696. Chapter 696 Xun'er Is Still in the Family (1/2)
After the attitude of the three Burning Flame Valley elders towards Xiao Yan changed, Xiao Yan also met this patient, Tang Zhen's daughter Tang Huo'er. The first impression that Xiao Yan had on Xiao Yan was that of a fiery and unrestrained personality. She didn't show any signs of depression because she only had half a year left to live. On the contrary, she was full of pride, and her fiery red hair was flying like flames, making Xiao Yan inexplicably see the shadow of Yaotian Fire in her body.
When Yao Tianhuo was as old as Tang Huo'er, he probably had the same personality as hers.
Afterwards, under Tang Zhen's arrangement, Xiao Yan and the others rested for one night in Fenyan Valley. Early the next morning, Xiao Yan got down to business: treating Tang Huo'er.
However, it is to treat diseases, or to be more precise, to help refine medicine. Tang Zhen has already prepared the Fire Buddha Pill prescription and medicinal materials for treating Tang Huoer in advance. Xiao Yan only needs to refine the Fire Buddha Pill according to the prescription.
As for why Xiao Yan was asked to come to Burning Flame Valley in person, to put it bluntly, it was just for insurance. If Tang Huo'er still didn't recover after taking the Fire Buddha Pill, Xiao Yan still had to find a way to help solve the problem.
In the early morning, Tang Zhen led Xiao Yan and others to the square on the back hill of Fenyan Valley. In the middle of the square stood a huge medicine cauldron, which made Xiao Yan and Cao Ying unable to help but marvel.
Such a huge medicine cauldron has never been seen before.
"Xun'er, she is my sister." Xiao Yan answered without hesitation, and then lightly scratched his face, "I say she is a sister, but in fact she is not related by blood. She was fostered in our home since she was a child. I just went back this year.”
"Really not, should I say there is no time or something. So far, in addition to relying on the guidance of Senior Yao at the beginning, I have basically relied on feeling in refining medicine. Apart from the basic knowledge of the theory of medicine refining, I Almost clueless.”
"Don't worry, don't put too much pressure on me." Tang Huo'er patted Xiao Yan's shoulder and said with a bold smile: "If you can't practice, you can't practice. Just think that God wants to take away my life. It's no pity. of."
"really."
"What should I do? I've never done anything to improve the prescription."
Xiao Yan paused and then spoke.
"Look here, because Tang Huo'er's condition is much more serious than imagined, so this medicinal material needs to be replaced with the more powerful red flame grass. However, considering Tang Huo'er's physical condition at this time, another Qingxinye needs to be added. Carry out some neutralization, but not too much, otherwise it will be meaningless to replace the medicinal materials with red flame grass."
As he spoke, Xiao Yan crossed his arms with a somewhat regretful expression.
"Then little brother Xiao Yan, I'll leave it to you to make the alchemy."
After Tang Zhen and the others left, Xiao Yan's smiling expression just now suddenly became heavier and he looked at Cao Ying.
Suddenly Cao Ying remembered Xun'er who came to Xingyun Pavilion last time and asked.
"Isn't this just right? We are even." Cao Ying took a pen and wrote and revised on the prescription, and said softly: "I have handed over my innocence to you, and you are willing to shoulder this responsibility. , I will not regret my choice, and you don’t have to apologize for the past, just live the present with peace of mind.”
Well, she just thought that the little medical fairy was the worst, but she didn't expect that there was another one who was even worse.
Feeling Cao Ying's close contact with her soft and delicate body and the slight fragrance emanating from her body made Xiao Yan's expression slightly stunned, Cao Ying said with a smile.
"Dad! Did you hear what Xiao Yan said? You said before that no woman has my personality, isn't that true?" After speaking, Tang Huoer pressed Xiao Yan's shoulders with both hands, his eyes filled with golden light, "Turn back to me Let me introduce that senior, if she really has the kind of personality you said, we will definitely get along very well!"
"Speaking of which, I didn't have time to talk to Xun'er last time she came to Xingyun Pavilion. I don't know how she has been doing in the past few years."
"Little brother Xiao Yan, three portions of the medicinal materials of the Fire Buddha Pill have been prepared in this Najie. Please use them as you wish. If there are any remaining medicinal materials after the Fire Buddha Pill is successfully refined, you can dispose of the remaining medicinal materials as you wish."
Cao Ying glanced lightly and shrugged helplessly.
"Ah~ you're talking about this. How long has it been since you mentioned it now?" Cao Ying still didn't raise her head, her eyes fixed on Danfang, she bit her pen lightly and said lightly: "I have nothing to regret. , you don’t have to apologize to me. It was my own choice and my own mistake. If it hadn’t been for me at that time, your soul would not have revolted at the most critical moment. If you have to say it, I would have separated you and Feng Qing'er is the one who did the harm."
At this time, Tang Zhen waved his hand to his daughter and said.
Xiao Yan took out the Fire Buddha Pill prescription from Najie with a headache on his face, while Cao Ying looked at him in shock.
Thinking about it, the position of the little medical fairy is not easy.
"Okay~ I'll introduce it to you later." Xiao Yan smiled, and then gently took away Tang Huo'er's hand on his shoulder, "Now I'd better concentrate on refining the medicine, Cao Ying, please help me by watching over it." point."
"Yes." Cao Ying nodded solemnly, "I wasn't sure yet when we first met yesterday, but the feeling has become more obvious to me just now."
In the ancient tribe, in a place of confinement, on a mountain top shrouded in clouds and mist, a woman wearing an elegant dress sat cross-legged with her eyes closed. As the light mist swirled around her, she looked like a fairy in the mist, revealing an ethereal and charming temperament.
"Ah, it's nothing. I just feel that your personality is quite similar to that of a senior I know. I think you two will get along quite well."
Cao Ying glanced at the Najie in Xiao Yan's hand, which contained the Fire Buddha Pill prescription and medicinal materials, and said in a deep voice.
"Please rest assured, Master Tang. Xiao Yan cannot guarantee success, but he will do his best."
"It's a shame that you can win the Alchemy Championship like this. If Song Qing and the others find out about this, I'm afraid they'll be very angry." Cao Ying shrugged helplessly and reached out to take the prescription of Fire Buddha Pill from Xiao Yan's hand. Come over and say, "Give it to me. I will adjust it according to Tang Huo'er's situation. Then you can just follow the steps I wrote to make the medicine."
Xiao Yan said and looked at Cao Ying, who also nodded.
"What's the relationship between Xun'er and you?"
"This Tang Valley Master's experience sounds quite inspiring."
After listening to Xiao Yan's words, combined with the previous interaction between the Little Medical Fairy and Xun'er, Cao Ying immediately understood something. Looking at Xiao Yan's expression full of doting and longing for her sister, Cao Ying couldn't help but smile. Twitched.
".you're right."
Why do you say almost? Because of Zi Yun's incident, Xiao Yan still can't tell whether it is an accident or not.
It is an unwritten rule to ask a pharmacist to make medicine and prepare three copies of medicinal materials in advance, although Xiao Yan has not paid much attention to it until now.
"Just taking this opportunity, let me teach you how to modify the recipe. Maybe it will be useful in the future."
It is said that the fate of the Little Medical Fairy came later than that of a latecomer like herself. It is quite sad to say that. Even if Xiao Yan did not say it clearly, Cao Ying guessed that it was the Little Medical Fairy who asked her and Gu Qinghan to follow Xiao Yan this time. Yes, I was just afraid that something would happen to Xiao Yan and that Tang Huo'er again.
"But it's really touching. In the past, I had been imagining who my future husband would be and how we would be together. I didn't expect it to be because of an accident." Cao Ying said, lightly He curled his lips, "And this accident was caused by myself. I can't complain even if I want to."
(Maybe she is too reserved. I can’t be like her.)
Cao Ying thought like this, stood up under Xiao Yan's doubtful eyes, then turned around and sat in Xiao Yan's arms, just like Zi Yan that day.
"Cao Ying, do you regret it?"
Cao Ying didn't even raise her head, and asked while writing changes on the prescription.
"But if you hadn't stayed to help me, I would have been burned to death by the three thousand flames."
After a long time, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, Cao Ying took back the pen with a chuckle, and then shook her head helplessly.
Tang Zhen said this again in a deep voice, and then Tang Zhenqing dispersed the others, leaving only Xiao Yan and Cao Ying in the back mountain.
"Cao Ying, did you feel it just now?"
Speaking of this, Cao Ying looked at Xiao Yan with curiosity in her eyes and asked.
"That's all, I can only say that your father and I are so lucky. I will never be an alchemist in this life. It will only make me sad if I mention it again."
In this way, Cao Ying leaned in Xiao Yan's arms and explained the changes to the elixir in detail to Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan also seriously studied the knowledge that he had no time to learn before. The relationship between the two naturally gradually heated up during this period.
As a disciple of Xuan Yi, one of the three giants of Dan Pagoda, Cao Ying is very good at improving prescriptions. So far, not many prescriptions have been improved by her hands.
"My father was very obsessed with refining medicine, not to mention he also owned the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire that has been passed down from generation to generation in Burning Flame Valley, so he has been working hard to learn how to refining medicine through various methods." As he said that, Tang Huoer spread his hands helplessly. "It's a pity that my father really doesn't have that talent. He burned countless precious medicinal materials, but his level of medicine refining has not improved at all. On the contrary, his strength is improving faster and faster, which is beyond words."
"Why are you staring at me?"
As she spoke, Cao Ying picked up the pen and pointed it at Xiao Yan, looked at him and smiled slightly.
Who would have thought that Tang Huo'er immediately became excited upon hearing this, pulling Xiao Yan's shoulders and waving back and forth to Tang Zhen.
Xiao Yan didn't hide anything and answered truthfully, which made Cao Ying's mouth twitch.
Xiao Yan was relieved after hearing this and thanked him softly.
"Now you are my husband and I am your wife. It is enough for us to know this fact."
"Okay, I'll trouble you then."
Xiao Yan and Cao Ying had read the prescription for Fire Putan last night. It was indeed effective in curing hidden diseases caused by the backlash of strange fire, but it was obviously not enough for Tang Huo'er.
Judging from the looks of those elders, I'm afraid it won't be that easy if I want to find Xiao Yan again.
"Uh" Xiao Yan's mouth twitched slightly, and then he covered his eyes and replied in embarrassment, "Except for the little medical fairy, it's almost all accidents."
"Cao Ying, thank you."
"She's a woman." Xiao Yan answered immediately, then frowned and pinched his chin gently, "But it should only be biologically female. Internally, she may be closer to a man."
Xun'er took a deep breath of melancholy, looked up at the distant place, her eyes glowed slightly, and what came to mind were the scenes she had spent in the Xiao family, those scenes she had spent with her brothers and sisters. The good times are still unforgettable to her.
Xiao Yan nodded in agreement. At the same time, he couldn't help but think of Boss Yao, who also aimed to become an alchemist at the beginning. Unfortunately, he also had no talent. It can only be said that some things really depend on fate and cannot be forced.
Tang Huo'er's words were so heroic that Xiao Yan and the others couldn't help but feel shocked. If they hadn't known in advance, who would have dared to believe that this was a girl who was about to die?
"What do you regret?"
"What are you thanking me for? I came here to help you." Cao Ying said as she checked the prescription, smiling slightly. "And I've learned a lot from Senior Han Feng during this period. I can take this opportunity to test my learning results." Then Cao Ying sat down and began to modify the prescription with great concentration, while Xiao Yan sat opposite her quietly, waiting quietly.
But to be honest, as Xiao Yan's childhood sweetheart, it was quite embarrassing for Xun'er to be a sister in Xiao Yan's heart, even worse than himself.
"Except for Xiao Yixian, Xiao Yixian is the right one."
Xiao Yan took the ring handed over by Tang Zhen, clasped his fists and said loudly.
Hearing Tang Huo'er's words, Cao Ying's eyebrows twitched, and she whispered in Xiao Yan's ear.
"Let me ask, how many similar accidents have you had?"
While Xiao Yan and Cao Ying were secretly sighing, Tang Zhen looked at the huge medicine cauldron in front of him with regret on his face, and Tang Huo'er hugged his arms to explain to Xiao Yan and the others.
Because Xun'er had concealed her strength and divine bloodline before, the elders of the ancient clan were furious. Xun'er was too lazy to argue with them, so she ran to the confinement place to put herself under house arrest, which was also a way to be quiet, so that the elders would not chatter in her ears all day long.
Before Xiao Yan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Cao Ying.
"You risked your life to enter the star field to save me, but in the end, such a thing happened. I'm really sorry."
After speaking, Tang Zhen turned his head to look at Xiao Yan and handed him a storage ring.
"I'm afraid that Tang Huo'er's hidden illness cannot be cured by this Fire Bodhi Pill."
Looking at Cao Ying's serious and delicate face, Xiao Yan's expression was slightly distracted, and after a while, he asked softly.
"Oh~Is that so." Tang Huoer nodded in understanding, and then her eyes sparkled, "Is the senior you are talking about a man or a woman?"
In Xiao Yan's eyes, Tang Huoer gave him the feeling that he was more and more like Yao Tianhuo, who died so miserably when he broke through to Dou Sheng, but he had no resentment at all, which was simply amazing.
Xiao Yan was just telling the truth. After all, Yao Tianhuo's personality, except for the appearance that could tell that she was a woman, that personality really had nothing to do with women.
And this woman with a stunning face was the ancient clan saint who was brought back a few days ago, Gu Xun'er.
"Improving the prescription is something that even a sixth-grade alchemist can do. Didn't Senior Yao teach you?"
Last time, Xun'er and Xiao Yixian spoke unclearly. Although she was Xiao Yan's sister, it was a bit strange to see Xun'er and Xiao Yixian interacting.
Tang Huo'er looked at the fixed gaze and raised her eyebrows in confusion. Xiao Yan came back to his senses and scratched his face in embarrassment.
Xiao Yan smiled and nodded, Cao Ying's mouth corners also slightly raised, holding up the pill formula and explaining to him the changes she had made one by one.
Xiao Mei, who often pestered Xiao Yan, Xiao Ning, who did not remember and dragged Xiao Yan to the brothel, Xiao Yu, the eldest sister of the Xiao family, who managed her younger brothers and sisters. No matter which picture, Xiao Yan's figure was there.
Last time, I finally met Xiao Yan, but in the end, he was taken back without even saying a word.
"Brother Xiao Yan." Xun'er murmured, with sadness in her eyes, "Xun'er misses you so much" (End of this chapter)
