"Hahaha, Mr. Xiao Ming is very popular!" An old laugh came to Xiao Ming's ears as he was adjusting his clothes. He saw Ye Chong and Yan Tian, an old man in yellow clothes standing together.
"Ye Chong, Mr. Yan Tian." Xiao Ming was a little surprised. He didn't see the two of them just now.
"Haha, the two of us were delayed for some time on the road and arrived late. I hope Mr. Xiao Ming doesn't mind." Ye Zhong's words cleared Xiao Ming's doubts.
"No way." Xiao Ming shook his head and said.
"But what on earth delayed you for so long?"
Hearing Xiao Ming's question, Ye Zhong and Yan Tian looked at each other.
As if he had made a decision, Yan Tian flipped his hand, and a pale yellow copper piece appeared on it. The copper piece was also covered with a little green patina. If you look carefully, you can see that there is something like green patina on the copper piece. There are some faintly strange patterns.
This piece of pale yellow copper looks like rubbish picked up on the roadside, and it doesn't attract anyone's attention at all.
Xiao Ming's eyes paused on the copper piece, and he frowned slightly. He found that after careful observation, he didn't see anything wrong with the copper piece. In his perception, this thing, Almost too ordinary to be ordinary.
And it was precisely because of this extremely ordinary feeling that Xiao Ming felt a little weird.
'Could this be the jade piece containing pregnancy spirit dust? '
Xiao Ming muttered in confusion, raised his head and said, "Is this an ancient thing?"
"Hey, Xiao Ming, you really know the goods. You can recognize the origin of this thing at a glance. I can only identify this thing by consulting the classics." Yan Tian said with the hand that was not holding the jade piece, clasping his nose.
Seeing that Yan Tian became sloppy when he was excited, Ye Chong couldn't help but move a few steps to the side, and then said to Xiao Ming.
"We picked this thing up on the roadside, and I also have a piece."
As he spoke, Ye Zhong took out something, which was a piece of copper similar to the one in Yan Tian's hand.
"So, why are you here so late because of this?"
Ye Chong nodded sheepishly. He didn't know if this thing was useful. If it wasn't useful, it would be a waste of his time.
Yan Tianze laughed and said: "Didn't you say that if there is any ancient thing, it can come to you? Look..."
"Why don't you do your own research first?"
"I just did some research and couldn't figure it out, so I found out that this thing is an ancient thing, so I just sold it to you." Yan Tian said in a bachelor's manner.
"oh?"
Xiao Ming smiled: "What price do you want to get?"
"Same as last time, seventh-grade intermediate elixir, and I want an elixir that has a special effect on me."
Yan Tian dared to speak. He didn't know what this thing was, yet he dared to offer such a sky-high price.
"What about you? Do you want to sell it too?" Xiao Ming did not answer, but looked at Ye Zhong.
"I'll sell it too, and the price can be discussed." The Ye family still needs Xiao Ming's help, so Ye Zhong didn't offer a sky-high price. If Xiao Ming asked for it directly, Ye Zhong would probably give it to Xiao Ming directly.
…
"Okay, I happen to be interested in this thing. Give it to me." Xiao Ming nodded in agreement.
Yan Tian and Ye Zhong were a little surprised when Xiao Ming agreed so simply, thinking that Xiao Ming must have discovered something.
However, now that everything was settled, they did not want to go back on their word and handed the copper piece to Xiao Ming.
As soon as the copper pieces were in hand, a cold feeling spread out. Xiao Ming looked at the two copper pieces with interest and rubbed his fingers lightly on them. The rough touch felt like an extremely ordinary thing. It looks like a piece of copper. If it weren't for some complicated patterns drawn on it, I'm afraid not many people would really regard it as a treasure.
Yan Tian's eyes are very vicious.
After playing with it for a while, Xiao Ming took out two scrolls from the ring and threw them to the two of them.
"This seventh-level intermediate elixir recipe, can you see if you like it?"
Ye Zhong didn't check it and put it directly into the ring. Yan Tian's face was full of joy.
"Hahaha, it suits me just right. You are generous enough. I like you..." After saying that, Yan Tian left humming a little tune.
But Ye Chong stayed.
"Elder Xiao Ming, do you want me to stay here? Do you have any business at the Dan Pagoda?" Ye Zhong was a little confused. Xiao Ming asked him to stay just now.
"No, I just want to borrow the Yanghuo Ancient Altar from your Ye family for use."
In the Ancient Altar of Yanghuo, during the day, the sunlight in the sky will condense there. The ancient altar has an earth eye that leads directly to the depths of the ground. Occasionally, some earth core flames will float out from this earth eye, and in this earth When the heart fire comes into contact with the condensed sunlight, it will turn into a kind of flame, Yang Fire.
Although this kind of Yang fire is not a strange fire, it is far more powerful than ordinary animal fire. People in the Ye family often use this kind of Yang fire to improve the success rate of alchemy. In recent years, the Yang fire has gradually weakened, and the Ye family has continued to decline.
Now the Ye family is in trouble, and only Xiao Ming can save it, so he only hesitated for a second, and then Ye Zhong agreed.
After sending Ye Chong away, Xiao Ming also left here with the little medical fairy and Medusa.
After returning to his residence, Xiao Ming ran to the bedroom, took out the two copper pieces he had just obtained, and the ball swept in.
After this calcination, Xiao Ming discovered something special about the patina. He saw that no matter how much the white flames raised the temperature, the copper piece showed no signs of melting.
'Sure enough, that's what it is. '
Xiao Ming secretly said with some joy, and hurriedly raised the temperature. After nearly ten minutes, the green copper piece showed signs of melting.
As the melting of the copper sheet intensified, Xiao Ming suddenly discovered that the green color on the copper sheet was gradually dissolving, and extremely tiny grains of yellowish dust quietly fell off from the melted copper rust. Then it was suspended in the flames, flickering like an elf, giving people an extremely strong sense of spirituality.
The yellow dust gradually fell off, and after about two minutes, it stopped falling off. As the dust fell off, the copper piece was annihilated in an instant...
"It's indeed a pregnancy powder."
Xiao Ming lamented that he really made a mistake this time.
…
It was still a huge, pitch-black palace. The palace was terrifyingly large, and its entire body was black and gray, giving people an extremely depressing feeling.
There is a huge, pitch-black palace. The palace is terrifyingly large, and its entire body is black and gray, giving people an extremely depressing feeling.
There are many chains wrapped around these black stone pillars, and the chains are connected to countless flashing light groups. If you look closely, you can see that there is a soul body with closed eyes inside those light groups!
This black chain wrapped around the necks of those soul bodies, and there seemed to be something faintly coming from the soul bodies along the chain.
"Reporting to Tianzun, there is news from the Dan Pagoda that Xiao Ming is already the eighth elder of the Dan Pagoda."
