"The transparent elixir is refined like glass, and once the pill is made, it is round and round, but also as fragile as glass."
Arriving at the hall, Zhou Youzi looked at the broken elixir and shook his head slightly.
"Then is this thing still useful?" Mother Chen's face was filled with hope.
"The elixir shattered into pieces and lost its efficacy. It is still of some use to monks, but ordinary people's mortal bodies cannot lock the power of the medicine." Zhou Youzi glanced at Mother Chen, "Ordinary people swallow it
When taking elixirs, you can only use twenty-three out of ten. Unless you can swallow them every day, they will not be as effective as those of monks. However, elixirs are difficult to refine and no one can really eat them.
.”
How not!
Chen Cuo was anxious beside him, thinking that if you get out of the way and let me go up with the gourd, I would swallow pills every night. Believe it or not?
Watching the time passing by, he couldn't go back in time. If it lasted more than an hour, the opportunity would be wasted!
Feeling anxious, Chen Cuo saw Chen's mother annoyed and took the initiative to say: "Since it is useless, why not give it to me as a thought. I have been thinking very hard and put a lot of thought into this thing in the past few days.
I don’t want to end up in vain.”
As soon as he said it, he attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
That Zhou Youzi also took advantage of the situation and looked at Chen Cuo, and then he was stunned.
"What?" Chen Cuo noticed Zhou Youzi's surprise.
Zhou Youzi sighed with emotion: "I never thought that in just five days, the monarch would be able to earn a small amount of hope. At this moment, his popularity is still rising!"
As soon as this statement came out, Chen's mother and others were all surprised.
Chen Cuo couldn't help but hesitate and asked: "How did you see it, sir? What's the trick?"
People think that this thing is intangible and has no quality. It sounds mysterious and empty, but you can still quantify it?
"If you can cultivate and embark on the path of seeking the Tao, you will naturally know." Zhou Youzi still did not want to explain.
Chen Cuo secretly pouted.
However, Zhou Youzi's next words instantly brought his thoughts back to the matter in front of him——
"The prince has such a high reputation. Although the pill is broken, Mo He can still give it a try."
Chen Cuo was surprised, and then he was happy, secretly saying that it was exactly what I wanted.
Mother Chen seemed to wake up suddenly, looked at her second son, pondered for a moment, and shook her head.
She said: "Sir, please come here to deal with the matter of the elixir. We should wait for the rest. You said that the elixir was broken and has no effect. I am ashamed. It is ridiculous and pity that such an immortal fate was ruined in the hands of a villain.
I wonder if there is any other way to remedy this? Sir, we have a deep connection with the royal family. If necessary in the future, my family will do our best!"
Chen Cuo couldn't help but look sideways and thought to himself, this cheap mother is really shameless for the sake of her eldest son. This is a euphemism, but she is openly asking for follow-up benefits. The problem is, it is clearly the palace that caused the trouble, and she kindly gave the medicine, why?
Responsible for after-sales service?
Sure enough, Zhou Youzi shook his head and said, "I just got the pill, there is nothing extra."
Mother Chen opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she couldn't.
Chen Cuo took advantage of the opportunity and said: "In that case, can you give me this elixir as a souvenir?" He brought up the old things again, with a look of reluctance.
Zhou Youzi finally responded: "This elixir has been promised to the palace. It belongs to the palace. How can I make the decision?"
Chen Cuo understood and looked at Chen's mother.
Chen's mother was feeling annoyed, and when she saw Chen Wong's eyes, she would scold her out of habit, but suddenly she thought that her second son had been silent for five days, and she had little hope after being identified by Zhou Youzi, and she had heard people say it before.
Now that he has articles circulating, is he really capable? At this thought, he couldn't help but think more, so after pondering, he actually nodded.
Chen Cuo was overjoyed to see it and came up to get it.
Chen's mother said, "Why are you so anxious? I haven't seen you, sir. Isn't he still here?"
Chen Cuo paused, feeling anxious. There was only one hour left, and there was not much left.
Zhou Youzi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. Your Majesty, take it and put it away first. When you come back, I have something to say to you, but I have to wait until you are calm. At this moment, you are not sure, so you should get what you want first."
Can."
"Okay, come back soon!" Chen Cuo's favorable impression of Zhou Youzi immediately rose to a higher level. No matter how he liked it, he liked it. When he saw Chen's mother agreeing, he hurriedly closed the lid, turned around and left.
When Chen Hai saw it, he tried to catch up, but Chen Cuo waved his hand to stop him and said, "Wait here. If anything happens, come back and report it."
When Chen Hai heard the first half of the sentence, he felt chilled in his heart. When he heard the second half, he smiled brightly, thinking that he trusted me and asked me to be the spy for the prince!
He immediately nodded and accepted the order, straightened his back and stared into the room.
Chen Cuo then left quickly.
In the room, Chen's mother called Chen He and gave a few instructions. The latter bowed and left. Then, she said to Zhou Youzi: "Sir, what do you have to say to my second son? Just now you said that my second son is fine.
Xiao Wang, could this be related to this?"
Zhou Youzi sighed first, then nodded and said: "I made a mistake. I thought that the ladies in your house were more talented. Unexpectedly, the princes are also outstanding people. Maybe they are also the legacy of the late king, and their children are all successful...
…”
Before the two of them had exchanged a few words, Chen Cuo had already returned with a bright look on his face. It was obvious that he had got what he wanted. The elixir had already been put into the gourd, and he was waiting for him to fall asleep and go to Mengze to check it out.
As soon as he arrived at the room, he immediately saluted Zhou Youzi with a glowing face and said, "Sir, you want to talk to me about something. I wonder what it is about?"
Zhou Youzi did not answer, but cupped his hands at Mother Chen and said, "Madam, please prepare a private room so that I can explain it clearly to you."
Chen Cuo was stunned.
Do you want to have a private chat with yourself?
"This is against the rules." Before anyone else could say anything, Chen Hai took the first step and said, "How can you talk to people alone if you are a prince with a daughter of gold?"
Mother Chen waved her hand, stopped Chen Hai, pondered for a moment, and said: "Since it is your request, it's OK. I know your character, so I can naturally trust you!"
"Thank you, madam!" Zhou Youzi cupped his hands and smiled.
Chen Cuo was thinking, if it were Chen Fangtai, the cheaper brother, whether Chen's mother could still be so straightforward.
Chen's mother said to him at this time: "Since sir, I have something to say to you alone, it must be an important matter. You must listen carefully and there must be no negligence!"
"My child understands." Chen Cuo knew that this was a hint to him that he would tell everything about the conversation later, but he didn't take it seriously and had to wait until he knew the content before making a decision.
In the Nankang Palace, with Mother Chen's orders, there will be no obstacles.
After a cup of tea, Chen Cuo was able to sit in the side room and face Taoist Ban Xin alone.
"Junhou wrote an article recently."
Zhou Youzi asked first.
Chen Cuo was slightly surprised, then nodded and said the name "Painted Skin".
Just as Chen Cuo was thinking about it, could the wanderer this week want to ask for advice on how to improve his popularity? Or maybe he was curious about the creation process and background of "Painted Skin"?
Unexpectedly, Zhou Youzi took out two pieces of yellow paper from his arms, raised his hand and flicked it, and the yellow paper flew out and landed on the crack of the door and window, as if it was stuck to them.
The next moment, vermilion appeared on the paper, and the lines spread and intersected, forming a complex rune.
Buzz! Buzz!
Two sounds in a row, the doors and windows trembled, and everything fell silent.
Chen Cuo opened his eyes wide at first, watching the vermilion seal appear out of thin air, and then noticed that the sound that could still be heard faintly came in, but after the door and window shook, it became silent.
He immediately became alert.
"You don't need to worry, sir. This is to isolate the ears of others." Zhou Youzi smiled slightly and sat on the chair. "What I'm going to say next is not allowed to be known to ordinary people in my school. We cultivate our hearts and bless our hearts with precepts.
, if you break the precepts easily, your cultivation will regress. Even if it is unintentionally revealed, as long as you know it afterwards, you will still be affected. In order to prevent the slightest mistake, I am isolated from the ordinary world. I hope you can understand."
Chen Cuo took a deep breath, thinking that in this situation, the old Taoist priest should not dare to cause trouble in the house, so he also sat down and asked: "What do you want to say, sir?"
Zhou Youzi nodded and got straight to the point——
"Where did you get the method of cultivating the Incense Path?"
