An alchemy furnace fell from the sky

Yu Qinglan is a little bored.

Xu Fu was in seclusion and Yuehua was sleeping. He originally wanted to go shopping, but due to the Danyuan Conference, the prices in Shangyang City had obviously increased a lot.

In the past, Yu Qinglan would not have cared about such extraneous things, but now, after all, she was not spending her own money, so she was not as lavish as before.

After walking around in a big circle until the sun went down, Yu Qinglan came back empty-handed, touching a few golden tickets in her sleeves, cursing in her heart that she was worthless.

"You're back, what did you buy?"

As soon as she entered the inn, Yu Qinglan heard Xu Fu's voice. When she looked up, Xu Fu was standing at the door of the room with a smile on her face.

"I didn't buy it, the price of everything has increased." Yu Qinglan was shocked at first, and then said with curled lips.

"Isn't there enough money? I still have some here." Xu Fu said and went to dig into his pockets.

"That's enough, that's enough! Xiao Shui Chang Liu, do you understand?" Yu Qinglan rolled her eyes at Xu Fu, walked closer, and found that Xu Fu had already ordered the food and drinks, and had not yet moved his chopsticks. He seemed to be waiting for her.

The food and wine in the inn were not of the highest quality, but it did not prevent the two of them from having a good time. That's the thing about drinking. The person you drink with is much more important than the type of wine you drink. Otherwise, as they say, "a thousand cups of wine is less than a thousand cups of wine with a close friend."

Xu Fu ate a lot as usual, and Yu Qinglan drank too much as usual.

"You can drink so fast with this amount of alcohol!" Xu Fu couldn't help laughing when he saw Yu Qinglan lying on the table and falling asleep. He is also not very good at drinking, but eating more food is still beneficial, and it can relieve hangover to some extent.

Lying on the table to sleep was not an option. Xu Fu helped Yu Qinglan to the bed unsteadily. He saw that the clothes on his chest were stained with a lot of oil and wine, making them wet. He suddenly thought that there seemed to be a laundry room in the inn. Then he sat by the bed and took off Yu Qinglan's clothes.

The inner and outer clothes were taken off, revealing several layers of white cloth wrapped around Qinglan's chest. This outfit was a bit strange.

Looking at the naked Yu Qinglan, Xu Fu suddenly thought of a possibility. He was so frightened that he suddenly stood up from the bed and woke up from the wine.

Look at Yu Qinglan now under the candle, her hair is messy, her cheeks are slightly red, and the skin on her waist is so tender that she looks like a woman.

"That's wrong! It's obviously a man's voice, why did it change to a woman's?"

Xu Fu was in a state of confusion at this time. Although it was just a guess, he really didn't have the courage to "verify his true identity."

He wanted to put Yu Qinglan's clothes back on, but he no longer dared to touch her body, so he had to pull off the quilt and cover her up, while he sent her clothes to the laundry as if he was running away.

The aunt who washed the clothes was very nimble and washed the clothes very quickly. Xu Fu didn't finish the pot of tea before the clothes were washed.

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Fu carefully entered the room again, hung her washed clothes on the bedside, and then ran to the next door as if running away.

The young master of the Ling family is currently sleeping in this room. The young master was frightened, but he took the sleeping pill just right. Even after sleeping for a whole day and night, he showed no sign of waking up.

Xu Fu had no intention of sharing a bed with him for fear of turning into a girl again.

Sitting in the room, Xu Fu kept thinking about everything he had spent with Yu Qinglan in the past few days. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Yu Qinglan looked like a woman. He secretly cursed himself for being stupid for not noticing it earlier.

Not in the mood to sleep, Xu Fu simply recited the Jingxin Jue silently twice and practiced the Chaos Mind Technique.

Although there are no fifth-grade elixirs now, there are still many ready-made elixirs. Anyway, they cannot be sold at Yibaoxing for the time being, so they may as well be used for cultivation.

As soon as his mind was on cultivation, he calmed down. Xu Fu was pleasantly surprised to find that this elixir was easier to practice and faster than the elixir. There was another point that made Xu Fu almost want to laugh out loud. He found that even if Even if you practice with the same elixir, you can fully absorb the power of the medicine. This means that there is no need to worry about the elixir's potency diminishing, which is gratifying.

However, now that he has been promoted to the fifth level, the fourth-level elixir can no longer meet his cultivation needs. The mental method has been running for less than a week and the fourth-level elixir is only residue in the palm of his hand. In the end, Xu Fu had to take out several elixirs at a time to practice.

Before I knew it, the night had passed.

Looking at the empty jade box, Xu Fu couldn't help but smile bitterly. However, the speed of this cultivation was really astonishing. After only one day, Xu Fu felt that the sea of ​​qi had been filled to the point of bulging, and it seemed that he was on the verge of a breakthrough. Unfortunately, there was no magic pill or elixir for him to "squander".

Now there is only one "Ghost Seeing Sorrow" left in his body, and Xu Fu is reluctant to use it. It is better to keep this life-saving elixir just in case.

Accompanied by the crow of the cock, Xu Fu stood up and stretched, and his muscles and bones made a crisp sound.

"I'm so tired!"

After practicing for a long time twice in a row, Xu Fu felt very tired. It seems that this way of practicing is not advisable! What Hall Master Fu said about "step by step" still makes sense.

However, the vastness and fullness of the Qi Sea still makes Xu Fu feel more at ease. After all, everything he is doing now is for the day when the power of the Seven Heart Pill will explode and he can survive. Every time his cultivation level increases, the chance of survival will increase. point.

Living is an easy thing for most people. Few people will be grateful that they are still alive the moment they wake up. But for Xu Fu, he had to spend all his energy for these two words. thought.

"This is life!"

Xu Fu did not feel sorry for himself, and he did not regret taking the Qixin Dan. Instead of letting him work as a cow and a horse in the landlord's house, it would be better to control his destiny in his own hands as he does now.

"Dong dong!"

There was a slight and brief knock on the door. Xu Fu opened the door and found Yu Qinglan standing at the door with her head lowered.

I saw that she had already put on her clothes, her hair on the temples was a little disheveled, she lowered her head and did not look at Xu Fu. Xu Fu didn't know how to speak and stood there for a moment. Xu Fu let Yu Qinglan into the room first.

"I saw your clothes were dirty last night, so I sent them to be washed for you." Xu Fu was too embarrassed to look into Yu Qinglan's eyes, so he had to look at her somewhat cramped hands. They were so delicate, and there was no trace of them. A pair of man's hands! Xu Fu cursed himself again in his heart.

"I know." Yu Qinglan responded in a low voice.

"Are you a woman?" Xu Fu asked carefully.

"Yeah." Yu Qinglan didn't look up.

"Then why are you dressing up as a man?"

"I'm afraid of being recognized."

……

The two of them have changed from their usual carelessness. One is shyer than the other. They talk to each other like a newlywed couple meeting for the first time after getting engaged.

In fact, the matter is very simple. It is similar to what Xu Fu guessed. Yu Qinglan is a young lady from a wealthy family. She was dissatisfied with the control of her family and ran away disguised as a man. She originally wanted to come to the Danyuan Conference in Shangyang City to join in the fun, but unexpectedly she met Thief, Xu Fu also knew everything that happened after that.

"But what's wrong with your throat?"

Xu Fu was very confused about Qinglan's rough voice. This voice was really not something that people could associate with a woman.

"This is called Loquat Pill, a second-grade elixir. It was originally used to moisten the lungs and relieve coughs, but after taking it, the voice will change, and it will recover after a while."

So it turned out that Xu Fu finally solved the mystery in his heart.

"That……"

"Brother Fu!"

Xu Fu wanted to ask something else, but was interrupted by Yu Qinglan.

"Today is the Danyuan Conference, let's talk about this another day!"

"it is good!"

Xu Fu breathed a sigh of relief. Yu Qinglan changed from male to female. He was also a little uncomfortable. It would be best to talk about it later, just in time to figure out how the two of them should get along.

Xu Fu carried the red mud for Yu Qinglan and left a note for Ling Ao, explaining the whereabouts of the two of them and asking him to wait in peace. He also placed Yuehua, who was still sleeping soundly, on the bed in the next room. Then the two left the inn. Walking towards the venue of the Danyuan Conference.

The Danyuan Conference was held in an empty field in the southeast corner of Shangyang City. The empty field was surrounded by a large stand, enough to accommodate hundreds of people. There are two entrances, one is the "Qian" gate for the alchemists participating in the Danyuan Conference, and the other is the "Kun" gate leading to the stands.

It was only sunrise at this time, not too late, but there was already a long queue at the "Kun" gate. It was obvious that the onlookers were very concerned about this Danyuan Conference and came here early. However, there was a search at the door and no sharp objects were allowed, which also made the team move very slowly.

On the other hand, there was no one at the entrance of the "Qian" gate. There were only a few guards yawning in boredom. It seemed that they had arrived very early.

Xu Fu wondered if he had come too early, when he saw a few people walking past him. A woman's silver bell-like laughter came into his ears, and the voice was somewhat familiar. When he looked at the person behind the woman, Xu Fu's face looked a little brighter. A surprise.

"Brother Ji? Ji Changhe!" Xu Fu shouted with some joy.

Among the people passing by, he knew two of them, brothers and sisters from the Ji family.

Although Ji Qingrou looked down on herself and made him look embarrassed in public, Xu Fu and Ji Changhe still got along very well. When meeting an old friend in a foreign country, you can't just say hello.

Ji Changhe heard someone calling and hurriedly stopped and turned around. When he saw Xu Fu behind him, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at it carefully, and then asked tentatively: "Are you, Brother Xu?"

"Why don't you recognize me yet?" Xu Fu said with a smile.

"It's really Brother Xu! Long time no see, you have changed so much!"

Ji Changhe also had a smile on his face. He had always felt guilty for causing Xu Fu to leave without saying goodbye because of his sister's incident. Now that he saw Xu Fu's current appearance, he felt relieved a lot.

"Chang He, who is this..." the leader of the group asked.

"Master He, please introduce me. This is an old friend of Changhe. His surname is Xu Mingfu. He is a strange man with both wisdom and courage."

"Brother Xu, this is Master He Lang, a famous alchemist in Shangyang City."

After Xu Fu listened to Ji Changhe's introduction, he cupped his fists and saluted. Although the man in front of him was ordinary in appearance and only as tall as Xu Fu's chin, he was very impressive and must be a very powerful alchemist.

"it is good!"

He Lang nodded slightly as a return gift.

"Hmph! You're only a third-level person, you have the nerve to call him an alchemist?" Yu Qinglan was naturally very dissatisfied when she saw He Lang being so rude, and said coldly to the side.

Only then did Xu Fu notice that Master He was indeed wearing a third-grade silver star ring. What Yu Qinglan said is true. Generally, only alchemists of level four or above are honored as "alchemists".

"Brother Xu, this is..." Ji Changhe's expression changed drastically and he hurriedly asked Xu Fu.

"This is my good friend, who is also an alchemist. My good friend speaks freely, so I hope you won't be offended." Xu Fu said a little embarrassedly. He was well aware of Yu Qinglan's temper, and he didn't feel any discomfort at all when he said what he just said. Unexpected, but refuting someone's face in public is bound to make people unhappy.

"A mere third grade? What a loud tone!"

Sure enough, after hearing this, He Lang had a trace of anger on his face. Although third-level alchemists are not rare, they are by no means a handful. At least in Shangyang City, he can still be ranked among the top. At this time, he is actually looked down upon by an outsider?

"I think you are blind! Brother He is the son of He Jin, the fifth-level alchemy master. It is only a matter of time before he reaches the fifth level. What qualifications do you two beggars have to comment here?"

Ji Qingrou saw He Lang's face looking ugly and hurriedly argued for him. When she first recognized Xu Fu, she herself was shocked. At this time, Xu Fu was no longer as skinny as before. He looked very pleasing to the eye, but no matter how pleasant he was, he was just a stinky beggar, unable to compete with the noble man next to him. Alchemist comparable.

"A stinky beggar?" Xu Fu's face twitched slightly, apparently letting Ji Qingrou poke a painful spot, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Isn't it? Don't think that you can control the wind and rain by climbing up to a small alchemist. Just wait in line here! Brother He, let's go, don't be like them!"

After Ji Qingrou said that, she took He Lang's arm and walked towards the "Kun" door. She also deliberately waved a gold-lettered invitation in her hand with a big "A" written on it.

The invitation with the word "A" is sent by the city lord's palace to the famous families in the city. When watching the Danyuan Conference, you can sit in the best seat. It is not something you can buy with money. In the past, someone even offered a hundred yuan at Yibaoxing. Jin Qugou, and now He Lang actually has it, shows his status in Shangyang City, but it is unclear whether he earned this status or relied on his father, a fifth-grade alchemist.

"Fifth-grade alchemist? Isn't there only one He Jin in Shangyang City?" Xu Fu suddenly realized that both of them had the surname He. Could it be...

Xu Fu pinched the ring in his arms and smiled bitterly in his heart: "It can't be such a coincidence!"

"Master He is here!"

"Hello, Mr. He!"

"Master He, long time no see!"

……

Passing by the long queue, someone immediately said hello. Ji Qingrou, who was beside her, also had a bright face, holding He Lang's arm with great enjoyment, and nodded in response to everyone's greetings.

Xu Fu retracted his gaze, breathed a long sigh of relief, smiled at Yu Qinglan, and then the two of them walked towards the door with the word "Qian".

"Stop, you can't enter here." A guard shouted sternly with an expressionless face.

"We can't enter? Then who can enter?" Xu Fu asked.

"An alchemist of level four or above."

The guard didn't know whether it was because of his nature or because he was in a bad mood, but his tone was very harsh.

"Snob!"

Yu Qinglan snorted coldly and walked to the door with the word "Qian" on her own.

"court death!"

Yu Qinglan's rude words immediately angered the guard. He cursed and slapped the face of the reckless offender.

None of the other guards spoke to dissuade them. They got up before dawn and stood here for almost an hour. It was boring, but they finally had some fun.

The slap was still several feet away from Yu Qinglan when it suddenly stopped. The few guards watching the excitement were a little surprised at first, but then they realized that it was not their brother who was showing kindness, but someone had grabbed his wrist.

Several guards stopped their previous joking, but no one saw clearly how the young man carrying a wooden box appeared there, and easily blocked a second-grade warrior.

Before the guards could decide whether to come forward to help, Xu Fu had already flung the man several feet away and fell heavily to the ground.

Several other guards who were still hesitant saw this and hurriedly grasped their weapons and gathered around. But look at me and I look at you. No one dares to be the first to take action.

Xin Kuan, who was lying on the table and taking a nap, raised his head in a daze and rubbed his eyes. Seeing the guards looking prepared, he suddenly woke up and hurriedly stepped forward. He understood the whole story in a few words and his head immediately jumped up. Breaking into a cold sweat.

"My lord, the City Lord's Mansion has failed to discipline me well. I hope you will atone for your sins." Na Xinkuan bowed and saluted. He was originally a cook in the city lord's palace. Because of his good cooking, he was appreciated by the city lord and became the head chef. In time for the Danyuan Conference, there was a shortage of manpower, so he was brought here to make records.

"These guards are so stupid! I don't even think about it. Who dares to break through the Qianzi Gate without any hesitation?" Xin Kuan cursed in his heart, but there was no word of blame on his lips. His attitude towards life is to keep a low profile and greet people with a smile, which also makes him very popular in the City Lord's Mansion.

"We're here to attend the Danyuan Conference."

Xu Fu's attack just now was much heavier than it looked. The catch and throw almost broke the guard's wrist. In addition to the guard being too rude, Xu Fu also knew that he was angry with Ji Qingrou's previous words. Although there was a look on his face Nothing happened, but he was still very angry.

However, after this throw, most of Xu Fu's anger was gone, and the man in front of him was very respectful. As the saying goes, "Don't hit the smiling person with your hand." Xu Fu knew that he could not continue to be arrogant.

"It turns out to be the alchemist, please move."

Xin Kuan led Xu Fu to a square table not far from the door, and asked timidly: "I wonder if the adults can let the little one see the ring? I can also make a record."

Xu Fu put his hand into his sleeve pocket, and when he took it out, there was a gold star ring on the ring finger of his left hand.

"Really a fourth-grade alchemist?"

There was a commotion among several guards. It was the first time for them to see such a young fourth-level alchemist. When they looked at the brother they worked with, their eyes were full of sympathy. If they annoyed the fourth-level alchemist, they must not have Good fruit to eat.

"My lord, please keep the token."

Xin Kuan carefully handed a sandalwood tablet to Xu Fu with both hands, and cursed the guard who had just taken action a dozen times in his heart. The city lord respected the alchemist very much. If he knew what happened today, this person would have to escape without death. layer of skin.

Xu Fu glanced at the token. There was a "two" written on it. This should be the order. Didn't expect someone to come earlier?

"And I."

Seeing that there was no fight, Yu Qinglan had no choice but to go to Xin Kuan to ask for the token.

"I'm really sorry, my lord, today's Alchemy Conference is only open to alchemists of level four or above." Xin Kuan carefully replied. The two people came together. It's hard to say what the relationship is, even if it's Yu Qing. Lan looked younger than Xu Fu, and he didn't dare to neglect him at all.

"You don't need to tell me, of course I know!"

Yu Qinglan stretched out her hand as she spoke. On her slender and white index finger, there was an unknown silver ring with two gold stars embedded in it.

"Fifth grade alchemist!"
