Chapter 126: Vanity
After Ruan Tingfang left Xiao Feng, she walked along the path by the stream to Wang Ding's residence.
Wang Ding lives in a small independent courtyard upstream along the river.
This independent courtyard was specially built by Xiao Jingtai, so that he could concentrate on refining medicine, no matter the location or Xiao Jingtai's orders, it made this the most quiet place in the entire Clear Valley.
Today, this small courtyard is very noisy, and there are constant quarrels.
Ruan Tingfang heard Wang Ding's shouting from a distance, the voice sounded very angry, and the sound of the crockpot being smashed came after the shouting, which made Ruan Tingfang curious, with Wang Ding's honest temper, who provoked him and made him so angry. She quickened her pace as she listened attentively.
"My mother said that what she promised others should be done. You have asked me to refine the Ascension Pill within ten days. Ten days, it wasn't an easy thing to do, but I did it anyway. And what about you, I just finished practicing the medicine here, and you just left the medicinal materials I needed, is this in the past?"
"It's not that we don't want to give you medicinal herbs, it's just that the situation outside is very complicated now, and other things are being prepared here, so it's really not suitable to go out to buy medicinal herbs. ”
"Hmph, when the Ascension Pill was not practiced well, you prepared whatever medicinal materials you wanted, and now that I have just practiced the Ascension Pill, you are not suitable to go out, do you think this is like words?"
"What's the use of you arguing with us? We're just here to talk. ”
"Yes, you give us the medicine first, and we will bring your words back, and let the head of the family and the elders arrange everything. ”
"No, if you can't see the herbs I need, don't even think about taking the medicine from me. If I'm in a hurry, I'll destroy the medicine. ”
"Aren't you embarrassing us? We were ordered to get the medicine, and if we can't get it, it's hard to explain. ”
"I don't care about you, you're either going to stay here with me, or you're going back to report my request at once. Anyway, if I can't see the herbs, you don't want to get the medicine, it's as simple as that. ”
After hearing this, Ruan Tingfang immediately became upset for Wang Ding, her grievances started from Xiao Feng, in her mind, if Wang Ding did not have medicinal materials to refine medicine, wouldn't Xiao Feng's cultivation be delayed? Of course, after listening to their quarrel, she also felt that the other party was a bit of a cross-river and tear down the bridge.
After walking a few quick steps, she came to Wang Ding's residence.
As soon as she came to Wang Ding's house, she saw two men dressed as guards standing side by side at the door, their bodies blocking the door, and they couldn't see what was going on inside?
She didn't see it inside, but Wang Ding inside saw her. Wang Ding pushed aside the two guards blocking the door, rushed out with an arrow step, and then rushed to Ruan Tingfang with a happy face as if he had seen a relative, and said, "You came just in time, come and give a review." I just took the medicine..."
Wang Ding explained in one breath how difficult they were and how unreasonable they were, and the two guards looked at each other, and one of the guards sighed and explained: "Alas, are you willing to do this? If you return empty-handed, you will be punished by the elders. ”
"Yes, we don't want to embarrass you, but you're embarrassing us. ”
The two guards looked embarrassed.
Originally, Ruan Tingfang felt that they were deliberately making things difficult, but now that these two guards also had their own difficulties, she comforted Wang Ding a little and said to the two guards: "He will give you the Spirit Pill, but after we go back, please tell the elders our requirements, my young master is now at a critical juncture in cultivation, and the medicinal materials cannot be broken, so please let the two of you bother more." ”
Ruan Tingfang said very politely, and the two guards nodded again and again, repeatedly promising to bring the words.
Under Ruan Tingfang's persuasion, Wang Ding reluctantly took out the Ascension Pill, and when he handed it to the guards, he repeatedly admonished: "You go back now to report, I will wait here for your reply." ”
The two guards took the Dan bottle and reassured as they walked away.
After the guards left, Wang Ding took out three more bottles of green spirit liquid and handed them to Ruan Tingfang, saying, "These are the last three bottles, I'll wait here for their reply." ”
Ruan Tingfang took the green spirit liquid, nodded and said, "It's okay, I'll send these three bottles back first, and I'll come back later, if the elder doesn't give it, let's go to the head of the family and ask, he won't ignore the young master." ”
Wang Ding nodded, and Ruan Tingfang took the green spirit liquid and returned the same way.
On the boulder in the middle of the stream, Xiao Feng's whole body was already soaked with sweat, and the lack of vitality made his originally ruddy cheeks pale and sickly, and his young appearance was also aging rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, he was already gray and wrinkled. The whole person is like a frosted eggplant wilting, and his body is bent and crumbling.
During the time when Ruan Tingfang left to go to Wang Ding to get medicine, he had recovered eighty percent of his vitality and was exhausted again, and he had no supplies, and he had already injured his origin.
"Is this a breakthrough? This is playing with life, if every breakthrough in the future is so difficult, alas, what do you want to think about in the future, I don't know if I can get through it safely this time! Why hasn't Ruan Tingfang come back yet!"
Waiting is already a very painful thing, and if you put all your hopes on waiting, it will become even more painful.
Xiao Feng didn't want to wait so hard, he made dozens of attempts, and the speed at which his vitality was extracted would accelerate after each failed attempt, at this moment he had 10,000 reluctances in his heart, 10,000 thoughts to break this deadlock, but the reality brutally wiped out his thoughts.
He couldn't move, his body was out of control, except for his mental energy.
As the vitality was extracted, his thinking became more and more sluggish, and what he saw and thought became very slow. It's a wonderful state in which even a simple calculation like one plus one can become very slow.
His consciousness just stayed in his mind, stupidly looking at the rosary crystal nucleus in his mind that had become strange and abnormal. The furrows on the surface of the crystal nucleus flickered, and those flickering lights seemed to be very regular, but Xiao Feng couldn't figure it out at all at this moment.
At this moment, a warm liquid ran down his mouth and into his lower abdomen, moistening his already dry life.
"Whew~" Xiao Feng let out a long breath.
It's just that this bottle of green spirit liquid is just a breath, he opened his mouth weakly, Ruan Tingfang saw this, he was distressed, and hurriedly fed him another bottle.
Two bottles of green spirit liquid went down to his stomach, and Xiao Feng felt like he had come back from the dead.
With the recovery of vitality, he also regained some strength, and he was no longer as weak as he was just now.
After taking a few breaths, he glanced up at Ruan Tingfang, and when he saw Ruan Tingfang's anxious look, he thanked him gratefully.
Ruan Tingfang said: "Young Master, there is still a bottle of green spirit liquid here, do you need to take it?"
Xiao Feng felt the situation in his body, and the vitality in his body was still slowly flowing towards the crystal nucleus, although this speed had slowed down a lot, but after a long time, the vitality would still be consumed. He nodded, took the green spirit liquid from Ruan Tingfang's hand, and drank it all.
"Anything else?"
After Xiao Feng took the green spirit liquid, his complexion recovered a lot again.
Ruan Tingfang was just about to inform Xiao Feng of the situation on Wang Ding's side, but when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed them back, and said: "Wang Ding's side still needs some time, I'll go over now, once I get it, I'll come back immediately." ”
After saying that, he didn't stay any longer, turned around and jumped off the boulder, and walked towards Wang Ding's residence.
Xiao Feng felt that Ruan Tingfang was a little strange, but there was some abnormal movement in his body at the moment, and he didn't think much about it, he closed his eyes and concentrated his mind in his mind.
In my mind, a large amount of green mangs merged into the crystal nucleus, and the crystal nucleus swelled as if it had been succumbed. The swollen crystal nuclei flickered on the grooves, as if electric light was swimming away, and those electric flashes actually outlined strange patterns.
"This pattern..."Xiao Feng was stunned, he rummaged through his memory, but he didn't know anything about this thing.
These patterns range from complex to simple. The complex pattern couldn't be seen clearly in his current mind, but the simple pattern could be seen roughly, twisted and twisted, like a talisman spell.
With his knowledge of the incantation, he couldn't tell what kind of incantation it was.
"It's kind of interesting!"
Xiao Feng's face suddenly had an expression of interest, he breathed for a while, and when his spirit and body returned to the best state, regardless of other changes in his body, he plunged into this spell with all his heart.
Ideologically turn into lines and copy them according to simple patterns.
Fail!
Failed again!
After failing again and again, Xiao Feng also had a new understanding of the spell he copied, in addition to the basic composition, this spell should be a 'forget' word, or a 'delusion' word.
"Is it delusion or forgetfulness? Alas, no matter what, try each one!"
Different words have completely different meanings, and they also determine the success or failure of copying. If you can read this character clearly from the beginning, then it will no longer be difficult to depict runes.
Oblivion!
Failed!
Break the delusion!
Failed again!
Vain!
When the rune was depicted in vain, the word 'delusion' in the rune suddenly lit up, and the runes that were put together by the threads flashed with a dazzling red light.
"Delusion, it turned out to be delusion!" Xiao Feng was stunned for a moment, it was not difficult to have an illusory attribute, but it was difficult to materialize the illusory attribute. This is like some people who have no spiritual power but no combat skills, and their strength will always be greatly reduced. Especially in the face of people with equal spiritual power, there is basically no possibility of defeating the opponent.
"Wonderful, really wonderful!" Xiao Feng exclaimed excitedly, he was very familiar with the casting of the spell, and the moment the spell was formed, he knew how to use it.
The right hand swept over his eyes, and the vain incantation swirled at high speed in his eyes.
