saved but not too much and break it apart?"

"Ah this..."

The Alloy Boss scratched his head, and then he scratched his head again. Suddenly he raised his hand, patted his head, and shouted:
"Just wait!"

He rushed out like a whirlwind and disappeared. Shen Le was left alone, staring at the empty room on the phone screen, speechless:
"..."

Fortunately, Alloy Boss doesn't work as a live streamer. If he did, the live streaming company would definitely sue him at the end of the month:

If the anchor doesn't appear on camera, how can the live broadcast be counted? We must deduct it back!
On the other side of the screen, there were rumbling and ping-pong sounds. I wonder what the Alloy Boss was doing - maybe he was looking through his collection of treasures.

After a while, he rushed back like a whirlwind, facing Shen Le, and raised the half iron bar in his hand:

"Finally found it! Come, how did I save this spiritual gold? I'll eat it and show you!"

After saying that, he threw it into his mouth, opened his mouth wide, and swallowed it down with his neck straight. Shen Le's mouth twitched, and he wanted to cover his eyes:

Is it useful for you to "eat in front of me" like this?

What can I see through the screen? Your tongue? Or the movement of your Adam's apple?

I can't see what's going on in your stomach! You might as well stand under an X-ray machine -

No, the Alloy Boss's body is also made of a huge amount of metal, and X-rays probably won't reveal anything...

He rushed around with so much resentment in his heart that he almost burst out and hit the Alloy Boss in the face.

The Alloy Boss tightly closed his lips, his face flushed and paled, and there was probably a piece of spiritual gold in his stomach that was rushing around, trying to get out through any hole that could be drilled:

The Alloy Boss tried his best to push it back, and even spit out enough spiritual energy to return it to its original shape.

He held his belly with both hands, pressing and kneading it, taking a deep breath, and his legs trembled slightly.

Shen Le even saw that his legs were sometimes tightly clamped together, sometimes relaxed, and sometimes tightly clamped together again:
There is a hole underneath!
If it's not controlled well, the spiritual gold will escape!
Well, although the spiritual gold that escaped like this might have some smell...

After holding his breath for a long time, the Alloy Boss suddenly opened his mouth and a pure white light burst out of his mouth and went straight to Shen Le's eyelashes.

Shen Le leaned back subconsciously, and saw that the white light was caught in the hand of the Alloy Boss, tightly grasped, and stopped just in front of the camera. It turned out to be half of a sharp broken sword.

Seeing the shock on Shen Le's face, the Alloy Boss chuckled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth that could truly cut gold and jade:
“Did you see clearly? Just stuff it into your stomach like this, try to digest it, and try to fill it with spiritual energy. Stuff it until it can’t hold on for a while, and it will be fine!”

I didn’t see it. I couldn’t see it. You can’t put a pressure gauge in your stomach so that I can see the spiritual energy index in real time.

Shen Le was complaining inwardly and humbly asking for advice:
"So, what if the spiritual energy is too strong and crushes it? I was repairing something before, and it suddenly turned into ash because it was too strong..."

"Ah, this..." Alloy Boss was embarrassed for a moment. He concentrated on recalling for a moment and scratched his forehead:
"There's no such thing with spiritual gold! There's no such thing with spiritual gold! If it collapses, I'll rub it in my stomach and it will turn into a metal ingot again, right? If that doesn't work, I can still eat it!"

Okay... OK. Eat it. This last move is something only the Alloy Boss dares to use. It's a racial talent. You can't refuse it.

Shen Le bowed to him, and took the opportunity to hang up the video when a new call came in:
The Special Affairs Bureau called back. I hope they have more reliable news. Well, at least something scientific...

The Special Affairs Bureau responds the latest, but is also the most reliable.

As soon as Gu Yulin got started, he first sent three PDF files, all of which were works and papers on the identification, selection, and reuse of decayed spiritual materials by experts within the Special Affairs Bureau;

Then, there was a website address for a forum, which mainly dealt with spiritual material identification, spiritual tool manufacturing and repair, and spiritual tool purchase. He could register and check it out when he had nothing to do.
Then, I replied seriously and carefully:

“Generally speaking, we tend to preserve and analyze decayed spiritual materials instead of using them directly.

If it is used to make tools or medicines, and problems occur on the battlefield or when eaten, the manufacturer will be held responsible - unless the material is very good, they will try to add a little bit..."

understood.

When it is reproduced, it will be added as part of the raw materials, so there will definitely be a large number of other spiritual materials, and the spiritual energy they carry will penetrate into it.

If the penetration is good, these decayed spiritual materials can be "saved" and allowed to participate in the reaction, becoming part of new spiritual pills or spiritual tools...

Shen Le was thoughtful. He thanked Gu Yulin and continued to work hard, trying to dismantle the gift brought by Yun Kun.

Most of the gifts were porcelain, all kinds of intact or broken porcelain, with nothing special inside, no spiritual reaction;
There were two small boxes, one was a lacquer box, and Shen Le could not tell what the other one was made of. Both were softened by water, and there was a weak spiritual reaction inside, which seemed to be salvageable.
There was also a bunch of strange things piled together in a mess, which seemed to be spiritual weapons in the past...

Shen Le wanted to try to rescue them, or at least try his hand at them to improve his proficiency before repairing the clay sculptures over there.

Turning his head to look at Yun Kun, Yun Kun was shaking the sails and happily urged:
[Shen Le! Come on! Come on! Fix them all! I picked them out specially!]

Ah, this... was specially picked out?

So, if it fails to be repaired, will Yun Kun be disappointed?
Shen Le raised his hand and put it down, put it down and raised it again. These things can't be used for the time being, and I have to find some rotten spiritual materials to practice... By the way, Yun Kun, why are you still here?

"Have you finished your vacation? When are you going back to work? Is it uncomfortable to stay at home in a smaller size? Do you want to go to your exclusive berth?"

【Ah this...】

Yun Kun shrank back quickly. He was running back because he was unhappy!

He left everyone at the dock and rushed back by himself!
Although no one has complained to Shen Le yet, but...if someone comes over, he will inevitably be criticized...

At this point, Yun Kun decided to be the first to file a complaint:

[I don’t want to go back to work right away! I want to leave them alone for a while! They bully me!]

Ah, they actually dared to bully Yun Kun? Are these people so bold?

Everyone is on the Yunkun boat. If it gets unhappy, it will sink down, or throw people out. It itself will be safe, but all humans will be in trouble!
Shen Le's attention was immediately diverted. He touched the small wooden boat with concern:

"What did they do to you? - If you are unhappy with what you have done, just tell me. If it's not too bad, I will scold them. If it's too bad, we will quit! I will support you!"

[Ah... it's not that bad...]

The little wooden boat twisted and turned in his hands:
[They just don’t give me any vacation, not even a single day off! I’ve been away for a month and I don’t even have a single day off!]

sweat……

This, that, the vacation for seafarers is like this, no two days off on the weekends or anything like that, they go out to sea for half a year at a time, and then have a nice three-month vacation.

You shouldn't not understand this, right? When you followed the eunuch Sanbao to the West, you were away for several years at a time. You never heard of taking a holiday, right?
Shen Le touched the little guy and tried to coax him for a while. Yun Kun then hesitated and told him his real purpose:
[I want to install a teleportation device on the ship so I can send you gifts every day, but they won't let me! ]

There is no need to give gifts every day. Shen Le continued to touch it and coax it for a long time:
“The current teleportation device isn’t particularly useful, the one I’m developing while giving them the talisman is energy-intensive and unstable.

When they have successfully developed it, I will ask them to install one for you, okay?"

Yun Kun was finally calmed down. Shen Le also forgot to urge it to go back to work - it was needed to work anyway, and the people from the Special Affairs Bureau would come to urge it. After thinking for a while, he called Gu Yulin's cell phone again:
"Um, can you do me a favor? I remember when I was developing the secret realm, I seemed to have found a lot of spiritual materials that were already rotten and unusable..."

For example, for a house, rotten wood is the hardest hit area, rubble, stone foundations and so on are also the hardest hit areas, and as for the colorful paintings on the beams, those are the hardest hit areas among the hardest hit areas.

Since the Special Affairs Bureau doesn't really need them, and they can't be used to make spiritual weapons or elixirs, why not give him a batch to practice with?

"Ah? Mr. Shen, are you sure you want these rotten things? If you want to refine weapons, we have high-quality spiritual materials and can provide them at a low price..."

There’s no need to turn yourself into a garbage collector!

It’s really not necessary!

"I'm sure! Just bring it over as I say!"

It was a rare occasion that Shen Le asked for something, so the Special Affairs Bureau naturally worked diligently and tried hard to curry favor with him, not even asking Shen Le for points.

There are not many rotten spiritual materials in the White Mountains and Black Waters Secret Realm. However, when Shen Le first entered the Golden Triangle Secret Realm, he saw a lot of beams, pillars, and various other things.

As soon as he opened his mouth, within two days a truck loaded with odds and ends arrived at Shen Le's door:

"Mr. Shen, can we help you move in? Where should we put it? Is there a special warehouse? Do you need us to help you decorate it and add spiritual energy capture and isolation devices?"

Shen Le really didn't expect there was such a decoration. However, it was unnecessary to spend time letting them decorate it:

"Just put the stuff here. I'll just set up a spirit gathering array and it'll be done - well, thank you for your hard work. Put the stuff here, and the equipment in the next room..."

In addition to the spiritual materials, the Special Affairs Bureau also sent a batch of instruments. Shen Le watched them hastily assemble them, and after sending the people out, he began to work hard, referring to the instructions:

"First, select a spiritual material and put it in a special safe deposit box..."

Shen Le took the list and picked through the rotten spiritual materials that were delivered. He selected a wooden statue that looked like a statue of a god, but it was already dull and faded and was about to rot.
Wearing gloves, he placed the wooden statue in a special safe, connected the instruments, and began to take initial measurements and records.

First take a picture, then measure the real-time spiritual energy content of the spiritual material, and then test the various properties of the spiritual material. For example, weight, volume, spiritual energy conduction ratio...

And so on, all kinds of things. After testing everything, he reached out to the spiritual material and began to repair it:
The design of this special safe deposit box is completely modeled after the glove box in the laboratory.

People standing outside can reach into the box with gloves and touch the spiritual materials through the box, while ensuring that the spiritual energy will not leak;
The unique circuits embedded in the gloves can smoothly conduct spiritual power, making it convenient for people like Shen Le to input power into the spiritual material and try to repair it:

"Three, two, one! Start!"

He mobilized his power and began to input heat. The heat surged into the spiritual material. At first, no changes were seen, but after about a minute, the wooden statue suddenly moved slightly and its color began to change.
It became hard, moist, full, and its texture became clear. Shen Le was slightly delighted:
Yes, this is the right approach!

At least, for the wooden statue, a spiritual material that originally has vitality, inputting spiritual power can make it start growing again!
He patiently continued to input. His mental power expanded, exploring every corner of the wooden statue, sensing its power fluctuations, making sure that the spiritual power inside it would not be unbalanced;
Then, use the thin spiritual power to soak every part of it, let every cell of it regain vitality, and let it begin to recover...

Gradually, the rotten and dull wood turned into hard, solid, well-defined hardwood, and the smiling face of the god appeared on the hardwood again.

Shen Le concentrated his attention and continued to input spiritual energy. Suddenly, he felt an extremely weak but very warm force inside the wooden statue, which gently responded to him:
What power is this?
Is this... a power that the wooden statue originally possessed?

Is it spiritual power?
Or is it the power of incense?

Or is it the power of thoughts that has always accompanied the ships and generations of sailors, emerging from the waves and blessing them with their safe return?

He carefully stimulated this power and nourished it with the heat from his palm. The power was also very cooperative, accepting everything that came, and swallowed up the spiritual power provided by Shen Le in big gulps.

Halfway through swallowing, Shen Le felt a light spot condensing inside the wooden statue, getting brighter and brighter.

"and many more!"

Shen Le couldn't wait to withdraw his hand. This light spot was too bright, a little too bright, it felt like it was going to explode!
It’s okay if you blow it up, but don’t blow up the wooden statue I have repaired!

It was too late. Just as his fingertips left the wooden statue and he hadn't even gotten out of the glove box, the wooden statue exploded with a "pop".

It wasn't completely blown to pieces, at least the body was still intact, but the head, the smiling face, the crown and necklace on the head were all blown into sawdust, scattered all over the glove box...

Shen Le: “…”

Here we go again, here we go again.

It happened before, too. I felt like it had been fixed and was about to be fixed, but then it suddenly exploded.

So, at what point did I lose control?

At what step should we stop to accomplish the task?
He sighed and walked around half a circle, exported various data from the instruments, and began to study them.

The data is very complicated. Fortunately, the designer of the instrument probably estimated the cultural level of the users and specially set up a simple mode:
Shen Le pressed a few keys and the instrument spit out two large pieces of paper.

One is a curve chart showing the spiritual power index inside the spiritual material. You can see that the curve rises slowly, then almost flattens, and then suddenly drops sharply.

The other one is a waveform chart, in which you can see the unique spiritual power fluctuations of the spiritual material. At the beginning, it maintains a certain waveform, and then noise is gradually added. At the end, the noise suddenly soars.

"So, I just need to stop in time before the last wave of noise comes out?"

Shen Le played the video again. It can be seen that the wooden statue slowly changed, becoming moist, clear, and normal;
Then, it began to light up little by little, and glow little by little, and suddenly, it burst into pieces with great light.

"It would be best if we could see it with our naked eyes... Qingdeng! Lanzhuang! Anyone who is free, come over here! Help me keep an eye on the screen!"

All of the little guys came rushing over. Shen Le assigned them tasks one by one:
"Keep an eye on the spiritual material inside - if there's a sudden bright light, notify me to stop!"

"You look at this curve... When the curve is basically flat, tell me to stop..."

“Look at this waveform…”

He gave instructions one by one, then found a piece of wood in the spiritual material warehouse, which he suspected was part of the window frame, put it in the glove box, and tried to repair it again.

Try it, it explodes;
I tried again, and it exploded again;
Tried it again, and it still exploded...

Shen Le remained calm. The spiritual materials sent by the Special Affairs Bureau filled a truck with 20 to 30 large boxes.

He hasn't even used up a box of spiritual materials yet, but he already feels like he has found the way...

Don’t be afraid, just create as much as you can!
