“Eh? Lin Yi went out again?” Chu Mengyao was confused and was about to make the call.
“Don’t call yet …” Chen Yushu suddenly stopped Chu Mengyao.”The car’s at home, so shield bro must be around here. If he’s not at home, he must be at Han Jing Jing’s place. Maybe they’re making pills. Let’s not disturb him.”
Chu Mengyao nodded in surprise. She had to admire Shu’s analysis ability. She could figure out Lin Yi’s whereabouts from the details.
“I’m going to buy some food. ” A flash of anxiousness appeared in Yushu’s eyes, but it was gone as quickly as it came.
“I’ll go with you then?” Mengyao was already out of the villa, so she didn’t mind going out with Yushu again.
“Don’t …” Yushu jumped, subconsciously.
“?”Mengyao asked, confused.
“Ah … I mean, Yaoyao sis, you’d better wait for shield bro at home. Otherwise, he’ll think that we’re kidnapped when he comes back and sees that we’re all gone and his car is gone …” Chen Yushu quickly explained.
“Oh, you’re right. I’ll wait for Lin Yi at home then.” Mengyao said with a nod.
Yushu let out a breath of relief and quickly got in the car, driving Lin Yi’s Grand Cherokee out of Mengyao’s sight …
Chu Mengyao watched the car leave and stood in front of the villa for a long time, frowning. She didn’t know what to think … After a while, she shook her head and walked in.
In a small teahouse near the University town, a young girl sat silently opposite a mysterious old man. Although the young girl was trying her best to remain calm, a faint trace of nervousness could be seen in her eyes …
“What’s the matter? Why isn’t he dead yet?” The old man frowned,”didn’t I ask you to poison it?” How is he still fine and can even talk to the Hidden House Zhao?”
“This …” The young girl hesitated for a moment and said,””He’s a doctor and an Alchemist. He was the one who solved the poisoning incident at first school. He even tasted the poison himself …”
“In other words, this poison has no effect on him, or he has already cured himself?” The old man’s expression softened after hearing this. He then nodded and said,”He didn’t suspect you?”
“I don’t think so … If he was suspicious, he would have suspected that it was the problem with the tea leaves. Maybe there was pesticide on it that wasn’t washed clean?” The young girl said carefully.
“I know.” The old man noncommittally nodded his head, then said, “I’ve already expected this situation,” Wang Yao said.”It’s just a test. It’s easy to poison someone, but the rest is a little troublesome.”
“Oh … Then … Let’s not kill him. It’s quite hard to kill him, and if we can’t kill him properly and expose ourselves, it won’t be fun, right?” The young girl suggested.
“What’s wrong? You can’t bear to?” The old man’s eyes lit up as he looked at the young girl.
“How … How is that possible …” The young girl shook her head innocently,””I’m just afraid that I won’t be able to kill him and I’ll be exposed … You know, he’s very powerful …”
“Hmph, don’t forget who you are!” The old man snorted and threatened,”your life and death are also in my hands. I’m sure you know the consequences of not having the antidote. You’ll die!”
“I … I know …” The young girl nodded silently.
“Forget it. Since he’s so powerful, I’ll use another trick!” The old man said,”this is a bottle of sleeping pills made from the resting grass. There is also an antidote. It will put him to sleep when mixed with tea and rice. It is colorless and odorless. He shouldn’t be able to detect it!” If you take the antidote, you’ll be fine. Otherwise, you’ll fall into a deep sleep too. ”
“Ah … What’s the use of this …” The girl asked curiously.
“Of course it’s useful. After he’s asleep, you can stab him to death.” “He’s a spiritual practitioner,” the old man said indifferently.”When he’s asleep, he doesn’t have true Qi to protect his body. One stab and he’ll die!”
“Ah …” The young girl didn’t expect the old man to come up with such a method.
“Is there a problem?” The old man didn’t give the girl time to answer, but asked directly.
“No… No…” The young girl smiled bitterly and took the rest of the sleeping herb from the old man and carefully put it in her pocket.
“Alright, I’ll be waiting for the good news.” The old man stood up and left the teahouse first, while the young girl sighed with a responsible look. She turned to the waiter and beckoned,””Waiter …”
Lin Yi and han Jingjing finally finished their refinement. The whole process was a success, at least for now. Han Jingjing’s entire process followed her recipe strictly, and the cauldron didn’t show any strange signs. In the end, the cauldron emitted a pleasant aroma, indicating that the ingredients were about to form the pill …
Han Jingjing heaved a sigh of relief.””It’s done, but Jing Jing is a little nervous … I wonder how many Qi circulation pills she can make?”
“Hehe, you’ll win as long as you can make more than three pills.” Lin Yi, on the other hand, was calmer. After all, if han Jingjing could make more than the amount of materials she had, it was already a success. She was a lot better than other refiners.
“Yes, yes, Lin Yi bro always consoled Jing Jing.” Han Jing Jing carefully opened the cauldron and subconsciously counted the number of pills inside.””One, two, three … Seven? It’s actually more than the first ranked pills from before?”
Han Jingjing could not help but exclaim in surprise. Her highest record was already double the number of pills, and this time, she had actually refined more than double the number of pills, especially second grade pills. How could she not be surprised?
“Haha, congratulations, Jing Jing. It seems like you’ve won the first round and are getting more skilled.” Lin Yi didn’t look too excited, but he was actually very happy. Han Jingjing’s skill in refining was the same as Lin Yi’s skill.
“It’s not that Jingjing’s skilled, it’s because Lin Yi bro’s helping her. Otherwise, Jingjing wouldn’t have been able to do it on her own. Not only would she fail, she wouldn’t be able to make seven pills with three sets of materials. ” Han Jing Jing said.
“That’s right. Let’s find some time to make the lesser Qi gathering pills. Let’s hope that these five sets of ingredients can create another miracle and make twelve pills.” Lin Yi said.
“Alright.” Han Jing Jing nodded.
“Let’s recover our true Qi and physical strength first. I’ll be going back after that. I’ve wasted a lot of time making elixirs, and I haven’t told Yaoyao and the others yet. Don’t think that I’m missing.” Lin Yi said.
“En, en.” Han Jingjing listened to everything Lin Yi said, as if she didn’t have her own opinion. (To be continued.)gg
