Day after day.

Finally, after unremitting efforts, Xi Xue succeeded in stirring up the stagnant water on the fourth day, and rolled up a whirlpool with himself as the center.

"Hah! Ok, good, good! is worthy of being a person who is favored by the master. Even the record left by the third child has been broken by you. The little junior brother is worthy of being a genius in the sky. It seems that the responsibility of saving the world is about to fall on your shoulders. Shen Hongtu said.

Xi Xue has not even closed his eyes for one hundred and eight hours in the past four days. Although he had succeeded in stirring up a whirlpool in the waterhole, it was difficult to go any further than twenty paces on the chain of the cliff. It's a shame that his physique and spirit are different from ordinary people, otherwise he would have collapsed if he didn't close his eyes for four days.

As for the "genius of the sky" mentioned by Shen Hongtu, Xi Xue is just listening. He knew very well that he was able to stir up the waterhole in such a short period of time, thanks to the "Golden Divine Vein".

Xi Zeqiang was in high spirits and asked, "Senior sister, what should I do next?" Shen Hongtu said: "Don't worry. You need to know the truth that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it. The way of practicing martial arts should not be impatient, otherwise it is easy to suffer. You've had enough of tossing in the chains. Get two days of rest. In addition, you must not forget that Master has told you not to be obsessed with martial arts, but also to have hobbies other than martial arts. ”

Xi is indeed in a hurry. He has been delayed for quite a long time in Yangzhou City. The ten-day period agreed with Aned is only two days. And he still hasn't heard anything from Deng Sinuo. The longer it drags on, the more detrimental it will be to Deng Sinuo.

What's more, Xi Xue hopes to learn something real from the Zangfeng Martial Arts Hall before leaving the Han Empire!

Xi Xue said: "Senior sister, don't sell Guanzi, teach me now." I'm in good spirits right now, and I'm in a great state to learn. Shen Hongtu said solemnly: "No! The more you are like this, the less you can continue to teach you. Let's talk about it when you're calm. Seeing that Shen Hongtu's attitude was so resolute, Xi Xue had to sigh secretly, "Okay then." By the way, senior sister, has the master ever returned? ”

Shen Hongtu said: "What, are you afraid that the master will verify your results?" You can rest assured, the master has not returned yet. So let's rest and think about what hobbies you should find. I had something on hand, so I'll go first. Xi Xue hurriedly said: "Senior sister, is there a place to pick herbs in this inner courtyard?" Shen Hongtu raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you want to play ancient medicine?" It's a college question, and it's dangerous! ”

Xi Xue said: "I just think that ancient medicine is very magical. The body of the [refining pile] was damaged before, but it was cured by soaking in the medicine barrel. So I wanted to dig a little deeper. Shen Hongtu casually pointed in a direction, "You are not the only one who thinks that ancient medicine is magical." We [Zangfeng Martial Arts Hall] have a small group of people who are keen to study ancient medicine. Twenty miles away, there is a valley called [Yakushi Valley], if you really have a heart, you can go and see it. But don't blame me for not reminding you. [Yakushi Valley] nominally belongs to me [Zangfeng Martial Arts Hall], but in fact it is self-contained, and the temper of the people inside is not very good, if they don't welcome you, you must not force your way in. ”

Xi Xue said: "Thank you senior sister for informing me, I know." By the way, Senior Sister, there is one more thing......"

Shen Hongtu said: "Say, what else is polite to senior sister?" ”

Xi Ze said: "How is the situation outside now?" Shen Hongtu said with a bored face: "What else can I do, it's a mess." Xi Xue heard that Shen Hongtu probably didn't care about the situation outside, so he said, "Then can you bring a message to someone for me?" Shen Hongtu dragged an old "oh", "It's a girl, right?" ”

Xi Xue said: "Hehe, the senior sister is really like a god, and the younger brother admires it." Shen Hongtu said: "Say it, bring it to whom, what words." Xi Xue said: "She is also an apprentice of [Zangfeng Martial Arts Hall], and she was my roommate before, called Zhang Xiahua. Just tell her: I'm fine, don't worry. ”

"Okay! Leave it to me, sister. ”

After Shen Hongtu left, Xi Xue did not rush to the "Medicine Master Valley", but found a place to sleep well, and slept back all the sleep he had lacked in the past four days. Although Xi Xue can still survive, he is always unsteady in his heart if he doesn't sleep. After waking up from sleep, Xi Ze was refreshed, and even his restless and excited heart calmed down. Sleep and rest are things that have been written into human genes since the birth of human beings, and they are not necessary, but necessary.

After that, Xi Xue was not busy returning to the edge of the cliff to continue tossing with the chain, but went in the direction of the "Medicine Master Valley" that Shen Hongtu pointed to. The twenty-mile road was nothing to Xi Xue, and soon he came to a valley outside the mouth of the valley, and there was a stone tablet erected not far away, with the words "Medicine Master Valley" in three big characters.

"Stop!" As soon as Xi Zecai approached, a person rushed out of the valley and looked Xi Ze up and down, "What person?" Don't you know that it's forbidden to be close here? Do you understand the rules? Xi Xue said: "Below is the disciple of the master of the Martial Arts Pavilion, and I heard that there is a Medicine Master Valley in the inner courtyard. The younger brother is very interested in ancient medicine, so he came to visit and study. ”

"Go, go!" As soon as the man heard this, he drove people away impatiently, "Where to go back and forth." This is not the place where you can come. Xi Xue was speechless, and at the same time he was also surprised, he didn't even have the title of "Pavilion Master Disciple", what kind of place is this "Medicine Master Valley"? Is this still the land of the "Zangfeng Martial Arts Hall"? In Xi Xue's stunned kung fu, the man was impatient to drive people away, "What are you still doing in a daze?" Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up. ”

Although he was very dissatisfied with his attitude, Xi Xue still sighed in disappointment, turned around and left, yes, let's go back and fight with the cliff chains.

The person guarding the valley chose to leave, "snorted", and said disdainfully: "It's really embarrassing to be poor and sour, and I want to come to ask for medicine." "Xi chose to leave on the front foot, and a girl came to the mouth of the medicine man valley on the back foot. The person who drove Xi Xue away before walked out again, but with a smile on his face, he said, "Sister Xiahua, are you here?" ”

If Xi chooses to take a step late, he will definitely see Zhang Xiahua.

Zhang Xiahua smiled gently, bowed and said, "Senior Brother Lin." ”

That Senior Brother Lin was about to take Zhang Xiahua's hand and said, "Come and follow me into the valley." Zhang Xiahua turned her hand away and dodged. The embarrassment and anger on Senior Brother Lin's face flashed, and he said, "Master, they have been waiting for a long time. Today is the most critical experiment in refining the [Qi Gathering Pill], if it succeeds, our [Medicine Master Valley] will become famous just around the corner. At that time, all the warriors in the world will demand us. And those who used to laugh at us must also teach them to repent of their intestines. ”

Zhang Xiahua didn't like Senior Brother Lin's villainous appearance at all, but she didn't want him to say anything, so she only said, "Senior Brother Lin, let's go." The two walked into the valley together. All the way inward, the valley is full of exotic flowers and plants, some of which grow naturally on the side of the hillside road, and some of which are artificially planted in the fields, and these are the various herbs that are bred in the "Yakushi Valley". In the valley, even the air is filled with the strong smell of medicine.

Zhang Xiahua didn't want to say anything more to that Senior Brother Lin, but that Senior Brother Lin was looking for all kinds of words, which would just say: "Sister Xiahua, I don't know which one is mouthy, and I leaked the fact that I [Medicine Master Valley] was refining [Qi Gathering Pill], and there are always some people who don't know what to do here with various excuses these days, which is simply annoying." Just before you, there was a person who claimed to be a disciple of the hall master and wanted to visit and study in the [Medicine Master Valley], and it was strange to believe him. ”

Zhang Xiahua frowned, and said, "Sect master disciple? Senior Brother Lin said, "Yes." This kid doesn't even make up a better identity for deceiving people. [Zangfeng Martial Arts Pavilion] who doesn't know that the Huo Pavilion Master only accepted three disciples. I've seen all three of them, how can they fool me? If it weren't for his interest and obedient departure, and he was a disciple of the inner court, I would have to teach him a good lesson. ”

Zhang Xiahua said: "Senior Brother Lin, as far as I know, Pavilion Master Huo has recently accepted another disciple from his own line......"

"What...... What the!? Senior Brother Lin's eyes widened, "This is ...... Seriously? Zhang Xiahua said: "How dare I joke about this? But...... It can't be him. As she spoke, Zhang Xiahua sighed gloomily. Natural and man-made disasters are unpredictable! Who would have thought that when Zhang Xiahua's mother and daughter were trying their best to catch people, they got the caution that Xi Tianxue was robbed by the chaotic party and his life and death were unknown. Zhang Xiahua was naturally anxious, but Mrs. Zhang only said "This is his life".

Listening to Zhang Xiahua's words, Senior Brother Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

Not far away, a large group of people were already busy.

Everything is for the sake of refining the "Qi Gathering Pill".

Today is the difference between success and failure!

……

On the other side, Huo Weiyi's third disciple, Chen Zhen, known as a genius, approached Huo Weiyi's indisputable grassland.

Suddenly, a voice rang out: "Yo! Third junior brother, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”

Chen Zhen stopped, and saw Shen Hongtu leaning on the bamboo not far away, the carving knife in her hand flying, and a picture appeared on the surface of the bamboo tube in her hand.

Chen Zhen bowed down and bowed his hand in a proper manner: "Senior sister! He sighed in his heart, knowing that it was not easy to get close to his residence while Shizun was away. He had almost searched the inner courtyard, but he had not found Deng Sinuo's whereabouts, and the last one who had not been searched and who was the most suspicious was Shizun's residence.

Shen Hongtu said, "What about coming to the master?" He's out, you don't know? Chen Zhen said: "I know." It's just that the participants of the [Young Heroes Conference] have already been decided. This is the first time that our institute has participated in such a grand event, and we must not be careless, so the final list of participants must be confirmed by the master in order to be foolproof. I wonder if the master has returned? ”

Shen Hongtu said: "Not yet." This [Young Heroes Conference] or something, since you have already handed it over to you, Master, you are fully responsible. Chen Zhen said: "That's it, then Chen Zhen will retire." Shen Hongtu said, "Aren't you going to meet our little junior brother?" That's a pretty good little guy. Do you remember [Alchemy]? He's a day faster than you, in just four days! If this momentum continues, our little junior brother, our future achievements are limitless. ”

Chen Zhen said: "The sunshine of the master has always been wrong. It's a pity that I'm still going to be busy with the [Young Heroes Conference]. After completing the master's instructions, it is not too late to see this little junior brother again. After saying that, he bowed to Shen Hongtu and turned to leave.

Shen Hongtu said: "Alas, my third junior brother, everything is good, but it is too serious and old-fashioned, and I deserve to be single until now." ”

Two days later, Shen Hongtu found Xi Xue and said, "Little junior brother seems to have something on his mind. Do you miss your roommate Zhang Xiahua? Xi Xue was indeed restless, because according to the ten-day agreement between him and An Hede, if he didn't get it right, An Hede would take action today, especially when he Xi Xue was missing, but he felt that he had hidden it very well, but he didn't expect it to be seen by Shen Hongtu, so he could only smile bitterly: "Senior sister, I went to the Medicine Master Valley two days ago, and I was driven out before I went in." It's ......."

Shen Hongtu said: "Haha, those people have always been like this, you don't need to be familiar with them." By the way, if you asked me to bring it, I already brought it. In addition, Sister Zhang also asked me to bring you something. Well, here you go. ”

After speaking, he threw a white bottle to Xi Ze. I don't want this little bottle to be jade.

Xi Ze's heart was warm, but he asked, "What is this?" Shen Hongtu said: "Sister Zhang said what is [Qi Gathering Pill], saying that it is good for cultivation. Tsk, although the people in the Medicine Master Valley are not likable, their skills are really not small. If this [Qi Gathering Pill] is really effective, I'm afraid it's terrible. ”

Xi Xue nodded, put away Qi Dan first, and then said, "Senior sister, you can start a new course today, right?" ”

Shen Hongtu said: "I know that your kid is anxious." That's fine. This first lesson is called [Refining the Gods]. And this second lesson is [luck]! ”

"Luck?"
