Hu Shijie ran back to Lingxiao Hall, just in time to see the master walking out of the hall with a handsome and delicate young man, and hurried forward to salute: "I have seen the master."

"It's just in time for you to come back. This is your little junior brother. You just came to the Lingxiao Pavilion, you as a senior brother should take care of it." The elder smiled and introduced to the two: "Xiao Lang, this is your second senior brother Hu Shijie. A third-level pharmacist, you can ask him if you don’t understand anything about refining medicine in the future. Your senior brother has gone out to search for medicinal materials, and it will take a few days before you can come back.”

Seeing the young apprentice's respectful response, the Great Elder nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at the second apprentice: "What are you doing all day in such a hurry? What about the Huiqi Pill I asked you to refine earlier?"

Huiyuan Dan is a fourth-level elixir, and it is the easiest to refine among the intermediate elixir.A elixir for quick recovery of stamina.

Hu Shijie lowered his head and replied softly: "It hasn't been refined yet." Thinking of He Shuwei's sinister eyes, he looked up at the gentle junior brother again, gritted his teeth and said, "Master, it's because I've been slack these days. I will go to retreat to refine medicine, and I will never leave the closed door if I do not refine the return qi pill." It is only a short time to hide for a while, but I hope that when he leaves the closed door, the matter between them has been resolved.

But judging from the younger brother's appearance, he is not at all like the despicable person that He Shuwei said he wanted to seize the family property.That sinister look flashed in his mind again, and Hu Shijie felt that the person He Shuwei was talking about was more like himself.

The fact that Lu Ruilang was an illegitimate child had been circulated among his disciples for two days, but no one mentioned it again.To be honest, illegitimate children are not uncommon in big families.Especially the four families of Wen, He, Yue, and Tan, none of them had more than ten or twenty illegitimate children, and they were ashamed to call themselves the four major families.

Lu Ruilang didn't care about the rumors outside. As the great elder's direct disciple, he could enter and exit the Zangshu Pavilion at will.These days, he was spending time in the library, and with the cheating device of Tianshen No. [-], he made a copy of all the prescriptions and pharmacopoeia.

On the night of the sixth day, Pei Shuo, who couldn't bear it any longer, went to Zangshu Pavilion in person and arrested him.

"If I don't look for you, you won't know how to come back, right?" Pei Shuo held him in his arms, really wanting to spank his ass, but the hand that fell turned into a gentle caress.

Lu Ruilang quickly grabbed his hand: "Why do you touch your hands as soon as you meet, pervert!"

"You still have the nerve to talk about me, tell me, how many days have you been away?" Pei Shuo carried him all the way into the inner room.

"It's not very long, less than a week..." Lu Ruilang's voice came from the bed curtain, and soon fell silent again.

A year later, Lu Ruilang had already refined all the low-level and intermediate-level elixirs in Zangshuge's alchemy.The Great Elder was pleased with his talent in refining medicine, but also pleased with his calmness of mind.As early as half a year ago, he had already refined the top-grade intermediate-level elixir, but he insisted on being patient and refined all the elixir recipes.

Alchemy is Lu Ruilang's interest, especially refining alchemy recipes that he has never seen before.Being promoted to senior pharmacist in three months is already very eye-catching. If it goes up further, it will inevitably arouse suspicion from others.Sometimes, you need to stop and give others a time to buffer and adapt.

The Great Elder poured out a Huiqi Pill, the color was dull and dull, he sniffed it close to his nose, and immediately took it away with a frown.He put the medicine bottle on the table heavily, looked at the second apprentice who was standing in front of him with his head bowed and shivering, and he swallowed the words he wanted to curse: "A pharmacist most taboos impetuosity. Jie, once your mind is unstable, it will be difficult to make any progress in refining medicine."

Hu Shijie closed his eyes, he knew exactly what his problem was, those sinister eyes had become his inner demon, whenever he wanted to concentrate on refining medicine, those eyes would appear in his mind , like a demon hiding in the dark, spying on him all the time.

"Next month will be the opening day of Xuantian Secret Realm. As in previous years, there will be a quota selection contest in advance, and the time will be set in half a month. You go back and prepare well." Even though he said so, the Great Elder was very serious about this apprentice. Hope is gone.

Hu Shijie walked down the mountain with a depressed expression. He hadn't been home for a year. His mother asked someone to bring several messages, and he didn't know if something happened at home.

Suddenly his arm was grabbed by someone, and before he could react, he was pulled into a room. "Your boy is finally willing to come out. I thought you died in the High Heaven Pavilion." The sinister voice made Hu Shijie tremble.

There were three people sitting in the room, and the one in the middle was He Shuwei who had given him nightmares for a year.The fear from his heart made him stagger back.

"What are you afraid of? Will I eat you? Come here, there is something I need you to do." He Shuwei took out a porcelain bottle from his arms: "On the day of the selection, sprinkle this on that bastard's medicine."

Hu Shijie looked at the porcelain vase as if he was looking at a scourge, and moved his feet back two steps.

He Shuwei stood up impatiently, stuffed the porcelain bottle into his arms, and then patted his head: "Don't let me down, otherwise, you know the consequences."

"Look at his bastard, he won't run away, right?" Another man asked worriedly after Hu Shijie left.

He Shuwei waved his hand confidently: "He dare not."

The porcelain vase on his chest was as hot as a soldering iron. Hu Shijie couldn't help trembling, lowered his head, staggered, and ran home stumbling.

"Xiaojie, why didn't you go home this year? The young master of the He family came to look for you several times and said that he couldn't find you in the Tiandan Pavilion, but I worried you so much." Mrs. Hu dragged her son up and down After looking at it again, he said with pity on his face: "Why did you lose so much weight? Didn't you eat it? Is it because the food on the mountain is not to your liking, or I'll send someone to deliver it to you."

"Mom, I'm fine. I've been retreating and refining medicine for a year. I've brought so many messages. Is something wrong at home?" Hu Shijie pulled his mother's hand off his body.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that Young Master He came to you and said he had something important to see you. And there is your cousin Pianpian, who married into the He family last month. Pianpian grew up with you, and originally wanted to ask you to come back for a drink A glass of wedding wine."

"Pianpian married into the He family? Isn't she engaged to the son of the Luo family in the west of the city?" Hu Shijie was so startled that his hand slipped and he almost knocked over the teacup.

"Oh, this is all fate. Mr. Luo had a strange illness half a year ago, so he just went away. Pianpian is also pitiful, she became a widow before she got married. Fortunately, the eldest young master of the second room of the He family wants to continue. The two met, and that's it." Mrs. Hu has no daughter, and she has long regarded the niece of her mother's family who grew up beside her as her own.

Hu Shijie thought back to the eldest young master of the second room of the He family, his expression changed, it was He Shuhui who spent all day among women, clinging to the eldest room, and obeying He Shuwei's words.

"The second householder of the He family does not have his own family business, and lives entirely on the eldest household, and He Shuhui eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles in everything..."

Mrs. Hu patted his arm and scolded: "What are you talking about? Although the second room has no independent property, they haven't separated yet? It's the same for him to help everyone take care of the business. We will separate in the future , there will be no loss of their second room."

Hu Shijie shook his head in disapproval, his mother didn't understand He Shuwei and his father's behavior, separated?That is absolutely impossible.The second wife of the He family will always be able to live with the eldest, and will always be a dog that obeys the master's orders.

"Where's dad?" Mother couldn't see clearly, and there was no reason why father couldn't see what kind of people He Shuwei and his son were.

"Your father is busy. He just negotiated a business with the He family. He has been running outside these days and has no time to return home." The Hu family started with a cloth shop. There are weaving workshops and garment workshops.

"Ever since you entered the Tiandan Pavilion, your father wanted to transfer business to the monks to help you save more spirit stones. A few days ago, the He family suddenly agreed to cooperate with your father to provide monster furs for our clothing workshop. "Madam Hu doesn't know much about business matters.

Hu Shijie felt chills in his heart. He Shuwei wanted to control the Hu family and make the Hu family his lackeys.

Touching the porcelain bottle on his chest, Hu Shijie scratched his hair irritably: "Mother, if there is nothing else, I will go back first. The task ordered by the master has not been completed yet."

Mrs. Hu saw that her son was about to leave just after returning home, her face was full of reluctance: "Let's go after eating, there is no rush."

Hu Shijie waved his hand, turned around and left.He was afraid that if he didn't leave again, he wouldn't be able to help telling the He family's conspiracy, which would make his parents worry instead.

"Shijie, didn't you go home? Why did you come back so soon?" Senior Brother Tan Xuze stopped him in surprise.

"There's nothing to do at home, so I'm back." Hu Shijie forced a smile.

Tan Xuze frowned, and the expression on the second junior brother's face was very strange: "Is there really nothing wrong at home? You haven't been home for a year, why don't you stay at home for a few more days?" If he remembered correctly, Mrs. Hu only had one son like him.

"Hey, second senior brother is back?" Lu Ruilang just came from Pei Shuo's place.

Hearing his junior brother's voice, Hu Shijie instinctively took two steps back.Looking at the clear and bright eyes of the little junior brother, I suddenly felt that a corner of my dark heart was illuminated.

"For the qualifying competition in half a month, what kind of medicine do you want to refine?" Lu Ruilang pretended not to notice the strangeness of the second senior brother, walked up to the two of them, and took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve: "This is my newly refined medicine." Tianji Dan."

"You made Tianji Pill? Oh my god, Xiao Lang, you are too good." Tan Xuze took the porcelain bottle and opened it, poured out a pill, then his eyes widened in surprise, and he yelled strangely: "Ah, ah, this is the ultimate Tianji pill! There are golden patterns on it, I have seen it from the master."
