"Eh? Lin Yi's out again? "Mengyao was puzzled as she prepared to make a call.
"Don't call yet …" Yushu stopped Mengyao suddenly. "The car's at home, so Shield Bro must be nearby. If he's not at home, then he must be at Han Jingjing's. Maybe they're making pills, let's not disturb him."
Mengyao nodded, surprised. She had to admit that Shu was quite good at analyzing things, figuring out Lin Yi's whereabouts from small details.
"I'm going to buy some food." Yushu's eyes flashed with worry, but it was gone in a flash.
"Then I'll go with you?" Mengyao was already out of the villa, so it didn't matter if she went with Yushu.
"Don't … …" Yushu said subconsciously, startled.
"??" Mengyao looked at Yushu, confused.
"Ah … … What I meant was that Yao Yao should stay at home and wait for Shield Bro. He'll think that we've been kidnapped when he comes back and sees that we're gone, and his car's gone … …" Yushu explained.
"Oh, that's true. I'll wait for Lin Yi then." Mengyao nodded.
Yushu breathed out in relief as she got into the car and drove Lin Yi's jeep out of Mengyao's sight … …
Mengyao watched the car leave, frowning as she stood in front of the villa for a long time, thinking about something … … She shook her head after a while and walked into the villa.
In a small teahouse near the university town, a girl was sitting opposite a mysterious old man. The girl was trying her best to stay calm, but there was a hint of nervousness in her eyes … …
"What's going on? Why isn't he dead yet? "The old man frowned." Didn't I tell you to poison him? Why's he still fine? He's even talking to the hidden House Zhao? "
"I … …" The girl hesitated. "He's a doctor, and a refiner as well. He was the one who solved the poisoning incident in Songshan's First School. He even tasted the poison himself … … "
"In other words, this poison has no effect on him, or he has already solved it himself?" The old man's expression softened a little after listening, then he nodded and said, "He didn't suspect you?"
"I don't think so … If he's suspicious, he probably suspects that there's something wrong with the tea leaves. Perhaps there are pesticides on them that haven't been washed clean?" the girl said carefully.
"I understand." The old man nodded noncommittally and said, "I expected this situation as well. It's just a test. Using poison to kill is easier, but the others are more troublesome. "
"Oh … then … why don't we not kill them? They're quite hard to kill. If we don't kill them properly and get exposed, it won't be fun, right?" the girl suggested.
"What? You can't bear to? "The old man's eyes lit up as he looked at the young girl in front of him.
"How … How is that possible …" The girl shook her head innocently. "I'm just afraid that I can't kill him. He just exposed himself … You know, he's very powerful … "
"Hmph, don't forget who you are!" The old man coldly snorted and threatened, "Your life and death is up to me. It's also in my hands. I'm sure you know the consequences of not having the antidote. It's death! "
"I … know …" The girl nodded silently.
"Forget it. Since he's so powerful, then we'll use another trick!" The old man said, "This is a bottle of sleeping pills blended with Benzoin and an antidote. Put it in the tea and it'll make him sleep soundly. It's colorless and odorless, so he shouldn't be able to detect it! You'll be fine after taking the antidote. Otherwise, you'll also fall asleep. "
"Ah … What's the use of this …" the girl asked curiously.
"Of course it's useful. After he falls asleep, stab him to death with a knife. " The old man said lightly, "He's an inner force cultivator. When he's asleep, he doesn't have qi to protect his body. One stab and he'll die!"
"Ah …" The girl didn't expect the old man to come up with such a method.
"Is there a problem?" The old man didn't give the girl time to answer. He asked directly.
"No … No …" The girl smiled bitterly. She took the sleeping pills from the old man and carefully put them in her pocket.
"Alright, I'll wait for the good news." The old man stood up and left the teahouse first. As for the young lady, she sighed with a responsible look in her eyes. She turned around and waved at the waiter, "Waiter …"
Lin Yi and Han Jingjing finally finished refining the pills. It could be said that the entire process was very successful. At least, it seemed to be very successful. Han Jingjing strictly followed her formula and the cauldron didn't show any strange phenomena. In the end, the cauldron emitted waves of fragrance, which meant that the herbs in the cauldron were about to become pills …
"Phew …" Han Jingjing heaved a sigh of relief. "It's a success. But Jing Jing is a little nervous … I wonder how many Meridian Unblocking Pills I can make?"
"Hehe, as long as I can make more than three pills, it's a victory." Lin Yi was more calm. After all, if Han Jingjing could make more pills than she needed, it was a success. She was much better than other alchemists.
"En, Brother Lin Yi always comforts Jing Jing." Han Jingjing carefully opened the cauldron and subconsciously counted the number of pills inside. "One, two, three … seven? It's even more than the previous first-grade pills? "
Han Jingjing couldn't help but cry out in surprise. Her highest record was double the number of pills. This time, she actually made more than double the number of pills. Moreover, they were second-grade pills. How could she not be surprised?
"Haha, congratulations, Jing Jing. Looks like you're getting more and more proficient at it." Although Lin Yi didn't appear too excited, he was actually very happy. Han Jingjing's attainments in alchemy were amazing, which meant that Lin Yi was amazing.
"It's not that Jing Jing is getting better at it. It's that Brother Lin Yi is helping me. Otherwise, Jing Jing wouldn't be able to do it. Not only would I fail, I wouldn't be able to make seven pills out of three sets of ingredients," Han Jingjing said.
"That's right. Let's find some time to make the Lesser Qi Gathering Pill. Hopefully, with these five sets of ingredients, we can create another miracle and make 12 pills," Lin Yi said.
"Okay." Han Jingjing nodded.
"Let's recover our qi and stamina first. After that, I have to go back. Alchemy took up a lot of time. I haven't told Yaoyao and the others. Don't think that I'm missing," Lin Yi said.
"En, en." Han Jingjing listened to whatever Lin Yi said. It was as if she had no opinion of her own.
