Great Song

"When Daoist Zhen was ten years old, his father passed away and his mother remarried. Xu was not tolerated by his new family, so he was sent to a small temple in the mountains to be a Taoist boy. Later, due to the poor management of the Taoist temple, the Taoists scattered, and he went to the scene of Tianxi Town with his senior brother. Yangguan. After not staying for a year, I went to Changchun Temple under the order of the master of the temple..."

Needless to say, what happened after that was naturally taken back home by him.Han Miao pondered for a moment, then asked, "Is Jingjingguan the famous Guanyu?"

"It's not famous." The follower who went to inquire about the news thought for a while, and added, "Recently, he started selling tofu soup, which is very popular among the villagers."

Han Miao nodded slightly and let the entourage go down.He waited until there was no one in the room before he sighed softly, something was really wrong.

After returning from the kiln, Han Miao sent someone to find out about Zhen Qiong's life experience.What kind of secrets can there be on a country trail?After three or two clicks, he was checked out.His background and the Taoist temples he has been to are also clear, and there is absolutely no possibility of impersonation.

Only in this way, it became more and more strange.It’s just like white sugar and flower dew, the preparation method is simple, as long as you find the trick, it’s not too difficult.It is not surprising that Zhen Qiong said that he came up with it himself.

But glass is different.This is a well-known treasure, and it will not be cheap anywhere.And Zhen Qiong has never made glass, but has only learned how to make glass. Even if she has the goods in her stomach, she is extremely unfamiliar with it.But the question is, if there is a Taoist temple that has mastered this secret method, and even has a clear understanding of kiln changes, will it go bankrupt due to poor management, or make a living by buying tofu soup?

He can be sure that there is no such method in Changchun Guanli.And the two places where Zhen Qiong stayed before did not seem to be places where glass could be made.Where did what he knew come from?

A fairy with extremely high alchemy skills who lives in seclusion in the mountains?Or, like his lie, is it purely God-given?

These two possibilities circled in my mind, and a series of thoughts came to me in a moment.For some reason, Han Miao felt that the person who took the path home was no different from the villager who stole the feather clothes and made the fairy fall into the mortal world.Suddenly realizing that there was something wrong with this idea, Han Miao couldn't help but shook his head and gave a wry smile.What a baby.

If he had noticed this half a year ago, maybe he would have done something.But now, Han Miao couldn't treat Zhen Qiong like this.This path is innocent and innocent, like new snow on the ground, unaware of the dangers of the world, and ignorant of the ways of the world.Rather than letting him stumble outside and be deceived by others, it is better to raise him at home and let him take care of him.Those abilities that are different from ordinary people, it is better to let outsiders know less.

It's just that it's really wrong to have dirty thoughts about such a strange person.Could it be that the mourning time was too long, which made him a little confused?

Han Miao sighed secretly and made a decision.Forget it, in the future, I should stop tricking him into indulgence in vulgar things, and think of ways to make money.Since he likes to practice Taoism, let him devote himself to alchemy.As for the others, there is always myself to help him.

How did Zhen Qiong know Han Miao's tortuous thoughts.After ordering out the most common stained glass, red, yellow, blue and green, he shook his sleeves and left the kiln without nostalgia.

In the past few months of developing glass, he has really benefited a lot, and he has learned a lot of "water and fire" methods by analogy.It seems that what Master said back then is not true, the "Water and Fire School" is still somewhat mysterious, and it is also very useful for the study of gold and stone.Anyway, no one cares about him now, maybe I can try it in the future?

But for glass, Zhen Qiong has lost interest in further research.Not to mention that this subject is too big and doesn't fit well with my own research direction. Even if I really spend my whole life on research, wouldn't the result be something that predecessors have already made?Useless for his avenue.Anyway, a set of containers for dispensing medicines is enough, and it can be replenished anytime and anywhere in the future. This project is considered complete.

Returning to the Han Mansion with a bunch of glass wares in his arms, he had to go to pay homage to Daguan Han.Perhaps it was the pile of stained glass that really made him happy, and Zhen Qiong actually found that her life in the mansion was much easier.Not to mention the usual materials, Han Miao also agreed to apply for some gold, silver, and cupronickel for purification.

Hey, it seems that he is still shrewd. This kind of project that is worth money at first glance is really right!

It has been delayed for a long time and I haven't been able to make alchemy properly. Seeing that Han Miao has become busy recently and doesn't ask him to study rose water, Zhen Qiong doesn't care so much, so she falls headlong into the alchemy room.

■

Han Miao has been really busy recently.Seeing that the end of the year is approaching, he has to take care of all the family affairs.The trial production of rose water is also quite smooth, and the opening of a store in Tokyo next year is also on the agenda.It's just that no matter how busy she is, she still has to go home to pay her respects to her grandmother every day. The reason why there are fewer visits to the alchemy room is because she still doesn't want to disturb Zhen Qiong's cultivation.

It's just that without such a person, life becomes boring again.But Han Miao also knew that he couldn't lose his sense of proportion just because he was interesting.

Fortunately, near the end of the year, another long-awaited person returned to Anyang.

"Brother! Why are you still here to pick me up?" Before entering the city, Han Xia was really surprised to see her elder brother.Immediately dismounted and went up to meet him.

"It just happened to be out of the city." Han Miao would not admit that he came here specially to pick him up. He took his younger brother to look at him for a long time before nodding his head slightly, "You really look capable."

Hearing her brother's praise, Han Xia couldn't help but her eyes turned red: "My little brother is not filial, he should have been studying behind closed doors at home and mourning for his father..."

"Father left the book back then, just because he didn't want you to interrupt your studies. You are a filial piety if you devote yourself to studying." How could Han Miao not know his thoughts, and patted Han Xia's shoulder comfortingly.

For the family of merchants, mourning has never been a problem that needs to be dealt with harshly.Han Miao knew what his father really cared about, and he gave up the idea of ​​becoming an official. After the funeral, he took up the family business.His younger brother wanted to obtain fame. In order not to delay his studies, his father specially left a letter before his death, asking him to take the letter to find the head of Yuelu Academy.It is precisely because of this that Han Xia went to Tanzhou in the middle of the filial piety period, and with a little love and intelligence, he entered that famous school.

Now it's only a few months before the server is full, and he will be able to participate in the solution test as usual next autumn.

The elder brother's smile is just like his father's.Han Xia only felt tears welling up, and nodded heavily.He studied hard all day in the college and never had fun, just to repay his father and brother and get a fame!

Knowing his younger brother's temperament well, Han Miao didn't say much, and took people back to the mansion to meet his grandmother.Mrs. Han also hasn't seen her little grandson for a year, and she always feels that she has lost weight, and she has suffered so much outside, so distressed and crying.It was Han Miao who persuaded the old grandmother, and the family of three sat down and had a good feast.

After finishing the meal, Mrs. Han took her little grandson's hand again, and asked about the past year's experience.Although Han Xia doesn't have the eloquence of his elder brother, he still knows how to be filial to his grandmother and not let her worry.Therefore, covering up all the experiences of hard study and studying, and only talking about anecdotes about the academy, Mrs. Han was relieved.

After hearing her grandson's words, Mrs. Han finally felt relieved, and said that the gods and Buddhas bless her, and she also mentioned that the family raised a fairy boy, who not only saved her, but also protected the family besides the demon way.When Han Xia heard about this for the first time, she was a little surprised: "The grandma's benefactor should also be visited by the grandson."

Mrs. Han nodded in agreement: "It's time to see you! Miao'er, on New Year's Eve this year, we must invite the Taoist priest to have a meal together."

Han Miao had no objection to this order.Zhen Qiong can be regarded as a person who has no father and no mother now. It is not good to let him stay alone in the alchemy room on New Year's Eve.

Smiling and nodding, he didn't order anyone to invite Zhen Qiong, but took his younger brother to the alchemy room in the west courtyard.Han Ya could not have imagined that this alchemy room was so remote, and couldn't help being surprised: "Isn't Daoist Zhen our family's benefactor? Why do you live here?"

Han Miao said with a smile: "He likes alchemy, so he chose a quiet place. He doesn't see many people on weekdays."

In the past few days, he went out especially less, and Anping also said that he didn't eat and sleep well, what happened?

Han Xia immediately understood, and also erected an image of a master of Taoism in his heart.Therefore, when Zhen Qiong appeared with messy hair and two dark circles under his eyes, he didn't mind, and immediately fell to the ground and made a big gift: "Boy Han Xia, I have met the Taoist priest. Thank you Taoist priest for saving my grandmother. "

Zhen Qiong had just guarded the alchemy furnace all night, and at this moment her eyes were dazzled, she never thought that the little guy brought by Han Miao would directly kneel down and salute, and almost jumped up in fright.

It wasn't until the person stood up that he came to his senses. He took out something from his sleeve and handed it over: "I didn't bring anything with me. Let this be a gift."

Han Xia: "..."

How is this going?Shane still has gifts?This priest looks younger than him, why does he look like an elder?

Han Miao barely suppressed the corners of his upturned lips, and said to his younger brother who was still in a daze, "Since it is a gift from Daoist Zhen, please accept it."

You have to listen to your elder brother's words. Han Xia took the thing with a dull expression and put it in his sleeve.

Only then did Zhen Qiong breathe a sigh of relief, Han Daguanren's younger brother, after all, is also a junior.After receiving a big gift from others, it seems a bit unreasonable not to give some gifts for meeting.Fortunately, when the stove was burning these two days, he carried a small gadget to relieve his boredom, otherwise he didn't know what to give.

Seeing the awkward scene, Han Miao changed the topic with a smile: "What have you been up to lately?"

"That is to smelt alum. There must be metal in this thing, but I have tried seventeen or eight methods, but none of them have achieved significant results. I am doing a comparative experiment these two days, and it seems that I can replace it with acid... By the way, then The set of balances is really good, the measurement is accurate, and it is so useful!" When it came to her subject, Zhen Qiong immediately became energetic, and it was a crackling introduction.

This is his real research direction!Back then, Chunyangzi smelted evil copper from white copper, and Fuyaozi found platinum from gold. This ability to discover new things and use nature is the way of their "Golden Stone School"!It's just that this subject is too complicated, and he doesn't know how long it will take with his own efforts.

Han Xia: "..."

He obviously heard what the Taoist leader said, why couldn't he understand a word?Han Xia looked at her elder brother in embarrassment, but saw that the smile on Han Miao's face remained unchanged, and said: "Alchemy is important, and the body should not be neglected. Anping, go and boil some hot water, and serve Taoist Zhen to take a bath."

As he said that, he turned his head and said to Zhen Qiong: "Wash up early today and go to bed, and it won't be too late to practice tomorrow."

This is not persuasion at all, but an order.However, hungry and sleepy, Zhen Qiong was dizzy and didn't know how to refuse that spring-like smile.Anyway, the pill furnace has just been turned off, maybe it's okay to start it again tomorrow?He nodded blankly, and was sent to rest by Anping.

Han Xia watched from the side, feeling a little strange in his heart.How could this be an attitude towards a benefactor?Why are you more concerned about your own brother than yourself?Although his elder brother is smiling all day long, there are very few people who can treat him sincerely.What is the origin of this little Daoist?

Watching Zhen Qiong's slanted back disappear, Han Miao sighed. How could he think that this path could be tossed like this in only half a month. It seems that he will have to watch him eat and sleep on time in the future.Originally, he thought that Zhen Qiong would forget to sleep and eat when he was making glass, but he didn't expect that once he delved into alchemy, he would become like a demon.

Turning his head, Han Miao met his younger brother's eyes full of doubts, and all his thoughts were immediately concentrated in his heart.Smiling slightly, he asked, "What did Daoist Zhen send you?"

The author has something to say: Daoist Zhen: I have already brought people to kowtow to myself, how could I not give a meeting ceremony.

Han Miao: ... (smiling)

Han Xia: ... (sluggish)

Evil copper is nickel, and platinum is naturally platinum.Hey, if the Taoist leader wants to purify it, keep it secret first =w=
