Alchemy room.
Since the news that "Baijiang is activating the Red Snake Fire" spread, more and more people came to watch the fun, and gradually wrapped up the entire alchemy room, making it impossible to get through.
Seeing more and more onlookers, Qin Yan became anxious again.
"It's been half an hour, why hasn't Bai Jiang recovered?" Qin Yan asked worriedly.
Unlike Qin Yan and Chu Ji who were anxious, Guan Qianyi was very patient.
The red-tasseled long/spear stood quietly on one side, Guan Qianyi held the handle a few times when he had nothing to do, and then glanced at the people around him as if nothing had happened.
The slightly noisy crowd immediately quieted down, silenced, not daring to say a word.
After an unknown amount of time, the alchemy instructor who had been away for a long time finally hurried back.
He yelled at the packed crowd: "Give way! The president is here!"
"Wow—"
The crowded crowd immediately parted ways.
When they looked over, they realized that not only the president, but also Shiyou, and... Qu Zichen came.
Qu Zichen is here!
The onlookers muttered to themselves: What is Qu Zichen doing here?Do you personally guide the activation of the Red Snake Fire on the spot?
Until now, not many people believed that this "White River" could activate the Red Snake Spark.
Even if the president and Qu Zichen came, they still had the same idea.
What's more, even if Qu Zichen succeeds, so what?
Now Qu Zichen is still entangled in fire and poison, with his future ruined.
Watching Hua Qing lead several people into the room, the crowd who had been suppressed for a long time finally whispered, most of them were discussing the possibility of this activation, or pity, sympathy, or ridicule.
Someone looked at Guan Qianyi's spear/spear, and murmured in a low voice: "What's the use of not letting us tell the truth, those who should fail will still fail, maybe the fire poison will enter the body, and at the end of the month, they will be killed by pills." Will you be kicked out?"
"Then what if he walks away and it really happens?"
"Tch, look at Qu Zichen, he is the real proud son of heaven, and in the end he ended up being disfigured after being poisoned by fire."
"Okay, okay, don't say a few words!"
"Uh..." Qu Zichen frowned, glanced back, his eyes were cold.
He is not very talented in cultivation, but this does not mean that he is deaf.
"Zichen."
Hua Qing didn't look back, and called out in a deep voice, "Go and have a look, the rhythm of the flame doesn't seem right. Qu Zichen looked back and walked forward with his eyebrows pressed down.
He has the Red Snake Fire, and the rest of the alchemists don't know the Red Snake Fire as well as him.
A few people followed Qu Zichen and walked forward a few steps. What they saw was a cluster of dark red flames that were gently shaking in the palm of their hands. Secondly, under the reflection of the flames, the slightly scary red-spotted face shone faintly. The faint red light, like...
It's like the skin of the scorpion that hasn't faded completely.
Creepy, dare not look straight.
Bai Jiang and the terrifying red spots on his face had already spread to most of the guild following the fact that he was the first in the assessment.
But Hua Qing was busy with alchemy and didn't have time to pay attention to those rumors. This was the first time he saw the rumored "Bai Jiang".
He glanced at the prudent red scales, frowned as if realizing something, then turned sideways and asked Qu Zichen: "How is it?"
Qu Zichen looked at the slow-moving flames, and his eager eyes stopped. He tasted the law of the flame fluctuations, and then asked strangely: "This flame...how is it so calm?"
"calm?"
Everyone was stunned, and before they could ask further questions, the "calm" flame suddenly began to shrink and then expand.
Shrinking and expanding, everyone backed away subconsciously in shock.
Zhou Bai squinted his eyes, his vitality slowly gathered in his hands, ready to stop the explosion of the fire at all times.
The flame shrunk so intensely that Qu Zichen subconsciously took a step forward.
"Zichen! Come back—"
"boom--"
In an instant, the dark red flame suddenly contracted and expanded, and exploded completely.
Flames filled the sky, and the falling sparks exploded like fireworks, instantly covering every corner of the alchemy room.
The world seemed to be silent for a whole moment.
In the next moment, everyone came back to their senses.
Qu Zichen's pupils narrowed sharply, rushing forward against the sparks that hadn't dissipated.
Zhou Bai stopped him immediately, and in the blink of an eye, he landed next to the slowly shrinking flame. He raised his hand, and poured out his vitality desperately, wrapping the entire flame and the person sitting in the flame tightly.
This is like a natural barrier shield.
Everyone had serious faces, and they all looked at the transparent vitality shield, waiting for the flames to slowly shrink, without daring to take a breath.
The explosion sounded, and the people waiting outside the house were stunned.
After the thunderous sound disappeared, the crowd burst into an uproar, "Is this a failure?"
"Success or failure?"
"This is the first time I've seen a tinder explode?! What's going on?!"
"Uh..." Qin Yan was so frightened that his back tensed up, "What's going on... Qianyi..."
He subconsciously looked at Guan Qianyi, but saw that Guan Qianyi's expression became serious, not as relaxed as before.
Qin Yan's heart suddenly lifted.
Not far away, Chang Qianchou frowned, and asked Qu Bingyun inexplicably: "Senior Brother Qu, what's going on? Baijiang succeeded?"
Bai Jiang's cold look is still deeply burned in his heart. When others ridicule and pity Bai Jiang, he often only has fear.
He even believed that Bai Jiang could succeed.
He was afraid of Bai Jiang's revenge, afraid of offending such a person.
Chang Qianchou really doesn't want Baijiang to succeed.
He looked at Qu Bingyun, his heart beating.
Qu Bingyun slowly raised his head and looked ahead, "Maybe, I don't know either."
He talked to Chang Qianchou like this, but the smile bloomed presumptuously at the corner of his mouth, and the expression hidden under the veil was gradually distorted and insolent.
This kind of movement, still want to succeed?Dream it!Hahaha--
However, before he could be happy for a while, the dark red flame that was enveloped by the boat cypress disappeared completely in an instant.
The moment the flame disappeared, Zhou Bai's dignified expression finally eased and he let out a sigh of relief.
Qu Zichen came out from behind Hua Qing, rushed forward three steps at a time, and rushed onto the stage in the blink of an eye.
"Hey! Bai Jiang!"
Qu Zichen shouted at the person with his eyes closed, nervously raised his head to look at Zhou Bai, "Senior Zhou, how is it?"
Zhou Bai didn't answer, just waved his hand, and the doors of the alchemy room were closed in response, isolating the alchemy room from the outside world.
"Why is the door closed?"
There was an uproar outside the alchemy room.
Chang Qianchou went limp all over, secretly thinking something was wrong, but Qu Bingyun's smile completely froze, and he subconsciously took a step forward.
Not far away, Guan Qian slowly let go of the spear/spear, a flash of light flashed, and the red-tasseled spear/spear disappeared.
She brushed up the broken hair on her forehead, and said relaxedly: "Wait, Bai Jiang will come out soon."
Qin Yan immediately cheered, and slapped Chu Ji together, celebrating uncontrollably.
The surrounding people silently closed their stunned jaws, their faces were sore and hot, and they didn't dare to say a word.
In the alchemy room.
Zhou Bai withdrew the vitality that engulfed the person, and put his hands behind his back.
He looked at the young man sitting cross-legged on the ground, and said with a half-smile, "Little guy, what are you pretending to do? Open your eyes."
As soon as these words fell, most of the tense atmosphere in the alchemy room dissipated immediately.
"Pretending?" Qu Zichen stared sharply, staring at the person on the stage.
Feeling a lot of emotional gazes, Jiang Changning sighed in his heart: "Miscalculation..."
The moment Zhou Bai appeared, Jiang Changning was blindfolded.
What Hua Qing, Qu Zichen and even Mu Lao didn't know didn't mean Zhou Bai didn't know!What kind of family is the Zhou family? Can you not know the situation after the activation of the Red Snake Fire Seed? !
He thought and thought, thinking about how to end it, so as to keep his little vest.
Thinking of the end, Jiang Changning gave up struggling, directly ignited the fire, and ended this extremely reckless move in the most sensational way.
But as soon as this method came out, Zhou Bai naturally knew that he had perfected his grasp of fire, and could even accurately control the splashing of each flame;
Jiang Changning twitched his eyelashes, slowly raised his eyelids, and what came into his eyes with the light was Zhou Bai's playful smile.
Stepping on wooden clogs, carrying a long sword, and her hair is still tied loosely behind her...
If it wasn't for the fact that the background of the alchemy room was not right, Jiang Changning even thought that he was still in Lingyunmen in a trance.
Pulling a small cushion, you can lean on Zhou Bai's knees, and listen to him slowly and freely talk about the Wuji Continent, about cultivating immortals and Taoism, and tell anecdotes about the field that he doesn't know where he collected.
Jiang Changning stared at Zhou Bai, his eyes were a little blurry.
Zhou Baiben still had a smile on his face, but when Jiang Changning looked at him, the emotion in the child's eyes was so strong that he couldn't hide it at all.Zhou Bai smiled slightly, looked at the person sitting cross-legged on the ground, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Aware of Zhou Bai's gaze, Jiang Changning lowered his eyes subconsciously, and then slowly got up to meet the puzzled gaze of everyone, and said calmly: "The fire poison in this red snake fire seed is less than I thought, and it has been activated just now. The follow-up is to test the degree of compatibility between the fire and me, I did not expect to cause such a big disturbance, it is the disciple's recklessness."
After a while, Hua Qing restrained the surprise in his eyes, and reprimanded in a deep voice: "You are not reckless, you are risking your life!"
Jiang Changning lowered his head, looking extremely well-behaved, willing to scold and scold.
As an alchemist whose essence is to save lives and heal the wounded, Hua Qing can't see anyone taking his own life as a joke. Even if he is sure, it is still a risk!Take your life and take no chances!
Seeing that Hua Qing was getting a little angry, Mu Lao, who followed the sound, hurried forward to stop him, and persuaded him with a smile: "Okay, this little guy is just a little more courageous, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine. "
Hua Qing took a deep breath, stared at Jiang Changning deeply, "You still have a bright future, and you must not be so reckless in the future."
Jiang Changning bowed slightly to him, "The disciple is taught."
Seeing that the little guy who caused the uproar was fine, all the alchemists in the alchemy room suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, you look at me, I look at you, they all laughed aloud after being nervously embarrassed by the other party.
Jiang Changning kept his head down, not looking at the other person.
Bai Han said softly: "Chang Ning, that person has been watching you..."
While the others were happy or relaxed, Zhou Bai was quietly staring at Jiang Changning.
Originally, there were puzzles and doubts in his eyes, but after "Bai Jiang" spoke for a long time, those emotions disappeared completely.
Zhou Bai looked at Jiang Changning, raised his sword eyebrows lightly, with a hint of the original.
Reminded by Bai Han, Jiang Changning could only purse his lips and remain silent, with a little helplessness in his eyes.
No matter how much his appearance changes, his voice is difficult to change. With the master's hearing ability, how can he not hear it?
Not only did Zhou Bai catch such a big incident today, Jiang Changning took a deep breath and didn't dare to look up.
Hua Qing finished a few words of training, raised his hand to call Qu Zichen, and told Jiang Changning: "You must pay attention to the vitality in your body in the past few days. If there is accumulation of fire and poison, tell me or Zichen immediately."
Qu Zichen, who was named, straightened his face and stared at Jiang Changning: "I am your senior brother, Qu Zichen, and I also use the red snake fire seed, just call me senior brother Zichen."
Jiang Changning: "Hello, Zichen, brother."
Bai Han laughed: "Are you really called Senior Brother?"
Obviously Jiang Changning is Qu Zichen's cousin!
Jiang Changning twitched the corners of his mouth, smiling subtly.
After the president announced that Baijiang was fine, the alchemists completely relaxed. They touched their drenched clothes, left with a smile, and went out to catch the apprentices who were watching.
There is a group of people waiting for the results outside the alchemy room. They are waiting eagerly, watching the alchemy instructors walk out of the alchemy room and close the door.
The leading alchemy instructor waved his hand: "Apprentices follow me, go back to class, I haven't finished learning today's content."
When the numb people looked at each other, a voice immediately asked, "Has Baijiang been successfully activated?"
"Successful." The alchemy instructor replied while rubbing his tense and even stiff face.
They left after talking.
Leaving behind a crowd of stunned people.
——"Baijiang successfully activated the Red Snake Fire Seed"
This news is spread to ten, ten to hundreds, and hundreds to thousands.
Those people who just mocked and pity Bai Jiang's eyes widened, dumbfounded, they couldn't imagine it, but they had to believe it.
Chu Ji raised his voice and said cheerfully: "Some people, because they are incompetent, just laugh at others for not being able to do it. Does it hurt? Is it embarrassing?"
The people around were embarrassed by his yelling, lowered their heads and gritted their teeth, but had no words to refute.
Especially Qu Bingyun, his joints were creaking.
Every word of Chu Ji's words was like a sharp knife, piercing his face fiercely, dripping with blood!
"Qu—Senior Brother Qu."
Chang Qianchou looked at Qu Bingyun's veins on the back of his hand in shock.
He suddenly remembered that at the auction yesterday, the person Qu Bingyun had been targeting all along, finally won the auction of the Red Snake Tinder...
So that person is Bai Jiang? !
Chang Qianchou held his breath in his chest, feeling cold all over.
If Baijiang...
If Bai Jiang knew that his things were taken away by Qu Bingyun...
Chang Qiandao dare not imagine.
He seems to be able to feel the breath of death that day, and he will never forget it in this life.
He whispered: "Senior Brother Qu, the instructor is counting the number of people, I'm leaving first."
Regardless of whether Qu Bingyun heard it or not, Chang Qian walked away, sweating profusely.
……
This event that shocked half of the guild in less than an hour ended like an anticlimax.
After everyone left, Hua Qing had already calmed down. He stared at the apprentices who were usually covered with red spots like his apprentices, and rarely thought of recruiting apprentices.
Zhou Bai stood aside, and said slowly: "The matter is settled, I'll go first, Shiyou and Zichen, you come with me, I haven't finished talking about those things just now."
"Ah?" Qu Zichen, who was staring at Jiang Changning, was taken aback for a moment, and he looked up with a puzzled face.
The elixir just now?
Isn't it over?
Zhou Bai had already walked away at a leisurely pace, with one hand behind his back, his posture was relaxed.
Shiyou tactfully didn't ask.
After pulling Qu Zichen to salute Hua Qing, she left in the direction of Zhou Bai.
Hua Qing glanced at Zhou Bai, then at Jiang Changning and the trembling alchemy instructor.
When he saw it, the alchemy instructor's scalp was numb, and his legs were almost weak.
He secretly glanced at Jiang Changning, looking at the still calm little monster, wanting to cry without tears.
With a calm voice, Hua Qing trained the alchemy instructor: "There is no problem this time, but it does not mean that there is no problem this time. We must keep an eye on the apprentices, and this kind of thing must never happen again."
The alchemy instructor nodded repeatedly, not daring to make a sound.
Hua Qing took another look at the well-behaved apprentice with his head down all the time. After his anger subsided, his desire to accept apprentices became more and more serious, and he couldn't suppress it.
Seeing his slightly relaxed expression, Mu Lao knew what Hua Qing was thinking at a glance.
"This little guy has a master. How can he teach a little monster without an old monster around?" Mu Lao patted Hua Qing on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Let's go and find Zhou Bai. I don't know what that fellow Zhou Bai came up with, and asked Shiyou and Zichen to follow him by name."
Have a master?
A subtle thought flashed through Hua Qing's mind, and he disappeared soon after he realized it.
Hua Qing frowned slightly, turned and left.
Finally, everyone left.
Qin Yan immediately jumped in one after another, stuck to Jiang Changning, and looked around with big eyes: "Are you injured? Is there any discomfort? You are scaring us to death!"
Jiang Changning was used to being clingy to the young boy. After he and Guan Qianyi exchanged a glance, he looked away helplessly and stared at a wall to let himself go.
Qu Bingyun was the last to enter the alchemy room.
He lowered his head, his whole face was hidden under the cloak, with an unknown sense of gloom.
The alchemy instructor who recovered from his senses glanced at him, and looked away strangely.
Because of Jiang Changning's coquettish operation of activating the tinder, there was less than an hour and a half left before the end of the afternoon. The alchemy instructor took a deep breath and forced himself not to care about Bai Jiang's perverted talent, and smoothly returned to the classroom. atmosphere.
Huaqing's courtyard.
Compared with the alchemy room or alchemy hall that came and went, Huaqing's courtyard was the only place where Shang Fangsheng did not interfere.
Zhou Bai led Shi You and Qu Zichen back to the courtyard.
He stood under the pomegranate tree with dead leaves floating, with one hand behind his back, looking into the distance, silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
Qu Zichen gently tugged on Shiyou's sleeve, "Senior Sister..."
"Shh."
Shi You signaled him to keep quiet.
Qu Zichen frowned and stood puzzled.
After about half an hour, Zhou Bai slowly turned around and looked at Shiyou and Qu Zichen.
His eyes were deep, and he fell on Shiyou, but he seemed to be looking at other people through her, "The pill and green release poison user, have you seen his appearance?"
Shiyou paused and shook his head slightly, "Only I have seen him twice, but he is wearing a mask, so I can't see his face clearly."
"Wearing a mask..." Zhou Bai folded his hands behind his back, his silver-gray eyes slightly narrowed, like a mysterious whirlpool, making it unpredictable.
Qu Zichen tugged Shiyou's sleeve, and whispered: "Senior sister, record the crystal."
Shiyou naturally thought of recording crystals, but Zhou Bai suddenly mentioned the mysterious person, and she couldn't tell what Zhou Bai meant, so she didn't say it directly.
Zhou Bai could hear Qu Zichen's quiet voice.
He looked sideways at Shi You, and smiled lightly, "What did that man do to make your brothers and sisters protect you like this?"
Qu Zichen licked his lips and said in embarrassment: "Senior... It's not that we are cautious, it is true that he saved me and my master, if we cause him trouble... I feel ashamed."
Hearing this, Zhou Bai gently waved his hand: "I already guessed who he is, I just asked you to make sure."
The words have been said so far, and it would be a little bit embarrassing to refuse.
Qu Zichen and Shiyou looked at each other, and finally Shiyou presented the recording crystal.
After the two left, Zhou Bai looked at the image revealed by the recording crystal, and his eyes fell on the silver mask.
Familiar mask, familiar voice, familiar figure.
He still remembered this mask.
During the Lantern Festival that year, Jiang Changning bought gifts as if Zhou Ningchu had moved house helplessly, and at the same time packed up a small house-like place in the space jade pendant to pile up Zhou Ningchu's gifts.
In a flash, it has been five or six years.
Zhou Bai felt a little melancholy and a little pride in his heart.
"This kid... Oh, forget it, sooner or later he has to fly." He murmured and put away the recording crystal.
into the night.
The elixir guild, which had been busy all day, became quiet.
Zhou Bai got up quietly, he suppressed the surging vitality, and after a few leaps, he landed on the top of the building with precision.
On the top of the building, he still walked forward silently like walking on the ground.
The second floor of the Trading District Inn.
Jiang Changning rested with his legs crossed, but his heart was not peaceful at all.
He picked up the yawning little black cat, worried.
Bai Han was terribly sleepy, "If you really want to see your master, go to him."
Jiang Changning sighed again: "He left today, I don't know if he recognized me..."
The kitten rolled his eyes at him: "Then why are you so entangled?"
Jiang Changning pursed his lips and remained silent.
One person and one cat stared at each other with big eyes for a moment, and suddenly there was a whirring wind outside the window on the second floor.
Jiang Changning tensed up and quickly jumped up from the bed.
The wooden window had been blown open by the strong wind, and a figure in green shirt stood outside the window.
Those strange silver-gray eyes looked into the room, and their gaze fell on Jiang Changning with precision and power.
Jiang Changning's breathing gradually slowed down, he mustered up the courage to raise his head, and met the searching gaze.
The moment he found the person, Zhou Bai's pupils shrank slightly, and then he laughed out loud, "Stinky boy, Wan Tian is three miles away from the wilderness, come and fight with Wei Shi."
After speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared in mid-air.
Jiang Changning's stagnant breathing hadn't slowed down yet, and Zhou Bai's actions made him neither exhale nor inhale, so he had to mobilize his vitality dumbfoundedly, and followed Zhou Bai firmly.
The author says:
Good night--
Since the news that "Baijiang is activating the Red Snake Fire" spread, more and more people came to watch the fun, and gradually wrapped up the entire alchemy room, making it impossible to get through.
Seeing more and more onlookers, Qin Yan became anxious again.
"It's been half an hour, why hasn't Bai Jiang recovered?" Qin Yan asked worriedly.
Unlike Qin Yan and Chu Ji who were anxious, Guan Qianyi was very patient.
The red-tasseled long/spear stood quietly on one side, Guan Qianyi held the handle a few times when he had nothing to do, and then glanced at the people around him as if nothing had happened.
The slightly noisy crowd immediately quieted down, silenced, not daring to say a word.
After an unknown amount of time, the alchemy instructor who had been away for a long time finally hurried back.
He yelled at the packed crowd: "Give way! The president is here!"
"Wow—"
The crowded crowd immediately parted ways.
When they looked over, they realized that not only the president, but also Shiyou, and... Qu Zichen came.
Qu Zichen is here!
The onlookers muttered to themselves: What is Qu Zichen doing here?Do you personally guide the activation of the Red Snake Fire on the spot?
Until now, not many people believed that this "White River" could activate the Red Snake Spark.
Even if the president and Qu Zichen came, they still had the same idea.
What's more, even if Qu Zichen succeeds, so what?
Now Qu Zichen is still entangled in fire and poison, with his future ruined.
Watching Hua Qing lead several people into the room, the crowd who had been suppressed for a long time finally whispered, most of them were discussing the possibility of this activation, or pity, sympathy, or ridicule.
Someone looked at Guan Qianyi's spear/spear, and murmured in a low voice: "What's the use of not letting us tell the truth, those who should fail will still fail, maybe the fire poison will enter the body, and at the end of the month, they will be killed by pills." Will you be kicked out?"
"Then what if he walks away and it really happens?"
"Tch, look at Qu Zichen, he is the real proud son of heaven, and in the end he ended up being disfigured after being poisoned by fire."
"Okay, okay, don't say a few words!"
"Uh..." Qu Zichen frowned, glanced back, his eyes were cold.
He is not very talented in cultivation, but this does not mean that he is deaf.
"Zichen."
Hua Qing didn't look back, and called out in a deep voice, "Go and have a look, the rhythm of the flame doesn't seem right. Qu Zichen looked back and walked forward with his eyebrows pressed down.
He has the Red Snake Fire, and the rest of the alchemists don't know the Red Snake Fire as well as him.
A few people followed Qu Zichen and walked forward a few steps. What they saw was a cluster of dark red flames that were gently shaking in the palm of their hands. Secondly, under the reflection of the flames, the slightly scary red-spotted face shone faintly. The faint red light, like...

In an instant, the dark red flame suddenly contracted and expanded, and exploded completely.
Flames filled the sky, and the falling sparks exploded like fireworks, instantly covering every corner of the alchemy room.
The world seemed to be silent for a whole moment.

"Success or failure?"
"This is the first time I've seen a tinder explode?! What's going on?!"

He subconsciously looked at Guan Qianyi, but saw that Guan Qianyi's expression became serious, not as relaxed as before.
Qin Yan's heart suddenly lifted.
Not far away, Chang Qianchou frowned, and asked Qu Bingyun inexplicably: "Senior Brother Qu, what's going on? Baijiang succeeded?"
Bai Jiang's cold look is still deeply burned in his heart. When others ridicule and pity Bai Jiang, he often only has fear.
He even believed that Bai Jiang could succeed.
He was afraid of Bai Jiang's revenge, afraid of offending such a person.
Chang Qianchou really doesn't want Baijiang to succeed.
He looked at Qu Bingyun, his heart beating.
Qu Bingyun slowly raised his head and looked ahead, "Maybe, I don't know either."
He talked to Chang Qianchou like this, but the smile bloomed presumptuously at the corner of his mouth, and the expression hidden under the veil was gradually distorted and insolent.

Qu Zichen shouted at the person with his eyes closed, nervously raised his head to look at Zhou Bai, "Senior Zhou, how is it?"
Zhou Bai didn't answer, just waved his hand, and the doors of the alchemy room were closed in response, isolating the alchemy room from the outside world.
"Why is the door closed?"
There was an uproar outside the alchemy room.
Chang Qianchou went limp all over, secretly thinking something was wrong, but Qu Bingyun's smile completely froze, and he subconsciously took a step forward.
Not far away, Guan Qian slowly let go of the spear/spear, a flash of light flashed, and the red-tasseled spear/spear disappeared.
She brushed up the broken hair on her forehead, and said relaxedly: "Wait, Bai Jiang will come out soon."
Qin Yan immediately cheered, and slapped Chu Ji together, celebrating uncontrollably.
The surrounding people silently closed their stunned jaws, their faces were sore and hot, and they didn't dare to say a word.
In the alchemy room.
Zhou Bai withdrew the vitality that engulfed the person, and put his hands behind his back.
He looked at the young man sitting cross-legged on the ground, and said with a half-smile, "Little guy, what are you pretending to do? Open your eyes."
As soon as these words fell, most of the tense atmosphere in the alchemy room dissipated immediately.
"Pretending?" Qu Zichen stared sharply, staring at the person on the stage.
Feeling a lot of emotional gazes, Jiang Changning sighed in his heart: "Miscalculation..."

Jiang Changning bowed slightly to him, "The disciple is taught."
Seeing that the little guy who caused the uproar was fine, all the alchemists in the alchemy room suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, you look at me, I look at you, they all laughed aloud after being nervously embarrassed by the other party.
Jiang Changning kept his head down, not looking at the other person.
Bai Han said softly: "Chang Ning, that person has been watching you..."
While the others were happy or relaxed, Zhou Bai was quietly staring at Jiang Changning.
Originally, there were puzzles and doubts in his eyes, but after "Bai Jiang" spoke for a long time, those emotions disappeared completely.
Zhou Bai looked at Jiang Changning, raised his sword eyebrows lightly, with a hint of the original.
Reminded by Bai Han, Jiang Changning could only purse his lips and remain silent, with a little helplessness in his eyes.
No matter how much his appearance changes, his voice is difficult to change. With the master's hearing ability, how can he not hear it?
Not only did Zhou Bai catch such a big incident today, Jiang Changning took a deep breath and didn't dare to look up.
Hua Qing finished a few words of training, raised his hand to call Qu Zichen, and told Jiang Changning: "You must pay attention to the vitality in your body in the past few days. If there is accumulation of fire and poison, tell me or Zichen immediately."
Qu Zichen, who was named, straightened his face and stared at Jiang Changning: "I am your senior brother, Qu Zichen, and I also use the red snake fire seed, just call me senior brother Zichen."
Jiang Changning: "Hello, Zichen, brother."
Bai Han laughed: "Are you really called Senior Brother?"
Obviously Jiang Changning is Qu Zichen's cousin!
Jiang Changning twitched the corners of his mouth, smiling subtly.
After the president announced that Baijiang was fine, the alchemists completely relaxed. They touched their drenched clothes, left with a smile, and went out to catch the apprentices who were watching.
There is a group of people waiting for the results outside the alchemy room. They are waiting eagerly, watching the alchemy instructors walk out of the alchemy room and close the door.
The leading alchemy instructor waved his hand: "Apprentices follow me, go back to class, I haven't finished learning today's content."
When the numb people looked at each other, a voice immediately asked, "Has Baijiang been successfully activated?"
"Successful." The alchemy instructor replied while rubbing his tense and even stiff face.
They left after talking.
Leaving behind a crowd of stunned people.
——"Baijiang successfully activated the Red Snake Fire Seed"
This news is spread to ten, ten to hundreds, and hundreds to thousands.
Those people who just mocked and pity Bai Jiang's eyes widened, dumbfounded, they couldn't imagine it, but they had to believe it.
Chu Ji raised his voice and said cheerfully: "Some people, because they are incompetent, just laugh at others for not being able to do it. Does it hurt? Is it embarrassing?"
The people around were embarrassed by his yelling, lowered their heads and gritted their teeth, but had no words to refute.
Especially Qu Bingyun, his joints were creaking.
Every word of Chu Ji's words was like a sharp knife, piercing his face fiercely, dripping with blood!
"Qu—Senior Brother Qu."
Chang Qianchou looked at Qu Bingyun's veins on the back of his hand in shock.
He suddenly remembered that at the auction yesterday, the person Qu Bingyun had been targeting all along, finally won the auction of the Red Snake Tinder...
So that person is Bai Jiang? !
Chang Qianchou held his breath in his chest, feeling cold all over.
If Baijiang...
If Bai Jiang knew that his things were taken away by Qu Bingyun...
Chang Qiandao dare not imagine.
He seems to be able to feel the breath of death that day, and he will never forget it in this life.
He whispered: "Senior Brother Qu, the instructor is counting the number of people, I'm leaving first."
Regardless of whether Qu Bingyun heard it or not, Chang Qian walked away, sweating profusely.
……
This event that shocked half of the guild in less than an hour ended like an anticlimax.
After everyone left, Hua Qing had already calmed down. He stared at the apprentices who were usually covered with red spots like his apprentices, and rarely thought of recruiting apprentices.
Zhou Bai stood aside, and said slowly: "The matter is settled, I'll go first, Shiyou and Zichen, you come with me, I haven't finished talking about those things just now."
"Ah?" Qu Zichen, who was staring at Jiang Changning, was taken aback for a moment, and he looked up with a puzzled face.
The elixir just now?
Isn't it over?
Zhou Bai had already walked away at a leisurely pace, with one hand behind his back, his posture was relaxed.
Shiyou tactfully didn't ask.
After pulling Qu Zichen to salute Hua Qing, she left in the direction of Zhou Bai.
Hua Qing glanced at Zhou Bai, then at Jiang Changning and the trembling alchemy instructor.
When he saw it, the alchemy instructor's scalp was numb, and his legs were almost weak.
He secretly glanced at Jiang Changning, looking at the still calm little monster, wanting to cry without tears.
With a calm voice, Hua Qing trained the alchemy instructor: "There is no problem this time, but it does not mean that there is no problem this time. We must keep an eye on the apprentices, and this kind of thing must never happen again."
The alchemy instructor nodded repeatedly, not daring to make a sound.
Hua Qing took another look at the well-behaved apprentice with his head down all the time. After his anger subsided, his desire to accept apprentices became more and more serious, and he couldn't suppress it.
Seeing his slightly relaxed expression, Mu Lao knew what Hua Qing was thinking at a glance.
"This little guy has a master. How can he teach a little monster without an old monster around?" Mu Lao patted Hua Qing on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Let's go and find Zhou Bai. I don't know what that fellow Zhou Bai came up with, and asked Shiyou and Zichen to follow him by name."
Have a master?
A subtle thought flashed through Hua Qing's mind, and he disappeared soon after he realized it.
Hua Qing frowned slightly, turned and left.
Finally, everyone left.
Qin Yan immediately jumped in one after another, stuck to Jiang Changning, and looked around with big eyes: "Are you injured? Is there any discomfort? You are scaring us to death!"
Jiang Changning was used to being clingy to the young boy. After he and Guan Qianyi exchanged a glance, he looked away helplessly and stared at a wall to let himself go.
Qu Bingyun was the last to enter the alchemy room.
He lowered his head, his whole face was hidden under the cloak, with an unknown sense of gloom.
The alchemy instructor who recovered from his senses glanced at him, and looked away strangely.
Because of Jiang Changning's coquettish operation of activating the tinder, there was less than an hour and a half left before the end of the afternoon. The alchemy instructor took a deep breath and forced himself not to care about Bai Jiang's perverted talent, and smoothly returned to the classroom. atmosphere.
Huaqing's courtyard.
Compared with the alchemy room or alchemy hall that came and went, Huaqing's courtyard was the only place where Shang Fangsheng did not interfere.
Zhou Bai led Shi You and Qu Zichen back to the courtyard.
He stood under the pomegranate tree with dead leaves floating, with one hand behind his back, looking into the distance, silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
Qu Zichen gently tugged on Shiyou's sleeve, "Senior Sister..."
"Shh."
Shi You signaled him to keep quiet.
Qu Zichen frowned and stood puzzled.
After about half an hour, Zhou Bai slowly turned around and looked at Shiyou and Qu Zichen.
His eyes were deep, and he fell on Shiyou, but he seemed to be looking at other people through her, "The pill and green release poison user, have you seen his appearance?"
Shiyou paused and shook his head slightly, "Only I have seen him twice, but he is wearing a mask, so I can't see his face clearly."
"Wearing a mask..." Zhou Bai folded his hands behind his back, his silver-gray eyes slightly narrowed, like a mysterious whirlpool, making it unpredictable.
Qu Zichen tugged Shiyou's sleeve, and whispered: "Senior sister, record the crystal."
Shiyou naturally thought of recording crystals, but Zhou Bai suddenly mentioned the mysterious person, and she couldn't tell what Zhou Bai meant, so she didn't say it directly.
Zhou Bai could hear Qu Zichen's quiet voice.
He looked sideways at Shi You, and smiled lightly, "What did that man do to make your brothers and sisters protect you like this?"
Qu Zichen licked his lips and said in embarrassment: "Senior... It's not that we are cautious, it is true that he saved me and my master, if we cause him trouble... I feel ashamed."
Hearing this, Zhou Bai gently waved his hand: "I already guessed who he is, I just asked you to make sure."
The words have been said so far, and it would be a little bit embarrassing to refuse.
Qu Zichen and Shiyou looked at each other, and finally Shiyou presented the recording crystal.
After the two left, Zhou Bai looked at the image revealed by the recording crystal, and his eyes fell on the silver mask.
Familiar mask, familiar voice, familiar figure.
He still remembered this mask.
During the Lantern Festival that year, Jiang Changning bought gifts as if Zhou Ningchu had moved house helplessly, and at the same time packed up a small house-like place in the space jade pendant to pile up Zhou Ningchu's gifts.
In a flash, it has been five or six years.
Zhou Bai felt a little melancholy and a little pride in his heart.
"This kid... Oh, forget it, sooner or later he has to fly." He murmured and put away the recording crystal.
into the night.
The elixir guild, which had been busy all day, became quiet.
Zhou Bai got up quietly, he suppressed the surging vitality, and after a few leaps, he landed on the top of the building with precision.
On the top of the building, he still walked forward silently like walking on the ground.
The second floor of the Trading District Inn.
Jiang Changning rested with his legs crossed, but his heart was not peaceful at all.
He picked up the yawning little black cat, worried.
Bai Han was terribly sleepy, "If you really want to see your master, go to him."
Jiang Changning sighed again: "He left today, I don't know if he recognized me..."
The kitten rolled his eyes at him: "Then why are you so entangled?"
Jiang Changning pursed his lips and remained silent.
One person and one cat stared at each other with big eyes for a moment, and suddenly there was a whirring wind outside the window on the second floor.
Jiang Changning tensed up and quickly jumped up from the bed.
The wooden window had been blown open by the strong wind, and a figure in green shirt stood outside the window.
Those strange silver-gray eyes looked into the room, and their gaze fell on Jiang Changning with precision and power.
Jiang Changning's breathing gradually slowed down, he mustered up the courage to raise his head, and met the searching gaze.
The moment he found the person, Zhou Bai's pupils shrank slightly, and then he laughed out loud, "Stinky boy, Wan Tian is three miles away from the wilderness, come and fight with Wei Shi."
After speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared in mid-air.
Jiang Changning's stagnant breathing hadn't slowed down yet, and Zhou Bai's actions made him neither exhale nor inhale, so he had to mobilize his vitality dumbfoundedly, and followed Zhou Bai firmly.
