Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Eating candied haws.
Qin Zhou finally chose a restaurant with a quiet environment.
"You two, please go up to the second floor!"
On the second floor, there is a semi-private room. The room is not big, just enough for four people to dine. It is surrounded by bamboo fences on three sides and has an open arch on the left, which is elegant and ventilated. From a distance, you can also catch a glimpse of the opera stage in the middle of the restaurant.
"My dear guests, the food and drinks are ready. Please enjoy your meal~"
After the waiter served the dishes, he left quickly without even glancing at Wen Jue who was sitting opposite Qin Zhou.
Qin Zhou realized something. He stroked the teacup gently and asked, "Your face..."
"I'm wearing a mask. Can't you see the mask?" Wen Jue touched the mask covering his face.
Qin Zhou answered truthfully: "I can't see it."
Even the mask is a mosaic.
“Why do you wear a mask?”
"I just don't like the look in those people's eyes. If I find it annoying, I just wear a mask to save trouble." Wen Jue tried to brush it off, "What are you doing in the provincial capital?"
"Doing business. Now that the well is repaired and the land is planted, I have to think about how to sell the crops in the future."
"It seems that the spiritual essence is very useful." The land was also planted.
"Hmm. Is the Guyuan Pill useful?"
Hearing this, Wen Jue's expression changed.
Yes, Guyuan Pill.
If you don't mention him, you'll almost forget him.
Fifth-level Guyuan Pill. How did Qin Zhou refine the fifth-level Guyuan Pill?
Now think about it, let's not talk about what level of alchemy he is, just talk about the ingredients. Where did he get the ingredients? Even if he has the Ningxin Wood, if he wants to make a fifth-level Guyuan Pill, he must have other ingredients to assist...
Why does a soul that has taken over a mortal still have so many things on it?
Besides, the fifth-level Guyuan Pill cannot be refined just by having the raw materials.
What's more, Qin Zhou even used the furnace in the alchemy room.
...That’s the old man’s spiritual weapon.
At that time, Lu Wu used all his strength but was unable to shake the spiritual weapon in the slightest.
Wen Jue stroked the edge of the cup, slowly tightening his grip, "The pill is a good pill, but to me, it's just a candy bean ball."
"You can actually refine a fifth-level Guyuan Pill..." He lowered his eyes slightly, and his tone was quite sharp, "I am really curious, how did you refine a fifth-level Guyuan Pill."
Qin Zhou didn't answer.
He could sense that Wen Jue's tone was sharp. This "this Lord" was no longer an attempt to cover up the awkwardness. It was genuine, serious, and filled with unknown anger.
Qin Zhou didn't think anything else, just thought that the other party was still angry at him for touching his face abruptly last time.
"Speak." Seeing that he didn't say anything, Wen Jue became even more angry. His eyes were fixed on Qin Zhou's neck. He should really grab his neck and ask him who he was.
"That's how I refine it." Qin Zhou calmly poured tea into his empty cup without feeling guilty. "If I can refine it at the fifth level, I can refine it at the sixth level too."
"…What about the seventh level?"
Qin Zhou raised his eyelids and said, "It's not impossible."
He was so sincere that Wen Jue's anger subsided a lot.
In an instant, this corner of the box was covered by a barrier.
Qin Zhou looked at Wen Jue.
"If other people hear these words, I wonder if they will laugh you to death."
Qin Zhou smiled helplessly. He was not bragging.
"I don't want tea." Wen Jue pushed away the tea that Qin Zhou had poured for him.
Qin Zhou simply took his cup back.
Wen Jue waited for a while, but didn't see Qin Zhou return his glass with wine, so he asked, "What are you doing?"
"You don't want to drink?"
"I want to drink!"
"No wine." Qin Zhou said calmly, "Tea can reduce fever."
Wen Jue: “…”
These words seemed to mock him for being like a cat with its fur standing on end just now.
"Drink it." Qin Zhou pushed the teacup back to him.
Wen Jue picked up the cup, tilted his head back to drink, then slammed it heavily on the table.
Qinzhou, we have a long way to go!
“Tanghulu.”
"What?"
"I want to eat candied haws." Wen Jue looked out the window. At the corner outside the restaurant, there happened to be a vendor holding a whole pole of candied haws and selling them.
Qin Zhou paused, as if asking, "Does the Immortal Lord also crave those snacks?"
Wen Jue looked nostalgic, "The man who raised me used to buy them for me."
Hearing this, Qin Zhou glanced at the candied haws stand, then at Wen Jue, "Didn't your father tell you that eating too much candy will damage your teeth?"
Wen Jue: “…”
Your father? What father? No matter if he was that old man or not, he should have strangled Qin Zhou to death on the spot.
Just a second before Wen Jue got furious, Qin Zhou quickly went to buy candied haws.
Wen Jue saw him walk out, looked at the tea in the cup, and it seemed as if two little people were struggling in his mind -
Xiao Luyi: He definitely can’t be the old man. The old man used to love buying him candied haws!
Xiao Wen Jue: But he can make pills, seventh-grade pills!
Wen Jue covered his face.
Crazy.
…
In the end, two tall young men, who were more than 10,000 years old in total, walked from the beginning to the end of the street, each holding a candied haws.
But it’s not just because of the candied haws.
Wen Jue was originally dressed luxuriously, and had a narrow waist and long legs. At first glance, one would think he was the chief elder brother of some sect who had come down to earth. Even though he was wearing a fox mask, it did not prevent him from becoming the focus of the crowd.
Qin Zhou, at first glance, was about the same height as Wen Jue. In fact, he was taller than Wen Jue. With his handsome face, he also attracted a lot of attention.
Especially, these two people were walking together.
Each of them held a string of candied haws in his hand.
The necklace in Qin Zhou's hand belongs to Wen Jue.
Staring at Wen Jue's back, Qin Zhou thought -
Qin Zhou had not expected Wen Jue to suddenly appear in the provincial capital. Last time he offended him, Wen Jue had just walked away. With his temper, he would not show up so soon.
This sudden appearance may be due to something happening.
But if I ask, it seems like I am overstepping my authority.
"When are you going back?" Qin Zhou asked him.
Wen Jue: "I have read your fortune and found that you are approached by an evil spirit recently. This candied haws is my reward for protecting you."
He was just afraid that the Sword Sect's group of people would come and cause trouble for no reason. Although the Taoist companion's talk was pure nonsense from that spy, what if there were really people in the Sword Sect who were not smart enough to believe it...
"The soul is not burdened?"
"I haven't finished the candy balls yet." Wen Jue shook the bag around his waist.
After he said this, Qin Zhou became more certain of his previous guess.
But Qin Zhou didn’t understand either.
Where did this evil come from?
…
After dinner at the restaurant, Qin Zhou took Wen Jue to the Qin family's medicine shop in the provincial capital.
The medicine shop is very small and is nothing compared to the grandeur of the one in Pingcheng.
But a sparrow may be small, but it has all the organs.
Not long after, He Wenfeng from Yaoyue Sect also arrived, and his purpose was very simple.
"The Yaoyue Sect will hold a banquet in the provincial capital the day after tomorrow and has invited many alchemy sects and the Xuehua Pavilion. Mr. Qin must be present at that time."
Qin Zhou naturally agreed, and mentioned Chen San's talent test to He Wenfeng.
He Wenfeng also agreed with a smile.
…
So the next morning, Chen San followed He Wenfeng.
Of course, Qin Zhou also went.
Originally, it was thought that Wen Jue would not be able to stay in the lower realm for long, but unexpectedly, Wen Jue was there until Qin Zhou went for the talent test the next day.
"Chen San's talent test, what are you going to do?" Wen Jue asked Qin Zhou beside him, playing with his fan.
“I’ll test it too.”
He Wenfeng, who was walking in front, turned back when he heard this and said, "Young Master Qin also wants to take the test? If Young Master Qin doesn't have a sect he wants to join, then he doesn't need to take the test."
Qin Zhou: "I'm here now."
He Wenfeng:?
Qin Zhou didn't really "come here". The original Qin Young Master failed the talent test and ran away from home in anger, which led to the misfortune. Qin Zhou was lucky enough to have his body, so he was willing to fulfill his long-cherished wish for the original.
Young Master Qin's soul may no longer be here. Just let him be your peace of mind.
…
The group came to the place where the talent test was conducted.
The entrance looked like the imperial examination hall in ancient times. Two stone lions stood on either side of the tightly closed red painted gate.
Because it was not exam period, the surroundings were relatively quiet and there were almost no people around.
He Wenfeng took a few people to the small pavilion on the right side of the gate.
There is a small window in front of the pavilion, through which you can vaguely see someone sitting inside.
"Elder of Yaoyue Sect, He Wenfeng." He Wenfeng took out the token he carried with him.
The person in the pavilion took a closer look and immediately stood up, "Come in."
No one knew what that person did, but suddenly, the inconspicuous small door on the right side of the red gate was opened from the inside.
"Everyone, please follow me." He Wenfeng said.
Everyone followed.
Seeing this, the person in the small pavilion stretched his neck out from the window, glanced at the line of people, and finally set his eyes on Qin Zhou.
After seeing several people walk into the small door, he dared to lean against the window and mutter -
"Isn't this Qin Zhou? This kid really hooked up with a powerful person. He was brought here by the elder of Yaoyue Sect himself..."
"You know him."
"How could I not know him? He was ranked last in this year's talent test... Although he is not famous throughout the entire provincial capital, he is still very famous in this talent test." The man sighed, "After all, he can't even light up the ball of the spiritual root test. There may be only one such person in thousands of years."
After saying that, the man suddenly reacted, "Oh, no, who is talking?"
He looked back suddenly, but there was nothing behind him.
Wiping his eyes, he shook himself, "What the hell?"
"I think I heard it wrong..."
Little did he know that at this moment, a figure had already passed by his side. However, the figure was so fast that no one could catch a glimpse of it.
The man easily jumped over the two-person-high courtyard wall and stood on the wall. He stood with his hands behind his back and could see Qin Zhou and his group passing through the gate and into the corridor from afar.
He set his eyes on Wen Jue and Qin Zhou.
…
Suddenly.
Wen Jue turned around and looked in the direction where the sight came from, but there was no one there.
"What's wrong?" Qin Zhou asked him.
"fine."
Wen Jue didn't look back.
The fingers holding the fan handle tightened slightly.
Lu Xiao had just been beaten up by him, and even if he had ten times the courage he wouldn't dare to follow him again.
No matter how hard you think about it, the only people who could target him and Qin Zhou are those stupid people from the Sword Sect.
Moreover...the number of people who could escape from his sight could be counted on one’s five fingers.
Wen Jue snorted, he really came to be fierce.
