Xiaobao only has two years left, and if after two years, Xiaobao still fails to pass the children's exam, he will be expelled from the family.

However, judging from Xiaobao's current strength of less than three paragraphs of writing, it may be quite difficult to improve the strength of seven paragraphs of writing in two years and successfully pass the children's exam.

This means that Xiaobao has to be twice as fast as ordinary people's cultivation speed to achieve it, and to achieve a cultivation speed twice as fast as others, I'm afraid it will definitely not be possible without some medicine.

"Teacher, help me refine some pills, help me speed up my cultivation, so that I can successfully advance to Tongsheng within two years, and we will write off the matter of you stealing my writing power before, how about it?" Xiaobao looked at the white-bearded old man and asked.

Obviously, where is this begging for someone? It was clearly threatening people, and the white-bearded old man rolled his eyes: "You kid, can you not talk about me stealing your writing power?" Is it to grab the pigtail and pull it to the end? ”

Xiaobao smiled, "Then the teacher agreed?" ”

"Needless to say? Since I accepted you as an apprentice, if I don't give you some benefits, is it still a teacher? The white-bearded old man stroked his beard and said.

Xiaobao was overjoyed when he heard this, "Then the teacher will help me refine the pill now, do you need pots and pans?" ”

"What? Do you want to make a full banquet for the Manchurians? The white-bearded old man asked.

"What Manchu full seat? Didn't you say that you want to refine the elixir? Don't you need pots and pans? Xiaobao asked strangely.

"Pots and pans are for cooking, and you don't need that for refining pills." The white-bearded old man shook his hand and said. "Pots and pans, hey......"

Xiaobao scratched his head in embarrassment, "Then what does the teacher need?" ”

"Refining the elixir requires a medicine refining furnace. Of course, the alchemy furnace is also graded, given that your current strength is only less than the power of three paragraphs of writing, refining a low-grade heart nourishing pill is enough, then buy a low-grade alchemy furnace, there should be one sold in the grocery store. The white-bearded old man said.

"Okay, I'll buy it." Xiaobao is about to leave after speaking. As soon as he turned around, he was pulled back by the white-bearded old man.

"Hey, hey, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Didn't you buy a stove?"

"There's no need to be in such a hurry. It is in vain to buy a refining furnace without materials, in addition to refining the elixir, you must also prepare sufficient materials and appropriate catalysts and extractors, otherwise. Throw the ingredients into the furnace. Either it can't be refined, or it turns into a pile of ashes, isn't it blind? The white-bearded old man said.

"Oh, so what do you have to prepare?" Xiaobao asked.

"To refine a low-grade Heart Nourishing Pill, you need two flower bamboo grasses, ten snow tongs, one dragon fruit, one ginseng, and a first-order magic crystal nucleus with a wind attribute is almost enough." The white-bearded old man opened five materials in one go, and after Xiaobao heard it, he couldn't help but be speechless.

Flower bamboo grass and snow tongs are good to say, they are sold in ordinary pharmacies. The price is not very expensive, but the dragon fruit is too outrageous. Dragon fruit grows in the southern tropics, and Uno City belongs to the northern city, there is no dragon fruit here, although there are also high-end bazaars that sell dragon fruit, but the price is outrageously high, the price of a dragon fruit is a hundred gold coins, in addition, the price of ginseng is also extremely expensive, because there is no ginseng around Uno City, and the place where ginseng is produced is far away from Uno City, so the price of ginseng is also high, and a ginseng can only be bought with a few hundred gold coins.

And this is not what makes Xiao Bao the most unacceptable, what makes Xiao Bao the most unacceptable is that refining the low-level Heart Nourishing Pill actually requires a wind attribute magic crystal nucleus, although the first-order magic crystal nucleus is the lowest-level magic crystal nucleus, however, its price is at least about a thousand gold coins, which is tantamount to an astronomical amount for Xiao Bao, where did he go to get so much money?

"Teacher, isn't that too much of an exaggeration? These materials add up to about 2,000 gold coins, and I don't have that much money. Xiaobao looked at the white-bearded old man and complained.

Originally, I wanted to ask the old man for help, but who would have thought that the old man copied his hands and twisted his head, without the slightest intention of taking care of Xiaobao, "It's good that I promised to teach you alchemy, if you don't have money, it's your own business, you can solve it yourself." ”

Xiaobao didn't expect the teacher to be so indifferent, so he secretly gave the old man a middle finger and figured it out by himself.

Where are the 2,000 gold coins going to come from?

Xiaobao rummaged through his trouser pockets, and it was only the savings of a thousand gold coins, which was all Xiaobao's belongings in the past few years, and it was only half of it, as for the other thousand gold coins, how to get it?

Just when Xiaobao was racking his brains to find a way, suddenly there was a light footstep sound outside, although the sound was very weak, but, under the induction of super high soul perception ability, Xiaobao still discovered the other party's movement early.

At this time, the old man also became alert all of a sudden, "Hey, apprentice, I'll go back to the ring first, by the way, don't tell anyone about me!" ”

After saying that, the old man got into the ring and disappeared without a trace.

Xiaobao looked down at the gray bare ring on the ring finger of his left hand, and blinked strangely, "I'll go, just go, run really fast." ”

Soon after, the light footsteps stopped abruptly in front of the door, and Xiaobao looked over, and it was none other than Wang Yuyan who came to visit him.

"Brother Xiaobao, are you still cultivating at such a late hour?" Wang Yuyan took a closer look, her smart eyes flashed with brilliance, and she said in surprise: "Brother Xiaobao's progress is not small, is this painting written by Brother Xiaobao himself?" ”

Xiaobao smiled awkwardly, "It's okay, I wrote it randomly." ”

Wang Yuyan looked at the handwriting carefully, nodded from time to time, and it took about a quarter of an hour to read all the words, many of which are remarkable, of course, there are some shortcomings, Wang Yuyan pointed out without hesitation.

"Brother Xiaobao, there is a lot of progress, work hard, I believe you will succeed." Wang Yuyan said with a smile.

"Yes." Xiaobao smiled and nodded, for this beautiful little cousin, Xiaobao was really moved, knowing that he was a waste of firewood, others were afraid that he would not be able to hide, only this little cousin had always been so good to himself.

Thinking of Wang Yuyan's kindness to herself, Xiaobao suddenly had an idea, and looked at Wang Yuyan, "Little sister, can I borrow some money from you?" ”

Wang Yuyan was slightly stunned and asked, "How much does Brother Xiaobao want?" ”

"Uh... Is there a thousand gold coins? Xiaobao asked tentatively.

Wang Yuyan smiled and nodded, "Well, yes, I don't know what Brother Xiaobao wants so much money for?" ”

Xiaobao was about to speak, when he suddenly remembered the teacher's advice again, so he had to shake his head awkwardly.

Wang Yuyan is an empathetic girl, and when she saw that Xiaobao was embarrassed, she stopped asking, took out a purple gold card from her skirt pocket, and shook it in front of Xiaobao.

"The money is here, and it will be given to you tomorrow." Wang Yuyan said with a smile.

"Well, by the way, do you have time tomorrow?" Xiaobao asked.

"Yes, is there anything else that Brother Xiaobao has to do?"

"Then let's go to Unno City tomorrow, shall we? I haven't been out for a long time, and I want to go for a walk. Xiaobao asked tentatively, this is the first time Xiaobao has asked Wang Yuyan, Wang Yuyan's pretty face was slightly flushed with a lovely flush, and her beautiful eyes instantly became a little flustered.

Is Brother Xiaobao dating me?

Xiaobao looked at Wang Yuyan and hesitated, thinking that she was not very willing, so she smiled shyly: "I'm just asking casually, if it doesn't work, forget it." ”

"No, no, no, Brother Xiaobao, I'm willing, I'm willing." Wang Yuyan replied in a hurry, which surprised Xiaobao slightly, and Wang Yuyan's beautiful pretty face turned even more crimson after she found out that she was so anxious to justify.

The next morning, the sky was clear and cloudless, making it a good day to go out.

Xiaobao has been staying in the Wang family's compound since he crossed over, and in addition to cultivation every day, he rarely goes outside for a walk, and he has long been a little stuffy, if he doesn't go out to relax, I'm afraid he will have hairs on his body.

It's rare to have a chance to go out, and Xiaobao naturally wants to go outside to see more.

"Brother Xiaobao, are you up?" Wang Yuyan's sweet and pleasant voice came from the small courtyard, and Xiaobao got up from the bed with a grunt and ran out with a smile.

"Sister Yu Yan, it's so early."

"Brother Xiaobao rarely makes an appointment with someone once, how can he come late?" Wang Yuyan said with a smile.

Xiaobao was overjoyed, but he didn't expect his words to be really good, and left the Wang family compound with Wang Yuyan.

Uno City is located in the northern part of the Alpha Empire, bordering the Far Eastern Steppe to the north, the Warcraft Forest to the east, the Sunset Mountains to the west, and the capital of the Empire to the south.

It is a military town with convenient transportation and extending in all directions.

Although Uno City cannot be compared with the top ten cities of the empire, it can be regarded as a metropolis in the north of the empire, with a resident population of more than one million, and the city is economically prosperous and rich, and is known as the pearl of the north.

Xiaobao walks on the street, feeling quite novel, on both sides of the huge stone-paved city road, there are all kinds of Western-style buildings, there are majestic and tall churches, towering bell towers, or there are all kinds of high-end atmosphere Gothic buildings, and the street is full of traffic, crowded, lively and extraordinary.

In addition, in the commercial area lined with shops, all kinds of dazzling small commodities have deeply attracted Wang Yuyan, the little girl loves those glittering things the most, a pair of beautiful eyes, staring at those gorgeous trinkets and can't put it down, but the little girl also knows that Xiaobao doesn't have much money, just a good time, and never asks for anything.

Xiaobao could see the little girl's love for those small things, but she had no money, otherwise, she would have bought one or two pieces a long time ago and coaxed the little girl to be happy.

"Little sister, when my brother has money, I will definitely buy the best jewelry for you, now I owe you first, and my brother will do what he says." Xiaobao looked at Wang Yuyan and said.

"Well, thank you Brother Xiaobao, Yu Yan is waiting for that day." Wang Yuyan said with a smile, her beautiful eyes bent into a lovely crescent shape. (To be continued......)
