After dinner.
Chen An hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to take the initiative to talk about the test results.
"Ying'er, Yue'er, Yun'er, regarding the test for my husband to apply to join the Treasure Pavilion, I regret that I failed."
"It is said that the quality of the pill was a little poor, which caused it to fail the test."
"But the good news is that I still have one more chance to be tested again. This time, I am absolutely sure that I can pass the test."
"Well, Ying'er believes in her husband!"
"Yue'er also believes in her husband."
"Husband, you are the pride of our family. I am sure you will pass the test."
"Dad, I believe in you too!"
His wives and daughters all encouraged Chen An and were full of confidence in him.
Looking at his wife and daughters' confidence in him, Chen An felt for the first time how good it was to have a home. He never wanted to go back to his previous life of solitary and hard practice.
Although one person can feed the whole family and not have to worry about the safety of his family all day long, that kind of life is really too lonely.
Being so lonely that even if you live forever, you will probably find it boring.
In a blink of an eye.
The time came to evening.
Tonight it's my turn to spend the night in Gu Xinyue's room.
After a simple bath.
Chen An walked into Gu Xinyue's room, went to the bed and lay down beside her.
Gu Xinyue is very sensible. She comforts Chen An in the same way that Wen Zhiyun and Song Huaying comforted him during the day.
In order to please Chen An, she now actively uses many methods that she was reluctant to use before.
Chen An didn't say anything and kept his eyes closed the whole time. While enjoying Gu Xinyue's comfort, he was thinking in his mind why he failed the test.
I thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure it out.
In the end, he simply stopped hesitating and pulled Gu Xinyue off him, hugging her tightly to enhance the relationship between husband and wife, and no longer paying attention to the troubles in his heart.
Time quickly came to the next day.
After having breakfast, Chen An took a short rest and then set off for the Treasure Shop.
With the experience from last time, he didn't ask anything this time. He just had a brief chat with Manager Liu, and soon walked into the alchemy room to start refining the Qingling Pill.
Eight hours later, the Qingling Pill was successfully refined.
Success at the first try.
The success rate of making pills is very high and the efficiency is also good. The most important thing is that the quality of the pills is very high, higher than the Qingling Pills sold in the Treasure Shop.
"Master Chen, this time it's definitely safe!"
Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile on his face.
Upon hearing this, Chen An quickly waved his hand and said, "Manager Liu, please stop nursing me. You nursed me to death last time."
Soon, it was the second day of the test.
Just like yesterday, the Qingling Pill was successfully refined in eight hours.
The result was the same on the third, fourth, fifth, and so on, until the eighteenth day.
It only takes eight hours to refine a high-quality Qingling Pill.
In a blink of an eye.
The time has finally come for the long-awaited 21st day.
As early as yesterday afternoon, Chen An had already refined the 20 Qingling Pills.
And today, Manager Li will come over from the Treasure Pavilion to inspect the goods.
Before leaving for the Treasure Shop, Chen An brought his daughter back to the room and coaxed her to sleep. He used a sleeping spell to make her sleep soundly.
[You used the sleep-aiding technique on your daughter Chen Yuejian, making her sleep soundly. Your sleep-aiding technique proficiency +1.]
[Sleep Aid: Mastery (500/2500)]
“A breakthrough.”
Chen An felt no wavering in his heart.
If I hadn't been so busy these days, spending almost the entire day refining pills and often forgetting to coax my daughter to sleep, this sleep-aiding technique would have made a breakthrough ten days ago.
After putting my daughter to sleep.
Chen An came out of the room slowly.
In this test, every time he refined a Qingling Pill, he would mark the pill under the witness of Manager Liu and the Photo Stone.
Afterwards, he would borrow the spirit pigeon that Manager Liu usually used to contact the Treasure Pavilion to send the day's photo stone to Manager Li.
The purpose of doing this is to allow Manager Li to get the test results as soon as he arrives today, instead of asking him to take the photo stone back to slowly view and check it.
In short, Chen An will watch Manager Li give the test results with his own eyes today.
Eliminate any possibility of covert manipulation.
Soon, Chen An walked out of the house under the gaze of his wives and concubines.
When he was about to leave the yard, Song Huaying walked up to him and said, "My dear, it's still so early now. It's not long since the sun rose. The people from the Treasure Pavilion won't come that soon. You will definitely have to wait there again. Why don't you lie down in Ying'er's room for a while and let Ying'er relax you?"
After saying that, Song Huaying slightly tiptoed, leaned close to his ear and said in a low voice: "Husband, Ying'er thought of some new tricks last night, I'm sure you will like them."
Wen Zhiyun also advised after hearing this: "Husband, just listen to Ying'er. The Treasure Shop hasn't even opened yet. Why are you going there so early?"
Gu Xinyue didn't persuade him, but from her eyes, it could be seen that she also wanted Chen An to stay.
Chen An thought about it and felt that this was true. He felt that he was too impatient. This was not a good habit no matter what he did.
Thinking about this, he looked at his three beautiful wives and concubines and smiled, "Well, your husband will listen to you."
The three wives and concubines all smiled when they heard this, feeling that they were valued by their husbands.
[You listened to the opinions of your wives and concubines, and made them feel that you value them. Affection from your wives and concubines +1+3+1+4+5+2+0...]
…
At the same time.
In the core area, in a forest far away from residential houses.
Under the leadership of Gang Leader Zhu, the elders and deacons of the Bamboo Leaf Gang spent a whole month and finally set up a tight net here.
"Boss, both the formation and the trap have been set up and checked, and no problems were found."
An elder named Xiao reported.
Boss Zhu nodded, with a smile on his face all the time.
Afterwards, he turned his head to look at Pan Hui, who was a little nervous, and asked her, "Fellow Daoist Pan, did you remember everything I told you to do just now?"
Pan Hui looked at the casserole in her hand, her eyes full of struggle.
But when she thought of her husband who was still suffering on the battlefield, her struggling eyes quickly became firm and she said:
"Boss Zhu, I've remembered everything. I'm going to make Qingyi eat this pot of spiritual fish porridge with Soft Immortal Powder, and then I'm going to trick her into coming to this forest and trap her in the formation so she can't escape."
"Fellow Daoist Pan, do you know what the consequences of having a change of heart will be?"
"My husband and I will live a life worse than death."
"Very good, go find your sister Qingyi. I'll be waiting for your good news here."
"yes."
Pan Hui responded, lowered her head and left quickly.
Boss Zhu looked at her gradually receding back, and the smile on his face grew wider.
At this moment, he had already begun to imagine in his mind the pleasant scene that would happen next.
Shen Qingyi, who usually thinks highly of herself, kneels in front of him with her tongue sticking out, looking worse than a dog.
As he was thinking, a handsome figure suddenly flashed through his mind, instantly dimming the smile on his face.
He put away all the smiles on his face, looked at the elders and deacons in front of him and said, "I don't want to see that Chen Danshi appear in the bamboo forest again. Who among you will go?"
"Boss, I'll go!"
Upon hearing this, Elder Zhao from the Law Enforcement Hall immediately stepped forward, knelt on one knee and volunteered.
Boss Zhu looked at him deeply, knowing what he was thinking. He looked down at him and said, "Elder Zhao, after you get rid of Master Chen, bring Wen Zhiyun to me immediately. I will enjoy her first, and then you can enjoy her. Do you understand?"
"I understand!"
"Go ahead."
"Yes, boss!"
After Elder Zhao finished speaking, he immediately stood up and left quickly with several of his deacons, rushing towards Chen An's house impatiently.
Now, he just wanted to kill Chen An as soon as possible, and then slowly enjoy his three beautiful wives and concubines.
