Chapter 1: The Mirror of Romance



Chapter 1 Fengyue

Baojian Tengshe Mountain, Pegasus Collection.

Gao Xian, who was lying against the wall, trembled slightly and woke up suddenly from the nightmare.

The first thing that caught his eye was a brass furnace with a somewhat strange shape. It was one meter high and looked like a kettle without a spout. It had three toad-leg-like legs and a brick pedestal underneath.

There is a fire-making passage under the pedestal, and a flue is connected to the chimney. To be more precise, this is a wood-burning stove with a somewhat complicated structure.

Gao Xian stayed there for a while before sighing. This alchemy furnace with a somewhat odd shape was what he used to make a living.

It was already the third day since he had traveled through time. He had adapted to his new body and new name, but had not been able to adapt to his new identity: alchemist.

Gao Xian stretched out his left hand and silently said in his heart: "Come and see."

An elegant bronze mirror suddenly appeared in his hand, with four characters engraved on the handle: Fengyue Baojian.

This Fengyue Baojian is a peripheral product of "Dream of Red Mansions". It was a birthday gift given to him by a friend. Somehow it traveled through time with him.

At this moment, a handsome young face was reflected on the smooth mirror.

Gao Xian usually just reads Water Margin fan fiction and watches low-budget movies, and can't think of any suitable words to describe his current appearance.

The sword-like eyebrows, the bright eyes, the handsome face, these are all too empty.

I can only say that he looks a bit like a young male movie star, handsome and heroic. Especially his black eyes, which are so bright that they seem to sparkle...

It feels like there is a professional lighting engineer lighting the room! The only drawback is that my face is pale, I have dark circles under my eyes, and I don’t look very healthy.

"If I had this face, I could stay single for more than 30 years!"

Gao Xian touched his face somewhat narcissistically, and was filled with sighs when he thought about the days when he could only rely on his hard-working hands.

This was the only thing he was satisfied with about his journey through time, a young body full of vitality, a handsome face full of hope! Lines of words appeared on the mirror of Fengyue Baojian.

Gao Xian studied it for two days and basically figured out the purpose of the Fengyue Baojian.

This mirror can reflect his personal status and digitize various abilities. The problem is that his alchemy skills are in a gray state and cannot be used.

Gao Xian tried many methods, but was unable to activate the alchemy or change the data in the mirror.

According to the memories left by the original owner, he was an alchemist in the pharmacy!

The pharmacy provides medicinal materials, and he provides pills.

He now owes the drug store 500 Huiqi Pills, Guyuan Pills, and Bailu Pills each.

He also had a very big trouble: the master secretly exchanged a batch of elixirs he had refined for the Red Blood Pill.

The Red Blood Pill is a very powerful Qi training pill. The original owner took the Red Blood Pill and broke through to the second level of Qi training, but somehow he died and left his body to him.

The large amount of medicinal materials consumed in alchemy has become a huge loss. How can he explain to the owner of the medicine shop?

The more serious problem is that the original owner's memory is incomplete, including the memory related to alchemy.

Even if he had enough medicinal materials, he was unable to refine pills now.

Calculating the time, he should have delivered the first batch of pills five days ago.

He didn't know what the consequences would be if he couldn't hand over the pills, but he thought it would be a bad outcome!

When Gao Xian was thinking of a solution, he heard the gate of the courtyard being pushed open. He was startled and hurried to the window to look out.

Through the cracks in the window paper, Gao Xian saw the short and fat shopkeeper Zhu, and the busty proprietress Zhu Qinnan behind him.

The two stood together, with a height difference of almost two feet. One was fat, the other was tall. This match made a deep impression on people. Gao Xian also recognized the other person at a glance.

Gao Xian sighed and tugged at his wrinkled Taoist robe. He took a deep breath and pushed the door open to greet the visitors.

"Brother Zhu, sister-in-law, please come in and sit down..."

Gao Xian smiled the professional smile that he had honed over twenty years of experience as a middle-aged office worker, and greeted the other person politely and warmly.

Xiao Gao, how are you doing?" The fat-headed and big-eared shopkeeper Zhu asked with a smile.

Gao Xian said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Brother Zhu, I am in a hurry to break through to the second level of Qi training. The pill is not ready yet. I will send it to you as soon as it is ready."

Shopkeeper Zhu smiled and said, "Xiao Gao, cultivation must be done step by step. Don't be impatient. If someone gets possessed, it could be fatal."

The proprietress standing by had a cold and hard expression on her face. She didn't say anything, but she just stood there with a sullen face, which was quite oppressive.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

Gao Xian felt guilty. He was not short. He was at least 1.85 meters tall. But he looked half a head shorter than the proprietress when standing in front of her.

In his memory, this proprietress was at the ninth level of Qi training, extremely good at breaking bones, and had extremely high fighting power.

However, the proprietress has long eyebrows and deep eyes, three-dimensional facial features, tight and smooth wheat-colored skin, and high breasts and long legs that cannot be concealed even by the loose blue Taoist robe.

She has deep facial features, slightly raised eyebrows, and emerald green pupils that are like cat's eye gems, very beautiful.

Only after taking a closer look did Gao Xian find that the proprietress was very pretty. There was such a beauty in this place covered with loess!

Out of man's instinct and his repressed nature of more than thirty years, he couldn't help but take one more look.

The proprietress frowned slightly, her beautiful green eyes turned slightly, and she gave Gao Xian an ambiguous look.

"What does this mean, Madam Boss?"

Gao Xian didn't understand the meaning of this look, but it didn't affect his obedience. He explained humbly, "Brother Zhu, I'm anxious to break through my cultivation level so that I can make better pills.

"The higher your cultivation level, the better you can control the temperature, and the higher the quality of the pills you refine."

Gao Xian apologized with a smile: "Brother Zhu, sister-in-law, I didn't delay on purpose. Please give me a few days, a few days."

Shopkeeper Zhu waved his hand and said, "Even if you don't consider your master's face, it's okay to delay for a few days."

His fat face was full of amiable smiles, as if this was no big deal at all.

"Will ten more days be enough for you?"

Gao Xian was relieved that Manager Zhu was so easy to talk to.

He smiled and nodded, "Okay, ten days is enough. I'll send it to you when it's done."

"Make the elixir well, and don't let your master down."

Shopkeeper Zhu patted Gao Xian on the shoulder and gave him a few words of encouragement, acting like an elder caring for the younger one.

"If you have any problems in life, you can tell me...Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. You don't have to see me off."

Gao Xian hurriedly followed to see the guest off. Shopkeeper Zhu walked out of the door smiling and was quite polite to Gao Xian.

Zhu Qinnan, who was following behind Shopkeeper Zhu, looked at Gao Xian deeply before leaving.

That look seemed to have some complicated meaning...

Gao Xian was confused. Did his sister-in-law like him? As the saying goes, nothing tastes better than dumplings, but I am not that kind of person! No matter what he thought in his heart, Gao Xian bowed his head respectfully on the surface and sent the shopkeeper Zhu and his wife out.
