Volume 1 A Thousand Stars Chapter 16 Contemplation Flowers
After saying it clearly, several people don't have any doubts in their hearts.
Xie Fan asked out in his heart, "Uncle Xie, today the second lady of the Lan family said that she would pick condensing flowers in a few days. I don't know what the rules are for this picking?"
Xie Jue pondered for a while, and then said, "You must know the effect of this condensing flower, which is to enhance the strength of people's souls. Most of the contemplation flowers in our Huoyun City are concentrated in a volcanic crater in the Huoyun Mountain Range. Usually guarded by Huoyun City, it is only open when it is harvested. The big families and the alchemy office in the city sent people into it respectively, and each had a different quota. Alchemy has three places. ”
After a pause, Xie Jue continued, "There are no specific rules on the picking method, but those below three leaves are not allowed to be picked, and those with three, four, or five leaves belong to the pickers." However, the six-leaf and above quality concentrating flowers must be handed over for unified distribution. Pickers will be ranked according to the high-quality contemplation flowers they turn in, and there will also be corresponding rewards. This year's rewards have not yet been fully decided. ”
Xie Fan suddenly realized after hearing this, the meaning of Miss Lan Er's words was nothing more than to see who picked more contemplation flowers above six leaves at that time.
"Uncle, how many leaves are the highest concentration flowers on our side?" Xie Fan asked.
"Occasionally, seven-leaf flowers can appear, and in the past hundreds of years, there has only been one eight-leaf contemplation flower. Xie Jue thought for a while and said.
Xie Fan asked again, "Uncle, are all the contemplation flowers below five leaves picked to be handed over to their respective families?"
"Yes, except for our alchemy institute, the alchemy level of other families is not very high. Moreover, this concentrating flower has to be added with other medicinal materials, and after practicing the condensing pill, the effect will be better. Therefore, many families get the Divine Concentration Flowers, and they all ask our alchemy office to help them refine the elixir. Xie Jue smiled and said, "Oh, by the way, you will go to our alchemy center on behalf of us when we pick in a few days." ”
Xie Fan said shyly, "Uncle, there was an accident in the fire today, and I didn't refine the small condensation blood scattered, so I have to be selected tomorrow." ”
Xie Jue laughed, "You won't participate tomorrow." You don't need to occupy the three places this year, you just need to be Uncle Xie's closed disciple. After a while, he stopped laughing, and couldn't help but ask, "You must have caused the earth fire today, right? ”
Xie Fan didn't dare to say anything about the gourd, but he couldn't help but explain, and said with a twist: "I just want to test how much strength my soul has, and I desperately tried my best to absorb the earth fire here, but I couldn't control it." ”
"I'm also afraid that there will always be accidents and others will be too careful, so it's better for you not to participate in the assessment. Xie Jue said solemnly, "Pay more attention outside in the future, and don't show your alchemy ability too well." ”
After they finished speaking, Mrs. Xie couldn't help but ask, "Fan'er, how did you spend the past few days? What did you eat, where did you live? ”
Hearing Mrs. Xie ask about this, Xie Fan hurriedly replied, "Auntie, when I came, I met a beggar in our city, called Wang Sanmad. I ate and stayed with him for the first two days. ”
"Wang Sanmad is the beggar leader of our Huoyun City, and he is very righteous. After dinner, you go and talk to someone, and then come back to live. Auntie has already cleaned up the room for you. "Mrs. Xie heard Xie Fan say that she was taken care of by the beggar Wang Sanmad, and she didn't suffer too many grievances, and she felt a lot better.
Xie Jue looked at Xie Fan, "Fan'er, you don't have a space ring, do you?"
"No, uncle. Xie Fan replied.
Xie Jue turned his head and said to the housekeeper Xie Dongping, "Dongping, go get a space ring for Fan'er, and put some silver tickets in it in case you need it." ”
Xie Dongping answered, turned around and went out.
Several people talked again, and after Xie Dongping brought the ring, they had dinner together.
Xie Dongping said to Xie Fan: "Young Master, I put some wine and food in the ring, and when I go to you to find that Wang Sanmad, I can take it out and eat and drink with you, and also express our gratitude." ”
Xie Fan heard Xie Dongping call him young master, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Xie, you can call me Fan'er in the future, you don't need to call me young master." ”
Xie Dongping waved his hand, "This is a rule, and it can't be abolished." The young master will remember to come back early in a while. ”
Bidding farewell to a few old people, Xie Fan walked out of the gate of Xie Mansion in a hurry to find Wang Sanmad, first, to tell them about his joining the alchemy, and second, to express his gratitude to them for their care. The most important thing is that there are only two of them who have friends in Huoyun City, and now the king is also one.
Xie Fan found Wang Sanmad and Li Lao Wu, because it was too late, and a few people didn't leave the city, so they just found a leeward for them, Xie Fan took out the wine and food in the space ring, and the three of them ate and drank.
Wang Sanmad patted Xie Fan on the shoulder while drinking, "Brother Xie, I didn't expect your alchemy skills to be so high, and I started to worry about you in vain." ”
"I was lucky, but I didn't expect to really make it to the second game. Xie Fan replied while drinking.
"By the way, Wang Dashao made a bet that he would give you a hundred chickens and a hundred pots of wine, did you bring them?" Xie Bufan suddenly thought of Wang Dashao's matter.
Wang San barred his tongue wildly, "Wang Dashao is still very righteous, and he never cheats on bets." Everything was given to the brothers. Everybody, let me thank you, brother. ”
Li Lao Wu picked up the wine jug and said to Xie Fan: "Brother Xie, I heard that there was a problem in the second selection today?"
"Yes," Xie Fan touched the flask with Li Lao Wu, "Continue the test tomorrow." ”
"Then we can't drink too late, don't delay Brother Xie's business. Li Lao Wu turned his head and said to Wang Sanmad.
Xie Fan laughed, "It's okay, it's okay, I won't be participating in the test tomorrow." ”
When Wang Sanmad and Li Lao Wu heard this, they were taken aback, and they both woke up a little, "My brother has been eliminated?"
Smiling awkwardly, Xie Fan said: "It's not elimination, it's that Master Xie Dan accepted me as a disciple, so I don't need to occupy the three enrollment places this year." ”
When the two heard this, they looked at each other, what kind of level does this Xie brother have to be so important to the chief Dan master of the Alchemy Institute?
Seeing that the two of them were speechless, Xie Fan knew that it was a misunderstanding, and explained: "Didn't you already know that I and Xie Danshi were both surnamed Xie? That is the distant relative I was looking for. "Anyway, there is a misunderstanding, so continue the misunderstanding and change the way.
"Oh", Wang Sanmad and Li Lao Wu laughed, just now I heard that I didn't participate and thought that Xie Fan was eliminated. It's good to enter the alchemy, and the future is great.
Drinking and hot ears are the easiest to bring people closer to each other, and the relationship between the three is becoming more and more intimate.
Without Xie Fan's second and third selections, it also ended smoothly. Miss Lan Er, Wang Dashao and a young man from a big family in the city became the top three apprentices this time, and they worshiped Xie Jue, Wang Danshi and another Danshi respectively.
This Miss Lan Er has become Xie Fan's senior sister, who has made the family slightly older than Xie Fan for a few months.
