An alchemy furnace fell from the sky
Chapter 184 An unexpected surprise
Thinking that Qingli had helpers, Xu Fu felt that one was bigger than the other. The day he was stabbed by Qingli with the Xuanyin thorn was still vivid in his mind. The strong body that he was proud of was like paper in front of the Xuanyin thorn. As if, how not to make him afraid, God knows if she will bring out other magic weapons next time she meets her.
Thinking of this, Xu Fu felt that the Shi Mansion suddenly became dangerous, and green pears became everywhere, which made people feel chills down their backs. He didn't want to stay any longer.
Just as Xu Fu was about to get up, he suddenly heard a sound on the toilet door, and then there were footsteps.
"It stinks! Which grandson did it!" One person complained as soon as he entered the toilet.
Xu Fu's face heated up when he heard this. He was just thinking about something and didn't pay much attention to it. Now when someone mentioned it, he realized that it was indeed smelly. He quickly held his breath and was too embarrassed to stand up.
"There's no toilet that doesn't stink. Even if it's a fairy in the sky, I don't believe she can pull out the scented toilet." Another person didn't care about this.
"Hey! Did you hear that? The master is going to hold a competition to recruit a bride."
"Ah? Are you planning to betroth the eldest lady to her? How can I bear this?"
"So what if you can't bear to leave? Didn't you listen to what the older generation said? Women are not allowed to stay in college!"
"Then you have to find someone who is well-matched! What if you summon a son-in-law who acts like a monster? Wouldn't that make people laugh out loud?"
"Have you ever seen the temper of our eldest lady? As for those young masters, there must be at least twenty people who came to propose marriage, right? In the end, they were beaten until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and they left crying. Who dares to propose marriage now? ?”
"That's right, our eldest lady is not even looked down upon by the four major spiritual academies. Those people who come to propose marriage without any ability are really asking for trouble!"
"I heard that the dowry is an eighth-grade elixir. I don't know what it does. Could it be that eating it can make you an immortal?"
"My master has already taken it if he can become an immortal. It must be some kind of rare and powerful tonic. If it were me, I would have a big box of gold so that I don't have to worry about it for the rest of my life!"
"You are just short-sighted. If I want a big house and open the largest restaurant in the world, then the money will flow in like running water, and I can't even count it..."
……
The two of them boasted for a while before leaving the toilet.
After the two left, Xu Fu stood up with a look of hesitation on his face. He was just about to get out of this muddy water, but when he heard the two men talking about competing for a bride, he began to hesitate again. It's not that he wants to marry the eldest lady of the Shi family, it's just that the eighth-grade elixir is really unbearable.
What kind of eighth-grade elixir is it?
Xu Fu had never seen the eighth-grade elixir before, and had only read about a few from Li Danxin's collection of books. He could only imagine the mystery of the eighth-grade elixir through those few words. For an alchemist, this was really incredible. The temptation is irresistible, even just to take a look!
But he thought that he had been delayed at Shi's house for two days, and he still had no clues about Tu Xing Ling Bao. If he continued like this, he didn't know how long it would take.
Xu Fu struggled to take out a small pocket from his clothes, and then took out the "black wood piece" that he had kept close to his body. He was surprised to find that these four spiritual treasures were all glowing slightly.
Xu Fu was extremely surprised when he saw this. He had always carried these four spiritual treasures with him, but he had never taken them out to look at since he entered the Shifu. Even when he was taking a bath, he was worried about being discovered by others, so he wrapped them tightly. Real. Unexpectedly, these four spiritual treasures actually sensed it, indicating that this earthly spiritual treasure was nearby!
Xu Fu walked around in the toilet and found that the faint light did not get stronger at all, so he knew that the Earth Elemental Treasure was not here. However, Xu Fu did not feel lost. It was an unexpected surprise to find the general location of the Earth Element Treasure. , this has saved him a lot of time, how dare he ask for too much.
"It seems that the fate with the Shi family is really deep!" Xu Fu secretly sighed in his heart. The unhappiness in his heart had long been wiped away. He put the Lingbao in his arms and strode out.
After feeling relieved, Xu Fu suddenly became optimistic, thinking that only Qingli recognized him in this huge Shifu, and it seemed that it would not be difficult to avoid her. The most important thing at the moment is to find the location of the Earth Spirit Treasure as soon as possible, and then wait for an opportunity to "take it away".
Xu Fu was in a good mood at this time. Taking advantage of the lack of people at noon, he walked around the courtyard and glanced at his chest from time to time.
After walking for a long time, I found that the brilliance of this Lingbao had not changed much.
"How is this going?"
Xu Fu was secretly surprised. Seeing that there were more people in the courtyard, Xu Fu had to go back to the kitchen for the time being and prepare to explore other places in the evening.
Thinking of Shi Xiu, who coveted his "beauty", Xu Fu felt a chill in his heart. Since he wanted to stay in Shi Mansion, he couldn't fall out with the second housekeeper at this time. After all, with him supporting him, it would be much easier to act in the courtyard. But Xu Fu is even more unwilling to betray his "innocence", even for the sake of the Earthly Spiritual Treasure!
Xu Fu suddenly thought of something and had a plan in mind.
When Xu Fu came to the back kitchen, there were not many people in the back kitchen. There were only a few older women washing dishes and chopsticks there. Compared with the previous bustling scene, it looked a little deserted.
There were two people left beside the kitchen stove to guard the kitchen utensils. When they saw Xu Fu, they hurriedly came to greet him.
Xu Fu walked around between the kitchen stove and the chopping board on the pretext of "just wandering around". Looking at the vegetable leaves scattered on the ground, Xu Fu picked up one and waved it in front of the two of them.
The two people understood and quickly found tools to clean up.
Only then did Xu Fu leave with "satisfaction".
Walking to a secluded place, Xu Fu broke off a small section of the vegetable leaf in his hand, and then used the section to lightly smear it on his face. When he felt that there was no more juice, he broke off another section.
Xu Fu took small sunflower seeds, which is a very common condiment that can remove the fishy smell and relieve greasiness. Xu Fu remembered that when he was a child, he accidentally fell into a field of sunflower seeds. When he returned home, his face was covered with red spots. It took several days to disappear. However, if he ate the cooked sunflower seeds, it would be nothing. nothing. Later, Xu Fu still didn't believe in the evil and rubbed some sunflower seeds on his face again. The result was red spots again, and he calmed down.
Although this incident happened a long time ago, Xu Fu remembered it very clearly. He had tasted the taste of sunflower seeds when he was trying out the dishes. He went to the kitchen to look for it and found it.
After less than one stick of incense, Xu Fu's face was covered with red spots and "changed beyond recognition". Xu Fu even took a basin of water and took a photo, and was very satisfied with the red spots.
Shi Zhu almost cried when he saw Xu Fu suddenly become like this. He had been waiting for him for a long time, but he didn't expect that something happened even while he was dozing off!
Shi Zhu was about to cry for Xu Fu's comfort. If the second housekeeper was blamed, then his work as a housekeeper would be over. Recalling that he had humbled himself over the years and endured so many grievances, he managed to survive until today. However, because of a sudden Negligence, it was ruined in vain! Thinking of the easy money, the pretty maid, and the beloved tea that were about to say goodbye to him, Shi Zhu finally couldn't hold it back and burst into tears, heartbreakingly so.
Xu Fu didn't expect Shi Zhu to be so fragile, so he comforted him for a while, and finally agreed to speak for him in front of the second housekeeper, and then he calmed down.
Seeing Shi Zhu's reaction, Xu Fu also felt that walking around Shi Mansion was a bit eye-catching, so he found a face towel in the kitchen to cover his face. This was originally worn by the chef to prevent hot oil from splashing on his face when cooking, but Xu Fu found that this thing was just right for him at this time, so that he would not have to worry even if he ran into Qingli.
After staying in the kitchen until sunset, Shi Xiu was finally found. He had been busy with the banquet all day, and it was only then that he had time to come over and take a look.
Seeing Xu Fu's masked appearance, Shi Xiu was just stunned for a moment at first. After seeing the red spots on Xu Fu's face, Shi Xiu was so frightened that she took a few steps back and almost fell down. She quickly took Xu Fu to find a doctor in Shifu. After receiving diagnosis and treatment, I was finally relieved when the doctor said it was nothing serious.
Seeing Xu Fu's appearance, Shi Xiu lost interest. Worried that he would be squeezed out by other servants again, he simply found him an empty old guest room in a remote place and let him live in it first until he was well enough.
Xu Fu was overjoyed. This was exactly what he wanted. There was no one around, so it was easier to do things.
After waiting in the room until midnight, Xu Fu lay behind the door and listened carefully. After making sure that no one was nearby, he quietly came out of the room.
Xu Fu's steps were light, and he silently remembered the road in his heart. He walked quickly towards the place in Shifu that he had not been to during the day. Along the way, he still checked the spiritual treasure in his arms from time to time.
When Xu Fu walked to an open space, he suddenly thought and froze suddenly. He slowly turned his head and saw a pair of bright eyes looking at him.
At this time, the moon poked its head out from the clouds, and Xu Fu recognized the owner of these bright eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.
The eldest lady of the Shi family, Shi Jiu'an.
Shi Jiu'an hugged his legs and sat on the chair without moving, staring at Xu Fu with a calm expression. If he hadn't opened his eyes, Xu Fu would probably have thought he was a stone statue.
Xu Fu was stunned on the spot, unable to figure out what the young lady was thinking, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a moment.
"I've met the eldest lady."
After a few breaths of stalemate, Xu Fu thought that the eldest lady had intended to excuse himself before. She probably didn't have the kind of unreasonable temper. It was not an option to stay like this. In the end, Xu Fu spoke first.
"What are you doing here?" Shi Jiu'an said in a very calm tone.
"I... looking for the toilet." Xu Fu hurriedly made up a reason.
"lie."
"Actually, I couldn't sleep, so I was just walking around. I don't know why I ended up here. I accidentally disturbed the eldest lady. I hope the eldest lady will atone for her sins." Xu Fu immediately changed his mind and said.
"I can't sleep either, come over and sit." Shi Jiuan breathed a long sigh of relief and said lightly.
"Don't dare, don't dare, I'll quit now!"
Xu Fu knew from the tone of her voice that she must be unhappy. It would be a big loss if she made a mistake and used it to vent her anger. Xu Fu was about to retreat as he spoke.
"I asked you to come and sit down!" Shi Jiu'an's tone became a little more serious, and his eyes became sharp, "I am also the eldest lady of the Shi Mansion after all. Don't you even listen to me?"
Xu Fu secretly complained in his heart. It seemed that it would be difficult to escape for a while. Normally, he would not mind chatting with this eldest lady, but now that he had clues about the Earthly Spiritual Treasure, how could he still do it? Are you interested in doing something else? However, thinking of Shi Jiu'an's status in Shi Mansion, Xu Fu really didn't dare to leave, so he could only walk to an empty chair and sit down.
"Why are you covering your face?" Shi Jiu'an suddenly asked when Xu Fu approached.
"I have some red spots." Xu Fu replied casually.
"Have you seen a doctor?"
"I looked at it and said it's nothing serious. It will be fine in a few days."
After hearing what Xu Fu said, Shi Jiu'an stopped talking and just hugged his legs and looked up at the moon.
"Miss, are you worried about the martial arts competition?" Xu Fu was impatient. He really didn't have the time to sit and admire the moon. Waiting like this was not an option, so Xu Fu took the initiative to ask.
"My family has been very good to me since I was a child. It is not an exaggeration to say that I am obedient. I don't have to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting if I don't want to. I don't have to go to the four major spiritual academies if I don't want to. I don't want to marry those The self-righteous young masters from aristocratic families kicked them out of the house and no one dared to say a harsh word. Until that woman came in, my father changed..."
Shi Jiu'an's resentment, which he had been accumulating for an unknown amount of time, seemed to have suddenly found an outlet. The more he spoke, the more energetic he became. In the end, he jumped down from the chair, gesticulating while accusing his father, one after another. Every trivial matter came out of her mouth without thinking, and unknowingly she said it in one breath for the duration of a stick of incense.
Xu Fu was a little impatient at first and was unsteady in his chair. After listening for a while, he slowly calmed down. Those trivial matters between father and daughter made him feel envious.
By the end, Xu Fu could see tears flashing in Shi Jiu'an's eyes.
The fall of a tear made Shi Jiurang suddenly realize her gaffe. She turned around in a hurry and wiped it twice randomly, as if she didn't want people to see such a weak side of her.
"The book says that family ties in wealthy families are weak, and it's absolutely true. Sometimes I really envy you. Although you are busy every day, you can enjoy the purest feelings between people."
Shi Jiu'an did not turn around, turned his back to Xu Fu and sighed. The last few words sounded like an elder who had gone through many vicissitudes of life, trying to tell his descendants about his life experience.
Shi Jiu'an calmed down his emotions, and after venting just now, he felt a lot more happy. Only then did she realize that she seemed to be talking too much to this servant, and it was the servant who was listening to her complaints all the time, without giving her a chance to speak at all.
Thinking of this, Shi Jiu'an turned around, looked at Xu Fu who was covering his face, and asked softly.
"Your Majesty, you live in Shijia Town? Are you still strong?"
