As soon as they entered the hall, the banquet was ready, with the leader of the Yunyan Sect at the top. Several elders sat on both sides. Gu Qingxi's position was arranged on the left, and her position was after an elder.
From this arrangement, it can be seen that Gu Qingxi, the first place, is valued.
When the leader of the Yunyan Sect saw Gu Qingxi coming, he smiled and waved at her.
The leader of the Yunyan Sect treated this little girl as a junior, and he liked this little girl from the bottom of his heart. After the alchemy was finished, the little girl did not take away the remaining medicinal materials because she felt guilty.
This matter was told to her by the disciple who was responsible for collecting the elixir, and this disciple happened to be the apprentice of the leader of the Yunyan Sect.
Because of this little thing, the leader of the Yunyan Sect had a good impression of Gu Qingxi. She believed that a person's character can be seen from a little thing. The character of this little girl, Gu Qingxi, must be very good.
Gu Qingxi smiled at the kind smile of the leader of the Yunyan Sect. She could feel that the leader of the Yunyan Sect was very gentle. It was not a pretended gentleness, but a gentleness from the heart that made people relax physically and mentally.
After Gu Qingxi sat down, the leader of the Yunyan Sect said to her softly: "There are fruit wines on the table, but you are still young, so you should drink tea."
Gu Qingxi nodded and responded: "Thank you for your concern, leader." Gu Qingxi understood that the leader of the Yunyan Sect still treated her as a child. But it seemed normal. It was said that the leader of the Yunyan Sect was more than 800 years old, and it was not strange to see her, a 17-year-old, like a granddaughter.
Soon, all the alchemists took their seats, and everyone had a smile on their faces. The generous gift of the Yunyan Sect's pill formula really made these alchemists feel grateful, and they also had a better impression of the Yunyan Sect.
For a while, the atmosphere in the hall was very lively. There were acquaintances of alchemists who were greeting and chatting, and the errand disciples of the Yunyan Sect were serving dishes and pouring wine. Several elders were also chatting with a smile.
The alchemist next to him was not very old either. He smiled and took the initiative to talk to Gu Qingxi: "Master Gu, congratulations on winning first place."
The alchemist sighed in his heart, you can't judge a person by his appearance. From the outside, you really can't tell that this little girl has such a talent for alchemy. At such a young age, she has shown her talent and can almost complete such a complex and mysterious recipe. He dared not look down on this little girl anymore, nor did he take advantage of his older age to show off, but respectfully called Gu Qingxi Master Gu.
Gu Qingxi also smiled and said thank you.
Then the alchemist wanted to discuss the experience of alchemy with Gu Qingxi, but Gu Qingxi didn't respond.
The alchemist suddenly realized and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Master Gu. I was so happy that I forgot myself. These are the alchemists' own thoughts and they are very precious. I asked them rashly. I'm really sorry..."
"Ah, no." Gu Qingxi interrupted the alchemist, forced a smile, and said embarrassedly, "It's not that I don't want to discuss alchemy experience with you, but I just learned alchemy not long ago. I only know five or six kinds of recipes. I really don't have any experience to talk about. I even have to weigh the herbs with a scale..."
The alchemist almost cracked on the spot.
He came back to his senses. Yes, Master Gu in front of him had just learned alchemy not long ago, and he couldn't even measure the herbs with his hands!
Listen to what she said?
He only knew five or six kinds of elixirs!
But such a newcomer got the first place!
He was able to make up that unusual incomplete recipe until only two herbs were left.
Talent is something that you really can't envy.
Comparing people makes you angry, and comparing goods makes you throw them away.
The alchemist turned his head and stopped talking to Gu Qingxi, drinking alone. The young mind needs to shrink and heal the wound.
"Look at you, how Versailles your words are! The tender mind of a well-qualified alchemist has been broken into pieces by you. You scumbag!" The voice of Wan Ling Patriarch Yi sounded.
Gu Qingxi: "??? What novel did you read this time?"
Wan Ling Patriarch: "Self-cultivation of the Female Sea King."
Gu Qingxi: "...Really, read less, the more you read, the more stupid you become." You even know Versailles, huh. And can a scumbag say such nonsense? I really want to beat him up. (Versailles generally refers to Versailles literature. Versailles literature, a popular word on the Internet, is a discourse mode of "showing off in a low-key way", also known as "Fanxue". This discourse mode first suppresses and then praises, openly criticizes and secretly praises, talks to oneself, and pretends to show off in a distressed and unhappy tone.)
After everyone was seated, the leader of the Yunyan Sect stood up, raised his wine glass, and said to everyone in the seat with a smile: "It is our honor to have the honor of hosting all the masters today. If you need herbs in the future, our Yunyan Sect will definitely sell them to you at the lowest price."
This made people feel comfortable. It did not mention any demands of the Yunyan Sect, but made such a promise. This naturally made the alchemists in the hall have a better impression of the Yunyan Sect.
The serving disciples immediately filled the guests' glasses with wine. Gu Qingxi's teacup was also filled with tea.
"A toast to everyone." The leader of the Yunyan Sect said with a smile.
Everyone in the seats stood up, raised their glasses, and smiled as they were about to drink the wine in their hands.
Gu Qingxi was holding the tea and was about to drink it.
The urgent voice of the Wanling Patriarch suddenly sounded: "Don't drink it! There is something in it!"
Gu Qingxi was stunned.
Something? What?
"Insect? Poison?" There was anxiety in the voice of the Wanling Patriarch, and there was still some uncertainty, "I'm not sure what's in it, but there is really something. Don't drink it! It's very dangerous!"
Gu Qingxi heard this, and suddenly raised his head and shouted to everyone in the hall: "Don't drink it!"
Although the Wanling Patriarch was sometimes unreliable, at this time, Gu Qingxi chose to believe him unconditionally! The Wanling Patriarch was stunned, but more moved. Qingxi actually trusted him so much at this time! As
soon as the voice fell, everyone in the hall was stunned, even the leader of the Yunyan Sect was stunned.
However, it was too late, and the other alchemists drank the wine in their hands. Hearing what Gu Qingxi said, everyone was confused.
The alchemist next to Gu Qingxi looked at her with a puzzled look on his face: "Master Gu, what's wrong?"
The voice of the Great Elder sounded at this time: "Miss Gu, our sect leader toasted you with wine, but not only did you not drink it, you were also so rude. What does that mean?" The Great Elder's voice was extremely cold at this moment.
