Pulling the door lock open, Shen Yi pushed the door open and looked inside.
Inside are some simple furniture made of spliced wood, a very irregular four-legged table, two small benches, and a simple bed frame near the corner. Apart from these, there are no other daily necessities. Less than.
But looking at the dust on the table, it's light and thin. It seems that someone lived here not long ago, but I don't know where the owner of this house has gone.
Judging from the layout of the house, this should be a house used by hunters to live temporarily when they go into the mountains to hunt.
Withdrawing his head, Shen Yi turned around and walked towards Tsurumi Chuyun.
She put on a fur coat and stayed in the fire for a while, and her condition recovered.
As soon as he saw Shen Yi coming back, he asked, "How's it going inside?"
"nobody."
"Then just spend the night here."
She nodded, stretched out her hands and put them on the fire to bake, adding some charcoal to them from time to time, while Shen Yi cleared the snow on the other side of the fire, and then looked at her and complained: "What are you doing?" Are you so weak? Fortunately, you are still a practitioner."
Hejian Chuyun glanced at him, pursed his lips and said nothing.
Actually, she seemed to be following Shen Yi's tone when she said, "Sir, times have changed..."
The era when the Dragon Clan existed was hundreds of thousands of years old, and the cultivation system had been turned upside down. In terms of physical strength, how could today's cultivation system compare with the immortal cultivation in ancient times?
Exhaling a breath of white air, she took back her hand and stretched. When she saw this, Shen Yi asked: "Sleepy, do you want to go to bed?"
"no."
She shook her head, stretched, and then a bowl appeared in her hand. She was pounding something with a wooden pestle. There was some powder in it, which reflected a special light next to the flame, shining like firefly powder.
"What's this?"
"Yuluo powder."
"Why so little?"
"There's still some left in the bracelet."
"How much can you practice?"
"About...more than a dozen furnaces." Tsurumi Chuyun replied with some uncertainty.
When she was almost done, she took out the alchemy stove and placed it on the fire. Shen Yi regained her energy. This was the old witch's first attempt at refining the fine beast-enriching elixir. If she became proficient, her food would be upgraded in the future.
He watched attentively. It went smoothly at first, but later she had difficulties when getting the medicinal materials.
In the past, when I bought medicinal materials, I bought them one by one, and they were distributed in packs by the medicine house.
In Fenghe Town, the medicinal materials she bought separately, except Dingshan dew, Yuluo powder, and black juice, were all mixed together in a mess. Now she wants to make an elixir?
Okay, she has to sort the medicinal materials first, but the problem is that she doesn't have a scale now.
She subconsciously looked at Shen Yi, but what could he do? He turned his head to the side and stopped looking at her.
After worrying for a while, she could only pick out the medicinal materials based on her feelings. It took more than ten minutes to refine the seven medicinal materials for the exquisite beast-preserving pill before they were ready to be thrown into the pill furnace.
Taking a deep breath, she activated the elixir fire in her body and officially started refining the elixir.
She didn't know how long it would take her to practice the exquisite beast-enhancing elixir. It was impossible for Shen Yi to keep his eyes open all the time and just close his eyes to digest the red energy as he thought about it.
From the time when the old witch made the first batch of elixirs to now, the red energy in his body has accumulated to more than thirty units, which is enough for him to digest.
One person and one dragon stopped talking. The heavy snow gradually became lighter and stopped unconsciously. There was silence between heaven and earth. From time to time, a cold wind blew by, giving people an unspeakable sense of desolation.
I don't know how long it took, but Shen Yi opened his eyes and took a look at He Jian Chuyun and the pale white behind her. She was motionless and very serious.
Anyway, refining the high-quality beast-accumulating pill takes longer than refining the ordinary beast-accumulating pill, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and quickly closed his eyes and continued to digest the red energy.
But the next second, he remembered something was wrong, opened his eyes suddenly, and looked far behind Tsurumi Chuyun, and at this sight, his scalp exploded.
"What the hell is this?"
It was a piece of clothing, a dozen meters away from Tsurumi Chuyun, floating in the air two or three feet above the ground. The color of the clothing was as pale as the face of a dead person.
But to say it was a piece of clothing, it should be said that it was some kind of strange thing wearing clothes. It had no hands or feet, but had a head. However, it was not very clear in the dark. Shen Yi could only see a rough outline.
This kind of weird thing is the most terrifying thing to see in the wilderness, and we don't know when it appeared.
Shen Yi felt frightened and couldn't help but call out to He Jian Chuyun.
"Old witch, old witch..."
He shouted several times before letting her open her eyes.
"What are you doing? I still need to make elixirs, so don't disturb me."
"Look at the back."
"Um?"
Shen Yi raised his head behind her. Seeing that Chuyun was not a fool, He immediately realized something and concentrated on controlling the elixir fire. Then he took the time to look back quickly and saw the pale white "clothes" floating in the darkness. "It also made her heart tremble!
Looking back, I heard Shen Yi ask: "What is that?"
"Wearing a shroud, he should be a native of Yinshan Mountain. He often appears in the wilderness. I have heard its legend."
"How to solve this thing?"
"Just drive it away."
"Can you drive me away?"
"You give it a try. If it doesn't work, just breathe fire and burn it to death. I'm making elixirs right now, so I can't take my attention away from it." Tsurumi Chuyun said anxiously.
Shen Yi glanced at her and slowly calmed down.
No matter what the bullshit, all living beings are equal under the high temperature!
Thinking of this, he walked around Tsurumi Chuyun, looked directly at the Yinshan people, and while using fear and intimidation, he uttered a low voice: "Get out!"
The empty clothes fluttered, and the fear and shock seemed to have worked. The next second, Shen Yi turned his head right around it, slowly floated back, and disappeared into the darkness. He didn't know where he went.
Shen Yi stood there for a while, ready to step forward and take a look.
"How about it?"
"It ran away."
"Oh, that's good." He saw Chuyun and breathed a sigh of relief, but the evil spirit was scary enough. She glanced at the darkness in front of her, and her heart couldn't help feeling frightened. But thinking that there was Shen Yi accompanying her, she felt... I felt relieved for a while.
But when he turned around, he found that Shen Yi not only didn't come back, but was walking forward, he couldn't help but trembled: "What are you doing?"
"I'm wandering around." Shen Yi replied casually.
"Don't run around."
"Why am I running around? I'm just walking around."
He was a little worried. After all, the thing was too weird. Who knew if it had gone far? It would be too disturbing if it was still lurking nearby, so he wanted to patrol around. If he found that the thing hadn't gone away, he would just take a bite. The dragon's breath sprayed it to death.
A dead person is always safer than an escaped person.
However, after responding to He Jian Chuyun, Shen Yi felt a little strange. He couldn't help but look back at him, his eyes full of weirdness, and said, "Old witch?"
"Um?……"
"You're not scared anymore, are you?"
"I..." Tsurushi saw Chuyun being a little incoherent and wanted to quibble.
"Yes, I don't have one!"
"No..." Shen Yi looked at her, with a hint of joking in his eyes: "Since I'm not afraid, then I will walk around and go farther away to see if there is any game or anything like that. You are here This is a great way to refine elixirs."
As he said that, he turned his head and walked away.
"Don't!"
At this time, Tsurumi Chuyun was completely panicked and hurriedly got up. But at this time, the white smoke on the alchemy furnace quickly turned into black smoke. Sensing something bad, she hurriedly withdrew the alchemy fire and burned the entire alchemy furnace. Put it down.
Shen Yi was also stunned for a moment, and then ran over.
"Damn it, the refining failed?"
"No?" After calming down, Hejian Chuyun lowered his head and looked inside the alchemy furnace, but it was full of undulating elixir ash. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything, and he didn't know what the situation was.
Raising her head, she hesitated and said, "Why don't you take it out and take a look?"
Shen Yi didn't waste any words. He immediately put his claws in and took out three small black pills. In terms of appearance, they were obviously very different from the normal high-quality Yun Beast Pills.
No one knows whether there is an elixir or not.
"Try it?" He Jian Chuyun asked expectantly.
And he used his other paw to pick up one of them, threw it into his mouth, chewed it, and the next second his facial features became ferocious.
It tastes very bitter in the mouth, so bitter that it is so bitter.
The bitter taste lasted for more than ten seconds, but as the medicine dissipated, the fragrance of Yun Beast Pill immediately bloomed on the taste buds. As soon as it entered the throat, it turned into a large amount of red gas and stored it in the space of one's body.
However, this amount is somewhat unsatisfactory, it is only 50% more than the ordinary Beast Accumulating Pill.
Shen Yi glanced at He Jian Chuyun's expectant little face, then put his paw into the alchemy furnace to fumble, but in the end he only found a paw of black elixir ash.
There are only three beast-accumulating pills, so there are too many.
"How about it?"
"It's done, but not completely done." When he said this, the look in Shen Yi's eyes was a little complicated.
There is obviously black smoke coming out, how can it still become a pill?
"Oh." She nodded, a smile suddenly appeared on her face, revealing a row of teeth as clean as white porcelain.
This is the first time to refine a high-quality beast-enhancing pill. For this, Tsurumi Chuyun does not have much hope. She does not expect that she can refine a standard high-quality beast-preserving pill in one go. As long as she does not fail, she will succeed.
You can take your time.
She took out a basin of water from the storage space, and while cleaning the residue in the alchemy furnace, she said to Shen Yi: "Don't walk around, just stay here."
Shen Yi also swallowed the remaining two semi-finished high-quality beast-enhancing pills in one gulp, and then said disdainfully: "I think you are just afraid."
"Where am I scared?"
"Why do you have to leave me here if you're not afraid?"
Tsurumi Chuyun's action of cleaning the alchemy furnace paused for a moment, and he said nervously: "I just... still want to continue refining the alchemy. What if it comes again in the middle and you are not here?"
"What's more important, life or alchemy?"
"Of course it's life."
"Isn't that enough? If it comes, just give up refining alchemy and go do it!"
"But...in this case, wouldn't a batch of pills be wasted? Are you willing to do so?"
"Well……"
It seems that I really can’t bear to part with it...
"OK!"
Shen Yi could only nod, lay down on the side, and continued: "I can just stay here. Anyway, I think you are just being tough."
Seeing that Chuyun stopped talking, He simply cleaned the elixir furnace and quickly started refining the next furnace of Yun Beast elixir.
She didn't look at Shen Yi the whole time. After drawing out the elixir fire, she closed her eyes and couldn't see anything.
Shen Yi did not leave either. While mobilizing the red energy for digestion, he calculated the time it would take for the old witch to refine the fine beast-enhancing pill.
…
About three hours later, the second batch of high-quality beast-enhancing pills was released. Although only four pills were made, they looked much better than the first batch of high-quality beast-preserving pills. The taste in the mouth is no longer so bitter, and the amount of red energy provided is 90% that of the ordinary high-quality Yun Beast Pill. This improvement is undoubtedly huge.
After refining it a few more times, the exquisite beast-enhancing elixir made by the old witch can be sold as a commodity.
You can also say goodbye to the ordinary Yun Beast Pill.
But the strange thing is that after the second batch of high-quality beast-enhancing pills was refined, Tsurumi Chuyun stopped refining it and started to refine the ordinary beast-preserving pills instead.
Shen Yi looked confused and asked.
"Continue to refine the fine beast-enhancing elixir."
"No, this is too wasteful."
"Why?"
"This alchemy furnace is not very good. A lot of the medicinal power was wasted in it when making the elixir. More could have been made."
"What should we do?"
"I will buy a better alchemy furnace in the future."
"Okay, then you continue to make alchemy."
Shaking his head, Shen Yi narrowed his eyes again and stopped caring.
When He saw Chuyun, he nodded lightly and did not stop. He put the medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace and continued to refine the elixir.
However, she noticed something, and the eyes she had just closed suddenly opened again. Her face was full of confusion. After a while, she raised her hand, spread her fingers, and a small group of weak flames appeared out of thin air in the palm of her hand.
Startled for a moment, she looked at Shen Yi, but the other person didn't look at her at all.
Shaking her head, she closed her fingers and extinguished the flames in her palms.
…
Time passes inadvertently, and the sky lights up as soon as you open and close your eyes. It snowed all night, and the ground is covered with white snow. The clouds in the sky disperse, revealing the original color of the sky. However, the sunlight shines on the earth, but it cannot bring any joy to people. Warmth.
Shen Yi ate more than twenty Yun Beast Pills in one go, and then got into He Jian Chuyun's consciousness space.
And she took out the magical weapon of the beloved spirit and released Jueying. She walked slowly on the snow while observing the surrounding environment.
Shen Yi was focused on flying last night. She might have flown nearly a hundred miles away. She didn't know where she was now. Considering that there was a hunter's cabin on the mountain, she guessed that there should be a village nearby, so she wanted to look for it. Look, let's get a steelyard in the village by the way.
But after searching around, she couldn't even see the shadow of the village. The white snow on the ground was almost blinding her eyes.
Helpless, she could only take out her compass and walk all the way north.
The further north you go, the colder the temperatures become.
Apart from Shen Yi's voice from time to time and the sound of horse hooves trampling on the snow, she could not hear any other sounds. In winter, everything was completely silent. She was the only one left in the world, dressed in red and riding a horse alone towards the vast snowy river in the distance. Lopsided.
…
After walking like this for a day, night fell again. This time she simply set up camp on the roadside, expecting someone to pass by.
Birds in thousands of mountains have disappeared, and all traces of people have disappeared.
Obviously, no one will pass by here.
She looked at the map in her hand, feeling confused again, and it was Shen Yi's voice that came from not far away.
"Old witch, come and have a snowball fight."
She subconsciously turned around and saw that Shen Yi had rolled out a basketball-sized snowball covered in mud. Seeing this, her expression changed, she raised her hand and refused, "No!"
"Come on! It's so fun to have a snowball fight."
"If you don't fight, Snowball will be dirty!"
"Come on!"
"No!"
"Come!"
"..."
Shen Yi rolled the snowballs he made and urged the other party, but no matter how he shouted, Tsurumi Chuyun just didn't want to come to the snowball fight.
After a stalemate for a while, Shen Yi just felt bored and swatted the snowball away. The excitement in his eyes faded and he lay aside in boredom.
In his previous life, he lived in the south. He had seen snowball fights and other things on TV or various short videos. He was familiar with them and took them for granted. But speaking of it, this was the first time he had seen the snow scene with his own eyes.
As for snowball fights, he had never experienced them before.
He Jian Chuyun breathed a sigh of relief, put away the map, and when he stood up to prepare the elixir, he saw Shen Yi who had become listless. After thinking about it, she went to a place with lots of snow not far away.
Five minutes later, she came to Shen Yi and called softly: "Hello."
"What?" Shen Yi responded impatiently, but as soon as he raised his head, mud-covered snow hit him in the face.
