Trouble comes to your door
The setting sun in the forest, the eyes of ice and fire.
Time is like water, from morning to night, it is just the sun rising and setting.
Night fell again, darkness enveloped the earth, and the area within the Ice and Fire Eyes was once again plunged into darkness.
"Dad, the medicinal materials here are so unpalatable." Xiao Longnu got another rare medicinal plant from somewhere, her mouth rolled, and she said in a vague voice.
She frowned slightly as she swallowed the golden liquid in the medicine again.
Hearing her muttering, Xiao Yan, who was practicing next to him, couldn't help but feel speechless. If Dugu Bo saw her wasting such precious medicinal materials and muttering about how unpalatable it was, he would probably be so angry that smoke would come out of his nostrils, right?
I saw Xiao Yan getting up, twisting his sore neck, squatting down in front of Xiao Longnu, a very soft smile appeared on his face, and said softly: "If these medicinal materials are unpalatable, daddy will make them for you."
Is it okay to make it into pills?”
"Okay, thank you, dad." After hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Longnu's chewing mouth stopped slightly, her big icy blue and red eyes suddenly brightened a little, and she nodded her little head happily.
Although these medicinal materials of Ice and Fire Eyes contain extremely pure medicinal power, if they are eaten raw, the taste will not be much better.
As the regenerated body of the little dragon girl after the fusion of the remnant souls of the ice and fire dragon kings, in the eyes of the ice and fire yin created by the energy of the corpses of the two dragon kings, there is naturally no taboo. The conflicting ice and fire energy around them, if it were other people, stay here.
It won't be long before he explodes and dies.
But for this little guy, it has no impact at all.
Refining elixirs is an extremely tedious task, but if you just refine a medicinal material into the shape of a pill and add a little bit of ingredients to make it delicious, it doesn't take Xiao Yan much effort.
"Dad, this is for you." Xiao Longnu threw the medicinal materials in her hand towards Xiao Yan and said crisply.
After taking the medicinal materials, Xiao Yan nodded with a smile and waved his hand to summon the medicinal cauldron. With his palm waved, a wisp of green flame formed on his fingertips.
Just as he was about to put the green flame in his hand into the medicine cauldron, he was shocked to find that the little dragon girl on the side was looking for medicinal materials everywhere again. Looking at her petite back, Xiao Yan was slightly startled, and he felt a little confused.
"Xiao Xiao...this name feels so familiar."
"Forget it, don't think about it anymore, let's make pills for this little guy first." Xiao Yan comforted himself with a smile, and then threw the flame in his hand into the medicine cauldron.
After the flames roasted the medicine cauldron for a while, Xiao Yan casually threw the medicinal materials in his hand and waved his palm lightly, and the raging flames immediately started violently churning inside the medicine cauldron.
This simple refining is not too complicated. All you need to do is control the flames in the medicine cauldron, and it does not require Xiao Yan to expend too much energy.
While refining, Xiao Yan was distracted and turned his attention to the little dragon girl beside him. She was holding a piece of fairy grass in her hand at the moment. She didn't know where she dug it out.
This is a blood-red flower that looks very ordinary. Its shape is like a peony. Its whole body is shockingly red, and the blood-red color makes it look a bit thrilling.
After obtaining this fairy grass, the faint scent of a spirit beast on Xiao Longnu's body disappeared.
At the same time, thousands of miles away in the Star Forest, the silver scales in Di Tian's hand that exuded a faint light also disappeared at this moment.
"Eh? Where did you get this fairy grass? Do you want me to help you refine it into pills?" Xiao Yan glanced at the medicinal materials in the medicine cauldron that were gradually fused under the heat of the strange fire, and casually
asked.
"Dad, I just dug it in the medicine garden." Xiao Longnu curled her legs, folded her hands on her knees, bit her lips tightly with her neat white teeth, and murmured: "I really like this grass.
, I want to keep it with me, so I won’t refine it into pills, hehe.”
"Okay then." Xiao Yan muttered, waved his palm lightly, and a cloud of powder fell into the medicine cauldron, and immediately merged with the golden viscous liquid in it.
Soon, the golden yellow liquid in the medicine cauldron gradually separated, and finally turned into dozens of tiny liquid masses.
"Dancheng, condense it for me!"
With a soft drink, the liquid in the medicine cauldron solidified rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it turned into dozens of golden pills, spinning inside.
"Xiao Xiao, I have refined your pills." Looking at the pills emitting golden light in the medicine cauldron, Xiao Yan waved his hand lightly, and these dozens of golden pills emitted a golden glow.
Light shot out from it and finally fell into Xiao Yan's palm.
"Here, you try it first. The taste of this should be much better than if you take the medicinal materials raw." Xiao Yan said with a smile as he handed the pill pill in his hand to the side and looked at his little dragon girl eagerly.
"Thank you, Daddy. Daddy is great!" Nodding her head repeatedly, Xiao Longnu quickly took the elixir from Xiao Yan's hand, then threw it all into her mouth and chewed it vigorously.
"It's delicious, Daddy, do you have any more?" After a few mouthfuls, she chewed up all the elixirs in her hands and swallowed them. Xiao Longnu licked her mouth and looked at Xiao Yan eagerly again.
"..." Several black lines suddenly appeared on Xiao Yan's head.
The next second, Xiao Yan nodded dumbfounded, then rubbed the cute little dragon girl's head vigorously, and said with a smile: "I will refine some more pills for you, but you have to slow down.
eat."
"Okay, daddy." After hearing this, Xiao Longnu was immediately happy and sat down in front of Xiao Yan, her big ice blue and red eyes filled with anticipation.
"By the way, after I refine the pills for you later, daddy is going out for a trip. You have to be good here alone and don't run around." Xiao Yan waved his hand and said weakly.
"Yeah." Xiao Longnu giggled and stuck out her tongue at Xiao Yan.
Looking at the little dragon girl sitting in front of him, Xiao Yan shook his head and smiled bitterly. He felt that this little girl was really cute. With a slight shake of his hand, a wisp of green flame condensed and formed on his fingertips.
In the quiet eyes of Binghuo Liangyi, the green flame passed through the medicinal cauldron and was reflected on the surrounding mountain walls. It was rising and dancing like an evil beast with its teeth and claws. As the flames rose, the medicinal materials placed in front of Xiao Yan were being
Rapidly shrinking.
Time passed quickly in refining, and after spending several more hours, Xiao Yan finally refined several hundred pills for Xiao Longnu.
Then, while Xiao Longnu was addicted to taking pills, he quietly rose up and flew towards the eyes of Binghuo Liangyi.
Xiao Yan, who had long been planning to return to Tiandou City to sell elixirs and raise funds to establish an academy, was delayed again and again by the appearance of Xiao Longnu, and now he was finally able to leave.
In the distant sky, a purple stream of light, like chasing stars and chasing the moon, instantly crossed the sky and flew towards Tiandou City standing in the west of Sunset Forest.
Getting closer and closer to Tiandou City, squinting at the huge city outline and the white fish belly emerging on the horizon, Xiao Yan breathed out softly: "We are finally here. After selling these pills in my hand,
, just go find Brother Xue."
When he was still a few hundred meters away from Tiandou City, Xiao Yan's flying speed gradually slowed down, his body trembled slightly, and the Ziyun Wings behind him emitted a burst of lavender light, slowly contracted, and finally transformed into
It's a tattoo and it's affixed to my back.
His body flipped in mid-air, and Xiao Yan stood firmly on the ground with both feet. After lightly patting the dust on his clothes, he ran towards Tiandou City that appeared at the end of his sight.
After entering Tiandou City, Xiao Yan carefully walked around the auction house, then quietly sneaked to a hidden corner, took out the black robe from the soul guide and put it on.
After the black robe completely wrapped his figure, he slowly walked into the auction house.
Since the last time Xiao Yan came to the auction house to sell elixirs, the people at the auction house had arranged spies at the door. So this time Xiao Yan just arrived and was respectfully led to the waiting room by a delicate maid who had been waiting at the door.
living room.
Sitting silently on the chair, Xiao Yan picked up the tea cup on the table next to him and took a sip. He glanced sideways at the timid maid next to him. An old voice came from the black robe: "You are in charge of the appraisal and evaluation.
Why hasn’t the teacher come yet?”
"Ah?" Startled by the sudden voice, the maid secretly glanced at Xiao Yan, who was shrouded in black robes. Her body trembled slightly, her originally rosy face turned slightly white, and she replied with some anxiety in her heart.
: "Sir, the supervisor and appraiser are on their way."
Seeing that the maid was very afraid of herself, Xiao Yan couldn't help but wonder, he shouldn't be so scary, right?
Xiao Yan doesn't know that the maids here belong to the auction house themselves, including their chastity of life. They are not only the waiters here, but also part of the auction. If anyone is willing to pay, they can also be auctioned.
This is also the reason why this maid is afraid of Xiao Yan. If she is bought back by an old man, life will not be easy in the future.
Shaking his head helplessly, Xiao Yan could only continue to look like a master.
Standing aside with her head bowed, the maid looked at Xiao Yan who did not speak any more, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. The supervisor of the auction house solemnly told him that if necessary, he must meet any request of this adult who can refine elixirs.
.
Including extremely excessive demands.
After the maid stood nervously beside Xiao Yan for a few minutes, the sudden sound of footsteps outside the door finally made the stone hanging in her heart fall.
"Haha, my lord, you are finally here. Since your elixir was auctioned back by Ning Zongzong of Qibao Glazed Sect a few days ago, all the major forces on the mainland have come to the auction house recently to buy your elixir.
Pill." As he walked slowly into the waiting room, the person who came was none other than Manager Xue from the Tiandou Auction House. Xiao Yan had met him once when he was settling the payment for the pill auction last time.
I heard that this guy's backstage is the royal family of the Tiandou Empire.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan did not say anything more, but took out a dozen jade bottles from the soul guide and gently placed them on the table.
Manager Xue took two steps forward, carefully picked up the jade bottle, held it up and sniffed it gently, and then handed it to the appraiser beside him.
After taking the white jade bottle, the appraiser at the auction house inspected it carefully and said with a little surprise: "It is the same batch of pills as the last Foundation Establishment Pill. There should be nothing wrong with it. I just need to take a sample and test it later."
.”
Hearing the confirmation from the appraiser next to him, Manager Xue raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Sir, I haven't seen you for a few days. I didn't expect you to bring such a big business to our auction house."
"When can we auction it? I need money urgently now." Under the bloated black robe, Xiao Yan made an old voice.
"Oh? Sir, are you in urgent need of money now? If it is not too urgent, I suggest that I promote it to you for a day or two. Now all the major forces want to buy this foundation-building pill for the younger generation of their sects.
"
"If you can do some publicity first to whet your appetite, I think your final profit will be even greater..." Manager Xue asked tentatively.
It has to be said that the publicity effect of the Tiandou Auction House is indeed very powerful. Since Ning Fengzhi bought the Foundation Establishment Pill and gave it to the disciples of the sect, it has indeed played a role in raising the level of innate soul power by one level, and his cultivation speed has accelerated.
