Volume 2 Chapter Seventy-Nine
Although Su Yingcheng occupies an area far less than other cities in Xiaozhou, it is small and exquisite, and some scenery cannot be experienced elsewhere.
At night, on the shore of the Sky Lantern Lake in Suying City.
Jiufang Ming used the magic yuan power to light the sky lantern, and then Yan Qitong followed suit, the two looked at each other and smiled, and the light of the magic yuan power in the sky lantern was reflected on their faces, shining.
There are also a lot of pedestrians on the lakeside, and ordinary people use fire, and most of them here are former phantom monks who come to pray, and they are usually a couple.
"Two young ladies and gentlemen, you need to write your wish on the sky lantern before you can fly. "A man selling sky lanterns came up with paper and pens in his hands and a few sky lanterns.
Jiufang Ming noticed the paper and pen, then glanced at the sky lantern, and then paid a yuan stone to buy the sky lantern.
The man was speechless with joy, then said something nice, and then turned around.
"Wait. ”
The man just wanted to leave and look for other guests, but was stopped by Yan Qitong.
"Is there any meaning to this sky lantern?" Yan Qitong asked as she felt the temperature of the sky lantern.
Jiufang was stunned, no wonder Yan Qitong had doubts, he had never seen such a thing as a sky lantern in the Wuya Sect for so long, and the sky lantern in the Min Dynasty could be said to be very common.
The man turned around and pointed to the lanterns released by the other phantom monks in the sky, explaining.
"The sky lantern is a symbol of love and good fortune in the world, and the purpose of prayer is achieved by flying the sky lantern. After the man finished speaking, he sent another sky lantern to Yan Qitong.
The countless sky lanterns in the sky finally converged into bits of light and then disappeared.
Jiufang Ming wrote his wish, and then let the sky lantern leave on its own.
The sky lantern successfully floated into the air, and then staggered into the distance, and the dark curtain of the sky was ignited in an instant, and the sky lanterns dotted with each other, and the surface of the lake reflected each other, as if the sky lanterns had fallen to the bottom of the lake.
"My wish is to grow old with you. Jiufang Ming looked at his black hair mixed with white, which had not fully recovered, and said secretly in his heart.
Yan Qitong turned her back and quietly wrote something.
Jiufang Ming did not deliberately peep, and it is estimated that it is no different from what he wrote.
The sky lantern was already ignited by the phantom element force, and it was only about to be released, Yan Qitong finished writing his wish and released the sky lantern.
Jiufang Ming and Yan Qitong watched their sky lanterns swaying and flying into the distance, and there was light flashing in their eyes.
The sky lantern of Jiufang Ming has long disappeared, but Yan Qitong's sky lantern is still fluttering and refuses to leave.
The sky lantern flickered, as if watching the two of them.
stared at it for a long time, then fell weakly into the water and quietly extinguished.
"This ......" Yan Qitong watched her sky lantern being flooded, and her heart was shocked.
Jiufang Ming took out another sky lantern, and then handed it to Yan Qitong, perhaps it was the first time to put the sky lantern, and the action was not too skilled.
Yan Qitong looked at the sky lantern in the water and was lost for a long time.
Yan Qitong lit the sky lantern again, and then headed into the air.
Jiufang Ming looked at the sky lantern that was about to fall again, noticed Yan Qitong's expectant eyes, and his heart moved.
The sky lantern fluttered, but suddenly stabilized its body and flew into the distance.
Yan Qitong looked at Jiufang Ming with satisfaction, but found that Jiufang Ming was even more fascinated than he could see.
The Nine Directions withdrew the Yuan Force, and the sky lantern magically continued to fly into the depths of the Nine Heavens.
"The Holy Map, it can still be used here. "Jiufang Ming's eyes did not have any discomfort, and the phantom yuan power condensed through his eyes was almost no different from the condensed palm of his palm.
Through the phantom power condensed by his eyes, the Nine Directions quietly held up the sky lantern for a while.
The two embraced each other happily, and then found another inn.
However, it seems that only Jiufang Ming noticed that the second sky lantern did not have any wishes written on it.
............
Early the next morning, the two left their respective rooms.
After practicing all night, both of them seemed refreshed.
Yan Qitong's cultivation is the sixth order of the Phantom Master, although he has improved in more than a year, it is far less than the previous speed, and Jiufang Ming also understands that it is mostly because he misses himself.
"Take a trip to the Alchemist Guild here. Jiufang Ming grabbed Yan Qitong's waist and walked out of the inn.
With the map he bought, Jiufang Ming quickly found the Alchemist Guild, and if the area was from the air, it should be no different from the Great Yan Academy.
Walking into the Alchemist Guild, Jiufang Ming noticed an old man looking directly at him.
"This little friend, you can also do alchemy?" An old man with a white beard saw Jiufang Ming and said in surprise, generally those who can come to the Alchemist Guild to determine the grade are mostly middle-aged people, even if there are young people, the final grade is not high, and the waist card he received is only the most ordinary iron waist card.
Jiufang Ming smiled dumbly, if he didn't know how to alchemy, then who else in the world would be able to refine it.
Hearing the old man's question, Yan Qitong also laughed.
"What's the matter, isn't it normal for young people to know how to do alchemy?" Jiufang Ming smiled dumbly and said, thinking that this Su Ying City is a small city, Jiufang Ming didn't say anything more.
"You have such a heart, how can you refine a good pill?" the old man frowned, a little dissatisfied with Jiufang Ming's attitude.
Jiufang Ming smiled indifferently and didn't refute, not too much to get into trouble.
A young man beside the old man saw Jiufang Ming and Yan Qitong, his eyes moved, and after glancing at the old man and Jiufang Ming, he said with a little excitement: "This brother, you and I are both from the Dan Dao, I think it is better to have a discussion here to see whose skills are more superb." ”
Jiufang Ming didn't think about it, and shook his head, this young man is at most the cultivation of a phantom scholar, and the grade is probably not much higher.
"Who told you that alchemy is used to fight? Jiufang Ming looked at Xu Hongye and ignored it, but went straight to the inside of the guild.
As an alchemist, Xu Hongye naturally has arrogance, and when he was refuted by Jiufang Ming, who didn't even have a waist card, he was naturally very annoyed, and the original courtesy had disappeared without a trace at this time.
"If I lose, I will promise you that the pill shop in Su Yingcheng will be free for you. Xu Hongye said ill-intentionedly, just see if the fish of Jiufang Ming will be hooked.
Noticing that Xu Hongye was staring at Yan Qitong beside him, Jiufang couldn't help frowning.
Jiufang was stunned, and turned to look at the arrogant Xu Hongye.
"This is not very good, it is better for us to be higher than a grade, after I finish setting the grade, I will give you a copy of the Xuan-level Illusion Martial Arts, if you lose...... " Jiufang Ming said indifferently.
"Okay, master, am I afraid that you won't succeed, if you can win, you can open the conditions as you like!" Xu Hongye bathed in the eyes of everyone and looked at Jiufang Ming proudly.
"This little brother, Xu Hongye is a third-grade alchemist, and the president of Su Yingcheng's Alchemist Guild is only a fourth-grade alchemist. A young man who cultivated as only an illusion reminded that he didn't want Jiufang to lose all his wealth for a while.
In his opinion, the most that Jiufang Ming could come up with was a book of Xuan-level illusion martial arts.
"Thanks for the reminder. Jiufang Ming nodded, he still had to listen to the kindness of others with an open mind, but this Xu Hongye was aggressive, and he didn't blame himself for being polite.
What disgusted Jiufang Ming the most was Xu Hongye's eyes when he looked at Yan Qitong, mixed with a hint of other meanings.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to take it out then. Xu Hongye looked at Jiufang's slightly ordinary black robe, no different from ordinary people on the street.
Jiufang Ming smiled indifferently, "Don't say it's the Xuan Rank, I have all the Heavenly Rank, I'm afraid that you have a life to take it, but you don't have a life to enjoy." ”
Xu Hongye's eyes were gloomy, and he understood what Jiufang Ming said.
"I'm a third-grade alchemist, what are you?" Xu Hongye took out his waist card and dangled it in front of Jiufang Ming.
Jiufang smiled dumbly, "Even if the president of the Min Dynasty Alchemy Guild comes, he will salute me." ”
When the old man heard this, he shook his head, presumably the young man was talking wildly for a while, and he didn't care too much.
Xu Hongye heard it inexplicably, and then entered the guild one step ahead of the Nine Directions.
"Miss Yiyao!" Xu Hongye saw the girl at the front desk of the Alchemist Guild, and immediately became much more honest.
Su Yiyao glanced at Xu Hongye indifferently, noticed Jiufang Ming and Yan Qitong, her eyes lit up, Su Yingcheng had not had a new alchemist for a long time.
"I'm here to upgrade the alchemist grade. Xu Hongye handed the waist card to Su Yiyao, and his movements were light.
Su Yiyao put away the waist card, then walked out and took Xu Hongye into the assessment place.
There were also many young talents and beginner alchemists present, although they had the cultivation of the seventh or eighth order of the Phantom Master, most of them did not know anything about alchemy.
Coming here is nothing more than to watch the excitement.
After a while, Su Yiyao walked back, holding a form in her hand.
Jiufang Ming filled out the form casually and handed it back to Su Yiyao.
"Is this young lady going to participate too?" Su Yiyao glanced up at Yan Qitong, and couldn't help but feel ashamed of herself, although she was called Yingcheng Fairy, but compared with the girl in front of her, she suddenly lost her color, whether it was cultivation or temperament, I am afraid that the only thing that can be compared is the grade of being an alchemist.
"No, no, I don't know how to do alchemy. Yan Qitong waved her hand, she came mainly to accompany Jiufang Ming.
"Report it together, if not, I'll teach you. ”
When Su Yiyao heard this, she handed Yan Qitong another form.
Yan Qitong looked at Jiufang Ming while filling it in, but she really didn't know any alchemy.
Jiufang Ming smiled softly, the Phoenix Xuanchen that Yan Qitong has now can even be comparable to his own Immortal Yuan Chen.
The original ordinary phantom dust was mutated because of the immortal element dust, and the antidote that Yan Qitong took was refined from the blood of the Nine Directions, and some of the mysteries of the Immortal Dust were not even known to the Nine Directions.
"Jiufang Immortal Prince, Miss Yan Qitong, please come with me. Su Yiyao confirmed the names of the two, and there was a feeling of familiarity.
Jiufang Ming led Yan Qitong and walked into the assessment place.
"I don't know much ......about alchemy," Yan Qitong whispered.
Jiufang Ming smiled mysteriously, "I said yes, then you will." ”
Yan Qitong smiled helplessly and looked at the depths of the alchemist with interest.
