Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 183 Do You Eat Grilled Fish?

The fine rain wets everything it passes through.Rainy days are always so refreshing.

But it is a good weather to sleep in.

After returning to the room, Qi Lan chatted with Ye Shuo for a few words, then fell asleep and didn't wake up until evening.

In fact, Qi Lan was awakened by a burst of fragrance.Ye Shuo actually bought dinner and ate it in the room. The first thing Qi Lan did after waking up was to eat extravagantly, which made him very touched that Ye Shuo even brought his portion.

After eating, Qi Lan expressed that he didn't want to go out, and Ye Shuo asked him what to do with his Qingfeng Yunyun Pill.

Qi Lan hesitated for a moment, "Anyway, I can't catch up with the time of the Alchemist Competition, so let's not care about it!" He felt at ease and lay down again, "It's useless to hold Buddha's feet temporarily now." He seemed to make himself lie down more sympathetically But it was more original, so I added another sentence.

"I'm not a temporary hug, I'm a temporary pharmacist..." Ye Shuo looked at Qi Lan, "Qi Lan, what will happen to Master if you win the last place?"

"..." Qi Lan sat up, "Brother! You won't be the last one! Feel free to ask me if you don't understand anything! Answer all questions!"

After that, Qi Lan felt that he was talking big. First of all, he had to answer Ye Shuo's strange questions, and he had to keep up with the strange rhythm of Ye Shuo's thinking from time to time. He finally expressed that he couldn't take it anymore, "Brother, I am willing to bow down." !"

He suddenly began to look forward to the pharmacist contest that Ye Shuo would participate in. The elixir that Ye Shuo concocted would definitely impress people, and even leave a strong mark in the entire history of the pharmacist contest, because Ye Shuo Mrs. Shuo... her thoughts are clear.

The days that followed passed by in a flash as Ye Shuo, a temporary pharmacist, studied.

After seven days, it finally came to the day of the alchemist competition.

Ye Shuo didn't seem to be so passive about the challenge anymore, on the contrary he still had confidence in himself.

However, Qi Lan was very worried about this, because Ye Shuo had broken at least five or six medicine cauldrons, and the only result was a small Sky Thunder Pill.

But the Sky Thunder Pill was finally smashed by a sky thunder summoned by Ye Shuo.Ye Shuo said innocently: "I just said that there is no need to summon a thunder."

The corner of Qi Lan's mouth twitched.

In fact, the so-called Sky Thunder Pill can allow anyone who takes it, regardless of their foundation, to cast thunder skills, so most alchemists will add a bolt of thunder to it after the Sky Thunder Pill is completed. The only thing is that the effect looks a little better, but it doesn't really help.

But Ye Shuo's lightning struck down fiercely, as if he had a grudge against Lei Dan that day.Qi Lan still remembered how excited he was when he saw Ye Shuo finally concocted a small pill, but before he could be happy for a long time, he heard Ye Shuo say, "Should I still attract a lightning strike? "

Just when Qi Lan wanted to stop him from saying no, he only heard a loud bang. It was like a thunderbolt on the ground. He was so frightened that he bounced off the ground, even the people in the Alchemist Guild who didn't know the truth When I jumped, I thought that some house had been bombed.

A purple thunderbolt as thick as a bowl whizzed across the sky, and it hit the Sky Thunder Pill with a "pop!", even cracking the nearby bluestone bricks, not to mention the poor Sky Thunder Pill. It had been wiped out long ago, leaving only a small puddle of debris on the ground, proving that Ye Shuo had indeed refined a Sky Thunder Pill.

"It's really worrying..." Qi Lan looked at the joyful Ye Shuo.

The Alchemist Contest was held in a suburb outside Dingtian City, Ye Shuo and Qi Lan hurriedly set off.

"It's really strange, why did you go to such a place to compete?" Ye Shuo didn't understand, so Qi Lan frowned, "Don't think about it, Chi Yunshi must have thought of it, and he likes to engage in these crooked ways."

It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the competition site. Only then did they realize that the field used for the competition had been wrapped in an enchantment. From the outside, they could only see a shining film, and they couldn't get it. Know what's going on inside.

The entrance is in the southwest, and when Ye Shuo and Qi Lan arrived at the entrance, there was already a crowd of people, at least no less than a hundred people.

"This time it's the audition first, and at least 1 people will come to participate." Qi Lan said on tiptoe.

"More than 1 people!?" This was beyond Ye Shuo's expectations. He thought a hundred people was the most, but he didn't expect... But if this is the case, there will always be someone who is weaker than me, right?Ye Shuo has already started to comfort himself.

Due to the need to register and check with the information at the time of registration, the entrance was very slow, and because of the large number of people, Ye Shuo and Qi Lan were almost dozing off in line.

So Ye Shuo asked Qi Lan: "As the champion of the last competition, don't you have any preferential treatment?"

At this time, Qi Lan suddenly realized: "Hey!? I seem to be able to go through the VIP channel!"

The breeze was blowing, Ye Shuo and Qi Lan were sitting on spacious chairs in the stands, and the coffee table beside them was freshly brewed Four Seasons Spring Tea, exuding a light tea fragrance, they were looking at the doorway like ants People lined up densely.

"How long will we have to wait until all the people come in? If I had known this, I might as well have come later." Qi Lan leaned lazily on the back of the chair, narrowed her eyes, and wanted to take a break.

"So it's Qi Lan, long time no see." A delicate voice sounded, hearing this voice, Ye Shuo and Qi Lan got goose bumps at the same time.

The one who spoke was a very young woman in an eye-catching red dress. She was painted with extremely gorgeous makeup, her head was tied up in a romantic and unique upturned bun, and a red gold filigree tin flower was inserted obliquely. She was alluring, but not tacky.

Qi Lan suddenly went dark, "I really hope I never see you in my life." His answer was very cold.

But the woman in red didn't take it seriously, she turned around and saw Ye Shuo, and said, "Qi Lan, is this your friend? Oh, I heard that Master Yunxing has taken in a new apprentice, isn't it you?" She Smiling and looking at Ye Shuo, his eyes were crooked, like a narrowed kitten.

"You will be poisoned if you talk to her." Qi Lan pulled Ye Shuo, then shook her head.

"How can I be so scary?" The woman in red wanted to say something, but was called away. Before she left, she did not forget to wink, "See you on the field when we compete~"

It wasn't until the woman in red went away that Qi Lan pulled Ye Shuo and said, "That man's name is Chong Shuyao, and he is Chi Yunshi's first apprentice. He is powerful in refining medicine, but he is even better at making poison. Just stay away from her."

"It's related to that Chiyunshi?" Ye Shuo curled his lips.

"Ah, I also heard..." A gossip expression suddenly appeared on Qi Lan's face. He looked back and forth, and after confirming that there was no one else around him, he said to Ye Shuo: "Chong Shuyao and Chi Yunshi In addition to the master-student relationship, they are lovers."

"Pfft..." Ye Shuo almost sprayed Qi Lan's face with the Four Seasons Spring Tea in his mouth, what a complicated relationship... Ye Shuo couldn't imagine it.

Qi Lan wanted to continue talking, when suddenly the host's voice came from the judges' seat, it seemed that the competition was about to start.

So, Ye Shuo and Qi Lan sat on the chairs and listened to the host start to talk a lot of nonsense. The opening remarks were nothing more than a few sentences, and they might have copied the ones from last year and the year before last.

Qi Lan chattered in every possible way and said, "He said the same thing last year..."

It wasn't until the host started to introduce the judges that Ye Shuo and Qi Lan raised their spirits a little.

There are 20 judges, all of whom are pharmacists above the fifth rank, and Chi Yunshi is also in it, but there is no Master Yunxing.

Qi Lan told Ye Shuo that it was because Master Yun Xing went to help him refine Jiuxiao Pill, and Ye Shuo was suddenly moved.

"Since it is an audition, there are no hard and fast rules for this competition. As long as more than half of the [-] judges on the judging panel approve the elixir that you have refined, it will be considered a pass. This time the competition is for everyone to use their strengths Leaders, everyone, please show yourself!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, there was a burst of noise from below, "What kind of competition is this?" Someone didn't understand.

"This method is also very good, let's use our strengths and avoid weaknesses~ Just refine the elixir that you are good at!" Some people especially like it.

"Quiet, everyone." The host continued: "The location of this competition is this suburb. You can choose all the materials in this area. After you get the materials, go to the pharmacy in the east to refine the medicine. , but there are only [-] medicine cauldrons in the pharmacy, everyone, first come, first served. The competition time starts from now until dark. Come on everyone!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, the crowd immediately rushed towards the competition area, fearing that they would fall behind.

Qi Lan also wanted to leave quickly, but Ye Shuo was in a daze.

"Senior brother, let's go too." Qi Lan didn't care if Ye Shuo had recovered, and immediately grabbed him away.

"You can do whatever you want?" Ye Shuo muttered to himself, as if he had thought of something.

The wild forests in the outskirts are full of wild flowers and weeds.

There are also many common dandelions and hawthorns, as well as nepeta, weeping grass, etc. These can be used for refining medicine, and the method is simple and the success rate is very high, but these medicines are too common These, the judges will definitely not agree to pass.

The rare ones are black berry, vitex, and longum, which are not special raw materials, but many people have already started to pick them for emergencies.If you can find higher-grade raw materials, use higher-grade materials. If you can't find them, you can make do with them.

Qi Lan also gave Ye Shuo some black berries, but he didn't prepare any for himself.Ye Shuo suddenly felt like an idiot...

Not far away, someone found a Xuanguang dogwood, a small dogwood growing alone on the edge of a small valley, it has not yet fully matured.

Xuanguang Cornus officinalis can be regarded as a relatively high-grade second-grade medicinal material. Many people have fallen in love with it, and no one wants to give it to anyone. The result is naturally a group of people fight.

First, two people started to fight, but the third person took the opportunity to pick it up, and was beaten by the previous two together.After that, the fourth person took the opportunity to pick it up, and was beaten by the previous three together. It snowballed like this, and more and more people participated in the fight. Who has the highest force value.

A group of pharmacists felt that fighting was not enough, some people started to cast spiritual skills, crackling for a while, all kinds of spiritual skills flashed beside the little Xuanguang dogwood.

I don't know who, accidentally, a light blade of spiritual power slashed towards it, and actually split the Xuanguang dogwood into pieces.

Suddenly, the alchemists who were still fighting each other fell silent...

"Isn't this kind of competition very lively?" Chi Yunshi smiled and said to the president of the alchemist guild, "My proposal is not bad."

The president sat on the judges' seat, looking at the pharmacists who were fighting for a relatively high-grade medicinal plant, he didn't know what expression to make on his face. "It's so indecent! How can this be a competition!" He said to himself.

On the playing field, Qi Lan and Ye Shuo separated.They still felt that it would be faster to split up. The two went to look for raw materials separately, and agreed on a time. After an hour, regardless of whether they found high-grade medicinal materials, they all gathered in the pharmacy.

Ye Shuo walked towards the plain in the south, and Qi Lan walked towards the highland in the west.

Qi Lan is particularly depressed, he can now be sure that behind him, there are a lot of people following him intentionally or unintentionally.As the champion of the last alchemist competition, Qi Lan was recognized early in the morning.The idea of ​​the stalker is that following the previous champion, the vegetation that Qi Lan has noticed along the way must be unusual. Even if he can't get the most valuable raw materials, he can still get a few higher-grade raw materials.

Qi Lan naturally knew what they were thinking, so she picked up a bunch of dandelions and hawthorns along the way, and even stopped for a long time in front of a few foxtails, as if observing them carefully.

Sure enough, after Qi Lan left the dogtail grass, some of those followers really went to pick those dogtail grasses, and said while picking them: "It seems that these few dogtail grasses must have something special!"

Qi Lan couldn't laugh or cry.

But at this moment, he is also a little worried about his situation. After all, being stared at by such a group of people, if he really finds some high-level raw materials and medicinal materials, he must not escape their eyes. If it is just these ordinary alchemists, it will be fine. If you are being watched by some difficult guys, even if you find high-grade raw materials, you are just helping others find them.

After much deliberation, Qi Lan decided to go to Ye Shuo. Although he didn't know how high Ye Shuo's strength was, no matter what, it was much higher than himself.

Qi Lan walked all the way to the south, but she never saw Ye Shuo. Further south, there was a small stream, and there seemed to be no one going there. Qi Lan was about to change direction, when suddenly she smelled a particularly fragrant scent. ...grilled fish?

Like a ghost, Qi Lan followed the smell of grilled fish and walked along the stream, only to see a familiar figure appearing in front of him.

Ye Shuo turned around and saw Qi Lan, so he asked, "Do you want to eat grilled fish?"
