Bai Qiqi looked at Azu and begged anxiously, "Brother, could you please be accommodating? We really have something urgent to ask to see Master Jiang."
"Just call me Azu." Azu is quite nice. He doesn't seem to have any intentions. He has no resistance to beautiful women. But he can't make the decision in this matter. He said awkwardly, "I also want to help." You, but the master has given instructions before retreating to refine alchemy, we dare not disobey the master's order, there is nothing I can do to help with this matter."
Seeing Bai Qiqi's frustrated look, Azu thought for a while and then said, "Let's do this. You guys can find a place to live for now. I'll let you know as soon as the master comes out of seclusion, okay?"
"That's all we can do." Bai Qiqi looked at Azu politely and thanked her, "But I still have to thank you Azu."
Azu's face turned slightly red, he scratched his head and said with a smile, "You're welcome!"
"It's so inhuman to the opposite sex. I've never seen Senior Brother Azu be so enthusiastic."
"It's just that when he sees a beautiful woman, his face changes."
The two junior brothers behind Azu murmured quietly, with expressions of contempt on the former.
On weekdays, Azu regarded himself as a senior fellow apprentice and was always extremely strict with these junior fellow apprentices. It was rare to see him chatting and laughing with outsiders like this.
In the past, there were many people who came to visit because of its reputation, but they were all turned away. When asked why, they were all vague and did not say a word of nonsense at all.
But when meeting a beauty like Bai Qiqi, even a hard-hearted person like Azu is about to melt. It has to be said that beautiful-looking women have many advantages.
If only Qin Tian and Bai Xiao came, they would have been driven away long ago.
Just as Bai Xiao and the others turned to leave, a loud noise came from the distance, and with the loud noise falling, a thick black smoke rose into the sky.
Azu and Qin Tian looked at the direction of the explosion at the same time. Suddenly, the former couldn't help being shocked and said, "No, something happened to the master."
Azu and the other three didn't care about Bai Xiao and the others anymore, and ran back towards the place where the black smoke was rising.
Bai Xiao and Qin Tian looked at each other, and finally the former said, "Let's go and take a look together."
Qin Tian hummed and followed Azu and the others.
There are nine turns and eighteen turns along the way. Although the terrain is complex, it is very flat. It is really difficult to find Jiang Yi's seclusion if no one leads the way.
The six people ran for almost half an hour before they finally smelled the smell of burnt medicinal herbs. As the distance shortened, the choking smell became stronger and stronger.
Qin Tian and others knew in their hearts that they were about to reach the place where the explosion had just occurred.
Sure enough, after going around in a circle, several simple thatched huts appeared in sight. At the same time, a raging fire broke out in the last thatched hut, so that not much was left that had been burned. It was also for the purpose of putting out the fire. It's too late.
Not far away, a group of people were gathering around, not knowing what was going on.
Azu and the others ran towards the group of people. When they saw the person coming was Azu, one of them quickly waved and shouted, "Brother, you are back. Come and see the master."
Azu's heart skipped a beat, and he ran up quickly. The crowd made a way out of the way, and there was a middle-aged man with shaggy hair lying on the ground. His original appearance could no longer be seen because his entire face was covered in thick smoke. blacken.
The thick black eyebrows were missing a lot, and the robes on his body were still scorched with smoke in many places.
Azu helped the master up and shook him vigorously a few times. Seeing that he was still awake, he couldn't help but asked in confusion, "Master, what's wrong? Isn't he in seclusion and refining elixirs? How could he be like this?"
"We don't know either. The master told him not to go near this area during his retreat, so we heard the news and came here."
"Yes, we just arrived, and it looked like this when we arrived. It scared us to death."
"Brother, please take a look at how Master is doing. It's really worrying that he's like this."
Only four of these ten people have martial arts cultivation, and Azu's aura is obviously much stronger than the others.
He has been with Jiang Yi for the longest time, so he has a lot of insights into alchemy and treatment. Everyone felt a lot more at ease when they saw him here.
Seeing this scene, Bai Xiao was also shocked. The power of the explosion just now was not small. Some charred scrap metal and burnt herbs could be seen everywhere. Even the roof of the nearby thatched cottage was blown off. The place was a mess.
Bai Xiao waved his hand towards the thatched cottage that was still burning. Immediately, a gust of cold wind roared out. The remaining flames on the thatched cottage were extinguished instantly, and even the charred smoke disappeared.
A group of people did not notice the existence of Bai Xiao and others. At this moment, Jiang Yi's safety was concerned about everyone's hearts.
Under the prying eyes of Azu, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Yi was not seriously injured, he was just temporarily comatose. After learning about the situation, everyone was relieved.
"What on earth is this weird guy doing to make this place look like this?" Bai Xiao shook his head and walked towards them with Qin Tian and Bai Qiqi.
"who are you?"
The approach of Bai Xiao and the others aroused the vigilance of others, and they all stood up and asked.
Before Bai Xiao could speak, Azu explained, "Don't be nervous, everyone. They are guests who come to visit the master."
Immediately, Azu took a few steps forward and said, "Why are you following me? Didn't I tell you to find a place to wait for my notification?"
Azu's face was a little unhappy. If he didn't want to leave a good impression in front of Bai Qiqi, he would have gone crazy.
At this moment, from another direction, several beautiful figures shuttled out like elves, speeding towards Azu and the others.
After seeing the person clearly, everyone shouted "Senior Sister!"
Azu looked at the woman and asked, "Junior sister, why did you come back?"
The four women were panting, their faces were flushed, and their tall jade peaks were rising and falling. People couldn't help but take a second look. They must have been caused by running around so fast.
They are not very old, probably in their early twenties, and their appearance is naturally not comparable to Bai Qiqi's, but their tall figures and delicate faces are not comparable to those of vulgar fans.
"Senior brother, what just happened? I heard a loud noise from all the way away. As I expected, it came from the master's retreat."
The name of the woman who spoke was Xuan Ru. Her father was at the level of King Wu and was a powerful official in Gu Mingguo. It could be said that this woman's background was not simple.
It was precisely because his father had a close relationship with Jiang Yi that he accepted her as his only female disciple.
