Thousands of dawns pierced through the darkness and once again scattered light into the cave world, and the surface of the lake under the dawn of the cave world was filled with bursts of mist, just like a fairyland on earth.

The light shone through the wooden window, and a man bathed in the early morning sun.

With thin cheeks and sharp facial features, he can be called quite handsome, and his eyes are blazing looking at the workbench in front of him, looking extremely focused and resolute.

This dedicated man is naturally Cheng Miao.

A pleasant voice suddenly came out, breaking the silent air and making Cheng Miao completely come back to his senses.

"Heavy jade lotus petals..."

In the small cabin on the edge of the lake, except for Cheng Miao, there is only Xi Nianjun, and this pleasant voice is naturally made by Xi Nianjun.

Next to Cheng Miao, Xi Nianjun sat cross-legged, in front of her was a round small tripod with four legs and three ears, and the cyan flames were burning silently under the small tripod, what she was doing now was naturally alchemy.

Cheng Miao repeated in a low voice: "Heavy Jade Lotus..."

He hurriedly took out the heavy jade lotus that Xi Nianjun needed from the dazzling variety of medicinal herbs on the workbench.

The word alchemy is simple to say, but in practice, it is extremely complicated, not just throw the herbs into the danding and then burn them violently.

As a result of this, at most, you can only practice a furnace of slag, and you can't practice the pill at all.

In fact, there are many processes in alchemy, some herbs need to be mashed in advance and then mixed with other herbs, and some herbs can only be added last at the stage of becoming a pill.

Even the heat under the Dan furnace is one of the most elaborate steps, and even the fluctuations in the aura in the air must be minimized as much as possible to avoid impact.

It is precisely because of the complexity of the alchemy process that the aura cannot be used, causing fluctuations, which will affect the elixir. Therefore, the process of alchemy often requires an alchemist who makes a decision, as well as a few little medicine children who obey the command.

Cheng Miao's current work is naturally the little medicine boy who handed the herbs that had been prepared and processed in advance to the alchemist.

......

From sunrise to sunset, one herb after another kept disappearing from Cheng Miao's face, and kept throwing into the Dan furnace in front of Xi Nianjun.

As the last herb was put into the Dan furnace, the Dan furnace, which was no more than two feet tall, had already been piled up by one person.

The small Dan furnace is like a Sumeru ring, as if all the herbs will be swallowed by it and turned into nothing.

With the last herb put in, it also announced that this alchemy had come to an end, and the flame under the Dan furnace also weakened, and the small one was like a candle flame.

This time, the process of alchemy took a total of three days and three nights, and it was sleepless all the time, and it was also necessary to maintain a high degree of concentration, even as a monk, he felt very tired.

Xi Nianjun stood up even more, moved his body slightly, didn't care about the image, and stretched his waist greatly.

Xi Nianjun was already wearing light and loose clothes, usually wide clothes, and she couldn't see the shape under the clothes at all, but now the wide clothes stretched as her limbs stretched, showing her original image.

Even through clothing, you can see the attractive curves of the convex and backward curves, and the perfect shape.

Xi Nianjun sat down again, and said in a lively voice: "The last pot of elixir, this time it can completely heal all your previous secret injuries!"

After a pause, she smiled and said, "How should you repay your teacher?"

Cheng Miao was stunned when he heard this: 'How to repay?'

He kept thinking about it, but found that he owed Xi Nianjun more and more, so much that he couldn't change it, but he couldn't do anything for her, and he didn't have anything for her.

Cheng Miao was stunned for a moment, but couldn't find an answer, so he could only say very seriously: "The great favor is not grateful, when the great revenge is avenged, but if the master needs anything, even if it takes my life, I will never complain!"

He said this very seriously, and obviously took it as if it were a promise.

Even if Xi Nianjun is already Cheng Miao's master, Cheng Miao will not think that Xi Nianjun is good to him, that is a matter of course, and every kindness is a debt.

In the mundane world, there is still a famous saying - a teacher for one day, a father for life, this is simply because of the knowledge imparted and the ability to live.

And what about Xi Nianjun, not only imparting knowledge, but also giving Cheng Miao hope and saving his life, how can such a kindness be repaid?

Xi Nianjun's face was also stunned when he heard this, and his smile was a little stiff, as if he remembered something unhappy.

Her lonely expression only appeared for a short time, and she quickly recovered, and continued to smile and said: "Then in the future, you have to be obedient and obedient, and if you are tired of being a teacher, you will come over first to pinch your shoulders for your teacher!"

Cheng Miao trembled when he heard this, and the idea of escaping was not limited to his heart, he stammered and said, "Teacher... Master, it's really tiring, but we're monks, so it's nothing... Or ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Xi Nianjun's eyes froze, and he asked sharply: "If you say that you are tired, you are tired, do you hear it!"

"What did you just say, but whenever there is a need, there will be no complaints?"

Cheng Miao's heart opened his mouth to refute, and he wanted to run away, but he didn't know how to refute, so he could only take stiff steps and walk towards Xi Nianjun step by step.

Stretching out his slightly trembling hands, he landed on Xi Nianjun's shoulders and rubbed them gently.

Through the light and wide gauze clothes, as if touching Xi Nianjun's shoulder, I couldn't help but have my heart beating faster and my heart swaying.

Xi Nianjun's sudden appearance saved Cheng Miao and gave Cheng Miao hope, Cheng Miao's heart was extremely respectful of this, just like some believers, for their own beliefs, that is hope and salvation.

When she came into contact with Xi Nianjun, her beautiful face and seductive posture exuded charm all the time, making Cheng Miao's heart restless.

has an extremely vivid personality, always likes to tease Cheng Miao, likes to watch Cheng Miao embarrassed in front of her, and makes some clowns in front of her, but in front of outsiders, he is especially protective of him.

It is precisely because of various reasons that they are mixed together, and even Cheng Miao himself can't tell the difference, whether it is respect or worship, or admiration?

But no matter what kind of feelings it is, Xi Nianjun is absolutely incomparably lofty in Cheng Miao's heart, just like a resolute believer who treats his own beliefs, which is a sacred and inviolable thing.

Xi Nianjun sat cross-legged on the futon, looked intently at the Dan furnace in front of him, his shoulders shrugged slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing, rub it quickly!"

Cheng Miao fell into the reverie in her heart, and was stunned for a while, her hands were placed on the jade shoulders like this, and she didn't move.

It wasn't until Xi Nianjun made a dissatisfied voice that Cheng Miao came back to his senses and begged for mercy again: "Master... Or or... Forget it!"

Xi Nianjun frowned, and said resentfully: "Okay, if you still say that you have a big revenge, you will listen to me, now you are so disgusted as a teacher, what are you talking about in the future..."

Cheng Miao himself knew that not only did he not have any dislike in his heart, but he was even extremely looking forward to it.

Cheng Miao hurriedly spoke, following her inner thoughts and said, "How can you dislike it? ”

Xi Nianjun smiled slightly, and then said with a straight face: "It's cheap for you!"

Maybe it's also because Xi Nianjun is too good, whether it is cultivation, appearance, or knowledge, she is a top figure, the stronger she is, the weaker Cheng Miao herself is.

Maybe after liking someone, the better her performance, the more prominent she will be, and it will make people feel inferior.

In front of her, it was difficult for Cheng Miao not to feel inferior, and what followed was evasion, he didn't dare to approach, for fear of exposing his evil thoughts, which aroused Xi Nianjun's disgust.

Just as Xi Nianjun said before, Cheng Miao even dared to make a move on Xi Nianjun in the past, but now he doesn't even dare to get close to Xi Nianjun, as if he is facing a terrifying demon beast.

In the past, it was because I didn't care, no matter how high my cultivation was, at most it would kill Cheng Miao, even if I could take his life, I would bite off a piece of meat if I fought to death!

It is precisely because I know more and more that I know Xi Nianjun's excellence, I know my weakness, and I care more and more, so I am afraid of losing, afraid of my ordinary self, and I will no longer be able to get her closeness, and then I have an inferiority complex, and I have the idea of escaping.

Worry because of love, fear because of love, after all, because you care, so you are afraid of losing.

......

Perhaps because the authorities were confused, Cheng Miao couldn't understand the excitement and fear in his heart for a while, and fell into the hundred turns of his mind.

And Xi Nianjun's mind returned to the Dan furnace, and the two fell into silence for a while.

With the extinguishing of the fire under the Ding furnace, it also indicates that this furnace of elixir has been completely refined.

After the refining of the pill was completed, Xi Nianjun didn't have to care about the impact of the aura, and with a wave of his hand, the top cover was lifted.

The countless misty breaths in the Ding furnace evaporated, and the air was filled with the fragrance of the elixir, taking a deep breath, as if the breath was permanent in the chest, making people feel like a fairy and flying through the clouds.

In the mist, there were eight pills of brilliance lying quietly, as if the high temperature of the pill had not disappeared, and the smoke was still rising from the pill.

Xi Nianjun gently twitched the delicate and small nose, frowned and said: "Eight of them are formed, five of them are of average qualifications, slightly flawed, two are perfect, and one is superb..."

Cheng Miao finally came back to his senses, couldn't help the joy in his heart, and praised loudly: "Master's alchemy is really unparalleled in the world..."

Xi Nianjun couldn't be happy, frowned and said: "With so many materials, it should be able to form nine pills, but now it is only eight, and there are so many unformed dregs left." ”

Cheng Miao continued: "Ordinary pill pharmacist alchemy, ten pieces of pill materials, five pieces of molding, can already be called a master, the master's rate of becoming a pill is already rare!"

"What's more, there are nearly half of the perfect products, and it's appalling to say it!"

Xi Nianjun still frowned, pouted slightly, and whispered: "It's all because of you, it affects me! Otherwise, there must be no medicine residue, and everything is formed..."

Cheng Miao looked helpless, he didn't do anything, and he didn't know why, such a cauldron was on his back.
