Chapter 7: The Alchemist
Shi Rou's eyebrows and eyes smiled crookedly, and the mood of being ruined by the group of guys who didn't have long eyes before was suddenly swept away.
"Uh-huh......? Look at you laughing like you've eaten a weasel's chicken. ”
Shi Rou choked, looked sideways funny, and saw a young man dressed in a short dozen brocade squatting on a cyan boulder not far away, with a pair of dark smart and innocent eyes staring at her, revealing a faint displeasure.
"Qing'er, chickens can't eat weasels." Shi Rou smiled softly.
"Hmph, but you can." Shi Qing turned his head, and after a while, his innocent eyes turned, and he asked ignorantly and with concern, "Are the Yang family and our family no longer one family?" ”
Shi Rou was slightly stunned, and said indifferently: "Yes, it's no longer a family." ”
Suddenly, Shi Qing's eyes burst out with surprise, jumped down from the bluestone, suddenly came to Shi Rou's side, grabbed her hand, and a sun-like smile bloomed on his face: "That's great, I have long hated that guy named Yang Tianqing." ”
Tall enough to envelop Shi Rou, his figure contrasted sharply with the childlike innocence on his face.
Shi Rou's heart couldn't help but hurt.
Shi Qing is a child brought back by his father Shi Qianjun when he was young, and was adopted as a righteous son, when she was five years old and Shi Qing was seven years old, her father had met an enemy on the eve of going out to travel, when the enemy caught her, it was Shi Qing who took the initiative to throw himself into the arms of the man and was robbed, although his father went to rescue him afterwards, but from then on, his intelligence stayed forever at that time, and never changed.
"Qing'er......" Shi Rou's expression was stained with sadness.
"Come here."
"Huh?" Shi Rou was stunned, but saw Shi Qing squatting down, with his back to her, and his hands behind his back in a lifting posture, actually trying to let herself climb onto his back.
In the past, when Shi Qing was a child, he would often carry her like this, taking her around the yard, and he was extremely happy at that time, but now it doesn't seem like this, right? It's all such a big person......
"Hurry up." Shi Qing urged, turning back to glare at her with eyes, expressing his impatience.
"Come on, what's the murder?" Shi Rou muttered, carefully climbed onto Shi Qing's back, and suddenly felt that his body was suddenly taller.
Shi Qing carried Shi Rou on his back, jumped into the air with one kick, landed on the roof of the courtyard house, and the next moment he jumped again, jumped on the eaves of another house, stopped slightly, and jumped on a big tree next to him.
At the foot is the small bridge and flowing water, beside him is the green tree and kingfisher crying, looking up is the blue sky and blue sky, the wind is whistling in the ear, Shi Rou rarely smiled.
Hearing Shi Rou's laughter, Shi Qing also laughed out loud.
The brother and sister were happy to have fun in the mansion, and they also made everyone in the Shi family laugh, and the dark clouds hanging over the stone mansion finally dissipated a lot at this time.
In the midst of laughter, the two came to the top of the bamboo forest in the backyard, and Shi Rou saw that there seemed to be a figure flickering in the dense forest.
With a move in his heart, Shi Rou said, "That's it, Qing'er, let me go." ”
Falling outside the bamboo forest, Shi Rou coaxed softly: "Qing'er, go back to practice quickly, and wait for you to show your power in a few days." ”
Shi Qing nodded obediently: "En!" ”
Shi Rou turned around and walked towards the depths of the dense forest, the nine-song corridor, the sixty-four hexagram arrays, one wrong step is a wrong step, this place was opened by his father in the past for Uncle Yun, who likes to be pure, and let him live here alone.
However, Uncle Yun should have been recruited into the capital by the emperor half a month ago, and now he is not at home, how can there be a figure in the dense forest?
When he arrived outside the thatched hut surrounded by a babbling stream, he saw a dark figure sitting at the stone table outside the house, looking at a plate of rugs on the stone table, and his eyebrows were as misty as a cloud of smoke, as if he was thinking.
"Uncle Yun?" Shi Rou was surprised and walked quickly to Yun Chou's side.
Yun Chou raised his head and turned to look at her, his elegant eyebrows suddenly stretched out, his thin lips were lightly hooked, the light veil on the outside of his robe floated, and a few strands of long hair like ink slipped from his shoulders, as if the clouds were changing beautifully.
The moment he saw Shi Rou, he was slightly stunned: "Have you broken through your talent?" ”
"Yes." Shi Rou was not surprised that Yun Chou could see it at a glance, because he was so discerning. As a rare military division who accompanied Shi Qianjun to sweep thousands of armies, strategized thousands of miles away, and had no last resort, Yun Chou has always been a representative of wisdom, and it is common to see micro-knowledge.
Like a child who sees an elder who urgently needs praise, she shows a girlish smile to Yun Chou.
If someone else saw Shi Rou like this, they would definitely be shocked.
Shi Rou said happily: "Didn't you go to the capital?" How did you end up here? ”
"It's just a wisp of primordial god clones here." Yun Chou said lightly.
Shi Rou's heart sank.
Genshin? Doppelganger? What kind of state has Uncle Yun reached to be able to do such a thing? It's simply unheard of.
The cultivation of the Mingshen Continent is divided into five major realms: the Qi Refining Realm, the Yuan Movement Realm, the Foundation Building Realm, the Yuan Dan Realm, and the Merge Realm, and each major realm is divided into nine small realms.
Everyone in the world says, "If you don't build a foundation, you can't practice." ”
It is said that the vast majority of people in this world have no chance to step into the foundation building, only because of the third-order talent can it be possible to build the foundation, the fourth-order talent can advance to the Yuan Dan realm, and the fifth-order talent can reach the frightening and even rival the power of a country.
It is rumored that above the combined realm is the realm of immortals, turning over the hands into clouds and covering the hands into rain, and destroying the territory of a country is only between breaths!
But if you don't have the corresponding talent, it is more difficult to cross the realm than to ascend to the sky.
In the past, all Shi Rou knew was the side of Yun Chou's strategizing and exhausting calculations. Now it seems that my cultivation is not low.
But that's right, how can a person who can be invited to the position of worship in the Ye Empire Dynasty be weak?
"What level of talent do you have now? What kind of metabase? Yun Chou asked lightly.
"Seventh-order talent, ice and fire elemental base." Shi Rou smiled softly.
Yun Chou's eyes flashed with brilliance, and then he turned around, and the dearest fell lightly on the endgame that had not been moved for a long time: "After so many years, you have no talent and are despised, have you ever wavered?" ”
"No, I didn't."
A slight smile finally appeared on the face of the clouds as light as water, and the misty smoke and clouds gathered and dispersed, which was both beautiful and unreal: "I have always let you cultivate the two systems of ice and fire, but if you increase the one system, the speed of cultivation will be doubled, and the two systems will be restrained by each other, and the difficulty will be even slower than ten times, greatly delaying the time for you to break through your talent, have you ever regretted it?" ”
"No, I didn't. Since Uncle Yun has taught me this, he must have your intentions. What's more, if this were not the case, how could Rou'er's speed and affinity for communicating with the vitality of heaven and earth reach the point where it is today? It is even more impossible to have a strong vitality that far surpasses that of his peers as soon as he breaks through his talent. ”
Yun Chou nodded faintly: "Yes, the ice system and the fire system are diametrically opposed, but their fusion is of great significance. Everyone in the world thinks that the dual systems of wood and fire are natural alchemists, and they are hot, but they don't know that the real peak alchemists are all ice and fire, but such people are difficult to find in the world. ”
"You are born with a fire hidden in the Ice Yuan Base, no matter which Yuan Base you cultivate, it is a smooth path, but it will annihilate the other, if so, it would be a pity."
After a pause, he added, "Now, it's very good. ”
The thick and slender eyebrows and eyes are like smoke, and when they are stretched, they are like an ink painting, which penetrates into people's hearts.
Shi Rou was slightly stunned.
She didn't expect to hear the word alchemist from Yun Chou's mouth.
Alchemist, as the name suggests, can refine elixirs for people to practice, advance and even prolong life.
As soon as she spreads her reputation as an alchemist, countless families and academies will compete to take her under their wings, protect her, and give everything they have for her to grow.
Because there is no one in ten thousand who can achieve such conditions, and the more high-level the elixir, the more priceless it is, and its existence, each in exchange for a family commitment, an academy oath!
It is the existence of an alchemist who has always been recognized by everyone as something that cannot be provoked, because it represents a huge network of forces and relationships behind it.
And she can even become an alchemist?
"I'll see if you punch a set." Yun Chou's expression paused slightly, and then said.
"Yes."
Shi Rou stepped out, her body was like flowing water, her punches were like the wind, and she was elusive without a trace.
This set of "Wandering Boxing" was created by a boxing master who had reached the realm of integration in the past, and it was widely spread, but there were many people who could play this set of boxing, and there were very few people who could play the essence of boxing.
"Draw the knife and cut off the water, and punch the fire." The sound of Yun Chou is also ethereal.
In an instant, the cold vitality in Shi Rou's hand quickly gathered, and he actually formed an ice blade, which slashed forward, and the ice blade shot into the stream by the thatched hut, and the sharp blade made the flowing water block for a moment. Then it was mastered into a fist, and the scorching fist was recycled like the wind, sparks shot in all directions, and pieces of fire flowed.
Yun Chou bowed slightly: "It seems that your Qi refining kung fu cultivation is good." In that case, come with me. ”
With that, Yun Chou got up and floated to the side of the hut like a cloud, and the next moment, the figure had entered the dense forest.
Shi Rou followed closely, and the two of them came to a strangely shaped boulder more than two people tall in the bamboo forest.
I saw Yun Chou's palm gently lifted upward, and a sufficient yuan force appeared under the boulder out of thin air, and the boulder shook violently, shooting to the side suddenly, smashing a piece of green bamboo on the ground.
Underneath the boulder, there was a mouthful of ancient texture, dark luster but revealing an indescribable ancient atmosphere.
There was a deep place in the ding, and there was an occasional flash of brilliance during it, and there was no trace for a moment, and a surging and ethereal aura rushed towards him, hitting Shi Rou's chest thumping.
"...... this?" Shi Rou calmed her trembling mind a little and asked out loud.
A trace of complicated emotions flashed in the cloud-thick eyes, like disgust, pain, and reluctance, and then closed his eyes, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "You accepted it." ”
"Huh?" Shi Rou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted.
It is impossible for spiritual weapons and magic weapons in this world to be recognized as the master and included in the dantian, so ...... Could it be that this Fang Ding is a treasure that is difficult for ordinary people to find?!
"Yes." Shi Rou's heart was excited, and without hesitation, she condensed her qi and forced out a drop of essence blood, which suddenly catapulted onto Dafang Ding.
Suddenly, Dafang Ding burst out with dazzling brilliant light, full of colors, inclusive of thousands, and there were countless Danfang and spirit grass that had been refined faintly in the brilliance, which was overwhelming.
This scene was so beautiful and so strange that Shi Rou didn't notice it, and a few strange streamers flashed on Yun Chou's body beside her.
The light stopped for a while, and Shi Rou only felt a flash in front of her eyes, and a large square tripod with a width of a zhang continued to shrink in size, turning into the size of a square seal, and suddenly disappeared into her dantian.
"Let's go." Without waiting for Shi Rou to come back to his senses, Yun Chou's figure flashed, and the person was already ten zhang away.
Shi Rou quickly restrained the joy and surprise in her heart, and hurriedly followed.
On the edge of the thatched house, Yun Chou stood with his hands in his hands, and his figure was like a dream: "Seventh-order talent, purple brilliance...... You are very smart, you really listen to my teachings, ice and fire double cultivation, otherwise the vision of heaven and earth before would not be thunder and fire and clouds and rain in parallel, but the sky will fall on fire, and snow will fly in June, which is a wonder and a disaster, once someone discovers your existence, for you, although it is an opportunity, it is also a fatal disaster. ”
"Of course, genius is loved by everyone, but if you are too genius, you will become a demon, which makes people fear and want to deal with it quickly. Remember, don't show your talent in front of people at will, fortunately, Qiu Yunding can help you cover it up so that it won't be discovered. ”
"Yes, Rou'er strictly follows Uncle Yun's teachings." It turned out that it was called Qiu Yunding. Qiu Yun, Yun Chou...... Could it be that this is the medicine tripod that Uncle Yun used before?
"Go ahead." Yun Chou was speechless, pushed the door and entered the hut.
Shi Rou bowed and saluted, and soon returned to the courtyard where he lived.
Taking out a few top-grade Yuan Stones sent by Mu Liuyun, Shi Rou sat cross-legged on the couch, now that the time is urgent, it is imperative to cultivate and quickly improve cultivation with the help of the top-grade Yuan Stone with profound vitality. Not to mention Yin Qiushui, who has re-condensed his talent, Yang Tianqing, who has been cultivating for more than ten years, is very difficult to deal with, so he really has to thank Mu Liuyun for his gift.
Mu Liuyun's handsome face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling suddenly crossed his mind, and in an instant, his chic and dignified appearance turned into an embarrassing face with a wandering expression, and Shi Rou couldn't help but laugh "poof".
However, the identity of that guy ...... Presumably the results will be available in two days.
Shaking her head, Shi Rou didn't think much about it, gathered her mind, and continued to cultivate.
