Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 366: Seeing an Old Friend Again
Not long after, an exquisite small flying boat descended from the sky and came in front of Lin Qianxing.
Several people in blue armor came down from above .
"Excuse me, are you the one who received the reward?" After looking at Lin Qianxing for a while, one of them asked.
"It's me." Lin Qianxing nodded.
"Then please get on board." Someone invited Lin Qianxing.
Hearing the voice, Lin Qianxing stepped onto the flying boat.
After entering, someone served Lin Qianxing fruits, tea and snacks, and then the flying boat headed towards the Guozhu Mansion.
Soon, the flying boat docked at the port of Guozhu Mansion.
The Guozhu Palace was magnificently built, with numerous sentries and strict defenses.
Ordinary people entering have to go through at least several inspections.
But under the leadership of these people in blue armor, Lin Qianxing almost drove straight into the core area of the Guozhu Mansion.
Then a woman in green took over from those wearing blue armor and led Lin Qianxing further inside.
After walking for a while, we arrived at a guest room.
The woman in green took out a contract and handed it to Lin Qianxing, saying, "Healing the national pillar is of great importance, please don't mind, sir."
"I understand." Lin Qianxing nodded.
He signed his name on the contract without even looking at it.
The contract turned into points of light and dissipated, proving that it was effective.
Seeing this, the woman said to Lin Qianxing: "Sir, please follow me."
This time, there were no detours. Not long after walking, Lin Qianxing was brought to the outside of a bedroom.
There were also several armored guards standing at the door.
The woman in green brought Lin Qianxing here and stopped, then said, "Sir, please go in. Zhuang Guozhu is inside."
Lin Qianxing nodded slightly, then stepped inside.
It is obvious that this set of procedures has been simplified again and again.
I guess they are just trying to give it a try, and as long as someone dares to accept the reward, they will give him a chance.
Of course, you have to consider your own abilities. After all, you are one of the seventy-five pillars of the Shen Yao Dynasty. Anyone who is too swindling will definitely not end up well.
After Lin Qianxing entered the bedroom, he took a look at the surrounding decoration.
Although he is a powerful pillar of the country, the decoration in this bedroom is quite simple.
It's just a bed, a cabinet, and some daily necessities.
Lin Qianxing discovered that there were surveillance cameras in the four corners of the room, and it was obvious that he was still under observation.
And on that bed, there was a man lying with his eyes closed and a dark face.
This person was none other than the former palace master of Kanghua Academy, Zhuang Ji, Zhuang Chuanye.
After he ascended to the upper realm, he ended up in the Shen Yao Dynasty.
After some hard work, Zhuang Ji became one of the seventy-five pillars of the Shen Yao Dynasty and was in charge of a state.
Unfortunately, his luck was not good enough.
More than a year ago, he fought with the ancestor of the Scale Clan and was accidentally hit by his trick. Although he seriously injured the ancestor, he was also poisoned.
This poison is not an ordinary poison, but a deadly poison from a fifth-level lower-level Taoist skill. It contains a strong power of rules, and even a fourth-level great physician cannot dissolve it.
King Ao Quan tried many ways to resolve the situation but failed. If it weren't for the advice of his ministers, Ao Quan would have planned to attack the Scale Tribe himself to ask for a solution.
Lin Qianxing came to Zhuang Ji and said, "Look, I told you not to ascend so early, but you refused to listen."
Hearing the voice, Zhuang Ji slowly opened his eyes and looked at Lin Qianxing. Then, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes, and he said, "It's you who came. I thought the breath was so familiar. I am very lucky to be able to reunite with my old friend before I die. Unfortunately, I am in danger now and cannot drink with you..."
"What do you think I'm here for?" Lin Qianxing asked with a smile.
“I know you have great magical powers, but the poison in my body is hard to cure.” Zhuang Ji said, “This is the essence of the poison that the ancestor of the scale clan has accumulated for nearly a thousand years. It is no worse than the poison of the ancient green-scaled snake. I have already checked and found that the antidote for this poison is the red jade pine cones of the ten thousand year old Gusang pine. However, that thing has been extinct for hundreds of thousands of years and no longer exists in Lingyuantian today…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qianxing took out a pine tree potted plant as thick as an adult's arm from the gourd, with three pine cones that looked like red jade hanging on it.
"It takes 1,500 years for a pine tree to grow one inch, 3,500 years for it to bloom, 3,500 years for it to bear fruit, and 3,500 years for it to mature... This is actually a 44,000-year-old pine tree?" Zhuang Ji's dark face was full of surprise, but then he said with some sadness: "If you had come half a year earlier, I would have been cured of this poison. Unfortunately, it has now infected my entire body, even my true soul has been infected. Even this red jade pine cone may not be able to save me..."
"Don't worry, since I'm here, there will definitely be a way to save you." Lin Qianxing said with a smile.
When Zhuang Ji heard the voice, a glimmer of hope rose in his heart.
"Please save me, brother." Zhuang Ji said weakly.
"Brother Zhuang, please wait and see what I can do." Lin Qianxing said with a smile.
After saying that, he waved his hand and took out the alchemy pot that he had been carrying with him from the lower world.
Then Lin Qianxing picked all three pine cones from the Gusang pine and threw them into the alchemy pot.
"We have the main ingredients, but we're still missing some condiments. Brother Zhuang, do you mind if I take some from you to make the pill?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"If it can save my life, please take it, brother." Zhuang Ji nodded.
Lin Qianxing came to the wall and said, "This wall ash is the essence of refined earth, and it should be the material for a pill."
After saying that, Lin Qianxing casually scraped off half a pound of wall dust and put it into the alchemy pot.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing looked at the foot of Zhuang Ji's bed and said, "This is a thousand-year-old tree with infinite vitality. It can be used as a material for making an elixir."
After he finished speaking, a piece of Zhuang Ji's bed leg broke off, causing one corner of his bed to tilt downward.
The guard who saw this scene through the video transmitter was about to break in, but was stopped by Zhuang Ji.
Unlike those who don't know what's going on.
Zhuang Ji was knowledgeable and he understood that Lin Qianxing was collecting the Taoist equipment.
These may seem like ridiculous actions, but they are the essence of alchemy.
Those who collect materials from all over the world and take hundreds of years to make a furnace of pills are all low-level alchemists.
When the mood strikes, he will use whatever he likes to make pills. This is a truly amazing master of alchemy.
" With , how can we lack gold and water?" Lin Qianxing murmured.
After saying that, he threw a fruit knife placed in the room into the alchemy pot, and then poured all the water in Zhuang Ji's vase by the window into the alchemy pot .
"Brother Zhuang, can you lend me some light?" Lin Qianxing looked at Zhuang Jidao.
"How can I borrow it?" Zhuang Ji asked.
"Brother Zhuang, think about the days you spent suffering under the spell of this poison. Wouldn't you be furious?" Lin Qianxing said.
Zhuang Ji thought about what Lin Qianxing said and felt a little irritated.
Lin Qianxing stretched out his hand and pinched Zhuang Ji's forehead. A red flame appeared at his fingertips and was quickly thrown into the alchemy pot by Lin Qianxing. At this moment, everything in the pot was burning.
He quickly closed the pot, blew on his fingers and said, "Brother Zhuang is really a bit angry. He almost burned my hand. But it's okay. Only with such true fire can a pot of good pills be produced."
"Thank you for your concern, brother." Zhuang Ji said.
At Guozhu Mansion, the guards who saw this scene all had strange looks on their faces.
Over the past year or so, they have seen quite a few people coming to treat Mr. Guozhu, and they have become familiar with all the methods used.
There were some alchemists among them, but this was the first time someone like Lin Qianxing appeared.
It's so bizarre.
How can one make elixir using things like wall putty and bed legs?
Snap, snap, snap~!
After waiting for a while, the lid of the alchemy pot trembled, and an enticing aroma of alchemy emanated from it.
Lin Qianxing smiled and said, "The time has come."
After saying that, Lin Qianxing reached out and opened the lid of the pot. A brilliant light flashed, and infinite Taoist energy was drawn in, among which three thumb-sized red crystal pills appeared.
Lin Qianxing flicked his finger, and three pills were swept up by the air flow and lined up at Zhuang Ji's lips.
"Brother Zhuang, take the pill orally." Lin Qianxing said.
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Ji did not hesitate and opened his mouth directly.
A pill rushed directly into his mouth.
Immediately, the blue-black color on Zhuang Ji's face quickly faded.
He seemed to have recovered to the state he was in when he was first poisoned.
He understood what she meant and opened his mouth again, swallowing the second pill.
The poison in his body was quickly neutralized and transformed into substances that were beneficial to him.
After taking the third pill, Zhuang Ji's depleted energy was replenished and his strength reached a new level.
There was a gleam in his eyes, and he quickly restrained his enhanced aura.
Immediately, Zhuang Ji stood up from the bed and bowed to Lin Qianxing, saying, "Zhuang Ji thanks Brother Dao for saving my life."
"I didn't say the rescue was in vain." Lin Qianxing said with a smile.
"Of course. Brother Dao, whatever you want, as long as Zhuang Ji has it, just ask for it." Zhuang Ji said.
"When old friends meet, it's natural to have a good feast." Lin Qianxing said.
“Of course, of course!!”
Zhuang Ji's face was filled with even more joy, and he immediately called the servants in the mansion and asked them to prepare the best wine and food.
In the reception room, Zhuang Ji poured cup after cup of spirit wine for Lin Qianxing. Having been suppressed for a long time, he inevitably felt a little unhappy, and now he naturally wanted to vent.
Halfway through the banquet, Lin Qianxing suddenly asked, "Brother Zhuang, why did you confront the ancestor of the scale clan?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhuang Ji paused slightly.
" This matter involves a lot of things, so it's difficult for me to explain it." Zhuang Ji said in a deep voice.
He could have just fooled Lin Qianxing with some nonsense, but facing his savior, he really couldn't do such a thing. He could only say it frankly.
"In that case, I'll have to take it for a while." Lin Qianxing said with a smile.
"Brother, don't blame me for not reminding you. This matter is of great importance and cannot be easily solved." Zhuang Ji said.
Lin Qianxing said nothing. He picked up a chopstick and suspended it in the air, then let it fall onto the table.
The moment it landed on the table, it was hit by a gust of wind and began to roll continuously.
Lin Qianxing looked at the chopsticks carefully and suddenly asked, "Hetian?"
When Zhuang Ji heard the voice, his eyes widened instantly, his face full of shock.
