"There is no need to mention this again. This matter is related to the lives of Shuang'er, so we have to use these methods. But as long as he can save Shuang'er, what do we care about him so much?"

Tu Su Renxiong sighed, turned his head and said:

"Get ready, send me all the things he wants. I'm going to see what he wants to do with so many herbs. ”

"Yes, owner. ”

Beside him, the elder who looked strong said yes and said no more.

Plumes of smoke rose from the inner village of the volcano, which is generally light and does not stick to the fireworks, so it looks very strange in the inner village.

From evening until sunset, the smoke never stopped.

"What's going on? Why didn't this kid come out when he entered the Volcano Village?"

Outside the black iron walls of the Volcano Courtyard, a young man in a black shirt looked at Zhuang Nei with impatience on his face. A kick of the foot kicks a pebble out of the way.

I had lost Yang Ji once a few days ago, but I didn't expect it to look like I was going to lose it again.

Anyone who visits the Volcano Village will leave before the evening. But the boy had been in for several hours, and it was dark, and there was no sign of him coming out.

"How can Senior Brother Zhao explain there, this kid Changqinglou has made Senior Brother Zhao lose a big heel. ”

The young man in the black shirt said with an irritated expression.

Zhao Lenggong is the leader of Tianshui County today, and he has a lot of prestige in the county. But he fell in Changqing Building and lost to Yang Ji, the first in Langya County.

People who aren't in Tianshui don't know what that means.

Zhao Lenggong can lose anyone, even if he is killed. But you can't lose at the hands of people from other counties. ――The first defeat of Tianshui County in the first hand of Langya County, doesn't this mean that the people of Tianshui County are not as good as Langya County?

No matter what Zhao Lenggong himself thinks, from the moment he won the martial arts competition, he was firmly tied to the number one in Tianshui County.

If he is lost in the hands of outsiders. Not only himself, but everyone in Tianshui County was disgraced. In addition to the Changqing Tower incident, this year's martial leader of Langya County has become the target of almost all Tianshui County martial artists.

Not only this year's Wu Xiucai, but also the previous Wu Xiucai, and even the higher ones, have already regarded him as a thorn in their side.

You have to find a place.

The reputation of Tianshui County should not be taken lightly. This doesn't belong to one person, or to everyone else in Tianshui County.

"You say, is this kid aware of it?"

The young man in the black shirt suddenly turned his head and looked at the other person who was squatting on the ground not far away.

"It's hard to say, Zhao Lenggong is going to deal with him, he must know. But if the senior brothers want to teach him a lesson, he may not know. ”

The young man who was crouching on the ground and thinking, his eyes were sagacious, and he didn't look quite like his companion next to him.

"Zhao Lenggong is really confused this time. didn't investigate clearly, so he went to provoke others. This time he lost in Changqing Building, so that the senior brothers who had already gone out had no face. ”

The wise young man squatting on the ground also looked unhappy.

He is also Wu Xiucai from Tianshui County, but this time he was kicked over to do the work of stalking and tracking, which is quite faceless. But think about the people in the back are different.

Who called them the senior brothers of the last session of Tianshui County?

The martial arts examination is held every three years, and the ranking of the martial arts examination is all based on playing. These senior brothers are all Wu Xiucai from the previous session, and some are even martial artists.

Zhao Lenggong is now thinking about moving to the county, where Wu Xiucai was the first in the last session, and that one is the favorite to win the championship this year. and all the counties obeyed him. In terms of prestige, it is much more powerful than Zhao Lenggong.

But even Zhao Lenggong probably didn't know that he didn't do a good job this time. Even those senior brothers above were shocked. You know, those are already martial artists!

The matter of Changqing Lou made them very faceless in the same move. If it weren't for his identity, Wu Juren would have been disgraceful to deal with Wu Xiucai, and would have intervened a long time ago.

Now he is waiting for Zhao Lenggong to find face by himself, so he didn't intervene. But even so, it has already intervened. If Zhao Lenggong doesn't handle this matter well. forced the senior brothers to dispatch, I'm afraid Zhao Lenggong won't be able to get any benefits.

- Big brother has never been a soft-hearted person!

Even these current Wu Xiucai, I'm afraid they will also be affected.

"Hey, it's all about Senior Brother Zhao!"

The young man in the black shirt complained with a face.

Taiyuan Prefecture is the land of right and wrong, the land of power. There are too many masters in Tianshui County. These martial artists of this year are actually only able to run errands.

"Alright. This matter is no wonder Senior Brother Zhao. ”

When the young man in the black shirt was almost out of his mouth, the young man who was squatting on the ground with a wise eye slowly spoke:

"Langya County is really too evil this year, how many counties are in Taiyuan Continent, and when will they have their share in the ranking. This year, there was actually a martial arts sect, and he also defeated the disciples of Baitou Mountain, who could have imagined this. ”

Senior Brother Zhao was also not convinced, and wanted to take a look. Beat their limelight and crush them. Where did I expect to miss and kick the iron plate. ”

The wise-eyed young man shook his head as he spoke.

What a character Zhao Lenggong is, he is also a man of his word in Tianshui County. But this defeat alarmed the senior brothers above, and their prestige was immediately frustrated, and they were in an extremely disadvantageous position.

How can you not deal with this matter, in the future, Zhao Lenggong may be the first isolated martial leader in Tianshui County!

"Let's go!"

Drawing a circle on the ground with a straw stalk and throwing it casually, the wise-eyed young man immediately stood up:

"If you don't come out so late, you can't get out. That is not a simple lord, the disciples of the Ouyang family have all hooked up with him. And I don't think he cares much about us at all these days, so he shouldn't have deliberately avoided us. - Let's go back!"

"This, what should I do with Senior Brother?"

The black-shirted young man hesitated.

"What should I do? Tell the truth, otherwise what else can I do?"

The wise-eyed young man said, flicked his sleeves, and the two disappeared into the night one after the other.

......

In the night, lurking outside the black iron walls of the Earth Volcano Village were far more than just these two people from Tianshui County.

In a parked carriage, several pairs of eyes were secretly looking through the window at the gate of the Volcanic Village. These eyes are bright. It stands out even in the dark.

"This kid...... Why haven't you come out yet?"

A thin man who looked a little clever said, lying on the window, his eyes were uncertain. If Luo Shanghao was here, he would recognize it at a glance, these people were all from General Tiele's mansion.

He wouldn't mind giving them a sword.

"It's weird!"

Another general of General Tiele said, "This Yang Ji can't be planning something, right?"

"It doesn't matter what it's planning. You have to watch it carefully. The third prince has already mobilized the strongest iron guards in the mansion from Luoyang Mountain. Until the Iron Guard returns, we must not let this kid escape our sight. ”

Looking at the clever thin man who muttered for a moment, he immediately noticed:

"You're here to watch. Whether he spends the night in the Volcano Village or not, keep an eye on me. He must not be let go. -- I'll go back to the house now, and immediately report the situation here to the third son. ”

The thin man pushed open the door with a bang, flipped out of the carriage, flew close to the ground, rose and fell a few times, and quickly disappeared into the night.

There are far more people who go back to report the news, far and near in the dark night. Many, many figures disappeared. These people may have seen it, exchanged glances with each other, and no one said anything, just like two parallel lines, each doing its own thing, not intersecting with each other.

......

"Whew!"

Thick smoke billowed out, spewed together with sparks, turned into smoke and curled up from the straight chimney above the alchemy room. Disappeared without a trace.

In the alchemy room, Yang Ji was so tired that he was sweating profusely.

Much later. Looking at the almost empty Dan furnace, Yang Ji smiled bitterly and failed again.

Although we already know the general steps, there are many difficulties in the actual alchemy, and there are many factors involved. It's far from being as simple as it seems on paper.

And that's the practical part.

The process of extracting essence is actually to put all kinds of materials into the Dan furnace to burn, burning away the dross, leaving the essence. This is clearly written and simple. You can understand it at a glance.

But the process of extracting cyanine actually involves temperature. The temperature was too high, and the essence was burned, and it drifted out of the furnace with the high temperature and smoke and dust, leaving nothing behind, just like Yang Ji.

And the temperature is too low, leaving a large number of impurities, and even a large amount of raw materials that have not been burned. Such a thing cannot be used.

Think about what it looks like to eat a lot of grass in the elixir?

This is the difference between theory and practice.

Cuijing must master the fire, different materials have different temperatures, this can't be written in the Dan book, you can only rely on your own practice to comprehend.

Yang Ji found that Dan Dao was actually far from being as simple as he imagined.

"No wonder there are so few Dan masters, the alchemy failure rate is high, and it is easy to fry the furnace. Moreover, there are many small doorways involved in actual operation, and you must operate them yourself to learn. In terms of difficulty, I'm afraid it's really not under the martial arts. ”

Yang Ji said secretly in his heart.

Dan Dao is not easy, at least not as easy as he imagined when he first started. Fortunately, the "Pure Demon Pill" is only an ordinary level elixir, and it is not a very advanced elixir.

Otherwise, Yang Ji really didn't dare to rashly agree to Tu Su Renxiong's deal.

"I had no choice but to start all over again. ”

Yang Ji muttered to himself, although he failed, he was still high-spirited.

Cui Jing's simplest first step actually failed, which Yang Ji hadn't expected before. And the most important thing in this first step is not to put the herbs, but the temperature of the flame, which Yang Ji did not expect when he read the "Book of Dan".

But fortunately, there is nothing lacking in the alchemy room, that is, there are many medicinal materials. With the big tree of the Earth Volcano Village at his back, and with the support of their huge resources, Yang Ji can afford to fail.

It was not a big deal to consume some materials, Yang Ji picked up a handful of medicinal materials and put them back in the Dan furnace.

"Perhaps, I should find another Dan furnace. ”

Yang Ji's expression was wise, and the light in his eyes flashed. (To be continued......)
