The second uncle Xu was moved. His 20 years of mediation were not in vain. Although his wife still didn't like his nephew, the relationship between the younger generation was still very good.
The second uncle Xu took the sleeping little girl from his daughter's arms and comforted her, "Ningyan has come out, and it's over."
Xu Lingyue didn't believe it.
The second uncle Xu tried to persuade her, but she still didn't believe it and looked at her second brother.
Xu Xinnian said lightly, "It's a piece of cake."
Xu Lingyue believed it.
A proud person like her second brother would not lie about such a big thing.
County Magistrate Zhu paid close attention to the follow-up of this matter and immediately rushed over when he heard the news from Official Xu.
"How did you deal with Young Master Zhou?" County Magistrate Zhu was surprised. Unless Young Master Zhou gave up himself, but he didn't think it was possible.
"I invited a teacher." Xu Xinnian said.
"I see …" County Magistrate Zhu suddenly understood, but he felt that it was not right. All the big shots in the court were from the Imperial College. It was known that the Imperial College and the Yunlu Academy were not on good terms.
Even if Xu Xinnian's teacher was a great scholar, Minister Sun of the Ministry of Justice would not let him go so easily, and there would be some wrangling. It would not be so easy to make the great scholar of the Yunlu Academy lose face.
"And Mr. Mubai." Xu Xinnian finished and added, "And the white clothes of the Celestial Commissioner."
"What?!" County Magistrate Zhu was shocked, and his expression became cautious, and his attitude became a lot more correct, "Like father like son, like father like son.
"Congratulations, your excellency Xu. Your son is talented and not only is he valued by the Yunlu Academy, but also has a friendship with the white clothes of the Celestial Commissioner. He has a promising future. I'm so envious of you to have such a son. "
"Second brother knows the white clothes of the Celestial Commissioner?" Xu Lingyue immediately looked at Xu Xinnian, and a strong sense of security surged in her heart.
Ordinary women followed their father at home and their husband when they got married. This reflected the two supports when they were waiting to be married and when they got married.
When she was at home, her father was her support, and so was her brother.
Xu Xinnian shook his head. "I didn't invite Mr. Mubai. It was my big brother's own connections. I don't know the Celestial Commissioner's White Robe either. It was Big Brother who found him. "
When did Xu Ningyan get to know Great Scholar Li Mubai of Yunlu Academy? Perhaps Xu Xinnian was the middleman. But how did the Celestial Commissioner in white get to know a petty official like him?
County Magistrate Zhu was stunned on the spot, his mind filled with the word 'impossible'.
Xu Ningyan had been working for him for some years. He had always been a quiet, invisible person. His relationship with his colleagues was not bad, but it was not to the extent that he was completely devoted to them.
Other than being good at fighting, he didn't have any great abilities.
During this period of time, he had suddenly become quick-witted and slippery. He addressed Arrester Wang as his brother and chatted merrily with his colleagues over wine.
But in any case, it was not enough to get the appreciation of Great Scholar and the friendship of the Celestial Commissioner in white.
"If this is the case, Xu Ningyan's status is not the same as before. Even I have to be polite to him … When he takes the morning roll call tomorrow, I will sound him out and see what exactly is going on." County Magistrate Zhu thought to himself.
Xu Lingyue opened her big Katzilan eyes wide and couldn't believe it.
But as smart as she was, she immediately associated it. Was it that poem? The farewell poem that Big Brother wrote for Second Brother was appreciated by Great Scholar, so he agreed to help mediate.
But how did the Celestial Commissioner's immortal get to know Big Brother … Big Brother, he was really getting more and more mysterious.
…
Xu Qi'an followed Song Qing down the corridor. The air hole on the right side of the wall emitted beams of light, bringing light.
There were no windows in the stargazing tower. Xu Qi'an was a little regretful that he couldn't see the scenery from afar.
Not long after, they came to a secret room. Song Qing took out the key to open the door and lit the candles in the secret room.
There were all kinds of strange things in the secret room. Some were weapons, bows and crossbows, and some were completely unknown.
Xu Qi'an looked at them one by one like he was shopping in a clothing store. Suddenly, he was shocked by something.
"What is this?"
It was a huge Glaze bottle filled with clear water. A strange creature was soaking in the water. It looked like a cat, but its body was covered with wood lines and there were even lumps on its abdomen.
What was even more strange was that it was alive. The protruding lumps were like a heart, moving slightly.
"This is a great experiment," Song Qing said in a deep voice. "Its original body is a cat. I tried to fuse it with a tree to give it the ability to regrow broken limbs. In fact, I was close to success. Even if you cut off its head, it will grow back in three days. Its only weakness is its heart.
"But I also failed because it completely turned into a tree. It can't move, can't think, and can only be raised in the water."
… Are you a f * cking devil? The way Xu Qi'an looked at him changed.
"What do you think of my idea?" Song Qing asked in a tentative tone. Seeing that there was something wrong with Xu Qi'an's eyes, he frowned and was a little disappointed.
"You think it's a problem too?"
Xu Qi'an kept his expression unchanged and shook his head. "I just think you're going in the wrong direction. I've also thought about alchemy in this area, but I named it hybridization."
Hybridization … Song Qing chewed on the word, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"We can start with small things. Hybridize the same species. For example, cross two different cat breeds and let them give birth to a new species," Xu Qi'an said.
"Give birth to a different species? What kind of species will it give birth to? "Song Qing asked eagerly.
"I don't know. Maybe it will give birth to a new and excellent breed, or maybe it will be the opposite," Xu Qi'an said. "But this is the charm of alchemy. What do you think?"
"You just said alchemy! You just said alchemy!" Song Qing was very excited.
"What's wrong?" Xu Qi'an's heart sank. He suspected that he had said something wrong.
"I think alchemy is not limited to inanimate objects. I think living things are also in the field of alchemy. So I changed this cat, but my teacher didn't agree. He said that living things are not in the field of alchemy. Because of this, he grounded me for a long time. "
Lord Supervisor did a good job … Xu Qi'an said with a straight face, "Time will tell whether it's true or not."
After thinking for a while, he continued, "If you want to refute Lord Supervisor and don't want to be grounded, I have a suggestion."
"Say it." Song Qing had already regarded Xu Qi'an as a kindred spirit.
"You can start with plants," Xu Qi'an said. "Plants are also living things, but their nature is much lighter. I've seen alchemy in an ancient alchemy book that coincides with your idea … "
He didn't continue.
"Just say it." Song Qing felt like his heart was being scratched. The two pairs of eyes above his puffy eye bags were wide open.
"Senior Brother Song, this thing here is not bad." Xu Qi'an reminded him. "The unchanging principle of alchemy …"
"I understand. I can give you three gifts. With your current level of refinement, I think this item is suitable for you." Song Qing immediately understood what Xu Qi'an meant. He didn't dislike the principle of equal exchange.
He even admired it.
"I made this crossbow by chance. It is harder and more tenacious than normal iron. But because of the difficulty of making it, it can't be mass produced. The string is made from the silk of the Six Eyed Poison Spider and the silk of the Seven Colored Silkworm. In a sneak attack, it can break through the Qi Protecting Qi of a Mortal Realm Warrior, but not the peak of Mortal Realm.
"The most valuable thing about this crossbow is that it has an array carved on it. The array will increase the power of the arrow, which can be a threat to Spirit Refinement warriors. But it can only be used three times. After that, the array will disappear. "
Xu Qi'an's heart skipped a beat. "This is an artifact?"
