Chapter 49: Elixir
Hearing that Nie Zhenping actually called himself Dongze's girlfriend, Zhao Xiqian couldn't help blushing, and said slightly shyly: "Grandpa Nie, don't get me wrong, I'm just Dongze's classmate." β
After getting acquainted, Zhao Xiqian was not as presumptuous as when she first met, and even the way she called Nie Zhenping changed from the old man before to Grandpa Nie.
"Classmates? Can a classmate come and deliver roast duck to my old man? Nie Zhenping obviously didn't believe it.
"Old Nie," Dong Ze said suddenly, "the duck legs are going to be gone." β
Nie Zhenping hurriedly looked down and said with a smile: "Cut, aren't the duck legs put on the table well?" β
"Oh."
Dong Ze silently picked up the chili noodles, smeared them on the duck legs three layers inside and three layers on the outside, and then said, "It's gone now." β
"......" Nie Zhenping.
Nie Zhenping is old, and if he eats this level of chili duck legs, he will basically not be far from burping.
In order to be able to continue to enjoy the roast duck, Nie Zhenping no longer teased the two, and under Zhao Xiqian's strong request, Nie Zhenping went to wash his dirty hands, and then couldn't wait to return to the yard.
There are not only experimental instruments in the courtyard, but also a lot of daily necessities, and Nie Zhenping seems to sleep in the courtyard with experimental instruments.
The dining table or something is naturally indispensable.
Nibbling on duck wings, Zhao Xiqian was a little puzzled: "Grandpa Nie, is there any other secret hidden in your villa, why don't you go back to the house?" β
Speaking of which, Dong Ze was also a little confused, no matter what Nie Zhenping did on weekdays, he stayed outside, and even washed his hands just now, he washed them under the faucet outside.
"Well...... Secret! Nie Zhenping grinned grinning.
"One virtue with Dongze!" Zhao Xiqian pursed her lips and glanced at Dongze.
Dong Ze couldn't cry or laugh, why did he get involved with himself again?
In fact, Dong Ze told Zhao Xiqian the real secret several times, but this girl never believed it.
"When you're full, you'll have the strength to work!"
Don't look at Nie Zhenping's height is only one meter six, his weight is less than eighty pounds, he looks thin and dry, his appetite is amazing, and he nibbled on two roast ducks alone.
Nie Zhenping wiped the oil on his mouth and excitedly threw himself into the maintenance of the particle centrifugal separator.
Dong Ze and Zhao Xiqian sat on the side, nibbling on roast duck while waiting for Nie Zhenping.
"Dong Ze, are you really sure about the wind and thunder trial?" Zhao Xiqian asked.
"This, it depends on the effect of Lao Nie's potion."
Dong Ze didn't lie, if his rune spirit development level did not improve, according to the current cultivation speed, even if it was the day of the wind and thunder trial, his cultivation would only be able to reach the first level of the rune at most.
However, the people who participated in the Wind and Thunder Trial were all runes, and the best of them were likely to have reached the level of the rune triple realm.
It's not that easy to stand out from this group.
If Nie Zhenping's potion works well and greatly improves his rune spirit development, Dong Ze's cultivation speed can also increase a lot.
"Hey, what's wrong with Thunder Military Academy, you have to go to Jidao University, don't tell me it's all for Tang Yin!" Zhao Xiqian pouted.
If Dong Ze nodded, Zhao Xiqian was really a little jealous, but this jealousy was based on the natural contrast of girls, Zhao Xiqian was more naΓ―ve, and she couldn't even tell the difference between the feelings of friends and boyfriends and girlfriends.
"If the main reason is...... "Higashizawa thought for a moment, "It is said that the Thunder Military Academy is strictly managed, and I don't like to be managed." β
"That's the reason?" Zhao Xiqian was dumbfounded.
Higashizawa smiled and nodded.
That night, Peng Xingzhou also said that the students of the Thunder Military Academy are not the most talented, but their graduates are the strongest, which is actually related to the management model of the Thunder Military Academy.
Thunder Military Academy adopts military-style management, even if it is a bed bug when it is enrolled, it can be trained as a dragon in that high-intensity environment.
And Dong Ze has the memories of his previous life, he doesn't like to be restrained, and prefers to cultivate according to his own plan, so the Thunder Military Academy is the school he doesn't want to go to the last time.
"That's it!"
At this time, Nie Zhenping suddenly threw the wrench in his hand in the corner at random, stood up with his waist up, and said excitedly: "It's finally repaired, and the medicine that will make me famous for a hundred years is about to be born!" β
Dong Ze and Zhao Xiqian were both attracted to attention, and the two put down the roast duck in their hands and came behind Nie Zhenping.
Nie Zhenping washed his hands seriously, and put on a new white coat.
He showed a sense of seriousness that he had never felt before, and even Zhao Xiqian and Dong Ze became serious, as if they were about to perform some ancient ritual.
There were many things on the experimental table that Zhao Xiqian had never seen before, including the teeth of a rune beast, the roots of an old tree, and even a live black toad.
Nie Zhenping rubbed his palms and began to debug step by step, and a weird laugh came out of his mouth from time to time.
"How do I feel that he doesn't feel like a scientist, but like an evil alchemist......" Zhao Xiqian muttered quietly.
Dong Ze didn't reply, he was staring intently at Nie Zhenping's hands.
Although tonight's medicine was not drunk by Dong Ze himself, he also had to keep an eye on it the whole time, for fear that something would go wrong.
After everything was prepared, Nie Zhenping had a test tube in front of him, and in the test tube was a strange light green solution.
"Runic power...... Runic ...... Where is it, I'll look for it......"
Nie Zhenping searched in the "garbage heap" and finally found a piece of rune stone.
After throwing it into the example centrifugal separator, the separator shook for a while, and a wisp of light blue gas slowly flowed down the catheter into the solution in the test tube.
That is the rune power, which can be seen with the naked eye, and it is already considered rich, but compared to Dongze's rune ring, it is still far behind.
The color of the solution in the test tube also gradually changed to dark blue.
"It's done!"
Nie Zhenping picked up the test tube, fanned the mouth of the test tube with his hand, sniffed it carefully, and then showed a satisfied expression:
"It's still the original recipe, it's still the same taste!"
Turning around, Nie Zhenping looked at Dong Ze with bright eyes and said:
"This is the latest half-developed product, but it hasn't been instilled with rune power according to the method you said, but the rune power in the rune fragment is used as a guide, do you want to try it first?"
"Don't." Higashizawa decisively refused.
Nie Zhenping touched his nose, his expression a little embarrassed.
"I'll help you catch a mouse." Higashizawa said.
"No, no, no, how can my invention be drunk by mice...... I...... I ......"
Nie Zhenping glanced left and right and found that there was really no target to choose from.
When Dong Ze and Zhao Xiqian didn't react, Nie Zhenping suddenly pinched his nose and swallowed all the liquid in the test tube into his mouth in one gulp!
"Grandpa Nie!"
Zhao Xiqian suddenly panicked, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Nie Zhenping, but the test tube in his hand had bottomed out.
"Vomit ......"
Nie Zhenping retched and said with some embarrassment: "The taste is a little choking, next time I will try to make it into strawberry-flavored ......."
