Yanxuan walked into Nan Yutang, not for elixir refining. She had just come out of Qixiang Pavilion and had just handed over some elixirs she had recently refined.
In the innermost corner of Nanyu Hall, there is a small cubicle, separated only by a silk landscape screen. Next to the screen is a long bookcase, and behind the bookcase sits a young man of about twenty years old. The man was writing something on an account book. Behind him was a row of tall purple wooden cabinets against the wall, with small drawers densely arranged on them.
Yanxuan feels familiar every time she sees those cabinets. Cabinets similar to those containing medicinal materials are also found in the medical clinic where her mother practices medicine. She knew that the wood used to make this kind of cabinet was a kind of rare spiritual wood. After the cabinet was made and the spiritual herbs were placed in these small drawers, there was no need to worry that the spiritual herbs would gradually wither and lose their medicinal properties. She also had several such purple ones. The small wooden box made of wood is also used to store spiritual herbs, but the quality is much worse than the wood of the cabinet.
If I could have such a big cabinet in the future, filled with all kinds of spiritual herbs I collected, I would feel comfortable just thinking about it. But that has to wait until I can have a cave of my own. That... seems to be too early.
"Senior Brother Mi" Yanxuan called as he arrived in front of the young man's case.
"Oh, Junior Sister Yan, please sit down. Why did you go to Qixiang Pavilion to pay some pills again?" The young man who was called Senior Brother Mi stopped writing when he saw it was Yanxuan and asked her with a smile.
"Yes," Yanxuan said, took out a piece of paper, handed it to Senior Brother Na Mi with both hands, and said, "Senior Brother Laomi."
"Well, let me take a look," Senior Brother Na Mi took the piece of paper. On the paper was written the name, quantity and quality of the elixir that Yanxuan handed over, and also used the seal of Qixiang Pavilion to identify the elixir for Yanxuan. After reading the senior brother's private seal, senior brother Mi said, "Junior sister Yan is really diligent. Please wait a moment."
After saying that, Senior Brother Mi took out a wooden box, but after thinking about it, he replaced the wooden box with a larger one. Then he stood up, took the paper and wooden box, and opened the small drawers on the cabinet. From inside He took out each good-quality spiritual grass and placed it in a wooden box. The amount of spiritual grass that should be given to Yanxuan was determined according to the record on the piece of paper given by Qixiang Pavilion.
"Junior sister Yan, take a look. If it's correct, please write your name here."
"Okay." Yanxuan looked at the spiritual herbs in the wooden box. She knew how many spiritual herbs she had turned in at Qixiang Pavilion and how many spiritual herbs she could exchange for. After a quick glance, she knew that there was no discrepancy in the quantity. Nan There was no need to worry about the quality of the spiritual grass in Yutang, so he took the pen handed over by Senior Brother Mi and wrote his name on the piece of paper in Qixiang Pavilion.
After putting away the wooden box, Yanxuan was about to leave, but Senior Brother Mi stopped her.
"Junior sister Yan, please wait a moment." As he said that, senior brother Mi opened another thick account book, flipped through a few pages and found Yan Xuan's name. He picked up a pen and looked at the paper while recording it up and down. After some calculations, "I have something I should give you."
What was handed over was a box no bigger than a palm, and inside was a small, shiny white jade gourd.
"Ah! I...do I have enough?" Yanxuan asked in surprise.
"Including this time, that's enough. Congratulations to Junior Sister Yan." Senior Brother Mi said with a smile.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Mi."
Holding the small white jade gourd, Yanxuan looked at it happily and walked out. Senior Sister Min finally had a jade gourd that he envied.
However, after walking a few steps, she caught a glimpse of a back from the corner of her eye, which made her heart skip a beat and she couldn't help but stop.
She stopped to look again but couldn't see it again, but she concluded that she had seen it correctly, so she took two steps back and looked to one side.
I finally saw it this time. It was an alchemy compartment. The screens that separated each other were not tightly closed. There was a gap as wide as a palm. Through that gap, you could see the situation inside the compartment. Under the alchemy furnace. Scarlet flames surged out from the fire eyes like a big tongue, licking a black alchemy furnace. The back of a young man was a little dark against the scarlet flames. The outline of the back looked familiar to Yanxuan. Who was it? ?
Maybe after looking at it for a long time, the man in the cubicle got a reaction and turned around to look at Yanxuan. When he met Yanxuan's eyes, the man was also stunned when he saw Yanxuan and stared at Yanxuan coldly. With one glance, he reached out and closed all the screens behind him, blocking Yan Xuan's gaze.
The man's appearance and cold glance made Yanxuan extremely panicked, and he hurriedly walked outside Nanyu Hall.
Qin Suijue!
That was Qin Suijie, why was he here! Why are you in Nanyutang? Could it be that he is also practicing the art of alchemy in Qixia Mountain?
Thinking about things in her mind, Yanxuan left in a hurry. As soon as she left Nanyutang, she accidentally bumped into another person.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yanxuan apologized quickly before he could see who he bumped into.
"It's okay to be sorry. If you bump into such a pretty little junior sister, I can't just apologize and let you go!"
Although the words were a bit frivolous, they were spoken by a female voice, and the voice was very familiar.
"A Ping, you damn girl!" When Yanxuan saw clearly that it was Tang Ping who was teasing him in front of him, he was so angry that he reached out to pinch her.
"Haha, Sister Yan, what's wrong with you? Are you leaving in such a hurry to avoid debt?"
"He also said, come with me." After saying that, Yanxuan led Tang Ping back to his residence.
"How did you know I was in Nanyutang?"
"I don't know either, but I met Senior Sister Min and asked her about it. She told me that you might have gone to Nanyu Hall. I went there and saw you coming out of it. Sister Yan, what did you do just now? So panicked?"
"And he said, guess who I met inside?"
"Well...Sister Yan, you didn't meet Mr. Qin, did you?"
"Huh? How did you know?"
"I didn't know it at first. My sixth grandfather told me a few days ago that Mr. Qin also went to Qixia Mountain. That's right. The Qin family became famous in the world of cultivation by refining alchemy. Their family members are in our Of course Wuling is going to Qixia Mountain."
"Why don't you look worried at all? I was so frightened at the time, and Qin even noticed me and glanced at me, which made my heart beat fast."
"There's nothing to worry about, Sister Yan. He's too busy taking care of himself right now. Have you forgotten the elixir he swallowed? How can he have time to plot against us? Besides, my sixth grandfather is also watching him, so don't worry too much about him. .”
"He can make alchemy now, so his cultivation should be similar to ours?"
"That's right, his current cultivation is said to be on the second level of Qi Refining, but he entered the inner sect almost half a year earlier than us. He has only reached the second level now, and he is already slower than us. Plus his pills , his cultivation will become slower and slower, Xiaowu Pass is a huge difficulty for him, I am worried about what he will do, my sixth grandfather has promised me that this Mr. Qin cannot make any splash."
"That's good." Hearing what Tang Ping said, Yan Xuan felt slightly relieved, "Then we should be more careful about him in the future."
"The one we have to be wary of in the future is not him, but the Qin family. But now that the Tang family and the Qin family have turned against each other, there is no need to worry too much. The Qin family does not dare to do anything too outrageous. By the way, I think you will I keep looking at something in my hand, what is it?"
Yanxuan saw that Tang Ping didn't care about Qin Suijie. He thought that Tang Ping's sixth grandfather was the elder of the sect and must have made arrangements for this matter. He gradually felt relieved and listened to her question. Then he took out the jade gourd and showed it to her.
"It's just the sign of a junior alchemist."
"Well, this little gourd is quite exquisitely made. Hey, why is it pinned to your body? I think Senior Sister Min also has one."
"Well, Senior Sister Min already has it. It is estimated that in a while, Senior Sister Min will be able to get the double gourd jade button, like this"
As he spoke, Yanxuan took off his master's jade pendant, tied a silk ribbon with a buckle and put it on his thin waist in the middle of the small gourd. After tightening it, the white jade small gourd was firmly attached to the silk ribbon of the jade pendant.
"Okay, I went to Mr. Qian's place the day before yesterday, and he actually got their Chengqi Hall's inner hall sign, hum! He even showed off to me, but it seems that we are not slow."
"By the way, A Ping, take this and ask your senior sister or your master. I got some new elixir recipes, including those for spirit beasts. The one in this bottle is what I tried to refine. Although I have learned Taste Pill, I don’t know whether the spirit beast pill is suitable for refining or not. I still ask, how to use this pill? I don’t know how to use it. If you ask, let me know. How should this elixir be refined?"
"Oh?" Tang Ping was curious about the small bottle. She opened it and looked inside. The bottle was full of small pills that were about the size and color of red beans.
Every time Tang Ping came to Yanxuan's place, she would definitely let Xiao Bai out to play. As soon as the small bottle was opened, Xiao Bai would grab it as if he smelled some delicious food.
Tang Ping flicked Xiaobai's forehead and said angrily: "Didn't you listen to Sister Yan? When I get back, I'll ask you first and then give it to you. Anyway, it's made for you, and I won't eat it secretly." ,No hurries!"
After chatting with Yanxuan for a long time, Tang Ping returned to Fairy Guhuo's cave.
