Chapter 47: Cynomorium Pill
"What do you want to tell me?" Mu Chen took Ye Shi to the secret room with anticipation and asked Ye Shi.
Ye Shi glanced around to make sure no one was eavesdropping, then said, "Do you need strange fire to become an alchemist?"
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Yes! If we have the strange fire, it will go much more smoothly."
"I think I probably know the whereabouts of a strange fire." Ye Shi said.
Mu Chen's eyes narrowed suddenly, "You know, how did you know?" If the news about the strange fire was sold, it could be sold for at least tens of thousands of stones.
Ye Shi shrugged and said, "The diary my parents left me seems to have records about the Qingming Flame."
Mu Chen's heart skipped a beat. Qingming Flame, why was it Qingming Flame? The strange fire that cannon fodder Ye Yanxing found for Lan Ruofeng was Qingming Flame.
"Shi Tou, do you know a man named Ye Yanxing?" Mu Chen asked.
Ye Shi looked at Mu Chen suspiciously and asked, "How do you know my real name?"
"Ye Yanxing is your real name, so why did you change it to Ye Shi?" Mu Chen said with a frown.
Ye Shi puffed out his cheeks and said, "When I was a child, I had a serious illness. My aunt said that my life was too fragile and I should give myself a humble name so that I could be raised more easily. So she changed my name to Ye Shi, which means tough as a stone."
Ye Shi lowered his head. His serious illness was actually caused by poisoning. Ye Shi felt that the problem should be with the aunt who suggested changing his name. However, his father would not care even if he told him, so Ye Shi simply did not say anything.
Mu Chen's face was pale. Ye Shi looked at Mu Chen's face and couldn't help feeling worried.
"What's wrong with you?" Ye Shi stretched out his hand.
Mu Chen grabbed Ye Shi's hand and said, "Shi Tou, you must stay away from Lan Ruofeng from now on. You must stay away from him, understand?"
Ye Shi looked at Mu Chen's expression, which was as if he was facing a great enemy. Although he was puzzled, he nodded and said, "Oh, okay."
Mu Chen immediately hugged Ye Shi in his arms, and Ye Shi was held tightly by Mu Chen.
Ye Shi looked at Mu Chen's reaction and couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, "Okay, I'll stay away from him. He seems to know some witchcraft."
Mu Chen clenched his fists. That was not witchcraft, but the original work in the dark was causing trouble.
Ye Shi took out a diary beside him and said, "This is what my parents left me. This is the map of the Qingming Flame."
Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi, with a soft light flashing in his eyes. In the original novel, Ye Yanxing was a stubborn person, and once he fell in love with someone, he would not change easily. Now that he had traveled through time, this time, he must make sure that the person Ye Shi was stubborn about became himself.
Mu Chen looked at the map and said, "Thank you."
Ye Shi looked at Mu Chen and said, "We still don't know whether this map is real or not."
"I'm very happy that you have this intention." Mu Chen said with a smile.
"Gurgle." Ye Shi's face flushed and he looked at Mu Chen helplessly.
Mu Chen took Ye Shi's hand and said, "Let's go."
Ye Shi followed Muchen out.
"Shi Tou is here!" Mu Yuanfeng said indifferently to Ye Shi.
Seeing Mu Yuanfeng, Ye Shi couldn't help but feel a little reserved and said, "Hello, Uncle Mu."
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Ye Shi and said, "Shi Tou, I've already told the housekeeper that from now on, you can receive 300 yuan stones of pocket money every month, just like the younger generation of the Mu family."
"Ah! That's not good." Ye Shi couldn't help but widen his eyes. He was a direct descendant of the Ye family. Logically speaking, he should have some pocket money. However, Ye Shi was not valued at home, and his subordinates flattered the powerful and bullied the weak. After Ye He passed away, Ye Shi's pocket money was completely deducted.
"You are Chen'er's fiancée, and this is as it should be. You two are too young. Let's talk about marriage after you are promoted to martial artists." Mu Yuanfeng said.
Ye Shi blushed and said, "There's no rush."
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Ye Shi and said, "Shitou, you don't know that when Chen'er was young, he didn't want to make progress. I was worried that he would lose his ambition due to playing around, so I gave him some Suoyang pills."
Ye Shi widened his eyes and looked at Mu Chen in disbelief. The Suoyang Pill was a special pill that could make people impotent. However, after the cultivator entered the martial arts stage, the pill would automatically release its effect.
A cultivator will cultivate faster if he maintains his virginity. Some large families give this medicine to their disciples to prevent their offspring from becoming addicted to beauty at a young age.
Mu Chen blushed and glanced at Mu Yuanfeng with some resentment. "Father, we are going to eat."
Mu Yuanfeng shrugged and said, "Okay, then go ahead."
Ye Shi took Mu Chen's hand and couldn't help but say, "Your father gave you the Suoyang Pill! So, you've been impotent since you were a child."
Mu Chen rolled his eyes and said, "It's only temporary." It's no wonder the original owner and Mu Yuanfeng weren't close! Mu Yuanfeng was too cruel.
Ye Shi opened his eyes wide and said, "If you can't become a martial artist, you will be impotent for the rest of your life."
"Don't worry, I will become a martial artist as soon as possible." Mu Chen said.
Ye Shi tilted his head and said, "What if your strength never improves?"
Mu Chen's face darkened as he asked, "Why can't I get promoted?" He wasn't the idiot that the original owner was. He was the academic master, Mu Chen! If he hadn't traveled through time, he would have won the Nobel Prize in Physics in no time.
Ye Shi shrugged and said, "Who knows?"
"Let's go. Let's not talk about this anymore." Mu Chen said, holding Ye Shi's hand.
Ye Shi would occasionally steal glances at Mu Chen and mutter, "I never expected that! I never expected that."
Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi and said, "What are you mumbling about?"
Ye Shi shrugged and said, "I'm just surprised that you're still a virgin."
Mu Chen: “…”
"The food is getting cold, let's go." Mu Chen said unhappily, pulling Ye Shi.
Ye Shi stumbled and caught up with Mu Chen.
