Tang Xi's subordinates exerted a slight force, and while the stubble man was not paying attention, he slowly pushed the lid outside. The stubble man didn't expect this to happen, and before he could react, his leg was hit by the stove cover, and a terrible scream suddenly reached everyone's ears.

The stubble man took a step back and hugged his thighs and howled, his whole face twisted in pain.

Because the tense atmosphere became even more tense after Tang Xi came in, the people who were still guarding their positions slowly surrounded Tang Xi and the stubble boy group.

The little Dao Tong who was behind the person looked at Tang Xi with a worried expression, his hand clutched the hem of his clothes tightly, and he wanted to step forward but was a little afraid of his master.

Tang Xi saw Xiao Daotong take a step forward, and couldn't help but hook his lips and chuckle, giving Xiao Daotong a slightly calm look.

I don't know why, Xiao Daotong suddenly felt calm in his heart. He stood in place, raising his head to look up at Tang Xi, his lips squirming slightly.

The stubble man had already recovered at this time, he raised his hand on the alchemy furnace, and glared at Tang Xi angrily, "You dare to hurt me!" You know who I am! ”

Tang Xi held his chin and looked the stubble man up and down, his eyes were full of mockery, "I really don't know who you are, but looking at you like this, you look more like a fake Taoist." ”

The stubble man raised his right hand and wanted to slap Tang Xi, but he didn't want to be caught by her as soon as his hand reached Tang Xi's ear. This woman's strength was so great that he couldn't move at all. A hint of horror flashed in the stubble man's eyes, but he soon felt ashamed. If he can't even cure a woman, how can he raise his head in front of other people in the future!

Thinking like this, the stubble man secretly tried to pull his hand out. However, before he could stabilize his body, Tang Xi had already let go of his hand, and the stubble man didn't retract his strength for a while, but suddenly fell backwards, fell straight to the ground, and made a 'bang' sound, you can imagine how heavy the fall was.

The stubble man lay on the ground, unable to move for a long time, and the expression on his face was like crying and laughing, all in all, it didn't look good.

The Taoist priests surrounding him couldn't help it, "This is the emperor's alchemy room, you are disrespectful to the emperor if you mess around here!" ”

Tang Xi smiled indifferently, "Who is disrespectful to the emperor?" Do you know what you're doing right now? Two o'clock in the afternoon is the best time to refine the elixir, but I missed it because of your nonsense. ”

The Taoist priests looked at Tang Xi suspiciously and whispered.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiao Daotong's master stepped forward and said loudly: "We have never heard that refining the pill requires an auspicious day of the zodiac, so we are talking nonsense!" ”

Tang Xi raised his eyebrows, "If that's the case, then you have refined the elixir?" ”

Xiao Daotong's master turned red when he heard this, and he didn't say anything for a while. If he had refined the elixir of life, how could the emperor still find so many alchemists?

As if he didn't see his embarrassment, Tang Xi continued: "I don't think you can refine the elixir of life, and refining this medicine requires the right time, place, and people. And you don't know at all, could it be that you came to the palace to deceive the emperor? ”

"You, you" Xiao Daotong's master angrily stretched out his index finger and pointed at Tang Xi, "Nonsense! ”

"You know if it's nonsense." Tang Xi squatted down and picked up the lid of the furnace and put it on the alchemy furnace, clapped his hands and prepared to leave.

But the people around her did not move away at all, but gathered closer and closer. Tang Xi looked at them indifferently, without the slightest fear on his face.

Just as everyone was about to start, the eunuch's unique sharp voice came from the door, and everyone quickly turned around.

"Tang Xi Tang Gao is here?" Gonggong Li raised his head and looked around, but because Tang Xi was blocked by everyone's figures, he didn't see her for a while. I couldn't help but wonder a little in my heart, I heard that I was here.

Tang Xi pushed everyone away and walked in front of Gonggong Li, Gonggong Li's arrogant expression immediately turned into a flattering smile, he bent down slightly, and said with some flattery: "Tang Gaoren, the emperor wants to see you, I wonder if you are free now?" ”

The Taoist priests suddenly gasped, although Gonggong Li was polite to them on weekdays, but it was definitely not like now, it can be seen that in the emperor's heart, Tang Xi's status is different. If Tang Xi sued in front of the emperor, wouldn't they

"Well, let's go." Tang Xi took two steps forward, and suddenly as if he remembered something, he turned around and beckoned to Xiao Daotong. Originally, she was going to let Xiao Daotong stay with his master for a while, after all, it might hurt Xiao Daotong if she startled the snake too early, but now, it seems that there is no need for that.

She can protect Xiao Daotong, how can she let Xiao Daotong be bullied by his master's side again.

Xiao Daotong pointed at himself and looked at Tang Xi with some surprise.

At this time, Xiao Daotong's master also reacted, "It turned out to be you!" Xiao Daotong's master twisted Xiao Daotong's collar and wanted to lift Xiao Daotong, but a gust of wind blew, and Xiao Daotong's master found that his hand was empty.

Looking at it again, Xiao Daotong actually ran into Tang Xi's arms. "I discipline my apprentice, what's your business!"

Tang Xi stretched out his index finger and shook it, "No, now Xiaodao Tong is my apprentice." ”

"Hmph, Ah Ming, come here!" Xiao Daotong's master looked at Xiao Daotong with a threatening look in his eyes.

Xiao Daotong's body trembled slightly, and he looked at Tang Xi in disbelief, his hand tightly gripping Tang Xi's clothes, obviously not wanting Tang Xi to let go of him.

"Your name is Ah Ming?" Tang Xi reached out and gently pinched Ah Ming's cheek, and said with a chuckle: "Sue him, you have to follow me." ”

"I" Ah Ming bit his lip, and only after half a sound did he muster up the courage to say, "I want to follow my sister." ”

"Did you hear that? In the future, Ah Ming will be my apprentice. Tang Xi said, turned around and left.

Gonggong Li glared at the people in the alchemy room, "You people dare to clash with Tang Gaoren, you really have eaten the bear's heart and leopard's gall!" After that, Gonggong Li saw that Tang Xi had walked away from him, so he hurriedly followed.

In the imperial study, the emperor, who was about fifty years old, had turned white on his temples at the moment, and his old state was fully revealed, and he sat on the dragon chair, his fingers trembling and reading the folds.

When one book was finished, the eunuch standing to his left would pick up another book and read it to him.

Can't see clearly? Tang Xi pulled Ah Ming and grabbed Ah Ming when he wanted to kneel, "The people's daughter participates in the emperor." ”

When the old emperor heard the voice, he put down the pen in his hand and rubbed his eyes, the figure he saw in front of him was a little blurry, and he couldn't help frowning, "I heard that you have a way to refine the elixir?" ”

Tang Xi raised his eyebrows in some surprise, it seemed that this old emperor was really anxious, and he went straight to the point. "Naturally, but the good time of the month has passed, and we need to wait another month."

"Oh? Do you need to pick a time to refine the elixir? You're not cheating on me, are you? The old emperor slapped the table hard, and his tone was a little angry.

Ah Ming grabbed the hem of Tang Xi's clothes and looked up at Tang Xi a little nervously. This was actually the first time he had seen the emperor, and it was impossible for the master to bring him when he came to see the emperor in the past.

He originally thought that the emperor should be kind, but he didn't want to be no different from his master. What if my sister makes the emperor angry? The emperor is the biggest man in the world

Tang Xi shook Ah Ming's hand and signaled him not to be nervous. "How dare the people's daughter deceive the emperor, the emperor now has more than fifty alchemists, but no one has yet been able to refine the elixir of life, doesn't this explain the problem?"

The old emperor stroked his beard, and the expression on his face was a little solemn, "What do you mean?" ”

"I am the only one in this world who has the recipe to refine the elixir of life." Tang Xi was neither humble nor arrogant, and said confidently and awe-inspiringly.

The old emperor was skeptical, but when he looked at Gonggong Li beside him, he couldn't help but flash a trace of excitement in his heart. He grabbed the armrest of the dragon chair and tried to calm his voice down, "How do you prove that what you say is true?" ”

Tang Xi took out a brocade box and handed it to the eunuch beside him, "If the emperor is a believer, he can take this bead, and within a moment, the effect will be immediately apparent." ”

The eunuch opened the brocade box and placed it on the table, and in an instant, the entire imperial study was illuminated. The old emperor raised his hand to cover his eyes, a little hesitant.

Gonggong Li had taken it once before, so he naturally knew that Tang Xi had real skills, and when he saw Tang Xi take out another pearl, his face couldn't help but flash a trace of joy, but remembering his reaction after taking it last time, his face turned pale again.

What if the emperor takes it and does the same as he did last time?

As if sensing Gonggong Li's concern, Tang Xi opened his mouth and said, "This bead is being re-refined by me, and there will be no adverse reactions after taking it." ”

When the old emperor heard this, he turned his gaze to Gonggong Li, and when he saw Gonggong Li nodded, he couldn't help but be a little excited. "Father-in-law Li, go pour a cup of hot tea."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When Gonggong Li waited for the old emperor to take the pearl, everyone stared at the old emperor intently, only Tang Xi half-closed his eyes and looked bored.

"Quick, bring the mirror!" The old emperor seemed to feel the changes in his body, and his face was full of joy.

When Gonggong Li heard this, he realized that he had made a mistake, and he had forgotten such an important matter, and hurriedly commanded the people below to bring the mirror.

At this time, the white hair on the old emperor's sideburns had disappeared, and the wrinkles on his face were much less.

When the mirror was brought to the old emperor, the old emperor's hands began to tremble. He stared at himself in the mirror, and suddenly found that his eyes could see what was in front of him clearly, not as if everything in front of him was a blurry shadow like before, but he could really see clearly.

He raised his hand to pick up the piece on the table, opened it and looked at it, and let out a shrill laugh in the middle of it.

When he raised his head to look at Tang Xi again, the whole person was stunned, there was such a beauty in the world! If he can really live forever, he will always be by his side! The old emperor's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he tried to keep his tone as steady as possible. "Tang Gaoren is really extraordinary, and he can really restore my former heroism."

When Tang Xi raised his eyes, he happened to see the hidden desire in the depths of the old emperor's eyes. Wang, I suddenly felt a wave of nausea in my heart.
