Chapter 490
Dusk had fallen for a long time. Zhang Xiaohua stopped her cultivation and looked at the empty pill room with a smile. "Elder Zhang's personality has changed?
An entire day has passed, and he still hasn't come to see his precious Crimson Flame Pill? "
Just as she was thinking, she heard footsteps. Without releasing her divine sense, Zhang Xiaohua knew that it was Nie Qianyu.
When Nie Qianyu entered the alchemy room, Zhang Xiaohua deliberately looked behind her and said, "Huh?
Where's Elder Zhang?
Uncle Nie?
I haven't seen them for an entire day, and I miss them. Why haven't they come to see me refine pills? "
"Pfft!" Nie Qianyu laughed out loud. "You really want them to come?
I'll go call them right now. "
Nie Qianyu also pretended to leave. Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly said, "Forget it, I'll just think about them. Uncle Nie still has the huge Rejuvenation Valley to take care of, and Elder Zhang still has the handsome Da Bai to take care of. There's no need for you to make another trip."
"Bah!" Nie Qianyu sneered. "Even if you want them to come, they may not come."
Without waiting for Zhang Xiaohua to ask, Nie Qianyu said directly, "Those who came and left after being scolded by you were asked to enter the Elixir Chamber one moment and leave the Elixir Chamber the next. They are all your elders. How can they still keep their dignity?"
"If you let them watch from the pill room, they'll naturally come."
Zhang Xiaohua came to a realization. She pointed at Nie Qianyu and laughed. "Little Fish Nie, you're trying to persuade them again!
Did Elder Zhang go to look for you? "
Nie Qianyu covered her mouth and laughed. "Looks like I can't hide anything from Big Brother Ren. Father and Elder Zhang both asked me to ask you. If you let them see something new in the future, they'll come. If it's just a pancake like medicinal liquid for ten days, they won't come."
Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "Then you should tell the two of them to come back on the last day. There won't be much change in the next ten days."
Nie Qianyu nodded and then asked a few more questions about the Five Elements Dayan Formation. She was inspired by Zhang Xiaohua and wanted to think about something of her own. However, there were too many things included in the Immortal Dao Formation. It was not easy to just accept them all. She had just come into contact with the formation, so how could she understand her own things?
Therefore, Zhang Xiaohua answered all her questions without hesitation. Nie Qianyu's eyes sparkled as she listened to Zhang Xiaohua.
Looking at Nie Qianyu's eyes, Zhang Xiaohua raised her little tail high and looked like a master. She said, "I don't have much time left, Little Fishy. When I leave, where will you find another master like me?
Why aren't you working hard to master it? "
If it was any other day, Nie Qianyu would have already scolded Zhang Xiaohua for being so arrogant. However, when she heard it now, she felt weak in her heart. She pursed her lips and did not say anything.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua had an indescribable feeling in her heart. She quickly picked up some common knowledge about the formation, including the Five Elements Formation and the Tripartite Formation. She combined it with her own martial arts knowledge and tried her best to make Nie Qianyu understand and practice it on a daily basis. This gradually diverted Nie Qianyu's attention and made her listen more attentively.
Nie Qianyu only left reluctantly when it was late at night.
After Nie Qianyu left the inner valley, Zhang Xiaohua immediately restricted the alchemy room. She did not waste any time and continued to comprehend the Heavenly Dao.
Zhang Xiaohua did not think that she was wasting time by explaining formations to Nie Qianyu. First, Nie Qianyu's cultivation in martial arts was limited. If she could learn formations, she would have some ability to protect herself. This could be considered repaying Nie Qianyu's wisdom. Second, Zhang Xiaohua's formations were fumbled by herself based on jade slips and might not be completely correct. During the lecture, she could also comprehend or make up for new things.
After a while, it was almost midnight. Zhang Xiaohua, who was sitting on the bed, suddenly opened her eyes. She frowned and released her divine sense from the alchemy room, directly sweeping outside Rejuvenation Valley.
She saw several carriages and several horses carrying a group of people along the small path toward Rejuvenation Valley. Zhang Xiaohua was puzzled. Why were there still people coming?
However, judging from their hurried but not surreptitious appearances, they didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards Rejuvenation Valley.
Right at this moment, a guard dressed in martial attire scuttled out from the forest on the side of the path. He stood in the middle of the path and held a long spear in his hand, blocking the path of the carriages.
The carriages all stopped. A young man dressed in martial attire riding a white horse stepped out of the crowd and walked towards the guard. Under the moonlight, Zhang Xiaohua could clearly see that it was Rejuvenation Valley's second son-in-law — the young gang master of the Whale Gang, Qiang Sheng.
When she saw this, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't be bothered to look any further. She withdrew her divine sense. However, she found it strange. It was already the middle of the night. Why had Nie Qianyu brought her husband back to her parents' home?
Ever since Zhang Xiaohua reached the peak of the early stage of Qi Condensation, her comprehension of the Heavenly Dao had improved slightly. In particular, she'd made new gains in the past few days when she'd combined the incantation of Spirit Guidance with the Heavenly Dao. It was very easy for her to merge her entire body into her surroundings. Even if she didn't release her divine sense, she could still reflect any abnormal movements within a certain radius into her mind.
However, Nie Qianyu was Nie Qianyu's second older sister. When she returned to her parents' home had nothing to do with Zhang Xiaohua. He naturally wouldn't pay her any attention. Moreover, the time to cultivate the Carefree Heart Sutra was about to arrive. Even if he wanted to pay her any attention, there was nothing he could do.
Zhang Xiaohua stood up and floated over to the pill cauldron. She carefully examined the situation within the cauldron. She still felt a bit uneasy. Just as the recipe for the Meridian Soothing Pill in the jade slip had said, the Meridian Soothing Pill was only a low-level pill. She only needed to pay attention to the cauldron for a dozen or so days. She didn't need to pay attention to the temperature at all times. However, she had several hours between midnight and daybreak. She couldn't pay attention to anything at all. If she made a single mistake, all of her previous efforts would be wasted.
"Sigh, if only I had a child to look after the cauldron."
Zhang Xiaohua, who was similar to an alchemy boy, couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Moreover, the image of a scabby kid appeared in his mind for no reason. It was actually Ji Xiaohua from Pine Ning Town who had the same name as him!
Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but smile. She thought to herself, "If I had a scabby-headed child to look after the cauldron, wouldn't I be laughed to death by others?"
Seeing that the time was about to arrive, Zhang Xiaohua didn't have time to let her imagination run wild. She concentrated and orderly injected some techniques into the cauldron and medicinal liquid. Then, she sat cross-legged on the cattail hassock in front of the cauldron. She took out two vitality stones from her bosom and closed her eyes to cultivate the Carefree Heart Sutra.
Not long after, mysterious fluctuations surged from Zhang Xiaohua's body. Countless invisible starlight from the endless starry sky shone through the mountain walls of Rejuvenation Valley and directly shone around Zhang Xiaohua.
Everything was no different from his nightly cultivation.
However, although there was no difference in Zhang Xiaohua's cultivation today, there was a change in the medicinal liquid being nurtured in the cauldron in front of her.
The essence of the Scarlet Fire Grass and the essence of the Crimson Pearl Grass in the medicinal liquid were interacting with each other like water and fire. They were constantly vibrating and rotating.
Zhang Xiaohua was sitting in front of the cauldron. Her whole body was shrouded by the starlight, and the cauldron above the Earth Fire was inevitably enveloped as well. The starlight entered Zhang Xiaohua's body and also entered the rotating fusion of water and fire. The two essences that were still vibrating and seemed to be rejecting further fusion gradually accepted each other harmoniously after the starlight entered. The vibration of the medicinal liquid also gradually weakened and gradually calmed down as time passed.
Moreover, due to the mysterious fluctuations surging from Zhang Xiaohua's body, these fluctuations caused the starlight around her to vibrate. The starlight in the medicinal liquid was also unavoidably affected. Therefore, the rotation of the medicinal liquid was also affected by these mysterious fluctuations. There were some slight changes in the rotation of the medicinal liquid. As a result, more flickering starlight was attracted into the medicinal liquid …
The next morning, Zhang Xiaohua opened her eyes and immediately looked into the cauldron. Following Zhang Xiaohua's awakening, the fluctuations on her body immediately disappeared. The starlight also immediately stopped projecting. Naturally, the starlight in the medicinal liquid also disappeared. However, the changes in the rotation of the medicinal liquid remained.
It was a pity that these changes were too weak. Even when Zhang Xiaohua used her divine sense to observe carefully, she did not detect any changes at all!
Not having any changes was the best result. Zhang Xiaohua heaved a sigh of relief. She stood up and used a few more hand seals to remove the restriction on the cauldron room. She then walked to the empty space in front of the cauldron room and started cultivating the Big Dipper Magical Fist.
Although Zhang Xiaohua had already told Nie Qianyu yesterday to pass on the message to Valley Head Nie and Elder Zhang that there would not be any special changes in the ten over days of refining the pills, so there was no need for them to come and observe. However, not long after Zhang Xiaohua returned to the cauldron room to comprehend the God's Guidance, Valley Head Nie and Elder Zhang came over hand in hand.
After greeting each other, the two of them could not wait to observe the medicinal liquid in the cauldron. They saw that the medicinal liquid was still at the bottom of the cauldron and there was no change from yesterday. The two of them could not help but look at each other in dismay. Could it be that this medicinal liquid had been roasting at the bottom of the cauldron for ten over days?
What was the difference between this and one day?
Of course, they understood in their hearts that there was definitely a difference. Otherwise, Zhang Xiaohua would not have stayed in this cauldron room for ten over days. But the question was, what was the difference?
Was it to refine the essence of the medicinal herbs?
The two of them almost reached out a hand to grab Zhang Xiaohua's neck and make her say the reason.
But looking at Zhang Xiaohua's smiling and closed mouth, they knew that this fellow was going to invite them out again!
Sure enough, just as Zhang Xiaohua was about to open her mouth, Elder Zhang said with a smile, "Ren Shaoxia, Big White caught a cold while looking after the medicinal herbs yesterday. Our Rejuvenation Valley is too big and I can't manage it alone. I am relying on Big White to patrol here, so I have to take good care of it. I reckon that I won't be coming over for the next few days. The refinement of this Crimson Flame Pill will all depend on Shaoxia."
Valley Master Nie also forced a smile and said, "I also have to deal with one matter after another in this valley. It seems that I won't be able to come over often. I will have to trouble my nephew with this matter."
Valley Master Nie frowned deeply. These words seemed to be the truth. Zhang Xiaohua's heart also moved. Thinking of what she saw last night, she could not help but laugh secretly. "Even an upright official finds it difficult to resolve family matters. This must be Rejuvenation Valley's own matter."
