Chapter 3 [003] New Junior (1)
"I am Zhongli Jin."
I thought this name could finally bring some ripples to the girl's eyes, but Shi Qing just said "Oh" and pointed to the female disciple who was refining pills next to him and said, "Ask Cangying."
Then he said nothing more, turned around and continued to look at the scenery.
Zhongli Jin: “…”
At this time, Cangying next to him seemed to have finally finished refining the pill. He pinched his fingertips to end the spell, slowly calmed down the fire in the furnace, and let out a long sigh with sweat all over his forehead.
When alchemy disciples are refining the elixir, they will focus their attention completely on the elixir furnace, creating a barrier between their consciousness and the outside world, and their five senses will not be restored until the refining is finished.
She was about to look at Shi Qing, but suddenly saw the young man. She was immediately surprised and asked, "You... are new here?"
"Yes," Shi Qing no longer had the need to communicate, Zhong Lijin said politely to Cangying: "Hello, Senior Sister, I'm here to see Elder Cangyen."
"Elder Cangyan...Junior brother, Elder Cangyan may not be awake at this time, so you may have made a wasted trip." Cangying said.
"Okay, thank you, Senior Sister Cang." Zhongli Jin's red lips curled slightly, her eyebrows and eyes looked gentle, "Then may I ask when will Elder Cangyan wake up?"
Just as Cangying was about to say something, a lazy woman's voice suddenly came out from the sound transmission stone beside her: "Ying'er, let him come up, I'm awake."
Cangying was stunned, seeming a little surprised.
I didn’t expect that the elder actually knew this young man and deliberately kept him awake at this hour!
"Yes," Cangying was puzzled, but still said to the young man: "Elder Cangyan is on the eighth floor of the attic, you can just take the stone stairs up."
"Thank you, senior sister." Zhongli Jin bowed again and turned to walk out the door.

After the boy left, Cangying stood up and stretched her muscles. She felt her bones were stiff.
"We have finished refining the elixir this morning. Those who are fasting can go back and rest, and those who are not fasting can go to Yujing Peak for lunch." As the eldest sister, Cangying is usually the one who disciplines these younger brothers and sisters. As soon as the elixir refining is over, these guys will run faster than rabbits. However, today is a little different. After she finished speaking, no one left. Instead, they stared in the direction where the young man had just left, each with a subtle expression.
"...Why are you all blushing?" Cangying frowned. "Seeing a beautiful boy is like you've never had anything good in your life. It's okay for the junior sisters, but why are you guys blushing?!"
The disciples finally came back to their senses after being scolded. They coughed a few times in embarrassment and stood up to leave.
The remaining junior sisters came to Cangying with a hard time explaining and whispered, "Sister, do you know who that junior brother was just now?"
Cangying raised an eyebrow: "Who is it?"
The next second, she heard her say: "Zhong-Li-Jin."
Cangying: “…”

After being stunned for a few seconds, she suddenly looked at Shi Qing.
That girl is like an idiot who doesn't care about anything. Her ex-fiancé is already circling around her, but she's still enjoying the scenery!
...Forget it, it’s shocking that Shi Qingzhen cares about these things.
Cangying took the medicine from the furnace and put it in a porcelain bottle. She handed it to Shi Qingshi and snorted coldly, "I worked so hard to make the blood-recovering pill for you, but you are so relaxed. You have seen the scenery of Sanqing Mountain for so many years, haven't you seen enough?"
Hearing her voice, Shi Qing turned around and blinked at her, "It's not easy."
"Oh?" Cangying didn't believe it and raised her eyebrows, "Why are you not relaxed? Is it the scenery that makes you uneasy?"
"I did not see."
"What? Didn't you see the view?"
"Yes." Shi Qing nodded: "Breathing."
From her simple words, Cangying roughly understood what she meant. She didn't forget to regulate her breathing and practice her exercises even when she was resting.
So he couldn't help but frowned, and said helplessly: "I'm telling you, even if the Magic Martial Secret Realm is about to open, you don't have to work so hard. You go to the Wind and Thunder Tower every three days, and stay there for ten days or half a month. Every time you come out, you are covered in injuries. Even an iron body can't stand it! Look--"
She pulled the end of the bandage on Shi Qing's arm, and her tone became heavier: "You're wrapping more and more bandages! Don't ask me to make pills for treatment in the future! You don't even take care of your body, and you still want me to help you do it?!" Shi Qing took the top of the bandage, and the snow-white band suddenly seemed to come to life at her fingertips. It moved gently, and then wrapped around Cangying's wrist affectionately, rubbing against it like a little snake.
Cangying met Shiqing's gaze. Although the girl's expression remained calm, the snow-white bandage reflected her slightly flattering attitude at the moment, as if she wanted to calm her down.
Cangying: “…”
Cangying: "Don't try that on me."
As soon as I gave her a lecture, she started to act like a spoiled brat.
"By the way, when did Zhongli Jin come?" She was so focused on refining the elixir that she had no idea.
"Just now." Shi Qing said.
Cangying: “…”
Three seconds later, Shi Qing sat upright, with a bump on his head, and answered seriously: "One word."
About five minutes ago.
Cangying understood and asked again: "Do you still remember him?"
"Yes." Shi Qing nodded: "Just the name."
I only remember his name. I haven't seen him for a long time. I really can't remember his face.
Cangying murmured, "He must have succeeded in drawing the Qi into his body just now. It's worth it that Sect Master Zhongli has been running around for him for the past two years."
It is not easy to reshape spiritual roots. Sect Leader Zhongli has come to Sanqing Mountain to ask for medicine no less than a hundred times. The pills he has taken and the medicinal baths he has taken over the years have turned Zhongli Jin into a medicine jar. Fortunately, the young man persisted and can finally embark on the path of immortality again without dying of aging and illness. However, the road ahead will probably still be winding and difficult to walk on.
Cangying sighed a little. This was a rare prodigy in the world of cultivation who had already established the seventh level of foundation at the age of fourteen. One should know that Shi Qing, the fastest cultivator in Sanqing Mountain, had only established the seventh level of foundation last year.
Shi Qing held the bottle of pills in his hand and played with it for a while, then suddenly stood up.
"Where are you going?" Cangying asked her.
Shi Qing: "The Demon Locking Tower."
Cangying: “…”
The Fenglei Tower has been used to ward off lightning and suppress evil since ancient times. It is also the place where demons are imprisoned in Sanqing Mountain, so it is also known as the Demon Locking Tower.
Cangying said expressionlessly: "So, you just ignored what I said just now, right?"
"Don't worry." Shi Qing looked at her seriously, and his gaze fell into Cangying's eyes, which actually had a bit more cunning taste. "I will pay attention."
"Who the hell wants you to pay attention?! I want you to rest! Even if it's just for one more day!!"
After she finished shouting this, the sound transmission stone suddenly flickered twice, and Elder Cangyan's sleepy voice sounded again: "Ying'er, come up."
Cangying was startled, and immediately responded: "Yes, Master."
The master suddenly called her, although he didn't say what it was, but she always felt that it had something to do with Zhong Li Jin just now.

The second floor of Baicao Pavilion is smaller than the first floor. It is an octagonal hall with exquisite decoration and lifelike wood carvings. It is filled with smoke but does not block the view.
In the middle of the hall stood a gigantic alchemy furnace, with a blazing fire on top of it, rushing straight to the top. The surroundings were so scorching hot that one's cheeks could not help but blush.
Cangying walked towards the screen behind the alchemy furnace, "Master, what can I do for you?"
"Ying'er." The woman behind the screen leaned lazily on the couch and waved her hand. The unfolded screen folded up, revealing the woman's true face.
Elder Cangyan was wearing a purple dress. She had a beautiful face, almond eyes, red lips, and snow-white skin. Her clothes were a little loose, and she looked very charming at first glance.
Zhongli Jin was standing next to the woman at this moment, with his eyes slightly lowered and his manners polite.
Good morning, my dears! Please give me some votes and comments! !
