The Return of the Alchemist [Rebirth]

He Zizheng was silent, but Lou Dragonfly was obviously unwilling to let him go, a pair of sharp eyes glanced at He Zizheng coldly: "It's nothing more than some evil things."

After all, she seemed not even interested in looking at He Zizheng, turned to Yining and said, "Brother Yi, I know you are kind, but sometimes, kindness..."

Lou Qingting's words were obviously not finished yet, but the hearts of the three present were clear. What she said was just to remind Yining to be on guard against He Zizheng.Yining nodded and smiled, but did not answer, but He Zizheng's face was a little gray, which made his face look haggard, and the hypocrisy and agility of the past seemed to disappear from his face in an instant. His appearance made Yi Ning became more curious about his relationship with Lou Qingting.

Time passed slowly, and Yining didn't have the intention of being cowardly with He Zizheng, so he beckoned Yue Zhongyuan to come up, Ren Xiaobaihu squatted on his shoulders, and then bid farewell to He Zizhenglou and Dragonfly.He Zizheng looked lost, as if he hadn't noticed Yining's departure at all. Lou Qingfly stared at his leaving back, his eyes flickered slightly, and the light was dim.

It was already afternoon when I returned to my residence, and the sun was still a little warm, shining on my body with a slight warmth.Dong Ming didn't know where he went, Yu Shuze was cultivating hard in the secret room, Yining thought for a while, then took out the medicine book that had been discarded for a long time, and read it carefully page by page.The light and shadow of the setting sun hit his cheeks, making his complexion flushed red, and the profile of his face when he was reading a book was really too beautiful, with long eyelashes, high nose, and that smooth and flawless face... ...The way he calmed down fascinates Yue Zhongyuan the most.

The white fox stared at the quiet young man with its green eyes for a long time, not daring to disturb him as mischievously as usual, instead lying quietly on the side, with its front legs resting on Yining's calf, and its paws brushing against the A long white gown.When the light and shadow shine down, time seems to stand still, quiet and beautiful.

Dong Ming came to find Yining on business, but seeing this scene, he couldn't help but slow down.He thought to himself, what he said were just a few jokes, it's better not to disturb Yining!

After reading the book, Yining ate some snacks, went to the bathtub for a long time, and then stepped out.When he thought of Yue Zhongyuan, he realized that the fox who had been by his side had disappeared at some point, and Yue Zhongyuan hadn't returned until late at night.

Does this count as leaving without saying goodbye?Yi Ning quietly coiled the hawthorn fruit between her fingers, which was specially picked by that guy to coax him... Who knows that the man has gone to nowhere before eating the fruit.

Yining didn't want to admit it, but when he found Yue Zhongyuan had left, he felt a emptiness in his heart, although he tried his best to conceal it...but there was always a kind of loneliness that couldn't be filled in his heart, as if something had been emptied.So, did Yue Zhongyuan have such a great influence on him without knowing it?He raised the corners of his lips slightly, that idiot was really selfish and domineering, every time he suddenly intervened in his life so forcefully, but when he left, he was so silent.

"Yining!"

Yining raised his head and saw Dong Ming who was waving and smiling at him in the distance.The three of them are very close now, and they can see each other within two steps.Seeing the sadness on Yining's face, and thinking of the rumors at the door, Dong Ming couldn't help feeling a little worried: "Yining, are you okay?"

Yining shook his head: "What will happen to me? But you, what are you doing here today?"

When Yining shook his head, Dong Ming was observing Yining.Because she didn't go out and was too lazy to tidy up, Yining only wore a loose robe, and her hair was not combed, just draped over her back casually. Although she was not in a good mood, she was not depressed... Looking at Yining's appearance, Dong Ming understood that Yining probably hadn't heard the rumors in the door.

Dong Ming was a little annoyed in his heart. When he was young, he joined Tianshui Pavilion because of its reputation. Now that time has passed, Tianshui Pavilion has become more and more unreliable.Among other things, even though the three of them did not intend to be the disciples who picked the medicine, it was decided by the Supreme Elder anyway, so how could it be changed day and night?

Dong Ming knows that he is not a smart person, but he also understands a truth, there is no rule without rules, even if the Supreme Elder's order is wrong, as a disciple, he should fulfill it meticulously.It's fine to kick him out of the list of disciples picking medicines, he is considered to be lacking in talent and morality, but it was agreed to be Yining, why did someone squeeze Yining out again?

Hearing the news, Dong Ming became a little angry. He still didn't believe it yesterday, and only listened to what those people said as a joke... But today, the joke turned out to be true. The brother gave it to the top.

Dong Ming complained for a long time, Yi Ning listened quietly and echoed a few words from time to time, but his expression was extremely calm, showing no sign of irritation.Dong Ming said for a long time that he drank a pot of clear tea. Seeing Yining like this, he was a little angry and patted the table: "I really don't worry about the emperor and the eunuchs. You are not in a hurry when you are pushed away. I am an outsider. , what am I doing?"

Yining smiled apologetically, "Don't be angry, I asked Senior Brother He Zizheng to help me out."

"What?!" Dong Ming's voice suddenly raised an octave, but worried that others would hear it, he lowered it again, "Why? Do you know what the sect says about you and us now? The master is incompetent, and the disciples are also incompetent." Can't get on the stage. Others also know about the old affair between our master and the Supreme Elder. Before we endured it, they stepped on it hard. When we rose up, they were jealous and hated... Now, it's back to the original look."

It was an angry roar before, but now it is getting softer and softer, and Yining doesn't know how to deal with it, so he can only comfort him: "It's my fault."

Dong Ming opened his mouth, and finally spit out a sentence: "Oh, forget it, if you really go, I will be more worried. In fact, it is because Shu Ze and I are too useless. When we are senior brothers, we have to take the lead in everything."

It's rare for Dong Ming to look listless. Seeing him like this, Yining could only sigh softly: "Our brothers and sisters are one body, so there's nothing useful or useless. In fact, I did it on purpose this time, as you know. Of course, others would be happy if they got the chance to pick up the medicine boy, but the Heart Melting Pill is not very attractive to me. If I want the Heart Melting Pill, I can refine it by myself after I get all the ingredients together. Why bother? You have to face the Supreme Elder all day long."

Dong Ming could only nod his head. In fact, he didn't want Yining to be the boy who picked up medicine, but he just felt angry when he heard the rumors in the door.In his heart, his junior brother is the best, only he has to give up, and no one else can squeeze him out. Now that he heard Yining's explanation, he felt better.

"Let's go." Dong Ming thought about it and felt relieved, "By the way, Yining, did you know that among the two drug pickers, except for Senior Brother Qu who took your spot, The other one turned out to be Senior Brother He, thanks to the nice words he said that day, who would have thought that it would be..."

Yining smiled slightly: "With such benefits, who wouldn't be tempted? Our Senior Brother He is not a fairy after all, he is just a mortal."

Dong Ming waved his hand, pulled a chair and sat next to Yining: "By the way, Yining, it's not all for this matter that I came here today. I went out a few days ago and got a few treasures , look at what this is..."

Yining looked at his hand, and there was a jade box lying in his hand. In the jade box, a half-frozen and half-melted bead lay quietly in it. The part that has been melted still has a sense of smoothness of lines, flowing, and it is just a treasure at first glance.

Yining exclaimed: "Cinnabar tears."

Cinnabar tears are a rare treasure passed down in ancient times, Yining always thought that it was just a legend, but today, she actually saw the real thing of cinnabar tears.In the treasure appraisal book that he likes to read on weekdays, there are only a few superficial descriptions of cinnabar tears, but there is no picture of the real thing. To identify whether it is cinnabar tears or not, it can only be guessed.And the reason why Yining recognized it as cinnabar tears at the first sight, besides the solidification and melting of this baby, but it is not abrupt but has a sense of harmony, is also because the fire and wood elements in his body jumped up in an instant. , seems to be very thirsty for cinnabar tears.

Since his rebirth, he has acquired quite a few treasures, but the only thing that can really make the two attributes of wood and fire fluctuate so strongly is cinnabar tears.

According to ancient legends, cinnabar tears are formed by the tears of a female fairy trapped by love, in which the blood is full and the immortal energy is surging, and the two cannot be combined.But alchemists all know that cinnabar tears are the spiritual treasures of heaven and earth, which are 10-year-old stalactites that formed a semi-melted and semi-solid state when the temperature dropped sharply, and then slowly formed into it over 10 years. In the heart of pearl, cinnabar tears are born.

Yining stared at Dong Ming, almost staring at him a little tremblingly: "What are you looking at me for?"

Yining shook his head: "Looking at senior brother's face, he is not someone with amazing luck. Why did you get such a treasure?"

Dong Ming scratched his head, and said shyly: "I just think this thing looks good in a jade box." It flashed and flashed, and it was completely different from the group of dim spirit treasures.

Yining held the jade box in the palm of his hand: "We are lucky. This drop of cinnabar tears is rich in color, and it may be millions of years old. The medicinal effect of millions of years of cinnabar tears is extremely long, and we may not be able to drink it with water. Withstanding the power of this medicine, the three of us get one point, and all three of us can step into the golden elixir. There is no specific refining method in the ancient prescription of cinnabar tears. The "Wan Yao Pu" only says that it can be taken with water, which is equivalent to the senior brother's retreat. When I come out, I will divide this thing into three parts, one for each person, which will greatly improve the cultivation base."

Dong Ming said, "Yining, I planned to give it to you."

Yining shook his head: "According to my cultivation base, I can't bear it even if I take the whole medicine now. One part of the medicine for the three of them has slightly reduced its effect, which is just right. Besides, if treasures like cinnabar tears are known to others, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear them." Tianshui Pavilion can be destroyed because of this. We can’t feel it if we take it at this time, but when our cultivation level advances in the future, the benefits of cinnabar tears will be revealed.”
