"Damn! I knew it!"
Seeing the scene of black smoke coming out of the alchemy furnace, how similar is this scene?
Shen Yi cursed in his heart. He lost his patience and no longer resisted sleep. He closed his eyes and fell asleep directly.
At the same time, Tsurumi Chuyun also opened his eyes, looking at the alchemy furnace that was spitting out black smoke with confusion in his eyes.
She stopped controlling the elixir fire, waited for the fire to subside, took a branch and lowered the elixir furnace, clumsily took out the roasted black herbs inside, looked at them and fell into deep thought.
I obviously followed the steps recorded in the Little Alchemy Sutra, but why did it fail?
After getting up, she did not continue. Instead, she sat under the tree, opened the Little Alchemy Sutra, read the contents inside again, and then thought about something.
It wasn't until the middle of the night that she lifted up the alchemy furnace and regained her composure.
…
In the purest darkness, Shen Yi was in a daze for who knows how long, and suddenly he regained his consciousness.
"Finally shared it, but this guy seems angry..."
It's a strange feeling to suddenly return to the waking state from a dream state. Shen Yi still hasn't gotten used to it after having experienced it so many times.
He couldn't see anything in front of him, and he also understood that Chen Xingyun had his eyes closed.
I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, but Shen Yi was already prepared not to see anything.
But just as he was thinking this, a picture suddenly lit up in front of him. "He" looked at the guard beside him, and saw the other person nodded. When the perspective turned back, the book was opened, and a paragraph of words on it came into view. , making Shen Yi's breath stagnant.
He just glanced at it, and then large ripples appeared in his perspective and disappeared directly.
Very suddenly, as if interrupted by something, he returned to the closed eye state without any warning.
When he opened his eyes, he felt that it was Tsurumi Chuyun shaking him.
"Wake up, wake up."
Shen Yi felt a little annoyed and said angrily: "What are you doing! Sleep well."
"I think I've made it. Here, take a look." Hejian Chuyun in front of him stretched out his little hand, with a black pill in his palm.
He thought it was the best beast-accumulating pill, but he soon discovered that it was not. It was just darker in color, as if it was mushy, and not as smooth and lustrous as the top-grade beast-acquiring pill.
But this also shocked him, and he stood up to check.
"Come on, how about you try it." She said, but Shen Yi didn't say anything. He looked at the pill and then at the person in front of him, "Are you sure this is the beast-accumulating pill?"
"You'll know after you taste it." She said, passing the elixir in her hand forward, but her tone was a little weak. Obviously, she was not sure that it was the beast-accumulating elixir.
"No, why are you testing poison on me?"
"It won't be anything bad..."
"Yours is definitely not a beast-accumulating pill. It's all blurry on the outside. How can there be a beast-accumulating pill like yours?"
"I..." He Jian Chuyun hesitated, but the pill she had made now did not look like an ordinary Yun Beast Pill, but there had to be a tester for the Yun Beast Pill, right?
People cannot eat Yun Beast Pill. Although there is no real harm in eating it, the skin will swell. She doesn't want to do this, so she can only let Shen Yi give it a try.
After a stalemate for a while, seeing that Shen Yi was still unwilling to try, she gave up and simply said in a low voice: "Master, just give it a try."
Ever since she changed her identity on Huangbai Mountain outside Wuchuan City, she would avoid calling him "Xuanli" when talking to Shen Yi most of the time. A few times she would call him "Xuanli" when he wasn't paying attention, usually when she was feeling particularly helpless. Only when the time comes does one choose to call the master.
But even if she calls her master, she is always very stiff. After all, after being a eldest lady for so many years, it is still too reluctant for her to integrate into the identity of "maid" in a short period of time.
It was too shameful for her to call out the word "Master", but it was the first time that Shen Yi heard the word "Master" today.
He was stunned for two seconds, then came to his senses and said, "Wait a minute."
"ah?"
"You shout again."
"Why?"
"Hurry up!"
"Oh..." Tsurumi Chuyun thought about it for a while and quickly spoke.
"Master~Have you taken your medicine~"
"I'll strangle..." Shen Yi took a deep breath. The sound was so numb that it was unbearable to hear it.
It turns out that the old witch can still be like this...
"Yes, yes, use this tone when talking to me from now on."
"Oh...can we eat it?"
It seemed that Shen Yi was satisfied. She handed the elixir forward again. Shen Yi glanced at it and nodded. Anyway, for him, most of the things that went into his mouth would be converted into red. Angry, so even if the thing in the old witch’s hand was not eaten by the Beast-Yun Dan, it would not be a big deal.
So he opened his mouth, and Tsurumi Chuyun saw this and threw the pill in his hand. When the other person closed his mouth, she looked at him expectantly.
According to Shen Yi's own experience, although the elixir that failed to be refined could be eaten, it would be very bitter, so he did not dare to chew it and swallowed it directly into his stomach as soon as the elixir entered his mouth.
I didn't have high hopes at first, but to Shen Yi's surprise, as soon as the elixir passed through his throat, it quickly turned into a huge amount of red gas and was stored in the mysterious space in his body.
"Damn it, it's really happened!"
He didn't react on the surface, but he couldn't help shouting in his heart, then looked at the old witch and blinked his eyes.
"How is it?" she asked curiously.
But Shen Yi moved but made no sound.
How should I put it? The amount of red energy provided by the beast-accumulating pill made by the old witch is about 80% of the normal ordinary beast-accumulating pill. Although it does not look good, it should be considered a success.
But the old witch succeeded in refining the Beast-Enchanting Pill, so wouldn’t she have to eat rocks?
He hesitated a little and stammered: "...still, still...it's okay..."
"Then it's done!" After receiving the answer, Tsurumi Chuyun's eyes were filled with excitement, and his eyes almost curved into crescent moons.
"That's right. Is there anything else?"
"Yes." She quickly took out the remaining elixirs. There were five pills in total, all of the same quality.
"You made six pills in one furnace?"
"yes."
Shen Yi took the remaining Beast-Yun Dan and threw one into his mouth to taste the taste. The taste was a bit bitter when he first bit it, but it soon turned into the taste that the Beast-Yun Dan should have.
The old witch can indeed make elixirs, but her level of alchemy is quite different from Bian Daoqing's. The old witch can make at least nine beast-enhancing pills in one furnace, while the old witch can only make six in one furnace.
After eating all the remaining Beast Accumulating Pills, Shen Yi said, "How many furnaces have you failed in refining before?"
"One furnace?"
"One furnace?" There was a puzzled look in Shen Yi's eyes. She had finished refining one furnace last night when she fell asleep. She succeeded in refining it this morning. How could she waste one furnace in one night?
"It's impossible. I saw you fail just once last night."
"Oh, I failed last night because I failed to control the heat."
"Then you didn't practice all night?"
"Well, I keep looking for reasons."
"That's okay..."
"Uh... I have now refined the beast-enhancing pill, should you..." After hesitating for a moment, Tsurumi Chuyun finally focused on the piece of granite and pointed at it: "Put that piece Did you eat the stone?"
Shen Yi also glanced at it and couldn't help but said angrily: "What are you looking at? Since you have succeeded in practicing, then keep up your efforts and continue practicing!"
"oh."
He Jian Chuyun could only turn around and go back to the alchemy furnace, lift it up and tidy it up.
She looked unhappy and wanted to see the funny scene of Shen Yi holding a stone and chewing it.
Seeing her blowing on the fire and reheating the alchemy furnace, Shen Yi's eyes were downcast and she didn't know what she was thinking.
"What does Chen Xingyun mean? Is it him or them? They found me..." He glanced at the sky, and the words written by Chen Xingyun in the scroll made him uncontrollably panic.
"Made...where do you want me to hide? Really..." He cursed secretly, seeming to relieve his emotions in this way, but soon, he remembered the two people wearing clothes he saw in Wuchuan City. The man in black clothes and mask slowly calmed down from his panic.
Regardless of other things, let's assume that Chen Xingyun is looking for him, and what he is facing is also one of his potential enemies, because "he" is also looking for him, either as a person or as a group.
If Chen Xingyun can make the strong men of the Xuan level respect him, then his own strength should be at least at the level of the Xuan level. Even he needs to avoid enemies, let alone himself. If "they" find him , basically no need to play.
Buy a coffin in advance and put it on display.
Chen Xingyun's attitude was very strange. Shen Yi couldn't understand it. He had been hiding, so how did he know that "they" were looking for him?
And he didn't find himself either...
Shen Yi tapped his paws on the ground, thinking about something, and relaxed.
He glanced in the direction of the granite, walked over while Tsurumi Chuyun wasn't paying attention, bit off part of it in one bite, and then chewed it in his mouth.
The steel teeth of that mouth easily ground the stones he bit off, and he swallowed them into his stomach with difficulty, observing carefully.
The stone passed through the throat, but it was not converted into red gas. Instead, it was wrapped in red gas in the space within the body and was further wiped away, leaving no residue. During this process, the red gas not only did not increase, but also decreased.
"Okay, you can't eat this thing." He muttered in his heart, preparing to refuse this bet.
After leaving the granite, he lay down not far from the alchemy furnace and looked at Tsurumi Chuyun. She didn't just put the ingredients in the alchemy like Bian Daoqing did and then sleep aside and wait for the elixir to form.
During the process of refining the alchemy, the old witch was very cautious and attentive. She did not dare to leave the alchemy furnace even half a step during the whole process for fear of missing something.
Moreover, it takes a long time for her to refine a batch of elixirs. Bian Daoqing takes less than an hour to refine a batch of beast-enhancing elixirs, but it takes her more than two hours.
After waiting for a long time, Shen Yi saw her open her eyes, stood up, picked up a thick branch and put the alchemy furnace on the ground, and then used the branch to take out the pills formed in the alchemy furnace, which were still warm in her hands. Steaming.
Because she had not reached the pure level and could not release her spiritual power, she was not as miraculous as Bian Daoqing in getting the elixir, so she could only get it in this clumsy way.
"alright?"
"Well, that's it." She handed over the elixir, and Shen Yi took a look at it. The number of elixirs produced in this furnace was one more than the previous one, there were seven, and the appearance was much better.
Shen Yi opened his mouth and signaled her with his eyes.
He Jian Chuyun hesitated for a while, but finally threw all the seven beast-enhancing pills he had just made into his mouth.
"Don't stop, keep practicing."
"But……"
"What nonsense? Hurry up, your master, I'm still hungry."
"I……"
"Huh?" Seeing that she was still hesitating, Shen Yi opened his eyes wide, full of threats. Seeing this, Hejian Chuyun could only help the alchemy furnace again depressedly and start to refine the next furnace of Beast-Yun Dan. Shen Yi himself was waiting for the elixir to be prepared and eaten.
He looked at Tsurumi Chuyun from time to time, and his eyes were a little different from before.
This old witch is a talent. She actually has the talent for alchemy. It will be fun in the future.
"Come on, alchemist."
He muttered in his mind.
Soon another two hours passed, and the alchemy furnace was put down. Tsurumi Chuyun took out the eight beast-enhancing pills in the alchemy furnace, and looked at them with a happy smile on his face.
But she didn't laugh for long, and Shen Yi came after smelling the smell: "You are laughing so happily, are you eating bee poop?"
The words she spoke made her mood even lower. Before she could speak, Shen Yi snatched the eight Beast Presence Pills in her hand.
"you……"
Shen Yi took a look and found that the quality of these beast-accumulating pills was extremely close to the ordinary ordinary beast-accumulating pills. No wonder the old witch was so happy.
After eating all the beast-enhancing pills in his stomach, he looked at Tsurumi Chuyun and said dissatisfied: "What do you look like?"
"You're so annoying!"
"I'm annoyed?"
"Yes!" He Jian Chuyun's face was also displeased. From last night to now, her alchemy speed has obviously improved a lot. She thought she would be praised by Shen Yi, but she didn't expect him to deserve a beating so much. No face given at all.
You can't hold grudges like this, right?
If it weren't for him, I wouldn't know how to make elixirs.
"What's bothering me? Are you sorry?"
"What's wrong with me?"
"Look at your speed. It takes you so long to refine a furnace of elixirs. Look at others. It takes half an hour to refine a furnace of beast-enhancing elixirs. Look at you again. It takes more than an hour! You can even produce less than others. , you still have the nerve to laugh there?"
"I...I have just become an alchemist, which is already very good." She retorted, but Shen Yi was very disdainful.
"Come on, your efficiency and ability say that you are very good. Hurry up and continue practicing. If it doesn't work, I will lend you some money to buy another alchemy furnace and refine two furnaces at once."
"You're going too far!"
"What, you want me to push you to the ground and rub you?"
"In no mood……"
"If you don't want me, just keep practicing." After saying that, Shen Yi lay down comfortably on the ground, leaving He Jian Chuyun alone looking at him with an angry look on his face.
After looking away, she said nothing again.
There is no other way. Apart from the old witch, the only alchemist Shen Yi knows so far is Bian Daoqing. He has never seen any other alchemists. He would subconsciously take the novice Tsurumi Chuyun to make alchemy with an experienced alchemist like Bian Daoqing. Compared with teachers, it's better not to compare. When compared, the gap between the two sides is simply unbearable to look at.
But how could he know that an alchemist who would be able to refine decent elixirs soon after he realized the elixir fire would be such a monster!
If there were other alchemists here who had been in the industry for a long time, they might not be able to help but hang him up and beat him up after hearing what Shen Yi said.
But unfortunately, there is no one else here, and no one cares about how aggrieved Tsurumi Chuyun feels. (End of chapter)
