After lying in bed for two days and using a lot of precious herbs, Ren Baqian was finally able to get up and move around.
Up until now, he still didn't know what exactly happened, but he knew the condition of his body.
Many bones in his back and shoulder blades were cracked, and he almost had a concussion. It seemed like he was hit by a truck.
But how could there be a truck in Yangxin Palace Hall?
The only person who could do it was the empress. However, when he asked this question, the empress avoided it and even her ears turned red.
This made him even more curious about what happened that day.
If he said that he angered the empress after drinking and was beaten up by her, why did her ears turn red? She would only behave like this when she was shy.
But what exactly happened?
If he couldn't figure it out, he didn't want to think about it. The empress wouldn't tell him either. Qing Yuan and Hong Luan should know, but they didn't say anything either.
Even if he racked his brains, he wouldn't have thought that he would dance with the empress, let alone cause a murder.
When he was able to move a little, he asked someone to carry him to the empty space next to the training ground beside the palace and told the people from the Ministry of Works about his plans for a school.
In fact, it was just to erect a wall and build a few houses. In addition to the three houses for school, there was also a library for books and reading, and a laboratory.
However, the first thing to do was to build the three houses. The rest could be done slowly.
After another two days, Ren Baqian was finally able to move by himself. Although his body was still in pain, it wasn't a big deal.
This world was indeed unique in terms of medicine, whether it was the black mud cream or the medicine this time.
With his previous injuries, he would probably need at least a month to walk on Earth. A hundred days to recover from a serious injury wasn't an exaggeration.
When they returned to Earth, the two of them went directly to Spain and stayed there for three days.
In fact, there was a place in Spain that Ren Baqian wanted to see. It was Barcelona's Celestial Beach. In the past, he only heard about it on the Internet and always wanted to see it. However, the weather wasn't right, and the empress was beside him.
The empress almost flipped the table when she saw the bikini. If she saw Celestial Beach, Ren Baqian felt that he wouldn't have a good ending.
You won't die if you don't court disaster. Ren Baqian deeply agreed with this wise saying of the ancients.
This time, Ren Baqian brought along a set of glass laboratory utensils and glucose. Then, he headed straight to the glass factory with his imperial bodyguards.
As soon as he arrived at the glass factory, a burly man greeted him, "Sir Ren."
This burly man was called Jiao Zuo, and he had been working for the imperial family. Previously, when the glass factory was being built, Ren Baqian and the empress wanted him, and he was finally assigned to this position.
This person had followed the caravan to the Yun Nation and Dayao a few times and was literate. Furthermore, he was one of the few ancient race members who were more cautious and meticulous. He would be a pretty good helper.
Of course, this cautiousness and meticulousness was only relative. In the beginning, it caused a lot of trouble.
However, things had gotten better recently.
"How have you been recently? Is the color of the glass gone? "Ren Baqian asked after getting off the horned cow.
"Sir Ren, I was just about to report that the color of the glass is much lighter than before. I reckon that we will be able to produce colorless glass very soon," Jiao Zuo said with a joyful look on his face.
"Let's go take a look." Ren Baqian nodded slightly. A moment later, he saw a flat piece of glass placed in a room. Part of it was green in the past, while the other part was green now. Comparing the two pieces, one could see that the color was much lighter.
"Well done!" Ren Baqian nodded.
"It's what I should do." Jiao Zuo grinned.
"Have you made the molds that I asked you to make?" Ren Baqian asked.
"Yes, and I have tried to make some of them." Jiao Zuo opened the box at the side and revealed some glass cups. They were all classical cups and goblets, and their color was also a little green.
"Sir, if we bring these things to the Yun Nation and Great Xia, they can be sold for a high price," Jiao Zuo said with a smile.
Ren Baqian picked up two of them and looked at them carefully. He shook his head slightly and said, "They are still a little rough. The thickness of the walls and the bottom of the cups aren't very uniform. Remake the molds and get the best craftsmen."
"Got it, Sir." Jiao Zuo had a look of regret in his eyes. He felt that the ones in the box were pretty good.
However, they still weren't up to standard for Deputy Prefect Ren.
Following which, Ren Baqian moved the box that contained the glassware out and found a room to conduct the silver mirror reaction experiment.
When Jiao Zuo saw the glassware that Ren Baqian took out, he finally understood why Ren Baqian didn't like the glass cups that they made.
The color of the bottles and jars that Ren Baqian took out was pure and transparent. There were almost no flaws, and the glass cups that they made could not be compared to them.
For the next few days, Ren Baqian would go to the glass factory every day. Every day, he would use those glass bottles and jars to conduct experiments in that small room. He would mumble words like sodium hydroxide, silver nitrate, ammonia, and so on that no one could understand.
From time to time, he would kick the wall in frustration.
"Ah — —!" Hearing the angry screams from inside, the imperial bodyguards outside were already used to it.
In any case, no matter what Ren Baqian was doing inside, they just didn't let anyone in to disturb him.
After spending a few days and experiencing dozens of failures, Ren Baqian finally completed the silver mirror reaction experiment. For most people, this experiment could be completed in two hours.
When he looked at the palm-sized mirror in his hand, his face was filled with joy.
His chemistry teacher could finally rest in peace in the netherworld.
After the first time, the second time would be much easier.
Ren Baqian called a few craftsmen over and taught them how to make the silver mirror step by step.
In the afternoon, cries of "Ah — —!" and "Why are you guys as stupid as pigs!" could be heard coming from the room again.
"Sir, what's a pig?" Someone asked.
"Return to the city!" Ren Baqian stormed out of the room with blue veins popping out on his forehead.
…
"Lu Pinghai should be here in the next few days, right?" a handsome young man dressed in embroidered clothes asked while riding on a horse.
"Young Master, this is the news," a middle-aged man with a long spear on his back replied.
Looking at the young man beside him, there was a trace of regret in his eyes.
The last descendant of the Yu family was actually a cripple in terms of cultivation.
Unless he could get his hands on Lu Pinghai's Spirit Yuan Pill. It was just that he didn't know if the item that he brought this time would make him relent.
"I will definitely succeed. Even Lu Pinghai will be tempted by this item. I will get the Spirit Yuan Pill and take back what belongs to me, "the young man said with a smile. In his eyes, there wasn't a trace of doubt on whether he could succeed or not.
Everything that happened was God's way of training for me.
I will definitely succeed!
I will return the disdain and supercilious looks that those people gave me one by one.
"Uncle Ping, it has been hard on you all these years. If it wasn't for your kindness to the Yu family, I'm afraid I wouldn't be alive today, "the young man sighed.
"It's my duty," the man addressed as Uncle Ping replied.
"You're an Earth Embryo Realm expert, and yet you're guarding a cripple like me. You don't know how many people are secretly cursing you," the young man said with a smile. If it wasn't for Uncle Ping, he wouldn't even be able to keep the last things that belonged to the Yu family.
Uncle Ping smiled and didn't reply.
When the two of them reached the outskirts of the village, the young man stopped and looked at it. "It's really shabby." Then, he turned to look at the forest at the side. That was where the grave of Lu Qi, Lu Pinghai's best friend, was.
At this moment, Uncle Ping's expression suddenly changed. "Young Master, be careful."
Before he finished his sentence, he had already appeared in front of the young man at lightning speed. The long spear on his back was already held horizontally in his hand, deflecting two incoming arrows.
"Eh!" A surprised sound came from the forest.
Then, two burly men who looked exactly the same walked out from the forest. "You're the third batch."
"Aboriginals!" Uncle Ping's expression changed. The other party should have the same purpose as him. As for the other party saying that he was the third batch, there was no need to ask about the whereabouts of the previous two batches.
"Do you want to do it, or should I?" The two aboriginal men looked at each other.
"Rock-paper-scissors!"
Uncle Ping's face turned red. No matter what, he was still an Earth Embryo Realm expert. When had he ever been humiliated like this?
"Come, come, come. The limit is ten moves. If you don't die, I'll let you go." One of the burly men walked out with an expression as if he had won a prize. He looked at the broadsword in the other party's hand.
It looked like the standard broadsword of Dayao, but it was longer and thicker.
"Young Master, step back first!" Uncle Ping said in a deep voice. He didn't doubt the other party's words. Once the aboriginals made a promise, they wouldn't go back on it.
As long as he could withstand ten moves from the other party, he was still confident in his strength. The other party had underestimated him.
He had a move that had never failed before. Those who had seen it before were all dead. Unfortunately, there were two opponents this time, and he could only use that move once.
…
Two minutes later, the burly man spat at the corpse in front of him.
Then, he punched the sorrowful young man to death.
He then dragged the two corpses into the forest.
"Eh, what's this? It looks like something good. "A voice came from the forest.
"Keep it. I'll show it to the great general when I get back."
