Chapter 67: The Soul Bell
After calmly discarding all the waste materials in her hands, she took out several other alternative medicinal materials and continued to experiment.
As a result, the result of the practice made Cheng Yuxi very distressed, and the medicinal materials used to replace him had been changed nearly five times, but each time the result was unsatisfactory.
Although Cheng Yuxi's heart was not the slightest anxious, she still felt a little frustrated when she looked at the table full of scraps.
However, she has always been the kind of person who becomes more and more courageous the more she fights, and she also knows in her heart that there is no way to rush for quick success in refining pills, and after failing a few times, she began to consult various ancient books, intending to learn from the experience of her predecessors and see if she still needs to improve anything.
In this way, Cheng Yuxi locked herself in the room and refined the pill for an afternoon, and finally made some progress, and at the same time, a big problem was also exposed: the small alchemy furnace she used could not withstand the power of these herbs impacting each other, and it was easy to cause the internal force to leak out, which was fatal to Cheng Yuxi, who had little internal force.
Once again, she felt that the internal force condensed in her dantian seemed to be drained in an instant, and she leaned against the table with some detachment.
The piece that had been opened was quietly placed in the box, and under the slightly dim light, it exuded a faint light.
"No, you have to change the alchemy furnace." Cheng Yuxi looked at the Dan furnace on his table, which was about the size of a human head, and his face was a little solemn: "But the people who can refine the Dan in the next three days are extremely rare, not to mention the excellent Dan Furnace, it is basically impossible to exist." ”
Unless Cheng Yuxi asked someone to build one for himself.
After thinking for a while, she turned over a piece of iron lump that she had bought at the Wancheng assembly when she went to Xiaocheng before, looking at this ugly thing that was not good-looking, Cheng Yuxi used her own internal strength to simply refine this iron lump, and found that it was very stable, if it was made into a Dan furnace, it might be just right.
And this is also the reason why Cheng Yuxi bought it in the first place.
It's just a lump of iron, and if you want to turn it into an alchemy furnace, you need a lot of preparation, as for the excellent foundry......
Cheng Yuxi rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, wondering if he would try his luck in a relatively large town, such as Chiba City or something.
At this time, there was a knock on the door of Cheng Yuxi's room, and Tang Yan's voice came calmly: "Miss Cheng, Yang Qianyu said that he has something to tell you." ”
Cheng Yuxi paused.
When she came to the room where Yang Qianyu lived temporarily, Yang Qianyu was holding a book, looking down obediently, and when he found Cheng Yuxi walking in, he closed his book, and then said, "Miss Cheng." ”
"Young Master Yang, is there anything wrong? Just now I heard Tang Xi say that you were reading a book, and then as if you remembered something, you hurriedly called me over. ”
Yang Qianyu put his book aside, and then said: "Actually, I remembered something, which was about my father. ”
Cheng Yuxi said: "Please speak." ”
"Before my father followed the woman away, I had noticed the clues between my parents, so I secretly went to my father once, wanting to have a good talk with him, but when I found my father in a restaurant, I saw him sitting with a very beautiful woman, and his face was very ugly." Yang Qianyu frowned and said: "At that time, there was a string of very beautiful silver bells hanging on the woman's body, and when I heard the bell, I felt very uncomfortable, but I didn't care, because I didn't expect my father to be able to do such a thing, so I left angrily." ”
"Then why do you suddenly remember it now? Could it be that something was discovered? Cheng Yuxi asked.
Yang Qianyu nodded hurriedly, he took a somewhat damaged book in his hand, opened it in front of Cheng Yuxi, and said: "This book was given to me by Miss Tang Shi casually when I went to the Cheng Family Library because I was bored, this should be an anecdotal book, and there is a mention of this bell - this is it!" Yang Qianyu pointed to the bell on the screen with a solemn face, and then said: "This bell is called the Soul Bell, which can confuse people's minds and consume people's will, so that this person will listen to the words of the owner of the bell willingly!" ”
When Cheng Yuxi saw the picture of this bell, she was also shocked in her heart, she never knew that this kind of thing would appear here in the next three days!
Dementor bells?
Coupled with what Yang Qianyu saw before, a truth quickly surfaced.
Yang Qianyu's father may not have abandoned the Yang family and planned to go with this woman because of his heart, it is very likely that he was confused by the soul bell, so he did such a thing!
"But we can't jump to conclusions now, and I have to see your father to make a judgment on the specific situation." Cheng Yuxi said.
Yang Qianyu nodded hurriedly, and then he said: "This is natural, although my father has left the Yang family, but I can still communicate with my father through letters, I will immediately write a letter to my father later, and agree to meet at the Drunken Immortal Building after a while, and then ask Miss Cheng to help me take a look, whether my father is controlled by the soul bell!" ”
Cheng Yuxi nodded.
That night, Yang Qianyu left Cheng's house.
Cheng Yuxi looked at the back of Yang Qianyu leaving, and said slowly to Tang Yan: "Did you find it, Yang Qianyu has never told us why he was attacked by someone and then fainted in the wild." ”
Tang Yan nodded expressionlessly, and she said, "I should know the person who attacked him, but I don't want to accept it in my heart." ”
"Poor boy." Cheng Yuxi turned around, then smiled lightly at Tang Xian, and said, "Don't talk about it, let's go back first, it's dark and heavy at night." ”
A few days later, Cheng Yuxi was still stagnant in the refining of the green soul, so he planned to pause the refining progress of the green soul first and study the stubborn diseases of the Tang family master.
The poison of the Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flower has existed for a long time, and it is not easy to completely cure it, and it will take many years of recuperation to be able to completely restore the body of the Tang family master to its previous state.
The follow-up recovery process is not very difficult for Cheng Yuxi, the difficult thing is how to remove the poison of the Heavenly Maiden's scattered flowers.
Because the root of the disease is too deep, it cannot be uprooted at one time, but can only be cut down like a tree, one axe at a time, and then slowly cut down the tree.
At the same time, Yang Qianyu's letter to his father also responded, and he and Cheng Yuxi made an appointment to meet at noon the next day in the white mulberry room on the third floor of the Zuixian Building.
Cheng Yuxi simply had nothing to do, so she went early, and there was a small cubicle next to Bai Sangjian, which was originally used for those dancing geisha to play tunes, and she happened to sit in the cubicle.
This compartment is very cleverly designed so that you can see the outside from the inside, but the people outside have no way to see the scene inside, only some of the sounds inside.
After Cheng Yuxi waited quietly in the compartment for a while, he heard some messy footsteps coming from the door of Bai Sangjian, and Yang Qianyu walked in with a cold face, followed by a tall man in dark gray clothes.
Presumably this should be Yang Qianyu's father, Yang Qianli.
But Cheng Yuxi didn't expect that Yang Qianli was not the only one who came this time, when Yang Qianli walked in and sat down, a woman dressed in enchanting clothes followed behind and walked in with a smile.
She was dressed in pale pink clothes, her black and bright hair was pulled up by delicate and beautiful steps, she was slender, convex and backward, with a shallow smile between her eyebrows, and she looked like a woman from a scholarly family.
Cheng Yuxi found that on her waist, sure enough, there was a string of beautiful silver bells, which made a faint sound as she walked.
After the three of them sat down, Yang Qianyu stared at the woman coldly, and then said, "Father, why did you call her together?" ”
Yang Qianli's face was a little pale, he slowly drank a cup of tea, and then said, "Yu'er, don't be so rude. ”
"Don't call me Yu'er!" Yang Qianyu dropped the chopsticks directly.
Cheng Yuxi was stunned, he didn't expect Yang Qianyu to look like a child, but he turned out to be so mature and had such a big temper.
"Yang Gongzi, don't be angry." The woman sitting next to her said with a smile: "Your father is also for your good, Young Master Yang." ”
The woman's voice was strange, a little sharp, and it sounded very uncomfortable.
Yang Qianyu said coldly: "This is my matter with my father, and it has nothing to do with you." Please also keep your mouth shut. ”
Yang Qianli slapped the table directly, and he scolded: "Yu'er! That's what your father taught you on weekdays! ”
"Hmph." Yang Qianyu retorted sharply: "On weekdays, is this how grandpa taught you?" Abandon your wife and degrade yourself to such a point for the sake of a strange woman! ”
"You-" Yang Qianli was angry, and the woman next to him hurriedly hugged his arm, and then started a round.
"Okay, okay, you all don't have to argue anymore." The woman said softly: "Young Master Yang is young and vigorous, it's better to be less angry with your father, otherwise, aren't you worried that your father is getting farther and farther away from you?" ”
The woman's words can be said to have reached Yang Qianyu's heart, and his whole person was stunned.
