"Look, it's Mr. Liu Zhihuan, the alchemy wizard of the Liu family."
"Wow, Mr. Liu is here too. He is the favorite to win this alchemy competition."
"Tsk, tsk, the Bliss Pill Pavilion is generous in its dealings. Who can withstand this by spending two batches of Star Chasing Pill ingredients just to make a friend?"
"I also want to make friends with Paradise Dange."
The crowd of onlookers followed the voice and found that the speaker was Liu Zhihuan, and they immediately started talking.
Those family members who also wanted to make friends with Zhang Xiaozu felt a sense of powerlessness in their hearts when they heard Liu Zhihuan openly throwing away the medicinal materials for the Star Chasing Pill. They felt that Zhang Xiaozu could not do anything after accepting Liu Zhihuan's generous gift. Look up to them.
"Thank you very much for your kindness, young master." Zhang Xiaopou bowed his hands in salute to Liu Zhihuan, "But I will not be rewarded for my merits, so I accept your kindness with my heart."
"Young Master Zhang, you are wrong." Liu Zhihuan waved his hand.
Then he walked towards Zhang Xiaopou, and the crowd blocking him automatically moved out of the way.
Zhang Xiaozu cast a questioning look at him.
Liu Zhihuan stopped three steps in front of Zhang Xiaopou and said: "Master Zhang is refining elixirs here. I happen to know a little about alchemy, so I stopped to watch curiously, and I was immersed in it without realizing it. There was an explosion just now. Only then did I suddenly wake up. I was frightened but also overjoyed, because this observation has inspired me a lot and benefited me a lot. Therefore, what Mr. Zhang said about "no reward without merit" is wrong. "
Zhang Xiaozhu replied: "My alchemy skills are mediocre. It's good that I didn't make the young master laugh out loud, but I don't dare to take credit for this."
"Young Master Zhang is too modest. I have already ordered someone to get the medicinal materials, so please don't refuse anymore." Liu Zhihuan could not tolerate Zhang Xiaopu's refusal, and then changed the subject and bowed to Zhang Xiaopu: "Let's get to know each other formally. I'm the Liu family. Baoliu Zhihuan."
He winked at a follower, who immediately understood what he meant, turned around and ran towards the Paradise Pill Pavilion to get the medicinal materials.
Zhang Xiaozu bowed and replied: "It turns out that this is Young Master Liu, a prodigy in alchemy from Liujiabao. I have admired his name for a long time, but today I can see his true appearance. He is really handsome, handsome and graceful. I am from the south, Zhang Dayong."
"I've admired you for a long time." Liu Zhihuan replied politely.
But he regretted it as soon as he said it, because he still didn't know what sect Zhang Xiaozu came from, so he couldn't ask this question again after "having admired him for a long time". It would be too embarrassing, so he had to give up.
Then he stared at the tiger picture on Zhang Xiaopou's face and asked, "What is this pattern on Mr. Zhang's face?"
"This..." Zhang Xiaozhu said with shame, and hesitantly replied: "Last night I was wandering on the street and saw a strange man painting people's faces on the side of the road. It was lifelike and very interesting, so I tried it, but unexpectedly... It’s easy to wash off and make Young Master Liu laugh.”
"Ha ha…"
"To be honest, Brother Zhang, I have tried it before and it was quite interesting."
Liu Zhihuan laughed.
Accompanied by this hearty laughter, he changed the title of Zhang Xiaopou from "Mr. Zhang" to "Brother Zhang", subtly bringing the relationship closer.
There was also some laughter in the crowd, which showed that many people had tried it.
"I heard people talking around earlier that Brother Zhang wanted to open a Dan Pavilion in Paradise City. Is this possible?" Liu Zhihuan asked.
Zhang Xiaozhu nodded and replied: "I do have such an idea, but it has not been decided yet. When the decision is made one day, I will definitely visit the Paradise Dan Pavilion to ask for my experience and listen to the teachings."
"It's easy to talk about."
"Brother Zhang, if you have any difficulties, just ask, and the Paradise Dan Pavilion will definitely help you."
Liu Zhihuan said cheerfully.
He is not worried at all that Zhang Xiaozu opening a Dan Pavilion in Paradise City will take away the business of Paradise Dan Pavilion, because the huge scale of Paradise Dan Pavilion cannot be shaken by ordinary small shops.
But the other people in the Dan Pavilion all had a bitter look on their faces after hearing this, thinking that if Zhang Xiaozu could get the help from the Paradise Dan Pavilion, and with such a powerful alchemist like Zhang Xiaozu in charge, the business of his Dan Pavilion would definitely improve. Some were robbed.
The key is that if Zhang Xiaopeng leans on the lap of Paradise Dan Pavilion, he will wait for Zhang Xiaopv to
After the Dan Pavilion opened, they did not dare to use any special means to suppress it. They could only watch him open his business and watch him take away their own business.
Really unpleasant.
While Liu Zhihuan and Zhang Xiaozhu were chatting, the entourage who went to the Paradise Dan Pavilion to get medicinal materials came back.
Three carriages followed behind.
An old man got off the carriage and walked through the crowd to Liu Zhihuan.
When the crowd of onlookers saw the arrival of these three old men, they burst into heated discussions.
These three people are the three alchemists in charge of the Paradise Alchemy Pavilion, and they are famous in Paradise City.
The old man wearing a dark gold robe is named Zhao Dongqing. He is an eighth-level alchemist, only two steps away from the master level.
He is also one of Liu Zhihuan's alchemy masters.
The old man wearing a white robe is named Sikouce, and he is a seventh-grade great alchemist.
The old man wearing a gray robe is named Duan Zhengxing, and he is a sixth-grade great alchemist.
The three people heard from Liu Zhihuan's entourage that there was a very powerful and young alchemist refining alchemy on the street. His superb alchemy skills attracted Liu Zhihuan, and he offered to give two furnaces of star-chasing elixir ingredients, so they immediately ordered People prepared carriages and followed.
"Zhihuan has met three mentors." Liu Zhihuan saluted respectfully to the three elders, then looked at Zhang Xiaozu and said, "Come, let me introduce to Brother Zhang. These three are my mentors, and they are also..."
"Junior Zhang Dayong, meet the three seniors." After listening to Liu Zhihuan's introduction to the three elders, Zhang Xiaozhu immediately saluted the three of them.
The three of them nodded proudly.
It's not that they look down on Zhang Xiaopou, or they deliberately pretend to be arrogant in front of Zhang Xiaopou, but they have a natural arrogance that comes from being in a high position for a long time.
In fact, famous alchemists all have a sense of arrogance, giving people the impression that they are repelling others.
If you are not arrogant, if you are not arrogant, if you are affable and easy to talk to, you will definitely be exhausted, because people who come here to ask for elixirs will break the threshold.
Zhang Xiaopou didn't care and saluted the three of them again: "You're showing off your shame."
Then he took the medicinal materials and walked towards the alchemy furnace.
I stood in front of the alchemy furnace and thought about it for about a stick of incense before I started.
Start a fire, burn the furnace, add spiritual liquid to the furnace, and then add the medicinal materials one by one.
Zhang Xiaozu controlled the fire with his left hand, and kept making spells with his right hand to cast spells into the alchemy furnace. He would also rotate around the alchemy furnace from time to time, carving various talisman arrays in different locations at extremely fast speeds.
In the eyes of beginners who do not know how to make alchemy and those who do not know how to make alchemy, these techniques are dazzling and extremely profound. However, in the eyes of Liu Zhihuan and Zhao Dongqing, three masters of alchemy, they are not too mysterious.
They can understand all Zhang Xiaozu's techniques, but the only thing they can't understand is the speed.
Zhang Xiaopou's speed was so fast that it was almost beyond their understanding.
"He refines all the elixirs so quickly."
"It is more than twice as fast as the normal elixir-making time, and the quality of the elixir produced is not only not low, but also very high."
"There are some pills, and he can even refine one or two more."
Liu Zhihuan told Zhao Dongqing through sound transmission.
Zhao Dongqing nodded in surprise and said, "No wonder you attach so much importance to him."
Si Kouce looked solemn and said: "If it is as you said, then this boy will become your number one competitor for the championship, and you need to pay special attention to it."
Duan Zhengxing echoed in agreement.
"The order in which he delivers the medicinal ingredients is different from the normal order of refining the Star Chasing Pill. He almost puts the powerful medicinal ingredients into the elixir furnace at once, and then slowly adds the mild medicinal ingredients."
"And his elixir fire is particularly powerful."
"If I were refining it, I'm afraid the furnace would have exploded by now."
"How did he suppress the medicinal properties and prevent them from gushing out?"
After looking at the incense for most of the time, Zhao Dongqing frowned deeply.
The other two people also had similar expressions.
three
No one can understand it.
Zhao Dongqing suddenly turned to look at Liu Zhihuan and said, "Zhihuan, the competition is coming soon. You'd better not think about his alchemy, because this guy's alchemy is weird and may lead you astray."
Liu Zhihuan looked surprised when he heard this and said hurriedly: "Thank you, master, for reminding me."
He suddenly woke up. He had been unknowingly affected by Zhang Xiaozu's alchemy. If Zhao Dongqing hadn't woken him up with a word, it would have been terrible.
"Dry!"
"This guy didn't do it on purpose, did he?"
"He deliberately made alchemy on the street and used his weird alchemy method to influence his competitors."
With this thought for the rest of his life, Liu Zhihuan suddenly realized that Zhang Xiaopeng was not a good person.
He used his spiritual consciousness to explore the surroundings and found that there were indeed several specially invited alchemists watching Zhang Xiaozu making alchemy.
"Attention, it's time to condense the pill."
After a while of burning incense, Zhao Dongqing stared at the alchemy furnace and said.
call!
Zhang Xiaopou flapped his left palm, and the Zixia Dan Fire suddenly sprang up and enveloped the entire Dan Furnace.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths...
The alluring fragrance of elixir floats out from the elixir furnace, accompanied by the slight sound of elixir condensing.
"It's still fast!"
"This furnace is in danger again."
In the carriage on the street, Feng Sijun was unknowingly attracted to Zhang Xiaozu's alchemy. When he saw Zhang Xiaozu doing the same operation as before, he frowned suddenly, feeling that this furnace was going to explode again.
But the result was not.
Just after nine breaths, Zhang Xiaopou pressed down with his left palm and put away the Zixia Danhuo.
The fragrance of elixirs wafting out of the elixir furnace suddenly became several times stronger.
"It's done!"
Zhao Dongqing said in surprise.
Click!
Suddenly, a cracking sound came from the alchemy furnace.
The sound was not loud, but everyone in the room was staring at the alchemy furnace nervously, not daring to make a sound, and the whole street was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.
Therefore, although this tiny cracking sound was not loud, it penetrated everyone's ears very clearly.
"ah!"
Several people even exclaimed unconsciously, feeling sorry for the broken pills.
Bang!
Zhang Xiaozu slapped the alchemy stove with his palm, causing the lid to fly off.
"How can it be?!"
Not far away, Zhao Dongqing suddenly looked shocked and shouted loudly.
His consciousness extended into the elixir furnace the moment the furnace lid flew up, and he discovered a round, green elixir lying at the bottom of the furnace.
It's the Star Chasing Pill.
Next to the Star Chasing Pill lay a broken Jiao Pill.
In other words, Zhang Xiaozu's furnace actually turned into two pills, and only one of them was broken.
