Chapter 339 Half-Demon Fox's Black Moonlight Monk 40

Although Shen Xinran was reluctant in her heart, under Qiao Nangen's insistence, she still began the process of refining the elixir in the furnace.

At first, Qiao Nangen was full of patience in her teaching, and he carefully guided every detail of alchemy.

However, when he saw Shen Xinran produce failed products that looked like charcoal four times in a row, Qiao Nangen's patience finally reached its limit.

His voice echoed in the room like thunder: "Didn't I tell you to control the fire and pay attention to the temperature in the furnace?"

Shen Xinran smiled awkwardly, "I'll be more careful next time."

Qiao Nangen was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth. "You must continue refining. You are not allowed to leave until you have refined a complete pot of elixir."

After saying this, Qiao Nangen pinched his brows and returned to his room with a helpless look on his face. He was worried that if he stayed any longer, he would really be angered to death by this apprentice.

Shen Xinran stood in front of the alchemy furnace, frowning and thinking for a long time. When she used the iron pot to make elixirs, she would wrap a layer of gold element around the herbs.

But the last time she was refining the elixir, her gold element caused the furnace to explode as soon as it entered, so she did not use the gold element this time. Unexpectedly, the temperature of the flame directly burned the herbs into charcoal.

Or try using gold?

Shen Xinran lit a fire to refine the elixir, coating the herbs with a thin layer of gold. But soon the furnace began to shake. She quickly stepped back, only to hear a "bang" as the furnace exploded.

Shen Xinran began to think again. She now had two choices: either lower the temperature of the fire element to prevent the herbs from burning to ashes, or adjust the ratio of the gold element to prevent the furnace from exploding.

The explosion of the alchemy furnace scared Qiao Nangen, who was still drinking tea in his room. He hurried to Shen Xinran's room.

I saw Shen Xinran standing in the corner with a black and gray face, and the furniture and beds in the inn were covered with a layer of black gray.

All these damaged items must be compensated!

Qiao Nangen's anger escalated even further, "Wu Qingge! I asked you to make the elixir, not to tear down the inn!"

Chen Xinran grinned at Qiao Nangen, his white teeth standing out against his dark grey face. "Master, the alchemy furnace exploded. Can I still refine it?"

"Refine, of course!" Qiao Nangen waved his hand and took out hundreds of alchemy furnaces from his storage ring. He just couldn't believe that she could blow up all these alchemy furnaces!

Qiao Nangen turned and left. When he passed by Yuan Feiping's room, he didn't forget to order: "Help me guard her!"

Shen Xinran looked at the alchemy furnaces on the ground and thought to herself that her fire element could burn the herbs into charcoal even at the lowest temperature, so she could only refine the elixir by adjusting the ratio of the gold element.

As for the right ratio, you just have to keep trying.

Qiao Nangen lay in bed, ready to rest for a while, but heard the explosions getting louder and louder. He was so angry that his eyelids twitched. This little bastard really wanted to blow up all his alchemy furnaces!

…

Shen Xinran spent the whole morning successfully blowing up fifteen alchemy furnaces. Looking at the furnace fragments on the ground, she sighed, then put the furnace fragments into a storage bag and prepared to throw them away when she went out.

She opened the door a crack first. Fortunately, there was no one outside, so she could have lunch while throwing away the garbage.

Shen Xinran closed the door quietly. When she turned around, she saw Yuan Feiping standing at the door of his room. "Master said that you are not allowed to leave until you refine a complete furnace of pills."

Shen Xinran frowned slightly, "Master is not here again, just let me go out for dinner, I will be back soon."

Yuan Feiping shook his head and said firmly: "No."

He was like a wall, blocking Shen Xinran's way out.

Shen Xinran glared at Yuan Feiping, then turned and returned to his room. At this moment, footsteps were heard on the stairs, and Tan Jingxue came over carrying a food box.

Shen Xinran's eyes were immediately drawn to the food box, and anticipation flickered in his eyes: "Is this for me?"

Tan Jingxue nodded. "Otherwise, I don't eat these things. You are the only one who is greedy for food."

Shen Xinran immediately threw herself into Tan Jingxue's arms and said with a smile: "Senior Sister, you are so kind to me. Only you can imagine how much I crave food."

Yuan Feiping frowned, "It's not good for you to do this!"

Shen Xinran raised his chin and said, "Master only told me not to leave, but he didn't tell me not to eat."

After she finished speaking, she took the food box and went into her room.

What she didn't know was that there was a man holding a food box at the corner. He frowned, turned around and left the inn, and threw the food box in the alley outside.

Shen Xinran opened the lunch box that Tan Jingxue gave her and started eating her lunch. While she was eating, she did not forget to complain about Yuan Feiping.

"Brother, I think you are so inhumane. What is the most important thing in cultivation? Of course, the most important thing is your mood. If I don't eat, my mood will be bad. How can I possibly make good pills?"

Yuan Feiping retorted, "A cultivator should focus on cultivating their moral character, not their appetite. If you had used your meal time to refine the elixir, you might have succeeded long ago."

Shen Xinran shook his head and sighed deeply: "Brother, you have twelve hours a day, and ten of them are spent on refining pills and practicing. Let me ask you, are you happy?"

Yuan Feiping was stunned. "Why am I not happy?"

But after he finished speaking, I could tell he was genuinely unhappy. He was afraid of crowds and interacting with others, so he spent all his time practicing to appear busy.

Chen Xinran said seriously, "The biggest difference between humans and weapons is that humans have their own joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness. Humans will feel tired. You can't push yourself too hard. You have to learn to rest..."

As Shen Xinran was talking, she noticed that Yuan Feiping had fallen silent. When she looked up, she saw Yuan Feiping standing in the middle of the aisle, and a sky-blue light emanated from his body.

Shen Xinran blinked, "What's wrong with him?"

Tan Jingxue, who was standing by Yuan Feiping's side, replied, "He had an epiphany while chatting with you."

Shen Xinran: “…”

This is the second person she has seen who has had an epiphany!

When Qiao Nangen woke up, he wanted to check on Shen Xinran's alchemy progress, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Yuan Feiping with his back to him, in a state of enlightenment.

He quickly set up a barrier for the inn. The monk's enlightenment was hard-won and could not be disturbed by anyone, otherwise all the efforts would be wasted.

But no matter how fast Qiao Nangen moved, Tian Yunshen, who was two blocks away, still noticed something was wrong. He knew that Qiao Nangen was living there with his disciples.

Qiao Nangen was already a spirit, and sudden enlightenment would bring about a thunder tribulation. Therefore, it could only be one of his disciples who had achieved enlightenment. Although it was unknown which one, the four disciples he brought with him all had very young roots.

I never thought that Qiao Nangen's disciple would be so talented. Jealousy and hatred appeared in Tian Yunshen's eyes at the same time.

After Qiao Nangen finished all this, he walked over to Tan Jingxue and asked, "Why did he suddenly have an epiphany here?"

Tan Jingxue shook her head: "I don't know. Junior Sister was chatting with him, and as they were talking, he suddenly had an epiphany."

Qiao Nangen frowned, looked at Shen Xinran, and asked, "What did you talk about with him?"

Shen Xinran lowered her head, not daring to answer. If Qiao Nangen knew that she was brainwashing Yuan Feiping and telling him not to work so hard, he would definitely be pissed off to death.
