Chapter 170 Huo Lao Er Learns to Make Alchemy
Everything that happened in the Huo family's old house was like a stone dropped into a pond, which splashed a few ripples and then became calm again.
Everyone in the Huo family was still asleep, and had no idea that they had just walked through the gates of hell and almost would not see the sun tomorrow.
…
The next morning, the sun shone on the garden of the Huo family's old house, turning the green leaves into a dazzling red.
Huo Qinghuang was sweating profusely after a round of boxing. After a quick shower, he returned to the restaurant and waited for dinner.
As soon as I sat down, I saw Huo Lingfeng coming down from upstairs.
She turned her eyes, thought of a previous thought, and asked, "Are you going to work today?"
Hearing this, Huo Lingfeng looked outside in surprise.
This girl actually asked him whether he was going to work. Did the sun rise from the west?
"Go up, why not? What's wrong?"
Huo Lingfeng looked at her suspiciously and thought to himself, this girl is not acting normal today, could she be up to something weird again?
Thinking of this, his face turned serious and he said in a deep voice, "The banquet will be held the day after tomorrow. Don't go out these two days. Stay at home honestly. After the banquet is over, you and Jiayue will move to live next to the school. The old man bought a house for each of you there. Go and get familiar with the environment first."
"Why, you want to drive me away?"
Huo Qinghuang raised her eyebrows and looked at him teasingly.
"you!"
Huo Lingfeng made her so angry that she sat down on the dining chair and snorted, "I heard that all freshmen at Imperial Capital University have to live on campus in their first year. Grandpa donated a building to the school in exchange for the opportunity for you to live out. You still don't know what's good for you. If Grandpa heard this, he would be so angry that he would die."
“I see…”
Huo Qinghuang was stunned, but was thinking to himself that this was a good opportunity.
Living at home all the time, she couldn't do many things. If she lived outside, she could do whatever she wanted without having to listen to the old man's nagging.
However, she did not give up the idea in her mind. She ignored Huo Lingfeng's expression and said directly: "Don't go to work today. I have something to talk to you about."
As soon as these words came out, Huo Lingfeng's face suddenly changed.
He knew that this girl, who took the initiative to find him, was definitely going to cause trouble again.
"I have another patient today and I can't delay."
Having said that, he stood up, not even wanting to eat breakfast, and walked out.
"I'll teach you how to make the elixir."
Huo Qinghuang spoke lightly.
"What?"
Huo Lingfeng turned around suddenly, his face full of disbelief.
Alchemy?
Are they the kind of pills made by Taoist priests in an alchemy furnace, or the kind of pills made by traditional Chinese medicine practitioners?
Did he hear it right?
"You can also make pills?"
Huo Lingfeng looked at her suspiciously for a long time before asking uncertainly.
"Won't."
Huo Qinghuang said casually.
“…”
Huo Lingfeng gritted his teeth and said, "You're trying to trick me, right?"
This girl made me so angry that I had a headache early in the morning. It's such a sin!
"It's true that I don't know how to make pills, but what does that have to do with me teaching you how to make pills?"
Huo Qinghuang rolled her eyes at him, as if to say, how could you be so stupid that you don’t even understand this.
"You don't even know it yourself, how can you teach me?"
He has studied Chinese medicine in depth, and is particularly good at acupuncture, but if he could learn to make elixirs, he would also have an additional skill in treating illnesses.
Seeing this girl swearing so confidently, he thought she could really make the elixir, but he didn't expect that she was just fooling him.
Huo Lingfeng was so angry that his teeth were itching.
“Who says I can’t teach?”
Huo Qinghuang glanced at him, raised his chin slightly, and said as a matter of course: "As long as you practice according to the steps I told you, I guarantee you will learn it."
Back then, in order to have access to elixirs at any time and avoid being ripped off by those powerful people, she had specially kidnapped a young Taoist priest to teach her how to make elixirs.
As a result, she studied for three whole years, blew up one hundred and eighty alchemy furnaces, wasted countless elixirs, and made the young Taoist priest cry out of heartache, but she still couldn't refine a single elixir.
She suspected that the young Taoist priest was doing bad things on purpose and didn't teach him with all her heart, and she almost killed him.
The little Taoist priest was so frightened that he swore by heaven that every step he said was true, otherwise he would be struck by lightning.
After waiting for a long time and seeing that there was no thunder falling from the sky, she let the other person go embarrassedly.
In this way, she learned a lot of knowledge about alchemy, but unfortunately she was clumsy and could only chew elixirs raw, and she became the emperor by chewing them.
"cough!"
Recalling her past life, Huo Qinghuang felt embarrassed for once, and a blush appeared on her face.
Huo Lingfeng was shocked when he saw it.
Why is this girl blushing for no reason?
Is there someone you like?
No, how old is she? How can she be in a relationship at such a young age? !
He wanted to see which bastard dared to covet the daughter of the Huo family!
Huo Lingfeng's eyes flashed with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me, what do you want to do? I'll accompany you."
"Not going to work anymore?"
Huo Qinghuang looked at him in surprise.
"...I'm asking for leave!"
Huo Lingfeng's back teeth were sore from gritting their teeth, and he felt that sooner or later he would be pissed off to death by the other party.
"That's good enough. Let's go buy an alchemy furnace."
Huo Qinghuang then became happy and pulled Huo Lingfeng out.
"You really want to teach me how to make pills? Why don't you do something else?"
"I will really teach you how to make pills."
Huo Lingfeng was pulled by Huo Qinghuang and walked out of the door with full of suspicion.
Along the way, all kinds of speculations kept circling in his mind. What exactly is this girl up to?
Do you really want to teach him how to make pills?
But she herself doesn't know how to do it, so it doesn't sound reliable.
The two drove to an antique shop, which was said to have all kinds of strange and weird stuff, and of course there were also some imitation alchemy furnaces.
As soon as Huo Qinghuang entered the store, he looked around like an expert, and finally found an antique alchemy furnace in a corner.
"Boss, how much is this furnace?"
Huo Qinghuang pointed at the alchemy furnace and asked.
When the boss saw someone was interested in the alchemy furnace, his eyes lit up immediately and he introduced it enthusiastically: "This lady has a good eye. This is the treasure of our store. It is said to be carefully imitated according to the style of ancient alchemy furnaces. The craftsmanship is exquisite. If you buy it back, it will definitely be worth the money."
Huo Lingfeng rolled his eyes and thought to himself that this boss was obviously trying to fool people.
But Huo Qinghuang seemed very satisfied. After bargaining with the boss, he finally bought the furnace at a reasonable price.
"Take it, let's go back and prepare to make the elixir."
Huo Qinghuang stuffed the alchemy furnace into the car and said excitedly.
Huo Lingfeng was helpless and still felt that this matter was too ridiculous.
After returning home, Huo Qinghuang placed the alchemy furnace in an empty room and began to list the necessary medicinal materials.
There were many medicinal herbs in her cave, but those herbs had been nurtured for some time and were rich in spiritual energy, so she was reluctant to use them for practicing.
"You go and prepare these herbs, and I'll sort out the steps for making the elixir."
As Huo Qinghuang spoke, he wrote down a long list of medicinal herbs on a piece of paper.
Huo Lingfeng looked at the string of medicinal herbs with a frown on his face. He had never heard of some of them and didn't know if he could buy them.
Even if she buys it, looking at her attitude, can she make the elixir?
