"Hey, who are you?"

The little girl looked at Xiao Yan curiously and couldn't help asking.

"I'm a freshman who just came to the inner courtyard, Xiao Yan, what's your name, little sister?"

Xiao Yan couldn't help but glance at the Vajra Bodhisattva who was bitten by the girl and was left with clear tooth marks, even if the alchemist used the Dou Qi flame to calcinate it with all his might, it took a lot of effort, but this little girl took a bite of this thing like a fruit.

He couldn't help but be curious about the identity of this little girl, gnawing on Vajra Bodhisattva, Xiao Yan thought that he didn't have such a good tooth mouth.

Could it be that this little girl is the granddaughter of one of the elders in this inner court?

Before the little girl could reply, Xiao Yan couldn't help but continue: "Little sister, this medicinal herb is under the jurisdiction of Elder Hao, you eat it like this, aren't you afraid of his trouble?" ”

"Hmph, I'm not afraid of that old man."

The little girl snorted lightly, and then looked at Xiao Yan, her lilac eyes suddenly became interested.

"You have a lot of creature aura in your body, but it doesn't seem to be your own power, can you have something good?"

The little girl's eyes widened with watery eyes, and she was so cute.

"Breath of life?"

It's just that her words made Xiao Yan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

What kind of soul does he have to say...... Could it be that after staying with Miss Wan for a long time, her breath of life and soul soaking into him?

"I don't have that kind of thing...... But my friend does. ”

The little girl tilted her head and sighed softly, "How can your friend's life breath be on you?" ”

"Forehead ......"

Xiao Yan couldn't help but recall the extraordinarily bold intimate contact with Miss Wan last night, and a little embarrassment flashed on his face.

"It can be a bit complicated to explain......"

"Complex? That's anyway, I don't like complicated things. ”

The little girl said with a faint frown while nibbling on the Vajra Bodhisattva in her hand.

Just looking at Xiao Yan, she seemed to remember something and said vaguely: "By the way, I've seen almost all the people here, but I haven't seen you before?" ”

"Because I just came to the inner courtyard the day before yesterday."

Xiao Yan explained: "I am a freshman in this class, and because I need to refine some special pills, I will come here to look for a medicinal herb called Yan Luozhi. ”

As he spoke, he also pointed to the medicine cabinet not far away, where the smoke branch should have been placed.

The little girl glanced at the medicine cabinet that Xiao Yan was referring to, but she still shook her head, obviously, she had no impression of those medicinal materials at all.

"But, then, you're an alchemist?"

"yes."

Xiao Yan nodded.

"In that case, can you do me a favor?"

The little girl seemed to remember something, and couldn't help but say.

"That depends on the actual situation."

Xiao Yan didn't dare to agree to the stranger's request casually, although this little girl looked quite harmless, but Xiao Yan didn't forget that she was a ruthless person who could bite off Vajra Bodhisattva, and this little girl's teeth were not much worse than his Xuanzhong ruler.

"If you promise me, I will choose the medicinal materials here."

The little girl's words were refreshing, but the corners of Xiao Yan's mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, this little girl really didn't treat herself as an outsider, he can take the medicinal materials here, can she do this?

As if she saw what Xiao Yan was thinking, the girl snorted, and was naturally extremely dissatisfied with the doubts in Xiao Yan's heart, and said, "Who do you think I am?" I will give it to you if I say it will be given to you, and if the old man wants to settle the account, you will say that it will be counted on my head. ”

Even if Xiao Yan was still skeptical, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised by this little girl's inexplicable courage.

"You better tell me what you want me to do for you, otherwise you will give me the entire medicinal herb management library, and I won't dare to ask for it."

Xiao Yan smiled bitterly.

"Simple, aren't you an alchemist? You can refine all kinds of medicinal herbs into pills, right? ”

Seeing Xiao Yan nodding in acquiescence, the little girl continued, "You can help me refine these medicinal materials into pills." ”

"Not to mention anything else, the refined pills are much more delicious than these native medicinal herbs......

After listening to what the little girl said, Xiao Yan's eyelids couldn't help but jump.

"You just eat this herb and pill...... Can the body stand it? ”

Xiao Yan looked up and down at the little girl who was almost up to his chest, it was really hard to imagine that the essence of human refining pills was actually to take its essence and remove its dross, and at the same time blend and blend various medicinal properties that the human body could not bear, and turn them into existences that can be absorbed and called by the human body.

And the little girl in front of her far exceeded Xiao Yan's expectations and cognition of ordinary things.

However, she had already performed the ruthless work of gnawing on Vajra Bodhisattva in front of her, and no matter how much he doubted it, he should believe it now.

“…… Forget it, since you have known each other, it can be regarded as a good fate. ”

Xiao Yan sighed lightly and said.

This little girl was able to enter the medicinal herb management library to gnaw on medicinal herbs, so she didn't look like an ordinary little girl, and maybe she was related to a certain elder of this Canaan Academy.

is reasonable, so it is naturally better to help her.

And he doesn't know much about the inner courtyard now, so this little girl may know a lot of things.

Seeing that Xiao Yan agreed, the little girl was naturally very happy, and took those medicinal herbs and walked outside.

……

When he went out, Xiao Yan explained everything that happened here to Elder Hao, and after seeing that the little devil came to his tooth sacrifice again, he was almost so angry that he couldn't turn his back on it, so he had to wave his hand and let the two of them go.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yan with pity, as if he had fallen into this little girl for eight lifetimes.

Xiao Yan's doubts were even worse, but it seemed that he needed another person to find the answer.

After sending the two away, Elder Hao had no choice but to draw a red circle on the list of medicinal materials she had taken away.

On the way out of the medicinal herb management warehouse, Xiao Yan couldn't help but say, "Little sister, what's your name?" ”

"I'm not a little sister, my name is Ziyan, you are not allowed to call me little sister."

"Ziyan......"

Xiao Yan subconsciously muttered, remembering the name for the time being, and then asked.

"And what about your dad?"

"I don't have a dad."

Ziyan shook her head.

Xiao Yan felt that his mouth was a little dry, but he still asked, "What about your mother?" ”

"I don't have a mother either."

Ziyan continued to shake her head.

“……”

“…… Xiao Yan? Why don't you speak? ”

"No, I'm fine."

Xiao Yan only felt that his throat was very dry, and he felt that he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep tonight.

After Xiao Yan rented a refining pharmacy for the time being, he began to alchemize.

"To be honest, I'm still curious...... Ziyan, you are a human being, how did you manage to eat medicinal herbs raw? ”

"Who said I was human?"

Ziyan's answer choked Xiao Yan again.

"-You're a monster?"

Xiao Yan suddenly felt that all this had become reasonable.

"That's not right, if you're a demonic beast, could it be that you've cultivated to the point where you can transform into a human? Could it be that he is a fighting emperor? ”

Xiao Yan sighed lightly, if the little girl in front of her was a demonic beast, then it was very normal for her to be able to gnaw medicinal herbs raw, but I didn't know what kind of demonic beast this little girl's body was.

"I'm not that strong, but I accidentally ate an extremely rare transformation grass, and then I became like this, and I can't change back, I eat these medicinal herbs, I just want to grow up quickly, and then I can change between the beast body and the human body at will."

Ziyan frowned, mentioning this, she didn't seem to be very interested, so she even spoke in a buzzing tone.

"Shapeshifting grass? No wonder. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yan felt a little suddenly, the transformation grass is the most important material for refining the transformation pill, so it also has some effects of the transformation pill, if the strength reaches the Douhuang level of the demonic beast eats it, it can change into a human body at will, but if the strength is not reached, it will be eaten, and it will stay on the changed human form until its strength breaks through to the Douhuang level.

The chatter continued, and Xiao Yan's movements at hand did not stop, and the medicinal materials that had just been put into the medicine tripod were calcined by different fires, and the impurities were removed, and finally condensed into a pill of uniform size, the size of a fingernail.

Although it looks no different from the pill, Xiao Yan has only calcined this thing with a different fire at most, and ordinary people are afraid that they will die if they eat this fake medicine.

With a move of his hand, he filled these pills with a jade bottle, and then handed them to Ziyan.

Zi Yan was overjoyed and immediately tasted one, and the taste was naturally much stronger than directly gnawing on medicinal herbs.

"How's it taste?"

Xiao Yan asked subconsciously, but after coming back to his senses, he couldn't cry or laugh.

As an alchemist, he always asked the teacher and Miss Wan how the quality and efficacy of the elixir they had refined, but he never thought that one day he would ask others how it tasted......

The corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, should he say that the world is hot and cold.

"Well, it's delicious, it's much better than just eating herbs."

Ziyan smiled: "Good job, if someone bullies you in the future, come to me, I'll help you get ahead, there is no one I dare not provoke in this inner courtyard." ”

Xiao Yan shook his head with a smile, rubbed the head of this cute little girl vigorously, and said with a smile: "Okay, I must look for you!" ”

"Then after I finish eating these in the future, can you still help me refine them? Think of it as a reward for protecting you? ”

Hearing this, the little girl was suddenly overjoyed, and knelt in front of Xiao Yan, her big black eyes full of anticipation.

“……”

Xiao Yan was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but hold his forehead, what was he expecting?

"Okay—you know my name anyway, so come to me when you're done."

Xiao Yan nodded mechanically, Yan Luozhi didn't find it, but he also caught a diner this time, he was really lucky.
