Chapter 118: Farewell
"When I first entered Wuji Mountain, I didn't believe that climbing the dragon ladder would be so magical and powerful, so I tried it after breaking through the four-star spirit queen, but as soon as one foot touched the second layer, I was shocked by the powerful force everywhere, and my body was injured both inside and outside, and it took three months to fully recover. Qi Yuexian said with some trepidation.
Qin Cheng blinked his eyes: "So dangerous?"
"Hey, it's dangerous, but you won't get hurt if you don't climb hard. Qi Motian interjected with a smile, "When the old man broke through the Spirit Emperor, he also went to climb once, but he stopped on the second step for less than three breaths and felt that he couldn't hold on, so he quickly jumped down, just rested for three days." ”
Qin Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, if he took the initiative to retreat, he would not be seriously injured, then he could still try, otherwise he would be seriously injured as long as the climb failed, it would be too dangerous.
Qi Yue first continued: "I think with your talent, it is absolutely no problem to climb to the second layer, even if the third layer will be difficult, it will not be too big, and it will definitely be able to go up." The key is the fourth layer, which is very difficult, and if you can't climb it, you must not force it. ”
Qi Motian also nodded and said, "Yes." If you climb to the third layer, you will become an inner disciple, and if you perform well in the future, you may also be appreciated by the elders and become a core disciple, so if you find that the fourth layer is not going up, there is no need to take the risk of rushing. ”
Qin Cheng nodded and said, "Okay." When the time comes, I'll try, and once I see that the situation is not good, I will immediately retreat. ”
"By the way, there is one more thing, this time you go to Wuji Mountain, I think you can just sit on the flying boat of the Immortal Chamber of Commerce, after all, Wang Zhenfan is dead, and no one will intercept and kill you." Qi Motian suggested.
Qin Cheng was a little hesitant, he always had an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling when he saw the people of the Ask Immortal Chamber of Commerce, but when he thought about it seriously, it seemed that in addition to killing the shopkeeper Sun of the Ask Immortal Chamber of Commerce, that is, Sun Jianshuang's father, it seemed that he had not had any other conflicts with the Ask Immortal Chamber of Commerce, and the matter of killing the shopkeeper Sun had not been exposed so far.
Thinking of this, Qin Cheng no longer hesitated, nodded and said, "Okay." Then I'll take the flying boat of the Immortal Chamber of Commerce to Wuji Mountain. ”
He didn't know, in fact, Sun Jianshuang not only knew that he had killed the shopkeeper Sun, but also confirmed that he had mastered the method of refining the elixir, and even wanted to capture him alive.
Qin Cheng didn't know this, and the Qi family didn't know about this, so Qi Yuezu smiled and said, "Ask the Immortal Chamber of Commerce's flying boat to fly to Wuji City in five days, and I'll go to Sun Jianshuang to talk about this later, and he will definitely agree." ”
"Hmm. Then this matter will be handed over to Yue Zu. Qi Motian nodded, "You can live in my Qi family for the past five days, and if you have anything to tell the housekeeper and the little maid, you can also come directly to the three of us." ”
"Good. Qin Cheng smiled and nodded, not polite, if he was polite at this time, it would seem to be angry.
From this day on, Qin Cheng stayed at the Qi family, but he went to the Alchemist Guild that afternoon.
After all, he hadn't been to the Alchemist Guild for several months. In the months before and after the dispute between the young kings, the Wang family had always wanted to kill him, so he didn't dare to leave the Qi family without Qi Motian's protection.
Now that Wang Zhenfan is dead, he should be relatively safe in the Anxi Domain Mansion, so he wants to go to the Alchemist Guild to meet Master Mo Ruqian.
Compared to the tense and murderous atmosphere in the Anxi Domain Mansion due to the fall of the Wang family, the inside of the Alchemist Guild was still so quiet and peaceful, filled with a strong medicinal fragrance.
After saying hello to the guard Song Senior at the gate, Qin Cheng walked into the Alchemist Guild.
"Hey, Senior Brother Nalan. ”
As soon as he walked into the Alchemist Guild, a familiar voice sounded, Qin Cheng turned his head to look, and saw the door of the small courtyard next to him, Zhou Fang looked at him with a smile.
"Senior Brother Zhou. Qin Cheng smiled lightly and hugged his fist.
Zhou Fang didn't expect Qin Cheng's attitude to be so humble after winning the Young King, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled even more grandly: "Senior Brother Nalan has come to the guild for the first time since he won the Young King." ”
"Hmm. Qin Cheng smiled and nodded, without talking to Zhou Fang much, his footsteps kept walking inside.
He had a bit of a stiff quarrel with Zhou Fang's sister Zhou Lingfeng at the auction, Zhou Fang couldn't have been unaware, but he knew that he had taken the initiative to greet him so enthusiastically, either it was too generous, or it was too hypocritical and insidious, Qin Cheng thought that Zhou Fang couldn't be the former, only the latter.
Looking at Qin Cheng's back, Zhou Fang still had a smile on his face, but his eyes were a little cold, and when Qin Cheng walked more than ten zhang away, he sneered and turned around and entered his small courtyard.
Today happened to be Mo Ruqian's shift, so Qin Cheng walked directly into the main hall.
Stepping through the temple gate, Qin Cheng found that Mo Ruqian was instructing Huang Jingxuan in alchemy.
Mo Ruqian turned his head when he heard the footsteps, and when he saw Qin Cheng's eyes lit up, his face was suddenly full of smiles: "You're back?"
Just one sentence, but it made Qin Cheng's heart suddenly warm, and his nose had a sour feeling.
"This time has made the master worried. Qin Cheng clenched his fists and bowed.
"Haha, it made me not sleep well for many days, but I am also proud to have you, the apprentice of the young king. Mo Ruqian smiled, "Come on, I'm explaining the alchemy technique to Jing Xuan, you can listen to it together." ”
"Yes. Qin Cheng walked to the side of the Dan furnace, and said to Huang Jingxuan with a slight fist: "Senior Brother Huang." ”
A trace of unnaturalness flashed on Huang Jingxuan's face, and he continued to stare at the Dan furnace with a "hmm", no longer paying attention to Qin Cheng.
Qin Cheng smiled indifferently, standing on the other side of Mo Ruqian and listening carefully to Mo Ruqian's explanation.
Half a day later, the sky was about to get dark, Mo Ruqian stopped explaining, Qin Cheng had a feeling of unfinished, he hadn't done much alchemy for so long, and he was familiar with the techniques and theories of alchemy again, which made him have a very wonderful understanding, many things that he hadn't figured out before, but now he actually understood it all at once.
Mo Ruqian saw at a glance that Qin Cheng had some understanding, and nodded with satisfaction: "Your understanding is really amazing. Although your cultivation talent is higher, I suggest that you don't lose the skill of alchemy. ”
"Master, I will never leave the skill of alchemy, I will only practice it better and better. Qin Cheng assured with a smile.
"Hmm. That's good. Mo Ruqian smiled, "By the way, are you still going to Wuji Mountain?"
"The apprentice still has to go. In five days, I will take the flying boat of the Immortal Chamber of Commerce to Wuji City. Qin Cheng said, "This time I came to say goodbye to Master." ”
Huang Jingxuan on the side raised his eyebrows, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes - Qin Cheng is gone, and his chances of obtaining a place for further study in the Huang Yanzhou Alchemist Guild are very high.
