Chapter 1700: No Distraction
Bai Zimei was startled.
Such a sound was obviously made by the fully armed heavy cavalry.
In the Da Rui Empire, the heavy cavalry has always been in the hands of the Ning family, and there is a heavy cavalry unit called "Snow Dragon", which is not only the absolute trump card of the Da Rui Empire, but also well-known in the surrounding empires.
This unit is the core strength of the Ning family, and it is also their secret.
Even Yunyan Pavilion has always been envious of this "Snow Dragon" cavalry, and has always wanted to replicate a similar unit, but unfortunately it has never succeeded.
Hearing this movement at this time, Bai Zimei suddenly remembered the name of this unit for no reason.
She was about to find her informant to inquire about the specific situation, but before she found the person, the heavy cavalry outside had arrived in front of the White Horse Temple. They were all snow-white horses, and the words "Snow Dragon" were clearly displayed on the flag.
Her guess was right. It was indeed the Ning family's trump card force - the Snow Dragon Cavalry.
"Could it be that the uncle of the emperor, Ning Shiyi, came here personally?"
Bai Zimei was guessing secretly, but found that the commander of the Snow Dragon Cavalry had already dismounted in front of the White Horse Temple and walked in with big strides.
This person was a woman. Her shining silver armor did not make her look slow and clumsy, but instead highlighted her graceful figure and heroic spirit. Her thin waist and narrow shoulders seemed to contain explosive power.
For a moment, Bai Zimei was a little distracted.
Even though she was also a woman, she couldn't help but be impressed by the other party's style and felt a thrilling throbbing.
"Are you Bai Zimei?"
The woman walked over and asked Bai Zimei, who was the first to bear the brunt.
Bai Zimei came back to her senses, nodded and replied, "I am."
At the same time, she also remembered who this woman was... If she was not mistaken, this person should be Ning Wanqing, one of the three heroes of the Ning family.
The three heroes of the Ning family are the three most outstanding figures in the Ning family. The first is the current queen Ning Wanxuan, the second is the uncle of the emperor Ning Shiyi, and the third is the Ning Wanqing in front of him...
These three people are brothers and sisters from the same mother. All three of them have extremely outstanding talents. It was predicted a long time ago that the final cultivation achievements of these three people will reach the level of Grand Duke or above.
And these three people did not disappoint people. It is said that Queen Ning Wanxuan has been promoted to Grand Duke, but she lives in seclusion and is not known to outsiders; as for Ning Shiyi and Ning Wanqing, they also showed extremely high cultivation talents very early, and they are very close to the realm of Grand Duke.
Among the three siblings, Ning Wanxuan entered the harem, Ning Shiyi entered the government as the uncle and regent, and Ning Wanqing has been commanding troops outside. Although they have their own division of labor, they all hold great power.
Unexpectedly, Ning Wanqing suddenly appeared here now...
"I am Ning Wanqing."
Sure enough, the woman said with a smile, further verifying Bai Zimei's guess.
She looked up and down at Bai Zimei and continued, "I didn't expect that the dignified elder of the Green Lion Temple would be willing to follow the special envoy of Xihai City. It seems that this special envoy Lu is indeed extraordinary... What is in your hand? Can you show it to me?"
As she said, she stretched out her hand and handed over the "memorial" that Bai Zimei had just completed.
"This... No!"
Bai Zimei was shocked and hurriedly tried to stop it.
However, a strange force came, and the "memorial" in her hand was not under her control at all, and flew to the other party's hand involuntarily.
Bai Zimei was stunned. After the incident in the underground palace of Yunyan Mansion, Cui Zhenzhen had already lifted the golden elixir blockade for her. Her strength had been fully restored at this time, but even in this situation, she was still unable to compete with the other party. From this, it can be seen how powerful Ning Wanqing's strength is.
At this moment, Bai Zimei knew that the rumors were true.
Even if Ning Wanqing was not at the level of a Grand Duke, she was probably not far away.
This time, she suddenly came here, I'm afraid she didn't have good intentions...
Bai Zimei's heart was pounding, but Ning Wanqing had already opened the memorial and read it by herself.
"Did you write this?"
After a moment, Ning Wanqing suddenly showed a hint of an ambiguous smile: "You are indeed wasting your talent staying in the Green Lion Altar. I really don't know what my second brother has been doing for the past few years. Such an outstanding talent like you was actually let go, and Xihai City got a bargain for nothing..."
At this time, Bai Zimei finally seized the opportunity and snatched the memorial back from Ning Wanqing's hand, and asked: "General Ning suddenly visited, what exactly do you want?"
Ning Wanqing smiled slightly: "What else can it be? Of course, I came to find the surname Lu... He is here, right?"
After saying that, without waiting for Bai Zimei's response, he walked forward directly.
In fact, it stands to reason that the White Horse Temple has been requisitioned by the delegation. This should belong to the exclusive territory of Xihai City, and outsiders cannot trespass without permission, but this reason is obviously impossible to explain to the other party now...
Originally, the temple was jointly guarded by the Ministry of Rites and the Feishi Camp. After a battle last night, the Feishi Camp had been withdrawn by Lu Yu to rest, so at this time, only the guards sent by the Ministry of Rites were left in the White Horse Temple.
Naturally, these guards did not dare to stop Ning Wanqing, so she walked in as if she were alone and soon arrived at Lu Yu and Cui Zhenzhen's "small classroom".
At this time, Lu Yu and Cui Zhenzhen's class had changed from theoretical explanation to practical operation. The two set up the small alchemy furnace in the yard and were refining the elixir.
Seeing this scene, Ning Wanqing couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Bai Zimei had been following her closely, and it was not until this moment that he finally had the opportunity to stop her.
"General Ning, please stop!" Bai Zimei said with open arms.
She deliberately raised her voice to remind Lu Yu and Cui Zhenzhen that there were outsiders at this time.
But unexpectedly, Lu Yu completely ignored her painstaking efforts, and even didn't even glance over here, and reminded Cui Zhenzhen: "Don't be distracted, no matter what happens, even if the sky falls, we have to finish this furnace of elixir first!"
Cui Zhenzhen nodded.
Originally, she was a little impatient, but after hearing Lu Yu's reminder, she immediately became focused again, and her beautiful eyes watched the changes in the flame and airflow of the alchemy furnace without blinking.
Lu Yu gave some advice from time to time, and Cui Zhenzhen followed his instructions meticulously.
Soon, the furnace, which was on the verge of collapse, gradually stabilized again.
The teaching between the two did not seem to be affected at all.
Although Ning Wanqing came with great momentum, she suddenly became a different person at this time. Surprisingly, she did not continue to force her way in. She just stood outside and watched from a distance through Bai Zimei who opened his arms.
After a while, the whole refining process was finally completed. Cui Zhenzhen returned to her energy and closed the furnace.
Ning Wanqing could not help but applaud at this time and said with a smile: "It's really wonderful! I have heard that Envoy Lu is a god of alchemy. It was with Envoy Lu's magic pill that Xihai City defeated the three grand dukes in one fell swoop... Are those magic pills all refined in this way?"
