Chapter 20: The Rush on the Eve of Alchemy

The half-human-tall rough stone is blue, with some green skin taste, and such a stone is rare, especially if it is so large. The surface of the stone is full of orifices of various sizes, which are probably caused by the formation process of some factors, and the continuous emergence of small bubbles in the stone. When touched by hand, the rough matte feeling is strong. Gao Fan chose a suitable opening and began to cut stones. The edge of the knife was soaked in water, and it cut shallowly into the stone, and the outer layer was gradually cut off and piled up on the ground. Gao Fan still held the knife seriously, the knife was about to reach the center, if the middle was hollow, then the chance of rare items would be very slim.

The knife slowly moved down, and sure enough, it was resisted, but the resistance was not strong. Gao Fan had a faint expectation in his heart, and the force in his hand was much lighter, for fear of hurting the things inside. Inside the peeled stone skin lies a fan embedded in the center of the stone. The fan surface is a little dull, the fan bone is not very damaged, but the fan surface between the fan bones is broken, the broken look is very like it has been burned by fire, it is scorched, there is a small pendant at the end of the fan, the pendant is just a simple red bead, the bead is red in color, it is very good-looking.

"It's ...... A fan? Lin Yun was amazed, there was really everything in the stone, even the fan.

"yes, it's the first time I've opened such a strange object." The fan has not been fully opened, and the remaining third is still buried in the stones, and the follow-up work of cleaning must ensure that the fan itself is not harmed.

"Fans? I'll see. "The little old man has waited long enough for this stone to open, and it is not easy to look forward to it in a hurry.

Although the fan surface is plain and unpretentious, there seems to be a smell of sandalwood in the air when you get closer. The little old man was a little puzzled, and stood on the side with his back hand, waiting for Gao Fan to come out completely.

After waiting for a while, Gao Fan carefully handed the fan to the little old man, and the little old man touched the fan bone, and a coolness came directly to his heart. Open each fan bone layer by layer, the fan surface does have different degrees of damage, but the fan bone is strong, it can be fanned up, and the bursts of sandalwood become thicker and thicker when fanning, and some people fall asleep. When the fan was closed, the pendant was actually a thread made of gold and jade silk threads drawn out of the fan bones to wear the pendant.

The little old man's face was filled with joy, and he couldn't help but say, "This is a superb spiritual weapon!" ”

"You've really picked up a treasure, Gao Fan, you've done a great job! Hahaha...... "The little old man smiled and patted Gao Fan on the shoulder.

"But it's all in tatters, and I don't feel the aura at all." Lin Yun was puzzled.

"Little girl, what do you know, except for that sword, I am somewhat interested in your family, and other things are probably not as good as this fan." The little old man glanced at her.

"I talk about things all day long, and I obviously don't have a serious personality." Lin Yun pursed his lips and was not convinced.

"Although this fan is broken, its fan bone is indeed a material that can only be used to build the best spiritual weapon - sandalwood bone. There are not many such materials in the world, not to mention, you look here and here, and here," the little old man pointed to several places on the fan, "The patterns on it all show that this piece of sandalwood bone is a whole, not a piecemeal piece. Such processes and materials are the best choice, of course, it is called a treasure. The little old man proudly flaunted his knowledge.

"Since the fan is a spiritual weapon, what power does it have?" Lin Yun then asked.

The little old man looked at the fan itself, there were no buttons on it, "I'm afraid it's seriously damaged, otherwise it won't be able to gather a little aura." After a while, he took out a handkerchief and wrapped it around the fan and put it in his sleeve, "Boy, you can open the last piece yourself, I have to go back." ”

"You're going back? The gambling ...... "Gao Fan just wanted to say that success or failure was on this one, and the little old man immediately came over with a fierce look, and his face, which was like a spring breeze just now, became fierce and vicious, which was really amazing.

"It's okay, Gao Fan, I'm still here." Lin Yun was fine anyway, he happened to be interested in cutting stones, so he sat down and planned to take a thorough look.

Gao Fan listened warmly in his heart, "Hmm." I answered, and I felt much better again.

The last stone was laid on the ground very largely, and it was definitely not possible to cut it directly, so I had to choose to cut it slowly on the side.

After opening more than a dozen stones in one day, Gao Fan became much more proficient, and it was also a smooth sailing success when the knife edge went sideways.

Although the flat stone is large, it is the best piece to open, and it is very easy to cut off the layers of stone skin, Gao Fan thought to himself, this may be empty.

The speed of cutting is getting faster and faster, and I haven't seen anything yet, it's all stone. "It seems hopeless." Lin Yun saw that the stones were almost cut to the end, and before he could see the brows, eighty percent were empty.

The stone was cut to the end, but nothing came out. Gao Fan and Lin Yun were a little disappointed, and they packed up and planned to go back to rest.

The stones on the ground suddenly moved, and several stones seemed to be summoned to close together. "Gao Fan, look!" Lin Yun shouted.

Several stones on the ground came together in the shape of a key, and then there was no movement.

Gao Fan encountered such a strange thing for the first time, and picked up the key, which was completely made of stone, and he couldn't see anything special. "What's going on?" Gao Fan and Lin Yun were confused, and planned to put them away for the time being and ask the little old man.

――――――――――――――――

Castle Lord's Mansion. "Lord Jicheng, it's really hard to come all the way to my Qingyun Town." The city lord's surname is Li, who is the owner of the ore vein and the owner of Qingyun Town. "The city lord doesn't have to be so polite, Ji Cheng has also been favored by the Li family, and Qingyun Town is also my hometown, so it's better to call me affectionately." Once when Ji Cheng was still a stunned youth, the head of the Li family recruited Ji Cheng and gave Ji Cheng a certain amount of entanglement to support him in learning alchemy, which was a great kindness to Ji Cheng. Although the head of the family has passed away for many years, this kindness is still there, and it is precisely because of this that the Li family has endured in Qingyun Town for a long time. "Father." Li Zhao, who was beside Ji Cheng, stepped forward to bow his head. "Okay, well, I've grown a lot with Lord Jicheng and your master." City Lord Li Jue looked at Li Zhao with great satisfaction. "Lord Ji Cheng, everyone learned that you came tonight and held a party, according to your habits, it is not extravagant and wasteful, and please be sure to be there." Knowing that Lord Ji Cheng had arrived, people from all sides began to become active, and as the city lord, he had to set up a party for these people to communicate together, so as not to favor one over the other.

Ji Cheng went to Qingyun Town, and all sides received news. The Ouyang family, the Xu family, and the imperial capital came one after another, and all parties fought for the number of disciples of Ji Cheng, and no one let anyone, all of them were arrogant lords.

A frenzy on the eve of alchemy gradually kicked off.
