The Rise of the Shen Family

Chapter 701 Help you

After Li Ningshang left shyly, only Shen Ruiling and Yao Lao were left on the small island in the middle of the lake, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Oh, this girl's temper is getting bigger and bigger. How will she get married in the future?

Yao Lao slightly turned his head to look at the figure of the girl who was about to disappear on the lake, then raised the wine gourd in his hand, took a sip, and murmured melancholy.

After hearing this, Shen Ruiling couldn't help showing a strange look on his face, and slightly raised his head to look at Yao Lao, as if he was surprised why the other party said that.

On this side, Yao Lao naturally noticed the strange gaze cast by Shen Ruiling, and an amiable smile immediately appeared on his vicissitudes old face.

I'll make you laugh, little friend

After finishing speaking, he raised the wine gourd in his hand again, poured a sip into the mouth full of yellow teeth, and involuntarily paid attention to Shen Ruiling's performance from time to time.

No, it's not that the junior was rude just now.

I saw that Shen Ruiling hurriedly cupped his hands and replied, and a look of extreme embarrassment appeared on his face again.

After seeing this scene, Yao Lao slowly put down the wine gourd in his hand, and looked at Shen Ruiling with a half-smile.

I don't know why the little friend came here today?

Faced with the inquiry, Shen Ruiling's face immediately became serious, and he bowed respectfully and saluted:

The junior came here today to ask the senior to refine a pot of elixir.

Hearing this, Yao Lao couldn't help but look up at him, and a look of surprise flashed in those cloudy eyes.

Oh? Let the old man make alchemy?

Speaking of which, he has been in Shen's house for more than a year, and he has been staying on Linghu Peak for more than a year, drinking and drinking wine leisurely all day long, making jokes about his apprentice, Life is extremely comfortable.

And for more than a year, no one from the Shen family came to him a few times, let alone asked him to help.

The only time when Shen Huanchi went to Qingyunmen, he came to him once before he left, asking him to help take care of the family. If the former unfortunately dies, I hope he can take action to preserve the inheritance of the Shen family.

But apparently this was of no help, because Shen Huanchi finally returned to Yunbifeng safely.

But this time, Shen Ruiling suddenly came to ask him to make alchemy, which really surprised him. After all, the former's level of alchemy was considered top-notch in this Lingnan land, and there were only a few panaceas that he could not refine.

But no matter what level of panacea is refined,

As long as the other party came to the door, he was happy to see it.

Here, Shen Ruiling bowed to Yao Lao sincerely again and said:

Exactly, I hope that the seniors can help!

Little friend, you are welcome. Since the old man has served as the elder of the Ke Qing, the matter of alchemy is naturally a matter of his duty.

I saw that Yao Lao shook his head slightly, then took another sip of his drink, and said with a full face.

I don't know what panacea my little friend is going to refine?

Senior, please take a look!

After finishing speaking, Shen Ruiling took out the [Building Foundation Pill] pill formula from his sleeve, and presented it in front of Yao Lao.

Yao Lao glanced at the cyan jade slip in his hand, and with a sweep of consciousness, he saw clearly the contents of the pill prescription, and a look of seriousness appeared on his ruddy face.

After a while, he whispered slowly and softly:

This kind of old-fashioned formula is rare.

Hearing this, Shen Ruiling couldn't help being stunned for a moment, a little puzzled, but he didn't ask casually, but waited quietly for the other party.

After Yao Lao had seen the formula of [Building Foundation Pill], his eyes fell on Shen Ruiling again, and his white eyebrows frowned slightly for some reason.

According to the old man, although this alchemy formula is a bit more complicated, it is only a third-rank high-grade one. With my current level of alchemy, I should be able to make alchemy by myself, right?

Faced with Yao Lao's rhetorical question, Shen Ruiling's deep eyes flashed a strange color, and after pondering for a while, he slowly answered:

This junior is currently only 50% sure of refining this pill. It is not easy for the family to gather these elixirs, so they dare not try to open a furnace to make pills lightly.

Hearing this, Yao Lao immediately smiled, nodded slowly and said:

I see.

Before Shen Ruiling could speak again, he slowly walked out of the pavilion and came to Shen Ruiling's side.

Little friend, come with me!

As soon as the words fell, Yao Lao's figure flew out directly, heading towards an attic by the lake.

Seeing this situation, Shen Ruiling hastily tiptoed and jumped up to follow.

In just a few breaths, the two of them crossed half of the lake, from the small island in the middle of the lake to the shore, and walked slowly towards the quiet attic standing by the shore.

Girl, let me borrow your alchemy room for my teacher.

I saw that Yao Lao yelled towards the medicine garden not far away, regardless of whether the latter agreed or not, he directly led Shen Ruiling into a neat alchemy room.

The whole alchemy room was neatly organized, except for a medicine cabinet used to store pills and various elixirs, there was only a cattail mat placed in the middle.

At this time, Shen Ruiling couldn't help shaking his nostrils. In this alchemy room, he could faintly smell a faint fragrance. This fragrance had a feeling of deja vu.

Okay, take out your alchemy equipment and the elixir you used!

Yao Lao turned his head to look at Shen Ruiling who was a little dazed, and said slowly.

After hearing this, Shen Ruiling immediately took out his own alchemy furnace and all kinds of spirit sealing jade boxes for storing elixir from his storage bag.

And after he had put all the things in order, a strange expression appeared on his face again. After hesitating for a moment, he asked Yao Lao again:

I don't know if this junior can stay and give seniors a hand in alchemy?

When Shen Ruiling asked this sentence, he just had an attitude of giving it a try. Obviously, he also knew that his behavior could be said to be extremely shameful.

To put it bluntly, his behavior is to stay and fight, but to put it bluntly, it is a blatant steal!

Throughout the ages, when alchemists were making pills, they forbade others to watch from the sidelines. Firstly, it was to prevent the latter from disturbing them during the alchemy process, and secondly, they were worried that the inheritance would be leaked out.

Generally speaking, alchemists would allow their apprentices to observe their own alchemy process only after the status of master and apprentice was determined, so that the latter could understand the mysteries more clearly.

Of course, not only alchemists, but also monks such as craftsmen and talisman makers who rely on craftsmanship for their living are the same. up.

For Yao Lao, Shen Ruiling was not his apprentice, and he was just a guest of the Shen family, so what reason could the former stand here and watch him concoct alchemy?

There is obviously no reason for this!

At this time, Shen Ruiling was already prepared to be rejected, and even prepared to make an apology.

But just when he was worrying about gains and losses, Yao Lao's hearty laughter suddenly rang in his ears.

Hehe. Of course you want to stay, but instead of helping me, this old man will help you!

After hearing this, Shen Ruiling was obviously stunned, and looked at Yao Lao very puzzled.

However, at this time the latter was also looking at him with a smile that was not a smile, and slowly raised the wine gourd in his hand, savoring it carefully, showing a look of endless aftertaste.

I don't know what the senior said, if it is because of the previous words that offended the senior, the junior will apologize here!

On this side, Shen Ruiling bowed to Yao Lao again, with a very sincere look.

Seeing that Yao Lao put down the wine gourd in his hand, he couldn't help but glanced at him, and said faintly:

Don't you understand what the old man said, this time you will preside over the entire alchemy process, and the old man will help you.

But, this.

Obviously, Shen Ruiling still didn't react, looking at Yao Lao in front of him, he didn't know how to speak.

Haha. What's the matter? A dignified third-rank top-grade alchemist, now he doesn't even dare to open the furnace to make alchemy? Or does he not know it at all?

Yao Lao still looked at Shen Ruiling standing there with a half-smile, but the words on his mouth were particularly harsh.

And when Shen Ruiling heard these words, he seemed to be deeply shaken in the depths of his heart, and a look of sudden enlightenment could not help showing on his bewildered face.

The junior understands!

He hurriedly bowed his hands respectfully to Yao Lao again and thanked him.

After seeing this scene, the latter nodded slightly, picked up the wine gourd in his hand again, took a mouthful, and said slowly:

Hehe. Go ahead and do it, the old man will definitely guarantee your success!

On this side, Shen Ruiling walked slowly to the cattail mat in the center, sat down slowly, and looked deeply at the alchemy furnace with two ears standing in front of him.

Looking at the alchemy furnace in front of him, he couldn't help taking a deep breath, calming down his restless heart, a relentless sharpness gradually appeared in his dark pupils, but soon the relentless sharpness disappeared , replaced by a touch of calm indifference.

Seeing this situation, Yao Lao, who was savoring the fine wine in the cauldron, couldn't help but put down the wine gourd in his hand, and nodded slightly, as if he was very satisfied with Shen Ruiling's current state.

I saw a beautiful red lotus blooming slowly at the bottom of the alchemy furnace, and the next moment, the crimson fireworks instantly enveloped the entire alchemy furnace.

Shen Ruiling shot out a burst of spiritual power, slowly lifted the furnace cover, and then picked up a sealing jade box, opened it slowly, and carefully took out a small dark brown object from it.

It is that small piece of priceless [Nine-Zan Jinzhi]!

Looking at the small piece of [Jiuzhuan Jinzhi] in his hand, he hesitated slightly, but soon a flash of determination flashed in his eyes again, and then wrapped it with spiritual power and put it into the pill furnace.

[Jiuzhuan Jinzhi] No matter how precious it is, to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a panacea for alchemy!

When the small piece of [Jiuzhuan Jinzhi] was put into the alchemy furnace, it was instantly surrounded by hot flames, and then turned into a ball of emerald green concoction.

The next moment, a strong fragrance of grass and trees immediately swept out from the pill furnace, as if all the essence contained in the deepest part of the elixir had been released.

And at this moment, the heavy shackles that bound him in Shen Ruiling's heart seemed to be lifted at once, and all kinds of worries and lack of self-confidence disappeared from his mind.

There is no turning back when the bow is opened, and now [Jiuzhuan Jinzhi] has been thrown into the pill furnace, he has no way out, all he can do now is to use his best efforts to refine this furnace of pill.

Shen Ruiling has pondered over the alchemy formula of [Building Foundation Pill] countless times. It can be said that every detail of the pharmacology and alchemy steps has been clearly understood.

At this moment, everything he had prepared for refining [Building Foundation Pill] before, whether it was deducing the alchemy process and the steps of alchemy countless times in his mind, or predicting that there might be accidents during the entire alchemy process , have been transformed into his alchemy capital.

Shen Ruiling proceeded step by step according to the usual movements of alchemy, condensing the liquid medicine, controlling the temperature of the fire, and the timing and ratio of various elixir injections.

These alchemy movements of his all looked like flowing clouds and flowing water, without the slightest procrastination or disobedience.

At this moment, even Shen Ruiling himself didn't realize that although he was just repeating the process of alchemy in the past, the same movements and the same process of alchemy gave people a completely different feeling, which made people feel as if they were seeing and hearing.

This is a skill and confidence from the inside out!

At this time, Shen Ruiling was indifferent, with neither sad nor happy expression, and his movements were calm and meticulous. He was just doing his best to make every step and movement in his hand to the extreme.

At the same time, Yao Lao beside him couldn't help but put down the wine gourd in his hand, and nodded in satisfaction as he looked at Shen Ruiling who was already immersed in alchemy.

Children can be taught

He raised the wine gourd in his hand, took a sip carefully, and then murmured drunkenly.

But at this time, Shen Ruiling couldn't hear Yao Lao's words of praise at all, because he had completely entered that state of complete detachment, and he had forgotten everything.

In the past, because he was afraid that his mistakes would lead to the failure of alchemy, thus wasting this batch of precious medicinal materials in vain, he became timid, and he didn't even dare to make alchemy, all kinds of distracting thoughts lingered in his mind.

Now he has no distracting thoughts in his mind, he just completed a proficient alchemy process that can no longer be proficient!

As time passed quietly, the process of alchemy has reached the final step, which is also a critical moment to determine whether this furnace of elixir will be successful.

At this moment, Shen Ruiling's face was already pale, and bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead, and before they fell to the ground, they were evaporated by the scorching heat in the room.

On the other side, there was a constant 'buzzing' sound from the double-eared alchemy furnace, and the liquid medicine floating in the furnace began to be a little out of Shen Ruiling's control, and began to riot violently.

I saw that Shen Ruiling kept making pill-condensing handprints one after another, trying to suppress the vibration in the pill furnace, so that the riotous liquid medicine would be quiet again.

However, no matter how he suppressed the vibration in the pill furnace, he couldn't calm down the liquid medicine, and the instability in the whole pill furnace was increasing little by little.

Don't resist, just calm down and understand!

At this time, an old voice slowly sounded in Shen Ruiling's ear.

The next moment, he felt a powerful but friendly divine sense enter into the pill furnace in front of him, and then that divine sense tightly wrapped his own divine sense, controlling the furnace together with him. temperature and variations.

That sense of consciousness seemed to be hand in hand how he would complete the final step of the alchemy process, and an extremely mysterious feeling enveloped Shen Ruiling's whole body.

He could clearly feel every move of that divine consciousness during the alchemy process, as if he had personally completed the final step of the alchemy process.

Shen Ruiling knew that he was the one who taught him how to make alchemy, so he didn't resist at all, and he carefully comprehended every step in it.

This kind of miraculous experience is not something that he can encounter every time!

I don't know how long it took, Yao Lao's spiritual consciousness slowly retreated from the alchemy furnace like a tide, but Shen Ruiling, who was sitting cross-legged on the cattail mat, still had his eyes closed, with a slightly dignified expression.

At the same time, a crisp sound came from the pill furnace, and that sound was so pleasant to the ear.

The next moment, the lid of the alchemy furnace flew up, and three spirit pills emitting light green fluorescence slowly flew out and fell into a dark green jade bottle.

. . . . . .

Today I asked, what should the protagonist get this time? A fourth-level alchemy master in one step?
