Chapter 246: It's Officially Started
After countless trials, Yan Ran carefully examined the powder they had practiced, divided it into different portions, and served it in a small bowl.
The book says that when refining the herb, the powder of other herbs should be added little by little to achieve full fusion and produce the correct medicinal effect at different temperatures.
And Qiao Xiao's task is to write different names and weights, and each small label is attached to the small bowl, this is a laboratory.
Looking at the small bowl that was already full of labels and half of the cabinet, Qiao Xiao stretched out with satisfaction.
"Yanran, have we already done half of the work?"
Yan Ran moved her shoulders, she was very tired after several days of continuous transfer, after all, now she is not like Qiao Xiao, there is magic to support, her eyes are red, and the bottom of her eyes is black and blue, Qiao Xiao has helped her go a few times, but the exhaustion of her body can't deceive people.
"Yanran, you can't do this, you need to take a break. I don't know how long I have to practice for a while, and I can't stop halfway, in case your energy can't keep up, it won't be a waste of all your efforts. ”
Yanran knew that what Qiao Xiao said was right, so she nodded: "Then I'll go sleep for a while." ”
Qiao Xiao immediately followed with a thief: "Yanran, I'll sleep with you for a while." ”
Yan Ran glanced at him: "Are you letting me have a good rest?" ”
Qiao Xiao shrunk her neck: "I mean I'll help you cover a quilt." ”
After Yanran left, Qiao Xiao sat on a chair and gradually squinted, not to mention Yanran these days, he was also tired enough, because his energy had to be completely concentrated, and the heat could not deviate at all.
No wonder the alchemist is a very rare existence, Qiao Xiao followed Yan Ran and also tried it, this is simply not a human thing. He remembered that their family's pills had wasted a lot of money on him before, and now that he thought about it, it was really a sin, but it couldn't be called a waste, it was all used on Yan Ran and himself. Who made them both hurt?
was so confused, thinking about it, Qiao Xiao finally fell asleep.
What these two people didn't expect was that the days they had been away for a long time. They thought it had only been a week, but they didn't expect that there was a time difference between the space and the outside, and there had been no news of these two people outside for nearly a month.
The first one to find out was Ye Xuanfei, she found that Qiao Xiao could not be contacted on the third day of Qiao Xiao's departure, the mobile phone was never in the service area, and the messages were also lost, and there was no news, and then she soon found that Yanran was also gone.
Ye Xuanfei, a smart brain, immediately discovered the abnormality sensitively, as long as it was about Qiao Xiao, her nerves would immediately erect 10,000 times, and she guessed the truth at once, Qiao Xiao and Yan Ran didn't know what to do.
She sneaked into Yanran's house and found that she was not there at all, she went to Qiao Xiao's company, but the people in the company told him that Qiao Xiao had gone far away.
She felt like a Sherlock Holmes looking for missing people, she had already defined herself as a wife, and her future husband and mistress ran away, which simply made her unbearable.
She used all the connections of the Eastern Family, and finally found out that Qiao Xiao and Yanran had taken a plane to Huanghai City many days ago and checked into a suite in a hotel.
Ye Xuanfei gritted her silver teeth, why did these two live in the same room? Qiao Xiao seemed to have lied to her before, and what were the two of them doing in Huanghai City? Ye Xuanfei recalled that when she had dinner with Qiao Xiao before, Qiao Xiao kept asking him about the situation in the Eastern Family and the layout of the formation in the ancestral house. Now think about it, how can it all be so coincidental? Abnormality is a demon!
She couldn't guess what the two were going to do, but she bought a ticket back to the Yellow Sea. She wants to go back and wait for the rabbit, Qiao Xiao dares to betray her, she will definitely make Yanran look good.
Xiao Liu looked at the report in the news in shock, which was different from what Yan Ran had expected. It turned out that the two key figures, Vice President Ma and Vice Minister Chen, actually died at the same time, and Yanran's plan was to combine the evidence and submit it to a higher level through these two people, so that the facts of the crime of the Jiutian system were displayed in front of the higher leaders like a complete picture.
And now that these two key figures are actually dead, Xiao Liu is sensitively aware that it must be the Eastern Family's doing.
He didn't know where the problem was, why these two people were exposed, he wanted to discuss with Yan Ran, but Yan Ran couldn't get in touch. Many days ago, Yanran wrote him an email, telling him that he might go out for a while, and how to write the follow-up arrangements is very clear.
But he didn't have it in his plan, what would happen when these two people died?
Xiao Liu didn't dare to act rashly, he didn't know if Yan Ran had been exposed, he was so anxious that he simply cut off all contact, I have to say that the smart Xiao Liu saved himself like this.
Ye Lao of the Eastern Family is not a vegetarian, with the help of Shangfeng, they began to reverse check down layer by layer, and after the investigation, they found that the clues were so scattered, and they were all submitted by some local unrelated whistleblowers.
Could it be that this is really the case? A pile, a piece of seemingly scattered branches and leaves, and finally converge into a big tree?
The people of the Eastern Family fell into a confusing speculation, and after Xiao Liu explained to everyone, everyone was dormant, all contact was temporarily interrupted, and he went out on vacation directly.
After Yan Ran and Qiao Xiao woke up, the two began to refine the Immortal Grass.
There is only one Zhuxian grass, and there must be no mistakes. Yan Ran drove all the small animals out of the entire pharmacy, and explained to them that they were going to practice a very important elixir now, and they would play with them again after a while.
The little animals lingered in the doorway reluctantly, until the door of the alchemy room was closed, and they still circled around the house.
Yan Ran took a deep breath: "Qiao Xiao, are you ready?" ”
"Alright, Yanran, let's get started."
"Success, not failure."
Yan Ran directly lit the big furnace, and the confined space was suddenly steaming, and the flames were colorful, from the bottom to the top, there were nine different changing colors, surrounding the entire furnace ding.
"This should be the furnace brought down by the Nine Heavens Fairy from the Divine Realm, and it looks like an artifact." Kong Ming and Kong Xiaoming exclaimed in the bracelet.
It is more than 10,000 times better than the small furnace Ding that Ye Xuanfei brought.
Ye Xuanfei's small furnace can only practice ordinary herbs, and the real peerless medicine can only be practiced by this kind of big furnace.
"Qiao Xiao, you pay attention to controlling the heat, and according to the temperature in the book, each layer of flame must be kept at a constant temperature."
Yan Ran was engrossed in the book, adding powder and herbs to it little by little.
The magic of this furnace is that the herbs will start to be refined from the top layer, and when the required herbs are practiced, it will automatically fall into the next layer, and then enter the next layer after the next layer is successfully refined, so that the layers repeat, and finally condense the essence of the elixir.
Qiao Xiao used its magic to control the temperature of each layer, gradually the palms of his hands were sweating, and the whole brain was also sweating, the heat in the room made him really uncomfortable, he took advantage of the gap between changing hands, took off his clothes, and only wore a pair of underwear, Yanran looked at him stunned, then glanced at it again, and then turned his head and continued to look at the herbs in his hand.
"Yanran, are you hot? Do you want to take your clothes off? ”
"Don't!" But after a while, Yan Ran, like Qiao Xiao, was all sweaty with all the clothes on her body and tied to her body sticky.
Yanran stopped and took off her trousers, which were also a pair of boxer shorts, so that they would not go away. But the two slender and straight long legs, with distinct bones, slender calves, and delicate ankles, in this confined space, it was so stimulating and teasing Qiao Xiao's nerves.
Yan Ran didn't pay attention at first, but later found that Qiao Xiao's eyes kept glancing at her legs.
Yanran coughed, and her face flushed: "Pay attention to the heat." ”
Qiao Xiao simply closed his eyes, and this Yanran would challenge his self-control.
The herbs in the furnace ding fell layer by layer, and were gathered in the deepest part of the furnace on the ninth floor, and the antidote to the elixir was refined from a total of 81 kinds of herbs, and each herb looked like there were a lot of them, but in the end, only a few grams or a few tenths of a gram of essence could be refined.
All the previous refining is just a familiar practice, and when it comes to the final formal alchemy, it can only be guaranteed that there will be no mistakes, but the workload is still placed here.
This greatly challenges the willpower of alchemists, it seems that it is easy to do anything in this world, but it is really difficult to really do it well, this is the same as cultivation, if you don't take off a few layers of skin, you won't be successful.
Qiao Xiaolian felt that the skin on his body was superfluous, hot, like the kind of sunlight in the desert that was not blocked by the atmosphere, which stimulated him hotly, and he and Yanran kept drinking water, but just like that, they couldn't keep up with the speed of water volatilization.
"Yanran, can you help me pour water off my head, I'm too hot."
Qiao Xiao had to lean on the stove all the time, unlike Yanran who put the herbs in, she could avoid some, Yanran brought a basin of cold water over and poured it directly on her head, Qiao Xiao had been dry for a long time, he shook his head from side to side like a puppy, splashing water, and then poured a large cup of cold water fiercely.
Yan Ran just looked at him like this, the water droplets slipped from the top of his head, down his cheeks, collarbones, and chest muscles all the way down, Qiao Xiao was still like a puppy, sticking out his tongue, panting heavily, Yan Ran suddenly blushed, and secretly said in his heart: "Demon!" "Turn around quickly.
Qiao Xiao suddenly reflected, and he asked Kong Ming and Kong Xiaoming in his mind: "Did Yanran blush just now?" ”
"Seems to be yes, she's hungry for you."
Qiao Xiao smiled incomprehensibly when he heard this, his eyes turned around with Yan Ran, and after a while, he said to Yan Ran with a bitter face: "Yan Ran, I seemed to have drunk too much water just now and wanted to pee." ”
