Black and cold.

When Zhao Peng returned to Zhaojiashan, it was already before dawn.

At this moment, the light between heaven and earth is the darkest and the darkest.

The stars and the moon have no light, the sun has not yet risen, and the five fingers are not visible.

Only the image of the huge tiger on the Zhao family's white tiger dojo glows with radiant light, but because Zhao Peng has left the Zhao family's compound for a long time, this white tiger has been hazy and almost dissipated.

Inside the compound, there was silence.

The people of the Zhao family all lived in the White Tiger Dojo to guard against a sudden attack by the enemy.

Many guards of the Zhao family guarded around the White Tiger Dojo.

When these people saw a white light appear in the air, they looked at it and found that it was a white stone futon, and their expressions immediately became overjoyed, and they rushed to tell each other the news of Zhao Peng's return.

Unconsciously, Zhao Peng has become the spiritual pillar of the Zhao family.

It's a pity that things are wrong, and in the past nearly a year, many things have happened in the Zhao family, and even Luo'er is far away.

Sou!

The white stone futon flashed brightly and fell into the compound.

Zhao Peng shot a spell into the air, driving the Ten Thousand Tigers Great Array, and the image of the white tiger that appeared in the sky above the White Tiger Dojo slowly disappeared.

Zhao Peng nodded towards Guanlan and walked towards his small courtyard in the White Tiger Dojo.

There are many alchemy furnaces in the courtyard, which are exuding the fragrance of pills.

"From today on, you will stay in my Zhao family, as for where you live, you can ask the patriarch yourself. ”

Zhao Peng looked at the Ding furnace placed in the courtyard, cast a fire control dragon hand, adjusted the flame under the alchemy furnace slightly, and then turned around and stared at Guanlan, "Among these alchemy furnaces, the refining is the dragon snake quenching pill and a kind of pill that people in the Xuanmen can take, but the way of refining this pill is a little special, every morning and evening, the second fire of civil and military affairs must be replaced. Yesterday, for your sake, I left the Zhao family's compound and went to Jishi City to find the panda people's predecessors, delaying the time to replace the civil and military flames, and I don't know if these pills will become waste pills. ”

The fact that the Zhao family can refine pills, Guanlan has long heard of it.

However, for a great master of the Xuanmen such as Guanlan, the Dragon and Snake Quenching Pill refined by the Zhao family was not a shocking martial arts pill, but Zhao Peng said that the pills refined in these alchemy furnaces were not only the Dragon and Snake Quenching Pills, but also a kind of pill that people in the Xuanmen could take.

Doesn't this mean that Zhao Peng has the strength to refine the Xuanmen Pill?

"Atonement!"

Guanlan's expression changed slightly, but he didn't know what to do.

"It is of no use to me that I rebuke you. As for making you compensate, it will not help, and besides, you have surrendered to me, so why should I need you to compensate me?"

Zhao Peng stared at Guanlan, and suddenly his expression became a little sharp, and said: "The pill refining has been abolished, and you can continue to refine it, but my Zhao family has not had a great master for a long time over the years, and you can be regarded as the first master of the Xuanmen Grand Grandmaster level in my Zhao family in a hundred years." I only hope that in the days to come, you, the great master of the Xuanmen, must not let me down, otherwise you will ......"

The cold killing machine appeared in Zhao Peng's eyes.

He made no secret of his murderous intent towards Guanlan.

Guanlan's heart froze, but his eyes did not change in the slightest, and he refused to back down even half a point in his tone, still with a bit of arrogance, and said: "Since I surrender to the Zhao family, I must do my best! The pill is dead, the person is alive, I am an upright Xuanmen Grand Master, how can I not even compare to this kind of pill?"

You can say that again!

This remark is exactly in line with Zhao Peng's intentions.

If Guanlan can't do this, why should he let Guanlan surrender?

The Zhao family is a martial arts family inherited from ancient times, and the background can be said to be unparalleled in the world, and the martial arts foundation of the Zhao family can be said to be extremely deep, but it is a pity that the strength is too poor.

What Zhao Peng was worried about was the current low strength of the Zhao family.

With Guanlan, it can just make up for the lack of strength of the Zhao family's martial arts.

If it weren't for that, Zhao Peng might as well kill Guanlan directly, and with the Void Gem she carried, he would definitely be able to get a lot of useful things.

Zhao Shanhe once told Zhao Peng that among the void gems left by Dugu Shen, there were many pills of various colors, as well as more than a dozen red sandalwood the size of thumbs, and I don't know what it does.

Now that Guanlan is here, she and Dugu Shen are the same people, and they must know where those elixirs and red sandalwood in Dugu Shen's void gem come from.

"I've been refining this furnace of elixir for some time. It won't be long before the seven-seven-forty-nine day deadline is reached, and if the pill can be refined, it is not impossible to give you a few. ”

Zhao Peng pointed to the alchemy furnace that was alchemizing, glanced deeply at Guanlan, and then said seemingly unintentionally, "The Xuanmen Pill refined in this Dan furnace is called Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill, have you heard of it?"

Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill!

Guanlan's eyes lit up, and he was speechless for a while.

"Haven't heard of it?"

Zhao Peng's expression moved slightly, and he thought: "The palace family is really very mysterious, this kind of Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill should have some reputation, but Guanlan, as a great master of Xuanmen, has never heard of it. ”

"Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill?"

Guanlan suddenly spoke up and exclaimed, "This Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill is not the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill of the palace family?"

Zhao Peng nodded.

"Congratulations, thank you, Lord!"

Guan Lan bowed to Zhao Peng suddenly, his eyes were full of joy, and said: "The Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill of the Dianjia family, in the martial arts world on our side, belongs to the top three pills in the Xuanmen Pills!

The Xuanmen Pill is the pill taken by the people in the Xuanmen.

In this Shouxing martial arts world, there are also Xuanmen pills, the most widely known of which is called the Soul Gathering Pill, and even in the Datang black market, there are occasional people who sell them, all of which are hard to find in the world.

When Zhao Peng heard Guanlan say this, he immediately became interested and asked: "What is the beauty of this Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill, that it can be recited by the world for a long time, and it can rank in the top three among the Xuanmen Pills?"

"There is a saying in the "Book of Medicine" that it is three parts of poison!"

Guanlan's expression was straight, and he slowly suppressed the previous surprise, and said: "Most of us martial arts people in alchemy will add things like lead and mercury to the alchemy furnace to reconcile the medicinal power. However, lead and mercury are already poisonous and will gradually corrode people's flesh. No matter how rare the elixir is, once you eat too much, it will also leave toxins in the body, and over time, it will even cause the flesh of people in the martial arts to slowly decay, and even gradually wither and dry up like dead wood!

Zhao Peng has the ability to never forget, and is familiar with the scriptures, "The Book of Medicine" is widely circulated, it is the most basic classic of alchemy, Zhao Peng has already read it.

It's a medicine that is poisonous!

Zhao Peng remembered this sentence.

Previously, Zhao Peng thought that this sentence was only applicable to drugs used by ordinary people, but he didn't expect Guanlan to say that when people in martial arts make pills, they will add lead and mercury to the alchemy furnace, so that after people in martial arts take pills, toxins will accumulate in the body, and over time, there will be more and more toxins in the body, and then the body will wither.

Zhao Peng clearly remembered that among the two alchemy pills that Dian Wushuang gave him, there was no text about lead and mercury. Whether it is the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill or the Dragon Snake Quenching Body Pill, although many of the alchemy materials used are very precious and rare medicinal materials, there is nothing related to lead and mercury at all.

The temple is unparalleled......

Which tall and beautiful, outstanding figure appeared in Zhao Peng's heart, and he asked abruptly: "Is it a three-part poison of medicine, does it mean that the elixir in the world has three parts of toxin?"

Guanlan nodded and said, "Exactly!"

Zhao Peng frowned slightly, and asked: "Since the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill has no toxins at all, why can it only enter the top three, but it is not the first Xuanmen Pill in the world?

Guanlan said: "Because the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill is rare in the world, it can even be said that this pill only exists in the rumors of everyone, so it is not listed as the first Xuanmen Pill in the world. I don't know about other martial arts forces, anyway, in Jincheng, for a hundred years, no one has seen the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill. ”

I see.

Guanlan, a person in the martial arts world, is because he has never seen the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill, just according to the relevant rumors, the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill is listed as the top three Xuanmen Pills, if it is about the real efficacy, I am afraid that the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill should be ranked first, and other pills are not comparable to this Dan.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll lie to you?"

Zhao Peng stared at Guanlan, he clearly remembered that when he said that the elixir in this alchemy furnace was the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill, Guanlan's tone and attitude suddenly made a big reversal, and he actually called him the lord.

The term lord has a long history.

This is the title of the monarch of his courtiers.

It is also the honorific title of the slave to the master.

Although Guanlan had surrendered to Zhao Peng before, he never took the initiative to speak to Zhao Peng, let alone take the initiative to greet Zhao Peng.

Now he calls the word "lord".

This shows how big the change in Guanlan's attitude is.

Guanlan has already calmed down, after all, she is a figure in the realm of the Great Grandmaster of Xuanmen, although she was shocked by the Xuanting Soul Condensing Pill before, but now she has calmed down and regained her inherent unique temperament again, and her body is filled with a heroic aura that is no less than that of ordinary men, and she said slowly: "I am the lord's retainer, everything I have is controlled by the lord, the lord only needs to move his mind to decide my life and death, and the lord has no need to lie to me." ”
