Chapter 32: The Death of Chen Xian

The atmosphere in the alchemy hall was the same as before, and Li Que was still researching his bombs and destroying the alchemy furnace of the alchemy hall regardless of the time.

Xiao Junyue asked for a secluded corner, away from that lunatic Li Que, to refine his most familiar elixir with peace of mind.The prepared medicinal materials have been completely extracted, Xiao Junyue took a deep breath, and began to try to melt the pill.Tried the same thing carefully, watching the embryos in the pill furnace take shape, Xiao Junyue was not happy but became more nervous.

He carefully controlled the heat, letting the spirit of wood surround the elixir and the spirit of fire roasted.The surface of the medicine embryo gradually became smooth, and a circle of inconspicuous pill patterns appeared on the surface of the elixir.

Xiao Junyue only felt that the spiritual energy in his whole body was going to be sucked clean, he gritted his teeth and persisted until the last moment of Dan Cheng.The aura floating around the medicine stove began to be slowly absorbed by the spirit pill. The surface of the spirit pill was as smooth as jade, and a gleam of light flashed by, and the pill was completed.

"Huh, I'm so tired." Xiao Junyue grabbed the elixir with one hand, exhausted his physical strength, and sat down on the ground directly.The elixir he refined was called Zhuji Pill, but it was only first grade.It is a common elixir chosen by most alchemist apprentices during their examinations. Xiao Junyue originally only had the attitude of giving it a try, but he did not expect it to be successful.In this way, he can be regarded as a first-grade pharmacist, and Qian Jun will be very happy to know about it.

There was a responsible elder in the alchemy room patrolling. When he walked to Xiao Junyue's side and saw Xiao Junyue sitting on the ground, he shook his head and pretended not to see him, and turned to look at the next person.Because Xiao Junyue has a history of frying furnaces, most of the elders who are not familiar with him are like this, and Xiao Junyue gets used to it after seeing more.

He quietly put his elixir into the token, and did not show any abnormality.It's not that he doesn't want to show off that he has become a first-grade pharmacist, but it's not enough, he wants to create a little more sensation.It's no big deal for a first-rank pharmacist in the foundation building period, but if it's a second-rank or third-rank alchemist, the effect will be different.

After regaining some physical strength, Xiao Junyue shook the ashes on his robes, gave a junior salute to the patrolling elders, and couldn't wait to go back and share the good news with Qian Jun.

Li Que, who seemed to be studying the bomb, followed Xiao Junyue closely when he went out, and when Xiao Junyue disappeared at the end of the bluestone slab, Li Que also left quickly.He came like a gust of wind, and went without a trace.When the inspecting elders didn't hear the sound of the fryer, they realized that he had long since disappeared.

Zhuohua had nothing to do today, so he went to Zhuiyun Xianju to play chess with Qianjun. The weather has improved recently, and there is warm sunshine in the afternoon.Zhuohua moved the chessboard to the gazebo outside, warmed a pot of tea and drank with Qianjun.

When Xiao Junyue came in rashly, Zhuo Hua was discussing with Qian Jun how his alchemy progress was.Hearing that he had become a pill, both of them opened their eyes wide in surprise.

Zhuohua was not an outsider, so Xiao Junyue naturally did not avoid suspicion, and directly took out the elixir from the token and handed it to Qian Jun.

"The apprentice hasn't learned how to distinguish the quality of the elixir, so I have to ask the master to help test it."

With Cheng Dan in hand, it proves that Xiao Junyue is not lying.Gan Jun patted his head happily, and praised: "Quality is second, you have learned the skill of melting alchemy now, and I am very happy to be a teacher."

"It's my honor to make Master happy. However, I have something to ask for, and I hope Master will not tell me about my Chengdan. I don't want to show off yet." Xiao Junyue clasped his fists and bowed, with a respectful attitude.

If other people saw this scene, they might say that Xiao Junyue is more modest, but Qian Jun and Xiao Junyue have lived together for so long, and they understand the small thoughts in his heart, and feel that he is naive and cute, so he smiled and agreed to help him hide it.

Seeing his master nodding, Xiao Jun laughed more and said: "Thank you master in advance, I will not disturb my uncle and master if I have something to do today."

But Xiao Junyue, who was already disturbed, ignored Zhuohua's dissatisfied face and went out happily.

Qian Jun smiled dotingly, picked up the pill inadvertently, and wanted to know the quality of the pill that Xiao Junyue practiced.When he came into contact with the faint circle of pill patterns on the Zhuji Pill, the smile on Qian Jun's face disappeared without a trace, and turned into an indescribable shock.

Zhuo Hua was adding tea to Qian Jun, seeing him shocked, he asked in surprise: "What's wrong? But what's the problem."

Qian Jun shook his head, handed the pill to Zhuo Hua and said, "You can see for yourself."

Zhuohua only took a glance to understand why Qian Jun was shocked, even he himself was surprised, with an unbelievable expression on his face.

"He was still at the stage of frying the furnace..." Zhuo Hua muttered to himself, and Qian Jun exchanged glances, both of them could see the fear in each other's eyes.

Xiao Junyue who walked out without knowing that he had left a big trouble for Qian Jun and Zhuo Hua, was leisurely wandering around Beimingzong.He made an appointment with Zhou Wei for a trip today, but it's not yet the appointed time, so he had to hang out by himself.

The footsteps of early spring are approaching, the ice and snow in Beimingzong have melted, and the mountains are green.The lake that flows around Beimingzong is crystal clear, and a few river fish emerge from time to time, playing with each other.Surrounded by a scene full of vitality, the clear and melodious singing of spirit birds echoed in the mountains.

Xiao Junyue walked aimlessly, passed Jinghu Mountain unknowingly, and arrived at the hunting area.Today's morning class is over, the formation here is closed, and only the chirping of spirit beasts in the forest is left.

Xiao Junyue knew he had gone to the wrong place, and was about to turn around and leave, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone passing through the forest.The figure of that person was very similar to that of Chen Xian, which immediately aroused Xiao Junyue's curiosity.

Although the animal hunting area is not a forbidden area of ​​the Northern Ming Sect, due to its nature, few people come here, and even if there are, they come in groups of three or four to complete the mission of the master.

This person who looked like Chen Xian appeared so suddenly, Xiao Junyue only thought for a moment in place, and then decisively followed, forgetting about the agreement with Zhou Wei.

Following the trail of the person passing by, Xiao Junyue approached him in a short while.It's just that the other party was busy on their way and didn't notice being followed.As they got closer, Xiao Junyue could see the other person's appearance clearly, it was Chen Xian who was right.

Why did Chen Xian appear here?He also looked in a hurry.Questions instantly occupied Xiao Junyue's brain, he hesitated for a moment, and continued to follow.Xiao Junyue would do such a thing not because he wanted to satisfy his curiosity, but because Chen Xian's abnormality touched the sensitive nerve in Xiao Junyue's mind - the incident of Tongtianqiao was a thorn in Xiao Junyue's heart, and he dared not forget it. .

Chen Xian's speed was getting faster and faster, Xiao Junyue didn't dare to get too close, so he had to watch from a distance, making sure he wouldn't lose track.The further Chen Xian walked in, the forest became denser and denser.Towering ancient trees covered the sky and the sun, the light in the forest began to dim, and the auras of many high-level spirit beasts lurked around.

After a cup of tea, Chen Xian's speed finally slowed down. He bent down and got into a cave. As soon as Xiao Junyue followed, he heard Chen Xian's voice coming from inside.

"You are finally willing to see me."

Chen Xian's voice was a little excited, making Xiao Junyue curious about who was meeting him.But there was no place to hide in this cave, Xiao Junyue didn't dare to go in rashly, fearing being noticed by others, so he had to hold back his curiosity and hide outside to eavesdrop.

"What are you looking for?" The person who answered Chen Xian had a very cold attitude, his voice was disguised, and it sounded a little distorted.

"Why did you ask me? Is it just the thing you promised me?" Chen Xian raised his voice and said, "You promised me that as long as I help you push Xiao Junyue down, you can make me the head of the sect." Disciple, what is the result? I was cut down in seniority and ridiculed by others. As for Xiao Junyue, if you want the wind, you can get the rain."

"I promised you to be the master's disciple, but I didn't say that you could hurt Xiao Junyue so that he could not worship the master as his teacher."

Chen Xian's words seemed to touch the opponent's back, these words sounded gloomy and cold, Xiao Junyue couldn't help shivering.He learned by accident that there was another reason for his fall from the Tongtian Bridge, and he felt chills and furious at the same time.Who is this group of people who are planning behind the scenes, and what is the purpose of all their calculations against him?

Xiao Junyue can't wait to rush out to question now, but fortunately his rationality is not lost, he knows that he can only hit a stone with an egg when he rushes out now.And he also really wanted to know what secrets Chen Xian could vomit.

"It's impossible for you not to know that Tongtian Bridge is a forbidden area. Since he entered the forbidden area, how could he not be injured or expelled?" Chen Xian sneered: "Don't use Xiao Junyue as a shield, I know your secret, you are If you want to use living people as sacrifices to probe the eyes of the Sealed Demon King, you... ah!"

Before Chen Xian finished speaking, it turned into a scream, and Xiao Junyue's nerves tensed up, thinking that a mysterious person had killed Chen Xian.

"Ahem, why, are you unhappy when I stepped on the pain?" After a while, Chen Xian's voice sounded again, this time without the usual arrogance, a little weak, but he was still angry: "You guys Don't blame me for being cruel if you don't fulfill your promise, aren't you planning to use Xiao Junyue as a cover? Then I'll take him..."

Chen Xian's voice stopped abruptly, and another cold voice sounded: "He is useless, keeping him is only a disaster, kill him!"

There was more than one person who met Chen Xian, Xiao Junyue broke out in a cold sweat, thankful that he didn't rush in recklessly just now.Chen Xian was afraid that bad luck would be worse than good luck, but Xiao Junyue was a little unwilling.There is only one breakthrough for him, Chen Xian, if Chen Xian died, he would have no clue.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Junyue gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision.He bet that the people inside were guilty of guilt and did not dare to stay for long, so they deliberately made noises, and then flew up the tree, using the lush leaves to hide.

"Who?"

Sure enough, the person inside shouted, and immediately two people covered in cloaks came out.The two inspected each other, and one of them said: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's go separately."

The other person nodded in reply, and the two of them ran away in different directions, and soon disappeared into the forest.

Xiao Junyue was worried about being cheated, so he stiffened his back and waited for a while on the tree. Seeing no one came back, he dared to go down the tree to rescue Chen Xian in the cave.He thought that according to the plot in the book, Chen Xian would die at his hands in the end, and this time he would not die.

But what he didn't expect was that the plot changed again. Those two people were not only cold but also cruel. From the moment they said they wanted to kill someone to the moment Xiao Junyue made a noise in the blink of an eye, Chen Xian's neck had been twisted, and he died thoroughly.

The former enemy was now lying dead in front of him, his eyes widened in despair and he refused to close his eyes, and there was still an expression of unbelievable horror on his face.Faced with death for the first time, Xiao Junyue's face turned pale and his body trembled slightly.He took a deep breath to calm his beating heart, squatted down and closed Chen Xian's eyes.

Once Chen Xian died, the clues were completely broken.Xiao Junyue only got one piece of useful information, that is, he is a sacrifice or a pawn, and someone wants to use him to play against Bei Mingzong.

This cave is closed and confined, it is a good place to bury bones, Xiao Junyue closed Chen Xian's eyes and was about to leave.He turned around to leave, but he heard a sound at the entrance of the cave, and a group of people rushed in hastily.The leader who had blood on his face was still wet, and blood was flowing from the sword in his hand. He was as embarrassed as the people behind him, and many of them were even seriously injured.

After they entered the cave, they saw Xiao Junyue was taken aback, and looked down to see Chen Xian who was lying on the ground, and suddenly understood what happened, his face was as pale as paper.

The leading disciple didn't even care about the situation behind him, pointed his blood-stained long sword straight at Xiao Junyue's throat, and said sharply, "Who are you from? How dare you kill your fellow disciple in Beimingzong."

The author has something to say: no comments and no motivation, I have been off for too long, have you all abandoned me? (bites the handkerchief)
