In fact, Ning Qiutong really wronged Chen Xi.
Because after buying the medicinal materials, there was only about eight hundred yuan left out of the ten thousand yuan.
Ordinary medicinal materials were not expensive, but the aged ginseng, deer antler, and caterpillar fungus were very valuable things.
These aged tonic medicines contained a small amount of Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi. Because the cultivation environment on Earth was too bad, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi was almost dried up, so Chen Xi could only extract it from this kind of medicine.
Ning Zhongguo's injury was very serious, and there was no way to treat it through ordinary means, so Chen Xi was going to refine a simplified version of the Energy Cultivation Pill for him, using immortal means to save his life.
When Chen Xi returned to Kangju District with a large bag of medicinal materials, it was already five o 'clock in the afternoon.
The same place, the same time, the same person.
But his state of mind was already very different from yesterday.
With a faint trace of expectation, Chen Xi quickly walked to the door of the house.
The familiar apartment building, the familiar iron gate, and the familiar feeling of space and time overlapping …
Just like yesterday, he stretched out his hand and gently knocked on the door.
But this time, just as he finished knocking on the door, there was an instant movement in the house.
"Papa!"
"Papa!"
"Papa is back!"
The little fellow shouted excitedly. That soft and crisp voice could be heard clearly even by Chen Xi standing outside the door.
Then, with a burst of hurried footsteps, the door opened.
The little fellow maintained the posture of hanging on the door handle, tilting her head and revealing a pair of bright big eyes, quietly glancing outside the house.
And when she saw that the person outside the house was really her father, she immediately shouted excitedly, and then pushed open the iron door with great effort, directly throwing herself on Chen Xi's lap.
"Papa!"
Chen Xi quickly squatted down, hugged his daughter's small body with his left hand, and then slightly lowered his head, rubbed the little fellow's forehead with his head, and asked happily, "Niannian, did you miss Papa?"
"Yes!"
As if to express how much she missed her father, the little girl actually took the initiative to kiss Chen Xi on his face, which immediately made Chen Xi laugh out loud.
"Let's go back to the house with Daddy."
After that, Chen Xi lowered his hand slightly and placed it on the little fellow's thigh.
The little girl was also very cooperative. She directly sat on Chen Xi's arm and then wrapped her arms around Chen Xi's neck, allowing Chen Xi to carry her into the house.
Perhaps it was because she hadn't seen her father for a long time, but after Chen Xi sat on the sofa with the little fellow in his arms, the little fellow was unwilling to get down. Instead, she firmly hugged Chen Xi's neck and asked her father to watch cartoons with her.
Aunt Zhang had heard the commotion outside, but when she confirmed that it was Chen Xi, she returned to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
"How is it? Is the job search going well?"
Auntie Zhang washed the vegetables while asking about Chen Xi's situation through the kitchen door.
"Not bad. I met an old classmate, and he recommended me to work in a pharmaceutical company."
On the way home, Chen Xi had already thought of an excuse, so when Aunt Zhang asked, he opened his mouth and made up an excuse.
After all, everything that happened to him was too bizarre, so naturally, it was impossible for him to tell Aunt Zhang the truth.
"Pharmaceutical company? That's good. When will you officially start work? "
"In three days."
"Oh? Then why don't you play with Niannian while you're not at work these days? I'm an old woman, and I didn't dare to take her to crowded places before. Now that you're back, you can take her out to play. "
After hearing Aunt Zhang's words, Chen Xi looked down at his daughter and asked, "Niannian, Daddy will take you out to play tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay! Daddy will take me out to play! I also want to go to the amusement park and the zoo! "
The little girl immediately cried out excitedly.
And Chen Xi keenly noticed the word "also" in the little girl's words.
After thinking about it for a while, Chen Xi understood.
He guessed that when the little girl played with other children in the community, she heard about the amusement park and the zoo from them.
After all, Aunt Zhang was old and could not hold her for a long time. But if she ran around on the ground, the little girl was likely to run away when there were more people.
For safety reasons, Aunt Zhang had not taken the little girl out to play since she was so big.
Other children were showing off their experiences, but his daughter could only listen to them. It was quite pitiful to think about it.
Thinking of this, Chen Xi could not help but feel a little guilty.
So, he held his daughter, smelled the faint milky fragrance on the little girl's body, and said solemnly, "Niannian, you have to eat more and grow up quickly. When you grow up, Daddy will take you to pick the stars and the moon, okay? "
"Okay! Daddy, take me there! "
…
It was night.
Chen Xi waited until Aunt Zhang and the little girl were asleep, and then secretly brought the medicinal materials to the bedroom.
He was going to refine the Foundation Elixir, a kind of elixir that was very common in the Tianxuan World.
This kind of elixir was the basic elixir that every sect in the Cultivation World needed. It was mainly used to improve the physique of new disciples, and at the same time, to repair the old diseases in their bodies, so as to help them quickly accumulate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and officially enter the Immortal Sect.
Alchemy was a technical job, and it was very particular about the heat, the prescription, and the time to put the materials.
Chen Xi had lost his cultivation. Although after a few days of hard work, he had painstakingly accumulated a trace of True Essence, but he still could not release the simplest magic, and naturally could not use any exquisite fire control magic.
But fortunately, the grade of the Foundation Elixir was too low, and it did not even require any complicated alchemy techniques.
In addition, what Chen Xi was going to refine was not the authentic Foundation Elixir, but a simplified version that he improved based on the existing medicinal materials on earth. Naturally, there was no need for any techniques.
Because of the lack of several main ingredients, Chen Xi did not have much hope for the simplified version of the Foundation Elixir in his hands. If the elixir could have one-tenth of the effect of the authentic Foundation Elixir, then he would be satisfied …
After all, even the cleverest housewife could not cook without rice. Even if he was a grandmaster of alchemy, it was impossible to refine a furnace of elixir out of nothing.
Chen Xi secretly took an iron basin from the kitchen and placed it on the ground, and sat cross-legged on the side.
Then, he set up a Spirit Gathering Formation around the iron basin to prevent the spiritual energy from leaking out.
Chen Xi slowly put the medicinal materials into the iron basin, starting with the most common ones. When the ordinary medicinal materials filled the iron basin, he put a ginseng in the center of the iron basin, and this was the most valuable part of his large bag of medicinal materials.
"Shennong's Herbal Classic" had a saying: "Ginseng, mainly nourishes the five viscera, calms the spirit, stabilizes the soul, stops palpitations, dispels evil spirits, brightens the eyes, and improves happiness and wisdom. If taken for a long time, the body will be lighter and the life will be prolonged. "
Ning Zhongguo's five viscera were injured, so using ginseng as the main ingredient was naturally the best.
After putting everything in place, Chen Xi concentrated and began to quietly feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that existed around him.
After adjusting for eighty-one breaths, suddenly, a strange gust of wind blew in the room with the doors and windows closed.
At the same time, Chen Xi finally opened his eyes.
In the dark and gloomy room, his two eyes shone like fireflies. They flickered in the darkness, looking very strange.
"Gather!"
As his voice fell, the medicinal materials in the iron basin began to tremble slightly.
Then, a faint cyclone spiraled up from the middle of the medicinal materials, like a tornado, raging and swallowing everything around it.
Chen Xi's arms moved continuously, and in an instant, he had already made a few gestures.
"Rise!"
