What did Han Yunxi and the rest see?
They saw a giant bronze furnace standing right in front of them. It was at least ten meters tall, dignified and dignified, and exuded an aura of antiquity.
It looked very much like a Daoist furnace for refining pills. It had three levels, each with three arched doors. Even someone as tall as Long Fei Ye could pass through them easily.
Han Yunxi couldn't help but wonder if even the legendary Taishang Laojun, Great Sage Guansun's Alchemy Furnace wasn't as big as this. What kind of treasure did the Medicine Requesting Cave make with such a big furnace?
The heat they felt was coming from this big medicine furnace. Unfortunately, there was no fire in the big medicine furnace.
Han Yunxi used her hand to block out the heat and could just barely make out the various ingredients placed in the bottom of the furnace. There were also plenty of unfinished pills in there. There was no fire, only heat, so it wasn't clear if this counted as refining medicine.
In that case, this furnace shouldn't be called a Medicine Furnace, but an Alchemy Furnace.
Han Yunxi finally understood why the Medicine Requesting Cave wasn't under the jurisdiction of the King Of Medicine. In the field of medicine, there were still big differences between Medicinal Pills and Medicinal Pills. Medicinal Pills were usually made from medicinal herbs and were used to treat illnesses and injuries. They were based on the natural principles of the human body. Medicinal Pills, on the other hand, were mainly made from minerals and a small amount of medicinal herbs. They had special effects that went against the natural order. It was obvious that the Medicine Requesting Cave focused on Medicinal Pills.
"They can refine pills without a fire? There must be a secret to this furnace, "Gu Beiyue was very interested.
Although the heat was strong, they still circled around the Alchemy Furnace to inspect it, but didn't see a single flame.
"Medicinal Pills aren't popular in Cloud Realm Continent, right?" Han Yunxi asked in bewilderment.
From what she understood, Medicinal Pills didn't have a market in Cloud Realm Continent. Neither did the emperors of the various countries seek out miraculous pills for immortality. What was the point of making such a big Alchemy Furnace?
Although she was curious, Han Yunxi didn't forget her business. They had worked so hard to find the Muscle Growing Ointment. She shouted, "Is anyone there?"
She shouted three times in a row, and the echoes overlapped. Other than that, there was no other response.
That was strange.
There were stone walls all around, and this was a completely sealed cave. Could there really be no one here?
Han Yunxi originally had a good impression of the Medicine Hut. She was even in awe of it. However, after this trip, her good impression of the Medicine Hut was completely gone. All that was left was distrust. She exclaimed, "Have we been cheated?"
"It's unlikely. We're the dignified Medicine Hut, the head of the pharmaceutical industry. We wouldn't be so dishonest," Gu Beiyue said seriously.
"Is anyone there? Someone come! Give me an explanation! "Han Yunxi shouted again.
Unfortunately, no one responded to her.
She looked around in silence for a long time. The entire cave was quiet, as if there really was no one here.
Being in the heat for so long had made her heart burn with anger. Add that to the difficulties they'd faced along the way, and Han Yunxi's dissatisfaction with the Medicine Requesting Cave had reached its limit. She raged, "We've already passed the three trials, so what more do you want? Petty, wishy-washy, despicable, shameless! If you can't afford the medicine, then don't agree! If no one comes, do you believe this wangfei won't destroy this furnace?! "
Lil Thing and Mama Yunxi's hearts were growing more and more in sync. It stood on Gu Beiyue's shoulder and was already grinding its teeth.
Abruptly, a strange voice rose up. "So noisy! Damned girl, you dare to threaten the Old Man's treasured furnace?! The Old Man will give you one chance. Apologize to the Old Man's treasured furnace right now, or else the Old Man won't forgive you! "
There was someone! Where was he?
Long Fei Ye and Gu Beiyue looked around vigilantly, but Han Yunxi wasn't afraid. She said coldly, "Stop pretending to be mysterious and come out!"
At this moment, an old man walked out from the top floor of the Alchemy Furnace. More accurately, he was an ugly old man. His neck was shrunk, his hair disheveled, and his face wrinkled like an old monster. Despite being as thin as firewood, he was dressed in loose black robes that concealed his body, leaving only his head exposed.
He knew they were here for the survival muscle ointment and was looking for the medicine when Han Yunxi's ruckus gave him a headache. He looked down at Han Yunxi's group and said darkly, "Damned girl, apologize!"
"And if I don't?" Han Yunxi retorted.
"You'll have to bear the consequences!" the old man was furious.
Han Yunxi ignored him and asked, "Where's your master? Tell him to come out immediately. Who do you think you are to go back on your word! "
The old man narrowed his eyes. He had heard Han Yunxi scolding him for being despicable, shameless, petty, and dawdling. He asked Coldly, "What medicine are you here for?"
"Muscle Growth Ointment!" Han Yunxi answered.
"Wait!"
The old man turned back to the Alchemy Furnace and went from the third floor to the first floor. He rummaged through the Alchemy Furnace and finally found a bottle of Muscle Growth Ointment. He walked out of the arched door on the first floor and went straight to Han Yunxi.
Up close, the wrinkles on the old man's face looked even scarier. Han Yunxi wasn't afraid, but Long Fei Ye still pulled her behind him immediately.
He faced the old man. "You're the master of the Medicine Requesting Cave?"
"That's right! Here, this is the medicine you asked for. "
The old man presented the Muscle Growth Ointment to Long Fei Ye. His palm was so thin that only bones were left. His fingernails were longer than his fingers and were covered in medicinal stains.
He said, "You're quite capable to be able to pass the three stages! Hehe, since you're here today, Old Man can even afford spirit pills, let alone a mere Muscle Growth Ointment! "
Long Fei Ye, who was a germaphobe, felt disgusted at the sight of the old man's hand.
He picked up the Muscle Growth Ointment with two fingers and didn't throw it to Han Yunxi. Instead, he threw it to Gu Beiyue and pushed Gu Beiyue away.
Han Yunxi naturally wanted to leave. She had already gotten what she wanted, so what was the point of talking so much? Besides, it was so hot here. Who knew if she would get sick from staying here for too long?
"Stupid girl, stop right there!" The old man did not give up. "You want to leave after scolding me? It's not that easy. "
Han Yunxi turned around impatiently and snorted. "Don't tell me you don't know what your subordinates have done! Don't tell me you don't know that we've been waiting here for a long time. Despicable, shameless, petty, and dawdling. Am I wrong to scold you? "
The old man sized up Han Yunxi and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. All these years, only the boy he doted on the most dared to speak to him like this.
Although he was familiar with her, the old man was still very angry. He was as stubborn as a child. "Old Man, I don't care. No matter what, you have to kowtow and apologize to Old Man's furnace. You scared it!"
Han Yunxi almost suspected that there was something wrong with this old man's mind. She was in a hurry to apply medicine and treat Gu Beiyue's wounds, so she didn't fuss over it.
"Okay, okay, okay! Furnace, I'm sorry. I said the wrong thing just now. "
It was fine to apologize, but forget about kowtowing.
Unexpectedly, the old man insisted. "Kneel down and kowtow!"
Before Han Yunxi could flare up, Long Fei Ye was the first to fly into a rage. "Pretending to be crazy and acting dumb. Don't be so shameless!"
The old man suddenly grabbed a ball of fire out of thin air. Seeing this, Han Yunxi and the other two were shocked. What the hell was this? Han Yunxi felt that it was already very impressive that she could grab poison out of thin air, but she didn't expect this old man to be able to make fire out of thin air!
What kind of martial arts was this?
Could it be related to this Alchemy Furnace that could generate heat without fire?
Suddenly, Han Yunxi realized that this cave was filled with strangeness. Even the fire in the old man's hand was very strange. It was different from ordinary flames.
"Whoever passed the first round of medicine appraisal, stand aside," the old man said in annoyance.
It seemed like he was going to let go of the person who passed the first round.
Han Yunxi stepped out from behind Long Fei Ye. "It was me."
The old man was stunned for a moment before he raised his hand to extinguish the fire. He stared at Han Yunxi and muttered something with a conflicted expression. After a while, his facial features were all scrunched together. Coupled with the wrinkles on his face, his face really looked like an old … tangerine.
He dragged his long black robe and paced back and forth as if he was in great pain.
Han Yunxi was scared out of her wits. She thought that there must be something wrong with this old man's head!
No matter how powerful a person was, they weren't scary. Lunatics were the scariest because you couldn't predict what they would do.
Gu Beiyue and Long Fei Ye frowned as they watched. Both of them thought of the same person — Medicine Fiend Gu Qi Sha!
Although there were many differences, there were still some similarities. Therefore, in their opinion, this old man was either pretending to be crazy or had a strange temper.
No matter what it was, they didn't have time to waste here. They had to leave as soon as possible. This place was very strange and not a place to stay for long.
"Let's go!" Long Fei Ye said in a low voice.
Before they could move, the old man suddenly turned to look at Han Yunxi and sneered. "Tsk tsk, I didn't expect a girl to be so capable! That old thing Sun Zhong was right to take you as his disciple! "
His tone was full of disdain for women.
Han Yunxi didn't argue. "Old Senior, we've passed all three rounds and I apologize. Can we leave now? "
Han Yunxi had already secretly decided that if the old man made things difficult for them again, she would let the little thing out and eat all his Medicinal Pills, not leaving a single one behind.
However, for some reason, the old man said, "Since you're already Sun Zhong's disciple, Old Man won't take you as his disciple. If you help the Old Man find someone, the Old Man will leave Medicine Requesting Cave to you. How about that? "
Han Yunxi was even more certain that this old man was crazy! Crazy!
In order to leave as soon as possible, she immediately agreed. "Sure, who are you looking for?"
"My disciple." The old man fell into deep thought as he spoke. No one knew what he was thinking, but a smile appeared on his terrifying face. It was so benevolent that one could overlook his old and ugly appearance.
After a while, he said, "He should be in his twenties now. He's a genius … No, no, he's a genius. He can identify thousands of medicines at such a young age and can even come up with many prescriptions … "
Hearing this, Han Yunxi and the other two exchanged glances. Because they immediately thought of one person — Gu Qi Sha, who was also Gu!
Such an evaluation was exclusive to Gu!
"What's his name?" Han Yunxi asked anxiously.
The old man laughed. "Little Madman! Haha, Old Man is Old Lunatic, and he's Little Madman. "
"What does he look like?" Han Yunxi asked again.
The old man immediately took out a portrait of a ten-year-old boy with exquisite facial features and a pair of long and narrow peach blossom eyes. He was especially good-looking.
Han Yunxi thought of Gu again, and her heart unconsciously raced.
Gu …
How did he know that the Tendon Growing Ointment was in the Medicine Hut? He usually wouldn't leave no matter what, so why didn't he follow them this time?
