The training of the Imperial Guard continued in exploration, and all kinds of bumps and bumps were inevitable. Zhou Qingfeng studied how to command an army according to the book every day, and his two companions also participated. Since the supply of materials was much better than that of Zai and Kulun, although there were constant jokes and setbacks in the process of exploration, it was also a kind of progress to expose mistakes and shortcomings.
The construction of the army was the most important thing to save lives in troubled times. During the day, Zhou Qingfeng spent all his time on the training ground of the coal mining village. However, he left the cultural education to Li Shuwei, and he went to find Guo Buyi. He hoped that this grand cultivator could solve the problem of the poor physique of the Imperial Guard, and also to test if they could join hands to deal with Li Yongfang.
It had been more than ten days since they returned from Onitsuka, but Guo Buyi still closed the door and refused to see outsiders. Zhou Qingfeng was not an outsider. He shouted a few times outside the Guo Family's study room, and Guo Jiao came out to greet him in person.
"Sister Guo Jiao, how is your father?" Zhou Qingfeng followed Guo Jiao, tilting his head to look at her. This delicate girl used to be casual and lazy, but after the trip to Onitsuka, she became much more dignified and calm. Her hands and feet no longer moved freely, and her expression changed less, which made people feel strange and boring.
"After coming back, I wanted to invite you to thank you in a few days, but my father's health is not very good, so it has been delayed. Brother Zhou Qingfeng, please don't blame me. "Guo Jiao spoke appropriately, and she specially knelt to apologize to Zhou Qingfeng.
Zhou Qingfeng was scared and reached out his hand, "Sister, please don't say that. It makes me feel very uncomfortable. We are helping each other in Onitsuka, and you treat me as a stranger. What are you thanking me for? If I coveted this, I wouldn't have risked my life to go to Onitsuka. "
Master Zhou really coveted the power and background of the Guo Family, but he still had to put it nicely. Even if he admitted that he coveted Guo Jiao's beauty, he couldn't say that he was afraid that Guo Buyi would be doomed and that he would be in trouble.
Zhou Qingfeng said it casually and intimately. Guo Jiao was really happy to hear that. She led him through the bookstore to the back. Only then did Zhou Qingfeng realize that the study room he had seen in the past was only a part of it. The backyard was very big, and there was even a waterside pavilion with a winding path leading to a secluded place.
"Where did Flat Hair go?" Zhou Qingfeng asked. Without the puppet bird, no one would argue with him anymore.
"My father suffered too much from going to Onizuka this time. Flat Hair brought some of the goods my father refined to the market in the Central Plains. Firstly, I want to earn some money, and secondly, I need some materials to refine pills. "Guo Jiao said.
Guo Buyi really suffered a big loss from going to Onitsuka this time. He fought too hard with Mangurtai, and his net worth had shrunk greatly. Hearing this, Zhou Qingfeng immediately had an idea and said, "Senior Guo, what kind of pills are you going to refine? Maybe I can help. "
As expected, Guo Jiao looked at Zhou Qingfeng intently and said with an idea in her heart, "I heard from Flat Hair that you have the ability to turn something rotten into something magical. Even my father praised the Heavenly Spirit Pill you refined. The materials you used are not very rare, but you used up the spiritual power in my family's Spirit Gathering Formation. My father needs a few pills to nourish his foundation, but he can't find them anywhere. It would be great if you can help. "
Guo Jiao had no doubt about Zhou Qingfeng's ability. She was not in a hurry to take Zhou Qingfeng to see Guo Buyi. She turned around and took him to the alchemy room. Compared with Zhou Qingfeng's simple fourth-grade alchemy furnace, the Guo family's alchemy room was much more magnificent. It was like the difference between a small chemical workshop and a large biochemical laboratory.
As soon as Zhou Qingfeng came in, he saw a large alchemy furnace in the middle of the alchemy room, just like the one Taishang Laojun used to refine Sun Wukong. In front of the alchemy furnace, there was a Taoist cultivator sitting cross-legged. He was resting with his eyes closed and looked peaceful.
Zhou Qingfeng thought it was Guo Buyi sitting there. He wanted to go forward to greet him, but when he got closer, he found that he didn't know him. The cultivator sensed Zhou Qingfeng's approach. He opened his eyes slightly, then raised his hand and pushed Zhou Qingfeng away, causing him to stagger a few steps.
Guo Jiao didn't introduce the cultivator. She just shook her head at Zhou Qingfeng, signaling Zhou Qingfeng to ignore the strange man. Then, she pointed at the alchemy furnace and said with a smile, "My father is an expert in the art of mechanical puppets, but he only dabbles in the art of alchemy. This is the 'Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace' he bought with a lot of money ten years ago. It's just that he hasn't been able to use it to its full potential. "
The furnace in the alchemy room was shining brightly and surrounded by auspicious clouds. The mouth of the furnace was open, letting out a gust of fresh air. Zhou Qingfeng was given the cold shoulder by the cultivator in Daoist robe. He turned around and glanced at the cauldron, then said timidly, "I actually don't know how to concoct pills, I just try my luck. I don't know if I can give it a try, so I don't waste precious materials. "
Hearing that Zhou Qingfeng wanted to use the alchemy furnace to make alchemy, the cultivator opened his eyes and looked at Zhou Qingfeng. He didn't talk to Zhou Qingfeng, but asked Guo Jiao, "Junior Sister, who is this?"
Zhou Qingfeng also looked at the cultivator. He felt that he was as old as Guo Buyi. He was actually Guo Jiao's senior brother?
Guo Jiao pointed at Zhou Qingfeng and said with a smile, "He is Zhou Qingfeng."
"Ah …. You are the rumored number one in the world?" The cultivator said with a mocking tone and an exaggerated expression. Just a moment ago, he looked calm and steady like a master, but in the blink of an eye, he looked like he was looking at Granny Liu. He looked up and down at Zhou Qingfeng and said with a sneer, "You are only at the second level of Divine Soul and the first level of Muscles and Bones. How can you be so arrogant? I didn't hear you refute the rumor. "
After the cultivator taunted him, he waited for Zhou Qingfeng to say a few humble words respectfully. Maybe Zhou Qingfeng would lower his head to show that he was not worthy of his reputation. Zhou Qingfeng was actually in a good mood when he saw Guo Jiao. But he was unhappy after hearing a few words from this cultivator.
Guo Jiao was well protected by Guo Buyi, so she was a little ignorant of the world. She didn't think much about it and felt that she should explain the situation in Onizuka. The title of "number one in the world" was not wrong for Zhou Qingfeng. After all, not everyone could beat Mangurtai so badly that he doubted his life.
But before Guo Jiao could speak, Zhou Qingfeng chose to ignore the man's provocation. He rushed to say to Guo Jiao, "Let's make alchemy first. Don't delay the business. Let's find a simple place to try. "
Finding that Zhou Qingfeng didn't care about him at all, the cultivator in the Daoist robe suddenly became angry. He was Guo Jiao's Senior Brother Apprentice, which was ranked according to seniority. In terms of age, he was really similar to Guo Buyi.
Guo Jiao had become much more mature after coming out of Onizuka, but she was naive and didn't think there was anything wrong with what Zhou Qingfeng said. She was a freewheeling person. Since Zhou Qingfeng didn't want to explain, she didn't bother to say anything.
"Okay." Guo Jiao replied to Zhou Qingfeng. She also wanted to be cautious. After all, the materials of the elixir Guo Buyi needed were not ordinary. If she rashly made it, she was worried that she would mess it up. "Just make a Mixed Elements Infusion Pill. It can consolidate the corporeity, nourish the Qi, and cultivate the body. It can also regulate the muscles and bones and regulate the Qi and blood. It's not difficult to make it!"
The cultivator in the Daoist robe immediately said with a smile, "Junior Sister Apprentice, the Mixed Elements Infusion Pill can't be made easily. It's an authentic third-grade elixir. I know you are worried about Martial Uncle's injury, but some things can't be rushed. Just leave the elixir to me. Don't worry about it. After half a year's recuperation, I guarantee that Martial Uncle will recover to his original state. "
Guo Jiao hesitated for a moment and looked back at Zhou Qingfeng. Zhou Qingfeng also looked at Guo Jiao and said, "Before I did it, Mangurtai also thought he would win."
"Pfft …" Guo Jiao was amused.
In the battle on the Reincarnation Platform in the Underworld, Zhou Qingfeng showed his power and prestige. As soon as this was mentioned, Guo Jiao was immediately full of confidence in Zhou Qingfeng. Every time she thought of Mangurtai's stupefied look when he was shot away by Zhou Qingfeng, Guo Jiao felt very satisfied.
"I'll get some medicinal materials." Guo Jiao turned around and took out a lot of raw materials needed for alchemy from the shelf beside the wall of the Elixir Room. Zhou Qingfeng grabbed them and threw them into the Elixir Furnace. Wen Ruolan of the Ye Family had taught him how to throw the materials elegantly and professionally, but he returned to his old ways in the blink of an eye. He threw all the medicinal materials into the Elixir Furnace as if they were fodder for pigs.
The cultivator in the Daoist robe couldn't sit still. He pointed at Zhou Qingfeng and scolded, "Junior Sister Apprentice, how is he alchemy? He's clearly spoiling things. This guy still has the face to call himself 'the first in the world'. Nowadays, the younger generation not only have no respect for their elders, but also are arrogant. He obviously doesn't know anything, but he still dares to pretend to be a great master. Fortunately, I'm here today. Otherwise, I would have been deceived by him. "
After throwing the materials in, Zhou Qingfeng even clapped his hands and shook off the dust. Even Guo Jiao was stunned by his crude technique. This young lady came from a family with a long history of learning. Since she was a child, she had been very careful and serious when it came to alchemy with her father. She needed to pour a mysterious piety into the process of alchemy. To put it bluntly, alchemy was too complicated. Success or failure was like metaphysics, and most of it depended on luck.
However, Zhou Qingfeng was too casual. He even asked Guo Jiao, "How do I use this Elixir Furnace?"
In fact, Guo Jiao didn't really know how to use this' Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace '. She learned about Zhou Qingfeng's amazing alchemy from Flat Hair, and she also learned about the powerful effects of Zhou Qingfeng's medicinal pills from her father. She subconsciously thought that Zhou Qingfeng would know how to use this complicated and large Elixir Furnace. However, she didn't expect that Uncle Zhou Qingfeng was an idiot. He really didn't know how to use it.
Guo Jiao turned around and looked at her Senior Brother Apprentice. That Daoist robe cultivator couldn't wait to see Zhou Qingfeng make a fool of himself. Why would he help? Guo Jiao could only do it herself. After waving her hand to close the lid of the furnace, she said to Zhou Qingfeng, "This' Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace 'is very mysterious. Even my father couldn't understand all of it. You … you can just pour your spiritual energy into it and refine whatever you want. "
Since things had come to this, Guo Jiao still had to maintain Zhou Qingfeng's face. No matter what she refined, she felt that she had to pinch her nose and accept it. As for the effects of the medicinal pills she refined … it all depended on how Zhou Qingfeng had randomly thrown the medicinal ingredients around. Guo Jiao already didn't have high hopes.
And for some reason, Zhou Qingfeng's alchemy process this time seemed to be especially strenuous. In the past, he had solved the problem in a matter of minutes. But this time, he had stood in front of the furnace for more than two hours. His spiritual energy was completely exhausted, but this broken furnace didn't have any reaction at all. On the other hand, Guo Jiao comforted him, "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. It's just a test."
After waiting for four hours, Zhou Qingfeng's legs were already numb from standing. He had exhausted his patience. If he couldn't refine it, then so be it. He didn't have the time to continue daydreaming. He said to Guo Jiao, "It's already been four hours. Open the furnace and see what's going on inside. I'll accept it even if I fail. "
