141. Chapter 141 The duel between fire and cauldron
The fourth round of the elixir test was not held immediately. Considering that Yue Jinghua and Lie Sisi had exhausted their energy, the elixir test was scheduled to be held an hour later.
While Yue Jinghua was taking a rest, a man wearing dimple clothes walked in and said a few words in Mrs. Yao's ear. Yue Jinghua's five senses could naturally hear the conversation between the two clearly.
.
The man said: "Madam, something serious has happened. Mr. Chen, the grandson of Elder Chen in Danlu, was injured and was just carried back."
Mrs. Yao's expression immediately changed. It turned out that the alchemist who pretended to be "Chen Jiangyin" was really an alchemist from the Alchemy House, but he was not even a junior alchemy master in the Alchemy House. This time
Entrusted by his grandfather, he sent something to Mrs. Shi and stayed in Poluo City for a few days.
I don’t know whether it was vanity or a drunkenness that caused the poor Mr. Chen to actually claim to be the evil prodigy Shen Jiangyin from Danlu, and he started to fool around.
The previous few times, Mrs. Yao had been taking care of her, so there was no big trouble. But this morning, Mrs. Yao came into the palace to preside over this time's alchemist assessment, and Mr. Chen called "Chen Jiangyin" again.
Go out and show off your reputation.
Unexpectedly, he was in trouble this time. He was first blocked at the entrance of the restaurant, and then fell to the ground inexplicably. When he was carried back to the station in the city, it was said that he was already unconscious.
Even after asking several junior alchemists from the clinic to check it out, they couldn't find a reason. Now a servant came to report it, saying that it was probably out of cure.
"Even if I use a high-level elixir, I still have to give him a breath of relief. I immediately take the five-headed ginseng I treasured and give it to him to swallow. As long as he still has a breath and sends it back to the Danlu, Master Shen will definitely
"I can save him," Mrs. Yao was also anxious. If he died in her place in Boluo City, she would really have no excuses.
"But madam, Master Shen doesn't save people easily. If he knew that Master Chen had assumed his identity, he would probably leave immediately," the subordinate worried.
"Huh, stupid. Since I couldn't tell him the truth, I just said that when Mr. Chen went out on behalf of Danlu, he accidentally met a free alchemist and insulted Danlu and Shen Jiangyin himself. Mr. Chen couldn't listen to it, so he took action to fight with him.
There was a conflict,"
Jiang is still old and spicy. When she heard that Mr. Chen had no injuries or scars on his body, she guessed that he must have been mentally attacked by someone else. It is said that after Shen Jiangyin reached the pinnacle of alchemy, he began to pay attention to mental attacks in the past few years.
Mysterious skills.
After taking the servants away, Mrs. Yao looked at Yue Jinghua with a sinister look, only to see the latter talking absentmindedly to Concubine Sha. She couldn't help but secretly thought that the servants just said that Mr. Chen had an affair with a man before he fell into coma.
The ugly woman surnamed Yue got into a fight. Calculating the time, it happened to be the time when Yue Jinghua was late. Could it be that Mr. Chen's unprovoked injury was related to Yue Jinghua?
On the other side, Yue Jinghua and Sha Fei were chatting.
Concubine Sha was obviously much closer to Yue Jinghua today than in the past few days. I don't know if it was because Yue Jinghua had performed well just now, or maybe it was something else.
During the tea time, Sha Fei and Yue Jinghua sisters were already commensurate with each other, "Sister, I heard that you divorced Prince Fa a few days ago. My sister is really thinking about it. He is also a prince after all," Sha Fei pursed her lips and smiled.
asked.
This incident was also widely spread in the palace.
"Sister Sha, do you think a woman is happy when she marries a powerful person?" Yue Jinghua glanced at Fa Xiaoyun not far away, and saw that he and Lie Sisi were having a good conversation, but Fa Xiaoyi didn't know where to go.
Where did it go.
Yue Jinghua was wary and took a look secretly, and found that besides Fa Xiaoyi, Qin Gang was also missing.
Concubine Sha seemed to be puzzled by the question, her face became a little darker, she glanced at Fa Xiaoyun again, and said gloomily: "My sister is young, but she thinks thoroughly. It's just a woman, if she doesn't rely on a man, she will
What can be done?”
"I'm telling you a story. The story begins with a martial girl..." Yue Jinghua said slowly. When the fourth round of the elixir test began, she had just finished telling her story.
Sha Fei's expression remained normal, but the handkerchief she held in her hand was already soaked through.
"In the fourth round of the competition, the elixir is called Yingshen Pills. It was prepared by Miao Danshi, a retired Danlu alchemist, based on the constitution of Concubine Sha. It can protect and nourish the fetus," Madam Yao announced the fourth round.
Taoist prescription.
As soon as the prescription came out, Yue Jinghua and Lie Sisi were both stunned. Yingshen Pill?
Ying Shen Pill is also a mid-level spiritual elixir, but the difficulty of this elixir is comparable to that of Zhen Xuan Dan.
The biggest difficulty in refining Heche Pills is not that the medicinal properties are incompatible with each other like Zhenxuan Dan, but the process of refining the pills.
Yingshen Pills are made from a fourth-level spiritual grass called Yingshen. This kind of Scrophulariaceae is different from ordinary ginseng and ordinary spiritual grasses. It has hands and feet, and it can run all over the mountains and plains on weekdays.
It takes extremely special methods to catch it.
When using it to refine Yingshen pills, you must also ensure the freshness of the medicinal materials. You must not kill the Yingshen, but use the Dan Fire Formation to slowly refine it.
During this process, Ying Shenhui made baby-like cries from time to time. The cries have a strong effect of charming people. If the alchemist who makes alchemy hears it, he will feel a hair in his heart. If he is not careful, he will
Alchemy failed.
Yue Jinghua and Lie Sisi were both Huanghua's eldest daughters, and it was their first time meeting Ying Shen.
Mrs. Yao ordered two medicine baskets to be sent over. The tops of the medicine baskets were sealed with mysterious force. She grabbed the two baskets with her left and right hands, and heard "嘤嘤嘤嘤" for a while.
A creepy baby crying sound came from the basket.
Mrs. Yao grabbed two baby ginsengs.
Each baby ginseng looks like two miniature babies. It is a ball of powder, the leaves on its body are like the sparse hair of a baby, and the fat ginseng whiskers are like its limbs. It looks lifelike.
"Two girls, you can each take an infant ginseng. As long as whoever refines the elixir is the first and it works well after Concubine Sha takes it," Mrs. Yao casually threw the infant ginseng towards the two of them.
.
Lie Sisi was already prepared. As soon as she hit the Golden Toad Cauldron, the Cauldron flew up, opened the Golden Toad's big mouth, and swallowed the infant ginseng. The cauldron made "嘤嘤" sounds from time to time.
"The cry.
Yue Jinghua had never held a baby in her previous life or in this life. When Mrs. Yao threw it over, she deliberately made things difficult and deliberately untied the profound energy restraints on the baby ginseng.
I saw a "baby" with claws and claws rushing over. The originally pink baby-like appearance became extremely fierce. Sharp thorns appeared in the crying mouth, and it bit Yue Jinghua's cheek in one bite.
fingers.
Unexpectedly, such a bite not only did not bite Yue Jinghua, but she was held down by her backhand and tied up with her "soft fingers".
"The little guy learns very quickly when he turns his back on others." Fortunately, Yue Jinghua took into account the upcoming alchemy and specially put on snapping turtle gloves, so she didn't get bitten.
However, even though Ying Shen was subdued, she still let out shrill cries from time to time that made her eardrums swell, which annoyed Yue Jinghua.
Secretly using the Nine Transformation Star-Making Technique to drive away the irritability in her heart, Yue Jinghua pondered for a moment and suddenly said loudly: "Mrs. Yao, please prepare a jar of good old wine for me."
The old wine was delivered shortly, and Li Sisi had already started refining the elixir.
However, Yue Jinghua calmly opened the seal of the old wine. After taking a sip, he showed a somewhat intoxicated expression. Then he took out a large gold-patterned bowl from his arms and scooped up a bowl of wine.
, it seems that he planned to start drinking directly at Izumo-den.
"How dare you, Yue Jinghua, be so arrogant in front of the king," Fa Xiaoyi slapped the table and stood up.
"Prince Fa, why are you panicking? This wine is not brought from your warehouse," Yue Jinghua said mockingly, holding up a big bowl, "But speaking of it, the wine in this palace is really not as good as the wine in your house."
The wine in the warehouse is good. I remember that there are fifty jars of fine 'Yun Honey Wine' stored in the prince's warehouse."
Just as Yue Jinghua spoke, Fa Xiaoyun, the king of the Shang Kingdom, changed his face and glared at Fa Xiaoyi.
This cloud honey wine is a specialty of a sub-city of the Shang Kingdom. It can only produce a hundred jars a year at most, and the tribute sent to the palace every year is only ten jars. Unexpectedly, Fa Xiaoyi's mansion actually has so much wine. It seems that there is so much wine in the palace.
This younger brother of his is really secretive.
Fa Xiaoyi's complexion was white and red, and he did not dare to say any more, fearing that Yue Jinghua would talk nonsense again, so he could only sit down in a dull tone.
Lie Sisi, who was refining alchemy, gave Yue Jinghua a look.
Yue Jinghua raised the big bowl, but instead of drinking, she poured the whole bowl of wine into Shen Ying's mouth. Ying Shen, who was crying non-stop, became bloated after being fed several bowls of wine.
When he got up, his tender ginger-colored body also turned pink, like cooked shrimp, and he burped from time to time.
Only then did everyone realize that Yue Jinghua wanted wine just to get him "drunk" with Ying Ginseng.
As soon as Yingshen was drunk, Yue Jinghua started to refine the elixir. She quickly selected all the medicinal materials for refining Yingshen, added them to the alchemy cauldron one by one, and then ignited the alchemy fire array.
Lie Sisi watched Yue Jinghua's every move with cold eyes. The two were competing in the same competition, so they were very close. Yue Jinghua's skillful operation just now was actually much more proficient than her in alchemy. Lie Sisi knew that she
If we don't use the Golden Toad Cauldron today, I'm afraid we will definitely lose.
Why, how could an ugly-looking, inexperienced loser turn from a person who was inexperienced in alchemy to an expert in alchemy in just a few months? Then her efforts in the past three years were nothing.
Zhen Ni, Zhen Ni, could it be that you were oppressed by Yue Xiaoqi in your previous life, and after you are reborn in this life, you will be at the mercy of this ugly woman again?
No, she would never allow the same thing to happen to her again. Lie Sisi's face showed a similar crazy expression.
