Chapter 1276 Personal Visit
Bai Feng decided to go to Changbai Mountain to invite Wei Boyang in person, and then asked the guard captain Liu Yong and the servants to have a good rest first.
When Cao Jie returned to his house from the soap workshop, he happened to see Liu Yong, the leader of the bodyguards who had been worn by the world, and others preparing to go back to rest.
"Husband, have Liu Yong and the others invited Wei Boyang back?"
Cao Jie then asked Bai Feng.
"No."
"Wei Boyang is currently refining elixirs in the Changbai Mountains and has no interest in coming out to help me make nitrate/glycerin dynamite."
Bai Feng replied to Cao Jie.
"It's really a pity, but Wei Boyang didn't really refine the elixir and become an immortal. Legends are just legends after all."
Cao Jie remembered the story Bai Feng told him about Wei Boyang and his great disciple, and the story about the little native dog who came back to life after taking the elixir and ascended to immortality.
"Hahaha, of course there are no immortals, but Wei Boyang's alchemy skills must far exceed those of Zhang Daoyi and Fang Yuan."
After hearing this, Bai Feng smiled at Cao Jie.
Wei Boyang's value to Bai Feng lies precisely in his excellent alchemy skills.
The elixir cannot be refined, but nitrified/glycerin explosives can always be made.
After all, there is no formula for refining the elixir. Nitro/glycerin dynamite can be mass-produced sooner or later by following the formula experiment.
At this time, Bai Feng couldn't help but think of a sentence, that is, destruction is always easier than creation.
The production of nitrate/glycerin is also much easier than refining the elixir. Perhaps to describe it as easy is to underestimate the effect of the elixir.
"Does the husband plan to recruit alchemists from other states and counties to help you make nitrate/glycerin explosives?"
Cao Jie knew that there were only five alchemists including Zhang Daoyi and Fang Yuan in the entire nitrification/glycerin dynamite manufacturing workshop.
She felt that there were still a few people. If one or two people were injured due to operational errors, the progress of making nitrate/glycerin explosives would be even slower.
"Of course, but before that, I want to go to Changbai Mountain to see if I can invite Wei Boyang out of the mountain to help me make nitrate/glycerin dynamite."
Bai Feng then said to Cao Jie.
It would be a pity to give up an experienced alchemy master like Wei Boyang.
If an alchemist can still be energetic and rosy in his seventies, it means that the elixir he refines is definitely not harmful to people.
Judging from the results, most of the elixirs refined by Wei Boyang should be beneficial to people.
Even if Wei Boyang's identity as an alchemy master is excluded, Wei Boyang can be regarded as a miracle doctor in medical terms.
"My husband actually wants to go to Changbai Mountain in person to ask Wei Boyang to come out?"
Cao Jie couldn't help but say after hearing this.
She didn't expect that Bai Feng had such a high opinion of Wei Boyang and was very optimistic about Wei Boyang's abilities.
"Yes, I will leave for Changbai Mountain tomorrow. I will leave early and come back early."
Bai Feng finally said to Cao Jie.
Early the next morning, Bai Feng embarked on the journey to Changbai Mountain alone.
Before that, Bai Feng learned the detailed location of Wei Boyang Cave from the guard captain Liu Yong.
Liuli, Zhang Qiying, and Zhang Ning all learned that Bai Feng was about to go to Changbai Mountain and personally went to invite Wei Boyang to come out.
The three of them all wanted to go to Changbai Mountain with Bai Feng to meet the legendary alchemy master who had "ascended".
However, because Bai Feng did not intend to use the conventional method to travel, he did not take Liuli, Zhang Qiying and Zhang Ning with him.
After leaving the city, Bai Feng used his spiritual power directly beside an official road where no pedestrians passed, and transformed into an eagle.
Then Bai Feng, who transformed into an eagle, spread his wings and soared into the sky, fluttering towards Changbai Mountain.
In just two days, Bai Feng had arrived at the foot of Changbai Mountain.
Except for stopping to rest and eat, Bai Feng was flying in the sky.
"It's really fast to fly in the sky, and it's really tiring to be tired. It should be easier next time I become a wild goose."
Bai Feng, who was eating at a villager's home at the foot of Changbai Mountain, thought to himself while chewing pickles.
After the meal, Bai Feng gave the villagers one tael of silver and set off towards Changbai Mountain amid the villagers' welcome.
Bai Feng, who came to a deserted place again and transformed into an eagle, quickly found Wei Boyang's current cave according to the description of the guard captain Liu Yong.
Outside the cave, Bai Feng released the illusion and then came to the entrance of the cave.
Wei Boyang's disciple Zhen Cheng, who was still lighting a fire at the entrance of the cave and preparing lunch, was stunned when he saw Bai Feng.
Who is this person? Why did you suddenly appear here in the cave?
However, this man looked dignified, handsome and tall. Although his clothes were not very flashy, he was very well-fitted and well-dressed. I guess he was not an ordinary person.
In just an instant, Zhen Cheng's wariness towards Bai Feng disappeared.
All I can say is that regardless of whether it is ancient or modern, China or foreign countries, the world is all about face.
Even time travelers cannot escape this law
"Fellow Taoist, may I ask if your respected master, Mr. Wei, is in the cave?"
"I am Bai Feng, the Marquis of Hanzhong, here to visit Mr. Wei."
Bai Feng looked at Wei Boyang's disciple Zhen Cheng and said with a smile.
"Why are you here to find the master again? We just sent away a group of people more than ten days ago!"
"The number of people who have come to see Master during this period is almost more than the number of people who came to see me in the past three years combined!"
When Zhen Cheng heard Bai Feng ask his master Wei Boyang if he was in the cave, he couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Then Zhen Cheng heard Bai Feng's self-introduction.
"You, you are Hanzhong Hou?!"
It has been less than half a month since the last wave of Hanzhong Hou's guards and servants left. Zhen Cheng did not expect that Hanzhong Hou himself would come!
"That's right."
Bai Feng smiled and replied to Zhen Cheng.
"Please wait a moment. I will go and ask the master to meet you!"
Zhen Cheng, who was excited, quickly said to Bai Feng and turned and ran directly to the cave.
"This is Hanzhong Hou Bai Feng who helped His Majesty unify the world and was invincible!"
"I didn't expect that the master could let Hanzhong Hou come to see him in person!"
Zhen Cheng was very excited at this time, and at the same time he was very proud of himself for becoming Wei Boyang's apprentice!
His silly junior brother went down the mountain because he disliked the boring life in the mountains and the boring alchemy all day.
If he could see Hanzhong Hou personally come to ask Master Wei Boyang to come out of the mountain today, I wonder what he would think?
Wei Boyang, who was refining the elixir in the cave, frowned when he heard the footsteps of the land god Zhen Cheng running.
"How can you be so flustered? Have you forgotten the method of cultivating your mind that I taught you before?!"
"How can you seek the elixir of immortality in this state!"
Then Wei Boyang scolded his disciple Zhen Cheng.
"Master, the Marquis of Hanzhong is here and is waiting to see you outside the cave!"
Zhen Cheng ignored the scolding of his master Wei Boyang and spoke directly to him.
