Since ancient times, there had been countless legends of people becoming immortals by refining elixirs. Because of the uncertainty of the refining process and the uniqueness of the refined elixir, having a high-grade immortal elixir was the dream of many cultivators.
The young lady of the Ye family had learned alchemy and medicine. That small seven-colored elixir furnace was her family's heirloom. This kind of treasure had always been passed down to males and not females. Now that it had fallen into her hands, it could only be said that her family had already declined. And it was precisely because of this decline that this sparkling elixir that had suddenly appeared was exceptionally precious.
After being married for so many years, Eldest Young Master Ye had never seen his wife refine any good elixirs, but she had wasted a lot of money. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so impatient and harsh to his wife. The young lady had always felt that she owed her husband a lot. At home, she didn't even dare to speak loudly and was always a yes-man.
When she saw the elixir floating at the mouth of the furnace, the young lady's first thought was to look at Zhou Qingfeng. She was surprised that Zhou Qingfeng had refined this elixir. But Zhou Qingfeng pointed at the young lady herself. The surrounding crowd also looked at her. Everyone's surprise, confusion, and envy were all for her — for the first time in many years, her heart raced as if she really had this honor.
The young lady was tongue-tied. She looked at Zhou Qingfeng, then at the elixir, and then at her companions who kept congratulating her — even Fan Wan 'er was congratulating her. This elixir in front of her was a fourth-grade elixir, a sign that a low-grade elixir master had advanced to the mid-grade.
These days, there were too few elixir masters. Those who could refine fourth-grade elixirs were experts. The young lady really wanted to have this honor.
"I really refined it?" The young lady still had the last bit of clarity in her mind. She turned her head to look at Zhou Qingfeng and asked, "I just came over to say a few words to you and this elixir appeared."
"Jiejie, didn't you also fiddle with the elixir furnace?"
"I just saw that you made it crooked, so I casually put it right."
"Jiejie, didn't you throw a few medicinal ingredients into the elixir furnace?"
"I was just demonstrating to you how to throw the ingredients in. You need to be gentle and slow, and the technique has to be paid attention to. Throwing ingredients like that is too reckless, it's like burning firewood. "
"Jiejie, didn't you pat the elixir furnace and use your spiritual power to refine it?"
"No, no, I just feel distressed that the elixir furnace was covered in dust because you didn't cherish it at all. I just want it to be cleaner. "
Zhou Qingfeng and the young lady exchanged a few words, and the surrounding crowd pricked up their ears to listen. Everyone wanted to figure out how this pill was refined. This was a rare opportunity to recreate the process of refining pills, and they might even be able to learn some real skills from it.
However, after explaining a few times, Zhou Qingfeng still pointed at the young lady and congratulated her, "Elder Sister, you don't have to be modest anymore. I don't know how to refine pills. "Jiejie, Jiejie," Jiejie, "Jiejie,", "Jiejie, you,", and, "Jiejie,", ",", ",", "", ",", ",", ",", ",", and ",", ",", ",", " "There must be some secrets in it that are not convenient to explain in front of everyone. I understand, I understand!"
Zhou Qingfeng said it openly, and everyone suddenly realized — it turned out that this elixir was made by the young lady of the Ye Family secretly using a secret method. She definitely wouldn't say it clearly.
Even Young Master Ye pulled his wife up and comforted her, "You don't need to say more. The details naturally don't need to be made public. I know that my wife has been working hard all these years. It's really not easy to get this elixir now. It's rare, too rare. "
The others complimented her again, and no one insisted on exploring the secret. After entering the Oniguchi Mound, the young lady of the Ye Family was obsessed with alchemy. She even wanted to refine it while riding on a mule. Everyone recognized his level. As for Uncle Zhou, he didn't look like a skilled alchemist at all. He was just a naughty child.
Fan Wan 'er bowed to the young lady and said softly and slowly, "It's our good fortune to be able to see sister-in-law Ye refine a fourth-grade elixir with our own eyes. We naturally don't dare to covet the secret alchemy skill passed down in sister-in-law's family. But what is the name of this elixir and what is its effect? Can you let me know? "
This question aroused everyone's curiosity again.
Seeing that everyone was staring at her, the young lady of the Ye Family hesitated. She looked at Zhou Qingfeng and asked, "What did you throw into the furnace?"
Young Master Ye interrupted, "This is about the secret of the elixir recipe. It's better to ask in private." He had regarded everything related to the elixir as his family's secret, and he didn't want others to know. As for Zhou Qingfeng's contribution in alchemy, he could at most give him some silver after the event. He was not afraid that he wouldn't make it clear.
Everyone was annoyed that they couldn't know the elixir recipe. After all, even a recipe of a fourth-grade elixir was extremely precious. Fan Wan 'er didn't want to give up, so she asked Young Master Ye in a pleading tone, "Master Ye, I don't know how to refine elixirs, I'm just curious. Since it's not convenient to say the elixir recipe, the effects of this elixir should be able to answer my questions. "
Young Master Ye hesitated for a while, but he couldn't stand fairy Fan's bewitching eyes. He looked at his wife and asked with his eyes. The young lady reached out to pick up the sparkling elixir and sniffed it, then licked it with the tip of her tongue. Her expression suddenly changed. She glared at Zhou Qingfeng and pulled him to the side.
Fan Wan 'er and the others wanted to follow, but Young Master Ye hurriedly stopped them and shouted, "Everyone, everyone, please wait. This is a private conversation between my wife and her new disciple. It's best if you don't get too close. "
Everyone immediately laughed mockingly. Only Fairy Fan let out a few coquettish sounds and threw a coquettish glance at him. But this time, Young Master Ye didn't want to give way. The others were helpless.
The young lady pulled Zhou Qingfeng far away, away from the crowd, and asked in a low voice, "Just what medicinal ingredients did you throw in?"
The young lady of the Ye family was in her early twenties, but she was a bit shorter than Zhou Qingfeng. Her baby face was serious, and Zhou Qingfeng couldn't help but ask, "What's sister's name? How should I address you? "
The young lady was embarrassed. She also felt that it was disrespectful not to say her name. She thought for a while and said, "My original surname was Wen. After I married, I became Ye Wen. You can call me Madam Ye. "
"Sister Wen." Zhou Qingfeng deliberately called her sweetly. In his opinion, changing one's surname after marriage was feudal rubbish that had to be banned. Calling her sister was more loving. The young lady was startled and wanted to correct him, but Zhou Qingfeng continued, "I just threw in the ghost lotus I collected, and then some other medicinal ingredients I got along the way."
When Zhou Qingfeng was refining the Ghost Grain Pill, he learned many of the special medicinal ingredients of Onigumo from the cellar of the bald barbarian Ba Tu. He saw that there were many in the Drowning Swamp, so he collected them and threw them into the cauldron with the ghost lotus to refine. Wen Xiaoniang listened carefully and exclaimed, "All Yin medicinal ingredients? You can refine it like this? This doesn't conform to the pharmacology of the monarch, the minister, and the assistant. "
Zhou Qingfeng shrugged. When it came to pharmacology, he really didn't understand.
Wen Xiaoniangzi hurriedly flipped through the few prescriptions and medical books on her mule. Finally, with a panicked expression, she pulled her husband Young Master Ye far away and said in a low voice, "Husband, this is the Ghost King Pill recorded in my family's medical book. Don't underestimate it because it's only a fourth-grade pill. It's as rare as a sixth-grade or seventh-grade pill. "
"What?" Young Master Ye was also surprised.
"This is really the Ghost King Pill. It's not for people, but for ghosts." The young lady was very excited as she said, "We can really enter the second layer of Onigumo Mound. With this pill, we can definitely lead the Ghost King guarding the second layer's gate away. If we can enter the second layer of Onigumo Mound, we can collect the bones left by the old ancestor of the Ye Family. Maybe we can … "
The young lady lowered her voice in the last few words, "Recently, Onigumo Mound has been very lively. Even Headmaster Ye He, who has never cared about Onigumo Mound and only collects money, has brought people in. I heard that Ice Phoenix is in Onigumo Mound, and Chu Ying of Jianzhou also died here. It's rumored that the treasure may be born. We … Even if we can't get that treasure, it's good to enter the second layer of Onigumo Mound. "
Anyone could enter the first layer of Onigumo Mound, and the second layer needed to defeat the Ghost King guarding the gate. The third layer was said to lead to the underworld, which was not the world of the living. It was strange and deep, but there were many adventures that mortals couldn't imagine.
Hearing this, Young Master Ye was also excited. He looked at the pill in his wife's hand and quickly ordered, "Keep it, keep it well. Don't tell anyone about it."
The young lady nodded, but she pulled her husband and said, "I won't tell anyone, and my husband is not allowed to tell anyone."
"Of course, I won't tell anyone."
"If the fox spirit surnamed Fan asks you, will you tell it?"
Young Master Ye was suddenly speechless and said impatiently, "My wife, you are too narrow-minded. Fairy Fan is also a well-educated and reasonable person. She certainly won't ask randomly."
"But she just asked."
"That's because she doesn't know that this pill is precious, so she asked unintentionally. My wife, this woman is easily jealous, but she is one of the seven xiu. How can you make your husband so unhappy? "
It was the young lady's turn to be speechless. After a long time, she replied with grievance, "I don't dare. But I always feel that this fox spirit has ulterior motives. The guards around her are annoying. And that Scholar Yue also seems a bit off. Even that Zhou brat is very strange. I always feel that the outsiders in our group are not easy to get along with. My husband should be more careful. "
Hearing his wife call Fan Wan 'er a fox spirit, Young Master Ye was somewhat displeased. But when he heard his wife say that Zhou Qingfeng was also a bit strange, he laughed angrily and said, "My wife is too suspicious. That Zhou brat is only at the second level of Qi Blood. It's just that the puppet wolf he is riding is a bit special."
"I don't think that brat is someone who cultivates Qi Blood. He seems to cultivate the soul," the young lady argued. "The matter of refining the pill just now is too suspicious. I really didn't do anything. I have a feeling that this Ghost King Pill was refined by him."
Young Master Ye was truly amused. "If that brat could refine a fourth level Ghost King Pill, would he do it in front of us? Everyone saw that he was completely reckless. If he really had that ability, would he have given the pill to us so easily? My wife, don't worry too much. "
Hearing her husband's reassurance, the young lady became even more uneasy. She didn't dare to talk back to her husband anymore. She could only silently say in her heart, 'Maybe that brat is a reckless person. He casually refined this rare Ghost King Pill and then casually threw it away like it was an old shoe. It's just that our horizons are too shallow and we treat this pill as a treasure. Who can say for sure what happens in this world? '
The husband and wife were chatting privately when they suddenly saw Second Young Master Ye rushing over and shouting, "Big Brother, Sister-in-law, something bad has happened. There are many ghosts around us and they're surrounding us."
