Chapter 12: Shelter and ruthlessness

"Go, go in and talk!"

Linglong's gaze only stayed on He Pingsheng for a short time before skipping over.

She was in a good mood today and didn't care about He Pingsheng.

"Hey..." At this moment, Hao Yun was like a dog, serving left and right, even more humble than when Senior Uncle Elder Yu Xuan came.

He Pingsheng expressed that it was a bit spicy to the eyes, but he could understand.

Enter the hall!

Linglong clapped her hands and said: "I am here today to refine 【Ju Qi Dan】, Hao Yun, tell me, can this young lady refine this top-tier Ju Qi Dan?"

Ah this...

Hao Yun was speechless.

However, he was a person who could talk, his eyeballs moved a few times, and he said: "Qiao Shijie Linglong is gifted, she will definitely refine an extraordinary elixir. Some time ago, several Senior Uncles and Senior Aunts came here to refine alchemy, and the Ju Qi Dan they refined was at most mid-tier!"

"Little brother has never seen that top-tier elixir, but... Qiao Shijie, you are definitely different, you will definitely be able to refine top-tier!"

This sentence is half flattery and half sarcasm, and by the way, let Linglong recognize the reality.

Sure enough, Linglong smiled coldly and said: "Don't be sarcastic here... I understand, it means top-tier elixir is very difficult to refine, right?"

"No!" Hao Yun shook his head and said: "Young Lady... it's not that top-tier elixir is difficult to refine, it's that high-tier is difficult. I have served in this alchemy room for thirteen years, and I have never seen anyone who can refine high-tier, even mid-tier is not common, like phoenix feathers and unicorn horns!"

"Not to hide it from Qiao Shijie, eight out of ten who come here to refine alchemy explode the furnace!"

Linglong's face turned cold, and a green precious sword was placed on Hao Yun's neck: "You mean, this young lady can't refine alchemy today?"

"Heaven and earth conscience, Young Lady... I didn't say that!" Hao Yun was full of desire to survive, and then said with a flattering face: "Qiao Shijie, Qiao Shijie... your precious sword is slightly back... little brother is scared..."

"Humph..." Linglong put away the precious sword: "Continue!"

"Yes!" Hao Yun continued to pile up smiles and said: "It's just that alchemy has a success rate, no one can say well. Generally speaking, if it is a skilled alchemist, only one furnace out of five or six furnaces can succeed!"

"Then tell me!" Linglong said: "When can it succeed, how can it succeed?"

"This is hard to say!" Hao Yun said: "Pill formation is related to fire, quality of medicinal materials, and the technique of the alchemist... Of course, sometimes, it is also related to luck!"

"I don't care!" Linglong's eyes flashed with a trace of cunning: "Isn't your name Hao Yun? You will definitely bring me good luck. Come, start. If the pill is not formed later, this young lady will ask you two, life and death depend on yourselves!"

Hiss hiss hiss...

He Pingsheng and Hao Yun both took a breath: really unreasonable.

But there is no way!

Should work, still have to work!

"Yes yes yes..."

The two started working.

First step, burn the fire!

Then add water!

These jobs were all done by Hao Yun. He Pingsheng was on the side, just doing some work of passing firewood.

He Pingsheng only saw Qiao Shijie Linglong adding medicinal materials to the pot one by one.

Before long, a rich medicinal fragrance came out of the pot.

Of course, although Linglong is domineering, her financial resources are still incomparable to Senior Uncle Elder Yu Xuan. She doesn't have any storage bags.

Everything is in a cloth bag.

An hour later, the medicinal fragrance in the pot became richer and richer.

"Hehe..." The smile on Linglong's face became more and more prosperous: "Soon... in another quarter of an hour, my medicine will be ready!"

"Definitely can succeed!"

Hao Yun nodded and complimented: "Looking at it now, it's 80% successful... that... Little He... go out the back door and walk back, turn left!"

"Opposite the trash pit, there are some wood materials I placed... remember, it's Jujube wood large firewood..."

"You go and get it!"

He Pingsheng was stunned for a moment and said: "Wang Shixiong, there is Jujube wood large firewood beside!"

Hao Yun's face turned black, and he said: "Why so much nonsense, go quickly!"

Linglong's face also suddenly turned cold: "Go quickly!"

He Pingsheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and go out!

Out of the back door of the alchemy room, he ran all the way to the mountain road. When he reached the opposite side of the mountain cliff, He Pingsheng didn't find any Jujube wood large firewood.

Looking left and right, he didn't find it.

He was worried that he would be blamed by Hao Yun and Linglong if he went back empty-handed, so he searched several times.

After searching for a full half hour, he didn't see any Jujube wood large firewood.

He Pingsheng could only return with a furrowed brow.

The alchemy room was quiet!

A burnt smell came.

Not good...

He Pingsheng's heart shook: This is... alchemy failed?

He bent his waist and looked inside from the window behind the hall, and found that Linglong and the two male disciples she brought were gone.

On the ground, only Hao Yun was lying.

"Wang Shixiong... Wang Shixiong..."

He Pingsheng felt as if something was blocked in his heart as he ran back to the hall and helped Hao Yun sit up.

Hao Yun's face was pale, and blood kept flowing from the corners of his mouth.

"Wang Shixiong..." He Pingsheng was almost crying: "You knew she wouldn't succeed in alchemy, so you deliberately sent me away, right?"

"Hehehe..." Hao Yun laughed and said: "That... that... one person being beaten... is better than... cough cough cough... two, right?"

Pfft...

While speaking, another mouthful of blood sprayed from Hao Yun's mouth.

On his pale face, two cold rays of light shot out from his pupils, and he said fiercely: "This damn little girl, she hit so hard... damn... damn thing, unreasonable, completely unreasonable..."

He Pingsheng said: "Wang Shixiong... how are you?"

"Is it okay... I'll go call a doctor to take a look..."

"Hehehe... pfft..." Hao Yun spat out two more mouthfuls of blood and said: "The dog leg of this little girl is not simple, she smashed me with two punches... my ribs are broken... painful painful painful..."

"Junior Brother..."

"Next, I might have to lie down for a few months!"

"You will serve me food in the future!"

"Hmm... also help me pour the urine basin..."

He Pingsheng was okay, but Hao Yun himself was full of despair.

He Pingsheng shed two tears unknowingly and said: "Thank you, Wang Shixiong..."

If Hao Yun hadn't sent him away in advance, the one lying on the ground today might not have been Hao Yun alone.

But two!

Hao Yun didn't die because he was old, physically strong, and had reached the second layer of the Qi Refining Stage.

What about him, He Pingsheng?

Could he survive?

Calling it a life-saving grace is not an exaggeration.

The key is... my relationship with Wang Shixiong Hao is average, and the relationship is average.

Why did he save me?

Thinking about it this way, it's just that others have compassion!

That's all.

Wang Shixiong Hao is a good person! ===== CHAPTER 13 =====
