Chapter 24
Chapter 24
As the chief female officer of the East Palace, Ye Huanhuan showed her extraordinary ability upon arrival, whether it was matching clothes, or eating, drinking and having fun, she didn't need others to worry about everything.
After Yan Xuekong finished grooming, he changed back to the delicate prince when he was in the palace.
Snow clothes and golden crowns are noble and not stained with dust.
Feng Ran was sitting in the yard drinking tea, when she looked up, she was caught by the aura of the cub, and whispered to Feng Rao: "This baby looks better than his mother when she was young, it will be amazing when it grows up."
Back then, Hua Yuelong's reputation spread all over Jiuzhou, and there were as many ministers under her skirts as crucian carp crossing the river. I don't know how many troubles it caused, but it stopped after marrying Yan Yuan.
Feng Rao didn't take it seriously, for a boy, it's no big deal to be good-looking.
They were chatting, and saw the cub running up to Xue Cunyi, holding the small lucky bag, and said in a childlike voice: "Brother Cunyi, the alchemy furnace is all blown up, can Yanyan compensate you?"
"No, no, no need!" Xue Cunyi waved his hands again and again, shaking his head like a rattle, "Your Highness, I will go to Danfeng City to buy one later."
"Yan Yan is so rich." Yan Xuekong emphasized, seeing that he was still shaking his head desperately, he blinked, took his hand, raised his face and smiled and said: "Okay, okay, let's go shopping together."
Xue Cunyi smiled.
The little Highness is so kind and lovely, so what is the fryer? It's understandable for him to fry a few more at a young age.
Ye Huanhuan also thought so, and suggested: "When we came, we saw that there were many auction places in the city. Your Highness can buy a few more for emergencies."
"Then let's go."
Yan Xuekong let go of Xue Cunyi, held Xie Yuchen as usual, and ran up the Lingfang, "Grandma, mother-in-law of the patriarch, Yanyan is waiting for you in Danfeng City."
"Okay, slow down." Feng Ran and Feng Rao were inconvenient to go with them, they had to wait for the alchemy test to start before going there, so they gave a few words of advice, and sent someone to protect them secretly, and then let them set off.
On the spirit boat, there were already dozens of maids and guards. After saluting together, they cast spells to activate the spirit boat, and drove among the sea of clouds.
"Sister Huanhuan, Brother Huaishan, come here."
Yan Xuekong sat in the cabin and waved to the outside of the curtain. When the two came in and sat down, he asked, "Where did sister Huanhuan get the burning spirit poison from Luozhou?"
Ye Huanhuan was startled and looked at Huaishan.
"Your Highness, although the Burning Spirit Poison was produced in Luozhou, its origin is unknown. It seems that someone regularly distributed it in the market in batches, and it was auctioned and traded by others. After several times, the origin is unknown."
Huaishan thought for a while, and replied: "I have been wandering in Luozhou for more than ten years, but I have heard some gossip, and I don't know if I should tell it or not."
Yan Xuekong put his face in one hand: "Speak."
Huaishan looked at him, as if he was afraid of frightening him, and said slowly: "I heard that the Heavenly Witch in the Devil's Palace has a special physique and is covered with poison. She poisoned her mother to death when she was born. The poison of Burning Spirit should be related to her. Related. Someone saw her kill someone, and the dead person was exactly the same as the burning spirit poison in her body."
"Luo Zhou, Sky Witch?"
Xue Cunyi frowned, "I only heard that she is the same age as Shangguan Mengyin, the saint of the Ancient Sacred Sect, and that the two of them built their foundations on the same day when they were ten years old. She is the proud daughter of heaven and is famous across the Nine Continents."
Geniuses are also divided into levels, and Shangguan Mengyin and Sky Witch are undoubtedly at the top.
Ye Huanhuan smiled noncommittally, and helped Yan Xuekong peel a fruit.
Xue Cunyi couldn't understand: "If it was her, at such a young age, why would she make so many poisons to harm people?"
Huaishan disagreed with this, and shook his head, saying, "If there is no burning spirit poison, Huanhuan and I will not be able to avenge. All things in the world, some are born with poison, and some are born to detoxify, it is not their fault, the key is people who use it."
Xie Yuchen glanced lightly, and continued to close his eyes to rest.
Yan Xuekong didn't comment, took a bite of the fruit, and ate it without worry.
The Lingfang stopped outside the city gate, Huaishan and Ye Huanhuan came down first, and were about to turn around to pick up the three children, when they jumped down neatly one by one.
Yan Xuekong pulled one to the left and one to the right, and ran into the city.
Danfeng City, as its name suggests, is full of maple trees, and now is a good time, when the autumn wind blows, the ground is full of red maple trees, and the streets are reflected like a phoenix spreading its wings.
"This street is also called 'Phoenix Street'. It was built by the early hall masters in memory of the kindness of the Feng clan. Today, it has become a magnificent scene in Danfeng City." Xue Cunyi introduced as he walked.
Yan Xuekong nodded, bouncing up and down, looking around.
It just happened to be a three-inch ding, so small that I couldn't find a place to look for it.
Xie Yuchen pressed his little head, turned around, and lifted it up, facing the three big characters of "Baohua Pavilion".
Baohua Pavilion, there are treasure pavilions opened all over Jiuzhou, even in the Imperial Capital of Zhongzhou, and auctions are held in various places from time to time. When it comes to the degree of wealth, the royal family is the first, and Baohua Pavilion dares to be the second.
However, the pavilion master is a character with many facets. Not to mention offering sacrifices to the royal family every year, even the sects in each continent are properly managed, so that no one can find any faults.
Doing business to such an extent can also be called a genius.
"Ah, I found it!" Yan Xuekong climbed onto Xie Yuchen's body, put his arms around his neck, and commanded: "Brother Junyu, hurry up and buy a pill furnace."
Xie Yuchen glanced at the dense crowd, and calmly said: "There are too many people, so I don't want to go."
Yan Xuekong blinked and said, "I'll buy you a gift too."
Xie Yuchen glanced at him: "Am I missing?"
Yan Xuekong said confidently: "If you lack, you can't have too many gifts."
Xue Cun thought that the two of them seemed to be quarreling, so he hurriedly followed Huai Shan and squeezed a way out. Ye Huanhuan patted him on the shoulder and said with a light smile, "Young Master Xue, it's fine."
Although the two His Highnesses kept bickering, they never really got into a fight.
In fact, she felt that His Highness Jun Yu had an intimidating aura, which had nothing to do with age, but she would not talk too much about things that she should not be involved in.
Xue Cunyi still didn't quite understand, so he turned his head and looked, where's the person?People are gone!
The next moment, Yan Xuekong shouted at them in Baohua Pavilion: "Come in quickly."
Xue Cunyi turned his head back, stunned, what, when did he go in?Also, isn't it said that there are many people?
In Baohua Pavilion, the flow of people dispersed a bit, some were looking at the treasures at the booths downstairs, while some seemed to be familiar with the way, they went straight up the stairs and went to other floors.
"On the first floor, money and goods are paid for, the second floor is bartered, and the third floor is auctioned at a high price." At the counter, a smiling woman walked up. Seeing them standing still in the middle of the lobby, she pointed at Huaishan and Ye Huanhuan said with a smile: "Cheng Liu, the master of the Lingzhou branch of Baohua Pavilion, what do you guys want to buy?"
The brothers and sisters of the Ye family took a step back, Yan Xuekong raised his head and said with a smile, "Buy the best alchemy furnace here."
When Cheng Liu saw the cub's conspicuous silver-haired golden pupils, he was slightly startled. At this moment, Xue Cunyi squeezed over, waved and shouted: "Master Cheng, it's me. I, my pill furnace is broken."
"Young Master Xue?"
Xue Cunyi lived in Danfeng City since he was a child, so he naturally knew Cheng Liu. Cheng Liu glanced at him, smiled thoughtfully, and made a gesture: "The pill test is coming soon, and the stock of the pill furnace is almost sold out." .However, there are some excellent quality ones on the second floor, you can go and have a look.”
The seller on the second floor is not from Baohua Pavilion, but just borrowed the signboard and venue. Similarly, Baohua Pavilion will also charge a high price from the seller, and use this to expand its influence and mutual benefit.
Yan Xuekong nodded, followed Cheng Liu, and walked in the front.
"Not long ago, a master craftsman came from Nanzhou. He didn't easily make a move, but the worst thing he could refine was a top-grade spiritual weapon." Cheng Liu pointed out: "With the qualifications of Mr. Xue, you might as well For your own needs, go to him to customize a pill furnace."
Xue Cunyi asked: "I wonder which master craftsman it is?"
Lingzhou is famous for its elixir, and Nanzhou is famous for its refining equipment, each has its own strengths.
Baohua Pavilion has cooperated with these pharmacists and weapon refiners, and even released various rankings. Whether it is authoritative or not is different, but those who are on the list are undoubtedly very popular.
Cheng Liu smiled and said, "Second on the list of utensils, Gu Huazi."
Everyone's face changed slightly.
The number one on the weapon list is the Great Elder of the Ancient Sage Sect. Although Gu Huazi is ranked second, his reputation is much better than the first, because he has an extremely weird temper and does not follow the usual way of refining weapons. He dared to go to the Ancient Sage when he was young. Zong went to challenge the Great Elder, and got the evaluation of a "ghost refining weapon".
It is said that over the years, he has visited various continents and caused a lot of troubles.
"It turned out to be him." Ye Huanhuan was born in the Ancient Sacred Sect of Nanzhou, and said immediately after hearing the words: "This senior is indeed capable. The Great Elder has invited him to join the Ancient Sacred Sect several times, but he has been rejected. In fact, pure talent In theory, he may not be inferior to the Great Elder."
It's just that one is backed by a large sect and supported by countless resources, while the other is a casual cultivator, who relies entirely on his own research and practice.
Xue Cunyi quickly asked: "Master Cheng, what is the request of this senior?"
Cheng Liu shook his head and said helplessly: "He just sat there and didn't say anything. A few days ago, Miss Yunshang, the daughter of the King of Lingzhou, asked him to make weapons with many precious materials and treasures, but he didn't agree."
Just as they were talking, a group of people had reached the second floor.
Yan Xuekong followed Cheng Liu's line of sight, and saw an old man sitting cross-legged in the south corner, with messy hair, intertwined black and white, and a very impatient look.
And standing in front of the old man was a pretty girl about fifteen or six years old who was about the same age as Xue Cunyi. She seemed extremely angry and was talking arrogantly.
"Miss Yunshang, why are you here again?" Cheng Liu quickly stepped forward, grabbed the girl, and smoothed things over with a smile: "Senior Gu Huazi has a visitor, I'll take you to another place to see."
"I think this old man is a liar! Which blind person is here to look for..." Yun Shang turned her head angrily, was suddenly taken aback, and rushed to grab Xue Cunyi: "Where have you been these few days, I've been looking for you everywhere, you Have you signed up yet? I said I would compete with you in the Dan test!"
Xue Cunyi was in a complicated mood and kept silent.
Yan Xuekong let go of Xie Yuchen's hand, ran to Gu Huazi, sat down, and greeted with a smile: "Hi, senior."
Gu Huazi raised his head angrily, and saw that it was a little one, who was quite cute, swallowed the swear words, and shouted: "Whose doll, hurry up and take it back!"
As if bitten by a bug, he fidgeted and moved back a little.
Confused, the cub moved inside.
Gu Huazi: "..."
Gu Huazi jumped up and ran out, a creature like a child is really a headache, he will not accompany it.
"Encyclopedia of Artifact Refining." Yan Xuekong picked up the picture album he left behind, and read the beginning in a childish voice, before opening it, he seemed to see something, and laughed so hard.
Gu Huazi paused and snatched the book back: "What are you laughing at? Is it funny?"
Yan Xuekong held his face, his pale golden eyes blinked: "No, Yanyan saw a lot of interesting things, there was a flying cylinder, there was a scimitar that could deform, and there was a biting one. Dan Furnace..."
This is so vivid, it is all the content in the picture book.
Gu Huazi was stunned when he heard that, and rushed over in shock, took out a mirror and took a look at him: "Where did the evildoer come from, and he didn't show his appearance quickly!"
Yan Xuekong tilted his head in a daze.
The next moment, the mirror in Gu Huazi's hand trembled, and suddenly exploded with a "bang"!
Everyone was startled, they all rushed forward, and threw the protective cover on the cub. Xie Yuchen leaned against the wall, his eyes flashed, and the fragments of the mirror that were swept away quietly annihilated.
Yan Xuekong didn't rush, but cast a protective technique on Gu Huazi, and said with a smile: "The spirit weapon is backfired. Senior, your way of refining weapons is not good enough."
Gu Huazi: "..."
