Ji Qingzhuo chose a dress she liked. Although she used to wear plain dresses before, it was just a habit. She wouldn't mind if she wore brighter colors.
After changing her dress, she came out to find Shen Rongyu, opened the door, and saw him sitting in the small pavilion in the courtyard teasing Mao Mao, holding a carrot and feeding it.
Mao Mao actually doesn't recognize the owner very well. Whoever feeds it will eat it, and it is quite happy to eat.
Ji Qingzhuo waited for Shen Rongyu to finish feeding a whole carrot before calling him, "Senior Brother Xiaoyu, let's go."
Shen Rongyu raised his hand, his hand holding the carrot was separated by a layer of airflow, without soiling his fingertips, he nodded and walked out of Baishui Island with Ji Qingzhuo.
Ji Qingzhuo studied the letterhead in his hand, why did Yingxiu come to her, she was not interested in refining medicine or anything.
"You are acquainted with the maid of Princess Zeguo?" Shen Rongyu suddenly asked on the Snow Burial Sword.
Ji Qingzhuo shook his head: "No."
"She's not a good person." Shen Rongyu commented.
"I think... it's okay." Ji Qingzhuo thought, the owner of Yingxiu was more difficult to get along with.
Shen Rongyu didn't speak anymore, he glanced at the letterhead in Ji Qingzhuo's hand, and then looked into the distance.
The field for the assessment of the medicine refining class is smaller, and many monks have gathered here. Since Ji Qingzhuo is not a disciple participating in the assessment, she is finally not the focus of attention.
In this regard, Ji Qingzhuo was very pleased, she hid behind Shen Rongyu and walked into the crowd.
However, Shen Rongyu chose the position in the middle, left and right, up and down were the elders of Xuan Yunzong, Ji Qingzhuo didn't want to follow, but if she didn't follow Shen Rongyu, she would be even more at a loss in the noisy crowd.
So she could only sit next to Shen Rongyu, and as soon as she sat down, she felt a sharp gaze from her side.
Turning her head, she saw that Ye Duanhong was sitting not far from her. He only glanced at her, and then turned his attention to the site of the medicine refining assessment.
Out of courtesy, Ji Qingzhuo called him, "Hello, Elder Ye."
Ye Duanhong nodded and replied coldly, "Mm."
Then he focused on the direction of the medicine refining assessment, and did not pay attention to Ji Qingzhuo.
Ji Qingzhuo was a little afraid of him, so she whispered to Shen Rongyu, "Senior Brother Xiaoyu, why is Elder Ye here?"
"Elder Ye is the elder in charge of leading these new disciples, and he takes care of the ordinary disciples who were not picked up by the elders of Xuan Yunzong, so he watches all of these assessments." Shen Rongyu explained, "When the beast-keeping class is assessed, , he went too."
"Ah..." Ji Qingzhuo didn't expect Ye Duanhong to be there, so why didn't she see him on the day of the beastmaster class assessment.
Seemingly feeling Ji Qingzhuo's question, Shen Rongyu explained it to her: "Many disciples are afraid of Elder Ye, so he hid his figure in the viewing area, and the disciples below can't see him, so as not to affect them. "
"That's it." Ji Qingzhuo understood Ye Duanhong's approach.
At this time, the medicine refining assessment officially began. The assessment content is based on the spiritual materials provided by the elders, plus the three spiritual materials that they brought with them, to test what kind of medicinal herbs the disciples can make in three hours. The grading score for refining the medicinal pill.
The disciples who participated in the assessment gathered around the medicine cauldron that had been distributed, and began to make medicine in full swing.
Shen Rongyu talked to Ji Qingzhuo one after another, Ji Qingzhuo was dull, and he was a taciturn person, but he liked to tease Ji Qingzhuo very much.
"Why didn't Zhuo Zhuo choose to study medicine refining?" Shen Rongyu asked casually, looking at the disciples who were controlling the temperature in the medicine cauldron.
Ji Qingzhuo admitted the fact honestly: "Senior Brother Xiaoyu, if I come, the medicine tripod will explode."
Hearing this, Shen Rongyu chuckled lightly: "That's why you prefer spirit beasts, don't you?"
"Yes." Ji Qingzhuo nodded, "They are very cute."
Shen Rongyu's gaze turned to the disciples in the medicine refining assessment venue. He looked at Yingxiu and Qiu Mingxue, two disciples from Zeguo.
"Zuozhuo thinks, who of these two is more skilled?" Shen Rongyu looked at the two girls with a faint gaze, but there was a hint of vigilance in the depths of her eyes.
"Yingxiu and Qiu Mingxue?" Ji Qingzhuo looked at the almost identical medicine refining movements of the two, thought for a moment, and then gave his answer, "Senior Brother Xiaoyu, I think it should be Qiu Mingxue."
"The maid's immortal bone aptitude is half a point better than that of the princess. In the process of refining medicine, she is obviously more talented." Shen Rongyu had already seen the superiority of the two.
"Yingxiu lets Qiu Mingxue everywhere, she doesn't dare..." Ji Qingzhuo remembered the conversation between the two of them she heard outside the classroom.
"So..." Shen Rongyu's lips raised a faint smile, and his eyes fell on the medicine box in front of Qiu Mingxue.
The spiritual materials given to them by the elders of the alchemy class were used for making medicines, and the spiritual materials that the students who participated in the assessment carried by themselves were the key to the sublimation of the elixir.
Yingxiu took out the medicinal herbs she brought from her space kit, but they were just ordinary spirit herbs, which could be bought at the market on the opening day.
The medicinal herbs that Qiu Mingxue took out were obviously much better. As soon as the medicine box was opened, the fragrant medicinal fragrance floated out.
The corner of her lips raised a confident smile, and she carefully picked out a white grass in the medicine box.
When this herb was displayed in front of everyone, even Xu Qi, the elder of the medicine refining class, couldn't help but boast: "This spiritual material is hard to find. Finding it is not easy.β
However, Ji Qingzhuo knew that this scroll of stone grass was collected by the Zeguo that Qiu Mingxue entrusted her to collect for her. She was already a lot ahead of her peers in terms of resources, and this was the benefit of her birth.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and glanced at Shen Rongyu secretly. The people of Xuanyun Sect are all descendants of the Dongshan royal family. If this is the case, will his life be as peaceful and smooth as Qiu Mingxue, until such a wasteland to destroy his family...
Suddenly, her brows were slightly wrinkled, and she thought of the injury on Shen Rongyu's back. What was the reason for this?
She peeked at Shen Rongyu's eyes, until a scream came from the refining field. This scream was familiar and it was exactly what Qiu Mingxue made.
Ji Qingzhuo turned his gaze immediately, and saw the raging fire in the medicine cauldron in front of Qiu Mingxue. They were no longer the bright red at the beginning, but an evil purple-black glowing with resentment.
The fire turned into countless phantoms and rushed towards Qiu Mingxue, all of which only happened in an instant.
When Qiu Mingxue threw the stone grass into the medicine cauldron, the fire of the refining medicine changed. They changed slowly. Chao Qiu Mingxue quietly leaned over, knowing that she was not paying attention and rushed towards her directly. .
At the same time, in the phantom of the purple-black flame, there are still pictures flashing one after another. It is a hand trying to reach the curly stone grass. The hands are wrapped with red ropes and fastened with safety buckles.
However, just as his hands were about to touch the rolling stone grass, he suddenly lost his strength and fell down.
With the sound of "Bang", blood splattered everywhere, Ji Qingzhuo closed his eyes abruptly, and the person who collected the medicine fell.
Then came the cry of the baby, which was extremely harsh in the empty medicine hall. The hands tied with the red rope and the safety buckle took the child from his mother's arms and kept coaxing in a low voice.
Then there were several sounds of "Bangββ" and "Bangββ", and many pairs of different hands kept trying to reach the stone grass, but they all fell to the bottom of the cliff, and the mourning continued to pierce the eardrums of all the monks present. .
Ji Qingzhuo closed her eyes and didn't look any further. Her hands fell beside her body at a loss. Shen Rongyu watched all this calmly, then leaned over and covered Ji Qingzhuo's ears with both hands.
The moment he covered Ji Qingzhuo's ears, a screeching sound came. The sticky and resentful flames wrapped around Qiu Mingxue's body, and the elder Xu Qi of the Alchemy class who was standing beside him shot and summoned the cold The spring flow, but still can't put out the flame.
The other cultivators around Qiu Mingxue were so frightened that they couldn't even take the exam. The flames caused by the rolling stone grass were so evil that no one dared to approach them, but Yingxiu only looked up at the flames. With a glance, he continued to refine the medicine calmly.
Shen Rongyu watched the strange phenomenon in the medicine hall, but he didn't take action, because Ye Duanhong, who was beside them, was already flying up, and he was also helping to stop the sudden demon.
Ji Qingzhuo's hearing and vision were sealed, but she didn't dare to open her eyes. Even though Shen Rongyu covered her ears, she could still hear the thumping sound of the muddy and broken body falling, as if it were the earth and the cliffs. Beating their bodies heavily, this scene must be bloody, she didn't want to see it.
Shen Rongyu looked at Yingxiu, her hand cutting the spirit grass seemed to be very stable from a distance, but if you look closely, you will find that her whole body is shaking slightly, which is a reaction caused by excessive pain.
But there was no danger around Yingxiu. It was Qiu Mingxue who was surrounded by the evil flames. At the moment when the purple-black flames climbed up to Qiu Mingxue's face, Yingxiu's brows furrowed. She gritted her teeth, trying to let herself Don't act weird.
Everyone should be paying attention to Qiu Mingxue now, and no one should notice her, right? Yingxiu thought so, she raised her eyes, but noticed Shen Rongyu's gaze.
Under the panic, the plate of medicinal herbs in his hand was overturned, Yingxiu lowered his head and picked it up, the silver bracelet on his wrist rattled in a panic.
At this time, Ye Duanhong had come to the hall. He shot, and a long knife was thrown out of nowhere from his waist. It was as deep as the night. Cut off alive.
The purple-black evil flames entangled him, but could not touch his body at all, Ye Duanhong swung a knife again, and the flames were nailed to the ground, and Qiu Mingxue was unconscious on the ground, covered in Burns, not knowing whether to live or die.
It was not until the flames were subdued and Ji Qingzhuo could no longer hear the terrifying sound of falling off the cliff, she opened her eyes and looked at the situation in the medicine hall.
She saw that Yingxiu was calmly pouring the last medicinal material into the medicine tripod, as if nothing had happened.
Yingxiu... wrote her a letter just to ask her to see this?
Ji Qingzhuo was breathing heavily, like a drowning fish. She was so afraid of the current scene that her body trembled slightly.
Shen Rongyu held her shoulders, and his warm palm stabilized her figure.
"Don't be afraid, Zhuo Zhuo," he said to her, "Elder Ye has already subdued that flame."
