Xiao Minghuang rubbed Ye Ruoshui's head, took her little hand, walked out of the room, and headed towards the palace.
Soon.
The imperial palace, the shrine.
Outside the attic in the center of the lake.
"The alchemy furnace is in the attic."
Xiao Minghuang pointed to the attic and said to Ye Ruoshui.
"Ok!"
Ye Ruoshui's eyes were filled with joy, and there was a hint of shock on her small face. She had never used a high-grade alchemy furnace since she practiced alchemy. In the past, she used only non-standard alchemy furnaces. Now she is going to use a high-grade pill for the first time. Furnace, the excitement can be imagined.
When the two walked to the door, the attendant standing aside said:
"Your Highness, the Seventh Elder is refining alchemy. No one is allowed to disturb you at this time. Look..."
Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang frowned slightly, and said in her heart: "Just now I said that I would bring someone over, why did you just start the furnace?"
What Xiao Minghuang didn't know was that the Seventh Elder was a complete alchemy idiot, and he had nothing else to do except alchemy in his life, otherwise it would be impossible for him to figure out the method of alchemy alone.
However, she did not insist on entering the attic. She gave the Seventh Elder Xiangxue Body Forging Pill just now, which seemed to inspire him. This furnace of pills should not be fried.
But at this time.
The voice of the Seventh Elder suddenly came from the attic.
"Since Princess Nine is here, please come in and bring your maid."
Hearing this, the attendant's expression froze. He knew that the Seventh Elder hated being disturbed the most when he was refining alchemy.
But now he took the initiative to invite the nine princesses to come in. What kind of courtesy is this?
Moreover, he just stopped the nine princesses, would he have offended this Highness?
For a moment, the attendant's face was extremely pale.
Xiao Minghuang didn't care about the attendant's reaction at all, she took Ye Ruoshui's little hand and stepped into the attic.
The attic is still decorated as before, but in the huge alchemy furnace in the center of the hall, the flames are burning, and the heat waves are surging.
The Seventh Elder was sitting at the vent of the alchemy furnace, saw Xiao Minghuang and the two entering the room, he did not stop the movements of his hands, and continued to be busy.
Xiao Minghuang didn't intend to disturb the Seventh Elder either, she turned her head and introduced to Ye Ruoshui:
"This is the seven priests of the royal family I mentioned, the most powerful alchemist in Great Xia."
"This alchemy furnace was forged by the Seventh Elder himself. It is called Zhuanhuo Furnace. It is a middle-grade magic weapon of the Huang rank. Ruoshui can try to use this alchemy furnace to refine pills."
Hearing Xiao Minghuang's words, Ye Ruoshui's little face showed a touch of excitement, and said gratefully:
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
After that, the two didn't say much, but concentrated on watching the Seventh Elder alchemy.
As the most famous alchemist in Daxia, the Seventh Elder must have his own unique alchemy techniques. Even if Ye Ruoshui is a natural alchemist, he will be inspired by watching others alchemy.
but.
Only about a quarter of an hour later, Ye Ruoshui's small face showed a hint of doubt, and he gently pulled Xiao Minghuang's clothes, and asked in confusion:
"Your Highness, I think the Seventh Elder's alchemy technique seems to be completely ignorant of the alchemy method, and he relies entirely on his own spiritual power to forcibly condense the elixir. I am afraid that it will be easy to explode the furnace. Even if there is no furnace, the success rate will not be high." It's very high, I'm afraid it won't exceed [-]%."
Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang frowned slightly, she didn't understand alchemy, but she believed Ye Ruoshui's words very much.
Although the Seventh Elder is well-known, he has never heard of any high-quality elixir refined by him.
Although Ye Ruoshui's cultivation base is not high and she has no reputation, she saw this little girl refining the pill with her own eyes.
However, she is a junior after all, if she speaks out, she might be disrespectful.
While she was hesitating.
A look of panic suddenly appeared in Ye Ruoshui's eyes, and he said in a trembling voice:
"The Seventh Elder actually condensed the elixir without going through the purification of the elixir solution. I am afraid that the success rate of this batch of elixir will not exceed [-]%, and it may even blow up the furnace!"
Ye Ruoshui's exclamation made Xiao Minghuang's heart skip a beat, and his eyes fixed on the Seventh Elder.
Boom!
Suddenly, bursts of explosions came from the pill furnace, followed by a thick puff of smoke from the pill furnace.
Xiao Minghuang's expression changed suddenly, he pulled Ye Ruoshui back a few steps, and used his spiritual power to lift up the shield to resist the shock wave of the fryer.
at this time.
A pale yellow light emanated from the gray smoke, which spread rapidly, calming down all the smoke and dust in the house.
After a few breaths, the dust settled.
Xiao Minghuang withdrew the shield, and saw the disgraced figure of the Seventh Elder staggering down from the alchemy furnace.
"Cough cough cough~!"
The Seventh Elder coughed several times in a row, his old face flushed red from the severe coughing.
The moment Xiao Minghuang and Ye Ruoshui saw the appearance of the Seventh Elder, they both heaved a sigh of relief. Xiao Minghuang even stepped forward, stretched out his hand to support the Seventh Elder, and said softly:
"Elder Seven, are you alright?"
"Cough cough cough~"
The Seventh Elder coughed several times, and his face became more and more ugly.
He originally wanted to show off in front of the Ninth Princess and her maid this time, so that the young people would know how powerful he is as a alchemy master, but he didn't expect not only to fail in alchemy, but to blow up the furnace instead. This time, he forgets to lose his old face up.
After frying the furnace, the thought that made him want to give advice to Princess Nine was also extinguished, and he said in a waned way:
"I'm fine, it's just a fryer. This is something that often happens during alchemy. Don't make a fuss...I'm tired. If you have something to do, let's talk about it at another time!"
Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang hadn't opened his mouth yet, but Ye Ruoshui couldn't help it.
Her little eyebrows were frowned, and with a little fear, she poked her head out from behind Xiao Minghuang and said:
"Seventh Elder, don't talk nonsense. How can things like frying furnaces be so common? It's obvious that you are not good at learning. Not only is your alchemy technique not good, but you are not even familiar with the properties of medicine. Otherwise, how could this happen!"
82. Compare, compare, who is afraid of whom!
"What did you say?"
When the Seventh Elder heard Ye Ruoshui's words, his face changed suddenly, his eyes were cold, and his tone was cold:
"Who said I can't make a batch of alchemy?"
Hearing these words, Ye Ruoshui immediately retracted her head in fright, and hid behind Xiao Minghuang and shivered.
Even Xiao Minghuang couldn't help feeling a bit of pressure from being glared at by a strong man in the Divine Sea Realm. Her eyes were heavy, she cupped her hands and said:
"Senior Elder Seven, why should you have the same knowledge as a little girl?"
"Humph!"
The Seventh Elder snorted coldly, and looked at Ye Ruoshui with cold eyes.
He was confused by anger just now, but now that he wakes up, he also realizes that Ye Ruoshui is just a little girl, and he doesn't want to bully the little girl, but once someone touches his Ni Lin, he will never let it go so easily.
"The little girl doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, so stay with the old man and be a Dantong for three years!"
The Seventh Elder said in a cold tone, without any doubt.
"Three-year Dantong?"
Xiao Minghuang was stunned for a moment.
The alchemist's Dantong, on weekdays, carries charcoal and medicinal materials for the alchemist, and does some rough work. He is said to be a Dantong, but in fact he is almost a servant.
Xiao Minghuang treated Ye Ruoshui as his younger sister, so naturally he didn't want her to do such a job.
She turned her eyes to the Seventh Elder, and her eyes gradually faded.
Ye Ruoshui was young and energetic, and ran into the Seventh Elder for a while, although it was not very polite.
But Xiao Minghuang thought that what she said was good.
Therefore, she would never sit back and watch Ye Ruoshui be humiliated today.
Moreover, even if Ye Ruoshui's words are unreasonable, she will resolutely take Ye Ruoshui away!
Seeing Xiao Minghuang firmly guarding Ye Ruoshui behind him, the Seventh Elder couldn't help but frowned slightly, and said softly:
"It seems that the ninth princess is unwilling to give the old man this face?"
When the matter developed to this point, Xiao Minghuang didn't intend to compromise, and said bluntly:
"This princess thinks that there is nothing wrong with Ruoshui's words. The Seventh Elder's lack of skill caused the alchemy furnace to blow up, and instead vented his anger on a little girl. Is this what a dignified royal family should do?"
"What? You said the old man was venting his anger?"
The Seventh Elder's face darkened, and his tone instantly became sharp.
"That's right, we've all seen it. If it wasn't for your improper alchemy technique that caused the pill to explode, wouldn't it be possible to vent your anger?"
Seeing that His Highness stood up for her, Ye Ruoshui suddenly had the courage to push back.
"Hmph! The old man is not so confused yet. You say that the old man is angry, but the old man wants to see what evidence you can come up with!"
Ye Ruoshui pointed to the alchemy furnace, and said:
"This batch of waste pills is evidence!"
"Little girl..."
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Xiao Minghuang quickly interrupted:
"Elder Seven, you are a senior, don't you have the capacity to accommodate others?"
"If Shui said that the Seventh Elder's alchemy techniques are invincible, then why don't you two have a competition and use your respective alchemy techniques. Whoever wins is the right one."
While talking, Xiao Minghuang turned his gaze to Ye Ruoshui and asked:
"Ruoshui, do you dare to compete with the Seventh Elder?"
Ye Ruoshui, who had always been timid, now had bright eyes, and agreed without hesitation:
"Compare, compare, who is afraid of who!"
Seeing that Ye Ruoshui agreed, the Seventh Elder narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sarcastic arc was drawn at the corner of his mouth.
"This seat is the number one alchemist in the Great Xia, a powerhouse in the fifth level of the Divine Sea, why should I surrender my status to compete with your mere maid for alchemy? Wouldn't it make people in the world laugh at me for bullying little girls?"
Hearing the words of the Seventh Elder, Ye Ruoshui immediately curled his lips and said dissatisfiedly:
"Seventh Elder, I didn't say that you bullied me. If you say that, aren't you clearly insulting me? If you don't compare, it's because you think your tactics are inappropriate, which leads to the destruction of the pill!"
The voice fell.
The Seventh Elder was so angry that his beard trembled and his eyes widened.
This little girl was so eloquent that she made him speechless.
The Seventh Elder glanced at the smiling Princess Ninth, whose eyes were full of relief, and was even more angry.
It's really a maid following the master!
"Well, you savage little girl, just compare, if you lose, you will be a Dantong under the old man for three years, and even the Ninth Princess will not be able to stop you!"
The Seventh Elder looked at the Ninth Princess and said in a deep voice.
"can."
Xiao Minghuang smiled, she didn't think Ye Ruoshui would lose to the Seventh Elder.
"Well, it's settled like that, how do you compare?"
Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang said calmly:
"Seventh Elder, don't worry. If Shui loses, you will be a Dan Tong for the Seventh Elder for three years, but if the Seventh Elder loses, what should you do?"
"Losed? This old man has been immersed in alchemy for more than a hundred years, how could he still lose to this young girl?"
The Seventh Elder said arrogantly, not worried about losing to Ye Ruoshui at all.
